I'm almost tempted for one last 5k. Mainly because I dunno if I'll be pulling for a while. I want OK, but with getting 2B this time, I don't feel an absolute need. Especially since I don't even have Tidus to team up with him.

 

[Rixa]

Meanwhile Iam using Lapis to raid lol.

 

[Muku]

So... I did the one more 5k pull...

x1 9S!!!!!! Thank god. Was officially my last pull!!


Edit: Enough trust moogles to be 80%. :3

Hell YEAH!!!!! Congrats, took more than you wanted but glad you got him!!!!!!

 

[Muku]

Thank you guys!

It took more than I wanted... but to be honest, I don't feel bad about it. It breaks my streak of not getting limited time Golds. And I dunno when I'll be dropping down that kind of lapis again, and with story still left to do (haven't done the last expansion or two[?]) I know I can make it back up. And being so close to finishing it... yeah! Also puts him on my list of stuff to level up.

Edit: Also realized I'm 87% or so on 2B's Trust. Will be refreshing tonight if I have to. I will get that Katana.

 

[indigo-cyclops]

Wait. You have no eve? How is that possible. I feel like that's all they give out.

Haha actually I have 1 Eve I already maxed, I just wouldn't mind another. I got lucky with 9S and got 2 right away! I just hate to see these moogles go to waste, but that's how they get ya.

Congrats Muku! Guess I'm up lol...

Daily was Bedile, so much for the 2B / A2 dream! Now to dig through 300k more raid coins (did it once at 300k already)

Congrats Muku! It's nice to see a happy ending!

Is anyone here planning on pulling a few times for Light Veritas? I'm about 50/50 on it right now, but if there won't be any friend units to chain with, that tilts me into the "don't pull" category a little more easily.

Dailies and I'm hesitant on that. Nier fucked me up man. More than Orlandu or Trance Terra.

I will be pulling, but not specifically for her. Aiming for both 4*s but will give my usual 20 tickets on this banner. If I get her though that's cool, I liked her in the story and she seems good. My only issue is I've sold every Hope I've received because I passionately hate that unit in this game lmao.

Thank you.. OMG Good luck! (I see you couldn't help yourself... LOL... SORRY! :O Haha.)

/sends 9S to go help with pulls

Loool. My TM farming just finished and thought I could continue the luck train. I'm glad I didn't waste 5k lapis on that nonsense.

Will probably do dailies in hopes of Wind Veritas but certainly no more than that.

 

[Call me YHWH]

Is there a good way to deal with the old story missions that ask you to do 3 LB during them?

Or getting the really specific moves they want performed?

I had thought that making a story character only party would do it, but I'm not sure if that's what it takes or not. I hate leaving behind so many half completed missions on those islands.

Attack enemies one at a time with all your units to build the LB's faster. Try not to use units that counter or someone like Olive with her mortar.

 

[GG-Duo]

Last 10+1 on this banner...

I finally got that second 9S. It's over!

The tricks for PB missions is to target one enemy at a time. That way your OP team generates crystals but doesn't clear the screen. You can do that across two screens and then unload on the last.

Character skill missions are bullshit, haven't done them. 10 lapis aren't worth it (yet)

 

[EDarkness]

Glad wifey was able to get 9S and I hope everyone else who wants him gets him before this banner is up. Good luck, guys.

Looks like I'm not going to be able to get enough Trust Moogles for 9S's TMR. Gonna try to do some refreshes to help get there, but I'm not holding my breath. I hope I can get close enough to not need a ton of regular Trust Moogles to get it. The sad part is I have both A2 and 2B's TMRs. I get those ALL the time. I had them completed LONG time ago. Unfortunately, I haven't gotten Eve's or 9S's TMRs at all. I figured Eve would have been easy to get so I kept a couple of him to try and get his twice, but no luck at all. It sucks. Soooo many Beastlords and Virtuous Contracts, though. I only have two of 210's TMR and mainly because I kept getting her doing all of my pulls to get 2B. Getting her Trust Moogles from the raid has been even harder than I figured. Oh well, maybe with these refreshes over the course of the day will net enough moogles to get Eve's or 9S's TMR.

I hope everyone else has had more luck than I have on this.

Have faith. I was pretty far from finishing A2 and my 9S, but the gods decided to smile on me for a few runs and I got a bunch of A2/9S moogles in a row. That's after thousands and thousands and thousands of points of nothing.

Well, I feel dumb now haha. I'll do that going forward. A lot easier to manage than a story based team!

Nah that sounds pretty much typical.

The stuff above and some moves and passives boost LB meter. Chizuru is one of the ones I used for those kinds of missions when I was first starting.

 

[robotuw]

Damn, I'm about to level up. I was hoping it could wait until the story event tomorrow but nope. Maybe I'll do an NRG refresh tomorrow to make up for it.

 

[The Quiet Man]

To answer the question from a few pages ago, I play because my wife and I still find the weekly events and updates interesting. Once either of us lose interest, we'll probably both stop.

 

[facepalm007]

x1 9S!!!!!! Thank god. Was officially my last pull!!

I finally got that second 9S. It's over!

Congrats on the 9S pulls!! His TMR is doing a lot of work on my team at the moment.

Oh yeah... GUMI!! STOP TAUNTING ME WITH YOUR STUPID VC MOOGLES!!

 

[robotuw]

Patriotic Recall #4 will be done later today. WoL looking on like

I'll be able to get his hp up to almost 13k and over 500 def, though I'll probably swap one PR for a mechanical heart and give it to Tilith instead.

Can't complain but man it hurts.

I have nothing but hp +30%, Hill Diggers, Resentments, and Mechanical Hearts. I do have 3 Raslers that I need to put in the oven. The backlog couldn't be more real.

 

[Muku]

Thank you guys!! GAF hasn't led me astray yet. Such an awesome community. You guys are the best!

Edit: Did another 5k, another 2B...

Damn man! LOL... well Congrats!! You can get ready to run an all 2B band group. Y'all would play... heavy metal. XD

At least you got a rainbow. And on banner. My 5k pulls were mostly Uber trash lol. Can't complain though. I got 2B early on without trying. Because 9S playing hard to get.

 

[Alkez]

I can't lol. Grats!

I'm not even joking, I thought of you when I got the second and just said to myself "gacha is nonsense" lol. You really wanted her and had to commit so much to get her, meanwhile I'm trying to get the other one and get two. It's cruel how it works sometimes. I wish I could give you the second and get your money back lol.

Stop!!!!!!! You sound like me. I walked away with 4 2bs and an A2 but that A2 was expensive and NOT worth it!!!!

I haven't committed any money so far on this banner thankfully, and having read all your guys experiences I don't plan to. This has all been from savings. I have 12k left. Contemplating one more ditch effort lol. No more tickets will be spent though.

Awesome, even if it's not exactly what you wanted.

Thanks man. I did really like her in the game so I'm glad I got one, but that second one was a bit of a gut punch. Still, I've seen some interesting stuff with 2 of her (a lot of one shot videos) so I'm interested to see what I can make of this.

Thanks this is true. In terms of general luck I've actually been one of the luckier members here on this banner. 2 2B, 4 9s, 2 Eve, and 250 21O lol.

 

[EDarkness]

Spending tickets going for A2.

Got 2B.

Can't complain but man it hurts.

Edit: Did another 5k, another 2B...

Congrats, man. Granted it's another 2B, but getting another rainbow crystal is hard enough, so that's a win in any case.

I've refilled my raid dots twice now and have yet to get even one Trust Moggle for Eve or 9S. This is getting silly. I've gotten 4 Virtuous Contracts and 2 Beastlords, though. So damn frustrating.

Haha thanks Alkez! If trading were only a thing lol. Grats man, enjoy them. You are right though, it's cruel indeed.

 

[indigo-cyclops]

Man, good vibes in here tonight. Dare I? DO I DARE?!

 

[Alkez]

Congrats, man. Granted it's another 2B, but getting another rainbow crystal is hard enough, so that's a win in any case.

Thanks man. You're right. Both of mine came off the 1% chance crystals so that in itself is kind of crazy. Gotta be grateful for what you get.

I also just realised that I can give the 2 2B Malboro strategy a go now as I can take Rixa's Ace for the imperial.

 

[SOLDIER]

What time in EST does this end?

Might try to do a few story quests for more 500 lapis.

Don't do 500 pulls. Even Nier isn't worth it. (but to answer your question, the day ticks over at 4:00am EST)

 

[AdawgDaFAB]

What time in EST does this end?

Might try to do a few story quests for more 500 lapis.

4 am.

I'm in a similar boat. I have 4755 atm, but I've beaten every normal story mission. I probably have enough undone explorations to scrounge up the 245 stones. Gonna give it a look later. After this banner, I'm going on a pull hiatus outside of tickets for mog events. May try and save up for the 3% change.

 

[Alkez]

Theory Question: Could I remove my healer from my "main team", add EV purely for his damage mitigation LB, and use a second 9S TM (on a different unit) for the heals (I can get around 1700 a turn). With Rikku's reraise and WoL with Mechanical Heart I'm wondering if this would work on a general basis (obviously each piece of content is different).

 

[Kouriozan]

Goodbye Nier raid, used all my coins and ready to let it go.
Got my 9S and a lot of free 20% HP so it was pretty nice, but the last days of any raid are always starting to be a chore.

For some content yeah.

It's totally going to change in a case to case basis though. For example, I'm finding it comical that the best method to fight the Malboro is to not even use a healer, but spam double Rikkus reraise LB.

Yeah, Malboro seems very similar to The Bloody Moon and that's the way I saw it done (and the way I plan to tackle it tbh). Maybe double ReRaise is the way forward. But losing your buffs is annoying, which is what I was hoping EV could prevent.

 

[Zippedpinhead]

Pulled two more beastlords and my last 9S TM.

So I finished 1 9S TM, 1.5 resentment, 1.5 mechanical heart, a shit ton of Adam TMs, and 90% of a beastlord. Have two more raid orbs by the end of the night but I'm thinking I'm not getting any more moogles.


So many raid coins, so much magicite, so little Trust Moogles...

 

[jasminlovesyoux]

Used my last orbs and last pulls for the raid. Done with it forever. Goodbye Nier banner. I'll never forget you and what madness you instilled in me.

Final count,

11 Vengeful Wrath , next at 80%
8 Mechanical Heart , next at 70%
3 Resentment , next at 60%
4 Pod 153 , next at 55%
3 Virtuous Contract , next at 22%
1 Beastlord. One and done.

 

[NeoCross]

Tempted to do a 500 pull, who knows, might get another 9S!
