Bay brainstorming session:


"Hmm, we need a powerful attack for this enemy"

"You mean like Ultima that will kill the entire party if they aren't all Sentinal when it hits?"

"No, something worse"

.....10 minutes of silence later.....

"I got it, an attack that hits all of the party, does about 18,000 damage to every member, its also a very fast attack with little build up time, it removes friendly buffs on the party and casts Daze so they canot do anything immediatly after it hits!"

"Too weak!"

"Oh, then lets make it spammable and allow Ultima to be cast directly afterwards, so when Daze lands it a 100% kill ultima afterwards"

18K damage? Have you considered equipping General Belts * to your party? :P It reduces the damage to 12K damage, which is a lot more manageable. 

 

I do use damage reduction, it actually hits me for like 12k or so.  I was factoring the damage without protection.

 

 

I found a nice CP farming spot on the Steppe, I got bored of farming the Eden adamantoise so started farming the baby tortoises, near the Behemoth/megalion-thing fight just up the slope and around the corner is one by a treasure chest, it doesn't move.  Up the hill from that is another by a chest, doesn't move either.  I just ran back and forth between the two (20s run) getting 120k CP for a 2 minute fight.   Nabbed 6 Dark Matter while doing it too and some gold nuggets, how many of the Dark Matters I need for upgrading?

I'll enumerate the items that use Dark Matters for upgrading, so you can do a cross list:

- Procyons Sazh Weapon
- Adamant Bangle
- Power Glove
- Weirding Glyph
- Royal Armlet (But you're bound to have an Imperial Armlet by now)
- Ribbon
