If I have a character use a Soul Break that gives them Enwind (like Cloud's Climhazzard), and then have that character summon a Finishing Touch RW, will the Finishing Touch still benefit from the Enwind? I ask because I've had Climhazzard for Cloud for awhile now, but I haven't managed to pull Ragnarok yet.

Beatrix: Lifesiphon R3, Banishing Strike R3, Seiken Shock Tyro: Alexander R3, Multibreak R1, Sentinel's Grimoire Leon: Draw Fire R2, Aegis Strike R2 Minwu: Protectga R2, Curaga R4, Will of the White Mage Cecil: Life Siphon R3, Saint's Cross R2, Paladin Force RW: Shout

Super goddamn mad at this bullshit game right now. Trying to level up a bunch of low level characters in the 90 stamina XP dungeon with Celes and Gilgamesh babysitting with those RMs that are supposed to draw single target magic and physical attacks. Also have Magic Lure and Draw Fire on them since apparently the materias' effects don't last through all three rounds. Finally managed to finish the first round with everyone alive, start the second round and... one of those loving dragons hits one of my low-level characters with Aeroga and one-shots them. At this point I just assume that the magic-draw RM only works on the first round of the dungeon, quit and restart. Start the round, Celes manages to cast Magic Lure and... the Dragon completely loving ingores her and one-shots the exact same low-level character with Aeroga. ...WHAT THE GODDAMN gently caress. So loving goddamn mad at this bullshit right now and my phone trying to autocorrect all my cursing is NOT loving HELPING GODDAMMIT AAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Inge posted:(e.g. double tap home and swipe the program on android) Not sure how to do that on my phone. Triangle is back, circle takes me to back out to the screen on my phone where all the apps are, and the square opens up the task manager. If I use the circle to go out to the apps screen and try to reenter the game from there, it just goes right back to where it was when I hit circle. If I use the task manager and hit "Clear All", it'll close Record Keeper, but then when I go to reopen the program, it'll ask me if I want to resume where I left off. If I tell it no, it bumps me back out of the last battle I was in but still consumes my stamina. If I tell it yes, it goes right back to where I was in the fight when I opened the task manager to close the program, which is useless to me if the one of the guys I'm trying to level is already dead.

KnoxZone posted:As expected, the second wave of triple broken characters arrives tomorrow. This group is all the primary female characters in games (for games like VI and XIII it becomes secondary females). Makes me sad that I've pretty much given up on the U+ for this current event. Even with decent synergy and soul breaks, I just don't feel like I have to hones to go the distance, and it doesn't help that I don't have the durations of some of these defensive effects memorized, so they end up lapsing and someone dies. Or everyone gets hit with Slowga and then get torn apart at the boss's leisure since I have no native Hastega and bringing a RW Hastega means forgoing SG/Stoneskin. And I don't have the patience to Hit and Run to build up Soul Break charges (doesn't help that one time I tried this, the boss still managed to get off a spell that left my healer near dead before I fled the fight). What's the next event after this one? Hopefully it won't be as insanely overtuned as this one.

NaanViolence posted:Ahriman is not overtuned. The U++ def is though. Sorry, I misspoke; when I said "no native Hastega" I meant no FF XII Hastega. I have hastegas from other realms, but the one time I tried running a non-FF XII team ended poorly. It was the attempt I mentioned earlier where I was trying the hit and run tactic to build soul break charges. Turns out not having realm synergy to boost my party's speed stats means Ahirman can get off an attack before all five characters can attack, and at one point Y'shtola ended up eating a Piercing Firaga to the face which dropped her to near zero before I could pause and flee. So... yeah. gently caress this U+. There'll be other MCIIIs later on down the line.

Decided to throw 25 Mythril at the Lucky Draw for the hell of it. Walked away with Bartz's Cloak and a Wizer Rod. Was hoping for a Galuf relic (which I'm fairly certain at this point is never going to happen for me), but I'll happily take another BSB and Wind-boosting armor. Speaking of Wind-boosting gear, I now have: Air Knife (V) Air Knives (XIV) Cid's Goggles+ (VII) Bartz's Cloak (V) I also apparently have like 15 different SBs that are Wind-elemental to some degree, including Cloud's OSB, a few Enwinds, and some Imperil Winds, too.

KataraniSword posted:Sounds like time to start working on a mono-element team. I have the following to choose from: Bartz - Blade Wing, Choco Romp, Light of the Four Cloud - Climhazzard, Finishing Touch (pretty sure this combination makes him an insta-lock) Cid (VII) - Dragon, Big Brawl Squall - Lion's Roar Zidane - Stellar Circle 5 Freya - Six Dragons, Cherry Blossom Eiko - Withering Winds (I also have her SSB and BSB, so she's probably going to be my healer) Paine - Sword Dance Fang - Megaflare Thancred - Jin-Chi-Ten Some of these I also have non-Wind SBs for that I didn't bother listing since the point of this is to focus on the Wind element stuff. Cloud's obviously a lock, since he's got both his OSB and his Enwind SB; but after that I'm kinda suffering from decision paralysis. I'm kinda leaning towards Bartz, Freya and Fang since those offer me two addtional Enwind effects and an Imperil Wind effect. I'm not sure if it would be worth dropping one of them for either Paine or Thancred's Hastega.

Hey, Omega!   First attempt had Yuffie in place of Minwu running Lightning Veil and Halting Rumba, but got wiped out by a flamethrower before I could S/L it. Swapped in Minwu, and after a few times S/L'ing to get a Stop off as the first action, nailed him.

I was sitting here pondering my potential Wind-element based team, and it occurred to me I have a potentially decent setup for a Holy-element team: Paladin Cecil with Paladin Force Firion with Weaponsmaster Cid Raines with Seraphic Ray Aerith with White Materia and Pulse of Life Penelo with Intercession and Mincing Minuet I've got two +Holy swords (Excalibur IV+ and Sun Blade II), Basch's +Holy shield (which I'm kinda regretting fusing up to a 6* now, but eh, life goes on), and a ton of staves and rods with +Holy for the casters. What kind of ability/RM setup should I be looking to run with these guys?

Cid Mission for U+ went fairly painlessly. Had Cid Raines running Memento Mori + Dark Zone (though he was only hitting around 7k per hit... guess I should've used one of the +Darkness damage RMs instead of Fallen Gunblade?); Lightning running Powerchain + Full Charge in the back row with a gun; Fang in the back row running Blood of the Wyvern and Dragoon Jump; Sazh with Magic Breakdown and Full Break, plus started the fight off with Godsend for Protect and Regen; and Vanille running Shellga and Curaga, with Miracle Cure for a medica when needed. Shout for RW.

U++ cleared.    RW was a Gilgamesh BSB. This was my third party/RW configuration, and it took a couple of S/L attempts, but I eventually managed to get everything to line up where I had enough mitigation up that he couldn't hurt me while Vaan, Rinoa and Basch dismantled him with Burst commands and counterattacks. Speaking of which: Evil Fluffy posted:Vaan's BSB just shuts down any magic heavy enemy though. Being able to completely shut down those AoE spells on the turns magic blink was down was what basically made this doable. Between Ark Blast, Keeper's Tome and Full Break, I was able to knock the damage down from 3k per hit to 3 digit hits. Shock Trooper posted:I've got 7 BSB's... Vaan, Pencil, Eiko, Ramza, Rinoa, Sephiroth, and Aerith. Still gonna totally pull on that Black Friday banner, half price or not. 16 BSB's. Firion, Leon, P. Cecil, Bartz, Faris, Terra, Aerith, Sephiroth, Squall, Rinoa, Zidane, Eiko, Tidus, Vaan, Fang, Tyro. Still gonna pull on the Lucky Draw. Shame there's no RM to give Combat abilities a chance to trigger twice.

Zurai posted:Porom's actually stacks with literally everything in the game. The problem is that, when you're using that ... your healer isn't healing. Which is usually a problem on any fight where you really care about a stacking attack buff. And Porom doesn't have the skillset to do anything but heal or buff. Porom's ATK/MND/Crit boostga feels more like something you'd set up as a roaming warrior than something you'd want your dedicated healer running for normal content.

I've beaten all of the mage nightmares and am working on the support ones right now, but I don't have enough combat relics to field a team for the combat nightmare. What do you have available? I just did that one a few days ago, stumbled through it without knowing how the hell the gimmick worked, managed to clear it, then looked up the actual mechanics online and was able to Master it. If you can field at least three strong physical fighters and a healer with a Wall Soul Break, you should be able to pull it off.

Multiplayer hypothetical question: if I were to stick Ramza in the back row with an instrument so that he could do Shout and Full Break, would I be better off gearing him for Attack to get a bit more damage in, or Mind so that Shout's Hastega lasts longer? For what it's worth, front row is gonna be Vaan spamming Ark Blast and its Burst Commands with the occasional Mug Bloodlust or Thief's Revenge as needed.

IllegallySober posted:I guess I'd better figure out how to make Snowspell Strike then? It's unlocked using Spellblade motes from the mote event a few months back. Spend 1 mote to unlock the Snowspell Strike sphere on a character in Record Dive, 4 motes to unlock the ability for the character to use Spellblade 6* abilities, and then 15 motes to get a copy of the ability itself. If you weren't around for that event, I think someone said that eventually those motes will be available from some kind of event content later on down the road. Note that only characters with natural Spellblade 5* can unlock the ability to use Spellblade 6* abilities, which means it's currently limited to Bartz, Celes, Squall, Paine, Delita and Tyro.

$1 pull was nothing noteworthy. 11-pull got me Elder Staff (repeat), Lust Dagger (nice, finally have a SB for Luneth besides Advance), Lust Dagger (repeat) and... Gungnir! No OK stuff, but I'm fine with that. There's still the Lucky Draw this Friday. 17 BSBs now. ... Also, Luneth's Burst Commands are Combat-type. Weird; I'd have expected Dragoon, given that it's a lance.

In multiplayer beta news, finally managed to get into a good group and down the U+ Ifrit fight. Gave up on the Wind-boosted Cloud + Fang strategy and instead opted to go full support with Vaan and Faris debuffing the ever-loving poo poo out of Ifrit while everyone else set up buffs, tossed out heals and blasted Ifrit with spells.

My old phone bricked itself earlier today. Got a new phone and all my FFRK stuff was saved to my Google Play account so that's fine, but I don't have a Facebook account so I lost what little progress I'd made in Kingdom Hearts Unchained X. I've spent the last 2 hours fruitlessly searching through the terrible in-game party search function to try and track down the group of people I was partied with to try and get some information that might help Square Enix customer support migrate my old account to my new phone without using Facebook. I was unable to do so. Finally gave up on it for the night, hopped on Record Keeper and threw 100 gems at Banner 2, not really expecting anything useful. Got Refia's BSB.
