So is Emperor any good?

Was just looking myself, since I had done zero research on him.

Looks like down the road, enhancements make him strong over long fights, but he's worse than Exdeath and Dark Fina on normal fights since he has no native access to non-elemental spells.

His fire skill can get up to like 3000% damage though, after successive uses, and he can buff his own MAG by 100% and debuff your team and all enemies spirit by 50% later.

Probably fun for arena and trials, but not sure if he'd outdo Exdeath normally without wind-up rounds.

I like him in my case though, as I don't feel like bringing MAG buff characters with me all the time, so at least he can buff himself (at a cost to the team, sadly). It also makes 1 round KOs tough as he really needs time to shine.

Anyways, based on what I saw on the wiki and read on the JP version, those are my thoughts right now.

JP is setting the table for a meta shift. From physical DPS and DW units to DH, Magic, and Ailments. I think Emperor is good now but will be viewed as very good later as the aforementioned progresses

I know that is far in the future, but, doesn't everyone playing this game just play for the future anyway?

Guys, according to the banner info in-game, it says it ends 2/22 23:59 PST..... it isn't here a second week. At least if we're to believe what it says under the banner in-game.

Fuck Luka, this is Tilith time to shine, she is just warming up to break the meta in her 6*.

I knew I wasn't crazy, people have to pull if they want easy access to one of the best TMs of the entire game. Gumi is an evil genius.

Leon will still be there after the banner ends and the pool of 4* base units isn't super huge, so the chance of getting him may work out to being about the same as it is currently. Of course, who knows what the next batch of units will be outside of Olive. I'll get him eventually, so no rush for me.

I dunno if I'd call a banner "easy access". Lately these banners have spewed some of the bottom barrel shit units. I'm going on fact that I'll get them later. Because, realistically, I get them much later than the banner they tend to be on. I want Leon... but he's going to have to be an off banner pull.

Also, I just don't have the mages for ELT. I gathered what small, pathetic group I had, but it wasn't enough. Exdeath is my best but he can't solo that shit. If I had Emp or Dark Fina I imagine it would be an easier affair.

Should I sell off all of my candy now since I can't earn more of them? And can I only exchange candy at the mog king?

For a week after it finishes you can keep turning in any Candy for goodies left on him. Only sell them if you want NOTHING else on it or don't have enough to get what you want. Though buying the small items in beginning is a good way to build up stock.

Yes, only way to exchange Candy is with that greedy little, cavity ridden fur bag.

So glad about the crystal news. Even reasoning it through with Lyrian I still can't quite believe it. The daily was Guy and that's probably all I'll pull from this banner since Leon's TM doesn't really fit into my team. That means I'll never have a troll rainbow. Glorious day!

When you have two 10% materias that stack, does that mean you get 21% (1.1*1.1) or 20%?

EDIT: 2.0 version looks cool. Love the QoL changes.

Alright, I'll just sell off the 86 candy I got left.

Well, it wasnt hard. ELT clear with all achievements. No base 5, no tmr, Lyrian Exdeath friend!

Im uploading the video now. I really expect Lyrian analysis because if its true that i didnt lost control of the fight ever, i have serious calls in losing the no-death achievement.

I gotta see this to believe it. I just completed elt and the boss is so insanely tanky.

The only 4* I've chased before now was Luka, and that took me awhile. What are the rates for Leon? I don't want to burn through my whole stash for him, but his TM seems really good.

Oh man.. these UI changes are going to mess up my macro aren't they?

Broken clock is right twice a day, lol?

I was right on the crystal change is happening AND Marie was bumped up to make room for a new Global Exclusive 5*? Feeling better about my RL interview next week.

Heh, maybe I am heading into the right profession after all.


Even if the draw rates are still garbage for rainbows, the sheer number of true gold crystals will inflate power creep considerably on Global. I'm ok with this personally, especially if any rainbow will at least be a true rainbow for TM farming purposes.

You should give yourself more credit lol. Your thesis was sound. I was shocked they went the whole way but you convinced me at least the 4* change was happening. May I ask what profession you're attempting to go into?

Personally I welcome the inevitable power creep. I've said it a few times but the last time I felt challenged by this game was the plant trial, and I have no 5* bases.

That's right, you hand at 12 all day.

can somoene explain to me what is wrong with the current Crystal? and what will the NEW one improve on?

Ok

Current:

If you pull a gold or rainbow crystal, there's a chance that you will roll a 4 or 5-star version of a 3-star base (like pulling a 4* Maria if you get a gold crystal)

Future:
A gold crystal will always roll a 4* base (so Maria couldn't be pulled since she is a 3* base), and a rainbow can only roll 5* bases.

wow this is huge!

thanks for this and now I do understand the hype for it in this thread :)

We'll all be cursing this crystal update when it turns out it drastically increases the chances of getting a Blue, and cuts the chances of getting a Gold or Rainbow.
 
Like someone else said, troll golds are insanely common. Troll rainbows happen of course but not at the rate we get those fake ass 3* golds.

I'm curious about something, a long time back in this forum, someone mentioned getting trust moogles or trust moogle equivalents on a certain banner. Like you do an 11 pull and get bonus TM gaining things. They said they were also specific to certain TMs. My question is , are we coming up on this? I will seriously drop money if it means maxing out TMs.

I guess they just spend Trust Moogles on the units they like instead of farming for TM points?

Yeah, Trust Moogles or dupes on the TMs they want. You get basically 20% worth of moogles or so per event nowadays.if they farm TM points, it'll probably be manually.

The content isn't designed to require multiple a boatload of TMs, aside from like Aigaion, so folks are able to clear it with just a few important ones as they grow with the game.

To be honest, this is how I've been doing it. I just don't want to spend a whole lot of time doing TMR farming. I have one Dual Wield and going to have a Rising Sun in a couple of days (I hope). I'm just going to follow the plan you mentioned above and let the dominoes fall where they will. Too much work to do otherwise.
