I'm 1/11 on both luckies so far.

But they did end up giving me dupes on banner one, so I'm probably not pulling on any of them now.

2/11 Reks BSB, Gilgamesh USB

Yay? I have no idea how good his USB is, but I'll take it! I have his BSB so that should make him my definitive retaliator.

Reks BSB is super annoying. I have like 10 total BSBs, how the hell did I get a dupe??? Have an 8* stat stick now at least though.

Ramza USB, Ace USB.

Luck finally turning around a bit!

I think Ramza's USB will help me quite a bit as a new player, and I've always been fond of characters that use magical cards as weapons.

2/11 - Rydia BSB and Exdeath USB. Somehow, the game really wants me to love Exdeath after giving me a total of five relics (4 unique, 1 dupe) for him.

I can't say that I disagree. :science:

In other news, how should I be trying to finally break into Magicite dungeons with this profile? (FFRKC's not cooperated on syncing, but I have or will have the above two relics/Rosa BSB/the new skills as well.) I'd tried out Bismarck but had been hit with either more incoming damage or less outcoming damage than I could stand (Ashe needed a lot of buffs to succeed while Orlandeau was only hitting for 50-60K per OSB shot.), and a few preliminary tries on the other fights convinced me that I really don't know how to run Entrust bots well. Thoughts?

3/11. Fang BSB2, Porom BSB, Yuffie BSB.

Looking better, all are completely new for me. Yuffie in particular is going to be very handy for Liquid Flame. :toot:


Fest total: 3 new BSB, 2 dupe BSB.

Yeah I did get other stuff too. A dumb hairclip, a leftover Arc BSB from yesterday and.. uh, was there something else? I'm pretty sure it was 4/11

Oh yeah

HELL YEAH!

Honestly even the hairclip (Red XIII BSB Cosmo Canyon) seems really good.

3/11, and two of them were dupes (Keeper's Tome and FFT Chaosbringer). The other was Fang's Rhomphia.

Meh. At least it's more Tactics and XIIi synergy, which I kinda needed.

The Dumb Hairclip has saved my toast in a lot of occasions.


Anyways I hit 5/11 on the Burst Lucky, but got a a 3/5 Dupe ratio there.

Featured Bursts were Basch, Eiko and Rapha with Newcomers Quistis and Prishe.

Got 3/11 Delita USB, Zack BSB, and dupe Terra BSB. Meh overall as I already have 3 imperil winds and both Bartz and Lightning USBs to cover Delitas spellblades.

Do they ever make a proper 5* ice spellblade?

3/11, Yuffie's BSB (dupe), Sazh's BSB, and Lenna's USB. Nothing in particular I was hoping for but for 25 mythil I'll take it.

Should I combine Yuffie's shuriken or keep them separate? I have Air Knives+ and Shadow's SSB for ninja orientated daggers, 2 of Dagger's daggers, and a bunch of Hope's and Rinoa's throw weapons so I'm leaning towards combining them, it's not like I'm hurting for ninja weapons.

1/11 Delita's USB. Sure is a lot of elements, it seems decent?

Lightbringer is nearly a dupe since I have Agrias' alternative. Other two look good though? Decent physical wind burst and a direct upgrade to Clear Tranquil (which was my FF7 medica up til now)

I got 1/11 with Nabaat's BSB. I remember there being some hype when that debuted, what's so great about it? Is it the imperil dark on cmd2?
I already have two imperil dark magic BSBs, so a little underwhelming.

Imperil Dark, Imperil Dark command, and a character that can Wrath and even Breakdown if you need to.

She's pretty much the best Dark Imperil by a mile; Kuja will deal more damage in the short term and Seymour just weeps in the corner.

He's probably a better character than whatever other imperil dark users you have because of his support and wrath abilities. It'd give more reliable usage for Magicite and non-JS dungeons. However it's nothing to get too excited about now. Sorry.

2/11 Ovelia's BSB and Rikku's USB! Both unique and Rikku's USB being my first +water damage weapon (I have her and Bartz's water BSBs but no boosts) might be enough to push me to victory against the Living Flame magicite.

5/11 :toot:

Fran USB, Rikku BSB, Minfilia BSB, Edgar BSB, Kefka BSB. Surprisingly no dupes too.

I had no poison stuff before this so it's nice to have both a physical and magical option, and my water and ice teams were sorely lacking any useful SBs. This was great. Hopefully it didn't burn all my luck for the rest of the fest.

I touch myself at night
Okay so with combining equipment.. everything says LOW LEVEL. Do I need to upgrade them to 3/3 before combining them? I ended up selling a bunch of one start stuff because I needed room.

I've done most of the realm dungeons and have about 50 stamina. I did the new comer events up until the last banner, the EXP one. Now where do I go? Try the elite events? I tried the second banner on a daily dungeon, the NORMAL one, and I got my poo poo pushed in real quick.

I also got the Onion Knight because you guys won't stop talking about him so I guess hes good... should I give him a sword or a staff? Optimize gives him a staff and throws him in the back row. Also, keep burning my mithril on the lucky draw banners right?
