8 MSO, 6 MIO, 4 MEO after 11 refresh, so 18 Major Orbs. About 50 Greater Orbs of each too.

I typed this up the other day and never actually pressed post. :/
I think I'll do the same, so I can compare post-Fest.
Notable 5*s:
Meteor (R3)
Full Charge (R3)
Powerchain (R3)
Dragoon Jump (R3)
Saint Cross (R3)
Dark Zone (R3)
Thief's Revenge (R2)
Flare Strike (R2)
Barrage (R2)
Full Break (R2)
Multi Break (R2)
I looked at all the upcoming skills that will come out before the next Orbfest (if it's ~3-4 months out) and made some goals. I'm not interested in going heavy with Mages, so I'll keep the Chain magic on the backburner for quite some time.
What I need most are Power, Earth, Fire, Ice and Wind. I'm unsure how much mythril I'll spend, but I'll be splitting up my refreshes between Phase 1 and 3. I don't need any White and not much Dark, so Phase 2 and 4 will be natural Stamina.
Immediate Goals:
52 Wind / 30 Power / 24 Lightning / 24 Dark / 18 Black / 6 White
Thief's Revenge (R2 -> R3)
40 Wind / 24 Lightning / 24 Dark
Tornado Strike (R1 -> R2) (Have Celes' SSB)
20 Power / 12 Black / 12 Wind
Entrust (R1)
10 Power / 6 White / 6 Black
Intermediate Goal:
60 Power / 36 Fire / 36 Earth
Meteor Crush (R3)
Future Goals:
168 Ice / 108 Earth / 96 Fire / 96 Lightning / 96 Holy / 60 Power / 60 Dark / 36 Wind / 36 White / 36 Non
Sapphire Shot (R3)
60 Ice / 36 Lightning / 36 Holy
Lightning Dive (R3)
60 Lightning / 36 Ice / 36 Wind
Second Wind Cannon (R3)
60 Fire / 36 White / 36 Earth
Gaia Cross (R3)
60 Holy / 36 Ice / 36 Earth
Hailstorm (R3)
60 Power / 36 Non / 36 Ice
Deathscythe (R3)
60 Dark / 36 Fire / 36 Earth
Goal Totals:
168 Ice / 150 Power / 144 Earth / 132 Fire / 120 Lightning / 96 Holy / 84 Dark / 88 Wind / 42 White / 36 Non / 18 Black
Current Orbs (Majors + Conversion Equivalents):
Ice: 95 (80 + 15)
Power: 19 (10 + 9)
Earth: 31 (11 + 20)
Fire: 52 (13 + 39)
Lightning: 75 (35 + 40)
Holy: 67 (51 + 16)
Dark: 51 (32 + 19)
Wind: 16 (11 + 5)
White: 96 (51 + 45)
Black: 74 (53 + 21)
NonEle: 20 (10 + 10)
Summon: 119 (104 + 15)
Orbs Needed to reach all goals:
Power: 131
Earth: 113
Fire: 80
Ice: 73
Wind: 72
Lightning: 45
Dark: 33
Holy: 29
Non: 16
kinda curious... what is everyone's drop rate so far for 5*?
i have used 5 mythril and 1 stamina shard refill (so 6 refills so far) and i am at a grand total of 1 major orb (summon). how is everyone else' rate? I should mention i have 167 stamina.
and it feels empty doing these dungeons without gysahl green drops
Used 5 refreshes so far, and I believe 4 majors have dropped.

Lucky Draw netted me Cresent Wish (soooo happy, almost pulled on WHM banner just for it) and Dark Cecil Deathbringer (meh).

Got a dupe rosa Artemis bow, combined immediately and Leon's weird defender sword aoe dark attack with def up and both lures with +10 def mastery. Anybody have and use is thing? Wish I had a +dark damage relic. What dark attacks are physical, have no clue, neglected them. Conveniently Leon is on my leveling team currently so no wasted exp.
Just 2 physical Dark abilities so far. Dark Bargain and Sanguine Cross.

Fuuuuuck, I should probably pull on the Lucky Draw shouldn't I. I've got like 135 mythril right now even after a handful of refreshes on this phase so it's not like I can't afford it, but I've been hurt so many times
You should yea. You know what can happen, but this is a very good deal. What if your luck turns on here? Or even getting 1 good SSB for 25 Mythrils would be just fine!

10 3* and 1 4*.
Whee. Lucky.
Whee. Lucky.
Dey made me pull again before guaranteed 5*
I don't see why you shouldn't. (YOU SPENT 15 ON A 3 PULL FOR CONTEXT)

Cult of Three demands it's sacrifice!
Anyway, the streak has finally been broken! Yay...?
At this point I'll take pretty much anything so not gonna complain, but from everything I've seen Minwu's relic is pretty eh, is in a realm that virtually never comes up, AND Medicas are one of the few things I'm already drowning in. So kind of a wash there, but again way better than nothing. I'm not familiar with the Crystal Cross but it seems at the very least solid as well as potentially very useful in certain situations, so I'll consider that one a win?
The 4*s are kind of a bust sadly; I have virtually no FF9 synergy but the 4* vest on it's own isn't going to beat out my other realm 5*/5+* stuff but I'll hold onto it of course in case I ever get duplicates to Combine. And I weirdly already have a ton of 4++/5 FF7 bangles for some reason.
Anyway for 25 Mythril I'll totally take this, if for nothing else just to break my goddamn 11-pull streak.

Total bust here. Two combinable 4*s, Nine junk. :/
next post would undoubtedly be 5* guaranteed
(j/k watch me pull on the next nightmare banner)

Uh, Edea's throwing thing? Is that any good? Kinda random.
Pretty good I'd say. Both offensive mages in VIII use thrown and it's a good SSB (especially for Mote Ifrit if you haven't done it yet).
I still don't know what to feel/think about this Tiny Bee. I guess I could use Braska to be main healer for CM's.

I just realized that I really don't like Dark Cecil and I have all his relics. Never pulled for his relics, just Lucky Draw and pulling for Pecil BSB. I think his SSB is extra powerful to counter the 30% HP loss per use. Just need to time cures with it I guess.

Neat!. Is this Bssb sought after whatsoever?
Got SSBs for Y'shtola and Seifer. I'll take it.
I swear, I only ever get FFVIII stuff on festival banners.
Not as a RW, but it's nice onGarnet Dagger and the item itself is great.

Pulled a Valiant Knife. Seems alright, although I'm not sure how beneficial the ATK bonus on it will be once I'm already at the cap or how useful it would be if used in conjunction with Thief's Revenge since the SSB scales with HP and TR is the most damaging Thief ability. Still, at 8.0 to start without accounting for any damage bonus, I can't complain about that.

Cool beans. Seems like some of us are getting decent things from this

Not that I'm going to complain too hard, but I got my first BSB - Tyro's.
I love the fact that I finally got a BSB, and on someone I use in every party no less, but fuck, I already have SG. How the hell do you pick which one you use?
Is his BSB better than SG and Shout for RW? I don't even know what I'd use it for.

I know exactly how you feel.
I use Keeper's Tome all the time as a RW. It's the 2nd best defensive RW you can take (Wall being the first).

Organics (I'll take it?), native Mighty Guard (!), and another Platinum Sword. Could've done a lot worse, I suppose. Would've taken another BSB, that's for sure.

Got four (4!) 5* in summer banner
Edea's weapon (dupe and my third, immediately fused into one of the other two)
Rydia's whip
Edge's katana
Faris's Bow (BSSB!!)
So it was definitely a win! This coupled with the healer banner (did a rage 11x pull), got porom's SSB, vanille's SSB and a Selphie weapon.
So I have a busy time farming with entirely new characters!

"no increased bonus" I'm reading.
'no problem' I'm thinking
*Pulls 0/11*
"FUCK MAN I knew it"

Holy shit indeed. What a fucking pull. Grats.
I would kill for Overture. Or any XIII synergy.

Pulled Reno's Light Rod and Shadow's Ichigeki. I'm satisfied. (Particularly with Shadow's SSB.)
Holy shit, I got Tyro's BSSB, this is my third Magic Blink. Poor magic heavy bosses lol
The effect and the commands sound pretty good, but the thing is that I have everything covered with others chars/SSBs. Anyway, sounds like a great thing to have in realms with poor synergy (I'm looking at you, XIII) so that all the healing and defenses rely on Tyro and I can focus on offense.
I have Tyro sitting on lvl 80 since forever and have only used him in a couple of Abyss dungeons, this is all new for me lol
