Shelke's been legend dived forever.
Got Hades down at 32 seconds. With only a single 3* holy magicite, that's an easy sub-30 once I farm up those sweet Evraes, or I could play with soul break timings for some optimization. In the end, it's a frustratingly fun fight – I tinkered with a few teams that I knew were all close to victory, but ended up choosing something more conservative and from there it was just about timing the dispel.
Team was:
TG Cid with USB, OSB, and instant + 2 instant turns SSB – Assault Saber, Healing Smite
WoL with 1.0 Chain, BSB (en-holy), and OSB finisher – Protecta, Assault Saber
Shelke – Wrath/Entrust bot, of course
Onion Knight USB – Wrath, Affliction Break (made this ability just to be conservative)
Iris with BSB – Shellga and instant-cast cures for the SB gain
Was surprised to see just two DPS and an Entrust bot manage to nearly sub-30.
Onto Siren! Time to farm 8 Evraes and then???
Tentative team of:
TG Cid with USB, etc stuff
Sephiroth with USB, glint
Garland with 1.0 chain
Onion Knight with USB
Some USB healer
Still need to create/hone abilities. All my physical darkness stuff is free R1 stuff.
PS – 33 draw was largely a bust @ 4/33: Reynn USB might be good for the 5* magic ice magicite? Mog USB is awkward. Cinque BSB might be decent in Type 0 Torment? Lightning BSB2 is a worthless dupe.
PPS – pulled on the Lucky Draw too, because half-priced pulls are hard to pass up. Went 5/11 with 2 discos, but the disappointment was real. Two dupe Cloud USB2 (makes a good +wind stat stick, I guess?), 2 dupe Cloud LMR, and dupe Bartz LMR. I guess that qualifies me for a lot of rainbow points and they don't totally stuck at stat sticks?
