Is there a way to fix the repeat summon issue? Just got my 3rd Elle in 3 days.

Everybody goes through something like this, it's just the gacha being the gacha. If your lucky is a base 5 that repeats...

1/2 pull yesterday was a blue crystal turned gold and gave me Hope.

Today's 1/2 was a blue crystal turned gold and gave me... Hope :sigh:

Not sure why I'm pulling. Extra bonus for the event would be nice but considering that even the crysts at 30k are a giant goddamn trap (just like the TM moogles) it's not like I'll have much reason to keep going once I buy the cheap 6* materials, star quartz, and screamroots. Everything else isn't worth it.

The second is a set of recipes that allows you to use the special awakening mats to "upgrade" the FF14 character trust mastery rewards. For example, Follower's Oath can be upgraded to a +15% HP/ATK version and Hydaelyn's Blessing can be upgraded to 15% resist all.

I'm in the same boat. Still haven't pulled a bonus unit, still haven't seen a bonus encounter. Already got the star quartz, cheap tickets, and daggers just by bringing a lone friend Rem/King. I think at this point I'll just power through what 6* mats I'm low on and maybe the pricey tickets and call it the day. gently caress Type Zero King Mog events.

I did one now half pull today and now I'm done other than free pulls. No rem, but have king and the 3* bonus unit I guess. Have the lapis lined up for an 11 pull on a good banner and building up tickets.

Got my Reberta's trust maxed out. Holy poo poo is Crimson Blood strong. I can almost take down the ELT raid Bahamut. I could probably even do it if my team was just a bit more buff. Rain and Refia are almost there, but I need more cactuars to get them to 100. Same deal with Firion. If I can get a Draco Spike Trance Terra will probably be all that I need to make up the difference, but the best thing I have right now is the Drakesclaw Rod for my mages.

Maybe I can do Surging Menace and get a Wizard Rod? I got rolled the first time I tried it a few days ago, though.

Edit: Woo boy that was a rough one, but I managed. Thanks, Reberta, for being a truck full of bricks.

Given that I probably won't be able to afford both, is it a good idea to prioritize the gun over the spear for the Bahamut event, given that I have both Gungnir and Crimson Blood and no good guns?

I set up my Noctis to be able to solo the Bahamut trail. Megaflare undefended does about 6k hp and he has 8.3k. Let the first megaflare hit you so the dragon's roar effect (boost atk/mag/def/spr by 40% under 50%) procs. Lance heals him to full. Just tested the fight out and basically you just alternate between lance and warp break to make it go faster. You can to be safe just only use lance though. If you need mp just point warp or use an item.

Edit: Forgot to set him on Odin for my friends list. Need Odin for lance and the extra dragon killer is nice. Cleared up a few slots so if someone needs a solo carry 180,156,530.

Also, is there some kind of whale war going on with the raid event? Suddenly Bahamut's jumped up to level 29 when we were never able to get him passed 25.

bot spam. There's a lot of notifications in the raid of several people with the default "Rain"s, clearing the ELT trial by like 4-7 million damage. which i doubt.

I can't wait for macroing to become bannable as a result of these bots running up the score for no obviously good reason that I can see given how trivial it is to get max rewards.

And yeah, went from Rank 18k to 45k in the span of 4 hours or so.

If bots are flooding in they're going to pause the rewards to purge them all. They've done the same thing for years with Frontier Hunter in Brave Frontier.

e: I went from 10.5k to 38k in placement due to this. :eyepop:

Yeah, that thing kicks my teeth in every time I see it. It'd probably be fine if I was running a real team, but I'm running the two Kings and a Sice I pulled with Reberta and Trance Terra.

And oh my god, I actually overkilled ELT Raid Bahamut. Found someone with a pretty strong Reberta and managed two Raging Thrust/Crimson Death combos to just bury him. Threw in a few Full Breaks and a double Ultima for flavor, but still. :eyepop:

I'm gonna free up some spots on my list if anyone wants on. I'll probably be running one of my 6*s as leader, but I may throw King up for the event. Certainly wouldn't mind some of your guys broken-rear end dudes on my list. My code's 943,217,866.

I'd been skirting right around 10.Xk place for the Bahamut raid for awhile, and I was starting to consider burning some lapis just to push myself under before the event ended...yeah, not anymore. Now I'll be lucky to stay under 30k unless they roll this way the hell back.

No longer in the top 50k ranking (dropped over 40k places since this started). I'm legit amazed that some person/group is running tens of thousands of bots for this, and also that bahamut's HP goes up by multiple trillions per rank at this point.

15k to 80k. Somebody is real determined to do something and I hope Gumi addresses it before rewards are given out, but in the meantime I'll enjoy the extra raid coins for hopefully more cactuars.
