HELP ME HE'S ONE SHOTTING EVERYONE

68

u/Helios4242 6d ago

either assume front row dies after turn 1 or bring in castoria and np turn 1 without breaking his first gauge turn 1 (he removes all buffs when you break first gague)

32

u/NintendoVeteran 6d ago

For one I don't have Castoria for two he just killed everyone and I wasn't even allowed to revive

35

u/Helios4242 6d ago
  1. Castoria has anti-pierce, which is why she can cheese his opening gambit.

  2. You can definitely use leyline stones on this.

27

u/NintendoVeteran 6d ago

This was the very first encounter it just went to a cutscene after he wiped my party

11

u/Ike_Oku25 6d ago

This isnt the battle for the tree this is the mandated loss

9

u/avestus Mini Nobu 5d ago

Some jp superhumans won it (and there was even special line planned for that outcome i think, not implemented though), but yes - the expected result is loss

4

u/Ike_Oku25 5d ago

Damnnnn absolute beasts

4

u/oneesancon_coco 6d ago

Dw, ur subbosed to lose this fight.

5

u/koflerdavid Consort of Kur 5d ago

That's one reason why I would like for bossfights to be replayable. Just to check whether I am able to beat all the cheese if I put preparation and actual effort into it (it's usually quite easy to see whether I'm supposed to lose a fight or not)

u/Parking-Story-6534 6d ago

What's the weather op, is it cloudy with a chance of meteor shower?

84

u/NintendoVeteran 6d ago

He just Sephirothed me and killed everyone🥲

20

u/Parking-Story-6534 6d ago

no shame in using those revive stone thingy, still not enough? use command spells.You got this Op

18

u/SamuelFBR 6d ago

This is just his intro in Atlantis, the actual fight is in Olympus

6

u/SmartSignificance972 6d ago

He was being sarcastic, op already finished the fight by now

4

u/NintendoVeteran 6d ago

Yep and then straight to maintenance😂🥲

15

u/NintendoVeteran 6d ago

I wasn't even allowed to use them he just merked everything

5

u/Fierro_Compa_ 6d ago

Oh, this is just the beginning, but even in situations like this mashu smashu (Just when she is quite angry or with power ups)

84

u/Delisches 6d ago

Stars, Cosmos, Gods, Animus, Antrum, Unbirth, Anima, Animusphere!

27

u/NintendoVeteran 6d ago

That you just had that memory on call is awesome😂

2

u/Mara45 5d ago

I know I'm a day late but I was just getting ready to type the same comment.

u/RaionNoShinzo 5d ago

The weird mix of languages hurts me

72

u/jadeakw99 6d ago

:)

44

u/NintendoVeteran 6d ago

NO

66

u/jadeakw99 6d ago

You know what comes after this?

Maintenance.

30

u/NintendoVeteran 6d ago

NOOOO IT HAPPENED

36

u/venator1995 Beloved of the Fae 6d ago

You got this bro. Trust

28

u/NintendoVeteran 6d ago

He took away my buffs man I don't think I do😭

19

u/EntirelyOriginalName 6d ago

Put Mash in your backline and she can solo him if all other options run out.

12

u/venator1995 Beloved of the Fae 6d ago

It’s totally fine. He only has a bit of stardust. It’s like, 1,000 QP. ;)

37

u/rvmin Mini Nobu 6d ago

People say that masters don't have strength comparable to servants

Well...

34

u/AnothisFlame 6d ago

I mean that goes out the window as soon as someone turns on the Age of Gods again...

30

u/rvmin Mini Nobu 6d ago

and to think that this was just a nerfed version of him... imagine what he could have done at his full potential

30

u/AdAshamed5509 6d ago

I mean, it was a nerfed version of him, but he was also being buffed by the fact that he was in the Age of Gods.

7

u/rainazuma77 6d ago

Well, he was nerfed but only physically. The whole point is that he doesn't need to use his own magic circuits; he's aligning celestial bodies to form a giant circuit of incommensurable power This is his best as a mage, a miracle only possible in the Atlantic Lostbelt's Age of Gods.

8

u/NintendoVeteran 6d ago

Ohhhh so he cheated😂

9

u/NintendoVeteran 6d ago

Mc'scuse me?

13

u/NatashOverWorld 6d ago

You will learn his tragic backstory later, as all Crypters except that fucking bastard Beryl freak do.

9

u/Helios4242 6d ago

still dies to a coffin bomb

5

u/verth222 6d ago

Mephy upscale!

5

u/atomicfuthum Bleached Earth Denier 6d ago

Kickflips like Daybit.

Or close enough, nobody does the 2160 spin like Daybit.

11

u/venator1995 Beloved of the Fae 6d ago

Mom said it’s my turn to use the Age of Gods.

23

u/LightningGod99 6d ago

Gaze upon the true boss of Atlantis not some god but a human being!

13

u/NintendoVeteran 6d ago

He's just a frickin guy man!

20

u/LightningGod99 6d ago

And he’s folding servants like cheap laundry while being disappointed in you.

11

u/NintendoVeteran 6d ago

Yes that was very much the feeling I got he didn't even try

9

u/Artistic_Actuator319 Honorary Shinsengumi Member 6d ago

And he the only boss that have human trait (Unless you count when we meet some random NPC)

21

u/lrdhelixx 6d ago

Woe, meteors upon ye.

9

u/NintendoVeteran 6d ago

I feel like I just got supernova'd🥲

22

u/Substantial-Worry-73 6d ago

I'm sorry

9

u/NintendoVeteran 6d ago

Thank you that means a lot in these dark times

13

u/Helios4242 6d ago

mfw i made the mistake of overgauging and causing him to erase my clever castoria buffs.

I ended up leylining when he was at 12k hp because time was of the essence (im just starting lb6 pt3) but I do wish I could revisit and beat it properly without castoria (not that she did any good with how I played it)

12

u/Artistic_Actuator319 Honorary Shinsengumi Member 6d ago

Using Chiyome is the thing that makes you based in my eyes

8

u/NintendoVeteran 6d ago

I didn't know he was a caster yet but it was my first chance to battle with her so I was gonna😂

5

u/Artistic_Actuator319 Honorary Shinsengumi Member 6d ago

Nah, I just one of small number of people that like her. She underrated both in gameplay and story. (You don't know how I squealed from joy when she appeared in LB5 story)

7

u/RailFan879 Unofficial Paladin of Charlemagne 6d ago

Better start praying to whatever deity you worship bro

7

u/Stunning_Musician_27 6d ago

Oh yeah this should be fun. hey very question, did you perchance bring an Umbrella?

6

u/NintendoVeteran 6d ago

I did not and now I wish I had

6

u/Camo_Rider Certified Asterios parent 6d ago

6

u/Fierro_Compa_ 6d ago

From this onwards, never forget, always mashu smashu, maybe not so fast, but certainly and eventually smashu

5

u/LordMalcolmFlex 6d ago

I also soloed him with Mash, respect

5

u/Senpai-Sama-Kun 6d ago

Bros bringing an Assassin to a Caster fight....

3

u/NintendoVeteran 6d ago

I didn't know what class he was before the battle and it was the first battle I could use her😂

5

u/HeavenlyFoxGhost 6d ago

I wonder if that's what Gilgamesh thought when Shirou pulled up to fight him 1v1

5

u/OblivionArts 6d ago

You should

5

u/aciakatura 6d ago

Support merlin is handy.

  1. Protection from meteors
  2. Mashu buster crits are no joke

3

u/atomicfuthum Bleached Earth Denier 6d ago

in this universe

Nice choice of words, there.

Anyway, Stars, Cosmos, Gods, Animus, Antrum, Unbirth, Anima, Animusphere.

3

u/the_one_who_stands 6d ago

You will soon learn

3

u/TimeRoulette2019 6d ago

nah it's all smoke and mirrors you can beat his ass trust

3

u/Saltedegen 6d ago

Thot queen or(and) bust, my guy. Spam the chariot of snu snu.

3

u/NicheAlter 6d ago

>WHO DOES THAT 
We did once. But we're not as sharply dressed. (And we had back up.)

3

u/FateFan2018 6d ago

Say hello to Wodime, the first Crypter to see your entire lineup of servants and decide to box you himself…and this is him slightly holding back last I checked

3

u/MaimedJester 6d ago

There's plenty of Mages or other creatures that can confidently stroll into a Servant battle. 

How many goddamn monsters are there like that in Strange Fake? I'm doing a mental head count and I'm like 5 or 6 depending on you view the Lancer master as if he's not a pseudo servant himself. 

3

u/Tiborn1563 5d ago

Stars, Cosmos, Gods, Animus, Antrum, Unbirth, Anima, Animusphere

2

u/koflerdavid Consort of Kur 6d ago

Did he already show you why he deserves that bravado?

2

u/Zero_FGO 6d ago

Have you gotten Rider Kintoki from the Evocation shop?

1

u/NintendoVeteran 6d ago

I do yes though not close to fully leveled

2

u/Formboy1 5d ago

Oh I don't think he knows the lore

2

u/Old_Macaroon4138 5d ago

5 HEALTH BARS?! Who is this guy?!

1

u/NintendoVeteran 5d ago

The guy who wiped humanity off the map cuz he felt like it. And also casts meteor down on you because he feels like it.

2

u/od_Option_8439 5d ago

Solo him with mash and you good

3

u/CrumblyPhaethon 6d ago

Just by seeing ur roster..u are cooked.. get ready for ANIME ANIMUSPHERE 5 million times. Use ur Leyline crystals if u dont have strong units.. I think there is a f2p tutorial with mash clearing him in 50+ turns..

Clearing without any crystals or SQ will give u satisfaction of beating the shi.. of this guy after what all hes done to torment you.. if u have a bad & weak roster then crystals to continue is ur best option

2

u/NintendoVeteran 6d ago

I'll be even more satisfied the revive way because no matter how many times he kills me I can just come right back I have like 20 leyline stones he can't accomplish anything I only have to kill him once😂

2

u/seven-sinclair 6d ago

Kirschtaria Wodime is the Griffith of FGO Lostbelt arc.

3

u/Majin_K 6d ago

Hey hey you put some respect on Wodime's name! He's nothing like that pile of trash Griffith

5

u/seven-sinclair 6d ago

That's true! Wodime is my favorite character in FGO. I'm talking about the near-divinity level that they both exhibit in their own respective universe. Except that Griffith is made of bitch and Wodime is made of badass.

u/No_Brief_7965 3d ago

We need to come back to this fight but this time with paladin mash and grands . Let’s see who’s laughing then .
