Final Fantasy: Brave Exvius

[Sprites]

omg I am so jealous!, I have been using every ticket we're getting in this raid and I still can't get him, a few of my friend units have him set as well as yourself and I'm using him every now and again.

Congrats though, he's such an amazing unit to have and while I have many DPS units, Tanks, debuffers and healers, I lack a really good buffer(I do have Lunera but I don't like her being locked into turns), it's the one thing I'm really missing.

Oh wow this 2nd anniversary!!

So much free stuff they have been super generous, I'm very excited for this!!!!

My hope is after the anniversary things don't go downhill again, after the 1st anniversary ended the game went on a a little bit of a downward spiral in terms of quality and gameplay value so I really hope they maintain that this time

One thing just to draw to attention on the step up banners on there is there will definitely be more 5* units in the pool than just the 3 shown for each type banner.on the guaranteed last step, I'm still doing it, it's giving me more chances to pull Nichol and I really REALLY want him.

 

[Sprites]

Yeah it's pretty good, I keep hearing rumours about a Mog King event with the season 2 version of the characters in it coming up so part of me wonders do I go for the step up banners on the hope of getting Nichol amongst 20ish other 5* healer/support units with no rate up for him, or do I see if I can get him then if they release another banner. Too many decisions especially with getting lots of incoming laps

 

[Sprites]

My 5* ex ticket gave me Yuna really happy with this, I really wanted her during the ffx mk event and wasn't able to get her despite getting 5 off banner rainbow during her banner so I'm super happy to have her.

I love the homepage for the second anniversary it's so cute and colourful!

I'm still playing irregularly . Got Bahamut finally. Might concentrate on the new 3* espers. Got two, four (?) more to go (as of this maintenance). Got the new Nichol. Would love some other 5* units, but keeping getting Dark Fina of late :p. Hope she has a 7* form :p.

 

[Sprites]

Goddammit why is everybody but me getting Nichol!
She does have a 7* form so you're in luck

I think I need to concentrate on the 3* espers too.

What did your premium summon ticket give you, mine did give me anything exciting but it did help with TMRs

 

[Ghost X]

I don't remember what any of the fancy tickets got me, but nothing significant.

 

[Sprites]

The joys of RNG well at least you can get Lulu's super TMR but congrats to you both on the 5*s I've had some really rotten luck lately on banners.

 

[Sprites]

This heroes banner seems rather expensive I don't think I'll be pulling on it as much again as I want Nichol I'm not willing to spend 25K lapis on the banners to possibly get him.

I'm setting my unit to LM Fina for tomorrow, she's 1017 SPR so her sacred burst when chaining does some outstanding damage plus she's got massive healing power. I've two of her and HT Lid so that should net me some nice bonus stuff in the MK event.

I'm have to be honest I've barely done any raids in the last week I think I got bored of them, and want the MK event.

 

[Ghost X]

I figure the Japanese version hasn't finished releasing 7* characters yet. Any clue where I can find a list that might tell me which characters won't be getting 7* upgrades? I have so many doubles (triples, quadruples, quintuples ), that I'm wanted to empty up some space is all.

 

[Sprites]

The ffbe reddit wiki has a really good list. There was a new vid released today I haven't seen it but there's going to be 27 7* awakenings but also it'll definitely only be 5* base units that get it.

Also no word on if we're gonna get unit of choice tickets like JP Version got, basically you collect 10 of them you pick whichever unit you want. It was originally released with the current event we have going but we've had no news about whether we're gonna get it or not.

 

[Sprites]

Star ocean raid! Also I am so excited to do this raid with the reload button making life 10 times easier.

The game still seems to be suffering a lot of bugs lately, I'm annoyed I still can't complete daily quests right now.

 

[Ghost X]

Yeeeup, re: bugs. I'm finding the game a lot slower since the last update. Black screen drags on waaay too long.

Seems a lot of bosses also require the bushido freedom / dispelga trick now, and for the life of me, I can't seem to do it. Not that I've practiced it that much. It just seems ridiculous that there isn't a move that is more basic, rather than doing something that clearly wasn't intended when the moves were first released or whatever. I really want that water resistance thing from the Latius Woods event because I'm certain it'll come in handy for at least the Leviathan 3* summon, if anything else.

Other things that annoy me, super bosses that take hours to defeat, and having to memorise a shit ton of things to defeat them. I liked the complexity of Gilgamesh and the Shiva 3* battle. Anything beyond that, meh.

 

[Sprites]

I agree although I must admit the new item world thing that just launched today is very refreshing and fun enhancing your weapons.

I have no idea myself how to do that Bushido freedom trick thing either.

In terms of the superbosses. Half of them I haven't even attempted because despite having really good teams and set ups I still get wiped out half the time.

I still haven't got Nichol yet, I'm so sad about that I really want him for my team

 

[Sprites]

What do you mean not a dual wielder as standard?

Yeah he's more of a support/secondary dps unit but he's a very good chainer I've borrowed a few friend versions of him from time to time to see what he's like, he's pretty cool!!

 

[Sprites]

Wait hang on where are you getting that from that he doesn't dual wield without the skill equipped?? Reagan's already got Dual Wield as an innate passive trait from the get go.

 

[Sprites]

What sword are you trying to equip on him

 

[Sprites]

Soooo...News seems to have gone back to Tuesdays again, the Star Ocean banner looks really cool though and I'm trying to work out how many tickets I'm going to be getting from the lapis I've spent on summons but I can't be certain, I know I'll be getting at least 10 of the 3* tickets and 1 of the 4* tickets at least.

I just finished the story so far

Spoiler

Well I kinda assumed with the new Rain version in the banner he was going to make some sort of appearance again and I thought it was too cliched that he would be Hyou but the way he came back was really cool! Also I thought Yuraisha's death was kinda sad I would have loved to see more of her and I can't believe how everything is tying in together with Raegen and Rowen's pasts and Lasswell's heritage

I really like the story, a few translation errors still yes but it's actually a good story, kinda reminiscent of some of the older FFs and JRPGs. One thing I really like is how this game has come into it's own with it's stories and events, granted there's been quite a lot of issues with the game in terms of bugs (can't craft any of the adventure abilities without my game crashing) and a lack of communication from the developers, but the story itself and the events they release that delve further into character backstories are really great and really interesting. My favourite so far was definitely Ruggles', Bran and Lunera's story, that really got me in the feels!

 

[Sprites]

Well shit, so I did the final step of the step up banner, I had 5k lapis to spare and I figured why not its coming to an end. 2 Reagan's! was not expecting that at all!

 

[Ghost X]

I've read he's the best TDW chainer, but that TDH chainers are the best now in the Japanese version. Issue being, I have no clue what those initials mean . You are tempting me to use up all my lapis with that step-up thing to get him

 

[Sprites]

I used it because I'd gathered loads from completing the story and the anniversary rewards, I've read comments from people who've got nothing out of it so it's totally your choice the last step has a 5X increased chance in getting him though and I thought I may as well finish the step up wasn't expecting 2 of him though but yay for 7* Raegan when he arrives, wish I'd had the same luck with Nichol though. Because I have Chow as a Magic Tank I didn't need to do the Rain banner either so I decided to do the step up banner instead.

OK TDW I think stands for True Dual Wield as far as I know it's a fairly new thing and I think is to do with certain weapons or skills that get increases in atk if you have Dual wield equipped so Raegan being a natural Dual wielder probably would be the top one.

TDH I know stands for True Double Hand and I know a littl bit more about it. Basically Cloud's Buster style or Elfreeda's Marshal Glove are examples of things you need to get this going and Cloud is an example of a TDH unit (I can get mine to over 1300atk currently with the right set up so he's an amazing finisher in certain situations) it's different from normal double hand as the attack increases if you have either a weapon thats single or 2-handed like The revolving Saw weapon as opposed to doublehand that only works on single wielding weapons. Apparently Hyou and Jecht when he gets released are must have units for this.

Honestly now though apart from not having Nichol I think I'm set for units now so I'm gonna start saving my Lapis for a while now that I've done the step up banner.

 

[Sprites]

So erm...returning tickets for the amount of Lapis you've spent in the game came hrough. If ever there was a way to make me realise how much money I was putting into this game during my first year and a bit in this game (I stopped spending on this game about 9 months ago except for the fountain of Laps bundle when it rolled round) well that's made me all the more glad I don't do it anymore.

 

[Ghost X]

Where can I use these tickets? My normal ticket numbers haven't gone up, so I assume there is a special place to use 'these new ones? I've looked everywhere.

 

[Sprites]

The banner goes up in the next few hours it's a special banner you can't hoard the tickets either you have to use them all by october AFAIk and it includes units right up until 26/7 there's no rate up so it's a bit of a free for all in really hoping I can get a Nichol at least from mine

 

[Sprites]

Yes you can multi summon up to 50 at a time thank goodness I thought I was going to have to spend about 2 hours summoning today. I'll be doing my pulls when I get back from the vets today.

Also yes that's correct about the weapons, always equip the highest attack weapon in the r.hand the damage output is always better.

Ergo did you sort out your Reagan Dual Wield problem?
