      Naw, more like a minor problem like having a killer bear on the loose. 80 years ago might have been a serious issue, but it went down like a wimp in the MSQ barely doing anything despite its heinous reputation.
      The combo of being aether deprived + facing One Punch Lamak was too much for it. Having the WoL& the rest as well was a minor bonus added to that lethal combo

    I love how straightforward the premise for Valigarmanda Extreme is. In the story it's established that your party was able to take down Valigarmanda with relative ease because it was aether-starved just after waking up, and you killed it before it had the chance to fully restore its power. So the Wandering Minstrel simply has to ask the obvious question: what would it be like to fight Valigarmanda at full strength?

    The one thing the normal trial lacks compared to the Extreme is the mountain fire tankbuster. It is by FAR the coolest tankbuster we've had in years. It's like the E5S charge buster repeated again and again. The normal trial should have had it at least for a single hit.

    • @joshuayung5158
      @joshuayung5158 2 місяці тому +33

      I know it's not a hard mechanic to take but swapping off as the tank to take those damn cones is why I tank. Lots of tank busters are just an swing of a weapon with extra windup, or a big rock or laser but when they have that extra-heavy impact it's the bees knees. Plus mechanics that actually require us to stand in the front like the line stacks in the add phase.

      Honestly true. When you play FF6 that 16 bit sprite work does not do Valimarganda any justice, even the perspectives given of the Ice Prison in FF14 makes it look smaller than it is. I thought Valimarganda was just gonna be Alte Roit Large Edition, I wasn't actually expecting giant snake god of death.

    One thing I’ve noticed in Dawntrail with trust is that they are a lot more dynamic with how they play.
    For example, in this fight, Alisae no matter what, will get hit by one of the aoe mechanics and complain that there was no way she could’ve seen it coming, then when it happens again, she mentions that she’s ready for it and won’t get tricked again.
    Even when you take her as a trust, she seems a lot more prone to taking a hit or messing up a mechanic, pretty cool trust are being fleshed out more

    @TheUndyingCrystal Місяць тому +4

    People are saying that Valigarmanda was just an easy fight for the WoL, but I really disagree. Out of the entire party who fights with you on Duty Support, Zoraal Ja is the only one who actively acts like this was easy.
    All the Scions with you are pretty visibly winded or at least are glad we managed to overcome the beast. Tural legit lucked out that we happened to be there with a stacked party of some of the most powerful heroes and warriors on the entire star.
    We've already seen that Gulool Ja Ja is strong enough to fight the WoL one on one and actually make us work for it. Zenos and possibly current Estinien are the only other people who could boast that. And considering the spoilers regarding the Dawnservant's health? That's pretty damn impressive.
    So considering that even Gulool Ja Ja had to have help when he faced Valigarmanda down? And that he couldn't defeat it outright and had to seal it away?
    I really don't think we're giving Valigarmanda enough credit there. It might not be Zodiark or Endsinger, but that serpent is clearly stronger than the majority of primals and upper tier beings we've met.

It was tricked into freezing itself 80 years prior to MSQ by Turaal's Dawnservant and his allies after a fierce battle and, after it gets free in story, the Warrior of Light, Wuk Lamat, two other candidates for the Dawnservant position and some members of the Scions slay it before it can regain its full power.
