FINAL FANTASY Record Keeper

6/44
- Leon body,
- Cyan second relic,
- garnet staff,
- Vanille rod,
- Tancred body,
- Aeris ribbon
Leon, Garnet and Vanille stuffs were great for me, Cyans katana i didnt like as i already have Kiku-Ichi, Tancred body is something i will never use till new ffxiv event/realms and i have mixed feelings for the ribbon. I wanted it but i was hoping to get this or organics in current banner. Now, i definitivelly wont pull for a single item.
So, come hope, my mythril is waiting for you!

I did the second gem pull.... got 10 3*, 1 4*, and not a single 5* in either batch. Ah well. I think I have double upgraded most 3* into 5* at this point. Checking, I have some that I must have gotten 7 times so far as I have 2 double upgraded and working on a third. At some point I will probably just start using 3* items as ingredients to upgrade weapons and armor like I currently do with all my 1* and 2* items.
There aren't any 1* or 2* items or armor worth keeping, are there? Another 11 roll....that came out with 3 4* and 8 3*. I then did another (full price) 11 roll. So this week, out of 55 of them, I got 2 5* ( Tifa's old gloves and Steiner's Defender sword).
*sigh*
Ah well, the random number generator will turn the other way at some point.
That is a lot of 3* and 4* that I have been able to upgrade to 5*. At some point should I not bother upgrading 3* anymore?
What do other people think?

When you start having your 7th copy of a 3* gear/weapon, thats a good sign to throw it. I have one copy of several combined 3* gear: 2 Lilith Rods 5* (FF4), 2 Mythril Saber, etc. Some gear (like swords or staves) I just need one, so any other copy is pointless. Others like rods, I need at least 2 as hardly I resort to mage party with a single mage, normally 2 or 3 mages so I would expect to have at least 3 copies of a rod.

I got the Vanille Staff, is she going to show up in the Hope event? Sadly don't even have her, is she good? The free 5* FF7 sword is actually a big deal for me because I haven't got a physical damage 5* in years.

***...Lightning and Sazh show up but no MCs. Lightning is still my favorite character and one of my only physical weapons is Blazefire but having her at 50 is so shitty. Looking at that website it doesn't even look like that MC will be possible to get until the blank MC thing. I'm so *** with MCs right now.

I like Vanille because of her Deprotega thats long lasting armor breakdown. It doesnt stacks with breakdowns but probably it does with full break.

*** ya'll. FFX-2 was great.
Best battle system we'd had in a FF game for a long time at that point. Hurray for the job class revival

I was kind of worried the staff was useless because it not stacking with breakdown honestly. It looks to be better than Armor Breakdown by 10% but I can't find how long it lasts. I guess it'll just depend how good Vanille is on her own probably. I won't have Full Breaker for a long time sadly.

I enjoyed X-2's battle system until around end game... At that point it was you either spam attack on Berserker or just in general, else you get killed so fast.

I got a terrible last Lucky pulls chocked with 3s and a few 4s to combine. Overall haul wasn't bad, considering I'm 100% F2P.
-Heroic Scarf, making Mog useful and has stacking effects with Breakdowns which I didn't know about.
-Snow's Coat - meh.
-Golden Armor - pretty good, though Leon's stuck @50, Hand of the Emperor is a powerful SB and stacks nicely.
-Buster Sword - a much needed decent SB for Cloud.
-Guard Stick - decent rod, decent SB.
-Sentinel's Grim - Tyro's back in action!

As far as the 4x lucky pulls I did I got:
- Hypnocrown x2
- Healer's Robe that gave me a 6* for Y'shtola the waifu
- Blood Lance (I'll never use)
- Binding Rod, at the least a 13 synergy staff.
Feels sucky that 2 of my 5 items were ones I already had but 6*s are fun I guess. I sure wish I could get something for physical DPS though.

Binding Rod isnt a staff, its a rod, and rods main role are having high magic stats so its the primary weapon for nukes. In FFRK rods will never be useless, you can always give it to most mages.

Did the 100 gem pull for hope event and got the Skycutter. Hope-fully (...) useful

I think so, considering FFXIII has the most flying bosses that arent in melee range.
As a retaliate-addicted, ive been using Tyro + retaliate + any random ranged i have, but that throw or Sazh gun would fit nicely my setup in this troublesome realm.

That hat is so cool, they basically just gave away the best support relic I've ever got! Power leveling up Hope/Vanille in hope (hah) that I can do some of the + battles this round. I have Vanille/Lightning with their SB2 weapons, Hope really well geared, Sazh....not well geared. We'll see.
I have a random question, is Josef's double hit RM any good? I don't have very many melee RMs that I can even use so I might grab it.

Apparently it doesn't stack with Trance Flood or Mana's Paeon, that makes me sad but it's still an awesome hat.
my complaint: I was barely at 99 inventory before and with those 2 new items I have none. Don't want to get adamantite/scarlatite with the event going on to combine all this ***.

Double hit is a free doublecut (2x 0.7 multiplier). Its true potentials is when used with retaliate strat: you can equip it with mages that normally dont have combat abilities. Without retaliate, its kinda meh as you can easily get 1.4+ multiplier with several abilities.

Yeah I don't use Retaliate but does Double Hit work with better than Double Cut abilities like Breakdowns?
Do you have any suggestions for good melee RMs that arent too hard to get? I know Luneth has the best one but it comes from a 106 dungeon (the MC) and I'm not sure I can get it.

My first memory crystal thing! (for cloud :/)
Started playing a few days ago under the suggestion from a linkshell mate. The game is definitely nostalgic, & I am having a blast. It's for iOS, and Android smartphones and tablets. Currently trying to complete these timed events.
Any one else loving the global release of this game? It's been out in Japan for some time. We finally get in on the goodies
