Second day of farming. Six runs, six Greater Orbs so far (3 Lightning, 2 Dark, 1 Black). If this keeps up until phase 1 ends, I'll be able to hone Thundaja to R4 and that just may outprioritize R3 Ruinga.

I'm at some uncountably high number of runs now and only one Major Orb. This is not the orb dispensing event I was hoping for. Despite that, a ton of my scrubs are now pushing 50, so it's more like a week of Sundaily rather than 4-star Orb Candy that I was expecting.

I've gotten nearly 30 Greater Orbs and 2 Majors, alongside more 3*s than I care to count over a single day of farming. That's certainly more than I'd ever dream gathering anywhere else. Those 3*s will also see future use once we finally get orb conversion, so there's a ton of good to grab from this. Levelling up people doesn't hurt either! Woohoo, I'll finally cap-break the likes of Ranger and Red Mage.

After yesterday's stupid luck with Major orbs (I think it was like 4 in one day? Admittedly I spent like 4-5 mythril) I blew like 6 more mythril on Black Power day today, and... much worse luck. One Major (so, you know, still GOOD luck, just, uh, worse) and like 20 greaters over the course of the day, unfortunately most of them power orbs (including the Major orb). Meteo is still outside of my grasp, though part of me wonders how much that spell will actually help at first at R1, and if I shouldn't just get Flare instead. See, at R1 Meteo is just a 9 mult MT spell, and if my plan with Meteo is to be able to use it to mythril-spend through MT bosses that give me trouble, then... Valefor fits the same niche, since my understanding is that ability charges are a flat +2 when you retry a boss fight after spending mythril. Granted, Terra has a higher Magic score than Yuna so it'd still be more effective on her.

Oh well, assuming no boost in RNG luck tonight or next weekend, I'm still at least two weeks out from getting either at the moment so whatever.

That ff6 +++ boss was cheese.

I even brought the wrong set up because I thought I was fighting both dragons at the same Tim and still won with ease.

1 fighter, 4 mages = win.

What is the saying?

Get good? You bad!

hahahaha

fuck this game

gambling addiction set in and I spent another mythril before getting to work on preparing materials for my lessons tomorrow

2 EDIT: 2 MAJOR orbs (both Power mind you)

tl;dr 5 more mythril (total: 11) spent but now I have enough Greater Orbs (54) and Major orbs (5) to make Flare/Meteo, but now I'm gonna be up late preparing materials.

Worth... it???????????

no

EDIT: Actually yes because I'm getting a better Stamina/Mythril ROI for Greater/Major orbs than you guys are during y'alls freaking orb fest

feeling better than other people is at least feeling something

Today's current tally for Orbfest:

7 Greater Lightning Orbs
6 Greater Dark Orbs
2 Greater Black Orbs
1 Major Lightning Orb
1 Major Dark Orb
1 Major Black Orb

Still getting less Greater Blacks than I want, but, at this juncture, I -may- be able to both get Ruinga to R3 and Thundaja to R4 by November. Also level-capped Sazh, Gladiator is L45, Ranger L42. Also working on Cecil (L54), Y'shtola (L64) and Snow (L52).

I'm getting a decent amount of greater orbs but not a single major so far.  I've only seen Gigantaur twice, and both times he dropped a greater.

So, to continue the general theme of this topic, fuck you Snow.

<3 you too.

Updated Orbfest Tally for the day:

9 Greater Lightning Orbs
8 Greater Dark Orbs
6 Greater Black Orbs

Major orbs remain the same.

Total tally so far:

2 Major Black Orbs
2 Major Lightning Orbs
1 Major Dark Orb
22 Greater Lightning Orbs
11 Greater Black Orbs
12 Greater Dark Orbs

Gladiator's about to hit the level cap and Ranger's L48, capped Y'shtola and am currently running Tellah as my healer. Things are going quite well!

JP datamining has revealed references to Ramza and Agrias in the code for the latest update.

Also the latest gimmick boss has specific anti-Retaliate measures in its AI script, which is hilarious.

DeNA just announced a new event being released for Global.

An FF7 event introducing SSBs.

DURING ORBFEST.

What.

The Cloud MC2 event is a lot shorter than your usual event, having ten dungeons and the bonus battles - and that was always the schedule anyway. I'm likely just spending a couple Mythril to rush through the event and go back to Orbfest, since I can use it to level Barret anyway and he's needed for a couple target scores. I wouldn't pull for Organics unless you're -desperate- for mage gear or have a lot of Mythril/gems to burn, though: it comes back in less than two months in the SSBfest.

Progress!

Firion is at 50, got Terra and flower girl to 64.

I like to give them wiggle room just in case I need them to lv up in a boss rush or something.

Currently leveling:

Eiko
Rinoa
Ashe
Gladiator
And Kain's pappy.

I've gotten a lot of major orbs. Even had to mbo drop in one fight.

Think I have gotten 3 of each so far? I really haven't been keeping count.

Good luck continues, got a MLO today. Considering I won't be spending MLO, MIO, and MSOs on anything else, That should have me at R2 Full Break by... January, discounting event rewards.

When I put it that way it's really discouraging.

Still debating my choices. One option, if I'm going purely for options to blow mythril on Divine Bosses and aiming for boosting my ability charges via that, is get Flare and then also get Bahamut. I'd never actually be able to R2 Bahamut due to lack of a Summon day, but that is an option.

Tomorrow's White Power day and I'm still not hurting for orbs, so time to wrap up Garnet's event. If I think I have a shot of winning IIF I make Flare I think I'll bite the bullet and do it.

They also introduced the +6 Combat skill today, so I should probably finally dive into the Ultima dungeons and do those. You can't convert Crystals from gems and vice versa, and they're only given as quest rewards for Divine fights, so it's gonna be a loooooong time before I have it, but meh gotta start somewhere. At least in this arena I'm on pace with everyone else since the skills were introduced while I was playing.

Today, I'm not doing refreshes in order to not utterly burn out - and I'll probably only do more refreshes on Phase 3, since none of the other orb types are that high in demand for me. And then, the game promptly handed me two more Majors this morning. Already at 25 GLOs, 67 GBOs and 65 GDOs on the inventory. If I get one more Major Lightning, I'll be able to craft both Full Break -and- Odin, but not sure if I want to make that commitment. Meanwhile, I'm seven Major Earth Orbs away from honing Meteor to R2. Nutsy.

Currently levelling Bard and Red Mage alongside Tellah, Cecil and Snow. Once Cecil caps, Snow'll be my Knight bot (seriously, Draw Fire is pretty good at helping those low-level loser Cores stay alive).

Jumped back in to take advantage of the half-price 11x draws. My first pulled just one five-star, an Oak Staff, but a bunch of four-stars that are making the already-trivial earlygame stuff even more so. Got 45 Mithril saved so I can do another pull when the next phase starts, and in the meantime I'm working my way through the World of Balance to maaaaaaaaaaaaaybe get Terra because the enemy levels get too high for me to cheese.

Oak Staff is the best black mage rod in the current metagame. Highest MAG and Vivi's still one of the best mages in the fray. That thing served me crazy well for months and it just keeps on giving. Also, definitely attempt getting Terra, she's really good and the end Classic dungeon's actually pretty easy to handle once you have -ras and levels around 25 or so.

Thundaga (my only -aga, but you don't really need more than one at level 22) powered by the Oak Staff is currently ripping apart everything Rydia points it at, so yeah, I'm not expecting too many problems at this point. My main need is more good orbs so I can hone the thing. If only there was an orb event going on right now OH WAIT.

Still doing minute farming. Last run gave me a Greater Black and a Greater Dark, so the total tally is inching closer to average across the board after the insane lopsidedness of Greater Lightnings in the first two days. Today's highlight was running into five Gigantuars, two of them in a row. Can't wait until phase 2 kicks in for the next 25-mythril draw.

Especially considering that they looked up FF7 typoes like Touph Ring.
