Octopath COTC GEP Think Osvald hit count is low? Think again. Sweeping the Hell fights with most HP
So they tell you Osvald's hit count is low, right? Well, in the last fight versus Sonzon (9M HP) Osvald deals 2.5M damage himself in a single turn besides enabling Cyrus to also reach enormous amounts of follow-up damage. No gacha A4 accessories. Teams and loadouts after each fight.
Note that all these refights are against enemies weak to only one of fire, lightning or ice. If an enemy is weak to 2 of the 3, Osvald is even more bonkers.
Even in the ice fight versus Sonzon (which is the weakest because Isla doesn't hit ice) we still manage to require 1 break (though not as smooth).
Osvald's hits during the last Sonzon break went like:
172+355+178+162+355+169+355+355+355k = 2.5M damage
00:00 Cursed Lady Herminia (8.7M HP - lightning)
05:43 Team and loadout - Cursed Herminia
06:21 Fallen Mendoza (7.3M HP - fire)
11:29 Team and loadout - Fallen Mendoza
12:00 Sonzon the Flameguard (9M HP)
20:53 Team and loadout - Sonzon
