Orran's burst is fun. I just need to strike a balance between having him do bard stuff and having him spam that powerchain heal. Maybe if I team him up with Elarra and have her do Bard stuff in between USBs...
Would you believe I equipped him with Gathering Storm without noticing how that would be funny?
He uses it so well, is the thing.

Cleaned out the BFC of useful stuff. Only had to clear the final two bosses twice extra. Then polished off the Realm Dungeon update, and channeled two stamina refreshes into orbs.
That's about my tolerance for difficulty right now. It still took an afternoon to do all that.
Well, not all of them. Crush Armor, Counter Tackle, and Northswainβs Strike are just moves. King Apparent and Hero-King are descriptions of Delita. Recent moves seem to follow that theme.
Man going for The Valiant and Somebody to Love well...probably missed out on a cool Awakening name. I don't think The Meager or The Manipulator and The Subservient work lol
edit: oh! his Glint is Requiem for the Meager so...I guess that only leaves Chapter 2?
edit2: man I want to make Delita work but seeing how much motes he takes (Knight and Spellblade!!!). DeNA gimme job motes!
If it helps, Delita isnβt really Knight focused. He can do it, and his soul breaks do often contain Holy, but his legend Dive gives him dualcast Spellblade, so thatβs probably the way to go with him.
Oh wow, JP players are getting a mountain of mythril and free draw tickets, proportional to the number of days they have logged in, for fifth anniversary. Day 1 players are actually getting a pretty good payout, makes up a little for all those 0/11 draws. Scaling rewards for everyone though, whenever they started.
IIRC, I started just before first anniversary, so if global gets the same rewards, I would end up getting something like 90 mythril and eight free 11x draws.
Fry on

Finally I have a reply when my wife asks me why I play a game that plays itself most of the time.
"Well at least FFRK gives me a pension."
Then I quickly change the subject and/or knock over a chair and flee the room.

When did dog surfboard come out? Maybe Iβm remembering the wrong event. I had some mythril to blow on the dog surfboard fest. That was right before the first ultimate I think? I got Lenna Medica there too. My first five star was a water resist no SB armor from X, my first SB item was defender IX. Oh but I have the pumpkin and witch hat so I must have been there for October.

Played since the first week, but not the first day. I cleared the very first event, Tifa/Sephiroth, barely in time, because I had to level up mages and farm orbs for Thunder/Thundara for the multiple ranged only bosses at the end of the event.
Orranβs been fun to play around with, but I do seriously need to boost his HP. Right now his defenses are so bad that to call them paper-like would be an insult to the Durai Papers.
So I'm two in a row for Daily dupes, combined with two in a row of LoTR dupes. Not the best way to start the week, but at least I'm getting rainbow crystal fodder?

I started at the start of October according to this. It was Auron+Kimhari. Then it was Vayne and Ashe. I remember I had to use Ashe as my white mage for months.

oh! Looking at this list (and my stack of pictures) I must've quit around August 2015 and then came back by oh...Ultras were a thing back then. It must've been maybe 2017-2018?
Looking into some upcoming abilities (and updating my crystal desires, which is KILLING me because I've updated all black magic to R5 because awakenings (not that I have a magic one) and OH LORD I NEED BLACK CRYSTALS)....ANYWAY.
Rousing Stance: +50% ATK/DEF self 5s, HP stock 2k, Monk High QC1.
..is this even USEFUL? It's basically a "self 2k stock, make your next attack hit harder and faster." Maybe as a lead-in for a monk-typed SB cast? But why use an ability slot for that?

Yeah, the only way I can see Rousing Stance being useful is if you want to spend a turn on Tifa's Synchro-Defend command to power up. You can only have one Earth Ironfist and that's going to be paired with her Synchro-Attack, and the next best earth monk attack (Earthen Rebuke) is a fair bit worse than Earth Ironfist.
Another ability question: How many chain *ga abilities do you guys have?
Now that we're at the point where we have one 6* for each element and one 6* which covers the element with a multi-element one, having two *gas seems overkill. Kinda considering going on a shattering spree.

25 mythril just seems like a lot at this point for no shots at an AASB or chain. I was going to pull because an Arcane would help against Odin, but it would have to be from a very small set of characters and I think its just too risky. Especially when there are 11 draws at 15 mythril. I think realm draws should refresh right after the fest?

I think two gas is reasonable, sometimes you have four DPS, sometimes it's an Odin with more Skill Slash than others. More than two is starting to look a bit suspect, though.

Prompto LMR dupe/3
I have 4 items from this realm. I have dupes of all of them somehow.
2/11 both discoes
Steiner Realm Chain
Ramza Holy Chain
Lightning remains gen0 only. Holy I've graduated from gen1 to gen2, which I'm PERFECTLY FINE with. Steiner still sucks but a 30/30/haste realm chain for IX works well because my strong characters are kinda split between physical and magical, to be fair.
I think I actually wouldβve been disappointed if Iβd got Ignisβs Burst so soon after trying Orran. Wouldnβt have been enough to stop me using it, but
Turns out, Deuce with Gathering Storm, Curada, legend dive, and SSB is enough healing for the Type 0 Torment if you're on a sub 30 pace. Blinking Ultimas is Real Good.
Edit: oh jeez, I just realized I never bothered getting Queen into trance mode, that probably would have helped.

....I definitely remember playing when Shout and BSB were released, which according to the timeline last year BSBs were within the first year, so....?
Well, regardless, I should hit the 90 mythril tier, although I'm not sure how many tickets I'll get.
e: First event I explicitly remember was October 2015, so that'll probably be it. I'm probably 1500 days tier, MAYBE 1600 days.
That'd be January 2β12, 2016, which I think puts you in the upper 1400s by the time the event rolls around.

I think they made it go with Tifa's Synchro.

I think it's Physical USB, Magical USB and AOSB.
edit: I'm actually thinking that maybe pulling on lucky AOSB might not be a bad idea. Then again I could go 1/11 for a character I have nothing on.

3 for 3 on dupes, yea baby!
XV - Aranea USB. That's a lot better than I expected from this dead-end realm.
i now have more copies of prompto usb and noctis osb than i have soul breaks in 15.
ugh.

1/3, Gladiolus LMR (w-cast Knight)! Not a dupe! I'll take it!
