What are some optimal dives for tyro, onion, and iris? I’m trying to build a team around those three.

Noteworthy that OK got a new usb3 on this jp fest that pretty much makes him Bartz but magic.

Protip for Hades: he's essentially another dps race like Shadow Dragon. Black cauldron looks scary, but he doesn't do it until his 6th turn in phase 1, and until his 4th turn in phase 2 and 3. So if you have the dps to push his phases before then, you can just leave your sblinks and affliction break at home.

ApplesandOranges posted:Raijin SSB is very good, but consider how much you need the Last Stand and Instacast effect. If you can survive without Last Stand, Aphmau/Relm USBs are arguably stronger options (outside of not being able to Lifesiphon). One other advantage is that you can use the Hand of Vengeance passive to get a flat ~15% (23% if you have multiple I guess?) damage boost basically the whole fight if you're just relying on last stand to stay alive. Much more than the passive based on actually having HP. eelmonger fucked around with this message at 20:18 on Apr 18, 2018 |

My latest single pull catch just now is Rikku BSB2. An EnWater on a character with Sharpshooter 5 access is never a bad thing, especially since my water tools are lacking. Shame the relic itself is a horrendous stat stick. A shield with no ATK on it is pretty dire.

saltylopez posted:Yeah I currently have Relm USB and Noctis SSB for party instant cast and I have Edge SSB and Ovelia USB for instant Last stand. Those combined with only 69 mythril are making me unsure if it would be a good decision. Firstly: Nice mythril. Secondly: Yeah, you're good without Raijin SSB, even if only Noctis can gauge-charge (w/Lifesiphon) out of those four. The notable thing is unlike any of what you listed, Raijin's initial SSB cast isn't instant, and he lacks Celerity 5, so you'll either need to sit on his turns or wait for the 2.5 seconds any other Soul Break takes. And the only time you absolutely need to lifesiphon up Last Stands is when you're doing Radiant Shield strategies on a boss, so yeah, that's not a solution at all.

It's been a while since Global hasn't known the banner going into an event, so here's the first of the FFI banners. Just editing in the new relic details. Master seems to have been shifted over to Banner 2 to make room for Wol and Meia's relics. There's still a small chance we'll get the two chain Banner 2, but it's not very likely. Garland USB (Dark+ Sword) - 10-hit ST Dark/NE physical, Endark, Darkness Quickcycle, chase Darkness with 2-hit Dark/NE that heals 20% of damage inflicted Sarah USB - ATK/MAG +30%, Hastega, Shellga, HP Stock 2000 Wol USB - 8-hit ST Ranged Attacks, Dispel, inflicts Crash [DES/RES -70%] for 8 seconds Meia OSB - Water/NE Black Magic Overflow, Bonus damage on weakness Meia BSB - 6-hit AoE Summon, EnWater, Burst Mode
Sarah BSB (Holy+ Robe) Echo BSB2 Meia LMR - Start with Attach Water Echo LMR - 25% chance to chase Dances with 30% HP Medica Sarah LMR - 25% chance to chase Bard with Medica (cure strength like BSB Medica commands) Garland LMR1 - Simple Trance: Once per battle below 20% HP, self full heal, 25 seconds Quickcast Meia SSB - 9 ST Water/Ice/NE magical damage, self Magical Quickcast 4 pichupal fucked around with this message at 02:39 on Apr 19, 2018 |

Okay, I did a smart thing and pulled on the Dream Burst banner. I managed to get a Snow Chain! So I want to make my selection, and I'm down to a few choices: Shadow, a good burst I don't have already, and a good guy to legend dive. My dark team is fairly stacked though, and I have stuff for Edge and Kelger for my ninja needs. Reynn, an unintuitive choice, but she has a thrown magic weapon with ice boost that doesn't require synergy that would work great for Edea or Rinoa. Reynn by herself isn't great (for now, at least) Water magic, for Gogo V or Strago. My current water team is phenomenal with Tidus and Bartz alone, but what if I need water magic for those 5* star magicites down the road?

So we're going to have like 4 FF1 banners live at the same time right

Nihilarian posted:So we're going to have like 4 FF1 banners live at the same time right It's looking like just two (or three if you count the FF1 Renewal Banner). The original Mobius banners would have been way too dated anyways, so it seems they just moved all the new relics from there (and Meia's OSB) to Banner 1, and shifted Master to banner 2, which we still don't know about. Hopefully we still keep WoL and Garland's chains on Banner 2, but here's the safest bet of what'll be on that banner:
6* Relics are limited to: Garland OSB, Chain; WoL OSB, USB, Chain edit: played with process of elimination a bit to fill in some blanks pichupal fucked around with this message at 02:52 on Apr 19, 2018 |

wizard on a water slide posted:That's odd. I have no clue whether I think these are cool or terrible. Sarah LMR is legit a solid pull, given that she has Bard 5* (and thus 6*/Allegro Con Moto) access and a purely buff-minded USB. Slot her in on a magicite team as a buffer with the stacking 5* Bardsong of choice (and AcM, if you're running a mage team) and she can be the difference between needing a second healer or not. Echo LMR is basically Mog/Penelo LM2 but worse, on a character with worse relics than Mog or Penelo. It's not bad in a vacuum, especially since it's a fixed amount of healing, but the reality is that you'll never have much reason to use it.

2 frankenbanners will probably be better than what we would have gotten from 4 so I approve. Should only have 1 dupe apiece as well, maybe I'll pull on both

Though you need to weight it with our next fest 1 banner which will also have two chains - and imo a much better relic pool overall.

He has a second mage buff usb too - but his bsb should still be fine for magic teams.

Vessel of Fate is good for magic, melee or a mix since its +30% attack AND magic, it stacks with the USBs. The commands hold up solidly in the damage department as well since it gives instacast and synergizes with his record dives.

If you have OK's physical USB then it looks like going physical would give you a stronger team based on the information we have so far. Also if you're building the rest of the team around Tyro and Iris, then can we presume you have Iris bsb and Tyro's godwall relic?

I’m not certain what precisely I have dps elsewhere because there’s no trainer that helpfully lists stuff.

So, just started playing a few days ago, I'm doing realm dungeons (also did some of the event dungeons for a change of pace), should I be spreading leveling out and level everyone up, such as adding people into their specific realm record for the XP boost, or are there specific characters I should definitely level up as soon as I get them? Also, it seems really loving ezpz so far, I can basically put auto fight on until a boss and then hit boss with weakness (if needed) and master everything, i assume once I get out of the realm stuff (or go to expert mode) it gets harder?

Anyone want to help me make a last minute decision on OSB select? I already have TGCid and can sub30 the 4*s, so I'm mostly looking to improve my coverage for 5* magicite and savage mode: Maria: Relevant character for a rare element. Rydia: Covers multiple elements and can en-element 2 of them, also has dual-cast LM2. Gladio: Rare element, but not sure how useful he is since he can only en-element and heavy/knight spam. +Fire sword is nice though. Sephiroth: I can pick up his en-fire unique in the LoG, letting him cover 2 elements, plus he has a trance LM2. Raines: Great finisher, but maybe his BSB spam is enough? Covers 2 elements. Vayne: Would cover both physical and magic dark, have his BSB and LMR. Very nice stat stick too.

Vayne OSB is the best stat stick by a pretty wide margin. Raines and TGC can use it, depending on whether you need physical or magical dark dps.

For realm dungeons and events just use whoever, the grunt of your xp will come from power up dungeons once you are at that point. Who to focus will also largely depend on what relics you'll pull. Though Cloud, Tyro and Olreandu are good candidates for leveling up anyway due to the record materia they drop. Realm dungeons will remain an auto battle thing until some of the very late expert ones, but yep there's actual challenge to be had in nightmares/torments/magicides and at the top tier of the weekly events.

The early stuff is going to be a pushover, and pretty much can stay a pushover if you keep on top of it (though I joined shortly before one of the 4-a-year fests so got a lot of freebies, so mileage may vary), until the top end. Even just starting you can go pretty far in the base mythril tiers of event dungeons, particularly using roaming warriors with strong stuff for the d100-ish ones. That should be a main target for beginners (aside from getting stamina shards off the normal dungeons) because they're time-limited, will usually give a full roster of characters for a realm (at least for the ones that don't have twenty guys), and are a generous source of mythril and level-cap crystals even at the early stages. As for characters, main priority is going to go toward anyone you get relics for. Some are better than others, but for a beginner there are no bad relics (don't go crazy chasing some endgame new hotness, there'll be another one by the time you get there). That said there are sometimes bad banners to pull on, but the thread tends to discuss them when they come out, and nothing is so terrible you can't go for your favorite characters aside from the bleeding endgame. The power progression in this game is pretty much: --autoattack to victory --start crafting/earning abilities (the current event dungeons can be very generous in this respect if you can get high enough, they usually give a 5* skill or two in the 120-ish tier) --get SBs that synergize with particular skills/elements or parties (stat buffs/debuffs, elemental chasers, et cetera), start building teams to force-multiply --get enough of a stable of characters that you can build teams to pinpoint-target whatever the boss is weak to Bruceski fucked around with this message at 21:37 on Apr 19, 2018 |

MF_James posted:I do have 50 mythril (more than that actually) which banners are good to pull right now? Actually, look for the "Realm Dungeon Lucky Draw". It's half-price and you get a random assortment of relics from a few set realms, one of which is much more modern than the others. It's a pretty good deal for a newcomer. Just avoid the things that literally say Newcomer.
