Vaan and Penelo's SSBs from the lucky draw, plus having Apocalypse Shield for Basch, made the CMs a joke. Fran died to Guilt spam, but she was only really there for Full Break (Vaan's SSB being Steal Power+) and by then I was throwing out so much damage so fast that High Regen from a Divine Guardian RM was enough mitigation to keep my tankier party members alive until the end of the fight.

Party for both fights was Vaan/Basch/Fran/Ashe/Penelo, with Ashe carrying Northswain's Glow as an emergency backup medica but otherwise just hitting things with Waterja a lot.

Re: Keeper's Choice, at the moment I'm holding onto my mythril but if I get a non-medica WM move from somewhere I'll grab that Grand Armor.

Done with Dissidia's Chaos bonus battles. Having CM requirements as lax as these in an event where you get special synergy with Dissidia heroes (i.e. I could bring Y'shtola with -full synergy-) turned the fights into a massacre. Against Jecht, I even bothered to bring Ramza even though Tidus and Ramza himself were nearly ramming the ATK softcap by themselves, but R3 Full Charge and Powerchain (thanks, Orbfest!) made mincemeat of him. Terra dropping 20k damage Alexanders was pretty ugly, too. Then, there's the Garland/Golbez fight. I decided to go whimsical, handing Terra Magic Breakdown, P. Cecil Power Break and WoL Faith for emphasizing mages, as I brought both Terra and Shantotto. Alexander, Meteor and Saint Cross made a mockery out of the battle. Next week, the curbstomping might be even -harder- due to my glut of Darkness SBs on villains, which says a hell of a lot.

Dissidia ultimate. Fun.

But, what a shit relic for a reward.

Shale · « **Reply #3128 on:** August 23, 2016, 10:21:38 PM »

I decided to see how far I could get in the U+ battle just RWing Cecil's burst and spamming the two-hit AOE without regard for mitigation. They were both under 15% HP when I died. Liiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiittle ridiculous.

(Also, the event is bugged so RWs don't get Brave Synergy, so the entrance attack was way weaker than it ought to have been -- I might have won if it worked right.)

I suspect the Ultimates on Cosmos side will fare similarly against Garland's Burst.

Cmdr_King · « **Reply #3130 on:** August 24, 2016, 12:25:38 AM »

The main difference being far fewer people will probably pull for that.

Celerity Lucky Draw:

2x Brotherhood
1x Force Saber (already had that)
1x Razzmatazz

Guys I think the game is telling me something.

Shale · « **Reply #3132 on:** August 24, 2016, 02:11:54 AM »

I got one FF6 crystal sword (4*, combined up to 4+) and 10 3*s. At least it was half price.

Jo'ou Ranbu · « **Reply #3133 on:** August 24, 2016, 02:22:31 AM »

I drew a Brotherhood dupe. And the last week had been going so well in terms of new toys to hand me.

Magic Fanatic · « **Reply #3134 on:** August 24, 2016, 02:39:27 AM »

I drew one 5*.

Edge's Eblan Dual Wield Katana. I have no idea what I'm going to do with this.

DjinnAndTonic · « **Reply #3135 on:** August 24, 2016, 02:52:33 AM »

Only 1x 5* - Tidus' Lightning Steel. Not even a Super Soul Break that would give him stats... So useless. I already have his Burst and more FFX synergy swords than I can use. I guess it boosts Thunder damage? That might come in handy in some really niche case?

Well, at least I know what I'm using as a Rosetta Stone first when the great culling happens.

Dissidia Chaos Ultimates were thrashed far too easily, but I actually have a lot of good SBs for the series main characters, so that's not too surprising. Can't wait for that Fragment Ifrit to come back and make my equipment look useless again...

Got Force Saber, just in time to make BFA Cid Mission even more of a joke.

Kinda odd timing, since the last Lucky Draw just gave me Squall's BSB and Zidane's SSB, so suddenly I got relics for the main characters of 8-10 in consecutive Lucky Draws. Not that I'm complaining, mind you!

Scar · « **Reply #3137 on:** August 24, 2016, 03:16:23 AM »

Got edges inferno super katana. Other then the Stat boost, his first relic with the stun seems better.

Ah well. More ff4 synergy!

Jo'ou Ranbu · « **Reply #3138 on:** August 24, 2016, 04:07:31 AM »

Inferno deals nearly double the damage and it's also instant, so it actually depends on what you want. Regardless, it's a pretty danged good Super Soul Break. Too bad Edge can't use Lifesiphon.

New Tactics event drops!
But it's still orbfest, so it barely counts. Also ew is this the worst banner since like the last FF7 one?

Shale · « **Reply #3141 on:** August 26, 2016, 03:34:06 AM »

In JP news, they're getting a Secret of Mana collab (not a tie in to a new Seiken Densetsu game of some sort, straight up SoM) with a free 11 pull on the event banner. They're all shared SB gear but one is a bracer with party small ATK up, RES up and 25% crit rate, which is basically the perfect Cid Mission item.

Also there's a random extra banner composed of only swords called Excalibur or Ragnarok, and it's hilarious how good it is.

Meeplelard · « **Reply #3142 on:** August 26, 2016, 02:48:54 PM »

Oddly, said banner doesn't have all Excaliburs or Ragnaroks, in particular I think Agrias' is missing from it.

DjinnAndTonic · « **Reply #3143 on:** August 26, 2016, 03:00:37 PM »

Did my free 11-pull on the Mana banner and got a Mana Sword! I don't see it being useful at all but it's super-pretty.

The FFT swords are on the banners for the (still-active?) Orlandu event, so I assume they weren't as high priority.

Scar · « **Reply #3145 on:** August 26, 2016, 06:50:23 PM »

Confound my luck!

Struck out on delitas draw. Not even 1 5 star.

Meeplelard · « **Reply #3146 on:** August 27, 2016, 01:28:31 PM »

Orbfest is over, back to actual content again. Got FFT, a Nightmare, and the Dissidia event part 2 drops tonight.

Magic Fanatic · « **Reply #3147 on:** August 28, 2016, 11:04:53 AM »

Unlocked the Nightmare fight, got Dissidia Part 2, FFT Bonus fights to do, and what do I do?

Pick up Garland, and then bugger off to the Sundaily to level up Hope/Garland/Delita/Ovelia/Mustadio.

Scar · « **Reply #3148 on:** August 28, 2016, 06:25:41 PM »

Hi gang.

Super serious question here.

I just got s a new phone, and I have the option to link back to my old account or...

Make a new one.

Now, it would be a super grind to start from scratch again, but my 1st account has been a serious disappointment.

I don't have any game breaking relics, I don't have any burst weapons, no relics for characters I really wanted...

So, starting from scratch would net me mithril from all the realms again.

I dunno. I'm torn. What do you guys think?

Edit: so I sat and meditated on this for a bit, and I'm going to keep my initial account.

While the mithril would be nice, it was the honing that made me change my mind.

Lali ho.

Magic Fanatic · « **Reply #3149 on:** August 28, 2016, 11:38:25 PM »

So, Celerity Nightmare down.

Edge L70 - Dismissal R4/Leg Shot R4 - Knight's Charge - Eblan Dual Wield
Zack L67 - Lifesiphon R4/Full Charge R4 - Battleforged - Air Strike
Zidane L65 - Silence Shell R4/Blind Shell R4 - Soaring Dreams - Shift Break
Thancred L69 - Paralyzing Shot R3/Tempo Flurry R5 - Ace Striker - Dancing Edge AND Death Blossom
Tyro L80 - Curaja R5/Halting Rumba R3 - Rebel's Might (Didn't know what to stick on him, so I went with this. Selphie's RM3 probably would've been better since I had him MND-specced for the Stop, though) - Freaking CELEBRATION GRIMOIRE.
RW: Shout

So, this one took a few tries. I'm tempted to Shout at the start of the fight, but instead I have everyone except Thancred and sometimes Tyro use their physical - Thancred uses Paralyzing Shot, and Tyro pops a Curaja if someone got hit. Eventually the first Tonberry goes down, though I have to mess with things a bit to make sure Tyro had a turn queued when this first one died.

Part 2 is when Tyro having a turn queued meant he could use Halting Rumba almost immediately. So I do that, and still am saving resources here, though I pop a Shout halfway through this wave.

Part 3 is when it gets dicey, but Tyro's opening Halting Rumba hit all three to start with, and then the next one hit at least two of them, so I managed to control the fight from there and still save most of my resources.

Part 4... Yeah, that's a damage race. Between Edge's leftover Dismissals and Zack's Air Strikes, the boss wasn't getting a lot of turns, and while Junk was an MT 2HKO to my entire party... Celebration Grimoire healed it all away. Twice. Thancred got the finishing blow with his last Tempo Flurry.

Lost one medal for actions and one for damage, but eh. Fight's done now, and I mastered it.

EDIT: As an after fight thought... I want to say that this is one of the hardest Nightmares so far. That or I was just really underleveled/underprepared for it.
