    Yeah, stage 2 can be replaced by a single Golden Bomb that drops 200 Phantoma.

    I'm up to 44 runs and still just the one of each.

    Is there a trick to him or just kill it?

  • CruorCruor Registered User regular
    Just kill the bomb. You can steal 2 Phantoma from it if you feel like it.

    Yeah, the bomb's like the rabites. It's a joke encounter. I've seen it maybe 3-4 times. Haven't seen Nimbus even once though.

    E: Daily Cinque. Three draws, three bonus units. Too bad all 50%ers, but I'll take it. Not sure I can actually fit her in and still coast through Elite though. I may have to figure out chaining with the garbo units. Not sure how much more grinding I even want to do on this event either. I've almost got enough for all the tickets and quartz. Nothing else is particularly tempting.

    The sword doesn't seem awful? Though I guess there are a far amount of weapons around that attack level.

  • CruorCruor Registered User regular
    It's not bad if you need another nonelemental, non-TMR sword beyond Enhancer.

    I managed to pull a Nine and I have been clearing PRO with it plus any friend that has Type-0 characters, I find it a lot easier even if I do get less phantoma than ELT. I already bought the sword and all the cheap tickets (Need to buy the 6000 ones.), should I get the defense apparatus or the cheap materias (Helm and shield.)?

    Also, perhaps my only TMR that has any chance of finishing is my Pecil's excalibur, currently at 74%, having fed him several trust moogles in order to get a good weapon; but after a while I have pulled 3 more Cecils and used them to set up a manual TMR farm with my 4 Cecils; how many excaliburs should I try to get? 2? If I fuse all my Cecils and one of the trust moogles I have I might be able to finish, but I think it might be a waste to use trust moogles now that I have 3 Cecils I can farm.

    Edit.- thanks for your help!

    So many Larlars. I've managed to max out Cupid Artemios, Rain, and I'm working on Xiao.

    I don't think Nimbus exists, I've been running the event almost non stop and I've not seen Nimbus at all. And only one Gold Bomb.

    Not to mention I can't roll a banner unit, so no bonus for me. Not a fan of this one, no sir.

  • Trajan45Trajan45 Registered User regular
    I've gotten 2 of them on ELT. They show up after the boss with additional dialog each time from Rain.

    I am probably just buying the tickets this event. Like hell if I'm pulling on the banner for bonus units (since I need to rebuild my ticket pool after Olive), and nothing else is appealing except for the 15% ATK.

    We'll see how long this blog lasts

    I, on the other hand, pumped 8000 eventbucks into King Mog and now I just need to wait on some NRG to get a few more levels with Noctis to awaken him

  • urahonkyurahonky Cynical Old Man Registered User regular
    I really wish people would put some weapons/armor on their bonus units. I can do PRO with all my bonus units if I have a friend unit at around 200 atk.

    I feel like this is some inside joke I'm missing out on. How does one get larlars from Cactuars or Gigantuars?

    I just haven't seen a lot of bonus units on my friends list. A couple of Nines and the odd Cinque or Eight, but no Queens at all, not even on the recommended list. So either people just aren't rolling that much on it, or the drop rates are funky. Does seem more likely that people aren't rolling much, it's not really an exciting banner.

    As much as I'd like to have a bonus unit for the extra event funbucks

    I don't give a fuck about any of them enough to want to actually burn tickets on it either

    I could switch my leader to my Exdeath, who can solo PRO.

    Also I ran into a Nimbus a couple runs ago and that's when I realized I forgot to bring a Zidane with me.

    Whooooooops.

    I'll add you when I get up. I really meant bonus units like Cinque, Eight, etc. So many on my list have <100 atk.

    Gilgamesh on Thursday, time for a little fun.

    The new banner is mostly junky, but Ramza is probably a blatant attempt to suck pulls out of me before Orlandu. It'll work too, I might rather have a Ramza available in the future than Orlandu. And hey, as it turns out Exdeath's TM isn't completely without a use. I kind of which I had one available on JP.

    I've only gotten an Eight thus far from my daily pulls. It's been some pretty shitty pulls this banner.

    The new banner for Gilgamesh looks suspiciously like what I'd imagine the Player's Choice banner to look like with the exception of Bartz. Exdeath and Bartz make sense though due to their history with Gilg.

  • BlehBlehAmigaBlehBlehAmiga Registered User regular
    I think this is just a filler banner like that dark destroyers business. I don't think it's the players choice one. I get why Exdeath/Bartz are there given the theme, but they were just on the Gilg banner so I wish it was somebody else just for the sake of pulling TM units while Ramza hunting.

    Found out that there's really no good spears available though. I'm not sure if I want to spend 100 star quartz for one.

    If you played during Halloween the Death Scythe or whatever it's called is a spear I think. That's the best one I had available.

    Yeah I really should buy these weapons that show up during the events. I usually don't but right now it's biting me in the ass.

    I have 4/5 of the filler banner (all except Ramza) so I don't think I'll be pulling at all.

    I kind of really want Ramza, but I think I'll have to make due with the daily pulls and hope for a miracle

    What I really need is a filler banner with Zidane

    100%, baby!

    I finally saw my first Nimbus this morning. It was every bit as underwhelming as I expected.

    It is dumb that for how infrequently he spawns, they dropped the steal amount and removed the multi-steal. As it is, one Nimbus spawn gives you a "free" 1.5 additional ELT runs.

  • Magus`Magus` The fun has been DOUBLED! Registered User regular
    My understanding is JP never had mutli-steal (going by the Reddit). They did remove the survival bonus and nerfed the kill bonus by 50% cause.. reasons.

  • ZomroZomro Registered User regular
    I have 3/5 of the upcoming banner, no Snow or Ramza. And while I want Ramza, he's 5* base so that's super unlikely. And I do want Snow, (since I have Xiao, Firion and Yun) but he's 4* base and he's sharing a draw pool with another 4* base means it'd be hard to pull him.

  • CruorCruor Registered User regular
    Finally pulled an on-banner unit for bonus points! Hello Nine, ready to get a little bit of use before being dumped forever?

    I have everyone on the Greg banner, so it looks like I get to save some Lapis. Huzzah. I mean, I could pull for another Bartz or two to super speed up DH, but I think the three I have is enough.

  • RiusRius Globex CEO Nobody ever says ItalyRegistered User regular

    Hooray, my second Golden Bomb! One whole less run to run before my goal!

    I'd love a Ramza, but there's no chance of me pulling; I have everything else on the banner already.
