Now I’m imagining Kuja getting hit by Beatrix’s Shock, getting up, smirking at the fallen party, flying off on the Silver Dragon, flying a lap around the sky before joining up with the party for the next random battle 😂
I'm used to "solo character" runs meaning, that every other character uses all their turns to suicide as fast as possible, so they won't work as a meat shield, since that's very much not solo. Other than that, cool run!
Kuja is straight up my favorite ff villain of all time. Such an amazing and complex character that really doesn’t get the credit he deserves. I really hope they continue to iron out the bugs of using him as a character in later updates too. If my PC wasn’t packed away into boxes at the moment while I’m trying to move I would absolutely be looking up how to do this 😂😂 I will need to boot up my emu when it’s unpacked and hit up dissidia 012 as well lol
@@sakuram69 - I totally agree 100%! Kuja has always been my favorite villian in the entire series (next to Emet-Selch of FF14) and I love that other people appreciate him and his arc 🔥🔥🔥
@ right?? And don’t even get me started on Emet lol shadowbringers destroyed me. I never wanted my PC to lose a fight more. I mean… he wasn’t wrong. He made perfectly valid points that are damn hard to argue against. I just disagree with his approach and methods but I sympathized so hard. The only time I cried harder was in 16, but let me tell you that 5.0 and 5.3 were a really close tie. As for Kuja… that poor child. I mean, knowing everything, especially knowing he was made as a type of beta project to be discarded… I honestly cannot say I wouldn’t have reacted exactly the same way. I could not imagine the depths of that kind of despair. His only parental figure would never recognize him as a person and everything he did was for a twisted sense of approval. His redemption at the end though gets me every time. He finally figured out he needs to live for himself and do what he feels is right only at the very end of his life. I mean, I love almost all of the ff villains, but ff9 is very special to me and Kuja resonated with me for some reason and I just really felt his story the most. I could talk about the wonderful complexity of some ff villains for literal days lol
it's literally included in the MoguriMod. You can play as Lani or Beatrix if you want. just click and install. nothing you need to know about modding. I just wish they added garland playable. that's something im just gonna do myself some day when i got time.
To me I loved the summoning of Anima and Bahamut in FFX, when I first played FFX on PS2 and saw them summoned and their overdrives, bloody chills was given to teen me
Diabolos in FF8 one of my faves, just the aesthetic and the noise when he pulls down the orb, sounds like its breaking the sound barrier, then the bats and demon sounds after 😩
@@Khaos87NG Same. My favorite summon from the whole entire series I think, I just love his character design and aesthetics too much. Bahamut’s design from FFIX is my second most favorite.
Adversity is probably just meant to be a cosmetic bonus, since you're playing a mod that makes Kuja playable, simulating his healthpool from his bossfight is a fun little touch.
The Octogon Rod isn’t available until Mt. Gulug opens up. Esto Gaza sells only Mythril equipment until then to prevent you from getting those other items early.
Trance increases each time you get hit but the damage taken doesn't matter. Higher spirit stat makes the trance bar fill faster because the random portion of the formula takes a number between 1 and the spirit stat.
I think my favorite summon is Knights of the Round from FFVII, just for the sheer ridiculous level of dunking on enemies and Squaresoft (I think they were still Squaresoft then?) saying, "Lookit dese sick graphiiiiiiics we can do now and how long we can make summons!"
@@reallyshel "Yo, gamers, lookit dese sick graphiiiiiiics we can do now! We made KotR three hours long now! Woooo! Make Cup Noodles while you wait" -Squeenix, probably
I always forget what a boss rush the end of IX is. Im glad it's not some hyper easy thing too. Usually quite the trial unless you grind a ton and get everything.
My favourite summon is the Delta Sisters in Final Fantasy X. There is a pattern to their battle actions, which had me get up to triggering them doing their ultimate attacks 2-3 times in a row. Yojimbo is a close second. I liked him so much that I kept track of every bribe and the result for more than 100 battles.
I still have a soft spot for Bahamut in FF7 (the base one, not Neo or Zero.) It was his first 3d appearance, and even though the graphics of the game haven't aged terribly well, every time I summon him I still get a flash of the same delight a much younger me had all those years ago.
favorite summon: valefor. only summon i used throughout the story my first time through and taught pretty much everything it could learn. any boss that didnt banish aeons got taken out by valefor
Favourite FF summon by far is the FF9 Atomos cutscene. Just this huge Lovecraftian monster breathing in and sucking everything into the void really tickles my pickle. I always wanted to make warlock in DnD based off of it.
for late game stuff that's reaching damage cap, adversity would act as a massive buff to your survivability. normally you cap at 9999 hp and enemies can do 9999 damage. with adversity the cap will still be 9999 damage but you can have 10x health.
I don't think I can bring up an absolute favourite summon across the entirety of the FF series but I really did love a lot of the summons in nearly every title for different reasons lol. FF6 (the best) had so many it was awesome to see what one I could get next. FF 7 had the beginning of 3D for the series so there was that ground breaking title, FF8 (black sheep to me) had some unique ones like FF6 but I loved how Bahumet got different versions which was crazy to learn at the time but Shiva I will forever associate with Squall and if I ever play it again I will always have her junctioned to him. FF9 has to be Alexander, Bahamut and Arc and also Madeine for a 4 way tie I'm afraid
my only reccomendation for the memoria mod manager is switching combat to turn based instead of atb, don't have to worry about getting attacked while you're scrolling the menus
Favorite Summon from Final fantasy? Either Zodiark or Exodus from FF12. Even though FF12 is far from my favorite final fantasy, the Espers from that game were very flashy and had a pretty decent side lore to the game.
Call me vanilla, but I gotta go with the Knights of the Round from FF7. 13 year old me was blown away because I didn't care for summons at that point, and it made me explore the rest of them.
in regards to the favorite summon question, it's probably Leviathan. and I can't put my finger on WHY but...I like the FF8 versions of Ifrit, Leviathan and Bahamut more than any other versions of those summons.
Flare doing more than Mega Flare or Flare Star is very normal if you only have 1 Garnet/are fighting an opponent that isnt a very high level. Flare Star will virtually always be weaker, but it hits groups and ignores defenses at least. Also, Silent Claw is so strong because of Absorb Strength most likely. Tiamat enhances his own strength each time he uses it while lowering yours. The longer the fight, the stronger he buffs himself.
For me it's Shiva in almost every Final Fantasy (10 is my favorite though as I can control her). Every time I used her, nothing stood a chance. She hit so many times in a row and did max damage she was a true monster, a beautiful monster but still.
I am not 100% certain but if I remember correctly the trance bar gain in FFIX is not affected by how much damage you take only that you take damage. So my guess is that the point with adversity is to play into the fantasy of playing as a boss character without completely breaking the game.
Imagine if you got a time machine and told me young me completely mind blown by FFIX on the original PSX that in the future it would be possible to play as Kuja
Definitely playing the grind down lol, 54000$ that early in the game lol definitely writing this for our entertainment, this man can breeze through till disk 3 without any issues
As strange as it is seeing Kuja in the party, it's stranger seeing 2 people fight black waltz 1. Kuja said Oeilvert wasn't his sort of place. He wasn't lying. Diablos from FF8 is my favourite.
Would you consider a World of Final Fantasy challenge run? - Fave summons - FFVII Bahamut Zero is my favourite summon Sephiroth - World of Final Fantasy Shiva - I don't remember one I don't like FFVII Ifrit is what I picture whenever I think of Ifrit, but I appreciate FFX
Damage has not actual effect taken. When you're hit, your gauge fills between 1 and your max spirit stat. And that number fills the bar. High Tide ensures that the number is always the max amount.
Adversity probably DOESN'T help with trance, because the amount of dzmage you take actually DOES NOT impact the amount of trance you receive. Each time you take damage from an enemy attack, your trance gauge goes up by a random amount between 1 and the character's Spirit. (High Tide takes away the randomness and makes it always go up by the character's Spirit).
I havent seen or played this mod but im guessing kuja is also still the pre end game warm up boss? If so they should of swapped this one for zidane, as there is that moment in the og where zidane i could of been the same in your shoes
He probably can considering ultima 1shots everything. Also kuja is the best villain in the franchise, the first one to accomplish his goals which are destruction of the world(terra) and destruction of all life itself(in memoria when he ultima's the crystal)
Nah, he is lame. In any case, the first ones to accomplish their goals are Chaos (who managed to resurrect in an eternal loop) and Kefka. Even Ultimecia manages to compress time in her reality.
@SeventhheavenDK kefka failed in both of his goals. Destroy the world=failed Eradicate all life=failed 0/2 loser antagonist. Kuja straight up did a 2/2
Might get alot of hate for this but my favourite summon has to be odin for ff8 the 1st time he came on to the screen after beating him just to chop 3 enemies in half was an awesome moment that has always stuck with me 😅
My favorite summon is ff9s version of alexander for the visuals and bad @$$ery, but bahamut the dragon king and anima are also awsome, one cause i like dragon and well anima is just another level yet despite her being dark it doesn't come from evil or hate but pure pain
FF7 : Phoenix, FF8: Leviathan, 10: Anima, 15: Ramah. 9 and 16 I haven't decided. Haven't seen them all for 16 and 9 ... eh.. they're all just okay. IMO.

Kuja being an asshole of a brother but still a brother for Zidane
Favorite summons are Quetzalcoatl, Shiva and Ifrit from FF8. I love the quick scenes, the designs and the sound effects

And doesn't High Tempo make your Trance increase by the maximum amount?
@Dimumouto it's High Tide, but yes it makes it select the highest value available.
Kuja only has 3 attacks. Demi, Thundaga, Flare Star. He only uses Flare Star if all characters alive have reflect. So he’ll only spam the other two.
My favorite summon is probably the Magus Sisters in FFX. Also love the run. Kuja is my favorite FF villain so I was just waiting for it.
My guess is one of the next challenges is solo Lani, you were showing an axe in equipment in Lindblum
My favorite summon is Diabolos in FF8
my favorite summon would have to be Valefor from FFX (in response to the question posed in the video)
Valefor is really cool 👍
Anima because I'm edgy 😈
Valefor appreciation society
20:38 - 20:48 had me scratching my head hahaha. I don't mean to make fun however! Thanks for the great content, as always!
Beatrix just being that big thorn in the side.
A fun video, good work
Regardless of damage hits increase teance bar by a number between 1 and your spirit stat. High tide makes it the max number every time.
Favorite summon is Anima. Creature design, backstory, abilities and overdrive. All so good!
I would say either alexander or arc, their aesthetic kicks all kinds of ass, who doesnt love giant robots

Can't wait to watch what shenanigans are about to happen in this video!
Such a cool run and mod! Thank you for this ^^
Also, seeing FF9 Ultima made me really miss DFFOO. Loved Kuja in that mobile game. I only even got into FF mobile games, but that one was my favorite.

I always knew Beatrix could solo Kuja
Looking forward to the "Blank Only" challenge run... I always liked his visor, and willingness to sacrifice anything for the good of his mates.
I still have a soft spot for Bahamut in FF7 (the base one, not Neo or Zero.) It was his first 3d appearance, and even though the graphics of the game haven't aged terribly well, every time I summon him I still get a flash of the same delight a much younger me had all those years ago.

Favorite summon.. ah! Ultima from 12. The clockwork Angel with the giant cannon is just really cool to me.
Favorite summon for me is Alexander, its design and element are really cool to me.
Second place goes to Diablos from FF8.
Lani!? Omg im so glad im subbed
honestly my favorite one for a while was Fenrir (Millenial Decay) and the Sildra, and then Mist Dragon
Madeen and Ixion are pretty cool, but I've ALWAYS loved Alexander pulling up and laying a barrage of holy missiles in FF8
Favourite summons are Anima and Alexander (FF14 version although I love the FF9 cutscene as well).
FF 9 might be an often overlooked entry, but I also think it might be my favorite!
played FF7 OG recently, amazing game, but I still prefer FF9 :D will always be my favourite, maybe cuz it was my first one almost 25 years ago :D
Favorite summon of all time is Anima from FFX. Just love the lore and design of her. Not to mention that overdrive of hers.....
Can’t wait for Kefka on FF6
Kefka vs Kefka 😂 overkill
Fell in love with anima at the age of 7, its the goat
Nice run! It would be possible to do a FF 8 Seifer only run?
for late game stuff that's reaching damage cap, adversity would act as a massive buff to your survivability. normally you cap at 9999 hp and enemies can do 9999 damage. with adversity the cap will still be 9999 damage but you can have 10x health.
I would kill for a game from Kuja's perspective, especially when he was first send to Gaia.
Me too, it’d be really interesting. It’s unfortunate that FF 9 is often overlooked.
That depends if he CAN still USE Flare Star/Ultima yourself even if its limited to 9999 damage to EVERYTHING then hell yes its easily doable.

I really like Carbuncle, since I missed it in FF7 and FF8. Its not an optional summon in FF9 sonI finally got it!
