Literally every $1 draw I've done on banners with one or two dupes has gotten me a dupe in the past 2 months. Wtf. This A+ MP was ridiculous. I believe in Squall BSB2 now. Two of those on the team more than carried the DPS load. I brought Yuna and Selphia USB for Last Stand hijinks. Advice for this battle, don't bother with wall or ko resist. Arise and curaise are actually useful. Even with Selphia USB, I brought memento of Prayer. Sap is a bitch and it helps to eliminate it from the equation as often as needed. 2 Yuna's, a Selphia and Edge (SSB) we're all we needed for life support.

Depending on the boss's gimmicks maybe I can swing something like Cloud/Zack/Vaan/Maria/Minwu, or maybe get away with dropping Vaan for Firion or someone who can use multi-hit skills against its weakness for 9999 per hit. The real question is what orbs will it drop, and could it have a chance at dropping a crystal instead of multiple Greater/Major orbs? e: Oh, I have Gordon's shield and whatever SB was associated with it (Goddess Bell?).

My II synergy is actually half-decent but a lot of it is outdated stuff. Maria BSB, Minwu SSB (Instant Curaja Medica) & Unique (AoE WHT Non-Ele damage + 100% Stun), Gordon Unique (AoE ATK/MAG Breakdown), Leon Unique (ATK/DEF +30%), Guy's SSB (AoE Earth/Non + Imperil Earth), Josef's Noble Sacrifice (Kills Himself, ATK +50%) & Avalanche (AoE Ice/Non + 30% ATK).

I'm waiting this out to see how much I really want it, but I'll probably give in when it gets closer to rotating out. I'd even be happy with Rinoa's SSB because it would actually let me combo into her OSB (assuming she had some way to build meter). But I'd really like some ice- its just a question of how much I value powering up Fujin vs pulling on the Ice element banner in the next fest. Fujin is the best ninja, and I don't care what Edge or Shadow have to say about it. I'm focusing mainly on getting my team ready for the II torment. To do the CM, I'm probably going to wind up just having a completely non-synergistic physical team of Leon, Firion, and Leila. They can cover all weaknesses for the medal conditions at least (Hailstorm and the Fire Sharpshooter on Firion (also EnHoly SSB=> OSBs to focus down some of the troublesome gigas), Poison on Leila BSB/Poison Leaves, and Gaia Cross on Leon (who also has BSB)). Probably pair them up with Minfilia and Rosa for the JS. My other idea is trying to do a Dark team and ignoring medal conditions just for the CM. I could bring Emperor (SSB) and Leon (BSB), with Leila self-buffing on mugs, and RW a Dark imperil.

Two pulls, still no ice relics. Is Fujin's SSB + OSB enough dps for the wind magicite dungeon with wrathbot support? Otherwise these pulls were a complete bust.

With the LMR+SSB you can BSB, SSB when empower runs out followed by another BSB during Jump Start. Without the LMR you'll either lose the empower or the burst for half that period. Her CMD1 is x13.5 fast cast with empower. Ashe is only x15.78, no fast cast. Alphinaud is 11.46 w/ self instant cast, which is better if you don't need the breakdowns. If you already have Alphinaud there is nothing wrong with bringing both, of course. KPC_Mammon fucked around with this message at 08:51 on Jul 31, 2017 |

I was hoping to get something more worthwhile on the current draw, but I just got Rinoa SSB and Fujin SSB x2 (dupe). If nothing else it makes for decent +earth armor and really good magic synergy gear. The intention was to get something vaguely worthwhile for the 180 CM...but instead I conjured up a motley crew and proceeded to heavily lean on the whips and trains of Quistis BSB + OSB. Largely ignoring the gimmick just feels kinda incongruous, y'know?

If you've been looking for a reason to be happy you pulled Yuna USB, Tonberry King A+ is it. Even with four people spamming last stand, my winning run still lost 2-3 people per SB cycle. If you don't need to worry as much about wall or proshellga, Song of Spira's suite is absolutely best in show.

First MP victory we never broke his RES, so no Mastery oops. Second win was much tighter; although we had a pretty solid lineup (Yuna/Selphie/Relm as Last Stand healers, Zidane/Lion/Lightning for DPS, Ramza/Onion as supports), with everyone knowing what they were doing, he got very It's sharp! happy towards the end. Yuna was out of SB gauge and abilities, resorting to bonking him to build up meter. One by one, people started to get 1-shot through Last Stand (bring KO resist, people!), until it was just my Yuna and their Lightning left. Yuna finally queued up Song of Spira, and he smashed an It's Sharp! in her face. Last Stand procced, and she then revived six people at once. Short work after that. If there was a Play of the Game or commendations, Yuna would almost certainly have gotten it.

Question for those farming Geo 300; is the orb drop set when you choose the RW and enter the stage (before spending stamina) or after entering the actual fight? Not sure if I need to soft reset and cancel the battle or completely quit out to the stage menu.

Beasteh posted:Question for those farming Geo 300; is the orb drop set when you choose the RW and enter the stage (before spending stamina) or after entering the actual fight? Not sure if I need to soft reset and cancel the battle or completely quit out to the stage menu. It's set when you enter the actual battle. If you flee and en-enter, it re-sets the drop. That's how those programs ID your drops. It took like 4 tries with PUGS to refine what was needed for the Tonberry A+. The winning run went smoothest when I geared my contributions to covering all the issues with sustaining everyone's life. Some insight: 1. I didn't realize at first that his Ultimate junk counter, sap inducing attack could overwrite your own regen. Despite using Selphie's USB (with High Regen attached), my team was still dying to his sharp! attacks, mostly because of my ignorance. If he counters, cast memento of protection ASAP. 2. Curaga's good here. If you revive someone (outside of Yuna's USB), Curaga won't top off their hp, but it will leave them safe from being targeted and give more than enough to survive the AOE attack. 3. Yuna's USB is indeed really good. He's absolutely killing someone in the first turn, so her USB is a pretty good choice. My winning run was actually really smooth. I didn't even have to use my USBs nearly as often as I feared. People were barely dying and both my healers had a USB shot in the bank as we took him down.

Apparently you can hit and run the d220 solo and he does nothing for like 3 turns so its possible to zerg him down before he becomes dangerous. I'm probably gonna try this later just to see if I can pull it off. You don't do this on d160 though since hit and run strategy costs stamina.

I've started using a few more dudes with access to those skills (plus with Shadow coming up I wanna get some ninja stuff done up) but I'm not quite sure which if any are decent, especially with ninja. Are any due for buffs?Randabis posted:Apparently you can hit and run the d220 solo and he does nothing for like 3 turns so its possible to zerg him down before he becomes dangerous.

So much for saving for the ffvi event! I had enough for two pulls, and the second ffviii banner looked really nice. I have some decent mage gear in there, but no omph save quistis' bsb. First pull was two of fujin's zans. Second pull got me her third zan, but also her bsb! So now I have fujin's jacket +++, which is useful as my second wind boosting armor. So now I have 3 good ffviii sb' amongst a bunch of lovely ones. Eventually I'll be able to field a challenge mission team, but not today.

Wish I could beat the drat d250 torment. Triple wind imperil shout/chant cloud usb rw with cloud bsb2 just can't pull out enough damage before I die. If I had a water element physical bsb this would be so easy though. Edit: Got it with only one medal lost by switching to my holy shitwrecker team of agrias tg cid rosa tyro ramza rw cloud.

Is it just me or are JS battles kinda trivial to master now if you have a couple of OSBs? If you have 2 or 3 characters bringing OSBs plus a handful of buffs or debuffs, the bosses just don't have the HP to withstand 6-8 consecutive massive hits. Today I brought Gilgamesh and Squall, and after a Shout plus an activation of Cloud USB RW for each of them, and Edea just melted before either of them could use all three bars. But I guess if they just increased the JS boss HP, then it wouldn't be possible WITHOUT a stack of OSBs. Either way, I'm not complaining. I love me some free 4 and 5* motes.

Just to be clear what you're talking about has nothing to do with OSBs and everything to do specifically with Cloud USB and that its a problem that it breaks the game. Also, Edea is markedly easier than previous JS fights. But in general, Jump Starts are quite a bit easier than the Apoc+ versions
