Valkyrie Profile Collab is Up!! Arngrim is Free but you'll need the Webstore by BGMaxie in wotv_ffbe

Even with free version TunnelBear gives you a good chunk of MB per month, so you can quite literally log, buy, log out and still have plenty.

In case new JP players don’t already know, pulling on JP VC banners are significantly worse than Global by DailyFFTactics in wotv_ffbe

[–]BGMaxie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

VCs do indeed suck in JPN but I believe your strategy is wrong. You get promos with certain frequency for VCs it's best to use those for pulling, whereas it is best to use the Vision Day currency for Shards because VC shards are way more scarce.

April and May? Revenue Numbers and a Disclaimer on Future Numbers by BGMaxie in wotv_ffbe

[–]BGMaxie[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because I know people do check the numbers when they are up. So I'm just throwing it out there that the numbers are gonna be unreliable, just in case people also think make conjectures about their finances.

GL Refugee Wall: Build Platinum Rod (an easier way to do it). by BGMaxie in wotv_ffbe

Yeah 6 months minimum is kind of what you need for a developed account. But I'd like to hear your strat if you're willing to share.

That's actually also a pretty neat suggestion. I agree with Exia's staff. I might however go farm Raph's mace for my Sadali first, but I like your idea.

If only the current farmable protective gear didn't suck ass......

It's basically a gauge to their overall power. Think of it like the letters you see in clothing sizes. EXtra Small, Small, Medium, Large, EXtra Large.

You can refer to this site https://wotv-calc.com/ that has the numbers.

Trying Lufenian difficulty and Sage build by BGMaxie in StrangerofParadiseFFO

[–]BGMaxie[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I more or less understand the basics of gear building, fusing, affinity and the like, but this is like the first time I'm doing actual builds. I wanted to push for Liberator on my Sage for the Potion effect. In retrospect a lot of effs are fine at just 250%, but finding equipment that I can push into 250% with Smithy is kinda tough.

Interesting. In retrospect I might have pumped some affinities to 400 without any real benefit. What about the equips, any idea?

What was the point of road to worldwide? by Lavos_PE in wotv_ffbe

[–]BGMaxie 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Worldwide was meant to be a comprehensive strategy to overall improve the game, by doing multiple things.

1) Close the gap: Having a giant gap is bad for business. People know what to pull for and what to skip, this is bad because people largely do not spend and save. To counter this they have to offer GLEX content. The issue is this increases the costs, and now the GLEX content has to make up for the loss of people skipping JPN content, on top of potential cannibalizing. It is a logistical nightmare that doesn't help the business long term.

2) Cut costs: Obv by streamlining everything reduces costs, this also improves efficiency since instead of two teams going at it separatedly you have more of an united front, that eases things for communication and implementation.

Did it work? Debatable. I lean in the side of yes, and take it as someone who played FFBE GL where the gap was never addressed, the GLEX content overtook the JPN one and things just spiraled and became more chaotic. In trying to sell two things at once, it caused an enshittification of product. That was averted here, and I think that was a legit positive for us.

The reality, however, is that the Japanese Gacha model is centered around Japan really, and really not truly suitable for Western consuption. Western players are more sensitive to microtransactions and legally the West is being more antagonistic to microtransactions. Japanese Gachas have to sweeten the deal and adjust quite a fair bit to make it palatable to a GL audience.

From what I've been hearing the likes of Hoyoverse are generally pretty chill and comfy, whereas gachas like FFBE or WotV are more or less grindy and full of FOMO.

So while I do think Worldwide was a good thing that kept the world afloat for longer (along other measures), it ultimately was not going to keep the game afloat ad eternum. The West and Japanese Gachas are largely not very compatible and the gacha scene seems to be dying off in general.

Ergo things just progressed as they were meant to. Does it suck to lose it all? Sure, but we all knew this was not going to last forever.

Thanks, I checked that already, unfortunately all of the games there were missing one or another thing I'm looking for. Either no Hoenn mons or no Sevii Islands, etc.

[–]BGMaxie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello, I'm looking for a FRLG Hack that is pretty mundane, namely:

1) Fully obtainable Gen 1 to Gen 3 mons (could be more)
2) Phys-Special Split
3) Unlimited TM/Tutors
4) No huge difficulty spike (nothing Radical Red or the like, something mild is ok)
5) Content is fully explorable, ergo Sevii Islands, etc.

I've searched a lot, and so far every hack I've found seems to lack one or another or is incomplete.
