    Er, what? That's how I got all my Google Play credit. There's only three things you can't buy with GS credit, as mandated by their own policy, and that's: Amazon gift cards, gas cards, and Visa cards. However, I got around the Amazon one by using my GS credit to buy a Gamestop gift card, drove to a different Gamestop, and used it to buy the Amazon gift card.

    Different stores set their own rules sometimes. I know my friend cannot use his Microsoft Rewards Points to get Gamestop Gift Cards to get iTunes / Google Play cards because his local Gamestop does not allow it, but my local Gamestop is perfectly happy to do it. So he e-mails me the redemption URLs and I go exchange them for him, because I'm a nice guy. I think they have some weird rules about gift certificates versus gift cards, but none of it impacts me so I don't care too much.

    It looks like you certainly want a physical team, and non-elemental damage if you can manage it. Sleep resist looks pretty important, Wall/Protectga/Shellga are almost totally useless, and stacking MAG debuffs if you have them. Stuff like Vaan BSB, Setzer BSB, Mustadio BSB etc.

    Not sure but I'd probably say no. If done as a return they'd probably refund the points and I don't think they take merchandise like that for trade-ins.

    Off the top of my head...

    Onion's two USBs are ridiculous. Phys USB = Party Shout + Crit=50 AND self further +30% Atk and stacking quickcast (like Luneth's USB). Mag USB = party +30% mag/mnd/res, quick cast mag 3, and self further 30 mag + blk up

    Marche's USB gives the entire front row super-quickcast every time he uses a knight ability.

    Shantotto's USB lets her shit out obscene amounts of lightning damage alongside her CSB, although requires legend diving her for the trance quick cast to offset the slow witch abilities. Also works decently for ice alongside Rinoa's ice chain. If witch ever gets other elements, it'll be good for them too.

    Zell's USB is the primo fire monk monstrosity.

    Tidus's USB is the primo physical water monstrosity.

    Queen's USB is basically a clone of Lightning's, but for generic spellblades instead of lightning element attacks (still enLightning though). She also gets a trance mode, but no starting haste/Insta-3.

    Not the next FF3 event, but a later one featuring two new USBs for Onion Knight, as well as a LMR for him. His Legend Dive is unique in that it has two branches, with a Celerity w-cast and BLK w-cast at each end, so you probably will only end up getting use out of one or the other, and thus his "start with Instant cast 2" LMR is extra valuable.

    As for his USBs, there's a Ninja one that's Shout + 50% party Crit fix + EX mode for him for Celerity abilities, as well as a Sage one with MAG/MND/RES + Hastega + Quickcast and a magical EX mode.

  • chrisnlchrisnl Registered User regular
    If we ever get the chains we didn't get in the Superfest, those will be top relics. I'm a big fan of Vaan and Zidane USBs as well (both in the festival), though it is understandable if not everybody is. I wouldn't say there are a huge number of must have relics coming up, but there are a good number of very strong ones and getting one or two of them would be quite handy.

    It's videos like this that really tempt me to go for a real primo Noctis relic, or at the very least, his LMR.

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-xm3tj9j8qU

    I mean, he doesn't need one at all as the god of non elemental damage, but being able to go even beyond that...

    I wish I had hit Luneth's USB instead of Firion's confused nonsense. Haste + IC3 is a hell of a drug, and I want my taste.

    Tfw spend all of the day's stam on Orbfest and only got 900 Chips.

    And then you realize you have basically 2 Mythril in the budget leftover to do refreshes.

    Yeah...I either cut a pull entirely or I'm definitely not getting all of the stuff from this Orbfest. Or I pay gems and fuck that nonsense.

    And this also seems like it'll be our last Orbfest too so that's cool. Best rewards, last one, but Global doesn't get enough stamina to complete it.

    Japan has not seen an orbfest after this current one. Their 3rd anniversary event doesn't even include one it seems. Frankly orbfests are not super important after the next daily revamp anyway, as the experience and orb acquisition rate, not to mention farmable crystals, are better than orbfests. So in a way Japan has been in an orbfest since the daily revamp.

    After the last Orbfest saw all my characters capped, I stopped doing EXP daily in favor of waiting for Orbfests to level characters. If they're done, I'll have to rethink that policy again.

    Just talking through my Legend Dive progress/choices.

    For this rotation I'm locked into a 3/1/1/1/1/3 pattern for even expenditure.

    Dives completed:
    Mage 1/3 - Vanille
    Knight 0/1
    Hybrid 1/1 - Fujin
    Speed 0/1
    Support 1/1 - Ramza
    Combat 2/3 - Lightning, Butz

    Current motes:
    143 Spirit
    183 Dex
    115 Vit
    239 Wisdom
    98 Bravery

    The last Combat dive is earmarked for Ayame and basically all-but-spent, so that's really down to 83 Dex and 15 Vit and completes that for this rotation.

    My conundrum is as follows:
    I have a LOT of Mages worth diving but no one's jumped out to the lead as of yet. Plus, Spirit Motes are lagging and so I'm reluctant to spend those on Knights.
    BUT the most reachable Magicite upgrade seems to be diving Beatrix even with SSB only for her doublecast because I'm so hard up for fast bursty Holy damage. Divine Cross into Guardbringer and pray for doublecasts. I think having it might be just enough Holy to crack 120k in 3 turns between PCecil with new USB spamming Guardbringer, Beatrix's abilities, either Agrias or Celes also using Divine Cross into Guardbringer, and Ramza throwing some Banishing Strike after the opening Shout, though I'd have to really sit down and carefully math it. (Might not have the necessary ATK values until I get both Cecil and Beatrix to 99)

    So that's an option.

    Otherwise I could keep that Spirit/Wisdom split reserved for a Mage and do the last Dex/Brave dive instead as that's really close. Only problem is I don't have anyone really begging for a dive there. Lion was the only real candidate there for awhile but she doesn't even use Thief abilities outside a Jump Start and I've even been waffling crafting Dervish for her. I do have Locke's SSB+BSB aura-imperil combo now but fucked if I need Fire help between Refia and Krile. Tidus isn't dive worthy with BSB alone and he's not displacing Bartz or Yuffie with that alone on my Liquid Flame team.

    More to come still. I like that about FFRK. There's these new powerhouse relics showing up but even if you swing and miss there's more in different flavors just a little further away. Makes it so that nothing is truly "vital" since even Cloud USB can be RW'd. And when you do land a toy or two there's no real need to keep chasing the new stuff for fear of falling behind.

    I suppose I really ought to legend dive Bartz, at least on my main account, since I have his wind aura SB, earth aura BSB, OSB and now USB (plus his old SSB for another +10 ATK), and it probably makes sense to grab his water aura BSB off the gem select draw (assuming it is there, they could always mess with the selection list). Poor Nine, it looked like he was going to break into the wind team until I got that Chicken Knife. I have to imagine that the USB is going to contribute significantly more damage than his OSB, and I should likely give him Snowspell Strike too. I'll probably wait to fully commit until after I see if I get any other fun toys, since I do plan at least one draw each on the PS1 and PS2 banners.

    So far I have done legend dives on Cloud and Y'shtola, and Bartz would make a second combat character. I'm not sure what other mages I might want to dive, SSB + OSB Terra is certainly a candidate, as is BSB Rapha. Cecil with his USB is also a possibility I suppose. This is actually a difficult decision and I'll have to think on it.

    E: It also seems both lazy and a bit of a waste that his BSB4 is a carbon copy of his BSB3, except with a Wind aura instead of Earth, and Wind/Non commands instead of Earth/Wind. Mix some fire in there! There's lots more spicy things they could do.

    After going back and forth on pulling on banner 2 while considering whether to chase relics on 3, I finally decided that not chasing relics would be the wiser thing to do, and split my pulls - after all, there're a few things I want on 2, too, even if I mightn't get it.

    3x Discos, and a rainbow.

    2x Terra USB, Faris USB, and Ceodore BSB. I'll take it. We'll see how I do on Thursday.
