Poochy ain't Stupid.
I might be.
Beatrix's Thunder Gloves and Auron's Shimmering Blade! My X synergy gets stronger.

I'm happy to have an SB for Beatrix, but I'm going to be chasing Quina's HotE to put the Qu in my party and the Banner it's on has the Gloves and the Ultima Sword that I already have ...3.

Honestly happier with the 2 4* XIII staves I got because that will literally be my best Staff when combined.

<click> <click> What is it with this dancing?! Bouncing around like fools... I would have thought my own kind at least would understand the seriousness of our Adventurer's Guild!

First 0/11 since Black Friday. And I used real money. That stings, but it wouldn't have stung as badly as a normal-priced one.

Ever since our drop-off service, I never read a book.
There's always something else around, plus I owe the library nineteen bucks.
I got Zack's Buster Sword. It seems like a decent SB and I'm happy to have some more VII synergy that isn't an event item, so I can't complain.

0/11. Hopes raised, and promptly dashed, thanks game. Can't wait for the conspiracy theorists to raise an uproar on this one's draw rate.


Crashdown Abyss might actually be painful compared to Ultima, given my lack of powerful physical soul breaks. But it does give me a good excuse to play with Drill and Windburst, so glass half-full.

Could be worse, especially since I was gonna start levelling Gilgamesh anyway :)

June for Sabin, July for Sephiroth, and probably early August for Butz.

Sephiroth's Katana could help you with the current 7 event though, regardless if you have him or not.

Edit: There's a Soul of Hero in the Nightmare Dungeon, but that might be hard to get for you. There's one in the Palom/Porom event which should be easier to grab.

Jesus gently caress, 300 mithril and change for 2 generic 5* relics during FFT... three 4* and eight 3* relics on this "Lucky" Draw

If they're trying to dissuade me from ever spending a dime on this game including 100 gem pulls, it's working

Same. :toot:

The last 100 mythril I spent on the FFT banner got me only a single off-banner 5*, but this makes up for that let-down (and means I now have a good SB for both Ramza and Agrias, to boot).

Jecht is good! He's a physical powerhouse with access to Combat, Monk and (soon) Darkness 5, along with solid weapon access and Celerity 4. If you want to use a Monk in any capacity, Jecht's a very good one.

I went against reason and jammed the Drills together into a pointier drill. I really want to use Edgar once his MC2 hits, so this will make that a lot easier.

Well, 3 of the nightmare dungeons down so far, and they've all been pretty easy considering my physical team options. 5 more stam for the last one and then I'll probably work on the last boss at some point tonight.

Roland Jones posted:

How good is Gil's SB here? The secondary effects seem alright but not too necessary since I'm going to be trying to keep those up constantly anyway, so I guess it's mostly down to the damage (and I guess being useful in long, grueling battles).

But yeah, I am very happy with my results here.

It's just a LITTLE stronger than his first (Death Claw) at a 5.13 vs DC's 5.10 potency. The Shell/Protect/Haste are nice though, but Death Claw's got a 21% Paralyze chance. But all in all, he's good to throw Lifesiphon on and go to town on people's asses as he drill pecks his enemies to death (At current with Scream+Full Break/Defense Breakdown he can hit about 7k to max per hit, so a good 1200+ easy without it on a decently defensive target.)

this, too, is physics
After a poo poo run of 0/50 pulls, I finally grabbed another 5* weapon! Mythgraven Blade for Cecil. Even if it's poo poo, it's my first FFIV synergy weapon. Is it poo poo though? How good is Cecil and this soul break?

edit:

thanks record keeper, that push notification was really useful while i was in the middle of playing the game

Alright, sounds like I should get to work on a second, maybe a third Lifesiphon for him and maybe Bartz (who I'd have to make and egg up and stuff so not the most pressing priority admittedly) or Steiner, and just general future use really; I am stocking up for Beatrix's SSB and all after all. I can get one up to R2 now if I crack a Major Power Orb, which is probably worth it. At the least, it should help with this Ultimate and Ultimate+.

I could definitely use some more combat gear. Let's pull!

7 3*, 3 4*...and a Brave Blade (V)!

Kain's Gungnir (which has a nice -DEF/RES effect for the SB, even thought it's only one hit) and Seifer's Hyperion.

Nothing too great, but that's a pretty good draw anyways.

You should have read the 5000 reminders that you HAVE to use dispel to hit that particular medal requirement. Literally nothing else counts. Hell, it even says "with Dispel" in the requirement.

You only get one lucky draw per nightmare dungeon. It will come around again in 6 months when they release the second combat abyss.

For sure it does. All that damage you have to churn out and it forces you to waste a slot on a non damaging ability.

I mean, not entirely. By that time we'll have more combat relics to choose from. But next Lucky Draw in late May will be all White Mage weapons and armor, so look forward to that. Now you can get Sentinel's Grimoire OR Thyrus! (No guarantees.)

I'll probably do the Empty MC2 boss first like I do, and proceed from there as stamina allows.

I like the Revolver taking precedence over the SSB there, like the game thinks that's the highlight of that draw.
