You might as well wait for Hyou who blows pretty much every DD out of the water. I don't think it was too big of a gap between Sephiroth and Hyou (1 month?). I don't see many folks using Lila much anymore since she has like 3k HP with a SPR-focus build compared to 7*s who have like 16k HP. Apparently she's not so great in any fight that isn't a OTKO because she gets dunked on. FWIW, Hyou is a TDH unit with dual- and triple-ability and uses Holy Explosion frames. His chains are back loaded so the big hits are capped and he has a plethora of -60% imperils built into his moves. He basically takes every good thing about every other meta chainer and combines it into a single kit. But there's always a new unit to wait for... dangerous.hotdog fucked around with this message at 00:52 on Dec 27, 2017 |

Dana Crysalis posted:yeah, wait those 8 months for Hyou, good choice. In the context of waiting for Seph/Lila (the post I was replying to), it's not far-fetched. I don't plan that far ahead personally but if someone's holding out that long, you might as well wait for Hyou anyway.

hagie posted:Eh "holding out" has never worked for me. The 3 times or so I did it this year I did not get what I was going all in for. I think I am just going to toss tickets around as I feel like it this year with out going balls deep when whale candy shows up. And Gumi throwing in really decent/good GL exclusives makes saving really hard. It's more fun to spend now anyway.

werdnam posted:I don't have Ayaka or T. Terra, but I do have Roy and Christine. Do you think I have a chance with a party of Cagnazzo, Roy, Mystea, Christine, friend Christine, and a healer? No Tillith, but I have Yshtola and Refia and Luka (enhanced) with a Dualcast to spare if it helps. Christine should do more damage than TT if you can bring an imperil so that should work out great.

Evil Fluffy posted:We'll be lucky if we see CG Reagan within the next 8 months. Hyou is probably 10+ months away and because ~global is a different game~ we'll probably get his 6* form and have to wait a month for his 7* form like Gumi used to do with new units in Brave Frontier. And Ramza enhancements will probably land sometime after that.

We could probably extrapolate the number of active players from the raid events. Like, take the amount of points required to go from 20-21, divide that by number of points earned per orb (20,000) and that will tell you how many orbs you went through in that time period. Divide that number by the number of hours it took and it should tell you the number of players (without accounting for people who refreshed or whatever). I can't find the number of points it takes from rank to rank on raids though. dangerous.hotdog fucked around with this message at 00:25 on Dec 28, 2017 |

Evil Fluffy posted:There are people in this thread who didn't get a 5* base until the crystal changes took place. I know I was trolled by multiple non 5* rainbows and others ITT got burned worse than I did. I still have my rainbow Lenna of Shame sitting in my box where she will remain level one and untouched forever as well. Yea, I was one of those sad dudes. I went ~6-7 months from starting the game shortly after GL launch til my first rainbow. But this guy was ignoring all the really good 4* banners we had too. I would have struggled like crazy without WoL, Rikku, 9S, Soleil, etc.

Office Thug posted:Already got you! You'll have at least one FD OK once I round out the remaining 35-40% on my last Marshall Glove and my first Fixed Dice I'm thinking about putting up an FD TDH OK companion but I think it's going to be a pain in the rear end finding chaining partners for raids given we run them hourly. Finding Orlandeau friends is just so easy.

2nd run of TDH FD OK chaining (with guest FD FV without TDH gear or killers) vs. Aigaion ELT: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y_xIyxRPFaw Went a lot better the 2nd go around. Geared Wilhelm for more DEF and he didn't die plus I got ridiculously awesome RNG on FV's counters.

NinjaDebugger posted:For anybody who needs a carry, or who just wants to press auto once in a while, I have a 99% auto carry up. The boss has to auto-attack 3+ times a turn (which it does rarely) a bunch of times in a row to make any significant headway against Pure White Blessing, everything else is resisted. Just hit auto and wait a few minutes. drat, that is a sexy DRain.

I look at Balthier as an FV for people who don't like to gamble (on procs or FD). I still think FV is a better unit because he can use FD and has a -100% imperil (albeit as a counter). A Machine Gun+ TDH build for Balth would be pretty loving strong though. And without all the RNG bs of FD.

Thurin posted:What's a good thing to host for friends for a new player? Any damage guys I put up are probably going to be subpar because I don't have the equipment to support them. My thought was to put something up as sort of a utility/edge case thing, but my choices are pretty limited. You can probably start retiring her as 6* max units will be much more powerful to use. However, her Sealing Blade niche is still incredibly useful so she will definitely be handy for fights down the line. For example, there's a story boss that loves to dispel you every turn then poo poo down your throat. Sealing Blade can prevent the dispel from happening so you can keep all your buffs and survive much easier. There's another story boss that unleashes a devastating water AoE and I used Celes to soak that up too. I used her on a ton of trial bosses too (Greater Demon to eat Graviga, Brachiosaur to eat Ultima, etc.). I love Celes.

Skyridge posted:aka the "Hope you pulled these three rainbows from the same banner, idiot" set.

I need to grind a few TMs, but I have everything to BiS her. Now I just need VoD to complete the set. Grats! Remember to level that insane LB.
