I'll awaken TGCid later today for trial use. Olive still makes more sense for the raid as chaining is broken. Really with I had another Olive, but I just got my first one so it may have to be a UoC option. No STMR's in this group either.
I mean, in the end, she’s just a finisher. There are going to be way more units to be jealous of.
I know, but I'm a big fan of her design in general. But she's more than just a finisher due to her 100% Fire/Lightning Imperil and good DEF breaks, so she can play some supportive roles. Sure, there will be other units that do better, but right now she's great. And again, this gives me a lot of hope for Fryevia's 7* form
I just came back to this game after like a six month hiatus. I guess I picked a good time? 7*s and STMRs look pretty bonkers.
I have ~40 summon tickets. Use them on the Star Ocean banner, wait for the FF8 banner, or wait for further in the future?
Rena is a good healer but lacks dispel and Re-raise. Fayt is an ok damage dealer but doesn't even reliably chain with himself, so he's not great. However, they are both getting 7* forms in global (they have no 7* in JP) so those issues may very well be solved by 7*. Personally, I'd wait a little and summon on a better banner.
The thing is, it's not like they're going to just throw dupe Hyous and Ultimas and whatever at us. Many of us are lucky to get ONE rainbow unit from pulling on a banner, and if we pull HARD, we might get TWO.
For that reason, having Orlandeau at 7-star is WORLDS better than having Hyou at 6 star. I *might* get lucky and get 2 of him on his banner, but the odds are not in my favor AT ALL.
I pulled for CG Lid on her special anniversary banner because, yeah, she's probably better than Ramza 7*. But I got a rainbow and it was NG Jake. So, Ramza 7* it is, and he's beastly anyway. Yes, it's not a good idea to use all your resources on a unit that you aren't going to use, but many of these units are very strong simply due to stats.
Apparently Olive's suicide attack is coded as a physical attack on herself, so if you put a stack of mirage on her she'll Dodge the damage and survive.

Hilarious.
So bring iNichol and just let her blow shit up? That is awesome.

It might be better to let her die with Re-Raise to re-cast Mortar Beacon (if it already hit) but for the turn 1/2 blast, yeah, throw up that mirage and let it ride.
I can't imagine that this is intended and will probably be patched soonish.

I’m not saying it’s a bad decision to 7* her if you got her. I’m saying it’s okay not to freak out if you don’t.
There are other 7* finishers who will be good if you don’t have Olive.
I mean hell 7* Ramza’s gonna be my breaker too unless another Loren falls out of the sky for me.

Maybe my lack of Olive#2 will somehow shift karma to make VoTF's 7* better. I mean, his enhancements already go a good way towards ensuring his 7* will be better than it is in JP. Hopefully he gets modifier boosts for his new Power Stomp and we get a good 2H Axe sooner than JP did.

I take it Basch can't physical cover that? Cuz that would also be hilarious.
Greetings Starfighter! You have been recruited by the Star League to defend the frontier against Xur and the Ko-Dan Armada.
Were there any 7* that were different / buffed? From what I could see on the Gamepedia page this morning they all looked like what I saw when I looked up JP 7*, but I admit that I might not have been paying too much attention.
I don't have Ozetta leveled but I do have her. I could see if Wilhelm will cover that damage as well next time I login. I can probably level Ozetta for science real quick also.

Spoiler'd for size. TLDR - not a lot of buffs, and they're not great.

Well, like I said before, I have basically no offensive 7*'s in this batch. Really only Wilhelm that's worth using, so he gets the benefit of all my cactuars and pots that I've saved.
21779 HP, 1397 DEF, 758 SPR.
290% HP and 300% DEF. Hot damn. Who needs a dodge tank.

That is fucking fantastic, and will be useful for future content with attacks that can't be dodged. Now, go into Aigaion with only Wilhelm and see how long it takes him to counter everything to death.

Hmm I was pretty sure I had a 4th Delita but can't seem to find it. Now I kind of want to summon one because I at least figured the 80% attack was a nice consolation prize but now I don't even have that, ha.
Didn't get a ton of time on the game but awakened a few and switched to Cloud for giggles since chaining is still messed up in the raid and I got sick of using magic to OTK since the big hitters take forever. Will think about leveling up the old man later in the day since I don't have an olive and a wilhelm friend doesn't make a lot of sense for the moment.
I'm dumb, I crystal'd one on my initial pass through that UI and forgot about it. Also forgot about that other machine killer TM from Mario.
hum. made ramza's STMR, gave it to Basch, between that and rainbow robe hes over 800 spr and at least 80% resist on all but i think dark. As good as whilheim is, I have to say basche does a shitload of good work as a magic cover tank.

I made my 7* Olive and Wilhelm, but haven't had time to gear them yet. Olive is at a weird number for sparky so I'm grinding that out while I'm at work and will put her up later.
With a +30% atk materia instead of machine killer Olives at 2314 atk. can go about 20% atk... higher than that... and with her STMR, would be another 50%...damn shes going to be a monster and we still have lots of STMR's not released yet.

In JP it was ~20 units once a month. Since we got only 12 in the first batch, we may get two batches of ~10 each month.
I hope that's how they'll do it. They may only release ~10 a month, which would be terrible.
I've not seen Eggy's yet but mine might be the other one?
Was a guy from the random selection at the end of the list.
Yeah the freebie was my first one. Oh well. all aboard the Oldman Train.
Everyones 7star Olive is nuts btw.
Edit: I have 21mil Gil right now. Should I 7star DFina while Im at it.

I mean, in the end, she’s just a finisher. There are going to be way more units to be jealous of.
When she kills things from 100% to 0%, you cant really call her a finisher any more. at that point shes just a killer.
I know, but I'm a big fan of her design in general. But she's more than just a finisher due to her 100% Fire/Lightning Imperil and good DEF breaks, so she can play some supportive roles.

Did Nichols ATK/MAG 130% boost, Delita's Defense Break +2.
My Olive Immolationed for 45million damage followed by Eggy's doing 75million damage.
Total damage was almost 121million damage with no chains or anything.
I have ~40 summon tickets. Use them on the Star Ocean banner, wait for the FF8 banner, or wait for further in the future?

I'm dumb, I crystal'd one on my initial pass through that UI and forgot about it. Also forgot about that other machine killer TM from Mario.
I just leveled Ozetta to try it and she just stood there and watched Olive blow herself up.
I'm picturing Ozetta thinking to herself "You want me to tank THAT? I'm out!" So no Ozetta doesn't cover Olive.
"Finish him."
