    Two 7* Trance Terras are way better than only one with her STMR. Her STMR is kinda weird, if you burn mana like crazy with a unit like Dragonlord and have limited mana regen options, then maaaaaybe it'd be useful, but I dunno. Two big magic damage chainers would be the better option. As for...

    Gumi's oddball schedule reshuffling is so unpredictable. From reading the update schedule, it looks like Nyx and Awakened Rain were from 7* batch 5 in JP, we're getting them in batch 2 (almost feels like batch 1.5 since we're just plugging the gaps we missed from batch 1). Regarding weps for...

    It's showtime gents, video news posted up says Hyoh arrives Friday. Gumi is getting creative though, we get the 11k step up banner that JP had for Hyoh, but only 1 lap available. They are adding a second 25k step up and the 5th step you are guaranteed either Hyoh or Awakened Rain, three laps...

    I expect, I hope (for Gumi's sake) that we get another 7* batch this week so hopefully that will be an outlet for some of that. I'm the exact opposite, I'm grinding Cactaur Dunes to prepare for the next 7* wave, but that's all under the assumption that we get the units in this batch we were...

    Ill do the daily pull and that's about it. I still havent farmed up the TMRs for the 4*s from the last DQ event, but I guess I can add them to the queue. I was trying to decide whether to put up a Dragonlord as my lead for synergy or leave Pissy Shantotto up for another week. I think I read...

    I personally level a king minitaur to max then go on to the next one. Getting a unit to level 120 takes 10ish max level kings (per a reddit thread, I didnt do math) provided you dont get any greats/amazings. I dont think theres any reason to stop leveling a king before you hit level 60 with it...

    Same as leveling any unit, really. Just choose the King Minitaur as the unit you want to enhance and you can select as many cactaurs/minitaurs that you want to feed into it. Max level is 60 for a King Minitaur. Now, optimal fusing is done one cactaur/minitaur at a time to maximize the chances at...

    That's exactly what we needed to go with our half sized 7* batches, six weeks in between them. Gumi seems hell-bent on turning the playerbase against them, I really dont understand it.

    Plus don't forget that JP can use their UoC tickets to choose any 5* base currently in the game (cant choose limited or collab units though) whereas GL can only choose units that currently have been given 7* evos. Ill post this for posterity's sake, if Gumi puts a UoC ticket in a bundle bought...

    Yep, we also had two MK events that offered UoC tickets in JP (the FFBE CG event and the Squall/Rinoa event) but ours didnt because they didnt have the tickets implemented yet.

    I actually pulled a second CG Sakura from the 10+1 this morning. Pretty excited about that, I wanted to 7* her pretty bad. Finally grinded out that 150k UoC ticket, now I gotta start all the other crap that I want from KM. /sigh so much grinding, so little tmr farming.

    Nox and Memu are pc based emulators that can run the game (pretty much all of us here use one or the other). Check out: r/FFBraveExvius - Memu and Nox Macros for Explorations and TMR farming; 720p and 1280p There's not much difference between the two emulators, some seem to run better and...

    So no UoC ticket in the monthly log in rewards to make up for the one they removed from the MK event. Looks like unless they completely shock and surprise us by offering it some other way, Global is intended to get UoC tickets at half the rate of the JP version. That, along with severely...

    I dont think Im using my UoC on any of the current 7* units. As of right this second Im leaning toward a Trance Terra as one more will allow me to do two 7*s of her. I'd look ahead a little bit and into your unit box for something that is a knockout awesome unit at 7* and save the ticket for...

    The cron stones actually. Whip out the Visa, buy a few costumes, blow them up for cron stones and have consequence free PEN attempts. It's a sorta valid point, but it's like the equivalent of 200 bucks per PEN attempt and you still need to build the stack.

    Gotcha. Im planning to go all sorts of whale after a small herd of Hyoh's when his banner finally hits so Ill have to look up who his chaining partners are and can hopefully build around that.

    Im so behind on these trials, I've got to stop slacking. I haven't attempted one since the Trio was added. Also, what's the consensus on Tidus' STMR? I pulled a fourth today by accident. I know he as a 7* unit is pretty beefy, worth it to have two 7* or one with a STMR?

    Thanks. I'll probably finish leveling Wilhelm to 120 then and gear up for next week (I think?) for when the next 7* batch hits. I'm pretty happy with the 80% def materia though, too bad there's no hp on it.

    Work is kinda wild at the moment so I cant spend too much time digging for info (and I trust you guys more than the random info I find on the net), how does this Viktor fella measure up as a 7* tank? I did a round of the step up hoping for an Adam or three and ended up with four Viktors. He...

    If you do any afk stuff in game, starting those back up for the next few weeks is a good idea as well. The event running from yesterday until Sept 12th will give out hourly rewards for the first 5 hours you're online every day, one of those daily rewards is 2 event coins. You can turn in 10...

    Depends on your rig, it's pretty resource heavy. The Remaster will definitely not improve your performance, the question should be: how big of a performance hit you're willing to take for shinier armor. I took a 20fps hit switching to the Remaster, my machine isn't bleeding edge but ran the game...

    It's definitely pretty, but being pretty was never BDO's issue. Pearl Abyss could have tweaked/changed that inane enhancement system if they wanted to really impress people. That said, if you play, have played, or might play again, log in sometime in the next day or two for a free T7 horse and...

    Definitely sit tight and wait, we'll likely have the second batch of 7*s before the log in campaign gives us 10 UoC tickets anyway if my math is correct (it's probably not and I dont plan to fact check right now, it's lunch, math is prohibited) so we'll know pretty quick how the UoC thing will...

    I feel like Gumi is softening us up a bit, gonna give us a quiet week or two before driving the Hyoh stake into our wallets. I appreciate the recoup time to amass a little lapis and cactaurs (I went a little overboard with leveling Rinoa) before the H-bomb hits.

    I am completely ignorant about Zaw's (aside from the discussion about the dagger on the previous page). I got a riven yesterday for a Plague Keewar (riven is slash damage and range). Good/bad? Should I bother trying to make this thing to use with the riven or just try to sell it?

    This is what Im afraid of. Gumi yanked enough units out of the first batch of 7*s that Japan originally got to fill out another separate batch entirely for the global audience. Trying to predict anything at this point is probably going to be an exercise in futility, just ask Gabranth.

    Much appreciated. It's starting to feel like most all units in this first batch are just appetizers, a taste of what's to come but nothing that will last most folks for very long. Ill probably pop as many units as I can afford up to 7* for the moogles and hold off on any leveling, etc. The...

    Actually I have four Merc Ramza's (only two Wilhelms).

I havent really put much stock in...

    I do not lack options out of the first batch to go 7*, my problem is a lack of cactaurs and gil. I read it takes somewhere upwards of 44mil exp to get a unit to level 120 which is a staggering amount of cactaurs. I think Im gonna shoot for level 110 on anything I up to 7* because that's when...
