Type Zero Mog King event as predicted. I think I just want the tickets, quartz, and moogle. Looking at my resources I don't particularly need the mats. I have no one to level with Gigantuars atm and I don't have the room to store them. Won't be pulling on the banner so will try to do the bare minimum.

 

[Andvary]

Basically there has been 2. Both obviously contained units that were available only limited time.

- Fencer 3*
- Karl 4*

No love for +%ATK over 10% :/

Fencer was also 4*

 

[KeRaSh]

Rewards seem underwhelming. Will try to get the basics (Moogle, cheap 6* mats, tickets, SQs, etc.) without having to pull on the banner for bonus units. Hopefully I can easily kill the Duplicorns to farm the currency. I'm not too worried though.
Gilgamesh, Noctis, Lightning, Exdeath and Cecil should be able to handle it.

 

[Rixa]

Fencer was also 4*

Oh damn, so it seems. Even more screwed with ATK % materias :/

Doublicorn does 2 x 9999 attacks each turn

 

[Kouriozan]

Oh damn, Eileen getting enhancement before Orlandu (From Reddit)

Analysis: +30% ATK & 50% Physical Damage vs 機械系 & 50% Physical Damage vs 石系
+1: HP Up, Damage Increased (Large)
+2: Spear Mastery

Recover Oil: AoE ~1150 HP Heal w/ 8x Mod split over 3 Turns
+1: Recovery Up (Extra Large)
+2: LB Gain Rate Up

Piledriver: 200% ST 5 Hit Physical Attack + Ignore 50% DEF & ST 3 Turn -50% Earth Resist
+1: Damage Up (Medium)
+2: Hit Count Up (Small), Earth Imperil Improved (Large)

Her healing getting AoE high tide and Piledriver getting even stronger, this is gonna be good!

And here's Luka's

+1: HP Up
+2: Recovery Up (Small)

Secret of Mana units getting extra buffed with enhancements, I would have whaled so hard for them T-T

Banner with 5* only?

You get EX points buying Lapis and can use them in Exvius summon.
(in before wait for this update before buying Lapis)

 

[Valentus]

Eileen with enhacements Will have +110% atk of passives

Goddamn

Goddamn

Yeah I was just thinking that lol.

Please rng be on my side for once haha.

Edit:

Analysis: +30% ATK & 50% Physical Damage vs 機械系 & 50% Physical Damage vs 石系
+1: HP Up, Damage Increased (Large)

Piledriver: 200% ST 5 Hit Physical Attack + Ignore 50% DEF & ST 3 Turn -50% Earth Resist
+1: Damage Up (Medium)
+2: Hit Count Up (Small), Earth Imperil Improved (Large)

In both cases does large likely mean they will go to 100%? If so that's pretty crazy, 100% earth debuff and 100 on the 2 killer perks.

Hit count small I will assume is 7, and damage medium is like 250-300%.

 

[SeanTSC]

Doublicorn does 2 x 9999 attacks each turn

But how much HP does it have?

Hopefully I can just one-round it with Refia doing Embolden, Elza debuffing, and my 2 Noctis + friend Noctis warp-break chaining it. Plus uh, whatever 5th unit I bring doing something.

 

[The Silver]

Doublicorn does 2 x 9999 attacks each turn

So you're saying I should use Snow

 

[KeRaSh]

Doublicorn does 2 x 9999 attacks each turn

Like you said, Cecil Provoke + Mirage Vest while the rest goes nuts.
How much HP do they have?

 

[Valentus]

By today's standards, the thing should die with 2 flasks lol, but we all know gimu Will buff that thing to Resist at least one round of attacks

 

[Abylim]

I cleaned out my friend list, had like 10 people that haven't played in 4days or more.

My main is a 617 atk Luneth

My id is 898 946 239

 

[indigo-cyclops]

So type-0 banner won't be worth the pulls?

 

[Ken]

So type-0 banner won't be worth the pulls?

i think seven is supposed to be ok but then you're pulling for 5* support unit

 

[c-murph]

So type-0 banner won't be worth the pulls?

I pass.

 

[Chinner]

Isn't there another ff type 0 banner thst good good TMs at least?

 

[Whales]

What I wonder is who else will be on her banner.

exclusive global unit: pop star yuna from ffx-2

 

[DrROBschiz]

So type-0 banner won't be worth the pulls?

Im just gonna do what i did for FF13 and snag a few of the easy to pull bonus units

Hopefully the 4 star base too

And then farm out ehat i want and call it a day

 

[Celegus]

Third banner in a row I'm skipping. Haven't summoned anyone since Noctis banner!

Hmm actually, maybe a daily or two to get a bonus unit. Depends on the drop rate and prizes.

 

[KeRaSh]

Third banner in a row I'm skipping. Haven't summoned anyone since Noctis banner!

Same here. I'm slowly running out of must have TMs to farm after the current batch... I would have pulled for good TMs!

 

[Valentus]

So type-0 banner won't be worth the pulls?

In all seriousness:

Ace: forgettable unit as base 5star. He has his own versión Of última (Tri láser) but he depends yo much in luck with his skills. He is a gamble made unit. Very low mag for a base 5 star. If you have exdeath or Majin fina, avoid.

Seven: a good unit. Has cura Fira blizzaga and Focus. Can equip whips So empresa bitch is fine for her. But her star skill is elemental whip (Magic damage and -50% fire/ice/lightning). For a Magic team, Seven is a great addition. Pull for her.


Jack: take away all of chizuru's good thing and add you can equip sword and g.swords. he can cast cheer... Horrible unit.


Trey: a gunner... That can only equip bows. Lani level unit.

Conclussion: if you want to pull, do It until you get a Seven. Then bail out.

 

[Kouriozan]

Also avoiding this banner, if I can't get the moogle because of it I won't be mad.

EDIT : Japan getting Mog Cakes event!

C. Memory Candies

Clear Ayaka's Quest to receive recipes for Memory Candies
High-Quality Sugar and Delicious Water drop from Ayaka's Quest
Use them to make Memory Candies
Exchange them for Goodies from Moogleking in Farplane like Enhancement Rocks and Gacha Tickets

 

[Hippopuncher12]

Ugh no Cinque....won't even pull for the bonus most likely. Perhaps they will have the other Type 0 banner on week 2 or something....doubt it though. I need +20 ATK materia Gumi please!!!

 

[H3xum]

Really surprised we aren't seeing 6* Rain, honestly.

Blowing Lapis on TM farming instead of worthless pulls was the best decision I could have ever made in this game. I wish I could go back in time and tell me to just do this until the FFX banner

 

[Kouriozan]

Reddit is listing the trust moogle at 9999 Phantoma : https://www.reddit.com/r/FFBraveExv...news_recap_ff_type0_academiea_mog_king_event/ (and only 50 Gigantuars)
It can't be this cheap? Else the Doublicorn will be a 0.5% encounter rates.

Or this might means a short event and we'll get part 2 next week.

EDIT : might as well be a JP translation but I though they didn't get Gigantuars?

 

[Brunire]

I assume we will get the 2nd type-0 banner after one week to add more bonus units. That was how it worked during the XIII event.

Or did the 2nd banner come after 2 weeks? Now I am not sure...

 

[Kouriozan]

It was the following week indeed.
The second banner will be much more interesting TM wise.

Following week but it only added a single unit not 3-4.

 

[crazyivan19]

I think I'm going to try and get Seven. I'm not going to pull hard for her, but I'll use up my tickets and maybe a daily pull or two to try and get her. I think she would fit my current squad lineup quite nicely and she has the potential to be a decent hybrid unit.

Plus, truth be told... I'm tired of sitting around waiting for a good banner. I know it's short sighted and dumb to pull on a so-so banner, but I am seriously ready for a new unit to play around with. I haven't really pulled since the Noctis banner except a random one now and again, and this game is at its most fun for me when I have a new unit to level and gear up.

I could see myself losing interest in this game AWFULLY quickly if the only thing I have to look forward to is TM farming. Because that, to me, is not a game. Hell, with switch control going I'm not even playing the damn thing.

So when a unit comes along that I can actually try for (especially a base 4*), I'm going for it even if they're not amazing. It's the actual fun part of this game for me, so I'll indulge now and again.

 

[Syntsui]

If even Dark Fina can die in one turn with the correct set up, I don't see this Doublicorn being a threat.

How will Mirage Vest be a viable strategy considering you have to cast it first? Cast it, get hit nullifying the effect - cast it, get hit nullifying the effect - cast it, get hit nullifying the effect.

Turn 1: provoke, dont attack (doublicorn wont attack you)

Turn 2: mirage, attack with all (doublicorn Will attack and luckyly provoke Will work)

Turn 3: bananas

 

[Brunire]

Ah, true! Perhaps we will not see the 2nd type-0 for a couple banners yet.

Chinese New Year is upon us!

I might go for the FFZ banner because of Jack's TM. I want my Rikku to be crazy OP.

 

[Kouriozan]

Well we are getting thise event 2 months late compared to the JP schedule, if they keep part 2 separate that would be a whole boring month.
Oh and it's 200 Gigantuars that cost 50, reading comprehension failed x)

 

[bonkeng]

Seven's Elemental Whip will have some use. -50% Fire/Ice/Thunder Resist means on top of def break skills, you can element-break for further damage.

Useful for units like Vargas that deals with Fire Element but can't element-break like Orlandu.

 

[Syntsui]

Next week is Ariana Grande, no FF Zero. Unless they do two types of events at the same time.

 

[DrROBschiz]

Dont they put the dates on the event pages?

Should be explicit

Yeah well... Elemental whip + full break + 2 flasks chained...

 

[crazyivan19]

Yup, the dates are listed.

Event runs 1/13 - 1/26. No mention of the date range of the banner, but you would assume it's for the entire run of the event.

 

[KeRaSh]

Turn 1: provoke, dont attack (doublicorn wont attack you)

Oh, so it's a counter mechanic?

 

[Dandte]

I really want seven...my fav char from type 0.

 

[bonkeng]

Yeah well... Elemental whip + full break + 2 flasks chained...

In your case, triple-chained flasks lol.

If only she has some other use besides that.

 

[H3xum]

Jeez. All of the TMs on the latest JP batch of chars are amazing.

120attk Fire Katana on a 3* base?

100attk + 80mag sword on a 3* base?

20%attk/mag on a 3* base?

Wtf yes please

 

[SeanTSC]

Yeah well... Elemental whip + full break + 2 flasks chained...

Refia - Embolden, Elza - Ravaging Blow , Seven - Elemental Whip, 2x Noctis + Noctis friend =

Hope I pull a Seven.

 

[KeRaSh]

Oh, so it's a counter mechanic?

According to Reddit that thing doesn't attack (or at least use that 9999 damage skill) unless it's at 99% or less HP.

 

[Valentus]

If only she has some other use besides that.

Well, its really good when you have 2 exdeaths. Also, she has Fira and blizzaga So in the Next turn of elemental whip she can help with the elemental chaining Too.

I find Seven a useful elemental unit.

 

[Hippopuncher12]

Dammit you all gonna make me pull for Seven....

 

[crazyivan19]

From a lurker named Shin over on the Discord app (not related to Shintoki)...

Was there a lunar new years event in JP last year?

 

[mstevens]

Hey guys, a couple questions this morning.

I'm still struggling with this no-companion Veritas fight. I got my rank 3 exdeath to rank 4. Should I switch out rank 3 Zidane for rank 4 Hayate and level him a bit?

I also have a bunch of mini pots. Is it possible to mess up a character if I give him the less efficient stat (DEF instead of ATK). I have a bunch of little attack ones.. Give to Noctis? Or should I wait to give him big ones. Not really sure how that works.
