Way behind most of the thread, but I finally full cleared my first Torment today. :woop:

Jump Start Bahamut just exploded once I brought RW Cloud USB on USB Bartz with Zidane spamming imperils. :stare:

I was just looking at giving a Torment my first shot ever. Is wall not necessary or did you have it native? Because I do have Zidane USB and I have been meaning to see what a Cloud USB Steroid will do to it...

I have it on Tyro, although Bahamut blew up so fast I probably would have been fine without it.

My team was Zidane/Ramza/Yshtola/Bartz/Tyro. Zidane spammed his USB for the imperil, Ramza did Shout/USB/Chant, Ysh cast Asylum a couple times and did the MND Breakdown, Tyro cast Wall and breaks. Bartz did all the heavy lifting with Cloud USB, his USB, 30k+ per hit Snowball Strikes.

I need to start working on more Torments beyond just the job motes in the first fight. Bahamut happened to be weak to my strongest team so it worked out nicely as a place to start.

Did a dollar draw and two 11s, pretty happy with the results.

Dollar pull: Marche BSB, neat!
3/11: RAMZA BSB2!, Agrias LM, Ramza Chant (dupe)
2/11: Ramza LM!, Marche SSB

Very happy to score the two Ramza things. Now I have Ramza USB, BSB2, Shout, Chant and LM.

Now I just have to decide whether I can justify a third pull.

i am now at 6 dupes on the banner and all i wanted was the ramza stuff so i am trying to figure out if i can justify it too but i dont think i can because i still want to save for vivi stuff

Yeah I think I’m better off waiting for the Orlandeau USB banner than chasing USBs with a third pull. Plus right now I’m happy with my pulls, adding a 1/11 dupe pull would just sour that.

It’s almost dizzying I have so much to do on Ramza. He just needs to keep Super Shout, History’s Truth and Chant up while BSBWrathing and in theory breaking or Entrusting.

Ramza needs arms like an octopus for all these actions.

Ramza LMR is so good. :stare:

I mean, I knew it was considered one of the better ones, but drat it feels so right.

Edit: ProTip: remember to unequip Shout once you have Super Shout or you'll reflexively hit it several times. :doh:

Anything else I should be aware of besides only draw from event banners?

I restarted within the last year and hindsight being 20/20 I'd probably aim for something like this

First priority is the "holy trinity" of a Medica BSB, Wall and an ATK buff. One of the best ATK buffs in the game just made it's debut, Ramza BSB2. Pull the hell out of that banner till you get one, it's real good. Wall you're likely to be stuck using as a RW for quite some time unfortunately.

Otherwise save your mythril for fests. Once every 3 months is a festival that comes with a bunch of stacked banners, they're usually the best bang for your buck. Keep an eye on this thread and if you see any particular relics people are going nuts for maybe budget an extra pull on that banner. Stuff like Cloud USB, Bartz USB, Tidus USB are complete game changers. You're better off with any one top tier game changing relic than five mediocre things.

Most of the people in the thread have enough relics that the Fest banners tend to be 50% dupes so it can get undersold just how amazing they are. Try to keep that in mind when you hear people ranting about how "bad" the Fest banners are. They're AMAZING if you have zero dupes.
