Next banner: Aileen, Sozhe, Heltich, and Ulrica. Aileeen seems pretty good. Her TM is her best weapon, similar to Olive, she has HP and MP regen options for the whole party. She apparently displaces Orlandu as best unit once she gets her enhancements, not sure if the others on the banner are worth pulling for though, Sozhe is probably good, but the others look like garbage with crap TMs.

Someone was praising Yuna's LB and wondering how much it would take to fill. Well she dropped on JP and the answer is 30 crystals with no fill rate boosting passives. Yeah you're not getting all that goodness for free. Even with 4 TMs giving you 8 crystals per turn that's a good 3 turns to fill up (assuming you get the remaining 6 from combat)

Only ever Abused force close for Maxwell, everything else just did. What about if the app just closes on itself? MEmu does that a lot, and even done that sometimes on my phone.

I gotta say I like Tidus kit a lot more. 12 hit attack, party wide mana regen as well, solid AOE, Focus+Cheer baked into a ST attack and not tied to an element for damage though you can make him water for added damage. He's definitely someone I'll be rolling hard for, and with Rikku on his banner too, it's a no brainer. However that's around 6 banners away so that kind of suck.

There's already a base 5 on it and I don't think we've seen a double 5 base banner since Ramza/Delita. They also don't seem to like doing 5 character banners outside of the players choice.

today from the free ticket i keep desperately pulling for a setzer. blue, reform to gold! hope! somehow he has been the 4* i have pulled the last three times in a row. i wish i saved for eileen but also base 5* is a crapshoot anyway and of the four i pulled literally not a single one of them was on banner, so.

Im not pulling for eileen and I seriously dont think I'm going to even half pull during this banner because anything not a 5* is going to be a waste. I'll stock up all my lapis and tickets for tidus and rikku. Its an incredibly weak banner if it wasn't for eileens massive buffs through enhancements. Half thinking Gumi buffed her that hard just to make her banner more appealing on global when it came to.

Brave Frontier had niche units that were broken so it ultimately had the same problem, but unlike in BF a single 5* base unit in FFBE is the difference between farming ADV and ELT. Kind of frustrating when they're 0.2% chance to pull or whatever.

Luneth < Gilgamesh < Lightning < Noctis < Olive < Orlandu < Frevia < Setzer I am so glad I'm not consumed by the game that OMG YOU HAVE TO PULL FOR THIS UNIT only for it to be outclassed by the next release then the next then the next. Don't get me wrong I would love to have a Noctis or Orlandu in my kit, but that cycle I showed above is at minimum $400 of single 11 pulls IF you have superior luck and land the unit on first attempt.

Im just gonna stick to my method of hoarding until a good time limited 4* shows up, pull for it, then resume hoarding for the next one, seeing as ill pull everyone i missed whole chasing the banner unit anyway, and the only one ive regret missing is ling.

Unit spreadsheet has been updated. This upcoming banner is a pretty terrible banner. Don't pull unless you're ready to commit hundreds to get Aileen. She'll be back on other, better banners during anniversaries and whatnot.

my first non rakshasha rainbow draw was a ramza and while he's good for a lot of various things, not being one of those gently caress you carry everything good five stars was sorta a big disappointment. then i had that weird little string where i pulled several more and ended up with olive and now i am super stoked to have that ramza when enhancements show up.

Ramza is THE defining bard character in the game the same way Orlandu redefined chaining/damage. Their only success at making another bard character since then was Roy, which is just a different taste of Ramza with more updated combo gimmicks. Took them a while to hit on the doublehand finisher meta, which is weird how they implemented it so quickly here with a monster character like Olive. Now it seems they've finally succeeded in setting up a gimmick that works for summoners. They were so close to getting a caster gimmick that works with Lulu, but they hosed up by making her strongest spells imperil the wrong element and they made her right imperil be dependent on her getting hit to counter with it.

They even gave her a unique sprite for that one scene, it was great. Jake was really pushing it with his casanova nonsense. So, I had a really bizarre "Beat boss with Esper" mission mishap. I work him down all the way to 10K HP and use Ifrit. It does 7.5K damage, annoying me as I'll have to do an Exploration stage all over again. And then poison damage kills the boss anyway. Yet I somehow still got the Lapis for beating the boss with an Esper. Really weird but good bug.

Cooking TMs, thought I had three Inguses for 3 L&A, turns out I only had 2.... and one had 5% TMR  Might have to settle for DW, L&A, L&A, MAG+30% for caster TMsAlso no recovery week in the arena is the worst. Ling usually bails me out of eating Fire Flask, without that I've had multiple matches go to round 10 where a lone ribbon'd enemy tried futilely to kill my Ling who can't do poo poo back.

The wiki only lists global content. hagie posted:Luneth < Gilgamesh < Lightning < Noctis < Olive < Orlandu < Frevia < Setzer  Orlandu isn't Outclasses by Fryevia*, let alone Setzer. Setzer's entire thing is being an RNG finisher that you hope pulls off a 55555/77777 hit during a maxxed out chain with as many killer passives as you can stack. He can work as a chainer but unlike Orlandu he isn't going to do murderous damage with his chain. * Her BiS damage potential is higher but her ideal damage setup is a doublehand build meaning a much shorter chain, and to get that damage you need to use her skill in a fairly long chain (like DR spam, or double Endless). Cao Ni Ma posted:There should be a way to grind a few base 5*s to get to pick the 5* you want.

Olive was just the global team doing what Gumi's global team does (make units that're either OP or worthless).

The fatal flaw with all these super hyped DDs like Fryevia, Aileen, Tidus, etc. is that they're terrible at chaining relative to TGC. No one's going to unseat him from that niche until OK and even then, his interaction with D Veritas still keeps him as a top chainer/DD even with OK around. To me, the gamechanger units have always been just TGC and Rikku. Tilith and Ayaka are amazing no doubt but we have plenty of other healers. Tidus/Aileen's damage isn't unique. TGC's perfect chain capability and Rikku's toolkit and re-raise just don't have any alternatives except for OK on the chaining front. dangerous.hotdog fucked around with this message at 23:56 on May 2, 2017 |

Basically if you pull any of the 5^s after Orlandeau, you need to pull them in duplicate so they can chain off each other. On the plus side, while they are harder to chain off other units, they all have a lot more utility and support to go along with their damage chains.

She has three abilitites that get need a turn to setup: One is a flat 19998 damage AOE The next is 1.8x damage to all enemies and inflicts 2 random status The third gives 40% elemental resistance and 30% damage reduction to the whole party. Her LB is maybe even her best skill as it grants Auto Revive with 80% HP to the entire party and buffs DEF/SPR Her TM is an accessory that gives DEF +3 and 3 abilities Chaos Grenade: Physical damage (1.8x) to all enemies (1 hit) 1 random status ailment (Poison/Blind/Sleep/Silence/Paralyze/Confuse/Virus - 30%, Petrify - 100%) to all enemies Decrease ATK/DEF/MAG/SPR (30%) for 3 turns to all enemies Cure All: Cure all status ailments to all allies Eccentric: Increase LB gauge fill rate (200%) for 5 turns to all allies That last one is probably going to be useful for Yuna.
