Wow, that run was a clusterfuck.
Went with Maxwell/Maxwell, Elza, Zelnite, Luther, Mariudeth. Attack pot, and fujin on Maxwells, Luther, and Zelnite.
OTK Zebra. 2nd round and I had Mariudeth SBB, and everyone else with BB's. Use the SBB, then Zelnite to get a few SBB's up. I think Luther might have been the only one, but that's what I needed (spark). Was able to OTK it, and rounds 3/4. Round 5 comes around and I smoked the earth unit, but man, Phee was at like 60% still. 2nd turn got her to like 5%. Obviously, on the kill shot, I was left with jack shit for round 6.
I think with Zelnite first I was able to get all of them to use their BB's, which killed the light unit. But then it was a 5 round kill for Magress. Fucking close one. Ended up with 1,307,720. That's about as close as I was in FH7 to missing it (think I missed legwand by like 2k).
Edit: Velk, congratulations on the Ulkina. That's pretty awesome for 1 summon. I kind of agree with you. Kuda seems pretty awesome, but at the same time, Maxwell kind of makes it a moot point. Maxwell + Michele or Kuhla is pretty much the same as Kuda, and you'll almost always have Maxwell in your squad anyway. I think once Saturday rolls around, I'll pretty much always go with Maxwell, Zelnite, Elza, Kuhla, and Exvehl. Swap in a defense mitigator or healer as needed, and it's pretty much game over. Oh, and Shida 6* for FH in place of probably Exvehl.
That's not to say I don't want Kuda. If I somehow summon one, I'll definitely go with him over Kuhla. But it's kind of unnecessary.
