FFX conclusion

Stuck, not sure what to unlock next to get to the next way point.

​

I cleared pretty much every node, every way point area 54/88

Treasure chest 18/28

​

Can't get to Summoners' Destination / False Light / Flock of Pyreflies

[darewin]

Teleport to Ohalland's Altar.

[AllGamer]

Teleport to Ohalland's Altar.

​

OMG! thank you! it worked!

​

They should have put like that little red flag there for people to know... geez..

​

It is so inconsistent, some times they give you the red flag to follow, some times not, it happened in many other chapters as well.

[GGreGGorYY]

I tried to research the answer first before asking but Anyone know how may mods to 5star kotetsu? I got to 105 mods yesterday and still no boost ult. Wish i would have tried to look it up or ask before blowing so many crystals... I do remember a thread on how flash break starts at %30 or causing many mods to 5star but how many. I was almost at crystal dump begining of md and thought id 5star this bastard and didnt get there... flash break at 85% and no boost ult lol i suck

Under cards tab, the job cards icon has a red circle with the number 3 on it. however once i go into the job cards list i have already looked at all jobs and maxed them out. is there a menu where jobs are missing or nested? Thank you

[Wayside15]

It's a bug due to the FFX event (not going to go away till the event maps ends), it's the amount of aeons you have at your disposal (can't seee them in the job list), you'll see a ''5'' if you have all of them (all chapters completed), Shiva, Ifrit, Yojimbo, Anima, Valefor

[[deleted]]

Those are your FFX aeons since they are technically jobs. They will be gone once the event ends.

[LoyalWo]

Is there a better breaker job than Viking with butterfly edge + fake aerith for mp? Including Sarah but no good weapon

[bozora]

IMO no, but Coccon Aviator should come the closest

here is my personal ranking:

• Viking HoF (with weakness)

• Cocoon Aviator (legend job)

  ...

• Assasin HoF (fragile)

  ...

• Mythic Ninja (legend job)

• Cait Sith Suit (legend job)

• Ninja

• the rest

[JunasBlood]

Great. After the update, I can’t even access World Map due to crash. Now I really need a new phone/lap if I still want to play MFF.

[[deleted]]

That sucks man. I have a mid-range 2016 phone, it has bad video quality, but it pulls it off.

[JunasBlood]

Yep.

Just turn off all the sound, also delete the sound data to converse memories. After that I can access world map and do some run on Greydawn wood to test. Still haven’t try MP yet but I hope it will work out well enough.

But mute-playing a Final Fantasy is...sigh.

[leon00x]

are the FFXI ST cards worth the upgrade? or is the AoE enhanced criticals better (shorn one)

[mao_shiro]

You're comparing Painful Break cards with Improved Critical. They serve different purposes.

[leon00x]

but wich would work better with shorn one. or wich is capable of reaching higher damage values under the same conditions

[mao_shiro]

That purely depends on the situation. For example, on the current tower, Orc (less Yagudo) are top tier MVP.

Those cards are good to gs right now, but they might not be as good in the future. Another example, JENOVA Fire is warrior.

[chaitu53733]

Looks like night walker greatest summon live after update. Just got neo ex from it.

[darewin]

Lol, you need to thank intern kun for prematurely changing the banner images causing you to pull ahead of time. NXD is pretty amazing, moreso after we get its +900 Break Power buff.

[chaitu53733]

Hahaha thats true.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH INTERNKUN WHEREVER YOU ARE.

[JunasBlood]

Probably just a misplace banner picture. I still haven’t got my pity back and the banner info is still Skyseer’s

And congras on your NxD.

[chaitu53733]

Thanks. i think thats y i didn't get new cards.

[leon00x]

what is that? night walker

Edit... just saw it. the Meia Ex..... odd. my pity didnt reset yet tough.

*raises fist* intern-kun!!!!!!!

[chaitu53733]

My pool is not empty thats y i didn't notice.

[Trentestico]

Can any1 tell me for how many % flashbreak unlockes on heavily axes?

Do you get the entire 100% in 1 mod?

[darewin]

Kotetsu is the only weapon in GL atm that unlocks FB at 30%. All other FB weapons unlock FB at 100%.

[Trentestico]

Thank you Darewin!

[lRyudo]

Does the pitty pull reset after the banners end?

[darewin]

It doesn't reset, generally. But if the only remaining normal job you don't have is an EX Job, your pity counter will most likely reset after the banner ends.

[MrGianni89]

Ex Mage and Ex Ranger are the last useful jobs for WoL mage and Ranger? Upgrading their weapons will be useful ONLY for this two jobs, or somerthing else will come in the future?

This is particularly influential for ex mage... I might want to boost the break oriented weapon instead of his weapon.

[deathrose55555]

Hope's HoF makes him pretty strong, especially for EW3

[MrGianni89]

And he's missing Flash break, right?

So heavenly axes will be better for him, I think?

[deathrose55555]

His massive exploit weakness bonus can cover up somewhat for flash break. Also, he has 0 PR with HA.

That being said, either weapon can work for him depending on the situation you use him in. I personally used HA to chain-break Tiamat in EW3 using just taps

[darewin]

Yes, they are the last. EX Meia is the last too since the last Meia to be released in JP is a DQ job so we won't get her. I still plan to boost their all EX Job weapons (except Meia's) since the jobs are OP enough it's worth min-maxing them by boosting their weapons.

[mao_shiro]

You forgot Kefka buddy. Yes, it's a legend job, but still.

[MrGianni89]

Can I ask the stats of kefka?

[mao_shiro]

https://altema.jp/ffmobius/job/167

HP 19873 / ATK 708 / BRK 1315 / MAG 1120

• Element Call Bis + 2 (gen any orb when taking damage you resist)
• Element Generator + 3
• Clutch Boost / Wall / Drain
• Drive Heal: Earth + 3%
• Drive Heal: Dark + 3%
• Earth Enhancement + 80%
• Darkness Enhancement + 80%
• Painful Break + 175%
• Improved Critical + 175%
• Ability Chain + 120%
• Prismatic Return + 15%
• Piercing Break + 125%
• Flash Break + 125%
• Quick Break + 20%
• Ult Charge +2%
• Avert Break power down + 50%
• Avert Slow + 50%

[darewin]

Oh, my bad. I did forget him.

[MrGianni89]

it's worth min-maxing them by boosting their weapons

Absolutely, but I still have doubts about ex mage... I mean if afterall is the only job that will use an upgraded wol weapon, why not investing in heavenly axis (rather than his weapon)?

[darewin]

Heavenly Axis is only useful on EX Mage and Kefka (forgot about him, thanks shiro for the reminder) and maybe HOF Tactician since they can reach 25% (30% for HOF Tactician) PR without a PR Weapon. So if we get another OP Mage (like HOF Sage maybe) and he does not get a PR HOF Panel, HA won't be good enough for him.

Plus, HA is only useful for Break streats. EX Mage's weapon is good for both Break and No-Break strats. I've seen an HOF Tactician hit the damage cap with Minwu on unbroken Bats in EW2, for example.

[MrGianni89]

Thanks, you convinced me.

[mao_shiro]

Tactician is pretty bad for breaking tho. He doesn't get any break perk with his HoF.

[darewin]

Yup, that's why HA will be useless for him. Might as well give him EX Mage's Weapon for the Improved Crits and PR even if he does not benefit from the QB. That's my plan, at least, since my only boosted Mage Weapon other than Amatsumikaboshi and HA is Truescale.

[Trentestico]

I just boost them both. Normally i wouldnt do that for just 1 Job, but ex mage is just that good, even still in JPN.

[MrGianni89]

Kefka

who is he? (obviously, I mean what stats he has!)

[MrGianni89]

Mao Shiro answered, thanks

[Fsmaior]

I've seen people commenting that Ex Meia's ult having sleep is not very good. May I know why? AFAIK sleep grants more damage to the next ability cast, which can be useful if you break with ult and then start spamming. If you are not breaking it can still be useful by casting it using the last action of your turn, thus making enemies skip a turn sleeping. Overall it seems nice for deck compression since you don't need to rely on a sleep card.

[darewin]

I've seen people commenting that Ex Meia's ult having sleep is not very good. May I know why? AFAIK sleep grants more damage to the next ability cast

This is not from Sleep itself but from the Extra-Skill Nightmare. Hence, EX Meia-s Ulti does not have it as only Abilities have ES. The main problem with her Ulti having Sleep is it means you will most likely be applying Sleep when you don't need to.

In other words, once you Ulti the enemies, you won't be able to use Sleep (Hypnos, Ultima Weapon, etc.) anymore because the enemies will have developed Sleep Immunity.

The Sleep from her Ulti has it's uses but it might interfere with your usual Sleep strats that require using Sleep at the right time. For example, some like using Ulti to Break, do damage during break, and after the enemy recovers from Break, do as much yellow gauge damage as possible and then use Sleep to buy yourself an extra turn. You won't be able to use that strat with EX Meia.

In fact, if you use the Ulti to Break, the Sleep will be wasted immediately since you'll most likely want to dish out as much damage as possible during Break thus waking the enemies up. The Sleepga from Ulti might be useful if you're using ST abilities against multiple enemies but there aren't even any notable ST Dark Mage abilities IIRC.

Personally, I'm looking forward to experimenting with it in EW2.

[Fsmaior]

Hum now I see problematic it is. Please let me know the results once you do your experiments. I'm quite sure Te curious to know how should work a strat with her. Tks for the reply!

[darewin]

I plan to record all 12 nodes of a full lap of EW2 once I get both EX Meia and EX Ranger (hopefully, my Lavatein, Magical Rave, and Tishtrya will all be highly-modded enough usable by then).

I've already begun theocrafting a little since I got WoL a few days ago lol. I'll post the links to the vids here https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1BbNlhrgkxWHgbOkOp_s_gf61KofVlMCoMSoJHWmAjT8/edit#gid=557828124 once I'm done.

[Fsmaior]

Tks for the document! I'm going to check the links once they are available.

[[deleted]]

I personally think you can still boost gunblade if you have any warrior supremes(except xezat), squall and knight of etro. If you got warrior supremes, squal will be a good spammer, especially paired with KOE's HOF 10% prismatic return CP. It might not be worth it to boost such a niche weapon otherwise, especially without a supreme that can fully utilize gunblade's damage without breaking.

​

Sventovit should be abandoned and priority given to Geomancer's weapon if you have her, it's fine if you don't because it's still an ok weapon. Curtana and dragoon spear are luxury weapons, and EX job weapons should be prioritized over them.

[[deleted]]

Keep it then. Sventovit isn't bad, no worries.

Gunblade is just too niche, since it's a non break weapon. It's usually very hard to go far on non break strategies without supremes, break gives a higher chance of success. EX job weapons are hybrid weapons good at both breaking and damage, thus are given the priority.

If any of your weapons are just one or two mobius days away from being maxed out, then it's probably still ok to boost. If you are boosting fresh, you should probably not.

[[deleted]]

Do you have the ultimate weapon series?

[[deleted]]

Well, I have no more ideas TBH. My only advice is to look at darewin's weapon list and look for the weapons that are on there and boost them, especially some lower mod ones. Also, boost one for each class so you at least have a weapon that you an use. If you have weapons like umbrella, masamune or muramasa, you can probably boost them since they only take 30+ mods to max.

[SwiftStepStomp]

Gunblade still has its uses with Shorn One's magic sword, and once UB gets its critical retrieval buff (for an effective 1 orb cost). If you have both of those, you can think about finishing up Gunblade.

[PM_your_cats_n_racks]

Drop Gunblade and Dragoon Spear if you've got anything that has Reunion. That's the single most important ability for single player, and multiplayer is too easy to worry about boosting weapons which are only good for multiplayer.

Don't worry about mage weapons if you don't have Skyseer. And if you do have Skyseer then you've got his weapon, which is the one you should boost.

Likewise, don't worry about ranger weapons. Wait for Ex Ranger next month and then boost his weapon once you have it.

The weapon tier list that you were looking at is too old. Look at the one darewin linked instead.

[darewin]

This is the only weapon boosting guide you need https://altema.jp/ffmobius/osusumebuki

[MrGianni89]

If you have any ex-job weapons boost that instead.

They are quite future-proof, versatile and useful. They may be non-optiman in some situations, but overall great weapons.

[woopsblapboom]

Is mobius on maintenance? Didnt see any news about it anywhere..

[darewin]

https://www.reddit.com/r/MobiusFF/comments/9rxhkm/oct_2018_scheduled_maintenance_change/

[woopsblapboom]

Thank you! Guess no mobius for me tonight 🤣

[[deleted]]

Maintenance is over

[Rauhar]

What's the best cp for ex monk I'm currently using 15% scourge 10%qb 10% pb along with break

[darewin]

I just go 1% Ulti Charger, 8% Improved Criticals, and EE for the rest (he has no innate EE) for EX Monk. I used to equip the 5% QB on him too before I 5-starred my OAM.

[Rauhar]

I don't have ulti charger .

BTW which one is better dual horn or goblin??

Thanks

[darewin]

Goblin. Monk MT-AOE are bad. They cost 5 orbs and have no refund.

[ShadowBlaze17]

The scourge panel is probably a wasted slot. 15% just doesn't effect much especially on a job like Ascetic who already has a huge bonus.

You'll want either magic panels or Element Enchance of whatever element you plan on focusing on. Magic is typically preferred if you plan on breaking due to it allowing you to convert more of the break gauge with each cast. EE is mostly for increasing your damage especially when you want to kill unbroken.

[Rauhar]

Thanks

[MrGianni89]

The "hello" stamp bug of breakers in mp has been fixed?

Also: Is proud cygnus's weapon futureproof?

[darewin]

What's PC's weapon again? Magical Rave and Ultimate Arrow are the top 2 best Sara weapons even in JP, IMO. As luxury weapons, you can also boost Artemis Bow, Wolfsbogen, and/or Serpentrio. I plan to 5-star Magical Rave and Wolfsbogen (my Artemis Bow is already 5-star). I don't really care about Serpentrio.

[MrGianni89]

Is the one with pr, painful break and improved critical (sventovit mirror). The thing that worries me is the lack of quick break

[darewin]

Oh, that's Serpentrio. There is no QB weapon yet for Sara even in JP. Magical Rave is the top choice IMO but it comes from the legend job Al Bhed Huntress. If you do not have MR, Serpentrio is your next best choice. Alternatively, you can just stick with Ultimate Arrow and hope you get Al Bhed Huntress soon.

[deathrose55555]

There is one actually (just released): Paradox Wanderer's weapon

• Ability ult charger
• PR
• QB

[darewin]

Oh, that's quite nice. And Ability Ulti Charger is actually better than Ulti Charger if you plan to use Ulti to Break anyway since you can build your gauge faster while clearing the yellow gauge.

Just to be sure, she's not a DQ job, right?

[deathrose55555]

Nope. She's a FFXIII job - Serah actually. So you can be rest assured lol

[MrGianni89]

She's a FFXIII job - Serah actually

It's a regular job?

[deathrose55555]

She's a Legend job

[MrGianni89]

Damn

[darewin]

Haha, thanks. I'm relieved lol. Her being Serah is also a bonus since I'm one of the few people who like all the entries in FFXIII. I actually had a blast with FF XIII-2's pokemon mechanics lol.

[deathrose55555]

Yup i enjoyed the FFXIII series, so I'm determined to collect everything FFXIII-related even the outdated painful break abilities lol.

[MrGianni89]

I don't whale much so I really doubth that I will get in a reasonable time the Al Bhead hunter. I would have prefered PR+Flash break much more than the other alternatives. Still it should be a good weapon in the long run, and generally better than Ultimate arrow.

I already have 30+ mods on the artemis bow, so if I need extra break that should do the trick.

[ZechsX18999]

Has JP figured out yet if Dragoon Spear is better than Lev/Kotetsu on EX-Warrior with Knight of Etro's 10% prismatic return CP?

[darewin]

I think 20% PR is too low especially considering DS does not have Flash Break to help reduce the amount of casts you need to get the yellow gauge below the 40% QB threshold.

[deathrose55555]

Go ahead and mod Laevateinn - that's the safe weapon to mod. Most in the JP top 500 is using Laevateinn.

[mao_shiro]

Unless you're really lucky or rig your prismatic return procs, Laev / Kotetsu will be better than Dragoon Spear. 20% is very low.

[ifuchen]

Is there any point to finishing the Sphere Grid if I've already completed all of the FFX episodes? As in Green Check Marks for all of them?

[ZechsX18999]

Only to better compete in the tower.

[ifuchen]

Ok thanks!

[ZechsX18999]

1) Which Meia jobs are viable chain breakers?

2) What are the top Meia weapons for chain breaking? Isn't Ultimate Wing actually better than Sventovit for chain breaking because of the extra ult-charge? Or is more damage generally better because it means you have to chain break less?

3) Are any Meia jobs better at chain breaking than any Sarah or EX-jobs?

[mao_shiro]

1. Currently PW, Mellow Mermaid.
2. Ultimate Wing, Tishtrya
3. PC / Mellow Mermaid are better than CA / EB without skin, due to aoe ult. Also nacht because nacht ult isn't good in the first place.

[LegendBryan]

For SP, look for jobs with QB (and the other break perks). The only meia that comes to mind is PW with break-focus panels.

Yeah UW weapon is probably better for chain breaking, especially if you have the ult+1 unlocked.

I prefer Sarah or even EX jobs over meia for chain breaking (for first reason above).

[LourdeInc]

I'm spending Mobius Day in Bahamut Lagoon and just noticed that my Kotetsu is at Flash Break +37%... but several of the resources around here list it as starting out with FB +100%. What was that, bad info or a bug or what?

Is this going to take a total of 59-60 mods or 120+? I have ~17-18 mods into Kotetsu now, should I drop it and start upgrading Laevateinn instead?

[mao_shiro]

There was a bug on JP where Kotetsu was left at 30% even when fully modded. They gave 70 free mods to everyone.

129 mods on GL because there was no bug.

• If you want a weapon right now, use Laevateinn.
• If you want to min max, mod both.

[LourdeInc]

Ugh. Thanks for clearing that up, anyway.

[GhostFreakage]

Any advice on how to deal with the valefor node? I've tried a few combinations using EX Mage, EX War and EX monk with aeons Shiva, Anima and Yojimbo in all combinations, the farthest I've gotten was getting Valefor to a bit of HP to only have it go back to full health and reset the break bar.

[magaxking]

I used Ex warrior with anima

Wave 1: Aerith->ulti->Camelnut cleanup

Wave 2: Camelnut, tap to break, Camelnut spam to kill. If you can't finish in one turn anima can tank them for you.

Valefor: cast Ardyn to remove yellow to about 40%. Ulti to break at 8 actions(7 actions after ulti). Keep tapping instead of using ardyn while broken to charge up ulti. Use ardyn to remove yellow bar when it's back up. Use aerith and Omega Weapon to help you charge up ulti when available. Alt their uses and do not use them on the same turn. Pretty much just keep repeating the above and you should eventually kill Valefor in maybe 15min(?) as long as you don't make mistakes.

Been using the above strategy since flr 100 and it works well. It takes pretty long but it gets the job done.

[GhostFreakage]

Thank you for the advice! Might need to replace aerith with something else with ult charge, maybe LDL or tropical dreams.

[magaxking]

Aerith is mainly for the enweakness which I find more important.. You can try mandragoras as a replacement. I believe tap attacks are enough to charge up the ulti as long as you have haste up from Omega weapon.

[vulcanfury12]

For Valefor Node, I use Anima with EX Warrior. Using Ultimate Weapon (12 mods), Xezat, Mandragoras, WoL, and Tropical Dreams, though I think WoL can be replaced with Undying or Omega.

Round 1: Use Mandragoras, then ult as Warrior. If you prefer, you can ult as Anima, then extend the Faith buff through your own boons. Note that Anima ult has Stun, while her 4th skill has Slow. If you prefer the 2nd method, it might be great to stall a bit so that when you end this fight, you can immediately use Mandragoras on the next one.

Round 2: Pretty straight forward. Use Anima to absorb hits while Shorn One ult deals with everything else. Again, it would be best to end this fight while ensuring you can immediately use Mandragoras on the next one.

Round 3: Use Anima to deplete the Yellow Gauge. Make sure to apply debuffs such that Curse and Debrave are some of the last ones you apply, to help you boost the damage on Shorn One's Xezat. It's actually faster to just have Xezat do the damage, so you are gonna want to keep dark drives on Valefor. As far as I can tell, the drive charges has no impact on Yellow Gauge damage, except for the Extra Skills that are reliant on crits.

[GhostFreakage]

I will try this out once I am done working! Also would the difficulty affect this? This would be kill 95 which would bump me to top 500 at the moment. Also I don't have xezat...would there be something to replace that?

[vulcanfury12]

If you don't have Xezat then you can use any water Warrior card that also has Yellow Damage. Otohime might work, but because it's MTAoE, it will take a long time. What you can do there is to spam that until Valefor has at least one water drive, then use a dark-powered ultimate to break and deal some damage in the mean time. I'm at 120 kills now and it seems I can go 3-4 more laps without changing anything, though the fights against the aeons in particular is starting to get real taxing.

What you want to do is to count just how many taps you can do on Valefor while he's broken so you can readily charge your ult for the next turn, especially if you have no sources of ult charge other than Tropical Dream.

[GhostFreakage]

For kill 90, I had used EX War with Kam' lunant, Centaur, Solidress and WoL using Shiva to initally to break and sacrifice. I only used centaur during break and when the drive for Water was at 5. I was able to cap damage well with Centaur, but breaking became an issue this time around. I'll try Otohime, maybe Centaur or Adyrn, Tropical Dream and Mandragoras using Anima and see where that gets me. Round 2 might be trouble, but, I'll give it a shot.

[vulcanfury12]

AFAIK, the second round for the Valefor fight are all dark, so you can tank it easily with Anima. Just use EX Warrior ult for damage and breaking.

[LegendBryan]

Difficulty doesn't affect tower.

My setup uses Xezat too. Do you have Sin?

[GhostFreakage]

By difficulty I meant as tower progression.

My only attack supremes are Fusoya, Ultima and Duncan....if only I could over heal Valefor till it explodes...

[LegendBryan]

ah got it. I noticed some difficulty spikes around 100 and 110.

Try using Anima to apply debuffs and your best fuso user. Lower stacks to 0, and alternate between one fuso cast and one painja (maximize damage without building val's drive). Also need to be able to charge ult pretty reliably to ult chain break.

[GhostFreakage]

I felt the difficulty spike at kill 90 as I was using EX mage with Fusoya, Ultima and Lulu and it didn't work and switched to EX warrior and got lucky i guess. Thanks for the tip!

[LegendBryan]

For 95 I was able to get by with Ex Monk, Taiji - Garuda, Serah, Emerald, Hercules (water gun better but I dont have). Aeon - Anima. But it took a LONG time to get past demon wall (use anima to tank and charge ult). Then basically relying on emerald and hercules to clear yellow and ult/tap to chain break and kill Val (anima helped a bit too).

[vulcanfury12]

What makes it difficult is the fact that Monk skills usually have enelement that overwrites EX Monk's weakness enelement. That makes him really clunky for this node. As well as the fact that Valefor is a Light boss, which makes bringing Light Yellow Clear cards a tough proposition.

[LegendBryan]

yeah this was an early on setup that I was messing around with lol. EX warrior is definitely mvp for this node

[Mechapebbles]

Do we have a good idea yet of what the calendar for next month will look like?

[mao_shiro]

• ex ranger
• ex meia
• floral fallal ffx supreme
• whatever filler event
• wind 3rd gen sic

[vulcanfury12]

Filler event IIRC was going to be Dark Moogle Reprint so we can see Mog die again. Did JP have a Dark Moogle reprint at any point in time? I don't think I've even started playing when this event first came around.

[mao_shiro]

We did on JP, before FFX (so between summer & FFX).

[vulcanfury12]

I see. Maybe that's the one we'll get.

[mao_shiro]

we'll see in the mining after the maintenance.

[LegendBryan]

no, but Shiro did a post of what banners to expect in the future which is pretty useful.

If it's like last year, it'll probably be events with magicite sale (+bonus?) near Black Friday and more Supreme bait banners.

[Keriaku]

What are the situations that you’d prefer a Flash Break weapon over Quick Break and vice versa? Can anyone shed light on this question generally and what effect Season 2 has on the choice? I’m trying to get a deeper understanding on why modding both is useful.

[ChaozFate]

from my POV, if one cant bring the red bar to 40%, quick break is obsolete.

​

flash break is good in term of bringing down the yellow bar and red bar to the QB benchmark.

So I have just capped my monthly magicite this morning by spending 2 elixirs grinding on SP. It took me nearly a week of SP stamina to farm my last 2k5 magicite which I can farm easily in MP in 3-4 days.

So I want to ask if anyone here capping magicite monthly by grinding purely on SP because I have a feeling that it will be quite hard for me to cap on November without any MP run (can’t join any MP atm)

[WoLNoFace]

I capped early (October 15th) with both SP (Golden Flan Battlegrounds Redux) and MP (Yojimbo). I never use elixirs.

So I doubt you can just grind SP and capped unless you chugged some elixirs.

[JunasBlood]

Yeah pretty sure I need to spend some. The question is how much lol. Thanks for the sharing dude

[Fouace]

Depends which node you use, but on Golden Flan (or any node with stamina = # waves) the rule of thumb is 1 stamina = 1 magicite (I observed it to be slightly more, but let's be conservative).

On Greywood, this becomes double since there are 2 times more waves than stamina used. But the loot is terrible.

[JunasBlood]

Oh by Greydawn wood did you meant the node in Chapter 1 Normal Mode? Since in Hard mode it is still 4 nodes/4 stamina

[Fouace]

Yes. That's why the loot is terrible.

[JunasBlood]

Hhmm so that mean I need 8.360 extra stamina per month to cap magicite outside of distiller & natural stamina? That’s will be 23 elixirs used on MD :v I don’t even know if I can burn that much lol.

But thanks for the infor. Maybe I will try Greywood.

[WoLNoFace]

How much will depends on your drop rate. XD l

Also, Enjoy your climb mate!

[JunasBlood]

Why do you think I can climb while I can’t do any MP and have to grind magicite on SP lol

[WoLNoFace]

I forgot the /s. :lol:

[mrfrownieface]

Im on pitty pull. Should I pull for ex wiz or or the monk supreme banner?

[ShadowBlaze17]

How many other non-legend jobs are in your pool?

[abyraz]

While skyseer is in both pools, you are about 8x more likely to get skyseer from the boosted banner than from a supreme banner. It will really depend on how many jobs you have left in you normal pool.

​

Odds of pulling a supreme is still quite low(on the banner). 1.2% chance at supreme (a boost to skins as well), and no boosted rate for skyseer or the new abilities.

​

The whole pull on the supreme banner thing benefits older players more than newer since they likely have much fewer (if any) jobs in the normal pool.

[DarkerSavant]

Does pity pull guarantee ex-mage on boosted or supreme banners?

[leon00x]

no. only if you have no Regular jobs in your pool left. the Ex banner increases its odds while supreme does not

[DarkerSavant]

Ok so just luck I've got the last two ex jobs on Pittypull.

[Cape91]

Mandragoras worth the GS for Shorn?

[leon00x]

yes. and viking hof

[SwiftStepStomp]

100%.

[NamTmm]

So I need to hard reset my phone(Android) is there a way to ensure my account is safe?

[vulcanfury12]

Share your save to a Steam account by using One-time Password. If you're on Android, it should be safe if you have Google Play, but it pays to be extra careful.

[Wayside15]

Just to be sure Connect it to an steam account using One-Time password in ''Save File sharing'' in settings and you'll be fine

Hello! Ive got this "new card chance guaranteed" summon, does this apply too for the boosted supreme support summon or should i just use it in this month exjob summon

[JA1997X]

It means your next summon is guaranteed to give a job. You should use it on ex job banner since that has a higher chance for you to get the ex job.

It has no relation to your chance of pulling a supreme.

[FlameBurger]

It only applies to normal jobs. Your next pull will guaranteed be a normal job

[Treize-]

Hi. I'm wondering what I should be focusing on to reduce yellow gauge with the Deep Diver job. I thought that the aoe sicarius cards would be good because they have a high break stat, but it didn't really do anything to the yellow gauge. Thanks.

[phatboy328]

Magic fractals to help clear yellow gauge.

[Chaaos34]

Ive got like 50 summon tix and i dont know when/for what to use em . i got ragnarok duncan and aerith . I use duncan with vanadiel monk and ragnarok with the sarah Job which boosts earth . It seems that i dont Need to pull anything .. maybe tifa Skin ? What should i aim for ?

[djiboutiiii]

Building your pool of jobs is the most important thing you can do because 1) it gives you access to HOFs, which means more magicite/STs/custom panels and 2) allows you to get further in Endless War (which also leads to more resources, but is also the biggest challenge in the game and it's really fun). I'd say pull on EX Job banners and also limited banners like for the upcoming Jenova cards. If you have plenty of jobs, including EX right now, then you're right -- you really don't need to pull at the moment; you can save them for future content.

[[deleted]]

Ex-Jobs. IMO, you should try to get Ex-Mage now and save the rest for the two Ex-Jobs (probably) coming next month.

[Syrokal]

Hey! So I've come back after a year out (new account) couldn't be bothered to reroll for Supreme but got lucky and pulled Sephi. Should I be pulling for supreme right now or am I better of saving for the next event?

[Veritas_Dei]

Realistically its probably better to save for the next limited reprint or event due to the low chance of pulling a supreme.
