Not sure if I missed this one before but is there a reason why this never showed up on the hot new games side panel on the app? It's not like it's a slow topic app!
Yeah the 200g rewards is ridiculous. Others aren't too bad. And... this latest event... 10 stamina jump i can live with... by why such crummy orbs if it's 10 stamina a stage? Ah well :- ) I'll get plenty of them all eventually.
So I have a team of Tidus, Cloud, Tyro, Sephiroth and Rydia, all between lvl 35-41! Now that Cecil is out should I replace one of my guys? Is Cecil better than those that are on my team now? Thanks for the advice! #
Tough to say so far, dark Cecil seems pretty decent,levelled him to 20 so far and he's dealing some pretty good melee damage, plus his soul break is pretty good(basically drain). Should have the paladin Cecil in about an hour as on the final stage so will let you know!
Honestly I know the stamina refills fairly quickly but.. The battles vs how much stamina you have is still ridiculous. It's literally maybe a 3-4 minute play for every 3.5-4 hours unless you get on every 30 minutes to do 1 battle. That's still stupid. At least in other games I can do stuff for hours before I log out to wait for stamina, like summoners war. I say either make it possible to find gems as well so it's a little easier to refill stamina sometimes or at least lower the required stamina for battles a little, sheesh.
I’m kind of glad that I can play only a few minutes before depleting the stamina bar with these events, otherwise I would spend way too much time grinding. I only wish it was more rewarding. The accessories are ok (kind of... maybe...), the orbs are somewhat lacking etc.
Just pulled a 3 star Black Cowl from the free daily draw followed by a 5 star Genji Armor on a mythril draw. I've pulled a Regal Dress last week and would love to get a 5 star weapon instead, but I'm not complaining.
Better than me! I have only received 1 star from the free relic draws... and only have the regal gown for my myhtril pulls. That said... don't underestimate it. It's veeeeery good. It really helps protect your squishy mages (Rydia)! Agreed. I think the stamina thing is good overall. The stamina to reward for this event is just a little off. I'm sure it will be better in future events as this current one was the first one they ever made.
The daily rewards and the stamina are the weak links of the game. The rewards are pitiful and the stamina cost per round is way way too high. 3 min of play every 2hrs or so is not right. The freemium model is fine, theres not even a store really, I had to go looking for it! You cant even really buy anything besides stamina refills or relic pulls, its not a bad system. Id think you could at least buy exp eggs or something. Levels you master should drop down to 1 stamina cost, that way we can grind if we want to but have to spend more stamina to progress.
That's exactly the point though. They don't want you to grind endlessly. They want to keep you hooked and anticipating when you can play again (or give them money to play now). It's a very well designed system that I doubt they tweak. Just look at how well Puzzle and Dragons is doing (which is what this system is based off of). The most they might do is tweak the stamina cost of a stage if they agree with us it is too high relative to it's gains. The only ones that have seemed out of whack so far are this new event... so I bet they let it ride since it's a limited time thing anyway... and you are still getting cecil and mythril out of it... which is a pretty great reward.
These games are like virtual pets, they are not supposed to be done at once. You tend it with care every day and after a period of time it will grow stronger.
If anyone is still having trouble wirh the Shinra challange (Getting Sephiroth), I found a way, that didnt require me to level up Ridya and Wakka - the Slow Spell. It gives enough time for my WhiteMage to heal up Tyro and BlackMage, who are equipped with Thunders (my logic is that 8 uses of thunder deal more than 4 uses of Thundara, so I went with that). Did both mechs easily on entire party 25-27lvl, no lightning rod. Kain did some jumping and Tyro played the harp. Same went for Rufus. And for those who are having trouble - set the dog on fire a couple of times, then slow Rufus and its easy from there. I hope this helps someone. I had a lot of trouble, because I really didnt want to grind the lower levels and risk not taking home Seph. Still havent gotten the ring, but I will try again later.
Fully forgot the trick with the Dark Knight at the end of the Graveyard stage........ Will remember when my stamina is back up again.
Yep, I meant once those new chars are of a higher level I'm currently thinking of skipping them altogether as they wouldn't be much help in FF6 elites. Still can't clear those even though my party now is 45-47. Hoping for the FF6 chars to be released soon for the Realm Synergy boost
Cleared new event. It was quite easy and definitely just worth for the characters. Hopefully when we get a new mage I can change her for Cecil as I like him much better and probably Cloud for whoever the new mage is.My party consists of so many characters that I dislike >.> (tidus — I could barely play FFX because of this prick, Rydia, Cloud)
