Board 8 > Final Fantasy Brave Exvius Topic #49: Coeurls, Bears and Whips, oh my!

(+) Yeah! (+)

Has anyone had any luck getting Leon from raid summons? I said his STMR would be something I'd use, but that'll be hard when I only have the guaranteed Leon.
---

Nope, havent gotten one yet.
---

Ive heard he has a drop rate similar to 4* tickets. Even though I finish in the top 5000 in raid ranking Ive only seen 1 since they started dropping. I know Im not even getting his 7*
---

My EX ticket pull today was Slime Knight. I wasn't even aware he'd be on the EX pull list.
---

I've gotten one Marquis de Leon so far, so the odds aren't too terrible maybe.

Wasn't he a reward from a quest? I have one as well, but pretty sure I got him from a quest reward for some reason. I'm pretty sure I would have remembered pulling him otherwise.
---

Yeah, he was the reward for clearing the pro difficulty of the raid.
---

...oh.
---

Didn't really notice until my current TMR grind, but seems like all CG units have good to great TMRs.

Got Sakura and Fina's, working on Nichol now.

Just gotta pick between Jack, Lid and Lasswell for the next ones.
---

Im about to finish another 100% Moogle, and I'm not sure what I'm going to do with it.

I know that I'll probably 7* Trance Terra and Gladiolus, two units whom I still don't have their base TMRs for, but I'm not sure if I'm really in a hurry to get either of those yet. I have Zodiac Shield from Basch, so Gladi's shield isn't super pressing, and TTs TMR is just kind of hot garbage until she hits 7*.

Other 7* ready units I know I am going to need to get TMRs for eventually include:
Queen
Ace
Ayaka
Balthier
Zargabaath
Blossom Sage Sakura

I could also stand to maybe get duplicate TMRs for someone like Fryevia who is 7* ready, and though I have one Needle, two would just make her better.

Probably going to hold this 100% Moogle for now and wait to see what happens. First time that I haven't felt the need to use it right away lol.

Jake's sucks unless you are planning to use him specifically. More or less.

Nah.....




---

those step ups arent really enticing enough to get me to pull for hyoh I dont think

also this weeks 10+1 was trash as expected
---

I like the extra step up they're giving for Hyoh here. I'm not doing the 25k due to not having close to enough lapis, but it's a pretty cool option.

Also fun to watch the always negative crowd on the FFBE board trying to find something to complain about with it. Glad I don't post there anymore, but it's still fun to watch. Got better places now!
---

Also Im surprised were getting 7* Ayaka already, wish I had a second one.

I do have Nyx, Ace, TT and Merc Ramza from this batch. Not sure if any of them are worth it.
---

Nyx is a sacrificial lamb for instant lb in some cases for the party.

TT is death incarnate for magic chaining.

Dark Fina/Delita, etc when you need to splice an imperil for TT.

M Ramza is unknown for now how much better he gets. Depends on how they handle the cooldowns.

Ace is at their mercy.
---

TT is apparently really, really, really good. The others are more blah. I know there's a little hype around Merc Ramza, but without more global upgrades he won't pass up Wilhelm.

Tried using Ramza as a provoke tank a few times, and even at 6* he wasn't any good. He kept covering my magic tank and causing a wipe. Never have that issue with Wilhelm before or after 7*.
---

Sounds like TT is the only one worth spending the resources on immediately, then.
---

I'll be 120ing TT and Ayaka right away. Going to STMR TT eventually, since she's so MP hungry.
---

Cool, Ayaka 7*. I, uh, might already have her STMR ready.
---

The only one I can outright 7* of that batch is Reberta. Depending on how she turns out, Ive got about 250% in moogles that I can use to get a few TMRs and have her up and running at near peak efficiency. Beyond that, Ill wait and see how Merc Ramza turns out, as I may use my UoC ticket to get either him or Tidus to 7*. Most likely him, as I dont have the gear to make Tidus worthwhile.

Edit: Oh yeah, I can do Nyx too. Pretty sure Im not going to waste the 3 mil on that.
---

Was deciding between Wilhelm, Awakened Rain, Trance Terra, and (if I get one of) Hyou for my UoC pull. Guess I'll be using that soon one way or the other.

It still might be better to wait and see what Fryevia's 7* looks like before deciding, but I don't think I have the patience for that.
---

I'm tempted to burn UOC for TT, but then I remembered I don't have a second fry yet.
---

Good, don't have to pull for Hyoh, now to debate using the UoC for Ayaka straight away.
---

I have an odd feeling that Nazta will give me a stern talking to.
---

hmm... 25k step for broken amazing magic tank or broken amazing TDH chainer....
---

Looks like Gumi is promising 2 more UoC tickets this month - one from the Hyoh event and one from the last event of the month.
---

I'm already hearing complaints about them replacing a 10% rainbow with a UoC stub, even though we know nothing about it yet.

No matter what they do, some people will never be happy!
---

UoC stub sounds a lot better to me than 90% blue ticket!
---

I agree completely. It's a 90% chance of garbage vs. 10% towards a unit of choice. Seems like a no brainer.
---

I'd rather have a tool towards the guarantee.

I want to accumulate like 50 UoC stubs, so much stuff I want.
---

fuck em.

I'd rather have a UOC stub than another 10% moogle sitting in my unit list.

All I know is I'm goin in on Hyoh as he SHOULD be this friday. Gonna hit taht 25k step and 11k step and use all my tix.
---

Hyoh is a Doublehand unit, right?

I wasted a 100% Moogle on a Buster Style some months back, and it might actually get some use if I get a decent Doublehander. I have a Marshall Glove too for that matter. I tried TDH Tidus with Brotherhood, but Dual Wield still ended up being better, so the Buster Style just sits in my Inventory unused. I might be able to get away with TDH Balthier, but I'm not even sure he's relevant.
---

Hyoh is a TDH-unit.
Tidus can't really benefit from TDH until Thursday.
---

yeah he's the start of the TDH with W-ability meta that will be the mainstay for... probably ever.
---

So.
DQ MK coins are lucrative, apparently. Sold what I had to get a couple mil, then 7-starred Dragonlord. Hopefully this means that I can fricassee the tentacled troop coming up soon.

Also set him up as friend if you want a 200% boost.
---

Got Marquois de Leon off 200k raid coins. Still need one more for the stmr. =_=
---

Oh
If I did not post
Rainbows I got recently:

4th Gilgamesh( should probably 7* him for his STMR I suppose)

Arenea. Finally my spears mean something
---

Man, his STMR is a little underwhelming.

Edit: Gilgamesh, I know I already complained about MdL, lol
---

But
That 45 atk
Plus status resist
---

Debating using my UoC stubs on a second Ayaka but I dunno. Her 7* seems good, but not really necessary at the moment?
---

Not really.

Biggest focus now are tanks and damage dealers since they up their games more. Depending on what you need, Busterstyle, Trance Terra 2#, etc if it's about long shelf life.
---

I'm really hoping Merc Ramza gets some solid GL upgrades that make him worthwhile. Having his cover abilities on a CD just hurts him so damn much that as temping as it is to use my UoC on him for his 7*, I know it probably isn't worth it. I don't have the TDH gear for Tidus, and nothing else in this batch that I could UoC are units I use at all.

At this point I'm praying Reberta gets timed jumps so I can at least get something out of this batch. Really kind of pissed that Rem got shafted again.
---

Timed jumps are not retroactive, and we are due, a month tops, for it. 7* addition we have to hope for her.

https://www.reddit.com/r/FFBraveExvius/comments/7m7heq/jp_niconico_live_23_1226/
---

That's mostly why I'm not going all-out by blowing my moogles on spear-based TMRs yet. But when one's 7* options are limited, and with how slowly they're releasing (apparently we're not getting anything other than A. Rain this week? Has Gumi learned nothing?), I also know I should grab what I can get.

7 star healers are pretty much at the bottom of the list.

Edit: So thats where all my rainbow luck went. I just spent my 200k raid coins and nabbed two Marquis de Leon. Looks like Im getting that STMR, baby!

I personally wouldnt use a UOC ticket on someone like Merc Ramza. If all you want is a tank that can cover both things then wait for a basch or go for awakened rain in the step up and pray you get lucky. His 7 star is broken to hell any way and we're getting it way way early compared to when JP got him and then use someone like WoL for physical cover or a 7 star wilhelm if you have access.
---

Update rolling out, so don't forget.
---

Hmm... Awakened Rain is a bit off for now.
They added one more extra cooldown turn on both cooldowns, and no stop proof with his tmr equipped.

5+1 is a gold plus randoms.
