Whoo Aerith LMR and Noctis AOSB. Now I might use them both, Aerith moreso on a team that I can get Last Stand elsewhere (putting her on an earth team with Dingus CSB springs to mind). Noctis I'm curious about anyway because I have his SSB so I am looking forward to putting him in some teams.

McDragon posted:What. How. I take it there's some awful gimmick with the tentacles or something? They were annoying enough on the easiest fight This is what I went in with. Everyone is using BSBs (Faris BSB1) and Alph also had his SSB. Fujin is also 4* dived but not LD'ed like Alph is. I went with 4 so Ruby immediately brought up the tentacles, which I ignored entirely and took the DPS RW because a large chunk of this fight is % damage based. There's actually nothing the tentacles can do to kill you, they just set you up for kills by sapping your HP by a percentage, which I negated by Iris throwing out instant 7K heals, or sapping your ability uses which is entirely negated by spamming BSBs. Alph uses his BSB first otherwise he'd for sure run out of command stock, but after that it cycles to his SSB and back to his BSB. With Ace Striker/Battleforged equipped, Fujin and Alph were dealing enough damage through BSBs and taking enough damage to build up two soul gauges before their BSB ended so they could go right back into it. Same goes for Iris and her healing. Unlike the other Weapons, Ruby gives you a bit longer to heal up after its Felstar Ultima since its next attack is % based damage, and then it drops actual damage abilities. This is where Iris BSB comes in - it's not instant (no biggie, I have longer to deploy it than against other weapons) but it also has 2k stock and status blink (no pesky confusion to worry about). In case I get really unlucky, Enkidu is there as an emergency heal and sometimes throws damage at Ruby. It was a long, long, long fight and very tedious chipping away at Ruby. I think Fujin and Alph were dealing 8-10k damage per turn against something with nearly 1 million HP. I did lose Fujin with about 10% health to go but in the end...

Kheldarn posted:Is there any reason, as an essentially new player, that I shouldn't pull on the new Chain banner? Not really, except that there is "better stuff" coming on the VIII banner in September. "Better" meaning "Not stuff that belongs to Ultimecia, all the good stuff on the current banner, and lots of neat toys for Quistis". I'd encourage you to take a look at http://dirge.tv/2018/03/ffviii-jp-event-the-first-words/ and weigh up if you feel the need to pull now or wait until later. Ultimecia isn't amazing but Wind-elemental casters are pretty much her, Barbariccia, Fujin, Alphinaud, and Emperor when he feels like it (I've probably missed one or two). We've just come off of the festival and before that Barb's debut banner, and she is fantastic, but Ultimecia will do well if you're just starting out and want a wind caster. Ultimately it's up to you.

triplexpac posted:The FF3 torment is a pain. Counter healing for 9k is a bad gimmick. Gonna try bringing Mind Break, can’t out damage that heal fast enough If you're going for the 200 or 250 difficulty you can cast reflect on Bahamut and bounce the heal back to your team. SOL for using that on the 300 difficulty fight.

0: Ace OSB (I have nothing else for him, and already have a fully dived stronk Terra so on t fence here). T: Ovelia BSB. Nice to have some healer tech for this realm. XV: Iris USB. Already got her BSB so maybe just maybe I'll start cycling her in and Selphie out for now.

The FF MMOs continue to give me utter shite. They must know I play WoW. 1/3 Lion LMR. Alrighty saved up 300 mythril for this event let's pull until we get that chain- 3/11 Quistis USB Laguna CSB Rinoa LMR. ... Huh. Well this is awkward. Here I came expecting many pulls and I got it in one. Hm. Not sure if it's worth pulling for more Rinoa stuff - I have her first USB, both BSBs and now her enIce LMR. She is my only ice mage of note but... Hm.

Lucky draw netted me Fran LMR (Viera Mysteries, not the Interrupt with Support using Bow), and Sephiroth LMR (dupe). Not very exciting. RoP on the other hand gave me OK mUSB. Both OK USBs

Finally cleared it! And this was the setup I used. Swapped out Meliadoul and power-boosted my Agrias from lv20 to 99, non-legend dive, and crystal water. She only has her SSB but it was what tipped the scaled from "I cannot clear this" to "I whooped this". So so happy to finally have Ironfist Earth! Oh and uh, for the pull I got Serah LMR and BSB, and Rydia USB. Cools.

I really hope it's saving mode time, because my mythril is down to single figures after a largely disappointing festival. I was more hyped about my RoP pulls in all honesty. Shame, but at least I can now eke out a sub-30 Golem thanks to some +wind gear and Cloud tech. 3/11 Shantotto AOSB, Glint. Ignis LMR.

Adel posted:Free draw took pity on me for being sick as gently caress The only 6* I have had from the daily draw have both been dupes - Kain CSB (third one!) And Snow USB.

Did I read right that this will be the last DU lucky draw? Shame, I quite like these monthly cheap pulls, even when you get crap from them. 4/11 - P.Cecil AOSB (dupe thanks for the 7* holy sword game!) Cid IV BSB, Fang BSB, King SSB.

Went in on banner 2 because why the gently caress not: 100 gem pull - 1/1 Gilgamesh CSB 50 mythril pull - 3/11 Lenna BSB, Galuf CSB, Bartz USB. Well hot dog, I suddenly have a physical fire team for Magicite. How does Galuf's chain stack up versus Ingus' CSB chain? I have both but if Galuf can help push out more damage than Ingus I will sub him in.

# ¿ Oct 22, 2018 07:06 |

Yeah I think I might have to rethink my earth Magicite team a little to accommodate. I was running Cinque/Tifa/Ingus/Iris/OK but now I think that Cinque/TGCid/Galuf/Selphie/OK might be a better comp with the new chain. Also wow okay, gently caress that 220 raid boss very much? You get next to no time to DPS it before flowers respawn. 160 solo was fine but 220 is being a real pain if only because the flowers take a lot to whittle down.

4/11 - Noctis LMR, Ramza BSB 2, and 2x TGCid USB. The USBs are dupes but my 6* options were all pretty much dupes except Cloud USB1 so I'll take a few +holy swords to add to my collection.

For Ramza's Battle Cry BSB, am I right in guessing the commands won't proc his dbl Knight LMR? They seem to be coded as Support abilities if I'm reading correctly.
