HGH posted:
They were saying that the EX ticket isn't the same as a regular ticket in that it doesn't account for the banner, so I think that's the only difference. It's possible that they make units like that but it really goes against the gacha factor to make a unit that you have to get with straight up cash. It sound weird but I think they realized that was a bad idea in global because it really screams money grab, particularly when it's behind $500~. The other mobile game I was playing, Marvel Heroes had units that were paywalled but to get them you had to kick the company $10 or so each.

Looks like we're going to need some macro updates, they added some dialogue boxes if the game crashes during a fight that allow you to resume the fight where you left off or forget that info and, presumably, start at the home screen. Macro I'm using gets stuck on this dialogue and just idles. Also I certainly wouldn't mind paying some lapis to double my exploration slots.

Winged Orpheus posted:How important is rerolling? I just started so I won't really be losing anything but it kinda looks like a pain in the dick to actually do Serenity now; insanity later. By rerolling you can essentially choose to start the game with any character you want that's currently in the pool. Namely one of the best, most future proofed characters, that's going to make life really easy and allow you to take on the hardest content with significantly less challenge, or even at all. Some people straight up can't do certain content because they don't have good enough characters. Of course you don't have to, but you're missing a huge opportunity by not doing it. CAPT.

I'm writing a new OP for the anniversary and the new player section is a giant wall of text telling you to reroll.

Winged Orpheus posted:So if I reroll with nox and get a good start, how do I transfer that to my phone? If you already linked your current game to your Facebook account then you'll need to make a fake Facebook account and link it to that. From then on you'll login by using that FB account.

Follow the guide here. but the basic idea is that you make a fake FB account so that you can just log in/out, which will reset the data, without having to flash the emulator/your phone. edit: You can find some tutorials on youtube as well.

fullTimeLurker posted:So throughout this banner and the last, I've pulled 6 Camille's from my 1/2 daily pulls. Is there any reason to have more than 2 of her TM? Especially since I have 3 Abel's as well? Well you can grind out 2 copies of her TM and use then together which is nice. I personally just grinding 1 copy and also have 3 Abel that I don't look forward to grinding individually.

Winged Orpheus posted:So Tilith and one of those? Are those also in the brave frontier banner or do I have to roll a different banner to try and get one? Aileen, Fryevia, Olive, and Orlandeau. DPS trumps every other category. If you can wait until the 29th, presumably new players will be able to take advantage of the free 10-1 ticket and that should make rerolling a lot easier, and you'll be able to add Tidus to the list of units to roll for.

Dana Crysalis posted:Of note, however, you permanently lose the ability to roll Tilith, soooo. If you plan to roll hard on the Tidus banner unit you got him and Rikku, I'd say 'Sure, take Tilith and Ramza.' Unfortunately, you'll feel the pinch of not having DPS a lot more than you will not having the best healer or the 1st/2nd best support character. There are plenty of trials and events that you'll be able to blow right through with a DPS chainer and clone friend unit, and as an Olive user I can tell you that she's carried me through almost the entire story, and numerous ELT events.

Khisanth Magus posted:To this point I don't think I've passed a single expedition that didn't have at least 90% chance of success, and I've even failed most 90% ones. Beginning to think the numbers may be off on those... I mistakenly wandered into a reddit thread about this looking for the last exploration map and apparently people are failing them at 100%. So either that's a bug or there is a background calculation that might cause you to fail regardless of your percentage. Also someone posted this, which was too good not to steal. Thread title "what Expeditions were missing".

Winged Orpheus posted:I decided to keep it if only because I was getting super bored of rerolling and didn't want to burn out on the game before I even started really playing it. I sent a bunch of friend requests to people on the Google doc. Are friend points still the gift of choice or is something else the new hotness? Friend points are what you get from others. They're a good choice for a new player in order to get some of the easy friend point summons. Also yes, this banner is garbage. Finally, I highly suggest you don't drop any money for a week and reroll some more next week. Tilith is not good enough to take over a good DPS unit. SereneCrimson posted:My half price pull today was a Golbez and a 5% to all Moogle. I think that was very worth it. My 1/2 price today was Kain who I've TM'ed 5 times and my moogle was for Garland who I finished the TM for yesterday. Thanks Gumi!

Ability Enhancement/Awakening preview/speculation: First five batches of JP Enhancements, units that have been crossed out have been enhanced in Global, bolded units have not been Enhanced in Global yet: Cecil, Dark Knight Cecil, Eileen, There doesn't seem to be a set amount of units that are chosen each batch(GL: 10,11,7). There is at least 1 base 5* unit, 2 seems typical, though obviously global diverted from this by withholding Ramza from the first batch. There is at least 1 unit each batch that uses one of the different types of crysts? Confirm/Deny? Agrias was awakened and then ehanced a roughly month and a week Tidus was released; pushing her Global awakening and enhancement into August. Based on looking at the upcoming list, the next batch should include some combination of: Cecil, Garland, Dark Knight Cecil, Refia, Gilgamesh, Sakura, Charlotte, Exdeath, Hayate, Leon, Luneth, Marie, Nine, Soleil, Eileen, Fina, Fencer, Juggler, Popoi, Primm, Randi, Luka, Shine, Thief, and Ramza. Analysis: Cecil (3*) - Thumbs up. He's a common unit, there are many better tank choices out there and while Cecil is still very good he's not top of the pile anymore and his enhancements won't change his station too much. Garland (3*) - Thumbs in the middle. We haven't gotten his 6* yet, presumably we'll get it with Warrior of Light, but if we don't then he won't make the list here. Dark Knight Cecil (5*) - Thumbs up. Surpirsed he hasn't been already, doesn't seem to be any good reason for him not to be. Maybe they wanted to save his enhancements for after the Maxwell trial so he wouldn't own it? I have no idea, this one doesn't make any sense. Refia (4*) - Thumbs up. I suspect they were waiting for Tilith to come before making Refia better, even though her enhancements aren't game breaking. Popoi/Primm/Randi (3*, 4*, 5*) - Thumbs in the middle. These guys are probably being enhanced as a group and I don't see them all on this next banner, unless they bump Gilgamesh to the next one. Possible but who knows. Fencer/Juggler/Thief (all 4*) - Thumbs in the middle. That's an awfully large amount of 4* slots to waste on a bunch of time exclusive units that a large portion of the player base probably doesn't have. Sakura (Story Unit) - Thumbs up. The last story unit that hasn't seen enhancement, almost a no-brainer except she's actually a useful character with a strong enhancement. Charlotte (3*) - Thumbs down. Charlotte was enhanced along with her 6* awakening. I don't see them pairing these two together that early in Global. ExDeath (3*) - Thumbs up. With Swimsuit D.Fina we have another strong caster, and since casters aren't anything to write home about anyway, I don't see it being a problem that he gets boosted. Hayate (3*) - Thumbs down. See Charlotte. Leon (4*) - Thumbs up. There's a lot of enhancements to characters that will never be anything, this is one of them. Just filler so why not. Luneth (5*) - Thumbs in the middle. Luneth would be a strong candidate if there weren't two other base 5*s ahead of him. He could skip the line but I don't see why he would. Marie (5*) - Thumbs in the middle. Same reasoning as Luneth. Nine (4*) - Thumbs up. Another unit whose enhancements don't change the meta or make the character suddenly worth using so why not? Soleil (4*) - Thumbs up. See Nine and Leon. Aileen (5*) - Thumbs down. She's probably going to be held off a bit longer given her release was still fairly recent. Luka (4*) - Thumbs up. Entirely possible we'll see her and Refia both on the enhancement list, to make people that didn't roll Tilith a bit happier. Shine (4*) - Thumbs up. Same reasons as Nine, Leon and Soleil. Ramza (5*) - Thumbs down. Pretty clear we're not seeing his guy get his moment in the sun until after Roy comes around. I guess they want people to roll for Roy if they have Ramza and not wait for upgrades? Whatever their reasoning, if we haven't seen him yet, we won't see him next go around either. Based on that analysis my guess for the next wave of enhancements is: Dark Knight Cecil, Gilgamesh, Luka, Leon, Nine, Shine, Soleil, Cecil, ExDeath and Sakura. * Elza has also been enhanced and is Global Exclusive. Not going to speculate on what other GE unit will be enhanced because who the heck knows. PaybackJack fucked around with this message at 19:08 on Jun 25, 2017 |

Trojan Kaiju posted:Shoot, absolutely should have noticed that. I kept looking at the announcements instead. Thank you both! Have you thrown any money at the game? If not you might want to consider rerolling if you aren't seriously invested in your current account. I see you have her at max level and all but her enhancements are a ways out, at least a month and a half, and with the free 10+1 roll next week you could definitely reroll until you got two 5*s which would carry you a lot further. What are your other 6* capable characters? Did you get a Refia? Astrochicken posted:Soz, didn't realize there was also a request capacity. Clearing it up now. Same goes for you. If you didn't roll a 5* character right off the bat, go read the section in the OP about rerolling, make a fake facebook account if you have to. Seriously, start with a leg up in this game. RNG will own you soon enough later on.

Dana Crysalis posted:It's a shame that those aren't actually worth doing. Those are always 24h, have a miserable success rate. Alternatively you could do 2 12h energy bottle ones, get 20 energy, and TM macro yourself 0.2% on people, and get more relics and a higher success rate. They really needed to increase the payout on the relics that's for certain. Just scaling them so evenly based on time and difficulty is dumb.

CyberLord XP posted:Got 155 relics this week with 2 days left. Can't really hate on the expedition system when I get a day and a half to run whatever 20% silly poo poo while still getting the weekly 5% moogle. I have no idea how you managed that. Expeditions on average seem to take at least 8 hours and the gently caress if I'm paying for rerolls. I'm at like 110 and failed 3 expeditions. I haven't been doing them too judiciously but these longer expeditions suck. Apparently you can start them, a new one will spawn, then you can cancel the one you sent. It still costs you the money and item, but apparently that's a way to see a few extra ones. If you cancel it just goes back into your the pool so you'll still have to do it, maybe. I suppose I can't complain that much because it wasn't terribly hard to get to 120 relics, so an extra 100 Lapis and a Summon ticket every week for free is pretty nice. I saw the Enchanted Maze is up with the new level, gave it a run. First room: Giant Metal Cactuar, materials: holy crystal, fury stone. Go into a door. Room exit into the same room. Hmm, that's strange. Go into another door: end of maze and 1 more GMC. Thanks Gumi.

hagie posted:Ok, I want to understand the hub-bub of 6* Warrior of Light. Everyone has been gushing about him for months to get 6*, and I legitimately don't know what makes him great. I get he has Full Break. For me it's all about the 100% provoke on a unit that naitvely has good defense, HP, SPR, and can wear heavy armor and use heavy shields. In this regard he completely replaces Snow. His provoke gets enhanced later to have a durations of 2 then 3 turns so while I hate that it's just 1 turn now, it's still great. Full break is nice but when I need a break I've tended to want it to be the best possible break not just 30% so I'm less excited about that.

Reminder to everyone not to whale for Tidus and instead wait for Dark Veritas. [/sarcasm]Khisanth Magus posted:Looking at the 5* units available to pull tomorrow, looks like there are about 11 out of 23 that are generally considered great pulls: Gilgamesh should be on the great pulls list. His TM is not going to be beat since the whale unit didn't come out and he's on the short list for enhancements which will give him a damage increase and very good chaining ability.
