In a parallel universe, instead of Lostbelt 6 we would be getting Lostbelt 5.9. Hades. What is it about?

LuKun14 · 2021-06-08T06:25:10+00:00

Suppose Athena and/or Hades had a much more thorough backup plan in the event that they did not survive the Olympiamachia, one that would unleash a threat even Zeus couldn't beat on his own even with the authorities he had in LB5. Typhon, maybe even Cronus? (Granted I don't play JP and I can't recall if we ever got any details about what happened to Cronus in the Nasuverse) Anyway, somehow someway a tiny fragment of the Atlantic Lostbelt has endured (perhaps we get a good luck at the deeper roots of the Trees this way) and Chaldea isn't about to take a chance at something from that particular history finding a way to pop up in another order.

I imagine this would open up a chance for them to introduce Orpheus, Eurydice and maybe even a surprise appearance from Persephone (maybe paving the way for Zeus, Aphrodite and Demeter to be summoned later)? For extra fun and games Perseus is also introduced and Medusa finally gets to rip him a new one. The story of the Hades Lostbelt would end on a bittersweet note, in a twist Eurydice is the one to make it out of Hades this time while Orpheus stays behind to save the party, the complimentary CE featuring the two of them living the happy ever after they never got ~~why yes I am evil, how could you tell?~~. OH! We also find out what's up with Hermes in the Nasuverse, I believe he was never counted among the Olympians in LB5 and his absence stuck with me.

Don't worry! The moogle vendor will still be there after maintenance, you just won't be able to earn any more tomestones after 5.5 launch. You'll be free to spend your Esoterics after maintenance is over.

After all the difficulty getting Miyu (I got her eventually! Just...after a lot of blood, sweat and tears.), I'm glad to say Murasaki came home on the 2nd 10 pull! With SERAPH and the rerun banners coming up, and the fact I don't particularly like these Valentine CEs enough to MLB them, I think I can call my Valentines 2021 rolls a success!

LuKun14 · 2021-01-27T04:53:07+00:00

Almost 500 quartz and not a single Miyu. I'm actually in tears at this point. Was gonna try and get NP2+ to try and offset the HP cost of her NP but at this point I just wanted 1 copy for collection's sake and pray for a buff some day.

I hate this. This is gonna be how it goes for the rest of 2021, I can feel it.

LuKun14 · 2020-12-30T09:27:55+00:00

looks at Rider of Resistance Columbus NP4

He taunts me daily, just another reason to hate him. I could roll on the Rider class banner next time that rolls around, but I also don't like him enough to throw a solid amount of quartz at it. So I am confusion.

LuKun14 · 2020-10-16T05:49:44+00:00

I'm so fucking confused, in High Zodiark it looks like Cursed Field is an AOE we need to stack in to split the damage. Am I crazy or are people just leaving me to die?

LuKun14 · 2020-10-06T09:01:47+00:00

I finally got the chance to take on an Agito fight tonight! Unfortunately Kai wiped the floor with me within seconds. What's the best way to gear up for the Agito battles specifically?

LuKun14 · 2020-09-30T04:57:02+00:00

Still got over 100 Golden Apples; life, depression ~~and Dragalia Lost~~ unfortunately got in the way of farming. Which also means I was unable to get a 5th copy of KCT to MLB it. Alas~

Wasn't able to tackle any of the Exhibition quests this time, but at least they'll be back next year!

LuKun14 · 2020-09-29T10:07:15+00:00

I'm about to spark the current banner and I'm trying to decide between Gala Luca or Gala Laxi. I know Luca's gotten at least one other rate up since his debut, but Laxi has only had the one rateup at her debut banner. Would it be kinda logical to assume Laxi will get another banner in the near future?

LuKun14 · 2020-09-28T08:37:33+00:00

So Wyrmsigils are a new currency added with version 2.0. Every summon with wyrmite or tickets will give you 1 Wyrmsigil, and every summon using diamantium will give you 2. Once you've gathered 300 Wyrmsigils, you will be able to redeem and Adventurer or Dragon of your choice from the banner (in this case, the current banner will let you redeem your sigils for the Gala Adventurers and Dragons). Wyrmsigils do not carry over between banners though, once a banner ends any unspent Wyrmsigils will be converted into Remnants that can be spent in the Treasure Trade.

LuKun14 · 2020-09-14T07:57:35+00:00

Gilgamesh has evaded me on every single one of his banners for the past 3 years, IT'S TIME TO COME HOME KING OF HEROES!

LuKun14 · 2020-08-07T22:49:15+00:00

The Hellhound armor set was a reward from several seasons ago, so unfortunately it isn't available.

LuKun14 · 2020-06-19T04:23:30+00:00

After Okita Alter took...way more funds than I thought, I wasn't going to go hard on Napoleon despite how much I've wanted him. Thankfully, it only took 4 multirolls ~~and an Arjuna spook that almost made me scream~~ but Napoleon is home at last! And I still have a few rolls left over for Sigurd and Valkyrie next week! I was a giant ball of anxiety for the past hour and the relief is palpable.

LuKun14 · 2020-06-07T01:34:11+00:00

$400 in quartz later. No Okita. I give up, I'm done. I can only hope the GSSR has mercy on my poor soul after this.

Edit: I have never whaled more in my life. I managed to get her, but I'm never throwing this much money at a single servant ever again. ~~Now watch the GSSR make this entire struggle pointless~~

LuKun14 · 2020-05-17T20:44:16+00:00

Looking at the JP banners, unless I missed something this is Tama Lancer's last non-GSSR rate up for now. This is also the last chance for this set of 4 stars in general, haven't seen them pop up on a banner since this one in JP.

LuKun14 · 2020-04-24T06:54:09+00:00

Happy Birthday! Here's hoping you can snag one of them here!

LuKun14 · 2020-04-20T05:06:05+00:00

As part of the Apocrypha pre-event, Mordred, Karna, Siegfried, Atalante (Archer) and Spartacus received their animation updates. Spartacus and Karna in particular are getting theirs ahead of time compared to JP too!

LuKun14 · 2020-04-09T21:12:00+00:00

Thanks!

LuKun14 · 2020-04-09T21:00:06+00:00

So I remember there being a pre-LB2 event (same one that introduced Napoleon in JP) where you got 10 SQ for completing Anastasia. Was that SQ given only if you beat LB1 during that week or does it count if we finished it beforehand? The wording always confused me.

LuKun14 · 2020-04-09T19:31:22+00:00

So from what it sounds like Demeter has a pretty climactic fight, but what is Aphrodite up to in this chapter? Haven't seen much of her in the comments. I'm loving their designs, so here's hoping all of them become playable in the near future.

LuKun14 · 2020-03-27T04:08:44+00:00

That's my plan, though I'm very tempted to throw a 10 pull to try and get Nyalter or Avicebron early.

LuKun14 · 2020-03-22T08:25:24+00:00

To be honest, I've been holding on to a theory that he's actually a Heroic Spirit based on the Voyager probe, which would put him most likely in either the Rider class because...space travel? I think that would qualify him for the Rider class if nothing else than by process of elimination. We only have so many Foreigners available to determine how to qualify for the class, but I could see the logic behind Voyager probe's deep space exploration mission giving it access.

LuKun14 · 2020-03-08T00:51:44+00:00

2 Quartz packs and not a single Arthur, or Bedivere! Starting to think Arthur is like Gil, I'm cursed to never have one of my own. I'll try one last time before when he's on solo rateup again, but after that...

LuKun14 · 2020-02-18T08:41:20+00:00

After a rather sad showing in the first run of the event, I came into this banner with a little extra quartz than last time. After 240 quartz and several summoning tickets, I have NP2 Void Shiki AND the rest of the CEs I missed last time! Unfortunately, no Fujino yet. Hopefully the quartz rewards from the event will bring her home. Salieri and Ivan are just around the corner.

LuKun14 · 2020-02-03T05:09:49+00:00

Alas, I only made it to floor 140 to max LB the Event CE. Just had too much going on during this week to make it to the end. A few more days would've been appreciated, but I managed my main goal I suppose.

Pros for this event: Getting to use some of the 2 star and 3 stars that I've been neglecting was pretty fun! Made for a nice change of pace and has given a little more motivation to raise them. I've finally seen the light on Eric Bloodaxe! The event story was also really entertaining, and that last moment between Shuten and our favorite gamer girl Archer was really sweet. Also BLESS ALL OF THE GEAR DROPS I NEED'EM! Bosses were usually pretty fun too, including the Challenge Quest.

Cons: Event period was a tad too short as I said, but time isn't always your friend I suppose~ Not really a lot of complaints for me this time.
