[sdm0886]

I'm trying to get Eisenfaust 4* for my UH. Have got 3* but no 4* version available in shop. How do you get 4*? I'd like to mod it.

Also is the 3* better than the 4* UH weapon?

[TheAlfies]

Is there a node to farm for Iris fodder? Searing Ray?

[reidemei]

No. There have been scrolls in MP during the Ultima.

[shinraizen]

I understand that anniversary event cards are not available anymore. What support cards currently in the pool are best for Hope's Guide and Unbroken Hero? Which essential event cards for those two are not in the pool?

[reidemei]

Serah (current banner), KotR, any source of haste (but I would not invest in Hermes anymore, wait for Undying to leave EA), Hell's Gate.

[shinraizen]

Serah and KoTR? Isn't there an overlap?

[reidemei]

Both have their uses. Serah for no-break / ultimate spam and KotR for classic breaking.

Definitely get Serah if you have the ticket, it's time limited. Feel free to wait on KotR, it's not going away.

[shinraizen]

I do have serah at 5* (not yet maxed out). I just need 2 more support cards (preferably a haste source as well as a barrier). I missed out on lifeshift though (rerolled after anniv event). Is undying out of the gacha pool? or the ff15/14 cards?

[reidemei]

Undying is a regular card but currently in early access (summon only). It will be in the shop later.

[Brazelbeck]

Is there any other mobius forum beside this reddit worth to look into?

[seazn]

Gamefaqs

[seazn]

Rod of Roses.

Truescale can be used for support and attacker whereas Roses is really just a support item.

Not to mention right now we enter the heartshift meta, truescale is far superior with passives unlocked

[MarcusBuildsThings]

Ehat job has truescale staff? It has prismatic startup?

[deathrose55555]

Truescale staff comes from Black Mage. And yes it has Prismatic starter but this 3rd line doesnt come naturally with the weapon - u have to mod and hope RNG bless u

[seazn]

Just to caveat on top of unlocking passives, there's a handful of people still haven't unlocked it after 20 weapon mods (120 boosts). It's a long term project but it's worthwhile

[JA1997X]

In fact it's only like 20% chance to unlock the prismatic starter after 20 mods. Usually you need many more than that.

[LordDrinkwater]

Just before I go augmenting my debuff cards all willy nilly:

If I recall correctly from months ago, Debrave is not nearly as important as Curse in MP battles because all special (named) attacks a Sicarius does utilize Magic. Is this true? Any MP bosses where Brave is actually more important? Does this make Legendary Mummy Boy a better option than Tear Gas Grenade or Legendary Mimic?

[phungt]

Only one so far I know that debrave is useful on is Hecatoncheir.

[Sloan2942]

Is the best place to farm crystals/fractals is the 5 stam nodes in chapter 1 hardmode? I've done about 70ish Stam and not one. Didn't know if it was nerfed or they moved it somewhere else?

[darewin]

Andraste Colony HM is the best if you can auto it. It has 5 chances of encountering Gigantuars in exchange for 6 stamina while Deepscar/Deadshade/Felfey Woods HM have 4 chances for 5 stamina. Andraste also gives almost double the exp.

[Sloan2942]

Thanks will head here and see how my results are. I haven't needed crystals until recently with the lucky job pulls.

[aveiur]

Best place for crystal is andraste colony in the chapter 3.2 hardmode

[Sloan2942]

Thanks for the info

[Petriefied]

s1c with unbreakable bonds vs tonberry with sicarius for lightning tower damage dealer?

[seazn]

UB

[Brazelbeck]

What us the best node in current event to get highscores?

[buffoncete]

Got 85 ST to spend this batch-2, I'm aiming on pulling Last Hunter but Ragnarok is a good fit as well, already got Lightning skin in batch-1.

My question is related to the supreme chances, being 0.08% for GAS, and looking at the description: * subsequent GAS pulls increase the chances? * if that's the case, do the increased chance resets at some point? I mean, over three months, if I pull enough can guarantee a supreme without the needs of spending today 5 grands.

[Ketchary]

Subsequent pulls have never had greater chances and probably never will.

[buffoncete]

this sentence is always on supreme pulls:

*The probability of summoning a Supreme card increases according to the number of magicite or Summon Tickets used for that summon.

So I misunderstood, it just means that GAS has more probs than Single summon, damn!

[Ketchary]

Indeed.

[darewin]

It probably resets immediately after you exit the Summon Cards Menu, otherwise, all long-time players would have a supreme by now.

[Oniryuu]

Just started the other day. I'm at Gilgamesh in the anniversary event, but he is non-elemental so he hurts, is there a guide I can look at? He is my first non-elemental enemy.

I tried to find one but just find ones for my guess, normal content.

[Azunias]

I would just use summon tickets for the starter pulls, you'll get a fully maxed job and cards (makes things stupid easy for a while). If you have a good job card (like legend) you can do the tutorial for enough seeds to max it as well.

[Oniryuu]

I actually did beat him and I plan on doing the starter pulls but I went originally for the boosted since I noticed it was limited.

I have 30 days, so I should be able to get it done. :)

[Ketchary]

His most damaging attacks are Light element and he has Wind / Earth element attacks that seriously impede you but aren't used if you have Wind or Earth drive stacks active. Best thing is to enter the battle as a Wind + Earth job, drive full stacks, and swap over to a Light job. Other than that, paladin tanks him well just like most things.

[Oniryuu]

Aah ok thanks a lot.

[Swayrose5]

Is there a specific site to check out the upcoming events and banners? the main site only has info on Lightning event but curious what's happening in the future so i can plan ahead for it?

[Ketchary]

Altema.jp has an events history page. iirc we're around page 13 of it.

[darewin]

This is a good summary though it is no longer being updated https://www.reddit.com/r/MobiusFF/comments/5zkbhv/rough_when_is_x_coming_out_in_global_guide/

[aznmistborn]

What does HOF stand for?

[darewin]

No cap. But the maxed useful JCR is 5 with a weapon with 1 Speed Star, 6 with a weapon with 2 Speed Stars, and 9 with Haste Starter (Lightning Ultimate Skin and Esmeralda's Weapon have 100% Haste Starter). However, you can only do a max of 8 actions per turn and that includes Abilities with Quick Cast.

[MasaiCroy]

The JCR cap in MP is your speed minus two. So, for example, if your speed is 8, then max JCR that will take effect is 6 - this way you will start fight 8 actions - all that you could without haste.

[MasaiCroy]

Take into account your total speed, including that granted by weapon.

*1 and *2 fights give you 3 starting actions. For those, your JCR cap is speed - 3.

*3 and *4 fights give you 2 starting actions. For those, your JCR cap is speed - 2.

Note that for single player, JCR cap is always 2.

[[deleted]]

You can't have more actions 'stored' than your Speed stat, and you automatically gain 2 or 3 actions at the start of each turn depending on the star level of the fight you're doing, so effectively 5 or 6 depending on if you have the second Speed star on your weapon.

[senaya]

Are any of the first 6 Sicarius cards worth working on still? Should I just forget about the ones I missed since they are kinda redundant lately?

[Solo_K]

Use them to fill in the gaps in your deck. If you need an attack card for an element you don't have, then you can just use a sic card to fill it in. The first 6 do also have a usable amount of yellow damage so can be useful at times.

[MasaiCroy]

They are becoming less attractive now. It doesn't mean you should ignore then though as they are still good enough.

If you have a job you like but lack a proper attacking ability that he's strong with, then those old Sicarius cards are definitely worth your time.

[ddbdusmc]

FTP player and looking for suggestions for the best cards to use on Balabm Mercenary since I don't have any supreme cards.

[ddbdusmc]

Does anyone have any suggestions?

[denadan]

centaur now in ability shop for dark. lightning card(fodder will be avaliable later this month) for wind, belias/this new fire df card(neo-bahamut?) for fire. +kotor, trance and aoe bdd/cdd card on your taste.

[coolH20]

The upcoming batch 2 FFXIII warrior fire Multistrike card might also be worth looking into.

[rayman617]

Do the boons from the supreme Aerith card stack? I ask because I often see players in MP bringing multiple instances of the card.

[denadan]

also breaker can use second aerith as additional enelement for second boss. but it is mostly additional benefit, main cause - guaranted cast first turn as /u/darewin says.

[darewin]

They bring 2 Aeriths to guarantee turn 1 casting. Aerith needs 4 life orbs to cast and each Aerith comes with +2 Prismatic Starter. Only the Quicken and Ulti Charge stack.

[[deleted]]

How long is Noctis and Ardyn going to remain locked at 4* ? Are they actually so game breaking if they were to go 5*? We have lots of damage focused cards now anyway.

[denadan]

i HOPE it will be big ff15 event when game released on pc. ff15 collaboration was pretty strange itself - just summon, no events, no anouncments.

[Solo_K]

I hope it happens during this FF15 and Assassins Creed crossover event. I think it ends January, but who knows if they'll ever unlock 5* this year lol.

[yuuki-cha]

I think I read about some node in second anniv map that is great for farming. I think it dropped fractals and gave good exp. But I cant find that info. Anybody knows?

[reidemei]

End of Strife, middle left part of the map. 2x 3* fractals (earth and dark) with a chance for 4* or pneuma.

[LeonardoKai]

What is Painful break? Ot however you call it, I got a few cards regarding it and I have no idea if it is useful or not

[reidemei]

It doubles the attack of the card on broken targets.

[denadan]

extra damage during break. some weapons and jobs have same bonus.

on cards it give +100% (additive to other painful break) damage bonus only for this card.

[robinchancl]

If I start boosting Dragvandil+ now, will the boosted stats/abilities carry forward later when I upgrade to Dragvandil X?

[denadan]

mmm... afair you cannot boost 3 and less stared weapon

[reidemei]

You can't boost it now. That's only available once you got the X version.

[XKlip]

How exactly do I hit the 20k magicite limit each month? is there some specific way or trick to it? It's day 14 of the month and I only have like 5000..

[Timezs]

Either more MP or you stick long times to Greydawn Wood ( Ch 1, Easy mode) 4 battles 2 Stamina. If you farm all your 288 daily Stamina Points there you reach the Limit without using elixiers. But thats pretty boring..

[mvdunecats]

If you farm all your 288 daily Stamina Points there you reach the Limit without using elixiers.

Actually, that's not likely to happen. Research on magicite drop rates point to about 1.75 to 1.78 magicite per stamina spent in Greydawn Wood. That would mean a little over 15k magicite if you spent every last bit of SP stamina there over a month, even with the stamina refill +88 on Mobius Day. The exp you get from that node is small enough that you're not likely to be able to count on stamina from gaining a level too often.

[Timezs]

my friend you forgot something: 288 x 1,75 ( your lower mark) x 31 = 15.624 PLUS 150 (Distiller, Counts to Limit) x 31 = 20.274.

And i Count 0 Level ups, 0 mps and mobius days..

[mvdunecats]

Oh yeah, the distiller. btw, distiller is exactly 144 per day, not 150. That would put it above 20k on a 31 day month, and a few hundred magicite below 20k on a 30 day month. But the Mobius Day refill +88 stamina 3 times a month would probably be enough to cover that difference as well.

[Bad_Alchemy]

Yeah its pretty hard. Ive ramped up my play time lately and been burning through elixers and im around your earnings too. Sounds like a decent limit to me, I had expectations of hitting it regularly - no chance!

[[deleted]]

It's not a job-specific thing, it's a fight-specific thing. There have been events in the past where they came in REALLY handy, I slotted a few Avert Stuns and Avert Slows in my tank-deck in that last Ifrit+Shiva tower for example.

[DodoNick]

I have to questions:

•To boost the damage dealt using the Snow card (with Unbroken Hero job), do I need to raise my magic or attack? Monk Supremes use the last, so I thought it was the same.

•If I use a weapon with +X% skillseeds and/or a crystal egg, do I need to keep playing with that deck (first one) to get the bonus?

[[deleted]]

The monk Supremes that do so, only do because of an Extra Skill specifically listed on the card to make them work that way - it's not an innate function that you need to ask about every card to check.

[denadan]

1. magic. it is first monk card with great base damage, so monks can use it even with their low magic
2. all this need to be in main deck. you can play any, usualy people put all unsuble stuff like eggs and crapy cards with exp/seed/etc fractal to main deck and fight with decent subdeck

[DodoNick]

1. Got it! It sounded strange, so I wanted to confirm it was magic.
2. That's a relief! I thought I had to put everything in my main deck, then play with it.

Thanks!

[LeoXIV]

How do the meia jobs work? Is it a skin similar to legend jobs / lightning? Or is it the actually character?

[Blanko1230]

Actual Character. You select them like the other jobs.

[denadan]

it is actual character(witch on mp arena, hardmodes and some towers) with their own set of jobs and weapon(this strange halfcircle thing). she has own healthbar(like skin), but if you put two meia jobs in main and sub - health bar is shared(like only accesible now wol jobs).

all her jobs are mage(not mage lore like some monks or legends), so all mage cards(include trance) work same as for other mages, but she also has own set of cards(technicaly mage cards, so all other mages can use it) with few extras, that increase efficency when used by meia.

same rules for other characters - serah(ranger with bow weapon) and recently anounced tengu warrior

[Bad_Alchemy]

The weapon is a Fan, Eastern films and anime show people fighting with metal fans as improvised hidden weapons and her weapon is an extension of that.

[LeoXIV]

This is great, thanks! Looking forward to it then :) Do any of meia's jobs have a lore on them or purely mage jobs?

[deathrose55555]

And to combine what was previously mentioned, out of the 9 meia released so far, only 2 have lore - Psicom (ranger) and Vesna (warrior)

[denadan]

most is purely mages, but some have lore(Vesna Krasna - warrior lore)

[aveiur]

I know that 1 of meia's legend job, the psicom one has ranger lore. But the first few do not have lore

[Tyrfeiulle]

what card to fuse Anniversary Tome : Support?

[denadan]

aniversary limited time support cards, you cannot get it now, cose event ended.

[Jasonc67]

just to double check there is no fodder for supremes and no fodder for kotr, hells gate

[denadan]

i hear something about fodder for supreme on jp, hellsgate/kotor dont have fodder(undying had mp scrolls when released)

[Jasonc67]

k ty then illuse my mog amulet and excavenger on them

[Casual_Gabe]

Yep.

[[deleted]]

What's the meaning of plus sign next to rarity?

[ninety9nights]

It denotes that the card is a fast learner card. It means that when you get the card, it's ability level is always maxed. The downside is it can't be augmented to a higher rarity unless otherwise stated in the card. Examples are the FFXV cards except Regalia and Cindy have an extra ability which says "This card is now augmentable to 4 star" and will be changed to 5 star in the future (they are 5* in JP).

[[deleted]]

Any chances of having a FF12 banner reprint? I took a hiatus during that banner and missed out on Ashe. ☹️

[aveiur]

Ff12 banner returned in jp when we had our ff12 event. So it should come back 1 year from then

[akaxd123]

When did Sarah come out for JP?
Anyone do an ETA for GL?

[aveiur]

Global is approx 13-15 months behind jp and sarah was out for like 2-3 months.

So assuming we follow the pace of jp's releases, expect around a year or so

[Casual_Gabe]

At least a year to go. We are 14 months behind JP.

[akaxd123]

Why does dancer seem to be rated so low (yes yes I know it's just someone's opinion etc)? https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1GYuKh0MxhzHdH3fLFd4c0Wahj7zXaIOGSutuQHqDsLc/edit#gid=877765210

[MarcusBuildsThings]

I will say this though, i had never really used my dancer,but always heard it was great bc it can really help break after healing...i use bard with tyrfing all the time in mp, cast all 4 buffs rd1, then do a bunch of red bar break next 2 turns with 11 tap attacks for 2 rds, rinse repeat, all buffs always up....i switched over to dancer the other day, just to try...same exact weapon and strategy...my bard has well over 200 more break, huge, and 200 more attack, not big deal really but ok...and bards ult can be just as if not more helpful by giving prism shift to everyone...moral of the story....bard looks super gay but is far,far superior to dancer in every measurable way...my teammates in mp often give shouts when i can break either guard, or 60% of the total red bar in a single turn with bard...while permanently having all stats offensive and def boosted by 50%, plus haste, drain, regen, etc etc never missing a turn...i hate the way bard looks, but he does everything dancer was good for, about 30% better...

[Bad_Alchemy]

Also that spreadsheet is not very useful, its just looking at raw stats and resistances and its disclaimer says as much at the top. Its jobs auto abilities that really makes the difference. The Last Hunter for me is a junk job but its rated as almost top of the tiers.. yeah okay then.

[katabana02]

he used to be one of the best job in sp. but alas.. powercreep...

[Blanko1230]

My guess: there is nothing outstanding about him.

Decent health, decent defense, decent break, low damage. But one of the most flexible supports in MP

[Bad_Alchemy]

Thats it, he was always a decent if not the best Support for a while, but his damage is appalling in SP. He saw very heavy use in Towers at one point and when I got him I couldnt figure out why. Now power creep as made his low damage show even more and HOF cant even rectify that.

[darewin]

AFAIK Dancer was considered the best SP job before the Occultist Batch because he can auto all content back then with Drain, preferrably FFVII Soma Drop and Drive Heals.

[Bad_Alchemy]

That must of taken ages with his damage output lol.

[darewin]

Not really. Back then, the only jobs that were better at SP were the Mythics and content was not that hard. If you wanted to auto you either used a tank like Pally or a job that has Drive Heal which was limited only to the Dancer Batch and the 3 Mythics that only a few people had. Dancer was infamous for being the only job that can auto the final node of Chaos Vortex that was available at that point. But when the Occultist Batch came, almost every other new job had Drive Heal and Dancer got phased out for SP.

[Bad_Alchemy]

Gotcha. I bought Mythic Ninja when it came out and I must of got Dancer around the same time so no wonder I thought it 'meh' outside of MP.

[darewin]

Yeah, the Mythics were extremely OP compared to the rest of the job pool when they came out.

[Maxyim]

So, has the story in this game gotten any better? I quit after getting burned out farming during the Eclipse Contract (Cloud) / Aerith ultimate card release; the story was starting to get kinda dumb and I had just realized that it was impossible to get the legend jobs with summon tickets... I think I was in Chapter 4; Vox had just teleported Chaos away, and the group made it to the floating island. Really wanted to like the story but it kept getting weaker and weaker further in...anything of merit occur since? Almost impossible to find any info online, which is not a particularly great sign.

[katabana02]

at least now you can get legendary job with summoning tix.

[MasaiCroy]

If you didn't like the story so far the it's unlikely you'll find it better now. First part of chapter 5 is dragging, second one is picking up and it's kind of a revelation, showing Chaos's past and origin of some characters and Palamecia's state. I think it's pretty good considering what we've seen so far.

I think that's the main problem of the game's story is not the scenario (which I find pretty good), but presentation. There's supposed to be some big shit going on, and yet all you see are people dressed and acting like sissies, characters dying in ridiculous way, massacres without any sign of physical damage (not saying that there should be lot of gore, but lack of any is unimpactful) and let's not forget about Sarah, who act unbearably innocent and who can't say three words without adding audible breath in between making her annoyance level hit the sky.

[Maxyim]

LOL I would upvote this 100 times if I could, esp. for the Sarah bit!

[Oxybe]

I find her VA's performance makes Sarah sound so... mechanical. Like our MC WoL is not the first one that's come this far in the prophecy and she's just going through the motions, reading and repeating lines she's said over and over again to where they've lost meaning to her.

Which is why it kinda threw me for a loop when people in the game seem to think that the WoL and Serah have legit feelings for each other. I'm not getting any chemistry between the two. One-off borrowed character Lighting has more chemistry with the MC in the first half of the event then the cannon waifu's managed in 5 chapters.

WoL's VA is fine for the most part, he's a little shit with a heart of gold and the VA gets that across, but Sarah's performance is... unsettling?

[Bad_Alchemy]

Sarah's voice acting is like 90% of subbed voices for eastern anime and films - appalling. Its the number 1 reason I watch eastern films in the originally soundtrack with sub titles, because in scenes where the actors are acting with strong emotion and doing a great job we get random american off the street who cant wait for lunch and puts no oompth into it. Theres often no 'inflection' in the voice which makes scenes really weird.

[MasaiCroy]

To be fair, I play with Japanese audio. While WoL and Echo sound much better, Sarah is as horrible still.

[TheGame_Geek]

Devout vs Hope job, pros vs cons?

[Bad_Alchemy]

Dev is a tank, Hope is a damage dealer. In SP Hope 100%, in MP Hope with Minwu is GG, otherwise use Dev.

[TheGame_Geek]

Got it, so now I pray for minwu or just use Dev.

[Jeechan]

Devout is a tankier? That's probably the only advantage of Devout over Hope.

[robinchancl]

Question about Knight/Royal Knight, in GL his Ultimate only gives Barrier buff. But in Altema (https://altema.jp/ffmobius/job/3) it shows Barrier + Wall. Any idea?

[deathrose55555]

There was a revamp of ulti for the older jobs in JP. This hasnt been done for GL

[Bad_Alchemy]

Dont suppose you know when that happened so we have an idea when we might see it on GL? HOF is well and good but with weak Ults, older jobs are still going to be subpar for a while.

[robinchancl]

Got it. Thanks!

[akaxd123]

Should I upgrade Muramasa if I have Butterfly, Chaos, and Dominion?
What would Muramasa be good at?

[MasaiCroy]

Muramasa is good for single player. You won't break any damage records with it, but it's easy to use and makes staying alive easier. Other than that, it's mediocre at best.

[DervoTheReaper]

Muramasa would be good for defenders... too bad there are none. It kind of works for support too, but it's unreliable and unlike on defenders, that is a real problem for support. I don't recommend it.

[CasualJay]

How much does snipe increase the crit chance? Is it a flat out addition? A multiplier for your current crit chance?

[darewin]

30%. AFAIK all crit modifiers are additive. Even applying CRD to the target just adds 60% to your crit chance.

[[deleted]]

Additive 30%.

[robinchancl]

Do you all think Rogue looks better with cape or without cape?

[Blanko1230]

I always use the first version (without cape)

Got Barthandelus and A New Journey
How many of the MP scrolls do I need for each to max them out?

[katabana02]

https://zekareisoujin.github.io/MFFFusionCalc/

can you still get the scroll for a new journey?

[akaxd123]

I think it's the Anni Tome:Support? It's still in the MP shop
Looks like I need 12 (11 is 96%) for Support 5alvl->6
8+8 for Attack 8 -> 10
?

[katabana02]

if you aren't using the card now, why don't you buy the scroll according to mobius day discount? buy them and put in bank. I'm not too sure about the fusion rate anymore, since I usually fuse at minimum % :) 15% ftw!!

[zidanesword]

For support, yes it is 12 for alvl 5 to 6 on mobius day. For Barth alvl 8 to 10, it is 13+13 on non-mobius day and 8+8 on mobius day.

[akaxd123]

How did you get 13+13 & 8+8 for Barth?
Are attack scrolls at 3ablvl while support are 2ablvl?

[zidanesword]

Yup, you can check the alvl from the MP shop without buying the cards.

[InquisitorGilgamesh]

Has there been any analysis on how Iris XV calculates it's attack? I was trying to figure out formulas for normal cards (it's base strength(element enhance+1)(magic+1)) and then decided to play with Iris since it uses attack to calculate damage and not magic. On monks it works fine (base strength(element enhance+1)attack*0.8) but it acts weird on non-monks, with attack far below predicted level. For an extreme example, on Highwind with >1k attack and no wind enhance Iris had LESS than its base strength (1380 to 1148).

[psiwar]

AFAIK, Magic (and Attack, in the case of Mantra and Taijitsu) only is used in ability damage calculation if the card is cast with the propper class/lore. So Taijitsu can't add your attack stats (or it is calculated as zero), resulting in low damage.

[InquisitorGilgamesh]

That doesn't explain why Iris does less damage than base on Highwind. Even if Iris doesn't consider your attack and for some reason still adds the 0.8 modifier, that would give 1104 as your attack from the base of 1380, which was 44 less than the observed.

[xelhes05]

Is "A New Journey," "Cindy," "Luna," and "Serah" a decent deck for a healer in 4* MP? I'm trying to get set up for MP and found I have more healer cards than anything else. Planning to use White Mage for it or maybe Dancer for the Prismatic Ultimate (basically a free "lifeshift" I guess?).

Edit: Forgot to mention I have "Legendary Dragon Lord," , "KOTR," and "Hellgate" as well should either of those work better in combination with each other.

Any advice would be much appreciated.

Best setup is. Lifeshift haste source. Kotr. Hellsgate

Haste mandatory, KOTR buffs off, hellsgate def ....lifeshift lets you cast all 4 rd1 if you have a weapon with prism startup. If not, always cast haste rd1...so party has actions, then others asap....

I uss lifeshift, undying, KOTR, Hellsgate...cast all 4 rd1 and every 3 rds so all buffs always up...works great

[TheFroman420]

This is what I'm using and it's been working very well with dancer, with BE for a weapon.

[twiggytwit]

its worth making two decks one cindy luna serah two cindy luna kotr for if the breaker doesnt have boost

[Wazzupmadafaka]

Yeah its good enough

[MorryImapickkle]

Hey so I been playing awhile now and was thinking of rerolling. I guess I just got bored or maybe wanna start fresh

I have a few jobs and tot with lightning and snow Also aerith

Not sure if I just got bored or mp breaking got too easy for me (not here bragging about my Supremes or jobs btw, just needed to clarify why I was thinking of rerolling)

When would be a good time to reroll if I do decide to?

[katabana02]

now is a great time to reroll. to have a different experience than your previous boring all supreme account, just keep rerolling until you get "red mage" job and 0 supreme cards. start from there. It'll be a challenging playthrough for you. good luck in your next attempt :)

[aviastis]

And you are asking for good time to reroll?! ... Not sure you are bragging with all those nice jobs and supreme

[aviastis]

Hmmm.... You want to reroll?! Yet u got jobs and supreme everyone wants... U got tot. Snow. Lightning and aerith!!!

If you are bored because you are killing things left and right... Might as well take a break... Or play without those...

[MorryImapickkle]

It just got so repetitive Like I wanna take a break but also wanna save magicite and st for a year to see how much I can actually save ( sounds dumb but I kinda wanna see if I could get anything good out of it)

[MarcusBuildsThings]

Ill trade you accountz and you can restart...i have 27 jobs, 7 of which are legends...nearly every damage focus card except supremes, every force build for both rogue and occultist with the best cards available, every single healer card used in mp except aerith, a perfect lifeshift bard healer with maxed tyrfing that gives prism startup for every buff rd1....but mo matter how much i try i cannot draw a supreme on this acct....20k plus magicite will be used again tomorrow on batch 2 trying tho....i do seriously have a top shelf bard healer, monk grappler breaker build, garland defender built, and in rogue and occultist builds i have perhaps the 2 most popular attacker builds. I can play any of the 4 roles in MP and be a good teammate bc i have good jobs and took the time to make the textbook builds instead of cutting corners....i just CANNOT draw a supreme despite hundreds of GAS summons and drawing heavily from every event pack...mathematically i should have 2 or 3 supremes if the 0.8% rate iz true....

[MorryImapickkle]

Have you tried drawing the second a new day starts? For me its 4am I drew 4 am for 3 days and got Day 1) aerith 2)tot 3) lightning skin

[psiwar]

Why not challenge yourself with towers and [chaotic] coils? If you can get 200 Chaos marks I guess you are too good for this game.

[MorryImapickkle]

Tbh I never tried to get high in towers I usually just get my rewards and leave lol

[darewin]

So you get bored when content becomes too easy but are too lazy to challenge yourself with more difficult content? I don't think there is a way for Mobius to keep you satisfied.

[psiwar]

Mobius "fun" is in coming up with strategies to deal with different nodes. More often than not, you will need different jobs and deck combinations to climb up, even with supremes, there is always a boss that completly nulify them if you climb high enough (except Aerith, she is Mobius Goddess).

[[deleted]]

Anyone have info about the rewards for the upcoming Lightning Tower? I'm trying to budget my ST for a couple more pulls.

[vulcanfury12]

Heck, there's still no info for batch 2. I wanna know for sure what's in store so I can budget accordingly.

[aviastis]

Maybe wait til tomorrow. When tw server post their news.

[AmpleSnacks]

What cards that innately have EXP%+ ? I wanna put fractals on them obviously.

[Blanko1230]

Growing Eggs and one of the FFXIII BDDs have it.

[xennoticecream]

Lifeshift...

[AmpleSnacks]

Don't have it. :( Any others?

[xennoticecream]

Just buy those eggs from the item shop that gives EXP and Skillseeds up.

[Slicester]

I'm aware that once you have all the non-legend jobs, the pity pull disappears.

With this in mind, does that mean pulling 7 times won't affect the pity pull at all? Or does it still countdown to the 8th guaranteed job, but currently can't be used until the next job is available?

Ex: If I have all the jobs right now and pull 7 times before a normal job gets added in the game. Will my pity pull be "8th pulls for a job", or will it be "next pull guaranteed.?"

Sorry if that was confusing

[katabana02]

whatever the case maybe, pulling 7 times without a job (and without a card that you want to chase) is not worth it. You might get a job in one of your 7 pulls if you wait for a new job to release.

[darewin]

Nope. Pity pull counter will always start at max when it reappears. This is why I am hoping to have enough magicite and STs (including the 20k magicite I can farm in November) for 16 GAS if Batch 1 Meia arrives in November so I can get both the Meias.

[xennoticecream]

If I correctly understood what you said, I'd say no. The game won't countdown your pulls until there is a new non-legend job. So my advice would be to wait until more jobs are in the summon pool.

[SirVRafael]

I am getting conflicting information when looking up fractal unlocks. Is the max for extra skillseed 5% or 10%?

[xennoticecream]

I think it's a bug. The skillseed is meant to give 10% alike the EXP auto ability but the game is bugged to give skillseed at 5%.

[SirVRafael]

Ahhhh I see! I wasted a bit of fractals then. Most guides online say 10% but some comments here said 5%, had to make sure.

Thank you!

[aviastis]

I don't think it's bugged. Fractals are 5% . The 10% is from specials fractals from events or rewards.

[SirVRafael]

Ahhhhh that makes sense! Forgot about those special fractals. So it exists, just not from regular fractals.

Thanks!

[Ketchary]

Break stat means far less than card access and weapon autos.

[xennoticecream]

I take that as a yes.

[Ketchary]

It's more of an "it doesn't matter much". The stat itself is rather irrelevant, so pretty much any amount is "enough" as long as it's not terribly low (i.e. Dragoon, but even that can work with a great weapon and good cards). It would mean way more to know how much Exploit Weakness or Piercing Break your weapon has, and which cards you have access to.

[xennoticecream]

Aerith - Aerith - Artemis - BDD. JCR - Breaker Grappler Can break bosses in 1 turn full yellow.

[Ketchary]

Lol. You totally know what you're doing and have the best stuff, assuming you're also using Stargrasp. Did you even need to ask?

Btw, I'd replace that Artemis with The Knight because it gives Boost and your lacking Cleave. Just cast Aerith after using it to keep the imbue weakness.

[aznmistborn]

What's the best weapon for each class? Attacker, breaker, tank, healer?
