You’ll want to take any Primal spells you have, plus Surpanakha, plus some single or multi-target spells on the GCD. It helps to target these, although in most cases it’s not strictly necessary as other spells will still do damage, just not as efficiently. Many of the bosses and adds have elemental weaknesses. You can check with the Celestium attendant when you go to enter each fight to see which bosses are immune to death spells and which aren’t, but note that he won’t tell you about the status of any adds that pop during the fight. Doom and Tail Screw are less useful since they’re hard to hit with, but better than nothing! Launcher is also a possibility but the random damage and high MP cost make it not one of my favorites. Level 5 Death is a must, and Missile is very good. These will make many of the Carnivale challenges MUCH easier. You may occasionally have a use for Mighty Guard, but since it reduces your DPS output by 70% there aren’t that many fights where it’s actually all that helpful. You will definitely need to take Diamondback. If on some other stance, take White Wind and Exuviate. If you’re going on Healer stance, take Pom Cure, Gobskin, Angel’s Snack, and Exuviate. Tank stance isn’t recommended as it doesn’t really help. DPS stance can also work if you’re good at dodging. I suggest using Healer stance for these fights as it allows cheap, powerful, reasonably fast heals and increased MP regen, both of which are extremely useful. Here’s a list of recommended spells to take in! Note that in multi-act fights you CANNOT swap your spells after you begin the challenge, even though you are out of combat! That works in dungeons but it doesn’t work here, so if you need special spells for a particular challenge make sure you have them active and on your hot bar before you go in.

You also might find a use for Echo drops to remove silence in a fight or two. You can even take potions if you feel like it - Grade 2 Tincture of Intelligence is considered the best for a level 70 Blue Mage.

Take along some good caster food and a decent set of spells. You should meld all your gear with as much Critical Hit as you can, then Direct Hit, then Spell Speed. Mirage accessories can be bought from Maudlin Latool Ja at Ul’dah (12,13) with Allied Seals but not until you open the “Master of Mimicry” quest.) Your weapon doesn’t actually matter, but if you want a tiny extra edge, pick up the Incendiario weapon for 800 Allied Seals from Maudlin and slap a couple of Savage Aim V materia onto it. In order to clear the Masked Carnivale with the least amount of stress, I recommend that you first level your Blue Mage to 70 and then make sure you have a reasonable set of ilevel 400 gear for them (some combination of Augmented Scaevan casting gear, Omega Savage gear, Eureka casting gear, and Mirage gear from the Blue class quest.
#TACTICS OGRE SPRITES TRIAL#
This trial does count toward the 30 stages you need to clear to earn Angel Whisper, meaning you can skip one of the other trials entirely if you choose and still get the spell (I would suggest skipping #29.) Level 70 Update: One more trial was added to the Masked Carnivale for level 70.
#TACTICS OGRE SPRITES HOW TO#
I have not included any information on how to earn the various possible achievements available through the Masked Carnivale, such as Perfect Blue, nor have I given any info on how to do the weekly bonus challenges my intent here was to make it possible for people to get through all 30 challenges and learn all the Totem spells up to Angel Whisper. It describes each fight and one reasonable strategy for clearing it. This guide is intended for people looking for a basic clear of the current 30 challenges in the Masked Carnivale.
#TACTICS OGRE SPRITES UPDATE#
I promise I will update it for level 70 Blue Mage when I get a chance! All the strats I’ve given will still work, though some of the new spells will give you new options for defeating specific challenges. ** NOTE: This was written before the latest drop of Blue Mage content.
