He has that ring? and only 918 attack... odd >.>; did a quick one with no esper and hit 973... huh, wonder what he has on the materia side now.

Holy shit how is that even possible

Actually surprised he didnt crack 1K atk

He didn't crack it because he has maneater on his materia slot and he isn't on my friends list so he doesn't benefit from Espers. I'm Rank 150 so I get to see all the whales at the bottom of my list. Even my Tidus hits 965, so Tidus with Ring of Dominon would be over 1k easy.
 
500 Lapis left to farm for my guaranteed 5* 11 Pull - i should be able to do it by tomorrow. Kinda hope is get Ramza.

So i wanted to ask for some general input - these are my relevant units.

DPS - all 6*
Lightning
Gilgamesh
Firion
Chizuru
Yun

Other - all 6*
Rikku
WoL/Cecil
Refia w. Dual Cast
CoD
Ling
Seven
Minfilia
Xon

Unit i could or will be able to evolve to 6*

- Terra
- Agrias
- Garland
- Maxwell
- Seria
- Snow
- Mercedes
- Leon
- Sozhe
- King
- Beach Time Fina
- Luka
- 2x Setzer
- 2x Zyrus

Right now Gilgamesh is my strongest hitter w. Dual Wield Excalibur and the Katana which name i just forgot lol. Since im missing the new Top Tier DPS like Orlandu and co. - what would be the best friend to hook up with in combination with Gilga ?

Also in general what would be a good Team combination ? Refia + WoL + Ling + 2 DPS ?

And from those 5* units which 1 or 2 should be priority for evolving ? Or should i skip them all for now ? I know that Agrias will be useful once she gets a 6* version as a Mini Orlandu xD

Edit:

@sasuke_91

Wow..congrats :eek:

I'm not super informed, but if those were my units, I would run:

2x Setzer
WoL
Rikku
Refia


I base that entirely off being able to chain Setzer for DPS and the rest for solid defense and survivability.

I currently run:

2x Orlandeau
WoL
Rikku
Tilith

Ahhh that makes sense, I'm like I'll subtract the esper jic, but I had it breach 1k with it.

What do
 
So I haven't really played the game since a month after launch, I logged in for bonuses/events but that's about it and then stopped a couple of months ago since I had to factory reset my phone and didn't bother reinstalling. I have the following units :

http://imgur.com/a/uG3P2

(I was levelling some of the main party when I quit, they levelled up vita expeditions over the past week)
And loads of trust moogles (it says I can't hold more) & random pots.
Can someone suggest what units I should throw them on?

Also, where can I read up on thr story since I don't remember much since picking up the blonde girl.

Also is there a list of missable/hidden places like ifrit?

Thanks!

If all DLC came tied to $13 figurines, I'd consider all DLC to be free

Thanks man, i kinda dropped out before the Chaining Meta really took over. So Setzter is a good unit for this ? I only have 2x 4* versions so he will need alot of exp to get up there.

Who would be the finisher in that scenario...the friend unit ? Gilga is my best unit so far so ill try to include him somehow but have to do more tests first.

Does Setzter need specific TMs to be good ? I dont see myself farming TMs anytime soon again tbh lol. This was on part that make me drop the game in the first place.

I feel like this game is screwing with me. Is there a secret to making the blue butterflies spawn? I've been running BGN and ADV over and over and all I get are reds. I just need 1 more blue one to finish making razzamatazz.

just do pro 1x, skip whatever you dont need to touch

i feel this is wrong, i was missing a lot of butterflies for some odd reason, i did 8 or 9 beg runs and after awhile no matter what color i touched the starting one, it would only pop out 1 red. moving up to higher difficulties solved it.

Nobody shared this month's login rewards?

Oh shit! Free 10+1 pull!

I guess I can start saving tickets all over again since I got Rikku this morning. Wasn't a bad Anniversary. Ended up with Tidus, Rikku, Ramza, Shine No.7 and Xon No.3. Not bad pulls.

Want to get Ayaka next and a couple of others on my list...

  • 5* Dark Veritas for my Dark Element Team (DKC, DKC, Elza, Dark Veritas, Ramza) - TM has +30% ATK Greatsword, +30% ATK Heavy armor (For Cid?)
  • 4* Wind Veritas x 2 or more if it's stackable - TM has +50% ATK Spear, +25% to Jump damage. (For Aileen)
  • 5* Duke - TM has +30% ATK Lance & +30% ATK Helm (for Aileen)
  • Marie (For resistances)

Daily - Jean
Tickets - Maria, Camille

Hey Zunja, crazyivan, could I have some of what your having?

Same as Sasuke's post

Wilhelm is a clear upgrade over Cecil at tank
Rikku is a clear upgrade over CoD at support
Firion or Fohlen is a clear upgrade over Exdeath for damage.
If you have any Fohlen friends, you can chain them with yours.

Minfilia is a flex pick on fights where you need high resist to a limited number of elements, so level her too.

Alright, super mega long update and response from the last few days.


  1. Congrats to everyone who got good pulls (especially CrazyIvan, glad you pulled that back).
  2. Zera sorry your pulls were trash :(
  3. What did ya boi over here get? Absolute trash lmao. Apart from my rainbow. There were on 5 units I wanted (not including Tidus) and this was one of them.
    0E1EuOEl.jpg
  4. Took me 19 tickets to get Rikku.
  5. I somehow managed to get a success in 2 Expeditions where I had 40% chance lol. Both for burst pots. Good times.
  6. This raid is trash lol. You get way more raid coins but takes 5 times as long to spend them for nonsense rewards. Ever since the big 2.0 update this game has not been good.
  7. Still haven't got anything back from support about my deleted king cacs. Sent another message.
  8. [JP] Man the raid was stingy with moogles. I spent around 300k coins and didn't get a completed TM. GL definitely has it down in that department.
  9. [JP] Basch looks sick!
  10. [JP] Nothing really seems that good with the mog king. Will get standard stuff.
And that's it for my update. Took me so long to read the last 15 or so pages lol. Got a few responses that need posting too lol.

NOOOOOO! First guardian down! I'm sorry :(

Guardians...I like that. The 5(?) Guardians of Exvius GAF lol.

Er, is this new? Maybe a hint that Noctis is getting boosted to JPN levels soon??

His warp moves now mention the 1 one close quarter warp attack, which is a move exclusive to Japan and nerfed from Global.

Hmm interesting. I was thinking about what they could do to him the other day. I think we all need to accept that JP Noctis and GL Noctis are just different units. There's no simple way to buff him up to JP standards. I thought Close Quarters Warp Break would have been an enhancement of Warp Break but maybe they will stealth add it. I don't agree with it though as I think it opens the flood gates and I would rather Gumi stand by their decision of having a GL Noctis.

I"m surprised to hear that all Gumi employees did not have Tidus waiting for them in their mailbox bro. Gumi treating ya'll bad?

;-)
Lmao!!

Whelp I now have nothing to do in the game outside of the arena/expeditions/raid.

And that is why we play JP lol. That being said my pulls have been trash over there recently :(


:eek: But your Ace is legendary :( end of an era.

But seriously congrats!!

[JP] Did 2 5k pulls. Got 2 rainbows. Both off banner. Both do nothing for my team. Lulu and Runera. Got 1 banner unit out of 22 pulls lol. Gacha at it's finest.

Did some 4* ticket and regular ticket pulls. Nothing special.

Used 5* EX ticket we got earlier -- got Cloud.

Did 5k pull on FF XII banner -- got Elfried.

So now I'm half way there to a full TDH set. This might be a better outcome than getting on banner units, lol. Guess I'm gonna have to pull on upcoming Elfried/Cloud banners now.

Daily was a gold that turned to rainbow. Queen. Fuck. I got her as an extra in my guaranteed 5* too, which means I got two Queens within 10 pulls. Now I've got wisdom to spare and my advise to you all is don't pull freaking Queen!

Basch is incredible, best unit in the game holy shit. Dude heals full health every turn after taking all the mitigated damage by himself, save your lapis for him already guys.

Also, 50% breaks lmao.
 
Definitely pull your dailies and on the last day go for her if you didn't get her already.

Since Basch was mentioned having 50% breaks, who is THE BEST breaker in the game? Breaking is often very important so I'm wondering which unit is deemed best to do so. In JP that is, so I can save lapis and tickets for them.
 

Syntsui

Member
I used up more saved up resources than I wanted but I got Basch last night in JP. He's a beast.
Can you even do the 40 NRG level with bonus units only? That level is insane, not even with my main team I could do it lol.

I wonder how people will react when we get that difficulty here, we won't be able to carry it with an entire bonus unit like we always do.

Stuff like 9S TMs (300% aoe chains) and Rikku's pouch TM (aoe breaks) are invaluable for stuff like this.

I've got 2 bonus units rocking 9S TMs and one with Rikku's pouch. That takes care of the chains and breaks. Last bonus unit (Vayne) does buffs and I kept Tidus around as the last party member to just make it an easy 'repeat' press clear.

Usually bring 100% bonus units as friends, but can't really rely on them to fill a role.

Is the reward worth it considering how little bonus you are taking?

Gumi answered the ticket, I guess they will look into everyone's account and give us the crysts, as long as we contacted them.

Dear Player,

Apologies for the inconvenience. Regarding your concern, may we ask if you could provide us your exact player ID (set of random numbers)? So that we could further check and verify it with the team. We are looking forward to your response, thank you.

In the meantime, I will now be leaving this conversation as "Resolved". No worries, you may still respond to this conversation anytime. Rest assured that we will attend to your concerns as quickly as we can.

Regards,
The Final Fantasy Brave Exvius Global Operations Team.

What do you mean?

I'm only running 1 non-bonus unit -- Tidus. The rest are bonus units with 9S and Rikku TMs.

Only got 4* bonus units myself, so 75%*4+100% from friends.

But I think people did the calculations and it's worth running 40 en one even if you have like 2 bonus units, since the bonus monster encounter rate seems to be higher and there are no lower tier bonus monsters (no bombs)

Was this with in-game support or email?

Oh right, I misread that. I will stick with the prior stage anyway, I'm not that updated with TMs to run the 40 NRG yet. At least the bonus enemies appear very often, it's almost like the BF event we just had on Global.
