[corneille-moisie]

Hello people !

I run @mouldymp3rotations where i hand out at least 5 free mp3s per month :3

For pretty much the rest of the year, I will be focusing on visual kei bands that built the foundations for my love for vkei, which is turning 20 this June !

I already posted the first one here (I thought I would get the obvious ones out of the way lol)

Now, I have several packs ready to be turned into post, but i don't know where to start, so I thought I would ask :)

Hi, sorry i'm late again, I had a few other things to do, and I ended up forgetting about this month's rotation lol (also i wanna point out that this is the DIXième rotation \m/)

This month, I had made a poll to let vk tumblr chose for me which rotation from my 20th anniversary would be up next. Here are the results :

First of, I wanna say thank you for voting ! I was absolutely expecting to not get even 10 votes on this lmao. Thank you for participating in my little experiment eheheh.

As usual : Song titles link to individual mp3 file download

All 5 songs can also be downloaded together in a zip file from the link at the bottom

So here what I had in reserve for Deathgaze, Dir en grey, Gazette, Mucc, and Soroban :D

DEATHGAZE - Dies Irae

I did not realized this, at the time, but I literally got introduced to deathgaze with their very first release... which was with their original line-up, which is also how I got to discover Hazuki and how I also got introduced to lynch. with their first release too :D

Dies Irae was released on 294036224052, in 2004 (the whole thing is worth listening ♥)

Dir en grey - Obscure

A fucking classic. I said in the previous entry that I originally didn't like dir, so this one came after I gave them another try. I spent my last year of high school listening to this song in a loop in between moi dix mois songs lol

Obscure was on Vulgar, released in 2003 (which also is still in my top dir album ! I also still think the original version is superior to the 2011 version, but that's me :3 )

(sorry that's the only one that doesn't require signing in apparently)

GAZETTE - The $ocial riot machine$

Now, I gotta be honest, i happened to lose interest in gazette very fast, as they are one of these bands that the visual is more interesting than the music to me. Today, I think they are a good base to get into visual kei, they were back in 2004 too, even if they were babies :D But between 2004 and 06, I was also looking for heavier faster songs, and this song here scratched that itch (ngl it surfed on the wave pop is dead created lmao)

The social riot machines was found on the album Disorder, released in 2004

MUCC - 我、在ルベキ場所 (ware, arubeki basho)

HAAAA this song is still so very effective on me. Mucc went all over the place, and I like some of their songs from all their eras, but I think their early 2000's is my favourite. Actually I think ware arubeki basho might be my favourite mucc song. Anyway you should listen to mucc ! Mucc is also the opposite of band like the gazette, to me, cause i spent a loooooooong time listening to them without even knowing what they looked like except for Yukke lol (and even then, if he hadn't his blond bowl cut............)

And I just learned that ware, arubeki basho was a single released in 2003, before being on 是空 (zekuu), later that year.

(wow i had not watched that in.................. 20 years lmao)

そろばん (soroban) - -RAM-

Soroban is a band only me knows...... ok no lol. But i knew them before Yumehito went to Ayabie (two thumbs down tbh) I also spent the longest time with only that song from them because, in 2004, I didn't realize how fucking indie visual kei was and I wanted more soroban, but all I got is that soroban is the japanese word for an abacus... i ended up finding their (really short) discography years later and was almost disappointed that -ram- is their only song sounding like that (the rest is good too, actually, just less heavy and more kawaii i guess)

-ram- was the A-side of the -RAM- / オレンジ手紙 初回限定盤 (-RAM- / orange tegami) single, released in 2004 (orange tegami is also a very good song !!)

and I can't find -ram- on youtube (there's the 2006 re-recording i didn't know existed though) so here :

Fear, got a grip hold Fear, pulling me below Can't see what's coming down the line Humanity's slow demise Prepare to die all alone It eats away at your soul Until you suffocate Never feel the weight Just over medicate

Years, an eternity of piss Here's your apocalypse

Fear, tearing at my soul Fear, taking all control Can't see what's happening you're blind Can't see what destroys our minds Don't you want to die alone There's no need for false hope We'll never be the same Everything has changed It's making me insane

Years, an eternity of piss Here's your apocalypse

Can't you open your eyes You can't see cause your blind Takes a rodent to know How far the virus will go

Final Fantasy Record Keeper Deathgaze Magicite Fight

The fights in the 5-star Magicite Dungeons in the Final Fantasy Record Keeper (FFRK) mobile game are quest level 400.

Deathgaze is the dark Magicite that’s weak to the holy element. He takes reduced damage against magic and ninjutsu attacks.

Turned my attention to the Deathgaze fight since there’s currently a time-limited mission that requires you to fight this Magicite.

My holy tech, especially my physical holy tech, is pretty lacking. Thankfully, I already have an Odin in my Magicite deck.

And this is only a 5-star quest so it wasn’t that hard to fight against Deathgaze even if I don’t have multiple BDL relics for all of my physical holy chars.

My team for this fight did well enough. Even managed to get sub-30, beating Deathgaze in 22.54 seconds.

But there was no way I’d even consider bringing this party to fight against holy-weak Argent Odin (this is quest level 600), not unless I get more relics for them.

Anyway, my team for this fight was:

Angeal Hewley from Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII

Have Angeal’s Awakened Arcane Soul Break 2 (AASB2), Synchro Arcane Soul Break (SASB), and Limit Beak Overstrike (LBO).

Usually, if I have at least 2 BDL relics for a char, that’s my cue to make their Hero Ability.

Since I have Angeal’s AASB2 and Sync, I should make his Hero Ability. I want to, really I do. And if the resources to make these abilities weren’t so scarce, I would have gladly done so.

The problem is the scarcity of these resources and the fact that Angeal’s Hero Ability is pretty bad.

His damage is also kinda lacking even with a fully complete Record Board. He does have some supportive capabilities too, but still.

It feels like he’s trying to be both a DPS and a support but he does neither well. I do hope he gets new and better tech soon.

Nevertheless, I’m glad that I have some of Angeal’s relics, especially his AASB2 because the animation for that features Genesis Rhapsodos from Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII (#ad).

Currently, Genesis is my absolute, most fave Final Fantasy char. He’s the reason why I’m playing Final Fantasy Record Keeper.

I’m also really glad that I was able to include Angeal in my physical holy elemental team.

Even got to use Angeal for my first win against the Final Fantasy VII Dreambreaker Dungeon fight alongside Genesis and Sephiroth from Final Fantasy VII. SOLDIER Firsts team FTW! LOL. I talk more about that fight in this post.

Agrias Oaks from Final Fantasy Tactics

Only have Agrias’s Sync and her LBO. Wish I have her Awakening too. Then I could have made her Hero Ability.

Agrias did pretty well even with just her Sync though. With it, she can imperil holy to help boost her damage as well as that of her fellow damage dealers.

Lightning (Claire Farron) from Final Fantasy XIII

Have Lightning’s holy AASB, holy Ultra Soul Break (USB), holy Arcane Overstrike Soul Break (AOSB), and holy Glint Soul Break.

Wish I had her holy Sync as well as her lightning tech. Like Agrias, Lightning did pretty well even with only one BDL relic.

Elarra from Final Fantasy Record Keeper

Ultra Soul Break 1 (USB1), Magika Album

USB2, Magika Orare

Glint+ Soul Break (G+), Magika Amuletum

Glint Soul Break (G), Magika Pius

Elarra served as my healer. She can provide Regenga and hi fastcast. She can even help buff the party.

Tyro from Final Fantasy Record Keeper

AASB, Fantasy Grimoire Vol. I

Arcane Overstrike Soul Break 3 (AOSB3), Triple Phase

USB4, Arbiter’s Tome

USB3, Divine Veil Grimoire

USB1, Warder’s Apocrypha

Glint Soul Break (G), Purifying Grimoire

Burst Soul Break (BSB), Keeper’s Tome

Unique Soul Break 2, Sentinel’s Grimoire

Legend Materia Relic 1 (LMR1), Archival Secrets

Tyro was here to Wrath and Entrust and support the party with his AASB and USB4. The aforementioned Soul Breaks can increase the party’s critical hit chance.

These relics combo very well with Elarra’s Magika Orare which increases the party’s critical hit damage.

Since I refused to make a Hero Ability for this team, I found myself having to contend with a shortage of 6-star abilities to equip to my holy DPS.

Since Angeal was more of a support, I gave him Healing Smite which deals damage and restores some HP to one ally.

Angeal’s second ability slot has Omega Drive to build up his bars faster though I just ended up spamming Healing Smite since I didn’t try to combo his Sync and AASB2.  

Agrias had no choice but to equip 2 5-star abilities - Divine Cross and Guardbringer.

Lightning got the 6-star Great Form abiity although it’s stuck at rank 3 of 5 because I ran out of resources to max it. Her second skill slot has the 5-star Assault Sabre ability.

Conclusion

So what about you? Have you tried fighting against 5-star Magicite Deathgaze yet? How did it go? What team did you use? What do you think about this fight? Feel free to share your thoughts and opinions by leaving a comment below or by reblogging or replying to this post.
