Gamechanging seems a bit much, but he gains passive SPR which is always nice, his sub-30% DEF boost gets bumped to 150% from 100% and also includes SPR now (which is fantastic), and not having to recast his 100% taunt every turn allows him to do other things which is some nice quality of life (ie- You can taunt and then guard which WoL previously was unable to do).

My tickets are being saved for CG Fina, and my lapis is being saved for Sephiroth & Lila's stepup banner since I'm closing in on 50k anyway and I might as well guarantee 7* Sephiroth/Lila or one of each of them.

dangerous.hotdog posted:You might as well wait for Hyou who blows pretty much every DD out of the water. I don't think it was too big of a gap between Sephiroth and Hyou (1 month?). I don't see many folks using Lila much anymore since she has like 3k HP with a SPR-focus build compared to 7*s who have like 16k HP. Apparently she's not so great in any fight that isn't a OTKO because she gets dunked on. I'm waiting for a step-up banner, and there's no Step-up banner as good as Sephiroth/Lila, with units as good as them and with incentives as decent as their Step-up. CG Hyou's Step-up is a modified single lap 11,000 lapis with no guaranteed anything in it. I could very well just save 11,000 lapis for his banner, that's a possibility sure. Squall/Rinoa have one, but it's neither as good (it has the guaranteed Squall/Rinoa and Rainbow at the 3rd stage, but no rate-ups), nor are Squall/Rinoa as enticing units to me as either Sephiroth or Lila. I'd take Seph's to chain with 7* Dark Veritas. Edit: There's CG Raegan's too, but his stepup is like CG Hyou's, an 11,000 modified pull one.

Thank you to whomever it is that has been keeping up their Glacial-setup Garnet on Ifrit as their friend unit. Finally got around to knocking that thing down, and it saved me the hassle of trying to find friendoldmans setup correctly, as I could now just bring both of my own and have Garnet as the friend unit.

Tengames posted:I actually think we might get them sooner then jp got them because we know precisely when jp got them banner wise and even if sepiroth and the unit he shares banners with is op as poo poo, theres going to be a return of "why should I pull for these when It would allow them to space out the batches of 7*s more easily too, rather than big clumps at once for catch-up purposes. Of course, the game kind of still needs content that challenges 7* unit havers, even if it's just another tougher stage of trials (this would seem to be the most equitable way of doing things). JP has what, Odin 3*'s fight that was just released which seems to be one of the few challenging fights even for 7*s? The rest, you bring 7*s and roll right over everything.

I'm really happy 7* Lightning is good, since I was so sad she was otherwise terrible Legitimately more excited I have her 7* version than Orlandeau's 7* who's also sitting in the wings. His kit upgrade just doesn't seem as exciting, which might just be relative differences at work since Lightning goes from literally horrible to actually good, while Orlandeau already starts off at great. Plus 7* Lightning can chain with my Tidus.

Depends. Do you need a provoke tank or a cover tank or a counter tank? Do you need a tank with utility, or a tank with breaks, or a tank that doubles as a healer, or a magic tank? They're very fight specific, but WoL is I think the one that is the most swiss-army knife in that he can fulfill a number of different tanking roles.

PaybackJack posted:As someone pointed out it's great on Wilhelm as well as it basically trades being hit with blind for 10% hp compared to Discernment/Goddess Protection. Also good on Ramza who comes with 50% resistance to ailments natively. You know, when Ramza enhancements show up and you start using Ramza.

hagie posted:Regardless of the amount of resets, I fundamentally cannot do the ice bird. Doesn’t matter my set up or weaponry. I was resetting until an AoE Full Raise unit survived (either Tilith or Rikku) and of course both DPS (pair of Orlandeaus). Mystea and Garnet were both expendable in the preemptive. At that point it's just ensuring your ATK is high enough and/or enough killers so that Ice Bird gets one-shot. It does require some funky gearing setup of all available ice and wind resistance (incidentally, that Snowstorm shield from last winter's (?) even is tailor made having both 30% ice/wind) to the pertinent characters.

rabidsquid posted:evoking an esper is easy, all you have to do is use Marie to keep a Garnet with Prodigy's Goggles alive This was actually going to be my plan whenever I bothered. hosed up and got him to 1% earlier, was ready for the multiple thresholds to hurt, and then...he did no damage through Marie's shields. I may have greatly overestimated his damage potential.

HGH posted:We've been in a bit of downward spiral since Christmas, but FF9 and 10 are soon and should legitimately have some ok things worth pulling (and actual fan favorite characters). I still need to budget how many tickets I'm throwing at Yuna and how many I realistically want to be saving for CG Fina. CG Fina's easily the better healer, but Yuna is Yuna and I will collect all FFX units.

Cao Ni Ma posted:I already covered just about everything he mentioned in my previous post and I think the only actual point he has is that rolling for 7*s as they come out is poo poo because that odd on banner rainbow pull you get from a daily is devalued. But guess what, that means not spending money on those banners is good. Subsist on old 5*s 7*s erry day dont give gumi more money I do agree with his comment about how step-ups seem to have shifted from the Seph/Lila & Rinoa/Squall step-ups, to the CG Raegan 11k versions which don't seem nearly as valuable. But that also has nothing to do with the 7* system, and is a step-up banner design complaint.

PaybackJack posted:Unfortunately she's not. Her most damaging ability is hybrid damage and in order to get the most out of her she needs to be using a sword and a great sword but doesn't have innate dual wield. Her abilities don't have any synergy either, she can make an enemy weak to light but doesn't have an innate light attack, but does have a lightning attack. She has some white magic but not enough to make her worth a support slot. So basically she's worse than Orlandeau+ when it comes to damage and her healing isn't strong/broad enough to make her a 2nd support character. She's a better base Orlandeau, ignoring enhancements (because she doesn't have any yet). Her version of holy explosion (which I don't believe chains with regular holy explosion since it's 8 hit, not 7?), is slightly stronger (425% versus 400%), and if you do equip her with a sword and Excalibur starts off with +100% ATK from passives compared to +70% for Orlandeau. Her break is opposite to Orlandeau, DEF/SPR instead of ATK/MAG, is -45% instead of 40% and is AOE instead of single target. She comes with much better base resistances (Paralyze/Confuse/Petrify immunity), and actually has a support suite (single target full Raise and Esuna I guess). Obviously, Orlandeau pulls ahead due to actually having enhancements, but it's hopefully fair to assume she's going to gain at least some goodies when enhanced unless Gumi hates her.

Office Thug posted:I'm also really hoping Sparky will be turned into a 2-handed weapon, or given 2-hander damage variance. That was such a simple mistake gumi made when introducing damage variance that made her actually really good again for like a week. Man I hope not. I was planning on stapling Sparky to my 7* Lightning down the road to give her a weapon that's both lightning and triggers her gun mastery.

He's effectively 5* base WoL & Mystea stuck together, except less good on the provoking front.

Office Thug posted:Reportedly, it has way higher bonus encounter rates. And from limited personal experience I'd have to agree. Also tiny sample: my 4 runs of LGN so far have had 3x 1000 bonus units twice. Was still planning on running it quite a bit more to see a larger sample of how often the bonus creatures will show up there. Settled into a nice party composition for LGN anyway: 2 50% bonus units, 1 75% bonus unit, 2 Orlandeaus, and a friend 100% bonus unit (doesn't matter). One bonus unit holds World Destroyer & Great Raven Cape, another bonus unit is on Diabolos for Imperil, and the last bonus unit holds Apollo's Harp since helpfully Larsa can use musical instruments. This lets Orlandeau chains to one shot every wave except the first where there are two enemies. Only losing 1 spot that could be another 50% bonus unit if I ran ELT instead, so LGN should just work out much better.

Cao Ni Ma posted:Spent a few tickets and saw a rainbow fall out. Ended up being zarg, wrong ffxii character buddy That is an interesting new system they're toying with for the VP collab. I wonder if they're doing it to make-up for the fact that collab units don't go into the pool: you can't pull more of them after they're gone, so make it much more likely to get them while they're around.

I must be at 60+ pulls now between the tickets and a pair of 5k pulls on this banner, plus the occasional daily and free summon pull, since my last rainbow. Elfreeda was the last one on her banner. Unless the game is just getting all of these lovely pulls out of the way before CG Fina.

10+1 ticket gave me Prishe #2. Is 7* Prishe as underwhelming as she looks? I guess turn 5 I can do a 7 Hit 1000% & Ignore 50% DEF attack with a fellow 7* Prishe which would be a little ridiculous.
