Yeah its a clone of lightning usb with slower quickcast trading it for hybrid flexibility. Single element dives I’m normally iffy on but being able to hit mag and phys is magicite five star relevant.

Reno with USB only is a beast indeed. He performs extremely well in my magicite team but I should probably start using him as MCH instead of BLM. I can't boost his thunder damage with gear if he's using magic due to my lack of magical gear in that sense. Sadly his rod is sinergy locked![]()
I may have missed this but if you don't know what to pick from the osb/burst/ssb set I really recommend FF3. Two wind spears and arc's ssb2 is really good plus is holy robe, for whatever that's worth. The difference between it and pen's usb is much less than the difference between most damage SSBs and ultra.
On a side note I already have 2 of the 3 items there so not sure what to pick. Trying to decide between V (osb sucks but it's an osb and there's an enwater) VI (the omega waifu) X (water sword but everything else is useless) XI (osb) XIII (literally just for lightning burst 2) 15 (noctis but eh) and FFT (osb is an osb).
Pull on B1 they said.
It'll be fun, they said.

Spoiler: show
I somehow forgot to SS one of my 33 pulls but here's what the other ones gave me.
The missing image had Gladio OSB, some snow junk and nothing really noteworthy enough for me to remember off the top of my head.
Still can't decide on a realm for the choice banner;
No dupes on I or II and would give realm heal for each but I'm awash in holy knights
XI would help on on phys ice since I have almost none, dupe on Prishe though
XIII I have Lightning's LMR, though I already have Cid OSB and Kain BSB, heal is a dupe
XIV since only other fire mag is Ace BSB and Krile BSB, Ysh is a dupe
Ayame is the 3rd best physical ice in the game atm. Her bsb,cmd2 and hailstorm are 3 stackable buffs to atk. Unlike the rest of your options she’s a full package with just that even if there’s no form of shout in the party.
You could just pull banner 2 to see if you get lightning gear from that first for ffxiii and lightning’s Osb is supposedly a disappointment.
FFXIV has a fire staff in it so that’s worth keeping in mind.
Ff bsb is weak but extremely fun looking in my experience.
Ff2 osb is fairly bad as far as OSBs go due to him needing an absurd amount of holy hits to maximize the damage while not actually having ANY knight abilities outside of bsb to make the already bad situation worse.
I’m personally biased towards you picking FFXI.
One last consideration is that there might be a FFXI banner coming in for the FFXI anniversary that you can use to get ayame a USB as well.
I'd suggest Papalymo then. Ace's BSB is incredible, especially against Isgebind, but Krile is incredibly dull. His 6* weapon's fire boost is sinergy locked thoughIf you're already full of holy knights and relics there's no point in I or II unless you can/will want to abuse Firion's BSB (which should be in one of the free selections coming up soon with the CM revamp iirc).
Edit: The XI banner coming up (assuming we get it in GL) also has Ayame's BSB in it so it's a potential dupe. First 11 pull is half priced btw.
Ace needs USB as well, no? BSB doesnt have en-fire best i can recall.
It doesn't but his BSB is instant cast and has party physical blink. You use it for utility not damage but even without Enfire his damage isn't that bad with proper gear boost.
100 trash
2/11 Lightning Glint and Kain LMR
2/11 Lightning Arcane and Lightning BSB2 Dupe
2/11 Lightning BSB2 dupe Rinoa BSB2 dupe
2/11 Kain Chain and Squall Arcane
D:
A pull to make people salty: Main
Kain CSB and Squall BSB2 are dupes. But my lord, I got 2/4 of my wants on one pull, so I'm calling it quits here. Only missed on Lightning AOSB and Squall glint.
100 Gem - Rinoa BSB2 (dupe)
2/11 - Squall and Lightning...! ...glints >.< at least not dupes, +10 Attack, and boost-elements for both so I guess I cant complain. Might pull again.
1/11 Lightning Glint. Kinda meh but at least it's an elemental boost weapon.
2/11 Dupe Squall BSB2, Lightning AOSB.
Resigned myself to pull twice on this phase because I only had 3 things on it (lightning USB, kain bsb, squall lmr) and everything else is just great
3/11
Squall BSB2 (yay finally)
Squall Glint (yay versatility/+10 attack and most importantly native +ice dmg armor!)
Rinoa BSB2 (first SB for her)
1/11 blehhh :\
Squall AOSB Alright! And as if the ASOB wasn't great enough, I didn't realize this had native +ice dmg, too! :D
And with that, ice goes from being one of my weakest elements to one of my strongestI have enough for 2 more pulls which I play for banner 5. I just need to resist pulling again on this banner
![]()

100 gems of nope
pull#1: 1/11: Dupe Lightning BSB2. Enter salt mode
pull#2:Spoiler: show
CSB #3 and STUFF FOR RINOA FINALLY
So.... This banner has the most dupes (Kain BSB/Chain, Lightning USB/BSB2, Squall BSB2).
However, Squall is husbando and Lightning is waifu, so I decided to throw my last 50 mythril in the hopes of Squall/Lightning AOSB/Glint/LMR....
2/11: Both Disco Balls!
Dupe Kain Chain (FUUUUUUUU at least its a better stat stick)
and....
Squall AOSB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Native ice boost sword as well to boot! Tremble in fear Tiamat!
Edit: Now for the first time..... Hoarding till next fest. No banners interest me except Squall USB2 and Bartz AOSB and next fest.
