I wasn't joking. Cupid Luna is the only 5* max with chainsaw, but her terrible weapon selection means she can't build chains like Edgar can. If you were crazy enough to grind two extra Olive TMs though, it would give you the option of a chain-building setup that isn't as fragile as a 4* max like Edgar.

//Soon as I pulled my 3rd Olive I knew I was going down this path. Still... 4 Shine and 3 Olive -_______-. Should have it complete by the time GIlgamesh Trial comes out so I can see if a OTK is possible on him with Olive.

Maybe. 2x CLuna to build the chain, Olive and companion Olive to cap, Ariana for 60% atk buff, and a spare Olive or Seven for the 50% lightning imperil.

You'd want man-eater from star quartz and 2* diabolos though.

I pulled a 2nd olive with my daily summon but not seeing how I can make use. I spent all weekend getting everything to lvl 2 chiz's to 6 star max lvl. Still only 60% on my 2nd DW so not quiet where they need to be for chaining, wish I had been around for the fire kantana event. Only 40% (soon 50% from event moogle) on Olive sadly

For Gilgamesh would it be bad to maybe look at something like
Cecil -
Emp - DC 2 elements
ExD - DC 2 elements
Refia
Lightining - Can do ele attack + Excaliber

I don't have noct but sure ill have friend noct's which can cover mana regen and fill ele slots.I also have the 2 chiz's, olive, dark F, Luneth and queen at my disposal that are all max 6 stars. Also wasn't going to pull on banner but I don't have any damn + attack armor that is worth shit....is there any similar quality gear coming our way or is brave suit top end for quiet some time? If so I may at least take a stab at it. Ramza any good? I usually have Refia so cheer isn't anything great so outside of LB fill not seeing anything on him that would make we want to jump up and down for outside of a rare breaker I guess.

If Gilg is a stretched out fight, hopefully I can keep most ele coverage with ExD, noct, lightning, and ramp up fire from below? Shit starts hitting pretty hard if you can keep casting it.

I think I've only seen 3 bombs and 3 Nimbus in ELT. I ran PRO the first day and did not see either of them. I average about one each per day.

edit: I recall reading somewhere that the rare encounter rates are something like 3% on PRO and 5% on ELT. From experience, ELT does have a higher encounter rate, but it's still pretty low.

Olive w/ Machine Killer (BIS minus Ramza TMR) vs Elite Boss of Type Zero event.
Second Olive to debuff, Ariana to ATK buff.

No chain.

Oh I assume Olive's self attack/fire buff doesn't stack with any combat buffs from Refia etc right? Are all these buffs only on base attack not total attack or are there currently (or in the future) some that are + % total attack?

In combat buffs to the same stat don't stack. They buff base stat only (pots included).

Cheer would give a max atk pot Noctis +75 atk (188 base + 40%)

Hmm is the NOX macro that uses lapis refreshes extremely unstable? I've tried to test out a few times and never seems to go very long (1 hour if that....) before crashing to desk top.

Emulators and their stability varies wildly from person to person. I can't even get Memu to start FFBE at all without crashing, but Nox works fine on my PC. Other people say Nox crashes every 10 minutes for them and Memu is flawless.

Really you just have to go with trial and error to find out which works best for your specific setup.

managed 20 fights today between my macro dying early last night and leveling and saw my first golden bomb. The spawn rate on this shit is fucking terrible. I'm 1 for 70.

This event isn't as bad as the mog cakes event at least. I've had 2 nimbus and maybe 5 bombs this whole time. Thankfully, I finish up the grind tomorrow evening. Bad news is we still have one more type 0 event to go before we're finished with that garbage game forever.

Before FFBE I had never even heard of Type 0. Have no clue how it's such a big deal that they're spending 3 entire events on some random FF spinoff, with apparently shit characters. Makes no sense.

Finished gate of destiny for queen, got about all I need (all 6 star mats, Mog, megacite, gigataurs,) Going to farm TM's trying to get Olive's TM done, probably come back to farm some more 6 star mats since its about 2 6 star mats per 13 energy which is fairly stellar compared to anything ive seen so far. All of out of calamity gems and still have a lot of people to eventually evolve (marie, another emp, DKC, possibly a 2nd Olive).

Think i'm going to go for Ramza since sounds like he is 1 of 2 top support long term plus daddy needs battle suit.

I'm tempted to pull a few times on the next banner. More Agrias gets me closer to her TM and I don't have Snow or Ramza either, but I'd really like to save as much as I can for the player's choice and next FFT (Orlandu) banners. Just out of curiosity, who should I use as a capper if I don't have any of the *5 base units? I guess for most content I can use a friend unit Olive, Gilg, etc.
