I'm really glad I decided to start over from the beginning. Just relearning the ropes, going through all the story missions and saving up Mithril.
Way less overwhelming than trying to get a handle on everything that has changed / power crept over the past couple years.
Minfillia is the MVP of these multiplayer raids honestly. Last Stand is a game changer status.

If you are smart about which banners to pull on, and with some luck, you should be set right away. 2nd year anniversary banners will deck you out if you save up the mythril for it, much better than current banners at the moment.
My first experience with last stand was Relm's BSB with instant cure command 1, I'm a believer now
How much time do I have to save up?
I wouldn't save on Orlandu's banner though, which will come of Jan 26th.How much time do I have to save up?

Just mastered Lightning and Warmech.
Really happy with what this game has to offer as far as challenges go. I really don't few the need to pull any specific relic considering I have this amazing FF XIV team. I'll save for Orlandu and if, hopefully, I get his BSB in less than three pulls, I'll save for whatever is interesting on the anniversary.
There's a stupid challenge boss coming up called Nemesis, lol, if you played FFX post-ending, then you will know what I mean by this.

Been browsing Neogaf for ages but hadn't posted before.
I'm currently working on a mage team and trying to figure out what would be best. Fair warning -- I whale a bit lol.
Currently have these 6 to choose from but can't figure out which would be the most optimal.
Terra - OSB, En-Fire SSB, BSSB
Potato - BSSB, SSB1, SSB2 (Ley Lines)
Alphinaud - BSSB, SSB
Onion Knight - BSSB, SSB1 (missed out on the staff)
Y'shtolla - BSSB, SSB and Thyrus
Cid Raines - BSSB
It's difficult to choose who to run with (I know all situations are different but would prefer a basis to run most of the time.)
Since I got Cid Rains burst I almost feel like Terra should be left on the side lines. Her stats are ridiculous but she has too much ramp up time unless I dedicate Onion as Entrust battery basically which seems kind of wasteful (typically have a second blood sword augmented on him to spam command 2.)
Any suggestions would be appreciated!
That team is great the only thing is that you are lacking a support. I run something like this
Tyro, wall
Alphinaud, BSB
Vanille BSB or Yshtola BSB depending on the fight
Onion Knight, BSB
Maria, BSB
RW: Cid Raines
Tyro goes as my support with dances, I equip him heavy on magic so he can RW Cid Raines and hit hard with all the stacking anyway.
Since you have all this relics I would suggest you to run this changing Maria for Potato and since you have Native Cid you can change OK for Cid and RW OK. YOu can be hardcore and not run tyro and carry breakdowns and full break on ok and RW wall but I like dances more for mage teams.
I love being in front in pull goals. I budgeted exactly 75 Mythril for DU banner and 1 Nightmare pull (+a couple for a few inventory upgrades).
After that it's 100% for Anniversary, skipping absolutely everything aside from 100 gems. Currently at 91 Mythril and AT LEAST 120 Elites to go. I am going to have an amazing amount of Mythril. Never mind login bonuses, Portal app and whatever we get at the time Anniversary hits.
Did Japan get any Mythril for their 2nd Anniversary? I know we got 50 Mythril for the first one.
What are the most broken BSB or OSB that we are still waiting to be released that is not related to Orlandu?
I know I need to get more medicas.
Can't wait to try him, at least it isn't Penance.
Or Absolute Virtue :]

I believe the Nightmare Banner is full price.
It works, DU 25 + Nightmare 50.

Are there any DPS character BSB's that also give group hastega? i'm looking at messing around with my party competition a bit, but it's hard to move Ramza out. I have Minfilia, and I'd like to use her in the attack buff role, but the lack of hastega makes those tough fights tougher.
I know OK's Burst does hastega and atk/mag up, but I don't have it and hate that character. Are there others?
Mog BSB.
Does it matter if it pierces if people are going to do 9999 damage anyway?
At ~400 Magic (which is reasonably low for testing purposes) and massive Faithga stacking (x3 30%), a Chain Spell isn't even going to cap neutral damage against D250 bosses (as they have insane stats, but it'll come close with ~9k x2).
Strago's BSB piercing command is basically a guaranteed 9999 x2, regardless of how little Faith stacking you do or how high the boss' res is. Makes it pretty valuable for people who don't have many native Faithga's or enjoy running mixed or heavy physical teams. It's pretty amazing and future proof, just like how Sephy's BSB is with his Def Ignoring command.
Plus Ninja magic is heavily soft capped at 390. Black Magic with piercing is just lol.
Zidane OSB is a trap...
You pull one = perma Zidane in every daily run
nvm... synergy bonus, wtf? such useless trash
Got Garnet's Wizard Rod for my 100 gems!
I heard this is a popular RW to this day in Japan, should I set it as my RW after XIII event ends? (Hope OSB is my RW right now)
Other options for RW:
Ley Lines
Deployment Tactics
Pilot Steel (Shout clone)
Wall
Minfilia's Last Stand boostga (forget the name)
HotE
Twin Star (ATK/MND up which stacks w/ Shout&HotE, plus large crit rate up)
What would FFRK GAF find most useful?
