Prism posted:Bugged how? Just curious; that was before my time. If I'm thinking of the right battle, his AI was supposed to set all his actual attacks other then the basic Attack to only start his the third turn, but they missed his AoE Monk Kick, meaning he had a 90% or so chance to use it, decimating teams before buffs could go up. I used Mako Might on Ramza's Tailwind (40% HP + Protectga) just to survive the opening.

I just realized tomorrow I can grab that second Gigas Armlet I missed with the FFII Renewal Dungeons . Liking the opportunity to grab all these old accessories, and triple resist is a particularly good one. I'm hoping they'll rerelease the 5 Dooms event too. I fully cleared it but I know a lot of people didn't - and all those job motes would be really nice for people to get. Also I heard the Brass de Bravo events might be coming? Now that I have a relic for every Bard but Gogo V, I want more motes. The buffing bard songs will be great for Magicite too - Sarah, Deuce and Edward will love to have them.

Dollar draw got me Prompto's SSB - first XV relic! Lightning element hyperbreak is pretty nice, but I already have a lightning element Hyper Break with Shelke BSB so I don't think I'll be using it much at all outside of XV. I was considering a pull on XV for Noctis SSB and Iris BSB, but since I have a pretty great Lightning team already I might just go for the XV Renewal banner to swap Aranea and Prompto's stuff for Iris LMR and Gladio's stuff. Gonna wait a while to decide, or maybe I'll just skip it entirely for the eventual Ignis event.

Ugh, now I'm tempted by the gem draw and need to pick again for the CT draw between Yuna for the MAG buff and holy+ armor, Larsa for Astra and Entrusting and Y'shtola for the CMs and Legend Dive. Not even sure what I would want from the gem draw. Firion, Alphinaud or Edea maybe? I have Vaan, Raines and OK, just two guaranteed BSBs makes it really attractive. I'm waiting for this good Friday the 13th news to backfire somehow...

Philouza posted:Any decent BSBs on the gem selection suitable for entrusters or quick-cast/noncast? I feel like I'm at a good place with elements and can safely sub 1:00 all the magicites so I'm working towards 30 seconds. Shelke wouldn't need a relic for Entrusting, you'll never be using her SB anyways. She's 100% the best Entruster. The only other option that comes to mind if you can't wait is Sazh, since his Burst is Party ATK/MAG +30% and self Instant Cast 2, so he can get set up for Entrusting quicker or pop off Ellara's Wall quickly - but you'll need to bring a Hastega. Edward is also specifically nice for a physical Shadow Dragon team for the Imperil Holy and ATK +50% buff. But honestly, I'd just wait for Shelke's dive.

Electric Phantasm posted:I would've thought Seymour would be up there. Also lol at Angeal does he seriously only have a SSB? Seymour suddenly got a lot of attention in Japan's Superfest 2, getting the magical dark limit chain, a new BSB they actually tried to make relevant with a unique self-regen that stacks with regen and a 6-hit command that deals good damage and self-inflicts 35% HP damage, and an En-dark LMR. Next X event in Japan is supposed to be Tidus and Seymour based too, so he's probably got a USB on the way. And yes, Angeal is still SSB only. Fusoya has an SSB and SB and isn't too much better. The hope was the next VII event would be Crisis Core themed, but Zack got a new USB in the 3rd Anniversary banners so Angeal will probably be waiting even longer. And speaking of hated characters, if you're curious on who doesn't have Legend Sphere access in Japan: Quina, Freya and Dorgaan just got their dives. Larsa and Reks should be coming soon, and every II character but Leila should get access in the next II event. Every one in III, X, XIV and XV ha access, if you're wondering why those realms are missing. Some surprising people left over. Gilgamesh, Edgar, Quistis and Fang are the most surprising characters not to have a Legend Sphere access yet. I thought they were all fairly popular, outside of FFRK at least. pichupal fucked around with this message at 00:31 on Oct 14, 2017 |

Boogaloo Shrimp posted:It's weird that Rude and Elena don't have a dive either, since they were introduced after dives. Most new characters have them when released. When the VII event happened, not even Aerith and Sephiroth had legend dives yet so they didn't really have space for Rude and Elena. The event gave access to Sephiroth, Aerith and Rufus on Banner 1, and Cid, Reno and Shelke on Banner 2. A side effect of VII having way too many characters. IV has a similar problem, but they still gave Ursula access over Yang. pichupal fucked around with this message at 01:02 on Oct 14, 2017 |

Grizzled Patriarch posted:Yeah this game needs more bards badly, Allegro Con Moto looks cool but the only characters I could possibly run it on are Tyro and I guess Cait Sith since I have his BSB. I've got relics for every Bard 5 but Gogo (V) right now. It really is a small pool, just 7 Bards, + Aria and Garnet. Eiko can't Allegro since she dives for Bard 5, but she can use the buff bard songs if we get them. I'm honestly surprised they haven't given it to Echo or Mog considering their appearance in every Brass de Bravo event in Japan. I think the Dancer is pretty small too? Tyro, Echo, Mog, Cait, Freya (eventualy), Rikku, Penelo and Montblanc, plus Faris and Iris who can dive for it.

And you might already have a 6* MND weapon that's a lot more flexible then a bow too. It's just for healers and stop infliction/time reduction.

Might take a while to search through, but sure. Very subjective opinions below, and I might like stat sticks a bit too much.

Stopgap posted:Are LMRs actually included in these renewal draws? The logos say they are, but Cecil's should be in the FFIV banner, as it was in the same original banner as Rosa USB and Kain OSB, and I do't see it in the list. My heart won't be broken or anything if they aren't, but I was planning a pull on XIII for LMRs for Raines and Vanille, both of whom I have legend dived and are only missing those relics, and if those aren't on the table it might change my plans for pulls. I guess we'll see tomorrow if Celes's LMR shows up. Yeah, LMR should be included, it's more bad luck that FF1-3 don't actually have any LMR yet, and 4 and 5 got theirs after the XV event. You just have some of the dates mixed up. Rosa USB is on there because it debuted in the Summer Fest. Cecil's USB and LMR debuted with the Edge/Rubicante event after the Gladio/Iris event. ceaselessfuture posted:I'd add Deuce USB, LMR, and Gladio SSB to that list too. Gladio SSB is great if you have someone else in the party giving haste. I didn't include Deuce USB just because it's only healing. The instant Y'shtola BSB entry is nice, but the Raise proc isn't very useful and a lot of other White Mage USBs offer more. Her LMR for buff duration is really just for her BSB until we know for sure if we get the new bard songs, so I didn't want to include it. Gladio's SSB is pretty nice too if you can fit a Hastega, but I tried to limit myself in putting too many relics. It feels like Last Stand relics are a bit more common recently too? I did try to limit myself to the top picks, but XV and Type-0 just have a higher overall quality then the other banners for their SSBs.

They could be thinking of Ramza's Enholy & Shout BSB too. Either way, we've got at least 3 direct Shout upgrades out there with Quina USB, OK's Ninja USB and Ramza BSB2. Maybe Y'shtola will get a Wall USB2 to make us forget about her first one. Speaking of Wall availability, there was also a gem-banner in Japan where you could pick an SSB or LMR, but Y'shtola and Tyro have their Wall relics available instead of an SSB.

Yeah. Since my most wanted relics are Noctis SSB + LMR and Iris BSB + LMR, I'm gonna do a pull on the XV renewal. I was planning on just waiting for the eventual Ignis event, but SSBs no longer show up on banners in Japan, excluding for when new characters are released. Makes it worth one shot, especially with the extra Mythril I'm grabbing from the Renewal Dungeons. Only XV relic is the Prompto SSB I got from the dollar draw so no dupes, either. I also have a much stronger Lightning team then Earth so Gladio is a decent trade to Prompto and Aranea.

Bard Banner isn't that bad, they stuck Onion BSB on it. No LMR which is an odd choice. Oddly enough, it makes the banner a no pull for me with too many dupes, but it's honestly pretty nice. Edward USB - MAG, RES & MND +30% for 25s, Haste & Magical Quick Cast 2 Mog USB - ATK, MAG, & MND +30% for 25s, Quick Cast 3 Kefka BSB2 - 8 Random Target Dark/Bio Attacks, Attach Dark and Burst Mode
Cait Sith BSB Edward BSB Kefka BSB1 Onion BSB Cait Sith SSB2 - 8 ST White Non-Elemental Attacks, Party Crit +50% Mog SSB Edward SSB The easiest way to think of Kefka's BSB2 is like a magical Squall BSB2, but with a MAG debuff attached.

They datamined another BRA BRA banner that features Mog and Deuce's USB, so they could be staggering the new relics to one of the other BRABRA events? Echo BSB could be on the way along with Edward and Mog's LMRs. I feel like the only reason Mog BSB isn't on there is because it's a rod, and not an instrument or armor.

We're apparently getting BRABRA part 2 tomorrow. Echo's BSB1 finally makes an appearance from the skipped Mobius event, Mog's LMR from JPs... 3rd? BRABRA event, and the surprising inclusion of Tyro's LMR from the skipped (or upcoming?) Superfest. Relics: Mog USB Deuce USB Faris USB2 (The debuff + Wind Imperil) Echo BSB1 - 40% HP Medica, Party MAG/RES +30%
Deuce BSB Krile BSB Tyro LMR - Start with Instant Cast 2 Mog LMR - Stat Buff duration +30% Deuce LMR Faris SSB Echo SSB1 (the Hastega) I'd personally say this banner isn't that great, especially falling pretty close to things like FFTA.

Scott's RM3 is [Reraise and DEF +20%] which can be useful in some weird setups. Montblanc's RM2 is [Start with Haste and MAG +10%], which I believe is the first Haste RM that increases MAG compared to all the ATK ones we have Rem's RM3 is [WHT damage +30%], which might actually be relevant if they keep giving white mages more offensive options. Using the existing weakness or holy damage RMs will be fine, unless they introduce Aero and make it White Magic. No other big standouts. I think Kelger gets a clone of Noctis's RM3 for Auto-battling, Marcus gets a dupe of Zack's Haste and ATK/DEF +10%, Cinque is obviously getting the Heavy damage up RM, and Marche gets another Sentinel RM like Curilla, not that you'll even be using them at the same time. The Cores do get some occasionally useful Attack replacing RMs like Magus's AoE Fire/Ice/Lightning damage, Ninja's (slightly weaker) Fire Veil and Spellblade's half-strength Quake Strike.
