Nuebot posted:So has it all been mathed out whether daily pulls or an 11 pull is better? Daily is more lapis-efficient, 11-pull is more likely to get you a 4* or 5*. You also get a fixed number of daily pulls vs. an unlimited number of lapis pulls.

Nuebot posted:So has it all been mathed out whether daily pulls or an 11 pull is better? 5000/11 = approximately 454 Lapis per pull. One (1) of those is a gold crystal, guaranteed, but that means just about nothing as everything in the gacha is 4*-capable. Daily pull = 250 Lapis per pull. Until the gacha rehaul hits, there is absolutely no reason to do 11-pulls unless you want a hail mary to try to grab a banner's chaser right before it ends.

Going back to exceed ring talk, is there really no one on jp with an exceed ring yet? I mean, there's gotta be someone, right? Maybe there's some secret check where the more you have of the materials, the less chance there is for the rest of them to drop.

Thus, whatever guaranteed 4*s/5*s you get will actually be units of at least decent worth.

I'm sure there's someone, but it was mentioned on in some reddit thread that they're hard to craft even for whales because one of the materials is a low % drop from crafting one of the components.

So they don't have equal drop rates? I guess global does have the advantage of foresight. I doubt most of jp had much megacrysts/hero rings/trophies when it first came out. A lot of the trophies can't just be whaled either. Hell, even megacrysts farming can't be whaled. Still gotta collect those crysts yourself.

I need a bunch of them right now to get my Ingus up, hopefully in time to beat Maxwell. By the way, can anyone lend me a CoD/DKC/Elza with dual weild/600+ atk and Diabolos for the Maxwell fight? ID is 199923797.

WebDO posted:I can't clear Maxwell with Mylan or Fenrir, does anyone else have a better unit? This is sad. Any dual wielding CoD, especially one dual wielding a combination of Rising Sun/Lunar Pestle is better than most buff Lightning/Elza units for killing Maxwell. 450-500ish atk CoD, especially with Diablos, is just a shitload of Maneater damage on an easily chained single hit skill and with more durability due to the extra 50% light resist (or 0, if they use diablos for yet more damage).

SquirrelGrip posted:sacred crystals I burned through a couple (10 or so) of Lapis energy refreshes, and did the INT Awakening dungeon, got enough to awaken Cecil and Refia to 5 stars.

I used Xyvious' CoD, with a Cecil, Agrias, my own CoD, Refia and Lightning. The secret was to keep Embolden and Focus up, Maxwell Full Broken, and The trick is to balance survivability with damage. You kind of need two healers and a breaker.

Maxwell fight is cool and good. I didn't want those Phoenix downs and elixirs anyway. This was my closest one yet but even if I got him I was nowhere near summoning diabolos. Friend unit was a 500 attack Elza that almost carried me to victory. Almost!

Went in with VoGoR's Elza and Maxwell went down in round 2, so that's the no KOs mission cleared. I don't think I'll go for the finish with a Limit mission. 10k karma just isn't worth the headache and potential NRG wasted if I fail.

Did they nerf Dark Knight Cecil or something without telling anyone? Because suddenly he's eating up like 3k+ of his own health to use his good moves when he wasn't before, and he was already max level and none of his equipment has been changed.

There was this post on reddit https://www.reddit.com/r/FFBraveExvius/comments/5bh09x/dual_wield_in_all_its_forms/d9ohrxh/ that says no one has them. In there it links to some of the twitter accounts for the top three whales in JP. If this guy https://twitter.com/FF_ChromeHearts/status/797510229554438144 (note two of those are 5* bases and the other is a 4* base) doesn't have any then good luck.

I'm pretty sure I'll be able to get Maxwell on my next attempt (5th). I was doing great with WoL, DK Cecil with barrage, Lenna stacked with HP, CoD, Lightning, and a friend CoD. Then Endless happened and I didn't block. Everyone was at full health, Maxwell had fullbreak applied with no attack boost, and I had protectga and shell up. Everyone but the friend CoD and WoL died. It was awful. Edit: I could easily beat her if I weren't trying to summon, which I did manage to do before endless happened.

You should have CoD put up omni-veil for Endless. It's helpful to have it up as much as you can, but it's huge for Endless. When I went back and cleared for the 10k Karma I actually pushed her past the threshold because I badly misjudged the damage I'd do that round and since I have full break, Focus, and omni-veil all going the most damage anyone took was probably 2-2.5k and without omni running I'd have probably lost most of my team.

Oh that's the other thing, I did have omni veil up. Endless is just disgusting with its damage if you're not guarding.

Yes... "crashes." As long as you can keep Full Break, Enbolden/Cheer and Focus active, and remember to Mr. Swoon posted:Finally got Maxwell. I had no trouble killing her, but there is no reasonable way to evoke Diabolos without Rydia or Garnet in your party. Use Barrage/reset the app if you don't get at least two summon orbs a round.

Thanks to Fenrir's CoD I managed to beat Maxwell and also get the summon achievement thing as well as there no KOs somehow. Oh and my game crashed like six times. Hopefully I don't get banned for it but uh, I can't really see someone unlocking Maxwell without that happening unless they have an absolutely perfect team.

Just got maxwell down with the Diablos summon, been a mad rush leveling my new CoD to help with the fight. Unexpected bonus where a Kain with barrage was my best second attacker is that his Jump landing to break the 30% threshold lets me guard with everyone for the Endless to leave me with enough alive to finish her off.

Well-rounded (ie- tanky and with a solid Healer) or Dualcast. You can bury Maxwell under Curajas/ability to raise two people per turn and still Curaja. Dualcast Refia was honestly my single most important unit in the fight, above and beyond my attackers or tanks.

I managed to get Maxwell down but uh, I got like no limit or summon bar with this process. Least I got the no KO dark res thingy. But I got and train RAIDEN of mist so I know I can do the evocation one, just need practice and patience.

Survivability is the key to getting Maxwell. Well, that and gaming the system a bit. I was able to get the No KOs/Diablos objectives after a bit of an ordeal with CoD/Rydia/Agrias/Lenna/Tilith/friend CoD. The two CoDs basically just timed Call of the Void as the primary source of damage. Agrias kept up Full Break as needed and fed Elixirs/Turbo Ethers to Tilith as needed, Tilith alternated between Rainbow Veil and Celestial Light, Lenna spammed Curaja, and Rydia loaded up with defensive abilities and equipment just drank a Hyper and straight attacked to try and build up her limit/summon gauge as quickly as possible. If you have Rainbow Veil/Celestial Light/Full Break up basically at all times (and force-close to avoid her 4th round attacks), you can hang around for a really long time, with the catch being that Tilith can't really afford to spend a turn healing, so you need someone else capable of that.

As for what you need Drink to chug down: Body Boost, Mana Boost, Protect Drink, Shell Drink, Hero Drink, and maybe Bacchus Wine? I'm not sure on that last one.
