Elephant Ambush posted:Thanks for the advice. I'll be putting everything I can into OK for the forseeable future. I'm always complaining that nobody can use the "other" Protectga or Shellga so that's a no-brainer for me. If you're willing to spend the stamina, you don't need to egg Onion - just drag him through the event XP dungeon. It's Sundaily but with FF3 synergy. By level 90 or so he should be able to solo it with a strong BSB RW.

When the enemies can hit for 1500 damage or so through ProShellga, the game is basically yelling "You have to bring a Wall, dumbass!" I didn't bring a Wall, but I had to get a little creative and can afford to lean on Paladin Force. Leaning on Paladin Force has gotten me through a lot, not gonna lie. Team: PCecil, Saint Cross/Lifesiphon, Paladin Force, Mako Might DCecil, Dark Bargain/Lifesiphon, Soul Eater (30% ATK Boost), Dr. Mog's Teachings Kain, Leeching Leap/Lightning Dive, Rising Drive, Illustrious Dragoon Rosa, Shellga/Curaja, shared Tungsten Bangle medica, Cetra's Destiny Porom, Protectga/Curaga, shared Royal Scepter medica, Desert Bloom Equipment: synergy poo poo, whatever Thunder resist I had on hand RW: good ol' Divine Guardian Now granted, Paladin Force, plus Soul Eater giving me a Boostga meant I could just roll with Divine Guardian, but there are ways for this to work out. The Flan Master dies real quick to Lightning Dive, I didn't even need to use it more than twice and Rising Drive was useless, I ended up using it to finish off Flan Master when it was a hair away from defeat so most of its damage ended up being overkill. Is Divine Heal your only IV SB? If so, you may need to roll with two healers like I did. It's a game of rocket tag to drop Flan Master, cleanup after that should be manageable.

Panic! at Nabisco posted:I prefer Ashe RW for that fight just so you can delete the flan master with single target first, because gently caress that guy and his ultimate thundagas. Both are valid! Garnet's AoE is slightly stronger, and gives you more healing options; Ashe gives better single target damage, and a self heal option. That said, if you need an FF4 geared Ashe RW, here's mine: 9qBd It'll be up until I'm done farming black crystals from this dumb 60 stam U fight. Just 3 more to go and I'll be able to R2 Meltdown within the next six months rather than who knows when.

I need any FF3 synergy BADLY, so I was happy with insta-medica with physblink, but to know it's ALSO a holy-booster is fantastic. Very happy. Gonna wait to pull tomorrow to see if I get gauntlets/lunethspear in the lucky pull, and if i don't I'll come back and give OK1 a pull.

Lately I've experienced the game minimizing itself at random in between battles, often when it's trying to load the dungeon progress or home screens. (Once it occurred during a multiplayer session, but usually it doesn't happen during battle.) The app doesn't actually crash, but minimizing itself to my tablet's home screen is effectively a crash given that it has to completely reload the game. What developer options should I be fiddling with to mitigate this? Edit: I'm running this on an Android tablet, not iOS. NGDBSS fucked around with this message at 22:09 on Nov 24, 2016 |

Oh poo poo, 50 mythril over 10 days? Wonder what to blow this load on. I'm assuming the next OSB is a ways out? Or are there useful things in the current banners. Also should I just grind orbs for the time being due to being worryingly behind on abilities.

Hmm, all this new free mythril is making a second 11-pull more tempting... If I'm sitting at 50 mythril right now and my only FF3 synergy is the Lust Dagger I just pulled, should I make another attempt here or just keep saving for Minfilia and the XIII banner like I'd originally planned? It's basically a month out from those two, correct? I still have a bunch of core / elite dungeons to grind through for mythril too, so I could probably hit 150 mythril just in December without a whole lot of trouble, but I have no idea if there's gonna be other lucky draws / good Nightmare draws in between now and then that I might want to pull on, too. edit: And I'll probably want to spend some mythril on refreshes during Orbfest too...ugh why is there so much amazing stuff coming up in such a short window.

Ended up not using either of those strategies, but I still managed to pull it off. Just took me not being dumb with equipment.   Note: actual RW used was Vessel of Fate. So Edge didn't last long, as he was only level 50. He did get off an Eblan Dual Wield against Flan Master for a little over 15k damage before he went down at least. Rydia was first to summon the RW and then it was the Spellstrike/Bahamut (and then Meteor) combo as it lasted. Cecil and Rosa put up mitgation and Cecil did weak SCs before he was taken out. If he had survived he would've been the second RW summoner. What helped the most though as opposed to my first failed attempt was giving Kain and Rosa lightning resist accessories. That made all the difference. Oh, and getting lucky with the RNG and not having Flan Master reflect Flare off himself to kill a party member. That helped too. I really, really need more magical equipment synergy for IV.

There's nothing to be gotten by finishing the EXP dungeon more than once is there? So that way I can just RW a BSB and do the first stage over and over again. But I'll complete it if that's somehow needed to possibly get motes.

In multiplayer beta news, finally managed to get into a good group and down the U+ Ifrit fight. Gave up on the Wind-boosted Cloud + Fang strategy and instead opted to go full support with Vaan and Faris debuffing the ever-loving poo poo out of Ifrit while everyone else set up buffs, tossed out heals and blasted Ifrit with spells. Go team pirate!

How does OK compare to other spellcasters at 99? Trying to decide on how to set up my groups. I have mostly physical SB's, but with those gauntlets, hybrid groups could work well, too. And I already have Shout if I wanna go pure physical.

And I already have Shout if I wanna go pure physical. At 99 with maxed out dive, Vivi has 254 MAG vs. Onion Knight's 244, with both having Black +9%. So it's not a very significant difference, and Onion's BSB Command 2 is excellent. OK's big weakness as a caster compared to others is the lack of En-Element, but that is offset by Command 2 being basically a zero cast-time -aja. rare Magic card l00k fucked around with this message at 02:28 on Nov 25, 2016 |

After noticing that Luneth's BSB Command 2 lowers RES, I was wondering if there's some story reason why he's so low in resistance. His low RES counterpart, Fran, has the whole "susceptible to mist" thing in the story, but I can't remember anything that would justify Luneth having the lowest RES score other then Core Dragoon.

What wacky stats the Knight has. Working on him has made me finally need to taken one of my HP+ accessories out of the Archive. I have to confess to doing my worst whaling so far on the recent banners.  FFIII #1 because of the Knight and FF4 #2 because of  , 2 11-draws each. Didn't get either of their relics in the end. I got Kain's and Luneth's insane spears though. The guaranteed 5 really does soften the blow of ponying up the real bux and not getting exactly what you were aiming for...

Zell's BSB is the real standout on the banner IMO. Another party crit buff is neat, 10 hits with chance to stun, plus dark bargain and powerchain BSB commands. Laguna's boostga and Ice imperil are neat, too. It's overall not a bad banner, it's just in an awkward place with OK banner this week and the desire to save mythril for OSB fest and XIV god banners next month.
