Eikon Loadout: 1. Shiva: Rift Slip, Diamond Dust 2. Garuda: Will-of-the-Wykes, Gigaflare 3. Odin: Lightning Rod, Dancing Steel Accessories: Genji Gloves +1, Favor of Light +1 (Gigaflare), Pull of Darkness +1 (Dancing Steel) Essential Combos: 1. Cold Snap (Permafrost) - Lunge - Magic Burst - Rift Slip - Cold Snap (Frostbite) - Limit Break - Diamond Dust : Learn this combo and you'll melt the will gauge to more than 1/4, nearing partial-stagger. 2. *any ability* - Rift Slip : Basically cancels ability recovery animation, enough time to open up the next ability. 3. *any ability* - Rift Slip - Cold Snap : standard combo for halting stagger time for a short duration 4. Lightning Rod - Limit Break - Gigaflare : TONS OF DAMAGE, LITERALLY MELTS esp with Genji Gloves and Favor of Light I also made a Lightning Rod Guide (the BEST and most versatile ability in the game): ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-xjYzzpGKU0s.html I tackled the many uses of this ability especially in NG end game and NG+ (it's bunkers in FF mode) such as quick-staggering, filling the Zantetsuken gauge to MAX for boss fight preparations and farming overworld enemies, and FAST limit break gauge fill and quick-partial staggering against certain boss enemies. You can see in this fight how Lightning Rod + Gigaflare combo melts the HP bar.
One thing I still love about the eikon clashes is how ultima only calls each eikon by its element, to him it's not even a person or entity, but clive calls each one forth by its proper name, showing that he values each eikon as a person before its elemental nature.
That's because that power is originally his. The Eikons were born FROM that power he wouldn't call it by it's Eikonic name cause it didn't exist at the time.
Hell, they basically switch places by the end of this fight. By the time Ultima recombined with all his disparate selves, he thereafter only uses singular pronouns, whereas by the end, Clive uses the metaphorical "we" for all mankind.
One advice for eikon battles is learning when to be aggressive and defensive. It's basically hit-and-run, pour your abilities and one combo, then get away. Always prioritize dodging incoming attacks and counter accordingly.
Someone for the love of all that is holy explain how to use Rift Slip beyond just speeding up a recovery from getting knocked down... This run was absolutely insanity. You must have been white knuckling that controller.
i speak with bahasa ya bro... saya masih bingung, kalian bisa tidak kena damage, padahal menurut saya kadang mini bos saja sudah susah untuk di lawan, bisa kasih tau rahasianya apa ?
sorry i don't speak Bahasa, so I used google translate. basically the "secret" is permafrost via cold snap, lightning rod combos, learning the fast zantetsuken input buffer, and learning rift slip mechanics. For the eikon battle, basically prioritize defense > offense and learn how to dodge all of his attacks and abilities
Its makes sense with how dissapointing the fight was with odin that his ultimate does literally no damage maxed out. Everything else dwarfs it even zantesuken which is the basic circle charge. You could have made this so much faster with a different ultimate in odins kit.
