Cobalt60 posted:Great, so I'll probably go with the crew below. To confirm, it's OK to use DW Aileens, right? That video has TDH stuff and I have none of those TMs. The guide on the wiki has a poorly fleshed out "Brute Force" strategy, which is what you'll use with that team. You need to deal with the all the attacks listed in Phase 1 (1 Arm Burst, 1 Genocide Beam, Up to 5 normal attacks) plus the World Destroyers that the body does below 70% HP and the Right Arm's buffs. Also, it sounds like the Right Arm goes buff-crazy after the body dies, so give those Aileens a way to dispel. Odin's fingersnap or Bushido Freedom will work. Finally, I'd suggest Tilith instead of Ayaka as healer so you can do the "No Magic" mission and get World Destroyer.

awesome much appreciated everyone. At the risk of getting annoying, let me ask a slightly different question. I haven't killed any of the following trial bosses, is there any particular order I should try them in? Reminder that I have no magic DPS other than BS Sakura who's not even leveled yet: Robut Echidna Malboro Moon man cold bird Elnath Sheraton EDIT: by "order" i mean do any of the items specifically help with other trials in a meaningful way?

If the reset bug is still around you can skip the preemptive attack of Big Ice Bird by closing and restarting the app twice to trigger the full heal & esper refill. If it happens on the boss' preemptive turn it'll just skip it making it way easier to kill it. Bring fire weapons to kill the bird, summoning Ifrit will oneshot the little birds. The rewards are a nice hat for anybody who needs HP, a DEF & SPR bonus when wearing hats, and a move that's great for arena (AoE chain stop ice attack) Echidna should be a cakewalk at this point too, but I don't think the Assassin's Vest will help much for Aigaion and Echidna's Kiss is just MAG+30%. Echidna and Big Ice Bird are two 10% TM Moogles though. The vest is handy for paralysis immunity and if you want to build evasion up too. Malboro is still the toughest(?) and his rewards are caster oriented. Moon is a good MAG rod but also staff mastery (SPR+50% with a staff) but you need casters for that fight. Sheraton has a good staff for healers or high SPR units if you want to try dual casting Holy. Elnath has a mace but idr if it was good since it doesn't have any killers on it and there's no mace mastery in the game afaik.

Next banner is the return of Yun, Ling, and the two Cupids. I hope I'll be able to pull at least one or two of them since I don't have any of them yet, and E. Yun being able to perfect-chain with Nyx makes him extremely appealing. Then there will be a one time pay-to-get 10+1 summon with a guaranteed 5* instead of 4*. But because Gumi still has to gouge you somehow, you won't be able to pull any limited units with this apparently. We're also getting an additional 1250 Lapis, 5x 1% trust moogles, and 4x 3* EX tickets over 14 days starting Friday. Keep in mind we're also getting the next wave of the valentine event which will give 580 extra Lapis along with two 3* tickets and a 4* ticket, and one of each King pot, 1/2/etc. of each tier ability cryst, and some 6* unit awakening materials. It's not super-amazing or anything but it's still quite a ways better than what we've gotten in past special events recently.

Any bets on how much the cash summon will cost? 5000 lapis is about $30, so given Gumi's recent track record, I'm betting $40.

It took me my entire stash of lapis and tickets, including everything accumulated during that event, to pull the Balthier I was chasing. I got a second one on my free pull this morning. I don't know whether to laugh or cry, but hey; I get to 7* my dude I guess!

McSpankWich posted:Wait, I have to use actual $$ to get the guaranteed 5*? Seriously, gently caress this game I think the new FFDOO gacha has kind of raised the bar with every pull having a guaranteed 5* attached. I decided to do a blood lapis 10+1 to give an effort towards having some kind of magic tank. Ended up with 3 of that poo poo ninja with a Ruskie name and a Barby.

The Mythril Chest of Abundance was $35 CAD and it was a 10+1 in tickets, a ATK+30% materia, 20 energy pots, and a 10% moogle. So based on that and recent bundles the guaranteed 5* 10+1 will cost *puts on blindfold, points arm out, and spins rapidly* ... $50! I'd do it if it was $10 (and probably get a third Fohlen or something) but almost everything in this game is the price of a new game just to roll for some more Bediles. I know that's the gacha profit model but I'm still gonna bitch about it. I did almost buy VLC Fina's Hat though, except by the time I got home from Halloween the game was in maintenance so I never got the chance to  e: also no SoM news at all, I was hoping they'd slip something in for the remake coming out this week but  that dream.

Its less FF3 DS and more a worse looking version of World of FFs "normal" characters which makes sense given that Nomura was the character designer for both games. Yoshida's art is far more appealing for the style.

World of FF was the best looking the 3D style has made the older characters look but I still wouldn't call it good. FFBE's higher quality sprites are the way to go. Some games just look better in 2D, the additional advantage is that Asian 3D games tend to game gigantic areas of blank space, that looks much better in 2D; example: the battle arenas.

The OC overflow is irritating, especially when they kinda piss on the FF crew in terms of usability. Hell even some of their choices from the games are questionable.

Making Locke, Bartz, Vivi, Shadow, Zidane and Edge into trash 3*s is unforgivable. Edit: $63.99 CAD in Canada! For $15 more you can buy a brand new full price copy of Dissidia NT for PS4.

There are still people buying in to Star Citizen and Shroud of the Avatar, which is to say there is a tragic surplus of stupid people that somehow have excess cash and nobody has figured out how to make them spend it on something good for the world. Or good. Or that exists.

It was basically a reply about how the monetization in gacha let's the continue to work on the game. Which is fine if it wasn't for the game still having a bunch of broken systems over there. It comes out tone deaf. By the looks of it no one bitting on the banner, as they should since it's complete poo poo.

"When people talk about game as a service, people tend to focus on the problem of payment associated to it. A lot of people seem shut out the idea and the word completely. We actually look at the whole thing from a bigger picture. (Because of the payment system), we can provide excitement, as well providing new content add new gameplay mechanics after game's release, allowing the game to exist in the long term. Because of that we can express more things through the game, and (I believe) people are focusing too much on the negative aspect of payment." I assume this is the snippet that is being talked about.

I thought I wouldn't like Opera Omnia's character style from the screenshots I saw, but in motion they are OK. Certainly better than something like FF3 DS imo. Of course, I think FFBE's sprites look better. $46 is absolutely ridiculous, but not surprising
