I followed the steps to unlock the challenge version of King Mog and it didn't work. Anybody had success doing it and what specifically did you do?

I unlocked it. Turn 1 Play with him and guard with everyone else. That will unlock Insult King Mog. Then just kill him as normal after insulting him.

In my 10+1 super pull, I got a Reberta and Greg. Greg is supposed to be pretty nice with his enhancement, right?

I thought I remembered reading Reberta will chain with Orlandu. Is that right, or did I make that up?

Anyone able to unlock the secret raid stage yet? I did dance > insult with the whole party and nada.

Edit: Nevermind, I did it wrong:

For anyone who is still unaware, entering the Elt Mog King raid battle and selecting the "King's Play" ability unlocks "Royal Bad Mouth". Spamming this move until mog king leaves unlocks The Mog King's Counterattack.

You guys are right. I shouldn't be salty about pulling her as she's a pretty dope unit. I guess I had WAY too high hopes of pulling a Gilgamesh or Ramza. :p

You'll be really, really glad you have T.Terra when we get to the trials that need non-elemental magic damage. And those are coming. Also she is probably the most survivally of the mages post-enhancements. You got a good unit, but yeah, I know, it doesn't FEEL like it.

Also guys, Setzers, please. :(

Now that WoL can take Cecil and Rain's spot, what should my main party be? Olive and WoL are gimmes, and the other possibilities are:

* Trance Terra
* Rikku
* DC Refia
* Like every other white mage
* DW Cheezo
* 3 Setzers

Is the boss in the ELT woods broken? It says it's supposed to change it's elemental type but the debuff goes away at the end of it's turn so is the idea that it's always just immune to elemental attacks? Either way, I'm loving glad I brought Trance Terra.

Did close to 70 pulls (43 tickets, free 10+1, lapis 10+1, free pull) and got FIVE Rikkus, but I'm chasing Tidus. My best damage dealer is Setzer or Greg. At least with Rikku and Tilith and a WoL I have top tier support, heals, and tanking now!

Well, guaranteed 5* pull for me a Lightning, so I set my expectations low for the rest of it, but then the free pull got me a Noctis and the 10+1 for me another Trance Terra. Could have gone better, could have gone much worse.

i got Eileen. no Rikku, but i did get an Amelia, and Agrias 7, 8, and 9. that's how many i have now, not lifetime Agrias pulls.

Greg becomes a legit chainer with his enhancements. Only weakness he has is that he doesn't have innate imperils baked into his attacks.

Super important unless you can find another way of giving her earth element into her attacks. That way you dont waste a turn doing groundwork to get earth element for the natural imperil on her piledriver. It becomes even more important post enhancements because she gets 50% extra attack when she has a spear on and you need to give her a katana,sword or GS to maximize damage with materias.

vvvv
I need to 6* another Eileen as well as WoL and Rikku. I had surplus of king cactuars, not anymore. And without an easy moogle exchange event I wont have enough materials for them either.

weeeeeeeeeelp threw my remaining tickets at the FFX banner, got 2 wakkas and a TIDUS.

lots of poo poo to 6* now (rikku, tidus, wol...) and I have to completely rework my team.

Tidus is a good finisher, yea? should I pull Noctis out of my main lineup and team Tidus up with two chainers? (best I currently have are 3 chizurus and 3 setzers)

good day overall!

Ace is pretty great. Enhanced, he has 2 main roles in a team:

  • Elemental debuffer/surprise nuker
    Tribeam laser will give all targets -75% resists to Holy/Lightning/Fire elements. Combine with weapons that hit those elements for everyone else, and it is a great general damage buff. Sometimes it also kills everything outright.
  • Mana Battery
    Enhanced Spirit hand will cover the MP needs of your entire party pretty much forever. In an exploration, you can have him do this, and spam the best attacks for the rest of your party + your most potent AoE heals. This allows for a very easy Encounter -> Repeat cycle that I've grown to love.

In any other situation, he's just a good magic user in general.

Scholars are some of the most pompous and pedantic people I've ever had the joy of meeting.
Free daily pull: Bediled
Free 10+1 pull: Zyrus #2 and #3, a bunch of other junk/dupes (like Agrias # 8 or so) and my first Garland. :confuoot:
Guaranteed 5* pull: Rem! Could've been worse. I never bothered to get her gently caress You Arena materia though. :sigh:

Rikku chase time, starting at 88 tickets:
Wakka
Kuja
Wakka
Penelo
Rydia
Exdeath
GOLD! ...King (maybe I should farm a Resolve TM for Tilith or someone else?)
Wakka
GOLD! :toot: RIKKU :toot:


I still have 79 tickets and 19k Lapis. Bring on a Player's Choice whale banner.
(I'm not going to chase Tidus because I already have Olive so I'm not hurting for a finisher or damage in general)

I still cant loving believe that out of all the base 5* the game actually gave me the one I wanted and needed most. The game shat on me on the daily pull, on the free 10+1, on the 4* ticket and all the other normal ones and then 5+ 10+1 gave me not only the Eileen that I need to transition to a physical base chain meta but the Rikku I needed for support as well. I need 2 veritas of wind for their TMs, and one Mistair for the upcoming trials that need an AoE magic tank. Outside of that I really dont need anything else.

What type of enemy is Spheremorph? I put up a friend Setzer with dual wield to dice him to death but I'm not sure what killers to give him to get as much out of dice as possible. For now I just gave him as much HP and SPR as possible.

Well my guaranteed pull got me... Orlandu? I assume that's good.

And then fished RIkku out from the FFX banner. Blew a few more tickets to get Tidus but only got a Wakka to show for it.

So my current 6* units:
Lightning
Cecil
Refia
Cloud of Darkness
Exdeath
Rain

And 6* capable units:
Orlandu
Rikku
Kefka
Vaan (soon?)

I presume just pump resources into getting Orlandu and then Rikku up? Haven't played this game in months.

Orlandu is arguably the king of dps mountain. Work on getting him Excalibur and use Divine Ruination with a friend Orlandu and watch everything melt. DR inflicts -50% light resist, Excalibur makes it so DR can take advantage of that light resist down, and it chains extremely well with another Orlandu also using DR. Then give him dual wield, jack up his attack, and cruise through poo poo.

After Orlandu get Rikku to max for her crazy support powers like AoE Full Life and limit break 80% auto-life.

God drat. 35 tickets, 2 of them being guaranteed 4 star, and no Rikku on this banner. Also didn't get any on either 11+1 pulls.

At least I pulled a Fryevia on my guaranteed 5 star.

Now that the game is stable I decided to finally do pulls:

Free Daily: Agrias

5* 10+1:
5* Marie! Not bad, but not really changing my teams much. At least Rainbow Robe is good to have.
Exdeath x2
Helrich (new but eh)
Celes
Charlotte
Ulrica
Edge
Lawrence
Nine
Zidane (usually good but I have so many and 3 dual wields already)

Free 10+1:
Setzer (I have 3 maxed and been squishing the rest so :geno: )
Maria
Cyan
that successor kid
Firion (after Bahamut these guys have become exp fodder)
2x Freya
Lenna
Dwayne
Garnet (after squishing my old ones I gotta save her now)
Xiao
:rip:

So no Rikku and since there's no half price on banner pulls I might as well blow my 40 tickets chasing her now:
Zyrus (like Firion exp fodder)
Wakka (new but lol wakka)
Vaan
Anzelm
Hayate
Soleil
Luka
Kain (I think I only pulled one on Bahamut's banner)
Fran
Kefka
Celes
Rikku! Well at least pulling her didn't become too awful.

Still mostly a wet fart for 40 pulls. Marie and Rikku and the rest for squishing. But the BF banner is still up, I got 28 tickets left, and I still haven't pulled Tilith sooooo

The event is still up so grind away.

That's what I'm doing because I decided to sit down and see how many of these enhancement mats I was going to need and my eyes nearly popped out of my head. So now I'm back to killing Vargas.

I was on the ball for awakening mats this time. I grinded 100 of each mat last night in preparation for this glorious day! I even took advantage of the extra unit space we recently got to fill my inventory with Cacutars at the beginning of the week.

They're offset but otherwise have the same frame data. Orlandu has nearly twice the startup time. They chain together perfectly if you get the delay timing right

E: might change for DW. I don't have either so I can't test the ability overlap delay for firing off two

Congratulations!
Been doing a little light rerolling all week and ramped it up when I woke up and the free 11-pull was available. I don't think I've ever seen a more ballbusting gacha in a mobile game in my life.

I've seen a grand total of one rainbow orb in probably a good 40+ rerolls by now. Your odds of ever getting another one after your starting pulls have to be vanishingly small. :stare:
