Octopath COTC Defeating Ri'tu in 7 turns #RituRace
This is a viable strategy to beat Ri'tu in 7 turns. I used interesting 4* characters in the form of Menno and Noelle - their windprone stacking allows Odette to attack all the time. NOT F2P.
Odette's A4 also helps immensely since it stacks with Menno's passive for a 30% passive wind down +. 30% active wind down from the windprones
This strategy obviously focuses on Odette's insane power but I think it can be adapted to multiple party compositions.
