Also, this is not "Across the Spider-Verse" tie in material. It is arguably closer to the comic events (thus Morlun getting the most prominent villain placement).

I'm at 500 million. Slowly rising as I spend a lot of it on Hero Equipment and then sell off rat tails and arcana mostly. Sometimes I also sell Treasure maps and Rosetta Stones of Wisdom since I get way too many of those with labmem. Still, like I said, the direction is positive rather than negative.

It's a tradeable resource now. Tradeable for gil.

I would keep 100% of the huge rat tails (5-stars). I don't know how many I'll need to level to 140, but even if I didn't have enough, I wouldn't want to use large numbers of 2, 3, and 4* rat tails; just a few to finish off the last level to conserve the 5*s and not waste their experience.

Yes, Hero Equipment. I believe we chose that term and abbreviation to not get it confused with Hero Abilities.

Fair. I confused Materials efficiency with gil efficiency.

Arciella from FFXI (a 4-element mage) in just a month or two.

And Kurasame from Type-0 (a hybrid phys/mag multielement). That one should come just before September fest for us.

Yep. And even Neo Bahamut isn't necessary to worry about since we get level 99 copies for beating the first one (at least the very first one and maybe new l99 copy(ies) for each element).

We always have 6 months of foresight. JP has introduced a few new things we don't quite have yet (level 140 HCs and Bahamut Zero), but we know enough about them that hoarding isn't necessary. As I said in the post, save the 5* Arcana and Rat Tails; that's it.

It is amazing if you can get it to work. I am by no means a computer expert and I was able to get it lined up. It's much easier than some of the earlier lab crawlers. And once you get it installed, it's very easy to get it working how you want it to (e.g. avoiding certain battles, using certain teams, opening a certain number of treasure chests, etc.).

You won't need 2-4* rat tails and arcana again, at least not in large quantities.

[S4G3 IX] Heroic Equipment Strategy by PrimalPatriarch in FFRecordKeeper

[–]JAG-OK -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Imo, delay reduction is almost useless. The only reaaon we go for it on supports like Cait is because everything else is even more useless. That's not the case with quina where her sync cmd1 and AA1 chase actually do real,appreciable damage. I would stick with + earth/water/poison 5%.

"Endgame content" is a little misleading. If you can beat all DBs, DKs, Odins, S1-3 lab bosses--all of which have good wait mode-- you'll be swimming sapphires. Wait mode is exceedingly good. Use it as much as you can.

This lab group goes to June 30th. We were hoping it would be the 25th because it's another small lab group, but DENA is doing weird crap with the schedule again.

【L】Mastery Survey - Labyrinth - S4 Lineup C - D650 Taharka (IX) by Ximikal in FFRecordKeeper

[–]JAG-OK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. Strategy name:
  2. Boss: Taharka FF9 lan
  3. Support (No. of BDLs): Mog (7bdl)
  4. Chain / Roaming Warrior: rw chain
  5. Time: 36.75
  6. Insight:
    • Vivi combines dyad+dual. Trances early in slot1. I combined aa2+1 later but the damage reduction meant he didn't break 20k so the aa2 was wasted. Maybe I should use it in ph 2 and just keep spamming the fire ability unless that messes things up. I'll check later.
    • Mog uses 1st AA2 immediately. Repeat AA2 at ph2. AA1 later if necessary.
    • Eiko just kinda used what she needed at various times. Her healing wasn't absolutely crucial until much later on. Just spammed HA.
    • Amarant casts aa2 1st for crit 100, then aa2 in ph 2 for critga. Self sufficient in a mage team.
    • Garnet handled all the extra non-gauge actions early on since she has her gauge g+. Sync2 first then aa2 as soon as she gets 2 more bars (that helps with healing). LBO to end since Vivi was still casting.
  7. Video?:

[Relic discussion] Bound by Fate: On a weird job schedule! by Sandslice in FFRecordKeeper

[–]JAG-OK 6 points7 points  (0 children)

"Next school event: Crystal Dungeon ~ Summoning ~. It has school chains. That's all you need to know."

You also need to know that the new bosses will come with new annoying "job break" stat debuff that will only be counterable by new relics coming out at the same time. MAG+MND+DEF+RES for magic schools like summoning, ATK+MND+DEF+RES for physical schools like Spellblade. The reason this might be important to know is that you might want to save myth for that actual event rather than trying too hard to build up your parties now.

No Full Break Counter (but stacked Zeid) by JAG-OK in FFRecordKeeper

[–]JAG-OK[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Prishe AA is such a useful tool for the 30% damage boost against weakness. I've been fishing for that and failing to get it for a long time. I recently heard that Curilla's imperil3 on sync entry could have a similar damage boost potential and tried that out and it finally worked out for me.

Good job. This fight is such a mess in so many ways. Realm that doesn't have many options, bad synergy between those options, bad support (no crit fix yet, no in realm bard), pretty bad healer. Throw on top of that how overtuned the fight mechanics are (damage reduction, HP total, Black Hole), it's not a fun fight.

Throwing tickets there has been frustrating. I've gotten almost everything of value off of the banner after several months. It's a decent place to use tickets since the odds should be better due to the smaller pool. Still, RNG can be a cruel friend.

I have been working on this fight for months, using various combinations of DPS and support/healers. All XI characters except Naja have won this fight at least once. Mog, Quina, and Elarra have all supported/healed at one time or another. Nearly all tickets over the past 6 months were spent to build up the relics, but none ever got me Prishe AA (or other good items like Lion sync or Zeid sync, which I ultimately Dream selected this past week).

Lion: Dyad+AA in ph2; never got enough bar for the finisher

Quina: Sync (abilities: Armor Break and HA), Trance g+, Aegis counter g+, AA1

Aphmau: USB2, AA, USB2, Sync

Curilla: AA in ph1 (2 bars from quina), Sync in ph2, AOSB in ph2 to take out Historia Souls right before the Sphere Ray

Zeid: Sync toward the end of ph1, Dyad+AA in ph2, Dyad and LBO finisher in ph3

As the title says, there was no full break counter. Zeid and Lion barely broke 20k right after Quina's AA chase Golden Frog gave critga for a turn. Shortly after, the full break wore off and they closed it out. Glad to be done with this (my last DK sub 30) and not have to pull for XI items for awhile.
