Ovelia SSB, Vanille SSB, and Mustadio SB. Ehhhh, more medicas for CM content coverage I guess? I have 7 now, 3 with m-blink but 2 of them are FF4 and 2 are FFT.

Punisher (Fang SSB) and Raines' Gloves (Raines SSB). Not a bad pull, for drat sure; an Imperil Holy will go nicely with Celes's Lightbringer. :getin:

I'm a little :psyduck: that the gloves are an actual mage fist, though; who can use MAG-oriented fists other than Raines, Reno, and Red XIII? (Tyro excepted, of course.)

EDIT: I suppose there's an argument to be made for handing them off to ninjaspell-Yuffie, if nothing else.

Onion Knight, Edge, Yuffie, Vayne, and Thancred all have actual uses for magic and can use fist weapons, in addition to the ones you listed. If we ever get Blue Magic, you can add at least Gilgamesh and Gau to the list as well.

These dentures won't stop me from tearing out jugulars in Thunderdome.



Got a dupe Overture, Hawkeye, and Kaiser Shield. The shield seems pretty good (is it basically Full Break? I can't tell from the description), not sure if Hawkeye is anything special but I guess having an 8-strike Holy attack will be nice against bosses that are weak to it. Seems like it could also be handy to stick on a ranged fighter in the back row, but the game keeps giving me stuff for a front-row physical team so that isn't too useful at the moment. Got plenty of 5-star swords already so I guess I'll combine the Overtures.

Got a 4-star Diamond Armor and a 3-star Ice Armor too, which is always welcome.

Kaiser Shield is an attack/magic break, which is superior to full break because it means it stacks with full break and normal breakdowns. Also the shield is +lightning damage. It was one of best SBs in the game when it first debut and is still really solid today.

Doh. Look's like she's going to have to use R2 Exploding Fist for a few months.

Took care of all the classic Tactics and FF3 dungeons already! I'm tempted to do the Lucky Draw now just to get it over with... I'm not gonna get more than five pulls anyway, sure, whatever, I'll do it.

Three 13 weapons, with Fang's Partisan, Snow's Winged Saint, and Sazh's Sirius Sidearms. On the bright side, some actually good melee synergy for FF13 for once. On the lower side, none of them are particularly interesting Soul Break wise. Ah well. A gun that's better than the Running Fire I had for ages is still nice.

Moonring, Physicians Staff, and Hawkeye. No game changers, but not a bad haul! :toot: First piece of III synergy gear. I'm excited to finally be able to throw Hope onto the team, and it's nice to give Vanille a sidegrade to Oerba's Boon, even if I never use her over Selphie's Dreamstage or Aeris' White Materia.

Sirius Sidearms is XIII's only Faithga as far as I can recall, even if it's only a 20% one. XIII is also one of those realms that can just fit a full Mage team (Sazh, Vanille, Hope, Raines, Serah), so you can combo it nicely with OK's BSB for Haste + Protect + Regen along with the stacking Faithga. Snow can even combo the ATK/MAG buff with Meteor Crash.

I'm probably just gonna pull a duplicate Heroic Shield on Onion Knight now that I've pulled one, I can feel it in my bones.

Full Break yes, Power breakdown no.

It is a lightning boosting sword though, which could be worth it if you like Kain or Lightning for future SBs. Kain especially since he can use Lightning Dive. And more so if you have the Kaiser Shield already.

Got Serah's Gloves and Vega 42s. After almost 18 months, I finally have my first 5* XIII physical weapon (not counting the freebies, obviously). It's a little awkward for my A-team (although Tyro can use it), but it's a native hastega for XIII and both Sazh and Lightning can use it so it could be worse.

Considering the gacha luck I've been having lately, that could have gone worse. Just two more weeks until Larsa...

2/11: Heroic Shield and Desch's Sword.

I'll take any amount of FF3 (or FFT) synergy, so I'm happy with this pull even without considering that one of them is a Hastega.

Again a very likpatous story
I feel lucky.



...ooooh...not that lucky I guess. I already had a Starseeker, so I guess that'll just get turned into a 6* since I can't imagine needing two bows for XIII content. And well, I have something for Mustadio now. Not the one I wanted, but a high chance of slow is something nice to have? I really didn't need any more Tactics synergy though. I was hoping for III and XIII stuff.

YUKIMURAAAA!
I pulled Vega 42s. I remember a year ago when that would have been cause for celebration. As is it's still a Hastega for XIII, and physical synergy.

I also got Delita's dagger, and Ovelia's robe, so if you count this draw by how many Hastegas I pulled it's pretty strong.

Pulled vanille's binding rod, Snow's Power circle? I dunno I have two fists for Snow now. And oh yeah, Platinum Sword. I spent so long trying to get SG or Shout, and then I finally got SG from a dollar pull a couple banners back, and now I finally have Shout as well after I started adding ALL the Shout RWs.

AstraSage

A small XIII-centric pull for me: a Power Circle for Snow and a Skycutter for Hope (as well as Rinoa and Edea if needed...)

A bit fortuitous because those two ended being my highest leveled XIII characters by the time the Raines Event ended thanks to Snow's Paladin and its Interrupt SB saving my rear end in a lot of Elite Bosses and Hope being the Designated White Mage because I tend to avoid expending Souls for Off-event Characters I couldn't pull their relics like Vanille was back then.

Now to pile up Mythril for Larsa 2.

<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!

Now that I'm thinking about it, my primary team for FF13 is sort of hybrid leaning towards Mage, so the Sirius Sidearms are actually a pretty solid boon (ha) to it. But it also conflicts with Vanille's Protect-granting Medica, so I'd probably throw in someone different unless I wanted to do a Cid Mission. But I'll see how they do in the classics. I also threw in Lightning with the Partisan, maybe I'll swap out for Fang at some point but Lightning's at level 80 so she has more of a pressing use to me at the moment. Though now that I think about it, Dragoon abilities are ranged so Fang can still put in work with the Spear despite it being a front-row weapon... hmm.

Man, I can't wait to see whose SBs I'm mastering next Sunday. Might be a whole mess of stuff.

Half off pull netted me a FF3 Moonring blade for Refia. Sure, okay. As well I got my 2nd FFT Platinum sword. Two good weapons for FFT is nice. I didn't really have much for FF3 either so that's something too. Sure, worth 25 mythril at least. :)

It doesn't conflict, per se - it's a redundancy, sure, but that just means you have double the reason to never pack Protectga. Oerba's Boon is still a medica, and Godsend is still a High Regen + Faithga.

It's not like how Shout conflicts with War Dance; in that case you end up having to choose between a weaker Boostga and medica or a stronger Boostga and Hastega. Running both just has the weaker overlapping the stronger any time you try to heal.

Lucky pull is lucky. First pull since banner one of BSB fest and I got Mustard's gun, his vest, and Lust Dagger for Luneth.

Tactics was already my strongest realm, but now it's ridiculous. Luneth's dagger, on the other hand, is my first FF3 relic.
