It's the death spell from Vanille.I've tried but the spell doesn't work for me.

I've tried it several times including at Titans trials against the neo-ochu #45 and it didn't work and against the rampaging adamantoise in the lobby at Eden.

Any suggestions.
It isn't critical just wonder why it never works for me when allegedly it does for some people.:oops:
 
The spell does work you could cast it a hundred times and it won't work it depends on the monster if it can be killed by death and the weapon and accessories you have on Vanille. I think the Malboro wand helps to improve the success rate and any accessories that speed up the ATB help so you can cast more death spells.

You will notice when Vanille casts the death spell she will say not this time which means the stupid spell didn't work and I think the other one was something like gotcha but I can't remember been a while since I played the game but from what Vanille says you should know straight away if the spell worked.

The death spell is stupid and whats even worse is they only gave it to one character keep trying it and you will eventually get lucky.
 
It works. Eventually. Equipping her with the Malboro Wand is a good start. the only use for Death is defeating the Oretoises. Makes them much easier. After you summon of course. (Knocks them down.) I don't know if it works against Neo-Ochu. It might, I never fought it so I wouldn't know... I could check my guide sometime, though I hate it.
 
Of course I have the marlboro wand.
I've also tried imperil, if that "sticks" supposedly that improves the chances of the death spell working.
Of course you can go on youtube and watch others successfully use the spell, they say keep spamming it until it works but generally you have a limited amount of time before the adamantoise, ochu or whatever you're using it against kills your party.

I'm close to finishing the game.After that I probably will return to grand pulse to try to finish all the trials/hunts.Not a fan of doing this post game.They should have gone ahead with the dlc project and not abandoned it.

shrugs.

thanks for the advice.
 
I don't think Imperil increases the chance. that only affects elemental resistances.

Curse/Vigilance on the other hand are said to increase the chances.

Hrm... I don't know what else. Haste is good. xD
