FF:BE - A Skinner box with plot

[theshun]

A. Rain 7* can hit 20k HP and 1340 SPR (1443, if you made Crimson Saber SPR). Arena should be fun...

[Yuri-G]

Hyoh's STMR is indeed one-handed, which is fucking hilarious. he's best with Lightning/Fire 2H greatsword, but at this point that's hardly necessary and not worth the moogles imo. different story if you TMR farm. also keep in mind you can use Desch for imbue, or an external imperil along with a different element GS


I think his BiS is actually Arngrim's STMR? but LOL @ that

[Cyn]

Isn't his STMR 1 handed? That alone makes it kinda meh for him due to TDH builds no?

The fact that it has no element and he has no imbues is by far a bigger problem. 180 attack with DH gear is still going to put out big numbers compared to non-STMR 2handers like revolving saw. 720 attack vs 520 attack and +30% average damage. But not having any thunder or fire attacks with 60%-100% imperils is just REALLY bad.

[Alkar]

Yeah but I mean, you'd still not use his STMR even if he had imbues. Cloud's STMR or even Squall's TMR are probably better choices.

[Bladen Ansgar]

64 tickets netted me.

Cloud #1 (finally)
Tidus #3
Elfreeda #4 (yay STMR)
Hyoh #1
Trance Terra #3

Had a 25% Buster Style ready so I'm going to spam that up and then probably UoC another Hyoh if I dont get another before the banner closes. Agni is at 50% and Tonitrus is at 65%, haven't pulled any of either in a while.

Need to get Buster Style, Hyoh's tmr, and A. Rain tmr done asap.

"clear all stages in area" - "lapis: 400"


o.O uh... have they always been this generous? that's not even including the 100 or so lapis from missions... jeebus

[Karbuncle]

In story events, yes.

[Yuri-G]

huh, guess I never noticed that before. that's a fuckton of lapis for one stage lol

Actually that's to make up for the lost Lapis on Stage 1 which they replaced with a UoC ticket. They took those 200 lapis and put them on that one.

His current BiS is actually Nalu's spear STMR. Final build is less attack than the fire GS but the +25% average modifier pulls it ahead.

Obviously that changes when you get units like 7* BBSSakura that can imbue the whole party without otherwise being a total fucking wasted party slot. Then, yeah, 2 handed non elemental GS will beat his if they have similar attack.

Edit: I guess though in the end all that really matters is that his STMR is pretty meh overall and there's not really any reason to take his STMR for him over 2x 7*s of him.

ahhhhh that makes sense


...wait, no it doesn't. this is gumi. you're telling me they took something away... then replaced it?! guess the Grinch's heart truly did grow three sizes today lol

Got Hyoh on ticket 66/73, then i did the 25k stepup first, 3rd step got me a clutch CG Lid#1, Rinoa #1, and Prishe #1, final step got me Hyoh #2. Blew uoc on Nalu no ragrets to get her tmr because no marshals, burned all 500% worth of trust mogs no ragrets, on fire blade agni for fire element, lion heart for non-element, prishe’s hairpin, hyoh’s clothes, and Nalu’s TMR. Feels amazing, i can either have non elemental hyoh with 2100+ atk, or fire elemental hyoh with 2075 atk.

Numbers will still be big but not necessarily bigger... like at low atk values yeah STMR gunna beat revolving. At high atk values saw gunna have a slight edge... though no where near what taking advantage of imperils and elementals chains is of course but still silly that an STMR greatsword will often lose to one we got from MK event

I have Angi ready for when I UoC him, and I feel very dirty. Fryevia will be benched as my team turns fire based. I have that and 2-3 fire katanas augmented with decent attack from IW. If only there was a good ice great sword. That would make me happy.

[Deathbringer]

Went from 178-> 40 tickets before stopping to challenge the 11k Step-up and....

Spoiler: show

Also ended up with from tickets:

Elfreeda #8
Ayaka & Marrie #4
Yuna #3
L.Shantotto #5
Roy(!!)

Welp

[Yuri-G]

jesus fuck lol that is one hell of a pull, grats

[dasva]

I swear these last 2-3 pages have had all decently above average rainbow rates.... except me. Guess I need to challenge the 11k

[Zealot]

I got Hyoh from the 11k pull on Step 4, didn't get a single rainbow on Step 5.

[DFJS]

There's been quite a few people getting hyou's like that. Seen some on Facebook and reddit. My 11k was all blues except for the guaranteed 4* mixed in. Congratz everyone on all their brand new shiny rainbows.

[Cyn]

The 11k was very friendly to me on Raegen banner but this time it just shat all over me. Literally all blues other than guaranteed golds. Had to go 8 pulls into the other step up to get 2 Hyohs, and the second Hyoh was the ONLY non guaranteed rainbow I got. I KNEW I blew my luck on that Freyvia yesterday.

PSA: If you're going to use Hyoh in arena, consider DW as an option.
