On I, which I am working on. Had to wait a few minutes to get enough stamina for the Dark Elf battle.
BTW, I see that they made Faris a Summoner. That is an... Interesting choice.

Probably because Syldra is a summon.
This should be included in the OP

Having my first issue with an elite boss, the Siren.
I can beat her but not getting anywhere close to champion. I've tried all the strategies I've seen online but it's still a slog, and I've got a mostly mid-40s team. This is when it looks like I'll need to level up particular characters just to get by (read: Cloud), but that kinda takes a bit of the fun out of it.

It is a mastery clear reward. Knight's Soul Break item.
Are you sure? I would have sworn it popped up before the mastery screen.
I was like "OMG I HAVE FOUR STAR WHERE"
Then I saw it was Knight's Soul Break item. Meh.
All the more reason to start using him!

I think at this point they are just making up weapons that were in FF12, no way it had this many...
The game had a crapload of weapons.

Man what the heck happened in Mobliz. Somebody got lazy. No trash mobs? They skipped the burning house, but they had you fight on the deserted island? So weird.
And another XII 3* rod. Jesus freaking christ.
Why are you complaining? Humbaba is free wind-element orbs :V

No battle with Ultros on the river raft either, strange choices with FF6.

I finished as much as I can of my dungeon farming guide. AFAIK this is the most up-to-date reference currently about what items and orbs drop where. I decided to do this because I was tired of everything being in Protected spreadsheets that nobody has permission to edit except the owner of the spreadsheet.
Hopefully some more people other than me can come along and fill in the missing holes. What I've been doing is to just play the game as normal, but whenever I enter a dungeon, I look at my drops and see if they're listed on the table, adn if not I add them. With enough people doing this hopefully we can get a complete picture of where everything drops, and then we can move on to looking into the *best* places to farm orbs for the stamina, since not all levels are created equal in terms of drop rates.

Man.
Stamina gravy train ended last night at 72 (after hours of nonstop play) and I've been twiddling my thumbs waiting for it to refill and planning out how to tackle the remaining elites in a way that maximizes the rest of the free refills.
There's definitely an urge to blow $$$ on gems on stamina right after a rush of content like that. Not a strong one, but definitely present in a way similar to after the launch gravy train. Ditto having Mythril roll in for a 11-pull with some leftover.
DeNA definitely know what they're doing lol.
Well, that's the problem right there - everyone wants their own personal reference sheet really, with no actual wiki in the user-contributed, user-curated sense. That's why I'm throwing my lot in on the wikia one. Yeah, idiots will submit wrong/inaccurate information as they always do, but FFRK has enough of a userbase that it'll get weeded out. Or so I'd like to believe, anyway.
Someone's gonna have a fun time with Holy lol

Judgement Staff
My heart... I cant take it
I mean... its cool and all, but Im already content with Light Staff, Judgement Staff just adds +25 or so more mind to healers

Yea, it frustrates me that I have so much experience with programming and software development, but so little in web development. I even have some pretty good experience with databases, just none of the HTML / CSS / Javascript stuff required to hook it up to an actual website.
I agree though, a database site would be nice. But like you, I'm just tired of seeing shit spread all around and you can never find the link you need, and when you do find it, you can't fix any errors with it when they're wrong because the sheets are protected.

Not sure how well editing complex tables works on mobile. But you could always leave a comment at the bottom of the page if the drop you got isn't listed.
I'll also be happy to help out with the wiki, just please make it good
fast and efficient, so I dont need to pull up 10 tabbed pages to cross-examine stuff for this game
edit: so happy for new dungeons, 70 stamina makes it easier to max out your stamina usage between recharges (and more sleep)

Managed to exchange for Aerith, yay! My run through the normal difficulty of the event was actually going well until Rydia accidentally died because I healed the WRONG person. Auto-aim SUCKS. But I still managed to get champion on the remaining battles including the Reno fight, lol.
Not sure what to do with the event now. What else is worth exchanging or grinding more mythril for?

Summon orbs are difficult to find elsewhere, but then again at 1500 each you might not afford that many. Perhaps it's wiser to get some of the cheaper orbs and use them to create or hone low-level abilities.
I didn't bother with the ★★ equipment or the accessories.
Since you started around a week ago(?) I would recommend looking up 2* and 3* abilites and hone those, I wouldn't worry about trying to create everything tho
Research which abilities are godsends and hone those, I recommend stuff like:
spellblades for cloud, 2* -ara black magic, cura/curaga, protect/haste, double cut, and enfeebling spells for target conditions
The 4* abilities take up more time/gil and most of us beat the elites without 4* abilities anyway, but we usually farmed up resonance gear
if you still playing after all this, you should start getting into lv40's and should start upgrading into higher tier abilities list to prep for new content
hope this helps

2 poison claws merged together means Tifa is annihilating FF6 elites... not that even that is needed. These new elites being so easy mode is a little disappointing. Hope by the end they'll have ramped back up.
Anyonw try Dia on Aerith? Seems like it'd be pretty cheap to upgrade quite a bit and with it being based on her MND stat instead it could be decently powered.E
Edit: Adamantoise in the Snow Cavern (FFII) drops a 2* Heavy Shield (FFVI. Well he does on Elite but it's the same gear drops right?
You've probably picked up loads of Leather Gloves from random newer story content, or will soon if you haven't yet. Combine them togther by raising one to max level and merging with the base form of another twice in order to get a Lv 10 Leather Glove ++. One of the new characters you unlock Josef will do good if notnthe best damage in FFVII worlds with those. Tifa would have been better, but not much uou can do about that. It's cheap to upgrade being a native 1* and you will be sick of the sight of them soon. They drop far too often lol

I'd say get the 2* equipment since they're both very cheap, and awkward to come buy. I mean I still use those Protect Vests whenever I enter an FFVII area. Obviously Mythril is your priority from the FFVII event.

I'm nearing 90.000 magicite from the FF7 event;
30k will go for the **** summon orbs
15k will go for the *** summon orbs
some (3kish) will go for all the ** orbs, just because cheap
Basing on the pre-udpate consensus, my original idea was to invest 15k on 3-stars non-elemental orbs, and the remaining almost 30k on whatever 4-stars orbs were most difficult to farm, notably Lightning ones.
Important abilities I'm still missing: all the -breaks, blitz, comet. Also all the new ones.
I have the spells up to -ra; nothing honed so far.
Is that still a valid approach, or should I invest these 40 - 45.000 better? Help me ATB GAF...

YES
I mean, what the shit, I realize there's far fewer white magic crafts than shit requiring power orbs and black orbs, but this is ridiculous and I can't even hone Curaga once.
Start spending those now. The interface is so annoying, having to spend 100k magicite might make me quit the game.

does this game share saves across ios devices?
Or you can be like me and not have a single 5* to my name.
Same here. :|
Just tried Moblitz elite, was scared of the "difficulty 60" so I did the boost/counter/double strike trick (I have yet to make defence break) and it was really easy.
The wiki says he drops Mythril Sword, I know what to farm until Terra then, my weapons are pretty bad and the strongest one is the first 3* sword they give you in the tutorial...
Plus it's a one battle dungeon, so I got to keep the orbs this time.

Rotate your party to make it a little harder for you. I've got Cyan and Wakka teamed up with the lowest level guys in my killing crew and things are squeaking by in Normal (I don't believe in growth eggs)
