InkwelderThis team makes the chaos event fairly trivial given a Cloud or Tidus friend (remember to swap on one of Relm's free turns so you get 6 turns with the friend). These 3 are very much a team- changing out any character will result in a different strategy required. The team having 3 framed debuffs is especially nice. They have 6 debuffs total (Serah mbrv and atk down, Relm blind on sketch+) that keep the bosses from getting out of hand. The 170% atk and ~180% mbrv auras/buffs with battery allow the team to continue dealing good damage. Keep in mind later in the battle to kill them close to each other. When 1 dies, you will absolutely need turns for each member to debuff and push off their atk/def/mbrv buffs. Also, these bosses do have high rng, so if you get unlucky with a Multiskewer or Erdgeist's Power, just reset and try it again. I've now run this team comp 7 times, and they've completed each time, needing a reset on 5 of the times. Note that I was very inefficient in wave 4, I should've saved serah's ex for that wave.
Serah- keep her buffs up and the debuffs laid down. I forgot to use her AA around turn 45. Be aware of providing battery on Relm to maximize her HP+ and avoid breaks.
Sherlotta- keep both bosses debuffed with her framed sap buff. Early on, S1 and spam HP+. Refresh it with 1 turn left on the Wurm, into EX. Once at the boss, when there are 2 turns left on her S1 buff, feel free to refresh it, use EX, and use S2. You only need 2 S2s for summon.
Relm- the reason the quest is trivial. She batteries the team constantly. Her 60% aura on all skills is amazing. Her free turns add up and mean you don't have to worry at all about a tight turn count with other team comps. Use her HP+ to battery your team to avoid breaks. Blind is also extremely useful to prevent breaks and keep the team dodging HP attacks (though I didn't need that this run).
Feel free to comment with any questions and I can try to help!

Zidane covers the orb, good at stealing turns to make the tornadoes despawn (gotta take ~15 turns while they are out).
Agrias gives brv gain up for Sabin, also uses faded moly for support and to lock down the tornadoes’ hp attacks.
Sabin caps damage throughout, provides battery to the team, especially before a zidane launch. He delays pande giving more opportunities for zidane’s turn to come near an unbreak so that zidane can score a delete.

The Kefka, Balthier combo works alongside absolutely any damage dealer, but I did try Onion Knight LD and it narrowly missed turns.
All characters have high armor, kefka and ulti stack their tactics debuffs to great heights. use your calls in the last 50% after they cleanse.
Kefka - neuter bosses, they never take a turn, just have to worry about cleansing at 49% and 79% HP
Balthier - sit there, do some damage, and let the damage dealer shine thanks to his amazing auras
Ultimecia - firecracker kamikaze for most of it. During their first set of shields, you'll want to use Maelstroms to recharge your EX, so you don't waste skill uses without damage. Kefka & Balthier can basically break the shield. 2nd shield is utterly shredded since OK BT friend effect is active along with all debuffs stacking.No LD 3 Ingot Heretic CQ run with BanterInkwelder2020-12-17 | Really quick banter bc I'm tired.

Grab friends & have fun with this one- Hop onto Soul's discord too discord.gg/souldffoo ! Onto our setup & strategy: Soul's Ardyn: 108/c50, 2x 65/c50, Rinoa & Arciela spheres My Kain: 3x 108/330, Kain refined & Locke refined spheres Vayne's Maria: 2x 108/330, 108/170, Ardyn refined & Maria spheres
Our Strategy: Everyone brings Odin Summon. Don't summon until enemies are at 50% HP, keep damage even. You're waiting to summon so that Odin's extra ATK boost can help cancel the ~70% BRV DMG reduction once 50% HP hits.
Kain - Open with Gungnir to save the opening break for Ardyn. Use 2 Jumps between 100 - 50% HP, otherwise spam Gungnir & EX. EX charges after 3 skills initially, and then every 2 skills after that. Once at 50%, spam Jump inside of summon always, unless EX is up. Make sure to keep your buffs up, you can Gungnir if you have to. You can use AA before you summon, but generally only if Ardyn's BT effect is up.
Maria - Open with Proper Shot to save the opening break for Ardyn. Arrow Rain after the HP attacks to stay healthy, otherwise spam Proper Shot and use EX when it's up. ALWAYS Proper Shot the launchable enemy after Kain's EX and do this even if your EX is charged, she's the difference maker in the timing and is the X factor of the run.
Ardyn - Get to 5 stacks asap, your party should save breaks for you if possible (it saves time from using an extra AA). Use LD once after 5 stacks, and save the rest for under 50% enemy HP as it will always cap. Be sure to save the extra launch from Kain's EX for Maria, unless you have your EX up or her turn is sandwiched by enemies! Burst between 50-80% HP remaining on both enemies, and Burst after you use EX. Aura - LD - EX - Aura - Aura - BT is the skill order that should be best. Aura is generally best while your BT effect is still up (otherwise it won't cap), and you should opt for Warp-Strike... just watch Soul lolIntroducing Tonberry Troupes Lufenia Research project!Inkwelder2020-09-28 | My new beautiful intro video is thanks to Dreamy & GeoffPlaysGuitar.

Down to Business:

- Artifacts: 65/330, 108/170, 330/garbage
Shantotto: EX+ 3/3 & LD, 8/3 Summon/Char Board, Armor+ 1/3 - Artifacts: 2x 108/330, 330/Debuff ATK Up - Removed Passives (due to CP overage): -- BRV/HP+ Up from Character Board

Brothers Summon to maximize damage from Ultimecia S2, EX, LD, Totto EX & LD
Wave 1:
Ultimecia needs to burst the boss down in the 2nd wave, conserve skills! Open with LD, use S1 to maintain stacks twice, otherwise no other skills used. Always Hell’s Judgment after EX.
Shantotto carries in the first wave. Open with EX into Rage Aero. Spam skills, you can use 2 more Aeros (I only used 1), and save 2 Bios for the last wave as it has very high turn rate and can help jump her turn.
Onion Knight will use 1 Blizzard, and save 2 Multi-Hit for the last wave. Don’t be afraid to BRV+ into HP AttackSummon on the very last turn of Wave 1!
Wave 2:
Ultimecia spams skills non stop. RULE: If on Ultimecia’s last turn before an ally/enemy goes, her LD buff is at 2T remaining, you must use LD. If it is at 3T, you can use any skill, then use EX, free S2, into LD. Dump all your Protean Swords early, keep damage even, and use Protean Swords for launches. As Ulti is spamming skills, her EX will always be charged on her turn! Make sure you ensure that all of her Hell’s Judgment’s are used with the LD buff - that may mean saving AA’s for later.
Shantotto spams also, but managing her is the technically difficult part of the run. Try to save LD until your other skills can’t jump you up and until the last possible moment. If they can jump you up, use a skill first, and always be mindful of enemy iBRV & recovering from break. When enemy has 2.5k BRV in behind their BREAK indicator they will recover from BREAK then. Use AA when enemies are broken to help pull them out of BREAK. Try to always use EX while AA is active!
Onion Knight should maintain his buffs using Multi-hit, being mindful of not jumping turns and stealing ally turns when they are needed. Use Blizzard Combo whenever buffs are up and when you know he can cap (early you can BRV+ into Blizzard Combo until Totto drops imperil). Save 1 AA until after the bosses buff themselves while in red bar.
That’s it! Leave any questions below and good luck :)Sabin Saga #46: Ultimecia LC CHAOS, discussing Ulti, Paine, CQ banterInkwelder2020-08-18 | Chat with us on the MateriaBot discord! discord.gg/XCTC7jY
