I thought the name was ChronoBi Nd?
Can I really not read that font?

I haven't actually touched XIII-2 in a while (even though I've bought all of the actual gameplay DLC) so I was just parroting what Razmos said. But I do remember it was called ChronobiNd now that you've mentioned it.

Oh holy crap, it was Chronobind. lol my bad.
Sazh's DLC was so chocobo focused that i had birds on the brain.
Just tried out Jihl, the battle was annoying the first time, i spent too much time on the summons, so it was just an endless cycle. Retried and beat her 5-stars the second time, got her as a party member, she's cool.
Typhon and Ultros are pretty difficult, but it's really just staying alive while you stagger Typhon, a bit boring really.

What the pineapple why are Ultros and Typhon so hard? Every time I come close to killing Ultros, Typhon renews him. And when Ultros is alive it takes forever to kill Typhon.

Before i start, i'd like to point out that i've noticed a fun little extra from the recent DLC, when i booted up the game i got the usual "Previously on Final Fantasy XIII-2" thing... voiced by Ultros. that was kinda unexpected.
Now onto the fights:
Gilgamesh: Anyone remember Yiazmat from FFXII? that one fight that took 5 hours? here's it's spiritual successor. I'm not freaking kidding. he has 9999999 HP. His stagger gauge is only 250% but guess what, if you stagger him, his battle style changes to a defensive and status giving style and at the end of the stagger, he regens to full health again. Wait no, he regens 999999, that's still bad.
Oh, and i'm pretty sure his attacks get stronger the longer you leave him without being staggered.
Yeah, so either i'm missing something or you are supposed to maintain his stagger so it doesn't go over while doing as much damage as possible.
PuPu: They are really making these fights awkward. optimize yourself to defense completely, attacking won't do much good in this fight. Especially give yourself Lightning or Fire resist items because they really hit hard. Switch to full sentinel when the PuPu start dancing and glowing, because thats when they are going to combine their attacks on one target. Still haven't beaten this fight yet, it's really tough. gonna try and use a Sentinel monster too.
Other stuff: Love Serah's new DLC costume, its free and it looks awesome. The music in Gilgamesh's fight was really cool too.

I found the three eidoleons difficult(They were pretty if that's not what they are aha) and Vanille vs Cauis alone challenging, same with Nabaat. I find Nabuut. Should I forget about trying Gilgamesh? lol

I've completed almost everything in the game, but i couldn't be arsed farming for the ultimate items, so i'm kinda failing on the DLC fights recently

Lightning and Snow episodes this week. Hopefully one of them will actually continue on from where the game left off. And hopefully they're not complete fucking garbage like Sazh's.
Also moogle outfits ^____________________________________________________________^;;;

Lightnings DLC seems interesting to me, and i seriously hope it's not a bunch of fights against Caius. Her unique paradigm roles are the most interesting, like Blaster Wizard and Shaman.
Snow's seems... alright. 2 boss fights (the hardest boss fight in the game, i still haven't defeated the last 4 or 5 DLC bosses) and a cutscene or two. Surprised that Snow is a commando, why isn't he a sentinel?

Just want to add a disclaimer but it seems like there is a small chance that we might not get those scenarios this week. All other DLC has been universally released which is why I made the assumption but so far it's only really confirmed for Japan and Taiwan. And wasn't mentioned in the PSN's Drop This Week.
