I was confident that after yesterday it would be a breeze the daily challenges, but I got my ass handed to me (still got my mythril tho)
Am i the only one without any FFX items in the inventory? I just realized it skimming through my inven tory if anything can help in the daily events.
Yeah today's' hard daily dungeon was much harder than yesterday's. Got my mythril but only had two people left standing. Man do I miss the EXP gains from yesterday though! It's hilarious how little I'm gaining now. That said... I'm glad the difficulty of the two was not reversed! Leveling yesterday definitely helped a lot. I'm breezing through Shinra on auto now... before I had to pay some attention and occasionally heal. Already got my 3 star summoning orb for the day and hopefully will get my 4 star next so i can farm some elemental orbs (I decided if I can get one of each summon orb a day... then by the end of the event I'll have enough to do one of each level summon... going for a second or an upgrade would be too cumbersome this time around). And man if I can master the hard daily today... I pretty much have shiva in the bag! That'd be fun :- )
Which one can be more impactful? I've only got mats for one: Double Cut? or Jump (for Kain)? Im thinking double cut will be more useful coz it can be equipped on a few options, while Jump is only for Kain. Plus, i've already gotten Sephiroth so i dont need Jump to give Kain the ranged attack he needs.
Hahahaha. I had the same debate last week and went with double cut. No idea how good jump is... but double cut works with anyone so it got my vote!
I got the mastery after a couple of tries. It was a matter of luck since Im not that strong. Some enemy combinations make it near impossible to get the mastery if you cannot breeze through the levels those effin green plants and the vouivre or whatever they are called using fire attack on the whole party >: ( I agree, the exp is laughable compared to yesterdays event. I lack 3-star summon orbs to make Shiva though. (Im not that interested in summons because of the number of uses and the difficulty to hone them)
Yeah I'm curious how worth it they really are...I'm sure Shaun can comment on that aspect. I could've made the first 2 summons for a while now but don't want to feel like I'm lacking and wasted my material. I'm one orb away from the 2* one but once again Idk if I wanna just wait until I can do a 3*. Also would these replace Rydia's soul break or are they cast like a magic spell?
Yeah... freaking seed cannon. Wrecks Rydia... As for summons... I likely will end up subbing them out for higher level spells (for multiple uses) eventually ... but the allure of getting them is still too much for me to pass up! If the drops for the summon orbs were not guaranteed I would not do it... but guaranteed makes it tough to pass up. Shaun previously commented the first 2 summons were not worth it at all. Did not elaborate much on the later ones. I believe they are spells though... not limit breaks.
I have Ramuh/Shiva/Ifrit, all three honed once so I can use them twice. They basically deal about 4x the damage of -ra level Black Magic and about 2x -aga level spells. They are very, very strong. With a good magic stat, they'll effortlessly do 9999 damage to enemies weak to their element. I never leave home without the element-appropriate pick of the three.
Thanks Shaun! How tough is it to get the 3 star summoning orbs then? Should I be farming the crud out of Rufus for them now? Currently I was only aiming for 10... I might be able to swing 20 by the end of the event if I really push for it.
I managed to kill the puppy, is rufus fairly strong / lots of hp? he killed rydia in the very first hit before she could get off one spell. so I think with a little luck I might be ok, but first hit 1 hit KO? cmon. LAME
This is my current party,concerned I dont have the strength in levels or equipment to beat the Shinra tower, (at the 100gunner stage currently).Got a few days to farm/level up. Any tips?!
Your levels are sufficient (more obviously never hurts) First thing to do is get the master reward at the underground waterway. Then upgrade it to max level. The rod really helps Rydia. The boss is even weak to lightning which helps since that's what you want for 100 gunner anyway and you have those abilities Second... make sure all your equipment is at max level. It's a quick way to gain a good chunk of stats... Do you have any bows? If so throw it on tyro. If not no biggy. I'd make thunder strike for wakka if you have the orbs. Make sure Rydia has the best defensive piece of equpiment she can have. Or possibly farm up a black cowl. The boss of Shipgraveyard (FFV) drops the 3 star Black Cowl rarely. Do it on normal not elite for the drop! It is very rare though so don't hold your breath.
Wow, I've been playing FF for some time and never put that into consideration because that's news to me lol Definitely good to know Would you mind posting some of your good equip/abbities if you already haven't here?
Swap equipment for equipment from FF VII, even when the stars are lower. The synergy bonus will more than make up for it.
Im pretty sure my levels were lower than yours when I did it. Did you upgrade your equipments? The rod from waterways (FFIV, second stage) may give a much needed boost.
