Final Fantasy Brave Exvius |OT5| Our Golden Anniversary Brings Us Hope

Trying to get back into this game (and collect all the NieR characters...used all my tickets and snagged Eve and 210 so far), but I'm a bit overwhelmed.

Long story short, what's the best way to level up characters and upgrade their equipment?

Also if I were two get a duplicate of one character, and one is a 3 star and the other is 4 (as an example), an I supposed to feed the 3 star into the 4 star, or vice versa? Or does it not matter?

Raid coins can get you Cactuar Kings in the Raid Gacha.

That will the quickest way to gain levels right now?


Equipment? Farm TMs and do events.

This event eventually grants you a 105 ATK Katana.
 
I trounced the NieR INT raid but got creamed at ADV.

Should raising my levels take priority or equipment?

Ask for friend units that have Perfect Dodge characters

They can solo all levels of the raid

Try to build a DPS rush down team

Bring a breaker, Buffer and 3 DPS. Use carry friend summon

Just try to do as much damage as possible

Use friend units with massive stats to put a dent in ADV.

Easiest way for now. Leveling will happen on its own. Just raid it up.




Speaking of Raid and reading this thread. Should I pimp the shit out of Reberta and share her? Someone said she can go at it alone just by Jumping?

My Khaleesi hasn't been used in forever.

7500 lapis
49 tickets
1 ticket(4* star)
1 ticket (10+1)
10 ticket (ex)
1 ticket (ex 4* star)


Let's do this!

Unless something has changed, the 10+1 ticket and EX banners should have no featured units. New units do get added into the pool, but at standard rates.

I've been away from the game for a few weeks though, so maybe it's different now.


It has been confirmed on Reddit that they are in the ex and 10+1 ticket pool for the duration of the Nier banner.

Damn Tuffy, I woke up and immediately logged in to burn orbs and roll, and my first run through the raid I saw your A2. You're a madman, 1.1k attack and max level only hours from when the banner dropped. Used her and she was awesome

Thanks, I didn't know who I'd get, but assumed I'd pull at least A rainbow, so I had like 135 gigans in my inventory and a few kings too, used ALL my arena points, had 85 tickets (arena), and capped 1 to 100 (attack and some other stuff), and a 2nd is 6* with some attack~
 
So my current plan is just to TM farm with a macro when I can, sign in for the next few days to get the 10 +1 ticket and keep up with a few dailies. If I don't get anything to work it I'm deleting this game and focusing on games more worth my aggravation and time. This is getting stupid at this point. I shouldn't have to sink 100s of dollars into this game to feel like I'm advancing.

I wish I had the wherewithal to save resources like that.

I put up my Aileen for the time being for this raid. She's just so...boring. I also have a really hard time chaining with a second Aileen for some reason.

I'm going to work on getting my Dark Veritas, Orlandu, and A2 leveled up, hopefully with some Cactaur assistance from the raid summon.
 
Without Stop, besides dual-casting black magic, is there ANY way to hit a 100% evade unit twice for 999 with one character?

Magic abilities work

Like Ashes Heaven thingy

Umm single cast multihit spells like Toxic rain

But yeah you basically need to inflict a status, Death or magic

Use Setzers Slot with second knife. AoE Death does wonders

ALSO

Odin Esper summon is instant death attack as well. Dont forget that as an option if battle drags long




Also VANILLE DEATH BUILD

- Max her LB
- Equip Grappling weapon
- Equip Spear >>> Moogle Spear
- Aigion Arm
- and other materia gear that boosts LB. Kelsus TM, Jack TM, Rikku TM, Mog Materia, etc.....

You can get an 89% AoE death LB fast with the right setup

By Bye Max evade units

I use Ace's multi-hit beam and tank until I can summon Odin. Odin is the best way to deal with 100% units.

Magnification gestures solve all things. Though since the update I've been having problems with chaining even when I use that. There's seems to be some weird input delay with this game atm.

Edit: yeah this is kind of annoying. I dunno what happened but I cant chain at all with her atm :( guess I'll use Fryevia until they fix this.

I'll be pulling in 10k increments, did my first and got 2 gigan and a king, so we'll be ok within a day or two ;P... only trust moogle I pull and it's for who? oh ya B2 /eyeroll

Damn, what a day and it ended up being bittersweet.

I did my major pulls for this banner and I had over 85 tickets including EX tickets and 4* tickets. I also had a 10+1 that I had been saving up for a moment just like this.

In the end I walked away with one of all the Nier units EXCEPT 2B. Oh my god, I'm so disappointed about that. I even got A2, which is cool, but damn, man I really wanted 2B. The real sucky part is that I got two rainbows in all of those pulls. One of them was A2, which was nice. The other was fuggin' Rem! Rem? Ugh. For some reason, the RNG gave me almost every Type 0 character except Cise. I even ended up with 5 Nines. 5! I didn't even have one until today. Got a shit-ton of 210s, though. At least I got 9S, I guess.

Gonna have to do some spot pulls in the next two weeks to see if the RNG gods will let me have 2B. In the meantime, I'm gonna build up A2 and probably share her for the raid. Man, such a bummer this was, but I can't complain because I got everyone else.

Sharing my 787 ATK Fohlen for people struggling with the raid. Use Sonic Blast and/or pair him up with your own Fohlen for a pretty great raid strat. Enjoy!

First Rem?

I use her all the time. She is awesome and hits hard as hell.

Marlboro trial also gives a reward that's HP20%, MAG30%. Perfect for Rem.

My Tm farming has been going all whack since the update again. I found it asking me to "please log in again", in the Tactics Love banner, and the app completely closed. lol?

Is there a new error screen or something?

Well, I made it all of 4 hours without trying rolling again. did 3 more 10+1's and somehow got 2 more Rainbows. Both heart-breakers. While at least they're not dupes, I ended up with Knight Delita and Seabreeze Dark Fina. Funny thing, out of the 3 multi summons that I did, I only got 1 banner unit; a single 21O.

Going to hard stop pulling for today, I'm fairly sure my luck is done for the day and I don't want to push it.

Still would really like a 2B before this banner ends, though. Maybe I'll get lucky via tickets or something.

Between my 8 Eves and the 2 Raslers TMs that are going to be done this week I'm about to have a LOT of 30% hp materias all of a sudden. With that and my new pulls it's probably time to try Aigaon. I'm really looking forward to seeing what new strategies open up with him now that we have A2 and 2B in the game.

Yea I'm excited for this too. After I get A2 maxed out, I'm going to take her in there as my damage character. She can really use that fist weapon and mastery too, so it's totally worth it for me now.

Why bummed? OK is awesome. Well... he doesn't really start getting there til close to 6* cap. Worth the power through it though imho


Got my Black Cowl for Orlandu this morning. 961~ Not sure what much else I can do for him right now. Decided with SERAPH's second 5% Moogle (after first one finished off Cowl), I'd start working on God Save the Queen for Luneth. After this I may work on stuff for Yun.

Yeah I was looking at using all I had for him but constant feedback from Japan (= he's pretty bad) bummed me out and I'll just skip it.

By now I've got a wide variety of chain units to pick from and have also kinda just moved on to being more interested in TDH stuff.

OK has always seemed like a very bland unit to me, bland sprite, bland no-nonsense skillset, bland TM reward. It's all practical and he is prob still one of the better units for story events with his LB aoe def break, but I'd much rather be using other units.

Current banner unit is CG Lid who has a massive, useful, full break and is perfect for TDH setup, was hoping I'd get that.
