I'm kind of jelly that you guys are all getting Orlandeu. Maybe if I complain about it...NinjaDebugger posted:My test is still running, but I'm gonna say it now. I rushed Kiyomori from the event shop and now have an Ifrit-soloing Lightning up. She is currently halfwayish through a solo of Elite. It will take a LONG time, but if you want to use her, do as much damage as you can, then make sure auto-limit is ON (her limit breaks defense) and hit auto, then check in on it every once in a while. It'll get you an elite clear, guaranteed. Thanks!

I didn't really solo it, though; I went with one of my units and let them die so they can reap the sweet 30k exp. The total auto-attack time was a little over 1.5 hours. Totally worth letting my memu run in the background (my only worry was the app crashing) for those sweet 18k raid points. Thanks! AAA+++ would cheese again

This Lightning thing is amusing. Ifrit is down about 1/3 of his life. I needed time to regain energy and orbs for stuff anyways.

I hope FFBE adds the multi-leader thing that Gumi put in Brave Frontier awhile back. It let you set three different units as leaders, sorta like the 2-3 leader thing in PAD. I'd love to see FFBE use PAD's BFF system though.Khisanth Magus posted:You can get up to 7 gigantaurs or whatever they call it from the highest level for 15 energy. One hell of a deal. People who need a lot of EXP make sure you run dunes this weekend, FFT's 100 gigantaurs isn't going to be enough. I've got Orlandu to 100 (largely through burning several months worth of arena medal/ticket stockpiles) and Olive's level 56, but even after that is Y'shtola, and then Minfilia and maybe Queen #2 for more melee chaining madness. PaybackJack posted:Lightning is a better unit than Seven by a country mile though and while 30% is a pretty significant increase to the debuff, I don't see that holding up during a long battle like Ifrit or Gilgamesh. You know who does the chainsaw meta better than Edgar while making GBS threads out damage and being durable as hell? Orlandu.  I can't wait to get my Olive leveled so that she can finish off of Holy Explosion chains.  Tagichatn posted:There sure is. You lucky bastard.

Is it possible to make Orlandeau immune to confusion? I'm getting rather annoyed at borrowed TG Cids getting confused by the boss in ELT and loving me over. This latest one was on a chocobo spawn run too.

Earth Key: Ordol Port or buy one with star quartz from the fat chocobo in Kolts. e: Minfilia has a buff that gives immunity to confusion too if you got her to 6* lv92 too

Played from beta, got nothing until troll rainbow VLC Fina, got nothing, then Noctis, got absolutely nothing on after that, missed out on Ling after dropping everything I had trying for her but got Yun who finally got himself made useful with the raid, got a troll Mercedes before the gachafix, failed to get the obscenely broken Olive the same I missed out on Ling, reached a million raid points of pulls drowning in Thancreds while only having a droplet of Minfilia, but several Saharan deserts full of materials, getting steamrolled by endless accounts lower than rank 50 in the Arena with multiples of all the broken presbutan units every day, and I only do ten arena orbs per day. At this point I'm fueled mostly by hate. Ifrit has steadily been leveling down since the maintenance now that everyone else is done with it so it looks like I might not even get Y'shtola.

1 Daily pull of poo poo and 3 tickets pulled fresh off the event. Got my TG Cid. Apparently I'm getting lucky on banner Units for the Mog events. I got Queen in something like 3 pulls off the FFType0 banner And now I have to figure out what the gently caress I want to finish TMRing up over the next month to finish beefing out Orrraandreeeau

This is for PRO, and I haven't tested it yet, but I'd imagine if you can imperil ifrit and then something to help make sure orlandeau doesn't die first turn, 2 turns of his level 100 ability will probably kill ifrit.

One possibility is to look to non-friends Noctis and Lings and... whoever else can inflict the paralyze on Ifrit. If you don't see any you can reroll your companion list by restarting the app or doing some trivial content like the earth shrine. It's not pretty but it might be the only way to push on to 1.2m thanks to this stupid event overlap.

105 tickets over the course of several months saved up for this very moment. Pulled 1 rainbow out of those 105 tickets and it was Gilgamesh, a character I already owned. Welp, it was fun, but Orlandu was pretty much the only character I was looking forward to, so I'm gonna cut my losses here and move on. Ty for all the help goons.

Do what you gotta do, but if you're willing to throw away multiple Gilgameshes why not just reroll until you get a Cid?

When I was looking through my friend list for people to cut, there were quite a few from SA here that quit months ago and had either Lightning or Luneth. If you hit the lottery on the first 5* then quit a couple months later...well I get it but that's dumb. Similarly, if you really want Orlandu that badly then just reroll.

I grabbed a random 800+ atk Orlandu and took it in to Ifrit PRO and did 3.4m damage in a single turn  Then I took Fenrir's Orlandu in to ELT and killed it in 3 rounds by hitting it with shattering shot and then chaining HEs on it, with Fenrir being the sole survivor (shine TM dodges ftw) for round 3 but Ifrit was almost dead. Ended up being my first actual ELT clear. Kheldarn posted:Welp. My friend list now seems to be full of Orlandeaus instead of Noctiss. Guess I won't be getting Y'shtola. Use the Noctis friends to carry you through PRO runs if you can't clear ELT (or do more than 1/3 its HP in ELT before dying). You've got time and it's not like players can't run Ifrit and FFT at the same time since Ifrit doesn't use stamina (thankfully). CAPT. Rainbowbeard posted:I've done too much poo poo in this game to do it over again for just one unit I didn't pull on the first day of this banner. You can always hold out for Tidus, or Veritas, or Onion Knight. Orlandu's amazing but there are others who join him on top of the DPS mountain. Two tri-attack chaining Gilgameshes is pretty nice too.

So if you have 2 Orlandeaus and cast DR on each _immediately_ after one another, you can consistently create monster 27x Element Chains. It's loving retarded damage and NOW I understand how he's so broken.

It's loving retarded damage and NOW I understand how he's so broken. It's the best and I cannot wait to get my Olive leveled so she can drop her hits in mid-chain for ungodly amounts of damage. Thankfully Shattering Shot is picked up early in her 5* form so I already bring her for the 50% DEF debuff when I go Ifrit hunting.  Kheldarn posted:I can't clear ELT, and Pro is only a sure thing if I have a Noct to bring along, or most Yuns. Also, a lot of people stopped doing Ifrit, so his level is plummeting. Grab the high damage goon Noctis buddies (ideally with Ifrit for slayer passives), focus on chaining for the fire flask hits in the first round as well as chaining his Warp Breaks in the subsequent rounds. Refia/Cecil buff in the first round and if you can have someone toss out Imperil do that too because the elemental debuff will help. If you might not kill it in the 3rd round you can probably reaply paralyze by hitting with Fire Flask again and then go back to warp break. His level's dropping but it's still pretty close at times and even though people are stopping it'll still be in the upper teens for the next few days at the least. It's going to get a little more annoying but still doable. Y'shtola's point requirement is kinda BS and IIRC it was lower for Japan. Global might still have a lot more players than Japan did though, IDK.

Before my list filled with friend Orlandus, I was trying to chain mine with Olive friends and gently caress if the timing on her shots is weird to nail down. Was having better success chaining a pair of Noctii together with Orlandu on top.

Was having better success chaining a pair of Noctii together with Orlandu on top. For me: Noctis Warp Break is what I'll call a 1 count. Meaning if I click him to attack and count to 1 he'll hit when I say one. True Shot from Olive is a 5 count. So to chain Warp Break and True Shot, click Olive and count 1,2,3 click Noctis. I don't have the exact timing on landing Olive at the end yet but she'll end up somewhere in the middle of a Lightning Crushing Blow + Warp Break chain. Olive's LB I'm not sure what the count is, but I look at her animation until she fires the gun then click everyone else and she'll land in the middle.

The weapons can wait if you team isn't 6*, definitely prioritize those first along with the Cactuars for the leveling. If you have an Orlandu then try and grab the greatsword if you don't have an excalibur already. Make sure to grab stuff like the elixirs/phoenix downs/etc. and also the star quartz. The tickets can wait too unless you're looking to spend them immediately. The 30k moogle can be last.
