Unless you're planning to do 1000 runs of it, it won't make that much of a difference desu. Bulk of your cakes will come from crafting anyway, and you need more ingredients for that.

By my calculations, that's 30k extra cakes by the end of the event.

My BE team:

Terra (4)
Rain (3)
Rydia (4)
Cyan (4)
Kain (4)

Additionally I got all those guys in the pic.

Is my team fine or do I have somebody better?
>>
>>153569250
Kain and Zidane are useful for TM, Shantotto is great mage, Terra has Rise, overall decent
>>
>>153569250
Krile is better than every one of your units dude.

And Zidane is better than Rain I think
>>
>>153569353
>Shantotto
>great mage
No she isn't. She's 4* trash and if you want a 4* trash mage, Vivi shits on her.
>>
>>153569353
>>153569360

switched rain for zidane

is krile really that good?
I don't really know who to repleace, maybe I can take cyan off? I like terra and rydia too much
>>
>>153569640
cyan is bad, rydia is also bad
>>
>>153569640
Krile gets Dualcast, and she can Dualcast anything, not just black magic like Vivi. She's great for Dualcasting Gravity, Cura, Blindna, Poisona, Bravery, etc etc
>>
>>153569640
Krile is currently the #3 mage in global right now, as well as the #3 white mage. She's arguably the #1 or #2 support too.

All at the same time.
>>
>>153569754
>>153569753
guess I'll be getting her in place of rydia
>>
what did you do to me /ffg/, I had fun playing just globalversions of BE and RK, but my JPRK account is already stronger than my GL account and I just downloaded japanese BE. Do you jap players use altema to know details on events etc or is there any english source for this?
>>
>>153569842
same source as all the global info: Reddit.
>>
>>153569754
>She's arguably the #1 or #2 support too
Not entirely sure what you mean by Support, but there's no way that's true if you mean what I think you mean. She doesn't have Cheer OR Focus.
>>
>>153569913
She can Dualcasting Bravery, Protect etc though.

Krile is an amazing support unit. She is the definition of what support means. She offheals, buffs the party, removes status effects and does damage as well. All while having decent defense due to being able to equip shields etc.
>>
>>153569913
She is a support in the sense that she can dualcast Bar-element spells. Which you don't really need for anything in global right now so it's mostly irrelevant.
>>
>>153569913
>Dualcast Bravery
>Dualcast Faith
She's good at what she does. Not the best in the world.
>>
>>153567435
They'll wind up taking on the roles of the other characters at some point, no big deal in the grand scheme.

The way to play FF1 is swap Thief for Monk and BM for RM.
>>
>>153570016
Bravery and Protect suck, and are still single target even with her Dualcasting.
>>
>>153565492
Nope. Next dungeon update is supposedly will be at the 6th of this month.
>>
>>153569250
Reroll senpai, it's not too late.
>>
>>153570105
They're still single target even though she puts it on two different units...
>>
>>153570105
Can confirm. As someone who actually used Krile for quite some time, I never found that shit useful. Having her cast abilities that don't suck is a lot better
>>
>>153570212
Uh, yeah. The spell is single target. Dualcast Protect is still worse than someone else casting Protectga.
Having her cast that shit is a waste of time.
>>
>>153570298
Did you see his party?

Who the fuck is casting Protectga, Cheer and Focus?

Are you fucking retarded?
>>
>>153570403
If you don't have aoe buffs, you shouldn't cast buffs at all. That is a waste of fucking time.

Also, Fina will be casting Cheer soon enough.
>>
>>153570403
You're the one who's retarded if you think casting Protect twice rather than dualcasting some black spell is a good idea at any point. It's AoE or nothing, especially for weak buffs like that.
>>
>>153563689
Dude was pretty cool. Smart enough to question things but also dedicated to his duty even when everything went to shit.
Rule well, young King.
>>
>>153570482
>>153570538
>>153570403
Person who first claimed Krile was top tier support here, I meant mostly the bar- spells. It's still pretty situational but I use it more than I do Lenna's cheer. Support itself is situational in this game.

It's not worth wasting her slots on other things.
>>
>>153570275
>>153570482
Faith is worth it on Kefka so Hyperdrive explodes to hell and back, but he doesn't have Kefka so whatever.
>>
>>153570726
Plus the single turn Deshell+Faith Combo can work very well for those who lack a full breaker.
>>
>>153570864
You know what works a lot better for someone who lacks a full breaker? Bringing a friend with Full Break.
>>
>>153570950
Krile is good
>>
>>153571064
I never said she isn't but she isn't good because she can dualcast weakass buffs and debuffs.
>>
>>153571182
she's good because she can dualcast anything your party benefits most from
>>
>>153570689
>It's still pretty situational but I use it more than I do Lenna's cheer
Are you running a mage team or something? Because I find that pretty unbelievable.
>>
>>153571230
Pointless, weak versions of those things, anyway.
>>
>>153571415

I don't think you understand what the word pointless means lol
>>
Guys is Setzer at least decent in BE? Or at least better than Firion?
>>
>>153571642
His TM breaks the fucking game into little tiny shredded pieces.
>>
>>153571642
He's pretty good
>>
>>153571642
He is fun to use, but the random nature of his abilities make it hard for him to enter in most teams unless you have extra space, his damage can be pretty good tho and his TM is top tier.
>>
>>153571805
>>153571936
So having six of him is a good thing? Time to stop farming for elemental resistances. But how is he good besides being a TM whore?

BE got a new event that's actually pretty good(especially since its gumi original from what I see) and due to the recent gacha change in JP people are starting it up now
RK only has the FFT and Dissidia part2 events going onright now and nothing worth mentioning especially since most of us know this game in and out at this point
Mobius is pretty shit
People havent picked up the pinball game yet
>>
>>153572723
It's a 2-handed projectile with 1 ATK.
Also it does a huge amount of damage but with big variance, its attacks average out to doing like 300-something percent normal damage though. Basically if you stick it on a high ATK unit it can outperform Dual Wield most of the time.
>>
>>153572573
Fusion increases the card's skillseed (used to unlock job upgrades) when you fuse cards of the same element, the card's ability level when you fuse cards with the same ability (even if they have different names, like shiva and 3* adamantiny), and the card's level.
Augmentation (unlocked at chapter 2) increases card's star rank, and upgrade "lesser"-type abilities to normal abilities at rank 3* upgrade (2* adamantiny have lesser blizzaga, 3* adamantiny have blizzaga, just like 3* Shiva).

It's somewhat on par with normal JP events, except we have to pay 900 Lapis or macro the shit out of it. Decent, but improvable.

The equipment cost is fucked up, though, it should be 3k and 10k for the two equips.
>>
>>153573616

>>
>>153572961

>>

No idea about Bluestacks, in Nox you have a record button that records all clicks during a time period until you click stop.

I keep on hearing that, but "better" is a subjective term and when it's difficult to sit through even the first five hours it's obnoxious to even contemplate sitting through the first 20+.

>>153573886
Fuse them or sell.
If you augment one card to 2*/3*, all future drops of that card will also be upgraded to 2*/3* automatically, but the cards on your inventory will remain unchanged.
But upgrading to 4* (if available, most dropped cards can't reach 4*) won't affect future drops (3* is the max upgrade for future drops).

Well scratch that shit, this seems worth keeping now

Well, you get more exploration, more diverse environments, the battle system finally starts working as it should, and the formulaic party drama gets mostly solved. For me, all this plus the lore made it worth it.
>>
>>153575649
You had an extra bar, similiar to Arena. Max 5 points, refill 1 point each hour (or with Lapis or level ups). Depending on how much damage you dealt, you got event currency (up until total HP for max currency). There was a global health bar for the boss - when it was reduced to zero, the boss got more HP and everybody got 8% bonus currency for each level.

Said bonus currency could be used at the gatcha to pull special mats and one of three event units.

Your own points also got you rewards at certain thresholds per mail, including each event character once and a 10% Trust Moogle.

Is the NA mobius fine or should I just grab the Japanese version for potential/better collabs?

So why is everyone super excited about the shitty event mace (CoD gets better equipment soon enough) when the event shield is the only one to ever give +MAG?

So are these mog cakes worth it without a script running? I dont really feel like playing a whole game on the go.
>>
>>153578864
the absolute minimum you NEED to get is the shield(because holy shit a shield with MAG bonus) and summon tickets, you can really ignore the other rewards
>>
>>153578782

he's literally RNG the character

can hit from 1,11,555,5555, or 7777

and he'll learn an AoE one later as well.

plus a bunch of other neat gimmicks
>>
>>153579157
Yeah I can tell he's RNG based, which is neat and true to his shtick as a gambler, but looking through his skills it doesnt look like any of them can bite you in the ass with its random nature, at most just not hit as hard
>>
>>153578971
Some of the Quartz is also super duper cheap and it'd be silly not to buy it.

The rest is a trap though. The meisu is alright, but there will be better options at some point soon enough. (Unless you are a hopeless Krilefag like myself who still can't stomach giving her the Enhancer)

Trust Moogle is literally less efficient than Earth Shrine. LB pots are a sick joke, and the Rabbit Foot is a sicker joke.
>>
>>153578971
I just saw it. My autism wants everything but the crafting ingredients.

Jesus christ I dont have time for this shit.

>>153579358
Is the premium box truely the most efficient way to do it? Are the materials drops from fights or mining?
>>
>>153578971
>>153579358
The mace is really not that bad to be honest, we'd get the thorn mace later on, but eh, 60 att is really nice.
>>
>>153579936
it's not bad, but as you said there will be better stuff, the shield is one of a kind though
>>153579731
Do maranda beach exploration with the maximized exp value(you can read more on the exviuswiki page for that map) and you should have enough(or close to enough) for one craft the premium box
>>
So is it worth getting a crafting slot and one of those lapis recipes?
>>
>>153580376
yes

the premium one
and one extra slot

if you do explorations every day and refresh your crafting every eight hours you'll be able to get everything good

So, anyone know the amount limit to the materials? Really hope its not 999.
>>
>>153580110
Oh yeah, the shield is a must. I'm just saying the mace is an okay purchase, unlike if you bought the LB pots, or rabbit foot, or god forbid the consumables. Now those you really fucked up.
>>
>>153580517
lol it is 999

you have to farm every day
>>
>>153580507
>>153580376
I'd argue against the premium one, just the mid-tier is good enough. The rest is luxury and unneeded.

You NEED some buffer time to be able to run the explorations to their max. 3 hours is more than enough of a buffer, 15 minutes is just too small.

It will pay for itself, because it lets you get all 10 tickets.
>>
>>153580517
I'm currently at 2875 flour sacks.

So pretty sure it's 9999.
>>
>>153580726
>I'd argue against the premium one, just the mid-tier is good enough. The rest is luxury and unneeded.

it's still worth it
>>
>>153580517
The visual is bugged to only show 999 in some circumstances, but you can have thousands of each in a stack.
>>
>>153580657
no it's not, I have over 1.3 k of some items
>>
>>153580507
>>153580726
So they drop from any exploration? Phantom Forest the best so you can farm esper stuff too, or is there a better choice?
>>
>>153580857
Not really.
It's 500 more lapis than the rare bundle, and all it gives you is an extra little bit of buffer time for when you don't want to play. The materials are clearly not the limiting factor in this event, and the increase is minuscule.

Macros solve this issue, so the only time you wouldn't go for the rare is if you're purist scum.

I could pull two whole sabins for that price.
>>
>>153581021
The farthest you go, the better. So Dinardo explorations are the best.
>>
I just realized something important, JPBE's anniverasry should be comming up soon-ish, like october?
>>
>>153581021
Maranda Coast / Dwarves Forge drop the most materials by far. Expect hundreds of each in a single run.

Kobold Reefer drops the most whole cakes, expect ~100-200 each run.
>>
>>153581137
Makes sense.

>>153581157
There any difference between Forge and Coast? I haven't finished clearing Forge due to dunes yet and haven't had the time to finish since then.
Guessing ingredients > straight cakes too?
>>
>>153581031
If you want to use the rare bundle and maintain the same level of production as the premium bundle you have to wake up twice in the middle of the godamn night.

No fucking thank you lol

>buffer time for when you don't want to play
I'll take two!

>>153581031
It also great for people like, that to travel a lot tomorrow and won't have instant access to a computer. And while the price are not optimal for minmaxers/macrofags, it will still pay for itself, so by all intents and purposes it's still worth it desu.

Coast is better for ingredients, Forge is better for whole cakes.

Because Forge sucks compared to the Reef though, you should use the Coast.

You don't need 100% efficiency. Mats come at a surplus, and two runs is enough to last the whole day.

>>
>>153582551
Not really, no.

Let's take a sample run from Maranda Coast. 450 Flour, 106 Eggs, 128 Rock Sugar, and 288 Lotus Paste. Two runs would be 900 flour, 212 eggs, 256 sugar, and 576 paste.

One rare bundle needs 30 sugar, 30 eggs, 45 seed paste, and 150 flour. That means two runs would last you 6 hours limited only by Flour. Get more flour and the rest will last you 8-12 hours.
With the premium bundle, it's even better.

I know they're games and not supposed to make sense; but it really is silly that the later game towns in fantasy games are surrounded by high level monsters that could easily massacre everyone, and there's often like 2-3 soldiers max. Sometimes not even that. The later games at least made more sense with large fortified towns defended by a proper military.

So, I just finished this game for the first time since it released. Put it off due to the memes and negativity around it but finally got around to it.

Honestly, fuck /v/. This was an amazing game the whole way through and it all "worked" for me in a way that other games just haven't for a long time. I'm not a big fan of FF or JRPGs (although I do play many of the big names) either, but this game - I feel like I just discovered a hidden gem except it was never hidden, does that make sense?

Just stopped by to share my thoughts.

I couldn't do it. All the characters except for Vanille and Fang were detestable. The entire trilogy can be summed up in the two words "muh feelings".

>>153584142
It worth getting a third you think? Running 3 8h bundles doesn't seem like much effort, since one coast exploration funds one, plus extra.
>>
>>153581156

>>153584000
I recommend it, obviously. I only played the main story and it wasn't that long.

>>153584284
Not sure if I can put it into words right now, but I'll try. The music of the FF games has always been one of my favorite things about them and this one was no different. For example, there is the sequence where you escape the city and join Fang. The track that plays over that part as you run away really caught my attention and I literally restarted the game to listen to it all closer. There are many other moments like this where the music complements and enhances the scenes in a way that other games don't. Have you played MGS? You know when they play their main vocal theme over some scenes? It's like that but more nuanced and subtle. The scene as you walk through Vanille's home on Pulse is another excellent example that just came to mind.

I've only talked about the music, but I guess it's more accurate to call it the set pieces of the game. The scene where Lightning cries and punches Snow - like I said, it all works for me.

>>153584556
Detestable is pretty harsh. I didn't "love" any of them, but I think that's okay because I went in expecting not to like them and that wasn't the case. They were different than expected and even from what I like, but not in a bad way.

>>153584613
I didn't feel like they did anything obviously wrong, but I can see how it wouldn't be for everyone.
>>
>>153586045
We don't know that.
JP never had this event, and Gumi has changed every event so far around for the GL crowd.

In JP, specific banner units enhance the drop chance.
GL's gimmick might instead be that you have to craft stuff and buy recipes.

We could be in for a wild ride here. That's why buying slots isn't such a bad deal.
They're getting great reception for this event, so it'll probably continue.

He could still get at least some summon tickets, if not the shield by grinding Lanzelt explorations. Screamroots and Quartz are also cheap and in his reach.

Just getting to Lanzelt would net him a good chunk of mats too. He could hit 25K cakes in 3 weeks if he started right now.

I think it has to do more with expectations than actual game. When it
came out everyone just got freaked out by how different it is in comparison to usual formula.
I played it when it got ported to PC and liked all the aspects aside from writing, but then again FF isn't really known for writing that makes sense.

Same thing is happening now with FFXV.
>>
>>153578347
Noctis' group seems to be similar in that regard, so I think we're going to get plenty of loyalty and dedication from them at least.
>>
>>153583831
As a whole, I'd say all mainline FFs are head and shoulders above the rest of JRPGs. There are games that do one aspect or another better, but none of them provide this full package FF does.

>>
>>153595590
This is the wrong thread. You want the XIV general.
>>
>>153595590
Race is purely cosmetic. Pick whatever looks cool to you. The game has a mechanic for changing the race and gender of your character later on if you want. It's designed so you can do everything with a single character.

For class, do you prefer Tank, Healer, or DPS?
Marauder and Gladiator are tanks, later they become Warrior and Paladin respectively. Paladin is more pure tanking, Warrior lets you tank while still doing a bit of DPS.

Conjurer is the pure healer, later it becomes White Mage.
Arcanist is magic DPS but later on you can choose to upgrade to either Scholar which is a healer, or Summoner which is DPS.

All the other classes are DPS. Rouge/Ninja can't be chosen as a starting class, you have to switch to it later on.

The game lets you switch classes when you get to level 10, but you need to get to level 15 to have access to all the cities and all the classes from the vanilla version of the game. If you got Heavensward you have to clear all of the original game content before you can get access to the expansion content, including the new classes from that expansion. That means getting to level 50 before any expansion stuff, takes about a month to do.

I've been playing, I'm only up to Zone 7 but it does seem pretty fun. Seems like the grinding is a lot simpler than other SE mobages, I like the simplicity. I pulled Shiva on my first pull, and did a second one and got Ramuh. I have enough orbs to go again, but I'm not sure if I should do it or save them for whatever's coming out later.

>>153598997
I haven't had problems with the main screen, but the game is definitely kind of buggy. Changing members of my team is a pain to pull off, and now I have the game telling me I have achievements to collect but when I go to the achievement screen there's nothing to click on.

They just announced a maintenance period starting later tonight. Hopefully they'll be able to fix the issues so the game works for more people.

Should I buy a third Forge slot for Mogcakes, or is that just what the joogles want?
>>
>>153601336
Absolutely worth it kupo.

Genuinely though, you get 10 tickets out of this event. Assuming you buy the second and third slot that's 300 lapis, or 1.333 tickets.
Assuming you also bought the mid tier recipe, that's 700 total lapis spent, or 2.8 pulls. Assuming you bought the premium bundle, that's 1200 lapis, or 4.8 pulls.

So you get anywhere from 7.2 to 5.2 pulls for free depending on how aggressive you play. It pays for itself and a nice bonus.

And remember that Gumi will likely implement this type of thing again in GL, so it's even better.

kupo

>>153601829
I bought the super one that was 900. With three slots, I'm spitting out ~4500 cakes a go for ~13k per day.

>>153592537

It literally happens with every FF. I can remember how my friend said VII disappointed him and he felt FF was starting to falter, and 7 didn't measure up compared to Phantasy Star IV to him.

Or the conversations back in the day about Tactics not being a FF.

It's madness, but it's been going on since forever. It's almost charming the bluster you have going on when a new FF comes out. It's like clockwork.

It's happening for XV because it's almost as much of a tradition to have bitching on a new release as it is to see Moores or Chocobos.

People will buy it, and whether it makes a large or small new subfandom remains to be seen.

It by far hasn't
>>
>>153567630
It sure fucking is. I've gone hundreds of rounds already with no RM to show for it. Fucking faggots.
>>
>>153602112
Not a bad choice, it only costs you two additional pulls over the next tier down.

For people with lives, the premium bundle is the best way to ensure a return of investment. There's nothing to lose, you get that lapis value back and then some.
For people without lives, the rare bundle works just the same but with enough lapis leftover for two more half-pulls.

You can technically get all the good items with 2 slots and constant uptime, but 3 allows you a very big buffer. Plus it allows you to take advantage of the amount of mats you have saved up for the last week.

For once, gumi was uncharacteristically not-jewish.

It's almost like they actually did the math themselves for once.

Even if you bought both bundles (why), and upgraded your slots to 4 from 1, you would still have a net gain of 100 lapis in the end.

Even ignoring the actual event items, this is a good deal.

>>153611725
If you're that worried, don't be.

Even with 4 slots, you're still at a net gain in lapis value. 4 slots costs 600 lapis, which means you still get 2 free summons from the event tickets on top of breaking even.

And that's assuming you bought the expensive bundle. With the cheaper one, you would still get 4 free summons out of it. Plus any actual event items, of course.

What's so special about this Cid anyway.

I don't understand this logic.
Why is everyone judging the worth entirely on the summon tickets?
>>
>>153582601
I play on an iphone
>>
>>153611983
He was a general in the Cocoon military forces working for the Fal'cie but he helps the party out because he wants to overthrow the Fal'cie. Except later it's revealed he was working for the Fal'cie and helping the party under there orders because the Fal'cie want Cocoon destroyed. Then he has a change of heart at the last minute and encourages the party to fight against their fate, and makes them fight him to prove they have the power to stand up to the Fal'cie.

tl;dr: It doesn't matter because FFXIII's plot is dumb and he's the most forgettable Cid ever. I don't know why he's in RK, maybe Japan liked.

They should have give us Jihl McTits&Glasses.
>>
>>153612735
Because what the fuck else are you going to use lapis for besides pulling. Lapis is for pulling.

1 pull = 250 lapis = 1 ticket.
This is a universal conversion that exists.

You are getting more pulls out of the event than you put into it, no matter what you spend on gathering the resources. Those pulls can be measured in lapis even.
Spending the initial lapis just ensures that you will be able to return your investment. It would be hard to even get all 10 tickets with the 15 minute cooker.
>>
>>153612879
So what you're saying is you have inbuilt switch controls that make macroing EVEN EASIER?

Because that's true you know.
>>
>>153613251
I can run scripts on an iphone?
>>
So where do i farm cake materials? Do i farm mines or monsters? Or both?
>>
>>153613094
The point is that you're aiming to get more than just the tickets.
Most people are going to get the +15% HP.
Some at least are going to get the +20% MP.
Near everyone is going to get the mace, shield, and trust moogle.\
I know I'm intending to get as many of those gigas as I can before the event ends in addition to all of that magicite, etc.
>>
>>153613408
Yes, even easier than Android users (who have to root to get it to work).

And you are in the clear if gumi comes down hard on macroers, because that's considered inbuilt hardware. It's literally the best way to macro.
>>
>>153612735
at the end of the day the main use of lapis will always be for summon. it's a pretty sound logic, really.

Well that goes without saying. People aren't playing the event for the piddly little amount of tickets you get back.

But people are worried primarily that they're wasting lapis on the event items.
People don't like to spend lapis on anything but summons. None of the stuff in the event would be worth spending 1000% lapis on ordinarily.

But these concerns are unfounded, because you also get a full return on your investments plus some additional summons for your trouble.
You aren't wasting lapis by spending it to try for the event rewards, it's a worthwhile investment.

I can't speak for everyone, but I don't really care about summons anymore. I have Chiz, Leo, and 2 Kefka's, and a Tellah and Locke if I need him. Only thing I do need to make my team is Lenna to replace Fina. So the only time I will do 11x summons is for a healer.

Yeah, there are probably better characters coming, but not worth chasing for me.
>>
>>153618137
But in JP, literally all of those characters are second rate. That's what summoning is for.

Nobody's saying summon right now, they're saying save summons for later so you can get the really good units.

>>
>>153618137
Pulling for units is the entire game. There will be a time when all your ancient garbage won't steamroll everything, despite how easy the game is right now.
Your team would be mediocre garbage in current JP, meaning you've got less than 6 months of use out of it.

Most people hoard lapis. They don't use it to pull now, but save it in the promise that it will get them good units later.
Spending any of that hard earned pull money to get incredibly minor rewards would be a mistake. Most people recognize this.

Thankfully, you don't actually have to spend any of it permanently to get the rewards. That's the reason people are excited about the tickets.

Hey, if there's a way to run around an exploration to collect the gather points in an area followed by running around until all encounters are completed and then run to the next area and repeat followed by clearing the boss, I'm all ears.

>>153615769

at least G5* means you get to build synergy on "blanks", right now you get dick on blanks, fat, phallic, putrid, vomit inducing dick.

Make a makro like this:
> run a bit to the left
> run a bit to the right
> run a bit to the left
> run a bit to the right
> hit the spot where Auto is
> end macro, loop it

This will farm a zone until all encounters are used up (see: Gil farmed). After that, you can pick up the collection points and move to the next zone. Not perfect, but shitloads better than doing all the running and farming manually.

Isn't her base attack 101? Doesn't that mean she has ~10 more attack without them on?

Zadhel Beats out dorfs forge, especially per NRG point.

For the event, you should be alternating between forge and coast for your hero ring farming.

If you've got decent soul breaks it helps a lot. As long as you got one of those recharge white magic spells each round on your healer, you should be able to charge up to full 3 SB bars on everyone. If you don't want to make the fight too easy, it's worth it to just do 1 bar full for everyone.

>>153631798
Forge has a steady stream of completed cakes, but it also has more overall mats per NRG point too. The coast gives a shitload more Lotus Paste, but at the cost of the other mats, so they end up in a weird proportion.

It's a minuscule difference, so just choose whichever you like at the time. Getting enough ingredients isn't the hard part here, it's crafting the mats.

For lots of mogcakes directly dropped, Kolobos Reef is the best option. You can get up to 200+ at a time.

You notice any rares that are better than others? Or is it all just filler until you can snag a super-rare?
>>
Guess I should ask out of curiosity, since I really need to pick back int RK again, any suggestions for abilities or RM I should be working on? I had kinda crap luck with orbfest, so all I got out of it really was full break and I've been lazing on the events lately.
And just for fun, how would you set up a party with what I have?

I've noticed that. I don't think it dropped any finished cakes either.
I guess I'll push out the last bit of Forge story and start doing exploration there instead until I have 20 fire megacrysts so I can get a couple rings going.

The best way is to not even try to go for the diagonal: just push one of the directions and it should work (so if you need to press down-left you can actually just press down or left and it'll register as a diagonal)

If you honestly believed the ledditors when they said that you were a hell of a retard.

They probably didn't even mean it like that. They probably just meant you have 8 hours of freetime where it saves you from dealing with the micromanagement.
>>
>>153634002
This retard claimed that someone on Reddit thought the premium recipe would automatically start crafting more when it's done. More than likely he just misinterpreted something he read on there and his retard brain couldn't figure out how it made no sense and just took it at face value.

Will full break include mind break in it so you can double stack is mind break the only source of mind reducing?
>>
>>153634156
no, but there will be fuller break SBs and probably other mind reducing SBs as well.
>>
>>153634156
Still just the original 4.
There are SBs that are basically "Fuller Break" that include MND that stack with Full Break.

I'm going to assume the x is supposed to be some unknown number and that he isn't dumb enough to think the stacks ended at 999.

Obviously he meant that you can set up the cycle so that your second batch of the day is done right before you go to bed so you can get your eight hours of sleep and wake up just in time to start the next batch. You'd have to be literally braindead to think he meant it automatically starts crafting the next ones.

Congratulations on having literally no critical thinking.

So, ignoring that Braska's Final Aeon is the last "proper" boss of X (because Yu Yevon, even if he's a joke, is considered the "final" boss of the game), Chaos is our first Final Fantasy last boss in FFRK in their final boss form. (Mana Beast has been in multiple events now, but we'll never get 'em)

I wonder if they'll make a realm dungeon for him anytime soon.

It's not like they're totally tapped even for I yet after they put Chaos out.
>>
>>153637886
You can beat Penance in a legitimate way. It's annoying, utterly pointless, and getting the right stats takes forever, but it can be done.
>>
>>153638231
No, I'm telling you right now it's never been done.

Dark Anima has been done exactly one time by a skilled turbo-autist, and even he can't do NSG Penance.

Every day you login, you get free rewards.
Most of the time, it's free energy.

Additionally, Gumi provides free gifts as appeasement for their fuckups and as "celebration" to lure you into trap banners.

You can access these rewards on the mail screen. They expire after 30 days, but you can save them until then no problem.

>>153640376
If that's the case, you must have literally JUST started playing. Either you rolled shit, or you're too new for the event to even matter.
>>
>>153640584
I always claimed these but all I have is lapis and tickets, nothing that can help me progress
>>
>>153640689
You shouldn't always claim them, especially the NRG rewards.

We must have gotten like an entire week's straight worth of NRG refills in the past month. And you basically wasted them.

You want to save them for events if possible, and use them on the 30th day if it isn't possible.

What's your team like? You can beat all the current islands with Story Characters and Friend Units summons, so you're either underleveled or doing something wrong.
>>
>>153640689
do vortex if you're underleveled and then just focus on finishing the main story stages, you will still get mats and cakes along the way.
higher tier rewards are probably out of the question but you can still get some rewards from king jewgle

Did I get it wrong or is Sanguine cross supposed to kill the one using it after 4 uses?

The description of the ability reads: "3,80 multiplier, damages the user for 25% max HP"

Or is it referring to the damage it deals and that 25% of that will be dealt to the user? Because that sounds even more suicidal.

Because even the in-game description makes you think it's a % of your HP, the spreadsheet just says how much.

Leo is moderately more useful than Cecil for the time being - you'll want to max Cecil eventually as he gets a 6* and Leo probably won't.

Aetherial Pulse is not a Medica. If you need healing, you can't rely on regen - use Eiko's BSB.

AP allows you to drop ProShell as abilities but the value of that utility is questionable.

It deals 25% of max HP as damage to the user = death in 4 uses unless you heal.

Kluya's lunarian blood was stronger in Golbez, it's why Zemus could control him.
But this raises further questions as to why Fusoya and Zemus are not huge either.
>>
>>153663391
>>153657679
I think the correct answer would be that Golbez is just freakishly tall
>>
>>153657679
>>153663391
Here's a real shocker! What if he just happens to be really tall? What if it has nothing to do with him being Lunarian and everything to do with an armored manlet not being imposing as a villain so they made him tall to make him look intimidating?
>>
>>153647513

>>
>>153663837
>It's not like making him as tall as Cecil would have changed anything
Yes it would. The fact that he towers over everyone makes him more intimidating. The guy's huge and it makes him look badass. It's the same reason he's fucking ripped in TAY where you see him without his armor.

Poor writing, poor acting, poor directing, tonal inconsistency and pandering that added nothing to the movie. Nothing about the whole thing stood out in the slightest and it certainly didn't make me excited for XV.

>>153666047
The first half of the movie is relatively grounded, but as the thing progresses it just becomes increasingly more ridiculous anime bullshit. The scene where the emperor and king talk about the "stolen thing" was fucking ridiculous too and completely ruined what could have been a tense scene. Maybe it could have worked with good writers, but it just came off hamfisted and corny as all hell.

Diamond Weapon and Ultros were literally just there for "hey, look! There's that thing you recognize from Final Fantasy!"

I dunno man, I took it at face value and enjoyed it's steady climb to being over the top. It's really no more different from other FFs. Heck even in FFI things at the beginning were pretty grounded until you made it to the Flying Temple or whatever it was called and suddenly technology.

And I was happy that Diamond Weapon & Ultros had a cameo. I'd much rather that than no FF Monsters at all.

Not trying to rgue with you by the by, just trying to get a feel of the other side of the opinion for the movie. I appreciate you taking the time.

Hey guys

I really liked FFVII, loved FFVIII, hated FFIX and absolutely adored FFX.

What should I play next?

FF4 FF13。They're toaster friendly so you'll be fine.

XIII. It's the logical continuation from X.

FFIX was genuinely not very good though, the characters were terrible. Which installment is VI most comparable to?
>>
>>153668070
Good if your a RPG Noob for its flashy graphics and Auto-Pilot game play.

Bad if you've played any other JRPG
>>
>>153668070

That's shit taste if I ever heard it
>>
>>153668198
>Bad if you've played any other JRPG
This is wrong though. I've played JRPGs all my life and XIII is good.
>>
>>153668313
It was legitimately a poorly made game. The characters were terrible, the dialogue was terrible, the pacing was terrible

>>153668198
>>153668325
I don't like the idea of auto pilot gameplay whatever that is, but I have played a few JRPGs before
>>
>>153668070
VI is comparable to... IX.

IX was made to be a throwback to old style N-Gen FF games, since the S-Gen (VII/VIII) changed direction to more flashy and sci-fi like settings.

If you didnt like IX you're tough luck for any other game pre-VII except maybe V for its Job System.

>>153668454
>The characters were terrible, the dialogue was terrible
Literally kill yourself. IX shits on X in both regards.
>>153668475
VI is the most normie FF after VII, VIII and X so there's a good chance he'll like it.

V is the best FF and this guy has shit taste so he likely won't enjoy it. I'd say V is more comparable to IX and VI is.
>>
>>153668454
It was rushed in the end, so the pacing and character development took a hit, but it is the highest rated Final Fantasy for a reason.
>>
>>153668454
XIII game play is liek this.

you choose a formation for your three characters (Attacker, defender, Magic, etc)

You initiate a battle, and your characters will automatically do the best action (weakness, ailments, etc already taken account for) suited for their role. All you do is watch and maybe change formation here and there if you're bored.

Combine with a Linear story. literally. The entire game except for a single section is a hallway. A single pathway with tiny branches that lead to loot, but nothing really extra or special.
>>
>>153668454
>It was legitimately a poorly made game. The characters were terrible, the dialogue was terrible, the pacing was terrible

But enough about VIII
>>
>>153668817
If you're going to describe XIII's combat in those terms, let's give the same treatment to every other game:

Final Fantasy [#]'s combat is this: put your cursor on memory, use your strongest attack and press X over and over again (or hold depending on the game). Maybe use a limit break if you're bored.
>>
>>
>>153668817
>>153669052
Why do they automatically "do the best action" in XIII though? that sounds awful?
>>
>>153669332
They don't. If you want to play optimally, you need to manually input commands too because the AI is dumb.
>>
>>153669052
at least you get to choose the attack and press X.

and explore.

In most FF games theres not really a go to strongest attack, besides Limit breaks, until like... much much later near end game point
>>
>>153669332
>>153669414

Optimally? The AI does the optimal. it uses the attacks the enemy is weak to. it heals those who need healing. it auto uses buffs immediately.

When playing manual you're just gonna be doing what the game would do, except you'll do it slower since AI doesnt use menus.

only thing you do is go into a pure offesnive formation when your AI Staggers the enemy by spamming its weakness attacks,

>The AI does the optimal
No it doesn't.
>it uses the attacks the enemy is weak to
Yeah, it'll use the right element but often it won't use the right abilities for the situation and it's really dumb about the targets it choses at times.
>it heals those who need healing
Except it often heals the wrong target or uses weaker aoe heals when you want to heal a specific character.
>it auto uses buffs immediately
But not in the order you want it to or on the right characters.

The AI also doesn't know how to keep enemies juggled from Launch, which is quite important against certain enemies. You don't want to drop an untransformed behemoth.
>only thing you do is go into a pure offesnive formation when your AI Staggers the enemy by spamming its weakness attacks
So you've played what? 3, maybe 4 hours of this game? Or perhaps you played on easy mode? That shit won't fly against any of the difficult fights past Barthandelus.

You don't understand XIII's combat at all.
>>
>>153670082
if thats how you wanna play it, you may CHOOSE to grind spells to max with Draw... or you can get into triple triad and master refining. or you can just Draw/refine what you feel you need with what you can get.

>>153670806
Oh please, as if any other FF game takes any more effort to beat. The only fights that have ever been challenging have been optional bosses. I absolutely agree that XIII is too easy, but that's not a problem exclusive to that game. It's also not a problem with the combat but with the balancing.
>>
Anyone else playing triple triad on their phone?
>>
>>153671450
I played until I got that Squall trophy card. Haven't had much time to play it lately.
>>
>>153671291
This desu desu.

It's not like they would make the game impossible for noobs to beat. That has nothing to do with the depth of its combat and understanding mechanics.
>>
>>153670591

Well you have to beat everybody in Triple Triad dude. That's just a given
>>
>>153671291
well true enough im sure ppl like you and I are so experienced and down with RPGs in general, let alone FF, that we just kinda click and master them easier and beat them without as much difficulty.

But FFXIII doesnt let you really do that. Its not easy cause i know RPGs and strategies and such. Its easy cause i didn't have to do anything. The game acts your role for you. Leveling up your role is a linear grid. The world is a linear path.

everything you want or need are given to you, simply. I didn't have to find the big magical spell, or the powerful summoning, or search for a powerful Ultra weapon. The items were right in my path. the spells are just natural progression, the summons are story.

like, the game was already played and im just finding sloppy seconds.

Kind of does. the basic concept of whats being said is; The entire game is on auto-pilot. From Combat, to Progression, to the World.

> "Combine with a Linear story. literally. The entire game except for a single section is a hallway. A single pathway with tiny branches that lead to loot, but nothing really extra or special."

referring to the fact everything you get is natural, with nothing branching except a single section of the game, late game. everything is straight forward for you to collect.

TFW Just realizes to obtain Doomtrain requires 6 Malboro Tentacles. 6 Steel Pipes, and 6 Remedy +.

666.

Holy Shit....

Except that wasn't the part I was arguing with so it's not really relevant.
>>
>>153673938
choosing to ignore it doesnt mean the problem doesnt exist.
>>
>>153674346
I wasn't arguing with that part because I didn't disagree with it. How is that so difficult to understand? I was talking specifically about combat all along.
>>
>>153673543
Well, Dagger is only like what 14 or 15? It makes sense. I just meant that FF really doesn't use the dainty, soft, regal, damsel in distress type for their main heroines often. They only ones who really fit that are Sarah, Garnet, and Luna.
>>
>>153674694
16, but yeah. Though I wouldn't call Luna soft; she's absolutely fearless in KG and actually manipulates a guy into killing himself.

Why is this allowed?
>>
>>153677106
It's okay, in BE Exdeath's signature move is a holy type black magic spell.

Mobileshit will keep on being mobileshit.
>>
>>153676387
ha-ya-i
>>
>>153677889
It should just be Summon type since Hope's association with Holy clearly comes from Alexander.
>>
>>153677889
Exdeath's TM is Holy and in 6 star he learns a white magic offensive move and can equip white materia. They planned this from the get go.

The mini-game was more entertaining than the actual game. It's funny that Oblivion years later would make the exact same level scaling mistake.

That wasn't me. He was making fun of me. I have no hope I'll ever see her outside XIV.

I'm still upset they didn't use the PSP versions for the Steam releases of all the classic games.

why are the chaos crew so shit senpai?
>>
>>153682123
I'm more upset we never got remakes of 5 and 6 with the same quality as FFIV Complete Collection.
>>
>>153680252
Who?
>>
>>153682927
I think that had a lot to do with the PSP flopping and publishers abandoning it.
>>
>>153683069
They could've done them for Vita.
>>
>>153683236
Yeah, but they probably scrapped plans for them at that stage and just later settled for the iOS ports.
>>
>>153682927
I thought VI got one with that steam release?
>>
>>153682330
Physical team is missing too many important skillsets and physical darkness is pretty shit. Mage team is strong but nobody wants to make and hone dark zone x4.
>>
>>153683545
Nope, it's the shitty mobile port.

Steam version is just a port of the phone version.

Compare this image to the PSP version of IV in >>153681579

>>153681638
>implying there's anything wrong with level scaling
Most RPGs just force you to wade through zillions of weak as shit enemies if you try to explore earlier areas later in the game. You can't get anything useful from them and it's a total waste of time.

It sold over 80 million.

It's so weird because the hires enemy sprites were amazing.

And then the ui, characters, and overworld looked like molten garbage. Literally the part that would've taken the least amount of work is where they went wrong.

Mod that fixes it when?

Eh, I wouldn't really say that. They're upscaled to hell and back, some look kinda weird. the mobile port of FFV has much better looking enemies.
>>
>>153684751
I'm probably remembering FFV more than anything now that I think about it.

I couldn't even finish nuFF6, so it all kind of blurs together.
>>
>>153684526
The UI looked like that because mobiles. Many people have small phones, so huge featureless buttons are pretty much obligatory in mobile games. Don't know what happened with the overworld, though.
>>
N-new?

Not this time friend
