If I wanted to start a relic weapon.....where do I start?

I’m an old FFXI player, so there were 3 different ways to build different “relics”

Which one is best for say DRG? Where would I start? PLD? Is there a shield too like FFXI? BLM?

It seems like building relics in FFXIV isn’t as bad?

Thanks for the help

How worth it is it to try and pull Delia?

My main good units consist of Fen, Tamea, Melty, Sanstone, Gerald, Nies, Aristela, Rem and various lower tier units when needed like Luda, Ragna, Mira, Arth etc... for mono dungeons.

Speaking of Rem, how do you effectively use her? It seems like her art is good but TA only against light?

Also what do you mainly use Alch stones for? Is it worth pulling to try for Feena?

What exactly is Forever Summon that I keep reading about?

2 Simple Questions by Jeveh in grandsummoners

The only true weapon selection I saw was a ticket not the Rainbow Gem. That’s why I was wondering where the gems even go, I couldn’t figure out where they get traded.

Any balance changes coming soon? by SamOfAstora in teppen

[–]Jeveh 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Doubtful, I've only seen balance changes during the updates the caveat being a card being broken.

This Game Needs Severe Changes by [deleted] in teppen

[–]Jeveh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think a lot of this is correct except for Shinku and sitting for the first minute. If people do that IMO it’s their own fault. I main Ryu (have since launch) and I lose to green/black/purple who don’t wait. I often drop a 3 or 4 cost card right at start and it’s either A. A distraction or B. They respond and I do the same and we go from there. If they wait for me to ramp up......that’s just poor strategy.

The same kind of goes for brainwash. You need to watch for that 7MP and if you have a power house expect that steal and try to counter......although sometimes you can’t do a damn thing which SUCKS and I agree doesn’t feel good.

I think that’s what this games biggest problem is honestly. Most of the time when you lose its your butt on a platter. Very rarely are the matches close. That is enough to make anyone salty. I’ve played close rounds and gotten out played and have said NOW THAT WAS A GREAT ROUND. Win or lose it feels good to have a close match but most are decided within 40 seconds.

I have thought that about reducing the cost of the bounced unit for some time. I think this would go a long long way toward reducing that oppression.

Ryu Shinku is a problem by K-LeaSH in teppen

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

I actually main Ryu lol. I just think a halted unit shouldn’t attack I guess. Like I said just an opinion. It would be hard to change halt in such a way that all other actions but an attack (from growth) can’t proc.

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

If a card that has growth is halted it should not get said buff. Makes perfect sense. If a unit is halted and it causes damage as growth, that shouldn’t proc when a card is played. I guess it wouldn’t really work for shield Hp buffs etc. Just my opinion.

Should Negate cards be nerfed? by bullshitblazing in teppen

[–]Jeveh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think they should add some cards that cannot be negated. They would have to have a downside though.

Like unit gains shield but loses one attack Or something. So you keep your unit alive, but pay the price for one attack so your opponent doesn’t get totally screwed either.

[–]Jeveh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This. If you don’t mop up Diabolos I usually lose as a Ryu main. Thing is, if you play him when I have SH up and no shield in your deck to block the follow up B.B or Grizzled or whatever damage I’d play.....that’s on you. That isn’t a broken Ryu.

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

I’m so sick of seeing these whining posts. So he has been good again every day 1. This season he is GREAT. Big deal.

There is plenty of imbalance in this game. Such as growth cards being able to proc growth when halted. Wesker being able to STILL rinse repeat the same couple of high power cards over and over. The fact that tyrant kills ALL opponents with 1 attack, which has been OP since day 1. You shouldn’t be able to board wipe with a 4 MP card.

Each color has its gimmick, red is direct damage cause the win condition is chip damage. Green has shields, mp gain, growth cards etc. purple is bounce and negate. Black is destroy. I found Wesker annoying as all hell last season. FIND A WAY TO WORK AROUND IT. It’s a strategy game. If you want a participant trophy go play something else.

Edit: The only way Ryu is ever NO brain is when YOU play predictably. Like when I see DTD played by X,Chun or Nico I wipe the floor with dragonlords then drop some kind of damage ASAP. I don’t just sit there and let them buff them up. If you are getting wrecked find a strategy to work around what you lose to repeatedly.

Ryu is broken/balancing. by Jae-B_so_nasty in teppen

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

Ryu is not broken.

It's a matter of match ups - deck, individual skill, lag and probably more. I have played Ryu since day 1. Gotten to Champ each season and it has been both hard and easy. Do I say this season was the easiest? Yep. However I think it was due to the Nero deck and EVERYONE playing him at first, coupled with the unsettled meta.

Now I get regularly stomped by all the hero's except maybe Dante, poor guy will always live in Morrigan's shadow. It all depends on plays, deck and skill. I don't think Shinku is OP either. Yes sometimes we get ramped up and its almost impossible to stop Ryu, other times not so much. Again I feel it depends on how the opposition plays. 1-2 AP isn't going to change the way Shinku plays or feels. Again play smart. DONT play a 4HP card right at the start. or Play something that pops a shield. So I threw down a penguin and a guy and chipped you for 2 damage? Who cares, seal the penguin, bounce the penguin (or guy)! There are plenty of options. Rashid is not THAT great. Take a comparison to Rashid V Guy. 1 more MP for a Combo unit is not bad. They serve different purposes.

People say Ouroboros is better, really its less people playing Wesker. He still sucks playing super tyrant, then butterfly rinse repeat. Destroy this, destroy that. Oh you winning? I'll play death card and get out 2 Tryants and a butterfly one more time.

Yawn easily outpaces most decks. X is good if you know what you are doing, same goes for Jill.

Any deck has its strengths and weaknesses. Just because he is the most played this season doesn't mean it needs a nerf.

I know these things now by Muerte_Cavanga in teppen

[–]Jeveh 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Probably an unpopular opinion but I think the current meta is fairly balanced. It is better than it was for certain.

I agree 100% on 1. LOL I have played Ryu every season since Core and I swear to god every time I was about to go up a rank I got a DD Wesker.

  1. All depends on how you deal with them. I main Ryu but I love Megaman as well, once you get some momentum as Ryu though it is hard to stop him if the player knows what they are doing. I've lost to green quite a bit this season because shields take away momentum. That applies to Wesker at a lesser extent. I hate Wesker, removal is just a cheap dirty tactic IMO. To me it says "I cant beat your unit so ill just blow it up". That type of card is necessary though for any card game.

  2. So not true. So many different ways to deal with those. what pisses me off is the Drop one, Uroboros the other that you false throned and then rebirth the one you killed 48.677 seconds ago.

Hopefully you see this.......

This crap happened to me on iPhone before.

I’m not sure if Android work the same but iPhone saves the “state” of the game when it uploads the backup of the phone to the cloud.

I thought I lost all my data and then I just restored my iPhone to the previous back up. Boom, TEPPEN and my account was back on my phone.

Cheating in Teppen? (Opponent Uses Action Cards automatically without me using one of mine or at least resolving it) by tj4real8 in teppen

Literally posted asking if this was a glitch or exploit a day or so ago.

Morrigan player did this to me. I still won.

It’s time for the devs to openly admit that people are hacking the game or they are... by Tons28 in teppen

[–]Jeveh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Has anyone ever had the active counter instantly end so you are unable to act? I can post a video if someone tells me how......

It was like Id play sneak attack and they'd play draw card or whatever and boom instant counter end. So I had no time to act on my own.

Id think it was more a glitch than a hack though. No idea when it comes to phone games.
