    So, turns out the water jump does indeed have the usual air time. Still better than other 5-star jumps, but less amazing than I had first thought. The wording on the move is misleading; doesn’t mention the jump time at all.

    Report it and get us all some apology mythril! :P

    Elemental banners and Full Throttle confirmed, will be up as soon as maintenance is over.

    One last hurrah to spend Mythril on before the next fest.

    A lot of the upcoming banners are actually pretty great, just not holy chain great. Also not 15 mythril. That's a steal.

    Fingers crossed for an Earth or better Dark chain.

    Gen 2 chain and matching Awakening in on element.

  • FryFry Registered User regular
    Gonna have to wait for the relic lists. I already have at least some sort of chain for every element, and the chance of getting an Awakening will probably be pretty small.

    Daily draw: no SB XIII fist. 95 ATK at maximum level. Wow.

    I've got 2.0 chains in 5 elements and 1.0's for the rest so I'm going to have to take a good look at these as well. I do just like pulling though, so I might be tempted anyway.

    ...oops, I sent a support mail about the issue with Aqua Corkscrew, but I wrote it as “Rainy Corkscrew” the entire time. I hope that doesn’t confuse matters.

    man they really need to cut down on Magicite exp. I swear I've only been doing Auto Tiamat for the past day and I still need a lot of exp to finish up some inheritances

    Well, sub-30s a 5* Magicite gives 3x EXP compared to a 4*.

    yeah but...that means I have to interact with the game! lol

    edit: I get what you're saying and I could probably do something but it's pretty awesome that I can be doing some reports and putting out fires here in the office while the exp accrues itself. it's still surprising that basically devoting one whole day to that endeavor is still not enough. Then again I'm leveling up a bunch of 5* magicites and a couple of 4*s to grab some passives I didn't have.

    Daily hit - Ricard en-lightning LMR. I have nothing but wind stuff for him.

    Other recent dailies - Firion Unique, Kimahri SSB.

    Recent 100-gem hits - Ingus LMR.

    I'm pretty good in all elements, with chains for each (dark, wind, ice, and lightning have both magical and physical G2 chains). The exception is magical holy, for which my best tech is...Rem BSB and Raines BSB. I'm not sure that'll cut it against Ark using Ramza's chain, even with OK mUSB on top.

    I think I should set up an Auto sub 30 dark team soon. I just looked at my Tiamat team Magia Levels and wow.

    Ramza chain is more than plenty for Ark. The tricky part for Ark is bringing something to survive the massive overflow attack in phase 3, and accepting that every now and again everyone will have a turn where they do very little damage due to a debuff. Summoners are reasonable tag ins for DPS if you have enough hones on Lunar Dragon and a pile of Madeen abilities. Rydia AOSB is legit, for instance.

    Apparently some folks just use their Deathgaze teams for Ark, so if you have Deathgaze working, you can try that. :X

    Daily hit: Beatrix USB. Neat! The only relic I had for her was her cover LMR, so this is a significant upgrade.

    I now have enough holy swords to remake the Iron Throne. The book version, not the puny tv one.

    I grabbed a Holy Artifact Sword for that reason. Let me mulch a ton of stuff.

    Thought it might let me mulch deathgaze but nope

    So, turns out Aqua Corkscrew actually has the “normal” jump time. So it not being mentioned is in line with moves like Jump. still, the language is misleading, particularly since Flash Disaster and Quick Hit use the same wording.

    I did a count (excluding dupes), and I've netted 20 holy swords so far. The 5* ones have been mulched, but I'm sitting on far more 6* holy swords than I need.

    Too bad dual wielding wasn't a thing!

    Yee. Phoenix run down to 23 seconds with Kimahri using the new move.

    No real reason to keep tightening up this fight, but it's neat to see it improve. And fun to finally see Kimahri work in the team he seems to have been built to support.

    I'm super excited for these elemental draws. I'm also terrified of pulling. Hooray for gacha.

    I'm guessing the first pulls will have happened before I get up, but best of luck tomorrow, all.

    I'm going to be starting off with two for sure. Thinking about two more, but that'll take me back down to 0 mythril, so I might just get back up to 50 min and pull when I get back to 65.

  • JragghenJragghen Registered User regular
    Finally got around to updating my spreadsheet with weapons/armors, and I'm heading off to do some sharding.

    I've got stuff which is natively 6* marked for mulching. This feels SO WRONG.

    I still upgrade 6* weapons with native elemental boosts if it's for a rare element, like physical wind or magical ice.

    Lots of changes:

    Magicite can break level cap without max leveling -- GOOD
    Torments now appear in realm order -- I suppose this doesn't matter to anyone else in thread, but I haven't beaten any D??? so this is a huge QOL upgrade for me.
    RM sorting - FINALLY!

    Using fat chocobo shop apparently awards mission recruit a hero in the hall of rites. If you guys needed 10 lesser holy orbs.

    Looking to see when relic cutoffs are.

    I’ve done a bunch of torments, and very much like that change. Sucks having to remember where a given one is.

    —————

    Another change is that statuses that take control away from a character no longer empty their ATB bar.

    I don't think there is a relic cutoff!
    Kimhari Knight Lance appears to be on the water relic draw.
    This is all from my investigation so may be wrong.

    Holy draw:
    WOL LMR small chance to deal three holy/non attacks and restore 1,500 HP to an ally. I guess it depends on how small small is.
    Cecil BSB 2? draw fire. MEH? Meh. Not even better than Paladin force since no en holy.

    Well.

    Opinions on if it is worth pulling again for 50 or just stalling on progress for months.

    Wow there are so many relics on here. I guess its not worth. ._.


    Ice because Celes AASB is holy/ice right? Right?
    Hmm. I thought I had all Serah BSBs but nope. FEH
    Steiner USB... Wait did Steiner actually get a good soul break at some point?
    Party Instant Cast + all attacks that hit weakness trigger 6 attacks and increase user's fire lit ice attack levels by 1
    Wow, that's slightly better than his last USB!

    Pulled on Dark because Orlandu stuff could help. Maybe?
    Seifer Glint which is minor imperil and dark attack plus 1 instantly. I guess that's not terrible for a chain holder.
    Queen OSB which wow what a let down of a disco.

    Wind because???

    Fang BSB dupe
    Zidane BSB dupe
    Cid VII BSB meh
    Barret USB. Talk about a let down of a disco. Maybe a sign I should stop pulling.

    Full Throttle draw doesn't award lenses. RIP my dupe/11 draw. Probably selecting Ramza set since he's a cool guy, but maybe I'll end up going with Locke, we'll see.

    edit: elemental draws do give lenses though, so hooray for my double dupe disco draw on the water banner, I guess

    What's in each draw. Looks like water has the smallest group and best chance for a 6 star.
