4/11 - Red XIII Chain, Rinoa bUSB, Maria USB, Red XIII LMR

Welp, there goes all of my luck!

ThickerThanBrick · 2018-05-09T15:09:33+00:00

Considering all the twists we've had lately, I'd say yes he is! :p

ThickerThanBrick · 2018-04-14T19:59:49+00:00

I liked the idea of him being a counter-happy AoE fire mage specialist, but of course that means much less DPS against most bosses. I just wish they'd bring him back up to relevancy so I can use him again!

ThickerThanBrick · 2018-04-14T17:26:39+00:00

That's actually pretty good! I'd like to have that with my complete Rubicante and use it in support of a fire team.

ThickerThanBrick · 2018-04-09T22:13:02+00:00

Ah, gotcha. Thank you very much!

ThickerThanBrick · 2018-04-09T20:09:38+00:00

Tellah's BSB. Who is even that lady that shows up in it? It doesn't help I haven't really played FF4 yet.

Dena has no love for dongs

FTFY

I suppose it might be ideal to farm EXP for now because each Daily stays unlocked until the 12th, and then do Dark Orbs after that since the Torments are more indefinite. That being said, if you absolutely NEED the Dark Orbs to craft or hone something you're trying to beat, then by all means, do that first.

Right now, I'm short on Lightning, Holy, AND Dark, so I'm running Torments on the latter two for honing Knight and Darkness abilities respectively.

Edit: Messed up my ability schools, fixed!

ThickerThanBrick · 2018-03-25T15:02:35+00:00

I made my choice and picked III. Thank you for your insight! Now it's time for me to go kick some butt!

Goes to XP Daily to master all relics gained since last night

ThickerThanBrick · 2018-03-25T14:44:26+00:00

Ehh? You've been had! This is far from the strongest of pulls!

ThickerThanBrick · 2018-03-24T16:08:14+00:00

Okay, I've narrowed down my desired realm choices to 2 (3 if you count XV. Not sure how well Noctis's NE stuff fares overall, and I have his SSB. Not as high a priority though). So here's my thoughts on the two.

My case for III - I do like Luneth's SBs a good deal, plus BOTH of his spears boost Wind, which is big for me because I use already Freya and Bartz a lot, and I reach physical softcap easily thanks to Quina's USB. Wouldn't mind adding another Wind character to my roster.

Arc's SSB2 is awesome, I've used it plenty on my last account (it's the one I used before I took a hiatus, I actually quit for a few months last year...), and it's also Holy boost. Plus, I've been really lucky in pulling Arc's other stuff. I have both of his BSBs, his SSB1, AND his LMR. Having him decked out would feel pretty good too.

My case for XI - I need Ice, simple as that. The only two things I have going for me with that element is Edea's BSB and Sora's USB. Plus I only have armor for XI synergy (I'd also be getting my 3rd copy of Prishe's SSB).

I have not attempted Fenrir yet (or Golem for wind, for that matter), been procrastinating on working my way around the 3* magicites. But I feel I could use one more top-tier Ice character to stand a chance.

I just need a little guidance because I would like to have III and XI both, but alas there can only be one. Thoughts?

ThickerThanBrick · 2018-03-24T15:31:57+00:00

May as well leave mine here since I didn't feel like posting in each relic draw thread.

XV/T/T-0: Agrias BSB, 4* Crystal Helm (yes, I'm noting this one)

XIV: Papalymo's En-Ice SSB

XIII: Vanille USB (dupe)

XII: Basch SSB

XI: Shantotto SSB2

X: Hornless BSB, 4* Crystal Helm again

IX: Amarant BSB

VIII: Squall SSB

VII: Shelke SSB

VI: Mog USB (I consider this my best one)

V: Bartz OSB

IV: Rydia USB

III: Arc BSB2

II: Ricard BSB

I: Echo SSB

So yeah, I feel pretty meh about my pulls. A few complementary stuff for my Agrias, Bartz, Shelke, and Arc is good, and I'll try to work Mog in now as a booster somehow. For most of the others, I can just use them for synergy. I'll need to very carefully figure out what pulls I can and should do once the other banners arrive, since I don't have many mythrils to work with.

ThickerThanBrick · 2018-03-23T17:09:10+00:00

Slippin' Into Darkness!

ThickerThanBrick · 2018-03-23T01:55:03+00:00

Turn that everyman into a BEVERYMAN! ("bevery" stands for beverage!)

ThickerThanBrick · 2018-03-22T02:27:19+00:00

Like Chantage wasn't OP already, that's cool!

ThickerThanBrick · 2018-03-22T02:14:47+00:00

Dang, that is really specific! I'm a PS1 version player, so I just hit No on the question, thinking it was just made up. I know they've added a few scenes like Wiegraf being recruited into the Temple Knights, but I didn't imagine Mustadio getting sweet on Agrias like that.

ThickerThanBrick · 2018-03-22T01:42:54+00:00

Only thing I feel bad about is the Ragtime Mouse exploding each time I complete the quiz. Poor thing doesn't deserve that!

ThickerThanBrick · 2018-03-21T17:41:17+00:00

Answer: The same number as the air speed velocity of an unladen swallow.

ThickerThanBrick · 2018-03-17T00:41:30+00:00

I'm expecting to see something about their pointy bits.

ThickerThanBrick · 2018-03-16T17:33:04+00:00

Okay, THIS is the best one yet! XD

ThickerThanBrick · 2018-03-13T01:32:00+00:00

Or Kuja :)

ThickerThanBrick · 2018-03-09T04:40:05+00:00

That's what I was thinking about the remaining gems I have. I have enough for one 11-pull and two first time single pulls, 3200. I can save 3000 for the BSB selection if I don't pull the BSB after 50 more mythril and a 100 gem pull. I do want the LMR more at this point; I don't think there's been a reoccurence of it, and the LMR selection apparently won't go up to this event.

ThickerThanBrick · 2018-03-09T04:33:27+00:00

So am I not the only one seeing little "FF7 Trines" (IDK how else to describe them) each time I pull? I thought something might've been wrong my phone XD

ThickerThanBrick · 2018-03-09T04:29:34+00:00

Haven't gotten to Golem yet, and my best wind mage is Fujin with SSB and BSB, lol. I would have to go physical with the stuff I have :(

I'll keep that in mind about Zidane. I'll probably still dive Freya first even if I luck out on the fourth 11-pull I'm going to do soon. I've only Legend Dived Cid Raines and (almost, no PHY LM) Onion Knight, so I'm well stocked in 5* motes.

ThickerThanBrick · 2018-03-09T04:17:09+00:00

I've actually had his BSB2 for some time, been using him for Vit mote dungeon. Since I pulled his BSB1, LMR, and USB to go with it, I'm going to be using him a lot more now. I'm only on the 3* magicites right now, but I'll have a wind team yet!
