I really wish there were some filters for sorting your friend list. :/

All my natural 5*s are swords except for the healing book and a minotaur plate. Any specific banner I should wait for to get some rods/staves/armors?

34 pulls. 3 meh 5 stars and rest is junk. There goes most the mythril I have been saving. I should be able to make enough for 1 last 11 pull before the banner leaves for extra sadness.
Yuna's, which should be soon.
I would have added you, but you were already on my list.

How often do you guys accumulate 50 mythrils if your only source of mythril are the events?
I just did an 11 pull and got no 5*.
I am close to having 50 again but am now hesistant to do another pull.

But it's not? We get login Mythril, Classic dungeons give Mythril, Elites give Mythril, Dailies give mythril, etc.

Yeah , I forgot about the daily log in. I cleared all classic and I'm not too keen on tackling the additional Elite dungeons anytime soon because of their high stamina cost.
Have you attempted any elites? Plenty of them are easy if you haven't and it's something to do when you finish events. If it's the newer elites you're avoiding then yeah I can understand.
For 5* stuff, I managed to get RedXIII's 'Diamond Pin' and a weapon called 'Shark'.
Was hoping for One Winged Angel, but I can't complain
If anyone wants to follow, my code is:9MP2
Currently have Cyan with Bushido Flurryset, but will change to RedXIII as soon as I unlock him.

When new worlds go up, that's usually 50 mythril for the taking.
Throw in events, daily bonuses and other extras that appear and you can usuly get close to 11 pulls a month if you horde it.

So the changes with the event compared to Japan. More orbs and less eggs. Usually good exchanges. I'll take losing 5 minor growth eggs for gaining 6 power orbs, 2 lesser growth eggs for 6 non-elemental, 1 growth egg for 6 non-elemental etc...
-Ability to use a common weapon; Knives
-Can actually be level 65
But a character having a 99% chance of being useless (if you do one pull or 100% chance if you don't) is so "fun". Plus, Irvine currently has two things that Red XIII doesn't:
-Ability to use a common weapon; Knives
-Can actually be level 65
Why would you not wait a little bit and do an 11 pull?Used about 45 mythril and all I got was junk
Take that with a pinch of salt. It has in the past had some bits that were completely wrong. I think it has since been edited.

Well Squall Boss Rush wasn't pleasant. Found it a little more tougher than the singular bosses actually. Norg again being way too tanky. Didn't help I felt and was under prepared in abilities with different bosses having different weaknesses and limited spaces. I defo should have took Blind or Intimidate for T Rex instead of an armour break. He attacks hard and fast. Failed to get Silence or one of those Oilboyles but they were still a pain with their attacks even with one silenced. And I needed Death again for Norg cause he just takes too long to crack, to have to wind him down yet further once the pod finally breaks. Managed it with just 2 alive and left the orbs in an attempt to focus attack on him. Still got the summon and I'll have to admit defeat on the growth/summon orb for master.

Yay Red XIII. Nice he's got Black Magic and Combat, though the former is of course quite weak. Need a good weapon for him though

Don't forget his 1* White Magic ability. Super clutch.Yay Red XIII. Nice he's got Black Magic and Combat, though the former is of course quite weak. Need a good weapon for him though
Part of me hopes that somewhere down the road we get core class RMs that basically read "Allows the character to use 4* <school> abilities".
Would open up a lot of cool possibilities. At the cost of some of the more broken RMs like Concentration II/Mana Fountain II of course.

So... What should I do? I need good range weapons and a good support SB.
We have right now a banner which provides a rare weapon (Katana) and an extra rare weapon which also stars an incredibly useful SB (Red XIII's Hairpin).
Next we will get Balthier and Fran's weapons. Then, in a very distant future, we will get Lightning and Sazh banner (and his weapon is a gun, which is rare, and his SB is just as good as Red XIII's).
I guess I should keep my Mythril for Lightning and Sazh banner... Hmmm, decisions.

Finally had a good 11 pull.
Great pull. I need that 5* Rod.

I'm actually behind on my normal dungeons so that's been a good source of them for me.
And the login events too.

I did two 11 pulls (100 Mythril) and I still got 167 Mythril left. I never use Mytrhil for Stamina refresh or things like that, though. And I still have FF3, FF9 and FF12 realms to unlock... I think if you did everything from the beginning of the game you could have around 300-350 Mythril now which is a damn lot. Not pulling the Seph banner because there is only one 5* Rod there. I will wait for a banner with at least two different 5* Rods.
Woke up today and thought "Granaldo farming can't be as horrible as yesterday for me again".
First two fights: No drops. No orbs. No equipment. Nada.
I can't....
Wait for Yuna. It could actually be the next event.

Yuna's rod, because it is a rod and I need a 5* rod. =P
It trades a little mag for mind, but it is still strong:
Full Metal Staff: 111 mag / 56 mnd
Magistral Rod: 101 mag / 113 mnd
The soul break, I don't know how strong it is, but it's AOE holy damage, not support.
Wakka's Ball is also featured. And some random FFX gear.
You can see all banners as they were in Japan and are being translated for global here: http://bantha.org/~dscotton/ffrk.html (Don't fixate on the order of the banners because Dena has been changing it for us, maybe based on the popularity of the games or just simply to get us off guard.)
In hindsight, I should have thrown all my mythril in the Vivi/Garnet banner, instead of just 20. =\ But that's, ok, I just have to wait three or so months until the next Soul Break Celebration...
Bets on Balthier tbqh. Zero XII events so far.
Yeah, they already skipped Baltheir for Sephiroth, but I won't be surprised if they skip it again for Yuna.
The faster pace of events has become troublesome for me at least. Not only because there are only so many minutes on a day, but also because they have already (I assume) permanently skipped two events: 1) Re-issue of the Cecil event, which added Elite dungeons; 2) Another Shinra event with altered dungeons.
They could be repetitive. but that's mythril we're not getting (maybe that's why they have put these login bonus), as well as increased relic rates.
Does anyone know how long it took for Japan to get three free relic draws per day and 5* chance increased to 12%??

Not my screenshot:
This translation are sick? Not really, the original FFVII release called it Touph Ring. We complained Ultros being Orthros so we get what we deserve...

WHEN AM I GETTING A CHANCE TO GET TIFA AGAIN

I think the biggest issue for me is blizzaja, no way will I be creating that if there is a chance it is free. Unless it rains greater ice in the next events.
...
I have one good rod-guard stick, one good staff-judgment staff++, Katana-masamune, sword-zantetsuken, fist-giant gloves. Several light armors and regal gowns and a genii helm, no heavy armor or armors with sbs. I am really hoping for either balthiers or Fran's weapons to give some pop to my range fighters, also want a good spear. I am pretty much ff agnostic with a slight bias towards IV,

The Sephiroth event went up (say at 00:00) and I got a new Roaming Warrior with an LVL40 RED 13... TWO hours later. And with that 5* pin. HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE.

Are debuff success rates tied to a stat or is it an innate percentage based on the ability itself?
As far as we can tell, innate chance. Stats affect (very slightly) debuff duration.
For every Godly pull there are many disappointments that don't get posted about because disappointment.

Record Materia that's useless for the classes that earn them!
Pretty much like Bard RM2
Well, materia that doubles all stats would be useless on Bard.
It depends on the ability to an extent, but generally they just have a flat hit chance. Enemies (unlike characters) have no debuff resistance stat; they are either fully immune or fully vulnerable.
I think the hit rates are fairly comparable between the various classes of ability, e.g.:
Silence Attack: 10%
Silence, Silence Buster: 30%
Silencega: 60%
