Oh hey Lucky Draw is actually ye olde one-off half-price. Got Vincent's Shotgun and honestly I'm pretty happy with that.

hinode · « **Reply #3101 on:** August 12, 2016, 02:59:53 AM »

Got Zidane's SSB and Squall's BSB. Finally a lucky draw/festival banner fixes my worst two common realm synergies for me!

Shale · « **Reply #3102 on:** August 12, 2016, 03:19:02 AM »

I got three - Leon's dark AoE + Sentinel, Vaan's AoE + Steal Power, and Penelo's Holy + Curaga. Nothing game-changing but nothing terrible, either. And hey, a reason to use Leon over Basch (as long as I give him Lifesiphon so he can use both moves)!

Magic Fanatic · « **Reply #3103 on:** August 12, 2016, 03:20:48 AM »

I got...

Zack's Apocalypse (AoE Physicalx4 + Hastega)
Rosa's Artemis Bow (Curaga Medica + Magic Blink)

Not... Bad, but would've been useful earlier I suppose?

My interest in the game has relatively tanked since moving. I will still complete events but honestly since being back the game is less of an escape from a really shitty year of my life to a burden.

I kinda expected this but we'll see how long I keep playing.

Basch MC2 event is up and I had a couple pulls planned. End result: another Survival Vest, Balthier's Capella and 3x Ashe's Stoneblade. I certainly won't complain. A L30 Stoneblade makes a competent hybrid weapon under synergy, for sure.

Magic Fanatic · « **Reply #3107 on:** August 15, 2016, 03:05:39 AM »

Only had enough to do the 100 Gem Pull. Let's see how rect-

*Ashe's Stoneblade obtained!*

...Awesome.

DjinnAndTonic · « **Reply #3108 on:** August 15, 2016, 10:29:17 AM »

DLCon YOLO 100-gem gets me Vaan's Burst. The game just likes me to break it.

Shale · « **Reply #3109 on:** August 15, 2016, 01:57:33 PM »

Tried the FF9 ultimate CM, got destroyed. Steiner was able to do decent damage with Attunement 2 and spellblade spam, but nobody else could help out much and I ran out of juice with two Waltzes still alive. Oh well. FF12 will likely go better thanks to Basch.

Some masochist on reddit managed to beat U+ Nova Dragon with a team of Quina + 4 cores and recorded his winning run:

Magic Fanatic · « **Reply #3111 on:** August 18, 2016, 05:10:31 AM »

U and U+ Cid Missions mastered.

U+ completed with full medals. Why is the U+ fight so weak to Tauntaliate?

Fun note for me: Basch dropped his RM3 right as I fully mastered the U+. Fitting.

Meeplelard · « **Reply #3112 on:** August 18, 2016, 07:26:20 PM »

Cid Mission'd as well. Tauntaliate wouldn't work on Gabranth for me in a failed run because he was spamming his MT damage after Magic Immunity; that run involved Hastega + Heavy Regen RW. Winning run used Hand of the Emperor, and some fiddling with my skillset (giving Balthier Firaga Sword to maximize the use of his SSB for example)

Also, since I didn't say it, Lucky Draw got me ANOTHER Alberdan, and Vivi's SSB. Hard to really get excited since I already had the former and I really don't need FF9 Mage gear, and as discussed at DLCon, it's really hard to find a place for Vivi in my Mage Meta team, and it was gotten right after an FF9 Event anyway (not that it'd have helped me too much, seeing as that event's Ultimate fights hated Mages)

Shale · « **Reply #3113 on:** August 18, 2016, 09:11:57 PM »

Speaking of Cids, the next JP event is an FFT event with TG Cid and he's appropriately bonkers just based on relics. He gets an OSB that adds a 25 second "Thundergod" effect that reduces all charge times by 66%, and even if you don't have the relic it appears that you can start with that effect through his RM3. The downside is that all his SBs have long charge times.

And then at the end of the month there's going to be an FF4 event that debuts....Cid! About damn time.

Nitori · « **Reply #3114 on:** August 19, 2016, 07:58:46 AM »

i tried

Shale · « **Reply #3115 on:** August 19, 2016, 11:36:22 AM »

I don't know how you'll survive with just an AOE penta-break and en-holy SSB, but kappas carry on.

Cotigo · « **Reply #3116 on:** August 20, 2016, 07:08:03 AM »

Always pull on FFT banners.

https://imgur.com/9CWneyc

Agrias BSB, new Musty Full/mind Break SSB, and Ovelia's Regen and haste dress.

No Orly OSB but I GUESS I WILL JUST HAVE TO LIVE WITH SECOND BEST.

Cotigo · « **Reply #3117 on:** August 20, 2016, 07:14:22 AM »

Lol wow Agrias' Bsb is the same as Beatrix's, down to the sub attacks. WELP.

Jo'ou Ranbu · « **Reply #3118 on:** August 20, 2016, 01:21:45 PM »

Yup. It's basically a consolation prize for people who didn't land Beatrix's BSB.

This said, did an 11x on Dissidia banner 1. Got Shantotto's Jupiter's Staff, Cloud's Guise and Y'shtola's Healer Robe. Yeah, that's good.

hinode · « **Reply #3119 on:** August 22, 2016, 01:53:02 AM »

Barely squeezed out a CM victory on Gabranth with just Vaan and Penelo alive, getting the kill with Vaan's very last shot of TR. Somehow managed to get mastery too, not that it mattered since I did that with my A team earlier in the week.

Vaan- Armor Breakdown R3, Thief's Revenge R3
Penelo- Curaja, Protectga
Basch- Banishing Strike, Saint Cross
Balthier- Drain Strike, Full Charge
Fran- Power Breakdown, Full Break
RW: Divine Guardian

Vaan used up all twelve abilities but nobody else came close (Penelo used War Dance three times, everyone else died off too soon), so I didn't bother to list hones for anyone else. War Dance and Basch's default were the only SBs I used, which made it a lot harder than the FF5 CMs I pretty much curbstomped with Light of the Four + Princess's Favor + Sea Lord's Broadside + Death Claw. Gabranth's AoE got rough midway through the fight but the two most important characters managed to stay alive to the end, so I can't say my luck was all that bad in the end.

Meeplelard · « **Reply #3120 on:** August 22, 2016, 02:48:24 AM »

Keeper's Volume 1 dropped, thought I'd do at least one pull on it since a number of the free relics look enticing, and I have Mithril to spare, plus I do want Lightning's Peacemaker.

Got Cloud's Organics. Could be worse I suppose; at least it's +10 Attack for Cloud. Trying to figure out what relic I want. My options of usefulness are:

Leila's Dancing Dagger: Boon Clone, also FF2 Synergy which I lack
Red XIII's Diamond Pin: Lunatic High is still like the only case of Protectga + Hastega near as I can tell, and be nice to have some options in that regard
Garnet's Asura Staff: Holy Boosting can be handy for Alexander, and an extra Faithga if for whatever reason I don't bring Edea
Ashe's Demonsbane: It's an extra Mage-sword; I have Desch's already granted, but this would be in a realm that's actually useful, and on a better character to boot
Thancred's Yoshimitsu: Mostly for the FF14 Synergy, which is hard to come by.

Thinking Thancred's and Ashe's are the lowest priority right now. Not sure if I'll do all 5 pulls in the grand scheme of things.

Jo'ou Ranbu · « **Reply #3121 on:** August 22, 2016, 04:07:49 AM »

I did an 11x pull on the Keeper's Choice banner, got Leon's Defender. Welp, that didn't go badly. Picked Garnet's Asura Rod, since I lack FF9 mage sticks beside those damn flutes and Vivi's Oak Staff and nearly -none- of the other picks do much of anything else for me. Later on, I -might- pull again for Rosa's White Robe or something, but with Porom's Seraphim Mace, that's a pretty low priority.

Jo'ou Ranbu · « **Reply #3122 on:** August 22, 2016, 04:50:12 AM »

Oh yeah, also did the U+ CM last week, but posting about it on the iPhone would've been really awkward.

Setup went roughly like:

L78 Ashe: Ultros R5, Maduin R5, Devotion
L80 Penelo: Curaja R5, Faith R4, Cetra's Destiny
L77 Basch: Banishing Strike R4, Draw Fire R4, Dr. Mog's Teachings
L80 Fran: Power Breakdown R4, Full Break R3, Secrets of the Qu
L68 Gabranth: Protectga R2, Lifesiphon R4, Object of Hatred

RW: Shout

Draw Fire + Gallantry helped a lot against the physicals, really. The real big thing in the fight was Ashe being the bonafide damage cannon (with a 7* Stoneblade, she was dropping 17k damage Ultros, which was simply gross). Guilt spamming got rather rough late in the fight, to the point where it nabbed Fran, but Penelo and Ashe managed to keep things somewhat honest with their healing SBs (Penelo ran a shared Medica, but that's good enough with Cetra's Destiny). Maelstrom's Bolt was also damned legit damage off that setup and, once he had the gauges for it, Gabranth really helped keeping the low HP phase short (Enrage runs off a whopping 9.1x mult post-Endark, it's seriously scary considering it's just your run off the mill SB).

Scar · « **Reply #3123 on:** August 22, 2016, 03:44:09 PM »

Lucky draw got me lenna and aurons supers.

Still no bursts yet!

Doubt I'm pulling on this keepers choice banner. They all look crappy to me.

Ashe sword ia the only semi interesting one, but pass for now.

Jo'ou Ranbu · « **Reply #3124 on:** August 22, 2016, 04:32:41 PM »

I'd also like to remind you that Delita's premiere event is coming this Thursday. So yeah, if you're hoarding Mythril for a favorite, that's likely where to pull.

This said, I felt tempted by Maduin's Horn and some more synergy filling to pull again on the Keeper's Choice banner. Landed precisely Maduin's Horn and a second Peacemaker, picked Leila's Dancing Dagger. That and Leon's SBs should be enough to make the Cid's Missions not a complete nightmare, at least, especially since the CMs will -also- include a Mote Dungeon. Past that, I don't think there's anything else I'd particularly like to draw until Gilgy's BSB. This last couple weeks really propped up my mage bursting tools (SSBs for Vincent, Ashe, Terra and Shantotto, at least three of which will play nicely with Edward's Song of Swiftness. Three of them are even summoners to boot. And then, just one more month until we start getting the Chain -ga spells... yeah, I'm off to a decent start).
