Exactly why I still haven't spent anything. What you get in return just feels insulting, even though I love the game. I'd throw them some money if there was ever something that felt reasonable, but for now I'd rather just roll with what I end up with (which in my case is quite a lot somehow).
Wise words
I have to agree that the lapis prices are outrageous though, for a mobile game.
Ohhh *checks*.
Thanks for the heads up.
Daily pull: Refia (it's been well over a month or more since I last saw a Gold daily
)That was fast. One hour faster than they mentioned. Its been like this after that fiasco. Good thing

Fucking DKC Troll strikes again. Outside of Death Bringer he's of no use right now. When enchancements become available that's another story.
Hey Iam using mine...
In a TM team
.Atleast I have GIL ready for enhancements:
My condolences to your wife... and my pre-emptive condolences to everyone who will pull Ace, Delita, DKC, and Queen tomorrow. Rest in peace, lapis.
With raijin scroll (now thunder god plan) dkc is actually very good.
But again, if you have that TM means you have am orlandu and probably dont need dkc in your team xd
Beside me, I think DRob is the only one who would like to get Ace
.Granted, not sure if I want 2 Ace
. But it wouldnt be end of the world.DrROBschiz

i have this weird suspicion that after they introduced the crystal changes that they didnt leave the pool normalized like golds and blues are
im seeing a lot of off banner rainbows pop into dkc and marie
i cant prove one way or another since its already so rare to get a rainbow in the first place...

On banner hits for Reddit are still being reported the same outside of Sheera Gate
On the cost, I do feel like a pull should be around 1$. Even using Amazon, it will turn out to be a bit of a buck for the daily and closer to 2.50 per pull.
Is Reflect (Marie's) ever really a useful mechanic? I am sure it is but I don't understand how to use it. Is it the same as the full fledged games where I cast Reflect on my team then have everyone cast black magic off of it and it returns with amplified damage?
Is it ever key in upcoming trials or anything big?

depends on the enemy
the last few tough bosses tend to use abilities or physical
its been awhile since we had some mage boss that uses reflectable spells and we likely wont
Add me to the list of people who would pay if the value was there. Even considering all the time I've dumped into the app, I can't justify what they're asking for. I get that the whale model is tried and true, but I have to think there's a better way.
You're totally right, I'm irrationally excited for the chance due to nostalgia and the wait.
I have a ~45% chance at him too, hoping lady luck favors me.
Guess I should consider myself lucky; I pulled Y'sh on my third raid pull of ~2500. I don't plan on stopping the grind until the moogle (about half-way there now), so I'll probably get there eventually.

I did get a Delita from the PC banner yesterday -_-

My long term goal right now is trying to hoard 35k+ lapis and as much tickets as possible for the Onion Knight, I have seen JP video and he looks incredibly crazy.
So I'll just do dailies for great 5* units and dailies/tickets for Setzer/Rikku/Ashe/Rasler.
Currently at 19k lapis and about 40 tickets, just hope I won't have rage pulls or YOLO moments like last year x)

I wouldn't mind any 5* base as a "surprise, your daily is a rainbow!" result, but if I'm dropping 10+1 pulls and my rainbow crystal is not Orlandeau, but Thunder God Aceidolfus, I'm gonna cry blood.

I'm getting him on tomorrow's daily CONFIRMED.

I have saved up some lapis for Orlandu but a lot of you guys have put me off pulling tomorrow. I think its wise not to and wait for a banner that actually is worth it with more than one unit that is good.
My odds are pegged at 62.8% (74 tix/35,000 lapis)
I'm not pulling on this banner beyond getting 1 or 2 units for the event. I want to keep eking out a ticket profit bit by bit until Tidus/Rikku banner, then go all out. Hopefully I'll have enough left after that for Ashe and Rasler.
If I land all 4 of those, I'm set for life, right?

Its a really bad banner
Ill be ticket pulling and dailies only so i have some bonus units
We are entering the (easy) elemental chaining meta, anyone with 7+ hit skill will be amazing.
Rasler is better than Ashe for this, I just want her for personal preference.

To be fair, Orlandeau is an outstanding unit for a very long time.
The problem is that to "balance" out how outstanding Orlandeau is, the rest of the banner ranges from very mediocre to outright awful.
-- Soleil is only situationally good **after** enhancements. Right now, she only has a very niche argument for use as a very "poor person's" Ling for her debuffs, as a consolation unit for those who didn't pull her during her limited banner. In terms of her buffs, Refia/Luka, and the absolutely **free** Minfillia blow her out of the water.
So, for the upcoming banner, Soleil is only useful as an pretty-to-look-at bonus unit.
-- The 2 3*s are quite bad, and only Lawrence has a marginally useful TM as a "poor person's" Brave Suit.
To sum it all up, there's a 0.5% chance of pulling a Hope Diamond, and a 99.5% chance of pulling a Korok Seed. That's why people are posting the warnings about the banner starting tomorrow.
Yes. This is a much better call than spending everything - or, honestly, anything - on this banner. Even if you subtract Tidus from that equation, you will be sitting very pretty for the foreseeable future. I still believe FF10 or FF12 are the best banners to go all-in on, inasmuch as any banner merits that strategy.
Just always try to go into things with a clear mind. Is this lapis I'm spending better used towards (5/10/15/20/etc.) TMs? If I've cleared Gilgamesh and I'm done with Ifrit, am I going to have any need for Orlandeau for the next month? Would I rather buy NieR:Automata instead of a lapis bundle to replenish my stocks after I bottom myself out with nothing to show for it but 75% towards Lawrence's TM? Shouldn't I save my tickets for Easterakshasa?
The ultimate question to ask yourself before going all-in on any banner is this one: am I okay with receiving nothing of value for my expenditures? On other banners, silver and even bronze exists. On this banner you have gold and then three serrated soup can lids.

Goodluck to all pulling during Orlandugeddon. 1 10+1 all my tickets and a daily everyday is all they will get out of me this time. Those other units are just too ass for me to waste resources on. At least the PC had those moogles that got me like 30 more TMs done.

Exactly!
Its insane just how bad the banner units are given the units you can get for free from the Raid
Hell these units arent even good for new players. This was an opportunity to keep global banners interesting and they dropped the ball in favor of hosing players chasing orlandu
this is a trap banner in the perfect sense of the word

I will do Dailies and use tickets but nothing more until next banner.
Once the next really good banner arrives there is still a chance to pull Orlandu
