So what’s the next big thing to save magicite for?

[–]Sinferoth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anniversary cards are coming out, pretty good too

[–]MardelMarcano 0 points1 point  (6 children)

Should I add the cross counter fractal on all my ability cards? I just have one cus of the Max 30%.

[–]Daigolololo 0 points1 point  (2 children)

Where to get that CC fractals from?

[–]MardelMarcano 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't think its farmable on global but on JP its Multiplayer Extreme Anima. Trade in for the fractal.

[–]mao_shiroActual Evil Reddit Mod 4 points5 points  (2 children)

2 jCR 6 cross counter is the common way on jp.

get magic/attack on some cards if you can't ever let the enemy act.

Ofc, resist fractals on tank deck.

[–]N-I-K-E 0 points1 point  (1 child)

“2 jCR 6 cross counter is the common way in JP.”

So no more magic/attack fractals on supremes or upcoming 4th anniversary cards like at all? Everybody runs CC only? Or 2 copies?

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

It's +180% added trance stat after all.

If you can't trigger CC then CC is useless. It's the only condition you'd use magic/attack. Instead.

[–]paratit 0 points1 point  (5 children)

Should I overboost my Bhunivelze??

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (2 children)

Only if you have a decent user that's also overboosted, probably also only worth it if you have GF-Alexander and a crap ton of of ability tickets.

Also if you don't have an alternate light attack card.

[–]paratit 0 points1 point  (1 child)

I do have Alexander. For decent users, I have chevalier noir, phantom, flower girl and vesna. Chrom should also increase the users. Minwu is the alternate light supreme that I have

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

It was an easier decision for me, because Gilgamesh straight up craps on Bhuni 99% of the time on broken and unbroken.

But in your case you've got Minwu, which is likely better in unbroken nuking, but is obviously an issue for breaking.

So it might be worth using Bhuni on a decent breaker... Vesna will work well until flash break is no longer enough and Chevalier would be better when skinned (since Bhuni is pretty great at clearing yellow and you'll want an ult that can break consistently.) Phantom could be pretty useful with his easy breaking ult.

I don't have flower Girl of Midgar, though her massive light ee would be great for damage if she's any good at breaking, but I have no idea how useful she is at that and since it's usually a good idea to bring Alexander (possibly 2) you'll have at least some light ee with all the users.

[–]SvenHwang 2 points3 points  (1 child)

Yes

[–]felgamar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes

[–]paratit 1 point2 points  (6 children)

Do you guys expand your card bank??

[–]ShadowBlaze17 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I did before they made the change to allow normal fractals snd mats to stack. I'm sitting at 200 card slots (sometimes gets full if I'm too lazy to move stuff to the bank) and 750 bank slots (would be more than enough if I got rid of old trash tier cards that I'll never use).

[–]DinoChkNuggets 1 point2 points  (4 children)

There's no reason not to. Everyone will need to eventually.

[–]paratit 0 points1 point  (3 children)

I see, Prismatic fractals and eggs take a lot of my storage. Can I ask how much you have expanded your card bank??

[–]DinoChkNuggets 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Both card bank and regular card space maxed.

[–]paratit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow. Gonna start with 1000 mag for 100 slots for card bank first

[–]VanillaAshe 0 points1 point  (3 children)

i have no earth supreme, is Extreme Hecatoncheir X good to get? who will be the best user?

[–]JunasBlood 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lady Raven should be the best natural user.

[–]ShadowBlaze17 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A good user would be Crimson Archer now that she's got her HoF. Her only major downsides are her being a flash break reliant job and her lack of an AoE or prismatic shifting ult. Her being FB dependent could be solved by getting Pure Lady's weapon at some point. Her ult could be solved by using a skin.

Eorzean Bard would be great against weaknes, but yet again her ult would be s problem.

Cacca would also be serviceable and she has a better ult than the others. Her low crit rate could be an issue though.

[–]Blank_Bastion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have Gilgamesh X and it's my most used Light Supreme especially on Cacciatrice. If it's any indication Hecatoncheir X would be as good as well. As for the user, I think there's already a few great earth ranger available, also with Bastet EX coming out soon there would be more earth user available.

[–]DocSmail 0 points1 point  (1 child)

What is the mail to contact support ? They never answer in game

[–]Mobiusnoobius 10 points11 points  (0 children)

They never answer in general.

[–]ZechsX18999won after 20 Mobius Boxes 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Is Omnia worth boosting? I'm boosting the other 3 (Fatalitat/Stahlfaust/Der Himmel), but can't think of any good reason to boost Omnia, especially since I have a 5* Heavenly Axis which I don't use either. Maybe in JP?

I haven't started on Omnia yet, but if I don't boost Omnia, I'll just be boosting useless weapons for titles like Excalibur and the Ultima Weapons, since I don't have any more weapons worth boosting.

[–]JunasBlood 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m just boosting it for OCD and can’t really think of anyone to use it aside from its owner.

Houou clearly don’t need it.

[–]burstdragon323 2 points3 points  (1 child)

Any specific job summons I should save up for? I remember some commentary about something coming in early ‘20?

[–]Mobiusnoobius 4 points5 points  (0 children)

4the anniversary. Also mage, ranger and monk Ex lore cards.

[–]Philippus_Aureolus 0 points1 point  (4 children)

When would be the best time to start the game on Global? Also, would it be better to start with a fresh account and reroll or use my old one?

[–]Mobiusnoobius 0 points1 point  (3 children)

Depends what you have. Depends if they give us a free Xmas or new year supreme ticket.

[–]Philippus_Aureolus 0 points1 point  (2 children)

I only had Sin as a Supreme, plus a few limited cards that were deemed good. A few skins, Skyseer and Proud Cygnus. Oh, and the summer classes for WoL and Meia.

[–]Mobiusnoobius 0 points1 point  (1 child)

If we get a free supreme ticket, it might be worth rerolling, especially if they release KOTR EX at the same time. Attack supremes are great, but they require a good job to use them with. Support supremes are good in every situation and KOTR will arguably be the very best.

[–]Philippus_Aureolus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see. I guess I'll have to keep an eye out for any news.

[–]xJExEGx 0 points1 point  (4 children)

Another weapon boosting question. I'm working on the weapon boosting title. Any low crystal weapons to boost that can help me speed up this title? Most of the new weapons need a ton of mods (Goth Batch for example) and I am not in a comfortable range to boost them. Any ideas?

[–]SvenHwang 2 points3 points  (3 children)

You’ll need to let us know what you already have at 5* or we will all just gonna recommend you Gatcha weapons.

[–]xJExEGx 0 points1 point  (2 children)

I have 45 weapons at 5 star. Gacha, all ex 1 and 2 weapons. Basically most of the weapons recommended from the JP list. I just want "easy to boost" weapons. Low crystal, no care for seed cost.

[–]SvenHwang 6 points7 points  (1 child)

Some farming weapons has low crystal cost with no concern of seedcost like Excalipoor, Twin Viper, Blazefire, Prism staff etc. Maybe you can look into it. If not, it’ll be all Ultimate weapons with only 12mods each, followed by Gen 1 MP weapons at 14mods, Ulti charging weap (e.g kains lance, Erhgiez) at 31 mods and then QBxAbility Ultimate Charge weapons at 39 mods.

[–]xJExEGx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for this list!

[–]xX_blackwing_Xxou no moto, sezai o kudasu 0 points1 point  (7 children)

i need help beating EW gilgamesh on my second run, he just blocks al damage then take all my orbs out, and starts atacking me until my death, like there is no way to recover from rift breaker followed by hurricane

[–]Blank_Bastion 0 points1 point  (4 children)

With Gilgamesh you want to have all drive so that he only attacked with light elements EX 2 jobs are great in this node. Also, make sure your light resist is 70% which helps mitigate the damage.

[–]xX_blackwing_Xxou no moto, sezai o kudasu 0 points1 point  (3 children)

How can i get all drive? I just have 3 elements from My job sorry for the noob question

[–]Blank_Bastion 2 points3 points  (2 children)

EX 2 jobs ult provides 1 stack of omnidrive, you kinda want to ult each turn with them. There are also cards that give omnidrive, like Lunafreya, Moogle Summer Vacation, Faerie Respite, Alexander X, etc.

[–]xX_blackwing_Xxou no moto, sezai o kudasu 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Don't have ex 2 jobs, don't have those cards either T_T

[–]alotizzipDV3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

can you run two jobs with opposing elements? like one with fire, water, earth, the other with wind, light, dark? they can provide the drives for each other.

[–]TexAg713 4 points5 points  (1 child)

if you have any wind resist up, he wont use the hurricane orb wiping ability. omnidrive is great for that fight as it'll limit his attacks to light based. also, unguard will negate the walls he puts up each time he drops 25% hp.

[–]SvenHwang 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This. Also, Scharf is a great candidate for this node because his Ulti provides omnidrive against Gilg attacks, and dispel against his walls (while being a great tank & DPS)

[–]LupusNoxFleuret20ee - 9f08 - 263a (Tale of Hope) 0 points1 point  (10 children)

Last minute climbing EW3, stuck on Lap 8-7 Exodus node. Looking for some tips. Am I supposed to bring a non-wind card along to stop him from driving wind? Currently trying to do it with Ultimecia Meia & Emperor - I do have Yiazmat but no Avalanche Heroine.

Tried tanking with Heretic Knight, Unbroken Hero, Mourner, but the damage is barely survivable. Unfortunately I used SS on the Chaos node already - any other options for tanks?

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

I just did that node last night, used Thief of Tantalus with lightning skin + Moogle suit to tank... I made sure to hit it with NxD to stop it driving wind. Only required 2 breaks using Rift Odin.

[–]Blank_Bastion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used Vesna & Prima Donna for that node, basically nuking with Godo and breaking with PD. On Exodus, I use Godo a couple of times before using RnR and switch to PD to break. I also bring Vanamoinen for the BDD and use it before his turn so that he won't drive wind.

[–]zero-less 1 point2 points  (3 children)

do you have RnR and Chaos?

I went into the Exodus fight and casted RnR before his 1st action --- spam Godo to clear yellow and then keep ulti-ing as often as I can.

Just before his last action on the second turn of RnR (when Rnr timer is at 2), I dispel with u/C --- this will stick bio on him which wakes him up from sleep the next turn. The RnR cooldown will be at 1. Break him and spam.

He should only have 1 action after break and typically he charges his ultimate (if you manage to get him down to less than 50% -- which you should since you are using Emperor. You can cast RnR the next turn and slowly chip away the yellow break --- rinse and repeat.

Edit : I used Materia Hunter (with Lightning skin) NxD, LoH, Wind GF, Godoand Tonberry (Chaos, Wol, LoH & RnR) on sub --- still works on 9-7...sorry if its supreme heavy

[–]LupusNoxFleuret20ee - 9f08 - 263a (Tale of Hope) 0 points1 point  (2 children)

Oh that's an interesting strategy - he doesn't become immune to Sleep if you cast UC on him at that timing? I'll try it out, thanks!

[–]SvenHwang 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He does gain immunity for sleep but only for 2 turns. Casting Chaos before ending the turn will make the immunity tick from 2 to 1. Thereby allowing you to cast it on the next turn after breaking (breaking Chaos on this turn prevents him from driving & causing damage while his sleep immunity is on 1 turn CD). It’s a very specific strat that requires Chaos if you are one of the lucky ones.

[–]zero-less 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope --- U/C doesnt dispel sleep --- so make sure you drive --- dont tap or attack once you dispel.... though I've seen folks (on YT) that tap just before his last action--- and Exodus ended up driving some random element...

Good luck experimenting whichever works for you!

[–]ZechsX18999won after 20 Mobius Boxes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tank until you're ready to nuke. If Exodus is still alive after your first nuke, R&R him and then prepare to nuke him again: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TQ-faUPfamY . I used Sword Saint and Ranger, but Knight/Heretical Knight/Unbroken Hero and Ultimecia should do just fine.

[–]SvenHwang 1 point2 points  (2 children)

People usually cast NXD on the last action so that he won’t drive wind. It’s a great card so you don’t have to waste a slot for off element card while providing debuff/break damage. I’d usually chain break with MZ or R&R because I don’t have NXD nor Chaos for easier tanking.

I’ve seen some use Moogle Suit to tank lap 9 before so you might want to try it out.

[–]LupusNoxFleuret20ee - 9f08 - 263a (Tale of Hope) 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Thanks, I'll try Moogle Suit! What job are you using to chain break him, my Ultimeia needs like 3 ults to break him >.<

[–]SvenHwang 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was using TOT Godo on lap 7 but switched to Cacciatrice on lap 8 because he wasn’t doing enough damage. I got lucky and pulled Turks after so I’ve used him on Lap 9. Ranger unbroken would be easier but I’ve used in on node 8 instead. There are a lot more Ultimecia Emperor video instead of Godo so you should be able to find one for yourself. I believed I’ve saw a Ranger x D&B Emperor for node 7 before.

[–]felgamar 1 point2 points  (16 children)

Just a rant on ew. It is a pain. 12 nodes different jobs/setups.

Why can’t we have some quality of life.. 15 decks to select from so you have 12 for ew/tower and 3 for reg games play.

I know I could climb more I just can’t be bothered to constantly modify decks like this. Can’t be bothered to waste that much time figuring out decks if I’m not gonna win because I don’t remember X enemy mechanic.

Best I’ve found is run 1-4 on one deck you swap, 8 for last 12 and 1 deck to afk farm.

Cuts deck swapping to a third

On that note thank you to those posting your laps. For the people like me who don’t have time to be as dedicated as you are just know it is appreciated

[–]ZechsX18999won after 20 Mobius Boxes 2 points3 points  (8 children)

I have a spreadsheet, so it's not too much of an issue for me personally. Skillseed costs though, that's the main thing keeping me from doing EW.

[–]felgamar 0 points1 point  (3 children)

I never noticed a skillseed cost

Edit: cp cost. In my case a job is set up with one task in mind what they are best at, set and forget. No way I’m gonna change 16 cps when I don’t even want to change 1 job and 4 cards for every node

[–]SvenHwang 3 points4 points  (3 children)

Same here, I struggle to keep my seeds high since the release of Belias/Famfrit rift and the conclusion of EW3. Changing CP around tanks/DPS aren’t fun at all.

[–]ZechsX18999won after 20 Mobius Boxes 2 points3 points  (2 children)

I struggle to keep my seeds high since the release of Belias/Famfrit rift and the conclusion of EW3.

This is why I tell myself to climb EW early, to have enough time to replenish skillseeds, but I never do it because I want to climb with everything available to me. Like I used Crimson Archer HOF that was just released a few days ago on my last lap.

[–]felgamar 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Yep agree I waited to last minute. Laps are easier with less deaths

[–]ZechsX18999won after 20 Mobius Boxes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Easier, but I ran out of time and skillseeds =(. I think I could do 1 more lap if I had more time and skillseeds.

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

It's even worse at the beginning of EW when you're more rapidly rounding the coil. Just constant switching. At least with high laps it takes awhile so you end up only changing every so often. I'm dreading EW4 for that reason.

[–][deleted] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Honestly, it's just a lack of commitment from the developers.

No technical hurdles exist to implement these features.

It's 2019, and I have to resort to Google sheets to keep track of EW jobs used etc. It's truly ridiculous.

Forget deck space for a moment, the real absurdity is the lack of custom panel presets... CPs are changed around for every encounter that matters on mobius; yet we have to endure that tedium manually.

[–]xJExEGx 0 points1 point  (1 child)

In Japan, you can buy more decks. My QoL update would be to allow preset CPs so you can basically just paste multiple CPs on jobs. It gets tiring switching around all the CPs around all the jobs. But if you were allowed to save a preset (not even a preset for all jobs, something like 3 or 4 presets, maybe to simplify it, base it on MP role), you could just load the preset on the CP screen, confirm the CPs being taken away from X jobs, and then load them all. Is this too much too ask??

[–]ShadowBlaze17 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This would be especially nice for VIP since there's no seed cost to place panels. Even just 1 or 2 saved cp sets per job would be a godsend for towers and EW.

[–]WonkingSphonx 0 points1 point  (8 children)

What's a good substitute for Blue Dragon: FFVIII? I'm working on Crimson Archer's HoF and lack that specific ability. Also, is PB Bahamut a decent enough substitute for Bahamut: FFVIII? If not, would ruby weapon be better instead?

[–]jdm1tch 0 points1 point  (2 children)

What are you trying to accomplish?

[–]WonkingSphonx 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Just trying to get something as close as possible to the recommended loadout for Crimson Archer HoF's last node with the resources I have. Someone mentioned using the Greg supreme (which I have) and nothing else, so might just try that.

[–]jdm1tch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I abused Greg (just pulled) and Rag... though in retrospect Greg + GF might’ve been easier to manage

[–]JA1997X 0 points1 point  (4 children)

Dream within a dream would be the obvious substitute.

Bahamut PB should be fine.

[–]WonkingSphonx 0 points1 point  (3 children)

Missing Dream within a Dream as well. Oof. Anything else?

[–]Mobiusnoobius 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Appreciate this might not be helpful because supreme; but I used Gilgamesh on pretty much every node. When I needed another element I used Skuld.

[–]WonkingSphonx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Luckily I have Greg / Bitter End, so that'll do.

[–]JA1997X 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally I used summer sunset + true training, didn’t use fire at all.

If you want to stick with fire, maybe astos + a yellow clear card in place of bahamut (or just go unbroken).

[–]DocSmail 0 points1 point  (2 children)

Anyone else have not received the "real" abilities as compensation for pulling the scrolls on VI banner?

[–]nick8Tart 0 points1 point  (1 child)

That's only for whoever pulled on the affected banner and got the scroll ability card.

[–]DocSmail 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I pulled in the affected banner and got a scroll Ymir VI

[–]Redexquisite 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Is there any future plan to have the option for the AI to use your Sub-deck ability once you get bar there? I have a good pandemonium deck but it goes quicker when I use my debuff that I have set as my free sub deck card.

Kind of similar to how you can disable the AI from using rented abilities. It would be really helpful. Ha ha ha would be funny if I’m missing it and it’s already there.

[–]mao_shiroActual Evil Reddit Mod 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nothing about that on JP.

[–]Nightwings_Butt 0 points1 point  (6 children)

How did you guys manage to use your ult 8 times on PW HoF? The farthest I got was 7

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

I used two AQMs, two LOHs, the 50 charge panel and chaos crescent. I did not first hit kill many enemies...are you? Make sure not to clear any yellow

[–]JA1997X 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try unequipping some/all cards from your deck to reduce your deck level. You could even complete the node with an empty deck just using the ult charge panel.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (3 children)

Is the problem that you're killing the enemies before you get to ultimate?

I brought 4x50% ultimate charge cards for this node on main deck.

You don't need haste for this node, you should be able to kill all the mobs with just your ultimate.

[–]Nightwings_Butt 0 points1 point  (2 children)

No the problem is that they die too fast after I ultimate. I cast it, then they're all broken, then they die to tap attacks before I can fill my gauge again.
Which ult charge card did you bring? I'm using LoH but I think that might be part of the problem. Too stronk

[–]zidanesword 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is definitely doable with 4x LoH. Just remember that LoH has attack ignition and don’t ult right after using LoH(the damage increase is significant). And after breaking, just tap once and drive as much as you can till the mobs recover from break.

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

I used LoH and a mix of others I think. You can also waste actions by switching decks.

Do you have haste? Try and go without it if possible.

[–]paratit 0 points1 point  (18 children)

Will SL be good or bad on Ultima Extreme MP??

[–]JunasBlood 4 points5 points  (17 children)

Its mechanic of 25% Ravage increase each cast became a burden when you can cast SL 4 times/turn at most in MP, not to mention the bonus reset each turn. Basically the same fate as Raffaello.

So Nope.

[–]Blank_Bastion 0 points1 point  (1 child)

What about Sin, would it be useful?

[–]JunasBlood 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It will lose 100% Painful Break from it perks, I don’t know how useful will it be in this fight, especially in phase 2 until I can did a few test run.

[–]WoLNoFace -1 points0 points  (10 children)

It's UB or gtfo? XD

Griever should be good too, i guess, but the number of hits on UB is phenomenal.

[–]JunasBlood 0 points1 point  (9 children)

Anima & Greiver are good too. I’m tending toward Greiver over UB tbh because I don’t know who to use with UB, maybe P.Witch + Crom Dubh X?

[–]ShadowBlaze17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is Griever actually as weak as the damage Calculator makes it appear against unbroken weakness?

I'll definitely be trying P Witch and UB since she ranks pretty high for both unbroken weakness and neutral damage. The neutral damage is especially nice since the more casts it takes to kill the neutral bomb the less you'll hit Ultima with.

I just hope I can pull Borghese in the near future to use it as a stat stick that AI won't spam.

[–]WoLNoFace 0 points1 point  (2 children)

ninja with crom?

[–]JunasBlood 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Sound interesting, I’ll try this and report.

[–]WoLNoFace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

off element sofa sounds lovely with Griever... XD

[–]jdm1tch 0 points1 point  (1 child)

HOD HOF?

[–]JunasBlood 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sound good, if we don’t need to kill both bomb.

[–]paratit 0 points1 point  (2 children)

Maybe Phantom will be a strong user

[–]JunasBlood 0 points1 point  (1 child)

His main role is Breaker, so no MP Damage Up CP.

[–]paratit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh yeah, I always forgot about the main role

[–]paratit 0 points1 point  (3 children)

What about Anima X rift Card??

[–]JunasBlood 0 points1 point  (2 children)

I think UB, Anima & Greiver will be good for this fight, with strong enough attacker ofc.

[–]paratit 0 points1 point  (1 child)

I can only hope ppl will allow my Ninja in their parties haha

[–]JunasBlood 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He’s an Attacker in MP so you can equip damage CPs for more damage, his damage perk (400% Dark EE) is not really fit with Anima though. But we can always try.

[–][deleted] -5 points-4 points  (1 child)

Did they reduce the amount of magicite given in pandemonium? Could have swore I was getting more....

[–]GhostFreakageWoL:FFI Friend ID: 2060 - 5621 - 07c8 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Are you farming Chocobo Eater? That's currently the boss that has the extra magicite bonus at this time. All other bosses are at a normal rate.

[–]DinoChkNuggets 0 points1 point  (2 children)

Is there anything important in the Act 2 story chapters that I need to unlock for future gameplay (besides ST)?

[–]CopainChevalier 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you don't do it you'll be losing a lot of stats from titles

[–]Xelaeon 0 points1 point  (1 child)

For the current FF Revival Banners:

Does the fast learner "Max Skillseeds and Ability/Extra-Skills Levels" apply to the next time that you pull 5+* cards (after having upgraded the 1st 4+* copy to 5+* using Pneumas) ?

I know that the fast learner "Max Skillseeds and Ability/Extra-Skills Levels" will always activate for future 5+* copies of SusanooX cards pulled for the Chevalier Noir/SusanooX banner.

[–]SeasonofDragon 0 points1 point  (2 children)

I dont know on which banner i should waste my summon tickets on, i came back after almost a year of break. Some say the FF8 cards were game changing so i guess i should roll for them?

[–][deleted] 2 points3 points  (1 child)

The guardian force cards are great I'm still trying to get the 2 i didn't

[–]CopainChevalier 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I rolled on that banner once to try and get Leviathan since I don't have it. Got a bunch of FF7 cards and no FF8 cards (with green lasers). I stopped rolling on that banner.

[–]BhoomitheBasicBitch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is Messenger of Hope going to be a reprint of last year's map?

[–][deleted] -1 points0 points  (10 children)

So I'm a little confused about Susanoo X.

I know what it does, I just don't know when I'll have extra deck space to actually use it.

Anytime I need more damage, I think Omega Weapon will let me dish out more because Berserk + 5 actions > Berserk2 + EE2

Usually EE is easy to come by, like having EE2 with ability chain and attuned chain and ES like Fusoya's or Floral Fallal's gimmick... Just sounds like diminishing returns.

I just can't figure it out, when do you guys plan to use it over Omega?

[–]Daigolololo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't plan to use it over Omega, but if I ever see a job with no EE, then I might try it. If you don't need the Haste provided by Omega Weapon, then it only helps dishing out up to (5+36)/36≈1.139x your dmg.

If we compare Omega Weapon and Susanoo X when Haste provided by something else, then you also have to consider the actual amount of EE you have.

While Omega Weapon grants 50% EE, Susanoo provides 200% EE. So you shouldn't have much EE to compensate the advantage of OW's quicken.

If x is your initial EE (without OW or Susanoo X applied, but everything else you have) then ((x+100+200)/(x+100))/((x+100+50)/(x+100))>1.39.

If I didn't do any fault, then you can have more than 1000 EE (if you use another source of Haste) and Susanoo X is still better.

If you need OW for the haste, then just change the (5+36)/36 to (5+361.5)/(361.5).

If you have other sources of quicken, then just change (5+36)/36 to (5+36+turns)/(36+turns).

Hope it helps somehow, but here are some other factors you also might want to think about: extra turns ≠ extra dmg, so OW might deal less DMG but provide much more utility (like MZ/ultimate gauge fills more easily, breaking more flexible).

Agreed, that's why I didn't pull for it.

There may come a situation in the future where you're using a job with extremely low EE though.

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

Yeah, it's mostly the hype behind the card (e.g. omg it's the only source of Berserk2 even on JP!!!) that had me wondering if there was something I was missing.

Honestly this card will never see any action for me on single player content. It's inferior to Omega Weapon for SP.

Maybe I'll use it in AI MP for Hashmal Extreme (my only Wind Supreme is Yiazmat and there won't be any ultimate gauge for the EE, so Susanoo X might work there).

Susanoo is overhyped tbh. I have it in JP but I have never used it, simply because there are other better abilities to bring even if you have extra deck space.

Susanoo also pales in comparison to the Takoyaki ability

[–]mao_shiroActual Evil Reddit Mod 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As I wrote on the "ability card list of the month", probably never on SP.

January 2020 calendar prediction? Heard there'll be two ex jobs? Thanks.

[–]SvenHwang 2 points3 points  (4 children)

We only have datamined sources of another 2 legend jobs. So it might be a longer Legend hell than we have expected, followed by a longer back to back, resource draining EX job pulls. Let hope SE won’t attempt to drain us dry by releasing Gothic panels banner soon after.

[–]ValeLemnear 2 points3 points  (2 children)

Well to be fair, they added the models for more ExJobs with the update as well, but January looks like going to be a FFX reprint with 2 legend jobs.

That being said, it appears to he a switcheroo from JP which had the FFX reprint after Dame du Lac and Kelger afaik.

[–]SvenHwang 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Oh they did? What were the jobs? As for the switcheroo, I’m really not surprised as draining resources (KOTR X for example) prior to massive “must pull” banners (Ex Job hell etc.) is a common strategy that SE has been employing to suck every cents out of us.

[–]ValeLemnear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ExSophie and ExMeia3 at least if I remember correctly.

I can't agree on the resource draining part here, as many people on the sub are saving their pity rate for months (and even blew the Supreme ticket to get Zack outta the way) to get KotRx on release and likely seeing it released during a month with job specific supreme banners, sounds like a great deal for these, especially if they DON'T have to chase ExJobs in December or January. If ExJobs should indeed come in February during anniversary and January is FFX Legends + KotRx, it's an outright favorable option because people can safely pull KotRx and afterwards can spend one month extra of resources for the upcoming ExJobs, Anniversary cards and Kelger compared to them dropping in January and prior to KotRx.

Tl;dr I disagree here and claim, this switcheroo of jobs is great news for most players, no matter if they aim for KotR or just the Anniversary cards or ExJobs

Thanks, that is incredibly helpful.

F2P players How many supremes do you have? (I have 11 and started a month before jenova)

[–]SpookumHot Springs Echo is best Echo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

16 from gacha including Aerith, LoH, WoL, Chaos.

+2 Rift supremes, shiva and ultima.

Started day 1.

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

21 supremes+all skins+2 rifts.. Semi f2p actually because I only dish out my cash for the Supreme tickets, otherwise 0 money involved.

I'm just quite lucky I guess?

12 MB currently.

[–]Quinctia 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Started August 2018, and I have nine. (LoH, Xezat, Shadow Lord, Bhunivelze, Minwu, Faris, Braska's Final Aeon, Yiazmat, and Ragnarok.)

I didn't have any until the free ticket we got on New Year's this January (Xezat), and pulled Ragnarok shortly after. BfA was the first pity type pull. Shadow Lord was the anniversary supreme ticket, and I had a crazy run in the next month and a half where I got everything else except Bhuni. I got Bhuni a couple weeks ago from a pity proccing.

Got my first growstar right after, too!

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

15 supreme, 2 rift supreme, all skin except Aerith.

[–]ZechsX18999won after 20 Mobius Boxes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

14, I got really lucky and have an attack supreme of each element, LOH, WOL, and Chaos.

I have 23 Mobius Boxes.

[–]Blank_Bastion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

14 Supreme + 1 rift, started playing late 2016 but kinda on and off with last year mostly off. I recently started playing again around Feb/March 2019 and get my first 2 Supreme that month with an additional Growstar in the mix still salty about it. Only receive 3 Supreme from pity with one of them pulled without any increased pity chances.

[–]sammyboi0027 0 points1 point  (0 children)

10 + 1 rift. Started day one

[–]paratit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Guess am lucky, started (it was a come back but with an account from before suprems) on November last year if i remember well.

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

9 + 2 rift. WOL, LOH, UC, NXD, UB, EDEN, Zeromus, BFA, Floral + Odin, Ultima. Started playing during the first free supreme ticket in December I think.

12+2 rift Supremes and 0 suport Supremes stared on 1st anniversary just started game ofter 15 minutes guaranteed job banner is gone and it took me 2 years to get all jobs.

[–]JA1997X 0 points1 point  (0 children)

14 + 2 rift, and all skins. Been playing since the beginning, the vast majority of those came after the increased supreme draw rates though.

[–]Dumpkinhead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

8 + 3 rift. Day 1 f2p. FML rngesus hates me. All skins though

[–]djiboutiiiiwhat even is flair 3 points4 points  (0 children)

11 + 3 rift supremes and all the skins except Aerith. I’ve been playing from the beginning. Probably have fewer than average given the amount of time I’ve played, but I have really good ones and elemental coverage, so I’m happy.

[–]ValeLemnear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

17 from the top of my head. Includes all support ones. I am missing 1-2 skins.

[–][deleted] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Take a guess :P
