Attack Pattern

• Up to 8 actions/turn (11 when HP < 50%)
• Pre-emptive attacks:
  • Reflect
  • Atomic Ray
  • Ends turn
• Counters:
  • Physical attacks with Rocket Punch to the attacker.
  • Magic attacks with Mustard Bomb to the attacker.
• Uses Flame Burst and Reflect every turn
• Uses one of the following attacks (on a 10-turn rotation):
  • Turn 1: Recoil
  • Turn 2: Earthquake
  • Turn 3: Wave Cannon
  • Turn 4: Encircle (to unit with highest ATK)
  • Turn 5: Recoil
  • Turn 6: Wave Cannon
  • Turn 7: Atomic Ray
  • Turn 8: Earthquake
  • Turn 9: Encircle (to unit with highest ATK)
  • Turn 10: Atomic Ray
  • Turn 11: Rotation starts from the top (Recoil...)
• Every three turns, on turn 2, 5, 8, etc: Rainbow Wind
• Every three turns when HP < 50%, on turn 2, 5, 8, etc: Earthquake
• Remaining actions are normal attacks.

Strategy

• See testimonials and discussions.
• All units must have 100% innate fire resistance to survive the pre-emptive attack.
• Use either non-elemental or lightning element damage. Omega will absorb all other elements
• Bring a source of ailment (blind, silence, confusion, paralysis) and stop resistance
  • 3-star Lakshmi can learn Unstoppable Protection (AoE Stop resistance)
• Damage race strategy:
  • Must be able to kill Omega by Turn 9 (before the 2nd Snort)
  • Require the following components in your team:
    • 3 "tanks" (an AoE magic cover tank, an AoE physical cover + provoke tank, a unit with 100% provoke as snort bait)
    • Death resistance (from Safety Bit or Genji Shield) on your provoker
    • A source of ailment + stop resistance
    • Stat debuff resistance (optional)
    • 2 chainers with lightning element weapons/abilities and Machine Killer, one of which must be 7*
• The Protagonist Halo item can cast 100% provoke on a single unit
• Hiding strategy:
  • Use a unit with a 1 turn hide skill that has 100% fire resist, death resist, 100% phys evade, and a source of Raise.
  • Other unit(s) for damage dealing are to be equipped with 100% fire resist.
  • Equip Great Raven's Cape or a source of Camouflage to the damage dealers to allow for the evade unit to have a higher priority to be targeted instead.
    • Innate provoke via Draw Attacks or Moogle Plushie in tandem with mp regen and Dualcast can also be of use.
  • Use "safe" turns to revive the damage dealers (1, 7, 10, 15, 21, 25, 27 and 30. Cycle repeats every 30 turns).
    • Turns 1, 15, 21, and 25 will not be safe if death resist is not equipped.
