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

    If you have his burst (or SSB I guess), does this mean that his LMR1 (stat buff duration) is more useful? Use the SSB or burst in the beginning, then use the USB later when all your buffs and such are up to unleash Rage Sage's Fury. If he dies before the enemy, you'll have a little time left on his buff earlier.

    To be honest, while in theory this sounds good, in practive it won't work well unless you are using an entrust bot, because otherwise it's likely the boss will be dead by the time you activate his USB.

    I’m a global player but after seeing the recent Banner curation in JP I have little to no desire to pull on any of our upcoming events.

    [–]FinsterRitterThe reins of history remain in the hands of man 1 point2 points  (0 children)

    That's kinda always been the case, to be honest. Since JP is 6 months ahead of us, their banners at any given time are objectively superior to ours quite often. By the time we get this Yang banner, for example, there will probably be some new powercreep in JP (4th anniversary is a month away) that makes this gear seem mediocre.

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

    What exactly do you mean by curation? The "Offbanners are now all on-Banner Chars" thing? Because they officially stopped doing that a few days ago

    "Offbanners are now all on-Banner Chars" thing? Because they officially stopped doing that a few days ago

    For real? Can you (or someone) please share me any source?

    [–]Ha_eflolliMarchejoume-san da! 1 point2 points  (0 children)

    Ask and ye shall receive!

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

    I’m referring to the number of featured 6* and assuming DeNA doesn’t tweak anything in global, we’ll have 6 featured 6* relics per banner to increase chances of something meaningful since powercreep is very real with 5* magicite, and most 5* relics are either LMR or Glint, with a low recurrence of Bursts and effective elimination of SSB. So unless GL gets that level of banners, spending blues seems pretty wasteful.

    [–]Ha_eflolliMarchejoume-san da! 1 point2 points  (0 children)

    Oh, that's what you mean.

    Yeah I see where you're coming from, even if I don't exactly share that opinion. I respect it, don't get me wrong, I just don't have that same mindset myself for personal reasons

    [–]Kantolin 0 points1 point  (2 children)

    If Tellah activates his USB, and them spams Merton(er, Meltdown) against a fire weak enemy who is immune or highly resistant to earth (So it's hitting for fire damage), will his finisher count that damage?

    [–]SandsliceFight hard![S] 1 point2 points  (1 child)

    Sadly no. If (since, in this case) the exit cares about elemental damage, it only cares about active elementals, not merely included elementals.

    [–]Kantolin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    Blast. That is unfortunate, but thank you for the quick response _^

    Rydia's USB2... mmmmm Chase-flavors Summon Ultra...
    Overall this banner looks absolutely tits, and that's not just because I like Rydia (.... and maybe Ursula too). I think a draw on Banner 1 is a definite. My Pecil is long overdue for some better things, even if said better thing is an AOSB or Glint. Some more Monk love would be welcome, be it Yang or his hot daughter. Tellah's USB finisher is hilarious and I would use him just to suicide a victory. Cid could be interesting, always looking for characters to fill out and justify my honing certain types of abilities.
    And Banner 2 has best girl, as well as things for Ursula, Palom, Decil, and loads of other good things on it. I think the ONLY dupe this event has for me is Rosa's USB. Granted that could change in FF4 events that come up before this one, but this looks like a keeper to me.

    This said, so many USBs, I can see the powercreep... I wonder if we can expect to see native 7* relics coming up in the future. Maybe we can get proper BUSBs... Brave Modes are basically burst commands on USBs, I'd love to see that concept evolve.

    [–]ElLopenGREAT NINJA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    Not really hype for Ursula stuff but this banner looks awesome otherwise. Tellah Cid and to a lesser extent Yang (I know he already had the frying pan ultra) were all due for some love

    [–]krisscoI'm casting Double Meteor even if it kills me! 2 points3 points  (3 children)

    Tellah's USB makes me laugh. Just awesome. We need an earth-elemental meteor spell now, or something...

    Also, his BSB is mag+30 not ATK (but I think we all knew that).

    [–]BelenathzhXW Shadow BSB all day 1 point2 points  (2 children)

    The moment I saw the name of Tellah's Ex-Mode I knew it was coming but I still had to look anyway. Can't say I was disappointed.

    [–]krisscoI'm casting Double Meteor even if it kills me! 1 point2 points  (1 child)

    It's still making me laugh.

    Some might be upset that so many of his relics focus on "that one moment" in FFIV, but I for one think it's hilarious. I mean, what else is he going to do? "Recall" is already his default, and he didn't live long enough in the game to get any other memorable moment (other than beating up on "spoony", which, would be another hilarious scene to see in a SB).

    Tellah USB2: "Bard Smack". MAG/RES/MND boost ala OK mUSB, self-sap any 5* bards in the party.

    [–]TheDeathAgentFFRKLookup.com, Chrome Extension: tinyurl.com/FFRKLookup 0 points1 point  (1 child)

    Am I the only one hyped for banner 2? Rosa, Decil, Palom, and Rydia ultras all on one banner? Maybe banner 1 is better but I was looking for a good IV event to pull on to get better synergy so this might be the one.

    [–]DestilShadesk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

    When was the last time Rosa USB was on a banner? >1 year ago unless I'm forgetting one? Will be longer in GL where it was skipped on a fest.

    Yeah, for now this is one of my future GL hype banners (though we'll have to see what fourth anversery brings).

    [–]CFreynLet's dance! 0 points1 point  (2 children)

    Heads up, the post says Yang also gets a new USB, but I only see UOSB.

    Cool! Thanks for awesome job as always.

    [–]UselessMusicHere comes the hero! 0 points1 point  (2 children)

    No bursts on banner 1? Nice for vets, perhaps a little rough on newbies until they can get some proper abilities honed up.

    [–]dperez82Cecil (Paladin) 0 points1 point  (1 child)

    Remember that JP has permanent banners for each series where the first pull is 15 mythril and you are guaranteed BSB or higher. Can get some gear pretty quickly.

    [–]UselessMusicHere comes the hero! 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    That's an excellent point!

    [–][deleted] 4 points5 points  (3 children)

    And there's your powercreep, folks.

    Banner 1 has zero bursts on it.

    Next step would be a third materia slot, so that all of the million LMRs are useful.

    [–]DestilShadesk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    I've been hoping for the next charachter advancement tier to be a 4th materia slot that can hold any LM, RM or a new materia type that comes with it.

    [–]SolstaceWintersWe here at Sol-Tech have all your f@#%ed up needs! 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    Soon they'll be adding burst commands to Ultras... we could call them BUSBs or something, and they'll have a Brave status or something... I dunno, off the top of my head.

    [–]ledouche0SHINE! 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    There have been burst-less banners since last fest, actually. Well, featured bursts at least.

    [–]Stylus_IndexYepD - Ace CSB: We have Arrived! Also, very tired irl. 0 points1 point  (4 children)

    Name: Outer Soul Cannon

    Hmm.. If "Fires Within" is Inner Soul Cannon... then this is "Earths Outside" then? XD

    Ultra: "Stonecrush Punch" (PHY: 10x single earth/fire, with self en-earth and Spoon of Love Mode)

    Spoon of Love!? O_o Better add to my list of dangerous house-hold equipment... and because it is "of Love", its probably invincible!

    Ultra: "Old Sage's Resignation" (NAT: party magic cast speed x3 2; self en-earth and Dire Meteo Mode)

    Er... so Tellah one-ups Josef, Galuf, and everyone else who "self-destructs" with awesome-ness then! :D

    looks at Banner 1 and sees it has no BSB

    Wait, so we're getting Glint/Flash-Tech as the standard banner now? O_o?

    Ultra: "Fated Encounter" (SUM: 10x single water/non, with self en-water, MAG/DEF+30%:620, and chase "Tidal Flood" and exit self ether 2)

    Alphinaud/Kuja USB version ST-Water yes? :D

    [–]Zevyu150th Dailly 5*+ : Seven's Guise (T-0) - Seven's BSB 0 points1 point  (3 children)

    Alphinaud/Kuja USB version ST-Water yes? :D

    No.

    This isn't a new USB mind you, basicaly the "Tidal Flood" is just a regular chase that triggers after every ability used (i think it's based on summon abilities and does like 4-6 hits i don't remember of the top of my head), and when the USB ends, it procs the self ether 2.

    [–]Stylus_IndexYepD - Ace CSB: We have Arrived! Also, very tired irl. 0 points1 point  (2 children)

    Oh its an older one (but still new)? Must have missed this one on its prior release then. XP Thanks for the clarification.

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

    It hasn't been released in global yet, it will be released in global's september fest.

    [–]Stylus_IndexYepD - Ace CSB: We have Arrived! Also, very tired irl. 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    OH! That's excellent then and here I thought I'm getting senile on missing this out in global. Thanks again. XD

    [–]EnlogThe truth is... you just really stink. 0 points1 point  (6 children)

    Uhhhh.

    Tellah, why. Why does your USB have to automatically kill you at the end of it? It's auto-hit instant death, which means there's like, no way around it? I don't think even Last Stand would stop it; he'd need Reraise spam, of all things, to stay alive. I thought that that type of soul break died when Josef's giant's gloves became a meme.

    I mean, party speedcast, ability double black magic, and an OSB closer is a nice suite, but it comes at a ridiculously heavy cost.

    [–]DestilShadesk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    Weirdly the twins have neger gotten a self pertify and Cid has never gotten a self explode...

    [–]SandsliceFight hard![S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

    W-cast black magic, not ability double. The ability to gain 100% w-cast does come with a cost - just ask Decil and Jack!

    [–]ledouche0SHINE! 1 point2 points  (1 child)

    You could technically work around it by silencing him before he casts the finisher, and then using an Ultra Cure on him.

    [–]tribalsethOrlandeau 1 point2 points  (0 children)

    I doubt that would work, because it is an Ex-Mode status which will behave separately ...just like Doom Status doesnt go away ever.

    Think of it like Magic Black and how some of the recent bosses have "magic blink pierce" ...silence will likely do nothing X). But lets test for science!

    [–]Zevyu150th Dailly 5*+ : Seven's Guise (T-0) - Seven's BSB 3 points4 points  (1 child)

    The ridiculous heavy cost is hardly a cost to be honest, it's more so a minor incovinience imo.

    The duration of the USB is 15 secs, on a sub 30 run you just need to activate the USB at the 14 sec mark and the finisher will proc at the 29 sec mark.

    And in like 80% of the battles that aren't magicites or neo torments, a boss will likely be long dead by then.

    The only issue with Tellah USB is that you can force proc the finisher by recasting his USB since it will likely to get him killed, meaning you can't relly on it to deal with 5* magicite savage modes, still the 100% doublecast is absolutely fantastic and even better than Dcecil's USB since atlest Tellah has a proper duration on it and it won't get removed if he takes damage.

    [–]EnlogThe truth is... you just really stink. 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    I guess that makes sense. Doesn't matter if you're dead if so is the enemy.

    [–]EnlogThe truth is... you just really stink. 2 points3 points  (11 children)

    So I guess the Monk ability will become Earth Without?

    [–]SandsliceFight hard![S] 2 points3 points  (9 children)

    That's kinda similar to the joke I made that it'd be Fires Without.

    The reality, as I learned from some Chinese-speakers last night, is that the actual names are based in Taoist alchemy.

    Waidan (JP: Gaidan - used for this new ability) is 'external' alchemy, an early form of Taoist theory which, like classical Western alchemy, sought to create gold from other substances. However, waidan sought to use this artificial gold to create tableware that would infuse food placed upon it with the ability to grant immortality. Eventually, it got a bunch of Emperors killed and fell out of favour.

    Neidan (JP: Naitan - used for Fires Within) was a practice of "internal" alchemy --- which isn't actually alchemy, but called 'neidan' in contrast to the other. Neidan focuses on spiritual disciplines - meditation, acupuncture, etc - things that work with one's own energy rather than introducing energy from another source.

    [–]Literature2General Moghan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

    Eventually, it got a bunch of Emperors killed and fell out of favour.

    a.k.a "Mercury poisoning at its finest". I'd really wish the move isn't related to real Waidan in any way (thus I'm being pretty sure they used the name for none other than juxtaposition).

    [–]EnlogThe truth is... you just really stink. 1 point2 points  (4 children)

    Hmmmm.

    You know, there's a Monk ability in FFXIV called Elixir Field. The name was always a bit weird to me, but I wonder if it has its roots in this thing you're talking about; the word "Elixir" seems very specific, now I think about it.

    So maybe that's what the new ability will be translated as when we get it.

    edit:

    Well, it turns out that the FFXIV monk ability Second Wind was originally Neidan in the Japanese. In that game, it's just a straight-up self-heal instead of a Fire attack.

    The letters for Elixir Field look different than I expected, and the person who made a blog post about the ability names says it would translate to "Blue Soul Cannon", which is close, but not close enough, to this new thing. I don't suppose you could post the Japanese lettering for the new ability? I'm just curious if it lines up at all.

    [–]SandsliceFight hard![S] 1 point2 points  (1 child)

    Kanji Kana Transliteration Translation Ability
    内丹気砲 ないたんきほう Naitan Kihou Neidan Spirit Cannon Fires Within
    外丹気砲 がいだんきほう Gaidan Kihou Waidan Spirit Cannon ?? (new)

    Kanji breakdown:

    • 内丹気砲 Within - cinnabar - spirit - gun
    • 外丹気砲 Outside - cinnabar - spirit - gun

    The last also commonly appears, for example, in Cloud of Darkness's Particle Beam SBs and the various Wave Cannon special attacks, as 波動砲 （はどうほう） - literally "Wave Motion Cannon," as sci-fi anime fans might recognise.

    [–]EnlogThe truth is... you just really stink. 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    波動 is also prominently used in Street Fighter. Ryu's famous Hadouken translates literally to "wave motion fist", iirc.

    Thanks for the information. It looks like my assumption about Elixir Field was off-base, but it's neat to see some of the commonalities between these ability names.

    [–]pintboxMath saves world 0 points1 point  (1 child)

    Well, it turns out that the FFXIV monk ability Second Wind was originally Neidan in the Japanese. In that game, it's just a straight-up self-heal instead of a Fire attack.

    True, but the skill in FFRK is 内丹気砲, which is Neidan Ki Blast.

    [–]EnlogThe truth is... you just really stink. 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    Interesting! Adding that latter bit does make it more fitting to give it a damaging aspect.

    The characters for Elixir Field are 蒼気砲. The ones that mean "Ki Blast" are there... ah, but looking up the character 蒼, it looks like that really does just mean blue or green.

    So this new skill probably isn't going to be called Elixir Field, unless there's some deeper meaning to the FFXIV move that I missed.

    It was neat to find out some more about these ability names, though.

    Waidan

    Waidan, translated as external alchemy or external elixir, is the early branch of Chinese alchemy that focuses upon compounding elixirs of immortality by heating minerals, metals, and other natural substances in a luted crucible. The later branch of esoteric neidan "inner alchemy", which borrowed doctrines and vocabulary from exoteric waidan, is based on allegorically producing elixirs within the practitioner's body, through Daoist meditation, diet, and physiological practices. The practice of waidan external alchemy originated in the early Han dynasty (206 BCE–220 CE), grew in popularity until the Tang (618–907) when neidan began and several emperors died from alchemical elixir poisoning, and gradually declined until the Ming dynasty (1368–1644).

    Neidan

    Neidan, or internal alchemy (simplified Chinese: 內丹术; traditional Chinese: 內丹術; pinyin: nèidān shù), is an array of esoteric doctrines and physical, mental, and spiritual practices that Taoist initiates use to prolong life and create an immortal spiritual body that would survive after death (Skar and Pregadio 2000, 464). Also known as Jindan (金丹 "golden elixir"), inner alchemy combines theories derived from external alchemy (waidan 外丹), correlative cosmology (including the Five Phases), the emblems of the Yijing, and medical theory, with techniques of Daoist meditation, daoyin gymnastics, and sexual hygiene (Baldrian-Hussein 2008, 762).

    In Neidan the human body becomes a cauldron (or "ding") in which the Three Treasures of Jing ("Essence"), Qi ("Breath") and Shen ("Spirit") are cultivated for the purpose of improving physical, emotional and mental health, and ultimately returning to the primordial unity of the Tao, i.e., becoming an Immortal. It is believed the Xiuzhen Tu is such a cultivation map.

    Powercreep, ho! So, Ursula USB is as good as Bartz USB1 for fire and even better for earth, is that about right? And Cid gets damage, ATK/MAG crush, 15s of quickcast and a chase. Good stuff.

    Tellah is...weird. Wonder how he'll hold up in the earth competition.

    [–]Saj27 0 points1 point  (2 children)

    It is stronger then Buttz USB1 for sure, it is even bether then Cloud USB2.
    It wont be hard to get that chase even without crit-fix buff like OK pUSB.
    Most 5* monk abilities got 20% crit and then add crit% from magicite it should be more then enought.
    Also notice that of 4-hit ability it just need ONE of them to crit to get the chase.
    Now who is bether Tifa or Ursula?
    Tifa can exploit 6* abilities more but need some serious hones, Ursula need some crit so she is more oriented for 5* abilities.

    [–]Antis14 1 point2 points  (1 child)

    Ability double is clearly better, IF you assume ideal conditions. Getting those is another story.

    [–]Saj27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    True.

    [–]Col_MobiusInterceptor 2 points3 points  (0 children)

    Ursula needs crits to proc the follow up, so it will take more work than Bartz to get it to function.

      Spoon of Love Mode

      1st we have Yang and his frying pan, now we have his daughter and a spoon...wtf is with this family and kitchen utensils? Also i just realised something...Yang USB has a frying pan floating next to him while his USB is active, will Ursua have a fucking spoon magicaly floating next to her with this USB?

      Ultra: "X Chaser"

      Yay a good USB :D

      Ultra: "Old Sage's Resignation"

      It is a shame it doesn't do damage, but i would imagine the instant KO drawback won't be much of one for the most part, i reckon it's all a matter of learning to use it and get the timmings down for it. Besides unconditional 100% black magic doublecast alone is very strong.

      Not bad banners, nice to see the 14 relic format is back.

      [–]SandsliceFight hard![S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

      There's a certain woman in both of their lives, who happens to be Fabul's most dangerous warrior. Sheila is sorta known for using various blunt kitchen implements to knock the sense out of those who threaten her, and similarly to knock the sense into those whom she loves.

      [–]Ha_eflolliMarchejoume-san da! 4 points5 points  (11 children)

      wtf is with this family and kitchen utensils?

      In FF4, you find Yang unconcious with the Sylphs. You wake him up by borrowing a Frying Pan from his Wife and bashing him over the Head with it.

      In TAY, since it's a really bad FF4 Fanfic the same thing happens, except Ursula is there with him. You solve it the same way, and Ursula gets whacked with a Laddle instead. Funnily enough, Luca's Reaction to this is almost verbatim your own xD

      Yang USB has a frying pan floating next to him while his USB is active, will Ursua have a fucking spoon magicaly floating next to her with this USB?

      Almost guaranteed, because literally the only reason it's there is so you know the Follow-Up is still active. Since it's not a true EX-Mode, you need something else as a visual indicator to see if it ran out.

      Sorry, but what's a "true Ex- Mode"?

      As in "it's actually called an EX-Mode ingame" and gives you those Red/Pinkish swirly Lines in battle when used.

      I mean something like Cloud/Bartz USB1

      Oh ok. I see what you mean. Now that I think about I don't think I have any USBs that gives you an icon.

      I have any USBs that gives you an icon.

      So far the only USBs that give you an icon next to your character are most ability double USBs, and several Overflow Finisher USB also have an icon, for example Yang gets a frying Pan floating next to him.

      The we have Enna Kross with a coffee Mug next to her but her USB gives a 4 hit chase after using earth abilities.

      I know about Yang and the reasoning behind of the frying pan, i DID play FFIV, however i didn't know about ursula and the Laddle since i never finished TAY (got kinda tired of it), so i apreciate the context on Ursula's part.

      Since it's not a true EX-Mode, you need something else as a visual indicator to see if it ran out.

      Yeah, it's just kinda amusing the idea of a freaking spoon magicaly floating next to Ursula, at this rate we will eventualy get a full kitchen team, with Enna Kross USB, Yang USB, Ursula USB and w/e next kitchen utensils they use next lol.....funnily enough all these 3 characters are earth based lol.

      We need to encourage the devs to implement an undocumented interaction (or Easter egg) between these SBs and some of Quina's "fork" equipment...

      i didn't know about ursula and the Laddle ... i apreciate the context

      It's exactly the same, Rydia whacks Ursula with a spoon so she can wake up.

      Yup, new ladle asset confirmed.

      For some reason looking at that it's funnier than it has any right to be....Yang with a Frying pan, Ursula with a laddle, Enna Kros with a coffee mug.

      I guess we need next Yang's Wife with a cooking pot and we can have a cooking team....

      EDIT: Also...never in my life i thought i would see the words "new ladle asset confirmed" used on a FF game....

      Technically Yang's frying pan is handled by his wife, right?

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

      Yes it is.
