Are they seriously adding this poo poo 18 hours into Sundaily. ffffffffff I'm so tempted to pull on Keeper's Choice 2. Like, I already have SG and Butz's Excalibur, and I kinda gave up on getting Ramza's Shout (at this point I have both Tailwind and Unsung Hero so I've got things to use SB bars on if I bring him along). But... the allure of finally having Shout! And of course TERROR's BSB, just for the hell of it. But I don't know about the freebie relics, I don't have any EnFire relics so none of the fire boosts would come in handy at the moment. ffff

LornMarkus posted:I'm going to bed now but in the morning I'm toying with the idea of doing a Mithril Revive run: blitz it and gain as much SB gauge as possible before dying then reset and hopefully blow it away outright. This is what I did, except I did hit and run - put Concentration II on healer, everybody in back row attacks, healer Curaja's, then flee from battle... lather rinse repeat. It's boring doing that 12-15 times (at least), but it saves a mythril! I just couldn't do this without more Medica SB casts because Pandora's Box is stupid. Haven't attempted the 180 yet, I'll worry about that tomorrow

Sure give me all the FF13 synergy I guess (+ something for Arc). That's actually the first relic I've gotten for a Dragoon at all, I think. I've been leaving Sky Grinder and Dragoon Jump at R1 all this time because I had little reason to hone them...

I had an out of town trip the last few days that left me so busy I barely touched the game at all, all my stamina went into running dailies when I could remember to do it. As such, I hadn't really done the current event yet so I've been catching up, and finally got to try out the Hamelin BSB that I pulled back on Thursday. So... Eiko's pretty much my perma-healer now, huh. Holy moly...

Didn't even know the new Nightmare dungeons were tonight. The Lucky Relic Draw for White Magic isn't even half-price? Pass. Even though not all the relics on that banner are strictly healing-related, I don't think it's worth it right now after pulling Eiko's Hamelin

now that's a good Lucky Draw. My FF12 physical synergy is already covered pretty well so I might as well combine the two Orichalcums. I already had Cait Sith's Yellow Megaphone but not gonna complain about getting the Green one, and I had zero relics for Agrias so the Kaiser Shield is more than welcome.

Haven't done the mote dungeon yet, just got around to doing the bonus battles though. Lamia was a fuckin SLOG, I tried bringing a mage team but the DPS was not all there, second Sheepsong RW ran out before the end. TERROR BALTIMORE's old Magitek Missiles SB ended up killing her. Was never in danger of dying thanks to a lot of mitigation, it was just... a long battle. Maybe I need to R3 one of these Chain spells already. The 12 Ultimate++ Knights though? I have Pencil and Ramza BSBs, so.... nuff said. What a bloodbath! I'd just used an MC3 lode on Pencil too to make him a slightly more ridiculous holy god of destruction, but I did pause for a second when I realized I can use an MC3 lode on Vaan now that I have his BSB thanks to the Debuff Lucky Draw. Next one then! I don't even know what my A-team should be now...

I'm on Android and I can't start the game since the update. Stuck forever on the initial loading screen. Force closed and restarted several times, turned the phone off and on, disabled wi-fi in case that was being goofy, nothing's worked. I worry about having to try uninstalling the game, although it SHOULD be connected to the Google Play account... I hope.... (All this stamina going unused right now )

ahahaha, Hit and Run worked wonders on the U++. It's super easy to build up SB bars for him because his first action is always Haste, followed by a physical attack that usually does less than 1000 to someone in the back row. I nuked the poo poo out of him with Vaan and Pencil BSB's, had Agrias doing Cleansing Strike and Saint Cross, Tyrone doing Breaks, and Eiko BSB to heal and raise everyone's crit rate. He ended up Stopping Eiko immediately after she got the BSB off, but that was the best person he could have Stopped because I didn't need any more healing and just continued to barf damage at him. I never even used my second RW Shout cast. I tell ya, I'm super blessed to have gotten Vaan BSB and Agrias Cleansing Strike on that Debuff Lucky Banner. Using an MC3 lode on Vaan was nice too because he couldn't get 5-hit Thief's Revenge outside of FF12 realms before (or unless he had Burst active...). I realized that I'd been building up a bunch of motes I hadn't been using so I started buffing up Vaan further, and figured I may as well give Eiko some buffs since she's my go-to healer now... except she apparently doesn't have Record Drive access. What? Wasn't the last FF9 event focused on Eiko, with her on the banner, even though she wasn't a new character... and she didn't get Record Drive access? Okay...

I think I've drawn blanks on the 100-gem pulls ever since getting Pencil's BSB, but I managed to get Aerith's BSB from this. EVEN MORE HOLY DAMAGE. Not sure it's worth replacing Eiko BSB as my healer though?

KataraniSword posted:Because most of my good characters are at Lv80+, all of my less good ones are at Lv65, and I'm tired of burning stamina constantly on dailies just for more greens? Besides, 62 stamina isn't even a full run of ++ Sundaily. We got MC3's with Level 99 caps now though... unless you're just using a lot of eggs to get everyone to 99 ASAP. I only egged up Luneth for the RM but I have Tyrone, Pencil, and Vaan in the 90's right now slurping up the EXP. Even if it's only 62 stamina, still feels silly to drop everything to do bonus battles now now now, unless you're hurting for another MC3 lode to break. Mondaily isn't as useful as extra EXP right now.

Goodness, those bonus battles really were a cinch. I had fairly good synergy going into this so I haven't pulled on either of the FFX banners, and I didn't even hone Sapphire Shot past R2 (I'm really hurting for Major Lightning Orbs, honing Thief's Revenge to R3 did a number on me). Omega Weapon was indeed a bit of a slog once I ran out of Sapphire Shot uses, but Vaan BSB and Agrias Cleansing Strike was mitigating the hell out of everything except for Gravity... which Eiko BSB healed up nicely. I really really want more MC3 lodes.

So what was the recommended procedure for the Witch Hats? Combine them into a 8+++, or have two 6+'s? I don't run mage teams very often as I don't have many good mage SB's, all I have off the top of my head (that aren't complete poo poo) are Rinoa BSB, TERROR Magitek Missiles, Serah SSB, and Exdeath Grand Cross. I have plenty of gil so I'm not really worried about reforge costs.

Varance posted:Switched over to my lv99 Ashe with Dusk's Decree. 427 MAG, which should translate to 575 magic vs Omega. Thank you for this. Finally got Omega Weapon down to a combination of this, and just saying gently caress it to mitigation and putting Mako Might on Quistis since she had my only feasible native Hastega for this. Even though her MND was poo poo so Stops wouldn't last as long, I was still able to finally keep chaining them while Rinoa and TERROR nuked Omega down with the Ashe BNB casts. I really was overcomplicating this, but I also needed the DPS on the Cleansing Storms. As for the Atlas Ultimate++... the only Drawtaliate character I had anything good on was Basch (Apocalypse Shield), but I don't think the extra damage from his SB helped out that much. A second Crushing Grasp landing right after I reapplied Shout made things scary, but still managed to finish him off on the first try before I could get Ultimate Roared into oblivion. Now to figure out who to use this MC3 lode on. I was about to use it to break TERROR if I was still struggling with Omega Weapon. Agrias is a maybe now that I have Cleansing Strike, but usually Pencil is covering my Knight needs since I have his BSB. I still never really bring Ramza along on parties even though I have Tailwind and his BSB, since I usually let Tyrone cover breakdowns. Or I just say gently caress it and break someone who has an RM I want.... maybe Cloud for the 30% sword damage? Gah, I hate that these MC3's are being rationed out so slowly when there's so many choices.

Going forward, it's hard to justify pulling on the themed Nightmare banners now when your "guaranteed 5*" could still be a landmine like Healing Grimoire. At least when they were half price it felt more worth it to roll the dice. Except for the time I pulled 2 Healing Grimoires on the same lucky draw. I do like how the select screen on each Nightmare has swapped out the word "Difficulty" for "Rounds". 20 Stamina, 130 Rounds... um

AweStriker posted:How is anyone even supposed to handle Vinuskar, anyway? I tried, but it does wtfdamage wtfast and if it decides to use Bite on any of its first three or so turns whoever it hits is basically dead. Can't survive one hit of Bite? I mean sure, it was doing 4200+ before I could get mitigation up, on my first attempt it hit Vaan twice in a row and killed him, even with synergy bonus HP. On the second try it didn't pick on the same person and I was able to get Protectga and SG up, and from there the fight went swimmingly with further debuffs. The repeated Sword Dances for ~1000 were starting to add up but then Eiko got her BSB. If you still can't survive the first Bite, maybe put Amarant's Draw Fire RM on a tanky character? Would still be dangerous unless they're in the back row though.

Yeah okay, those bonus battles were pretty easy. I even accidentally killed the Flans and watched Flan Master revive them, had enough hones to kill them all again and still got full medals. The dolls were whatever, AOE's all day and they never got a chance to transform. Guess I don't have to pull on the FF4 banners after all.

Bonus battles were easy with this new FF3 synergy, all clear first attempt with no S/L's. Ultimate+ was kinda fun! Ultimate++ got a little scary but wasn't too bad. As for Ahriman... woof. Even with all that mitigation up (including Vaan BSB), that dude still hits HARD. Tyrone ended up dying before Eiko could get Prayer of the Lost off, but I didn't need another charge of SG and was able to blitz him down. Luneth with BSB active constantly interrupting his attacks with the 4-hit wind attack (with increased critical chance from Prayer of the Lost) put in work. I'm sad there was no blank MC3 for this event though. I know we got the Onion Knight MC3 instead, but.... so many chars need breaking.....

poo poo, I got wrecked by the Guardian and completely forgot I had Sephiroth BSB. I don't think I have time to deal with this now, but I'll keep that in mind the next time the Nightmare dungeons open. At least I finally got around to doing Mote Ifrit. Vessel of Fate RW was a godsend, since I wanted to bring in Rinoa since I have her BSB but at the same time I wanted to debuff the hell out of him with Vaan and Agrias. Fight ended up going beautifully once everything was in place. Can't imagine doing the CM though...

Bahamut SIN... whatever, no problem, of course. Had to slow down killing him to kill the 8 creatures, but I got full medals so missing out on that condition wouldn't have affected anything I guess. Caius... it was pretty cute the way he hit my healer Eiko twice in a row on the first attempt and killed her before I could do anything. It's like the developers are saying "Yeah we know you guys like to S/L out of these fights, so catch these hands". Once he split up the opening attacks and I could get all my mitigation up, fight was a breeze, as expected. Cagnazzo though. I remember when everyone was talking about how Cagnazzo was one of the hardest Ultimate+'s even in the Japan version, so I feared it. I almost didn't bother trying it because I didn't think my party was up to snuff, but I managed to clear it and was pretty stoked. Figured I could do it now with fun new toys like Rinoa BSB, but holy poo poo I am getting trolled to hell and back. The fact that he can start charging water at any time he wants, without any rhyme or reason as to when he decides to do it, keeps resulting in failed attacks. Oh I thought I could hit him with ice, now he's charging up. Hopefully I can get three attacks in in time... oh I guess not, the Tsunami came out and the last lightning attack whiffed. Fine, at least I can hammer him with ice for a while... oh look at that, he's charging water again. gently caress! On my second attempt he actually started off the fight charging water before anybody had even used an action yet, holy poo poo. I think I need to go with a different team approach...
