Yeah, OK's sword is pretty badass, but that is why I said I would only pull for A2 if her sword is far and away a better AoE than Bladeblitz since my main DPS would generally have it anyway from Odin. Onion Cutter is for OK himself only correct? I still haven't decided if I am going to pull for him. I guess if I don't end up chasing anything outside of 9S on this banner I may go for him since he should (hopefully) not have anyone else added with him.
I also highly doubt we get the Saga banner in Global unfortunately.
Romancing Saga and the other Saga games were released in the US (only RomaSaga remake on PS2 was released outside Japan; I even remember the NeoGaf thread from long ago). It was never popular like it was in Japan, but its a fully-owned SE IP so it shouldn't be difficult or expensive to get the banner out.
Personally, I would love for it to come to the GL, as I grew up on those games and loved them more than the FF main series, but I'm not holding my breath.
Also, yes, Onion Cutter is OK only, but its 520% 16 hit non-elemental. Meaning that two of him can hit elemental and normal chain cap, and you can basically put on required weapons to lenghten nearly any chain, the rest you can leave to finishers.
It's clear as day that this is exactly why this unit was created.
Gumi saw their users excitement and decided to find a way to profit from it, so they diluted the pool intentionally.
This is why I don't give them money and others should stop as well. When the whales change their habits, so will Gumi.
Instead they see themselves being rewarded because the whales will just spend even more because they want to collect every single unit, monetary cost be damned.
Nier was a huge success in JP as well. There was a graph from 2ch somewhere showing the spike in sales for FFBE, so they knew very well that Nier was going to be a massive pay day for them.
The addition of Eve wasn't really for the whales, given that they will be chasing 5*s and get enough 9S regardless of Eve is in there or not; A2 is for the whales.
Eve is just milking it. But I really hope they make Eve into an actually good unit regardless of his TM.
