Aeris has summon 2 or 3 iirc. I think 2.
oh snap, you're right. Aeris it is! Summon 2*.
Yeah. I'm using Summoner to not only level him and WHM up, but because with Dragon he one shots all 5 at once. I suppose Bladeblitz and Quake would do the same, but I can't afford them
No. 24 is so annoying. One because RNGod hates me (no 5* club represent) so I had to restart like 50 times to get him, then his form with absurd 433 defense takes a lot of time to kill. Also, counter 30% of the time...
I guess you're supposed to use the right magic weakness, but what is the secret to exploit his forms?
And I need to farm Greater Earth Orb urgently. Protectga, I see you.

If you can't alpha strike him before the first barrier goes up, yeah, you're supposed to spam different elements till you get the one he's weak against. Since he starts healing himself at low HP it can get really annoying really fast.
I'm gonna get the Hero Ring, I guess. Should take ~700 stam, or 35 hours worth of recharge and you get a bunch of guaranteed 4* orbs out of it too. Not like there's much else going on anyway.
After that, yeah, flans all the way.

So No.24 isn't the better one to restart for? I'm going to try flan trick if it isn't. xD

No. 24 is for memories
No. 24 for the best run through the dungeon collecting memories.
Flans for a one off fight which gives better EXP/stam than anything in the game (including Sunday's hard dungeon)

Yeah, as others have pointed out, Flan = Exp., No. 24 = Memories.
Here's a reddit topic on maximizing memory per stamina.

So if you get the flans, do you continue down the chain or back out and go looking for the flans again?

Unless you get another set of Flans (if that's possible on the second stage) you'd exit and restart.
Actually yeah that's not bad at all. I think I'll do the same
Yea my rhythm now is, if it's flans, just take it anyway, but otherwise reroll for 24

well, I can now run celes through the flans solo, ohk on auto, that should greatly speed things up to level her. level 30 already. With a regal Gown and Crystal Sword, it is quite easy. Going to get her to 40 then start the memory grind full time. Ideally will use the flans to level everyone to 40 at minimum, but that may be too obnoxious. My named party level is averaged at 40, the others, around 12, so it will be a slog.

5* Genji Helm from tonight's Mythril. Nice!
SE should get the corporate synergy going and do quick special sales for the respective mobile games when we get their events. I was listening to Devil's Lab with the app running while waiting for the stamina to go from 3 to 4 and now I'm jonesing for some mobile FFVI, even if I'm not thrilled with the new graphics.

Exactly! I'm liking this. Feels like you're still accomplishing something when you get a Flan spawn while rerolling.

No. 24 is rare? I have fought it in probably 2/3 of my runs (in Normal dungeon).
Sweet thanks! I'm going to finish getting Celes (Damn stamina lol) and then grind my characters.Yeah, as others have pointed out, Flan = Exp., No. 24 = Memories.

Is there a fair way to get 5* orbs in Japan, or are they still limited?

I thought someone said there was a 4th difficulty of the orb dailies? Maybe I'm mistaken though.

My night basically. I have no excuse not to train up the characters I don't normally use now. XD
I'm talking about rerolling the Hard dungeon specifically for No. 24 to appear as the first enemy. Seems like standard RNG fare.
Soul Sabre's ability seems really circumstantial. Does anyone know how long it lasts? Does it attract enemy magic a la Cover/Guard or do you have to hope for an enemy to nuke Celes?

Yeah there are 4*s in the future, but I've heard nothing of 5*s.

Ohh, yea. AFAIK nothing. They're just rare rewards from events, so you need to muster up everything you have to get them. Maybe they coudl be rare drops from EX bosses, similar to how 4* ones are rare drops from Elite bosses.

Depends entirely on if you have other vi swords or other weapons. You should have a great sword from the previous event, so if you've pulled another couple vi weapons you should combine the falchion. Vi weapons are falling from the sky for me, so it was a no brainer combine, and now have a pretty golden picture to add to the top of my inventory.

Yeah, I wish it would warn you when you sell a 4* rather than a 3*. 3*'s are common as hell, I don't even read the warning anymore.

For all the people that can't find No. 24, it seems like I can't do a run without running into him multiple times. Sounds nice, but it's actually annoying because of his stupid Barrier Change, which drags out the fights endlessly. :/
You need him to be the first fight because each "setup" of the whole Hard dungeon run through is based off the first fight. Thus, if you find No. 24 first, you are guaranteed at least 4000 Memory.

It's good if you can get it, but when you're trying to train up some lower level people, running into him multiple times is a chore. I've got Celes now though so I'm just gonna Flan farm a bit before trying to do some high Memory runs.
Yes.

Just like the other events, the harder the difficulty, the higher the scale. Hard easily eclipses easy and normal gains

Clearing Hard nets way more. 2 run throughs should be enough for Celes.

I had to stop farming memories and get some gil from the daily. I need to upgrade/combine my VI gear. Need more DPS for No. 24. Especially if I'm going to fighting him multiple times in one dungeon.
