    Random thought:
    What happens to Anne if you have her in a party with Meracle? :D

    Awwwwwwwwww. Free Gems from Multiplayer end after the 100th time with someone new. That's sad. :(

    In other news, I think I might start blocking people who: a) don't rush or b) hold their rushes for later in the chain as a Healer or Defender. Those that have super-fast Rush gain that activate it for buffs are perfectly fine and dandy though.

    Also, I feel like Nel isn't getting the love she deserves. I am very much gonna make mine my 2nd priority after Maria unless I get some new awesome character. Tranquil Footsteps - AP Consumption -15% (All Allies) is great. It's another attack in a cancel chain.

    In other news, this is also showing me people in general are bad at video games. Did the Crystal Guardian for a try and at the very first attempt you can tell he's a 'must do crit damage to' type of boss. So yeah, space out Maria and other Rushes to keep Crit buffs on everyone right? What do people do? Do rush chains with no crit buffs on for literally zero damage.

    There aren't enough facepalm gifs in the world.

    I gave up doing that mission today. It was interesting but it's taking 4x as much as it needs to because of... people.

    At least in a couple runs I got to share my pain with someone else that knew what to do and was also communicating displeasure in Stamps. I wish I could PM them after the battles in solidarity of facepalms.

    Especially when people can't get the point in <DON'T RUSH YET> <GOING IN ALONE> <DON'T RUSH YET> <GOING IN ALONE> and yet hit Rush to combo after you unbuffed for zero damage when you're just doing to for the Crit buff. So many <YIKES> emotes spammed from people who are witnessing this happening and aren't retarded.

    I'll admit, I don't really get combat yet. The game as a whole doesn't make much sense to me.

    I just get tilted when Victors and Mikis don't open Rushes and wait until 3rd or later.

    Holy shit guys, you aren't the DPS. Use your Rushes first so the higher multiplier goes to someone else.

    I just Rush as often as possible with Maria, honestly

    Usually I can Rush during the Crit boost from the previous Rush

    SpectrumSpectrum Archer of Inferno Chaldea Rec RoomRegistered User regular
    Wow. Actually found the white whale. Randomed into a Crystal Elim party, I was the sole Maria. And...they understood what I was doing when I opened Rush at the start of the boss wave, spammed Don't Rush, and then right after started a separate Rush chain.

    Oof, that MoT Floor 15 is no joke. Banged my head into that wall a number of times, flubbing the execution when it was sometimes down to 1v1, before just grabbing a LB10 Faize and having him fucking murder everything in 20 seconds.

    Frost Guardian in it's current form is dumb. The Coin drop % is way too low to even bother with the event. Which also makes it harder to get a group because no one's doing it because of the above.

    Sorry Faize, not upgrading your weapon till later. I'm not putting up with this bullshit.

    Pulled a Lymle with today's freebie 'kay. Not sure how I feel about this 'kay. At least I have a symbology user 'kay. I kinda hate her though 'kay.

    Got frustrated with every multi mission being all Maria all the time, so I leveled and augmented most of my other 5*s

    Faize, Myuria, and Victor all at 70 now

    Still need 15 more Frost Coins to max out Faize's sword, also playing him made me not realize other symbologists have cast times when I switched to Myuria, and Victor isn't by any means amazing but his party immunity to stagger can by itself turn guaranteed KOs into attacks you can just walk out of

    How long did that take you? I kinda decided it wasn't worth it when the coins seem to be dropping at maybe 5-10%.

    It's taking a long time, I'm trying to get a few runs in every day though.

    You "only" need 25 coins total to max out his sword, since you start with one free copy.

    New Star Ocean 1 Event on the 24th. Single battle vs a boss who so happens to be a Machine that's weak to Lightning, and can inflict Paralysis. If you have a Myuria with the rod from the Gerel event you're in a very good place for it.

    Rewards include daggers for Nel with the Lighting element, Ice daggers for Clair, one-handed sword for Roddick, and a bow for Reimi.

    New Characters in the Gatcha:
    5* Roddick (Attacker) - One Handed Sword
    5* Millie (Healer) - Staff
    5* Claire (Sharpshooter/Non-Ace) - Daggers
    5* Reimi (Sharpshooter) - Bow

    Roddick buffs casters and stun rate. Mille is straight up better than Miki. Clair has anti-flinch and a huge post-rush damage buff (+80%). Remi has status resistance and her Rush gives AoE Health Regen meaning she can replace a healer in a lot of situations with her strong Rush gain.

    I've actually been doing some Frost Coin the last couple days. Was working on Faize's weapon but grabbed one of Lymle's. Double Rush damage is.... pretty good.

    No its fine we just need infinity .

    In other news I pulled on this banner mostly to get the tablet Ace ticket.

    Two Claire’s and a Stunboy(who’s niche but pretty damn future proof),

    That’ll do.

    First roll got me nothing but old 4*s, but the status immunity ones are at least useful.

    Time to spend some tickets and so on...

    4-5* Ticket: Milla LB2, Ted LB1, Amina LB1
    5* Ticket: Faize LB1, Lymle
    5* Ace Ticket: Maria LB6, Myuria LB1 ...and on that note I'm saving my remaining two.

    Event Draws:
    Roll 1: Amina LB2, Stephen, Milla LB3, Hana, Tynave LB1
    Roll 2: Amina LB3, Tynave LB2, Farleen, Gunter, Eleyna LB1
    Roll 3: Raffine LB1, Clair, Farleen LB1, Shimada

    I just want Reimi...

    Roll 4: Welch LB2, Farleen LB2
    Roll 5: Welch LB3, Hana LB1, Shimada LB1, Tynave LB3, Farleen LB3, Tyvnave LB4

    Yeah, that's enough =/

    Gacha is bad civilization

    (using this game as a bad luck sink away from F/GO and Granblue continues to be the best option)

    Did one more pull which was trash, then spent one of my 5* tickets (Ronyx MEH), and one of my Ace tickets (LB6 Maria).

    Gonna spend my upcoming LBs on Roddick now till he's at least 5 then decide from there.

    I just saw @vagrant_winds 's Roddick do 860k at the end of a quad Rush.

    What the fuuuuuuck...

    Also I'm actually starting to really like Clair, unexpectedly.

    Giving this game a try, since I find myself spending less time on other mobiles lately. Plan is to try it out, see if it's worth sticking with it, and then bide my time until stuff from SO2 start showing up. Picked Maria to start and got Reimi/Clair from a 10 roll, so that seems like a reasonable (if unbalanced) start.

    Already added some people from here. Ingame name is 'Nix' and my ID is 6J2NW5SFB4.

    @AshtonDragon Support Medals are capped at 750 a day. Actually playing multiplayer with mutual friends gives rewards.

    Maria and Reimi fill the same niche in a party but Maria buffs damage while Reimi helps keep people alive and can replace a healer in a good group. Clair on the other hand has Defender passives for the team, bringing anti-flinch. She's basically a ranged Defender.

    Apparently they change the dagger attack animations later, and I don't know if I can bring myself to use Claire until they do that
