So, I know someone said it takes a few days to get them, but has anyone else seen rewards from last week's arena yet? I still haven't. I'm wondering if the tiers being messed up screwed us all out of rewards.

Hmmm, do I kit out Buttz or do I make Exdeath silly next. So many decisions! My primary team is physical so Buttz is probably smarter, but Exdeath was my MVP unit for so long back when I first started! MVP units in order: Garland: first rare pull, carried me through a lot! Exdeath: first top tier pull. Started carrying once Garland couldn't cut it anymore. Chorizo: first natural barrage user Dracu Lasswell: First 6* unit and base 5* unit Those all have a special place in my heart!

SquirrelGrip posted:yeah i got this today I mean, he's only the best mage that Global will see for a long time. He can dual cast meteor without an TMs. I guess he's alright. Oh yea, and he gets 30% humans, birds, beasts, plants and bugs killer with all his spells. And his own version of Holy that hits all enemies and ignores 25% spirit, though it is a skill so I imagine you can't dual cast it. deathbagel fucked around with this message at 00:05 on Nov 23, 2016 |

AegisP posted:Once Excalibur #2 finishes, I'm going to have to sit down and figure out whether to keep Dual-Wield on Elza, or move it over to Bartz. Stupid Elza and her weapon equipment restrictions. Yea, only having one dual wield is a pain for me too. I think I might build up Buttz and slap it on him, then just put all 4 Spooky Aura's on Dracu Lasswell with my Excalibur and put the rest of the big damage stuff on Buttz (dual wield, blade mastery, Shakirabufuki, Gungnir) then start grinding double hand for CoD.

AegisP posted:Hmm, on second running of the numbers, looks like Elza still pulls ahead. Buttz, however, seems to be able to just break 500 ATK with Doublehand on himself and an Excalibur which is much better than I figured it would end up. So I might go that route with him instead. Once Garland gets his 6* increase, he's going to become my Doublehand beast. One of you math wiz guys tell me what he'd be at with Doublehand, Excalibur, 2x Bracer, Dark Helm, 10% atk x2 (Recipe should be out by then,) Barrage and a Power of Creation. Has to be over 700 at least right? Without Dual Wield. EDIT: Need a Barrage though, his single target dps would be pretty lacking without it. EDIT: vvvv Yea, but I only have one dual wield, I can put it on someone else and have two characters who hit harder than a truck. deathbagel fucked around with this message at 02:21 on Nov 23, 2016 |

AegisP posted:Couple things: Your materia on 6* Garland would want to include a Doublehand. Doublehand (materia) stacks with Doublehand (unit passive). It just doesn't stack with itself on GL for some reason, so you can't run 4 copies of the materia. Oh yea, that's right they do stack! I am doing this for sure then. I'll try with and without Barrage I guess! Thanks for the math!

Servaetes posted:pulled 15 times with tickets, got 4 Exdeaths, a Bartz, and two Faris. No Gilgamesh but thems the beats. Still gonna half off pull though. Doublehand is ok, but it gets really good if you put it on one of the characters with their own native doublehand, like Garland or Demon Rain since their native doublehand stacks with the materia.

I suppose I could plug in dk Cecil too for dark cannon black mist Meteor and double lightning. Awesome thanks for the reply that should help a whole bunch No problem, also, if Dracu Lasswell is dual wielding, Black Mist fires twice, for anyone that didn't know that part!

Tengames posted:lovely OCs. Judging by thier wiki pages they suck. Soleil gets a 60% buff dance for every main stat, 30% entire party confuse, sleep, blind and silence songs and immunity herself to sleep, paralyze, confuse and petrify. If she can use white magic materia she might be a pretty useful support character, especially in areana. Lawrence looks very mediocre though, but he does get inherent barrage which might make him useful if you are lacking a Chorizo, CoD, Butz or one of the other 6* barragers.

Kitted out Kain to 490 atk with double Dragon Killer and twin lance. He should be very good at killing the 2 headed dragon. I will leave him up for a couple of days so people can use him to beat the trial. EDIT: Yep, he's good at it. Dragon went down without much trouble and now I have a fancy new hat. deathbagel fucked around with this message at 19:26 on Dec 9, 2016 |

kalensc posted:Cool, thanks again! I'll try relying on resets and items next time. Which units do you have? If you have a Refia then Dualcast is really good. If you have an all mage team with some non-Exdeaths/non-Arcs then Dualcast is really good. If you have mostly attackers you might want to look at stuff like Blade Mastery from Chorizo or one of the big weapons (Rising Sun, Excalabur, Save The Queen, etc) Or you can just save them and keep praying for a Zidane. deathbagel fucked around with this message at 20:19 on Dec 9, 2016 |

kalensc posted:3x ExDeath, Golbez, Vaan Yes, though you don't have a great healer to use with it at the moment, so by the time you get one, you might have another 100% in moogles saved up. I am more of a get something that is useful now kind of guy but you do make a good point. Really though it looks like you are very mage heavy so the physical stuff wouldn't be amazing for you at the moment anyway. If I were in your spot I'd probably just save them for now.

1/2 price today was Fang, I never mind when I pull a character I don't have yet. I decided to blow a ticket on the new banner (had 31, need to have even numbers!) and got another Cecil. Maybe I'll start working on his LB and eventually replace my 6* one with him AND eventually I'll have a second Excalibur, though I don't place it as super important since every big tough enemy seems to be resistant to holy and I have to take the one I have off of my characters anyway.

Don't do it! I only have one Zidane and I've been playing since beta. You might never see him again...

Pokemaster #421 posted:Son of a bitch. 50 summons and the only unit of note I got from the whole loving lot was a second chiz. Not a single solitary rainbow in what's probably now my last 100 plus pulls. I'm seriously so jealous of all you people that seem to land almost every 5 star banner guy, esp if you've got a lightning and Luneth or noctus. I just want one of those dagnabit. Oh well once I get about five more trust moogles I'll finally have a dual wield I can pop on her or cod. I really wish my dumb babby computer would run that tm grind program but I guess some things are just not meant to be. I am at well over 200 pulls, probably close to 300 and my only base 5* unit is Dracu Lasswell. I'm still hoping all my luck is just piling up for Orlandu and I'll draw 5 in a row.
