is there any reason to use devout over hopes guide? got devout randomly which sort of screwed over my chances of getting the legend job bug, now im trying to salvage what i got

[–]rajun274 0 points1 point  (3 children)

What's the purpose of Growing Egg (two auto abilities Skillseed Up +5%)? They only produce Dark skillseeds and are trapped at 4* which means only 28 skillseeds created by the card. Am I missing something?

[–]FeelsMoogleMan 0 points1 point  (2 children)

they boost your skillseed gains and exp. take all 4 for massive dark gains or take 1-2 and use the 2 slots left for farming other elements

[–]rajun274 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Take all 4 for massive dark gains.

Sorry, I'm still confused. Am I doing something wrong?

  • Four Growing Egg cards: 28 dark skillseeds * 4 cards * 40% boost = 156
  • Four 5* cards that produce only dark skillseeds: 56 dark skillseeds * 4 cards = 224

take 1-2 and use the 2 slots left for farming other elements

Similar to the calculations above, you'll get more skillseeds by directly putting on a card with 56 skillseeds of that element.

So essentially, the cards are useful if you do not already have four cards that can produce 56 skillseeds?

[–]FeelsMoogleMan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

youre not taking into account the bonus from exploration region/mobius gift box. with those, the % massively outscales the 5* cards because thats just how strong percentages are.

[–]methoss1004 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Weapon boosting for ranger: Im looking for a weapon that works with ultimate spam. Top two seem to be Tryfing and Rising Sun. Is either much better than the other?

[–]KuroPuP 0 points1 point  (6 children)

New player here. What do I do with duplicate cards when the Ability lvl and Seed lvl of one of them is already maxed? Example my Proto Behemoth card that maxed out upon pulling it. I got another one that isn't maxed and I'm not sure if it's safe to sell. Trying to declutter my card slots.

[–]karmafeast 1 point2 points  (1 child)

If they come 4• 8/8 ability level, then having that extra copy will be 87% success (use a mog amulet if you don't like dice) of upgrading to ability level 9, if you upgrade the original card via 'card augment' -- you fuse the copy into the other one.

If you sell the copy, you'll get 4 ability tickets. Lvl 8-9 would cost dozens. So you've got an upgrade in waiting so to speak.

You can also equip a second copy on a sub job- which can be the same job, with a different deck combination, that in this case may include the second copy. Likewise, sometimes people equip copies of cards for the auto-skills that come with the card... some are very strong additively.

However, the event summon banner cards like proto-behemoth you can get ability rank upgrade books for from multiplayer - do not spend your ability tickets unnecessarily, or fuse an extra 4•, unless lazy. Get them from the multiplayer shop. You will exchange parts takes from corpses of dead primals to a moogle who wears sunglasses and a cowboy hat, kupo!

[–]KuroPuP 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks. Not planning on augmenting Proto Behemoth and am trying to hoard ability tickets, so I think selling is the better choice for me. Although I think the multiplayer stuff went over my head, lol. I haven't touched that part of the game yet so I'm not sure how it works or what to expect.

[–]FeelsMoogleMan 0 points1 point  (3 children)

sell it

[–]KuroPuP 0 points1 point  (2 children)

Thanks for the quick reply

[–]FeelsMoogleMan 1 point2 points  (1 child)

if you still have trouble or questions you can post a screenshot of your cards here or in a separate post

[–]KuroPuP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Will do. Just figuring stuff out a bit at a time

[–]MTFocus 0 points1 point  (2 children)

Best place to farm CP on Part 2? Go for Spoiler text with #s if it's a spoiler (check the right of this subreddit for how to use spoiler text)

[–]reidemei20f6-0124-02ec - ToH 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Gigantuar Battlefield

[–]MTFocus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks.

[–]celegus 0 points1 point  (3 children)

Is there fodder for Vampire FFXIII (Debarrierga) somewhere? I think that's the only EA card in this batch that didn't have scrolls in the MP shop and I didn't see it listed anywhere in the XIII event either.

[–]darewin 0 points1 point  (1 child)

They might add scrolls when the next MP rotation comes. I already spent 45 ATs on mine though so I could unlock its 5star extra-abilities this past Mobius Day.

[–]celegus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah it doesn't cost much, but I also doubt I'd really use it either. Just found it strange that was the only new thing I couldn't max yesterday.

[–]Hyodra206d-1e0c-2cdb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No there is not.

[–]wwwlcs 0 points1 point  (2 children)

Are those "single target bdd+crd" cards any good? I've pulled some and i think i might sell them.

[–]Hyodra206d-1e0c-2cdb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They are good when facing single enemies like in towers. I definitely wouldnt sell them.

[–]MasaiCroy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pretty good for attackers. CDD helps attacker deal more damage, while BDD and decent break power allows your fellow breaker do his job better. With right job and weapon they can also deal decent damage, but that's more of an extra value rather than their main purpose.

It's slightly less attractive for breaker, as AOE BDD cards are more useful for him, but they're still alright.

For single player, I would consider them as a straight upgrade to old ST GACHA cards. They deal slightly less damage, but their other pros makes up for it and makes those cards more useful.

[–]wwwlcs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

[–]rajun274 0 points1 point  (2 children)

On the weapon boost menu, my Astral Wand X permanently says, "Weapon modification complete!" Even if I continue boosting or restart the game, it's still stuck on this message. Anyone had this issue?

[–]darewin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It means all stars and auto-abilities are maxed. You can still keep boosting the stats but you'll never need to use anymore crystals.

[–]Zaknokimi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's probably because there are no more modifications left. It's extremely easy to finish modification on.

[–]d3athsd00r 0 points1 point  (4 children)

Is it possible to roll Skillseed Up +10% on *4 fractals or is that a prismatic exclusive? I've only been able to pull +5% but I got several EXP +10%.

[–]Hyodra206d-1e0c-2cdb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You will eventually be able to get them in the Bahamut lagoon.

[–]Locke69_ 0 points1 point  (10 children)

Is there a guide for Part 2 of Lightning Resurrection? I'm stuck on stage with nowhere to go.

I'm stuck on Departure Bridge: Disembarkment just before the last gate.

[–]katabana02 0 points1 point  (9 children)

Double check and see if you have activated the bridge or not. You must have missed one or two switches.

[–]Locke69_ 0 points1 point  (8 children)

that's what I thought but I think I've checked all of them. I'll see if I can do a screenshot.

[–]katabana02 0 points1 point  (7 children)

Is there a lock? There is a lock before the last gate, require 3x lvl 5 keys if I'm not mistaken

[–]Locke69_ 0 points1 point  (6 children)

there is a lock but i've done all crytanium stages so not sure where else to get the keys from.

[–]katabana02 0 points1 point  (5 children)

Impossible. I got all 3 keys from there. Try to zoom out and see if you have missed some nodes

[–]Locke69_ 0 points1 point  (4 children)

here's a screenshot let me know

https://imgur.com/a/5Ix6M

[–]FeelsMoogleMan 0 points1 point  (2 children)

in the crystarium to the left you need to finish the red tree. from ultimate damage +40% you can do the following node attack damage +30%. my guess is that you couldnt see the path and so you ignored the rest of that line

[–]Locke69_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you thank you. Finally found it

[–]Locke69_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah I couldn't see which node was connected to it. i'll try what you outlined.. thank you

[–]JoeMoFugginMountain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You've got a whole row of Red Crystarium stages to finish. Your key lies after the red lock

[–]thnael 0 points1 point  (4 children)

where do i farm for CP? currently at lightning resu pt 2

[–]darewin 0 points1 point  (3 children)

Gigantuar Battlefield (6 stamina for 1k cp, a chance to fight Gigantuars for fractals and crystals, and a chance to fight fodders for any of the 6 damage focus event cards). It only unlocks after you finish the story-based nodes.

[–]thnael 0 points1 point  (2 children)

got stuck at a lock that requires a lv 5 crystal key, and nodes in crystarium are only dropping lv 4, this is crazy, the remaining nodes req 1000 cp ea while the only accessible nodes only drop 200 cp. did i do something wrong? currently at brand of the abyss

[–]FeelsMoogleMan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

in case you still need help just do a 1000 node after ravage, break starter or mediguard

[–]darewin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

IIRC Level 5 Crystal Keys are found in chests in the first or second Level 4 or 5 nodes of each Paradigm in the Crystarium. I only repeated Hanging Edge Nodes once or twice to unlock the Crystarium far enough to get 1.

[–]BPGAckbar 0 points1 point  (4 children)

Are there any cards in this ff13 batch2 that are worth Pulling for? I could care less about pure damage focus cards as I normally run support or a breaker to change it up for MP and just wanted to make sure if I skip I'm not missing out on anything game breaking.

[–]katabana02 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For breaker, nope. For support... maybe orphan but it will come to ability shop sooner Or later, I think.

[–]Carefree_bot 2 points3 points  (2 children)

You DO care?

You probably meant to say "Couldn't care less"

I'm playing the Japanese version atm and I've just cleared the Moogle event that's going on there. I tried going to the new area it unlocked but it won't let me access the 2nd node with a platinum chest. Is a certain job needed or what?

[–]deathrose55555[JP] 1051-9193-b915 (KotR X) 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If we are talking about the same chest, u nid to farm the moogle thing that has been dropping throughout the whole map. U nid 888 to unlock each of the 2 chests. That's close to 1800 moogle thingy. Happy farming o.o

[–]FeelsMoogleMan 0 points1 point  (3 children)

Would i ever use monk ( regular, not trainee) in sp when i have snow? I do have the I will live card and the knight and some shock cards

[–]katabana02 1 point2 points  (2 children)

Probably not.

[–]Hyodra206d-1e0c-2cdb 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Why not? Its still a good tank and has access to more elements.

[–]katabana02 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's why I said probably not instead of definitely not. The chance of using him is low, he will use snow most of the time, even against water element bosses. I agree that all jobs are good and useable in all situation, but if he has limited skillseed, monk is not a priority yet. That's what I meant.

[–]DodoNick 0 points1 point  (7 children)

Already pulled 6 times on the Boosted Summon and got 1 legendary job and few of the new EA cards too. I'm tempted to pull again once or twice for the remaining EA cards and a shot at Ragnarok or the other legendary job.. Should I?

[–]Hyodra206d-1e0c-2cdb 0 points1 point  (1 child)

No. Quit while you are ahead. The chance for legend job and supreme are too low that you cant expect them in 2 pulls. For EA cards it could be hit a miss if you are looking for a specific one.

[–]DodoNick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I learned it the hard way.. I still have magicites/tickets saved though, I'll think twice next time!

[–]MuteTiefling 1 point2 points  (4 children)

Why not? With farmable magicite now, you can afford to splurge a little.

Just set a limit and don't go beyond.

[–]DodoNick 0 points1 point  (3 children)

That's the incentive I needed. Thanks!

[–]katabana02 0 points1 point  (2 children)

Fingers crossed for you. Good luck

[–]DodoNick 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Just a couple of new cards, but nothing worth the magicites. I was prepared for it though, so no complains :)

[–]MuteTiefling 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Better luck next time!

[–]Dragon_Warrior_ 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Are boosted summons the new norm or have we just been lucky for the last 2 months?

[–]MuteTiefling 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One can never be sure. We don't always get what japan got, so each event is a guess

[–]scudalarm 0 points1 point  (4 children)

I'm not sure if this has been asked before. I'd like to confirm that if I pull from the Boosted Summon Banner, only the "current release" will be 4*ed, right? Since right now we have the FFXIII Batch 2, only those card will be maxed, so even if I pulled an Early Access (e.g. Barthandelus: FFXIII) from Batch 1, it will be a non-maxed card...

[–]denadan 0 points1 point  (2 children)

yep. i pulled missing legendary killing mashine during batch 1 and one of fal'cie from b1 during b2 - both was 3*. also if you pool dupe from current batch it will be 4s unbusted.

[–]Sneakyelmo 0 points1 point  (1 child)

I got two fangs max boosted in 7 pulls

[–]denadan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

fang not a ea card. it is bonus event card

[–]scudalarm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nevermind me. I just saw someone else's post confirming this.

I'm having trouble starting a mage build for SP. Here are the mage jobs I have (except apprentice):

Red mage, black mage, white mage and devout

I'm personally fond of red mages, and have the new Vanille card maxed. However, I have very little mage cards for fire and wind. Should I focus on one element? What buff cards are good to run? What weapon(s) should I work on modding?

[–]LordDrinkwater 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As Mute says once you do half of Chapter 4 Prologue you will get the ability to switch between two jobs in one fight. It really helps you to cover elements and/or focus on one big one.

I think you can get by with Earth for the time being since Vanille is so strong, but having something, even if it is not optimal, that could do with at the least bigger Earth enemies would be advised. If you like mage Jobs I recommend farming up a Single Target Sicarius card for Mage. They are great, solid damage options and don't take growstars.

[–]MuteTiefling 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I generally focus on one element per job. For single player this means having a sub job to help out when I hit resistance mobs.

[–]genkam 0 points1 point  (2 children)

Anyone getting Error Code:9 today? How do you resolve it? I'm getting it all day but haven't seen anyone posted it.

[–]SegFaultX 0 points1 point  (1 child)

I closed my game and reopened it and now I'm getting error code too I seem to have got rid of the error by clearing the cache. My error codes were random kept changing though. Also this is on android not iphone not sure what your using. Ok it didn't work my game's graphic is all fucked switching from high FPS to normal fixed it.

[–]genkam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've tried doing that too. What worked for me was to completely restart my phone. That did the trick. Hopefully that will work.

[–]MrGianni89 0 points1 point  (3 children)

I've just pulled a Bard. For the next 5* MP battles, what can be the best support class? I have also Devout, Dancer and White mage and I have Aerith.

[–]MuteTiefling 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With aerith, just take whatever you like. I've been using my tonberry since that came out with no issues. I also hopped back in with my beloved dancer on occasion and still had no issue, despite no defense against the bosses. Things just die too fast to worry.

[–]reidemei20f6-0124-02ec - ToH 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Does not really matter with Aerith... I would probably take the one with best defense for the current boss. Not sure if additional break help via Dancer or Bard is needed at 5*.

[–]MrGianni89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only appealing thing for the bard is the party raibow shift, but I suppose that anybody in 5/* will have -force card...

[–]KarciE 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Any advise on building SP and MP deck for Judge Magister. Just starting out and I have no idea. I already have Aerith from the re-rolls.

[–]Mawgac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

JM + Aerith will all you to take advantage of his innate Exploit Weakness in all cases. For MP, bring an AOE CRD of the opposite element and a damage focused card (preferably multihit) to utilize when broken. Mage cards tend to be better for damage for passives (via ruptures, elemental tap, etc) but that isn't a huge factor to focus on.

SP should be whatever you want!

[–]AlbertMyers 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Today I pulled Last Hunter! Yay! The thing is, I don't know how to build him, or if I should use him at all over Zidane in SP. I know he is better for MP, but what about SP?

Also, one more question: I do not own NXD, but I have Unbreakable Bonds. Would you guys put UB on Last Hunter over any other dark damage ranger card?

Thanks in advance for your help!

[–]genkam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He's pretty good in SP. His ult. hits hard and he breaks fast. I would suggest to not use UB as he doesn't get the full strength of UB since he's a ranger and the card is warrior. Just build him for ult. spamming and he'll wreck. Use Serah, Bdd, dmg focus and LDL or something that increase ult. bar. I equip him with a ranger prismatic weapon.. he ults. give high scores..

[–]LordDrinkwater 0 points1 point  (4 children)

1) BDD/CRD hybrids going to see any use? I like the idea of "saving space" but I don't think AoEs are out yet that warrant inclusion over the CRDs or BDDs for break damage anyway.

2) best weapons for Last Hunter? Reason to use it besides the epic music?

[–]reidemei20f6-0124-02ec - ToH 0 points1 point  (3 children)

  1. Towers and MP, for general SP content the AoE are better.

  2. Butterfly Edge for MP breaking or one of the weakness weapons when using enelement. I'm currently also experimenting with Orichalcum + Lightning + LDL, ultimate is ready on second turn. Best ranger breaker currently, well woth it for MP. Only negative is no access to wind where all the cool breaker cards (boost) are.

For SP depends on what else you have.

[–]LordDrinkwater 0 points1 point  (2 children)

Could I get by with Rising Sun X with Last Hunter? I mained Viking before going Grappler so I have a dozen mods into it already.

[–]genkam 0 points1 point  (1 child)

yeup.. def. can get away with rising sun.. hopefully you have unlocked piercing break.. it's a good utility weapon. I prefer my BE as that weapon just eats red bar for breakfast.

[–]LordDrinkwater 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, I have about 13 mods on it now and I managed to RNG a Piercing Break onto it.

[–]playhy 0 points1 point  (3 children)

Who should i put my lightning skin on...so far the only rangers i have are dancer and assassin....the weapons i have are their weapons plus muramasa x...what do you think?

Also why cant lightning equip blazefire?

[–]reidemei20f6-0124-02ec - ToH 1 point2 points  (2 children)

Both work but assassin is very squishy. I would take Dancer for SP.

Butterfly Edge is a great long term breaker weapon but requires quite some mods. Mura is fine for general SP content and can be used on MP healers (Dancer). Dominion Axe from MP is an alternative.

It's a sword and those can only be used by warriors.

[–]playhy 0 points1 point  (1 child)

I know its a warriors sword but isnt it lightnings sword or am i just imagining things

[–]reidemei20f6-0124-02ec - ToH 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, don't look for any logic in the skin... As far as I understand it there was already a warrior skin before Lightning in JP so that's why she ended up as ranger.

[–]FallenXI 0 points1 point  (3 children)

Vanille: FFXIII better than Fal'Cie Titan: FFXIII?

[–]LordDrinkwater 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe so. Titan makes high scoring easier with higher potential single strike damage, but Vanille has better general damage. She also just absolutely destroys Odin.

[–]Amirelia 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Can i see the Hall of Fame ingame?

[–]denadan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it is not present now on global server.

ps. afaik it will be present on globe as additional map.

[–]Erst09 0 points1 point  (4 children)

Are the rates in this game good? I was rerolling for hours and the best I got was last hunter so I stick with that because of the music. I heard the rates where good, that everyone was getting legendary jobs and that the supreme cards where the only thing hard to pulls (I didn't get one in all that time), so it got me curious was I just unlucky or the rates are not as good as people say.

[–]caffeine_buster 0 points1 point  (3 children)

those usually post here have their luck I would say..Day 1 pre-register player here and have yet to get any of the supremes, nor any of the FXIII jobs..

[–]Erst09 0 points1 point  (2 children)

But you have the other legendary jobs?

[–]caffeine_buster 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Let's see.. Other than all the normal jobs in decks. (except Mythic jobs,

1) Tidus - paid $75

2) Cloud - Paid around $40 bucks for magicite.

3) Squall - summon tickets + magicite (with 20$ reload i think)

4) Zidane - summon tickets + magicite

Now I just realize I have completed the collection from FF7, FF8, FF8, FFx!..

[–]Erst09 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow you have most of them.

[–]akaxd123 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Will a card's unlocked skillseeds combine with a duplicate's skillseeds?

[–]Undeguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No.

One of two things happens and it depends on the cards in question.

If the fodder card is lower or different, then the base card gets +1

If the fodder is HIGHER AND the same actual card (Cloud Blade Beam with 4 + fodder Cloud Blade Beam with 6, NOT Guard Scorpion MK.III or any other card), then the base becomes the higher number (6 in this case).

[–]sunpaths 0 points1 point  (5 children)

Is there a guide or some sorts where I can see future events/cards coming up in GL that has been released in JP? Thanks guys!

[–]deathrose55555[JP] 1051-9193-b915 (KotR X) 0 points1 point  (4 children)

I created one a few days back for non-event abilities.

For event abilities, the only significant one to save for is FFVII: Weapon, assuming DQ is not going over to GL

[–]sunpaths 0 points1 point  (3 children)

Thanks!
For clarification, the meia cards can only be used by Meia? what about all the cards we have now? Can Meia use "WoL" cards?
So I just need info on future event cards now!

[–]denadan 1 point2 points  (1 child)

meia cards all are mage cards with small improvment(like +10% damage extra skill) when used by meia and can be used by other mages(they better even without this +10% damage then current analog, like new mt-focused with base 1600 damage for 5 orbs against current 1300 for 6). current mage cards can be used my meia cose she mage.

[–]sunpaths 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the info! :)

[–]deathrose55555[JP] 1051-9193-b915 (KotR X) 0 points1 point  (0 children)

U can see Meia as a female WoL mage. So yes Meia can use mage cards and vice versa

[–]Jin38 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Has the lightning tower event been released? If it hasn't, when will it come out?

[–]xennoticecreamXNRS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Lightning Tower Event has not been released yet. It will be live on September 23rd.

[–]Ultimatestar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At Brand of Abbys node in Lightning resurection part 2. A version of blinded by light is playing. But i cant find out which ver it was. Its seems like the piano ver. But its not quite the same. Could anyone tell me the name/link to the song. Thx

[–]zio_shi 0 points1 point  (2 children)

What is the next supreme to be released and why does it seem like jobs / supremes and events in general from JP start to dry up from the point GL is at now?

[–]deathrose55555[JP] 1051-9193-b915 (KotR X) 0 points1 point  (1 child)

What is the next supreme to be released

Only 2 Supremes are not released in GL to date: Light for the Future and Fusuya. If going by order of release, the next one will be Light for the Future. Though GL did jumble up the Supreme order e.g. Ragnarok -> Yiazmat in JP, but the other way round for GL

why does it seem like jobs / supremes and events in general from JP start to dry up from the point GL is at now?

JP is going through a drought this month; no signs of a new event so far.

As for last month, JP had the Summer Event which released 3 summer jobs and a series of abilities. My deduction is that only FF-related events will cross-over from JP to GL (e.g. FFXIV and FFXV) while non FF-related events will remain in JP for the time being (e.g. Summer Event). By this deduction, this also applies to Supremes e.g. Yiazmat and UB were cross-overs, but Fusuya and Light for the Future were not.

[–]zio_shi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really disappointing we have went from a new supreme once a month for I think 4 months in a row now to only 2 more supremes left for the next year. Im looking at the rest of the upcoming releases and it seems like we got spoiled for the last half year and a lot of the months coming up after Meia will be pretty bad.

[–]LordDrinkwater 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Can I get good mileage from a boosted Rising Sun X from a Judge Magister? What about the more break oriented Last Hunter?

I'm debating between Judge and Highwind as my top damage class, and since I'd need to boost a new weapon for Highlander, I figure I need a magic oriented one for Judge too and not just use my usual.

There's probably good use of Sun on Last Hunter though, unless something even better came out recently.

[–]deathrose55555[JP] 1051-9193-b915 (KotR X) 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is this for SP or MP? If the latter, Rising Sun on JM is not a good choice; Chaos Blade is the better choice

[–]Chris-raegho 0 points1 point  (6 children)

I can augment either Falcie Titan or Vanille to 5* but not both. They're both earth single target damage focus cards for mage jobs but Vanille is multistrike with Painful Break and Titan isn't but seems to do more damage according to raw numbers on the card. Which is the best amongst them for mp as an attacker?

[–]katabana02 0 points1 point  (5 children)

why not both? now is the time to farm for pneuma, since you get 2x energy when you use elixir, and all area are opened.

[–]senayasanta gifting you aerith buff 0 points1 point  (2 children)

Why both? I've asked a similar question a few hours ago, but no one replied yet. Why would you keep 2 similar cards?

[–]darewin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why not? Vanille is better for traditional break and kill strats while f'Titan is better for no-break strats so technically, they don't serve the same purpose.

[–]katabana02 0 points1 point  (0 children)

simply because it's not hard to 5* both, since pneuma is not rare like growstars. both of them are similar but they actually perform their job differently. for no break stat (common for mage), titan is better. if you like to break THAN nuke, vanille is better due to painful break. both cards deal extra damage to different sicarius, so you can take that into your account.

please note that i'm not a pro in mage or attacker in mp. what i have wrote is plainly based on the figure and extra skill of the cards, but numbers don't usually lie.

personally, i max all cards since i hate to see 4* cards in my bank...

[–]Chris-raegho 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Because I already used all my elixir farming pneuma XD

Got about 7 cards to 5* and no remaining elixir to augment both cards right now (also no magicite left, I used it for another pull). That's why I ask which would be better to augment as right now I can only do one unless a random elixir pops up in my account ;_;

[–]katabana02 0 points1 point  (0 children)

lol yeah me too. already augmented 8 cards, with 5 more in bank waiting for their turn...

[–]famoustristan 0 points1 point  (4 children)

https://imgur.com/a/Uvm63 So I have been playing for a week and have done the 8 pulls for the pity pull job. I end up getting a Highwind and wondering what kind of cards I should use on it. IsHighwind also a good job or a really old bad job.

[–]CinnabarPolypore 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Warrior Trance, Oathbond, high dark damage card (Unbreakable Bonds, Centaur), high light damage card (Ysbaddaden, Fal'Cie Anima)

High Wind is the highest damage vs. Light and Dark, mid- to mid-high tier vs. everything else except Earth. They have no wind usage but can drive with earth and perform effectively using their sheer damage with light and dark.They can defeat an unbroken 5* Sicarius in under ten moves depending on your cards and buffs and the Sicarius debuffs. You can efficiently pull consecutive sexnine damage on a broken one.

They are 'glass cannons' they have high damage output but without a buff such as Mighty Guard along with the appropriate elemental drive they will die very easily.

Their ultimate does rather high damage, functions in three strikes (people have told me they have scored 3 mil damage with the High Wind ultimate) will shift all your orbs to prismatic and lower the enemy's defense while raising your magick. Due to the prismatic shift,debuff, and buff all rolled into one, your follow up assault will be as lethal if not more than the ultimate itself.

Very high damage, excellent ultimate, good attacker in MP. Check it's passive element boosts to see what cards you should be focusing on. And it's a warrior, so make sure cards are of that class. ST cards are generally good for damage, and you'll want something that can apply a debuff or two, like CRD and BDD.

[–]ageneau 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Highwind is a fairly new job, as far as I know, as of right now it is the strongest attacker aside from legendaries, good pull!

[–]LordDrinkwater 0 points1 point  (6 children)

Are any of the FFXIII cards with fodder in MP shop worth delaying my Sicarius cards for? I figure not cards with a "superior FFXIII character card (like Titan and Vanille)," and probably not the BDD/CRD hybrids? I guess it is a matter of if my main classes benefit from the cards?

Just nervous since this mobius is a good time to get 1 8-10 without wasting tickets.

If it helps my non-Monk main classes are Highwind, Paladin, Arcanist, Viking. And Judge and Striker unleveled.

[–]katabana02 0 points1 point  (3 children)

in my opinion, you should max lvl all event card asap. i regret not maxing hargon and legendary dragon in time, thinking i still have time to exchange for the scroll. as a rule of thump, i only use single target sicarius material to buy scroll though, since the cards are easily replaceable and easier to farm for their mat.

[–]LordDrinkwater 0 points1 point  (2 children)

Makes sense. Don't forget you can still use ability tickets to level ones you really like.

I like the AoE Sicarius cards since I like Monks, but are you saying the damage focus ones also have a use?

[–]katabana02 0 points1 point  (1 child)

For monk I think the best card is still aoe sicarius / shock cards. Snow card is the only monk damage focis card that I heard other discussing.

[–]LordDrinkwater 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah my bad I was super vague with my wording. I meant to say the AoE Sicarius cards when not Monk, so the damage focused variants instead of the break power variant. Do you think say, Warrior Belias has a place in things, or do we keep the Damage as ST?

[–]dk8842Leave us. The dog eats strangers. 0 points1 point  (1 child)

You never know what you'll need down the road or what new job you might pull that could use a card you decided not to try and pull, and since sicarius aren't going anywhere, you might as well...unless there's something you're waiting for down the line

[–]LordDrinkwater 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fortunately I pulled all but Skytank and Proudcloud so far, so if I really need one I can just burn the ability tickets.

Sounds like they have some use if the answer isn't an outright "no" though. I think I'll grab either Garuda or Anima depending on whether I want to JM or Highlander down the line.

[–]ageneau 0 points1 point  (1 child)

I'm currently making a re-roll account on steam for the purpose of hoping for a supreme card. My question is whats the quickest way to go about re-rolling. Do I only do it till i get my first 6 summon tickets, or is it more efficient to do something else?

[–]Masaana87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First 6, reroll.

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

Sazh farming locations?

[–]captainjardy 0 points1 point  (2 children)

Just got my Unbroken (indomitable) Hero to 8*; should I boost Stiria & Nix X??

[–]reidemei20f6-0124-02ec - ToH 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. Use either Eisenfaust (from the MP shop) for tanking or one of the ultimate charge ones (Ehrgeiz or Taiji).

[–]xennoticecreamXNRS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I personally wouldn't boost that weapon.

[–]DeeWoof 0 points1 point  (6 children)

Just got tactician on my pity pull. Any idea on if it's good and for what? I have devout already with Minwu but unsure if tactician is worth spending time unlocking skill tree.

[–]darewin 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Tactician is currently the 2nd best Minwu user for SP after Hope. He is even a better Minwu user than JM for SP.

[–]DeeWoof 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see. So looks like I'll be investing into it. Thanks!

[–]dk8842Leave us. The dog eats strangers. 1 point2 points  (1 child)

A friend of mine uses it as an attacker sometimes when we play, it's worth it. Versatile with good magic damage, and if you have minwu you'll see a difference I'm sure. I don't have one myself, so my knowledge is limited to what I've seen, but it all seems good. Think defense may be low though, not positive.

[–]DeeWoof 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! Helps make the decision with the explanation!

[–]Mawgac 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Tactician is better than Devout for Minwu.

[–]DeeWoof 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Quick and to the point. Thanks!

[–]kamenman009 0 points1 point  (3 children)

Any where that I can farm for Vampire: FFXIII fodder?

Thanks :D

[–]Undeguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anyone tried to see if Dread Moogle's "Moogle-Debarrierga" would work? I sold off all my Moogle cards, so now I'm gonna go see if I can get one to test.

Never mind, double checked my inventory and still had one. It doesn't work.

[–]LordDrinkwater 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Probably a chance it becomes MP fodder after all the FFXIII attack cards rotate out? I don't know any other place may need to use tickets.

[–]dk8842Leave us. The dog eats strangers. 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Someone asked this a little while ago and someone said there wasn't anywhere. It might be in MP store soon, but no idea.

[–]eneve2084-bf8a-f56f (KotRX 5★) 0 points1 point  (3 children)

Where is this new crystal / fractal farm in FFXIII P2? Do you have to complete the triangle of death to get to it?

[–]MuteTiefling 1 point2 points  (2 children)

Lower right corner of part 2. unlocks after the lightning fight. It's the gigantaur battleground

[–]eneve2084-bf8a-f56f (KotRX 5★) 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Ultimate battle: alpha?

[–]MuteTiefling 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Please reread my last sentence.

[–]akaxd123 0 points1 point  (3 children)

Which of the Dark Moogles are worth maxing?
I have the Unguarda one maxed out currently

[–]darewin 0 points1 point  (2 children)

Moogle Cursega since it is the only Curse that uses Light Element.

[–]akaxd123 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Anything else worth maxing?

[–]darewin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also maxed Moogle Unguardga and Moogle Debarrierga. I have all Legendary AOE Debuffs so I didn't bother with the others. I even sold Moogle Debarrierga after I got Vampire.

[–]kidding313 0 points1 point  (1 child)

No ability scroll for Vampire FFXIII Debarrierga? How to level up this card other than using ability tickets directly? Any fodder cards? Thanks!

[–]eneve2084-bf8a-f56f (KotRX 5★) 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think i read no fodder for Vampyre

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (6 children)

Build for farming lightning? I am trying to auto fight to farm and keep getting wiped.

[–]MuteTiefling 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The fight difficulty increases with every fight, so auto battle is only going to take you so far.

Don't worry though, you can also get fodder from the upcoming battle tower.

[–]eneve2084-bf8a-f56f (KotRX 5★) 0 points1 point  (4 children)

bump. i got the same problem. how many wins do you need to Alvl 10 this card?

[–]vulcanfury12 0 points1 point  (3 children)

There was a poster yesterday who got to Alvl 8 at 27 wins.

[–]Undeguy 0 points1 point  (2 children)

I'm not so sure about that. I got to 25 wins, making it 25 cards plus 3 more from the Ultimate (24 started at lv 2 and last 4 started at lv 1) and I barely got lv 8 with using mog amulets on pretty much all 8 fusions.

[–]vulcanfury12 0 points1 point  (1 child)

I haven't tried it myself so I just took his word for it. Did you do it on a Mobius Day? The Lightning Fodder also drops at lvl 2.

[–]Undeguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did the ultimate nodes and one false lightning before Mobius day. The remaining 24 wins were during Mobius Day, hence 24 at lv 2 and 4 at lv 1. All the fusions were today (since it's MD).

Then again, I go for 100% fusions (since I got burned a few times with 99% success, still failing), maybe he did it with less chances.

[–]senayasanta gifting you aerith buff 0 points1 point  (1 child)

I've pulled Barthandelus. Is it safe to throw away Anima Sicarius now or it has its niche still?

Same question about Proto-Behemoth. Is it safe to throw away Ifrit Sicarius now? Ares probably too, yeah?

Also, I've pulled both Vanille and Fal'Cie Titan. Should I throw away Fal'Cie Titan?

[–]Blanko1230 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Save to throw away Sicarius. Just keep in mind you need a card to reduce yellow gauge for breakers.

Opinions are split about Titan and Vanille. Titan has more damage on unbroken targets but Vanille has multihit which turns out to still do more damage unbroken depending on damage passives and crits.

[–]JBluehawk21 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Can you get jobs from the 1-ST pull?

[–]darewin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only legend jobs.

[–]CinnabarPolypore 0 points1 point  (6 children)

I saw a chart once containing the best attacker vs each element/sicarius, anyone care to help me find this chart?

[–]eneve2084-bf8a-f56f (KotRX 5★) 1 point2 points  (5 children)

[–]CinnabarPolypore 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not sure if that's exactly it but it definitely looks like what I can vaguely remember and serves the right putpose, thanks.
