Kam will get a bit better with his LD boards and LD Call, since Light Blade will hit twice and will inflict 3 turns Addle on hit, and the CA version gives 30% BRV refund for three turns. But yeah, I pulled him out of FFXI favouritism, more or less.

Yeah, just from even his normal dive to 80, it really seems like Kam'lanaut's biggest appeal is for someone else to bring him along. Even his normal CA is a nice meaty debuff and BRV refund.

Understanding game mechanics, eh?

At least it makes it easy to by and large ignore some coops since everyone just brings lightning and then wails on the boss semi-ineffectually.

Used all my.tickets but I got Reno's kit. Hail Satan it was probably not worth it but unique debuffers are fun

Got Agrias?

Lightning/Agrias/Edward seems to be a good combo. Agrias' EX will totally stop Mist from happening until 29%, where it's guaranteed. At that point, let Agrias Paralyze them or Edward Sleep them, and let them have a turn. This strategy brought to you by tas on the Opera Floozy Discord.

Lufenia I haven't tried yet and I'm sure I will do fine with that as I have plenty of characters that can paralyze/sleep. It's just the challenge quest that I have to do with Leo, Rosa and Lightning. I mean I even have Lightning BT/LD but this stupid rear end unintuitive fight just gives my mind fits.

edit: Beat the stupid bastards. Just worked on each one separately instead of both at once. Sometimes just fought through the mist barrier bullshit. Just barely beat the score with 660k. I'll do Lufenia tomorrow or something

From what I'm hearing (haven't tried him yet), Seph isn't that great now, but he gets a rework later on that fixes a lot of his issues. So you won't need to pull then.

I am my own man.

As someone who was given despair (meaning I tilted and ended up pitying Seph LD in an attempt to get Ignis EX) I've had a chance to mess around with Seph's full kit now.

Seph is... "fine", in the same way that Squall is fine currently. He does damage. His damage isn't less, he's not pre-BT Tidus tier or anything, but the potencies on his attacks can lag behind and he's got limited skill uses, little to no aoe brave shaving, and no real leverage aside from just Big Red Number. His EX is also gravity based, meaning that it's literally never going to break anyone.

His LD is perfectly competent, being a two-HP dump aoe move with a minor framed debuff (10% mBRV sap, +30% BRV damage taken), and his Burst is literally an effect that no other thing in the game has right now, in that it returns an enemy's BRV to 1 after every turn. Yes, this unbreaks broken enemies. Yes, that means Friend Sephiroths are arguably more valuable to foist into a Lightning/Ardyn/etc team than they are as your own unit.

The ultimate problem is that Seph's kit was basically tooled for Cosmos-era stuff, and the LD and Burst give him something that lets him carry his weight... in Chaos. He still lags behind in any waters rougher than that, for now.


For context, coming somewhere near July, Sephiroth's kit is getting a rework, including his LD. The changes are as follows:

Fervent Slash
Currently:
5 ST BRV > ST HP > 5 ST BRV > ST HP, 130% Overflow. Adds two levels to existing Jenova stack (does nothing with no stacks; this will literally never be an issue)

Rework:
5 AOE BRV > AOE HP (Split) > BRV Gain (20% HP damage dealt) > 6 ST BRV > ST HP, 150% Overflow. Identical buffs.

Octoslash
Currently:
7 ST BRV > ST HP, 180% Overflow. Adds 1 level of Jenova, 2 levels if breaking/attacking broken.

Rework:
BRV Gain (200% Atk) > ST HP > 7 ST BRV > ST HP > BRV Gain (20% HP damage dealt) > 7 ST BRV > ST HP (20% Splash). Identical overflow and buffs.


His LD (Scintilla) also gets more hits, a new buff (stack-based general stat boost for Seph), and its debuff becomes the first gold-framed (read: entirely undispellable, even by boss self-cleanses) debuff available.


tl;dr: consider Sephiroth like a single-target Squall. He's just kind of an unimpressive beatstick now, but when his reworks come he becomes a beast.

That he is so extremely mediocre right now is good for my limited resources since I went way too hard on Reno. Might end up forgoing Rude even, since I want a bunch of upcoming stuff there's a good chance 200 tickets won't cut it.

Reno lufenia down; it's all about delay/damage up until they get mist,. paralyze/sleep, and repeat. Reno was costly but worth it.

Is Galuf still useful? He's the only EX I'm missing from current banners, and I do have Sephy's LD (but not his BT) so I'm not sure whether to bother any more...

He’s still useful, but his biggest problem is that everything he does, Gladio currently does better. If you don’t have Gladio, though, go ahead and gun for his EX. Having a cover-based tank is great against things like the Crust Beetles (clear their debuffs regularly) or things Lock-immune.

They also work better with heavy debuffers like Ami and Kefka.

I hope the current Lufenia isn't the new normal, it took way too many tries to finish. Ended up completing it with Ardyn, Gladiolus, and Desch after trying 5 or 6 different comps and probably 5 hours of attempts. Ended up just resetting the first turn until the right order randomly came up, which shouldn't really be necessary.

Yeah, these three (Reno’s, Sephiroth’s, and the upcoming one with Ciaran’s LC) are generally considered the worst of the worst for multiple reasons, ranging from bullshit mechanics to the fact that the latter two have literally no way to mitigate the orb and are as of such raw unfettered damage races. After this, they tone back down at least until Lufe bosses start passively reducing your BRV gains (around the time Act 3 kicks into gear) and even then you’ll have better tools to deal with things.

Leon is the next JP LD.

Also in JP, Vaan got his rework early. From reddit:

Awakening 55: Red Spiral Extend
When using Red Spiral: Becomes 4-HIT Magic BRV Attack + HP Attack twice
When using Whiteout: Becomes 5-HIT Ice Magic BRV attack + HP Attack twice

After using Red Spiral twice (instead of 5 times):
Red Spiral becomes Red Spiral+: Becomes 4-HIT Magic BRV Attack + HP Attack 3 times
Whiteout becomes Whiteout+: Becomes 5-HIT Ice Magic BRV Attack + HP Attack 3 times

Awakening 60: White Whorl Extend
When using White Whorl: Becomes 4-HIT Wind Magic BRV Attack + HP Attack twice
When using Luminescence:
Becomes 5-HIT Holy Magic BRV Attack + HP Attack twice
20% splash damage to non-targets
Increases own BRV by 100% of HP damage dealt after each HP attack except the last
Small increase in success rate of "Blind"

After using White Whorl twice (instead of 5 times):
White Whorl becomes White Whorl+ 20% splash damage to non-targets
Luminescence becomes Luminescence+ Becomes 5-HIT Holy Magic BRV Attack + HP Attack 3 times

Glad Jecht is getting more love. He and Auron and Tidus got me through a lot of content when their EXs came out back in the day.

Rude/Kimahri/Lightning is borderline broken. With all of their stuff active, every turn Rude takes caps everyone on battery, and they get hella brave regen every turn since the heal from Kimahri is converted to brave at 500% on top of the standard brave regen.

Also y'all were right about Sephiroth. Got his burst pulling Rude, and his LD in a handful of tickets. Kuja and Lightning are better in every way.

His rework in like 6 months with his LD Boards at least puts him on par with Kuja as far as dpt, though he's got a lot less team utility in exchange for keeping his numbers nice and huge by making his sap effect un-dispellable and giving himself a third buff with his boarded LD.

He's not bad at all even currently, but he's at best an A-tier when he's surrounded on both sides by constant S-tier shenanigans, even in non-burst banners. Cloud is basically going to beat him up and eat his lunch money.

It's from a thing they do in the streams. If you look at the slides from last month, they only announce Lightning getting Burst and Limited, but not Sephiroth. 2 slides before the last one, they show "New BT + LD Banners!" without saying who, while showing a Sephiroth sticker, and on the last slide, it's "Ciaran Lost Chapter + ??? Event" followed by "BT Character featured in both!".

Even on the in-game Event Schedule, it says, "New BT Weapon For Lightning", with "New BT Weapon For ???" right below it.

It's pretty much as pointless as the "??? Who's that Pokémon?!" they do when we're getting a new character at the end of the month, like they did for Rude.

Nothing particularly groundbreaking out of all of it, but I’m happy. A pile of freebies leading into Cloud LD/BT sounds like a good time to me.

It’s amazing what a good job DFFOO has done of creating distinct play styles. I’ve got a monstrous Lightning delay team, a tanky counter team with Gau-ladio, soon I’ll have a launch team with Cloud.

If you pulled for Rude, absolutely pair him up with Gau and Gladio. His LD effect makes Gau's LD/S1 counters terrifying. Why yes, I will take a full team battery every time anyone in the party takes any sort of hit, thank you!

Rude is hilarious. Pair his LD with Kimahri and his S1 does 120k damage and does a huge battery for the party. Pair him with Cyan and Cyan's S2 does capped damage and then recaps his brave. WoL's EX ability becomes a huge party battery. Firion is gonna be nuts too.

Also Ciaran is good and I am glad I got his LD with tickets because him, Kuja, and WoL is a very good party.

Ciaran is a solid aurabot with appreciable damage but his LD is more or less essential to keeping him running. It's not like other characters where it adds a new wrinkle into his kit; instead it fixes the glaring ramp problem his kit previously had, Ultimecia style. But if you have his whole loadout, he's probably one of the best stat-boosters in the game, barring characters that use unframed party-wide buffs (like Sazh).

He probably would have been a lot better recieved if his LC wasn't immediately before Rude's event, since Rude does a lot of the same things with auras and has just as solid damage (better, if you're counting prave shaving) but trades a bit of aura potency for reliability and a lot of healing (and in turn, battery). He unfortunately makes Ciaran look weaker than he actually is by comparison.

The real gift was giving me Exdeath LD in one pull. 80% attack down plus off turn damage is goddamned great.

That luck means I can pity DKC and Ramza now. I've had both purpled forever even though they haven't ever been all that great. Taking characters off the bench is good.
