So outside of having an existing lore built and concept designs I don't really see the benefit of them making a new game attached to the same name of a 14 year old game.

Hey you can call nostalgia on it but "new and improved". Kind of how Tree of Savior got all it's momentum out of being "a spiritual successor to Ragnarok Online".

Ha, Level 5 Death can go fuck itself.
>>
>>140256024
Balthier, Vaan, and Basch are all really good. Basch can use Draw Fire/Retaliate in case you don't have Gilgamesh. Ashe is a not-terrible BM, and Penelo's a good WM. Zack is the only one that's all that good in the VII event, though Yuffie has her uses.
>>
>>140256930
Because they can't just use Lv3 Death instead?
>>
>>140256024

There'll be a BSB event in a month or so with banners full of great shit, so if I were you I'd save that mythril until then. Try getting as much max stamina as you can until then, because you'll want to run those dungeons as much as possible as they shit orbs and xp.
>>
>>140256936
Right now I'm using Maria as my BM and Yuna as my WM. Would Ashe be better then Maria?
>>
>>140257072
They wouldn't use either anymore. Level 3 or level 5 death would mean instant ko on everyone who maxed out everyone (whether its 50,65 or 99), which is now common
>>
>>140257320

Ashe has a better skillset, better stats and XII synergy actually exists, unlike II, so yes. You'd honestly be better off just getting Terra, though.
>>
>>140257320
Maria kinda sucks, so I'd say yes unless you have a relic for her. It's not that much of a difference though, so you can keep Maria if you like.
This weekend is actually a great opportunity to level new characters, these orbfest dungeons give out lots of experience on top of their other rewards.
>>
>>140257440
>Anymore
Have they ever used any at all? I was replying to the anon because his post seemed to imply 99 is some magical indivisible number, but I don't think they've ever actually used it or would.

They could easily make it single-target but KO'ing and raising in this game is seen like an unfathomable act of heresy so they still wouldn't add it, I think.
>>
>>140257656
>>140257675
Thanks for the help guys. At the moment I'm sort of lost on what skills I should give to characters so I can win the harder dungeons.

Apparently from what people have told me on other sites and streams I've gotten some good SSBs? I have Gilgaemeshes Sword, Sentinals Grimoire, Lightnings Gun and something else I forget.

Not sure if I should use them or if they're any good
>>
>>140257878
According to the RK strategy site, Deathgaze could use Lvl5 Death. Never actually saw him use it though.
>>
>>140258039
>I have Gilgaemeshes Sword, Sentinals Grimoire, Lightnings Gun and something else I forget.
>Not sure if I should use them or if they're any good
You're fucking right they're good, especially Sentinel's Grimoire. Your top priority should be getting Tyro (or Cloud) to level 65 and getting his Memory Crystal 2 from the Hall of Rites, so that you can get the Record Materia that starts you off with a full SB bar.

I'd also recommend getting Gilgamesh from the Hall of Rites ASAP if you don't have him so that you can use that SSB. Perhaps Lightning too, if you can't wait a bit over a month for her next event.
>>
>>140258039

>Sentinel's

lel, people shit all over themselves trying to get that. It's a seriously great SB that boosts your DEF and RES on top of whatever other defensive buffs you have. Craft some breakdowns and you're good to go forever.

I don't remember what Girugamesh's SB does, but he's a solid as fuck character so you're also good to go there. Slap a draw fire + retaliate on him and go to town.
>>
>Cloud's RM4 is a 30% damage boost when wielding a sword

>>140258530
>I don't remember what Girugamesh's SB does, but he's a solid as fuck character so you're also good to go there
3 AoE hits + Heavy Regen on your party. I got it myself at SSBfest. The damage isn't all that amazing, but the Heavy Regen is extremely useful.

Come on man, we still haven't used most characters' final limit breaks! RK can't last THAT much longer, can it?

Always, though for more complicated battles I swap things around afterwards.

when is global getting god tier pixel damage numbers instead of vectorized shit
>>
>>140266464
Never because it re-equips all default SBs, gives you nonsensical RMs and tends to equip the wrong stuff on the wrong guys. Fixing it is so much of a hassle it isn't worth the effort.
>>
Lifesiphon-type attack for mages when?
>>
>>140267808
I don't get it, "fixing it" shouldn't take any more effort than just equipping all that stuff yourself, since you'll still have to do that anyway. The only real issue for me is the Default SBs being equipped, since it doesn't replace any RMs or abilities when the character has one equipped.

New guy here, managed to get Basch and Vaan thanks to roaming OP. My melees are yuffie, balthier and Cloud. With ashe hitting weaknesses for completion and penelo has cure and blindna. I read that Basch is really good but is that with an SSB weapon? His basic soul break seems good to use when a boss rolls around.

Also I beat that mission somewhat easily thanks to XII synergy, are the elite ones much harder? I've realized the difference in 5 or 10 on a difficultly score could mean a boss has 2k more hp or 20k more hp
>>
>>140269020
Basch is good even without an SB, Knights are great and he can Draw Fire/Retaliate which is incredibly useful for new players. His default SB honestly isn't worth using like almost every other one, it has a long cast time and the buff is barely noticeable.
And the only way to find out about those Elite dungeons is to try it yourself.

Well, Japan has seen an increase in +MAG all SBs which should come to us soon and just got its first 2-hit BM skill, so there might be hope.

Anyone else still playing this game with mage parties? The VII event was still doable, but rather hard, but it feelslike the bosses are gaining a ton of RES every week. My lack of VII synergy probably didn't help.

That's my point. Optimize doesn't make anything faster - I still have to go through everything manually except now I also need to unequip shit SBs. The RM part is annoying because if I have a character with Pride of the Red Wings I presumably want them to use a sword instead of a shitty knife because the character above them got assigned the last sword for being further up in the party. The only thing optimize is useful for is dailies.

Tactics.

Agrias (just amazing)

Rikku (Thief's Raid, even at 4 hits it's good)
Tifa (multi-hit SBs)
Faris (support)

is probably pretty solid. Take shout as your RW and just imagine Ramza as your self insert as you cheer the waifu squad on
>>
>>140275450
Celes, Agrias, Y'shtola (assuming SS2), Lightning, Yuffie (once she gets her MC2). All the attackers get self healing, you get to use three of the best 5* abilities (Saint Cross, Thief's Revenge and Full Charge) and between those characters, you have a nice mix of utility. Shout for RW obviously.

Its certainly viable, and there's not really a "best" party necessarily, you kind of have to build around what you pull and make it work as best you can. We call it qt keeper and its a fun thing a few of us here do. Speaking of which, its a good time to repost my qt keeper banner ratings:

Is this in order of what is coming? Cause, if so, fuck. I was hoping to build more mythril for Edea's banner for Rinoa stuff.

Rinoa's dress sucks. You're better off saving for her BSB if you want to pull for her.
>>
>>140283549
The numbers don't always tell the whole story. Kuja 2 has 3 qt relics 4 if you count kuja :^) to 2 male relics, and 2 of the qt relics are SSB (beatrix and garnet) with the third being eiko's golem flute - all of these are really high quality relics.

>>140283691
It is in order. The BSB fest at the bottom will likely fall somewhere in between but we don't know where yet (although more than likely after serah somewhere). And yes desch is a III banner, and refia's relic is pretty damn good.

Is Terra an "unlock when you can" like how Gilgamesh is? I have one more soul left and 4 crystals each of MC/MC2. Will probably hold out longer until the end of BSBfest to spend the MC crystals.

She's the best BM, for what that's worth. She's nowhere near as high priority as Gilgamesh, though.

>>140283954
Still better than her base SB, but wasn't her weapon available on the same banner or was that Seifer's?

Hey guys. I'm not sure if this is the wrong thread to ask this question in, but I was recently trying to install Final Fantasy XI to get into the private server Supernova, but for some reason, it doesn't seem to work. The site that says whether or not the server is down also doesn't seem to work. Does anyone have any information on this, or could anyone tell me of a better private server out there? Is it just better to suck it up and reactivate my account at this point if all I want to do is run through the storylines?
