    100 Luck translates to 20% Critical Hit Rate. With the folio Lucky Jockey (100 Luck while riding the moogle) plus the weapon trait Lucky Jockey, he's got 81% critical hit rate while riding the moogle. Add on the weapon trait Ability Critical Hit Rate Up and any ability I use while riding the moogle has a 91% crit chance. (except Fortune Telling, which seems to be a fixed 50% chance)
    The Red Megaphone is an excellent weapon for Cait because of double Lucky Jockey and double Critical Hit Damage Up. It grants him 91% crit chance while riding the moogle which can be boosted to 100% with a Luck Up materia, along with an extra 20% Critical Hit Damage bringing him to 140%. It's a higher DPS weapon than Gjallarhorn but it doesn't have ATB Limit, which is essentially a 2nd Transference Module.
    Gjallarhorn's ATB Limit comes in clutch in the Sephiroth fight because I get exactly enough limit gauge built up to limit break before octaslash. I could have just used gÃķtterdammerung to ensure I had limit break, but with eauvni's inspiration I wanted to see what Cait could do without it.

      ​@@Knlght0fZeroI'll do you one better. On the moogle, parry lasts longer and rapid hits are automatically parried by holding block after the first parry. For example, Bahamut's Vulcan Assault requires 1 button press to parry the whole thing. I think it has something to do with the AI of the moogle re-initiating a block after the parry animation finishes.

    parrying with the moogle?

      Parrying on the moogle is 99% just like parrying with anyone else, you just need to know when the moogle can and cannot block, which is when it can and cannot parry. It needs to be either walking under the player's control or it needs to be in a 100% computer controlled state in order to block/parry. Anything the computer does on it's own can be canceled into a block.
      The moogle cannot block/parry while using attacks that give it an uncancelable unique animation. This means it cannot block/parry while executing Let's Ride, Fortune Telling, Lucky Slots, or any of the 4 moogle abilities. (Knuckle, Kaboom, Magic, Mine) It cannot block/parry while evading with his spin, or while using his twirling hold square button attack. If you push triangle to mount the moogle, it automatically executes a sliding attack and you cannot block/parry. You can prevent the slide by holding the stick and forcing a spin evade, but he cannot block/parry while doing that either. If you push triangle to mount the moogle, you are forced to wait about 1.5 seconds before the moogle is able to block so it is very important to know when it is safe to mount the moogle. If you use Let's Ride, the moogle is able to immediately block/parry after hitting the ground. Cait and the moogle also have armor during the Let's Ride animation, so you may take damage while using it but you won't be interrupted (unless the damage somehow kills the moogle) and will be able to block after.
      It CAN parry while using Roll o' the Dice and Lady Luck. It can parry while casting anything, and it can parry while you are mashing square for ranged or melee attacks. It can even parry when it executes a baseball slide on it's own. As long as you haven't commanded it to do anything, you can block/parry.

    The amount of things that need to go right is insane.
    Imagine if you didn’t get the limit break to resist octaslash or odins temporal imprisonment.
    Or somehow camera messed up and you failed to clip both of bahamuth wings
    Or phoenix didn’t die and dodged one of gilgamesh summon attacks

      Octaslash limit was manufactured with like 8 perfect blocks and Transference Module + ATB Limit weapon trait. The sonic boom I used before octaslash gave my my last bit of limit so it wasn't luck. (It was, however, dozens of attempts) Besides that, Cait can actually dodge octaslash. eauvni did it in his uploaded clear and I've done it but not uploaded it yet. Dismounting the moogle is basically a short range teleport which is how you do it.
      On Odin I already had limit, I was just flexing the Lucky Slots for fun.
      I get both of Bahamut's wings every time. Target one, hold square will kill it every time. 2nd level magic kills the other wing.
      However I will concede the Phoenix 1 cycle requires a lot of luck 😂 Gilg needs to use Pinwheel instead of spatial rend and fortune telling (probably) needs to crit.
      The 2nd limit on Sephiroth wasn't a cheap save either. You can't use limit when you are in hitstun which means if I had just held block instead, block would have come out. Some of his combos have gaps like that.
