Strategies
July 2021: after trying various strategies including full awakening combos, comparing damage, time stalling with supers, it simply seems a matter of doing the most supers and tagging in and out as much as possible, this will get the most damage. All the videos you will see will not explain that you need to adjust and adapt, constantly!
Omega Rugal: General Tips
Rugal has a break bar, break it with his weakness (different per level: burn, darkness, starlight). Once he is "broken" hit him with skills or awakening combos. Do not use supers unless you have nothing left, you should be using supers to stall time. Awakening combos will do 10m damage in comparison to a super which will do 1~2m damage, and the biggest problem is that during the long animation, his break bar will expire, often meaning he will interrupt your attack with a burst which will damage your character. Note that some 3pgs do much more damage depending on card set, but in fact the best damage and strategy is from a combination of supers plus 20~50% of the awakening bar combo.
The best strategy is to use very specific characters who will spend skills then do their super move to stall time, then tagging to a weakness depleting character that allows the last character tag in and break Rugal and then combo to the max, AND THEN managing to repeat this cycle BEFORE Rugal does his invincible interrupter (aka "his break"). Rugal's routine, where he attacks, breaks, and powers up is repeated three times, actually lasts around 2 minutes, but the best strategies draw this out to 4 to 6 minutes.
Easy/ Hard: Use characters with Burn, such as FES K' and Nameless. You could use Nests Kyo but the best team synergy is with Pretty Zero who will give a 20% power gain buff along with 40% attack. This will allow Nameless and K' to go crazy.
Normal/Expert
Use characters with darkness: Dellons, Saiki, Halloween Gatecrasher Chris and Lady Geese. Saiki is a good leader but only for yellows.... he should inflict darkness and swap out immediately. Rachel is the best character overall for this quest. Equipping her with the Gintama set is extra great. All other characters should have Leah sets or next strongest attack sets.
Lady Geese as the BEST and most reliable striker to inflict darkness. Remember to use her as you do skills, you have 7 seconds to tag and get in all that damage! If you don't break Rugal, it's likely to be game over, but some characters like Mai and Merlin can break his bar without weakness (how much depends on their level).
Best teams:
Other considerations:
Leaders
Bugs
Rachel S2 has a glitch where the flames stay on Rugal. Cycle through skills S1, S3, S2 then rapidly press your basic attack button until the skills reset. (now fixed)
Rachel's 3PG can cancel if you press too many buttons while it's animating. (fixed)
Rachel can get stuck and nothing will happen until Rugal hits her (fixed)
O.Rugal Lunatic
Lunatic has now been literally obsoleted by Krizalid A3 who can do it solo with Akane set and Maxima /Gintoki cooldown cards.
Suggested team is Mai, Athena (or XI Liz) and Eileen or Rachel or Merlin. Rugal's weakness is Starlight. Mai's damage is absolutely ridiculous, if you have her at three stars, it's going to be great.
Mai/Athena/Eileen
Mai gives the female boost of 60%
Here's my explanation with Athena Orochi and Eileen
Here's Inti using Mai Athena and Rachel
Here's Mr Rexplite using Mai Merlin and Athena to clear it with 1 key
SS.Kyo/SS.Mai/SS.Athena
Kyo gives SS characters boost 60%
- Kyo, do S2, S1, S3, reset skills if lucky, repeat, tag to Mai
- Mai, do S2, S3, S1, reset, repeat, tag to Athena
- Athena S1, S2, S3, reset, whatever + basic attacks (roll past Rugal's attacks) (keep doing basic till you get enough power for 3PG), 3PG, S3,S2,S1 tag to Kyo
- Now the Rotation starts:
- Kyo: S1, awaken, call striker,S2, S3, core super, awaken combo, tag to Mai with 20% bar remaining
- Mai: S2, call striker, S1, S3, 3pg, tag to Athena so she can take the hit from Rugal
- Athena S1, S2, S3, reset, whatever + basic attacks (roll past Rugal's attacks) (keep doing basic till you get enough power for 3PG), 3PG, S3,S2,S1 tag to Kyo
- Kyo: S1, call striker, S2, S3, core super, tag to Mai
- Mai: S2, awaken, call striker, S1, S3, core super, awaken combos, at last second do 3PG, then tag to Athena so she can take the hit from Rugal
- Athena S1, S2, S3, 3PG, S3, S2, S1 tag to Kyo
- repeat from step 5
N.Geese Lunatic
yes, this boss is hard and requires (so far) limited characters. It is generally the same routine, however.
