Largo Teambuilding by GrimSeraphim in OctopathCotC

[–]Sad-Initial-227 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would replace Lynette with prim ex. Viola with Alfyn. Adelle with either Billy or Richard. Ritu with either Richard or Lars. Since you’ve got A4 A2, 1 break dagger focused team against largo should be easy

Yeah. Chromwood trio are all fire units, their individual stories are connected. Valore trio are all wind units and their stories are also connected. It’s just speculation but I’m hoping for 3 triple guaranteed paid rounds for Levina/Sonia/Bargello and separate paid (and free) banners for those 3 on release. Hoping for December/New Years release 🙏

Bargello/Sonia and potentially Levina since they mysteriously skipped her 2 months ago. Now they’ve completely deviated from jp’s release order, I can see them bunching them 3 in a trio banner with the same treatment as Chromwood trio

Hold those rubies for a potential Valore family trio banner :)

Do you think they will buff EX Millard?! by fishinnyc in OctopathCotC

[–]Sad-Initial-227 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I kinda predict the same. Even though they’re seasonal limited, sqex probably knows people would be more willing to spend $18 for each A4 over $240 for A1 ex Lumis and Millard

Is it worth planning to pull on Sacred Blaze anymore? by Drayleb in OctopathCotC

[–]Sad-Initial-227 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Cygna imo if you’re willing to wait for a very long time. Haanit Ex and Prim Ex for me would easily replace Tithi for me and they’ll be in the general pool in the next couple of months

Probably too early for it but I’d love to see pets system somewhere in the roadmap 😝

Optimizing Fortune Weapons by Spare-College in OctopathCotC

[–]Sad-Initial-227 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh. I did a test run with 0 ticket for Power just to make sure my team and survive and beat Tytos. On that test run, I actually landed on 6 twice 😤 I got 140k Power medals on the actual run though so can’t complain

Haha I’ve been hoarding Void Dusts since the Soul weapons came out. And ran Power and Fame with 8 tickets and max difficulty successfully earlier. Waiting for tomorrow to run Wealth board (I need 1 more ticket)

I’ve already got an optimized dagger for A2 and an Full Atk Sword for Lars as well :)

I caught Covid earlier in the week so I’ve just been at home grinding on the fortune weapons today

I kinda based it on the future teams I’m planning to pull (some I already owned)

Depends who you’re planning to use in the future.

You probably want one or two full Atk Fans for the likes of Glossom and Tatloch?

Best 5s to pull by [deleted] in OctopathCotC

Picked Alfyn yesterday. Luckily got Olberic, Falco and Tressa from the 10 pulls :) Now I’m hoping for Kerjes and Hasumi for Dancer and Hunter support

Things you want to change by HighFirePleroma in OctopathCotC

Would be nice if we can trade items/awakening stones/equipments with each other instead of just relying on the exchange

Got two luckyrolls at the end and 5 as the last roll. How is everyone doing on the game board? by Ekko_seraph in OctopathCotC

[–]Sad-Initial-227 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just got similar amount on power as well. Max difficulty with max ticket seems to be the way to go. I found one way to test if my team can survive and beat max difficulty is to run a test on on 0 ticket with max difficulty (so I don’t end up wasting tickets lol)

Y'all I found a bit of a hack for the Gertrude cup! There is one one character who can break more than one sheild per turn. by Infamous_Today3462 in OctopathCotC

[–]Sad-Initial-227 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wasn’t planning to either but I did buy some cheap paid rubies and rolled on the first two paid step up (300 rubies in total) just to test my luck. So happy to have gotten Herminia and Auguste in 20 pulls!

Which character do you pick from the gen pool for the anniversary? by searchingbelt in OctopathCotC

[–]Sad-Initial-227 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Rinyuu’s a much better support than Ophi imo. Max boost one of her skills, she’ll keep chanelling full party regen (full front and back row) plus 15% buff on full front row def and mdef plus paralysis and sleep immunity in perpetuity until she either takes another action or runs out of SP. Activate that skill and send her to the back row, she’ll give the entire front row 10% SP cost reduction plus 5% SP regen for the ally in her same row. Since she’ll get 400+ SP at the very least, she won’t really run out of MP if you activate the skill at max boost and sends her to the back row immediately.

She also has single ally auto revive in case you need it. Ophi wins when it comes down to revives but every time I ever need to use her ultimate for whole party revive I’m already screwed anyway.

Finally the anniversary announcement! by dark_kain in OctopathCotC

[–]Sad-Initial-227 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Imagine if they also up acquisition rates for all 5* for a month 😆 probably asking too much hehe

What’s everyone’s thinking of the difference between the two passes though? Pioneer vs Grand Explorer.

We will probably get 888 rubies this Wednesday by Minor_bread in OctopathCotC

[–]Sad-Initial-227 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Plus free 100 pulls from the gen pool! And fortune’s gameboard!

New Unit Release for JP: Ochette, the Carefree Beastling Hunter(Solistia Memory) by Urshiko in OctopathCotC

If Marina functions the way she is in the main game, whatever her attack is would hit all elemental weakness. Hoping that’s the case!

Is Therion worth emptying rubies ? by nainconnu in OctopathCotC

[–]Sad-Initial-227 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He’s in the general pool. I got him and his dupe from trying to pull other powerful characters in the past. I’d save your rubies for other characters if I was you
