Even elite dungeon rewards are never quite at the level of 3x major orbs, but at least 1x is progress on such a front. Since the dungeon information sheet listed in the OP is rapidly becoming out of date, and Enlir's sheet doesn't have some of the cool features like filtering or bang-for-your-buck stats, I'll probably try making up a merger of the two in order to best present the Road Map to Progress.

Panic! at Nabisco posted:So the Glimmer of Hope U+ is in 4 phases again, like Ultros U+, which means debuffs are canceled between each phase. I don't want to go through that torture again, so I need to hone my Full Break to r2 before I bother with it. I have more than enough MPOs, but I'm lacking ice and lightning (have 7/12 of each). Any idea how I can get five of those before the end of the event other than spamming the dailies and hoping?

I got the Aerith Burst... It seems good! The damage on a U+ boss is trivial but healing 1500 aoe every turn is so useful.

superloosegoose posted:Crystal Helm (vi)+++ as its prob the best 4 star item around with 22 Attack. Crystal Helm is definitely the best option for reforge. If you're hurting for FF5 weapon synergy, Rune Axe/Giant's Axe are great, too. Let's see, what else is good 3*/4* reforge fodder... Wyvern Claws III have +Wind, making them a good pinch synergy option for Gilgamesh or anyone looking to use Wind Slash. Hypno Crown V and Ten-Gallon Hat VIII are probably the best four-star headwear after the Crystal Helm VI. Brigandine IX if you're hurting for FF9 armor synergy (almost everybody is hurting for FF9 armor synergy), Gladius IX for FF9 weapon synergy Rune Blade I from the Mobius/Dissidia events isn't a bad option, since how else are you going to get FF1 synergy ever for those three cases where it's relevant? Basically, anything you see yourself equipping in place of off-synergy 5* stuff regularly.

I was gonna do this, then I looked at my party roster and realized that with Faris being a lock for my A-team and Zidane and Yuffie being CM mainstays I was probably better off doing Thief's Revenge R1>R3 instead. Holy poo poo Thief's Revenge is loving nuts when you can get all five hits, especially now with Mug Bloodlust.

Honestly I probably should hone Thief Revenge at some point, but Vaan has enough things to do between Breakdowns and Lifesiphon, and I don't really see Yuffie on my A-team just yet. I was going over the number of relics some of the characters have and it struck me that Quistis is part of an elite club that can get +40 to a single stat. The funny thing is that the other people in that club are Yuna, Cloud and Terra - all main characters, and then you have Quistis.

After two complete dud pulls on Selphie 1, I'm struggling to decide if I should give it one last go. I didn't get Celes BSB, so I really want Selphie's so I can have a mage buff to set my really solid mage team off. I also want Edea's SSB because it's rad as hell and I've got a soft spot for Edea because she was my first ever SSB(Ice Strike). Next stacking mage buff is Onion Knight, yes?

I actually was going to ask about this because I also have Cloud's BSB and OSB. Are there any edge cases where it would be more useful to pop the BSB (say, elemental weaknesses) or is the OSB damage so superior that it's never going to equal or surpass it?

Clouds BSB is nonelemental. Basically the only time you'll ever want the burst from now on is in a multitarget situation. Otherwise, the OSB is always the correct button unless you also have his EnWind SB, in which case, two bars -> SB->OSB becomes interesting.

You don't.  If you sphere up Red, you can make him a decent Black Magic user. Otherwise, it doesn't necessarily hurt to have all the necessary breakdowns at your disposal for a physical team (Power/Magic/Full/Armor).

The only time they've pushed up an event was for the XIV event, and that was only because it coincided with XIV's own anniversary. No real reason to push up Tactics, and even if they did it means some other event will end up being around Christmas. If anything, a hype banner around Christmas only helps them to get more money.

*sniffle* It's beautiful! Okay, serious time, anyone got a recommendation on an RW to bring to 180 Nemesis in JPN? I've brought Relm's BSSB both attempts, but I still can't poo poo out enough damage before he eventually overwhelms me. No chance in hell I'm doing 255, but I want to at least knock 180 down. If he didn't resist EVERYTHING, then my EnEle+OSB combos on Squall and Agrias would be enough, but alas. Here's my team: Squall Lv. 96 | Squall's OSB/Y'shtola's BSB Armor/the Secret of Mana cat ring | Lifesiphon R4/Drain Blade R4 | OSB/BSB/EnEle SB | Ace Striker Agrias Lv. 93 | Agrias OSB+/Curilla's Armor/ +ATK Ring | Lifesiphon R4/Protectga R2 | EnEle SSB/2nd BSB/OSB | Battleforged Ramza Lv. 91 | Bartz OSB/Agrias SSB Shield/ +ATK Bracer | Full Break R2/Magic Breakdown R4 | Shout | Mako Might Tyro Lv. 99 | Noel SSB/ Crystal Armor RF (V) / +ATK Bracer | Power Breakdown R4/ Armor Break R5 | SG | Dr. Mog's Teachings Y'shtola Lv. 96 | Ovelia SSB RF/Alphinaud's Coat/+MND Ring | Curaja R4/Shellga R2 | Her OP BSB | +Healing RM (don't have anything better, to my knowledge} This is my A-Team. Most everyone else isn't leveled or doesn't have a useful SB. I do have Terra's OSB/old BSB and Cid Raines and his great BSB, but Raines can only go to 80 so far and Terra's entirely elemental attack-wise. Edit: Nevermind, got him. The issue I kept running into was his piercing attack that he ended up using twice in a row. Switched out Tyro for Eiko w/ Hamelin and it was easy. Also used Alphinaud's Deployment Tactics for the damage reflect which helped a bit. FeralWraith fucked around with this message at 21:20 on Oct 8, 2016 |

Here's a list of my 4 star rares reforged: Atk/Mag/Mnd/Def/Res Crystal Helm (vi) - 22/3/0/84/74 Ten-gallon Hat (viii) - 0/21/19/45/89 Hypno Crown (v) - 0/18/18/44/87 Knights Armor (I) - 0/0/0/109/41 Black Garb (IV) - 0/0/0/80/80 Wizard Armlet (x) - 15/21/18/47/66 Silver Bangle (xiii) - 17/17/17/48/61 Crystal Bangle (vii) - 38/38/38/114/147* (realm synergy stats) Atk/Mag Crystal Sword (vi) - 90/0 Rune Axe (v) - 96/3 Metal Knuckle (vii) - 184/0* (realm synergy stats) So basically they give natural 5's a run for their money in the same realm, and in many cases outclasses them. superloosegoose fucked around with this message at 20:37 on Oct 8, 2016 |

Think I'm switching my pull on the Guy event from banner 1 to banner 2. While Firion's BSB is awesome I like the totality of banner 2 a lot better. I don't like Leon's BSB at all really now that I've looked at what it is. Plus if I get lucky and get Maria's bow, I have a Gaia Gear to boost earth damage.

Is there a datamined list of the order of future dungeons and their mastery conditions? I've pretty much got my revamped spreadsheet ready after cleaning up this one linked in the OP, and while Enlir's database has a wealth of information that I plan to put in it's still missing a few things. This slimmed down fork is what I've come up with this far; any thoughts on tweaking it or adding more data processing?

Dr Pepper posted:OK. I've expanded and edited the new OP here. I'd add a few more things under new player tips, maybe. Probably one of the first question everyone asks is "what are the best characters" and the answer is pretty much always "who you have relics for", so might as well make that very clear. Related to that, I'd also add a suggestion about running 3 DPS + healer + support (or combat 5*) as a good starting composition, since some newbies first hit a wall because they don't use mitigation.
