I've just been using Cheer and Full Break, and I take her out in 2, maybe another turn with just auto attack.
Not physical team. But I did it in 2 turns.
I used cheer + full break + imperil + Magic + barrage.

Yeah event is fun but very tough
Anyone know is the damn belmodars can be silenced?

Cheer-Fullbreak-Barrage Combo. Will be harder without Fullbreak. Everyone should have access to Cheer and Barrage by now.

Dude
the material requirements suck ass once again
is it even possible to get more than one of each item per run?

Congratulations falk! You can do it!
Did way to many pulls, all trash except for 1 firion. I'm out for the rest of the banner

ehh 20 runs for MAYBE one Hp+15%
you basically have to be committed to farming this event and the unit XP sucks since youll likely need a strong ass team to beat the bosses

This is a pretty good event for me because I was farming kolobos marsh otherwise, it is good for megacrysts and also leveling my high 4 star and mid 5 star units. I also like the bonus of giant cactaurs and gil snappers.
I know how that feels. I gave up pulling until Lightning shows up. I was lucky enough to pull Kuja and Zidane when the game came out.

The facebook billion likes bonus gives 30 free NRG a day which is the equivilant of two free runs so in that sense it is not unreasonable to obtain and it certainly isn't another gravity rod (I wonder if there was anyone who went for two of those...it was just about possible in time frame...). Agree about the unit EXP though (I'm at the point where my units are either minimum level so too frail to run a party of or max level so get no EXP). I'm just ignoring the tougher boss for now which of course means less HP+15%...
This reminds me has anyone had more than one of each per run? I'm pretty sure I'm running the encounters down to zero yet one of each is all I get.

*uses half cost pull*
*gets 3* Lani*
Well, I wanted her just because, well, she looks cool, etc. I'm still mystified she's a 4* max, though. Maybe if I'm lucky one of these days I'll pull a Chizuru, but my party ain't really bad, right now.

Got Vaan (3 star) outta the half cost pull. Pretty cool
I'm sure as hell I didn't do it 20 times and yet got 17 pure stones.
I should be at 9 or 10 runs.
Ainsel give 2 pure stones almost every time for me.
Current team :
Bartz 5* lvl 72 (no barrage yet)
Chizuru 5* lvl 80
Warrior of Light 5* lvl 75
Chizuru 5* lvl 37
Lenna 5* lvl 74 (no Curaja and Cheer)
welp, pulled the daily 1/2 cost summon, got a 3* Anzelm... I guess I will hold onto my other 3700 lapis (and all the tickets from that daily chest) for later. I have a number of units to work up anyhow.
The Into the Abyss expedition bosses are a bit much for my team ATM. I almost got wiped by the three monsters at the end. I only pulled through thanks to a lv 80 WOL friend.
I have been slowly working up the pulls that you guys recommended a week ago. Kefka is now 4* level 57, and usable for my current team. I will probably wait to get him to 5* until there is a cactaur event, since I don't have the enhance materials to get him back to third tier magic (lvl 56) if I maxed his 4* form and evolved him.
For now, I have switched to Bartz. He is 2-3 chamber of experience runs from maxing his 3* form, and I should have mats to get him to 4* already.
Is there any faster way to farm sacred crystals than the intermediate chamber of awakening?
Also, when is there a limit on the amount of experience you can have at once? I have 8-9 of those 30 experience bottles sitting in my inventory. If something worthwhile comes up, can I cash all of them in at once, or is there a cap?

By the way, where's the 3rd trial!
Japan got it a few day after Kolobos, I really need that Killer Bow.
Reddit saying that Zidane drop rates is even lower than WoL.
Tsk tsk, bad Gumi ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Solo increased drop rates banners are definitely not happening.

Okay, Tellah is the bomb. I can basically run through the event using magic at will, and then when I get to the boss that is immune, OSMOSE and full magic again.
Seriously, like this event. If you have to farm, great. If you have to level up, great. If you need mats for BS recipes, also great!

Both bosses spawn in the same place. They either drop 0-2(I have yet to get either not to drop, so I'm not sure about the 0), so you're averaging a bit better than 1 per go.
You need 20 Pearls from the Siren for the HP and 20 Powder combined for both the other 2 from the Golem.
So you run this 15 times, you'll have all 3. If you choose to do this for your daily Vortex. You'll have enough mats in 5 days.
So no, it's not 20 runs for maybe the 15+HP. By 20, you should have it.
And that is if you are only focusing on it, which I think is fairly short sighted.
This vortex has a lot going for it.
1. Exp is around 70k per run. You are netting the same as an Int Vortex for each character. (Throw 1 or 2 ones you're still leveling up on, or one if you don't care about it dying).
2. The drop rate for Earth Megacrystals are very high. You need 20x for every Monarch Ring. These are the next step up from the Hero Ring. Farm now while they are dropping at a great rate.
3. An additional Turtles and Cati you get are bonuses. I.E. a free 15k or 30k Exp. You'll typically run into one each turn.
4. Other rare materials like Mylthril Ore, Heaven's Ash, and others drop with a decent rate here.
It's no different when people fixate on pulling one character rather than the overall picture. This is a fairly good dungeon with a solid upgrade(15% HP) and lots of additional benefits. Basically you are running an Adv Exp, Adv Awakening, Adv Material at the same time as having an exploration map with 5 Resource nodes.
I feel like this is just you wanting the quick fix and be done with it. When really, running this dungeon once is equal to about 60 energy used for 4 other different things.
How is that possible?! Isn't Zidane a base 3*?
Easy. The Major increase is the same as previous banners. This means the increase is shared between the characters. So it's still a 30% chance to pull, but now it's split between 5 characters rather than 3 and the better characters(While still base 3) are having the same rate as a 4* pull.
Nor would I argue, I can't see why solo banners can't happen. They would be great for when characters get their 6*. But people keep assuming that a major boost means it should drop like candy. When they are never going to change the fact that 7 out of 10 rolls will be those useless 3-4* characters. This hasn't changed.
take account that zidane is one of the units with worst pull rate on 3*, I think only Terra was worst than him, he is harder to pull that Exdeath, Cecil or Bartz. Look at me 42!!!! pulls to get 2. And got 6 lanis and 5 Vivis.
Edit: forgot what I said, Zidane is the worst unit to pull, found the table with the survey that was done during the rerolling phase during soft launch. http://imgur.com/gIZEWCi

I'm kinda worried because those banner were released in Japan really early after the game launch, still hoping we'll at least get a Cecil one.
Wow, and yet they both don't have a 6* awakening yet in Japan.
All recipes are found in chests scattered throughout the map. They made some alterations to the layout for global and as of last checking, the wiki had the outdated map up.
I didn't notice any alterations from the map on the wiki. Everything seemed to be in the same place.
And I agree with the poster above - this is a far better event that the Demons event. The Demon event got you *nothing* other than the ingredients for the rod. This event gives a ton of experience, lots of rare materials used for other things, and a King Gil or giant Cactuar. It's feels very efficient to run for just 15 energy.

It's combo and elemental chain that are.

I watched the vid (without sound) but I can't figure out what's going on. What the heck move is Firion using to chain off of autobowgun?
Firion is doing random stuff like ultima or bladeblitz in my gif
WoL is doing that AoE DEF/SPR debuff he learns at 6*

So that multi hit AoE physical attack is just his version of Bladeblitz? I have to try this out. I assume this is only doable with elemental weapons on both Edgar and Firion?
Yep, everyone should have the same elemental weapon.
Firion's using bladeblitz and his attack animation makes him hit 2 times iirc

Characters restart at level 1 when they evolve, however they keep all of the abilities they learned already. Thus, your Kefka would still have all of his learned magic but would have low MP and MAG due to being low level again.
