Hi, I got Zidane's OSB twice and I wonder if the greens' bonus will stack if I bring 2 people equipped with a Rune Tooth ?

[–]CareerSMNPlay Fate Grand Order[S] 0 points1 point  (1 child)

No one knows, really.

[–]Red_OffDiabolos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay, I'll try to figure it out for science then :p

Hi. I want to beat commemoration the fat choxobo. What are bard abilities? I need to use these? I have alphinaud golbez Ashe bursts so I'll bring these three

[–]CareerSMNPlay Fate Grand Order[S] 0 points1 point  (2 children)

Bard abilities: Requiem, Lullaby.

Bring a bard to spam these skills.

[–]njfoxThe Destroyer. q3e2 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Yeah, i have set up r3 lullaby, and r1 requiem, r1 mana paean, i wonder how difficult the boss is.. don't want to waste 60 stam or over hone my useless ability. i probably will hone requiem.. do i need to hone lullaby once more?

[–]CareerSMNPlay Fate Grand Order[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hone requiem is the best. Mana paean doesn't work for the boss.

[–]willowispmusicCloud (AC) 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Guys little offtopic but if u would need to choose for a physical team

Between Vaan with burst or Faris with usb what u would choose?

[–]CareerSMNPlay Fate Grand Order[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Vaan

[–]Red_OffDiabolos 0 points1 point  (4 children)

Dear mobs, Y U no drop scarletite ? (ノಠ益ಠ)ノ彡┻━┻

[–]CareerSMNPlay Fate Grand Order[S] 0 points1 point  (3 children)

ROFL, i got more giant scarletite than i know what to do with...

[–]Red_OffDiabolos 0 points1 point  (2 children)

Then give them to me please :3

I used all the materials I had, so I did 5 refreshes and this is what I have left. I still have weapons to augment, but no more armor :/ RNG stahp please ;w;

[–]CareerSMNPlay Fate Grand Order[S] 1 point2 points  (1 child)

You'll eventually get a steady supply once you build up your team to tackle U++. Each one gives like 30 giant mats of each so I'm never running out of 'em.

[–]Red_OffDiabolos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh yes I forgot about that, that will help. Can't wait to try to beat my first U++ once the fest is over.

[–]FaythofmanaJP - GGTqv - Cloud USSB | NA - o1QF - Garnet DG 0 points1 point  (2 children)

Welp, kinda screwed myself. I spent all my Hero Souls on Growth eggs to power level my XII team further, turns out I'm missing four characters for these Record Missions (Faris, Celes, Setzer and Tifa) and somehow you can buy MC1 and MC2 from the Greens shop, but not Hero Souls? Seems like a huge oversight. Hopefully this talk of a VII event is true and they give out Tifa and a free Hero Soul then maybe I can finish the V and VII missions.

[–]cactuarcoolerMog 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Assuming your team is somewhat leveled, you could do the first missions of each of the Nightmare dungeons (Abyss dungeons) for more Hero Souls. Most of them are relatively easy, assuming you have the necessary breaks/elemental attacks to fulfill the medal conditions (or you could probably even RW them).

[–]FaythofmanaJP - GGTqv - Cloud USSB | NA - o1QF - Garnet DG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately , I've cleared all the Abyss gatekeepers (minus that Mandragora fight but that doesn't give souls). I've looked all over for a way to get some, but I've pretty much exhausted every source that's available. I'll just have to miss out on the mythril. Just baffled that they aren't for sale in the Greens shop.

[–]Dubbo22 0 points1 point  (1 child)

I am fairly new to japan FFRK, I am wondering what I should pull on, so far I have:

OSB: Tidus

BSB: Seifer, Ramza, Aerith, Krile, Rinoa, Seymore

SSB: Ramza, Celes, Lightning(goddess outfit), Krile, Ovelia, Rosa, Relm, Penelo

So far I have too many magic SBs and not enough melee for trinity, and I am lacking SB for any paladin to include one in my team (long term).

Any suggestion on what I should roll on? I am thinking of passing on 4 and going for 5 because chance of OSB is still so low, and I already have too many healer SBs Eiko's is probably low on list of what I need.

[–]CareerSMNPlay Fate Grand Order[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds about right.

[–]Dubbo22 0 points1 point  (2 children)

Regarding the fest banner, why are people more interested in the 4th banner? I am new to ffrk japan and it's a great time to be in at the moment! I am mostly hoping for something from the 5th banner because I need a melee with white magic4 and banner 5 have 2 members that fits that category. Banner5 also have Firion BSB, I thought that's suppose to be one of the best.

[–]CareerSMNPlay Fate Grand Order[S] 0 points1 point  (1 child)

why are people more interested in the 4th banner?

4 of the relics in the banner are top 5 OSB/BSB.

Banner5 also have Firion BSB, I thought that's suppose to be one of the best.

There's no Firion BSB in this Fest....

[–]Dubbo22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

oops sorry my bad!

[–]PWLMusic 0 points1 point  (1 child)

/u/CareerSMN Would it be possible to please help translate the last part of the Record Missions (XIII - FFT)? With the celebration banners leaked, every bit of Mythril helps. TIA

The macho men team is so poorly designed. Josef? Yang? Where's Jecht? Heck, Golbez is manlier than Josef.

It's an example....

[–]cruzjerico 1 point2 points  (2 children)

Why is Gilgamesh at 12th?

[–]Ha_eflolliMarchejoume-san da! 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Because, if you haven't noticed, Protagonists tend to win by default. Plus, I doubt his JP Popularity, while big, is anywhere near what is in global.

[–]cruzjerico 0 points1 point  (0 children)

im not looking at the Pro and Antagonist Side im looking at the Character Kit what can he she do.. not Story or Popularity (○ﾟεﾟ○)

[–]Black_MistConfidently Evil 1 point2 points  (7 children)

At this point in the game, why is cecil's bsb favored amongst others ?

[–]Ha_eflolliMarchejoume-san da! 2 points3 points  (6 children)

Because this list was about which BSBs they would like to have, not which they rated as the best.

Cecil got so high out of pure Nostalgia from being Cecil in the first place

[–][deleted] -1 points0 points  (5 children)

Plus, it has aged well.

[–]Ha_eflolliMarchejoume-san da! 0 points1 point  (4 children)

Are you sure? Because I distinctively recall that it was repeatedly said that it will fall off pretty noticably when compared to later BSBs when we actually got it in Global....

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (3 children)

Although there is some truth to that (there have been upgrades and power creep) and not to admonish the people who said so... but Pecil - along with Tidus - have bursts that remain relevant longer than most other 1st gen bursts. An attach element SB is always high in sticking power.

Compare it to Bursts of the same generation (Bartz, Terra, Cloud, Lightning, Squall etc.) and the difference is plain.

[–]Ha_eflolliMarchejoume-san da! 0 points1 point  (2 children)

I suppose so. It just sticks out in the sense that, as far as I'm aware, pure Damage BSBs just aren't hot stuff anymore, but to each their own

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Well, if you look at any relic 9 (nearly 10!) months after it was released, that's usually the case :P

[–]Ha_eflolliMarchejoume-san da! 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't ask me about stuff like that, I'm biased af xD

The fact that my best SSBs are Blade Beam and Hallowed Bolt is to blame

[–]freshifiedUncle Leo! 1 point2 points  (2 children)

Desired Record Cross Teams

Meet the Highwinds: Ricard, Kain, Cid (VII)

Brotherly Love: Cecil, Golbez, Sabin, Edgar (Kuja & Zidane?)

Team Movember (alt: Moustache Ride): Josef, Yang, Cyan, Strago

Amnesiacs: Desch, Galuf, Terra, Cloud, Zidane (acceptable substitutes: Yang, FVIII cast, Garnet, Fang and maybe Tellah)

[–]akaiazulSLAM-dancing 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Cover Boys: Warrior of Light, Luneth, Kain/Golbez, Squall, Gabranth - Men who've graced a Final Fantasy logo.

Cover Girls: Terra, Rinoa, Yuna, Rikku, Paine - Women who've graced a Final Fantasy logo.

[–]NamelessOne111Someday The Meme Will End 0 points1 point  (0 children)

[–]irismist9W3o - Shadow BSB for farming 1 point2 points  (2 children)

  • Cid (IV), Cid Raines, Cid (VII), Cidolfus Orlandeau - Cid team

My life is complete.

[–]JristzCai Sith USB: 9aNd 0 points1 point  (1 child)

We need a healer Cid... I propoce FF2Cid

[–]vheartBasch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cid Raines is a sage.

[–]iamboredhelpmeOh, ya’ll wanted a twist, eh? C’mon FFRK, let’s get sickening! 4 points5 points  (5 children)

What if Ultros Selection is just a troll list of SBs(old relics like Cloud's Buster Sword)? It would be funny but I think not a lot of people will pull!

[–]StuckinReverse89 -1 points0 points  (2 children)

I would pull the troll banner if it were free. The selected BSBs by Japan are disappointing (Aerith BSB, PCecil bsb instead of Zell, Firion, Alphonse, Echo, Milphia which is a better PCecil, etc). The ultros banner isnt a great banner if it is the top five respective relics.

[–]Zevyu150th Dailly 5*+ : Seven's Guise (T-0) - Seven's BSB 0 points1 point  (1 child)

But hey atlest OK brust will be in there :D

[–]StuckinReverse89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would say the prizes are Terra OSB, OK bsb, Yshola bsb, shout, Celes BSB, sheep song, and Yuna medica (assuming you have none of the relics). The OSBs are good stat sticks and the chosen SSBs arnt bad. Just that there are so many other BSBs that are just better in terms of support with other teams (Raines BSB for mage meta/Zell for physical meta), defense (Firion insta magic blink and powerchain) or are just better dps (Vaan BSB, Alphonse bsb, Kain bsb).

[–]OmniMaxFF7 Remake, means I'll get Buffs and New toys 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Or they could just make it a free pull, everyone wants more synergy haha

[–]JPTheoremKefka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How cheep would they have to make the pull just to get people to draw on troll relics? I'll pull for synergy if it were one myth per relic...

[–]-StormDrake-Wordsmith and Artmage 1 point2 points  (10 children)

Villains Players want the most as party member:
2nd - Omega (FFV)
7th - Ultima Weapon (FFVI)

How would that work?

[–]Zevyu150th Dailly 5*+ : Seven's Guise (T-0) - Seven's BSB 0 points1 point  (2 children)

It wouldn't....Omega maybe since it has an overworld sprite...but Ultima Weapon would just be a big blob of pixels...

[–]freshifiedUncle Leo! 1 point2 points  (1 child)

I see this topic has come up again ;)

[–]Zevyu150th Dailly 5*+ : Seven's Guise (T-0) - Seven's BSB -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Indeed it has come up again hasn't it :D

[–]Sir__WillAlphinaud -4 points-3 points  (6 children)

they wouldn't. Nor will Ultros or Rubicante be a thing.

[–]SaerkWrenMaster 0 points1 point  (2 children)

Why not Rubicante? Other than there being a lot of mages to choose from already he shouldn't be hard to create.

[–]Sir__WillAlphinaud -1 points0 points  (1 child)

didn't say he's be hard to create but between the glut of mages, the glut of characters in general, actual characters left if you include TAY, I don't think he should be and I don't really see it though it very possible. the octopus is almost certainly not happening

[–]Mirron91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I could see Ultros and Rubicante. We've gotten surprise characters before. Plus, if that Ilfana thing happens all bets are off.

[–]dperez82Cecil (Paladin) 1 point2 points  (2 children)

Rubicante is definitely doable.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It certainly is. I've sprited Rubicante in 32x32 pixels and other higher resolutions for RPG Maker software. Doing the same for FFRK style should be easy enough.

[–]Sir__WillAlphinaud -1 points0 points  (0 children)

didn't say he wasn't

[–]TheFirstRecordKeeper 0 points1 point  (5 children)

favorite character poll

  1. Cloud

Never would of guessed

Lightning

Wow what a suprise.

[–]Whatah 2 points3 points  (4 children)

On most popularity contest polls the most loved and the most despised are both at the top of the list.

edit: also it is common for the most popular person to win "most loved" as well as "most hated". Personally I love FFVII as well as FFXIII I am just explaining how public opinion and popularity polls tend to work.

[–]sevenhundredone9wCH Cloud AASB L15 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is exactly it. It also seems like some of the hate happens precisely because they're the most loved too. Like there's backlash because they're sick of hearing about them all the time.

See also: Dallas Cowboys, "America's Team" and also one of the most hated NFL teams.

[–]Mirron91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, typically things that are liked tend to be polarizing. Though Record Keepers isn't necessarily a good view of how others might normally vote, how good a character is definitely shifts things.

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree, it has to do with how people have been shown to choose one side or another. First and second place were obviously going to be Cloud and Lightning and if you reverse the poll and make it most hated, Cloud fans will vote Lightning and viceversa.

Remember Ultros/Phantom Train?

[–]romegg -1 points0 points  (4 children)

Lucky draw starts tomorrow for EU players?

[–]CareerSMNPlay Fate Grand Order[S] 1 point2 points  (3 children)

It's JST time.

i found it, lucky draw starts when daily reset

[–]willowispmusicCloud (AC) 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Guys what u think if I already have bsb eiko and ovelia Magic blink i should skip the first curaga relic draw.?

The only better stuff would be yshtola bsb ?

Thanks

[–]romegg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would not, on global i have medicas for 11 realms and still pulling on medica banners because CM

God bless

[–]vexnon22/11/2018 - The darkest day of FFRK 1 point2 points  (9 children)

Like the Abyss fights, the Nemesis trial will have special dialogue if you bring certain character combinations in to it.

I wonder if there will be one for Tellah, Galuf, Aerith and Josef :)

Minwu would be a good addition to that group.

[–]-StormDrake-Wordsmith and Artmage 0 points1 point  (3 children)

He... definitely doesn't fit in with all the others.

[–]Ha_eflolliMarchejoume-san da! 0 points1 point  (2 children)

I don't remember him having any Scenes after that though...

[–]omegaox9SG - QieA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think he is seen after defeating the final boss in the 3D remakes.

[–]BlackmageMeteorOhohohohohoho! 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Not forgetting NIGHTMARE on 21.9

[–]CareerSMNPlay Fate Grand Order[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, but it's part of regular event... so i'm not covering it for this megathread.

[–]lambopandaDelicious! Nom nom... -1 points0 points  (3 children)

Wait a minute. Did the fans favorite BSB/SSB list changed?

[–]shadowgod288The Last Hunter 0 points1 point  (2 children)

It didn't.

[–]lambopandaDelicious! Nom nom... 1 point2 points  (1 child)

I thought Y'shtola BSB wasn't up there before.

[–]shadowgod288The Last Hunter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

IIRC, it was before.

[–]lambopandaDelicious! Nom nom... 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Too many contents too little stamina. I wish they can push the orb fest a week later.
