I really wanna sell this Cold Snap because it's garbage I don't need compared to Ruler's Rings, but I keep worrying there'll be another event where suddenly it'll be part of a new recipe and get upgraded...

Uyghurs situation in Xinjiang? Just a police action, do not fret. Not ongoing genocide like in EVIL Canada.

I am definitely not a tankie.

If you plan to half pull try and at least make it through the banner. But yeah it's really a trap to buy more slots.

That's the plan, hold em for half pulls just in cade then dump em once the banner is gone. I feel like the tickets would be better used on another banner like fpr Riku than chasing a TMR I would only use on a LaA Exdeath which is quite a few TMRs away right now anyway

So it has been a while and I may be remembering incorrectly but where is the button that lets you read character bios and info? I thought I remembered it being the "details" button but that just brings up numbers now and I can't find the bio button.

On the screen with their stats, if you tap them, they speak, and if you tap the banner with their name and class, it pops up their brief bio.

From the stats/equip screen, press and hold on the unit itself and it'll take you to a screen where you can play the unit's animations and read their bio and quotes.

This is something Gumi would do, with more tins being available as a (possible) boss drop, in case you've never played Brave Frontier.

See also: Shining Splendors in this game. I can't wait to see that event come back with a new level and a new (limit 1) craftable sword that takes 4 or 5 shining splendors to make. :confuoot:

I'd also accept a sword with another +10 or so attack and innate holy element (since I could elemental chain my Freyvia and Orlandu with it).

the first round of ability awakening sure is :psyduck: kuja, lid, rain, fina, krile, roselia, mercedes, lightning, medius, seven


isnt medius global exclusive? and quite bad? that should be interesting.

edit: it looks like if you boost his gun master twice he gets an attack boost increase and dual wield for guns, but his 6* skills are still weird and stupid and bad so i dont think that will help nearly rnough

That selection of awakening units is embarrassingly bad. Oh well. New trial looks okay, the accessory is TM-tier and that large sword mastery looks great. Too bad I'll probably never be able to get it. I hope they reset all of the stages for ariana though, more free lapis and tickets is always welcome.

Only missing Lightning and I'm ok with keeping it that way since even with enhancements I wouldn't replace Olive, Orlandu, or probably even Freyvia.

Dark Ifrit and Siren trial coming too, including Large Sword Mastery for the no KO challenge of the fight.

The real question is what the price and availability of enhancement materials will be at the innkeeper.

e: Good lord, the new 5* base units coming out in Japan have some amazing TMs:
Crimson Soul - HP & ATK +30%, LB Gauge fill rate increased
Ninja headgear(?) - +12 DEF, ATK & MAG +30%, evade, katana-specific dual wield :psyduck:

Save your egg summons till tomorrow when they add in the enhancement mats to the gacha.

Dangerous Ariana gets more dangerous with a new materia that adds MAG 15% HP 10% and gives her dualcast. That's actually pretty sweet for a mostly free character especially if you have the rest of her gear set crafted.

No matter how many bullets Medius shoots, he can't outrun the burden of his awfulness. How about an ability enhancement to remove his Draw Attacks?

Oh, and is Seven's TM (+100% ailment resist) superior enough to a ribbon that I might want to pull on this upcoming banner for it? Because I'd rather not but it sounds quite good.

Having it be a material slot is better for most characters, but unless you have Lapis and room on your TM list to spare, I'd wait for Tilith to pop up again as she's a much better base 4* and her banner will probably be a lot better as well.

Well, even though they let me down on no Ramza, I hope he'll be soon, and need to go ahead and stockpile TMs for him. He.... actually benefits from Equip Staff. Ugh. So I need to TM Roselia, Lenna, Refia, Trey, Luka, and the five Almas I've been putting off forever. That'll get him to 540 SPR, that's servicable.

I fed cactaurs to Laswell to clear roster space, but I have Marie as my only 5-base. Also, eventually there should be trials where you can only use story characters, so might as well level Rain, Laswell, and Fina.

Minfilia, all these other units are trash garbage and shouldn't be leveled at all (except Lasswell if you want the story units leveled for posterity). Some nerds might try to make a case for Primm but don't listen to them.
