Munoma posted:Sweet, I think I'll try to unlock that now. This list is generally pretty good: https://www.reddit.com/r/FFRecordKeeper/comments/591vry/musthave_record_materia_mciii_edition/ Just don't get intimidated by the size of it, it's just that there are a lot of good RM these days. The only ones I'd consider an absolute must are the two instant SB-gauge RM, as I was saying earlier.

Ehh, I'd say Ace Striker and Battleforged (SB gauge charges faster) aren't quite as necessary as Dr. Mog/Mako Might but should still be beelined ASAP. Making nasty fights in this game manageable is often an issue of SB access, and you'll often have more than 2 SBs you want out really fast. They aren't necessary on pure damage SBs, but stuff like Ark Blast you want to get out real fast, and if you need Wall and a Hastega IMMEDIATELY to not get murdered, there's your instant charges right there.

Attestant posted:^ Something to add to this topic: This is why the best mage RM is actually the now rather old Vivi's RM2, Devotion. +20% Mag, -10% Def & Res. We also got it absurdly early compared to Japan, too, since they added him and his MC to an FF9 event in global (Steiner's?) right when breaking the level cap was a thing.

When do we get desch' BSB? Wrath on an already solid mage is great stuff. Too bad Golbez never got that good, he looks cooler. drat has luneth always had such a nice skill set? And record dive options?

Mastered Ahriman, all thanks to that new staff (in Edea's hands). Also Freya's SSB finally coming in handy. Get hosed you meteor spamming piece of poo poo. I win. Forever. (Sorry balthier your sacrifice was necessary but you were doing close to gently caress all by the end anyway).

I decided to take a look at Refia. 5* Monk and Sharpshooter is a combo I already love on Jecht, and she can also get 4* Ninja so I'm a little intrigued. How good is her SSB in practice, since I also have that?

Works very well with OK/Celes BSB.

Dang, the new FFX event in Japan has two 6* items on the first banner, four BSB or greater items on both, and only SSBs filling out the rest. No unique/shared/no-SB items. Is this the first event with that format?

Why is Lionheart preferred over Knight's Charge for the role of "taking damage charges your Soul Break up faster"? Doesn't Knight's Charge also speed up the increase you get from using abilities?

Doesn't Knight's Charge also speed up the increase you get from using abilities? Lionheart is 150% from taking damage, Knights charge is 125% from abilities and taking damage. If there are enough hits coming out, lionheart is going to charge more, like in a situation with magic lure or draw fire.

Jose Valasquez posted:What's the better FFVIII banner? My synergy is garbage so I'm considering an 11 pull Banner 2 is better in general, Banner 1 is more damage focused. Go B1 if you want more offense versus stuff like Red Scorpion's Mighty Guard or Crescent Wish's Dreamstage, which are very strong support and healing SBs respectively. I did a 50 on B1, got both of Laguna's guns and Zell's SSB. I'm really happy, my FF8 synergy is finally fully shored up

I need FF8 offensive synergy. So I pulled. 1/11, another Rinoa BSB. I shouldn't complain about pulling a BSB but... I need physical relics! Guess I'll wait and see how this event goes before I rage pull again

No OverSquall on an 11-pull, but I hit the two things I actually wanted from Banner 1 and RinoaBurst to boot, so that's Mission Complete to me. (Squall's Jacket is a dupe of my Rain of Ruin-vintage one)

I got 50 mythril and went to pull on Onion Knight 2 in hopes of getting the sweet staff. Remember how people said that banner 2 was great and the only way you could lose on it is to pull Desch relics? Well...  At...at least it's III synergy...

MarcusSA posted:Dollar pull.... Man, I have yet to get anything from a dollar pull. I'm debating pulling on this; I am rebuilding my egg piles and my mythril stash a bit since losing my mind on the Kain and OK banners, and I could really use some mages with damage SBs of any kind; aside from OK's BSB the only mage damage BSB I have at all is Rydia's BSB, and she's not leveled. Now that I have a faithga in OK, I'd like to try and get some AoE muscle in so I don't eat poo poo on fights like that Flan Master U+. Should I pull here, or hold out for better stuff upcoming? I'm definitely going to pull on XIV either way; I don't have a native Wall at all, and having to RW it for hard fights all the time gets old. I'm not keen to pull on Keeper's 2 again either, since I did it once already, and I have 4/7 relics on there.

I want to put up my RW information but I've been playing the game on and off for a while and I only have about twenty slots left. I'd be willing to work with a few people with whatever crappy synergy is available. I do have Squall's BSB so I'll be changing that shortly. In short. Roaming Warrior ID is 31MG My non synergy attack base is only 357 currently. ;_; Use me, throw me away, give me your money.

Jedi425 posted:Man, I have yet to get anything from a dollar pull. Well I know Quistis' BSB is pretty good for AoE destruction and just really good in general. Only downside is it's Bio and it's difficult/impossible to Imperil that. Also that was a 220 Hashmal MP fight that I didn't think was going to work out but turned out we had the perfect party. Had a kind of crappy Bartz and Zidane doing wind damage, a Prishe and Fran that supported like crazy, a Zidane that saved all his damage for the very end when he chain OSBed, theirs and my Y'shtola that traded off Stoneskin II and Asylum and my Curilla who mostly just whacked him with Banishing Strike whenever he decided to buff himself, and a few times dropped Swiftsword for an emergency heal. Slow as hell but thanks to the Prishe giving Guts with her SB we we never actually lost anyone.

After thinking about it a bit I'm a little more okay with my pull than I was initially. Since those swords are for Desch who's a hybrid physical/magic character, that means that for III content, my Onion Knight will have a strong weapon that also boosts his magic, so he'll be great for ninja magic as well as physical stuff. Is there anyone else other than Onion Knight/Desch who really benefits from a sword that's more geared towards magic?

Panic! at Nabisco posted:Incidentally, MND has the same high softcap as MAG, but hahahahahahaha good loving luck ever hitting it. I'm...not sure it's possible? Even if it is, there are very few white magic attacks that hit enough to make use of it. I'm pretty sure it's possible, at least in JP. 452 equipped MND, +20% from Burst, +30% from MAG/MND buff, +30% from MND/RES buff, +20% MND from RM = 1100 MND.
