    I've got 4 or 5 healer BSB's and a dived Y'shtola BSB. I'm not going near that thing with a 10ft pole.

    I'm also sitting at 20, and 6 of those are bursts. Easy pass. I could definitely use a medica in specific realms, but it's too much of a crapshoot to hope for that.

    16/59 for me, mostly because the only stuff I'd want would be party boosts and/or blinks for utility purposes

    So that's ~27% chance per rainbow/disco of it actually being something I care about, which is not great odds

    My extremely stupid luck of getting very good healer usbs/bsbs when I'm not even trying has made this banner not particularly tempting

    I'm 20 dupes, 22 wants/would uses. Will probably take a shot only because every time I'm on the fence with a healer lucky I end up making out alright.

    There's probably about 10 things that are THEORETICALLY useful to me in there, but almost all of them are just because they're medicas in FF2/4, which I don't have.

    And considering the lack of FF2/4 events in the known future, don't need either.

    But basically 0 wants.

    19 dupes on main, 8 on alt. Alt is pulling for sure, maybe I'll toss a coin about pulling on main.

    Revenge CM was easy with a XIII mage team. Hope can even hit a medal condition with Odin! Hell, Hope did the vast majority of my damage because Raines spent most of the fight paralyzed.

    Neo Bahamut for 4x9999 is pretty cool, I might have to hone that up a bit with new daily dungeons.

    So when does the stamina potion rollover happen, and when does the new dailies happen again? I understand there's a narrow window to burn through those potions, right?

    About 6.5 hours.

    And about 6.5 plus 24 hours.

    Tuesday morning when daily things rollover.

    And then Wednesday morning when daily things rollover.

    I meant the previous week's potions, technically, but whatever.

    So the new dailies start at 1am, tonight, stamina potion rollover happens Wednesday at 1am. Got it.

  • ElderlycrawfishElderlycrawfish Registered User regular
    So I burned through like 6 or 7 keystones today doing half priced dark dragons and a) for absolutely sure Cid Raines was a solid investment, would dive again and b) tandem mblinks are so much fun when you have a situation that can use it. I'm gonna see if I can find more uses for Team "haha suck it aoe magic" of Firion and Rosa in the future.

    Hurray, the thing I preemptively leveled Potato for is finally here.

    Catwall, Potato Lines, AlphiTactics + Lonely Mog and probably UltraTerra with RW more UltraTerra (or Enochian, I have to look at hones actually) should nail the D300 CM3, just have to get the execution right on burning feathers at the right time.

    Nice to see new stuff, at least, but both banners could've graced me with USBs instead of SSBs. You know, because I've been a good boy for Christmas, or something.

    For XIV, I've got Ysh'tola's SSII and Burst, Alphanaud's SSB and BSB, and Minfilia's ATK/MAG/RES/Hastega.

    I think I'll be okay.

    FFXIV Torment is supposedly pretty easy because every phase it spawns feathers, skipping a turn, and they're obliterated by any kind of AoE.

    And if you have a native wall, fuhgeddaboutit.

    XIV torment I'll be able to sleepwalk through.

    Y'sh: Wall, Asylum, SSB, Legend Dive
    Thranced: BSB
    Yda: SSB
    Papalymo: Ley Lines, BSB
    Alphinaud: Deployment Tactics, BSB
    Cid: SSB

    I've got plenty of options there.

  • DarklyreDarklyre Registered User regular
    Yeah, XIV Torment is going to be a cakewalk for me, too:

    Y'shtola - SB/SB/SSB/BSB, LD'd
    Yda - SSB/BSB
    Papalymo - Ley Lines SSB
    Thancred - SSB/SSB
    Minfilia - SSB
    Alphinaud - SSB/BSB

    Trinity plus stacking boostga/faithga options, but I'll probably make a physical team for the 200 CM just because it's so much easier to get through the trash that way, plus I can UCS the boss. For the 300 CM I'll probably grab Y'shtola/Minfilia/Alphinaud, then add two physical DPS characters to UCS it to death.

  • ArcTangentArcTangent Registered User regular
    I have two boostgas and a crit fix for FF14, but sadly, no faithga for supporting Alph, nor anything for Papalymo. I'll need to RW a hastega in some form though, so it might as well be Rikku USB. I'm sure I'll probably stroll right through it thanks to native wall/Asylum if nothing else. Alph can just BSB C2/Valley Girl Amanda all day long, and the physical dudes will beat its face in. Garuda is also super light on mitigatable magic damage, so you can mostly leave off that side of things, or even entirely if you can burst through the last phase. Wall should be plenty anyway.

    MP this time was surprisingly easy. Aside from a bad bit of RNG, where all five hits of Pulsar Burst hit Onion Knight for 1500 each, it was a pretty easy fight with my mage team, since Nabaat's SSB makes her perfectly suited to getting rid of Body and Soul. Two Dispels got rid of the regen, and OK and Raines pounded Caius with their BSB commands (12k and 16k damage, respectively). It's not a lot of damage, but for whatever reason D220 Solo Caius barely has 400k HP, so even OK's commands were visibly denting his health bar.

    If the in-game descriptions are to be believed (a big assumption, I know), then there's one difficulty that's better for Orbs, and one that's better for Crystals.

    Oh good. Earth dungeon uses FFXI music. I'm only doing a clear now for the first time and mastery rewards and then I never have to hear that awful victory fanfare ever again.

    You still get kind of a lot of orbs from doing the crystal dungeons. I'm far enough ahead on orbs that I think I'm just going to always do the crystal dungeon even if I don't particularly need the crystals at the moment.

    Question for me is what day to do events on now. Probably Friday, since Holy/Lightning is kind of useless?

  • EnlongEnlong Registered User regular
    I like that the Orbs are now separated. It was always annoying to get more of the orb you don't want.

    So, now that Black crystals can be farmed, I need to decide if I want to R4 Meltdown, or craft Ultima.
