drat, we weren't even close to getting the ticket for the Ariana FB thing. 250 Lapis and 70 NRG for free is okay though.

Is it worth getting Lightning to 100% evade? Looking at the list I have everything I need, including Dracwell's cape, but 5 of the TM's I need aren't even at 10% so that's a loooooong term project.

Waiting to catch a few more strategies before I clown it up. Haven't used any of the 100 Mog cactaurs yet, in case I decide I need to level some weird unit for it. At least it's only 15nrg as opposed to the 40nrg trials.

For the first time ever I'm tempted not to pull on dailies, and I'm a big proponent of always doing them. Pulled a TT today to go with the 2 Setzers I have. I'd keep pulling in the past, but now that I have 100+ max nrg, as opposed to 70 or whatever back in the day, the lapis refill keeps looking better and better.

You'd think I'd know, playing since launch, but what stat is best for tanks? HP or Def? Some balance of each? 70-30? All in?

Somehow I stumbled into a 3rd Setzer today. Am I better off with my TGC/Olive/friend TGC for chain/finish, or 3 Setzers/Friend Setzer? Or I suppose I could roll my 3 Setzers and a friend Setzer and finish with Olive

Also it's really convenient to have a dedicated arena team so there's no equipment switching.

After a buffing miscalculation, I can safely say that Dana's Lightning is pretty good for soloing the dragon.

She works solo? What did you mess up?

As strategies go, leaving your lvl 100 Minfilia and taking your 4* trash Minfilia instead sucks, but hooray for brute forcing it I guess. Glad I wasn't trying to 4-person it.

Completely forgot Titan came out with the last story update and just stumbled into the fight with him with a Dark Fina friend unit to do wind damage for Laps. Took 9/10 of his health down first turn and figured I'd be set, but he killed everybody but Cecil on his turn. Thought I was sunk as Cecil obviously can't do damage for poo poo, but Olive's Mortar Beacon killed him. For 2* I just opted for 2x TGC and Olive and smoked him.

Overkilled on healing/mitigation with DC Refia/DC Y'sh/DC Cecil/Friend Marie and had my Olive blow him up. Never in doubt. Screw the Esper kill, got the rest.

I'm whiffing hard on this banner (and the free daily). Probably about 25-30 pulls and no banner gold unit. Only 2 golds were Agrias and Gaff. Not bad golds, but it's Gaff #4 and I already have 2 Bracers done and at least Agrias #8 and I made a StQ. Got a 3rd Cecil as a blue of value. Sitting on 190k raid coins hoping to at least pull the gold before I start piling up moogles.

Dang it, this trial is going to take more than 30 seconds of thought. I'm sure I have enough TMs and good units, just didn't put them together right on the first attempt. What's the best damage strategy for the upside down tree looking thing?

For all of you that checked yesterday but not today: Crystal Tower got patched today to have mission rewards, go getcher lapis.

That was an easy 250 lapis, although I forgot how annoying the "maze" was to get through. Looking though the old event pages they should bring Tower of Babel back since I think that's the only event I tapped out of on ELT.

After every 1/2 pull and about 20 tickets I never got the gold mage on the dragon banner, after the 1/2 pulls and 5 tickets on this banner, I have 2 Kings. Funny old game. There are worse golds to miss out on I guess, I just want to get rid of those 20 Moogles.

Anything of note on the new continent yet?

I can pair him with Queen and she can devastate for 30 minutes with him.

Totally botched ELT but still got through because I took a full party. Nice to bust out Xon again to Twist of Fate the boss. Pretty much all the damage I did was from Fiss' Freya.

KDdidit

Grimey Drawer
Yeah, Xon has an ability that steals enemies' buffs and applies them to the party. It's pretty situational, but when it's useful, it's awesome. Every couple of months there are events with currency you can get from stealing, and his steal all ability is perfect for it. It's also situational so you may go weeks without needing it where he just sits around. For that reason he's worth working on, but not an immediate priority.

So I hear the Shark at the end of the gathering is a step up, like how much? If I chain 2 TGC DR's and drop Olive's LB during the chain will that be enough?

I'm happy with my unit management. With TM power creep, I'm smooshing a lot of old ones. Also weeding out copy units of TMs that I want, but not enough to ever run multiples of to speed it up.

Keep throwing tickets at the BF banner and no Tillith. Today was my 4th Rainbow on it. Vargas, Elza, Queen, and Rem. Would trade any of them for her
