How good is Bartz USB without any of his EnElements or LD? I plan to LD him eventually, just no motes yet.
Justin Allen
went from 3k to 9k. it's a pretty good day.

Gabriel Smith
It's good, but it isn't the broken nuts. If you don't have attach then a piece of element gear will boost his damage almost half as much. Not having his legend dive materia will hurt him, though. I even invested in the full Snowstorm Strike dive for the bonus spellblade damage.
William Bell
>prishe
David White
It's great, assuming you're backing it up with well-honed 5-6* spellblade abilities, and hopefully +element equipment. You don't need his enelement BSBs with his USB, juggling multiple SBs isn't the goal with the USB. His LD is important though, prioritize that.

I'd rather have 6k lapis tbqh

All of this delicious profit is going to the Ayaka trust fund.

Benjamin Morris
huh, pulled daily freebie ace on top of 6150 lapis. Is he worth enhancing if i have a stacked emperor/DF?
Jackson Jones
Every top tier healer is a donut though. Tilith. Leah. CG Fina. Ayaka.

If you don't have sub 30 in a magicite you will have a VERY unlucky pull tonight.

That's adorable, user.
Samuel Ross

Michael Long
Kind wish I invested another oull into getting A2 now, My funds are back at where they started in the Nier banner
Xavier Roberts
That's what I figured. I really don't think it's wise to spend precious motes on 3% increased damage though. I have at least 1 +element gear for all 4 of his elements luckily.
Yeah, I dislike SB juggling, but it's sometimes necessary (gorilla Cloud doing OSBs where my element game is lacking) and is a bit manageable with Entrust batteries. I just hate how much time it takes to pick an SB even on speed 1.

Namedropper-kun do you have nothing else better to do? We just wanna play games and shoot the shit. Can you not?
Adam Diaz
So what's the next "must have" unit coming besides Cloud and Ayaka? Is Ayaka worth getting if I already have Tillith? Please tell me Lulu is good
Juan Long
mistair ant that one kingsglaive bitch
Carter Mitchell
Lulu is widely considered to be one of the worst base 5* units in the game. She's Queen tier. If she came out today she'd still be underpowered in the GL meta.
Joseph Fisher
>not pulling for units you like zzz
Angel Hall

Tyler Reed
So how many Shantottos should I bother awakening? Two for arena and call it a day, or is it worth doing five for expeditions and whatnot?
Luke Myers

I'm barely going to have enough mythril to do the fest banners. How long is this crystal tower choice banner I read about going to be up and when? Because I am NOT missing out on Echo BSB.
Brody White
This is Lilly isnt it?
Owen Campbell
I got bad news for ya user
Grayson Morgan
I wouldn't worry about the actual fest banners, focus on these lucky draws and the crystal tower banner.
Camden Lee
But I am, I'm pulling for a cute white mage who gives out candy. The FF characters I like are shit in BE, and I already have them all.
Angel Robinson
based Gumi always look out for us. Look at how they replaced Razma with Soleil
Charles Sanchez
yeah i meant lucky draws. I wasn't considering pulling on the fest banners.
I do have a LOT of realm dungeons to mine out still, but that's not going to be a hell of a lot.
Carson Sanchez
Why did I lose people on my friend list?
Blake Moore
>tfw I pulled Squire Ramza on a daily during the Merc Ramza banner >he ends up being useless >farm his TM and it's not nearly as good as it used to be >he's stuck doing expeditions with his buddy Squire Delita
Thomas Lopez
They learn to hate you and leave just like everyone else in your life
Jacob Powell
git gud
Austin Parker
So the lucky draws go away by the end of the day. Hit up the mythril mines and grind for 25 today and 25 tomorrow. After the luckies are done, they're giving us a fat stack of mythril, so look forward to that.
Jason Russell
>tfw pulled Lightning
Lincoln Ross
Mistair - mage version of WoL. If you don't get Basch, you're gonna want her. >Is Ayaka worth getting if I already have Tillith? Yes. By a mile. On-demand dualcast Reraise is invaluable.
Samuel Butler
i already have rikku desu
Jeremiah Butler
> She's a vengeful cunt. I hope she burns in shit.

She fucking Ultima'd Reagan's waifu because she couldn't get his cock. Fuck her.
Andrew Barnes

no it's missing a sexual deviant furry picture with their name plastered on it

Can't you just use a fucking reeku ult
Nolan Hernandez
What's your friend code i want to add you BEbro
Jeremiah Sanchez
Cloud is a bitch to gear since you need his 2x the Glove of the 5* bitch on his banner. Fuck that.
Ayaka is a must-have. Tilith can't even compete and I haven't used her for months now since she can't reraise. Hell, I'm using fucking Yuna over her and she sucks cocks, but at least she can reraise.
Other must-have is going to be Crowe from the Kingsglaive banner for that sweet 30% HP/SPR materia. Your Mistair is going to need it.
Samuel Reed
t. chingchong hacker
Jack Murphy
>Mistair - mage version of WoL
What does that even mean
She is a tank that gets raped by physical attacks or it can't even protect against them?
Juan Nelson
So I'm confused about all these festival banners. I know in addition to the five fest banners themselves, there's also one more Lucky Draw, a free 30-pull, and some kind of gem-only pull?
Am I missing anything? Wasn't there something about a free Tyro USB or something too?
Angel Hill
>needing reraise lol shitter
Leo Hernandez
Cloud is a whale unit, you need bare minimum 3 5* base TMRs to make him good. The next realistically obtainable (i.e. not a 5* base) must-have unit is Mistair, she's an AoE magic cover tank and the only other character who covers her niche is Basch, a 5* base who comes out months later and is on a split banner. Ayaka is a straight up upgrade to Tilith in every way, but I don't think she's essential. Personally I'm gonna pull for Sylvia for her TMR and hope I get Ayaka, and then hard pull for CG Fina when she comes out.
Rikku LB isn't available 100% of the time and it's impossible to have on turn 1, Ayaka makes it possible to permanently have reraise on someone, like herself and/or a tank.
Oliver James
>CG Fina
Is a mage? Are mages relevant?
Joshua James
t. emanon
Chase Richardson
This is Hercules, isn't it?
Ryder Perez
There is also the crystal tower pull, which technically isn't a fest pull. It's a keeper's choice full price 1 time only thing with actual good options that you can pick afterwards. The Tyro USB2 is free after you do the 17 minor dungeons that pop up during the fest. You also get mythril for each individual one.
Christian Garcia
>It doesn't even stack who the fuck even said anything about it stacking? jesus christ you BEapes really live up to the name
Sebastian Jackson
She's basically a slightly better Ayaka that lacks stop resist and stop healing, but also have some magic damage abilities that scale of SPR.
Most of their OP skillset is shared, though.
Asher Brooks
>not ya boi Hercules this is reddit mod man Corey isn't it?
Brandon Diaz
CG Fina is basically Ayaka except replacing stop immunity/cure with some extra offensive/support abilities, she's a healer not a mage. CG Sakura is a mage and she's absolutely one of the best and most relevant characters in the game.
Justin Gutierrez
No it's Wynnona where my chicanos at
Sebastian Lopez
>Are mages relevant? >He has not experiences an awakened Ace
Robert Evans
>Rikku LB isn't available 100% of the time it is for me
Angel Ross
>32k Lapis before maintenance >39k Lapis after finally losing for the first time in Story Mode against Sol and saying "nope, time to go finish all the vault quests" I mean, I'm ready to try and pull for Ayaka, for sure. I won't pull until the final day of the banner, but I'll try.
Asher Johnson
How wynnona are you, exactly?
Ian Powell
calm down ESLfag
Aiden Bennett
Magical group cover
Carter Barnes
Well I only need two more mythril today to pull. I may have to do an obscene number of mythril refreshes to hit tomorrow's deadline but whatever.
Also I logged in a few weeks back and grabbed Bartz's Latent Power and Faris's USB. Those any good?
Sebastian Williams
then why the fuck would you double cast it? retard
Isaiah Cooper
Ooh, Sol's a toughie. My souped up meta team actually had some problems with him.
Also nice lapis stores, I'm jealous.
Cooper Turner
Faris has two USB; the imperil one and the interrupt one. Both are good, but the Imperil one is slightly better. Bartz' burst3 is pretty good, it's a rarely resisted element, but at the same time it's not often things are weak to it.
Jacob Wilson
Ace is more of an MP battery and imperil ape. Ashe is probably the only good mage GL has so far because she can take the healer spot and build chains at the same time, provided you have Rikku and a tank with Mechanical Heart.
Dylan Ward
To give it to two people at once (like, say, Ayaka and your tank, or if the content has a guaranteed instant-death, the marked-for-death character and Ayaka)
Caleb Foster
Yeah I got the imperil one that fucks up their offensive stats.
Joshua Bennett
Calm down, VGCF.
Hunter Gomez
>people who spent the 5k immediately fearing a rollback
Blake Ward
>Not AOE Reraise Into the trash it goes then
Josiah Martinez
suck my Robert dude
Carter Howard
CG Fina's is linked to her LB, which you'll never find time to use anyway. Healers are way too busy for that. You could equally complain that CG Fina can't full raise multiple units and full heal at the same time, which Ayaka's LB can.
Jordan Rivera
The whole point is that she has it on demand with having to rely on her LB and she can dualcast in in addition to another spell. It's not replacing Rikku, it's just complementing her when shit goes south and she Rikku doesn't have her LB available.
Ryan Allen
So basically Ayaka might be the key of me actually beating Agaigion just because my Rikku decides to be a cunt and not fill her LB in several turns in that specific trial?
Sebastian Martin
The lapis storage is only here since I started now a month ago and the only thing I've spent it on were 2 10+1 pulls on the final day of the Nier banner (never got A2 or 2B) and upgrades to Item/Material/Unit/Equipment/Friend slots. The story mode gives you a lot of lapis! But not after the first continent!
Time to go actually begin vault quests (I somehow never completed the first continent vault, so I never got the next key to open the next vault...which snowballed into me NEVER being able to acquire vault quests and 1/4 the keys involved). I also will finish up the other quests while spending time leveling up the story mode donuts so I can get the Rain/Lasswell/Fina equipment and then work on leveling up my arena units (Shantottox2/Ashe/Amelia/9S/DarkVeritas/Victoriax2 currently).
I'm enjoying it all, and my primary reason for playing is for the collection, not actually meta-team building. I want one of every unit and I want them maximum power. I know it's impossible since not only is it rare to even get them, some are limited time and never coming back, but the spirit remains. Also, the scenery art in this game is awesome and most of the music is extremely comfy.
