Following an idea from THE_SQUIREL on GameFAQs, I decided to put on the Internet a video showing the best method to accumulate combo hits on Blazing Souls.
The idea is as simple as spamming Spark Shot at enemies on Lake Eulid 1. Secondary help is welcome, such as using Fairuza's Genius to make solo Mirage Force techniques fit (12 more hits and guarantee to Break enemies weak to Penetrate attacks), and Lightning Spirits using all their AP to extend the combo. If you can increase AP with gear, it's highly recommended.
The main utility to this trick is CP accumulation for the items available on the Collection Souk. A combo such as the one depicted in the video nets 256 CP alone, but a truly professional use of the trick can net you 500 hits and 1024 CP.
BTW, sorry for the traffic sounds in the background. I forgot the mic on and it caught lots of sound that it shouldn't.
So @JuninhoNash Games on YouTube was discussing how broken Akuma is on SFV (he's the top of the food chain there, really) and people kept saying some bullcrap about Akuma.
I don't know about you, and I'm not a pro player myself, but to cite an example of Akuma's usual brokenness, in Alpha 3 even if you're not rolling his even more broken Shin Akuma version and you're not on the V-ISM gauge, he can still pull stupid combo stunts.
Don't ask me how I acquire these skills out of nowhere, it just happens.
And all this because I wanted to derust on Metroid. Then suddenly I'm learning speedrunning tricks.
This is what happens when you eventually realize you prepared yourself too much.
Zelos: Stat average 160 - Revolver Cannon, Extra Frame, Blue Water. Infini Core.
Naiz: Stat average 160 - Sword of Chaos, Oboro, Mighty Ring.
Jadore: Stat average 170 - Vasaltis, Divine Guard, Mighty Ring.
Nguyen: Stat average 160 - Curtana, King's Emblem, Mighty Ring.
Snow: Stat average 140 - Rune Blade, Pelops, Angel Wing.
Carla: Stat average: 70 - Gate of Hell, Big Black, Gale Ring.
I had to bring everyone to activate their Potentials and lucked out into the correct turn order, which allowed Snow and Jadore to connect their La Delfes. TBH 28 million damage is a rather absurd feat. Just getting the Title on the Collection Souk was not enough, apparently.
So this Charlie popped up and I happened to fight him... and damn was I bad at getting to him. I only started winning the fight once I noticed he refused to get close to me unless I was down.
Also yeah, video quality is spotty. Splicing three videos into one results in the stuff not looking as good. I'll find a way to make this better.
Oh yeah, an extra note: This fight was recorded on 07/02/2020, before the Season 5 patch. This and another fight I have to upload both were recorded at this date.
