I know the conventional thinking is to get Luneth's MC3 first for his experience RM but my first 3 went to Cloud (OSB), Cecil (BSB), and Terra (BSB). We should be getting the second wave of them soon which is the waifu series: Sarah, Maria, Refia, Rosa, Lenna, Celes, Aerith, Rinoa, Garnet, Yuna, Ashe, Vanille, Yda, and Agrias. Right now I'd probably get Lenna's since I have her Curaga SSB but I'm planning to go fairly hard for Yuna's SSB which is far superior next week. If I'm lucky enough to pull it than Yuna will get the next MC3. I'll pick up Ramza's too in the near future since he's still the best Support.

I'm really hoping we get Gold Fest soon. I'm expecting it in the next couple of eeeks to help break the monotony between Banner Fests. There's a ton of Mythril in it, Orbs and an extra MC3.

A few months back, there was a special event where they had a ton of great accessories for sale in the gyshal shop. At the time, I was still new'ish so I didn't have many greens to buy much, which means I missed out on some great things like Gigas Armlet, Cloak of Flames, etc.

Did that special event ever repeat in Japan, or did I miss out on those accessories permanently? It's frustrating how every other event a guide recommends to use Gigas Armlet, but I don't have one.

I don't think they came back, but I though most of those weren't exclusives that they were from previous events.

I somehow have 3 flame cloaks (original FF4 event rubicante, big bridge event rubicante, gyshal shop) so they may show up again.

I used it maybe twice ever?

Resist accessories are kind of useful now that we are blasting through the physical attack soft cap--ATK and DEF accessories provide only marginal value--but yeah they're only useful once in a blue moon. I probably have 7 or 8 blind resist accessories by now that I can't be bothered to sort through, because they were recommended buys in the chocobo shop yet I can't remember when the last time I equipped a single one.

Oh 6* accessories are coming too so those 5* you are missing may get power creeped away.

That's good news at least. My main thing I miss is fire resist accessories. I still haven't beaten mote ifrit, and since he's opening up again tonight (along with the new mote stuff) I was wanting to give him another whirl. Sure would be nice to equip the entire team in fire resist so I don't get steamrolled in a few turns like every time I've tried him. I think I have 3 fire resist items now at least, which maybe is enough, we'll see tonight.

They keep making more resist gear, I must have 10+ for fire. Youll get there.

I got every accessory ever released other than the FF8 ice ring for beating Edea the first time, which I would have sold by now anyway since it was only a small bonus.

95% of the time I use +30 attack/magic/mind. If a boss has really stupid aoe I'll use +res/def/resist/hp but recently dps has been more important. Ifrit is still a special case requiring fire res.

Well, I mastered the Red Soul fight without too much trouble using a normal team, but holy hell was it tedious. The soul itself died pretty fast, then it was an extra 10 minutes of miss miss miss miss miss miss miss against the ogres. I never played FF2, and now I'm kind of glad if the whole game was cancerous like this blink foolishness all the bosses have.

Should be interesting to watch some videos of people doing the CM, because if I didn't have Vanille's ether SB to refill like 6 or so ability uses, I wouldn't have had enough hones.

Edit: Beat and mastered Mote Ifrit too! That brings me to 100% mastery on all current content and optional fights (except for a few CM's).

Red Soul was very easy with Mage Meta for me. Rikku was on sleep and Multi-Break duty and then I just AOEd them down. I haven't tried the CM yet. I'm going to sleep on it and I'll give it a try tomorrow.

On the debuff banner I pulled Rikku's fist, Gordon's shield and Vaan's SSB katana. Not a bad Lucky Draw for me.

Debuff banner was a trap, but who cares it's a lucky draw I said. Grabbed Gordon's shield (AOE ATK/MAG break), a second VII Megaphone (hurray 6* instrument - 10 extra mind for my RW Shout Ramza), and and Mog's Scarf. Old, outdated relics that I may never use the SB's for and weak stat sticks - just what I expected.

Yeah all I pulled was Setzer's first cards. In a post-G5 world I'm starting to wonder if Lucky Draws are worth it, since there is so much dated stuff in the pool.

Woo double Vaan SSB... well I think FF12 is the next event so that's fine and the Katana itself is one of my best realm neutral weapons now.

Finally bothered to RNG Kaiser Dragon to mastery, Sentinel Grimore, Stoneaja and Chain Firaga/Blizzaga really helped. Was able to defend for a 4th weakness.

Now I just need to CM the FF2 Mote Dungeon. I saw a cheese on reddit where you just use Maria BSB RW, I'll try this first later:
Mote Dungeon: Kashuan Keep – No Trinity, No Unique Soul Breaks, Tier Challenge CM • /r/FFRecordKeeper

Didn't grab anything special, but got some nice realm synergy in realms I was lacking. Got two swords and a spear for ff9, fft, and ff13 and I only had one natural 5* relic weapon in each of those realms.

I'm gonna skip the debuff draw. Already have some of the better relics (vaan bsb, agrias shield), my last lucky draw was terrible (gave me 2 super outdated relics), and I'm still trying to save for a few specific future banners.

We're finally looping around again on realms for events. Next up is 12, 10, 13, and 4. I have a team already leveled from last time for each realm, and each realm I already have very strong synergy, so I can safely skip the banners and continue saving. Then it's FF3, where I can start doing pulls again.

The II mote dungeon CM is no joke. I'm trying the Maria RW strategy and it's still rough. If I could get the ogres locked down I think it's doable but sleep just doesn't want to land.

Got it. I had to craft a second Sleep spell and used Auto-Haste RMs for Leon and Firion so they could dpam sleep faster. I tried using Sleep Buster before but it's too finicky being physical damage with the chance to sleep. So I couldn't use it on an ogre already asleep without waking it and their Blink made it miss too much. Minwu with his instant group Curaga was clutch.

Not counting Ifrit this was, by far, the hardest CM. It's just a perfect storm situation: It's II synergy which tends to be bad since people don't pull for it and the characters aren't great outside of II. The characters are very one dimensional with no dancers for Multi Break. Also multi enemy fights can be rough with all the damage going out.

So CM for FF2 mote is a PITA with all the stuff I typed earlier and what Angel said, also add Ninja and Spellblade to the list of missing ability class that would be REALLY nice to have. Decided to go physical and screw sleep strat - quite a few S/L later, managed to master with this:

Josef (Back): Magic Breakdown / Boost (Attack + Regen RM)
Firion (Front): Flashing Blade R2 / Demonsblood R1 (Samurai Damage ++ RM)
Gordan (Back): Full Breakdown R3 / Haste R4 (Mako Might - have Flame Shield SB)
Maria (Back): Meteor R3 / Haste R4 (Magic + Regen RM)
Minwu (Back): Curaja R5 / Shellga R1 (Dr. Mog's Teaching RM - Have Insta Curaga SSB)

RW: Indominatible Blade

Basically a game of protect the Firion, which I had to specifically dive just to get samurai abilities. Thanks DeNA.

I pulled a 2nd Gordan's Shield, Strago's SB, Setzer's SB and Zidane SSB... of which I already have his BSSB and SSB. Not exciting even though the shield probably helped a bit in Ifrit Mote. Fingers crossed for the next banner!

Maria cheese works but bring resist gear or P2 will kill you with the increased speed. Gigs Armlet is fantastic (Leon and Magic Lure!!) and you could have two copies, Necrophobe Ward is OK too.
