JUDE'S PROFILE

author=Sated
Rebezion, how are you determining the name of the enemy that shows up in the bottom right? It seems to switch to "training dummy" quite a few times near the end of that animation, even though the hero doesn't seem to be near to/hitting a training dummy.

I'm pretty sure that bird sub-weapon is hitting it off-screen. You see it flying towards the dummy, at least.

Once again I've underestimated how much mythril is in this game. I am already at 47. Should I indulge on a third FF9 pull? I am thinking I should just cut my losses there. I'll just get an FF7 item anyway, right?

I'm looking over these Rift of Recollection banners and each one has items I'd want, so it's hard to identify which I'd want most. The FF4 one has the wrong items on it... While I'd love to have Cecil's sword, he's not a character I'm looking at for damage. I'd also rather get a rod than Golbez's axe since rods would be useful on other characters. Also I'd rather get a shot at Celes's Runic limit break than her wind slashy one. FF7 has good items but I'm so synergy heavy in that. The Rinoa one looks great overall, but I risk getting a third Vega-42s--which I suppose isn't that bad. I think maybe the FF10 one is the most tuned into what I need, in spite of having a duplicate Lullaby Rod. Unlike guns, I'm still pretty weak on mage weapons and Lullaby Rod is super effective for White Mage/Summoners or Sages since it has high Mind and Magic alike. Plus, I'd also get a shot at a Sentinel's Guard tome. Speaking of which, how the hell is your Tyro still Lv50 Craze? If I had SG I'd bring it to so many boss fights. I don't know. If my mythril situation is good enough, I might pull on both the Rinoa and FF10 ones.

I finally got off my ass and got Concentration 2, the white magic recharging materia. Also got my stamina up to 142. I imagine I'll have fully cleared the dungeons by the end of the month unless the event rate suddenly intensifies.

Also, the only remaining quest is to craft Flare Strike, which I am three Major Power Orbs shy off. In hindsight I should've spent those major orbs elsewhere, but now that I am so close to finishing the quests I feel like I have to wrap it up. I never even use Holy or Flare, though I have experimented with Advance-powered Barrage which is pretty nice. As a result I still don't have Meteor and my Full Break is stuck at rank 1.

Keep the Nodachi. It's a natural 4-star of a rare item type. This is why you end up having terrible synergy in so many realms, Craze. Use it on Vaan or something so you can have a Steal Power user against Yojimbo.

Synergy so bad that even Scarlet Hair is giving me some sass. I don't really like the FF9 cast so I don't pull much on their banners. =|

I might just do a desperate fight for Steal Power and ignore the rest.

I used a mage heavy party for that one because I found him rather annoying in the elite story dungeon where he hopped to the back row on his first turn and never returned. That isn't what happened for the event, though. I don't remember the exact setup but Zidane was my only melee and used Draw Fire. Everybody else was a mage and Eiko had Mana Song.

You could try a retaliate strategy with a ranged weapon too.
