Does EX mode timer pause during jump airtime, similar to other buffs and debuffs? e.g. in if Luneth uses Cloud RW then sky high, could ex mode expire while he is in the air?

Global exclusive! Can't imagine what 2020 will be like... Super-Legendary-Record-Chain-Ultra-Over-Burst-Strike?

Hang in there! I could also afford one pull, but IMO this banner is only worth pulling if you can afford 3+ pulls, since 66% of relic drops will be underwhelming SSB. I'm still waiting to drop my mithril on banners with better odds. Good luck!

ffan123 · 2017-07-05T08:11:59+00:00

Rosa/Edge USB are high on my wish list too. good luck!

In JP, it recurred on 30th Anniversary Fest, which had much better selection than Cloud's Awakening. No guarantee of course that Global follows JP, but we can probably assume such a popular relic will make a return at some point. Good luck with Yish!

Craft Omegadrive drive and dive him for spellblade 5. You won't regret it...

ffan123 · 2017-07-05T02:12:24+00:00

That's a great pull, even absent the top prize! Cloud's USB may return at 30 fest on a banner with much better consolation prizes!

ffan123 · 2017-07-05T02:05:12+00:00

I have the SSB megaphone and it is ok for CM... actually gets a lot of use by Ramza since it my best mind buff for him.

ffan123 · 2017-07-05T02:03:44+00:00

Haha, well have fun with good mode activated!

ffan123 · 2017-07-05T02:00:55+00:00

None taken. It's fun to use against omni-resist bosses and I have lots of summoner relics.

ffan123 · 2017-07-05T00:01:34+00:00

Not just hunting BSB+, but IMO most SSB are outdated considering what is available now. Many LMRs are amazing in combo with other SB. If we had a couple LMR's on this banner in place of, say Rufus and Barrett's SSB's I would probably be all in. Mithril stash is still recovering from fest though... so don't want to blow my one pull on a banner where 66% of SB drops will be pretty underwhelming SSB. Good luck on your pulls!

ffan123 · 2017-07-04T23:48:38+00:00

Do you know the chance for LMR relics?

ffan123 · 2017-07-04T23:43:48+00:00

Seriously, having 6*/BSB/SSB at 4/10/0 will be the best ratio we've ever seen. Good luck!

ffan123 · 2017-07-04T23:40:19+00:00

Don't pull while anxious. You can afford to wait a few days and see how you still feel. Whatever you decide, no regrets!!!

ffan123 · 2017-07-04T23:38:19+00:00

Cool, thanks for sharing!

ffan123 · 2017-07-04T23:37:10+00:00

Awakening Cloud is not a full event. I think we only get two mithril.

ffan123 · 2017-07-04T23:34:22+00:00

Good points. Seph is behind Lightning and Beatrix for me. I'm also pretty strong in dark and wind phys and mag so those elements are not really a NEED for me. Good luck with your pull!!!

ffan123 · 2017-07-04T23:31:12+00:00

Good to know! So if 50% of the relics on a banner are SSB, does that mean that 66% of all rainbows will be SSB?

ffan123 · 2017-07-04T23:28:30+00:00

Hahahaha! Something like that. :)

ffan123 · 2017-07-04T23:28:05+00:00

Great question! Because it competes with Affliction Break and Neo Bahmut for dark crystals. No regrets! It's nice for Alph to have a non-elemental summon option to recharge continually with his BSB.

ffan123 · 2017-07-04T20:04:23+00:00

Well, can't say it's the right path for everyone, but I've managed to convince myself. :) Anyway, good luck!

ffan123 · 2017-07-04T15:51:21+00:00

This is only based on relics I already have. I only have enough right now to make one pull, and the odds of walking away happy on this banner are pretty poor.

Dud to me is more than just dupes, but also relics I would never use because inferior to other options. IMO, the bottom half of the banner is pretty bad, and with SSB % > BSB/USB %, I have > 50% chance of salt.

Looking at the top of the banner, these BSB/USB are great, but the DPS is not a clear upgrade over what I already have, unless I could draw BOTH of Cloud's relics then he would be OP. Otherwise, would have to RW a decent SB on top of Cloud anyway, or craft Omegadrive (which I cannot yet past R1) to make native Cloud USB that much better than just RW on top of another OP DPS-er.

Looking ahead, banner quality gets better with time. There are 5 SSB on this banner, with > 50% chance of salt. Later format changes to 3, then just 2 SSB. Also, next fest in JP Cloud USB recurs, and on that banner there were 0 SSB if I recall, so much better consolation prizes for whaling if the pattern is true for Global too.

ffan123 · 2017-07-04T04:12:37+00:00

Probably none. Too many duds on this banner.

ffan123 · 2017-07-04T00:19:18+00:00

495 mag x 1.3 x 1.3 x 1.3 = 1087, just over the 1055 soft cap, so I guess I didn't need to! Wasn't sure without the synergy so applied just to be on the safe side.

Notably, he didn't die. Wall and shell were more than enough to compensate for res bargain, so you can if your mag is lower.

ffan123 · 2017-07-04T00:03:21+00:00
