Who the heck is Cor? I have zero recollection of him from FFXV.

Of course I try to have as few recollections of FFXV as humanly possible.

Cor Leonis was the leader of the Crownsguard for Regis, Noct's father.

He has about five minutes of screentime in the main game but shows up a lot more in Gladio's DLC.

Unsurprisingly, he seems like he'd be a great meme partner to pair with Gladio for a million extra attacks.

Cor and Ealdnarche is stupid and hilarious. Nothing can attack you but every time they try you hit them at least three times.

Cor + Yang + Terra is great too, basically constant aoe damage.

Thanks to Rem and Noct with their turn count shenanigans, and Cor's free Rainbow BRV attack, I managed to complete Cor's CQ in 19 turns. :black101:

Gonna try this one next. I did a fight with Galdio/WOL/Cor, and that was fun as hell. Extra attacks and counters while forced to target WOL.

Can't wait to have a team of Aphmau/Raines/Cor, for that sweet, sweet All Action, All The Time setup!

Aphmau LD to make Raines act next, Raines S2 to make Aphmau act next, and Cor linking with one of them to deal extra damage! :black101:

Oooooooooooh!

This is one of the handful of free games I check in everyday and do the daily mission for.
I haven't really chased any meta characters for a long time and only super pumped up Cloud, Squall, and Lightning when they were giving out all their stuff like candy a while back, so they're my main team.
I have about 600,000 gems and 999 tickets saved up now, is that normal, lol?

Sleep, rest, do your best.
I just decided to give this game a whirl and it’s pretty good. I started about a week ago and was lucky enough to get Cloud’s BT off the newbie banner, then managed to get Raines stuff from his banner. I kept playing the game to get more gems and now I have Zidane’s BT as well. Managed to snag Beatrix’s stuff while pulling for Zidane as well.

I think I’ll hold off on spending gems again until Ramza comes out on another banner because he’s a cool guy. Also because between Cloud, Raines, and Zidane I’ve been able to clear most of the non-Lufenia content on the banners right now. This game is very newbie friendly right now.

I guess right now I should focus on maxing my summon boards, and considering the amount of potions I’ve been given from leveling up (I’m 250 now) I think I can focus on that safely.

Also between Raines and Zidane I think I’m punching well above my weightclass because enemies just do not get turns.

Welcome to one of the best gacha games! It's really generous, and as you can see, with just a little luck, you can murder most regular content in the game.

Feel free to add your Friend Code to the spreadsheet linked in the OP, or just post it here, and I'll add it when I do the next update.

Ramza doesn't come around again until March of next year. Feel free to list some other favs, and I'll tell you when they come back. I have a spreadsheet that tracks this stuff.

Also, in 3 hours, the Harvest Madness Co-Op Part 2 Event will start, and that features 2 new banners. One has Bartz, Faris, and Freya, and the other has Ace, Kimahri, and Lyse. There'll be a free pull on each one. Good luck!

My friend code is 728573022.

I’m looking forward to the potential inclusion of Jack Garland so we can kill Chaos. Also however that will work in the surprisingly decent story that already includes Garland.

As for the grind, it seems like the hardest thing to come across are the BT materials by a pretty significant margin. The coins requiring 50 to pick one is a pretty huge number, and the materials to limit break a BT seem pretty tough to come by as well. They seem to be almost game breaking in how strong they are so that’s fair I guess. Especially since Raines don’t got one and he’s OP as heck.

Also since Freya, Faris, and Bartz are some of my other favorites I might just have to spend my tickets on that banner. No gems though, I’ll save those.

I'm too cheap to spend money on a gacha game, but after a bit of work I can auto battle level 150 content which still below the hardest content, but enough to get past most events and overkill for the regular story.

Am I missing something with this latest fight? I get 8 debuffs on them and they are still doing their turn warping deal.

They have to have 6+ debuffs on them BEFORE your turn for them to not warp. Which, considering one of their attacks adds 3 (unframed) buffs, that means you need six frames, and you're still gonna eat at least one turn warp.

This fight may in fact be the worst fight, mechanically, in DFFOO's history.

As rear end fights go, that one was about as rear end can be.

If you've got Beatrix, Auron, and Caius, you can off turn damage/break/debuff them enough to make the second wave easy but mad tedious. LDs needed for all three, unfortunately. They warp, you counter twice and then they get broken by Caius' doom debuff. Beatrix removes that loving health Regen buff too

I greened/blued Caius immediately because he's metal as hell and he makes that poo poo so much easier.

Auron and Maria can counter them to death even through their stupid regen.

Do you believe Beatrix, Auron, and Caius would work if I don't have Caius' BT? Getting tired of redoing the left and right fights just to try out different groups. Was hoping Auron, Exdeath, and Shelke would work on the second fight, but I can't get past the first round relying on debuff calls.

I don't think they'd have the DPT to push it out without burst synergy and/or a BT effect, sadly. That's part of the reason I used Bartz for my run of it in place of Beatrix. That did make things harder, but not as hard as if I didn't have Auron or Caius; Auron in particular handles the constant attacking like a champ and Caius handles the orb and like 55% of the Phase 2 bullshit, but neither of them have beefy enough auras (burst mode aside) to punch through Lufe+ tankiness on their own.

Bartz, Auron, and Cor made it easy. Just need to redo tiers 4 and 5 again, but I don't remember them being hard at all at least.

So global exclusives are pretty universally going on a cycle of 9, 15, 9, 15, 9... Lunafreya just got released in JP so what else could we get as FF15 rep for our next hype cycle?

Also rofl at Garnet burst, girl just muscled Bartz and Firion out of the support spotlight.

Hey, now! There was a 12 in there with Balthier LD!

Next 15 has a lot of options... Loqi, Kenny Crow, Cindy, Regis, Gentiana, Ravus, Libertus, Crowe, Glauca, Nyx. Personally, if they're gonna add another 15 character, I'd prefer Iris.

Oh right, Balthier and Vincent got their LDs here first and Serah got her LD rework here first. Still largely 9 and 15 for some reason.

Nyx seems most likely if for no other reason than he's technically a protagonist, of a tie-in anime.
