2/11 my third Mace of Zeus (V) and a Wizer Rod. Funny how my pulls just before the Anniversary are making the Ultros Select less and less attractive.

I have good news, and I have bad news.
Which do you want to hear first...?
I ended up getting Eiko's BSB and Penelo's SSB. I had neither of those so I am pretty happy.

Don't you think you should put more thought into your battleplan?!


So I got this record keeper game. So far it is not lame.
One thing I needs must know, is how to get the great Shantotto.
Does she unlock as a dungeon hero? Or must I use a soul, I've got zero.

You need a soul, but they can be acquired fairly easily in the weekly events: usually you get a soul around the level 35 dungeon (you can probably clear it pre-35, esp. with a good summoned friend).

So I've started combining the random 4*s from all my pulls and is it just me or are there a lot of VI realm relics? In the interest of saving mithril I'll probably hold off on pulling on this banner as I have like 4 4++ relics in VI alone.

You can use a soul, and you probably ought to for characters who are particular favorites. That said, you can get her without using a soul on April 20, along with four other FFXI folk

Edit: I stand corrected. As stated below, she's really easy to get in the realm dungeons. Don't use a soul.

None of those are dupes, but the Physician's Staff might as well be with how many goddamn mage sticks I have for the XIII realm. But that's my only complaint. Look at that! Look at it!

Pray that you get something better than Garnet's! :v: Hers is the only healing BSB I have, and even then calling it a "healing BSB" is something of a technicality.

Actually, Shantoto is a reward from Waughroon Shrine normal dungeon in FFXI. You don't need a Hero Soul at all to recruit her. That dungeon unlocks fairly early in the dungeon chain as well. She's the 8th character available.

I might be.
No dupes, Vanille BSB and Sarah SSB :toot:

Didn't have a Medica for either of those realms! Vanille's BSB will be replacing Penelo's BSB as my healing BSB.

Now I'm just missing Medicas for V, X, XIV. And uh, XI but that doesn't count yet.

Are you loving kidding me!?

I have 5 of the 18 relics in the medica lucky draw, all ssb's. I got 4 rainbow orbs from the pull, they were all dupes. Aaaaaggh! I really needed medicas for other realms, and I really needed a burst medica to be able to handle torment dungeons. Dammit. :(

They aren't even good combines either! Ok, maybe I can use the ffii staff for a second black mage in that realm, but all the other ones don't fill a single stat stick role apart from white magic.

Maybe I'll keep my second ffv zeus staff so lenna and exdeath can do poo poo? I dunno, I'm probably gonna combine them all. This is just like my ffiv pull from the last event where I got like 5 5*'s and 3 were edge's light armor.

Edit: Actually, my osb rod is 186 mag without synergy. So are the ssb staffs with a magic stat on them. So they're all pretty much worthless.

I never realized how many people didn't have a healing BSB. I guess I've been taking them for granted because the game kept dumping them on me. I have 4 of them so far somehow, and I've pulled dupes on two of those.

Of course the only one I ever use is Vanille, except in those two white magic Nightmare dungeons. I have Eiko's, which looks like it might be good for my physical team, but she's so drat squishy and has no record dive. Should I try her out anyway? Is the crit boost really all that noticeable, and is it worth the drawbacks? It already feels hard to go back to anything that isn't instant cast.

It is nearly a 25% increase in damage for physical teams, assuming you aren't already capped.

Oh, well poo poo. I haven't looked too closely at the formulas and stuff after the attack softcap got raised, but I'm guessing I'm not capped most of the time anymore, so I might have to give Eiko a whirl.
