Hayate, nah, not great for battle, but his TMR is important for min-maxing ATK. Best source on headgear in the game still, I believe. I've got a four pack cooking as we speak. For Mesmerize, I just looked for a friend unit to borrow. Anybunny higher than 5* lvl 21 should have that skill.

hamburgers in pockets posted:Are the exclusive stat materia for Jack and Trey even worth the phantoma? They're good enough stat increases, but even with those they seem like really subpar units. You can get 40% elemental resistance and 60% ATK with Trey. He's a hybrid Firion/Cloud of Darkness who can only use bows and never gets any of Firion's or CoD's 6* good stuff. It really depends on how good your pulls have been.

If anyone gives a poo poo about the economics of the daily bundle, the equivalent of lapis will give you a +0.49%** chance to pull Orlandu on his banner for a trade-off of 100 lapis, 700 energy, 70 gigantaurs, 14x keys/p. downs or vice versa. I did the math here. *[edit: changed rainbow pull chance from 1.5% to 1.0%] **[edit: changed rainbow pull chance on bonus +1 from 9.76% to 5.0%] dangerous.hotdog fucked around with this message at 05:29 on Jan 24, 2017 |

I did the math here. 180nrg + 80 cactaurs is worth more than 1 ticket of difference. Even if you value tickets at say ...350 lapis, 180nrg is worth at least 150 lapis, and 80 cactaurs is worth more than 200 lapis to all but most crazy frugal. Not saying give Gumi money, but it is a deal in comparison to normal offerings.

Considering the fact that Trey is essentially Artemios without the killer skills, he's a perfectly acceptable starter unit. Once you have a full team of 6*s he's benchwarming.

So has anything been released about the new exclusive units yet? I've got a ton of lapis itching to be spent on disappointing rolls but only on the failed hope of a good unit.

If there's something as good as Orlandu, or even as good as Noel, I'll be sincerely surprised. Chances are we're going to get things that would be Ace-tier or worse. That is to say, I'm predicting "somewhat useful if you get it on your daily, don't waste tickets"

What do we predict for Xiao? I'm not even sure what her speciality is in the first place, at least Medius and Cerius had defined niches. I don't know what higher tier abilities brawlers would get. Speaking of which, Medius 6* is so poorly made his ultimate ability is somehow affected by Silence. You'd think silent guns would be good or something.

I'd have actually been happy with Kain cause I could really use a Gungnir. Equip Spear doesn't help when the best spear I've got is Lad Mirazh, Fang.

Thanks, for some reason my notice board and Summon screen don't update until a good hour after they're supposed to. Also, I'm not so sure about the banner being bad, because this Ling lady is Global first AoE reviver, on top of being an MP battery. Seems like she's a Rikku-lite, although I'm sure she'll be worse. Also if Yun's TM armor stacks with Champion Belt it might make the Katana/Fist Firion build even more ridiculous. And it's even light armor to boot. If nothing else, I enjoy this game making me theorycraft about TMs I will never get. HGH fucked around with this message at 10:10 on Jan 24, 2017 |

This chocobo knight tmr seems insane for tirion, maybe I should swap out my Zidane #2 on the tmr squad and start cooking up xiao in prep for tirion 6* Of course this relies on me getting a Snow and Chocomonk which is a pipe dream but theorycrafting is half the fun

The ad for the upcoming Lunar event says the boss is susceptible to full break so get your Rain awakened to 6 stars and max him out. Shouldn't be too hard with the maze this week.

I don't know what higher tier abilities brawlers would get. Her attack stats look insane as a 6* because she has a passive that gives her 50% extra damage when unnarmed so they are artificially inflated. Outside of that she has pretty standard stats for a 6*. It all depends on how much of a boost she gets from her berserk ability. Even then she'll scale horribly without a 50%+ damage ability linked to a weapon and I dont think global gumi is going to bother giving her an enhancement like that for her passive even though it would make her a great cheap unit.

# ? Jan 24, 2017 14:27 |

I'm hoping for innate dual wield seeing as she only has a single weapon type, more likely is a "fist weapons count as unarmed" type passive if they wanted to actually make her viable maybe

I've got a ton of lapis itching to be spent on disappointing rolls but only on the failed hope of a good unit. My 5* Xiao (and the two 3* dupes) prays for relevance beyond her TM. The 5* base could be interesting, his TM looks so-so. The 4* base appears to get an AOE revive, among other skills, and her TM dagger looks pretty solid. Hope everyone likes encountering whale arena teams full of physical units carrying those things in addition to the other status effect weapons.

Elza is pretty drat high-rank, too, though it's not for any sort of "this was broken out of the gate" reasons, it's just that having a -50% DEF/SPR debuff is real good.

Keep in mind that in order to trigger this requirement (and any of the "kill with" requirements), you only need to use a damage item (or the thing) on the turn that the boss dies. It doesn't actually have to be the killing damage, it just has to be one of the things in the pile of killing damage. McSpankWich fucked around with this message at 18:47 on Jan 24, 2017 |
