I really wish exp distribution ignored max level characters. :( It would be so rad to put four pre-levelled dudes in alongside krile and get her just lovely ridiculous levels.

No problem, also, if Dracu Lasswell is dual wielding, Black Mist fires twice, for anyone that didn't know that part!

Honestly, at this point, the disappointment I get from pulling a lovely 3* is probably less than the disappointment I get from pulling a valuable 3* and having it be loving kefka again.

Even when I win, I can't win.

These last two banners have actually been nice for 3* character pulls. I've gotten CoD, Exdeath, and Buttz for the first time in my last few pulls and I don't actually feel cheated. :unsmith:

I got a warrior of light for my pull. I've been using my tickets from the cheap bundle too, and got a second bartz. Is it worth getting two double hands or should I fuse them to get one faster?

Since I started doing this macro poo poo my shantotto/omnirod guy team has basically doubled their TM% already.

CoD and Exdeath are both pretty serious firepower. Exdeath & pals dumping magic is half of my arena strategy. The other half is cleaning up stragglers with CoD

Refia/Cecil/CoD/Exdeath is literally my party. (well, okay fine, I *do* have Lightning on top of that, but hush.) That is a super solid team.

Just for confirmation because I've never done this and don't wanna gently caress it up: If I want to fuse 2 units for 100% TM I need 1x 50% and 1x 45% correct?

I have a few pubbies on my friend list, from when I just started and was sending friend requests every time I picked a rando. One of them for the longest time has had a level 7 Agrias as their friend unit, I take 'em along if I'm just faffing about with earth shrine exploration for the daily or cleaning up lapis missions, because lol the friend unit absolutely doesn't matter.

This morning, I noticed it was a level 9 Agrias. Keep going li'l buddy you'll get there :unsmith:

Materia Doublehand stacks with Innate Doublehand

You know who's easy to get, eventually gets Awesome, and has Innate Doublehand?

Garland.

It's definitely worth getting 2 unless you're drowning in Dual Wield/Innate Dual Wield/5* Base characters.

Real quick question since I have both sitting around. I have mentioned before how I have three Arcs sitting around and have been working on getting them all up to snuff so I can duelcast like a madman. So that being said should I drop one arc and put in Exdeath or just keep team arc going?

Scrublord Prime

Exdeath is a better mage than Arc. 6* means better stats, get killer passives applied to magic, and he gets Meteor which can be dual casted. Drop an Arc for Exdeath.

Also, I'm still chasing an Exdeath and Gilgamesh this banner, I've pulled three more CoD's and five more Bartz'. I've got him coming out of my butzhole.

Related to Exdeath questions, how many do I need before I can start fusing them off? I'm at god drat 6 of them. Trust mastery macro'ing is not something I plan on doing if that makes a difference.

e: Same question but for Bartz and Alma

You'll hit your head and say: 'Boy, how stupid could I have been. A moron could've figured this out. I must be a real dimwit. A pathetic nimnal. A wretched idiotic excuse for a human being for not having figured these simple puzzles out in the first place...As usual, you've been a real pantload!
High level arena is just awful. Either you go first and win or you go second and hope the opposing team doesn't RNG gently caress you. I hate that it doesn't accurately reflect the leader information as well. Clicked on a 1500~ point guy with Cecil as lead, turned into: CoD, Luneth, Luneth, ExDeath, ExDeath. He went first and thankfully the only skills that got used were 1 Meteor and Barrage. While I survived the meteor, the Barrage was on a dual wielding CoD with that stupid golem staff which proc'ed three times and left me with CoD and a near death Kefka.

I did not win that one.

It stacks, you just can't equip more than one.

If you have it innately, it doesn't count as having one "equipped", so you can equip one, getting two. If there's ever an equipment that grants it, that'd stack too.

If they give an equipment with it and eventually an esper with it, then you could have 200% equipment bonus which would be fun!
