So what was up with that warning announcement this morning? Are they trying to ban macro users, or are they referring to people who are hacking the game to get TM rewards? Because if they start banning macro users, welp, I'm done with this game.

I'm really struggling with second round Gilgamesh, anyone have any advice? I'm running CoD/Light/Agrias/Lenna/Tellah, should I pull out Tellah for Dracu Lasswell for more survivability? I just can't hurt him before I get worn down and people start dropping, then it's over. I'm making a run now with a friend Cecil so we'll see if that helps.

Finally beat elite Gilgamesh after grinding Cecil up to 100. Survived with Lightning at 40 hp and just enough mp for one hail mary barrage.

I've got 50% of trust moogles sitting around, and my TM team is all in the 20-30% range, so I'm going to be able to max out someone soon. Who is the one I should dump to get first? Agrias - Save the Queen Cecil - Excalibur Ludmille - Dualcast Maxwell - whatever the 30% atk materia is Arc - Omnirod My usual party is Lightning/CoD/Dracu Lasswell/Tellah/Lenna, so I'm really leaning towards Cecil for the Excalibur since I think that fits Lightning the best of the two swords, since she needs to keep a katana in one hand since I have blade mastery, and maybe one day I'll get lucky and pull an Orlandeau. Any thoughts? I used to use Kefka in my party but I moved in Tellah for Arena because of raise, and I do have an Exdeath but he's still 3* level 8 so a ways away from him being viable, but I suspect he'll replace Tellah when the time comes, so dualcast seems a lot less needed for me than it did a month ago. Agrias/WoL/Cecil step in place of CoD or Lasswell as appropriate. Palleon fucked around with this message at 05:09 on Dec 3, 2016 |

ApplesandOranges posted:Can a Lightning solo ELT with a carry? Just asking because I pulled Vanille so I can now run a full bonus team (Sazh/Sazh/Fang/Vanille/Light). I've been able to run Elite with my 565atk Lightning carrying any other Lightning with >575 atk, along with a snow and 3x Sazh. Round 1: Lightnings both electric blitz, one turn kill Round 2: Sazh deprotect, one light crushing blow (mine has a ton of mp), low mp light attacks, one turn kill Round 3: Sazh deprotect, both lights crushing blow or fire blitz, snow and 2x Sazh attack to chain, one turn kill Round 4: same as above, should take off more than 50% so he charges, turn 2 repeat for kill. Gets around 1150 gears per run. Now of course it's not super easy to get a Lightning up to that level in the first place, and you won't always have friend units available with that kind of firepower, but it's absolutely possible.

At any point in the JP version do they allow you to have different equipment loadouts for different teams? It's a gigantic pain in the rear end that equipment is locked to characters, or that if I want to switch my Lightning from an Arena to an event build, I have to go manually change that every time.

rio posted:Is Charlotte good? Googling around it seems like she is good (I saw a recommendation that she is actually better than WoL?). I don't have a tank on my team and don't know if she is worth swapping in - my team is CoD, Elza, Farris, Exdeath and Lenna. You need a full breaker more than a tank, so I'd keep Farris in until you find someone better. To clarify, other than arena and some of the very recent trials/event bosses, I've found absolutely no need for a tank for any of the content I've run up against. Maybe I'd level up Charlotte if you have your core 5 all maxed for arena purposes but otherwise I think you should stick with what you've got.

I read they are in the pro awakening dungeon and have been hitting it hard - I also needed wicked drops and they are dropping (slowly) but I have not gotten one brilliant ray. There are a few from the king moogle but not enough...I wish I could grind gears for them because unless I am in the wrong dungeon (I hope so) they are absurdly rare or I am just really unlucky. Wiki says pro awakening is it.

Burned 14 tickets because I was bored, I was going to just use two, but then I kept getting good units so couldn't stop. Cyan Exdeath number 3 Refia Mercedes Mercedes Mercedes Bedile Artemois Rydia Arc number 11 Rosa Anselm Fang number 2 Snow number 2 I can definitely live with this. Lot of new units and some decent tms I don't mind duplicating. Refia I really needed.

Heroic Yoshimitsu posted:Would you consider buying lapis to fuel TM macro grinding a wise investment. I'm around 75% on my first DW, which goes up to about 90 if I were to combine my two Zidanes. Do not combine them. You want as many as you can get. And I burn lapis for my grinding, I have the units i want so what do I really need lapis for? I'm content pulling dailies and burning event tickets.

I've got about 30 units now I really want to grind tms on, I'm thinking the better investment is to skip dailies and instead do two nrg recharges a day to just get these things moving. TMs will improve my team substantially better than another 5* base character could, even under the assumption I'd even pull another one. I just have to commit myself at some point to ignore these events and just turn on the macros.

Heroic Yoshimitsu posted:So I got Locke's TM, and so I have another open sport on my TM team. Currently I have Maxwell/Chizuru/Mercedes/Zidane on it. The best choices I have I think are: I'd go with the bracer, more versatile since anyone can use it so you get some more loadout flexibility. Also there are already a ton of really good swords out there, so if it takes you a while to get it, it may be a bigger relative improvement (as I assume equipment powercreep will also continue).

Is there any reason to keep multiples of Tellah, Firion, or Black Cat Lid? I've got four of each, trying to trim down my unitblidt, and their TMs don't seem so great I'd want multiples, and I also don't think they're so high priority if want to run them all at once to grind them out faster.

Go RV! posted:Firion gets real good, but he's needs a ton of TMs to be REAL good. It will probably be difficult to gear two well, so I think you're safe to smoosh them. His TM isn't really that good, so there's no reason to keep multiples for that. I've got four exdeath and 3 Kefka so Tellah seems super obsolete to me.

Cartoon Man posted:Yeah, Tellah needs to be sent back to the old folks home. If he ever gets a sixth star he might compete with ExDeath if you can put a dualcast on him. Raise is always a useful skill to have, especially if you have no Refia. I just grabbed Refia last week so yeah, that's why I'm struggling to justify the space. I mean, I'll keep my one, he's still useful, but don't need 4. I've got 140 units, I'm never grinding out that TM.

kalensc posted:Running out of 6* upgrade materials. Would you awaken a 2nd Chiruzu, 2nd Cecil, or 1st Snow? I don't have any TM gear so I'd be limited to equipping an 80 and 60 atk katana. Chaining the lvl 100 ability seems like it could be awesome though. Snow would get the atk/def fist from the last event, and I hear that Cecil/Snow can combine to make a really good cover combo? I don't know under what scenario you'd want a second Cecil or even one Snow in a lineup unless you want to have the douchiest arena team ever. Go with Chiruzu, at least multiple strong attackers has a purpose.

Decided it's Christmas, I'm burning all my tickets on the Noctis banner because why the hell not. Not a single Bedile or Clyne. Rosalina off-banner 2x Terra (had none before) Kefka (my third) WoL (second, this was accidentally a 500 lapis pull because I was moving too quickly, whoops) 4 Charlottes Ludmille (5th) Rakshasa gold crystal (first) Leo (second) 2 Amarants (third and fourth) Overall, eh, some new stuff, but at this point, unless I pull a 5* base, the only unit I'm desperately wanting is a second Zidane or my first Miyuki, so I guess all things considered that's not a bad outcome. Some decent TM possibilities.

HGH posted:I have way too many smart pots, and my Exdeath is maxed on them. I know Kefka eventually gets a 6* upgrade, and all 3 of my Arcs are 3* right now while my three Kefkas are 5*. Should I just dump the pots on one Kefka? Bedile does hybrid damage so maybe prep a team of 5 Bedile with pot enhanced magic?

I guess I forget how good I have it with my Lightning. Heat blitz, combined with a physical boost, 2 chained firagas from Exdeath and Tellah, along with any AoE physical from a friend with more than 600atk kills the gifts on turn one, and then Frosty is dead on turn 2.
