I'm actually starting to think that the theory that they're actually trying to kill the global version is true.

They're gonna move up 7 star because nobody's dropping money, everybody's waiting for 7 star and step-ups.

Because they keep releasing poo poo no one wants, making new poo poo no one wants or cares about while being underwhelming, and not releasing poo poo that people DO want.

For all intents the new lunar years banner was actually pretty drat good and arguably better than anything thats coming from JP till 7*s hit.

But its incredibly stupid to keep delaying the FFIX banner when it comes with a fantastic upgrade to Garnet, which will make sniping the finish with esper challenges a million times better. And it doesn't help that they keep releasing junk on the shop instead of actually good deals.

This is what probably bugs me most. I can wait on banners. They'll come out eventually. But the really bad no-deals shop is just insulting.

As much as I've enjoyed this game, this is probably the only mobile F2P game I've never thrown any money towards whatsoever; on account of there never being anything I feel is worth the money or isn't a complete rip-off.

So we are apparently skipping several good banners to get the extremely mediocre FF15 Prompto banner/raid this week. Wtf gumi, where is ff9 and cg fina

Jeez, I was planning on pulling on the next FFXV banner just because I love the game...and then I see it has two 5* bases and nothing else new. Thanks for saving me the tickets, I guess?

Is the consensus on double dragon to just do it twice? I don’t care about the NRG but getting a tandem kill seems REAL tedious

I'm pretty sure I'm done with the game after February, actually. Will keep logging in to get the rewards and blow the rest of my resources on the FFIX banner, but that's likely it.

Do you have any 6* dual-wielders that you don't really use/use for explorations? Luneth? Lightning? Maybe Firion?

They're not the worst weapons, hardly the best, and benefit the most from being used together as their defensive bonuses are triggered by the other.

This event isn't that hard, so newer players are more likely to get an appreciate those things.

Free 10+1 was pretty cool. Emperor #1 and a couple garbage yellows I hadn't pulled in Cedona and Drace.

Nah it’s just all the units I’ve recently received. None of those are even non-dupes for what I have in my unit list already. I hit next instead of share, so that’s just the unit list. The flashing “New” is different there

Said gently caress it and did the 10+1.

Daily Half gave me another Kuja. 10+1 started me off with a Gold, which contained another Sozhe. The next to last, however, was a Rainbow, containing my first Elfreeda.

My 10+1 ticket was worthless, 4* was William and 10 blues. However, my 1/2 daily was a rainbow: Yun! Once I level and enhance him I'll have a chaining partner for my Nyxes who doesn't compete for the same gear.

Are you using a provoker? Provoking means both dragons target the provoker, so one skill gets overridden by the other.
