Oh neat, I finished Adventurer IV.
Grats!

Thanks! I guess it would be possible to get the last one before the end of October.
Well, I held out hope until the last possible moment, but yes, it's literally just a dead week with no new content or a new banner. The first such week since the game's release.
Dreadful.
gumi : lots of players have lost interest this past month, most of the events have been trash and boring, no moogles in this raid AND we fucked them up with nier.... What could we do this week to regain some trust/morale back?
also gumi: dead week!!!! Great idea!
Hey guys, I have a couple of questions:
- For those using NOX, how exactly do you setup your macros for TM farming? I tried several times to record a macro for farming the Earth Shrine but it keeps failing because the timings are never the same and eventually (and by eventually I mean by the 2-3rd loop) it just breaks. The only time it managed to work for some bizarre reason for 5 loops, the game FC'd on me.
- How do you go about getting those 900+ ATK / MAG characters? I mean I have a 6* lvl 80 character who's a squishy 187 ATK and 215 MAG, while you guys have lvl 100 A2's with 1000 ATK.
I still love this game but hate it too...I cant go to sleep before using up all my Orbs, any NRG I want and clearing up Expeditions, plus ensuring I do the Exploration daily. And I stress out about Orbs and NRG being full in the day if Im busy . Sometimes I wont leave the house before using up some Orbs.

yes it is. never used it personally though. I rely on nox, which works very well.
I guess I'll try reddit's macros since my own suck arse.You can set your own macros up if you want but as a lazy person I generally just utilize whatever the most recent set to come from Reddit is. You can find the current set here, and if you need help with something specific, the people in those threads are generally pretty helpful. Depending on your technological inclination it might be a bit daunting but if you just do things step-by-step it should be fine.
You're a fresh account and most of the remaining people here have been playing for a year, give or take a month or three. Hitting those high ATK/MAG values is a combination of trial rewards and TMs, and we've had many moons and many moogles with which to accumulate the latter.
Once you get macros rolling, you'll want to identify your highest value TMs and start on them. The game is fairly generous with moogles these days so I'd probably just throw them straight in to priority units. If you screenshot or write out your unit list, we can help you figure out who's priority.
Considering I didn't even know Materia existed in this game, it seems I've got a long way to go.To get 900+ ATK/MAG, you need to fully increase the relevant stat with pots and have materias that increase relevant stat by 50%. Many of these are TMs.

This is everyone I actually have right now.

Mobile games don't really cut into "real games" for me... It's more my crippling addiction to Heroes of the Storm that I don't play anything else lol. Though I did finally finish Persona 5 last night despite buying it on launch day. Sadly would not recommend it despite Persona 4 being one of my favorites ever. Maybe I was expecting too much from it. I also played through Uncharted 4 recently (renting games from the library is pretty dope) but really didn't care for it either.I don't actually mind the lack of content. I also need to do the Erinyes trial, though I'm (still) not going to bother with Malboro.
Basically -- like someone said earlier, this is now a "back pocket time waster." I'm actually, shockingly, getting back into other "real" games, like Pokemon; I hope to finish Uncharted 4 this weekend too.
(If you recall in OT3 I think, I said I'd spend $250 for Noctis, and I did: I bought a PS4 Slim, and UC4 was part of the bundle.)
Wait, Ludmille? But she only reaches 5*, is she really that good? Also Sozhe was my free pull for the day, a happy guy is me.Is that all of your character? to get the most ATK, then you want to farm
Leon TMR : Dark Knight Soul (30% attack if you use sword and 20% with heavy armor), unfortunately Prishe can't use sword and heavy armor
Shine TMR : Quick Assault (30% ATK, and evade 10%). Best option for you now.
Emperor TMR : whatever its name (give 20% ATK and HP). Very useful
unfortunately you the most important TMR that give Dual Wield ability (able to equip 2 weapon). Dont worry though, keep playing and you will surely get them (Gilgamesh, Zidane, Carmilla, or Abel)
my recommendation for farming (ATK Focused) : Shine, Shine, Sozhe, Ludmille and Prishe
MAG focused : Ace, Ashe, Ludmille, Veritas of the Water, and Zyrus. (looking at your team, this seems better)
Sold. I was wondering if they did anything else so I didn't sell them. Got 500k gold.Sell those King Gil Snappers, they're useless other than for giving you lots of money.
Never mind, wilstreak, I understand why you'd reccomend Ludmille now.Materia is just what some people call abilities, for the record, not something you slot into equipment.
wilstreak's post was spot-on in terms of what you should be TMing. Ludmille deserves a special mention - her TM is Dualcast, which is extremely valuable on Refia, who is the most well-rounded healer you have access to right now. With any luck you'll eventually outgrow her but it's probably still a great investment at where you are in the game.

Fair points. I was asking because you recommended a 5* max for an ATK build. But yeah, I've already made a party for ATK (Prishe, Shine x2, Ludmille, Sohze), a party for MAG (Ace, Ludmille, Ashe, Zyrus, Water Veritas), an official anything-goes party (Ace, Ashe, Zyrus, Prishe, Setzer to be replaced by Sohze) and a TM leveling party (Shine x2, Leon, Ludmille x2). Hopefully I'll be able to farm these things relatively fast now that I have a working script. But man, that's a whole lot of griding for 5 TM rewards...Something to keep in mind is that base rarity/max rarity and TM quality do not have an exact relationship.
One of the best TMs (up to a certain point), Dual Wield, comes from Zidane, a 3* base who is a 5* max (at least until next year when GL gets FFIX 6* forms). Lightning, a 5* base, has a TM that I would rather sell than sacrifice the equipment slot to possess.
Even within rarity tiers there's a ton of variation. Do not look at this list as anything approaching gospel, but it's generally accurate as an overview. You don't need to level up units you're TMing, since you're killing literally the weakest enemies in the game with them, so how good the units are or aren't isn't generally relevant.

At this point I don't think DC is a TM worth farming anymore
Most useful mages have it innately
I was hoping you'd say that. I'm putting all I've got on Ace (mogs, pots, TM farmings, etc.) because he's my first and only 6*. He's at 17.5% right now. The rest of my active units are at about 6%, maybe less.In your case I'm not really sure who would be the best unit to focus on. Prishe will be hamstrung by your lack of Dual Wield and your selection of caster TMs is maybe a bit better overall than physical ones. I'd be tempted to say put your effort into Ace.

Gumi heard "farming" and they thought "industrial levels"...
Thanks for the sharing of the A2's. No longer need it, going to Setzer cheese this plant and spit on his corpse this weekend when I have time.

Since I don't have a single fully TM'd character, I guess leveling anyone already mentioned as having a good TM bonus should work like a charm for me. Right now I'm with Ace, 2x Shine, Leon and Ludmille. I could swap one Shine for an Ashe.While Ace's TM is pretty good (MAG+30% MP+20% ability), long term you might be better served with Ashe or Veritas of Water's TM (MAG+30% MP+30% accessory and MAG+40% rod, SPR+40% robe respectively).
/edit: some reasons:
+MAG% accessories are relatively rarer, and Ashe's gives more overall benefit. You get lots of MAG+30% abilities from trials and such
+40% is better than +30% and the SPR bonus Ace gets from robes will make him sturdier. MP is useful but not as useful as HP/DEF/SPR, especially for Ace who can regen MP indefinitely with his ability.
One key thing is that since TMs are things you get disconnected from the character themselves, they can be equipped to anyone... so you can be TM farming "for" Ace by running characters like Ashe, VoW, Zyrus and using moogles on them.
How far are you through the story? Beyond using NRG at night or when you're busy with other things, I don't know that TM farming is better than story advancement early on.
Rikku is set up for you.
Just levelling Minfilia at the moment and wondering which units to level next. My current 6* units:

Also I've just traveled to Dirnado, so I guess I'm pretty early on in the story.
Geez, that's a good lineup already. Setzer or Ilias could be useful in certain specific scenarios. Amelia is very nice for the arena. Xon helps for farming materials. Water Veritas will eventually have some dope awakened abilities. Guess I'd start with those if you planning on leveling them all anyway.
I aim to level every 6* capable unit to max as they're handy for expeditions. But wondering if there are any gems in there I should prioritise?
All this TM talk has me wondering. Just how many TM's has everyone farmed?
48 TMs completed saved, but I've completed much more. I only keep one character.
