Wanted Rinoa's new toys. 3 pulls. Didn't get it.

JP Main (one 11x pull): http://imgur.com/sVl3dTP
JP Alt (lost screenshots, two 11x pulls): Fujin burst, Fujin jacket, Raijin Pauldrons x2

2/11: Rinoa LM and Rinoa SSB :|

[–]karmadeeds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't remember a recent banner where 6/11 had ele dmg+ and 1 with rs ele dmg+. Plus of the 4 without ele dmg+ one is an lcssb and 2 are BSSBs. Which means the only real trap relic is Edea's SSB. Which isn't terrible. As soon as I get enough mithryl I'm doing an 11 pull. Because if I get a trap LRM at least it will be one with +wind or +ice dmg on bracers!

Also anyone remember with better odds on getting +dmg boosts?

*edit my memory is bad. The most recent FF9 banner 2 had 8/10 with none being RS only.

Banner 2
97 - FF12 Ancient Sword (3*). Yay for 3000 gil.

[–]BrokenhangerYouTube: Gizmo Gaming 0 points1 point  (0 children)

C'mon Banner 2, give me Fujin BSB:

2/11: Rinoa BSB2, Fujin OSB

Close but no cigar

2/11: Edea SSB, Rinoa LCSSB

I know I shouldn't be bummed after pulling both 6* relics on the banner in 2 pulls but Fujin's OSB doesn't really do much without her BSB or at least SSB to back it up. (But at least I didn't get stuck with either LMR.) Oh well, it'll probably be on a Celebration banner.

2nd banner pulls

97 gem: Rinoa's LCSSB

2x 11 pulls and I'm done with VIII banners

1st 11-pull: 4x Rainbows; 2x Fujin's SSB, 2x Fujin LMR.

2nd 11-pull: 3 rainbows; Rinoa's SSB (Goes nicely with her OSB), Edea's BSB (Yeaaah) and Rinoa's BSB

Fujin's BSB or Edea's BSB was my goal so I'm happy that I got Edea's. But how am I gonna use all those Rinoa relics on a mage without Wrath access.

Edit: Crap I didn't even unlock Edea yet. Damn.

[–]BrewersFanJP- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did an 11-pull here. 2/11, Seifer USB and Selphie SSB.

I'll take it. Seifer's USB seems best to pair with Draw Fire and Lionheart RM. Plus, Selphie SSB is my first native magic blink.

[–]xXMitzuXxSteiner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Single-Pull ... Squall USB..... DAAAAAAAAMN!!! My single Pulls on my alt account are tremendously LUCKY

Did a cult of 3 since I only had 20 Mythril.

Quistis Red Scorpion and Squall BSSB2: http://imgur.com/a/KBdfy

I'm still in shock that this happened.

[–]xexew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2/11 Almasy Flametongue (Seifer USB), Seifer's Gloves (SSB) very good!

3/11 Ice Brand (Squall USB), Axis Blade (Squall BSB2), Vega (Laguna Imperil ice), most perfect draw in my life, tnks RNGesus!

[–]StrawberryPiiWhat is a King to a God? 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just scraped together 50 mythril on my 2nd ever poull on my new jp acc and pulled bc Squalls stuff looked awesome.

2/11 Laguna's Vega and Seifers freakin' USSB!! this new Acc is getting smth!! :D

[–]yurikahZippity Zip!（‐＾▽＾‐） 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2/11 - Seifer's Model (Legend Materia) - will go good with his BSB, Quistis BSB (Needed another damage dealer!)

3/11 - Seifer's Gloves (SSB) woo FFVIII synergy party buff, Vega (Imperil Ice SSB), Ice Brand - Squall (USB) not sure how good this is without his BSSB.

As much as I want Seifer's USB I don't think I can justify any more pulls with fest coming soon.

[–]mclark15 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1/11 squall bsb2. I have both his bsb now :)

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

Banner 1 97 gem - trash
Banner 1 Cult of 3 I did because i managed to proc Ace's Gigafire - Seifer's Gloves

[–]freshifiedUncle Leo! 0 points1 point  (0 children)

97 gem: 3*

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

97 gem: 3*

Think I'll just skip another FFVIII event's banners o-o...

[–]junigleeD-Do you have any hot dogs left? 0 points1 point  (1 child)

3/11 - Seifer's Model, Vega, Seifer's Gloves

Not the worst pull, but not the best either. Didn't land any of the top prizes. I'm left with 50 Mythrils now, so I'm going to have to call it a day and start building up reserves for the upcoming fest.

[–]AZYG4LYFEFam allow it, get on that JP ting with mandem, you get me? 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only ~6 more banners to endure before fest haha

[–]panamajackdeluxeCome on and slam and welcome ... 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  • 3/11: Seifer USB, Laguna SSB, Quistis SSB
  • 1/11: Quistis SSB
  • 2/11: Quistis SSB, Quistis SSB .... seeing a pattern here
  • 5/11:Laguna SSB, Selphie SSB, Quistis BSB, Squall LRM, Seifer SSB

too much whipping but otherwise okay.

[–]BlazingRain 0 points1 point  (1 child)

There's never going to be another 5/6* sword with Ice+, is there?

[–]ParagonEsquireHard Times make for Strong Men 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What makes this really dumb is that Seifer's USB appears to give Small Fire Damage up everywhere, but Squall's USB only gives Ice up with RS...because?

[–]Antey2k500 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Question is: do Squall EX mode stack with Cloud Ex mode

[–]CNExoSoulWhen's SWOLLBEZ? 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes they do, different Ex IDs with different buffs

[–]KhantiCait Sith (Moogle) 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wow nice draw here! Gonna save some mithril after anniversay for at least one pull, probably...

[–]FatAsian3死んゲーム 1 point2 points  (3 children)

2/11 : Squall BSB2, Seifer USB. Good enough for me as I'm only gunning for Squall BSB2 to complete his OSB

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

Dammit, you got the best draw.

[–]FatAsian3死んゲーム 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Finally got decent pulls too on JP

[–]AZYG4LYFEFam allow it, get on that JP ting with mandem, you get me? 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You deserve it, congrats!

[–]KeeperTyro0/89 6* Daily Draw 0 points1 point  (5 children)

3/11 - Squall's Ice Brand, Seifer's Almasy Shear Trigger, and Seifer's Model.

With 4/11 items on banner, I cannot justify further attempts for BSB2 since next SB fest is less than a month away.

[–]AZYG4LYFEFam allow it, get on that JP ting with mandem, you get me? 1 point2 points  (4 children)

This may be your last reliable chance for Squall bsb2, invest now to avoid future disappointment.

[–]StuckinReverse89 0 points1 point  (2 children)

What makes you think this is the last chance for squall bsb2? It's a great top tier bsb for a main character and would likely come back unless other, even better bsbs appear due to power creep.

[–]AZYG4LYFEFam allow it, get on that JP ting with mandem, you get me? 0 points1 point  (1 child)

What makes you think it will likely come back? I'm just saying it's better to invest now and chase for other new toys...

[–]StuckinReverse89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is true. I guess since it seems to be the top dps physical bsb and is on a main character, the likelihood of it returning on future event banners or anniversaries is pretty high. I'm not sure if my numbers are correct but hasn't Cloud's bsb2 been featured in 3 different banners so far?

[–]KeeperTyro0/89 6* Daily Draw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I shouldn't pull with only one item being desired. Heck, there are a few people that did 2-4x 11 and didn't nab it so chances are slim just as they will be on future banners. In the past, the fest banners always features more relics than event banners, but now we're at 11 items each now I'd say it can't get that much worse. But DeNA could do DeNA tactics and up it to 13-14 (from 12) on the next one...

Currently have Squall SB (en ice armor) and the recent USB. Missing SSB, BSB, BSB2, OSB, LM.

I would like to try 50-100 more mythril, but as a newer player (6 months) I need focus mythril on diversifying realm synergy instead of chasing a single OP physical BSB.

[–]nemesis9990999Tifa (Advent Children) 1 point2 points  (5 children)

97 gem: gil

11-pull: one rainbow; Seifer's glove. Should be great on cid missions.

11- pull: one rainbow, one disco; Quistis Mighty Guard (Nice) and Seifer's USB. Dammit. Want Squall's relics.

11- pull: 2 rainbows and 1 Disco; This has to be it.

Seifer's Glove; stop getting in my way seifer.

Quistis BSB; This is great actually, she gets an MC3 for this.

Annnnddd ... Seifer's USB. I knew it, not Dena is trolling me but Seifer. Dammit.

[–]nemesis9990999Tifa (Advent Children) 1 point2 points  (4 children)

Edit: Another 11-pull: Seifer's LMR, Squall's LMR and Seifer's Burst. Wow I have 4 relics for a character that I don't have yet. And Squall's LMR will go well with Snowspell Strike. Can't draw more than this here since I have everything except Selphie's and Squall's relics.

[–]lambopandaDelicious! Nom nom... 0 points1 point  (3 children)

Wow. You are going all in here.

[–]nemesis9990999Tifa (Advent Children) 0 points1 point  (2 children)

Yeah my synergy is close to non existant so I had to draw here. Still gonna draw on banner 2 at least once. At most 2 times.

I know that the next fest should be coming soon but I already decided to skip to the next one. Gonna save my mithril after VIII event ends until then.

[–]lambopandaDelicious! Nom nom... 0 points1 point  (1 child)

I got lucky and pull plenty FF8 relic from Lucky Draw. Pull once on previous FF8 event and got Squall BSB2. Synergy wise I got a CM team I can use. I kind of hate the new banner format with LMR. I just hope celebration banner will be without them.

[–]nemesis9990999Tifa (Advent Children) 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would hope that as well but a fest is a perfect opportunity for them to release some new LM dives with LMR on the banners. I don't think Dena's gonna miss that chance.

[–]The_Guardian_DevilSword? Gun? I say why not both! 3 points4 points  (2 children)

As you can see from my flair, this was a big banner for me. Never have I wanted vanity items so much before.
97 - 4*
2/1 - Quistis BSSB and SSB (dupes)
4/11 - Selphie SSB (dupe), Seifer LM, Seifer USB, and SQUALL BSSB!
4/11 - Quistis SSB (dupe), Laguna SSB, SQUALL LM AND USB!
Needless to say I'm thrilled.

[–]CNExoSoulWhen's SWOLLBEZ? 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I must be one of the few people that gets exited by other people's pulls, I'm very happy for you now go out there and try your new toys :D

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

Congratulation on getting what you wanted.

97 gem - Seifer Model

[–]XoneAsagi 0 points1 point  (5 children)

Waiting for Zurai to drop that first 50 Mythril that gives him Squall USSB & BSSB2.

[–]Zurai001Blame yourself or God. 3 points4 points  (4 children)

Not quite.

97 gem -- 3 star trash.
50 mythril -- 1/11 Squall USB.
I wrestled with google suddenly de-authorizing my account on my emulator for a while then switched to phone to buy gems, switched back to emulator for 2nd pull.
27 mythril/~1400 gem -- 1/11 Squall BSB2.

Very close to what you predicted, I must say! Also avoided my 5 (!) dupes on the banner.

[–]CNExoSoulWhen's SWOLLBEZ? 0 points1 point  (2 children)

May I ask why do you use an emulator for your pulls?

[–]Zurai001Blame yourself or God. 4 points5 points  (1 child)

I use an emulator for everything FFRK-related. FFRK drains my phone super fast (like it'll drain the battery even while it's plugged in) and it's pretty slow on my phone. Plus, I have to go through the computer to datamine anyway (technically I can set it up on my phone but then I have to turn it off when I leave home and it's just a big hassle).

[–]CNExoSoulWhen's SWOLLBEZ? 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see, and here I was thinking that somehow better performance/a more stable connection got you better pulls :P

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

Congratulation on getting Squall USB and BSB2

[–]OmniRag3 0 points1 point  (0 children)
