    Side comment. I am glad that Phia somehow managed to still stay tan. This game's art has done a horrible job of whitewashing 90% of tanned characters in their origional games.

    Also, she hits like a freight train.

    Claude is pretty f'ing legit for all-Attacker/Defender parties.

    Did a 26second Michael runs with Claude, SRemi, SMyuria, and Phia with a 34k Rush and some equally nearly as fast runs with the same team.

    For prospective new players (you poor bastards), they're rerunning the launch campaign for newbies. That's free Faize, Welch, etc.

    ... I don't fucking believe this. SOA Global is FUCKING DRUNK. Just when everyone is expecting the SO3 banners or Halloween in either order, they pull this shit and plan on releasing these guys so absurdly early.



    For those that don't know who that is right away...

    They're doing the Nier Banner and Event, or at least 2B, 1.5 years early. Those units will be probably nerfed heavily in global... yet the event boss probably won't be. Enjoy yet another near-impossible to get title with undertuned units and an unnerfed overtuned boss from the future.

    For those not following, the Nier Automata banner in JP came out in February of this year.

    In this time JP has had a billion more units added as well as things like Awakenings, or buffing up older under performing characters by large amounts. They'd later gain Assists as well, but not at the time of this banner.

    ...And SO3 banners and event last minute announced. Nier/2B not this week. I am so counfsed.

    First up is Albel and Ilia (S01). Then Fayt and Sophia should be the next banner.

    Then who knows what's happening with Halloween, Nier, and the like. Plus Resonance of Fate, first banner, was after the SO3 banners in JP....

    They are only releasing 2B early, in a solo banner. No A2. No 9S. :(

    I wanted A2. :(

    I didn't pull 2B so I threw my resources into my Lenneth.

    Fund the Waifu that answered your calls.

    On that note 2B was the waifu that answered my call. Got her in the throw away 5k I scrounged up from not playing all that regularly, which is weird because I KNOW the rates in this game are pretty not good at all!

    Then realized the maze tokens gets you gems and pulled on her weapon banner and got a couple if Type 40 swords which I’m not sure was intended!

    This game is super weird for me in that I love Star Ocean, but man it’s character roster is not deep, but the game itself looks great and runs super well and is actually fun to play and multi in(Unlike Dragalia Lost eyyyyyy) but I have put so little time in it. Mostly due to just massive character interest gaps.

    But now I gotta tho because 2BAE.

    They nerfed three things: Her overall damage buff (down from 40% always, 60% at 100% hp) to 25% always and 45% at 100% HP, her rush bff from 75% self/50% all +elemental damage to 55%/50%, and her Sword 2 skill had it's damage greatly nerfed.

    This made her ranged-capable attack rotation do just slightly less damage than her Sword 2 rotation so if you go that way now you get to have a fully-ranged attack cancel option as well.

    Just solo'd Halloween M2 from like 60% because the rest of my group died

    That is a very tense fight, and there's no way I would have won without the passive healing on 2B's weapon

    I'm shaking after that

    Actual Nier Event announced this time.

    Not Michael/Eve. Not Resonance of Fate which should have been after that. Nope, Nier.

    What was the point of the limited earlier 2B Banner?

    Did a couple 10s, ended up with some more assorted limit breaks, a dupe 2B when I already had her at lb10, and 9S

    So not a total wash, I could see myself using him
