Octopath CotC: Thief Tower EX5 (5T) Stable Clear

Not F2P. Version 2.4.00 (12699)

Speed control is very important in this clear, so pay close attention to turn orders. Even if Great Thief puts up Shield Guard at the beginning of turn 2, we can still clear in 5T. However, in order to optimize damage we would instead attack with both Nicola and Billy onto Great Thief to ensure that Therion can break in 3 hits at the beginning of Turn 4.

Viola was given Serenoa A4 and a defensive (+854 p. def) Fortune Dagger to help us eliminate most of the RNG on turns 1+2.

Billy was given a speed dagger to make sure he gets the ult out before we start nuking.

Therion needs to be faster than 586 speed, since this is Great Thief's Speed after we apply Billy's Ult (20% speed down) and her 3T speed buff initiated turn 1 wears off at the end of turn 3. This is of huge benefit, as it prevents her from buffing her own defenses again, which makes a dramatic difference. (we do roughly 50% more damage this way)

Falco should be given his own A4 & Anniversary Scarf, while Nicola should be given Meena A4 in order to further enable Falco's to be at full HP at the start of Turns 3/4 even if the add decides to use his AoE on Turn 1, and the Great Thief targets Falco with a single hit on turn 3. (365+500 = 865 regen per turn in front row). I had a slightly different item configuration here, but the aforementioned is more optimal.

Cheers!
