I got my first USB too. Unfortunately it was Ceodore's which seems really meh. Last RoP I got Golbez USB; FFIV sure loves it's defensive (i.e. garbage) USBs.

So I pulled Gogo's (V) BSB from RoP last night. Anyone have any luck using this as part of a team? It seems gimmicky but it also seems like it could be very powerful if it is used correctly.

It's an enwater entry on a +water rod. Ignore the commands and just drop Chain Watergas/Voltechs. He's one of the best water mages with that alone, though he'll be better once he gets his dive (which is dualcast water) and USB (which is bonkers). Pair him with Rydia and Strago and laugh at being one of the people who has a magic water team.

slowcast enelement + burst mode with pointless commands is teetering on the edge of "literally unusable" these days. if that places you as one of the better water mages, it says more about how bad water magic is than anything else.

The tools of a hero mean nothing without a solid core.

Arc LMR from the RoP (meh, it's a mind up on heals one). Squall and Snow LMRs from the lucky draw. Both new for guys I'm already using, Snow's (attack up on attacks) isn't groundbreaking but it's extra oomph since I bring him for the chain anyway, and Squall's en-ice will make his quad-9 attacks... quadder-9? I kid, it's a great early fight boost before his BSB2 goes off. 25 mythril well spent.

Thanks RoP for another dupe for a realm I barely have any relics in!

Only got one LMR from the lucky draw, but it was for Zack so I'm pretty happy with it at least.

INSTEAD I AM GOING TO WHINE ABOUT IT IN OTHER THREADS SO MY OPINION CAN FEEL VALIDATED IN AN ECHO CHAMBER I LIKE

Luneth AOSB from the RoP today, not bad at alllll, wish I had his USB.

5/11 on LMR draw, luneth, desch, vayne, mog and firion; en-wind will be a decent kick start on luneth, vayne dark damage boost is welcome and this game REALLY wants me to use mog, I have pulled both his USBs and BSB in the past 2-3 weeks.

I started playing Record Keeper this week. I normally can't stand mobile games, but this is the first mobile title I have played that I am legitimately enjoying a lot. I love Final Fantasy as is, and the nostalgia trip alone is enough to keep me hooked, but I am really liking the normal Realm Dungeon and how massive it is. The combat mechanics are really good and enough to keep me interested. I got raids unlocked the other day but haven't had a chance to play with anyone yet.

Eventually, but a new player will definitely have an easier time putting together 2 decent characters than a full level 99 team with appropriate elements and skills and buffs. You can probably find people on the discord willing to carry you through the fights though if you want to try them out. MP in this game is.. a neat idea, and when it works well its fun, but the implementation isnt perfect by any means. At least the fights aren't usually terribly hard.

On the home screen, if you scroll to the right, you should see something called "Power Up Dungeons". You can grind out some of FFRK's currencies/materials there. Shores of Wisdom - the dungeons designed for EXP grinding - are available at all times but on Sunday they give even more EXP
