We just need whatever BRA*BRA is (can't quite figure it out, since Google just gives me stuff about bras) to come to America. Then the collab events might happen in the first place instead of getting bits and pieces of the important stuff introduced half a year later, with other stuff appearing never.

Both albums are available to buy on SE's North American website, albeit as imports. I expect the third one will have the same treatment. There's absolutely no reason they couldn't have the collabs come out over here unless Square-Enix themselves is explicitly kiboshing it. So either DeNA is refusing to localize the content or SE isn't letting them; there's no two ways around it. KataraniSword fucked around with this message at 11:36 on Apr 26, 2017 |

Ok, went pretty loving far in the 240 ultros mp dungeon. I had to switch out kain for tyro to have wall, but I don't think I'll do that again. I need to bring kain with his infinite thunder dive, or whatever group I get will never clear the dungeon. Other than that it would havr gone great, except a pubbie brought cloud with osb and an OK with loving renewing cure, really?

When new characters come out, them and their MC's sometimes don't come out right away. If you missed them during the event, you're just going to have to wait for them to be released. I had a similar problem with Vayne when I egged him up to 50 in the last XII event and I couldn't get his MC until I beat the dungeon to unlock it.

For 240 Ultros, are people finding OSBs or BSBs more valuable; I have Lightning's OSB, Kain's BSB and Shantotto's BSB. So far I've been running Lightning's OSB since if there was ever a time for the weird gimmick on the OSB, this is it. I could take Kain along too but I'm using Vanille since healing is good.

I've found that BSBs are more useful for the Orthros fight. The fight is so long that you want to be able to do things for a long time. That being the case, you want to be able to knock him down quickly on his 5th life as all his attacks are AoE and can end a run very quickly. Was running Refia and someone put imperil on him and suddenly she was doing 8 hits over 9k. It was pretty amazing and I'd recommend that kind of fun to everyone.

I brought celes for the counter eating/infinite fire twinstrike and a papalymo BSB for the damage dealing (and providing shellga/protectga because its almost guaranteed that one of the idiots in my raid with a healer bsb will bring ultra cure and curaja instead of the missing buff and never use the curaja)

Terra OSB did work but that's a slightly special case of being a +fire weapon and wrath access. Kain and Shantotto BSB's will be better than lightning OSB tho. Especially Shantotto.

Especially Shantotto. She wrecks poo poo. Cool, thanks. Running BSBs are a lot more fun at least. I guess I need to figure out if the math makes sense to equip Kain with synergy (ATK ~600) or +lightning; Kain lance and Agrias shield would bring ATK to ~400 and hurt in the DEF/RES, but both boost lightning. All the commands are only 2-4 hits so I'd think I'd be fairly easy to cap out at 9999 with a boost but at 240 difficulty, who the heck knows.

I ran osb orlandeau and bsb kain, and I was the primary dps for both 240 ultros clears I did. My Orlandeau slowed the gently caress down towards the end, but kain went strong all the way through. Make sure to bring one loving fire move so you don't fail to get mastery the first time around.

This. I had a wasted Mandragoras run at 160 (precious stamina...) because no one brought a fire skill. So I ran it one more time with Ifrit on my Tyro (had to drop wrath) to hit for a pitiful 2k hp. Luckily my A+(+) runs had much more mindful people. Is there a "medal condition" stamp? Because there really should be one.

I still haven't managed to get 240 Orthos to work for me, but at least I've cleared the Mandragora fights. One of the most baffling things I've seen is a group where the description was I WILL KICK YOU IF YOU BRING FIRE, when he had a Celes, and no fire skills of his own.

Weird, but might've been attempting to farm greens. I've seen a few group leaders like that, focusing just on completing fights but not caring for mastery. They usually note that on the description, but could have been limited space.

Anybody really like being the support role in raids? I got sick of dying to idiots not bringing wall or screwing up on healing, so I just bring my Tyro with full break and either life siphon or banishing strike and Vanille with Ultra Cure and Protectga/Shellga/Slowga and I'm constantly saving my teams' asses. Dropping Transcendent Dream at a rough patch, and then immediately dropping it again a turn later and saving everyone feels amazing, as well as her USB for status blink, proshellga, and 2000 HP at the beginning/if needed is great. Then I can wall or do Tyro's proshellga as needed and make sure that my team can actually meet the medal conditions for most fights. The 200 Ultros fight was 6 DPS and me as the only support/healer, and I was thinking there was no way one healer could keep up, and then we did it with no deaths - it was close as hell so many times, but it worked out. It's just an absolute blast. That said, what the hell is the deal with triggering a heavy counter-attack on turn one, before damage mitigation is up? The 200 and 240 Ultros battles both opened up with 5,000HP counter attacks that almost ended us before they started. And it would be really nice if pubbies could wait to do their OSBs after shout and fullbreak have gone off, when applicable (not these two fights, but happens all the loving time!) instead of launching them immediately.

Japan is getting a free 30-pull. Yes. You pull, and you get 30 relics. Yes. It's free. It comes with a guaranteed OSB. https://www.reddit.com/r/FFRecordKeeper/comments/67u1pn/jp_free_30pull_gacha_for_golden_week/ Edit: And initial reports seem to indicate that the banners will each have 4 6* relics, and TEN BSBs.

A lot of that is just lag. I've had times where I queued up an SB and sat there on a fully red bar for like 15 seconds - sometimes another party member will get into a full two actions between my ability supposedly being ready to fire and actually going off. It's super annoying and I'm pretty sure it happens to lots of people who aren't the host, so coordinating on that level probably requires really good connections for everyone involved. Random pubbies could very well be actually timing things properly just to have lag throw everything off, though of course it's probably more likely that they are just flailing around most of the time.

Numbers on the Bard abilities: both stack by +10% per cast until they reach +50%.

Even if you've got someone running with Dispel or Banishing Strike, I had a few OSBs queued up that hit Protect counters, which sucks. I ended up winning with Papa with Ley Lines/BSB and Shantotto. There's no reason we should have won; there were 3 people running fire only with no Celes so we were getting fire-countered to hell, only Full Break, healing was Miracle Veil and Relm BSB, but it was a mage team and we pulled it out in the end.
