    Not sure why, guess I was hoping I got lucky on the way but did one lap and got a Jensen out of it. Cool to have the TM around just in case I guess. Read a bit about Victor and figured I wasn't going to spend lapis anymore but would be neat to get him. 4* ticket -> Victor. Lucky, but of course now thought about his 7*. Decided to use a 70% blue ticket and got another, hah. Now I'm screwed if I try for Hyou I guess. I'll put him up for fun when I get his TM from the raid.

    Have Lila up for Antonella still. Friends list was screwy yesterday and never saw the ones I added who were set up for it, hope to give it a go tonight.

    Did you sacrifice a goat or something? lol.

    Victor is interesting but I need an upgrade at magic cover tank, more than an attack focused provoke tank.

    So, tried Omega again using @Tiphares Orlandeau, and I can’t chain either. Lost at the transition from round 9 to round 10 when he auto attacked my DPS down. He was at 3%

    I’ll try again when I get another good friend unit up. Otherwise it’s Olive Garden for me

    I can throw Olive up if you need someone. As mentioned, just throw an LB enhancer and go to town with their LB's. If you have Wilhelm or someone who can counter for LB crysts, it'll help even more.

    I think I talked myself out of it, unless my ebay listing sells this week. I'll put my faith in Victor coming to the Mixer system sooner rather than later. Back to into Hyou Mode, with the way these bundles have been showing up I'm gonna need all the spare cash I can muster for Lapis going forward.

    Oh and that second lap had a friggin Jiraiya on step one, I should have taken that as a hint.

    Success! Came down to the wire due to a slip up on turn 2 and bad luck on LB crysts s.t. I wasn’t able to get the esper summon, but I’ll go back for that after more power creep :)

    Tell me about it. I spent so long farming up crysts to fully enhance units I may never actually use just because I can 7* them. A couple of them we don't even have any idea what their 7*s will look like!

    I just...I just need their abilities to have gold borders.

    Lets put it this way. i thought the same thing. currently standing at 3 Viktors 0 Jensens.

    It's a trap. your second step up will get you 2 more viktors and you will want to do another so you could get 4 for STMR.

    I guess one neat thing about Viktor is if you use him you have an excuse to use those random weapons, since his second weapon will already have either zero or minimal defense. Thorned Mace+ is like a free mankiller +. Crappy attack weapon with no mastery but with an element or killer? Sure why not.

    Will have to screw around with him when Kunshira gets her 7*.

    Same. Unless I foolishly enhance 2x LV's for the arena this week (which will never happen lol), I'm still around 26mil gil and we'll be getting more from this raid.

    My NRG this weekend is all Dunes. I need to level another Wilhelm up to 6* max so I can 7* him and merge him into my main. I also need 5 or 6 more maxed king minituars to get Wilhelm to 120. I have around 8 now but kind of want to keep them in case they surprise drop T.Terra.

    He probably has 4, in which case you should make two 7*s and fuse them so you get credit towards the "Awaken X# of 7* units" milestone mission that will be coming in the next few months.

    Increments of 10 up to 100, though it might start off with increments of 5. The chart is in one of the JP drop downs in the reddit.

    The first milestone is a 5* Ex ticket iirc.

    That’s a good point. Defense weapons I have are just Winged Saint (44), Broken Arm (28), Shining Spledor (8), and a Galkan Dagger I got 10% DEF added to last month.

    The Little General (from the Just Cause raid I think) has man eater and 20% HP

    Yep, a bit more work but getting another 7* in the queue is worth it. Especially if GUMI keeps the same rewards (15 7*'s = 2x 5★ Select Summon Tickets)

    It’s 40% dTDW, so you get higher def from a weapon if you have 163+ defense on your equipment versus equipping Shield of the Empire. 170 for Ziedrich

    Depending on fight requirements it could go either way, but equipping a shield will cut your damage output.

    Am I understanding the step-up correctly, that stages 3 and 4 are each 5000 lapis for ONLY the trust moogle? I mean, I happily pulled a Viktor on the first step, but those moogle steps will probably stop me from going any further.

    Huh.

    Sword TMRs suck

    There are no unconditional 50% ATK with swords. They're all 30-35% + light/heavy armour. Cedona comes the closest at 40% ATK with a Sword. This is mildly irritating.

    Got Antonella down. Has some steep requirements but if you have the units /gear and all the nonsense sorted out it wasn't too bad. Used Lilas for dps though I've heard Dark Fina or Fryevia also work.

    I'll leave up Lila for a while.
