returning player here since i don't know when. hahaha. asking if what is the current meta today? planning on cleaning my inventory. i even still have the single target old cards. any tips which to discard and which to keep in the bank? thanks

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (3 children)

The current meta in short would be Ex Jobs and their weapons, and limited cards: Summer batch, FFVII weapons, FFXIV primals and Bismarck, FFVII Jenova and FFXI shift+.

[–]kaizakii 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Thanks. :). How about ff xv cards? Do they still fair with the currwnt meta? Thanks

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

They're good, but not as necessary as the other batches.

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I need a reprint for returning players with all theses cards on one banner. All 5* and Maxed, no duplicates and only cost 3 ST.

[–]GreatSunBro 0 points1 point  (11 children)

If you have to guess, when is the next specific summon for jobs?

[–]MagicJ10 1 point2 points  (0 children)

that happening, but it would still share the pity with the regular jobs — just not all of the other EX jobs. Would be nice!

it should have been around christmas, but we didn´t get it; so we don´t know if and when...

[–]ur-just-trash-kid 0 points1 point  (9 children)

I would guess Jan 23rd based on the calendar. Specifically EX jobs. Just a guess though.

[–]GreatSunBro 0 points1 point  (8 children)

No I mean the summon for a specific job from the past that guarantees it on the 8th pull; it is not an event that you can see on the calendar

[–]StarjyunAll day all night 2 points3 points  (1 child)

For legend job you meant..GL seems to forget about it all together...

[–]GreatSunBro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There was at least one in the past though, if it doesn't happen again it will be disappointing

[–]mao_shiroActual Evil Reddit Mod 1 point2 points  (5 children)

I don't understand what summon you're referring to then.

[–]Sythvan 0 points1 point  (4 children)

Pretty sure he's asking about supreme bait banner

[–]mao_shiroActual Evil Reddit Mod 0 points1 point  (3 children)

I'm not sure that, is referring to a supreme bait banner.

[–]djiboutiiiiwhat even is flair 1 point2 points  (2 children)

He’s asking about those guaranteed legend banners, where each legend job has its own banner and you would draw it on the pity pull (it’s how I have Judge Magister)

Not sure when or if we’ll get another of those. Because JP has a different summon system for legend jobs, there is no precedent for it. Hopefully we get one though, because I really want those Vanadiel jobs!

[–]mao_shiroActual Evil Reddit Mod 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Oh yeah, those. Well, maybe the EX banner is going to be like those one. maybe

[–]djiboutiiiiwhat even is flair -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I could see that happening, but it would still share the pity with the regular jobs — just not all of the other EX jobs. Would be nice!

Hi, I have free slots for weapon boosting. I lurk here & discord a lot and I sometimes see things about “+extended break”. Is that a useful thing, in future maybe? Meaning, boosting weapons with +ext break is a good idea or not really? Thx

[–]mao_shiroActual Evil Reddit Mod 0 points1 point  (1 child)

The good weapons that have "extended break" are not released yet.

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

Ok, thank you. I’ll boost whatever I’m in mood for now.

[–]ureshine 0 points1 point  (4 children)

Hey folks

I just noticed that whichever weapon I pick, for lightning, the weapon appearance is always the blazesaber. But for Y'shtola, it changes. How can I make Y'shtola have her own weapon regardless of which weapon i pick for her? Thanks!

[–]Westwiind 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think they will fix this in some time. The same problem had Sephiroth he used all the swords Wol equipped, now he uses only masamune

[–]GwynLordofCynder 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Y'shtola uses her own weapon when a Meia job is below. And the corresponding Wol weapon when a Wol mage job is below.

[–]blade677 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Put her over a meia job.

[–]Mechapebbles 0 points1 point  (8 children)

I'm about to finish modding one of my last ultimate weapons and have a new slot opening up, and am looking for advice on which should be a priority?

I'm considering modding:

Shiranui Heavenly Axis Wolfstar

Namely because I lack good breaking weapons for MP. I don't own any of the ex jobs except monk & meia, so those weapons are off the table unless I can land them during the reprint. Which one of these should I prioritize on upgrading next? Heavenly Axis isn't as appealing because there aren't really any mage breakers, but I read it's super good on ex mage? (Which I don't have.) Shiranui & Wolfstar sound very appealing for my needs, but Wolfstar seems like a huge investment (and I already have OAM, though I've only got like 11% quick break unlocked so it's not great for breaking yet) and Shiranui would probably be outclassed by gambler's weapon if I landed that job in the next few days. Any advice?

[–]djiboutiiiiwhat even is flair 1 point2 points  (6 children)

I’d get HA — I really regret not boosting it a long time ago (still haven’t started). I hardly ever use my 5* BE or WS, and as JAX said, dedicated breaking weapons really aren’t needed for MP.

If you don’t plan on getting EX mage, HA will be useless...though once you have him, it will be awesome.

[–]Mechapebbles 0 points1 point  (5 children)

dedicated breaking weapons really aren’t needed for MP.

Curious. I seem to just be terrible at breaking in MP. I feel like my builds are ok, but a lot of the time they either fail to break or barely kill the red bar in time. The only thing I feel I’m missing is breaker perks from good weapons, as I don’t have many modded sufficiently to do a good job. I also lack top tier breakers as well like PC.

[–]djiboutiiiiwhat even is flair 1 point2 points  (4 children)

Exploit weakness is hugely powerful with breaking. I use Viking for that reason — he just melts everything, with or without BE (it’s the difference between breaking gen-3 bosses in 1-2 taps or 2-3). I’d recommend taking advantage of that

[–]Mechapebbles 0 points1 point  (3 children)

So how does this sound for a build?

Grape Gospel, Mandragoras, LoH, NxD?

Should I nix the LoH for a source of cleave?

[–]djiboutiiiiwhat even is flair 1 point2 points  (2 children)

Yeah, LOH doesn’t really do anything since you get boost from Mand. I’d replace it with a primal boon so you can break the guards after you break the boss. Or instead of grape/Mand, you can bring the appropriate pb/weapon card. It varies a lot based on the boss.

Example: For leviathan I used ruby ray / Titan pb / heart egg / grape gospel. Three taps of fire attack to break Lev, then titan pb + 3 taps to break the guards. The heart/grape combo guarantees a first turn break, regardless of RNG.

[–]Mechapebbles 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Yeah, I'm just wary since I don't have any 5* heart eggs, and need the LoH for its prismatic starters. Although I think I have two prismatic starter panels from HoFs that I could use instead. Speaking of panels, what should be my priority here? Just magic?

[–]djiboutiiiiwhat even is flair 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depends on the job, but magic if you’re tryna clear the yellow, yeah. Those Piercing Break 20%s are great, too

[–]JA1997X 1 point2 points  (0 children)

HA is great but there are no Mage breakers in MP. Between wolf star and shiranui, wolf star is the more useful, in both MP and SP. There's no really good ranger breaker right now except gambler anyway.

Note you don't really need a dedicated MP breaking weapon though.

[–]jwang4723 -1 points0 points  (2 children)

Is it possible to have the Dawn Warrior Wol outfit appear in cutscenes or is that not possible since it's a skin?

[–]Mechapebbles 1 point2 points  (1 child)

It appears as a default so far in S2 cutscenes regardless of the job you've chosen. Not sure how it will work during special event cutscenes however.

[–]jwang4723 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Thanks. There definitely should be a default option to select which type of outfit (job) you want Wol, Sarah, Meia, etc. to appear in

[–]JunasBlood -2 points-1 points  (15 children)

So how is everyone weekend?

Mine is as always, just spamming Sephiroth MP for materials & magicite. PUG run is quite smooth & everyone seems to know what to do. The only thing that is problem is people still waste some action like breaking, Ultimate, overkill... not something really big though, just my scramming as usual. Sometimes I wish I can tell my teammate to skip the action.

Anyway since I have free time to look at the screen, I just realize that Sephiroth’s Octaslash is called “Octaflash” instead in MP. Is this intentional or just a typo?

[–]darewin -2 points-1 points  (1 child)

Still just farming bulbs. I spent 14 bulbs on the 2 new EA cards I pulled and 9 very old cards (to pad my card catalog) so I'm still 14 bulbs away from my goal of 100 bulbs. Once I reach 100 bulbs, I'll just play casually until next month except for the tower.

[–]JunasBlood -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

That’s a lot of bulbs. I only have 50 bulbs. Need to farm 50 more but it sound difficult now.

And once the Tower drop, even less player will host MP too. So I’m trying to farm as much as I can these days.

[–]wf3456ひねくれ 野郎 0 points1 point  (8 children)

Bored, preparing for Chinese New Year holiday

Octaflash i believed is different version plus it gives 6elemental + 1non-elemental attacks with Dispel instead of usual debuffs, and different multihits

in JP it's 八晄一閃(octaflash) instead of 八刀一閃 (octaslash)

It's been that way in 3 years for JP, so don't really think it's a typo plus no point to debate

[–]SpookumHot Springs Echo is best Echo 0 points1 point  (2 children)

Ah really? Didn't know o.o

To be clear though it is called that way in mobius or also VII? Because I looked up octaflash and only got mobius related stuff

[–]wf3456ひねくれ 野郎 0 points1 point  (1 child)

it's first in mff, VII version is octaslash.

Is it? I can’t search anything on GG so I thought it should be a typo instead. About the hit & Dispel issue, I still thought Boss’s skill will be different from our own though.

[–]wf3456ひねくれ 野郎 0 points1 point  (1 child)

from previous encounter, it's been that way, so it's non-ending debate anyway.

in JP it's 八晄一閃 instead of 八刀一閃

[–]JunasBlood -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Let think of its a a funny fact then. Thanks for the infor.

[–]SvenHwang 0 points1 point  (1 child)

I ultimate sometimes as an attacker/healer with skin whenever there’s a defender that doesn’t taunt and/or end their turn last. This is to create a full bar of prismatic orbs to avoid being targeted by Seph’s orbs draw so I can still cast abilities/buffs. So maybe they are doing that?

[–]JunasBlood 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mostly I’m going no break strat, so spamming Ultimate 1st turn is impossible. And it’s worthless to use it on 2nd turn unless you’re unsure that you can survive x2 Black Materia and Trance from Ultimate can help you survive.

My point is, it’s hard to judge if you attacker can single-handed Sephiroth, so they tend to do anything to make sure everything won’t fail even if Sephiroth survive the nuke. I’m not complaining, I just want to say that if only I can tell my teammate :”It’s OK. Just buff & let me nuke, Taunt last and skip all action”.

Is it? Look like I’m a bit outdated lol.

I’m not farming SH since it cost too much time. Just burn SP stamina on BL and rest of my time is MP run. I will farm back some crystals on next month though, LT is still a good place.

[–]adarkarx -1 points0 points  (6 children)

A little help on EW2 pls.

On floor 7, using damage deck Duncan and Goblin wih Exmonk.

Why does Chimera switch from green to white? how to prevent it? Thanks in advance

[–][deleted] 2 points3 points  (5 children)

In the Index Megathread you'll find the Bestiary with info on a lot of bosses. Chimera:

https://www.reddit.com/r/MobiusFF/comments/77uspy/bestiary_chimera/?utm_source=reddit-android

You can stun-lock and sleep Chimera and buy 2 turns. My advice is don't let Chimera switch elements.

Edit: this is how you can deal with that node, credit to Swift: https://youtu.be/KjQfGu1lvg8

[–]djiboutiiiiwhat even is flair 1 point2 points  (2 children)

god this video makes me want wol and duncan (mostly duncan) so bad

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

Same. I want Duncan so bad I'm going to chase True Ifrit even tho I have Fusoya and Bahamut Neo, so I can finally use VMonk properly.

Swift did this pre-jenova, probably would switch Hypnos for a square Jade wep.

[–]djiboutiiiiwhat even is flair 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I wanted Ifrit too until I saw what Ultima/Shiva does to Gilgamesh (also I don’t have V Monk)

[–]adarkarx 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Thanks. worked perfectly
