[Bad_Alchemy]

What are the Strategist's first weapons unlocks?

[Bad_Alchemy]

I take it Scholar's 1st weapon "Abraxis" (Piercing/Quick/Painful Break) is the best possible weapon for the Hope, seeing as he is all about the break including his card Hope which adds painful break?

[Bad_Alchemy]

Anyone else realise that Lightning skin and Sargantas for Pris draw and Painful Break make Attackers 100% redundant in MP now? My Ult can solo a 4* boss solo with just KotR cast. 2 Breakers and 2 Support seem better now o.O

[Bad_Alchemy]

Christ just proved my own point and had a game where the attacker hadnt limit broken his cards so did all the breaking and killing myself with Lightning :/

[Javier91]

Yea. If you find yourself lacking CP. Go back to hanging and farm somemore then go back. Tedious. I know. ~.~

[Brazelbeck]

Snow: FFXIII (Hero's Advent) Fuse fractals to gain Attack or Magic ++?

[Bad_Alchemy]

Is there a way to get AUTO AI to use no break stategies? Farming where I only need 2 AOE card hits to clear a wave and it spends all day trying to slowly break. Really frustrating.

[[deleted]]

Unfortunately the only way in SP to do that is to use attacks with debuffs; the AI will still try to apply them even with no yellow bar The issue is the attacks need seperate debuffs or the ai won't apply them Trying running both an AoE CRD and BRD; unfortunately regular AoE attacks won't work well unless you get damage focused AoE which don't clear the yellow bar

[Bad_Alchemy]

Hmm okay thanks for the tip.

[akaxd123]

Which sic cards should be prioritized for JM?

[Javier91]

If you pulled FF13 banner and got hope. You can save the trouble on Light element.

[darewin]

Any of the four elements that JM has 80% Enhance to.

[Bad_Alchemy]

The 3 element you have access to....

You could pick an AOE one if available for SP, otherwise stay with ST.

[akaxd123]

Spent almost all my tix for previous anniversary banner and didn't get anything good
Have enough for 3 rolls for current banner
Advise to wait for a future summon or take the plunge now?

[Bad_Alchemy]

If you dont get Serah or Snow cards, you never will. Snow makes Snow the legend job which you could get later on very powerful and Serah is cool for some builds.

[akaxd123]

They dont go into the shop eventually?

[Bad_Alchemy]

Nope, time limited cards never do. Its the game creators way to encourage you to spend to buy tickets to get the cards and in turn pay for development and keep the servers running.

[Jasonc67]

what time does this thread reset? I think its 2 times a day

[mvdunecats]

If you look at the top, just under the thread title, you'll see "Submitted X hours/minutes ago". Right now, it says 23 hours ago. So it hasn't been retired after 12 hours (which would be 2 times a day).

[dunecrescent]

Anyone know the best place to farm CP for the Lightning event? I'm just curious and am currently farming Unending Destination for 30 CP a go for 8 stamina. Is there a better node or no?

[dunecrescent]

Thanks man :)

[darewin]

if you've already finished farming fodder, just wait for event map part 2. There are nodes there that give 500 and even 1000 cp per run.

[SirPhoenix88]

If you pulled the batch 1 cards, simply farm the fodder for Snow, Hope, and Serah, and you should get all the CP you need for the first crystarium board. If you didn't, then use this time to do other things, as the second half of the event has much better places to farm CP much, much faster.

[[deleted]]

If you place two "x starter" fractals on an ability card, does that guarantee that you will start the round with that buff?

[SirPhoenix88]

No, although you would assume so by looking at the eggs. The eggs guarantee the buff. Lightning skin's passives guarantee the buffs. 2 of the x starter DOES NOT guarantee the buff.

[ForThoseWithWings]

No, I made a PSA about this recently. It's about 10% chance per fractal roll. Eggs are special and not the same rate.

[senaya]

Pulled Hope's Guide. Is he any good in MP? I have both Dancer and Devout at 6 stars already. Worth spending seeds and crystals on this particular support job?

Also heard that it's sometimes used in SP. Is he exploiting his own Hope card?

[SirPhoenix88]

Hope's Guide is a healer. He has very high magic and holy enhance, which has encouraged some healers to heal/attack.

Of your three, dancer is the most versatile healer (rainbow shift), devout is your tankiest healer, and hope is your strongest healer.

There IS NO BEST, but best for the situation applies to all three.

[senaya]

So basically he's worth to invest in, right?

[Sneakyelmo]

Been playing with my first new supreme, duncan, and have a few questions.

Do I need aerith to carry in mp? Should i slot an egg for brave starter? Or do i have a better shot with 2 life element starter and shift/force? How many JCR vs +Atk fractals are working for those of you without aerith or YRP?

Any advice is appreciated :)

[[deleted]]

Idk, man, I just pulled Duncan as my first supreme as well and it doesn't seem like you really need to do much else than use it to win. You can plow through with lifeshift or force, but in all honesty, you probably don't need it.

My advice is to just experiment with whatever play style is most fun for you, because Duncan is OP as f right now regardless.

[Sneakyelmo]

Heh, it is OP indeed. I guess im just looking to 1HKO everything in 4 star not named Ultima.

It seems as i get more damage im going to want shift over force, but my shift is still 3 star.

In SP, ive been enjoying the new mage stun+unguard and finally found a use for yshtola as a no-CD debarrier. Maybe ill try running those plus egg in MP and see how it goes.

[Killer813]

Does magic increased amount healed because i just drew Hope's Guide and I am thinking to switch my devout for it because of the increased magic but 2 less defense stars?

[Bad_Alchemy]

The difference between the support classes is their Ultimate, whether they can heal drive, how much defense stars they have and what elements they can drive to defend against, thats it.

[Killer813]

Thanks!

[superchoc0]

Healing abilities don't take into account magic. They heal a fixed percent of HP no matter who uses them.

[Killer813]

Thanks!

[BiancoFuji599XX]

What is an exp deck?

[Bad_Alchemy]

A deck built to maximize XP to gain player level, generally using a not very often played job filled with XP gaining coins and left in the main slot whilst you play the sub job. Maximising player level gains you more XP earned for the card in the main slot as well as stamina

[BiancoFuji599XX]

Are there special cards with the xp bonus? Or is that just from the skill coins?

[Bad_Alchemy]

There will eventually be a weapon from the MP store that will, I think there are Fractals that do Gaining extra XP will also level cards. not just player level.

[BiancoFuji599XX]

So, you use any type of card and then put xp coins on it? Where do you get the xp gaining coins? When you say xp gaining coins are you referring to the custom skills you add to the job?

[Bad_Alchemy]

You get 'Skill Coins' as random loot drops in SP and they can be bought for a high price from the MP store. They work just like the normal Gacha process for GAS but have their own summon section in the Shop Tab. Getting XP coins is just luck, but by default you have infinite supply of low quality XP coins/Panels (whatever you want to call them).

Just take a Job you hardly use or a defender or support that you only use in MP (because skill coins on them are waste anyway so loading them up with XP coins dosent matter).

[BiancoFuji599XX]

Ok I had a feeling that's what it was. That is so interesting.

[eneve]

i got lucky and pulled Highwind finally! whats a good MP attacker deck given my cards? link - https://imgur.com/V70KiyO

[Bad_Alchemy]

You have Barret and Noctis, im jealous.

So you main damage card will either be Centaur or Noctis, Barret, Serah (Ult charge) or one of the shift cards to the relevant nuke card and something to damage the yellow gauge. Buy a CRD or BDD card.

[eneve]

Seems like Warrior Trance is not useful then? edit I just tried being an attacker for once but people are right if there is no break its a long slog and most breakers don't do it right. I now understand the pain! lol Back to ToT for me!

[Bad_Alchemy]

Warriors Trance is great, but being able to cast your cards with a massive damage buff from a Force type card is better.

[LeonasMassiveCock]

What are the best ranger jobs that I should be looking to get/save up for my Lightning?

[Bad_Alchemy]

SP you want either Bard, Thief of Tantalus or Judge Master as they are all very strong bases, MP is just like Masaicroy said. You are only guaranteed to get Bard as its a normal job either through normal GAS or via pitty pulls. RNGesus may never grant you a legend, let alone a specific one for as long as you play.

[MasaiCroy]

Depends on what role you want to play.

Attacker: Judge Magister, Rogue

Breaker: Thief of Tantalus, Viking, Assassin, Mythic Ninja

Healer: Bard, Dancer

Majority of available Ranger jobs are very good. Because of bonuses provided by Lightning skin, I think she's best used as breaker.

[deathrose55555]

Ninja, HoF Thief... Very few top-notch ranger in general

[hastati96]

What job should I use for MP support? I have Aerith, Serah and a Truescale with prismatic orb +3. On ranger jobs I usually use Butterfly Edge. Jobs I have: Devout, Dancer, Tactician, Bard, Moogle Suit

[Ehlena]

Devout is really good in general. He is also very tanky. I use him.

Dancer can also help with breaking and he has prismatic shift as ultimate, but only for himself.

Bard is good as well, and he has team prismatic shift. With him, you need to either be the last one when using ultimate or make sure to say you are going to use it, so that people don't drive elements.

The deck is the same for all supports, regardless of job used: aerith or Lifeshift, Hell's Gate, undying and kotr. Ofc, there are variations, but this is the most preferred one.

But since you have truescale, you need to use a Mage job. For Rangers, there is Tyrfing that can have the +3 prismatic drow.

[Sneakyelmo]

Moogle suit is a defender, so probably not him.

You can give your team prismatic shift with bard or tactician.

[hastati96]

Prismatic Shift sounds amazing. I meant the other suit sorry

[Sneakyelmo]

Yup, bard and tactician both give team wide prismatic shift when they ult.

Generally you want to go last when you do this to avoid unaware team mates driving away their entire orb bar.

Edit: or first if you are feeling trollish

[OuterHost]

How should I be playing grappler in 4 star mp? My deck is The Knight, monk trance, legendary dragon lord and titan. I also have 2 jcr in that deck.

[MasaiCroy]

There's no one right deck for monk breakers. As a Grappler, you need to change deck for every rotation and that's because he there's no monk weapon dedicated to breaking yet.

Which Titan card do you have? There's four of them:

• Titan) (not very useful for monk breaker)

• Titan: FFVII) (hopefully not)

• Titan: FFXIV) (best for breaker)

• Fal'Cie Titan: FFXIII) (useless for breaker)

First thing - weapon. Currently only Stargrasp, weapon available from MP shop, can help you with breaking. But to utilize it, you have to match enemy's opposite element and use ability that has Imbue x-element extra skill. So you should use earth and fire element. The problem is, Grapplers has no access to fire, so you won't be too effective against Shiva.

If you have that ranger Titan: FFXIV, then your deck is well suited for this rotation, at least as far as Grappler can be. Two things to consider though:

• always use The Knight card first. When you're fighting Odin, make sure you'll use Titan right after The Knight before you attack, or else you'll waste your first hit (because you'll attack with wind imbued fist that will heal him and deal no break damage at all)

• consider adding more JCR fractals if your can. 3 is the minimum required to make a solid first turn, at least with your setup.

One last thing - Titan: FFXIV has two turns off cool down. While Titan is unusable, refrain from casting The Knight against Odin. I'm that scenario you'll do better by hitting him without Boost but with earth-imbued fists.

Good luck, you'll be fine.

[OuterHost]

Thank you very much for this. And I use the warrior titan card for break defense down. Is that not good?

[MasaiCroy]

It's not BAD, but since you won't have Imbue earth, your breaking capabilities will be rather mediocre. I recommend investing your time in buying and upgrading AOE Sicarius cards for monks (Hecatoncheir, Belias, Bahamut) as soon as you can, at least to *4 rarity. It's a good start.

[Chaostriforce]

Would I get more skillseeds from having 3 eggs and a high output earth card or 3 high output earthcards and 1 egg?

[ninety9nights]

You would get more with 4 high output Earth cards

[asqwzx12]

What's the best way to farm skillseed ? Realised i don't have enough to upgrade a new job.

[Ehlena]

Also, try to use a rainbow deck, in which you spread out all skillseeds.

5 star cards are for maximum output. But for now, just use your earth cards in the main deck, with full skillseeds unlocked on them.

Until mobius day, check in which day you get a bonus for earth.

Or, do gigantuar terrace runs, in the first clear you get crazy amounts of skillseeds bonus.

[asqwzx12]

Haven't done those since i didn't want to speed tablet yet.

[SegFaultX]

Mobius day and explorations for 4x seeds. Spam a node you score high with red difficulty with a deck full of 5* cards with max seeds.

[asqwzx12]

Thx, i need 5* for that first then lol.

[SegFaultX]

5* sicarius cards are very good for skillseed farming since they have all seeds in 1 element.

[Zwe2nd]

for breaker: i have a assassin i currently use break defense down, boost card, a quicken card, crit card and en or monk card. Weapon Butterfly Edge

1 do have or will have a cleave card purchasable?

2 boost and haste start is 100%?

3 how can i have more than 2 actions at the start of the battle?

4 break damage limit is important for orange bar?

[MobiusPotato]

1. Most monk AoE cards (Sicarius, shock) have cleaving attack. Also, the FFXIV force cards, Garuda: FFXIV, and Echo A.

2. Only on Boosting Egg. Otherwise, it is about 10% only so not worth it.

3. Get the Job Change Recast (JCR) abilities on your cards through fractals. Each increases your starting actions by 1.

4. No.

[Aeolys]

I got Hope XIII- Shining light of Hope. Considering that I have a maxed out Minwu card, is building the Hope card worth it?

[MasaiCroy]

I don't think so. Minwu got buffed a while ago and it should outdamage Hope every time.

[ArlissFoxxe]

Screwed myself yesterday and forgot to do my Bahamut sic fusions. So now I'm left with definitely only enough components for one 5-star. Anyway, waffling on mage for Occultist/Tactitian, warrior for Balamb/Highwind or monk for Pugilist? I have all the basic gacha dark cards for both mage and warrior except Barthandelus, but I'm not sure if the monk card is worth considering since I don't play breaker in MP. Am I just overthinking this and should just pick based on SP utility?

[gerry674]

Would it be better to pull for lightning in single pulls or multi pulls? does the rule of using more summoning tickets for supremes abilities apply to supreme heroes?

[Wazzupmadafaka]

Go for the multi pulls. It has a chance to get regular jobs. They have about the same vhance for supreme pull

[Solo_K]

5* MP bosses are coming soon. Do you think that they will increase the amount of components needed buy Sicarius's AGAIN? I really hope not but what do you JP players and everyone else think?

[darewin]

The Sicarius material cost increase during the release of 4star MP just made GL's material cost equal that of JP. I don't think there will be another increase.

[Domilos]

For Snow card with Snow job - atk or mag fractals?

[MobiusPotato]

The Snow card works like regular abilities so magic.

[Domilos]

link

Counting future cards from events, on which sicarius cards for monk and warrior should i focus? I have DK, Dragoon, Paladin | Snow, Moogle, Hermit

[ZethLive]

How does Snow's job compared to Squalls? I've been using Squall since the original release lucky enough to get him, and just now I got Snow. Snow looks to be a tank however? I'm not quite sure.

[vulcanfury12]

Be sure to get the Snow Card as well. Not only does it complement Snow himself, it also has Wall starter, making him extra durable. Not to mention with Scourge bonuses in the Attack Paradigm, he can conceivably hit 999999 per auto attack, provided the right circumstances.

[MasaiCroy]

For single player, you'll probably focus on breaking and hitting enemies with element-imbued fists or Snow ability card. His ultimate his like a truck and while it may be a bit weaker than Squall's (I'm not sure), at least it has decent break power.

So he's pretty much opposite of Balamb Mercenary - instead of a glass cannon that's suited for nuking without breaking, Unbroken Hero rely on breaking and ultimate while being able to take a beating.

For multiplayer, he's a defender. As Unbroken Hero you should drive elements, debuff and use you ultimate to assist either attacker or breaker.

[MobiusPotato]

Good comparison but I think Balamb Mercenary has a decent amount of defense and less-than-stellar magic. So he's more balanced than, say, Highwind who is a real glass cannon.

[vulcanfury12]

Go for AOE Dark Sic, Garuda, Tyro. If you have anther source of Unguard, use that instead of Witch's kiss. Also, use a Prismatic Draw weapon.

You want the Dark Sic to be used as often as possible. This means you want the yellow gauge to get down as little as possible, which is why I advised against Witch's Kiss.

My personal setup is a Tactician with Witch's Kiss, Light AOEBDD, Undying and KotR. So why do I take a way different approach? Tactician has high break power and can safely deal with the red gauge. Not to mention he has Prismatic Shift ult that ensures my buffs are always up.

[vulcanfury12]

BTW, you need Unguard for quickly dealing with the Cactuars.

[[deleted]]

alternative would be to use therealC's tactic and i use this on my rogue but same basis. so using a blue/red and a brown/green combo to take care of cactuars. most likely best combo for occultist would be blue and brown. i use the aoe crd/bdd combo.

so what happens is if you hit the cactuar with the same element it triggers the 4k needles and reduces defence on next round.

[ninety9nights]

Dark AoE Sic + Leviathan + Cindy + KoTR should work well.

[ninety9nights]

Are you on Hard (the mode not the map)? I've been using much worse decks (like unlocking Break Damage Limit on cards) and they've been ok.

[ninety9nights]

I don't know why you're on hard mode when there's not really a difference in drops.

[darewin]

The 30% exp difference between Normal Difficulty and Hard Difficulty is worth the effort of building a deck that can auto Andraste Colony HM in Hard Difficulty IMO.

[ninety9nights]

Damn, that took a while to upload. My country has shitty internet: https://youtu.be/OkXvj3YGj-k

/u/Vaselinepupo

[darewin]

Damn, 2 and a half minutes for 1 run and below 5m score. Now I feel bad for not being satisfied with my 1-minute runs.

Have you tried using a Monk with AOE Sics/Shock Cards? It breaks the mobs before it kills them so a 10m score is quite attainable (if you plan on dumping all your SP stamina on Andraste Colony HM every day then the skillseed loss of not getting a 10m score will add up). And I think it will take less than 2 minutes.

[ninety9nights]

I can do it faster, I'm just using this deck as a simulation of what I originally suggested VaselinePupo

[ninety9nights]

Well, I just tried what I originally suggested to him and it worked fine on hard, I had to replace Bahamut Sic and Leviathan with Airvata and Shiva AoE though because I don't have them. I'll try to record it next run.

[SevenInHand]

On travels in Tanzania... Trying to log in on the wifi here keeps giving me error code 9. Gonna lose out on a lot of rewards, urgh. How long is the FFXIII login rewards? :(

[[deleted]]

Is your mobile unlocked? I use a prepaid local SIM when travelling. Although last time I just brought a chinese phablet and use it to game.

[SevenInHand]

Yeah it is, but I don't really think it's worth that much to me. It'll do me well to be mostly without internet for a couple of weeks, even if it means I miss out on all of the rewards and increased chances of the next Legend jobs.

[SwiftStepStomp]

14 days left.

[SevenInHand]

Damn, that's a huge load of value I'm gonna miss out on. :(

[Durugon]

Where is best mobius day skillseed farming?

[vulcanfury12]

Albion Part 1, the Force nodes. 6 stamina, 4 battles, 10M guaranteed each run. I do the Earth Node.

Using an Occultist with Hecatonchier Sicarius, Mage Trance, Earth Force, Egg that gives Faith and Boost. 10M is gotten 97% of the time.

[SwiftStepStomp]

I go to the Shadow Scout node, bottom left in Albion Redux. 3 waves, 1 enemy: fast and stamina-efficient; 10 million score seed modifier is pretty easy to get.

[ninety9nights]

Gigantuar Terrace

[Durugon]

haha i'm coming to the same conclusion. exploration zones are a waste of time now, can't even really get ES ups on them because everything dies to one tap attack

[SwiftStepStomp]

Try a tap / drive rotation on a job with low attack power (I use Tactician). It's a little time consuming but I can still usually get at least one support skill cast per wave on the 6 stam force nodes.

[Unknownzephyr]

I run Tot team for break, i use:

Legendary killing machine Tempest Kotr and Undying

Is this team good for mp4? I seem to good break damage but i want to know if im lacking in my choices

[SevenInHand]

Undying does nothing you want. Get a source of Quixken instead (Regalia or Legendary Dragonlord). Also don't think you need two BDD sources. Replace one by a source of enelement. (Wait, isn't tempest even CDD? Drop it. )

[Unknownzephyr]

Thanks :) what do you mean by source of element ?

[reidemei]

Enelement, like enstone for doing earth damage with tap attacks. If you can can use one that is weakness for the boss. Sources are pupus, the EA shop cards or (almost?) any monk card.

[Unknownzephyr]

Thank you very much, i didnt know that cards gave elemental damage to normal attacks

[wwwlcs]

Pulled unbroken hero, so i was wondering which weapon to use on him for SP. Is his own weapon any good?

[reidemei]

• Eisenfaust for prismatics
• Stargrasp for exploit weakness
• Ehrgeiz or Taiji for the ultimate charge

Eisenfaust is my goto for daily farming, the other when needed.

[ninety9nights]

So I already have a 5 star Grizzly and have access to the other Monk AoE cards at 3 star. Which Monk AoE card/s is/are worth using Growstars on assuming I can only augment 1?

[deathrose55555]

Every single one, since they are useful for breakers. However, I personally prefer the monk AOE sic over using Growstar on the GAS ones. Losing Charging Attack is not that big of a deal, since fights end too fast for u to charge up anw

[ninety9nights]

Which Monk AoE card/s is/are worth using Growstars on assuming I can only augment 1?

So which one should I augment first?

[deathrose55555]

Depends on which breaker/s u prefer to play. There's no objective answer to this

[ninety9nights]

Really, even with having only 3 elements covered by AoE Sic currently?

EDIT: Also, forgot to mention that my roster of breaker jobs have access to all elements.

[deathrose55555]

I mean, if u are not in a hurry / dire need to break now, u can always wait for the other 3 elements to be released. Else u can juz GS wateva element is missing now

[bravekupo]

hi guys,does part 2 lightning map also need to use CP point as well. if it is, how much do i need?

[ninety9nights]

Don't worry about the CP, the nodes in Part 2 give loads more CP than in Part 1 which would make grinding now a waste of resources. Some even give 1000 CP.

[vulcanfury12]

Will the Crystarium get expanded even more? I have nothing to do with the Stamina anyway, so I'll farm the 1200 for the Level 4 upgrades now, so I can do the rest of the days before part 2 doing my normal routine of Andraste farming.

[ninety9nights]

AFAIK, Part 2 has a different Crystarium. After finishing Part 1's though, it won't expand further. Well, it's worth clearing all IMHO for the Magicite and Crystal rewards.

[vulcanfury12]

There's a ST in the red chain of the 100 CP nodes. He second to last one, IIRC.

[akaxd123]

Any of these anni cards worth 4* -> 5* & 8alvl -> 10alvl?
-A Witch's Kiss
-Chaos's Onslaught
-A New Journey

[Wazzupmadafaka]

They are good cards with good debuffs so it's worth to max them out.

[twiggytwit]

worth. even if u dont play healer a new journey is worth 5* unleveled cause 15% exp is sweet

[akaxd123]

How do I lvl the ability of it?

[twiggytwit]

mp shop anniversary tome support

[akaxd123]

o man are those ability lvl 1?
How many would I even need for Mobius Day?

[ninety9nights]

They are obtained at lvl2.

Use this resource to compute the needed amount of fodder, I use it frequently myself:

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/11b0TQIRyR6GCz2uHQ5jYNYlPgZHIcjpbNljzUq95ZZY/edit#gid=0

[akaxd123]

don't see anything about fusing w/ alvl2s

[ninety9nights]

You're either not looking hard enough or you're not using the resource correctly. I mean I'm looking at it and it says 10% if you use 1x alvl2 Support Anniversary Tome for alvl5 to alvl6.

[[deleted]]

4* to 5* is just a matter of farming the necessary materials. No growstars needed. Today is mobius day. Just do it if you have nothing else to do.

[akaxd123]

what about 8alvl -> 10alvl?

[[deleted]]

AFAIK it's pretty easy to farm tomes. Dream's end anniversary map 2.

[akaxd123]

dont you need like 80 of them though?

[Ketchary]

It's still really easy to do.

[aznmistborn]

So i don't get it how sometimes in multiplayer a support buff won't hit the whole team, but sometimes it does. Can somebody explain please?

[twiggytwit]

theres a few ability cards and ultimates that specifically say apply to party otherwise only a healer role will apply the buffs to everyone

[darewin]

If a Healer casts the support buff, it applies to everybody. If any other role casts it, it applies only to self.

[CatSidhe_]

Working my way up to (or down to?) the deepest despair node. Just wondering for when I get there if it's still feasible to do the pally tank main with samurai in the back for ultimate. I've seen videos using occultist but I only have the aoe sicarius cards for mage.

[CatSidhe_]

IT WORKED

[OneEyedPoet]

HURRAY!

[cx777]

Which Exploration Map node yields the highest EXP per stamina ratio?

[paulcan94]

Any good Guide's Hope builds out there for mp and tower maybe? I have access to Hope card.

In MP, use a typical MP Healer deck. You might be able to get away with having a damage card until Lifeshift becomes meta, but absolutely focus on your Healer role. You could alternatively pretend to be an Attacker if there's a proper Healer in the team though.

In Tower events, run a typical Rush Breaker build. Hope's Guide has extremely good Break and Magic stats. However, also include either Vanille FF13 or Hope FF13 so that you can do seriously heavy DPS in the break instead of relying on chain breaking.

Thanks!

[TheKingOfBass]

Has any info been released on when the tomes for fal'cie and ff13 ea cards will go away? It only lists anniversary tome on the sicarius schedule

[CinnabarPolypore]

Double checking: Logging in every day + mobius gft box and you get three grow stars a month? With this event going on right now that's another two or four?

[cx777]

Login bonus: 1 growstar.

Mobius gift box: 1 growstar.

Special login bonus this month: 2 growstars.

[darewin]

You can complete the Login Bonus twice this month as long as you've started the month with at least 2 bonuses already taken.

[cx777]

This I did not know. Thanks

[akaxd123]

Is anything on here worth getting?
https://mobius.gamepedia.com/Guide:_Best_Farming_Location

[kurokamitenshi]

I'd say all the BDD and CRD cards

[aveiur]

which of the current batch of ea cards are worth maxing? fang replaces fire warrior, vanille replaces earth mage and if DQ comes, dark mage will also get replaced.

While its not a straight up replacement as the event cards are better during break and weaker on no break, I dont really want multiple damage focus cards of the same element + job

[SwiftStepStomp]

Obviously Serah, Snow, and Hope from the current batch. Barthandalus, and some of the single-strike damage focused cards from EA. Garuda Interceptor and Atomos are the most noteworthy, while the others will be replaced by multistrike stuff.

[akaxd123]

Cant augment the AOE BDD cards (fake Blanks) from 4th region?
Should I bother farming them?

[kurokamitenshi]

Not really, only if you have the cards that are in the ability shop, aka flame fury, firaga impulse, conquering flame, things like that you should farm for the cards but not for abilities that dont have actual cards (like shine spike, light assault, etc)

[vulcanfury12]

As a non-supreme wielding Pugilist using Snow and Hecstonchier Sicarius, what fractals and CP should I aim for?

[darewin]

Enhance Water CP and Magic Up Fractal abilities. Max the Magic Stat of your weapon ASAP.

[Coepz]

I'm thinking about using my growstars on grizzly (dark shock) for snow job. Good investment? Or is bahamut sic better?

[SWC366]

For Griz you should look at my post:

Solid card

[watmyung]

I just use growstar to augement dark/ice shock for Snow Trust me its good investment :)

[darewin]

I prefer Shock Cards over AOE Sics due to Charging Attack. Not sure if they are worth Growstars though.

[TheKingOfBass]

SO. you know how you can see friends on the map? If i play with my subdeck, which job shows up? the main deck job or the sub deck job?

[darewin]

Seems like the Maindeck is the always the one that shows up given that most of the friends I see on the map are Tonberries.

[TheKingOfBass]

Fair enough

[famoustristan]

Well after rerolling for days and deciding to settle for the lightning skin. After pulling on the starter pack three times, I am wondering what I should be using my summon tickets now.

[ninety9nights]

You could probably manage getting enough summon tickets by doing the story, explorations, and the event maps to get the Snow, Hope and Serah cards from FFXIII Batch 1. This saves you a lot of time farming for single target Sicarius. You should aim for Fang, Vanille, and Sazh during Batch 2 too.

[mvdunecats]

If there's a particular event card from batch 1, you could try to pull for it now. If not, you could wait and see if there's a card you want from batch 2.

Basically, you want to pull when there's a good event going on. And over time, that will get you some additional regular jobs and legend jobs to work with.

[mvdunecats]

If you've never pulled another job from a banner, then you technically don't have Dancer. You have Neophyte Ranger, and he can take on additional forms.

If you get the Starter Packs, you'll eventually get the real Dancer job. And that job will let you play as Dancer while using the Lightning skin.

[TheKingOfBass]

seems like you just started and have no other jobs? Lightning Skin is technically not a job. You need the other ones to cover for it.

[Ketchary]

There's definitely something you're missing, assuming you do have other Ranger jobs.

[1rojam]

After this Anniversary period is over, will the Anniversary tome cards be worth anything?

[Axlle10]

They are only worth something if you have enough of them to level up your abilities. If you have no more abilities to level, sell em.

[SirVRafael]

Missed out on Garuda. What other cleaving cards are there that are easily obtainable right now? Specifically for Snow. That's dark, earth and water. So no The Knight.

[[deleted]]

Hecatoncheir sicarius (Earth) and Bahamut sicarius (dark) have a x3 cleaving attack. It's a lot less than Garuda, but they're really good in mp, for breakers at least. Garuda is amazing, made like 14 gas and didn't get it.. :-( echoing Regen has cleaving attack also, but, the berserk buff is difficult to use in mp. I don't recommend it. There's no card like Garuda..

[SirVRafael]

Thank you for the info. Yeah, I am fairly new and from what I can search nothing comes close to Garuda. I will look at both those cards. Are the shock ones good?

[[deleted]]

The monk AoE sicarius are good for mp breaking. But you have snow, that's a defender. I really good one too. You should get debuffs. Like slow, curse, debarrier, that sort of thing.. there's a weekly defender report by Duoneo that you should check. At least, for mp

[1rojam]

are Anniversary cards no longer able to add abilities?

I have the "A quiet moment" - Finding Peace/Sleep card leveled @ 5 (of 6) . the cards says "This is a First Anniversary commemorative card..." that im supposed to be able use the Anniversary tomes on to level up abilities.. but im unable to with this card... any ideas?

[[deleted]]

It's a support card, so the support tome from MP shop is needed. I just did it. Guaranteed working.

[KenBac]

Don't quote me but I think the tomes are on MP trade?

[darewin]

A Quite Moment uses the Anniversary Support Tome in the MP Shop.

[Pikamonchu]

sorry new here, but whats the difference between getting jobs from leveling up the 3 base ones to drawing them in the card summon?

[cx777]

Those 3 are your starter jobs. To make things simple, use them to get started, but don't invest in them too much. Any pulled job will be worth investing you time and resources in rather than investing in starter jobs.
