Grizzled Patriarch posted:Yeah, Dreamstage on Selphie. Gilgamesh has Gilgamesh Morphing Time and Zack has Apocalypse. Bartz is using Trueblade of Legend, but that doesn't seem like it's really worth using Mako Might on. But yeah, good point about Lifesiphon. Giving it to Selphie would also let me use Lifesiphon instead of Drain Strike more often, since I wouldn't need to worry as much about emergency healing options. Mako on TBOL can be the difference between not needing to carry protectga much of the time. Don't underestimate it.

Reforging TYRONE's Book of pussy destroying defense and a 7* Assassin's dagger (of which I am convinced is a conveniently shaped piece of a broken bottle) into 8* stuff makes me giddy. helps I can make use of all this other 4++ stuff ive hoarded.

Dr Pepper posted:So this thread's gotten really huge and a bit unwieldy. And with the major changes like 6 star gear and G5 a new thread would be nice. I'd suggest adding an explanation for Daily Dungeons & Greens, and Record Spheres & Motes. Maybe the basic way to craft and hone abilities, since some people might assume just reading it that if it's like Final Fantasy, then there must be MP to use abilities! I might be asking a lot, and I apologize if so.

You may want to include a minor FAQ pointing out that many buffs/debuffs have separate IDs and do stack with examples like Magic Break stacking with Full Break (but being overwritten by/overwriting Magic Breakdown), and the Soul Break Shout, which boosts just Attack, stacks with the skill Dark Bargain, that boosts Attack and reduces Defense, and if you have questions about more things like this, be sure to ask!

Should probably point out that there's the Hall of Rites now, so you can use stuff like Hero's Souls to pick out your favorite characters. Maybe mention that the game has playable characters from 1-14 well as Tactics. Final Fantasy Record Keeper: Shout, Shout, Let It All Out Edit I read it closer and gently caress. But you should still probably mention the Hall of Rites by name and in detail , it's a big enough feature to warrant a bullet point.

I think a cool addition to the game would be a USB with an "OSB buff" that lets you break the damage cap while it's in effect. Makes big single hits actually possibly worthwhile.

I like the new OP - definitely looks more streamlined to whats there now. In addition to previous sections (whats the "must have" list for abilities) i would recommend putting an example together of "How to progress in this game" IE 1. Do all the classic realm dungeons until you have like 90 stamina, then start doing the dailies as well as the classic dungeons. 2. Pull on the current banner every time you have 50 mythril. Use characters that you get relics for. Never use mythril for stamina refreshes. 3. Start putting together the list of recommended abilities 4. Do as much of the event dungeons as you can 5. As you get more relics, more characters, higher levels and more abilities you will start being able to do higher level event dungeon stuff 6. Also start doing elite dungeons I would add a few more definitions to the list: Shout Meta: An entirely physical team (minus healer), based on having Ramza's Shout Soul Break. Mage Meta: An entirely magical team based on having either Edea's or Kefka's or Krile's + MAG soul break. "<blank>-Fest" - every 3 months or so, a "fest" happens. This can be an orbfest (lots of dungeons that get you a crazy amount of xp, orbs & gil) or some sort of special banner (burst-fest had 5 banners, each with lot of BSSBs for example) Maybe also a typical composition for a team 3 DPS characters 1 healer 1 support With a bit of a description as to why this is important. Thanks for working on this!

I can put together a list of some helpful links and stuff, the OP is gonna get crowded if everything is explained. Just a few I can find pretty quickly are: Enlir's FFRK Database - Best for looking up just about any detail on a character, Record Dives, SBs, ect. MisterP Record Keeper PDF - For looking up quick tips for clearing realm dungeons, a great diagram on 6* Crystal competition, damage formulas and details. Roaming Warrior Search - For when you need to find ANY Roaming Warrior, you'll find it here. Banner Relic Details by kaonohiokala - For looking up specifics and details on future banner relics. Kongbakpao's FFRK Event List - Dates and details on current and future events. Reddit Ability Guide - Good base for explaining what abilities to make to start challenging the Ultimates, including recommended 3 and 4* abilities. Looking around to see if there's a better one somewhere. pichupal fucked around with this message at 23:32 on Oct 7, 2016 |

Lechtansi posted:Mage Meta: An entirely magical team based on having either Edea's or Kefka's or Krile's + MAG soul break. I'd just say "based on having stacking +Mag soul breaks," plus add something about mixed meta that uses both physical and magical, running off a mixed buff like Celes or OK.

Panic! at Nabisco posted:It will have its day when difficulty 200+ bosses show up and its defense piercing properties are actually useful Also, if I'm ever able to get Strahl Strafe, my BURNINATOR TEAM will be complete! I've already got Seph and Celes's BSBs, Terra's SSB2, and Meltdown. That said, yeah, Reunion's initial break may just be vanilla AoE damage, but its burst commands are workhorses. I don't think any other BSB has a defense-ignoring attack, which isn't as relevant now but will become very relevant later when the D200/250 stuff hits.

I want to get Lightbringer IX for another component of potential Team Holy Bursts, which is part of why I am not pulling on Tyro's 2 should it actually come out tomorrow like this calendar thing I'm looking at says. Speaking of which, are there any good characters with good 4x holy burst command enlight BSBs aside from Celes? Maybe Warrior of Light or Hope?

Hope does. Basch (4 Hits, 5 against a weakness) and WoL (4 Hits at 1700 DEF, 5 Hits at 2490) do too, but it'll be a while before those come out. There are a few other Holy BSBs that aren't EnLight BSBs but are still worth checking out, like Firion for Magic Blink, Raines for Mage Meta or Orlandeau (especially if you get his OSB to make up for long cast times). Edward and Agrias also offer Imperil Holy BSBs, with Edward bringing an ATK +50% buff and ATK/MAG and DEF/RES reducing Holy commands (and shares the banner with Pecil's BSB), and Agrias getting almost the exact same Burst as Beatrix (and it's on the good Orlandeau 1 banner)

Panic! at Nabisco posted:Edward's burst is good but it is unfortunately not on the same banner as Kain/Rydia's excellent BSBs on Kain 1. Fantastic BSBs for wind/earth teams respectively. Kain's BSB is Enthunder actually, which gels nicely with Lightning Dive. Pulling Cid's Goggles gives me extra incentive to go for Onion 1 - Luneth's spear has +Wind, which makes it great for Cid, and the SB itself has Enaero, allowing Luneth to really rip things apart.

So the Glimmer of Hope U+ is in 4 phases again, like Ultros U+, which means debuffs are canceled between each phase. I don't want to go through that torture again, so I need to hone my Full Break to r2 before I bother with it. I have more than enough MPOs, but I'm lacking ice and lightning (have 7/12 of each). Any idea how I can get five of those before the end of the event other than spamming the dailies and hoping?

1) have you cleared all of the classic and elite dungeons? 2) are you sitting on a terrifyingly large pile of gysahl greens? If the answers are yes and then no, you might be screwed.
