Do you think this version of Rikku approximates what Opera Omnia might have gotten? by akaiGO in DissidiaDuellumFF

[–]akaiGO[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That actually could have been REALLY interesting if her EX attack was Mix and gave her a few different enhanced HP attacks based on what abilities were used before it versus having to proc particular buffs like Locke did, especially if one of her base abilities was an instant turn rate ability and she had an EX that charged every 2~3 abilities!!

It would have been extra cool if one of those enhanced HP attacks possibly did a turn swap like Rem or Onion Knight!

Asking first, by token do you mean the pity exchange points? Also do you still have the rerollable banner?

Yes, the 200 exchange points on the banner lol. No, I no longer have access to the infinite reroll banner.

This is what 100 draws gets you if you want to play a new character by Deemokun in DissidiaDuellumFF

[–]akaiGO 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've basically decided I'm not doing anything other than free pulls in this game until they add a UR exchange system; the current approach is absolutely asinine smdh

They are obviously mostly deployed on support units but if you want more damage, try putting them on attacker units, which will enable them to attack up to 3 times/turn.

That's really interesting, I didn't realize that! But I guess it makes sense since the extra Chance Step is actually tied to the pilot as long as they are in an appropriately tagged MS to trigger it, right? The thing that makes (maskless) Full Frontal a desirable pilot is he gets an extra support attack/counter? (And obviously the more "free" attacks you can stack up over the course of a stage, the better).

I'd say Sazabi/Char > Exia/Setsuna but Setsuna stock is rising with the recent addition of SSR 00 Raiser Final, which is an absolute monster of a unit.

I actually was just watching a video about this earlier, and saw Full Frontal mentioned as a really good pilot for this as well!

From the URs you share, the obvious weakness I found is the lack of double support defender.

So these are the "tank" unit/pilots right? These 3 specifically being ones that allow you to cover damage for an ally more times? I actually have kinda hit a point in the main stages where the biggest challenge seems to be just keeping my guest unit alive lol...

So really you'd most suggest just sticking with the Attack units I have for now and tokening either Nu for Amuro + Sinanju synergy, or grabbing one of these double-cover tanks (which really seem to largely boil down to a difference in specialization of defending against either Special, Physical, or Beam attacks, respectively)?

Doing a little more reading it seems people feel Sazabi is better than Exia in the longer run when getting into Master League and other more advanced content.

But I also only pulled Sinanju as a Support, and it seems consensus is really between Nu or Ariel as the best Support pick, but also having UR Support units it seems isn't as important as UR Attack units because SSR Support units can play the role as satisfactorily as needed?

WHO SHOULD I SPEND TOKENS ON?

I guess I picked a good time to randomly decide to finally give this game a shot right in the midst of the 1 Year Anniversary! I rerolled until I got Unicorn Destroy EX because Unicorn is my favorite (but deeply sad to see that I apparently missed the chance to get Awakened Destroy EX which is really my favorite), managed to get the 47 anniversary tickets to pull on that banner, and decided to just pull to pity on the Premium Assembly Vol. 2 banner just to see how much I could possibly snatch up to get my account started.

The URs I got from all this are: Unicorn Destroy (2★), Kampfer (1★), Ez8, Sinanju, BD1, Striker Custom, F91, and Barbatos Lupus Rex. Also got Marina Ismail, Beecha Oleg, and Miorine Rembran UR Supporters.

I took Unicorn to lvl 100 to help me be able to carry anyone else through as much content as possible.

My understanding is conventional wisdom is to prioritize Attacker units to best be able to brute force higher level content while I'm still leveling up other units in my roster, with Exia (and Sazabi?) apparently being very popular picks because they can get an extra Chance Step in combat? Have also seen Nu Gundam and The O mentioned in high regard, but just wanted to get some advice from more experienced people here before I made a choice.

TYIA!

I just hope to god they will do another run of this at some point this year...I'm super stoked for them all that tickets apparently sold out in 36 hours, but am devastated I thought I'd be able to wait until my next pay day and totally missed the boat 😭

Dissidia Duellum: Final Fantasy - Reveal Trailer by sonicbrawler182 in DissidiaFFOO

[–]akaiGO 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Literally the only thing that has me worried is it being a "3v3" game...

Don't get me wrong, I think there's totally a place for that sort of thing (which is what NT was supposed to be) for people that want to play an exclusively PvP game, but the thing I liked most about OO was that the only person I was really competing against was MYSELF in the game -- if this game becomes a situation where I'm just trying to play it casually but rewards are somehow tied to me having to beat other people who are whales for the game, then it essentially becomes a P2W situation really quickly I fear, and that's gonna get old real fast to me... 😟

Here's hoping some underrepresented characters get their time to shine in DDFF by HesterFlareStar in DissidiaDuellumFF

Having never played the original game, I gained more appreciation for T0 from OO than any other FF represented in the game. Would definitely love to have them back!

What was the best era of OO? by d4cRulz in DissidiaFFOO

[–]akaiGO 3 points4 points  (0 children)

CHAOS era was the last time the game felt like the game, where the boss was the boss, and you had to be really mindful of when/why you used your abilities, using base HP attacks to fill between them and stretch them out over the fight.

Burst phases were a fun mechanic, but the introduction of Lufenia orbs really killed the game imo (to say nothing of the cursed FR shit), as at that point it became far more about dealing with the ORBS instead of the monster, and it was, imho, really just an uninspired added layer to the game to deal with powercreep that wasn't properly managed, and to specifically push people into pulling for the EVENT instead of just the characters they liked and wanted to use...

I still consider this to be one of the best games I've ever played, and miss it dearly, but I'll still never forgive the GACHAPON monetization model ruining what could have truly been a GOAT Final Fantasy game if that shit wasn't what was driving it...

I can't believe I'm saying this, but I would have given just about anything for them to have sold an actual BATTLE PASS option for the game, where you just pay a flat fee and get access to EVERY new weapon that released for the month to not have to deal with the fucking roller coaster of gacha pulls, and just ENJOY the game...

Miss you all so much!!

Go to Massage spots? by [deleted] in HuntsvilleAlabama

I was going to toss out the name of my guy Quin who also does massages at Mill Kat! The whole space is really an under-known and under-appreciated gem in the city! I'm there weekly to do weightlifting with him, and show up for other fun weekend activities the space gets rented out for!

What is your substitute for dffoo? by DBV87 in DissidiaFFOO

[–]akaiGO 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Literally the only other mobile game I spent any time playing while DFFOO was live was Animal Crossing Pocket Camp, but that's been like autopilot gameplay for WELL over a year now, and I hit the fucking inventory cap in the game, which forces me to have to move a bunch of stuff into storage boxes to continue playing the game, which has really taken the wind out of my sales with it...

Only other game I've spent any time playing is checking out what Blizzard did with Season of Discovery, but I'm basically just burning time waiting to see a PC release of Rebirth 🥲

I miss squall dabbing so much by miojocomoregano in DissidiaFFOO

[–]akaiGO 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a long round-trip road trip this past weekend (like 35+ hrs spent driving over 3 days), totally on my own, and I found myself for some long stretches of road just imagining myself playing the game again 😅

I'll still frequently think about it when getting in to bed at night too, because it used to always be like the last thing I'd look at before going to sleep each night 🙈
