      Adamantoise in FFXV is easy if we have the right equipment and move set. I’ll only take 1-2 minutes to take him down but not that easy for the one in XIII

    This is what I do (non summon) and it takes 2 minutes ...
    Fang/Vanille/Hope
    1) Syn/Syn/Med
    2) Com/Rav/Med
    3) Rav/Rav/Rav
    4) Sab/Sab/Rav
    5) Com/Com/Com
    Start off in 1) and cast haste on everyone, then faithra on vanille and hope, and Bravera on fang. Switch to 2) and targert a leg. As soon as fang stabilizes the guage switch to 3) and stagger. Switch back to 2) and highwind the leg. Repeat the above for the second leg. Once its falls switch to 4) and debuff/debilitate. Once everything is on switch back to 3) and get 999% stagger gauge. Then go to 5) and kill.
    Fang has Genji Glove. The rest of the accessories dont really matter if you are overpowered. For example I have energy sash, speed sash, and twenty sided die so no attack stat boosting accesories. If you are weaker then you are going to need to buff up longer at the start with protectra/shellra, and equip Gaian Rings and Black Belts/Imperial Armlets etc

    @TsukiDesign 12 років тому +2

    You have to "kill" both legs in order for it to fall into the ground, there it can't attack you for a period of time which you can use to buff/heal yourself, Stagger it and then continue attacking her, if she goes back up, you have to then again kill the legs, that's the only way to prevent her stomp attack which does a LOT of damage as you can see.

    @TheLiveGames actually, the adamantortoise do have less health and streangth, but their magic is much higher, so a quake or roar is deadly.
    the most notable asthetic differance is that adamantortoise have broken tusks, wich leads me to beileve, on a fairly irrelevant note that they are the seniors of the adamantoise population.

Before I can cure the daze and finish healing, it fires quake or Ultima again. One time it fired rapid fired Ultima 3 times back to back to kill me. But I'll check out your links!

    OK, here's what I don't get... apparently you can't kill an Adamantortoise if you don't have a Genji Glove equipped. But the only way to get the glove is by killing an Adamantortoise (mission 63). So how can you complete mission 63 when the only way to get the accessory you need to complete the mission is by completing the mission? I'm 160 hours into the game, I've leveled everyone up to 20k HP's or more and I still can't kill the thing. WTF?

    I wonder if this is doable also with Sazh as the party leader, doing Blitz and Cold Blood instead of Highwind. Still, if I can manage to get this far in level and equips, I wouldn't have to swap party leaders each time I fight them Adamanchelids (I use the Daze technique, then again, with such stats, I might not even need to use said technique).

    Just one gripe with this video. Instead of choosing Ruin, Ruin, Ruin etc. every time, just hover over "abilities", hold right and hit the action button. This repeats your previous action of that role, so even if you shift paradigms and go back to Commando, you can still choose your 'previous set of commands' in little more than one button smash.

      If you have enough HP to live through the fight, what does it matter? You get a full heal at the end of every fight in FFXIII. So any fight you live through is good enough. The goal of farming turtles is to maximize gil or items gained per hour spent. If you can do it without wasting a few seconds buffing, that's a good thing.

      Second reply: I hadn't watched the whole video before I replied to you. His technique is sloppy and slow as hell. This is not a good example of a fast turtle smash. So my previous comment, while true in the sense that protect buffs aren't needed, may have been overly defensive of the OP video which is not really fast.
