Final Fantasy: Brave Exvius

[wander]

Katy Perry absolutely fucking not, why would they do that?

I don't see how ariana grande has more jrpg cred, she seems just as much of a pop pleb to me.

KP will probably be a shit unit anyway and I've yet to see an Ariana pop up

 

[Sprites]

Ariana was limited I got her although I didn't go out of my way to pull the first version of her, there was 2 events released for her and they released a FF version of her song 'touch it' which is actually very good. Apparently shes a fan of the FF series too and that was alright I thought as long as they don't make a habit of this sort of thing, that's OK.

KP is gonna be a 5-7* unit and I couldnt give a fuck if she ends up being the most amazing unit I will absolutely not be pulling for her.

God I play RPGs to get away from reality, having them insert Katy Perry when they already did this once with Ariana into an FF game really boils my piss, they could announce Foo Fighters and I'd still be pissed off about, get out of my fucking RPG Series, this really better not be a trend because if they a year down the line announce a Justin Bieber collab I will riot.

 

[wander]

I completely agree, it's outrageous. This sort of thing really shouldn't happen.

*resumes grinding*

 

[Sprites]

Lol don't get me wrong I'm still playing as we speak it's not put me off playing but I really don't want this to become a thing from now on I just think its ruining the magic of a game series that has nothing to do with the real world.

It's like...Spirits Wthin would have worked as a movie in its own, but the moment you affiliated that movie with Final Fantasy then it became absolute garbage and something that made me say keep that shit away from my FF series.

Well we won another 3000 lapis (that brings the total to 10k) and 10 UOC tickets for global exclusive characters (whether that just means the global fan fest units or any of the global exclusive units isn't quite clear) but either way another free decent 5* unit.

 

[wander]

I know, I was just messing. It goes both ways too, seeing Lightning in those Louis Vuitton vids made me feel nauseous.

OMG hahahahaha look at the state of this shit:

 

[Sprites]

No I know.

Yep putting Lightning in the Louis Vuitton campaign was horrendous.

 

[wander]

Wow.

Fan Festa Select units:

I like Malphasie's design, wouldn't mind having her. Olive and Barbariccia are both pretty powerful, and Fryevia has a big reputation though I've yet to use her. Obviously I'd like Ellesperis/Beryl/Reberta so I could 7★ them. Hyped!

 

[Sprites]

I'm tempted to use mine for Chow in prep for 7* but then if I get one more Fryevia I get her STMR so I don't know

Olive I wouldn't use the ticket on she's a finisher only and she's dropped off the list if high powered 7*.

Barb though is amazing.

 

[Sprites]

Why the fuck are they distributing these rewards as login over like 2 months if you miss a day you don't get the reward I think that's such a cop out I spent 300 laps out of the 1000 lapis I had left refreshing for the cactuar raid to get all the prizes and to help pull the level up to 99.

The rewards are great but honestly dripping feeding them the way they are doing is an awful idea.

 

[Lestat]

Because it saved them thinking of some new way to keep the playerbase interested in their lackluster events such as Katy perry

 

[wander]

I don't find it surprising to use rewards as a means to enforce player retention.

Meanwhile in Fire Emblem Heroes, no rewards, just an obligation to max out a P2P hero. Trust me, Gumi is still generous.

 

[Sprites]

They're definitely being generous I agree but logging in every day shouldn't be an obligation to get the rewards we earned them as a playerbase and logging every day shouldn't be a necessity to claim the rewards, still happy were getting them though.

 

[wander]

Ya, it sucks, still best in class for gacha (GBF has a good story, so I hear... but who cares? Terra's not in GBF)

 

[Sprites]

Kinda glad they're releasing the trust moogles as 50% ones, I tend to merge my 5% and 1% ones together to make it up to 10% I find it more manageable for wanting certain tmrs if there's 50% instead of 100%4

 

[wander]

Yeah I'm 49% on Masamune and approaching that on Lightning, Ellesperis, Rikku etc. It would feel like a waste to dump a 100% moogle on any of them.

 

[Sprites]

It would absolutely be a waste 100% tmrs are fab for a unit where you know you instantly need it or want to keep it for a specific unit case in point when they released a 100% trust moodle after season 1 ended I kept it until Reagan's step up banner as I knew I wanted to pull for him, it came along I pulled two of him and instantly 100% tmrd him because I knew his was worth it but in most cases I prefer keeping my my moogles at 10% except for the 50% ones we get for the merging a dupe 5* with their 7* counterpart 1st time around.

Right now though I'm not 100% sure what I want to get TMR wise I just got Sieg's and I have 78% of TM left part of me is thinking TMRs for NY tanks I've plenty of tmrs for stat increases for MAG, ATK and SPR but I lack more HP/DEF increasing ones so I might need to look at some of my unit tmrs and see what's worth choosing next.

 

[wander]

Cool that the rewards are already coming in. I think, rather than 7 starring Beryl or Ellesperis, I'm going to see if I can snag a Barbariccia from the banner as I'd rather have her at 7*.

 

[Lestat]

If you haven't already done so I'd reccoment checking out the ffbe Reddit page also. Lots of folk adding units to help one man army some of the 3* espers.

 

[wander]

I already have ample assistance in that department, courtesy of SA, my other haunt for the last decade or so.

 

[wander]

@V have you chosen who you're taking from the Fan Festa GL units?

 

[Lestat]

Not yet, I've got a few already so weighing up who to choose XD

 

[Lestat]

This is my roster atm so getting another barb might be worthwhile but Ive never used her so I dunno.....

Spoiler

Finally got a sephiroth from my 10+1 so hurrah for that lol.

 

[wander]

Wow, nice units you have there! Awakening Barb up to 7* doesn't seem like a bad plan since you have a spare lying around. Though obviously you'd want to conserve gil in case something better/more to your taste comes along.

Meh it's fine it doesn't take too long to get the 3mil requires these days anyway. Ended up selecting barb just so I could put her in for her 50% stmr and get the 50% moogle back.

On a side note if you do the Katy Perry event and put her to 7* it doesn't cost the full 3mil and if you infuse another one you get the 50% moogle again

 

[wander]

Yeah I was tipped off about the discount moogle on a Discord earlier today. Didn't expect her to be useful, even if it is in death.
