Lulu's overdrive with a controller...

[Coq_Pwner]

Simple question, am I the only one absolutely incapable of doing anything with her overdrive with a 360 controller?

I mean my record so far is like 5 with a -RA spell. I used to do like 6-7 FLARES or at least -GA spells back with an original ps2 controller. Is the mapping weird or is it a problem with my controller?

as it stands now the overdrive is barely any better than just casting a regular spell lol.

I use an Xeox speedlink controller which is basically a knock-off 360 controller. I got Lulu's overdrive for the first time earlier on PC and managed about four or five rotations and would put that down to the controller being battered at this point and the stick just not rotating quickly in general.

[Coq_Pwner]

My problem is not that I can't do enough rotation, it's that I rotate about 20 times and it just seems like rotations don't register sometimes. I'd be surprised if my right stick was that busted, I rarely use it honestly.

Same issue, original 360 controller, could do 8 to 10 times back on ps2, and now I have issues getting it up to 3.

No, having the same problem with an original XBOne controller. After about 6 multis, it just don't count any higher. However, somewhere in this forums someone said, it helps to additionally mash a button while turning the right stick helps. Didn't try it, yet

That's not how her overdrive works...your max lv and ease of raising numbers grows based on how strong she is. Early game you are lucky to get 5., later on it raises much faster and easier. With the same effort you will get 10-15+

All of the spell Furies get easier as Lulu gets more Magic stat, and get harder as you do get more spells in the Fury.

With 255 Magic, Lulu could reasonably toss 12+ Fire, with an upper limit around 15. She could reasonably get 5 Flare, upper limit or 7 or 8.

With that in mind, any difficulty getting counts is EITHER her low-ish Magic stat relative to the spell and count wanted, OR your means of inputting the rotations... possibly Both.

this is because ps controllers have less movement, so they easier to rotate, I think most I have got on this controlle ris about 4.

Ooooh yeah I forgot about that, maybe I'm just used to a fully maxed Lulu. I guess I'll see later on in the game

there is a issue with that. when im using overdrive flare it says use right stick to rotate. if i use ultima it says use left/right key, and that works but the stick is not recognized.

This needs to be a sticky so people won't create this same thread every single day for the rest of eternity.

Anyone saying "that's just how the fury works" isn't listening. With a controller, I'm lucky to get 2 casts. On keyboard, I can get 5. This isn't about stats, this is about the game not recognizing rotations right.

[Andullivan]

I'm also going to necro it to say there is an issue with using a controller. It just really does not want to recognise rotations. I just used her overdrive, and it counted only one out of 15 rotations. 1 spell.

[ShinkuTear]

It is definitely possible that controllers are having issues for some people. Just, please keep in mind that Fury mechanics are not explained decently by the game, so some people assume the issue is tied to the mechanics of that mess.
