    Did 3 pulls on the support banner:

    1/11: Auron #1
    2/11: Zarg #2 + Yuraisha #1
    2/11: Zarg #3 + Sylvie #2

    Worth it. Will be doing the same on tanks, then I should have all covered.

    well new units seem rather interesting... and way too complicated to evaluate easily. Which might just regulate them to Zeno status... sure it's the best damage but remembering and using the optimal rotation for that best damage is basically an achievement so might as well use bunny girl lol

    Pretty easy, just load your party with thunder weapons or those that can imbue thunder.

    It's not a farming type thing, just clear all of them and wait for reset next week.

    Should also note elements are supposed to change each week. I believe the moogle is supposed to tell us thru the tips what it is each week

    I 1 hit kill LGD with Regina using a thunder imbue, no buffs or breaks, and no chain. It's definitely more of a farm than an actual challenge.

    So reddit did the Elena math huzzah. Seems the rotation isn't really that bad though nowhere near as braindead as Bunny girl's rotation. Regular TMR set and no external support puts her slightly worse than Zeno's atrocious rotation but that's with only her 50-75% imperil she wins with any good external imperil. Plus having 4 innate imbue/imperils lets her target weaknesses a bit better. No how that compares to a more pimped out build... Still probably not worth if you got the Glex meta already but CG Waifu!

    So don't let that 5% for whole banner fool you on the step up. The extra rainbow rates are 100% for offbanner on banner rates are exactly the same as normal for the regular 3 and 4*+ summons and full no banner rates for the guaranteed 5*. Or to put in an example did full first lap 1 Elena 4 offbanners

    So did 2nd lap and used tickets from it ended up


    Aileen #3, Aloha Lassy #3, Elena x4, Livid Shantoto #2, Lotus Mage fina #4, Morgana x2, Seabreeze Fina #2, Trance Terra #5. Not a bad haul especially since that got me enough to buy a prism for Morgana... lots of 1 more for stmrs lol

    This event is horrendous. You hardly get any points or raid summon items and the raid summons suck extremely bad.

    I assumed something was broken since there are no bonus mobs...

    You actually just get bonus points without having to fight bonus mobs. Seems pretty similar to the Easter event otherwise with once again LGD actually being not the best to farm... in fact it seems like pro is assuming you can get enough bonus companions I suppose and mostly only good with good bonus teams... though this time with less hype and no real old units to use that's a lot less likely

    Free 10+1 got me tidus #4. 5+1 was tmr fodder. Got 7 tickets from the 70 anniversary tickets on Elena event. 3 4* ex and 4 3* ex. Got 2 rainbows from those 7. Ht lid #3 and emperor shera #2. Did 2nd step on Elena and got nada. Few random tickets got me nothing as well. New event gonna be a grind for that 5* ticket.

    Got 2 Elenas during the last step of the stepup! Set her up under Event 1, could only push 2400atk and 2100mag.

    Got 2 rainbows off the 5+1 this morning and the 4* Ex ticket also converted. DKC, Emperor, and Cloud. I didn't need any of them per se, but it let me spend some gil upgrading Cloud. Burning gil is FFBE's real endgame for me.

    Did the Elena banner and got 2x Elena and Seaside Nichol.

    This event has the potential to give a lot of gil, tickets, etc., but good without bonus units it is going to be thoroughly mediocre. I think I'm going to keep taking advantage of the half price trials instead of farming it. If it dropped Esper ore, it might be a different story.

    For the first time in forever....
    A 5+1 had a rainbow for me. Tidus #6 or 7. Meh, better than no rainbow! I think.

    Are you just farming rank or is there some other benefit?

    I've had some pretty good rainbow luck from the Elena stepup and 5+1 tickets, along with maybe a dozenish 3-4* EX tickets. Not much that I need, but I didn't mind what I got. I wish I had gotten a 2nd Elena though instead of so many off banners.

    9th Gilgamesh (so much for the regret of using 5x for first STMR...)
    6th NG Jake
    6th Basch
    6th Veritas of the Dark
    5th Ayaka
    3rd Queen
