ActStriker thanks for the detailed reply! Unfortunately I lack the chain so I can't really replicate that :/
Any Earth chain at all?

Finally started the 5* magicites, and KB down. Thanks to Chronobeej for the setup. Can do it in around 40s right now.
Yes, just don't get her LM2 (edit: the lower left part is also pretty skippable). The extra stats are always helpful, specially since with her USB2, you will be using her a lot.After putting it off for so long, I finally joined the 5* Magicite club. Got Famfrit down in about 35secs~
Also got Jecht's EnDark LMR from the daily draw today. 👍
Question: Is Rosa (w/ USB2) worth Legend diving for the healing boost, even though her LM1 and LM2 are awful? Please advise.
That's what I thought. I don't have it in me to not finish a dive though, so shitty LM2 here we come!Yes, just don't get her LM2 (edit: the lower left part is also pretty skippable). The extra stats are always helpful, specially since with her USB2, you will be using her a lot.
I would advise (if you haven't) pull on FF14. There are no events for that realm in the near future.
You can get it from the Book of Trials Vol. 8 if you haven't already picked a BSB from there.
Is that Ignis I see, War? For shame! But seriously, pretty impressive. How many are left?
As it was pointed out to me earlier, you need to pray and hope for stacks of ice imperil to maintain your gauges otherwise you lose that little bit of gauge that's needed for Elarra USB. Need to have Elarra with a gauge basically at all times once the chain is up. Positioning is key as the 3 center characters take extra damage.
Bartz SSS+SSS /LMR+LM2/ Spellblade damage - AASB
Celes SSS+Dispel / LMR + LM2/ Lionheart - Chain, then AASB
Onion Wrath + Entrust / LM1 + LMR / DMT - pUSB
Elarra Curada + Shellga / LM2 + LMR / MM - USB1
Laguna Frost Offering + Freezing Snipe / LMR + LM2 / TGM - USB
I'm trying to recall my steps but it went:
Bartz SSS until AASB, then spam SSS obviously, during High Stakes phase wait until Celes dispels, then resume SSS spam.
Celes Dispel, SSS until chain (so it goes off around 10 seconds on the timer), SSS until AASB (make sure she has QC), then dispel (also ensure she has QC) and spam SSS if needed.
OK pUSB, wrath, entrust to Elara, wrath, Manitcore, entrust to Elarra. OK continues to wrath/entrust
Elarra Shellga, Curada, USB, Curada, wait until Savage Wind to recast USB, and keep health up. Will need a USB right after savage thunderstorm in later stages of fight.
Laguna Wall, frost offering until USB (pray for stacks) and spam Freezing Snipe till USB towards end of fight .
I tried extending the use of Frost Offering rather than switching to Freezing snipe during Laguna's USB phase, but found it wasn't too useful as I lost too many chain hits. LMR was super handy as it can add stacks which can make or break the fight. Thought I could power through without imperil, but it was too frustrating.
so a little random,
i can consistently sub30 Hecatoncheir and was going to put him in my magicite deck but then i noticed that most of the guides don't actually have him in any deck.. why? is it because it happens to be the last element in the circle? (have only cleared heca, quel and kb so far). Farmed 8 copies of each. Just have no idea what the heck passives inherit on them :(
I just learned that Alphinaud's USB finisher will target allies if he's confused. 5x9999 to the whole party... wiped. Guess I'll move him out of slot 5. Adamantoise is a tanky mofo, though I was close to killing him. Far from sub-30.

Looking for a recent and straightforward 5* Magicite inheritance guide. Please advise.
