So aside from the lapis I got for the guaranteed 5* pull, I have 24 tickets, 2 4* tickets and 10K lapis ready for this banner. If the anniversary bundle is a good price that's an extra two 11 pulls.

I want Tidus dammit!
Also have 200% in trust moogles, hoping for something decent to put them into.

5* pull was a second Marie... I guess I'll take a second Rainbow Robe. I was really hoping for finally getting a Ramza or a Noctis. I guess it's just not in the cards...

Now I can't get into the game. Heavy server load right now I suppose.
Edit: and Rikku was in my free 10+1 ticket.. I'd stop there but god dammit I want Tidus.

So. Don't be a moron like me. It looked like the servers were more stable now. So I bought the anniversary bundle.
Purchase said completed. But then the "servers are too full" message popped me out of the game. I got back in. Bundle still in the store, but money gone out of my account.
I don't even know the exact steps to get this sorted out.


The first actual 11 pull on the banner got me a rainbow. Dark Knight Cecil.
I'm not having a good day for this...

For fucks sake Gumi remove the small cactuars and gil turtles from the raid coin list. This raid is absolute poo poo

Seriously! The raid boss sucks and the raid gacha doubly sucks. And you can only pull 1000 coins at a time.
I'll at the very least get the tickets out of the prizes, maybe get the trust moogle if I can deal with it. I won't even bother trying to get the pots.

Hopefully by then I can get one of the Mog's TM for Rikku. At the rate I'm seeing it drop, that's not likely.

Pulled Dark Fina in the 5*+10 pull. I ain't complaining 'cause I don't care enough for that. Is she worth Enhancing though?

Ultima Enhanced is pretty drat good. It becomes a multi-hitting move. Get yourself a friend D. Fina who is enhanced and double cast those Ultimas until things stop moving.

7 more 11 pulls today. Got Queen'd on the last one.
So this banner has hit me with Dark Knight Cecil and Queen after nine total 11 pulls.

But looking at the positives, I finally got Olive out of the 5* EX Ticket. Immediately got Sparky and kitted her out. That's good.

I think I'm quite done with this banner though. Gotta walk away to keep my sanity. Tidus was not meant to be.
(Except in my JP account where I pulled my second Tidus the other day...)

I'mma treat all you guys as liars to comfort myself.
The 10 EX tickets were all blue for me as well as garbage, the 4* ticket did get me Rikku which finally got her TM finished, but I still am missing Ashe, Amelia and Grace that I would really appreciate getting at least one of .
So anyone who pulled a 5* must be lying, Those tickets don't go that high... it's totally not my lovely luck, right?

EDIT: Free daily summon was a Lunera. Is she worth using at all?

Very passable now, amazing in the future.
Aureole Ray is a very acceptable chaining move with 20 hits, light and wind damage isn't a bad set of elements to have for an attack. She also has good chain finishing attacks with her separate wind/light arrow attacks.
Her song is still quite good, even with only a 40% stat buff it comes attached with very good HP/MP recovery.

She's got a great MAG stat, but really does need her own TM to shine, definitely work on that when you can.

After enhancements though she becomes incredible. There's a reason she ranks so damm highly on JP rankings.
Her song goes up to a 90% to all stats buff, not quite as powerful as Ramza's but it's a really good "full package" buff/heal song.
Aureole Ray becomes loving ridiculous at (IIRC) a720% multiplier on a 30-hit move. With another Lunera you can make stupid big chains right there.

And her one passive goes from 50% Mag/Spr with a bow equipped to a 150% Mag/Spr, which is kinda huge. It lets Lunera hit very respectable numbers, and all she needs is a bow (and her bow has 135 MAG on it!!)


I really wanted Lunera since I've never gotten a Ramza in these many many months. Got her on one 11-pull. After some research it turns out that she's totally better than Ramza in many aspects. She can be a buffer or a ridiculous magic nuker.

Free daily was Lunera #2

Really don't know how to feel about this. I already got her TM when I pulled that first one, and I don't use dupes in my teams so she won't be used for chaining.
I suppose I'll just keep her in my inventory... hopeful for the day that they implement a unit trading system (probably never happening)

Why don't you use dupes? Seems like a super random way to restrict yourself.

Just personally don't like em. Feels dull to me to use multiples of the exact same unit.
Even in games with a job system I don't use dupe jobs, everyone has to have their unique kit to bring to the table.

I only make an exception for mog king events. If it's bonus units I'll use dupes. Otherwise I'd rather mix it up.

Though dual Lunera's in arena sounds like a funny enough thing I could possibly make an exception there.

So I beat Aigaion, it took me 6 hours.

Team was Wilhelm/Rikku/Tilith/Rem/Orlandeau and a friend Fryevia.
Honestly I was never in danger during the trial. Rikku and Wilhelm's LB charged very often thanks to Rikku's TM. It was mostly that friend Frye that contributed almost all the damage.
It just took most of the day to finish , but that was alright because at least it's done!

Rikku is actually very necessary for the thresholds (at 70%/50%/30%/10% I believe). Aigaion's thresholds just does so much damage it practically instakills the entire party. So her auto-raise is what makes them not that much of a hassle. I mean you could use Rem's auto-raise on Tilith then have Tilith full life the party.
Honestly wouldn't recommend it though. Rikku is just too good.

Ramza' enhancements in JP absolutely trivialized so much content, they were way too good. I don't expect to see him get the enhancements for another couple months.

I will be enhancing my Marie and sharing her for this trial boss, so if anyone needs full status immunity with some wicked support, try her out!

And I'm pretty terrified, I have 40 tickets and 2 11-pulls to do on this banner. I skipped a bunch of pulls on the Veritas banner 'cause I need my waifus. I'm very doubtful I'll walk away from this banner happy though.

Between that, and not seeing a Pod 153 moogle drop from the raid gacha in 3 days, I'm kinda fine with just not summoning for a while after this event ends. Just a lot of saving to do.

Ever since I got home from work, my game crashes as soon as I hit the vortex button.
It's really weird because before I left I had done some runs in the kingsglaive event.

I don't know if anyone else has experienced anything like this before. I really hope it works itself it before the Halloween event starts, I really don't want to miss out on that.
Edit: after downloading it on my phone, I can access the vortex there, but it's Kimd of glitchy looking. With the ayaka event banner basically overlapping the kingsglaive banner.

Well... to anyone that has multiple Lightnings, don't be so upset...

7* was announced in JP, and looks like Lightning is the first one.
To awaken a (5* base only) to 7* you need a dupe to turn into the awakening crystal for them.
And 7* Lightning gets a boost with her TM. (And dupes are necessary for the new 7* Super TMs)

I made it to the summit. I have a couple rat tails.
Yet it tells me that I can't fly across the gap.

But the wiki says that going to the summit will have me asked to use a rat tail to fight Bahamut.

I thought skeleton king was nerfed to not be able to MP drain and use his big MP-scaling moves in the same turn.

I've done about 8 attempts since the maintenance and I've wiped every time because he just loving annihilates me with that combo.


But unless I can get a 100% dodge friend Soleil (preferably without RoL but the tickets may not even be worth it anymore), I don't think this trial is happening. Nothing is working, I can get to around 40% but then he combos me to death.
