It's so nice having an arena team completely separate of my trial/event teams, in both units and TMs.

My Arena team is now

-Noctis (Blizzard flask)
-Amelia (Riccochet)
-Dark Fina (Dual Cast Thundaga)
-Rem (Status immune, Dual Cast Thundaga - unless hit with status moves, then her AoE Curaja+Esunaga skill)
-Setzer (Cursed Card)

Haven't lost a single round. In theory, the only thing that can really kill me is a full DPS round of a team's best AoE skills, which they (luckily) never seem to do. Last time I lost was a few weeks ago when I got double Phantom Shadow'd into Greg's AoE def ignore skill by some random team.

Really enjoying this low-maintenance Mog King event. Hope they're all like this in the future.

Anyone think there will be a new banner this week? I'd be surprised if there is.

I always heard WoL was coming at the end of the month so no surprise he's not this week. What's this about him being on the banner though? That would work as a plan to cock up the FFX banner and keep us all from getting Rikku, and it'd be less blatant than making Wakka a 4*. "But you all asked for WoL so much, so now we're giving him to you! /trollface"

That adventurer +4 materia from the explorations is so freaking suspicious. I suppose they could just give everyone one and try to level the playing field a bit, but I suspect it'll be the equivalent of the exceed ring: theoretically possible to get but not in any practical sense.
 
So is this Expedition thing just like Japan's TM chocobos farm thing? Minus getting tm percentage that is. Low effort set it and forget it rewards? Is this truly a global exclusive as it says?

I doubt we'll have a third Warrior of Light banner. And I definitely don't expect to see some random FF10 FF1 collab banner lol.

What, we will already be able to get the Raven Manteau pretty soon? But I'm missing SO MUCH keys, gotta go back to get everything *-*
I'm on Aurora keys but only did the required ones so far.
(EDIT : nevermind someone clarified it's still far away)

For people who don't know what it does :

Xon's ability is +50% only (and I don't have Xon T-T)

I'm still confused about this. Does that ability mean that if an enemy, say, CAN drop either a beast meat or a heaven's ash, +100% would guarantee the heaven's ash? Or does it force it to drop both? Or am I misunderstanding this entirely?

Also, does this have any effect on Awakening dungeon with Holy/Sacreds? I never really read a definitive answer on it.

Alt daily: Cinque the fucking waste of space

This gold or higher shit banner is bullshit. Karl and Seria aren't even that good anyway, why the hell are they gold? Plus, pulling a gold on banner is like winning the lottery already.

No bonus units blows. Maxwell's trial can't come soon enough. Hopefully I can actually pull off summoning Diabolos this time. -_-;

Each ennemies has 2 loot table, one "normal" and one "rare", for example T3 and T4 crysts in the Chamber of Gems are on the "rare" loot table so it means more of them with this.
If a monster has tons of items it's still RNG.
 
So I have been rerolling a JPN account for a few hours, and I can see the increased rainbow rate for sure. Right now you start with 5500 Lapis 8 tix and a free 11 pull, and I have had at least 1 rainbow almost every time. I want CG Fina, and a good DPS before I stop though. I keep pulling effing mages.

Do have a question, how do yall run JPN accounts? Nox? Just something I've always wondered.

You can get it through Qooapp (available on the app store) Then you can run it on any device you can play global on.

Got my first Karl today. Had stopped doing dailies but figured with a new story update coming I should hit the 5k for the guaranteed rainbow pull. Glad I risked it. Extra bonus unit and seal of destruction is a nice TM.

I have it on Nox, and an old Android phone. I just installed Tunnel Bear VPN and made a Japanese Google account to download it on both. Once it's downloaded you can get rid of the VPN.

I have Japanese iPad and iPhone still. Sadly, I'm running English versions of the games on them. Because my IP is in Japanese.. if I made a Japanese Apple account, yall think I could download the JPN one on my iPad too? Or does it only allow one BE per device?

Edit: Because brain dead today. Though I might have a JPN apple account i don't remember
 
I'm contemplating building my second Tilith and using her as a team buffer. The biggest thing I'll miss in replacing Refia with Tilith is Embolden's 5-turn duration. However, with two Tiliths I can use one for full healing every turn while the other does Celestial Light every other turn and a Rainbow Veil / Affectionate Aura in-between. A second Tilith would also be nice on turns when Prism Heal or Goddess's Revelation is needed.

I'm thinking a team like this could work:
Tilith 1: Healer
Tilith 2: Buffer
Tank (Cecil / WoL)
Breaker (Ling / WoL 2)
Noctis

I usually bring a friend Orlandeau along, since Noct has Excalibur and benefits from the Holy Imperil. This team's biggest drawback is, obviously, that I don't have any chainers. I suppose I'd boot Noct if I ever get one (or when Enhanced Agrias hits global in 5 years, lol).

Thoughts?

The global version and JPN version are different apps so you can have both.

Exactly what i'm doing, though i have a german iphone with an canadian, us american, phillipian, swedish, japan and german account. No Problem switching between the accounts. Sometime the creation is rough cause of payment method. Most of the time it is enough to lock out of your id, click a link directing to a free app in f.e. swedish itunes and you can creates a swedish account without choosing a payment method.

There are 0 Problems running global and jpn be on the same device.

Cool beans, thank you guys.

Just imagine come patch days its going to be irritating having to swap accounts. That and on homeshare, so not sure if it's going to drop that soon as I go to make a JPN account. (Really would hate having to link that up everytime.)

Made sure to catch up with keys since I knew Apocalypse (103 atk Greatsword) key was close...and equip knuckles.

With upcoming 145 atk robo knuckles, +50% atk knuckle mastery, +30% atk Yun's armor and champion's belts it'll be worth to have equip knuckles materia+all that on pretty much any unit.
 
Just curious would it work if I download FFBE through QooApp if they have it on there or so you still need a VPN? I always go the lazy way and use QooApp for Dokkan Battle since it handles updates for me too. Any ideas if FFBE would work in the same hassle free way?

Edit: Found it on there! Works the same way it seems too, no VPN needed.

Whats the team for? Trials? I used to do this kind of theorycrafting a lot, but most of it was wasted time. The hardest contents are usually trials, and they usually always have some sort of gimmick that forces a character/set of characters in your party, so it's tough to stick to a main team. This sounds nice for general mitigation/slow damage type stuff though. Might also want to build a 1RKO team of full buffing/damage too. I always keep one of those around for grindy events and bosses.

Haven't tackled dling the JPN one yet. Doing work. Because I should stop putting it off. Ugh. But is there a different way to reroll on JPN one? I thought I remember hearing to reroll was some backwards way. But then again maybe I'm thinking of FEH or something.

You have to use 2 devices, at least I haven't figured out a way to do it with 1. But you make a password on the first one and it gives you the transfer ID and password on a screen. Go to the other device and input that stuff in the menu, and it transfers and you can restart the other fresh. It's definitely more tedious than the Facebook thing, but in the end a better system.

Edit: Just had a reroll with Orlandu and Flame Veritas, but no CG Fina :( That would have been a perfect starting team.

I was actually gonna reroll until I hit that barrier. Not got a second device :/

Got Eiko but would have preferred Waifu Fina. Eh, may set up my emulator I guess. I kinda like the GLB way since I could just chill on the sofa at least lol

Same.

Thank you for letting us know. I knew there was something different about it.

While I could use my phone, I just don't know if I want to bother. I'd love to play around in the JPN version, but seems like a lot of damn work, again, for it. Ah well. Will stick to GL I guess.


Alkez, dunno to be honest. Just been something I've thought about for a while jumping into. One at least work on my Japanese since.. well it's fading. And two just because.
 
Is now a good time to start a JPN account or something?

/shrug You get 2 11 rolls and 8 tickets to start which is nice, but I am only doing it because I refuse to refill on this event because of how much currency I am getting and should be able to get everything with no effort so I have nothing to do in game for hours. Figured why not.

Ooo, interesting. How long does this "offer" last for? Might try this tomorrow.

I've never really thought about it before because GL just takes up so much of my time, but I was talking to my friend about my TM list and I'm getting close to the end of the "core" TMs I need. After that it'll be random optional extras, and if I get Rikku my team is not going to change now for some time. So now would be a good time for me to try JP.

I hope you are all ready for the news spam we will get tomorrow, do we expect a new banner this week?

I'm going to say yes. I honestly believe we all got baited today, and tomorrow is going to be FF1 banner announcement (even though I said their won't be a third WoL banner earlier today lmao). I don't know what else their could be, and it's a banner that doesn't require an event (I think?).

Would have guessed Dark Destroyer part 2 for Maxwell trial but then we already got the news about new awakening.

Personally, I'm unlikely to really play it since I can't read it at all and this game is a bit harder to coast by on the JPN with no understanding of the language than others. Instead I'll just be using it get the pulls out of my system when the urge to tank my mains resources arise or kill time when my main has no NRG.

This sounds nice for general mitigation/slow damage type stuff though.

Noctis + Cecil + DC Refia have been the cornerstone of every single, non-arena, team I've used since pulling him last year. I unsure if I can handle the Echidna or Ultros trials yet, but I've beaten everything else the game has thrown at us.

The main reason for the post is because Tilith should be a great upgrade over Refia. However, I couldn't figure out a way to make up for the loss of 45% ATK/DEF from Embolden. Tilith has a 40% all stats buff skill, but it only lasts for 2 turns vs Embolden's 5. It doesn't seem possible to have her be both the healer and buffer in tough content all by herself. Then I pulled a second Tilith and had the idea of using both.

I also want to figure out how to use my new Delita and will be pulling for Rikku, so who knows how much use this proposed team would actually get. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯


Might also want to build a 1RKO team of full buffing/damage too. I always keep one of those around for grindy events and bosses.
I only have 2 rainbow units: Noctis and Delita. I don't own any strong chainers and my only strong finishers are Noctis and Firion. The majority of my damage always comes from Noctis and my friend unit, so I've never been able to make a 1-turn KO team. :/

Hit the 2nd tab on the summoning page. That takes you to things like the EX summon, Arena Summon and whatnot. First one is a free 11 right now.

Whelp. That was easy enough. Just put my old JPN address for signing up for an apple account. It's a good thing I remember how my Japanese teacher phoenetically pronounced my name and all. Made signing up a breeze.

Well, if we ever get WoL 6*, he's got 5 turn Embolden in his regular kit, so that solves that Refia issue for you (and me - c'mon Gumi).

You'd be surprised what you can get out of 4* bases now for chaining teams. 2 6* Chizuru or Setzer are great chaining bases and Firion can be an absolute monster finishing. Throw in Tilith or enhanced Mercedes for buffs, and you have a pretty solid pure DPS team.

I realize that's a fair amount of enhancements, but still, very possible and viable.

Your team idea out of the box looks great for the longer trials though, like March of the Beasts etc.

I'll reroll a few times, if it gets boring I'll just unistall and forget I ever thought about having fun about rerolling for the sake of reroling lmao.
