Hey so coming back to this after burning out around the first Tactics Advance event. Anything important I missed out on? Anything I should pull on right now? Are all of the Acolyte Archive Selections just going to be uniques?

FruitPunchSamurai posted:I feel like the new torments are actually a step in the right direction as far as the new content goes. Being able to get some rewards even without killing the bosses is a step in the right direction. They encourage you to use characters that you might otherwise never use in ways that you might never have used them. As someone who has been playing this game for about 2 years now, they feel like a breath of fresh air in comparison to any of the magicites or the old torments. Awww they stopped doing full throttles? I loved those since they meant I had to use something else besides Mako Might/Dr. Mog and Ace Striker/Battleforged. Actually are those still the go to RMs? Also how did Null Throttles turn out? I missed those and having no access to SBs at all sounds interesting.

5/33 Sarah USB Raines USB Montblanc LM (dupe that I just from the Realm draw) Noel LM Seifer LM 2/11 Locke Glint Tidus LM Too many LMs for my taste. Is a Glint even useful if I got nothing else for the character? Also kinda salty because I was planning on blowing the Alcolyte black mage banner choice on my friend Montblanc so I can use him, but now I have to get Raines' BSB claws.

Man these Bahamuts fights are bumming me out, since your RW is chosen for you it's making me realize all my teams have holes in them that I have been using RWs to fill in and it's starting to make think RWs are just a crutch. Or maybe I'm just sad because the 200 Magic Bahamut keeps kicking my rear end.

How are you supposed to use Glints? For example I got Squall's GSB and BSB2 is there like a certain order they need to go in or something?

So getting around to clearing nightmares and take on Demon Wall. Apparently it blocks SBs, but that doesn't apply to RWs I guess so I take in Squall AOSB and he one shots it.

KataraniSword posted:Nah, that's an awkward description. It blocks attacks and SBs that are coded as Jumps, because gently caress dragoons trying to nosell its gimmick, basically. Ah okay. But man it feels kinda good, I'm basically breezing through these Nightmare fights. At least until I reach the main Nightmare because it takes me a bit to figure out their dumb gimmick.

Where do you get 5* motes? I'm so close to fully diving a character for the first time, but I need a few more Vitallity motes.

Finally cleared the Nightmares and proceeded to get my rear end handed to me by Bismarck. So what's my best bet to get chains and element SBs? My best team is lightning based, but I have no lightning chain. The only chains I have are Warrior of Light's and Zack's, but none of the magicites seem to be weak to holy and I don't think I can put together a good wind team at the moment.

Cattail Prophet posted:Bismarck is kind of a tough one to start with in a vacuum. There aren't any real tricks to the fight, but Bismarck doesn't need any; it hits hard and its multielemental offense makes it hard to defend against. Sealion and Hydra are the most straightforward fights otherwise. Liquid Flame is pretty weird and gimmicky, but it's probably the easiest fight once you understand how it works. Obviously everything depends on the strength of your team, though. Is it possible to do Hydra without an earth chain or imperil? I got Drogann's USB, Bartz earth enelement BSB along with his spellblade triplecast LM, and Ingus BSB. Might go Sealion though. Got Terra's USB and BSB2, Rafia BSB, Lann BSB, and Thancred fire imperil BSB. Electric Phantasm fucked around with this message at 01:56 on Nov 25, 2018 |

The new common relic draw owns. Two days in a row I got BSB relics. First one is Noel's and it looks like it pairs nicely with his ice doublecast LM that I've had for a while and the second one is a boost healer BSB for one of the beyond characters. I mean it's nothing crazy, but it's not trash either at least I don't think it is.

How do Brave USBs work? I haven't gotten one and just by reading some of the relics it sounds like you do follow up attacks, but they get stronger each time. Also there has to be a catch otherwise there's no point in there being a level 0 and now level 1 since doing the USB sets it past those levels.

What kind of hones can I get away with for the 3* magicites? Honing up these Earth Knight abilities for Dorgann is pain because of how much Holy Orbs I need.

I've always assumed the cores were just what you were given when the game first launched where I also assume there weren't many heroes at first.

Bruceski posted:Could be worse, it was my fifth Alphinaud BSB dupe. True and it was only 5 mythril. But honestly I'm more salty about yesterday when I got a disco, it was a spear so I'm thinking Areana USB and then it turns out to be her OSB. I forgot OSBs were even in the game since they've been overshadowed by basically everything.

Hitlers Gay Secret posted:Oh yeah, because the people near me use those all the time. Nope; they like to use mega heals and other useless poo poo that I can do myself. They survive because of the Nightmare boost, the reason Ultima Buster is doing that poo poo is because you're using Cloud. The game explicitly tells you this.

So banging my head against the Magicite wall had me realize Shout on Cid VII is very limiting, since he can't really do anything else once he uses his SB. I unfortunately have no choice since that is my only attack boostga, although Quina USB on banner 1 looks real tempting  Oh nevermind RoP got my back.

First magicite finally cleared Turns out all I needed was someone with a boostga that could do more than barely contribute damage, sorry Cid.  Got a little worried at the end when I couldn't mitigate damage anymore, but Selphie's Last Stand USB saved the day.

1/11 Bartz enFire BSB Decided what the hell give it another pull 4/11 Elarra USB Cloud USB2 Bartz BSB I just got Bartz LMR dupe I can use Elarra now after I leveled her up to 99 for her RM. And not gonna lie was kinda hoping for Bartz Wind BSB since I got all of his other BSBs.

Okay so I have Zack's BSB and CSB and Cloud's USB2. Question is if these two are my main attackers and I have an entrust bot do I entrust to Zack so he can get his BSB off or Cloud so he can keep his USB mode going? Zack has Mako Might so he can start off the chain at the beginning of the battle btw.

Man I'm dumb, I posted this and forgot the key detail that Cloud isn't casting his USB turn 1. So the answer is entrust Cloud so he can get his USB off sooner.
