If you use a friend, you have to wait like 3 or 4 hours before they'll pop up again I'm pretty sure, plus yeah it's a little random

i have used them more frequently than that, i think they pop back up on your list when they log in again?

Thread is dead tonight, it's almost like this event is rear end and the banner is rear end. Usually we get at least 2-3 Bediled and Shadowned posts, but nobody is pulling from this garbage.

i was just thinking how much everyone must be enjoying the game right now what with the 20 odd posts a day now

4* Gaffgarion from the daily, which is fine, I guess?

i got my third agrias from daily. there's definitely worse 4* to get, but i was hoping for snow for the tm and maybe getting some event poo poo.

Gigantuars definitely drop bonus gears, I got ~1200 in a single ELT run with a gigantuar, a sazh, and a friend lightning. I also managed to have two runs with gigantuars out of the ~10 runs that I did today, but I figure that's just cluster luck and not a rate change.

e: also lmao my pulls, 1/2 price + 7 tickets: penelo, fang, fang, lenna, fang, fang, sazh, faris

I uh... I think they want me to use fang

yeah, not only is embolden unbelievably better than cheer, i mean my dualcast refia has 4k+ health and can heal roughly 3k per turn, plus she has esuna. refia is incomparably better than lenna just from the fact that she has double the health pool, but embolden is no joke either

Chains get their damage bonus which lets them go over the cap. My 7 meteor chain ends up doing 1598 damage on the last hit due to the 60% damage bonus, for example.

chains are actually why i rarely use meteor, its so much harder to chain than it is to throw out a kefka/exdeath/tellah/lmao cod??/cecil team of just tossing thunder around and finishing a fight in about a half a second

Me. I'm the one with no Zidane. :saddowns:

if i got a zidane i doubt i would feel nearly as bad about never drawing one of the base 5*s, since a dual wield firion would be totally awesome.

as for the dualcast refia thing, that's no joke especially considering she's immune to so many status effects due to one of her passives. in fact due to her being immune to petrify that dual wield golem staff bullshit doesn't even matter. im fairly certain a refia/buttz/cecil arena team is actually meaningfully unkillable when you control your team? provided you have access to your spells that is

i dont have anything super exciting at the moment but i cleared out some friend list slots so if you want a 4k health dualcast refia bud at the moment: 180,869,786

i am working on my chiz and she will hopefully have some decent attack when i can finish off her tm, or eventually i'll have a wicked agrias i guess? give me a zidane you stupid game

edit: ^ without knowing what units you have or what tms you already have unlocked it's hard to say, but i think i would rather have bracer than save the queen, but i would definitely go for it second

i dont know about white knight noel but dualcast is ALSO really good on cecil. i think having multiple dualcasts is theoretically good because the amount of units that come out but do not have dualcast is probably going to be larger than zero. how many units will come out like refia that have really good kits but not dualcast? hard to say, but i am willing to bet it also wont be zero.

Even worse, the fastest way to max Cecil's LB is to start with a 3 star Cecil and max his LB before you awaken him. Otherwise it takes a million more pots.

well it still takes a million pots because his 6* lb max level is like 15. but it was way easier to get 7 levels on him as a 3*. i still dump some pots in to 6* cecil and i think i've gotten him like one and a half levels because the amount of exp it takes now is absurd
