Roland Jones posted:Alright, thanks. I'm pretty new at coming back myself so mostly I'll defer to other people for this, but seconding KatanariSword in that a decent healer Burst that can spray healing when you need it is really good to the point of essential; getting one during the festival dramatically increased what I was capable of, more than any other single upgrade.

So does anyone who has Orlandu's OSB and BSB still make use of honing up a Full Charge, or have you found that OSB->BSB->CMD1 murder is better? Given that it's holy and I have a +holy robe in addition to his sword I have to imagine the CMD1 out damages full charge by a solid amount in those cases where both aren't going to just hit 9999x4 constantly. Right now my default setup on Orlandu is the usual Lifesiphon + Saint's Cross and Ace Striker for faster OSB build up (and I still tend to hit the cap or drat close to it since by the time Orlandu's OSB fires, Vaan's BSB and CMD2 have been applied along with full break).

Hm, I don't have a healer Burst yet. I do have a few Medicas, including Eiko's Reraise Super and Hastega normal ones, though. I'll need to look through what else I have; I also have Beatrix's gloves and Bartz's SSB, but those are defense boosters and the former competes with her Burst, and Zidane's SSB, which lowers the enemy's attack... Oh, I have Mog's spear. That sort of counts? (Using an RW seems better still probably.) Ah well. Thanks again for the tips. I'll remember that.

Zurai posted:It stacks, although you don't really want to use a SB on a character with no Lifesiphon/Wrath access instead of just using an ability if your goal is just to get a blink stack. He's my only source of hastega in realm iv, so he'll be popping it 1st go anyways. Nihilarian posted:my main problem with Sanguine Cross is that the damage you do to yourself counts against medals. If they fixed that I'd consider making it again. Nah, they tweaked the medal requirements. Even with me loosing a dude and being near death constantly, I can clear a battle with like 3 medals lost at the most. Sprite141 fucked around with this message at 05:45 on Apr 7, 2017 |

Crafted Curada and Meltdown, killed Necrophobe in phase 2 (?? go Orlandu I guess?), crafted Affliction Break. I didn't think I could make Omega Drive also, but I forgot the nightmares drop crystals, so I may be able to after all. Going to whack Valigarmanda and Omega tomorrow and craft them both if I can find the other fire crystals for omega. Now how useful a bunch of R1 6* abilities are really, I dunno (other than affliction break anyway). If I give Alph R3 Titan and R1 Meltdown he gets... five ability uses I guess there are probably some situational places where they'd come in handy.

two more characters got added to the game that got Record Dive before Mog and Eiko got theirs I mean jesus, the last FF9 event would have been the perfect time to slip Eiko's into the game, right?

And for the abilities of the secret VI characters: Umaro Combat 5/Monk 5/Sharpshooter 5 Dagger,Hammer,Fist,Thrown Light Armor,Bracer Gogo Combat 5/Black Magic 5/White Magic 5 Dagger, Sword, Rod, Staff Hat, Helm, Light Armor, Robe, Bracer Shadow's USB has him reminisce a bit before doing his ninja thing. Interceptor does the second added hit if he's got two blink stacks! Setzer's USB reveals what's better than all 7s on the reel. The added breakdowns are color-coded, at least. Umaro's BSB is a frosty team-up with the Mog Squad. Umaro's SSB has him raid the cherry stash for a power-up.

Exdeath and Core Viking finally have a buddy in the No Hat club. Also I wonder how Sabin feels that the other monk in the realm has access to back-row weaponry and is thus actually a little better in a vacuum.

I guess that's one way to do Gogo. Has there ever been a character with a viable mage or healer BSB/OSB/USB that can use Lifesiphon? Though I guess it's reasonable to expect his SBs to be bizarre nonsense or milquetoast hybrid things.

iPodschun posted:Full Charge is 4.68x damage over 4 hits; Orlandu's command 1 is 4.0x over 4 hits but Holy as you noted so +Holy pushes that up further, as well as having a ATK/DEF break attached. This. I give him his TG Mode RM, Lifesyphon and Powerchain. I build 2 bars then OSB into BSB and chainsaw.

I think Gogo could be fun if he had, granted as a gimmick, a relic soul break which had him use a completely random soul break. Have this include all soul breaks, unique soul breaks, SSB's, BSB's, OSB's, and USB's. If technically possible, overlay the Gogo sprite overtop the character in the animation. It would be the best combination of completely useless but still glorious.

Seems like a scam for dupes to me. Argh I am torn between farming orbfest for hones or farming out story dungeons at half price for stamina. I have a ton of 5* things I want to push to r2, but also am still sitting at 110 stamina with about 2/3 of classic and just a scattering of elite dungeons done.

Something I forgot to mention when y'all were helping me with my team was that I pulled Keeper's Frock Coat for Tyro at the start of the event. So between that, Ramza with Shout, White Materia on Aerith and Tenets of the Fayth on Yuna I have like four decent options across the support / white mage spectrum. Right now my team is Ramza, Aerith, Beatrix, Cloud and DK Cecil. The last two don't have any special equipment and it's frustrating leaving people who do have SBs on the bench, but I need to prioritise damage dealers. e: I guess my question is, how hard should I whale on banner 1 hoping for Sephiroth's gear?

the most annoying thing about Bluestacks is when they ask you to install poo poo in the middle of doing something else Also, Bartz OSB and Laguna's gun I'll probably be grabbing Bartz' enwind SB off the whatever select banner when that comes up. Not really sure what to do with Laguna's boostga, though, since I have better alternatives for general purpose and my 8 Cid team is mage meta by virtue of having Edea and Quistis bursts. Maybe I'll make it a mixed team, I need Irvine for breaks anyway.

I remember I was going back and forth on whether I should have done a third pull on Phase 3 before Phase 4 showed up, and now that I got what I wanted out of Phase 4 in four out of my budgeted five pulls, I can actually go back and perhaps do that third pull. Hmm. Or I could save up. There's a nice little lucky banner coming up this weekend. The Return Of Orbfest is sweet though. NEVER GONNA DIE! But I will finish World of Grymoire first, it won't take that long to get the dungeons that cost stamina out of here.

Welp, I figured I would be able to make a lot of progress on the Realm dungeons and get a bunch more stamina, but alas, that was not to be. At least I got the Special Missions done yesterday. I was able to re-score each of the 5 Banners according to the system I built and determined that Banner 4 was my best choice to pull on again. 1/11, I got Agrias's OSB from it!

Holy poo poo I did it. Grabbed OKs OSB from this banner extension and it gave me the final push I needed. Edit: My party setup was Minfillia with her last stand SSB, Full Break and Wrath. Battleforged. Tyro with his BSB and SG, Exhausting Polka(never used) and wrath. Mako Might. Onion Knight with his BSB and OSB, Magic Breakdown and Wrath. Ace Striker Yuna with her BSB, Curaja and Protectga. Lionheart. Vanille with her BSB, Curaja and Shellga. Dr Mog's. RW: Deployment Tactics. First round was getting up all the mitigation and both breakdowns. Then I had Vanille use her BSB as soon as the first boundless ultima went off. After that it was mostly wrath and medica spam to keep up SB gauge. Geocities Homepage King fucked around with this message at 16:07 on Apr 7, 2017 |

Well the banners coming back was a nice surprise. I always meant to give the first one another whirl but it disappeared on me. So I did one and got Vaan's Burst, OKOSB, and Sephiroth's glove. Nice, but we all know what I was after. And it turned up in the second spin. Maria's Burst. Also a second Dirk. Anyway, good thing the orbfest came back too, because I need xp again. e: gotta beat up some adorable woff monsters first though. really need to go play that again too, was enjoying it McDragon fucked around with this message at 16:04 on Apr 7, 2017 |

Happy day, chasing Maria's BSB with another pull on banner 1 paid off. Netted me Sephiroth's gloves and a dupe of Edge's jacket too. I got basically all of the big chase items I went after except for OK and Alphinaud's BSBs, and at this point those would just be luxuries.

Welp. Since I'm clearly incapable of learning from past experience, I threw another $30 at Banner 4 and wound up with yet another goddamn Chaos Rod I didn't loving need. ... But I also got Ashe's OSB and OK's Blowback SSB, so I'm at peace with this banner now. I really, really wanna go for one more shot at Faris's USB, but I've already got everything else on Banner 2 except that, Tidus's OSB and Zell's SSB.

Alright, which of these five banners should I pull on? Notable things I already have: Cloud's OSB, Beatrix's, Quina's, and Faris's BSBs, a collection of SSBs including Bartz's and Yuna's, both walls, and two Eiko Medicas (Reraise and Haste ones). I have 105 mithril now (I didn't do the 50 mithril event until last night) and can earn a lot more from catching up on event stuff like the orbfests. I think what I need most is either stat boosts or great healer stuff, since Eiko's Medicas that I have are both kind of lame.

I don't have a want score of more than 12 on any banner so I'm thinking pass. The closest is banner 2, but that's just a lot of somewhat wants, no big wins. Really sucks that I have so many dupes on banners 3 and 4 because the grand prizes there are still things I really really want but I guess I can wait for the next appearance of the two Cids (Raines and TG).
