Very few characters have a SAFE attack that can go through charged spear. You forget that she also has other moves too. Her ability to zone out almost every character is what makes her broken.

@Crimson0089 Part 2: Meltdown is deflectable by timing a charged spear. Also remember that if they do somehow hit she has assists to save her from any mistakes. The opponent cant really assist punish you because they assist would get locked because it would touch the spears.

@Crimson0089 Hide behind Charged spear being immune to assists and most characters? Uncharged spear builds assist and gives her an EXTREMELY fast close ranged poke that starts chase. She's extremely deadly at close and long range now, spear covered her huge weakness in Dissidia 1, close ranged fights

they definitely made the battles much longer and the flow is much faster which i like

@Crimson0089 Oh missed this. Only characters I see on this list that are a real threat are: Sephiroth (SF spam is hard to handle) and Gilgamesh (his thunder spawns right on top of Ulti so it's fairly hard to dodge). Everyone else has a ranged attack yes but it's either easily blocked by Charged Spear because it has higher priority or is very easily dodged. Take Terra for example, Holy, Blizzara, Blizzard Combo, Meteo are all deflected by Ulti hiding behind her charged spear.

Well... ultimecia is a time witch, so she is perfect

Actually... Quick battles are very quick for experts like us in this game. What really is interesting is battling your ghost in Quest Creator.

OMG ULTI, I WAS RIGHT TO MAIN HER TOO

"Ultimecia is broken!" *plays with EASY AI*

@AznPridr Knight spear (like all of her attacks) has 2 forms uncharged: 3 spears come out of her, its reaaaally fast, and it push the opponent (GTFO) and it initiates chase Charged: you hold O and a circle appear in front of ulti, after a moment or release, three crossed spears come from the ground, pushing in the air, they stay on the field a couple of ses, and you can camp behind it

@murkrowrob I was wrong. Her bravery seemed like it doubled because i had exp to brv on and i had also several items that boosted bravery at certain points. Also It's quite easy to raise her brv to over 2,500 if you follow some methods. Like using her bio attack then making your opponent land an hp hit. Instant break and if the stage bravery is high enough your brv will raise to over 2,500.

@Crimson0089 Not exactly sure what you said. Gabranth's Innocence is not a good counter for her spells since the move is extremely long and an HP attack will easily cancel it

@Demitel Well no, I'll admit I was exploiting the AI since it's so damn easy to do that =3

years later, she's still broken. In Dissidia NT

@fatedraisondetre She has knight spear to deal with people getting to close to her

@Crimson0089 Also remember a timed Charged spear can block maybe 90% of the moves in the game. She's really easy on AI, try playing with a human, 90% of Ulti players I see are way too flinchy and get dodge punished too much. (Based off of first Dissidia, didnt play much online on Duodecim since I quit a while back)

Knight's Axe looks like it's been buffed too, but I'd probably have to play it myself to convince myself. Very nice video though, and Hell's Judgement looks epic.

@BlueBirdChannel Actually no. Everyone got buffs overall but alot of characters suffer from not being able to build assist quickly and/or have long attacks that can be easily punished with assists. (Golbez, OK, Jecht for example)

@AzumangaFan13 They're uploaded on the accounts: DissidiaForums and TheDissidiaForums It's not nitpicking, it was a big tournament (50+ players) and Feral Chaos users got far and dominated. One person specifically, Mike, had been playing Dissidia for about 2 weeks, he placed third in the tournament just by spamming Via Dolorosa + Kuja assist. He destroyed the best Dissidia players in the game with just 1 move.

@ColeVecsion Those people are from Dissidiaforums. The tier list on there is based off of tournament data, tournament-wise only 3 people have used Ultimecia successfully (mostly Dave as he won a tournament using her). She he arguably one of the hardest characters to use in the game becuase you need to learn spacing and mindgames. And inb4 you say you can use Ulti well because you play vs AI. And No I was talking about original DFF

@AznPridr for Hell's Judgment, Ulti charge for like 1.5 sec, and pentagram appears under the opponent and it does a couple of blast in the air, doing brv damage before the HP hit however, if you miss, people told me that its easy punishable, so be careful cuz you're wide open while using it

@balthier1259 it does damage, it sends the opponent fly in the air (its really funny if you use it near a ceiling, the opponent keeps hurting the ceiling and the spears until they disappear or until he gets out XD) but you can actually use it as a block, like you hold it, and release it once the opponent is in front of you so he'll fly away (and im sure theres a possibility of a great combo with apocalypse there)

@Crimson0089 Exdeath and Sephiroth are considered top tier. Desperado Chaos was banned in tournaments for being able to destroy 95% of the characters in the game with just 2 moves

@TheAverageGaemur You can play people around the world through a program on the PS3 (Ad-Hoc Party)

@Crimson0089 Broken in gaming usually means very strong

@RoboDestroyer You could use her attack to stop the opponent then use the wind or water magic to land an unavoidable hit.

Looking forward to it. I just wish I had more people to play with. T_T

@JunDageki Part 2: There is alot more to the game now. Chase plays a huge role and mastering when to assist to save yourself/punish. Part 3: Yeah, you made a comment on my video and I replied to it.

What I do us just spam four arrows. When they launch I use hells judgement for an HP attack and it knocks them to the ground then brv assist with jecht and he knocks them back into the air and then another hells judgment. IIRC.... that's how it goes. Two HP attacks and it can't be stopped unless you assist block.

@UltimeciaKnight Hahahahahahaha did I really mean that? Nah I did I forgot to note that it was Prologus that costs $3.

@vc180191 I think that was either a temporary mistranslation (she loses the emphasis on the 'c' in her final form) or the translators taking a little artistic license to give her a little flavor. The Japanese language doesn't have a hard 'c', so they use "ka", "ki", "ku", "ke" or "ko" to pronounce such words.

I really hope that cloud is pretty useful air fighting.

Knight's arrows also have longer hitstun. This opponent is one I just quit/retryx34 against. And I defeated Feral Chaos with one character with a normal set of equips.

@Pyrotekhnic Nope. Haven't done like 85% of the matchups in Duodecim. The ones I did do were like first 2 weeks of the game being released, noone had any clue what they were doing lol

@angelforce001 She has one of the best EX modes in the game, so what? She has alot of trouble landing those HP attacks. She's very reliant on rulesets, quite good in gear worthless in anything else

@UltimeciaKnight You can still get her the PSN is back up. All you have to do is buy Prologus and play it. I personally didn't get Aerith because I couldn't afford Prologus, but I don't really feel I missed out on anything considering she isn't really that good. Her seal evil can be blocked and her Holy takes too long to cast.

@RoboDestroyer actually you can move in the DFF while casting apocalypse.

Yes, but I didnt expect people I actually know to be stalking my comments (Bloody and Silva). Lol

@Crimson0089 Haven't played much Kefka in Duodecim. He's decent I suppose but he's really easily assist punished by some characters. The buffs to some of his moves are great though, Shatter Spray is a great move now. Lol Golbez, my old main, he really got hit by the nerf stick. The problem with Golbez is he is easily assist punished because ALL of his moves have horrible cooldown and he has no safe way to build assist. Nightglow is amazing now but doesn't completely make up for his nerfs.

@BadAssBlackOverlord Actually thats Robo setted up charged Arrow in the air here 2:35

@JunDageki I think a lot of people watched this video and were wondering what exactly made her so broken when he almost lost to the computer.

You convinced me to buy this. :3

@JunDageki PART 3: Also based on my past performance in Dissidia tournaments I say I use Ulti very well and not to brag but I'm considered one of the best Ulti players in DFF. The rankings have not been updated for the recent tournaments but I'm ranked in the top 10 of all the Dissidiaforums players (100+). Also if you have a PS3 and Ad-Hoc Party we could easily arrange a match and you can prove to me that you can block everything I throw at you. lrn2trollbetternoob

@RoboDestroyer and Golbez also still can't fight mages or anyone camping him in the air.

@RoboDestroyer Where can I find these videos? I understand Via Dolorosa is delayable, so those who dodge the first tail wave, can get caught by the second one if timed right, but that (by itself) can't really just make him banned. If that's so, then those who're monitoring these "Tournaments" are just nitpicking.

Yes, she is broken in this video. Repeatedly.

@RoboDestroyer Pretty sure you wouldn't, and you have no basis on if you would or not by not having seen me play. Also, those are used to keep opponents away TO KEEP RANGE. Those attacks are to keep foes at a distance. And you supported my point by pointing out her HP attacks are keep away attacks.

@Posiden468 Perfect summary right here. He also has one of the worst air games

Shantotto has become alot less broken due to her losing her ability to nearly rape everything in ex mode. Also Gabranth's Innocence (air) now has a limited range unlike before when it was unlimited.

@1aundulxaldin It basically means they think the character is unfair/overpowered.

Wow why are people stalking my account. =( And I didnt say Sephy was a counter I said he's probably the only one that can outzone her. Maybe.

@UltimeciaKnight Nah you are correct Braver is shorter. Not much shorter but shorter all the same. I never really used it much anyway though. I mostly used it for countering Divine Punishment (from Chaos) or countering Wraith Particle Beam (from Cloud of Darkness) it doesn't seem much more useful than that since even in the original a simple back dodge will avoid it.

Ultimecia is Top Tier. Simple. The whole entire professional Dissidia Community has established this.

Nooooo I use her in a waaaaaay more broken way!!!! Wow. Makes me feel like a genius!

@Demitel Wooo. Demi you do know I consider you sensei in all things Terra and Ulti so that's good to know. But keep in mind that I am definitely Robo's sensei in every shape and form >:D

this is a crazy battle espually its outer space

@AzumangaFan13 Try watching the DDFF Tournament videos. Via Dolorosa alone makes FC bannable in competitive play (and he was banned). Saying you can dodge every single attack and counter is theory fighting, there is no way a human player would be able to beat a FC on a small map and is still extremely hard on a large map

@fission2 Ultima - Slow and won't hit. Remote Flare - Forgot about this, it'll be fairly annoying to deal with this. Blizzara - easily dodged. Blizzaga - lol ground blizzaga, dont think it has infinite vertical range. WoL - no. Yeah Exdeath is pretty much considered the best character in the game already. Emperor vs Jecht was a 9-1 matchup in the first Dissidia. Online is fun, too bad community is shit.

I think I just lost several brain cells glancing at the comments. People are still debating whether she's top tier? Oh lord. ultimaweapon2000's Ultimecia. That is all.

@RoboDestroyer Dunno how widespread this is but Ulti can actually cancel out Gilgamesh's Electrocute just by using charged arrows and moving to the side. You probably know this already anyway xP

nice combos

@RoboDestroyer Part2: oh yeah forgot to mention the assists system and other stuffs like the nerfs and buffs. Part3: i take back all i said since it seems that saying "Ultimecia is not broken" sounds so offensive to some of you, i came to do a normal discussion about Ultimecia but i lost interest while the days passed and how this argument has become unnecessary the more time we spoke.

@miyamotofan He almost lost because he has no equipment. Levels carried over from the first Dissidia but not gear. With gear he'd be broken >.

@Crimson0089 Ultimecia was bad? She was high tier in first Dissidia, here she's considered top 3. Most characters have absolutely no way of approaching her when she's hiding behind charged spear (for example: WoL, Cloud) or it's extremely easy to punish/dodge when they do. Ultimecia is probably one of the hardest characters to master in this game. You pick Sephiroth if you want easy tier whoring wins.

Ultimecia, hottest villain chick ever

@lessthan9000 Uhhh, it's actually not as bad as people think it is. Don't say that kind of stuff if you've never played online. It's good ground pressure since it cant get deflected, is unblockable at close range, and starts chase.

Yeah. I use Ultimecia as my primary Magic user. Her poised Knights Arrows (charged) are only one instead of two in this game, she's Needed to be able to move during her HP attacks (I think the Emperor countered me one time in the first Dissidia) and you can get Creative... you just have to be Smart when you're fighting her. In Dissidia, if you got in her face, you Had her - the Knights Spear was a Good touch. Fast Execution + Chase? Win.

@baixiaolang true, but im ALSO wondering how the hell he thinks Knights Arrow has better tracking, looks the same as the first Dissidia to me, now they did change Shockwave Pulsar (it sucks now, literally XD) and Apocalypse, but then again, lots of Caster characters who had HP Attacks that made them immobile in Dissidia, can now move during them, Kefka's Forsaken attack being a prime example, they did alot of rebalancing between Dissidia and Duodecim, most of it for the better

wow her moves got slower, but they did add new skills to her

@maverickkiller35 its Hell's Judgment -_- Hell's gate is a sephiroth move

Yeah I'm glad they beefed her up this time. I could barely stand trying to play as her in the original, and now I kick ass with her! All that's left for me to do is to play a bit more offensive (I'm used to playing Sephiroth so I rarely chain more than one or two attacks)

@Bleach918273 You've gotta change your playstyle. Because she got Knight's Lance her attacks have become alot safer to do, she also builds assist like crazy because her attacks have very little cooldown

You're right; she is broken. She was even curb-stomped quicker than usual. What the f*ck, Square Enix? The only thing about her that can make her seem broken is one's inability to get a good hold on her. Don't do obvious frontal attacks, stay close, and you'll be fine. Makes a long-distance fighter's job harder, though.

@Halo1Light Desperado Chaos isn't broken, not at all. Just understanding how his attacks/AI works is enough to stand his attacks. On another note, Ultimecia isn't broken, if she was, she would've not gotten hit once. lol She's a great character, who got buffed tremendously for 012, and that makes this game that more interesting.

I just found out Ultimecia can cancel Time Crush. O_O Welcome to broken-dom.

@RoboDestroyer no way, shes one of my best characters on the first dissidia, but now its kinda weird playin her against other characters

@12Shizuo Because Knight's Lance sucks at close range.

Ultimecia is annoying for sure since spamming ranged attacks. although I find, Kuja more broken in Duodecim, fast attacks, great with ultima too. he has a great kit. some bravory attacks of Ultimecia can be negated just by dashing towards her

Cloud just can't seem to shake off all these oppressed super beings. They can't stop messing with him!

@Bleach918273 Her moves aren't slower, they're the same

@miyamotofan Ulti had no Equips on

Well, she kind of is broken. Her long range game is absurdly good, and her Knight's Lance is good at keeping opponents, projectiles, and assists at bay. Her Knight's Lance is also a pretty fast move, so it's very hard to approach her. Long-range fighters such as Kuja (or fighters with good long-range moves such as Lightning) have an easier time against her. Still, most of her match-ups are in her favor: few are even, and even fewer are bad for her.

Yes, Ultimecia is broken. So is Emperor. So is... actually, they broke everyone, pretty much, except for the characters which didn't need any upgrades (like Jecht).

Omg.

huh? u can attack the assist character?

You failed to mention in your description her close range moves

@Halo1Light We... We don't speak his name... It incites ragequits and nightmares. X3

@fatedraisondetre Pretty sure I'd beat you online if we fought. And lol, lack of close range skills? Did you even watch the video? Knight's Sword faster startup, Knights Spear uncharged and charged, and her HP's are keepaway attacks. Also notice I'm fighting naked vs Cloud so that's kinda expected.

I like how people trash talked to Robo when he played vs Cloud max AI naked :I That shows how many people hate Robo.

@itoumakoto1980 orly? Because I'm 100000000000% sure she cant.

Btw Knighst Spear is faster then WoL and Sephy's Quick Move :3

Read the tags...

@fallenfaint not really Crossbow is only good when you switch to it after that its crap

i think she would be alot more broken if you made kefta her assist then you could combine his forksaken move with her aerials moves. that would easily corner your opponents.

@skiemage Im not craving for attention, i just came to this video like anyone else and gave my opinion and even went polite. its you people who find it so offending and made such a big fuss over it and try your hardest to reply and insult back. all my point was that i dont see how Ultimecia is broken, and you get so worked up over a disagreement, seriously if you find offense to this then i take it back so you people don't have to cry so much anymore ok?

@12Shizuo No it's not. Did you try looking on my account and actually searching Ultimecia videos? Where I'm playing actual human beings? In Tournaments? One where I'm actually wearing gear and when it isn't my first time playing Ulti in duodecim? And the vids on my account are outdated and the meta has changed a lot since then but it's much better than this crap.

@12Shizuo You implied she sucked because she gets screwed at close range. Not true.

@Lavos2007 Kuja's not for the better. He's just more gay with his force symphony.

@UltimeciaKnight It may still happen but not quite the same as in your video lol. It should be just as effective as it used to be if you don't spam it and you're close to the opponent. However, you just bitch slapped me with nostalgia from Dissidia 1 lol everything was so slow and foreign looking after so much Duodecim.

@RoboDestroyer Part 1: i was not implying all that so it seems i was correct on the part that you didnt read me at all. Part 2: i have this game as well and i barely find any difference, the mechanics are only faster and has more gravity but the AI is still the same, the only difficulty in it is that the game runs faster now. Part 3: I dont care what tournaments you did, you made a video and i commented about this video. And i dont troll, you're just too emotional
