Had 168 mythril saved by the time this banner hit. So here goes for 100-gems and three 11-pulls. I'd really like a BSB since I went through over 325 mythril between OSB fest, FFXIV and Lucky Draws and only got Hamelin. Since Agrias is on my A-team already, hers would be nice, but Orlando's OSB is sweet also. 100-gem: trash. First: 1/11 for Mythril Gun. Decent, it's a stacking AoE full break which is nice for the FFT multi-target bosses. Second: 1/11 for Venetian Shield. Good, though I have Kaiser Shield and Defender so most SB gauges are going towards Cleansing Strike. Third: 2/11 loving finally! This will give me some Imperil Holy to help fuel Cecil's Paladin Force, and draw fire without needing Gaia Strike. Edit: VVV This exactly. Holy purification of all enemies!

I got all three items for Ovelia and Mustadio's gat on my one budgeted 50 pull. It's... kinda underwhelming, actually, but oh well. At least I can hyperbreak now!

100-gem pull got me a Lambent Hat, so yay for that. It'll go well with Ovelia's staff that I pulled a little while back. 11 pull just got me a Mythril Gun, which... well, I won't say no, but I feel way overdue to get me an OSB. Just one. Just one tiny little OSB...

Blegh, 2/11, two Venetian Shields. Probably should have known better to pull on this banner between the dupe odds and the duds, but I wanted a shot at that OSB. Ah well. Guess having some Tactics armor will be nice every few months, but the SB it's stapled to is pretty much useless to me.

So as a crazy person who's been stocking mythril since thanksgiving for orlandeau i'm in this until i get both his relics or i'm out of mythril! let's take a journey! and done. did a summon pull since i had leftovers! edit oops missed a picture of a pull. it was empty but for another saintly excalibur. so yeah i got 2.

Dr Pepper posted:Put both on the team. The issue with that is that my first slot on my melee team is basically locked down by Refia, another slot is locked down by Tyro for SG, and then I need the last two slots for a support and a white mage. So only one slot is open.

And so I dumped my last 50 Mythril into the banner. Got Excalubr, Healing Staff, Mythril Gun, and a dupe Kaiser Shield Not a bad pull at all imo.

For those who pulled and didn't get the big ticket items (Orlandeau OSB, BSB, and Agrias BSB), please remember that there is a high likelihood that they show up somewhere on the 2nd Anniversary banners. Don't go full tilt right now, because it isn't worth it (is what I keep telling myself).

# ? Jan 27, 2017 02:58 |

Bah, Agrias's SSB and Mustadio's SSB. I can no longer justify pulling because my synergy for FFT is now pretty good. Oh well, at least I got a Hyper Break out of it

So Agrias BSB commands are 250 potency divided across two hits. Factoring in the 20% boost from her Imperil Holy, that totals 300 potency. WoL's ATK command, if his DEF is high enough, goes to 240 potency divided across five hits. Factoring in the 50% boost from his EnHoly, that totals 360 potency. Agrias.

Didn't have enough for an 11-pull (mage stuff is more important to me than physical at the moment, since it's my biggest gaping hole), but the urge still gnawed at me so I did a stupid 3-pull out of desperation. Got the Kaiser Shield. Can't complain at all, stupidity was rewarded! Social Psychology posted:Is Orlandu actually viable without both of his relics? Yeah, he is. Spellblade/Combat/Celerity/Knight 5, Darkness 4 (that can be Record Sphere'd to 5, IIRC), great stats to back it up. His BSB is basically Full Charge tier as far as how long it takes to queue up. It's not meta-defining on its own, but he gets native access to Powerchain so it's not as much of a liability as it sounds.

The point of Imperil's is to increase the team's DPS. If you have both Agrias and WoL on the same team, WoL is now hitting for 432 Potency and getting extra SB gauge.

Even then, I already had a viable Imperil Holy available previously in Edward BSB, a BSB I should really use more often given the stacking debuffs on the burst commands. This of course means that when imperil gains the ability to stack that things will start going crazy.

For 50 Mythril, this works. The Kaiser Shield is #4 so that finally got me off my rear end to combine the first three, and two BSBs including the Orlandeau one is stellar. Didn't get the OSB but can't justify chasing that with my FFT synergy now (and my 5 Mythril!)

It feels so weird to finally be tapped out on mythril after hoarding it for that giant chain of really good banners. I dunno what the hell I'm going to save for now. Second anniversary I guess? Nothing else coming up looks all that exciting.

I still have a couple hundred Mythril to pull out of story mode and I'm in no hurry to pull on anything else, so Second Anniversary is my plan.

I feel like I shouldn't have pulled at all, I was just hoping for a new toy for team holy. Oh well, I guess some day I can dump 3 million gil into making an 8 star gun with no effects

Thunder Godding should last 25s regardless of stats, same as things like Wall.

The problem is it's on Mustadio, who is sort of like Laguna in that he excels in Machinist stuff... and sucks everywhere else, making him hard to slot into a team. You'd basically be bringing him solely for his SB.

100 gems: Lambent Hat 50 mythril: My first OSB, too! I budgeted for 2 draws because my Tactics synergy is bad, but I think I'm done with this banner now, especially since I already had Kaiser Shield and Ovelia's Staff. Not even sure if it's worth pulling on banner 2 for another weapon, though. It might just be better to drop that mythril on the Nightmare banner.

This game really doesn't want me to have a mage team. It does however enable my physical A team. Welcome aboard OSB Orlandu. Two things: do OSBs crit and is it best to just lifesiphon x3, OSB rinse repeat?

I really want to be annoyed that I haven't pulled an OSB yet, but I've gotten so ridiculously lucky with BSBs I don't feel like I can talk. In the 3 or 4 months I've been playing again I've drawn 11 BSBs, including Ashe, OK, Kain, and Orlandeau. Really, I've been crazy lucky, but still... my really big numbers...

I really think BSBs are generally just more useful than OSBs anyway outside of certain scenarios (e.g. Orlandu OSB or an enelement + OSB combo). Being able to have cool effects like Gafgarrion's healing on an attacker BSB expands your options more than just having yet another way to deal big burst damage. Or maybe I'm just sour that I have Hope's OSB but no enholy, and no OSB for my numerous enelement characters.
