FF:BE - Let Them Eat Mogcake

[theshun]

Saw a 1200 GLSakura today. Emp weapon, double WKN accesorries, and 40%+ material only.

[Zealot]

Speaking of WKN I imagine he's coming up again next month.

[Alkar]

Roy banner incoming, Black friday bundle (saw a moogle, 10+1 ticket, a sword and a materia), Noctis and Ring buffs, Blood Moon Trial, FFXV event announced (Gladio, Cor, Iris), 3% rainbow increase!

[Prothescar]

Korea stuff:

-They've so far won 2 4*+ EX tickets, 11 3*+ EX tickets, and a 10+1 ticket. Additionally: Free daily summon for 10 days, 2 King Metal Cactuars a day for 5 days, Expansion vouchers?, 500 FFXV mog king currencies per day for 14 days, 1 1% TM Mog per day for 10 days.
-3% Rainbows confirmed coming on or a bit after Black Friday (this Friday for you foreigners; confirmed to be permanent, not just a promotion).
-Noctis confirmed getting buffed to his JP status, along with Ring of Lucii getting its 30%ATK/MAG buffs, with the upcoming FFXV banner. (Gladio, Cor, and Iris)
-Bloody Moon is coming this week.
-Roy is also coming this week, along with Aura and Grom.
-Ramza enhancements were a dodged topic. Obviously pretty touchy for Gumi.
-Three different Black Friday bundurus, including a mixture of a 100% Moogle, a 10+1 ticket, a 4*+ ticket, some equipment, and some materia. Unknown which combinations/prices.
-Design a unit contest winner: https://cdnb.artstation.com/p/assets...jpg?1505178513


edit: o. beat.

[Alkar]

Expansion vouchers are those purple tickets to increase your unit/material/equipment storage.
Poor Ramza getting ignored even after Roy's release lol, will they enhance Lunera instead? XD

[Prothescar]

I got it backwards apparently, XV is this week Roy is next week. Also it's 1 4G ticket rather than 2. Will be a total of 5 Expansion Tickets (1/day for 5 days)

[Byrthnoth]

I'm sensibly excited about the 3% rainbow rate.

[Teryu]

I didnt know it was that close. I should have saved my 10+1 tickets

Are you sure about this? XV is another King Mog event and we're currently having one (plus the usual week to redeem unless I missed something).

[Starby]

I look forward to spending my hoarded tickets (5 10+1, 19 ex tickets) and hopefully getting 1 or 2 rainbows. If I manage Ayaka, Dark Veritas, or Onion Knight, I'll be very happy. 75 units at a 3% rate should work out to 2ish rainbows if my math in my head is right. Hopefully it works out.

Edit: Oddsbitch has the current jp rates as an option and according to that I have a 90% chance of at least 1 rainbow. I like those odds.

While I can't bring myself to feel like the lore of that original character fits with this game, the fact they went the ecchi route with her design does not surprise me at all. Never change, Japan.

[Malithar]

3% rainbows being less than a week away is tons of hype. Glad they pushed it out before the new year.

Now just gotta hope my hoarding doesn't backfire...

[Prothescar]

Yea, odds of getting a rainbow goes up something stupid like 20-30% by changing the rate from 1% to 3% for me

[Malithar]

I had never checked oddsbitch but gave it a looksee after seeing someone mention it. With the tickets I plan to throw down, it says my expected rainbows will be 11.88. I'd be ecstatic with that. It's 99.2% for at least 5.

I'm pissed neither of my two entries made it.

[Alkar]

GL Noctis will be stronger than JP Noctis (before enhancements obviously). Basically they'll buff every single skill that's weaker in GL while keeping the stronger ones (Flasks).

[Starby]

I never knew the flasks were stronger. When the buff Noctis what does his role become? Hybrid support/sometimes a finisher? It seems like he'll be clunky.

[Karbuncle]

Noctis and Ring buffs

Knew it! Hot damn!

[Alkar]

He's a very versatile finisher with a bunch of utility. He can play support if you have his LB maxed but you need that every 2 turns, not exactly reliable.

[Karbuncle]

He was the first LB i maxed out. Looking forward to it.
