woah, lots of mc2s to choose from.
My first four will be:
Tifa
Vivi
Lulu
Aerith
due to having relics, subject to change depending on banner pulls of course.
Oh, in the festival, light of trabia holy attack is ohking mini cactuars on auto attack mode.

He'll be in the upcoming FF2 event along with his MC 1 I believe so best not to waste a lode on him
I don't have any lodes to spend lol.
Has he not been available since the last time there was a FF2 event or something? I've been playing since late October he's the only character I'm missing, just surprised.
Firion was released in another celebration event forever ago and this is the first time his MC has been available.
They're going to give some souls/lodes as login rewards tomorrow.
Ah okay. I've given zero thought on what MC's to go for yet anyway.

Locke >>> Bartz > Gilgamesh > Vivi >>> Vanille > Hope > Lulu >>>>> Tifa >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Aerith.
Mine are
Vivi (have his SSB) > Gilgamesh (because he's top tier even no sb > Aerith (have her aoe heal sb) > Tifa (have her water kick sb) > Vanille/Hope (have their first sbs) > Bartz (generally useful) > Lulu/Locke (neither does anything useful for me)
All of this is subject to change if I pull Locke, Bartz, or Lulu's relics from the ssb gatcha

Yeah I'm just gonna wait until pulls to see where I go in terms of MC's, I've already got Gilgamesh at 65 with Vivi almost there (he's my current Ruinga caster for Sundailys). I've also got Bartz's Brave Blade but I don't actively use him (he's sitting at 50). I'd like to use Locke in theory but I have nothing for him. Probably best just to wait and see what I pull.
Aside from that, does anyone know how the XP on + difficulty compares to the Sundaily? I got at least one Cactuar on every single stage so I can't tell lol. This is gonna be so glorious for me, I have so many goddamn characters to level.

Cleared the 5 difficulties of this phase. Without counting the rewards for Completion/Mastery, I got a huge total of 2 Greater Orbs. I am sure that tomorrow will be better!
On MC2, I will totally have to go as I pull on the SSB banners!

First one should be on Yuna BSB event, then anniversary login reward (3 of each) at the end of the month.

Mine are just character/game preferences.
If Aerith has a really awesome Record Materia, she can move up. I guess.
Yeah, we should be getting some for anniversary logins.

That's actually not a bad idea.
Cool, Final Fantasy III crew can finally all be 65.

Restore more HP with white magic abilities.
The soul/lode login reward is tomorrow.
If you had any left over from the Omega event months ago they'll also still be there, apparently.

Are we going to be getting a steady supply of MC1 and 2 lodes, or do I need to worry about *not* using them on characters who might get theirs in upcoming events?

Eh, not really needed with Curaja. Back to garbage she goes.
The Annex.
Thanks!
3 Ginormo Cactuars (2 MLO and 1 MDO) and 3x Cactuar orgies in a row.
Great start to this anniversary! Might do about 5 refreshes for this phase, MLO is pretty valuable. Don't know what I'm going to do with MBO though, have no interest in crafting Meteor and Flare anymore. I'll wait for Darkness magic I guess.

If you didn't spend the then useless crystals from Vale of Memories they're back:
Of course this makes DeNA a bunch of liars as a lot of people were under the impression that any unused would be lost (even if a few speculated this would happen) so I exchanged mine for some 4* growth eggs
It is true there are only 3 MC1s I'm missing but I'd like to build a stockpile for when I do miss some events. Given Firion is coming out in 2 events anyway it would seem like there is little point cashing in but Firion also gets his MC2 during that event. I guess it will depend of how my EXP situation is looking (I'm tempted to use my 50 mythril prize on this orbfest, 26 on phase 2, 6 on other 4 phases...wait one of them is materials, maybe I'll only use 44 then).

Apparently the ones from the temporary Hall of Rites from before are still valid now even though they said they would expire...
But yeah, we'll have to wait until we get some more. They're going to be giving some away as part of the Anniversary login bonuses, and then we'll get more from clearing events.

You might be interested in the A Walk down memory lane series in the FFRK subreddit
https://www.reddit.com/user/SkyfireX/submitted/
The early banners look dreadful now (as does there being 1-4 featured relics). The Rufus fight videos in part 1 are brutal. No RW, there are not enough accessories for all party members to wear accessories, you've having to use terrible abilities like blade bash and dark shot with low hones simply because other options either have yet to exist or you don't have the orbs for them (I think this was before daily dungeons existed). Also consider some players wouldn't have Tidus because he was a pre-registration gift and another little fact; You could not critical hit but enemies could critical hit you.
Later on there was the infamous parade float.
I feel my FFRK start was a bit of a cheat given it was right before festival of gold (an event with lots of EXP, gold and materials...which got sold due to inventory limits) and right after MC had started being added plus the festival lasted long enough to cover two events so I got Tidus+Wakka and Garnet+Vivi to level 60 plus Tyro, Kain, Cloud, WoL and Rydia to nearly 50.
Rough numbers
+ Difficulty on sunday is about 98k from champ
+ Difficulty here is about 78k for champ with no cactuar
+ Difficulty 3 waves of mini cactuar is about 190k for champ (which is around what ++ Sunday will be)
Don't forget the orb drops are a lot better than normal daily are (though divided among more orb types). The cactuar EXP might change too. The current EXP is the same as the first orb weekend we recently had rather than the second one which had less.
Yeah, this is generally the case for mobile/event/gacha driven games. Have a similar OCD, which is why I watch the marketplace like a hawk for new games. If there's something that potentially might interest me, day 1. Can just as easily drop it if it doesn't jive.
(I can't really play more than 3 of these at a time, and 1 maximum in the initial don't-waste-any-resources phase)

That's her rm3, rm2 is the attack = heal one and that is ffix specific.

As I was having these thoughts earlier. Seeing the daily log in bonuses it looks like the FFII event is going to start before the day 5 of the bonuses so using a blank MC for Firion offers no benefit (besides saving yourself an inevitable just 7+11+38 stamina detour) unless you're one of those people who have one already (thanks to not listening to lies from DeNA). The event should also start before phase 2 of the orbfest but must be finished before phase 5.

I know, as mentioned just above, that Firion will get his MC1 in the FF2 event, but are any of the other new MC/MC2s going to be in upcoming events? Or are all of them exclusive to the Hall?

Is there any consensus on which MC2s to get from the Hall of Rites based solely on the characters and their new RMs?
I haven't thought about it too much, but I'd guess Gilgamesh since he's great for retameta and at least one of the 5* black mages to help prep for the first Nightmare dungeon.
Obviously, going to hold off and base my picks on SSBfest draws but I'm curious who's the cream of the crop to grab after that.
Also, do we know how long until we'll get enough MC2 lodes to get all the available MC2s? (assuming you've picked up all previous MC2s that were available)

None of the mc's are that dominant so you should really base it upon who's ssb you pull or if that doesn't work out who you consistently use for difficult content.
I would Say Tyro and Cloud are worth to get their MC2 even if you dont have a relic for them because their RM3 makes life easier on late game content.
Yeah, that older stuff seems rough as hell lol.
I'd be doing the orbfest regardless because of the orb drops, but was just curious how it compared to the sundaily at a base level because I still have not gone a single stage without getting at least one cactuar which is a great problem to have. I woke up at fucking 4 AM this morning just to do a couple runs to avoid wasting stamina. It's gonna be a fun few weeks.
Falk: Same here, problem is I make terrible life decisions and have a Windows phone (don't ask, long story) so I just didn't have access to this since I didn't know about Bluestacks etc at the time. I actually bought this cheap $50 android tablet pretty much to play this game back in October, along with wanting something to watching twitch/youtube on in bed etc.

I've really been getting back into this game pretty heavy over the past week or so. Is there a list or ranking of the best RM these days? I've got almost every character unlocked, and have a ton of eggs, but I don't know what I should be aiming for. I'm using a lot of auto haste and physical/weapon based attack ones now, which I'm sure have been outclassed.

IMO these ones are all solid.
Mako Might / Dr. Mog Teaching (Cloud/Tyro RM3) - Instant SB charge when starting a dungeon. Really handy for Ultimate battles so you can Wall up straight away.
Summoning Spring II / Mana Spring II (Black Mage/Summoner RM2) - Makes clearing those lengthy elite dungeons much less hassle when you can spam Ruinga/Valeduin on trash waves.
Blood of the Espers (Terra RM3) - Started using this recently, really nice damage boost when it procs.
Dark Cecil RM3 - (can't remember what its called), 20% extra damage with swords which is great as Swords are probably the most common melee weapon type.
