And this is what we call a slow news night. I can hear the crickets in here.

Kicked out a couple slackers off my friends list, because I was slacking myself in maintaining the list.

826 124 838, if not already on my friends list. Tend to keep Artemios up for barrage and killer goodness, as most players tend not to put one of him up for friend use.

 

[chrono01]

For new page:

I just spent 200 lapis to get 10 more friend slots. Im a daily gifter as well. Add me gaffers!

350,186,594

Right now I have a 4* max lvl Locke as my companion. Also have 4* max lvl Tellah, Artemios, Leo, Terra, Lenna, and more - plus Rain Laswell and FIna. Im about to go on an awakening spree!

This must be what a baker feels like, like the life one who bakes.

Constantly horrified and worried about how much flour they have.

 

[Plague Doctor]

I am not leaving the Miranda Coast hunting for flour during this event, am I? Four slots all making premiums.

Indeed. I've developed the very bad habit of routinely checking to see if I am generating more flour than I am spending each crafting cycle :/

I am not leaving the Miranda Coast hunting for flour during this event, am I? Four slots all making premiums.

As someone who is also running all four slots, I can tell you concretely that running Miranda only will almost never allow you to reach terminal velocity and escape the beach. Only way to generate surpluses each crafting cycle for sure is to be running Dwarven Forge.

I tend to mix the two to try to avoid staleness as much as possible, but I generally can only hope to break even per cycle running only Miranda (although it is a much, much easier [and mindless] zone to run than the Forge).

 

[bonkeng]

I take back what i said about the Forge.

Easy to macro-farm.

Manually, I'd still prefer Coast.

Macro, Forge is better because it drops more flour.

 

[spyhunterzero]

Got enough for two more Hero Rings in my runs to get a surplus of supplies for cakes. Got up to 4k flour but I feel that if I slack off and stop running I will run out quickly since I am running 4 premiums which takes 1,200 flour. Forge just started to get light with the flour so I'm switching to Maranda to see if that starts giving me more

Well how do you think King Mog feels, having to eat all those cakes?

 

[zerokoolpsx]

Got another Locke from the 1/2 banner. I'll take it.

 

[Rixa]

Dont use it now.

In the 4th island i think theres another fat chocobo that gives you earrings (+3 def +20% MAG) for 50 star quartz

And then in future towns you can buy:

Trust moogles for 300 SQ (in JP there are 3 fat chocobos with 1 trust moogle each)
Man-Eater Materia for 200 SQ
Equip Rod Materia for 100 SQ
Force Shield for 50 SQ (heavy shield, 40 def, 8 SPR, +10% resist to fire ice lightning)
Holy Lance for 100 SQ (Lance, 82 Atk, holy element)
Cat Ear Hood for 100 SQ (hat, 25 MAG/SPR, +20% resist fire ice lightning)
Auto Refresh Materia for 200 SQ (+5% MP refill each turn)

So, everyone that dont plan to buy star quartz, you will regret it later.

Buy your Star Quartz fellow players.

(My daily was crap again: Anzelm, useless TM is now 20%).

 

[Chinner]

Do they announce the new banner today?

 

[scarlet]

Do they announce the new banner today?

Supposed to be. Maybe in few hours.

 

[Dusky]

Guys, quick question:

Is there a scenario where Doublehand is better than Dual Wield or does DW beat it everytime?

I think double hand also gives bonuses for equipment and accessories. So if you had some amazing equipment... Maybe?

 

[zerokoolpsx]

So I should start hording star quartz now? I need some new equipments.

Thanks - looks like we are getting some essential upgrades down the line. Guess you really wanna get as much SQ as possible. Glad i didnt waste them yet.

As nice as the sprites are, all of your attacks are essentially covered up by flashing numbers and text, as you're encouraged to attack all at once. : /

Yeah i share that small pet peve

Would be cool if a game like this had adopted an ATB system (which would be easy to implement) but they would have to rethink everything with mobile time investment in mind.....


Lololol

 

[Vashetti]

Whenever I make a mog cake box now, it's telling me I have x999 mogcakes and it doesn't seem to be going up. Is that normal?

 

[Zafir]

The UI on the crafting screen doesn't seem to display over 999. Be it the mats required for mogcakes, or the mogcakes themselves after you've crafted them.

If you go to the shop you'll find you do have the right amount.

That's what I thought, thanks

 

[H3xum]

I was gone for the holiday weekend so I haven't had a chance to check this thread much. Have a question about 30k mace from the mogcake event....

Who is it meant for? Is it for a mage? I don't have a CoD and my Bartz has the Energizer or whatever.

I don't know if I want to buy it....

 

[Vashetti]

Christ, is it just me, or lots of crashes today?!

It's best suited for CoD since she's equipment-limited.

If you have many dps units who can equip a wide range of weapons like Bartz and Firion, it's a good idea to get it.

If you're contemplating, get the tickets first.

Yeah I think I am just going to do the trust moogle + tickets + quartz first and see how much I have left. Leave the equipment for last if I want em

 

[scarlet]

No banner announcement so far, or is it tomorrow?

Add screamroot to your list.

 

[Valentus]

Tickets, Moogle and Quartz Done.

I hope tomorrow have enough cakes for the shield and i will have everything worth.

Fucking king moogle, i hope diabetes kills you slowly.

 

[Zafir]

I've managed to get the tickets and the moogle done.

Slowly getting more and more sick of those explorations though.

 

[CrimsonSquall]

Add screamroot to your list.

Screamroots is only for magic keys right? Cause after getting all the keys from those bundles summer bundles and screamroots from a few minitaurs I still have a bunch of keys.

Only chest I have opened so far is Mag 10% so for me idk if screamroots is even anywhere on the priority list

 

[H3xum]

Add screamroot to your list.

Will do. What are some of the Silver Chest highlights coming up? Because I am sitting on 8 or so keys with nothing to do.

 

[ExVicis]

Thanks - looks like we are getting some essential upgrades down the line. Guess you really wanna get as much SQ as possible. Glad i didnt waste them yet.

It's still probably a long ways off, I don't mind the fact that I already used some of mine.

 

[H3xum]

Is there some solid Mythril equips coming down the line? Because I have 3 slots of Mythril ore and it is clogging me up. I am thinking of selling some

 

[DrROBschiz]

Yeah I have so much material and very little to use it on lol

Im ready for some grindy crafts that use all these mats ive stockpiled

 

[PantherLotus]

Still new to this but finally figuring things out.

NOT a fan of using the awakening vortex for materials on my 3*+ units. But what other choice do I have?

Nice!

I snagged another Locke this Morning

Not sure what Im gonna due. I really need to focus on jsut a few units for TMs right now. It takes forever even with Nox farming :/

 

[Valonquar]

Putting "Daily Gifter" in your flavor text seems pointless to me. Everyone gifts... it's linked to a trophy and we need every easy trophy we can get.

No its not nice! thats the fourth I've pulled, I'm using up my Emperor luck!!! ; ;

That and like half the people on my list that had that are people i removed because they hadn't played in like a week or more

 

[DrROBschiz]

No its not nice! thats the fourth I've pulled, I'm using up my Emperor luck!!! ; ;

Oh geez!

Stop psyching yourself out!

 

[Adeptrain]

Relatively new to the game and I powered through the content to get to miranda coast and oh my, the difference it makes in flour...ㅠㅠ

Seriously, seeing some of the fights in the exploration giving me 50 flour is beautiful!

 

[bonkeng]

No its not nice! thats the fourth I've pulled, I'm using up my Emperor luck!!! ; ;

4th one, and here I am still searching for my 1st T_T

 

[DrROBschiz]

Im hoping to get 5 dupes of any great unit I can

Anything i can do to limit TM farming the better

Hitting 16% is much easier on my brain lol

I don't think I can do a 50 days of grinding with a single unit.

At this point I don't mind having dupes

Spoiler

with great TMs.

It seems the new Banner announcement is tomorrow. Hopefully it's new unit or FF IV. I want Cecil and excalibur.

 

[PantherLotus]

I have two General Leos now -- people in here saying it is better to NOT fuse them, correct?

Dude for real. This is the only way I can deal with it lol

 

[Lyrian]

Struck out today:

-- Penelo
-- Gold Sabin

Added as many gaffers as I could. One person is still on the waiting list through a random roll (Lyfe), and will be added as soon as I am able to punt someone off the list. Stupid artificially low 130 friend limit :/

 

[H3xum]

Right. Put them both in a party and train them alongside one another

Better than be... yet another Shadow.

I swear I will get enough for his TM.

 

[DrROBschiz]

Nope

Decide how many shields you want and focus on farming TM with dupes

If you only want 1 copy of each TM then get as many as 5 dupes if you can

Easiest way to go. Getting units to 16% with nox is relatively painless
