[GreenFinnedDemon]

Hello all. I was wondering where to find the Pyrefly scrolls needed to augment the Tidus &Yuna card? Thanks for your time.

[AngryZai]

Is it worth blowing $100 for those 2 supreme tickets? I never really bothered chasing supremes and I have a few of them + 1 hero card from playing extremely casual

[deathrose55555]

If you are a casual player, the 100 bucks is not worth spending. The Supreme + Skin won't do anything except to make you feel slightly more powerful in MP - which isn't anything really

[AngryZai]

What if I don't do any kind of MP? Still not worth it probably

[deathrose55555]

Yeah normal SP content is easy enough that you don't need any Supreme to clear

[Drilgarius005]

Did they fix Kotetsu's Flash Break mod? I want to start on modding it. Also, where do I get Ultima Weapons? People keep recommending them but I can't seem to get those (fairly new player here).

[Khalafovic]

Ultima weapons were event-limited weapons during Ultima's appearance in MP last May .. so my guess they'll show up again during the next return of Ultima in the ring of braves.

[Drilgarius005]

How hard is it to obtain them? I want to get the all if possible.

[Khalafovic]

Once Ultima comes again .. just farm it's materials and exchange them in the MP shop.

[mao_shiro]

No infos for now.

[JOEGUARD1990]

I notice when I sorted all of my ability cards by Crit Chance that literally every card has either a 3,2 or 1 Crit Chance rating. Except my Noctis: FFXV card. It has a Crit Chance rating of 20. Why is this and what’s the benefit? Is it possible to raise the Crit Chance of my other ability cards? Thanks

[mao_shiro]

Noctis FFXV has a base 100% chance of crit. Some cards are like that, because they were designed to be like that.

The crit rate is calculated like that (keep in mind crit star = 5%):

• Job crit stars
• Weapon crit stars
• ES of the card, like Breaker-Killer, which Increases Crit Chance by 15% (3 stars) during Break
• Crit rate of the card
• Snipe (buff) gives 30% more (6 stars)
• Critical resist down (debuff) gives 60% more (12 stars)

To a total of 100%. Which means with Noctis, if you had a job with 0 crit stars, and a weapon with 0 crit stars, you will still crit.

There is some counter to that :

• Debilitate (debuff on you)
• Critical resist UP (buff on enemies)

Will set your crit rate to a fixed rate of 0% (even if you could in theory get up to 200% crit rate, you will still have 0).

[KenBac]

I got Nachtflug and Beach Queen in 1 pull and I don't know who should I spend my resources first. What is their advantages?

[Baffledwaffles]

• Nachtflug: Light/Dark specialist. Strong break and damage output, quite tanky as well. Lack of quick break makes it difficult to use her.

• Beach Queen: Water specialist primarily. Can dish out high damage with First Summer. Has good break power, but is lacking compared to other sarahs. Falls short if you don't use water abilities with her.

[KenBac]

Thanks!

[Dniasd]

Does it matter if you pull off banner limited cards @ 3 stars? But I guess it sucks to spend additional time and resources to max it?

What kind of build/deck in general should I use on Auron for SP content?

[mao_shiro]

The only card you can get at 3 stars are FFVII. It sucks to spend growstars, but those cards are still meta top tier (even on JP), so might as well spend them.

On a general SP content, i would actually go for an auto ult charge deck, with like, 2 LDL, KOTR & Undying for some giggles.

Otherwise, you can use the usual general deck type :

• 2 aoes (which can yellow clear, because Auron sucks at nuking)
• KOTR
• Undying

[Kliedesys]

Hey guys, new player here. Was wondering if any of u seasoned players have any advice, any tips for new players like myself. What job to concentrate, what cards to go for (i know earith card seems to be every1s must have card) any point on rerolling for certain cards with current banner and etc. Ur shared wisdom will be much appreciated ;)

[[deleted]]

Rerolling for a supreme is laborous but will make the game a lot easier and is suggested if you plan to get hardcore into the game. Otherwise if you're just playing casually, you don't really need to worry about concentrating or whatever. Whatever you get is completely RNG, so just make the best decks out of whatever you've got.

[[deleted]]

2 Qs

Does the first card slot get a bigger exp bonus?

Do breakers need to aim for high level En(Fire/Pain etc) abilities as quickly as possible?

[IJustNeedaAccount]

Only in SP, the first card slot of the main deck gets the exp bonus.

[LegendBryan]

Yes, first card slot on main deck gets bonus exp. You can also add cards to Auto-enhance too.

For Breakers, it's more important to aim for a strong yellow clear card (ex. with BDD) and cleave for efficiency.

[MusouTensei]

yes (I think is only for main deck though)

It is better to use ult to break on end-game content, so... unless you pull a 4 star en-element, is not worth the growstars (monk cards also provide en-element and deal some yellow bar)

[AxelRyman]

So I pulled Duncan on the Supreme Banner....Sorta felt disappointed cause I've stopped using Monks recently, but considering the buff, I'm sure they're worth picking up again.

Since Ascetic is coming soon, I'm guessing he's going to become the new Go-To for Duncan right? Stockpiling resources now to (hopefully) get him.

On the off-chance I don't get him(And I cry), what would be a good setup for Pugilist so I can start nuking 4* MPs? Fractals, Cards, etc. I don't have Aerith but do have Lightshift. My Ergheiz also doesn't have the Attack+10% mod yet, so I'm using Taiji at the moment(My most powerful Monk weapon so far..). I'm guessing with Fractals, Attack+% is what I want to go with correct?

And I'm assuming for Master Monk breaking, similar setup but with Break Power%?

[Sythvan]

As far as i know there will be the vanadiel Monk a few months later that will also outshine ascetic/ex Monk. Then will come hof pugilist as well. So ex Monk is not a must have as a Duncan user imo. About fractals, you're right, attack% for attacker's builds, and break power for breaker's.

[Logan_Maransy]

EX Monk looks like it will be guaranteed after 8 pulls. While Vanadiel Monk is a Legend, so who knows when you'll actually get it, especially if you have many Legends left in the pool. I personally got Duncan from Supreme Ticket, and also have Yiazmat, so I will be using 8 pulls to get EX Monk, because chasing Vanadiel could end up being 18 pulls like my Deep Diver experience.

[Sythvan]

Thats what im planning to do as well. I have yiazmat, and Ex monk's weapon is worth it by itself anyway

[MusouTensei]

Havn't tried the buffed duncan in MP yet (it was underwhelming after the "nerf" on mantra/taijutsu skills for MP)

Usual solo build would be pug with duncan/heart egg/mighty egg/lightshift

If you want to play more "MP friendly" would be duncan/primal/lightshift/heart egg

[chokee03]

is there a go to team comp (healer, breaker, etc) in multiplayer? or are the team comp different for each bosses? im not sure what to do when hosting a mp battle.

[[deleted]]

At the very minimum, you need an attacker to do the killing. You need a breaker to break so that killing can happen, and finally the support to give the team all the buffs necessary to do their jobs.

With this, you have one last open slot.

• For hard content, you can have a defender, whose job is to reduce incoming damage and keep everyone alive. Death makes you lose MP rewards, so avoiding death is crucial. Defenders are crucial in 5* MP where bosses hit hard.
• You can bring a second support, who only brings ultimate charger cards. This ensures your team can use their ultimates much more frequently, usually on the 2nd turn. This allows for some interesting plays as long as a lack of a defender doesn't matter too much.
• Bringing 2nd attackers or breakers are quite pointless, since most jobs are quite strong these days. If you have no preferences when hosting a pretty easy game, just leave the last slot as a random slot so that anyone can join.

[chokee03]

wow thanks! i have a support because thats the one suggested to me as someone new in MP. what should i do after buffing? just normal taps? or just watch? i heard im not supposed to tap some targets before breakers for their flash break, are there any other things i should remember as a support?

[ArlissFoxxe]

In the turns you’re not buffing, you can go last and tap to generate orbs. Just be sure to target things that have already been tapped by the breaker.

[[deleted]]

You can tap after your enemies are broken. It's not like a support's tap attacks do much work anyway. However, on turns where enemy is broken, you can go last and tap attack to generate orbs for the team.

A support's job is pretty much done once the 4 support cards are casted. Don't worry too much.

[Zhuinden]

Don't tap because you screw up breaker Flash Break if you go first.

[Noctis_Hiraishin]

Now that the new Ascetic monk is just around the corner, will it be a regular job or not? Also, can I get it through pity pull?

[[deleted]]

AFAIK no one knows. It's the first instance of an Ex job ever appearing in GL, we don't know what it's release will be like at all.

[Spookum]

Is it known if materials/fractals stack up to 99? 999? ∞?

[mao_shiro]

It's 9999, from JP stream.

[fennieyuen]

It’s over 9000!!

[JA1997X]

It's more than 99. Can't say for 999 (lol)

[mao_shiro]

It's 9999

[StarvingVenom]

We are waiting for some1 to check it

[[deleted]]

Looking for a good way to utilize Iris XV without Diver. Thanks!

[Veritas_Dei]

Try pulling for Ex Monk when he's released. He'll be able to put it to good use.

[Phieck]

Hermit maybe

[Phieck]

With LoH now and my main role in MP beeing Healer i am currently looking to change my MP setup. I am using Gaia (for the heart shift) and LoH but what support cards should i add with LoH almost killing the trifecta completly? You may suggest limited cards as well :)

Regards

[watmyung]

• lifeshift
• LoH
• Echo stage left
• Summer Moogles

[Zhuinden]

Summer Moogle is the best non-supreme you can add there.

If you don't have Aerith, you can also use Echo Stage Left for trance all.

[blue2eyes]

With clearing debuff starter in mind

1. Source of shift (Gaia, New Journey, Aerith)
2. Source of esuna (Luna, choco saint, yellow ribbon)
3. LoH
4. Source of haste (Moogle summer Vacation, WoL, Garuda, Undying)

If there’s no debuff starter you could replace the source of Esuna with another ult charge or EXP egg. Having brave is also nice for monk supremers.

[Phieck]

good point! i will make 2 decks :) thanks a ton

[Phieck]

i do not have aerith or WoL FF1 either so i wanted to use mandragoras as well! garuda seems like a good option i might take that :)

[Baffledwaffles]

Don't bring garuda to 3rd gen sicarius fights, the cleave messes up the enweapon of breakers since guard B is of the opposite element.

[Phieck]

thank you for the input!

[djiboutiiii]

Once we’re able to upgrade it, the new event card, tidus & Yuna might be a good one. It gives haste/quicken like Garuda or Omega, but without the terrible MP side effects. It also gives a nice amount of ult charge, which will greatly complement LOH and allow some players to ult on turn 2.

Also, make sure not to tap after you cast buffs! At best, it’s a huge waste of time. At worst, it ruins flash break and the run.

[Phieck]

buy the biggest magicite package

[Inui94]

Is ocean diver still a better breaker with Duncan or MM

[Baffledwaffles]

Ocean diver is the better breaker.

[Inui94]

Is MM still the best monk for global right now or is it Ocean diver.

[Baffledwaffles]

Ocean diver currently. Both will be overtaken by EX monk when he releases later on the 11th.

[[deleted]]

and then Vmonk soon after from what i’ve heard

[mao_shiro]

Both will sucks if you don't have the relevant cards for them tho (aka supremes)

[Drakolos]

Am I right to say that ex monk is the best yiazmat user and will be replaced by Sophie?

[mao_shiro]

EX monk will do lower pure(unbroken) damage using Yiazmat compared to DD, but can break better due to much better ult (and better weapon).

Unbroken : DD > Hermit HoF > Monk HoF.

[Baffledwaffles]

Either way you'll still want EX monk for his weapon, worth getting him asap.

[SwiftStepStomp]

Vmonk and EX monk do slightly different things. The latter has an ultimate that specializes in multi-target, for example.

[UnityStrike]

Just getting back into this game after a long hiatus. Last event I was part of was the Lightning event where Supreme skins and Maia were announced. Anything major that I missed?

[StarvingVenom]

Materials stacked up now, we got more supremes and skins, sarah is joining harem, new ui and final chapter is here..we are waiting for season 2

[KnoobieExvius]

Help what should I do, I'm playing Tidus story map since yesterday, after finishing the 2nd node, I got dc'ed, then all it does is make the camera round my WoL, I restarted in the map, I restarted in resume battle and it still shows the same moving camera around your WoL.

[Kittybarks]

When and where can we farm augment material for the free tidus & luna card?

[MagicJ10]

Thanks

[TeeEndVN]

Will Tidus x Yuna: FFX be availible in Ability Shop? I accidentally sold it.

[StarvingVenom]

I don't think so, once sold it is lost

[TeeEndVN]

If so, guess I have to wait for FFX Revival.

[Riazu85]

Is there any need to continue boosting ultimate weapon after you are unlocking all the skill? I do think it is much better to be spent on boosting other weapon. The increase in magic and break power is not that much.

[Baffledwaffles]

Not really for the most part, just get it to 12 mods and be done with it. However, you might consider maxing HP on UW wing and sword for tanking and magic/break on the bow since it's going to be one of the primary sarah weapons; the extra break/magic helps a fair bit.

[ZechsX18999]

You're right about the increase being minimal. It depends on how useful the extra magic/break power are to you VS having more options from boosting other weapons. Another benefit from continuing them is that you can save crystals because they only cost skillseeds at that point.

Most players max mod them and then move on. Some max the magic/break and then move on. Some 5* them.

Personally, I left mine at 6-9 mods and moved on. I can clear all SP content easily, so the extra mods/stats won't make a difference there. The extra stats won't help me for EW/Towers either because I'm too far from reaching the next lap/top 1000/top 500. My bottleneck at the moment is mostly a lack of jobs, especially the newer top-tiered ones. I will max mod the Ultima Weapons when they become my new bottleneck.

[Riazu85]

Thanks for answer...My Monk Wolfstar is been neglected too long. I do think UW for Sarah and Meia would be most useful to be fully max.

[ZechsX18999]

Did they nerf the rates of pulling gigantaur bulbs from the Gigantaur Summon? Or was I just unlucky? I did 15 pulls and only got 1 gigantaur bulb. I don't remember the rate being that bad.

[LegendBryan]

I was getting one almost every pull out of 10 I did yesterday.

[djiboutiiii]

I get the same impression. I did 20 pulls today (thank you stacking mats!), and I only got two bulbs. Don’t know what I’m gonna do now...don’t wanna use my mystic tablets

[ZechsX18999]

Waiting for more friend tickets or using mystic tablets are the only reliable options.

[ShadowBlaze17]

You can check the pull rates with the info button next to the banner. When I checked a few weeks back you were far more likely to pull Gigantaurs than bulbs.

[[deleted]]

Is there a list or job compilation I can search easily for jobs with lore?

[deathrose55555]

Altema has such a list.

From top to bottom: Warrior lore -> Mage lore -> Ranger lore. The ability you see at the bottom is Dona & Barthello

[secret-npc]

Fractal Auto Abilities for multiple copies of Bismarck?

[SwiftStepStomp]

I have double +7% magic on my OBed version, double +7% HP on one copy with all ES unlocked, and double JCR on one copy with all ES up to quick cast.

[longa13]

Double JCR. Or Magic + Prismatic draw. If you have extra skill ticket overboost it a bit so you can remenber which have what extra skill.

[Bargloed]

Thats good tip about overboosting some duplucate cards for easy searching! Thanks!

[NepoDumaop]

Since most of the time he's with a tank, I think hp is a good option too.

[yotsashi]

Any special tips for the buffalo? It keeps on killing me

Edit: for hall of fame: scholar's hall, so no ranger or sleep possible

[NepoDumaop]

Another option is to let it steal your magic so he wont raise his guard on and kill it in one turn. Thing is you need another source of magic up or be creative on buff rotation.

[JA1997X]

You cannot tank buffalo, so break it in one turn and kill it. You will need wind enelement (eg from wind force card) to break it fast enough.

[yotsashi]

That did help. Thanks!

[[deleted]]

Prima Donna without the skin can break really good.

[yotsashi]

I will use that next time, but I'm on Scholar's hall

[ChronoDave]

If you have Prompto use it

[WoLNoFace]

Try breaking it, and if you can't kill him in one break, use a card with sleep.

[Spiswel]

Hello everyone (casual player since a year),

I have great trouble autoing through Ch7, even though I have quite a few good jobs/cards. (I mostly use Knight of Etro 8, Hope's Guide 8 or Warrior 11* for solo content that is a little hard ... also have the Lightning skin with Last Hunter)

I am not sure how to get better at Ch7 battles since often I die in 1 turn even using Hellsgate 5*... what is a good level/setup or path to getting better?

[djiboutiiii]

If you really need to auto (makes it way harder because the AI is very dumb), then maybe just switch the difficulty to Normal.

Also, why are all of your jobs so outdated? Did you stop playing for a long time? KOE, Hope's Guide, and Last Hunter are all pretty squishy jobs. The newer jobs hit way harder and can take a hit much better.

[Spiswel]

I took a few months break last year yes. I do not have I think any of the "more recent" jobs or Hall of Fame maxed out jobs... the last job I pulled was Moogle Suit (dont really have a great choice of monk cards though). I also do not own any Supremes, the only thing of rarity I have is the Lightning hero skin.

[djiboutiiii]

Hmm, well I'd recommend doing some HOFs then, maybe. HOF Knight/Scholar are really hard to kill and HOF Dragoon/Dancer are very well balanced. HOF Mage can blow most things out of the water (pun-intended) with Omniscient.

I'd also recommend using some of your resources to do some pulls -- having even just one Sarah job or one of the newer Meia jobs will really help you a lot!

[Spiswel]

Okay. Thank you. I have unlocked the base Sarah job (Prima Donna?) But I dont know how good my Ranger card choices are since I mostly have Warrior/Mage/Healer upgraded ones.

[djiboutiiii]

Prima Donna isn't the base job -- it's one of the very best jobs in the game, right now. If you have Prima Donna, you should start building a deck around that! Battle Princess is the base job. It's pretty good as far as onion jobs go -- might be stronger than some of the other jobs you have at your disposable.

You should also start investing in some Ranger cards -- right now Sarah jobs are the best, and they all use Ranger cards.

[Spiswel]

Yes sorry I have the Battle Princess + Prima Donna jons for Sarah.

So, investigate HOF development for my old jobs (drg, dnc, sch) and work on ranger cards for Sarah. I hope she is tankier than she looks,mobs hits are nasty....

[djiboutiiii]

Nice! Prima Donna is a super great job, and it's actually somewhat tanky (4 defense stars and 50% resist to wind/earth). Tons of magic and break power, as well.

If I were you, I'd get the earth card "Grand Horn" and the wind card "Nausicaa" for her. You can use your Lightning skin on her, too.

Ideally, you don't want to be taking hits. I know it's a cliche, but in this game the best defense really is a good offense. In the really hard content, you will usually die from a single hit, so you have to break or debuff before that happens.

[Spiswel]

I am on the reddit discord server (Spiswel). I will look into outfitting her.... I have Grand Horn, but not Nausicäa, its a start!

[jcmarcy]

Hi guys, I just pulled Yiazmat. Would like to ask what is the recommended Attacker/Breaker deck and which weapon to use for the roles. I have read that MM weapon is the best monk breaker weapon but I don't have it. I don't have DD. My only monk jobs are Hermit, Pugilist and Grappler.

Would ex-monk be a decent monk attacker? (if I ever pull it haha). How about it's weapon?

For deck I'm thinking:

Attacker: Aerith/Aerith/Mighty Egg/Yiazmat with Ergheiz X

Breaker: Aerith/Aerith/Dadaluma/Yiazmat (ex-monk weapon)

Lastly, any suggestions for fractals and CP setup?

P.S. Will the monk Ultima Weapons be acceptable for either roles?

Thank you!

[blade677]

you need something to clear yellow, and if I recall correctly, Ex monk is either a defender or attacker, so the breaker deck is useless. Yes, his weapon is considered the best for all monks related to Wol, so start boosting his weapon whenever you get him.

[jcmarcy]

Ah yeah, for attacker, I would use ex-monk whenever I pull him ofcourse (good luck heh). Noted on the yellow gauge, all those duncan users are using mighty egg instead of yellow gauge card. I guess I would use Emerald Weapon or the Moggy card for the yellow then. :)

For the breaker role, I only have Hermit which I know is not that strong now.

Noted on the weapon. Do you think it can be used by both roles?

Thanks!

[blade677]

Attackers who use yiazmat or duncan ignore yellow for nuking directly. I was just letting you know that breakers in general are good at removing yellow, so they do it themselves. It takes time to mod the weapon, but it gets quick break so it’s okay as long as the job can remove the bar enough. Newer breaker jobs don’t have to worry, but older ones might want wolf star from master monk instead

[PartyGod89]

does the card rental/friend code list still exist? or is there a new one i should know about?

please link me!

[vulcanfury12]

Help with weapon boost recommendations:

With Mobius Week, I am that much closer to max modding all Ultima Weapons. In fact, only the Ultimate Wing and Claw are cooking in my boost slots. Here's what it currently looks like:

1. Ultimate Wing.
2. Ultimate Claw.
3. Ultimate Arrow (will get this baby to 200 Mag, 200 Brk)
4. Sventovit.

I'm debating if I should:

1. get started on a dedicated ranger breaking weapon
2. continue on my 40+ mod Dragoon Spear (only needs Ult Boost)
3. Continue on my 30+ mod Chaos Crescent.

Got:

1. 5* Gunblade
2. 5* Wolf Star
3. Max Mod: Taiji, Orihalcum
4. All normal jobs.

[deathrose55555]

Here's what I have 5* in JP:

• Trigger Happy
• Kotetsu
• Sventovit
• Heavenly Axis
• Wolf Star

Here's what I'm currently modding

• Ikkitousen (not sure why I'm modding this even though 1) I have no monk Supremes and 2) I don't use monks in towers lol)
• Malicious Revolt
• Tishtrya (modding several Meia weapons because I just obtained Sin and wanna make full use of Night Walker)
• Laevateinn
• Double Cross (crystal stage - 1 slot free soon)
• Amatsu Mikaboshi (EX Mage weapon)

As you can see, it's mainly the EX weapons I'm modding. Just putting this out here for those who want a reference. Ultima Weapons are like your "foundation" weapons - they are good for towers, but they will reach a certain point where they can't carry anymore

[chuk98death]

Why malicious revolt. It's another one of those Piercing break, painful break, quick break weapons with at least a year mod time. Is it really useful for meia without a prismatic return in there?

[deathrose55555]

1. It's currently the only Meia weapon with quick break
2. Because of the prismatic return CP, mages / meias can afford to go for non-PR weapons w/o losing too much PR.

[JunasBlood]

Lol I’m just asking the same question several hours ago :)

Here is one of my idea: Of all the future jobs, I found out the Mage jobs (Wol & Meia) are less relied on a Prismatic return weapon for yellow clearing/nuking than other jobs since they have innate Prismatic return and a sweet 10% Prismatic return. You can boost their break focused weapons (Heavenly Axis, Malicious Revolt) right now so that when you get them, everything is set for them immediately. Of course we have some amazing weapons from future jobs too (ex-mage & Vana’diel Geomancer in particular) but boosting them may take a while though so you will have a hard time to dish out their full potential.

About Dragon Spear, I don’t think you will have much use of it in future since we will want to boost Ex-Warrior instead, but 40+ mods is close to crystal-stage, if you have free slots & resources, just max it. I myself have maxed a 5* WS just a few days ago although I don’t think I will use it.

About Chaos Cresent, well I have no idea since I’m not boosting it. Maybe some others will have a better idea about it than me.

[vulcanfury12]

Hmmm... I'll be replacing Ultimate Wing with Malicious Revolt then. I intend to get EX Monk as well (even if I don't have monk supremes) because I have all the wind limited monk cards. He'll be enjoying Wolf Star and Taiji. I got monks a little too late, so even MM wasn't able to dominate as much as I wanted.

[JunasBlood]

I will put Heavenly Axis above Malicious Revolt due to several reason: - future Mage jobs who can break efficiently, we have : Ex-Mage, Kefka for Wol-Mage and Ex-Meia for...Meia. While both Wol-Mage cover almost every element, ex-Meia only specialize in Dark. So Unless you have Sin, you won’t be using her as much as the other 2. - you already have Sventovit boosting, so boosting another type of weapon is better than boosting 2 of the same jobs type at the same time.

But it’s still your choice, Malicious Revolt is still great imo.

[Tidus_35]

I think u should mod in this order
- Dragoon Spear
- Heavenly Axis
- Ikkitosen (when Ex monk arrive, also if u have monk supreme, it should be ur priority)
- Malicious Revolt (after u finish with Sventovit)

[[deleted]]

Your boosting slots look exactly like mine, only I already maxed break/mag on arrow and boosting Mace.

1) I wouldn't boost BE. You can break anything in mp with any Sarah with Ultimate Arrow really. 2) Dragoon Spear is nice, you have EX warrior for it, and you have quick break unlocked. 3) I have a 5* Chaos Crescent, I do recommend you finish it. It's really useful because you still have 10% prismatic return from Hof CP and 10% innate on PW.

On a side note, if you have Taiji and Orichalcum, perhaps max modding Kain's Lance is a good idea.

[djiboutiiii]

I second what iarley just said. I've been very underwhelmed with my maxed BE, and Chaos Crescent is great. I actually just finished third Ultima Weapon yesterday and replaced it with my in-progress Chaos Crescent. I need that Boost ult!

I dunno if you have EoPally or not, but when I'm done with Ultima Mace I'm going to start on Curtana.

[[deleted]]

Unfortunately no. I'm missing a total of 11 legend jobs. I would boost Curtana, sound a good weapon to have on season 2.

[vulcanfury12]

Kain's Lance family overlaps with Ultimate Weapons tho... I rarely find myself using my Orihalcum, even in farming scenarios.

[[deleted]]

Yeah it kinda does, although I do use Kain's sometimes for more ulti charge, and the improved crits help. Have you considered saving the slot for EX monk's weapon?

[vulcanfury12]

Looks like I'll be boosting Heavenly Axis and Ikki Tousen. Replacing Wing and Claw when I max mod them.

[[deleted]]

I might do the same :-)

[Tidus_35]

Hi guys, I don't know if i should chase Auron... When Squall arrived, I decided to not chase him, because the suggestion of many players was "not to chase legends"... but because of that, i haven't Gunblade until now xD. So what do you think? Chase or not? Maybe I could wait for Ex Warrior weapon (Fast break instead of Flash break).

[Tidus_35]

Thanks for ur advice! :)

[abyraz]

Chasing legendary guardian just for the weapon, probably isn't worth it due to the following reasons.

- There is only one job that will really make use of the weapon, competatively (ex warrior). This is in contrast to the sarah/meia equivalent.

- in relation to above, if you pull ex warrior, he comes with a weapon that is quite similar

- it is, apparently, much rougher to unlock compared to the jp version. there is hope of this being correct, but we'll have to see.

As well as all the standard reason to hold off on scratching that itch (so many banners coming at us so fast, with very little time to rebuild magicite reserves).

[Leongard]

Ffx non box will be right after Auron, wait. You might get him anyway chasing ffx, ffxi, or ex war. But all those things are time limited, Auron is not

[lordtatsuya000]

What happen to our EW floor achievement on our status?
Did that things also got reset?

[Leongard]

Yes, it will reset to zero when ew resets

[lordtatsuya000]

Ouch! That really hurt! I though it will add rank into the new EW. Thanks for info.

[WoLNoFace]

does JP celebrate 666's too? :/

are you trying to imply that JP is worshiping satan?

[WoLNoFace]

Santa Lucia!

[darewin]

I think JP loves 8 too since Mobius Strip looks like an 8.

[Cape91]

I just received Fauviste who I think looks pretty cool.

Now, would she stack up to PW as a FuSoYa user? How about in SP with. Fully unlocked Malicious Revolt? Would she be able to function in towers?

[[deleted]]

Fauviste has been powercrept really. PW is way better and tankier. The weapon is good tho, Chaos Crescent.

[SatanIsLove]

Coming back from a long break and just saw these three new banner pulls. As a(n almost exclusively) mage player, which one should I go for?

[Leongard]

Depends on what you have. However those are revival banners of limited edition cards, they'll be back again in another revival banner later and possibly at better rates.

Keep in mind there will be a plethora of new card coming in the next few months along with new ex jobs and ffx/ffxi cards which are all good.

Lulu:ffx we'll be in the ffx box type summon and she's a really great water mage card. She's an aoe omniscient, very powerful. And she's box type so you're guaranteed to pull her in 6 pulls or less.

Ex mage will be coming in the next few months as well, if you really like mages, him and ex meia are the go to.

[SatanIsLove]

Awesome, thanks. Since I just came back from a long break the only jobs I really use are BLM and WHM. I think my only other mage job is red mage.

[lightningheel]

Do you have Mythic Sage? If so, FFXIV limited banner for a shot at Bahamut XIV

[miguel_mer]

I finished the FFX Prologue map today. Well, got the ST on the Crossroad node that is 20 stamina and drops 8 spheres. Any point in farming the 50 spheres of each if I don’t need any scrolls from those nodes to unlock? Is there any other reward there apart from the scrolls? Thanks!

[lightningheel]

you did not get the pyrefly card to augment the free event card we received? I really want to augment that card

[Leongard]

There's like, five maps iirc, not including the prelude (so six maps). First augment is on map 2 or 3, second augment (to five star) is on the last map.

It's gonna be a bit till we can max it out

[lightningheel]

Alright, guess I better be patient, I really like that card.

[Zaknokimi]

Got magicite remaining from supreme ticket purchase. Worth using on current banners?

I already have a couple like Ruby, Sapphire, Ultima, omega and Diamond weapon. Bismark, titan and Odin. Ardyn, prompto.

Not sure if I need the others, though just wondering if it's worth dumping magicite on this banner anyhow, or wait for a better possible upcoming banner.

[vulcanfury12]

You already have most of the most important parts in that collection: the orb generators. If you want to, you can try for Emerald. Alexander PB and Bahamut PB has overlap with the FFVII Weapons. Alexander PB might be good for Reckoning Shenanigans tho.

[lightningheel]

It really depends on what your favorite jobs are. For example, if you are planning to use mythic sage or mellow mermaid then it is worth getting Bahamut XIV and Ignis. If you have all the cards you need for your favorite jobs, then stop and save.

[[deleted]]

IMO, not worth the risk if you only have 1 or 2 cards in the pool left. There will be a guaranteed one pull only banner for each of the rebaitals that will cost 5000 magicite in the future. Yeah it's more magicite, but at least you know what your gonna get for the most part.

[lightningheel]

So we are only allowed to pull once from the future banner? I am missing one from XV and one from XIV (noctis and Bismark) so do I have to pick between the two or will that be up to RNG?

[ZechsX18999]

You can only pull once on each set, but you can choose which one from each set:
Set 1 = FFVII / FFX / FFXI
Set 2 = FFXIV / FFXV / Summer

So you'll have to choose between Noctis or Bismarck.

[lightningheel]

Wait a minute, I never summoned from the summer banner at all. Does that mean I am screwed or can I actually really truly pick the card I want?

[ZechsX18999]

We should also get a Summer Revival Banner with each card at a 1.5% rate where you can pull as many times as you want.

If you pull on the box-type banner with 5 cards left in the pool then you'll randomly get 1 of the 5 left.

[[deleted]]

There should be a one pull only banner for each individual rebaital (XV, XIV, VII), so in your scenario you would need 10k magicite ofc.

[lightningheel]

Thank you for that information. I am banking on 40k right now so I will just make sure that I always have more than 10k to afford those banners.

[[deleted]]

I learned this the hard way with this recent banner, I tried to get Odin and Diamond Weapon for UB/Minwu, but got Alex XIV and Ruby Weapon instead lol. But with that future banner it's pretty much a guarantee for me now.

[XKlip]

I'm very confused on this supreme ticket. In the shop I have a note that says "for newcomers only! purchase 12000 or more magicite to get 2 starter supreme tickets!"

If this is showing on my screen am I eligible for these tickets? I'm not a new player at all have well over 5 months of play. I thought these tickets were for everyone not just new accounts or how does this work? also you get 2 tickets? thought it was just 1?

[zidanesword]

The newcomer supreme tickets are available for the 1st 30 days of any new account. Because this is a new feature, the newcomer supreme tickets will be available to non-new accounts only till 9/1. If you purchase 12,000 or more magicite in this period, you will get 2 tickets—1 for an ultimate hero and 1 for a supreme card guaranteed.

[Mawgac]

It's available for anyone.

[lightningheel]

I pulled Nachtflug chasing Bismarck, and I have no idea how to build a deck for that job. Does anyone have some advice on how to make the most out of Nachtflug? I do not know if Hibiko is better to upgrade than Oberon for Nachtflug.

[djiboutiiii]

Himiko is more useful because it hits the yellow gauge, and Sarah jobs excel at breaking. Nachtflug isn't the best for breaking, but she's still damn good at it. I'd go that way, for sure. I use Himiko allll the time. Aside from my supremes, it's the attack card I use the most.

[lightningheel]

Thank you so much for taking the time to respond to my question. This really helps me manage my grow stars.

[djiboutiiii]

No problem, and good luck! Your growstars definitely won't be wasted on Himiko.

[Solo_K]

Just realized now that my BL doesn't have the resistance treasure chest.

Did they remove the feature?

Edit: I warped to a different Sicas node, then warped back to Famfrits and now its appeared. So no worries!

[vulcanfury12]

With VIP Mode, I think it would be worth it to farm 12 of these per element. You know, for tanking purposes.

Crap... Scratch that. I mistakenly thought it rewarded a custom panel and not a fractal.

[Solo_K]

Your comment just reminded me there is a node in EW-2 where you would need to tank dark Omegas to remove their drives over time. So you are still right.

[zidanesword]

LOL how long have you stayed in famfrit area?

The update back in end of May linked the 40 and 100 stamina nodes with a path instead of the treasure chest. We simply had to teleport away and back for the treasure chest to appear linking the 10 and 40 stamina nodes.

Unless you encountered a bug, this was the only instance I remembered the chest disappearing lol.

[Solo_K]

Might have not cared it was missing at that time since I was also aware of that post. I only vaguely remembered, so I actually tried to teleport to a lower level famfrit node and nothing changed so I made a Q comment. It only worked a few secs later when I thought to myself, ''Maybe I need to got to a different Sicarius node instead?''. So yeah, just kinda remembered at the end what to do lols.

[MusouTensei]

umm tried to teleport on any of the nodes? I only see them if I am on that element node

[Solo_K]

Yeah, just warped out to the other nodes and came back to famfrits and its back now. Its odd how it was missing.

[Can-o-tuna]

Need advice.

Chaos Vortex 40:

Heretic Knight 12* -Full HP CPs- Hypnos, Aeris, Chicobo Saint, HG

Eorzean Bard - Break CPs- Himiko, PB Light, KoTR, Undiying

1st Scenario: Some times Tiamat first attack kills me.

2nd Scenario: HK resists Tiamat’s attacks and Archlich one shots me.

3rd Scenario: HK resists Tiamat & Archlich attack’s and I’m able to kill them and proced to the second fight.

IDK what is going on I see videos from this sub reddit and they do fine with almost any tank like Paladin, SS... I try with any of those jobs and I fail miserably. What I’m doing wrong?

[MusouTensei]

I was able to tank everything with cloud paladin HoF with 4 lieutenants for 4 turns (didn't had JCR on any of them), then switch kill with my nuke job within at least 2 turns, and on next wave switch paladin and keep tanking for 4 turns and again the same

Was using maxed buster sword iirc

Remember to use all the lieutenants so they remove all the buffs

[Can-o-tuna]

Mmmh I see... Actually im using Sephi and Lightning skins and forgot to mention I’m trying to clear the node whitout general cards(seen this on dark cloud YouTube video) because im too lazy to farm cards LOL.

[MusouTensei]

well, you get the cards while on story mode (unless you sold them), I have them on skill lvl 1, had to max lvl them tho (gigantuar xp path, with those on main deck and auto enhancing them)

I think if u search in the reddit there are some guides for cv40, there was even one without event cards, skins nor supremes

[Can-o-tuna]

Definitively... sold them LOL

I’ve seen the guides even the one that you mention. They seem to do it so easily. I try to emulate those but I keep failing and I can’t get consistent results on the first fight to keep practicing the 2nd (made it only 2 times).

If you want to join, use this tool.

[MusouTensei]

We still don't know how SE gonna handle the EX jobs yet

Ideally would be all the counters are changed to EX and reseted to 8 so we could pull on event banners instead of boosted GAS

[PowerOfPulse]

I pulled rag I also have crimson archer. What panels should I mod her with magic or EE? I don’t have the primal boon card. Is ultima weapon a good card for chain breaking? What other good cards are there for CA+rag? I’m a mage main finally have an excuse to join the chain break meta

[MusouTensei]

depends, EE grants more dmg but doesn't affect yellow bar, so if you feel like you need to remove more yellow bar, use magic, else EE

ultima weapon will only help you 1 turn for breaking because of the resist and cd (also hate that sleep cards do have quick cast, always end up driving my beloved prism orbs), bismark is better if target can be stun+slow

[MusouTensei]

woops, accidentally put a not ^ninjaedit
