    Threw a few more tickets at the banner, got a couple more Barrets. Three Barrets plus Tifa should be enough.

    I've only got Barrett, so I going to have to rely on friend units for more bonus. I have to build up my ticket stores after KH sonI can't use too many of them. That being said, since I only have the one bonus unit, I can run a good team through LGD and just stomp through it, so individual runs don't take too long.

    I'll probably have to do some NRG refreshes with NRG pots to make sure I get what I need

    Also, does anyone have a breakdown of what the GL changes for the new units and awakenings were. What are the number buffs on skills, etc.

    I've got so many 100% units and so few available unit slots. The Mixer can't come soon enough.

    Also too, the last batch of 7* awakenings. Is there any word when they'll drop? I've got a Lila, MS Nichol, PS Rydia, and Emperor Shera all ready, waiting, and itching to go.

    I want them to buff Jiraya’s 7* just to surprise everyone. Like change his STMR to a 115 atk 180 mag katana, make his TMR ability increase his modifiers to the point where he’s just below hybrid meta, and give him some bizarre cooldown like adding a barrier to someone and while the barrier holds they get 30% evasion

    I just need NGJake's 7* to happen so I can turn my two terrible units into one decent one.

    I have zero bonus units. I really wish Cloud had been one like WKN and such were for the holiday event.

    Just remove the dark element so it doesn’t mess with hybrid elemental attacks.

    I still have 350k more raid coins to use and I will probably be at the Gil cap again. Time to restock tents and potions to burn while working toward gold trophy item wiz.

    I've made 36 7* units and enhanced a ton of abilities. These things have kept me well away from the gil cap. I'm also just accruing Gallean Tins because I always forget I have them.

    In the Overall Records section I have 52 units awoken. Sitting at 25mil right now. That's after awakening Sephiroth twice today and fusing them for the STMR. I have a few others I could awaken now (VotF, Dark Fina, Cloud, Beatrix, Nalu, Luneth, Gladio), but I want to save the gil for the characters in the last round of awakenings. Need Nichol, Emperor Shera, and CGDad 7* plz.

    I'm at 60 7* units now after doing Cloud and Sephiroth (holy smokes I dont remember doing 60 but sure game).

    Just over 40 million gil. Though that's because instead of TMR farming the last two weeks, I just ran the Chamber of Riches with all my energy. So between that and the raid I went from under 10 million to over 40 in abouts a week and a half.

    I am only at 33 7* awakenings. I should get a few more with the last batch.

    Only 27 7* awoken. i've missed a couple so that could have been higher but I'm still aways out if I want that 100 awoken amount.

    Threw another 2 tickets at the banner, because why not. Got Malphasie.

    [edit] 18 tickets, mix of 3* and 4*. 5 rainbows. Madness.

    [edit] Make that 20 tickets. I'm done now. Really. This time I'm totally serious.

    [edit] Actually, looking at my ticket count, I think it's more like 27 tickets. Still... 5 rainbows.

    I think Tifa is replacing Hyoh for me as my main physical DPS. It should be easy to find a chaining partner. Her rotation is super simple. Not useful as support, but I never use Hyoh as support anyway, except the one or two times I used his ST dispel. Christine and Barbariccia are my magical DPS. Fryevia is my hybrid DPS. I'm set, until the next big jump in power.

    [edit] Though now that I think about it, Christine and Fryevia do significantly higher damage than Hyoh, even though Hyoh is my default DPS. Maybe because there are a gazillion Hyohs in my list? Or because I have Hyoh's BiS? Christine in particular does crazy damage.

    You're not missing much. When Elly comes around, Christine will be so far behind her she's blocked from sight by the curvature of the Earth.

    Honestly the power creep in this game moves so quick that I'm not sure if I'll ever spend an UoC, because it seems about half chances that in the time it takes me to build up a good set of equipment for the character in question, they'll already be halfway outdated :P.

    Tanks, healers, and support buffers/debuffers are not powercrept as quickly because there are significantly less of them.

    For example, Sieghard will stay a top tier tank for a long time. He will lose out to 5* Galuf (in 6-8 months), but not in the same way that DPS are powercrept.

    I've only used one UoC atm. I've got like .. 12 now I think built up. I used my first one one wilhelm. at the time I was running him and basch, and I knew i wanted a tank so I snagged him with the uoc. A rain, m ramza popped up for 7 stars on their own and thus I was set. same for a lot of my support, healers, and dps. So basically now, its either I want a 7* star sprite I like or a dps I don't have for 7 yet. I still need a second TT so I could get her, but I have so much varying dps i don't need her.

    So yeah, unless you really need a unit, I think you can sit on your UoC for the foreseeable future to use on other things, from what I've seen.

    I do try to minimize my usage of units I don't like, yeah. I can't really use the FF ones I love because this is game is fucking terrible at being a fanservice game, but I at least try to keep people I think are alright in the team.

    I used one for SBDF to get her whip because it hits all elements as an ability so I can use it to nail all elemental requirements on story missions. Because I am lazy.

    Otherwise I will probably save them until Charlotte in case I can't pull her.
