I was so jealous when I looked at your Elza's scythes, Kalas. Though that reminds me, is there a particular reason why you have her equipped with NO Esper? Not even Ifrit?

The FFT exploration event was such an amazing boon for Esper leveling that I feel really bad for anyone who started after it and/or wish a future exploration event has similarly good returns.

They haven't announced Gilgamesh, so they might have wanted to just put up an announcement for all of the Awakenings separately from the actual FFV banner itself. It would be a bit weird if it wasn't an FFV banner coming, since we'd have all of the FFV awakenings and then some other random banner?

PaybackJack posted:The last character on the banner is Mercedes who is a physical attacker that uses Axes. I guess if you're hurting for Physical attackers she's not that bad. Looks like she has a decently high base attack and some built in attack bonuses along with Barrage and a 50% attack buff that hits the whole party for 3 turns. Base 4* but can go to 6* right away. I want Mercedes because of her future Enhancements (and she's not a half bad physical attacker right now). Warcry turns into an AOE +100% ATK & 100% ATK Debuff Resistance for 3 turns; her Axe Mastery passive turns into +100% ATK, and Axe of the Sea Gods gets a great boost particularly if you're wielding a water element Axe (ie- her TM).

I'm just happy that with 6* Exdeath coming out, I can move Dualcast off Exdeath and onto Refia where it belongs. And to figure out where I'm going to fit Bartz into my team, maybe.

Reminder: 6* Bartz's level 100 skill is a trap. Hybrid sucks so much, it's honestly depressing. You will never be able to build Hybrid strong enough such that Cyclone Slash does significantly more damage than Gale Barrage, compared to the investment you could have made going straight ATK instead and just crush people with Gale Barrage.

I think you mixed up Cyclone Slash and Gale Barrage in there, but yea, I mathed it out a while back when Letters & Arms came out. You can make Cyclone Slash higher damage than Gale Barrage, but only by about ~15% with some absurd gear combinations. Instead, you could simply build ATK and quickly have a much better Gale Barrage.

HGH posted:So there's this... Robot trial(?) in JP right now and I cannot comprehend the nature of that fight. It seems beyond absurd. You mean the 10 million hp robot, with 4 million hp arms, where if you kill the Right Arm twice it explodes and wipes you, but if you don't kill the Right Arm it heals the main Body in 500k hp increments. Oh and the Left Arm single targets your highest ATK character with a 1000% physical hit repeatedly throughout the fight. Good times, good times.

Chen Kenichi posted:Is she the one who was casting auto-res to full everything on almost every turn? Tilith was the one in the top right either Full Raising individual people or Party Full Raising when he lost 2-3 people. Rikku's the one bottom left using her Limit Break every other turn to put up a party Auto-Revive. She has other awesome abilities, but she kind of had to put up a party Auto-Revive every time it was available.

The Auto-Revive from Rikku is to 80% hp. Shouldn't have been mana restore, but he uses Ramza in that fight to constantly sing, which turns him into a party mana battery. He probably would have wiped if the boss managed to kill Rikku twice. Then he wouldn't have an auto-revive available which might have allowed it to kill too many characters on the following turn when the shields were down.

Hopefully I don't get banned for it but uh, I can't really see someone unlocking Maxwell without that happening unless they have an absolutely perfect team. Well-rounded (ie- tanky and with a solid Healer) or Dualcast. You can bury Maxwell under Curajas/ability to raise two people per turn and still Curaja. Dualcast Refia was honestly my single most important unit in the fight, above and beyond my attackers or tanks.

Once Excalibur #2 finishes, I'm going to have to sit down and figure out whether to keep Dual-Wield on Elza, or move it over to Bartz. Stupid Elza and her weapon equipment restrictions. I think dual-Excalibur on Bartz is going to out damage dual-spear Elza.

deathbagel posted:Yea, only having one dual wield is a pain for me too. I think I might build up Buttz and slap it on him, then just put all 4 Spooky Aura's on Dracu Lasswell with my Excalibur and put the rest of the big damage stuff on Buttz (dual wield, blade mastery, Shakirabufuki, Gungnir) then start grinding double hand for CoD. Hmm, on second running of the numbers, looks like Elza still pulls ahead. Buttz, however, seems to be able to just break 500 ATK with Doublehand on himself and an Excalibur which is much better than I figured it would end up. So I might go that route with him instead.

deathbagel posted:Once Garland gets his 6* increase, he's going to become my Doublehand beast. One of you math wiz guys tell me what he'd be at with Doublehand, Excalibur, 2x Bracer, Dark Helm, 10% atk x2 (Recipe should be out by then,) Barrage and a Power of Creation. Has to be over 700 at least right? Without Dual Wield. Couple things: Your materia on 6* Garland would want to include a Doublehand. Doublehand (materia) stacks with Doublehand (unit passive). It just doesn't stack with itself on GL for some reason, so you can't run 4 copies of the materia. I'm also not sure you need Barrage. 6* Garland gets a 140% AoE 1 Hit Physical Attack + Ignore 50% DEF & AoE 3 Turn -50% Dark Resist attack, which is 280% normalized the first hit, and then at least 25% more damage on subsequent hits if you add Dark element to his attacks (which he has an ability for). But yes, your setup with Barrage and a Doublehand materia inplace of one of the 10% ATK works out to 705 ATK with a maxed Ifrit. Edit: And when Enhancements come out for him, he gains +50% more on his Doublehand passive which gives you +97 ATK more, so you could break 800 then. And his attack I mentioned goes up to 180% and -75% Dark Resist which means you really don't need Barrage at that point, so you can stuff more ATK materia on him.

Seems like from his description, SQEX has a lot more direct input on Global.

Holy explosion is a 200% 7 hit ignore 50% DEF and add a - 50% light res debuff that is comically easy to chain with (primarly itself by using an Orlandu friend leader). And you're also immediately taking advantage of that light vulnerability because if you equip anything but Excalibur on him (since he has Greatsword mastery), your game uninstalls itself out of shame.

One thing to keep in mind: Antonella's parts have overlapping resistances. So anyone or any friend leaders with base elemental weapons is going to be in for a rough time. The only thing it's either completely not-resistant to or vulnerable to is Earth damage or Light/Dark.

Mindflayers can and will AOE paralyze your entire party if you let them. They are jerks. Thankfully Refia's limit burst is amazing, but man, I was on auto-pilot not thinking through these story missions just to quickly clear them and suddenly everyone not named Refia was greyed out.
