So what should a new player roll on if not the discount new player pulls? Anything good up now or coming soon?

I got a da vinci brush, chocobo brush, and wizer rod - guessing these are good then?

And with those being pretty much my only relics, who would be better to focus on, Aeris or Relm?

Can I just safely sell all those trash 1 and 2 star items or should I be keeping them for something? There's a combine option but that doesn't let me do anything with them that I can find.

Darksteel dagger, Giant's axe, Ragnarok - good stuff I hope?

Does the JP stuff mean we'll get it this new year (1st of Jan?) too or is there some kind of delay?

With just 100 mythril I'm planning to pull on the banner with all the Cloud stuff cause that has the most characters I actually know/like. But is it even really possible to catch up without spending real :20bux:? Reading up on the meta elsewhere sounds like I'm already screwed for not having some kind of wall grimoire and shout skill anyway. :(

Probably a dumb question but can you link/backup your account to anything other than facebook? Or is it already tied to my email anyway?

On one hand... that khinari bracelett and two of the same Zack’s burst sword. But also both Tidus’s chain and burst so overall I think I came ahead. :D

So with Tidus water chain... do I just load him (and the rest of the team?) up with the highest star water spells I can craft or...?

Avalerion
Oct 19, 2012

Isn't he getting something even better soon-ish anyway? Saw on reddit a new tier of soul breaks (break damage cap & multi hit) are coming.

Going by this: http://dirge.tv/ffrk/event-list/, I'll want to pull on those anniversary 1 & 4 banners. Approx how much mythtil can I expect to stockpile by march?

Isn’t onion knight’s gimmick that he’s unusably bad till lvl90+ or so? Probably a good future investment though.

Avalerion

Well then since you all convinced me to save for onion dude, that makes my final haul from the fest: Tidus chain & burst, Edge burst, Khimari ultra, Fujin burst, Zack burst and Alpiwhatever burst. And before that from the luckies I got Relm super and ultra, Aeris Burst - Gaffgarion burst - Lion Ultra, Porom burst & Cecil overstrike.

Bummer about no Cloud ubs... :( Tidus is kind of saving it though, he's been tearing stuff up and Edge tends to finish of whatever Tidus doesn't for now.

Am I assuming right that this might be a guaranteed way for someone to grab wall/shout etc?

For getting carried through raids as per the op - when I tried this folks just enter then leave my room. Is some base level required/expected after all, or are there some newbie raids I should look for instead?

Avalerion
Oct 19, 2012

I probably shouldn't even bother with those half off nightmare dungeons without at least a max level party, right?

Avalerion
Oct 19, 2012

Exvius seems worse just because half the cast seem to be original characters - when the big appeal of this kind of game is the nostalgia of getting to use your favorite FF heroes.

First pull gave me two dupes of Refia's record materia with nothing else. :cry: Stubbornly decided to do at least one more and...



I think that paid off at least somewhat. Now to level up this dude.

Speaking of record diving - which of his...subclasses? (knight, warrior etc) should I train on onion? Or is this a thing where I'll get all of them eventually?

Avalerion
Oct 19, 2012

I actually considered farming up mythril to try get another refia relic to go with her materia - but I’m probably better off just saving that at this point. On the hand ok usb means I won’t have to chase Ramza’s shout+ on that tactics banner...

Think I see how people get hooked on this kind of gatcha crap, pulling (especially if you get something cool) is weirdly fun. :D

Does anyone want a review of Sunday's water banner despite it being old stuff?

Not old stuff for me so I'd read it, considering a pull on that to get my Tidus mvp some synergy. :D

These are really useful and fun to read, appreciate the effort. :eng101: This is getting one last pull before starting to save for the anniversary, then.

Nope onion event only gives II. One of the great hunt event bosses (red dragon) gives you a universal III memory lode though.

I got the Yuffie BSB and USB combo. Could have done with some water boost but don't mind, Yuffie's cool and it gives me more stuff to spam while chain is up.

Are the magitice bosses actually timed below the 30/60, or are people trying to "shave off seconds" just for fun/challenge/bragging rights?

Avalerion

Probably won't be crafting this one, but first nightmare boss down. :toot:

Does she need relics for that or just legend diving her?

Avalerion

Might be worth it for the OK materia if you have his USB?

Avalerion
Oct 19, 2012

Also note (as per reddit), there might be another LM pick banner coming with the 3rd aniv, along with an BSB and OBS pick gem only banner.

I’m skipping this one, was eyeing the Tidus lm but below poster makes a good case against that. Could grab Relm or Edge lm but eh... rather save 30e for fest stuff.

Avalerion fucked around with this message at 10:08 on Jan 22, 2018

It's for the LM pick, if you get anything actually good from the pull itself that's just a bonus I'd think.

Avalerion
Oct 19, 2012

Seems like this “power creep” is what allows new or lapsed players to cach up and participate though, so it’s not all bad.

Avalerion
Oct 19, 2012

Tidus lmr aside (which seems to come back on at least three future banners anyway), folks on reddit are really hipping Edge’s ssb - is it really that essential to have for high end content?

Avalerion

One more down. :toot:

Tried to take on neo bahamut next but that didn't go well at all... attacks barely scratch him, do I need to take magic against him?

It's not terrible past 95, that's his gimmick. Until then just use growth eggs.
