Updating the upcoming character list, and I see they've gone and released a second Olive on the JP side, but it's a healer. Wonder how they're going to handle that one... Oliver? Yeah, I'm going with Oliver until someone says otherwise.



I'm finished with upcoming units for the next few months. Expected release dates are estimated as 10 months behind the JP version, which is how far behind JP we are on storyline right now. Global-exclusive events have been pushing the event timetable further and further behind, so I'm just going to go with that.

Disclaimer: Events may happen sooner or later, depending on the whims of the global localization staff.

Started my first TMR baby sitting program on Nox. Kind of nice to set it up by recording clicks while counting to 5 to make sure it loads, then walking away and doing other things, or watching TV and not feeling the need to examine my phone to see if I have 10 energy to do event.

Now to get my wife's laptop fixed, or get a chromebook or something so I can take it with me since my work frowns on putting non-approved applications on laptops...

some things i feel like people used to remember, or maybe you never knew! about taking lovely bonus currency units on your own team and or as your friend unit. if your bonus unit can't carry, slap a siren on them. attack song is incomparably more useful than a not maxed out non carry bonus currency unit

The other espers also have de-shell, de-protect, and imperil if your main damage dealer is using elemental attacks. All of these can mean the difference between a unit killing an enemy in less rounds so use them. Theres also power and magic break if you need to survive another round

OK, I'm done updating all currently released characters for both versions, minus a few event characters that I have no idea where they come from. A year from now, there should be over 150 6* characters available, adding more at the rate of about 10 per month.

Edit: Found the last 6 that were missing, apparently freebies from a player-designed character event.

I got my eighth Ludmille today and a third Zidane yesterday. Now that I have Luneth/Gilgamesh/Olive having more Zidanes isnt really that exciting, and I sorta doubt I need eight dualcast. It's funny how significantly amazing a single unit can be and how vaguely useless they are in multiples.

I could grind out four Letters and Arms and Dualcasts extremely quickly since I think I have 9 L&A waiting but I am always like "but what if I need ten :ohdear:"

edit: I have no Setzers but I got a Ling and a Xon fairly painlessly so I should have expected this return to form by now. I think I didn't get a Chiz until her 6* was out

Yes, and its dark element though and the two units that would benefit from dark, garland and veritas get bonuses from greatswords and would rather use dkc's sword.

All the units i got however have better weapon options then swords and wouldnt really benefit using it. I also dont think we are going to get a lot of events with enemies weak to dark

Yes. Moonblade and Mana Blade are the only swords better than Enhancer in Global actually.

Don't forget Fryevia's Needle! It's got +10 ATK and +89 MAG over the Enhancer. Still not as strong ATK-wise as the Moon Blade or Mana Blade though unless you need that crazy MAG stat.

WOOOOOW. Now I see why these macros are so god drat frustrating.

Ran a macro last night that I could babysit...ran it for 2 hours with 0 issues.

Start it up when I get home from work today, fire it up, nothing but failures. This macro was one I recorded myself.

IF I run the recorded macro, it quits tapping the screen once the mission is cleared and never starts again...and YES before anyone asks, I DO HAVE THE MACRO SET TO REPLAY UNTIL I STOP IT


Also, my processor supports the VT poo poo, and it is already activated and the emulator just won't accept that fact and tells me to run it, all the time.

:lol: Kefka's completely immune to all elements except whichever one he gives himself -6000% resist to. Gumi does not want Orlandu/Fryevia/Olive/etc to be useful* with any consistency in this fight. He also removes all breaks from himself every turn before he acts. This fight looks really dumb but the rewards would be useful at least. Kinda want that robe too...


* Divine Ruination is non-elemental so Orlanu can still work as a chainer.

Doesn't Carbuncle make Graviga a OHKO attack? Given that there's a chance he'll use it every turn not only do you have to hope for esper charge RNG you also have to hope he just won't kill whoever has Carbuncle. Also -6000% resist makes me weary of how durable Kefka is going to be. It's probably going to be elemental whack-a-mole and everything else does jack poo poo damage.

The idea of the fight is to wait around twiddling your thumbs until he casts Banishga then immediately 1-round him with 2x DR chain. You can work on pumping Esper meter in the meantime. Same strategy, different element if you have French Fries, Olive, etc.

Did you unlock any new abilities on your espers /switch them up between recording and using your macro? I didn't train any of my espers during the egg event for this reason since I didn't want to make a new bear macro.

This is my first foray into macro world, so I never set one up for egg farming.

This is a simple TM macro for Earth Shrine step 1 battle.

Set up battle screen with Earth Shrine already selected
Select bottom battle
Count to 5
Next
Count to 5
Choose top friend
Count to 5
Depart
Count to 5
Hit AUTO
let fight run it's course
Select next
Count to 5
Tap screen to progress from exp menu
Count to 10 or 15
Hit next

The counting is to allow for any lag Internet or performance wise. Worked perfectly last night while I was watching it, now it wants to be finicky.

I had thought about it since I posted that and was just going to bring Minfillia to negate the whole thing :v:

I'm secretly hoping Kefka's charm is also just confuse because Minfilia deals with that at the same time too and idk if anything else in this game has inflicted charm.
