Does it make sense to burn the 10+1 ticket now or should I wait for a "good" banner?

Ticket has no rate up, but its still possible to get a new unit using one, so use it unless you want to hoard for any possible chance at a specific unit or dont have any non rainbow units you actually care about pulling at this moment.

Yeah, but it takes a lot of RNG to even get the setup right to get it that high and then you need the FD to roll high, but when it does, hot drat.

I was salty as gently caress when I pulled FV chasing DV. But after having gotten to use him (a lot) during the current raid, I'm in love. He's a cool guy that does cool things.

Same. I think I've broken 10mil total damage a few times but I've been over 9m a bunch (due to high dice rolls). With the +100% atk buff from Minfilia VoF goes up to 704atk.

Fixed Dice is definitely nice when it rolls in your favor but when it rolls bad it's rough. I might be able to break 1200atk on Olive now with Amelia's TM, so it's nice to have options.

Fixed Dice are a 2h weapon and Doublehand only adds when you have a 1h weapon with nothing in the other hand.

Pulls from the general pool.

If you wait for Ayaka, you have the same chance to pull her as any other available 5*. It’s small, but it’s not zero.

Basically if you're not already swimming in the good TM units, go nuts. The people who are waiting are (like me) the ones that really only need to pull new poo poo. I think the only units I can pull at this point that won't be instantly relegated to "helping me speed farm" or "another 5%" are of course (most of) the 5* base units, Ingus and Grace. Everything else I don't give a drat about.

I believe the entirety of that comment is speculation on Reddit. The only thing I've seen is Refia 6* and "enhancements batch 8" mentioned in November. 0 details as to what's being enhanced.

E: vvvvv oh ok. New to me. Well here's hoping

Do the relics refresh every month or something? I want to get that Adventurer's Spyglass but it looks like it takes 1,200 relics?

There's three sets of rewards from expeditions: Completing an expedition which gives you the item/pot/etc. and relics, the weekly reward of lapis, a summon ticket, king HP/LB pot, and a 5% moogle which is just how many relics you got that week, and the adventurer 1-5 materia which you craft via the relics you got. The weekly rewards don't cost anything, it's just a counter. The relics you earn you keep and use them as the material to craft the adventurer materia.

If you're not in the Twolandeu Club or the 2 Dark 2 Veritas club, being able to chain with those guys is a game changer.

Olive or another finisher is better if you've got two Divine Ruination chainers.

During an event either a useful max level and geared bonus unit or for raids a damage dealer equipped with any esper and gear and materia for killer weaknesses.

In general a chainer or finisher is highly useful if theres nothing else going on. Story events i love both since Olive is great for kill with LB mission requirements and that frees up a spot on my team.

But last week i pulled a third Orlando so I really only need a finisher now usually.

Most people do not have two Twolandeus or 2 Dark 2 Veritas, therefore an Orlandeu chainer is the better choice for more people.

Really all anyone needs is an Agrias and they can then chain with your friend unit TGC. Is there a better budget chain setup? You can throw most DPS units on top of that to be a finisher.

I finally got around to doing some of those story character trials and I kind of regret it because this equipment is garbage and wastes limited equipment slots. Also lasswell's trial sucks. Double also; most of this raid's crafted equipment seems really bad? Am I missing something or is this stuff just lame?

The story character trial equipment is good though?

Also, the raid only has a few good things like the hat with evade on it, the shield with +HP%, the dagger with +HP%, and Shantotto's unique gear if you're planning on chaining with her. Shark Gun is a good mid tier gun if you don't have TM guns as well, and Slick Dart is good for Soleil.

Is it? I'm probably dumb because outside of my tank, I basically just base gear on whether or not it adds attack and how much.

The highlights are a katana with 92 ATK and a greatsword with 90 attack, those are just below TMs in power which is fantastic for people who don't have any TMs completed yet. Laswell's Clothes aren't too shabby either with +10 ATK and decent Def/Spirit.

Fina's gear is also great for equipping her, and she's a decent free healer.

So, after reading this post I decided to go ahead and spend the 10+1 I had, and while I didn't get any 5s (still no 5* chainer/finisher), I did get an Aria finally. Just in time after I finished enhancing Luka! Whoops. Have to read up on which is better.
