Hey Dana, I took your waifu out to dance while leveling my Tellah...  Ice blitz elemental chains are hilarious. Tellah's sitting back there watching, throwing singles in the air like "drat, girl put in work"

Exdeath is the better 6* mage, right? Maybe I'll just not give a gently caress about his LB and level him up already so I have the dude ready for new content. My tentative mage team once 6* are out will be Kefkax3/Exdeath/Terra or Kefkax2/Exdeath/Terra/Vaan. I have too many Kefkas please send help. Also god I need to get rid of this Krile ASAP she's cramping my style.

Exdeath at 6* natively learns Magic Killer Passives, Dualcast, Meteor, a Light Magic version of Meteor that hits harder, and an Earth version of the current -ga level spells. So yes.

Trilin posted:Power creep applies to 3* characters too - but they just obviously won't be on the level of 6* characters. ^ This, very much. Between new 3* bases, unit upgrades (almost all for 3* bases), the story units, loot from story content, trials, and espers, the game does try to give you just enough to get by even if your pull luck is abysmal. Consider that, with just the story units, you have a 4-person team with Cheer, Focus, and Power Break. You can kit the story units out fairly well, too. Get your espers to 2*, make your hero rings, clear those trials, make +stat materia (maybe a Cura for Rain). Right now, you could get Lasswell to 290+ Atk and Rain to 260+ Def and kit both with enough abilities to be functional. Yeah, the grind for all that is a bit of a pain. But it's just for if you have literally no luck on pulls and have nothing better than the story units to build up. And if you pull better units later, most of the stuff you grinded up boosts them, too. But yes, it -is- very frustrating to keep pulling trash along the way to getting better units. This is, after all, video game slot machines. It's designed to make you keep pulling. 6*s are extremely pretty.

The light ability is identical to Ultima, not Meteor, it's also a skill so he can use it while silenced, though that probably means he can't dual cast it. Yea, his 6* form is ridiculous. CoD 6* is pretty nuts too, and can finally equip materia.

She becomes a solid nuker and amazing healer and can pull both duties at once. Rydia and Kain get good 5* upgrades very soon, too (3~5 banners/weeks, at a guess). Rydia gets solid caster stats, Meteor, and even +60% Evo Mag for comedy's sake. Kain basically just gets really good Atk, but pre-Barrage TM his Jumps do hit quite hard.

Krile right now is a pretty nice flex damage dealer/healer considering she can Dualcast already. It's just she's very fragile and probably is better replaced by someone else until she hits 5*. But man, I am definitely looking forward to Krile Dualcasting Curajas or Aerogas when she gets upgraded.

Shantotto has a really good kit with almost no defense and 4* stats. I can see her becoming a pretty good mage at 5* if she gets W-Magic and some extra nukes. I also have three of the little assholes.

Yeah, very few characters have native Dualcast for all magic schools. Even Exdeath and Vivi only get Dual Black Magic. Once Krile has non-poo poo skills to use with Dualcast, she becomes a fantastic support unit, probably better than Tellah and Terra.Trilin posted:Power creep applies to 3* characters too - but they just obviously won't be on the level of 6* characters. This, basically. The thing about 5* units (aka base 3*/4* units) is that they do get powercreeped upwards, but they're always going to lag behind 6*s in the numbers game, so they generally make better utility mages and support characters than damage dealers or tanks. As long as you don't expect them to be making GBS threads out Lightning Ice Blitz damage, they'll do just fine. Granted, I say that and yet I know absolutely nothing about how good or bad the upcoming FF4 and FF13 5*s are, and the Brave Frontier 5*s are noticably inferior to the 5*s we have already so they aren't the greatest example. EDIT: dangerous.hotdog posted:Have you guys ever looked at Shantotto's kit? I took a look out of curiosity and it's loving impressive. If only she was 5/6*. Counterpoint: She's the one "mage" type character without a single intrinsic MAG boost passive. 93 MAG is dire enough as it is, but combine that with the fact she doesn't boost it as she levels up... at least Vivi and Krile get doublecasting to make up for their lack of passive boosts.

I decided gently caress it and threw all my white Mega/Magicites at Ramuh. I know Carbuncle isn't too far off but whatever. Between that and the sweet Magi Robe from C-5, my Kefka is up to 362 MAG!

The really nice thing about Krile, is you can give her Bar- spells and have her put up two different elemental resistances if you need them for coverage, in one turn.

So, here's the FFBE Reddit's JP unit list. It's probably been linked in this thread before, and yeah it's probably a little bit of a pain to decipher. But this has every unit in the game in JP, listed in the order they first release (so it doesn't help determine when upgrades happen, but the GL wiki can tell you that). You can see a lot of interesting stuff in there. And I totally don't spend way more time than I should reading about units 2+ months away, nope.KataraniSword posted:Granted, I say that and yet I know absolutely nothing about how good or bad the upcoming FF4 and FF13 5*s are, and the Brave Frontier 5*s are noticably inferior to the 5*s we have already so they aren't the greatest example. Unending Unit Discussion posted:So, FF13 is probably the next banner after the remaining FFT units this Friday. It features I think 5 new units, so it miiight get split in two, but anyway. Sazh and Fang are the 3* bases. Sazh has Full Break and so he's a great draw even though he has no other real standouts. He has Curaga I guess? Gunners get bad stuff in this game. Fang is built a lot like Kain but like all non-Kains her Jump is inferior and she doesn't get anything to really make up for that loss. TL;DR Sazh is a 3* Full Breaker. Cecil/Kain/Rydia get awesome upgrades with the FF4 banner. All the other new people suck or are not 3* bases. ... somebody will tell me if/when I start  too much, right?

We'll probably get 6* Cecil in about 2 months, followed by 6* CoD the month after, then 6* Exdeath a month after that. On one hand, can't wait. On the other, I need to train their lb's anyways. Anyone know if the FF Type 0 units are worthwhile (Unit: Ace (6), Jack (5), Seven (5), Trey (5))? They're slated after ff4. If not them, then the FF3 banner right after is what I'd wait for.

I think I'll use the cactaurs to level a decent caster team. I could just take the easy way and level up 3 more Kefka's to go with my current Kefka and ExDeath but that seems so lame, having 4 Kefkas. Maybe I'll just max out Tellah and Golbez and Celes instead so that I have a cooler looking team.

Yes, 10,000 is the limit. If you try to accept more from login bonus/friend gifts, it'll give you a message that they'll be wasted if you accept them (it doesn't give this message for FP gained from taking companions into battle). I've been at 10k for about a week, pulling a 10 summon on the FP banner every day so my FP aren't wasted. I want to stay topped off until another event where you can pull Cactuars from the FP banner.

You guys are missing a zero or two there, I have 51,095 FP right now. 25 10-pulls so far and counting. By my math, 500 FP multi-pulls should be about 1 Million FP, which is...for REAL insane hoarders.

Getting closer and closer to getting done with this event. just need 5800 Aracite Shards to get my tickets...I think I can swing all of that...maybe? And I get around 40-50 shards per PRO clear...116 more clears at 50 shards each, which will probably be in the 150s if not more...and at 10 Stamina each...1160-1300+ Stamina...when my max is 56...kill me...someone kill me...end my misery now

Well, on the other end of the spectrum, think I'm going to take advantage of the great rank exp this event and try to get to rank 75+, 59 at the moment. Got all I need with auracite, so on the last day I'll probably just buy extra 6 star awakening mats

Same with the FFRK thread, before guaranteed 5* relic pulls, moaning about getting a couple sub-optimal 5* relics when others would go for multiple 11-pulls without a single one.

Gaffgarion is like Garland but no doublehand, but has a Better Darkside. If there ever was an event that you could only bring in one unit for some reason, Gaff is a good candidate. With an MP drain and a self heal (that costs 2k auracite) and life stealing limit break, good sustainability. widespread posted:So uh... is Gaffgarion good enough? Or is he only there for the TMR?
