[FGOAA TA] Defeating the Hardest Boss in LB6 (Not Cern!)

Shoutouts to ‪@Zectry‬ for suggesting this to me. Without him I probably would have been done with lb6 by now lol.
The vast majority of the player base will clear this quest by "retreating" but what does it take to actually beat Bhargest here. The permanent np seal applied at the start of the fight makes the eternal stall comp unviable and the massive 50% def down and 50% max hp down along with consistent applications of max hp down throughout the fight means that you really only have a few turns to beat Bhargest. For this reason I believe that this version of Bhargest is the hardest (beatable) boss to beat in LB6, not Cern. I say beatable because I believe that one woodwose fight is impossible to beat.
There are very few units that can defeat Bhargest here (even with buddy ring it's probably still very low) and they require a copy of poster girl if not a mlb copy to counter the massive atk down that you receive at the start of the battle. Having class advantage and decent steroids also isn't enough as Bhargest will use her NP on turn 2 without some form of np seal or drain and mash's invul must be used on herself so that you don't immediately lose the fight. This means the DPS has to bring their own form of survival whether that be guts, invul, or evade to survive turn 2 and make it to turn 3. At this point in time, I believe the only units that can realistically beat this quest are Arjuna Alter, Super Orion, Ishtar, and Morgan but I may be forgetting a few. Units like Cu Alter and Herc while they do have the necessary survival and the ideal deck to tackle this fight, they don't have the star absorb to realistically be able to crit.
My original script required that I draw BBB on turn 1 but I realized that since Bhargest will np on turn 2 anyway, I can use the card shuffle on turn 2 and have santagale die to reset the hand for turn 3.
It's been a while since i've discussed the necessary rng in my runs so here it is.
Turn 1: BBB, BQB, BAB, and BQA if I get the debuff CC (~14.68%). I only put one debuff CC one Junao's busters and gave the others star gain CCs so I won't have trouble critting in later turns. Bhargest cannot crit on the first attack as that will cause the guts to activate and Junao to get attacked again on the third action.
Turn 2: BBB, BQB, and BAB after card shuffle (~10.69%). If I didn't get the debuff CC on turn 1, I will need it on turn 2. Due to how guts and taunt interacts, Bhargest is guaranteed to attack Mash on her second action. Bhargest needs to attack Mash again for her third action so Junao survives.
Turn 3: BBB (~11.11%)

I firmly believe this is the only 3T of this fight out there. Huge congrats on accomplishing what I couldn't, and I am genuinely amazed to see it pulled off!!!

[@requiemTA]

Just because you're right it doesn't mean you're correct
Also big congrats both for the run, as well as for the patience

[@Ohimeshinso]

Someone: We need to run away?
Arjuna Alter: Who is running away?
Someone: Us!
Arjuna Alter: Who.. decided that? I.. am God. I am the one who decides. Agni, Gandiva...

[@uselesshero.official]

More like: Nigeru? Darega...? Dokoe...? Soshute... Nnnaaaaaazzzzzzzzzzzzzeee?????

[@kostyanoss409]

Would be cool if we got some message from devs before the cutscene like "we designed this fight to be unwinnable, but eh, someone beating it was expected. Kudos to you, but we have to pretend you lost it for the plot"
X2 cool if BB said it

[@Ohimeshinso]

Or if you got a big reward.
Like a lore, a lot of bronze matts, or even a grail fragment

[@anothisflame8266]

​@@Ohimeshinsono giving a reward would mean most players would *want* the reward and would subject themselves to absolute pain trying to get it. That's bad game design.
Kudos to the players who win for sure but no, a tangible reward outside of an honest congratulations would be both meanspirited and counter to the design of the mission.

[@Ohimeshinso]

@@anothisflame8266 I don't think 15 bones is gonna be convincing enough. Because with all the work you have to do to do that one time, you could beat a free quest many many times over and get a decent amount with way less hassle. It's just a "You beat impossible mission, so here's a reward for your labors"
Also, I'm a massive advocate for story replay so I'm of the mind you should be able to come back and do it later anyway, so I don't think it's a problem in that case

[@TheStuffEnjoyer]

Game Devs: Oki Player-sama, time to retre-
Player-sama: -Nah, I'd win...
Game Devs: ...What? B-but we programmed it so you can't wi-
Player-sama: -Watch me...
A few moments later...: Victory!

"Stand proud Devs, you were strong"

[@TokuHer0]

Congrats on finishing the battle of patience

[@MaidoNyxi]

That's super incredible! Congrats!

[@hirokurobane9145]

wow congrats on the run, I also agree that this fight as harder than Cern, hell easily the hardest fight in the entire LB6.

[@crispyfour9052]

Arjuna Alter go brrr

[@coconut_tv0564]

Ppl are honestly sleeping on how brutaly difficult Baggie is. Would I say that she's harder than Nunnos? No, but she is a very close second

[@akise9262]

congrats saka, amazing run and script as usual!

[@robinhood6077]

Ah, this is 29.4? I totally forgot about this 😅 Nicely done!

[@Ethonra]

That's a subscriber earning video right there. 👏

[@Rosemaryalter2711]

So if this version of Barghest had millions of HP instead of hundreds of HP, who could defeat it?

[@sakazuki28]

No one.

[@mrguy89]

If millions and no break bar, maybe someone. Millions PER break bar? Impossible.

[@uselesshero.official]

ORT maybe?

[@SagittariusAyy]

Bro said “What the dog doin”

[@XL1GT]

If is so hard then idk how i beat that while NA did some "trolling" to everyone rush LB6 due to the enormous amount of leyline stones that it has given.
Btw in this black dog barghest fight i think that i did not used morgan, i don't remember but one thing is certain is that i did not use an berserker for DPS and yes frontline only with NPC lancelot and tristan doing the most of the damage

[@lameassguy900]

Wait you can actually finish this fight?

[@sakazuki28]

Yeah but there's a lot of rng and you need specific units and CEs

[@uselesshero.official]

For me Cernunnos was at least 2 times difficult than Baggy though.
