PSO2 [NA] - Final Battle : Sodam Depth 100 [

Описание: After dealing with Falzs and evil Photoners, it's finely time to confront the true Profond Darkness !

00:00 1st Part : Single Element
03:32 2nd Part : Dual Element
07:56 Final Form

Sodam arrived a few weeks ago, but we already had the opportunity to met him through Urgent and Divide quests. The fight is composed of phases where the boss takes a specific element that modify attacks and map mechanics.

My goal was to get sub 10min wich I was able to get a few times, my fastest being 9min20.
As usual pattern RNG can make you win/lose some time, but Sodam itself has a pretty regular IA in my opinion. Real time loss are more map related with tornado coming at the worst moment, lightning pool/strike, ice pillars, and this awfull brainless dash Sodam performs when it is too close to the cyclone.

About this run ?
It was really good overall, I only made one "significant" mistake at the end (7:15) because my controller sometimes doesn't recognize a long input press and make me do normal attack instead of enhanced :/. (oh yeah I also fucked with pp managment here 7:40^^).
Aside from that RNG wasn't that great, tornado always came on me, ice pillars spawned under me, and he started the "demon dash dance" at 4:46 so I had to lure him away from the cyclone.

So with better RNG and 0 mistakes maybe about 9min30 is possible but under seem hardly feasable on Luster.
In fact there's one way to win a huge ammount of time : skip on final phase.
Indeed, if you manage to deal enough damage on Sodam's hands when last phase begin, you can trigger finish state really early. This method saves about 50s+ and is super easy to do if you have enough damage. Unfortunately, Luster is lacking burst/damage to do so. I only managed to do it twice because of luck with specific boss pattern and mag Dance at the right moment but it was super tight. So unless we get OP consumables on Global this isn't really an option.

Edit : A few days after this video, someone told me you can actually damage Sodam's hand just before he vomits on last phase (8min57) by using ots view. This is a gamechanger to get the skip on this phase, I probably would have gotten it by doing so and saved about 1min on this run. But anyway I don't really care about it, this run looks great and doing it again just to add this skip won't bring anything more interesting to show in my opinion.
