    Didn't you just start? What other units do you have? That pull isn't bad if you are building a team. It's pretty meh if you have been playing a while and already have a bunch of them.

    Agrias is solid, but she's only 5* right now. Buttz is also a solid 6*, though not top tier. ExD is best mage for a while, and 6*. Charlotte is passable if you don't have cecil. Rest is crap except Luna's TM. Faris is worse than Agrias IMO.

    Sup dawg heard you liked Fang.

    This 2 headed dragon fight sounds miserable but I want to try it anyway lol

    EDIT: It was surprisingly easy. Kept buffs/heals up with Cecil and Refia, Dualcast Meteor on odd turns with Exdeath, and auto attacked with the rest of my team including a ~650 ATK Luneth companion.

    Yeah, I started last Sunday.

    I'm thinking of doing Gilgamesh, Bartz, Charlotte, Exdeath and Lenna/Fina. All except Gilgamesh are 3*, so this will be a grind.

    Edit: Actually, I have 4* WoL, so going to replace Charlotte with him.

    Cleared the Thorn Mace fight last night drunk as fuck on first attempt. Woke up and burned 19 tickets and my daily half off on the Lightning banner. I don't really need Lightning at all, but I'd like to have her. I'd be more excited about Refia honestly. Ended up with pretty much trash, including 3 fucking Bartz from an off banner pull lol.

    But on the bright side, the new arena rules are amazing for a melee heavy team. I'm just doing Hit All, Wicked Light, Madness Rush and using Darkside with CoD in the first turn and most teams are down to Pecil already.

    I didn't know you had Gilg. Yeah your team is shaping up nicely for having just started. You won't need a real tank for a long while. I think I didn't even use a healer for most content until kolobos.

    Each time the crystal "upgrades" it is considered a new pull and could be a different unit. Vanille is 4 star base, so its not even possible she was the blue.

    Oh cool, thanks.

    And I guess RNG does the rest of the work? (chance to upgrade, etc.)

    With the upgraded gear drops think it's worth it to spam low level run with Cecil and 4 bonus guys while I wait for my good dps friends to repop? Normally I'd be spamming cactaur dunes but I don't really have anyone to level up right now. Think a party of cod, dancer, chizuru, Cecil and refia good enough to knock out 2 headed dragon?

    Are you talking Pro or something lower? What's the gear/NRG ratio on those?

    Got Pecil #2 from 50 to 100, Exdeath #1 from 80-100, Exdeath #2 40-100, and Agrias from 0 4* to 40ish 5* from dunes today. I needed this event badly.

    Why Pecil #2? Is that the one you leveled the LB on? I'm also suprised you leveled Agrias now. Is she really that useful at present considering her 6* and upgrades are sooooo far down the road? Just curious as I also have one, but she's 4* lvl 1 presently.

    Nice. Tried 2 headed dragon and wasn't able to get down fast enough with a snow helper. When my good luneth friend repop I'll try again. Yeah was thinking about pro spam. It's 10 energy for 150-185 gears. I'd have 4 of the 6 helpers, so prolly a 250 percent boost if I added it right.

    According to Reddit, the unit and rarity are predetermined, and the "upgrade" is just a little splash that is sometimes added to the animation. But it (supposedly) doesn't have anything to do with the percentages.

    Pecil 2 is my LB one, yes. Agrias I leveled as an experiment. I want to replace WoL since I'm using him for Fullbreak now, but until his 6* that's all he's got. Agrias with Fullbreak, Cleansing Strike, Blade blitz, and an AoE stop LB is an improvement Imo.

    I'm inclined to believe this, but there is really no way to know outside of asking a programmer.

    I had Vaan as my FB since opening weekend, but I guess he's basically useless now since Pecil has focus. Maybe I should level her as well as she has a much better supplemental kit now.
    That only leaves Buttz, Pecil#2, Lightning, ExD#2, and Agrias. That's a lotttttt of cactuars. Need another Maze event.
    I may actually get Medius' TM at this rate. I'm regretting combining the 3 I had now.

    I used Vaan until I got WoL in an off banner pull, and I off banner pulled Agrias Thursday so now it's her turn. I burned some lapis today, 500ish, and had a rank up which helped put a pretty big dent in my exp requirements.

    Potentially useful units I still have to level are Maxwell, Gaffgarion, and Charlotte. I'm going to take my time with them though.

    Got Max to 5* to use to farm the event. Aren't gaff and charlotte pretty useless? I have them both but doubt I'll be leveling them any time soon. Of course that doesn't include gaff's TM, which I just started on.
