Is it worth diving Alphinaud to Black 5 if I have his BSB? I'm always hesitant to spend that many wisdom motes, and so far I seem to be getting along fine with just summons on him, but it is tempting to give him access to chain spells and stuff when I'm up against a single target boss.

If you use him reliably I'd say yes. 5* black magic is good and summons are expensive to hone and you may not have enough mileage to get through some of the ultimate fights.

I give Alphinaud Meltdown and Tiamat, I basically never looked back. Well, sometimes for Tiamat, but never Meltdown.

If you have Meltdown, dive him to Black 5; it's the one button you can push that's actuallybetter than his burst command. (For a single button push - chaining the burst command together is still better, but en-winded Meltdown is great for when you end up with a one cast gap before BSB recast or whatever. I guess also tiamat if you push his Mag sky high but you want him dived for that too.)

I really do think something's gone completely screwy with the ATB bars lately. I definitely do not attack first if I have one character with a full ATB bar, the trash will always attack first no matter what. If I DON'T have full ATB bars or close to ATB bars I can at least attack first sometimes

Don't waste it on stupid random chance draws! Instead, think of how large you could expand your inventory! You could keep every 1 star item you find for the next three months!

Looking ahead to future banners is weird because it seems like Tyro Selection 3, AOE Physical Lucky Draw, and another Dungeon Update banner will all be showing up right around the anniversary too. So many banners EDIT: I guess it makes sense for Tyro 3 to come in on the day of the anniversary

Aren't there going to be like 3 lucky banners in a row for the anniversary? I think the next Dungeon Update lucky draw is going to be in mid-April, but there might be another one of some kind popping up soon that I'm forgetting.

Yes, they're listed in the anniversary details right in the app. One a day for 3 days starting on the 22nd.

Just to expand on it a little, I'm not sure if it was already datamined to match the Japan draws but... March 22: Lucky Draw 1 - Curaga Strength Medica Soul Breaks (SSB+) March 23: Lucky Draw 2 - Enelement Soul Breaks (Not SSB+ if it's the same as Japan so prepare for Lightning's Corps Field Uniform/11) March 24: Lucky Draw 3 - Burst Soul Breaks March 25: Free 11 pull on the 2nd Anniversary Vote Banner Mid April? : Dungeon Update Lucky for III, XII, XIV. It'll happen really close to the Cloud of Darkness event, so new relics might be included. pichupal fucked around with this message at 00:20 on Mar 19, 2017 |

The mockups again, just to give you an idea of what you're potentially looking at drawing. 1: Curaga medicas 2: Enelement SBs 3: BSBs (They were made taking every relic that should be available on a banner by the time the Always Lucky draws drop into consideration, but it's not a sure thing that, say, the brand new VI stuff will be on).

ATK/MAG Breakdown with a 20% chance at OSB level damage with ATK/DEF and MAG/RES commands? Sounds great. Edgar's Enpoison BSB and Locke's Enfire SSB I care about less, but it would at least drop the odds of me getting another First Fusion Sword and the Corps Field Uniform.

Oof, six dupes on that medica banner, but I suppose it's still hard to justify not pulling on it to try to flesh out some of the other realms I don't have good healing for. Also jesus that BSB banner is deep, I can already feel it in my bones that I'm going to be viciously disappointed when I go 1/11 dupe again. edit: v- Grizzled Patriarch fucked around with this message at 02:44 on Mar 19, 2017 |

Once you get a Tiny Bee, getting another one might as well be considered getting 0/11.

Really just wanna see what's on the anniversary banners, tho

I can't wait to not get Ashe's BSB from the enelement lucky, the BSB lucky, and the mid April dungeon lucky. Maybe it'll be on a fest banner so I can not get it a fourth time!

After a certain point 90% of relics you pull will not be making it onto your A team because you've got The Good poo poo, so to avoid the general futility of pulling (or saving eternally for The Next Big Thing to chase) you start pulling for CMs

He probably has native medicas for nearly every realm to start with. If he still has a few he needs for Cid Missions he'd still be better off trying to get them from a banner that's less than 55% dupes

I did an ill-advised pull on XIII banner 2 because I really want Raines BSB... and it paid off. My current mage setup: Fujin - BSB and SSB, Raines - BSB and Imperil Holy SSB, OK - BSB and mage SSB, Faris - BSB and -DEF/RES SB, Rosa - MBlink SSB. BSB gets gauge priority of course but if I end up with excess gauge then the SSB/SBs can add some extra damage. Fujin has double +Wind equipment and Raines has double +Holy. Faris' Thief's Revenge is a flex slot Breaks: Full Breakdown, ATK, MAG, RES, MND, ATK+DEF, MAG+RES, ATK+DEF Buffs: MAG+ATK, MAG+DEF, Proshellga Default RW will be wall but my other ideas are pentabreak and healer BSB. Yuna's BSB2 could be fun with its MAG+MND buff along with extra damage from the healer slot. That's my story thanks for reading. Good luck to anyone pulling tonight
