you got any tips? I need the Platinum exclusive cards

For the Durai tournament I was just using the standard corner 8s + some 5* card (I was using Yojimbo for even more 8s). Then play against other people and hope you get some lucky situations where you can abuse the Same rule.
Never put your 5* card in slot 5, because this tournament has the Order rule, so you might not get to play it if it's stuck there. Slot 4 worked nicely for me.
For the 4* card, I was using an 888 one in slot 3.

Of course, playing against other people means unpredictable things can happen, so if you just want a stable 3 platinum packs per tournament, just play the NPC instead and never worry about anything.

decided a couple months ago i wanted a simpler WAR axe glam, since i quite liked the "normal fantasy adventurer" vibe of the 6.1 outfit and wanted something to go with it. unfortunately i discovered there was only one glam i really thought fit.

so for the first time i've completed the HW relic grind :toot:




(do wish it, like all axe glams, sat like a foot [fulm?] lower and closer to the center when sheathed, they always look too high up)

hell yeah. been using minos lux ever since 3.5 and it'll take a loving incredible axe to make me change it

minos is so good. has that cool blue or red fire effect but the axe itself looks like a normal weapon rather than some ridiculous giant thing. you should look at the other HW relics because a lot of them are tops. you didn't need those poetics anyway

i'm a huge fan of the weapons that are just "a normal-ish weapon, but with crazy glow effects," yeah. after i finish the bozja 180-item one-time grind and finish up the gunblade, i'll probably move on to the bozja machinist relic (it's just a sawn-off lever-action shotgun).

You and I have the exact same taste in glowing stuff, I have minos lux and loyalty and ingenuity were my first two bozja weapons too (but I also have canopus lux)

DRG has a serious lack of "just a normal spear" spears rather than weird carapace parts, tines pointing all over, tridents. Stick with a point on it please. The moonward bident does look fancy but restrained though. Just wish the Ravel was dyeable since the ronkan metal doesn't match with a lot of what I want

I mean the holy lance is just a lance with some paint on it, the set from neverreap/fractal is just a normal rear end halberd. There's plenty of just regular polearms in the game.

It's better.


A Guisarme or a glaive would be preferable though. A Glaive-Guisarme would be best.

I'd even take a Bohemiam ear-spoon over a long spear. I'd like more bardiches, maybe give DRG a lucerne hammer. Or even a bec de corbin?

I'm just happy as long as I see no more disgusting fauchards.

I will browse the market board for the crafted versions of primal weapons, then go murder the primal repeatedly to get the dropped, untradable, non-particle version.

Exception is SAM, because the wind effect on Garuda's katana actually fits their aesthetic.

I've never seen anything that fits Titan's aesthetic.

it's really not so bad, the challenge log pays out, per week:
21.5k for playing enough triple triad (win 10 in battlehall, play open tournament)
2.5k for interacting with minigames (win 100 mgp, play 3)
27k for afk losing 5 lord of verminion bot matches

and that's before mini cactpot/regular cactpot/fashion report!

I've said this before when it's come up but do not sleep on Verminion tournaments. They're not at the same time every week it's like 3 days on, 3 days off or something. But you don't have to face human opponents, just queue for Master Tournament once you're registered.

The cheese strategy I use relies on Wind-up Kojin and Wind-up Gentleman, so you'd have to have done the Kojin to that point and the ARR Hildibrand quests. Summon 4 Kojin to A, 4 Kojin to C, and send them at the arcane crystal. Summon as many gentlemen as you can and send them to B. Once a crystal goes down, send the minions from that to the center. Should take about 3 minutes at most to win.

If you win 5 matches it's another 40k or more. If you win 10 matches 4 times, you can get a penguin pet from the achievement, and winning 10 matches usually rewards 80k-100k MGP.

Titans axe can work for certain warrior glams. I love the Ifrit, Ramuh and Susano swords. How can you be a cyber samurai if your blade isn’t on fire or electrified?

Started mixing in some trials to my daily card runs. No luck so far but this is the same long term grind method I used to clear the covenant ring gathering from Dark Souls 3. Any task is far saner if you do 1/100th of it over 100 days and so on.

Amazing how much Triad collection encourages you to play everything in the game. I'll need to go to Eureka, Heaven on High, it got me to push the BLU questline to the StB portion and I'm doing my first Beast Tribe dailies which are about what I expected from a MMO.

5.4: Just cleared the Relict, Matoya is the best character every time she's on screen. Perfect miss of sassy sourpuss and actually liking you and the Scion's company.

Every time Alphinaud executes himself socially I laugh pretty hard.

is it actually a unique model? most ultimate weapons seemed to use relic or raid weapons as base so i figured sam would too

For one that riff on a collection that didn't exist at the time, yeah, they're unique models. The SAM and RDM UWU weapons are unique, at least as far as Garland Tools says.
