reposting from previous thread since this was amusing to think about:
>ok anons think in the last general/board you visited aside /ffg/, ok? well, surprise a new game is announced, and it's a crossover of FF with the topic of that general/board.
>now tell me, what game was released?
Pic related, I don't think I could have picked a single general worse to fuse FF with.
>>146544183
Oh no, I don't have a ticket!
By the way how long should we keep that Explorers part up there since it's pretty much... kaput. Could make way for WoFF? Then again I don't want to make Anon thatperhaps copy and pasted it from GameFaqsfeel bad.
>>146545435
Both of /ffg/'s game FAQs, RK and Explorers, are both natively written. It's just that Explorersguy is dead like his game so the broken English will stay. Might as well cut the FAQ.
>no E3 trailer
>the only thing we've gotten since the last trailer is this single mobius card that has a slightly different shot of the same scene we saw in the trailer
FUCK
>>146545625
>>146545435
Xemnas (the explorersguy) still posts here from time to time, but only god knows why he forgot his guide.
There's this weird gap between Aerora Strike and Tornado Strike.
Basically, Aeroga Strike when?
>>146545435
Does anyone seriously even play Explorers anymore? We should cut it altogether, or at least stuff into it the pastebin.
Quick /ffg/ post your favorite Cid!
>>146546587
Cant post dick picks.
Going to take this opportunity to once again update the RK FAQ.
Things already on my to-do list:
>section on Neo Bahamut
>small note about Dark Matter and 8* equipment
>Cid Missions about U+ battles
>Record Motes, Mote Dungeons
Anything else I'm missing? Have an image of comfiest mega evo for your trouble.

>>146542915
can we ever get another moogle that doesn't look/act/sound like an absolute faggot? Please Squeenix?
>>146548627
Ready to get a whole lot of nothing. Gonna put 45 myth into banner 1 and the rest into banner 4 and hope for chocobrush and an excalibur then hope for anything good in 4
>>146548627
I'm scared shitless tbqh. I've run simulations and I really just can't find a way to do it that has consistently good results. With the previous fests I was able to run simulations and find a way to disperse my mythril to get something I could work with, here its looking like a complete crapshoot. I'm at the mercy of the jewgles on this one.
>>146517362
I haven't started playing it myself, but a bunch of friends irl started a small competition with it and tried pretty hard to find the strongest stuff. Early on duelists and zealots were in pretty much everyone's team, iirc, which makes sense since it's tons of damage and reliable debuffs at considerable range.
Two of them started later and made all moogle/viera teams though, so I'd say other things also work.
Judging from what I've seen in the threads, debuffing to block certain enemies and haste are definitely how most people play.
>>146549048
>not just spending the extra 5 mythril for an extra relic
???
>>146549226
>doing 11 pulls
No
>>146549226
>>146549260
>pulling at all
>not hoarding all mythril until we get guaranteed 5* on 11 pulls
If I manage to get to 50 mythril, where in the BSB should I spend them?
I already have a lot of white mage breaks + quite a few of the attacks.
>>146549439
Phase 4 has shout and a lot of fairly decent relics in general.

>>146550328
to show off
>>146550253

>>146550369
>>146550328
>>146550253
>>146550421
Just asking if there's something good that I'm overlooking, but the best should be to just pull on a whim. What I need is hones.
>>146549439
Banner 1 has the most qt relics, draw there tbqh
>>146550509
Oh fuck off with the waifufaggotry, you thirsty shit.
>>146550505
so use your mythril on refreshes on the next orbfest retard
>>146550723
ok, kiss
>>146550723
>orbfest
anon...
>>146550770
kiss my dick faggot
>>146551029
there's no way we're not getting orbfest at all even if it is delayed for whatever reason and even if we skip this one, I specifically said "next orbfest" to pre-empt faggots like you who I knew would contribute with le epic greentext + reaction image because no fest has been datamined yet.
>>146551205
Your dick is smaller than a thumb. Even for not size queens that's smashingly underwhelming. Oh well, at least you'll never use it on another human. :)
>>146551251
hi Manel
>>146551376
Am I supposed to know what that is?
>>146551492
seeing as you are him, I'd say yes

Sure I am. I am also Satan, Santa and one of the Beatles.

>>146551762
Ok, virgin. :)
I fucking hate summer.
>>146549121
>a bunch of friends irl started a small competition with itJelly.
I use only Marche, bangaa and viera units and it works, but it'd be heaps harder without Zeal, Haste or general Archer debuffs. Paragons and Elementalists are amazing, and so are Templars and White Monks, Adversity is one of my favorite abilities.
>>146552126
Yeah, you fatfucks sweat too much. Fucking disgusting.

>tfw it's comfy winter here in Australia

Terra's OSB has a 40x multiplier.
That's about as much as 3 memento-mori boosted Dark Zones.
Power creep.

can someone post that image of all the banners please? need to look over it all so i know how to distribute my mythril and get nothing for them.
>>146552456
It's magic based. Everything magic has higher multipliers because magic has a shittier formula
>>146552904
you're missing the point. Three Dark Zones under Doom fucking hurts.
Of all the cool and interesting payable races 14 could of added they instead decided to give us shitty human recolors. A literal Big guy human, a lanky guy human, a pedobait human and worst off all furryshit human. Ivalice had perfect playable races. And for that reason I will never play 14 whether its a good game or not.
>>146552625
its surprising that hope got a OSB this quickly. I imagine Lightnings OSB will be the main prize in the next FFXIII event but Serah should have gotten it before hope imo
>>146552981
The entire roster should have gotten it before Hope.
>>146552963
And an OSB which is meant to be one single target huge hit should hurt. What's your point?
>>146553042
Even Cid?
>>146552981
>>146553042
Fuck no. Hope has been here longer.
Are there seriously still no fucking Type-0 HD CE manga scans? Can't find any.
>>146552976
There's objectively nothing wrong with a lalafell.
The point is that 40 is a huge multiplier even for magic so I fail to see what the purpose of pointing out magic has higher multipliers is since that giy was comparing total damage output rather than raw multipliers (and was talking about two magic skills anyway so the comparison would have been good regardless). Your post was literally "look at how knowledable I am about this game for pointing out shit everyone knows about its mechanics" when nothing in that post suggested the guy didn't already know that.
>>146553074
Cid Raines literally did nothing wrong, and actually did what the party was unable to do: realize his focus was fucking bullshit and defy it. Then he took pity on them, saw they were too weak to make the choice he had because their focus was bullshit too, and decided to kill them to prevent them from having to suffer as Cieth. The only reason he wasn't absolutely 100% right was Etro's Deus Ex Machina bullshit, that ended up breaking time and destroying the world anyway.
Also somehow they forgot to give HIM an Eidolon when he questioned his focus.
>>146553252

Except the name sounds like falafel and they should still be called Taru.

don't be left out anons!
You can do that too!
Start doing your squats now and one day you may be a hero too!
>>146552976
In FFXIV there actually is sort of a reason why all the playable races are human-like, because in-universe there is a stigma regarding the various "beast tribe" races of Eorzea. If the playable character were something like a sahagin or a slyph or a bangaa like you suggested that would require a LOT of dialog and scenes to be rewritten all across the game.
>>146552251
>comfy winter
There is such a thing as comfy winter. This is not it.
>>146554261
Yet Ishgardians don't bat an eye when they see an Au'ra. Yeah, I get they're supposed to look more demonic than dragon-like but they honestly look like dragon people.
GAS THE BEAST TRIBES
>>146552456
I drew 2 of this thing in my new JP account. Its absolutely fucking ridiculous.
Its still a fresh as shit account but the fact that my level 40 Terra with shit equipment, no accessory/RM/RS can hit for upwards of 60,000 damage is absurd.
>>146552896
Here you go anon
>>146554567
Apparently the Dark Knight storyline goes into that topic a little bit. I don't the details since I don't tank, but apparently at some point in Ishgardian history they did think Au Ra were heretical dragon spawn and tried to slaughter any that found themselves in Coerthas, but they later figured out this wasn't the case and ceased said hostility towards them.
>>146554990
My plan is 1/0/1/5/3 11x draws, with a possible extra one depending on what I get and how much mythril I can scrape up towards the end.
>>146555414
>>146554856
Now try it on something with actual resist and it'll probably do 6k
>>146554990
I know I'm focusing on 1 and 4, but I don't know how much I should spend on each.
I already have the Chocobo Brush on banner 1 and Defender/Genji Blade on banner 4.
I've got SG and Tailwind too so I'm probably going to ignore banner 5 more or less.
I've got 256 mythril, so maybe 2 draws on each of those banners and 1 on banner 3? Banner 3 is a bit of a bitch though, it's got 3 relics I would really like and nothing else I'm interested in.
>>146554990
thanks anon
>>146554990
Do DeNA themselves release all the SB banners at once, or do they only do it one at a time and it's something that the dataminers have to reveal?
>>146554990
I only have 100 Mythril so I guess I'll do a 11x on one and then hoard until 4/5.
>>146556972
About 105 here, thinking of doing 11x on 1st, then on 4th and hopefully saving up enough for another on 5th.
>>146557145
Better pray for orbfest.
If I spend all my mythril during the BSBfest will I have enough time to get 25 mythril for the Support lucky draw?
>>146557478
Yes
>>146552625
why is vaan summoning neon tapeworms?
>>146558030
I have no idea what that is. Looks like a Mega Red Spiral or something.
>>146552456
it's more of a power sprint desu
>>146554990
>Flexible Arm is here when it's in the current Braska event
>but we still don't get Thyrus
Disappointing.
>the redwings missions with the themed moogles supporting their monster boss
This is so cute and they're kicking my ass so hard
>>146558645
moogles are evil
>>146558645
I'm sad I postponed some mission branches, they only use the same gear you have available so some of them become a faceroll later on.
I'm really loving the encounter diversity though, from somewhat overpowered monsters you outnumber to legitimate humans that have more or less the same ruleset it makes the game feel alive.
ded general, ded fantasy
I started playing Lightning returns and I see so many people with ??? above their heads so I assume i can talk to them, but actually I can't.
Am I doing something wrong?
2/1/2/2/0
I may switch round 2 to round 5. I kinda of need a strong 7 sword anyways. I dont need tiduses bsb
>>146557418
Yeah it's a tricky thing, because 4th and 5th pulls are a must for me, the 1st would be a nice plus. So I'll have to follow my gut on the mythril spent.
>>146559903
Guessing you have SG?
>>146559932
There's alwaysgems, kupo.
>>146559935
Yup.thyrus too
Actually, now that you say that, I'm wondering whether or now I should pull on round 3.
>>146546587
The only Cid that's truly disappointed me is Raines. Not too surprising I suppose.
>>146550505
Theres PCeicel on Rydia 1 and Tidus BSB if you want to be patient and wait for his OSB/5* water skills.
>>146560014
I have SG and Tailwind and there's a grand total of 2 or 3 other relics I'm interested in on banner 5, so I'm staying away.
Even banner 3 only has 3 or so relics I'd want, so I'm not really sure if I should gamble on it.
>>146560160
This, it's worth mentioning that banner 1 of the Rydia event has some really nice stuff on it.
>Rydia event
Go on
>>146560239
Dreamstage is definitely nice, but I already have a white mage main stays (Aeristh). However, if I pull tyro's bsb, I can pull for another white mage's relic, or pull for yshtola's ssb.
I really want tailwind and shout. I would really like Cecil's and Celes's exacliburs.
>>146559903
I'm hoping to have 200 myth by the end of the fest but I'm not sure I'll make it but I'm pulling 1/0/0/2/1 if I can.

actually no that's not ironic at all now that i think about it. fucking paladins, man
>>146560987
Use your own discretion, I made it purposely vague so people with over 9 games could use their own definition of majority of the games.
>>146561185
isn't that just the user taking damage instead of the unit?
its coming...
>>146562209
When you see it...
that was fun
Should I save up all of my stamina for the Gilgamesh event tonight?
>>146562189
that's what I thought it'd do, what it actually does is teleport the cover guy to replace the attacked unit, then use his evade and defense to calculate damage and THEn use his reaction ability before swapping them again
super good I love it
>>146562967
Does it always count as being attacked from the front, or does it depend on where the guy originally gets attacked from?
>>146563061
I think marche teleported looking at the attacking snek, but I'll test more
>>146562912
It won't be on for a very long time. You got plenty of time to do a daily or whatever it is you want to do.
The best part of FFTA is hunting for characters to fill out the rest of your team.
>>146563061
>>146563149
Since you guys seem to be later into the mod, have you been replacing units with newcomers of same class?
I saw a guy suggesting it but I can't see a reason to do it, they have the same stats and the level differences in sidequests makes it piss easy to level up.
>>146563795
I guess if someone falls off like a ton of levels, but like you're saying they level up very fast so unnecessary imo
it's good the grind is fucking gone though, vanila was the opposite with newcomers being shitters with no skills so what was the point
>>146563795
I had a guy really fall behind so I replaced him with a good newcomer, but it's not really something you'll have to do often, if ever.
>>146561348
what did he do right?
>>146543046

What GMT time does the clock reset and we get the event? (it was at 1am before the time change and, at 2pm is when we get the daily bonus. The events used to start at 1am).
>1 XP to level
Wow, pretty slim odds of that happening
>>146566876
>The events used to start at 1am
Well then it's 2am now.
>>146566901
Forgot pic
>>146566929
But I usually get the daily dungeons till way past 7 am, which means nothing happens at 2. Maybe it refreshes (unforcefully) if I close and reopen the app?
>>146566334
Harbl is far too old of a reference for 99% of current 4chan browsers to get

A sign you'll get the Excalibur for Cecil

Or a sign that he'll always be one pull away from getting it.

Is it worth going for Banner 2 for damaging SBs? Or better to just focus on Banner 1?
>>146560435
>Tailwind and Shout
Kind of problematic to have 2 awesomeballs SBs on the same character.
I have Tailwind and Stones and I can occasionally use the Stones towards the end, but the gauge is usually used up by Tailwind.
>>146549439
Do you have Wall?
Banner 5 if not.
>>146550509
Fuck off.
>>146568606
My Ramza packs Lifesiphon/Full Break, so it's no issue for me. Speaking as someone who has both of those SBs, anyway.
>>146568606
Y'shtola has 3 great SBs, all of which will be available during the XIV event that's parallel with both Burstfest and Big Bridge, to make sure that you have absolutely no mythril or stamina to spend on it, and she can't use Lifesiphon.
DeNa are sadists.
>>146568724
I don't have wall, but I was thinking of banner 4, due to tyro's thingie.
Also, tyro getting a dress record? He seems older in the pic.
>>146568882
Tyro's SG is the wall he refers to, and that's on the 5th banner, I believe.
>>146568882
tyro's burst is very convenient but where near as powerful as SG
>>146568882
>but I was thinking of banner 4, due to tyro's thingie
The "thingie" you're thinking of is probably his BSB, and that's on banner 3.
SG on banner 5 is better for that anyway.
>>146569050
>>146569042
>>146568969
>>146568882
Already, guess I'm gunning for the 5th. Thanks for the help!
>>146569050
>is better for that anyway
I meant to say better THAN that.
>>146568882
Also they did mention the possibility of a Tyro dress record in a stream a long time ago, but that was for a female Tyro. I'm still curious whether that's going to happen or not.
>>146569112
I would actually pull on the 4th if I were you, it has Shout and is a better banner overall. You could get Shout and RW a Wall.
If you get SG you'll probably be RW-ing Shout most of the time anyway desu.
>>146569250
Nah, got my own lvl 80 shout as a permanent team member, since he can also fullbreak and interrupt the enemies by chucking rocks.
With 200 myth and without wall or shout, should I pull all on one of them, pull on shout and if get it pull rest on wall, or divide between them regardless of pull results?
>>146569405
You could pull on the XIV banner for Thyrus for Wall and get this cutie?
>>146569448
I'd plan to do up to 3 11x pulls on the fourth, and then spend the rest on the fifth. It's important to realize when to stop, though.
If you get Shout or a good chunk of the other relics on the fourth banner in your first 1 or 2 pulls, stop and wait for the fifth banner.
>>146569537
Oh go fuck yourself, waifushitter.
>90 Mythril
Its all up to the rng gods
wew lads, I've got ~ 250 mythril. What phases should I spend it on?
>banner 1: have Mog and Vanille's relics (and I have basic Runic for Celes)
>banner 2: have Edgar's Drill
>banner 3:have Yuffie's medica
>banner 4: have Shout

Some banner 1 and 2 and then the XIV event, probably banner 2 I guess.
>>146570049
The real fear should be the friggin Hairpin for Red.
>>146570025
So you should aim for the bsb's. Cecil stands out cause it also boost holy damage.
>>146570025
One 11 draw on banner 1
Ignore 2
One (perhaps two) 11 pull on 3
One 11 pull on 4
Ignore 5
Save the rest for guaranteed 5* or something, you're pretty much set.
>>146570090
>and then the XIV event
Why would he do that?
>>146570184
I'm dreading that shit. The only relics I got from the lucky draws around SSBfest were Tifa's first SB and a damn hairpin.
>>146570292
Er, I meant to suggest that perhaps two pulls on 4 would be good. One on 3 is perfectly fine.
When does it start, exactly?
Wow, after what seemed like forever, I finally got another FFVII dungeon. Core dungeons are fun.
>>146552396
Real waifus have_dicks.
>>146570090
>>146570215
>>146570292
Agreed on 1, I'll do at least one pull there. It's a really good banner, just suffers from being common realms.
I might pull on two, if only for the BSSBs. I dont have any 8 weapons, and Tidus is pretty good with dismissal and/or chainstarter/fullcharge.
>>146570184
Magic Comb is aids.
>>146570184
>I already have a 5++ magical comb
Fuck banner 3, I'll just pull on 2 instead
Holy shit this RK nonsense is getting out of hand. We need to change/ffg/ to fucking /rkg/ now. This must be how /twg/ once warhammer launched.
>>146570461
it says right on the banner dude
>>146568814
She can use Wrath and there is always Entrust.
All my mythril is going for Twin Lance though, if some remains I will gamble a bit on B4.
>>146570813
You guys are never happy.
You complain about talking about RK too much, but then when people start doing other things like LPs, you guys still complain.
What the fuck will make you happy?
>>146570184
Eh, it's not the worst thing in the world even if it's character locked since Red XIII's actually not a bad character.
Like he's far better as a support than Barret at any rate.
>>146570461
Banner 1 is in a bit over 8 hours.
>>146570813
Forgot your reddit frog reaction image
>>146570813
calm your tits faggot. There's a major event going down soon so of course people are talking right now. Are you suggesting we should have turned into /lpg/ when we had like three lps going on at a time too? RK talk has been pretty tame for the most part lately.
>>146570815
>>146571063
I thought it was independent from the Gilga event. Cheers!
>>146571041
>Like he's far better as a support than Barret at any rate
Japan considers Barret the worst support in the game, so that's not saying much.
Never played FF before, just bought FFXIII off steam. So far I'm 9 hours in and I'm having a blast. How long does the game last?
Should I buy the 2 sequels? This is pretty fun.
>>146570513
>Core dungeons are fun.
lol
>>146571041
I have Barret's Atomic Scissors. I can't take getting a Hairpin, too.
>>146571169
It's a good 60 hours. FF games are long.
>>146571169
>Never played FF before, just bought FFXIII off steam.
it's not too late to refu-
>So far I'm 9 hours in
oh
>>146571164
Worse than Irvine?
Holy shit.
>>146571169
if you like XIII and want more after finishing it, you should get the sequels. They're both great games though in terms of story they're wildly different from the originals.
>>146571385
No one wants to risk their cuties in a party with a big black guy.
>>146571373
Wait is it supposed to be bad or something.
Though I must admit there are times whereby the combat is super boring and just doing the same combo again and again,
>>146571041
>since Red XIII's actually not a bad character.
on the one hand his stats are fantastic for a non-ramza support 5
on the other hand his weapon options are utter garbage and he can't use light armor
>>146571501
memesters like to pretend its the worst thing to ever happen. In reality, most FF games are heavily flawed but still enjoyable games just like XIII
>>146571630
Okay I'm gonna leave this thread now. Looks like there's lots of spoilers around here.
>>146571501
yes it's bad, the plot is a mess, the combat is super boring and just doing the same combo again and again and there's not really anything else there
>>146571678
>Looks like there's lots of spoilers around here
It's like that for any general, yeah.
>>146571753
or any place where people are discussing seven year old games, even
>>146571828
>ff13 is 7 years old
Holy fuck
>>146571897
And we thought the gap between X and XII was big.
>>146571897
you're getting old, friend
>>146572045
Wonder how big the gap between XV and XVII will be.
>>146572145
25 years
>>146572145
Are you implying XVI will be online again?Because I don't think I'll be able to handle that.
>>146572145
I saw that. Fucking MMOs.
>>146572346
Well they're going to need a new MMO after 10 years :^)
>>146572346
rip
>>146571169
>I'm having a blast
Good thing I'm not the only one. I personally loved FFXIII despite a lot of people disliking it.
Right now I am playing XIII-2 and would say it is worth it if you like 13.
Ffta romhack is bullshit. It is impossible to win the first totema fight without savescumming. When I asked for a harder ffta I didn't mean likr this.
>>146572872
or maybe your setup or strategy just sucks
>>146571630
yeah, I agree. 13 is my least favorite, but it was playable.
>>146573000
Or maybe making everything stronger and renaming classes into weeb shit isnt really a hack
>>146573174
>>146571630
The combat is serviceable, though not great. The real problem people have with XIII is the atrocious immersion/worldbuilding and characters. The world of XIII is not one that I would ever want to find myself in. Every other FF has at least one or two locales which look like they'd be worth a tour. Sure some of the areas on Cocoon look pretty, but we never learn enough about them to really get interested, and what little we do learn makes them seem like bland and unpleasant places.
>>146573280
This when a fucking fairy can oneshot a BM you know something is wrong. And what is up with the cringeworthy fan names? I mean cultist and zealot really?
>>146573440
I wouldn't mind hunting some beast on the steppes. But that's really it.
Oh, and maybe go shopping in cocoon. I really missed towns with people in xiii. Felt kind of lonely
>>146573440
It's worth noting that the reason the game's a corridor is because they cut tons of side content and then recycled some of it for xiii-2. I remember being in the archylte steppe and getting treasure popups that lead to walls, meaning there used to be areas there (I had the chocobo lake and thentitan trials path open). Also all those obvious roadblocks in all the Cocoon areas, or the Ark where they didnt even place them and just had pointless, empty paths. But yeah the story was basic, the party uninteesting, the cast very small and the dialogue cringe worthy.
>>146573000
What is wrong with my setup?
Marche: Duelist/challenger
Moogle:gunner/item
Bangaa: gladiator/templar
Viera:archer/sniper
Human:zealot/duelist
NuMou:BM/psion
What's the worst IX party you can assemble?
>>146573815
I liked sazh. Hope kinda felt like the most immature gundam pilot
>>146573924
Fix your set up by deleting the rom
>>146574269
Sazh was pretty much the only good character. Lightning was super bland, Snow would have been alright if he ditched his heroics bullshit for good after getting the pope to molest him, fang and vanille could have been interesting if iwe explored more lf their backstory, and hope was just a whiny kid. Sad that Sazh is comic relief for so long.
Also another pointer on how pathetic the writing is, Sazh only has one interaction with Fang and it's totally optional. In a FF where the cast weighs so much, they really fucked it up
>>146574026
Quina
Freya
???PROFIT
>>146574779
That sounds like a bad porno
>>146574026
Garnet looks pretty hot in that outfit.
>>146574852
A lot of spearing going on there.
>>146574913
Garnet looks pretty hot always
>>146575057
I never understood the inward foot thing, just makes the hottie look retarded
>>146575370
Bowleggedness is seen as cute in Japan
>>146575431
Japan also likes fucked up teeth
what a shit country
>>146575431
And Im assuming gaps as well?
Where the fuck is orbfest? I'm more interested in honing 5* abilities than I am in these banners.
>>146575637
then farm ++ dungeons you fuck, orbfest has worse drop rates than they do
>>146575885
is there actual data for this or is this just a meme perpetuated by retards who had bad luck with an orbfest? Between mini cactuars, jumbo cactuars and the cactuar trees JP had last fest I find it hard to believe you don't get way more bang for your buck from orb fest and in my personal experience this also holds true.
>>146576202
Not to mention the godtier exp farming
>>146576272
And the lower stamina cost.
