Is everything in NG+ Expert a one-shot?

[Umie]

Just asking cuz my lvl 70 Monoco with 7k HP and a bunch of defense is getting one-shot. Just go full offense and git gud?

Well, where are you at in NG+?

right at the beginning

im just wondering if defensive stats have any purpose, or do i just go max speed and luck

I've yet to go into NG+, but I hear so many say it is very very easy. Your issue may be the fact that you entered it at 70, instead of clearing all endgame content first. So it may just end up being harder overall for you now.

Gotcha ok.

Yeah NG+ is easy because you yourself can go first and blast everyone before they get a turn. but the subsequent NG's (up to 5) are apparently one shots for everything.

NG+ is pretty easy. I lost interest in my NG+ play through due to how insanely overpowered even funsies builds get.

Were you going first and one shotting everything before they got a turn?

If you do all of the game's content in your first playthrough, including Simon where you want everyone something like level 90+ with like 200+ lumina each if you are doing him with mediocre damage output, then you steamroll through most of the NG+ content.

End game balancing is pretty whacky, unfortunately.

Yeah I'm nowhere close to this, I left over half of the exploration for NG+.

Should still be viable if you go at it, but all that stuff is going to be much harder now. If you like the challenge, then you should find some enjoyment!
