Well I was gonna save for a 11 pull for the Vivi/Eiko banner but while getting my FFVIII team together for the event tonight, I saw I only have 3 4* weapons and no armor for FFVIII lol....... perfect time it seems then to throw that 11 pull at this banner then. Also related, but noticed I have half a page of 4/5* weapons/armors for 9/10, one page of 4/5* for 7/5/6/4/3/13, yet fucking 3 pages of 4/5* for 12, fuck this game's love for 12! D:

[BerenTebogo]

I'll prob do an 11 tonight and one on IX. I really want zell's relic more than squall SSB for that ATT buff but whatever.

[Kaslo]

I plan to do 22 on Zidane, then save everything else for SSB

[Eanae]

I need to pull a weapon soon. Running out of space and this event gives 20 more Scarletite. Ugh.

[Ratatapa]

I'm kinda debating on what to do atm myself for pulls (even though I keep telling people not to pull )

Squall Event

Banner 1 is pretty shitty exept for Squall SSB and I want his SSB but I need to resist wasting mythrils for possible bad relics pull
Banner 2 Not a big mnk fan and Zell will probably never hit 80 so even though is maverick is good I don't see Zell full time in my PT so 100 gems it is

Zidane's event
Banner 1 Amaran't Scissor Fang is really ood (AOE shell + Heavy Regen) but same thing as Zell I don't think Amarant would be in my PT just for that since h'S a MNK and all
Banner 2 Eiko's Golem Flute is OK good (Aoe Cura + haste) and could bring Eiko as a full time Healer for that, and Vivi Double Meteor is pretty good too

Lulu's event
Yuna' Lullaby Rod is back and is pretty good (AOE cura + Heavy regen) I actaully prefer Yuna SB over Eiko's Banner 1
Lulu's relic is pretty good good AOE MAG + and RES+ (Banner2) Which would make Lulu almost full time in mage PT, but with the witch hat we got, Lulu SB kinda lose a bit of the appeal.

Shadow's event
Mog Lance is pretty good AOE atk + Heavy Regen) Banner 2 and Mog is a good healer, so imo this could be better then Zell's Maverick,

then it's SSB

Phase 1 Has Rinoa Cardinal's SSB which has High MAG and non elemental DMG (and Rinoa gets lv 80 at the same time), Squall's revolver (meh), Zell Maverick (OK), Hope Sky cutter(meh) Leon's golden armor and Sazh Vega (yay)
Phase 2 Has Cloud Organic's Sephiroth Masamune and Red XIII Silver's Barrette, Zidan'e Butterfly Sword, Ashe's Runeblade and Tyro Cyclone Grimoire
Phase 3 has Tidus Force Saber (SSB single target water dmg), Yuna and Lulu Relic from Lulu's event, Tyro SG, Snow Paladin and Firion's Demon Axe
Phase 4 PLD Cecil Lustrous Sword (SSB high Single target holy dmg), Golbez Rune Axe, Vanilles WyrmFang, Wakka's Ball, Amarant's Scissord Fangs and Celes Rune Blade (not Runic)
Phase 5 has Squall's Cuting Trigger, A book for Tyro that deals Earth DMG, Rinoa's Rising Sun, Seifer's Hyperion, Aerith Aurora Rod and Eiko's Golem Flute.

I'm curreently at 58 Mythril and don't know how much i'll have at SSB fest since we do not have the exact date but since Shadow is December 9 and Rift is suppose to be after, we can expect 2 more DU (november 21 and december 5) which will give about 20ish mythrils total + about about 20 more mythrils just from daily logins.

That would bring me near 100, just need to decide where to pull


I think i'll do

100 gems + 1 5 mythril on Squall 1
100 gems on Squall 2

100 Gems on Zidane 1
100 gems + 15 mythril on Zidane's 2
100 gems + 1 or 2 pull on Lulu's banner 1 (depending on the result of Zidane's 2)
100 gems on Lulu's 2
100 gems on Mog lance

20ish mythril on SSB1
100 gems on phase 2 and maybe 1-2 pulls
Maybe a 50 on Tidus banner (depending results on all previous banners)
100 gems on Phasee 4
and something on phase 5 lol

[Jem]

I have Blitz Sword, Shear Trigger and Sleipnir's Tail so probably only tossing the 100 gem and maybe a 1-3 draw at this event. Hopefully those 3 weapons will already be enough to make shit melt.

[Aerin]

Is it safe to say that the exact items in each banner may be a little different than what JP had? It's been slightly different for the other festival banners too right?

I'll have about 300 Mythril by SSB fest if I don't pull anything until then... I still feel like I will get nothing I actually want

[Ratatapa]

The first Celebration we had different banners then JP

but on forgotten treasures we got the exact same one

So for this one, no idea, but it's still good to know (Rift hasn't been translated yet so we don't know the exact banners)

[Tyrath]

ETA till banners?

Celebration banners I mean.

[Kaslo]

I dumb

[Ratatapa]

Shadow event is December 9 and Rift was the event after in JP, so about 1 week after December 9 if we get it normally

The issue for now is that in JP event went Shadow then Rift then Sephiroth MC2, but for NA, Shadow and Sephiroth MC2 are translated but not Rift. so it might either

1) Be delayed
2) They need to change stuff to it
3) They didn't want us to datamine it

[Ratatapa]

Also Lulu relic is a 20% Magic boost + 50% resistance boost, and stacks wit hthe Witch hat, which would mean 35% magic boost for BLMs

That is something to keep in mind for BLM heavy pts

[BerenTebogo]

The better question is does lulu buff stack with shell

[Ratatapa]

The better question is does lulu buff stack with shell

Seems like it does

[Kirin]

I would think it would, since they've gone to good lengths to say pro/shell stacks with relative breaks/buffs.

[Ratatapa]

Shell stack with anything that give +res

So shell won't stack with boon because boon gives shell and not +res

[Necronus]

The better question is does lulu buff stack with shell

Buffs stack if they don't buff the EXACT same things. Same for debuffs.

If something does +MAG and +RES, it will only fail to stack with other things that do EXACTLY +MAG and +RES (The actual percentages are irrelevant). Other components of a buff/debuff like Regen, Haste, do not count when determining if buffs stack, just the stat mods.


The technical reason is Buffs and Debuffs are applied with unique ID's for the entire package. So +RES is one code, +MAG is another code, and +MAG/+RES is yet another code. It's why Breakdown (DEF) or (RES) + Status Reels (DEF and RES) + Full Break (DEF and RES and ATK and MAG) can all stack onto a single mob. 3 different debuffs.

People saying that shell will stack even with buffs that only give + res

But yeah that's because shell and res are 2 different buffs even if they both raise res
