Interception is a balanced ability Asetoni FFXV 2021-10-06 | Become a parry god, except even when you fail the parry, you still parry.And magic is even more broken than this.

Weiss - SOLO, NO DAMAGE, No Materia, Hard Mode Asetoni FFXV 2021-07-07 | idk what people are going on about. this isn't a hard boss at all(I'm sorry)

FFVII Remake Demo - Scorpion Sentinel (No Damage/Cloud Solo/Normal) Asetoni FFXV 2020-03-07 | A few notes on the consistency of this challenge:I'm not sure if running behind the rubble is a consistent way to dodge the missiles. This was the first time I actually thought to try that and then I just winged the rest of it from there. I originally had a far more complicated strategy where I ran to the other side of the arena that would spread the missiles out more, but it was still too inconsistent for a number of reasons.I got two rather lucky crits, one with the first fire spell and then again with the braver that broke the first leg in the last phase. These did not impact the outcome of the fight, I built my strategy to not rely on critical hits for obvious reasons. The leg would have broken even without a crit and the fire spell only slightly speed up the second phase.One small source of RNG (the only one if the rubble trick turns out to be consistent) is starting ATB. The first phase strat will fail if you get the absolute minimum amount of starting ATB possible, but ~90% of the time that wont happen.
FFVII Remake Demo - Scorpion Sentinel (No Items/Cloud Solo/Normal) Asetoni FFXV 2020-03-03 | Not the cleanest or fastest fight possible. You can 1 cycle the 2nd phase if you deal enough damage when it's staggered.Chip damage is fucking real in this game. The only moves I didn't block/parry were two basic bullet volleys which deal very little damage anyway. That missile barrage can screw off.

FFXV Episode Gladiolus Critical Mode Commentary Asetoni FFXV 2019-07-14 | Listen to me go through 5 different rants as I beat Episode Gladiolus without using Items or resting at a campsite.For some reason Sharefactory kinda screwed the video quality, but I hope it's not too bad...
FFXV/Comrades: Damage types and immunity piercing Asetoni FFXV 2019-07-09 | Feels good to be making videos again. I hope this wasn't too confusing...
Memory - Final Fantasy XV Asetoni FFXV 2019-06-29 | In memory of this amazing game.Inspired by Nyff's video about Dark Souls 3: youtu.be/_H5C5jK-B2kSong: "Memory" by Direct feat. Holly Drummond
Comrades - Kenny Crow solo, no damage, no DW Asetoni FFXV 2019-03-25 | It can be difficult, but for the wrong reasons. It's obviously a reskin of the CEO fight way back in Mystery Disc. That fight wasn't designed to be hard, so all the moves are extremely slow and obvious and he barely chains two attacks together. As a result, the only way they could make it difficult was to make it do insane damage and give it a healtbar to rival Adamantoise. Kenny has more HP than Ardyn and Ravus combined, let that sink in.However, the CEO fight was also designed to be fought solo, much like Ardyn and Ravus, and this is what makes it difficult for the wrong reasons in Comrades. With 4 people spamming attacks, you cannot see what a boss this small is even doing, so suddenly you just get oneshotted out of nowhere. There's a reason why Bahamut and Ifrit are big, they need to be that way for you to be able to see what they do even with 3 other people there.Anyway, neither of these problems really applied to a solo no damage fight, which is why this was as easy as it was compared to the rest of the bosses.Build: imgur.com/a/EIKMnZIFood: Equalizer
Comrades - MA-X Angelus-0 no damage, no DW Asetoni FFXV 2019-03-25 | Well, I totally forgot this boss existed....
Comrades - The Mystic solo, no damage, no DW Asetoni FFXV 2019-03-22 | Using equalizer here was definitely overkill. I considered doing it again, since this video really doesn't do justice to how fun this boss is, but in the end I still decided to upload this, because it perfectly demonstartes just how stong equalizer + Yagyu Darkrood combo can be.Build: imgur.com/a/6RyN3TuFood: Equalizer
Comrades - The Rogue solo, no damage, no DW Asetoni FFXV 2019-03-22 | I had to mute the music because there are some attacks that require audio cues to dodge.This is probably my least favorite fight in Comrades. Rogue is filled to the brim just bullshit, ranging from broken hitboxes to moves that have no tells. The listening mechanic is drowned out by the music and sound effects if your party is alive. That damn charge attack is pretty much unavoidable if you're on the ground and has no tell whatsoever. The boss has a cool design and I appreciate the intent behind the stealth mechanics, it just failed horribly in execution.Build: imgur.com/a/w6s14s1Food: Equalizer
Comrades: Omega solo, no damage, no DW, no Rampage Asetoni FFXV 2019-03-22 | Rampage just kinda trivializes this fight so I had to ban it. That said, this isn't exactly a fun fight because Omega has only like 5 different attacks, but all the defence in the world, so you're more likely to die of boredom than anything else. The only hard to dodge move is the missile barrage in the last phase that requires some pretty thight perfect barrier blocks and rolls.Build: imgur.com/a/TS8zG5lFood: Equalizer
Comrades - Ifrit solo, no damage, no DW Asetoni FFXV 2019-03-22 | Gutsco kinda carried me here by stuning Ifirt with those Blizzagas. I might return to this and do it without Gutsco at some point, but for now, I've had enough with it. It's a fun fight normalyy, but absolute horror for no damage runs.Build: imgur.com/a/71E8UIm
Comrades - Gilgamesh without touching the ground (solo, no damage, no DW) Asetoni FFXV 2019-03-22 | The episode Gladio version of this boss is one of my favorites in FFXV, but this comrades version is kind of a mess. Gilgamesh was clearly designed for a small arena and to be fought with a slow character that can parry. Doing it like this was still pretty fun, but man, I'd much rather be fighting him in Ep Gladio.Build: imgur.com/a/iNgn1fC
Comrades - Deathgaze solo, no damage, Pulse Bow only Asetoni FFXV 2019-03-22 | Pulse bow is kind of joke, but so is this boss."Build": imgur.com/a/GiySs1P
Comrades - Melusine solo, no damage, Deck Brush only Asetoni FFXV 2019-03-22 | Breaking the snake heads is a top priority, because it prevents her from using her spin attack, which has absolutely no tell. Once they're down, the fight is pretty much trivial.Build: imgur.com/a/05Fern4
Comrades - The Fierce solo, no damage, Squeaky Hammer only Asetoni FFXV 2019-03-22 | Fierce is definitely on the easy side of the bosses, but that's largely because he doesn't have any bullshit moves. It's an incredibly fair fight, though still a downgrade from the main game's version because of the lack of Blink.Build: imgur.com/a/UtKEZbNFood: Equalizer
Comrades - Cerberus lvl 1, solo, no damage, Lucian Saber only Asetoni FFXV 2019-03-22 | Surprisingly, this was one of the harder challenges I did. Without being on level 1 you can kill him in a second, but once you actually have to dodge his attacks, it becomes a challenge. All the fire attacks have loong lingering hitboxes that will hit you if you try to roll, so the only option is to warp out of the way. Warps however do not have instant I-frames so every move has to be predicted. Luckily, the parry was still pretty simple to pull off.Build: imgur.com/a/iBdizzi
Comrades - Final round Bahamut solo, no damage, no DW Asetoni FFXV 2019-03-22 | Still the best fight in all of FFXV. I am a little annoyed about the glitches/changes brought by the standalone version, but it turned out they weren't as bad as I thought. The sword rain can still be avoided with warp spam, though it's not as reliable as runing or rolling used to be.Build: imgur.com/a/F28vvVu
KH2 Cavern of Remembrance - The floor is lava Asetoni FFXV 2019-01-26 | Yes, the video is spliced. I didn't do it in one go. That might have been a fun challenge to try, but Engine Chamber has way too much RNG with enemy spawns etc. that it'd be way too tedious to do.Air Pirate is still MVP tho.
Comrades - Ardyn and Ravus solo, no damage Asetoni FFXV 2019-01-15 | Yes, I know the recording skips slightly at the very start. PS4 does that sometimes, nothing I can do about it, those frames are gone.Build: imgur.com/a/LAN0xtgFood buff: Equalizer
Comrades - How to make a viable Fathers Sigil + Crossbow support build Asetoni FFXV 2018-12-21 | (not clickbait)Edit: Instead of Farming Master Tonberries, a faster method to get Dark Matter is to play the "Menacin Mechs" quest and break the Liches that spawn from the Niduses. Don't kill the mechs all the Niduses and you should have an easy time farming them without loading screens of any kind.Special thanks to SoulOfTheRisingSun for helping me record some of the clips and Anamana for the stream VODs!SoulOfTheRisingSun: youtube.com/channel/UCHlVHAZBuECVEUCUWOiGnpwAnamana!: youtube.com/channel/UCbGV8-jKrfwG5Y9hPoZsJNw?pbjreload=10AnamanaMedia (Twitch): twitch.tv/anamanamedia
Comrades - Dastardly Duo solo, no food Asetoni FFXV 2018-12-20 | Well, the save transfer works now at least...
FFXV Extreme Garuda, no Items/Armiger/Magic/Food/Ragnarok/etc. Asetoni FFXV 2018-12-17 | Restrictions:No itemsNo ArmigerNo magicNo summonsNo character switchingNo party techniquesNo food buffsNo Ragnarok or Vortex weaponsNo Magitek Exosuit (lol)No menu switchingSo at the very start I lure her away so that she wont randomly destroy the pillars with her attacks. I use Cerberus because I’m trying to break her wing, but also take a link strike here and there to take her HP down in chunks.You might have wondered why I don’t take the Cross Chain when she finally falls down. I didn’t forget about it, it’s deliberate. When Garuda has about 75-80% health, she’ll start summoning the plumes and start flying a lot, at 66% health she’ll summon her minions and at 50% she’ll use her ultimate wind attack. This wind attack can do one of three things: 1. If there are less than two pillars left, the fight will end.2. If her minions are alive, they’ll join in on the attack, making it so strong that it will wipe the rest of my party, even if I dodge it.3. If she’s just alone, the attack still hurts, but wont be strong enough to kill the bros.If I had taken the Cross Chain there, it would have instantly pushed her below 50% HP, which would result in her summoning her minions and then instantly doing the ultimate before I can kill them, wiping my whole party. The whole point of breaking her wing was to burst her down from above 75-80% HP to below 66%, skipping her flying phase where I can’t lure her away from the pillars. It is also beneficial to get past this portion of the fight as fast as possible so that there is less time for her to destroy the pillars.The minions are weak to light and greatswords, so Sarah’s Shortsword’s normal attacks and Hyperion link strikes deal with them pretty quickly. At the 50% mark, I I-frame through the ultimate with Trident’s warp strike and then the fight is pretty much normal, she can fly freely now, but it’s not as bad because she can no longer destroy pillars. I still need to destroy the plumes, because if left unchecked, she seems to gain a buff to her resistances and damage (this actually happens later in the fight after the second set of minions, but it luckily doesn’t last long).At 33% HP she summons minions again, but they’re easily dealt with. After this is over with, I break her second wing, because when she reaches about 10-15% HP, her final phase will begin, which is brutal. I burst her as low as possible to make this phase as short as possible. In the final phase she just flies and it’s only a matter of hitting her with Sarah’s and trying not to die.But did I die? Almost. My last hit lands simultaneously with her killing blow, but since the fight ends there and then, the death didn’t have time to happen. After all, technically Noctis doesn’t die until the window for using a phoenix down has expired. I just didn’t need a phoenix down. I win :D

FFXV: Ignis guide Asetoni FFXV 2018-02-20 | An in-depth look at how Ignis’s combat system works in FFXV.List of acronyms used for his attacks:FO: Fire OpenerF: Single basic Fire attackF-: 2+ consecutive Fire attacksFE: Fire combo EnderD: Directional attack (fire)I: Ice attackIE: Ice combo EnderT: Thunder attackTE: Thunder combo EnderC: CounterstrikeAll of the attacks listed above increase both ice and thunder counters by +1, with 4 exceptions:1. F- only gives +1 despite consisting of multiple attacks2. D doesn’t increase either counter at all, unless both counters are 03. IE brings the ice counter back to 0, but still gives +1 to thunder4. TE brings both counters to their maximum value, which is 4 for ice and 8 for thunderBoth counters reset to 0 if you stop attacking. This includes things like getting hit or dodging. You have to dodge with “D” if you want to evade damage while keeping the combo going.If ice counter is 0-3, Ignis will do a “I”, if it’s 4, Ignis will do “IE”. However, “IE” can only happen after “I”, “F” or “F-“, which means if you just did any other attack, it’s possible to do “I” when the counter is 4.If thunder counter is 0, Ignis will do the version of “T” that leaves him next to the enemy. If it’s 1-5, he’ll do the version of “T” where he dashes through the enemy. If the counter is 6 or 7, he’ll do “TE”. If the counter ever reaches 8, thunder attacks become entirely unavailable, until you reset the combo by stopping attacking.If some of this is unclear, feel free to ask in the comments below :)
Science Fantasy XV - Do some outfits increase attack speed? Asetoni FFXV 2018-02-07 | A small experiment on whether outifts that "allow the user to move more freely" increase attack speed.

FFXV: Comrades - Version 1.1.0 Balance Changes Asetoni FFXV 2017-12-15 | Sorry if my voice sounds weird in this one. I was a little sick when I recorded it.Source for the explosion clip: youtube.com/watch?v=5gD_TL1BqFg&t=40s
FFXV: Comrades movesets - Phase counters Asetoni FFXV 2017-12-11 | Damage modifiers:Katanas: 0.98 (first hit), 1.1 (second hit)Maces: 1.75Spears: 0.99Daggers: 0.55 (both hits)Shields: 2.4Crossbows: 0.54Shurikens: 0.75Note: These are rough estimates, and especially the value for shurikens is merely a wild guess. Phase counters cannot be tested on Practuar, which makes testing their damage modifiers accurately very time-consuming and controlling other factors such as distance to the enemy becomes borderline impossible. These numbers should only be used to gauge roughly how powerful these attacks are.
FFXV: Comrades movesets - Maces Asetoni FFXV 2017-12-10 | There are currently two known maces with a unique moveset modifier:Ironskull Hammer/Dreadnaught - Supercharge Strike youtu.be/r8OAjiv5lnYCombo chart: imgur.com/a/X8kNDDamage modifiers for all mace attacks attacks:Combo opener: 3.85 - 9.7Combo opener (Left stick forward): 3.5Basic combo: 1.39 (while spinning), 2.05 (mace hit), 4.18 (Ender)Forward attack: 3.5 (normal hits), 4.18 (Ender)Side attack: -Backwards attack: 2.05Charge attack: 1.40 (first two hits), 1.75 (last hit)Savage Swipe: 2.83*Clearout: 1.05* (While spinning), 1.44* (last hit)Supercharge Strike: 3.75 - 11.5** (Both hits)Aerial attack: 1.75Warp strike: 0.42 (warp), 0.84 (followup bash)* these attacks always crit, so effectively the damage modifier is double of what is listed here.** Fully charged Supercharge Strike is too powerful to be tested on Practuar. I can't make it not hit the damage cap. This is a rough estimat based on damage I do to normal enemies, but there is a lot of room for error.Estimated error: +/- 0.03 All of these are for individual hits. If some attacks deal damage twice, their modifier is effectively double of what is listed here.If you think some of these numbers are wrong or want to know how I got them, ask in the comments.
FFXV: Comrades movesets - Shields Asetoni FFXV 2017-12-08 | There are currently no known shields with special movesets.Damage modifiers for all shield attacks:Combo opener (close range): 0.60Combo opener (long range): 0.60Basic combo: 0.60 (first hit), 1.2 (second hit), 2.4 (third hit)Shield charge: 0.48Charge attack: 2.88Savage Swipe: 2.50*Clearout: 1.46Aerial combo: 1.2Warp strike: 0.48* these attacks always crit, so effectively the damage modifier is double of what is listed here.Estimated error: +/- 0.02All of these are for individual hits.

If some attacks deal damage twice, their modifier is effectively double of what is listed here.For ranged attacks, damage modifiers are from point-blank range.If you think some of these numbers are wrong or want to know how I got them, ask in the comments.
FFXV: Comrades movesets - Crossbows Asetoni FFXV 2017-12-05 | There are currently no known crossbows with special movesets.Damage modifiers for all crossbow attacks:Basic combo: 0.136 (normal shots), 0.172 (last shot)Charge attack: 0.30 - 0.98Savage Swipe: 0.42*Clearout: 0.14*Aerial attack: 0.136Warp strike: 0.49* these attacks always crit, so effectively the damage modifier is double of what is listed here.Estimated error: +/- 0.02All of these are for individual hits.
