You could do what Falk suggested to me a few pages back and farm onion knights in the Celes event. Purely anecdotal but I was getting 4 or 5 ice orbs each time I spent all my stamina and had enough for 4 Blizzagas the next day.
Ice Orbs aren't the problem. I've got a lot of them. It's the Black Orbs i need
 
If the first hit kills the enemy the second will carry over to the next enemy/round

I gotcha. Maybe I need to practice the Retaliate strategy some more, but I feel like I take way more hits from enemies just trying to get it set up. Even afterward, to an extent, because I have to make sure I'm always tapping the right character for my attacks.

Cyan delivered an accidental Double Cut to Rydia earlier and it was not pretty.
 
Correct. If you've already committed to being a non free player, then you should use all your available mythril for stamina refreshes (or inventory) and gems for relic pulls. Of course, if you want more stamina refills than you have mythril available, then you've got no choice. But just looking at the conversion rates, since 100 gems gets you closer to a relic pull than 1 mythril, use the mythril for something other than relic pulls.

If you're staying free, then you have to balance the mythril between everything, obviously .

Thanks for your answer in my thread on reddit, it's much more obvious put that way ! Back to getting some more non-elemental orbs with mythrils hehe.
 
Okay I'm more than likely missing something, but why does everyone want Non Elementals so bad? I've now gotten enough to hone Power/Armour Break and Comet to 4 uses which I really needed, but now that I've got them I'm just gonna cycle the full event instead of the 2nd stage. Is there any other real need for them apart from those?

I wanted Dark and Venom Buster for the dinosaur, and I want all my breaks at 4/5. The bottleneck for everything are the Non-Elemental orbs.

I personally didn't get many of those from the game yet and I still need my honed break spells, and that means a lot of orbs, so I'm starving for those.

Ah I forgot about Dark and Venom. I'll need to get enough to hone them at least once. I'm only bothering with Power/armour because I've created Magic/Mental Breakdown. I suppose I could hone them as well since the two 4* abilities won't be honed anytime soon. Back to repeating then.
 
Do you have a link? I'm not sure if you're talking about ice orbs or power / black orbs. Because I really could use a good farming spot for power and black orbs.

For Black Orbs, farm Ultros (i refuse to call him Orthros, get that blasphemy out of here) and Typhon in FF6 Airship Classic. It's the 2nd to last stage in the painting, so it doesn't end the run. You can farm it over and over again for 7 stamina, has about a 40% drop rate for 3* Black Orb. Let me know if you find a good spot for 3* Power Orbs.

Why are you against calling him Orthos but you're totally fine with calling the other one Typhon? :P

CHUPON

Because I don't remember what his name was originally? Because he has a much smaller role than Ultros?

No seriously, what was he called in the original translation?

Edit: Beaten lol. Chupon, right, I remember that now.

Very nice! Thanks. I have something in the works that should completely solve the problem of where the best places to go for various orb types are. Hope to be able to announce more in the next week or two.

Cool, if it's anything like your item spreadsheet then I can't wait!

4* does exist ;)
 
No. The only ones that can 'break' 9999 are multihit skills like Quake or skills that hit more than once like Rinoa's Valkyire Soul Break.
 
Only Gravity truly breaks the 9999 damage cap.

They'll probably add a break damage thing in the future, let's just hope it's an ability and not a 5* equipment...

People said in the Japanese wiki that 1st floor of Figaro Castle is good for lesser power orb. I haven't tried myself.

Today I'm getting non-elemental orbs. I'll get lesser power tomorrow.

I've done this one at least 7 times and have gotten 4 whips and no orbs. :(
 
BTW, if I run out of stamina, but go into the daily dungeon and close the app, when I open it in the morning, will I have three more go's at today's dungeon?
 
Grinding Flan for days has really skewed my sense of how long a full bar of stamina will last me. Bottoming out after two runs through the Heroic daily feels so weird.
 
Bit the bullet and grinded the Celes event for more Memories, enough to get the Hero Ring. I'm calling it quits now though and focusing on other stuff.

I HAVE CELES. Right before the event was over too. Finally. I was at a pretty low level so I could only grind the normal/easy dungeons.

So is she any good?
She provides some variety. Her biggest strength is her 5* Spellblade ranking.
 
1 Elite Dungeon left, FFV North Mountain. Could probably do it if I brought slow instead of a useless spell that I never used. Had 3 44s and 2 37s in my party. Eh...maybe tomorrow.
 
The flan genocide continues!

All my named characters except for Rinoa and Josef are lvl 48-50. Now concentrating on getting my core classes to lvl 25.

Rinoa and Josef are great tho... And they're the only FFII & FFVIII characters we have access to currently. All they want is your love. (And exp.)
