Daily 1/2 pull was a rainbow... Elfreeda. What a roller coaster of emotions. What I want to know is if Christine's Snow Burial spark-chains with T.Terra's awakened chaos wave, because that opens up a great pairing for any 10-man trial that is not ice- or magic-resistant. Does Kryla's Hex Eye max out at 5 ailments/50k damage as reported? It does fixed damage, so it can be useful against high def/spr enemies. I could see it paired with the Imperil spell, since that applies 6 elemental debuffs that are never resisted.

Welp, I burned my stockpile of 60 tickets, 4 4* tickets, 4 4* EX tickets, and 8 10+1 tickets, but did not pull Christine. However, I did pull: Dark Veritas Kryla Loren Fryevia Ayaka Wilhelm Fohlen #2. At least I can use DV+Agrias as chainers for 10-man trials which was the point of this spree, and once I level up Ayaka I can catch up on the trials.

Woof. Made a try at Sheratan, wiped at 1%. The heck of it is I might have been able to pull it off if I had gone all-in with what was left of my B team instead of trying to buy time to recover after most of my A team was mp-drained and killed. Still, from what I learned about the flow of battle, I'm sure my next try will go much smoother. All-in-all, I think it is an enjoyable challenge. My biggest joy was this first opportunity to use enhanced Emperor. He was the main attacker on my A team and by the time I got to the fruit phase his stack was big enough to kill the first fruit in two turns, but then everything fell apart.

Burnt that tree down in 15 turns once I was prepared to deal with the MP drain. 7 turns to get to 49%, 4 turns to kill Sheratan including 1 turn with Emperor swapped out as I recovered mp, then 2 each for the fruits. My ridiculous team was Ayaka, Zarg, Mystea, 100% evasion WoL, Emperor, and backup Tilith for the mp drain turn. I would have done better if I kept track of when buffs and breaks were expiring, but the joy of this team is I didn't need to. Like, I could have downed the 2nd fruit in 1 turn if I used WoL's spr break, maybe the 1st as well. Victis posted:EVO MAG-kitted Garnet calling Bahamut to cap a chain (I used 2 pods) can wipe Sheratan and the fruits from 49% or whatever Thanks, I'll have to do this when I go back for the moogle reward. I geared my B team for this, but instead I stuck with Emperor because I find it hilarious how powerful his FfB gets and it only generated 2 esper orbs over the entire battle.

Giant Gingerbread Man was annoying. Mystea was key for casting stop resistance and tanking the Consume. In my run the boss kept spamming Consume when I got him below 50%, so I couldn't put him down until turn 11. Guess I'll only be making 1 joyful spirit for Wilhelm. I was thinking, if Joyful Spirits stack then 2 might be useful for anyone short on Discernments or Ribbons, since 2 would effectively be an HP 20% and most of a Discernment.

Cobalt60 posted:Serious request: If you find use for 2x Reberta, please post details here. She and Aileen are my 5* dupes who never see any play time ever (other than Delita, K.Delita... ugh) If you were farming a tough story event and had no infinite mp restore units (ex. Ace, Roselia, Tilith+Zarg), tag-team Rebertas can alternate AOE attack and recovery jump so you can reach the mid/end-bosses with full mp/hp, then take on the bosses chaining Mystic Thrusts or their LBs.

Evasion DV is not as exciting as a D.Rain who counters the boss to death, but the DV I have up is now untouchable by this raid boss (at the cost of swapping out two sources of dragonkiller). He absorbs the dark magic attacks, evades the fire and normal physical attacks, and can still holy chain with Friendlandeaus.

Mill Village posted:I haven't played this game since August so I don't know the meta at all. What major changes should I be aware of? I think I remember hearing about evolutions that required 5 copies of that particular unit. Meta-changing units released: Ayaka is here, and will be a top healer for some time. Mystea (JP Mistair) is here, bringing the AOE magic cover tank meta. Cloud is here, ushering in the era of True Doublehand (TDH, also shin-doublehand) Fixed Dice (FD) builds for whales. Roy is here and Ramza enhancements are supposed to be next, meaning the bard meta is starting. Other unit things to note: Noctis and his TMR were un-nerfed. Notable limited release units you won't get were Halloween's Illusionist Nichol, who can turn any other unit into an AOE physical cover tank, and Christmas's Christine, who among other unique things can perfect chain with enhanced T.Terra.

I've only run LGD 16 times, but by my approximation the increased bonus enemy rate in LGD is effectively bringing an extra +25% bonus unit. So if you have to bring fewer bonus units to be able to run LGD my current results indicate it is better to run ELT. Assumptions I make: 1) MK bonus enemy rates are the same across events. I excluded the events with golden bombs or chocobos so I could use the in-game kill counter. 2) For rates 2 low-value bonus enemies = 1 high-value bonus enemy. (For Yensa, 1 bonus enemy = 1000 bonus currency.) In the past 3 MK events I averaged around 1 bonus enemy / 5 ELT bosses, which would be 200 bonus currency per ELT boss in Yensa. In my 16 runs of Yensa LGD I am averaging 1 bonus enemy / 2 LGD bosses, or 500 bonus currency per LGD boss. 200 bonus currency per ELT boss (25 nrg) = 8 bonus currency/nrg 500 bonus currency per LGD boss (40 nrg) = 12.5 bonus currency/nrg It's 17 base currency/nrg for either ELT or LGD, so the difference of 4.5 bonus currency/nrg is about the same as an extra +25% bonus unit.

Guy Farting posted:How is everyone equipping their trance Terra for LGD, I don't have any ring of lucii If you don't have any RoLs but have your heart set on running LGD instead of ELT, you are better off trying to build an evasion auto-attack unit like A2, Tidus, or Molt-enhanced Chizuru and using an escape ability to skip the trash mobs. The tradeoff in MAG for an evasion T.Terra if you don't have at least 1 RoL means it will take a long time to beat the Salamand Entite. It will also take a long time with an evasion auto-attack unit, but you can just turn on auto and let it run until you win. This will save your sanity if you're running Yensa LGD multiple times a day.

The update removed the +30% atk/mag from RoL, but they quickly pushed a fix. Restart FFBE and it will download the fix. That might have been the cause of the Entite appearing stronger. I've switched to an evasion Noctis as my friend unit since I didn't know how fast they would fix it. The game is running slower for me right now, so I'm going to stick with this since escaping the non-bonus trash mobs and killing the Entite is faster with Noctis than T.Terra.

If anyone has trouble with the Yensa Sandsea Exploration or is still farming Yensa LGD, I've put up this T.Terra who can solo Urutan Eater and the Salamand Entite. If there are no chocobos in the Exploration she can probably handle all the battles there too, although you may have to heal after fighting wyverns.

Cobalt60 posted:Great, so I'll probably go with the crew below. To confirm, it's OK to use DW Aileens, right? That video has TDH stuff and I have none of those TMs. The guide on the wiki has a poorly fleshed out "Brute Force" strategy, which is what you'll use with that team. You need to deal with the all the attacks listed in Phase 1 (1 Arm Burst, 1 Genocide Beam, Up to 5 normal attacks) plus the World Destroyers that the body does below 70% HP and the Right Arm's buffs. Also, it sounds like the Right Arm goes buff-crazy after the body dies, so give those Aileens a way to dispel. Odin's fingersnap or Bushido Freedom will work. Finally, I'd suggest Tilith instead of Ayaka as healer so you can do the "No Magic" mission and get World Destroyer.

I won't be trying the trial until this afternoon, but doesn't it seem like a showcase for Kryla's superpoison? Kanshou and Bakuya each have only 2.8 million HP and are vulnerable to all breaks, so whittle them down with fixed-damage superpoison, then use their granted skills and kill them both in one turn?

It took me 28 turns until the dragon skills lined up correctly, but I got all missions done with Kryla's hex whittling them down while Ramza sang and everyone else either turtled or maintained breaks and imperils on the dragons. I think the trial was a great demonstration of Kryla's ability to manage enemy HP.

MohShuvuu posted:I've been skipping the event in favour of TMR farming. Is there even anything even important from this event? The 2 Flax Shields you can craft have the highest SPR for non-TMR light shields, plus they give +50% water resist and -50% fire weakness. Elemental resist gear is always valuable, if niche. The Jade Sun Pendant is a craftable accessory that gives immunity to poison, paralyze, and confusion. It also gives HP+380, ATK+20, so it could be more useful than a ribbon or discernment.

KDdidit posted:What resistances does she need for LGD? I can probably make one too. I've seen mobs use lightning and ice, and Beatrix uses lightning magic and a paralysis attack. I assume the mobs also use fire for lore reasons, but I haven't seen it yet. If you're skipping the mobs you only need 100% lightning resistance. However, the LGD mobs drop 7-8 currency per round this time, instead of just 1.

HGH posted:Wait is this like FF12 where all the enemies before Beatrix only drop 1 ticket? Have I been doing this the hard way assuming they aren't stupid and "fixed" that instead of just escaping from every fight? For this FF9 event the trash mobs drop 7-8 currency. The team I run has 350% in bonus units and I ran FF12 LGD around 75 times, so for my case killing the trash mobs would be worth more than 13k currency by the end of the event. Killing the trash mobs is worth it if it doesn't change the number of bonus units you use and you don't mind the time spent. If you have to swap out any bonus unit to safely kill the trash mobs then it is better to escape them. Time-wise I tend to get bored towards the end of the event and just start skipping them to get it done faster.

As a rule of thumb, a type-killer ability is equivalent to 2x its value in ATK at the game's current power-creep levels. So a 50% beast killer is equivalent to a +100% ATK vs. beasts. The 75% Dragon Killer+ is equivalent to +150% ATK/MAG vs. dragons.

Kumog posted:Just got a 5* Emperor from the 250 lapis draw, how's he overall? Your BS Sakura is superior to Emperor, and she is more versatile. His role is magic damage with his signature fire-based stacking skill Fire From Below, compared to BS Sakura's lightning stacking skill. Here are what I see as his pro's for your team: If you max out his LB it gives the highest all element imperil at 64%, but that's only if you max out his LB. He gets the fire/ice/lightning -ga spells at 5* lvl3, and I think there are some early story missions that require those spells. His TMR is the best rod in the game, and you've already got two strong magic attackers who could use it.
