Ulty Help?

[Craptastic]

Hi guys...just a few days ago I was using ultimecia..getting her to level50 to get an achievement but then I started to enjoy using her..quite a change in gameplay compared to squall but I can manage. Plus it helps give me a option on going from a melee character to a ranged-based one.

I just want to know what set of equipment to use for her..I cant use lufenian since it will be next to useless ( i only hit HP attacks when my opponent's Time Crushed ) and which crit ability would be best for her? I currently have sneak attack+riposte on along with snooze and lose but I'm thinking of riposte+counter...what do you guys think?

Oh and right now im using this set:

Weapon: Shooting Star
Shield: Seyditz
Helm: Circlet
Armor: Brigandine

For starters, you'll want to learn how to land HP attacks from an uncharged Knights Arrow.

Landing HP attacks is half the game. Not getting hit by them is the other half

i'am trying out Ulty and need her to lv up as well so far what i found out is
1: she looks hot
2: her HP attks need timing try comboing with BRV attks
3:time crush is useless vs high lv AI
4:shes hot XD

Sorry to put you down, but I think that whole post was useless. Except for the timing part.

Time Crush is ultimately the best attack vs. AI. Right up there with Goblin Punch.

Time Crush + Charged Arrows + Uncharged Arrows = Lulz

it's useless for me cuz they attk befor it's cast time is done and then i lose ether 2000 BRV or 3500 HP

Artifcats all the way for her equipment. If you don't have them... Well then I got nothing. If you can, get Artifacts that boost Magic and Attack. It'll make all those little pecks of her's add up to a lot more damage/

As for landing HP attacks, keep this in mind: each of her HP attacks has huge range. In a focused area. Apocalypse has huge upward vertical range, but not so much horizontally or downward. The explosion from Shockwave Pulsar covers a lot of ground. Below you. Aim it right, and it can be hard to get away from. Great Attractor fires like a god damn bullet, and flies far as hell, but has virtually no vertical tracking unless you fully charge it.

The trick is getting the opponent in one of those 3 hot spots (above you, below you, in front of you), and using the right HP attack. Also, if you're playing in a stage with walls or a cieling, you can fire Shockwave Pulsar at them to detonate it in the opponent's face. Especially handy if you're fighting your opponent up close at the ceiling. As soon as you release Pulsar, it'll set off and explode.

tl;dr Ultimecia has epic range. Use it
