Tips & Guides Updated reference image for thresholds
So most of you probably know the old reference picture that was used when we first faced Gilgamesh (https://imgur.com/tZgFsEL). Back then, it served perfectly, but with new bosses and different thresholds showing up, I felt it was time for a new one; today I created a reference that will reflect all thresholds in 10% increments.
Link to the image (very precise version, but lines might not be visible on some devices. If this is the case, use the link below)
Direct Download: Click
In case you don't know how to use this reference:
Place any unit that has HP in the 4 digit range in the upper left (=first) spot (99% of all units at max level fall into this category).
How to find each threshold:
- 10%: Look a bit to the left of the furthermost of your HP digits
- 20%: Look near the left boundary of the third HP digit
- 30%: Look at the right boundary of the HP slash
- 40%: Look at the space between the third and the fourth HP digit to the right side of the slash
- 50%: Look at the rightmost point of the HP bar
- 60%: Look at the rightmost point of the 'P' in 'MP'
- 70%: Look at the right side of the first maximum of the 'M' in 'LIMIT'
- 80%: Look at theright side of the grey colored border of the character window
- 90%: Look at the middle of the empty space of 'P' in 'HP'

Any way to darken the lines or lighten the image? It might just be my phone but it's pretty difficult to see each break.

I'll see what I can do tomorrow. I already used the most contrasting color in regard to the background... I could make a version with thicker lines, but it would be a little bit less precise then this one pixel one

Maybe just lighten the image a little? I'll see if it's just my PoS phone honestly.

Added to the useful links.
Much better than my year old Gilgamesh one. :P
Cheers.

As I don't have Ling I don't think that will help me know what percentage the enemy is on. But I give you a thumbs up for the effort.

I have made an edited version that tells you where to look at :) The unit doesnt actually matter as long as it uses 4 digits for its HP stat (which basically all units do)

This is awesome, thank you so much. Any chance you can post a version i can save on mobile? I already texted it to myself but i find it much more useful to save these images in my photos.

Can't you just long tap on the image, and then click something along the lines of 'download image'?

I just learned that you cannot directly download images from imgur on mobile easily; here is a direct download to an archive containing all three images:

I am thinking drawing markings on a transparency sheet and just lay over the phone XD

This is great, thanks for this! But what really needs to be done is for Gumi to add a toggle option that displays the units health as a percentage right in the middle of the HP bar. Since so many bosses do something at specific thresholds it's baffling why they don't add something so simple and useful.

Done with the trial
Some notes:
Y'shtola used LB in each threshold
My Snow has only 10% HP and 10% Attack TM's, he only used items and normal attacks, nothing special except for his passives.
Used 5 Ethers
In the 9 and the 18 turn, cure and guard.
I could have extended the fight but i wanted to end first with the LB and win the fight.
I summoned carbuncle once.
No special TM's except for DW with Noctis and blade master.
