    Didn't plan to draw here, but they removed two of my dupes and this is a strange situation where all of the LMRs are useful so here. we. go.

    Gilgamesh Chain
    2x Terra BSB2

    Neither is a dupe, and the Gil chain is my grand prize. Terra LMR would have also been excellent, but hard to argue with this.

    is Orlandeau's legend dive good enough to warrant doing it with just his USB? that endless haste + 3-turn instant cast seems pretty great and i have 400+ dex/vitality motes

    Which Locke BSB? Imperil or Aura?

    Actually, either way, he miight be worth a Dive if you can set up a reliable Trance activation. A quick chain activation followed by Trance-fueled attacks with the LMR aura would do some nice damage.

    Terra was worth a dive to me when all I had was Fire Beam. BSB2 + AOSB is a much more worthy setup.

    I'd say yes, though I'm a bit biased.

    I have his imperil. Might vivi be worth diving now that I have a sb for him?

  • EnlongEnlong Registered User regular
    I have no Vivi stuff, so I couldn't say.

    Free shit got my attention.

    That plus 2 rolls on #1 got me TGCid's USB, megawall, Seifer's dark chain, Ingus's earth chain, and Metamorphosis is real good, right? I'm just gonna be over here petting that USB and not actually clearing anything new...


    Wait, fuck, when the hell did I get Cloud Cycle?!

    Yes. I'm not the biggest fan of haste+IC3 dives, but they do add value. And the baseline on Orlandu USB is really, really good, so adding more oomph to him is a fine decision.

    I already leveraged my new Orlandu USB and Seifer chain into a very stable sub-30 Siren clear. Seifer and Edge combine to put up "evil Shout" and then Orlandu and Riku smash her face in, while Yshtola spews Curadas everywhere. If only I could get some Evrae drops. :/

    Just one pull on this one as I have 4/14:
    Rainbow, disco. Both dupes.

    My draws have been terribly disappointing lately:
    Buff Lucky: Quina SSB (+water, yay)
    En-Element Lucky: ??? I've forgotten
    USB Lucky (18/128): Gaffgarion USB (dupe)
    Realms on Parade: 5x SSB (trash w/2 dupes), Locke OSB (dupe), Cloud o Dark OSB (useless), Emperor OSB (useless), Snow BSB2, Rydia BSB2 (dupe), Rufus LMR (trash)
    Free 8-Draw: 4xSSB (trash), Ramza BSB1 (useless, have BSB2), Curilla USB (dupe)
    Banner 1 (3/14): Draw 1: Tyro USB3 (dupe), TG Cid LMR (useless, have LM1, LM2). Draw 2: Vanille BSB (2nd dupe), Larsa BSB x2
    Banner 2 (4/14): Terra USB (dupe), Terra GSB (dupe)
    It truly feels as though the gacha has been weighted to give dupes on BSB+, since shortly before the last fest. Glad I'm not spending money on this. It's no different the trophy lottery from Smash Bros, except they're trying to sell players on using real money instead of Smash coins.

    I didn't improve on my normal Hades team, but I finally got a White Mage team (+Ramza) to take Hades down in under a minute. Certainly a different challenge.

    The team:
    Arc BSB2, Dived
    Rem BSB, LMR2, Dived
    Ramza Holy Chain, USB, LMR, Dived
    Larsa BSB
    Mog USB, BSB

    Setup was a bit slower at the start but once the bursts were going off, Arc and Rem were capping damage easily. I'd love to have one of their USBs or Rem's OSB, alas.

    I've also collected enough to 99 every Magicite now. Wooo!!!!!

    (I still need to farm Hades for Inheritance fodder though, boo.)

    I just got to Ixion after starting at Maliris and Maria's USB and +elem gear just hits him for 80k every turn after the initial 30% mag buff while entrusters give Aphmau meter. Didn't think it'd be 23 second clear on the first go but here I am. Will gather the magicite I need from this one then head to Kraken. . . which I am not looking forward to unless I get some decent luck on Banner 5.

    Fest Banner 2 pull:
    1/11

    Gilgamesh's BSB.

    That looks nice? It's the title of the thread. Is the title ironic, or is it actually good?
    I've got Terra's 99 Fire Chain Relic, and this one looks like it hits a whole bunch to build the chain.

    In other news, I cannot seem to unlock Tidus' RM that increases soul gauge when attacking. Ace Striker.
    The description says you can unlock it by having Tidus in your party in a FFX dungeon. And you need to have the previous RM unlocked (Winning Spirit). I've got that unlocked.

    Taking advice from this thread from yesterday, I did a bunch of 1 stamina dungeon stages this morning. At least a dozen or more. The rotten thing won't drop.
    With other RMs they've dropped after a stage or two. This one won't drop :( .

    I also did the first two stages of Diamond Weapon.
    Doing that make me realize that almost all the characters I use routinely are physical attackers. I don't really use magic attackers. I use Fujin as for casting meteor and other BM spells.
    I had to pull in Rydia and create some summon abilities to open the core.

    I do have a couple of magic relics. I have one for Edea and Exdeath, and probably some others. I should probably figure that out.

    Yeah, sometimes RMs drop on your first time out, and sometimes they don't drop for ages. Ask some old-timers about farming for Josef's RM that only drops in FF2 dungeons. (There aren't any FF2 dungeons that cost less than like 12 to run, unless there's an event for it active. Back in the day, there were no events for FF2)

    The thread title is largely because the name is hilarious, I think (his first burst was "Gilgamesh morphing time"). That said, yeah it's strong. It gives him Enfire, and the first command can give him Retaliate on the first use, and 3 turns of high speed on the second. That combos nicely with the Samurai ability Warring Flame, I imagine.

  • LeeksLeeks Registered User regular
    Did one last pull on banner 1 last night hoping for God Wall.Elara stuff, or TGCid USB.
    2/11 no discos.
    Seifer LMR
    TGCid LMR

    Both new, and both pretty nice actually. Not what I wanted, but certainly not a disaster.

    Wait. If one has Greg's LMR for Dualcast Samurai, will that potentially let him use the "toggle Enkidu" command twice when using his BSB2? Possibly getting the 3 turns of speedcast in one action?

    Yes :) . He's level 81 as of a couple minutes ago.

    Now, what's funny is I made the mistake you're talking about with Dr Mog's Teachings. I went through a whole slew of dungeons with Tyro trying to unlock that. Then I facepalmed big time after reading the unlock desc a little closer. It unlocked on the first stage after breaking the cap correctly. Which is part of there reason Tidus is frustrating, and is making me think I'm doing something wrong.

    As for Gilgamesh, I'm starting to run low on eggs. Taking three characters from lvl1 to lvl90 burned a lot of them yesterday. But I should have enough for him, then I can start looking at a Fire team. I think I've got at least three good members for that.
