How many pulls have you made? It is unfortunate you haven't gotten a single unique.

[Yuri-G]

actually looking into my box I have one. Dark Blade for Cecil. lots of other 5* and a few shared soul breaks.


I'm not sure how many pulls? I would estimate around 80ish. I guess it's not that many, but still... pulling on this lucky draw banner and not getting shit really hurt lol

[arus2001]

Eh, I'd say good SBs cut down on the inevitably of having to reset due to RNG in harder fights. Having SG and Lightning's (B)SSB alongside Bartz's SSB, this usually means my RW will either be Shout or MG8. And aside from the poorly represented event realms, I usually have a couple decent melee weapons to put on them, too. In the end, it can easily translate to 30-50k damage relative to default SBs.

Doing the realm CMs, often without good SBs, I can relate to those who find shit difficult.

[Auspice]

I had miserable luck with pulls until recently. I got Plat Sword on the last fest banners and PCecil's Excalibur on the IV banner. Stack that up with my Sent Grimoire and more healing SBs than I can shake a staff at.

[Prothescar]

Lightning's OSB and Raines' BSB look potentially ridiculous

[Akiyama]

of course Lightning's would be. She's OP

[Alkar]

Lightning also gets a new SSB which is basically Crushing Blow with 3 additional hits and Enthunder as additional effect.

Minfilia: White 5, Support 5, Knight 5, Combat 4.
Alphinaud: White 4, Black 4, Summon 5 (he can get White and Black 5 through RD).

Edit: This is how the damage reflect on Alphinaud's SSB works: it lasts 30 seconds and reflects 100% of the damage received (you still take the damage). No effect on Poison/Sap or attacks by allies.

XIV characters confirmed broken.

Edit: should I R3 Full Break?

[Mertron]

nah

I've never needed it past r2 before whatever I am fighting ends up dead. might not be the case for CM mote battles tho

[Ratatapa]

I still have it at R2

[arus2001]

Yeah, the temptation to R3 for CMs has been strong, but I can't quite say it's must have for me yet.

[Moridam]

i got past mote ifrit with R2, can't think of anything else in the foreseeable that would require more hones. R3 seems like a waste of orbs unless you have all of your other MPO 5*s at R3+ already.

[kuronosan]

Nah, the choice was that or r3 full charge. Contemplating shattering my majors to fully hone my 4* abilities.

[hyoton]

R3 FB's got some fringe uses but is much less useful than more full charge.

[Kirbyprime]

so... those bosses were stupidly easy back in XIV... so if they're hard to fight now... that means we're all casuals.

[Spira]

now thats a healer BSB

[Yuri-G]

just came back this week. where did all these 3* and 4* orbs come from; I don't remember having that many o.O


they also seem to be a lot easier to obtain now; rank 30ish quests giving out 3*s and even 4*s, shit. were they always this easy to obtain or has there been some power creep?


enjoying myself despite the lagginess. it's hard to argue with the classic SFX and music, man. even if my gacha luck in this game is SHIT.

There has been a change in event format. Less stages overall but some bonus battles are released right away. There's also less orbs being rewarded in general but I guess they've moved some to the lower ones.
