Built in response to the oracle giving me a chimera as my card of the day...
At first I was like ... What the **** am I supposed to do with 5 chimeras?... Then my brain sparked an idea

Strategy is simple, Salvagers and SoFo provide the hp, sparks provide the attack power. Play salvagers and SoFo first, then fractal the ball lightenings and POOF you get a beefy chimera. Often exceeding 20|20.
My best so far was a 32|103

SoFo is probably not widely available, so Armagios can probably be substituted instead... That gives a little more survivability to the setup, but you will lose PC capability in doing so.

Any suggestions are welcome. I've only tested it on poor hapless level 3 AI's so far, but I get some pretty impressive sized chimeras in a decent amount of time, so maybe theres potential.
If nothing else, its fun to do.

Sounds like you need a catapult or two.

edit: Now that I think about it, fractal armagio plus catapult could be a lot of fun.

Be right back

Fuck!!! Damage is way capped getting 68 on a 200 + monster to get even 100 you need a 300+ monster it seems.

Add a freeze maybe?

Yea that works better.

This at least beats an AI3 and AI4 now...  The stall isn't enough for most FGs...

Further tweaking by someone will be needed...  but it's an idea.

Last time I checked, I think 200 damage was not possible with one Catapult toss (did you mean one 'pult toss or one "turn" of possibly multiple tosses?).

Formula for damage is:

(Damage dealt) = [(Target creature HP) * 100] / [(Target creature HP) + 100] with a conditional bonus of * 1.5 if the target creature is frozen.

Working through the math again just now, I arrived at and recall the maximum damage from one catapult toss being 149 damage dealt - and that is with at least 14,900 HP creature (so not currently possible within confines of Elements).

I used limit 1.5*(100 * x / (100 + x)), x->∞ which results in 150 damage with an infinite HP creature.

That's what I found out, didn't know the equation though...  that's good to know.  Too bad

For FGs like miracle and such, you can go pseudo-OTK and get a field full of armagio and two catapults in play, plus an armagio, two chimera, and a fractal (and a freeze or two if necessary - haven't done the math on total damage) in-hand, then chimera the field, toss it, armagio, fractal, dump armagios, chimera, toss that one also.

That's really a stretch though so against anything that doesn't spam healing you're probably a lot better just chipping away.
