Hey, Dom from the vid here! Thanks Airi for coming along with us and securing the W! I'll try and expand on the description of the video a bit more if it will help people: First and foremost, this is a very hard fight. This was our 5th or 6th attempt I believe and we were at it for just under 3 hours. Unlike Muraga and Realmscourge there isn't really a set strat or order of things you use and you very much have to make decisions on the fly. Doing this with friends/guild mates where you can communicate helps a lot.You're having to balance keeping yourself alive, keeping on top of adds, and managing your AP. For equipment I believe we all used Save the Queen weapon, Maximillian armor, and bells. Some of us didn't need bells but on a couple of our previous attempts some of us ran dry on AP and on one run we lost to a 1HP mont who had just popped courage due to a lack of AP. So it's worth having as a backup, there isn't really another good TMR to use except for perhaps Keen Blade from Robb's TMR. My Jeume had Jade Blossomblade as both main and sub, Jade Swordmaster + Trick Lancer Lore support abilities, and Fighting Spirit Reaction ability. AGI/HP Truststones You want to take as many Ultos Espers as possible and keep the buff up at all times. We had 3 here because while I have ultros, I'm a lazy bastard and hadn't bothered to clear the quests to be able to level it 😅 Main VC's: Dark Odin, Dark Siren, A2 Holo, Suteki (FFX card) Sub VC's: Hyoh's VC, Hiyru (FF5), Dark Odin, Thanks for the votes. We may have changed one of the sub VC's but that was what was there on the last screenshot in discord. Now for the fight. The key to the fight in my opinion is your use of Spring Shower (Jeume's HP restore buff) Use it too early and you either waste it from being at too high HP, or you run out of sustain towards the end of the fight. Use it too late and you will die. I personally tried to use my first one when I was about 60-70% HP which was about the time we were dealing with Volke. But sometimes mont or the adds will be hell bent on attacking one person so if that's you, use Spring Shower and keep yourself alive. We initially tried to take Mont to the bottom left corner but we about a few tries we felt we were getting overwhelmed by adds coming in and we were getting in the way of each other being able to use certain AoE's like LB. We found the going to the middle, and spreading ourselves out as much as possible worked better as it lessened the damage done to us overall and made it so we could both take out some adds as they spawned while being able to damage Mont/Volke/Oldoa/Kitone. So 2 birds in one stone. If you're taking out adds only use Harvester as it will both one shot them and save you AP. Make sure you save at least 2 uses of Whirling bloom attacks between you as you need them to dispel Mont and Kitone. Just a disclaimer that some of the percentages below may be a bit off. On the first turn, buff with Full Bloom Prayer and stay still. 2 people should then move to the middle in the top left corner while 2 people take out the adds that start behind you and then move to the right. Push Mont to 80%ish and Volke will Spawn. Remove Volke's Reraise with Cross Wither, and inflict healing down with Spring Storm so his auto HP restore does next to nothing, then take him out. If he gets a turn and you've spread out far enough he will hit 1-2 people with a debuff that prevents them from dispelling Mont later. Make sure you take note if you are not one of those people as you have an important job a bit later. Once Volke is dead, use Spring Shower if you need/haven't already. Tidy up adds if they're piling up and push mont to 60%, Oldoa will Spawn, Oldoa isn't particularly dangerous in my opinion but she can inflict some nasty debuffs. Inflict healing down using Spring Storm on her, and take her out. But be careful not to push mont under 50% in the process if he does not have healing down. She does have courage which Jeume can't dispel. Once Oldoa is dead make sure you have Spring Shower up, inflict healing down on Mont. This is important as he will recover 60k HP with no healing down as opposed to 6k which pretty much kills the run (as I found out when I used the wrong ability on him...) Hard focus him and adds at the same time if they are in range. He will restore HP when pushed under 50% and Kitone will spawn at 40%. Both Mont and Kitone will buff themselves with Haste, If Volke's debuff is still active the people who didn't get hit by it will need to remove these ASAP with Whirling Bloom. Kitone isn't very dangerous once her haste is off. I believe you can dispel Monts follow up as well but I'm not 100% sure. Try to focus Mont and adds at the same time and kill him ASAP. He will have courage which you can't dispel with Jeume. Windy Omen which comes from Jeume's sub ability is also useful for lowering his ATK and AGI for more survivability. Once Mont is Dead, Focus Kitone and get the win! I hope the above helps if you do have the same setup as we did. Again it will likely take you a few tries due to the randomness of the fight. I believe this can also be cleared with Ashen Monts with Blood Swords. A few of my guild mates say they got close with using wind units and a healer like Ayaka but if Ayaka dies it's over. So it might be possible to do without needing Jeume/Mont. Overall, it was a really fun fight and I hope Gumi/SE make more of them. I think I've heard enough of Jeume's voicelines for one lifetime though...
@@lookalikafish No worries. Hope it helps! I think we did swap out Hyoh's VC in the sub slot for Two Headed Dragon if I recall correctly for some extra damage limit as well
I love content like this for coop runs. You get an in game title for clearing it and the 50 vis on first clear, otherwise no other drops and just put into the vis contest. We're hoping JP does a good amount of clears w Global so we can hit the needed amount of clears for the better rewards tier.

Thanks Dom! 💪Hydra
Bro this is an awesome write-up. Thanks a whole heap man
@@lookalikafish No worries. Hope it helps! I think we did swap out Hyoh's VC in the sub slot for Two Headed Dragon if I recall correctly for some extra damage limit as well
@imFloorboard while I bet that helped a lil, rng is a bigger factor from what I've experienced.
Wow, amazing job. This is the kind of content that makes me miss this game 😢
thanks. Yeah the challenge is fun. Wish they'd have given us more time for more strats for it.
These missions are insane. Nice content to push actual coop. What are the rewards aside from the chances of being drawn for big visiore rewards?

Does ranked mode nullify the run? Gratz on the W!
Thanks! And no it doesn't.
@airisaiia7340 right on thanks!
... any tips for without jeume? TT
Do you have e ashen mont?
... no TT might try again for pulling@@lookalikafish
The only strats I've seen involve mont or jeume. Iirc there was 1 method using light helena but I don't know the other units
Oooh light helena... I'm still at 120 so I'm nearly there...@@lookalikafish
I think she's likely used for mob killing and healing if necessary but not positive
