Ultimate Mastery Survey - Garland【U】

Hi Masters!  
 
We saw some great Insights! contributed last edition. I am glad to see the new feature along with strategy names take off, and I'm personally enjoying seeing everyone's strategic and creative thought process, keep up the good fight!

 
Adel and now Garland, a welcome reduction in intensity after Bahamut Sin! Though Garland is officially an Ultimate, he is has a lower difficulty level 120 (vs. 140) and 40 (vs. 60) stamina costs. However, don't underestimate him since many will be lacking realm synergy. Make sure you pack enough punch to get through ~170k of hitpoints.
 
P.S. I've made some improvements in format mainly around the survey template section. Keep sending in your feedback, they are appreciated.

INSIGHT!

• Protectga and Shellga+Magic Breakdown(+Full Break) is fine. SG/SSII aren't really needed for the most part. by u/The-Dusk
• Mighty Guard (VIII) is A+. Shellga for magic damage, hastega for DPS, and Heavy Regen heals only slightly less than the damage Garland deals. by u/klarmar
