    I'll try it out once I get to the next ranged guy. My first run got sabotaged because BLM got one shotted by some random crap before I got heal on him lol. Wish I had a rare mage armor. Working off of random 1 star upgraded to 3.

    I'm using a Bronze Bangle++ (3*) maxed at level 10. Not in a much better position.

    One thing I find really annoying is the limited ability system. WHM especially isn't meant to only ever have 2 spells. I can't defend from status effects because I need to keep Cure and Protect

    Funny you mentioned this as I was just coming to post a tip from reddit.

    Apparently what people do is force close the app and restart it after your party receives a detrimental status effect or someone dies. If you force close the app and restart it you'll begin again at the beginning of that round with your party in tact.

    However if you gain the status effect in 1/3 and go on to 2/3 and someone dies, you'll only start again at 2/3 and still have the status effects.

    Yeah I actually noted that about the turn not saving until the fight was done. Didn't think to do it about statuses yet but only because Poison in Shinra tower isn't too bad. I did try it a second too late when my BLM died before.

    eh that sorta feels like cheating. not that I'm against it; everyone gets to enjoy the game their own way. but for now I'd rather try and do this legit. for now... lol

    elemental orb normal dungeon is kicking my ass which sucks because I was able to breeze through the ability orb normal dungeon. so now I have a ton of mid-level ability orbs but no elementals to fuse them with. sigh... #firstworldproblems. and it was similar to what you mentioned above - I was doing ok until some bullshit one-shotted Rydia. well, two-shotted, but I wasn't able to heal her in time.

    one small complaint: the turn system in this game fucking sucks. like, say it's Rydia's turn and I pass to Cloud. while I'm selecting Cloud's commands, Tidus's turn comes up. after I select Cloud's action, Rydia's turn comes up again instead of Tidus. and it's even more annoying if there were two or three other people before Tidus - if you're not careful you end up rotating through everyone twice until you get to the person you want. not a huge problem but it can be annoying when you're trying to use only physical attacks to conserve abilities for bosses. should be like FFV IOS where you can just tap the person to select their turn, but in this game that highlights them as a target instead. and the really fun part about that is when you do it accidentally because you're used to it in other games and end up attacking your own crew... bleh.

    also, good armor seems far more difficult to come by than good weapons. maybe it's just my luck, but even fusing together and ranking up items only boosts def a small amount. hence Rydia being a glass cannon. although with her four-star stave she's a really good cannon...

    small complaints though. game's still awesome.

    If i'm doing a series of fights that take 50 stamina total when my max is 40, and my main damage dealer gets one shotted on the 4th group out of the 5, you damn right I will cheat if I can. If stamina wasn't a factor and I could try as many times as I wanted, I wouldn't but with the way things are setup, thats way too much to lose.

    Edit: That scenario literally just happened as I posted that lol

    oh I'm not judging at all. just makes me feel... greasy. nothing wrong with cheating in a game that constantly throws 3-star "rare" relics at you

    Just beat boss lvl 65. BLM was low hp most of the fight after I ran out of heals but luckily he did not attack him again. 4 Thundaras, 4 Thunders and an assortment of attacks from Wakka and 3 Jumps did the trick.

    Now I need to farm for Dark attack.

    Beat it :3, Definitely put some FFVII armor on the mages and BE SURE to be ready to throw a lot of damage at the final boss, he has a fuck ton of hp and if you're like me and don't have any 4+ weapons (lol healer doesn't count) it'll be a long fight.

    Here's my team when I started the final floor for the event.
    Spoiler: show

    I'm doing the Hard Daily for Lesser Darks, but if that's not your thing, you can try looking them up here:

    beat 60 and 65 today, need to do them again for the master status, my ranged team was blah, I think I might skip kain for jump and just hold it out with Cloud, his DPS output is sorely missed on trash

    does this game follow the back row with ranged weapon and youre fine mechanic btw or do I need to front row shit for best damage

    Follows classic FF mechanics. Ranged damage is fine from back row.

    Just beat 65 boss.
    28 Kain and Rydia
    25 Tidus, Wakka, Tyro

    3 Thundaras, 2 Double Jump, 1 Jump, and 2 Dark Attack killed it. Used protect on Tyro and Rydia and Boost on Kain, Tyro, and Wakka on stage 3/4. No deaths.

    With Longbow++ on Wakka, Dark attack did around 500 damage. Not spectacular but it certainly helps. Toro did nothing but heal and Titus just was there to Boost and absorb some damage before healing himself with Salve.
