i think the lesson to be learned here is just don't pull on banners or play the game or you'll regret it somewhere down the line when things are better and/or brought back

Yeah when I pulled Hope's OSB last month, I was excited to throw it on Raines for some holy carnage, until I saw that it was a thrown weapon and now it's a mostly useless stat stick.

Guardian Mog is cool and good Saved my bacon when Bismarck when in his nutso phase after RW wall wore off. The final blow actually came from a lifesiphon as Kain didn’t finish it with his BSB. He certainly was going to get an attack off before Yshtola got her Asylum off and Eiko had no more SB built up. I did get Enki from this mess of a fight, though!

Read this guide: https://www.reddit.com/r/FFRecordKeeper/comments/71mq6p/a_guide_to_3_offensive_magicite_decks/ Basically, 3* ones that boost element offense and provide stat buffs or imperils. Enkidu is easily the best for general purpose use because it's an insta-cast 40% HP AoE heal + esuna that anyone can use.

I'm not really mad about renewals massively privileging people who started in the past year, but it would've been cool to get some kind of bone for having an older account like 1 mithril for every event you'd already cleared the mithril from or something for a net of probably one 11-pull.

Bard Banner isn't that bad, they stuck Onion BSB on it. No LMR which is an odd choice. Oddly enough, it makes the banner a no pull for me with too many dupes, but it's honestly pretty nice. Edward USB - MAG, RES & MND +30% for 25s, Haste & Magical Quick Cast 2 Mog USB - ATK, MAG, & MND +30% for 25s, Quick Cast 3 Kefka BSB2 - 8 Random Target Dark/Bio Attacks, Attach Dark and Burst Mode
Cait Sith BSB Edward BSB Kefka BSB1 Onion BSB Cait Sith SSB2 - 8 ST White Non-Elemental Attacks, Party Crit +50% Mog SSB Edward SSB The easiest way to think of Kefka's BSB2 is like a magical Squall BSB2, but with a MAG debuff attached. Not bad with easier sources of cast time buffs for magic like Allegro con Moto. pichupal fucked around with this message at 04:28 on Oct 25, 2017 |

Eh, Onion BSB is bad because it replaced the more potentially useful Mog/Echo BSBs. ATK/MAG buffs are pretty common now and Onion will clash with Fabula Raider. I'm waffling on the pull - both USBs would be fantastic, but I'm not sure if I can budget a pull for it.

It's really weird they didn't put any Echo stuff on there. There are so few opportunities to put Echo stuff in Global, and they squander this one? She's missing like two BSBs by this point that she had in JP.Captainsalami posted:What happened to the daily quests? I loved those. The way it worked in JP is that they got it for a week or two as a "Beta" or trial period thing, then it went away, then it came back as a permanent feature. It'll probably work the same way in Global.

They datamined another BRA BRA banner that features Mog and Deuce's USB, so they could be staggering the new relics to one of the other BRABRA events? Echo BSB could be on the way along with Edward and Mog's LMRs. I feel like the only reason Mog BSB isn't on there is because it's a rod, and not an instrument or armor. Edit: Whoops, it was Mog and Deuce, not Edward.

Got 100 myth set aside for the pull, myself. Ed USB/BSB are top prizes to me, Mog USB also is cool. Eiko/Kefka1/OK are dupes, but I don't care, rest is worth my time. Also, first sub-30! Vs Bismarck Rapha, 99, fully dived, Shellga, Hell Lightning, BSB, Gathering Storm RM OK, 99, entrust bot + VoF, Dr Mog's Teachings Shantotto, 99, partially dived, Chain Thundaga, Sudden Thunder, Mako Might Desch, 98, partially dived, wrath, battleforged, BSB. Rosa, 99, partially dived, wrath, Ace Striker, USB. Various defensive magicite, 88 Hydra Main. That Hydra got the killshot at 28.5 when I got freaking pixel'd. Thinking that Chain Thundaga'll be much better for Rapha, since Shantotto never cast it and HL is slow as hell feeling even with TGCid Mode.

ceaselessfuture posted:How long was the gap between the 3rd Anniversary and the FFXII Larsa banner? Three weeks. The timeline went Anniversary End -> FF9 Freya/Beatrix event -> FF5 Kelger/Xezat event -> FF12 Vayne/Larsa event. Keep in mind, though, that that is 1) six months away and 2) global has been a lot more open about rearranging event order nowadays. The banners usually stay fine, but they might push your favored event ahead, or backwards, meaning you don't have the same timeframe to save mythril that you are expecting.

When is Wall next expected to show up on a banner? A friend of mine got into the game several months ago but has been unable to push beyond the 140-180 range due to not having Wall and also holding few hastegas. (He's managed to coast for a while on Yshtola's BSB, yet Nightmares of all things were giving him trouble.)

In the mean time it would be probably best to direct him towards good native hastega effects instead, and RW wall instead. Unless something strange happens and we get a global exclusive banner with a wall on it somehow. Attestant fucked around with this message at 10:13 on Oct 25, 2017 |

so is this bard banner good if i dont have literally a single item on it. i'm up over 200 mithril now with the renewal banners a little less than half done and i decided there are too many dupes on xv renewal for me to pull on that (and with airstep sword and noctis lmr already along with iris' moogle i think i already have the good stuff)

Do we have anymore events coming up where we can farm Greens? My huge stockpile is starting to run out. Also is Zack's CSB coming up on any future banners? It's something I'd like but I'd rather not take a swing on the FF7 renewal banner or some poo poo.
