So I rage pulled and got a dupe Sora's LMR... and Riku's Awakening! (Poor choices rewarded again!) Riku gets to keep his position leading off my Dark team. Had AOSB/USB/LMR. I've got Seifer's CSB and pulled Tyro's USB4 last Fest, so I'm thinking Riku's USB may not get much use anymore.
By the way, I don't feel bad at all for only getting Sora's LMR and AOSB. Slotted him in my Tiamat Team just to see how he would perform and you know what? that LMR plus his LD isn't bad at all.

My Tiamat team uses Sora ASB/LMR, Squall OSB/LMR, Edge USB0, Rinoa (or Serah) Ice CSB, and Onion BSB/LMR. It consistently takes 16-20 seconds, with only Wall, Sealion, and Edge for mitigation. En-element materia + ASB is crazy good for 4* magicite.

Someone pointed out: almost a pity we get the 40 pulls now instead of 6 months from now. JP's pool has a bunch of AASBs.
less than you'd think, i think someone said it's only the fest plus the first month for them, so it's like 12? obviously someone's gonna get one but it's not great odds.

Aww I thought the 40 was tonight. I have pull withdrawal here.
Huh, someone on Reddit pointed out a neat idea - if you're using an Awakening and you still can't break a 5* magicite's Savage mode with a quadstrike or a 6*, use a 4* ability instead. The overall multiplier is lower, but it all comes out as one hit and will almost certainly break the damage cap.

Also a lot easier to hone to R5 for the 30% ability boost
Looks like the Wondrous pick list is about the same as the last USB Dream relic pool. Still some solid stuff in it though, but nothing newer.
edit 2: Wondrous Draw, 3/11 Discos - Arc USB (dupe), Aphmau USB (dupe), Sephiroth OSB. Oh well, at least Selh is new and Arc has holy damage. No idea what to select for the USB yet.
Well damn. I was going to go to bed, but hell, I'll do the 40.
Uhhh, I think this is 4/40, with 2 discos. Hard to see behind all that silver.
Indeed it was.
Yda LMR (chance to self-bubble when using Monk attacks)
Terra Glint dupe
Kain Overstrike
Nanaki USB dupe.
Well, not bad for free. The Yda thing probably isn't going to entice me to use her BSB again, but the Kain thing is nice to go with his Ultra. In fact, the Overstrike is a jump, meaning that the Ultra will make it instant. Sweet.
OK, time to incinerate a whole bunch of silvers to make room for the next 40.
Roll #2. Looks like 7/40, with 2 discos again.
Interesting stuff.
Leon (II) BSB. One of those Dark Knight ones that tries to make a Drain command enticing. Still, Endark for him will be good for future FFII team missions.
Zack LMR. Chance to chase Wind damage with more Wind damage. Would be good if I had even a one soul break for him.
Seifer LMR. Endark at start of battle. Not terrible. More of a "if I get more Seifer things" tool.
Mog LMR2? He had 2 of these things? Extend stat buffs caused by the user. Considering I have his Burst and both Ultras, this could actually be real neat for the purpose of allowing him to properly cycle the two. It might be worth using over the one that adds an extra dance to chase dances?
Cloud Glint dupe.
Edgar Ultra dupe
Setzer Ultra!
God, I wish I'd got the Setzer Ultra a long time ago. Dance has really dominated the support style of things, and it's hard to swing a Support who isn't also a buffer. I'm still totally going to try using it and seeing what happens, though. I can't not. If nothing else, I can try stuffing him into my FFVI Torment team. All those chases should add nicely to the Realm chain.
Nothing earth-shattering, but I got a few neat toys from this, for free.
Edit:
Setzer Ultra speeds up his actions each time he does damage with a Support ability. What if R5 Affliction Break spam, and Entrust?
Red Scorpion, Krile 6 star. It's a "Chain"?
Silver Scythe, Sice 6 Star "Ultra"? What? Edit: 10 physical dark + non elemental, EnDark, "Malice Mode." Malice mode causes dark abilities to trigger Powerchain effect and buff critical chance, and a second break called Culling Scythe fires off when Malice Mode ends.
Magika Album, "Elarra" 6 Star. Another Ultra. Healer + Haste + Regen. I'm guessing Elarra is the female keeper? I need to unlock her.
Oversoul, Cid FFXIII 6 Star Over Strike. Uses Doom as a mechanic (eww) Dark + Holy.
Tidus's Armguards, which has a Legend Materia
Second 40x
4 Discos
2 Rainbows
7 Gold
... Jesus.
Gaia Gear, Maria 6 star. An "Arcane," whatever that means. Earth magic triple nuke.
Avengers, Ignis 6 Star. Ultra. Um. That's a lot of text. Fire / Non Elemental physical, EnFire, Attack Up M, Def up S, Fire abilities causes Powerchain effect to the entire party.
Yukimitsu, Thancred 6 Star. Daggers. Ugh, lot of text. I need to go back and look at the Silver Scythe above again. 10x Earth + Fire attack. Magic + Def Large Break. Ninja damage buff. "Brave mode" and "Brave level 2." Whatever that means.
Stoneblande, Steiner. Has a Synergy bonus, whatever that means. "Over Strike." Massive Physical Fire + Lightning + Ice. Bonus to vulnerable targets, can break cap.
Quistis's Uniform, Quistis 5 Star, Legend Materia. Slight chance to doublecast black magic.
Ignis's Fatigues, Ignis 5 star, Legend Materia. Reduce delay for first 3 turns of battle.
Rune Axe, Leon 5 star. Burst. 8 physical dark, haste + burst, EnDark
Sice's Guise, Sice 5 star. 8 physical dark + non elemental, moderal attack + mind to whole party. Doom all allies (30 seconds). Haste all allies. Burst mode for the user. Why in the world would you ever use this?!
Light Robe, Sarah 5 star. Burst. Moderate Party Heal, Avoid 1 Magic Attack, Self Mind and Res Bust, Haste and Burst mode.
I uh... did I win the gacha today?
Edit: I have auto-sell 4 stars and lower enabled, is there a reason not to enable that option?
Kain USB to OSB spam is hilariously fun if you have enough entrusters to keep the party rolling.
I still try to work Setzer into teams when debuffs are relevant. With the USB plus it's chase, plus his LM2 which adds another random debuff, plus full break and a breakdown and you can do pretty much hit the full range of debuffs. Not really optimal I guess, but I get a kick out of one person putting out so many breaks.

Sucks that two of my four discos are dupes (and 6 of my 9 rainbows), but XIII is one of my Torments I need some help in, and I certainly can't complain about the price.
Finagled my way down for wonderous draw, 3/11 all disco:
OK OSB (sure, I'll take more stats for him)
Dupe cloud USB1
Fucking Terra AOSB whoooo!
Chains are soul breaks that temporarily increase damage of a particular element for the team. The multiplier grows as you hit the enemy with more elemental attacks during the effect. Chains are very powerful and rightly sought-after.
Elarra’s Ultra is a true jackpot item. It instantly heals the party, makes their next 2 actions quicker (not to be confused with Haste), and applies Regenga, which continues to heal the team a few times over the next few seconds, for like 2000 HP each time. It’s very, very strong.
Some of your other stuff is also quite good (particularly that Sice Ultra), but I need to sleep, rather than write.
Edit: oh, the reason to have an effect that Dooms the party is because there are several powerful Darkness abilities that become stronger if the user is Doomed. Something that Dooms the party frees them of needing to carry their own source of Doom. It’s very much a situationally usable effect, for if you’re fielding a team full of dark knights.
Edit: I have auto-sell 4 stars and lower enabled, is there a reason not to enable that option?
Given you got an AASB before, this week has been good to you.
That chain is a gen1 chain, so not the better new types, but still a great get - you'll want to try to have one for every element eventually. It gives a passive boost to fire damage for everyone, and every fire hit increases all subsequent hits by 1% while the meter is up.
Elarra's USB is the best healing item in the game.
Sice's USB is great
Maria's AOSB is very strong Earth magic, which is a rare combo (Earth bis mostly physical)
Ignis's USB is unfair, particularly in combo with the fire chain you just got.
Seriously, focus on Elarra, krile, 8gnis, and whoever your AASB was and you've basically got a team that should be able to clear anything that isn't torment, magicite, or heals with fire.
Also, doom is fine. Raines operates around it, and a common thing to do is cast memento mori on yourself at the start of a battle to get a mag boost and all his stuff boosted with doom.

Ah, shit. It won't synergize as well as Sora would since he'd feed the chain, but still.
If you have access to the hall of rites (clivk the annex in the top right), then go into soul of a hero, she should be towards the bottom. I THINK you should have gotten some souls from... Stuff?

I have approaching 250 mythril, maybe I should roll on the KH banner again.
4th anniversary is coming up and there's plenty of other AASB inbound, along with a banner with lots of chains.
She's unlockable in some rare events, but that's one of the primary ways to unlock characters now, yeah
Ah, I thought she might have been unlockable via Record Dungeons or Nightmare mode or something. There's a lot of content I haven't done yet, since I'm trying to burn through all the Realm dungeons.
Edit: I just checked, and heh, I have enough more than enough Souls of Heroes to unlock everything not unlocked in the Halls of Rights. Getting memory crystals, especially MC3s, is another story, haha.
Setzer Ultra speeds up his actions each time he does damage with a Support ability. What if R5 Affliction Break spam, and Entrust?
IIRC, there was some maniac who got sub 30 on the D$$$ Torment with Setzer ultra and a highly honed Quad Foul. Did you remember there's another 6* support ability? I didn't!
Auron BSB (Dupe)
Eiko BSB - New~ Have her USB, SSB, LMR so sure
Picked: Tyro Godwall.

Garnet BSB (Dupe) - 3rd +lightning staff which Onion will use!
Raijin LMR - Have his OSB but I won't be using him.
Sarah LMR - Okay, have her BSB and don't plan to dive.
Kefka LMR - Doublecast and I have his BSB 2 so this is decent.
Sephiroth LMR - EnDark and I have ASB, USB2 and Dive.
Cloud ASB (Dupe) - This is a good +Wind Sword so a nice dupe!
Shantoto ASB - Total happiness when I saw the dark staff pop up! Have her USB/BSB/SSBX2/Glint/LMR/Dive
40 Draw 2 - 5/40 3 rainbows and 2 disco
Gilgamesh BSB (Dupe)
Tidus Glint - Have Chain/USB/OSB/BSB1/SSB/Dive so at very least it's +10 atk.
Seymour BSB2 - okay.
Nine USB - Seems fine and it is a realm I don't have much in general.
Lenna USB - Large Medica, Last Stand and Barrier - I'm happy with new healer USBs for the neo torments.

Second pull was unremarkable but it had Ignis USB which was new
Decided to do a KH 11x. I got jealous of Varg's 7 discos.
2 discos.
Sora AASB -- Two Become One, 6 star Keyblade. 15 Ranged Fire, Lightning, Ice, Non elemental attacks, buff Fire/Lightning/Ice levels by 3, Temporarily grant them Awoken Spellblade Mode, Increase their Cap Break Level by 1, and cause every 3rd spellblade ability they use to trigger the follow-up ability Blitz. Awoken Spellblade: Unlimited use of Spellblade abilities, Moderate spellblade ability boost, and Spellblade abilities trigger twice. Aka the "Fuck you and your elemental resistances" stick.
Riku USB -- Way to the Dawn, 6 star Keyblade. 10 ranged physical dark and non elemental attacks, EnDark, lower mind raise attack moderate, cause dark abilities to trigger Darkhand Scourge, dealing 5 physical dark and non elemental attacks to one target.
So yeah, I got both KH Awakenings, apparently, and now have Riku's Awakening, Glint, and USB.
Riku's AASB, Glint, and USB all uh... they link up pretty well, don't they? Awakening is a huge dark ability on it's own, gives him infinite dark abilities that trigger twice, causes a follow-up dark attack after each one, and the USB... also causes another follow-up that does 5 dark and non-elemental after each dark ability. Don't know if they stack. I don't get what his Glint does exactly, but it seems like it either EnDark or Dark attack powerup... and has a powerchain effect. Because what he really needs during all this is extra turns.
... What's this about "Materia" dungeons and elemental weaknesses? Is there a Dark one of those? And uh, fire, given the other stuff I got today?
I still haven't even done the Wondrous or the Full Throttle, since I don't know what to aim for with the bonuses for them. Or the Acolyte draws. (Which are free?) Or any of the discounted Realm draws.

So the 40 draw pool runs up to the FF9 event we had in December.
The Wondrous draw pool runs up to the FF8 event that we just had at the beginning of February. Selections look like they go up to the FF12 event last August.
Yes, you should be able to stack Riku ultra and Awakening. You should get follow-up attacks from both. Yes, that should be super disgusting. Especially if you have a dark chain active.

Sadly, no dark chain, unless I can pick one up from one of those 500 gem things. Squad goals and all that.

Did my two free 40 pulls.
6/40, 5 (!) Discos.
Papa Glint
Tidus OSB (Dupe)
Aranea USB
King USB
Krile bUSB
Lenna USB2 (Dupe)
5/40, 3 Discos.
Selphie BSB1 (lol)
Cyan BSB1 (non-elemental?! how old is this)
Galuf USB1
Galuf Chain!
Papa AOSB
I am supremely satisfied with this. With the extra Papa and Krile tech, I should be able to sub-30s Manticore now, and I can probably make a run at sub-30s Quetz with Galuf now. King might shake up my Famfrit team? Edgar is already LD'ed though.
This also shores up my FF5 Torment part 3 Earth team quite well, and gives me options to possibly try Fire as well. I think this also gets me clears of the FF14 and 15 Torment part 3s. King definitely makes my Type-0 Torment team, though I still need a medica for that realm.
Last question: I already have Tidus's OSB +Water sword, as well as a 6* +Water Fist and Thrower. Do I:
a) Keep the +Water swords seperate
b) combine the +Water swords
c) vault the 6* to turn into a rainbow shard later
Will probably do the Wondrous Draw later, but put off the pick until the last moment, per usual. I still need to do KH banner 1 pulls at some point as well.
I'd keep the second water sword for now, and maybe combine it later. Four DPS is a thing, and also depending on what SBs you have it can be tough to deploy the water fist and thrower at the same time.
I wouldn't shard any 6* weapons with a native boost unless you're just drowning in them. Water swords are usable by Sora (with Stormspell Strike) Paine, Tidus, and Bartz, so there's always the chance of needing more than one.

Sephiroth LMR - EnDark and I have ASB, USB2 and Dive.
Cloud ASB (Dupe) - This is a good +Wind Sword so a nice dupe!
Shantoto ASB - Total happiness when I saw the dark staff pop up! Have her USB/BSB/SSBX2/Glint/LMR/Dive
40 Draw 2 - 5/40 3 rainbows and 2 disco
Gilgamesh BSB (Dupe)
Tidus Glint - Have Chain/USB/OSB/BSB1/SSB/Dive so at very least it's +10 atk.
Seymour BSB2 - okay.
Nine USB - Seems fine and it is a realm I don't have much in general.
Lenna USB - Large Medica, Last Stand and Barrier - I'm happy with new healer USBs for the neo torments.
Second pull was unremarkable but it had Ignis USB which was new
Select got me Basch USB2
Waifu Lightning Pull and Ice Chain!!!!
2 discos.
Sora AASB -- Two Become One, 6 star Keyblade. 15 Ranged Fire, Lightning, Ice, Non elemental attacks, buff Fire/Lightning/Ice levels by 3, Temporarily grant them Awoken Spellblade Mode, Increase their Cap Break Level by 1, and cause every 3rd spellblade ability they use to trigger the follow-up ability Blitz. Awoken Spellblade: Unlimited use of Spellblade abilities, Moderate spellblade ability boost, and Spellblade abilities trigger twice. Aka the "Fuck you and your elemental resistances" stick.
Riku USB -- Way to the Dawn, 6 star Keyblade. 10 ranged physical dark and non elemental attacks, EnDark, lower mind raise attack moderate, cause dark abilities to trigger Darkhand Scourge, dealing 5 physical dark and non elemental attacks to one target.
So yeah, I got both KH Awakenings, apparently, and now have Riku's Awakening, Glint, and USB.
Riku's AASB, Glint, and USB all uh... they link up pretty well, don't they? Awakening is a huge dark ability on it's own, gives him infinite dark abilities that trigger twice, causes a follow-up dark attack after each one, and the USB... also causes another follow-up that does 5 dark and non-elemental after each dark ability. Don't know if they stack. I don't get what his Glint does exactly, but it seems like it either EnDark or Dark attack powerup... and has a powerchain effect. Because what he really needs during all this is extra turns.
... What's this about "Materia" dungeons and elemental weaknesses? Is there a Dark one of those? And uh, fire, given the other stuff I got today?
I still haven't even done the Wondrous or the Full Throttle, since I don't know what to aim for with the bonuses for them. Or the Acolyte draws. (Which are free?) Or any of the discounted Realm draws.
The Wondrous draw pool runs up to the FF8 event that we just had at the beginning of February. Selections look like they go up to the FF12 event last August.
Also I picked Mogs USB from the wonder wonder draw because I wanna do that Torment
Sadly, no dark chain, unless I can pick one up from one of those 500 gem things. Squad goals and all that.
Ceodore BSB (dupe)
Nabaat LMR (w-cast, neat for magic imperil dark)
Free 40-1 - 4/11, two discos
Xezat BSB (dupe, but +ice ATK armor!)
Lann LMR (en-fire but lolBeyond)
Terra BUSB (sweet, better than her USB1 if tranced)
Kain USB (no idea if I can even fit him in but damnit I'ma try)
Free 40-2 - 5/11, two discos
Aerith BSB2 (dupe)
Guy BSB (not too useful compared to Dorgann)
Emperor Glint (the hell? Bar-lightning on a glint?)
Agrias OSB (dupe)
Shadow USB (hot damn, and I just got his en-dark LMR, too)
Not sure what I'll pick for my USB yet, but that's not a bad haul at all!
6/40, 5 (!) Discos.
Papa Glint
Tidus OSB (Dupe)
Aranea USB
King USB
Krile bUSB
Lenna USB2 (Dupe)
5/40, 3 Discos.
Selphie BSB1 (lol)
Cyan BSB1 (non-elemental?! how old is this)
Galuf USB1
Galuf Chain!
Papa AOSB
I am supremely satisfied with this. With the extra Papa and Krile tech, I should be able to sub-30s Manticore now, and I can probably make a run at sub-30s Quetz with Galuf now. King might shake up my Famfrit team? Edgar is already LD'ed though.
This also shores up my FF5 Torment part 3 Earth team quite well, and gives me options to possibly try Fire as well. I think this also gets me clears of the FF14 and 15 Torment part 3s. King definitely makes my Type-0 Torment team, though I still need a medica for that realm.
Last question: I already have Tidus's OSB +Water sword, as well as a 6* +Water Fist and Thrower. Do I:
a) Keep the +Water swords seperate
b) combine the +Water swords
c) vault the 6* to turn into a rainbow shard later
Will probably do the Wondrous Draw later, but put off the pick until the last moment, per usual. I still need to do KH banner 1 pulls at some point as well.
There's not enough inventory!
