I'm about to drop 5k on this banner myself. If CCIE does it too I completely understand.

So I am pretty sure I have squeezed every amount of MAG on my Exdeath I can atm if I want to keep Dual Cast on him. Currently at 401 MAG w/ Dual Cast and another 30% MAG+ waiting for when he hits 6* and I can drop the Dual Cast materia. Now to finally work up some physical units.

Went from Rank 70 to 80 this event. It's been great. I have done my fair share of Rank grinding before though. It was something easy and quick to do to dump energy while at work. Love having tons of energy when I wake up and I really don't waste much energy even during the night when sleeping.
TM farming update, swapped one Ludmille for Zidane, one dual cast will be enough for Refia, decided to keep both Chizuru.

5,000 Earth Shrine runs away from a blade mastery, slowly getting there!
Still have my 2 10% trust moogles.

Grats, that was a crazy bet there.
Gratz. Now ditch your Delita avatar and change it to Ramza XD

Grats! Welcome to the Ramza club. I will say that he seems to be pulled far more often than Lightning was ><
Since Delita forsook me, it is done!
Thanks!

I started at 51 this event and now I'm 70. Just gonna keep going till it ends. Being able to sleep and not lose nrg is awesome.
Probably should just switch to the exploration now since you would really have to grind hard or spend real monies to get enough mats for another complete 6*.
Level up your Espers instead!

D; Not a Single good unit pulled this banner. All Penelos and Clynes. Like that is the rotation I've been getting from half off pulls

How bad is the S3 boss? So far, the trash encounters in S3 seem to be considerably easier than S1 or S2. No major traps encountered yet on the way to the boss.
I'm looking at this as farming lapis. All these free rank ups are yielding lots of lapis for future investment. Targeting reaching Rank 70 by the end of Thursday. That would be rather nice. Those last 30 ranks at normal rates are going to take a really long time, so no worries about hitting the cap anytime soon.
Also, 80 max stamina is really nice for being able and actually doing real life activities (like work and sleep; who knew?).

Yep, all my stamina after work is going straight into exploration. I forgot how good it was for Megicite and Megacrysts.
I do exploration when I have the time to sit down and mop up all the xp it offers (I don't just hit the points and exit). However, I still prefer to get the rank points from dungeons, since megacites are comparatively easier to obtain from other regular events.

I need more friends if anyone willing to add me. I do not have OP characters yet so don't expect much

Sent you a request. I rotate through a couple leader units, so hopefully one of them helps you out.
TIL Android lapis will transfer between emulators if you use the game google account. I had 250 lapis sitting on a Nox install on my work PC that I thought was gone until they fixed it, but I installed MEmu at home last night and that 250 lapis was sitting there. Feels good to be close enough to done with this event that I can overnight TM farm again!
I still have lots of other work to do though... most of the explorations and quests in the new continent haven't been completed at all. I need to at least do the explorations to grab the stuff in the chests. I'm also behind on some old earth keys so I can't get the gale ones. I also am running low on awakening mats and want to do the Vortex int more.
I almost want a week or 2 of no events actually.
Pull status: still no banner units. Today was Garland which is cool because I didn't already have him

Yeah, Lapis should transfer between all like OS devices so Apple to Apple....Android to Android the only exception is if you get it through the Amazon store the app has to be loaded from there. So the app from the Playstore can't use the Lapis from Amazon. I have three instances of the damn game because of that lol.

I feel that my awful pulls are to help someone else get something good. 
Today ended up being Cerius on main and Luna on alt. Ugh. Luna. Pulled her all the time while trying to get a good alt account to roll with. So it's not surprising they felt like I should have her again. But for real this time.
Kind of wish I knew next weeks banner. The move from Tues to Thurs sucks. I only want to know whether I should continue to save my tickets or try for an Agrias. Though the way my luck has been rolling, my Exdeath last week is the luck I had for the rest of the year used all up in one pull.

I just started this because I heard that at some point some of my favourite characters might get added. The thing I'm wondering is if I should reroll until I get a 5* unit? I would like Ramza but I'm not really sure what units are good in this game.
I pulled Rydia but she is only 4*.
I pulled Rydia but she is only 4*.
BE has made me wonder if FFVIII was really that popular. It certainly always seemed like the most polarizing of the FF games but I didn't know that directly equated to popularity. VII and VIII are all that's left right?
probably going to stop being f2p when my emo man crush Squall drops
If you pull a Rydia, Kain, Vivi, Galuf, Krile, Shadow, Sabin, Edgar, Penelo or Fran, and you are happy because you are getting your memorable favorites of past FF games and you will rock with those units here...
You will not. Those units are awful.
Thankfully they aren't my favourites though I do like some of them. I like Tactics so I'm going to reroll for Ramza.
I mean VII hasn't been released either in this game and that's obviously not because it isn't popular. I would think they're saving them to bring more people in and since I swear I read somewhere they will at some point be added that's why I'm going to start playing this.

Some people couldn't care less about unit power or the min/max crap some of us do. A lot of people in here talk about having to HAVE TMR's (You don't) and having nothing but top tier units (You don't). Are those units good? No, no they aren't but at least with current content you can clear it with some of them. I actually have a mostly shit tier party in terms of power I use from time to time because it has some of my favorite units in it. Edgar/Vivi/Celes/Freya/Garnet. I have been able to clear everything with them with no issues.
Those are so not worth it! Leaving them here. Although I don't know how many of the materials to get for future upgrades? Hmm
I did that too
How do you fare in ADV Colosseum, ELT Tactics event and Dirnardo continent bossess fights with these units?

Squall will be the first 10* unit....
Until Cloud and his OP butt comes along and gets a 12*

I have cleared the final Story boss just to see it was rough but I was able to do it. I haven't tried the newest collo as I am still getting through it just entered the S rank but I have cleared INT S-5 with it. Elite FFT probably not at least not without an OP Light friend which makes it kind of irrelevant anyway as people with even some good units have had to do that. Or I could just give that entire party Blizzara/Ice Rod and probably chain it. Maybe I will try it to see. You missed the point of my post though. Some people just don't care about that stuff and they just want to play the game to have fun and have some nostalgia. It drives me nuts when we all act like you have to have TM's and stuff because you don't. Granted I farm them and I chase powerful units but I am not gonna tell someone that doesn't they are doing it wrong.
I understand your point, but you have to understand that we are in a closed community that pretty much plays it as hardcore as possible, so the mentality here favors having the best possible units and equipments.
Nothing wrong with playing with your favorites and just having fun appreciating the nostalgia from the events etc. There is no point in discussing how other people should enjoy their games.
Mirage Vest is so OP. I mean, I still don't think I have NEEDED it (only at ADV-A-5) but it just makes everything laughable. Provoke - Mirage - Heal - Heal repeat
I was saying the opposite. I was insinuating that FFBE is saying 7 and 8 are comparable in popularity, that is why they are holding them both

11499 shards I've collected now. I have already bought the following:
10 Panther Fangs
10 Demon Wings
All Star Quartz
All tickets apart from the overpriced last 3
I'm tempted to buy the 3 skills, as I presume they won't be around after the event...
I have no idea which and how many of the awakening materials to get though.

Only if you spend lapis I'm afraid. You'd have to start running ELT non-stop from now until the maintenance
