    Yeah chrono field + chrono wave is ridiculous. With a Karax partner using wave on CD I was able to just a-move through terran ground and instantly replace any losses I took, and a-moving through terran ground is terrible as nova because marines absorb all your ghost fire. Granted if I actually...

    Just do what I do for quests like that when you can't complete them through normal gameplay. Toss a bunch of cheapass minions of the correct type in a warlock deck, queue up in casual, dump your hand for 5-6 turns and concede. I did it with demons yesterday.

    Halloween Event Spreadsheet.xlsx adv castle is 42 per energy, int rider is 37 per energy. ADV Colosseum finished this morning, although obviously I still need to repeat ranks 3, 4, and 5 until I get the mats I need. My routine for anything that isn't poison immune is my Turtle Blaster strategy...

    After the ridiculous mats I've been spending on awakens lately, the fact that BC Lid only requires 8/3 Sacred/Holy and no pro mats is just like wuuuuut. and yeah I'd never waste lapis like that, especially with FF3 right around the corner. The current plan is to draw however many it takes to...

    [Manga] Naruto (warning: spoilers up to current chapter)

    That episode was painful to watch. Not that there was anything specifically wrong with it, but after almost non-stop action since Kaguya appeared, it was like hitting a brick wall.

    I'm actually tempted to keep doing my welfare pulls just for the ~70% chance of an offbanner unit, since Lid's TM isn't bad. If I were to do an 11 pull this week though, it would probably be on the default rare banner instead of this one. Which, of course, I would never do because there are so...

    Also a chirijiraden barrage (Butts, Chizuru, Delita) is great for building up the element chain on the boss. My boss team is Terra, Rain, Vivi, Exdeath, and Butts.

    6* lightning can solo every wave with heat blitz, just bring turbo ethers to keep her charged up. Also, Rosa is really handy lol, I swapped out Lenna. That's for the wave stuff if you can't easily kill the boss. And as always, Imperil is never resisted.

    Wait, pro? Not elite? Do you not have any 6* Lightnings on your friends list? A full party of 5*s along with a decent geared lightning should be able to handle pro with no problem. Petrify cure = gold needle, Silence cure = echo herbs, Sleep cure = smelling salts. Sinzar you just lost all your...

    a hero should use their LB about 2700 times in the ~10000 earth shrine exit runs it takes to run a TM from 0 to 100%, which will get a 3* LB to 7. If you've already awoken both your Cecils past 3*, it's too late to farm their LB because the leveling cost rises dramatically with each * the hero...

    They need to give him his 5* Awakening and for his 5* LB he hops off the screen, then jumps back on and slams the phantom train down on the enemy. And yeah I'd like a second Cecil so I could just rush one to 6* then go the full retard route of maxing the other one's LB after every awaken, but I...

    So I borrowed some money to get the adamantite chest, since I'll be getting paid at the beginning of next week. Except I only borrowed 50 bucks, the adamantite chest is like 52 with sales tax, and I had just enough left in my account to buy Nova for SC2 a couple days ago, so I'm short that 2...

    You cannot raise his LB above 10 at 3*, and nobody advocates stopping to grind it up at 4* and 5*.

    Boy if the event exclusive materia was actually party wide (it does say aura) that would definitely change things a bit. Sadly it's almost a standard materia since the text just says +13%x/+13%x

    StarCraft 2

    Nova is interesting (only lvl 10 so far). Infantry seems vastly superior to mech considering how amazing ghosts are and how much unimpressive siege tanks are. Nova herself is SUPER fragile, but assault mode devastates early waves, and then stealth mode is good for picking off priority units as...

    Those units are impressively terrible. Hopefully the drastic dropoff in pulls for 2 weeks straight is a suitable slap in the face for them releasing such trash. *edit* What are the odds of the halloween units being buffed later?

    Biggest video game disappointment?

    Yeah the fifth column bullshit was bad enough, but their balance philosophy was retarded and ultimately killed the game in its infancy. Every single patch basically amounted to 'here are some nerfs for the most popular powers'. I don't think there was a single buff to anything for the first year...

    yeah i was doing p = 1 also. thanks! *edit* So if I have this right, between the 19 possible summons tomorrow (welfare pull, 11 pull from adamantite chest, 7 tickets from adamantite chest if no Cecil in the 11 pull) and the 7 I've already done (6 welfare + 1 ticket) there's still a 4.5% chance...

    Ok I cannot get the math right. How do I calculate summon probability? For example, if I do 11 pulls with a 12% chance for the unit I want, what are the odds that I will get at least 1?

    Pretty much the final nail in the coffin for me, Niantic is incredibly incompetent. STILL haven't implemented a working tracking feature this long after release, no word about anything to keep the game from completely dying off during winter, nothing to address the fucking absurd population...

    Biggest video game surprise?

    Off the top of my head X-Men Legends was well before Arkham Asylum, as was the old Avengers side-scrolling beat-em-up arcade game. There had definitely never been a good Batman game though. *edit* Surprises for me? Shadowrun: Dragonfall. I love me some Shadowrun, but Returns left quite a bit...

    Yeah Gaffgarion is just as bad as Agrias. I was going to awaken one of mine to 5* just for the lulz, but I'm damn sure not spending 15 sacred crystals for lulz.

    BTW, it took me 520 energy to awaken Rosa. Why the fuck she requires 13 of the new 5* mats when Kain and Rydia only took 5 a piece, I'll never know.

    frysrs.jpg Co-op has been in the game for almost a year, since December. Anyway, after getting a better look at Nova's abilities and upgrades, I'd be impressed if they actually balanced her well. I'm guessing she'll either be awful or crazy OP.

    Final Fantasy: Brave Exvius

    Well you can't raise it past 10 at 3*, the LB cap is 10/15/20/25. So it doesnt take that long to finish maxing the LB once you've gotten excalibur. Granted that would only be 60% instead of 50% at 6*, but since Cecil has high tide, a good TM, and a LB that isn't just damage, it seems worth it in...

    6* Cecil gets high tide doesn't he? Also seems like it could be extremely good if they ever introduce boss fights that are more about endurance rather than bursting them down in a couple turns. Also, it's not like Cecil has a bad TM or anything.

    I'm impressed, they rolled out Nova pretty quick, and didn't nerf Alarak. They did nerf Artanis, but it seems like he'll roll with it just fine.
