Right, as much as I'd normally say keep rerolling for an uber unit, Leather Bunny Singer is limited and pretty drat decent for a new player (and easy to gear, important). Not only that but we also have Rain's 6* as well so you can use those to carry until you snag an uber unit.

Type 0's units have some real odd animations.

I mean, I like Ace's victory animation because it reminds me of Refia's, but Seven... I think that's her near-death stance?

There is a way to unlink your account and then link a new one, but it sounds like kind of a hassle (you basically unauthorize the app in FB and log completely out of everything).

I would just create a fake FB account and set everything to private and upload a few token pictures, add some close friends, etc.

Honestly if Edgar and Luna are you best characters I'd reroll so fast when Orlandu hits. Forget Ariana, getting the best unit in the game guaranteed, is going to last you a lot longer than a free unit that isn't even going to see play in many F2P parties.

Sleep, rest, do your best.
So if I have all the tickets and gigantaurs from Akademia, would my time be better spent running Hidden Maze rather than trying to get the six star materials from Akademia? Since I haven't bothered pulling for any Type-0 characters I know it's not worth going for the Trust Moogles.

You know what this game needs? A real money auction house. To sell evolved units and the like. Gumi could take a cut of the sales - everyone would make money and everyone would win. There is no down side.

The $50 bundle is a better deal than just buying $50 in Lapis, but it depends on how much you like to :shepspends: towards Gumi...

If you plan to use the Lapis for macroing, it's a good investment. Save the tickets for the never gonna come Orlandu banner.

I know the 30k Moogle isn't really worth it since I macro, but man is it tempting when Cecil is at 88.6% I can just get him to 90 and wait for the end of the month login Moogle I guess.

30k is worth it if you have 3 banner characters and can bring a friend Ace or Seven. The Doublecorn seems to appearing more frequently, to me at least. The 70k? Hell no.

Edit: when I say it's worth it, I mean in a sense of trying to stash as many moogles as you can. It's not unthinkable to get 10 of them and be able to instantly get a TM reward if you get that rare pull some day. Otherwise yes, the energy spent on the 30k moogle is probably more efficient to spend on 5 characters macroing.

Hmmm. I can do Pro with 4 Treys and 1 Seven of my own with a friend Noctis and kill the 2corn every time. May just do that and see how much I end up with before I pick.

Fuzzy pickles!
I got all my main dudes (CoD, Cecil, Refia, Noctis, DFina) leveled, finished the current story, beat the first 3 trials, and got 2 hero rings cooking with one done and one being farmed. I'm not real sure what to do after that though. TM farm I guess? Level espers? I'm also working through the colosseum but I'm not gonna waste lapis on energy refills there.

Edit: Just pulled my first Zidane so TM farming it is.

I have so many cactuars right now that I can't hold them all. Not sure if doing the maze is too good for me then, but there's not much left for me to get from the type-0 event so maybe I should just level up Rain or something

It's not difficult to get all the megacites and we are getting a new esper soon.

There's always going to be a new esper down the road and we have gone through some megacite dry spells. You might have enough now, but there will always be more needed.

Well, the next three espers are Titan (orange magicite), Lakshmi (neutral), and Tetra Sylph (green magicite), so I guess I'll buy the green and orange ones and hoard those.

The downside is Gumi would actually make less money, a lot less. There's a reason no gacha games do this (aside from laws that might prohibit it) and it's not because a multi-billion dollar industry hasn't thought of it.

5* ExDeath hit 20/20 on his Limit Burst, so he got a 6* upgrade. 3350 points for level 21...goddamn. Level 25 is going to take a while. At least I can actually start using him now!

Just got to this point with my leveling Cecil. Once I awoken him to 6 stars I was able to cactaur him up to 100 and switch out my original Cecil. OG Cecil is also almost done cooking an Excal too. Once that's done, I'll sell him for Gil and probably shed a tear at the same time, but I have no use for two maxed out Cecil's, especially since WoL is due for 6 stars soon.

This King Mog has sacred crystals and megacite which you may not need now, but could always use later. Both of those don't usually show up in the King Mog store.

For a swift one at the wrist, down on the old main drag.
So are those dodge materia worth it for someone like chiz instead of the usual 10 Atk one? I always have a hard time lessening my units Atk when they are my dd dudes like chiz and noctis. I don't have all the megacites yet so I was thinking of getting those first and seeing if I have the time left for the other materia

Don't forget to check for moogles above the door!

Did March of the Beasts. Challenges are cool, but I don't play mobile games to have to play for 30+ minutes at once. Only one close call against Chimera and Antlion. Had 4/6 dead all of a sudden due to Sandstorm/Aqua Breath, used a phoenix down to get Refia back up and survived that turn and then dual full raised to get things back on track. Only used 1 Phoenix Down and 5 Turbo Ethers. Butz killed himself at least 20x during the fight and was the recipient of all the Ethers. If I though about it more I'd have given him the Esper with Osmose, oh well. Had Refia, Cecil, Butz, Dark Fina, Lightning and friend Noctis.
