Glad they used Luneth and the others from FF3 instead of the shitty Onion Knight like in Dissidia and Theatrhythm.

We'll probably still get Onion Onight too, with the job class characters.

Also, Onion Knight > all

 

[CuthbertAllgoodz]

You get a lot of Lesser Lightning Orb along the way to the level where it will be the most needed. Nice on their part!

Edit: 15 orbs to floor 40 if you master them when needed.

 

[diablos991]

Anybody know which level is the flying boss?

 

[CuthbertAllgoodz]

60 and 65.

 

[JNA]

Yeah this is nuts. Cloud + Buster Sword = instakill anything.

I wish I drew one.

Sucks that such a good weapon has to be drawn randomly and get lucky.

It's not so much the Buster Sword. Take any FFVII weapon into the event dungeon, level it to max, and you'll do 80% of the damage the Buster Sword does.

People vastly underestimate how much damage attuned weapons do. A three star attuned weapon will outdamage a five star not-attuned weapon.

I don't have any FFVII weapons though. If I did, this wouldn't be an issue. XD

I hope there is VII weapons along the way in these floors. Could definitely use one or two.

Too bad there aren't any ranged ffvii weapons.

 

[Entropia]

I've done like no prep leading up to this event. How screwed am I? I'm on the 2nd set of floors right now. Would I reasonably be able to complete the entire event?

 

[Einbroch]

I've done like no prep leading up to this event. How screwed am I?

Depends. Getting Tifa is a complete joke. Getting Sephy is sounding like it'll be a challenge.

 

[Yaari]

So wheres that Masamune? I saw saving Mithril even though I probably won't get Sephiroth.
A week is alot of time to progress though, especially at the rate Stamina recovers here. I think I can get pretty far. Is Thursday the dungeon that might give me Lesser Lightning Orbs on the side?

 

[iosefe]

this game needs guns

 

[JNA]

Once I get Tifa. Is it worth it leveling her and having her in the party for the rest of the floors?

 

[diablos991]

Nope. She is melee.

In game tifas glove is on through April 4th so probably after that till end of event

 

[iosefe]

i blew most of my money upgrading a longbow to 3*

no ragrets

 

[JNA]

Nope. She is melee.

Oh.

What floors do the whole ranged only bosses happen?

And does that mean Cloud would be worthless too?

 

[diablos991]

He won't be able to attack 2 of the last 3 bosses.

 

[jshackles]

Awesome event so far. I'm out of stamina now but I'll start back at it in the morning. I almost got to the floor with Tifa. Traded in my mythril to the number gods and got a 3* item.

I'm loving all the lightning orb drops early on - crafted Thundara and almost have enough to hone it.

 

[JNA]

He won't be able to attack 2 of the last 3 bosses.

Ugh...

That means I have to level...Black Mage!

...crap!

 

[MicH]

Jusr ean out of stamina at the stage where Tifa is recruitable. I did cash in five mythrils for a relic and got another 4* Hypno Crown. Really nice piece of armor

 

[diablos991]

TIFA get!

 

[Stider]

TIFA get!

Grats! Need just 2 more stamina to do the boss stage to get her.

Edit: Tifa get!

 

[Prototype]

Just ran out of stamina but this are going smooth in the shinra building so far. Lvl 27ish and just got the final orbs I needed for thundara.

 

[Roto13]

So there's a boss in the new challenge that can only be hit by ranged attacks? None of my current party members can used ranged weapons except I assume Tyro. Rydia has her magic. But that probably won't be enough.

time to bring in the Bard and Ranger

i hope you've been leveling them

 

[Roto13]

I've played enough Final Fantasy to know not to bother to use the Bard.

 

[iosefe]

Then Tyro is your new Bard. i hope you maxed your harp

 

[MicH]

Yeah, I'll probably have to train up Wakka and Black Mage for those bosses

 

[silvermember]

So what party level should you be to at least attempt at getting tifa?

 

[Roto13]

I guess I'll level Wakka and the Ranger, and use Tyro and Rydia since I've been using them anyway. Fifth member can be the White Mage for healing like I've always done.

 

[diablos991]

10 maybe? It was crazy easy.

 

[Roto13]

lol I accidentally used Growth Eggs on the Bard instead of the Ranger.

 

[Hours Left]

It was the game steering you in the right direction.

 

[MicH]

Just maxed out the Boomerang for Wakka (3* ++ 10/10). Gonna work in the Harp next

 

[JNA]

What does the Silver Harp do exactly? I never used a Bard in any Final Fantasy game before.

Not that I'm using one here but apparently I should use it on my Tyro.

 

[DirgeExtinction]

So how does one raise the stamina cap?

And I'm sad I missed the Buster Sword.

 

[kiryogi]

Every 5 Stamina crystals raises your cap

 

[DirgeExtinction]

Every 5 Stamina crystals raises your cap

Ah, thanks. Are they random or do you get them from certain bosses?

 

[HawthorneKitty]

Ah, thanks. Are they random or do you get them from certain bosses?

Check the rewards of each stage.

 

[JeffZero]

Downloaded it.

This is without exaggeration the first and only mobile game of any kind whatsoever that I have attempted to play. Literally ever.

Got through the tutorial. Got a Falchion, a Growth Egg, and... downloaded Tidus and Warrior. Cool. So I guess there's no story aside from a framing device and it's all fight-oriented. Not usually my cup of tea but the goddamn Squaresoft characters and goddamn beautiful soundtrack may just keep me around for a bit. Gotta be up in five hours but I'll log some time on the bus tomorrow maybe. Gotta hear more of dat music.

That's honestly the best way to approach games of this style. I find myself playing a solid session just to blow through my stamina or just a battle or two while waiting for something to finish then go about my day.

 

[MicH]

Actually, I just realized I have a 3* Whip that is ranged too. I'll give Tyro that instead of the Harp

 

[JNA]

The whip is a ranged weapon!?

That changes everything!

 

[Hours Left]

Anyone know a stage that drops harps?

 

[mstevens]

So I just got Tifa and need to start on a plan to get Sephiroth by the end of the event.

I have 23 Titus, 24 Cloud, 24 Kain, 19 Tyro, 20 Rydia, 23 Wakka, 12 Bard

I also have Thundara.

What should I be doing? Just trying to level a Ranger, and get everyone to.. 30? I want to make sure I have a plan in place since this is a limited time thing and stamina is also limited. I'm thinking about just grinding the normal event each day as much as I can to level. Hit the XP day hard.

I don't really have any great weapons yet. Just a couple maxed out 3* swords, and the light staff/harp you get with the story. I've gotten two 5* items but they were both armor (Genji helmet and a robe).

edit: as you can tell, I'm liking my first real mobile experience.

 

[Telosfortelos]

I got my first five star weapon, Danjuro. It's no buster sword, but the damage is vastly superior to anything else I had (it starts at 69). I can't complain.

 

[Negator]

Should I keep these Kazekiri at 2 star so that multiple characters can use them while going into ff5 elite dungeons, or should I just 4 star it and slap it on someone?

Edit: OH GOD I'M RUNNING OUT OF GIL

 

[Blood Diamonds]

Got Tifa, the boss was a really nice challenge.

 

[XiaNaphryz]

Just started earlier today, party is only lvl 14-17. Planning on just getting Tifa, anything else is gravy from the event. Managed to get to her floor block with no issues, ran out of stamina though.
