Levi ex on ps3? Doable?

[joshsecret]

..Any tips / tricks?

ps3 player here. i had to do a few things to help learn/beat levi x.
1. turn camera speed up to 100% so i can 360 look at the map quicker.
2. turn off bgm so i could hear where the splashes were coming from better. unfortunately, time and time again i would have delays with the splash animation but could hear their general direction just fine.
3. learn the pattern.
4. i start from the center so my dodging movement is minimal. also i pull the camera back all the way but set it at about 45 degrees behind me so that i can see 9 o'clock to 3 o'clock and listen for the splash behind me and react.
5. lastly i use sprint a lot as a just in case.

on my 75th levi kill now and PS3 here

most of my wipes were DPS being slow rather than avoiding

Screw the zoom, surround sound is where it's at for Levi. You can quite literally hear where the dives are coming from before you see them.

It's not a tough fight.

The only thing that used to be really really hard on PS3 was Twintania divebombs, but after patches even that's not so bad.

Install a solid state drive in a ps3 and all problems are solved. I play on ps3 and can handle any fight just fine.

As someone that was one of the first on my server to clear it, I can tell you it is perfectly capable of being done on ps3. (This coming from a ps3 player) If you are having trouble wondering which side his slams will come from remember this easy tip;

After p1 he will slam down on the left side of the ship. From this point on he will ALWAYS alternate which side he slams down on. For example say he slammed down on the NW corner after p1, when he submerges for his dives & slam, his next slam will always be on the right side of the ship on the NE or SE side. ( the ps3 camera is plenty capable of looking at a whole side).

You can't rely entirely on the camera. You need to watch where other party members are moving. Especially for body slams.

Latency latency latency!
If i follow ppl i'll most likely be to slow.
In titan ex most ppl on my screen look like they got hit but they dodged at the same time i did.
So of course i won't follow them as i would appear on their screens doing nothing till 1/2 secs later.

i do follow ppl too if i missed to see the water ( happen rarely but still happen ) you got like 5 secs to move by the time you see the water its more than enough time to move if you are in middle

even in stereo you can hear it. After all you are combining visual with audio.

Again, if you hear a splash and you don't see it, it's a process of elimination.
Again ex: Levi will always do a splash the side he is fought from, never from the rear If you do not see it on your camera, then the process of elimination the splash is cross dive behind you and front is safe.

Th trick is being able to multi task enough and avoid plumes while you are making that judgement.
