    Guaranteed 5 star got me Fryevia. I'm pretty happy about that. Even though I threw out her trust moogles. Is it worth TMR farming her?

    Her TMR is the best weapon for her, so if you plan on using her yes. Her sword is also a high atk Ice sword to use on other units if you want.

    But Fryevia is super powerful and she really, really wants her own TMR to stab with.

    This error is pretty dumb. The app is taking maybe 1 second to decide the servers are too busy and dumping me out of the app.

    Yeah if you get in there's no problems. I'm assuming it's almost like a queue system, if someone leaves then one opens and then lets them in.

    No, it's definitely not fine once you're in. It can happen any time the app queries the server.

    I had it repeatedly kick me out without even trying to login (as you're seeing) and now I'm in and able to run everything without getting the boot.

    Took over 30 tickets, but I got a Rikku. Oh, and Tidus decided to join me, too.

    I've definitely shared Artereis' experience. Logged in and had summons working fine, but I move to the Expeditions tab and get booted.

    The 10+1 tickets aren't timed right? Can we just save those?

    God damnit, got a dupe Cid for my free 5*. That's not helpful at all.

    I dunno, dupe Cid means you can take a friend unit for support/chain finishing instead of for chaining.

    I think the server problems are getting worse. When I just tried to log in, it returned the following error message:

    "‘My name is Ozymandias, king of kings:
    Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!'
    Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
    Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare
    The lone and level sands stretch far away.”

    The 5k Lapis pull got me all dupes..
    Rainbow was Ace
    Then Sabin, Rosa, Kefka, Celes, Grace (double mech!), Roselia, Trey, Sazh, Fran, and Faris.
    All my luck was in the free ticket it seems.

    And I just noticed the ticket pull gave me a second Setzer, woo!

    Was able to jump on long enough to test Reberta/Kelsus chaining. They do not chain at all. However, the final hit of Crimson Death spark chains with Olive's Mortar Beacon. So, if you have two Rebertas use Crimson Death to chain, you could potentially have it be capped with Mortar Beacon. I'll do some more testing later.

    Alright so status update on units and such, looking for advice on what would be my best bang for the buck as far as prioritizing (leveling TMRs etc). Been reading here (obviously) and reddit as well, but it is a lot to take in. I'm going to list out units I have that I have heard people mention as far as good/great and I would appreciate any guidance that can be provided.

    So in no particular order

    Tilith (6 star, not to 100 yet)
    Luneth (6 star maxed)
    Karl x3 (Heard is TMR is decent?)
    Zyrus
    Y'shtola
    Tidus
    Sozhe x2
    Rikku x2
    Minfilia
    Ludmille (TMR right?)
    Kefka x2
    Firion
    Chizuru
    Bartz
    Amelia
    Vargas

    I might have some more that are better than they appear, but that's just the ones I have heard people name drop based on different situations. Anyways, any help or guidance as to what direction to focus my efforts would be appreciated as always.

    The only thing I can think of with Reberta is using her for AoE element chains. Mystic Thrust used with two DW Rebertas can hit the 27 hit chain, ala Orlandeau. If you used one of her breath attacks on the turn before it makes MT AoE. The breath attacks also apply a resistance down on their associated element. Equip Reberta with an elemental weapon (fire, ice.or lightning if you're lining up with her breaths), and chain MTs after using breath attacks. Add in an elemental Setzer for a Double Dice finisher and it could be pretty nasty.

    It's super niche, especially for a 5* base, but I think it could be pretty funny. Only problem is it requires two Reberas, or a friend with Reberta and the same elemental load out

    I'm also very, very tempted to 100% my new Marie and slap her robe on WoL. Just make to make him tougher.

    Oh I'm aware of Reberta's uses, just wanted to see if I could get silly with chaining jumps. Her current best loadout seems to be fire based with Vernard or ice based if you wanna steal a needle from Fryevia.

    She's not a super high priority for me right now, but she'll slot in nicely as a third damage dealer (with Fryevia/Olive) after Ramza gets his enhancements and I can dump either a healer or tank depending on the content.

    Well shit. I finally managed to log in. Did my guaranteed 5* pull and got the bare minimum(5* +10 3*) but my 5* was a Ramza! Pretty damn hype!

    I mean, the event is starting to make me feel guilty in a "Shadow of the Colossus" way.

    Where you start to suspect that the REAL test is to see whether you're such a heartless monster that you'd kill this totally innocuous creature who just wants to play.

    ETA: Answer: yes, you are that monster.

    So... G5 gave me Emperor. I just wanted a DPS unit.

    Then again, at least I did not get a dupe. Is he any good? Last I read magic wasn't really that useful so I have been using physical units.

    Heres the secret to the king moogle raid
    When you get to the ETL raid just use Play on your characters until you get the Royal Bad Mouth ability then use that until he flees to unlock the real raid and he will kill you hard.

    10+1 ticket pulled a 5* gilgamesh. I'll take that.

    He's in the lower tier of 5*'s. He's a better version of ExDeath but since he's a 5* it's hard to have more than 1 to chain with. Also his buffed Meteor is an ability so it can't be dual casted. If you don't have a Noctis, Setzer, or Amelia, he'll have use in the Arena for his Stop ability.

    From the 10+1 I got... nothing I can remember. Another King and some other 4*, and a bunch of 3*s. From the guaranteed 5* I got Fryevia and Rikku though, so I feel like that's a win.

    You touch the first butterfly, then more appear, touch all of the ones that appear then the chest appears.

    10+1 Got me only Terra as a new unit (Normal one, not trance version). 10+G5* got me Luneth who seems like a good out of the box dps so pretty happy. Not sure where he ranks compared to Batman Cecil but can't complain about free dual wield.

    Daily Draw wasn't showing up in either summon tab but hopefully it'll be up there when I am able to log back in. 50 tickets and a couple 4* guaranteed for my Rikku pulls left to go.

  • lodgerlodger Humble Narrator Registered User regular
    This raid event is actually breaking my heart. It feels like kicking a giant fluffy dog.

  • ArcTangentArcTangent Registered User regular
    Since I have like 50 tickets, decided to toss 20 or so in the off chance hopes of a Tidus.

    End result:
    IKupL01.jpg

    Fucking five Mustadios, and I guess a couple more Rikkus.
