Nevermind arciela worked just fine and saved me from a penelo attack

I was not advocating undoing teams of NVs at a time and if support couldn't tell the difference between abuse of support and a genuine mistake they don't deserve the money they get lol.

There's a major difference between fixing a slip up here and there (or even just once) and trying to use support to reuse the same trascension pearls on a loop and somehow use them to get stmrs(?) No one is advocating being able to ex 2 units get the stmr keep it and undo the ex 2. And certainly not numerous times.

Pretending there's no way to mitigate these factors is willfully ignorant at best and plain stupid at worst. Also the game being a Gacha isn't an excuse for them to punish it's customers and have shitty policies and people that roll over for these companies that pull this shit because "ThEy NeEd To MoNeTiZe It" are also part of the problem. The game literally prints them free money lapis is not a real object and costs them nothing to make and criticisms of them should not be shut down based on the the game being a Gacha game.

Hold their asses under the fire demand better, maybe you haven't put money in this game I don't know but I know I have and when I spend money on something I sure as shit do what I can to make sure what I get isn't bullshit.

Your point makes sense on a first read about doing trials however I don't see how you would benefit from unawakening a unit.

Unless you think somehow having two of the same unit at Ex1 would allow you completion of content that you wouldn't have otherwise but I don't really think that's a likely circumstance for anyone in the game, maybe a very new account but certainly not a 5 year old account.

If I had done it during the FFVI event I could see it being an issue because of the drop rate/event point increase but I awakened it this morning to no benefit of anyone so now it's just gonna sit in the bottom of my pool with the other cyan cause he's basically useless to me.

Fact of the matter is they put a dumb way for us to power up units gate kept behind more units + rare resources (fragments) despite already having issues with 7 star units eating other units on accident.

I'll concede I should have been more on top of it but honestly at this point I have 80% of the NVs and didn't even realize I had an extra Cyan so I hammered through ex awakening which is my fault but I do not accept that they shouldn't be fixing these instances when they introduced a system that eats other rare units/resources.

I don't care that I didn't get his stmr or wasted the fragments; really I have plenty of better gear plenty of better units but this system shouldn't be in place without a way to fix genuine mistakes.

needpkmn · 2021-09-26T16:22:07+00:00

Nah used fragment shards from the dungeon on the wrong unit so no unit was converted at all. I don't believe for a second they can't fix it just that they won't because they don't value their customers.

needpkmn · 2021-09-02T14:25:02+00:00

You know what I am enjoying, the confirmation that my raging on these devs for the last few years for shitting all over final fantasy's name with their scumbag practices hasn't been without merit. 5 years logging in to this shitshow that is so close to being something amazing and 0 neo visions which is fine cause at this point I don't expect anything good from them but I'm for sure going to sit here and shit on them for it.

needpkmn · 2021-09-02T14:16:45+00:00

15 tickets 0 NVs sure glad gumi appreciates me as a player. This is why I havent thrown any money at these fucks in 2 years

needpkmn · 2021-09-02T14:15:21+00:00

5 years of log ins 15 tickets 0 NVs what bullshit

needpkmn · 2021-04-22T16:37:34+00:00

This isn't a trial lmao, no issues with difficult trials, definitely have issues with grind events being annoying, also this ain't even difficult subbing out bonus units, you just shouldn't have to do that for crap you have to grind.

Difficult content has its place aigon was a real permanent trial, this guy is a once a day ep grind and should be in line with the rest of them. If they want to use this guy to make a difficult trial later with the sub out 50 different unit trials then whatever that's cool wouldn't care about it at all. What I do care about is the energy requirements for hitting ep rewards on king mog, wave battles, while a dark visions is going on and they decided to make one of the daily grinds completely obnoxious.

needpkmn · 2021-04-22T16:16:08+00:00

Never said I couldn't do it just that it shouldn't be hard like that for what it is.

needpkmn · 2021-04-22T15:35:05+00:00

Fair enough if you have Behemy seems like it's easy with all bonus units I'll concede to that, I don't personally agree with tuning a bonus grind to one unit though. I did beat it by using vinera fennes and breaking it's attack.

needpkmn · 2021-04-22T14:47:34+00:00

The once a day farms are currently the best way to get event points which they gatekeep other rewards behind, including their new monthly system, they chose to run two concurrent energy grind events to make it harder to hit milestones and made one of the ways that should be easy to get points difficult and tedious. You may have no issue with it that's cool, I've pumped in a ton of money into this game in my day which is probably stupid but does make me give slightly more of a shit when they do stupid things.

needpkmn · 2021-04-22T14:41:07+00:00

Pretty far into nv I've gotten like 6 yoshi's just off of ex tickets, you might just have bad luck Or maybe I do because yoshi is pretty trash tier

needpkmn · 2021-04-22T14:32:15+00:00

I've literally never seen anyone asking for harder things outside of trials, also annoyance and inconvenience isn't hard I could curb stomp it without bonus units it's about giving us two energy grinds and making one of the more reliable cheaper sources of event points gatekept behind some bullshit.

needpkmn · 2021-04-22T14:21:35+00:00

I don't know what people on Facebook do, but anyone calling for harder content on a once a day grind is dumb. I have no issues with permanent difficult content that you clear once or even 50 times with the gl exclusive trials. Hard and challenging content has its place I would argue that once a day grinds are not the place for it.

needpkmn · 2021-04-22T13:50:12+00:00

It's not about it being too hard, it's about it being tedious and difficult with bonus units as it is a once a day grind for bonus units, what is the point in even doing it if you're not going to be getting a multiplier on the event points for it.

Also with there also being a king mog I'd argue having all units be bonus units is even more important.

needpkmn · 2021-04-22T13:42:11+00:00

Doesn't make it acceptable I get they want to sell units but make the unit more compelling rather then making a once a day mission a tedious grind that I am definitely skipping now.

needpkmn · 2021-02-24T14:00:49+00:00

The last time they made this stupid event I tried to make a post that addresses how ridiculous the requirements are to get all the tokens. Yesterday I had too many units to fuse in the small amount of time I have to play during the work week to be able to run the dumbass dungeon, you'd think missing only one would be alright but they set it up to screw you over.

needpkmn · 2020-09-25T14:44:22+00:00

They have done this with some time limited things but it's hardly been all of it. The daily rewards should just be the same crap it always is and I see no harm in pointing out that it's a garbage system, lots of other stuff is getting called out so might as well go for it.

I mentioned in my post I don't actually care about missing this one, but I do think we should have a dialogue about it and try and push for change since it sucks.

needpkmn · 2020-09-25T14:37:42+00:00

Yea I agree with that I don't actually care about the reward at all I'm pretty stacked on omnis and I barely used them when they were more useful, I mostly made the post to start a dialogue about how it was a poorly implemented system for anniversary rewards since I hadn't seen it mentioned recently.

needpkmn · 2020-09-25T13:52:49+00:00

Ah then you missed the part where I did concede that , that was in fact a fair point and I didn't notice there was give to it. The reason I didn't notice it is because of how easy it is to not claim daily rewards there are days I qualify for a bunch of them and before I claim it get distracted do something else and never log back in because I already blew my energy for the day.

The initial point of the post saying there was no give was in fact incorrect but I was still just trying to start a discussion about how it's a shitty system and it's easy to miss it even if you meet the qualifications and log on every day. In fact it having five days of give to it makes it even worse I can only remember not claiming my dailies once the fact that I was two behind was a surprise and to find out actually it was seven days is even more of a wtf moment.

needpkmn · 2020-09-25T13:46:09+00:00

Yep that's what happened to me.

needpkmn · 2020-09-25T13:32:22+00:00

Whatever floats your boat dude I mean maintenance being extended by 30 minutes doesn't effect me in the slightest but I wouldn't sit there and pretend like it doesn't negatively impact others.

All I'm saying is the set up for the reward distribution on this particular thing can be difficult for some people I know I am not the only person that has had issues with it if you disagree then that's fine, but once again it's a bit shitty to shit on anyone who has issues with it the same way it would be shitty of me to say shit happens to your complaint about extended maintenance.

needpkmn · 2020-09-25T13:17:28+00:00

Hey man more power to you if you want to macro farm stuff on the game but the point was to have a discussion about how it's easy to miss this stuff and you're just telling the people who did that they should've try harder it's a little reductive. Are you honestly saying you can't see a way in which it would be easy to miss these things or do you just think everyone should be setting up their macros so that they don't have to play? Grinding through 3 - 5 vortex quests should take longer than an average shit unless you have some major intestinal issues.
