[PSO2:NGS] The Most Desperate Dark Falz Solus Rank 2 Clear w/ Bow Braver & Public (Day 1 Edition)

Thanks for reminding me how much I despise this god forsaken quest, SEGA. With whatever you have cooked, I was so glad I manage to clear it with the pubs and make them "partially believe" that I'm not griefing lmao.
Hey there ARKS, another one of those mid bow gameplay from me as usual. Aside from Code Geass fashion collab on 6th June 2024, NGS had also brought us the rematch of Dark Falz Solus in Rank 2. Clad in gold and red tints, DF Solus is really out for blood.
All of its attacks now occur much faster, or even lesser delay. More potential overlaps to catch you off guard, alternate form of its mandatory mechanics, and tons of surprise that await you during its infamous Phase 2 that reeks of RNG and whatnot! As a player branded with the sin of Rank 1 DF Solus Bow Solo Clear that accidentally use Katana's Fearless Attitude to clutch recover PP and not running out on entering the final phase, it's time for me to repent.
What, you want a bow solo footage of this quest? Hah, I only have bad news this time. This fight is so goddamn cancerous for pure bow usage, and considering the class & weapon would be the last to get some major expansion, the best you can hope for is level & gear power-creep in the next 1-2 months.
You gotta be taking unnecessary risks or even breaking your PA sequence to avoid getting combo'd to death. But hey, I think that's just me displaying skill issue as usual. Other Braver players who can show you the stuff can definitely do a lot better. It's Day 1, everyone is testing out stuff, and hope for the best we don't hit the death limit at the worst timing.
So yeah... just... use katana for the majority of his fight and save the other three players some worries, unless you come with team of dependable friends like those that can brag their 10-12 minutes clear. I feel really bad for dragging the party down and showing A LOT of misplays due to exhaustion and underestimation. You three Slayer, Bouncer, and Fighter, take my humble thanks.
My gear is pretty much finalized:
- Winguard Bow/Katana Fatale 4 at around 258%-ish damage amplification.
- My EX Augments combo are Risky Stance, Lively HP Starlings, and Endure Pain PB Gain. I will be using this combo, with better suffix if possible, until the end of NGS. Pretty good synergy for my gameplay, and it really helps getting the PB up fast... for the better or worse lmao. With how many PB I can fling, I should consider going Blastle. Guaranteed damage can be better.
- I also have Codeck Bow/Katana with as much damage resistance I can dump in as possible for face tanking and getting free PB gauge accumulation. Gotta make those damage taken worthwhile.
- All damage related Add-on is at level 20. We lost the Encore Jump abuse, and that's fine I supposed.
