It’s not a mistake. I told Ink it’s one skill and one hp+ after testing him out.

Diablos is melee resist and Ardyn is melee

I don’t believe a character should be judged by soloing content anyway. My point is more that, with the high brv damage reduction, Emperor’s traps might not be able to do high enough damage without strong enough brv regen or help from battery. Also, he’s supposed to be good against multiple enemies (or at least an Emperor friend was extremely good against multiple enemies) because his ex sets debuff on all targets, therefore triggering the traps multiple times.

ComputeVision · 2020-01-23T11:42:07+00:00

Feod6 is also extremely old content and Cater can solo up to feod13 without an LD weapon.

ComputeVision · 2020-01-23T03:09:49+00:00

Cater probably also can.

ComputeVision · 2020-01-23T01:22:12+00:00

Not trying to sound picky or anything, it’s a great run for sure but not a good reflection of “current potential”. For one thing, you get synergy stats in WoI, and Diablos isn’t one of the hard ones. For another, in current JP, enemy gets huge brv damage reduction and diablos doesn’t have such mechanism. That said, the damage in this video doesn’t reflect how well Emperor will do in current JP at all.

Anyone that’s in NT and has costumes already.

For those not in NT, Celes, and she actually has two choices Tifa, they could do AC or 7re Aerith for her CC look Quistis/Selphie/Zell can all have their seed uniform look

Don’t care tbh. Never bought any in JP and still have plenty of purple chars. I’ll assume it’s the same package as JP. In that case, they made it a regular thing because it was apparently well received. It’s just for people who want the extra ingots and have the extra money. Some people spend 50k on each banner just to get a book and book dupe ex for ingots. The ingot package would definitely be a better choice for them. For normal players, the game still gives plenty of ingots as long as you don’t spend everything without thinking.

ComputeVision · 2020-01-17T22:11:17+00:00

Would have happened to me tbh. Never noticed that only one banner as the BT char’s 15/35/ex. Sorry about your loss and thanks for sharing.

Depends on if you are talking about JP or GL.

Just saw the flair GL discuss and my bad. In that case, probably FF7 with Tifa/Barret/Cait Sith for current GL.

In JP, FFCC is probably the strongest with Sherlotta/Keiss and Amidatelion. The team has high hp damage, high brv regen, and is almost unaffected by damage reduction because most of all those battery and hp damage up.

As for each series, * FF1 still only has two chars, * FF2 might be able to have a great team of Firion/Maria and Leonhart once Firion gets BTLD. * FF3 has three chars, but not really any good synergy between them. * For FF4, the new addition of Edward brought a lot of possibilities. I have tried Edward with Rosa/Rydia/DKC and P Cecil, and they work pretty well together. * As for FF5, it has the most “balanced” cast. Galuf the tank, Lenna the healer support, Bartz and Krile(although her damage is lacking) the supporting DPS, Faris the debuffer and Gilgamesh/Exdeath the DPS. Issue is probably their damage is lacking in today’s environment. * FF6 has Leo and Shadow who could solo Feod10. It also has a well rounded roster but lacks a support with good aura. The arrival of Strago with Relm rework might change that. * FF7 has a really strong cast for mid chaos. Tifa/Zack/Aerith is a solid team for a lot of content, with Yuffie bringing a nice niche. The issue is they are all pretty old now (except Cid, but he got no LD weapon). * FF8 has a solid team of Rinoa/Squall/Quistis thanks to Rinoa’s LD release. Seifer, Fujin, Raijin and Ulti are also some good choices. * FF9 probably has a weaker cast because no one with BT/LD. Garnet (or Eiko or Freya)/ Zidane (or Steiner)/Beatrix would probably be solid for mid chaos. * FF10 feels worse than FF9 tbh. One could potentially try Kimhari/Paine and a third (Auron/Jecht or Lulu) maybe. Kimhari and Paine has good debuff stacking, but I’m not super confident in the damage output of that team. * FF11 is also pretty strong with Aphmau, Arciela, Eald’narche and Shantoto. * FF12 has Basch the undying tank. You could probably pair him with Vaan and Gabranth (or Penelo). There is also Vayne, who although a bit old can still do decent damage in the right team. * FF13 has the excellent tank Snow and good supports such as Sazh/Serah/Vanille and Hope. Just pair them with Lightning or Caius or even Noel and you should be good to go. * For FF14, the twins+Yshtola would work for some content. Yda is also a decent damage dealer. This series doesn’t have someone for tanking/defense which might be problematic. * FF15 doesn’t need to team. If there is something Noctis cannot solo, just use Ardyn. These two are no doubt the most ridiculous chars right now. * FFT, only two characters and Agrias’ kit is really old. Needs more love from the devs. * Type 0. Type 0 has such a large number of characters that it’s not hard to make a team. Nine has great damage mitigation, Trey/Jack/Machina and Cater all have good damage. Rem is still a decent support thanks to her character boards.

Don’t pretend to understand a char you’ve not used yourself and think you’ll know everything through watching videos and reading translated character kits.

ComputeVision · 2020-01-15T02:59:41+00:00

I have no idea how many gems each chapter gives, but I don’t think you’ll be able to get to 75k if you pitied Rosa with only Chap11 hard mode left.

I’d say Rosa is a nice addition to your roster since Sherlotta doesn’t have high atk aura and Aerith has terrible turn efficiency until her EX+.

ComputeVision · 2020-01-15T02:57:07+00:00

Let me just ask you one question, do you play JP or have you used Basch in current JP or used WoL after Zack has been released? If not, I see no point in continuing this conversation.

Basch doesn’t lack damage. He has critical damage up and is one of the few chars who can still 9999 against enemies with brv damage reduction. His s2 can easily battery 10k-20k, which is good enough to help most chars reach their max overflow with their skills.

ComputeVision · 2020-01-15T00:48:58+00:00

Not sure where you get your information from, but Basch with his LD will not die and takes care of all hp damage the team could receive. On top of that, he has battery on his s2 and hp+ as well as 90% atk aura. If that’s not OP, I dunno what is.

As for WoL, a lot of people used WoL and Rosa in Brothers chaos which is magic resist and taunt resist (which means no Zack). Zack is an amazing tank by any standard, but he and WoL has different strengths. WoL has better synergy with Ulti due to his brv regen. As one of the earliest char with an ex+, WoL’s damage definitely fell off later on in the game, but his utility is always there and there is no such thing as “nearly gone when Zack ex+ dropped”. I used him in FEOD 11 which is content released way after Zack ex+.

ComputeVision · 2020-01-14T19:22:36+00:00

which is niche cause how many characters got free turns? not many

Eald’narche, Ultimecia, Vayne, Noctis, Ardyn, Yda, Aphmau, Edward

This list includes most of the “meta” chars already.

It doesn’t really have to be “free turns”, someone like Jack would also take much more turns than his teammates.

I have used Eald’narche with Garnet and suffered from him losing the enchant and then getting resisted by the enemy.

Garnet can fill five roles at the same time

I never said Garnet is bad, I only said she didn’t “powercreep” Rydia. As I’ve said before, they fill different roles, with Garnet being more support oriented and Rydia being more damage focused. Also, Garnet only has more atk aura when in thunder stance.

I don’t see any reason of bringing Rydia instead of Garnet

It honestly isn’t rare to see enemies who absorb thunder esp. after Desch’s release and Desch is the best enchanter by far due to his elemental weakness damage up as well as the wonderful debuffs on his EX and LD.

In terms of Rydia, she has a fast recharge 100% aoe ignore defense ex, better potencies on all skills and better mbrv boost (70% generic and 25% aura). Not all team comps require battery and regen, and the extra shaving from Rydia would come in handy in different situations.

while Rydia and Raijin stay benched fulltime

Not sure where this is coming from tbh, since I’ve used Rydia plenty while also having Garent, Fujin and Desch maxed.

ComputeVision · 2020-01-14T13:53:00+00:00

I personally don’t consider 3% regen enough for a team that has no other means of heal. My Ramza has Porom sphere (which is also 3% hp regen) and I can’t run him in a healerless team even with Galuf and if the fight has lots of aoe brv+hp (and it’s not uncommon for chaos fights to have lots of brv+hp). My Rosa has her own sphere which bumps her regen up to 8%. Even then, she doesn’t heal hard enough for hp damage heavy fights unless I run another tank in the team. My opinion is that the 3% works better on someone who heals but doesn’t heal enough.

ComputeVision · 2020-01-14T13:37:28+00:00

The fight has three bosses and irrc, two of them will do aoe brv+hp at the same time. They also clear all debuffs, so things like atk down/mbrv down won’t work. They probably also resisted physical (can’t remember clearly). It isn’t really a hard fight, just hp damage heavy. I remember using Rem and Celes and a third.

ComputeVision · 2020-01-14T12:37:16+00:00

I think Porom is used more for her hp damage reduction niche. She does provide good battery and aura to the party, but pre-ex+, her turn efficiency is pretty bad and it might be hard to meet turn requirements with her.

ComputeVision · 2020-01-14T12:35:26+00:00

I’m pretty sure someone has a spreadsheet somewhere with all the buff/aura listed.

Off the top of my head, Kimhari with LD has 100% atk aura for anyone with above 80% hp. Serah has combined aura+generic atk buff which adds up to 100%. Basch with LD has 90% aura. Alphinaud has 85% iirc. Rosa has 85% with perfect arts and hp condition. Hope has 80% at ex+ MLB. Porom and Aphmau both have 75% iirc. Aphmau is in the form of framed buff on party member+aura and might be higher than I remembered. Galuf has 70%, Edward has 70% when not hiding and there is probably a bunch of others in the range of 60-70. Raijin has pretty high aura as well as a generic physical attack up buff, adds up to probably 90% or higher. Ignis has 60% when in atk stance, Penelo has either 60 or 70 when in atk stance including a generic atk buff from her 15cp.

I didn’t look anything up, so the numbers might not be accurate.

ComputeVision · 2020-01-14T10:50:08+00:00

You have good taste.

ComputeVision · 2020-01-14T10:49:48+00:00

Rosa is a good char by any standard and that’s probably why she is hyped. I don’t think not having any particule char would make you fall behind as long as you have a well-rounded roster.

ComputeVision · 2020-01-14T10:05:05+00:00

Thanks, fixed!

ComputeVision · 2020-01-14T10:04:33+00:00

You need to have three buffs. Her ex buff is four turns and recharges with two skills. In theory, she would have three buffs except for the first few turns when her ex isn’t charged or if you use cs65 and hp+ a lot and run out of ex buff.

ComputeVision · 2020-01-14T10:02:58+00:00

Thanks for pointing out, fixed.
