    Pulled once, got 3 non-dupes, with cloud Glint, Rosa LMR, and Bartz awakening. I think that's it for me, gonna wait for banner 5

    2/11, both were Faris chain.
    It’s not a dupe and Faris is cool, but I already have Zack chain so it’s the least valuable disco for me.

    Do we know how much more mythril should be available before the Core banner? If it’s more than 31 I can pull again.

    150 myth netted me:

    Cloud dark USB
    Cloud glint
    Faris CSB
    Terra Awakening

    All out of blues but I’ll take it.

    I WANT to pull more so bad. These are 3 of my absolute favorite characters. But aside from using Cloud for dark stuff, I don't...really need anything aside from Terra's awakening.

    Celes' chain, however, I need.

    2/11 Bartz Glint, Bartz AASB

    Cleaned up most of the fest battles today. Just have the Transcendent Fight left, which as always seems like a pain in the ass.

    Might put it off and try some more Part 3s tomorrow.

    Why is Rosa’s USB called “White Mage Wonder (IV)”? Is there another thing called that?

    Edit: oh, that’s the name of White Mage’s level 99 record Materia.

    2/11: dupe Faris burst, Faris chain

    Nice, got the target in one! Still a ton of good stuff on the banner, so I'll give it another go.

    2/11: Terra LMR (start fire aura), Bartz Awakening

    That's probably a good stopping point. Don't really need the rest of that stuff at the moment, I can chase it on a later banner.

    I did 4 pulls. Walked away with both awakenings, Cloud USB, Rosa USB, glint and LMR and a couple of dupes. I'm satisfied.

    Pulled once more on banner 3 right before it ended and got Vincent chain and glint.

    Pulled three times on banner 4.

    Pull 1: Cloud dark USBx2
    Pull 2: Cloud Dark USB, Cloud endark materia
    Pull 3: Faris Chain, Rosa USB, Cloud enwind materia

    I'm like 3 blue away another 50, debating whether I should toss away another pull. Those first two reminded me why I hate the rng in this

    LET'S DO THIS

    100-gem: Nada
    2/11, one disco: Rosa LMR, Bartz AASB!

    Hot damn, I didn't think I'd get these two that fast. I still want Terra AASB, though.

    1/11, no disco: Cloud Glint (dark). Disappointing, but still useful.
    2/11, no disco: Faris BSB2 (dupe), Faris BSB2 (dupe). Ew.
    2/11, one disco: Terra LMR (en-fire), Faris CSB! Slight upgrade over Zack's CSB, and another LMR possibility for Terra.

    Hmm. Now I have to see whether it's worth going again. I'm at 8 dupes vs. 4 wanted items.

    2/11, one disco: Cloud LMR (wind), Bartz AASB!
    1/11: Cloud LMR (dark)
    2/11, two disco!: Cloud USB, Terra AASB!!

    Already have Zack/Alph on wind chain duty so this is bout the best I could hope for!

    It was Rosa's bow USB, I think that's off banner?

  • Gnome-InterruptusGnome-Interruptus Registered User regular
    Pulled 4 times on the chain banner, only managed to snag:
    New holy chain
    New prompto lmr
    New vincent bsb

    Was really hoping to get Rikku water chain, and Vincent fire chain would have been nice too.

    Did manage to get Bartz awakening first pull, so feel slightly mollified.
    Tempted to try and pull for Dark Cloud, but will put that off until a dark banner with some chains.

    First try on Syldra: most of the way there, but not quite. Need to learn these patterns, but Bartz Awakening should definitely crack this nut with Rinoa's chain.

    Daily draw was Hope's USB. Too bad I pulled it in the XIII draw last week!

    100 gemmed Terra's LMR

    Did a few pulls, got Rosa LMR, Glint, and USB2. Cloud USB. Bartz glint dupe.

    ....I may do another pull, I dunno. I probably shouldn't. Have not hit an AASB this fest, though lots of other good stuff so maybe I should leave it at that.

    Grats everybody on your pulls! No awakenings for me sadly.

    1/11 times three got me Faris chain/Rosa usb/Cloud aosb.
    Let's hope chain stacking will ever become a thing so I can use all 3 wind chains at once.
    Cloud's kinda useless without any supporting kit but I suppose Rosa is a lot cooler than Elarra

    I pulled 3 time and got 2 Bartz aasb and Faris chain with a terra lmr solo on the first pulll. Neither of which are overwhelming for me.

    Then I was like but the thing I really want was terra. So 2 more pulls and I got 2 more 1/11 terra lmrs.

    Why do I play this game? I just want to use terra :/

    So I know AASB and not much of an accomplishment but got Mateus down finally. AASB by itself wasn't enough but making 6* imperil machist ability and giving the five star one to tyro seemed to do it. Also I finally dove Locke, not an exciting dive, but my dream of saving the motes by getting a Vincent Chain doesn't seem to be happening.

    24 seconds.

    I went USB1>AASB and it seemed to work pretty well. Figured the quickcast from USB1 should help get more AASB strikes. Also it did good damage (although not capping) with just locke's crappy chain fabula raider and imperil.

    Yeah...if anything I think I'm gonna save more for Chain pulls. AASBs are awesome for Sub 30 kills but by themselves, they're not that great. Hell, my phoenix kill probably is more thanks to Elarra and Shelke feeding her constant bars to keep spamming medicas.

    If you've got Ignis BSB and a source of imperil to support then, they still do work, even sans chain

    At least on a primary element.

    Yeah, thanks to Faris now the only chains I'm missing are Earth (no worries already cleared that Magicite) and Holy + Dark. I'm gonna definitely chase Golbez' in the Dissidia Banner and Ramza in a month.

    Ouch. Blew more mythril than I was hoping to.

    First five pulls:
    Faris CSB
    Cloud USB
    Bartz Glint
    Rosa Glint
    Rosa LMR x2
    dupe Faris BSB2

    Honestly, at this point I almost just wanted a Rosa USB so that the stuff I already pulled wouldn't go to waste.

    Thankfully, the last pull was 3/11 all disco: Bartz AASB x2 and Rosa USB2.

    Glad I got there, although I'm a bit bummed to have not seen Terra AASB in 300 mythril. And the consolation prizes are nice but less impactful than they would have been for someone else (since I have Zack chain, Elarra USB, and more physical dark than I can fit on a team). But I like Faris and Rosa way better than the characters they replace, so that's a plus.

    I still have about 300 mythril in the bank. Time to start saving for Rydia, I guess!

    Sigh I did another pull in the morning and it was another terra lmr, the cloud enwind lmr which is fine, and Rosa usb. I’ll take it but ugh. 6 pulls, 3 1/11s and only 4 6*s, two of which were the same item is shitty.

    At least that Rosa tool is super good. Elarra shines when she can smack a weakness with summons for fast meter, but Rosa can just Wrath up in every fight.

    I want to awesome your posts, Knight, because they're good pulls. I just feel sad you didn't get what you wanted.

    They’d be really good if I didn’t have Zack, since chains are chains. But that’s functionally a dupe for me because Faris isn’t going to beat Zack out in wind unless you have the tyro elarra crit tech which I don’t.

    So it’s just the bartz item which is certainly very good but I just have never been able to get stuff for terra while it’s good which is frustrating. Bartz would have made the teams either way with both ultras. Shrug.

    :bro:

    Terra awakening has already recurred multiple times in JP, so you should have plenty of chances to get it, and it'll still be good for a while. JP had it rerun in the next fest after the one we currently have. The upcoming Dissidia Heroes event has it, along with her new Wind tech. It's also on banner 2 of the second VI event from now.

    An option might be to have Tyro or Elarra use the crit bard song. You'll likely cap with everyone except UltraCloud after one or two uses.

    I have Faris USB2 so that's an upgrade for me over Zack BSB, meaning I'll have to make Storm Assault. Definitely annoying that she can't use Celerity 5, though.

    Zack provides crit damage up, rather than crit chance up.

    I feel like when we're talking about Awakenings, the ability boost and doublecast will push Faris chain over Zack chain relatively quickly because of the higher chain cap.
