Schwartzcough posted:Also, trying to make the singular white mage for FFII into an offensive caster.... people need him to be healing since he's the only healer. It's weird.

Record Dungeon: - Releasing in December 2017 - Foretolds an original story of "FFRK" - Famous scenes from existing FF titles will be fully remade in pixel art - Will be using a brand new system The main component of Record Dungeon to look out for is that it makes use of a system that is totally separate from existing contents. They will not be like weekly events. Furthermore, they are designed in a way to give all players a fair start. The game screen for Record Dungeons will also be completely new. Instead of a selection menu like we have for current contents, you will be moving through dungeons in an Airship. This gives players a feeling of adventure. The original FFRK soundtrack will also be played in Record Dungeon! Record Dungeon Menu Screen:  Another main attraction of Record Dungeon are the memorable FF scenes in pixel art that are completely made from scratch. The back of our characters, backgrounds, etc. All are fully remade. You can also see new sprites like FFVII's Biggs, Wedge & Jessie. Even Cloud in a cross-arm pose.

Zonko_T.M. posted:MONK: Lifebane is pure damage. I can't think of any 6* capable monks who can't use Omega Drive, or any real reason you'd use Lifebane over OD outside of Prishe's BSB, which has a cmd1 that gets a boost from using monk skills. I have Prishe's BSB. I don't usually bother with Lifebane. Of course, the two compete for Fire Crystals, and I'd agree on honing Omega Drive first.

Also, there's across the board SB generation gain on abilities (currently, most 5* abilities generate 60 SB, while 6* abilities generate 70 SB): (Fastcast means at least Celerity/Thief-level casting time; White Magic's slightly faster casts don't count) Two notable exceptions: 2* Samurai ability Retaliate is 80 SB gain (presumably as a consolation offset for not getting hit), and 6* Dragoon ability Sky High is 90 SB gain (despite being elemental). For comparison, a normal attack is 50 SB gain, being attacked is 50 SB gain, Lifesiphon is 150 SB gain, and Wrath is 180 SB gain. Ace Striker/Battleforged increases attack/ability SB gain by +50%, as does hitting a weakness (combined, they apply in order, so it's actually more than a +100%- a 60 SB gain hit becomes a 135 SB gain hit when hitting weakness under Ace Striker/Battleforged) So under the new system Snowspell Strike, Meltdown, and Valigarmanda will be 180 SB gain if hitting a weakness under Ace Striker/Battleforged, compared to 225 SB gain by Lifesiphon or 270 SB gain by Wrath under the same conditions. (This means Celes weakness hits for 240 SB gain with Snowspell Strike and 210 SB gain with 5* Spellblades with her LM2) It's worth mentioning that there's a lot of animation changes, as well, mostly for faster animations and/or accommodating extra hits.

XI's getting a banner, too, though it's not a full event as such. It does have a lucky draw! For completion's sake, the new legend spheres are Prishe and Zeid.

As far as I know, only some special dooms from bosses have ever overwritten an active Doom timer, like Barthandelus. I don't know exactly in this case, though. +30% MAG/RES and +30% MAG/-30% RES are two different IDs and will stack. Someone can correct me but I think the subsequent subtraction won't replace the boost, just applies itself as normal (I forget if that's to the base or the boosted number, though).

Hoo boy, this incoming Type-0 event in JP is a doozy. Introducing King and Cinque, of course.  (Queen's sprite is updated as well, here's an old view for comparison)  But the biggest shake-up is the first new ability school since Witch: Heavy! (The Japanese is "Physical Heavy", whereas Combat is "Physical Attack", Celerity is "Physical Speed", and Support is "Physical Support") 4* Heavy, Heavy Charge: Single-target physical attack, +1 Heavy Charge, maximum 2 stacks  5* Heavy, Grand Charge: 4 single-target Earth/Dark physical attacks, +1 Heavy Charge, maximum 2 stacks  5* Heavy, Gigant Swing: 3/4/8 single-target Earth physical attacks with 0/1/2 Heavy Charge, resets counter after use  5* Heavy, Blast Burn: 1/2/6 AOE Earth physical attacks depending on 0/1/2 Heavy Charge, resets counter after use  The list of 5* Heavy users: Garland (I), Wol (I), Guy (II), Dark Knight Cecil (IV), Leo (VI), Cloud (VII), Angeal (VII), Ward (VIII), Zeid (XI), Gabranth (XII), Gladiolus (XV), Meliadoul (Tactics), Cinque (Type-0), Wrieg (Beyond), Viking (Core), Berserker (Core), Tyro (Core) There's also two new abilities for Holy Magic support! 5* White Magic, Diada: 3 single-target Holy white magic attacks, med % minor Imperil Holy  5* Bard, Goddess's Hymn: MND +10~50% to party  As for the banners, we have our very first white magic OSB, as well! Banner 1 posted:King's Outsiders [USSB, +10 ATK] - 12 single-target Lightning/NE ranged physical attacks, En-Lightning, ATK & DEF +30% and Machinist Ability Double to user Banner 2 posted:Nine's Shapeshifter [USSB, +10 ATK] - 10 single-target Wind/NE jump attacks, Imperil Wind, ATK & DEF +30% and Wild Lance to user Hogama fucked around with this message at 14:10 on Nov 22, 2017 |

As a follow-up on Type-0, since it's open: King is Black Magic 3/White Magic 3/Combat 4/Support 4/Machinist 5/Sharpshooter 5 Cinque is Black Magic 3/White Magic 3/Combat 5/Support 5/Heavy 5 ...unfortunately for the pair, they have some miserable equipment support: King is Daggers/Guns, Cinque is Daggers/Hammers. Just Hammers. Even Cid IV has Axes, too. ...AND Cinque gets a Support-tier ATK score. Anyway. King LM1: Small physical damage up when equipping guns King LM2: Grants Haste and Instant Cast 3 at the beginning of the battle King LMR: En-Lightning for 25 seconds at the start of battle Cinque LM1: Small physical damage up when equipping hammers Cinque LM2: When using Heavy abilities, high chance to grant the user Heavy Charge +1 Cinque LMR: En-Earth for 25 seconds at the start of battle Further details on the new abilities: Abilities posted:Diada And to round things out, the new SB animations from the first banner. King USB King BSB King SSB Cinque USB Cinque BSB Cinque SSB Rem OSB

Neutral Zone Trap posted:Marche BSB. Single target, party atk/mag 30. CMD1 is a triplehit +15% knight for 3 turns. CMD2 is a 2hit sentinel. It's good but not the greatest. At least the commands have utility to go with the ability meta. So it'll stack with pretty much everything, and even be a boost for the holy mage stuff that's coming in the next six months. (Also a tertiary benefit in reducing CC time.) But it's still not the Marche relic you WANT. v True, which is one reason it doesn't improve its stock much, but it's something amidst the sea of ATK/MAG boosts.

Global datamining goes up to the looming Onion Knight USB event: Schedule seems to be FFTA -> FFIX -> FFXII -> FFXIII-2 -> VI -> III I, XIII, and XIV torments are translated The Girls Wardrobe event is also translated Meia and Dimensions 2 remain untranslated, as well as the Record Missions; however, some of the Record Mission relics have been translated. Yuffie's BSB2 and LMR, Kimahri's USB, and Warrior of Light's LMR Garland's OSB from Mobius, too. In addition, while the banner headers themselves have not been translated, all the Super Fest relics ON the banners have been. Seems like they'll be cobbling together a fest for the rest of us. Edit: Well then.

Barrage is 4 hits at full 1x damage. Comparative skills: 6* Northern Cross is the same potency. Flare Strike is the same potency (though over 5 hits, so a higher damage cap). It's slightly stronger than most of the physical 5* elemental skills (though the Darkness skills are as strong or stronger, with their own drawbacks). Full Charge is still stronger but contingent on having a way to cast it faster to keep a higher average. Dragoon Jump is the strongest potency 5* NE ability at 4 x 1.23x, with Jump time. So Barrage doesn't dethrone anything but it's perfectly good non-elemental damage. It is random target, though.

There was a Water Pick-Up Banner in JP that served as the "banner 2" to the OK USB event (which has just a single event banner). It's possible that's what's been datamined. A quick refresher of what JP's looked like: Water Pick-Up Banner posted:Edge's Kiku-ichimonji [USSB, +10 ATK] - 10 random Water/Lightning physical attacks, Wild Moon to user

It's also the VI event for Leo and Edgar and... well, actually, it's another bonanza for Locke, who gets up to +100 ATK from relics after this update. Celes gets a good USB, too. Two new abilities; first up, an Earth version of the latest Knight holy move, then a thing for Locke (and maybe even Thancred can use it???) 5* Knight Ability, Earth Saber: 5 single-target Earth physical attacks, DEF -30% to user  5* Thief Ability, Soul Burn: 4 single-target Fire physical attacks, higher multiplier with lower % HP  Edgar and Leo get their dives, too! Legend Spheres posted:Edgar LM1: Machinist Damage +15% - Multiplier of all 20+1 hit UOSBs has been buffed from "20 x 0.40 + 1 x 8.00" to "20 x 0.55 + 1 x 8.00". Banner 1 posted:Locke's Orichalcum [UOSB, +10 ATK] - 20 single-target Fire ranged physical attacks & single-target Fire Overflow ranged physical attack Banner 2 posted:Leo's Defender [USSB, +10 ATK] - 10 single-target Earth/Holy physical attacks, ATK & DEF +30% to party, Knight Damage +30% & Swordplay Endowment to user No Poison chain, but Edgar hasn't completely abandoned the element. Becoming a Machinist version of Bartz, though- will this mean Fire and Lightning BSBs to come? Also, some big news (for JP right now, but to keep in mind for Global as well): BIG NEWS posted:Maintenance on 21st December, 0200-0600hrs JST.

They're keeping some existing CM; the ones tied to the Torments, for instance, are explicitly mentioned (the "re-featured limited" ones). Maybe only until they figure out how to rig them into the new system, but still.
