I would say this is half true. Right now, it's 9 higher than the highest. In the coming time, it will be obsolete. Sort of like T2 armor going to T3 for a lot of class, with the expansion looming. It is still the "best", but the best is simply always changing. It is a good way to get people into the rat race mentality though.


The event itself is very poor, the itemization is poor on top of it, and the amount of time needed does not correlate with the reward in comparison to upcoming content. Which is the differing point. In WoW and most MMOs, the player base typically doesn't know a year's worth of content in advance. Hence why they are already gauging future content and what to invest into now. This is pretty rare case in comparison to most MMO titles.

Anyways... 55 hearts down. 25 more. Q_Q

With long term play, I'm honestly not sure if I'll be playing or not. This is my first mobile title outside of Wordcrack/Trivia Crack. But I'm clearly feeling the, a string of bad luck with pulls will stop you from advancing. While you can still play through the story, the game is definitely not built around it.

Same, I left hearthstone and playing this now.
My RNG luck is better here than hearthstone. But not sure if I can see myself playing this for the next 6 months. I was so close quitting exvius last week

I don't mind throwing few bucks, I spent around 40 in hearthstone, and pretty much that's my limit for this kinda game.

Yeah, I mean, that was kind of implied that mudflation/obsoletion would be part of the picture, albeit not the problem itself. Going back to the T3 example, it'd be like if T3 was buyable from shops for every classes except Warlocks which needed to grind rep for it. And there were no other alternatives to T3 Warlock of that power level. And then all of it becomes obsolete.

(And here we are grinding for it. At 67 hearts myself lol)

 

[Neekaw]

So we should get those 300 Lapis -> Tix bundles starting from tomorrow.

Google playstore link to BE

This is maybe a stupid question, but do we know if it's coming to IOS as well?

 

[DrROBschiz]

3 hearts left babay!!
Went 7/7 in INT this morning

I dont know why but my luck swung wildly after the reset

 

[Xion86]

Mobius hasn't really grabbed me, not too keen on a few aspects of it and think I'm going to fully stick to EXVIUS. Perfect for dipping into during the day on my iPad or phone too.

Anyway....GRAVITY ROD IS NOW BEING CRAFTED!!

 

[StarVigil]

I'm kinda done with this game for now. These events seem fairly pointless to me as I don't have the time for endless grind right now. Plus, the pulls are hilariously depressing.

 

[Xion86]

I'm playing this on my iPad Air 2.

 

[Neekaw]

I'm playing this on my iPad Air 2.

I meant the summer bundle

Fair critique

Not a fan of the events right now but im plugging away anyways cuz i dont really have anything else on my phone to compete with BE

It probably would be Mobius but its a battery killer

 

[Rixa]

This is maybe a stupid question, but do we know if it's coming to IOS as well?

I'm playing this on my iPad Air 2.

I think it will be for all the global players. Would be stupid not to get this with iOS.

Dark siren and ifrit fight, 40 NRG.

Who are the units behind Lightning and WoL?

 

[Rixa]

I dont have the source for this information but one JP player says this:

Interesting results arriving, whenever you pull a rainbow, it is always 80% chance that it is a 5 star base.
No matter if it is banner or no banner
Banner causes 62.5% of all rainbow crystals to be banner units.
Since 80% chance to be 5 star base: 62.5*0.8 = 50% chance to get 5 star base banner unit

It either is true or not, still rates for 5* are abysmal .

Jeebus an hour long fight?

Why do they even do this

 

[Xion86]

Ah my bad Neekaw. I think I prefer EXVIUS because of the sprites and being 2D, just easier for its pick up and play appeal without killing battery too much. Also I love the menu layout and generally a lot of the screens!

Cannot wait to level my new team up and get back to the story / higher Colosseum fights.

 

[CCIE]

Did they neef megacrysts in the Dessert? Over the last three days have done three runs with no megacryst of any kind... Never before seen that

 

[desverger]

Maybe someone can correct me, but..

Orurandu = Orlando?
Sakura
Oviria = Ophelia?

I knew Orlandu, the 2 girls I didn't know.

But now I remember that Ovelia is from Tactis too

Sakura, have no idea. maybe a BE?

Thanks for the info

 

[DrROBschiz]

One final heart and I am free from Demons Unleashed forever!

Suppose ill do the 15 NRG and guarantee my freedom

But now what.. I suppose I raise my Lenna, Cecil, Artemios and move on with the story

This is probably helpful: https://www.reddit.com/r/FFBraveExvius/wiki/units

Orlandu is a melee unit/debuffer, Ovelia healer/buffer w/Raise and Sakura dualcast BM.

It honestly feels like they did. I have a ton of ice now but I lack fire (pretty ironic, I know). After a few days of farming TM, I may spend a day or two just grinding the Golzas canyon for fire megas/unit XP/rank XP/Yellow magicites.

Oddly enough it seems like the nerfed the desert drops and increased Wolfspeak drop rate. Incidentally farming Megacite in the PF Trust Reward Ice megacryst seem to pop up often.

I got 10 fires in pretty low amount of time yesterday actually. Several runs with 2-3 dropping. This morning I am not getting shit though. RNG I think.

 

[CrimsonSquall]

Been at it hardcore on FFT. Almost at the end and I will be rejoining the discussion here. Ramza is a great dude, much respect

 

[Coppanuva]

Was having trouble with S-2 Int's boss, so I tried out WoL and fullbreak... jeez that feels op.I had basically all the same debuffs on him through other units, but that made is so much easier.

 

[Zera_Bloodwinter]

Man, Full Break and Cheer change the game. Double or more damage on my phys character abilities. Love it!

 

[shintoki]

That makes more sense. Gotcha.

Still need to research how MAG and SPR scale in the game.

Happy the Summer Bundle was confirmed. Save 200 Lapis per ticket and I'll probably use a single key for Barblizzara

Was having trouble with S-2 Int's boss, so I tried out WoL and fullbreak... jeez that feels op.I had basically all the same debuffs on him through other units, but that made is so much easier.

Certain classes definite break the game. Right now, it's Vaan and WoL with Full Break. With Leena providing both Curaga and Cheer. If you have both of those, you're golden.

 

[scarlet]

1st turn

Fullbreak + cheer + barrage (killer skills)

Fulbreak + focus + imperil & magic

Win

 

[Azuran]

Jeebus an hour long fight?

Why do they even do this

Why not? Now they just need to add the original version of Pandemonium Warden to this game and we'll be all set.

:/

because its on my phone

Even better. You can carry the game with you and continue the fight at all times!

 

[Valentus]

Jeebus an hour long fight?

You clearly didnt play brave frontier before lol.

The Tilith trial can take even more time to clear if rng didn bless you xD

uuuggghh

Endurance encounters are the fucking worst in RPGs

 

[Valentus]

So fuck the Rod. I entered in a Lapi rage and now i have this

So i changed my leader again to kefka. Enjoy!

 

[DrROBschiz]

Fuuuccckkkkinnng nice

Not sure ill ever get that reward unless i pull some dupes

 

[CCIE]

I'm 15% of the way to that reward Just another six months or more to go

 

[bonkeng]

WTF....

My highest tm so far is 8.5%.

How many have you maxed?

 

[Coppanuva]

You're telling me... also I just pulled cause I kinda wanted Leena and got her. My team is shaping up wayy too nicely.

 

[shintoki]

Not that bad considering I can stop at anytime and pick up.

 

[_woLf]

So should I buy the 11 summon ticket bundle before it goes away? I remember there was talk of another bundle replacing it but I don't remember what it was.

 

[Iceman829]

Just to make sure I'm doing it right. If I want to TM grind I just play the first mission of the game over and over again?

 

[DrROBschiz]

If you can spare the lapis yes

just make sure you have 3000 on retainer to take full advantage of the summer sale

 

[Yogg]

I've been focusing on TM runs since the end of the cactuar weekend, this is mind-numbingly annoying. At least I'm pushing 3 Lockes at the same time aiming for a fuse, so that makes things move faster, but the Zidane and Bartz next to them are moving so sloooow.

Once Locke is done I'll replace them with Cecil and 2x Hayate/Golbez/Luna (I have yet to decide between the three), and that's going to be painful. Not sure I'll go all the way with the second wave. I don't want to get disgusted with the game.

I don't know how you can do it Rixa. Much respect.

 

[shintoki]

If you're F2P. I'll say no. It's nothing more than a buy 10, get one free. You're only getting a 45 Lapis discount on each ticket.

It will be much better to save down the line. Outside of the 30 Lapis, if they bring 250 dailies over, or even if they replace it/bring it back up again after the summer specials.

The potential loss isn't worth the minimal gain.

 

[RedZaraki]

With your team full of trust masteries you want to earn towards, yeah.

10,000 times or so.

 

[Yogg]

Btw, regarding TM farming, is there a difference between Shrine entrance and Shrine exit ? Does the fact that exit has 3 rounds and a boss improve the chances of TM levelup ? Or does entrance give exactly the same odds ?

 

[Maledict]

Its a 10% chance to get a 0.1% % increase per mission run. Difficulty or length of mission has no effect upon the odds of getting the increase as far as we know.

 

[Starwolf_UK]

I got my 80 demon hearts. I'm doing okay on the void vessels. Got 40 of them so not many to go...I won't use the event itself for getting the materials as I'll end up clogging an inventory slot with demon hearts I can't use on anything and don't want to sell.

Alright, thanks for the clarification.

 

[Squall ASF]

Finally, got WoL and Leena's 4* lvl maxed. Now to switch over to Int Awaken Vortex and farm a million Sacred Crystals ;_; . At least I'm switching from 15 NRG vortex to 10. Also, WoL at 4* max is a lot stronger than Rain already so I'm able to give him the boot Not swapping Fina for Leena just yet because of Cheer. Hopefully I'll be lucky with the Sacred Crystal drops!

Thanks again to the couple guys on here that suggested taking people out of the party to level. That was invaluable.
