I started with a 5* WoL, then pulled a 5* Leo during the Lightning banner, which was handy at the time but in retrospect it's super frustrating now that I realize just how close I was to pulling Lightning on my main. I originally started my memu alt as a joke with no intention of keeping it just because I was pissed about missing Agrias, so I figured by god, I was getting Agrias one way or the other. Then on my first reroll out pops Lightning, like wtf. So I figure I'll keep it to dink around with and maybe be able to sell it later. And then off a single 11 pull out pops Luneth.

I suppose if I can sell it before FF3 ends I could use that cash to make more pulls on my main, although at this point it would probably be wiser to let this banner go and save up for Orlandu.

*edit*

wtf is TMR injection? Is that basically just letting some dude hack TMRs into your account?

I've been considering saving and then dumping everything I have by then for Orlandu once he releases. The problem with that plan though is that his banner is complete trash except for Orlandu himself. If you dump 40+ summons on his banner, and don't get him, you're going to be incredibly sad with all the worthless Oveilia and Soleils that don't even have a worthwhile TM to at least give a consolation prize.

Maybe he's good enough to be worth the risk anyway, idk.

Refia would boost your dps once you level her to 6* level 85+, when she learns encourage (+45% atk/def for 5 turns). It's too expensive on mana to use on explorations and stuff, but for boss fights it's top notch. I'd drop exdeath or garland for her, at least until they get their 6* upgrade. If you want to give Refia something to do on trash fights that won't drain her mana too much, give her a copy of Bio-Blaster. It won't deal much damage on cast, but it has a high poison chance, and poison will tick for a lot on trash that survives the first turn.

Feels bad man.

My best healer atm is Fina, though I DO have 5 Maria's now and 5 Arc's!

Are the red dragons the only way to get more calamity gems? I'm two away from a 6* CoD. Already got the 5 from this event.

I found this on the Reddit board. I bought enough materials to get COD, Bartz and Exdeath to 6 star right away. Then I went and did something stupid like pulling Refia and totally screwed up my stockpile.

But our next event should be a King Mog event (the 18th maybe?) so I'll just get more materials then.

You'd just have to type out what you have, but if your account is bad enough that you should just reroll, this is certainly the banner to do it on.

If you re-rolled on this current banner until you got Luneth + Refia, your account is basically set for a very long time. Worst case scenario you could bring a friend Cecil for tanking duties when it's required. I know my friends list is like 35% Cecils now, sigh.

The only units in that list that are really relevant are Chizuru, Zidane, Kain, and Lenna.

Lenna's a great healer, but now that 6* healers are a thing, she's somewhat outdated.
Kain's a great dps for 5* unit, but like Lenna, he's outdated by anything 6*, which is becoming the new standard.
Zidane is worthless as a unit, but he has the best TM in the game.
Chizuru has a great TM, is solid today as a 5* unit, and is decent as a 6* in a few months.

As a whole, your roster could be better. Rerolling is tedious, boring, and could very well burn you out and make you say fuck the game as a whole before you got something that would be considered top tier. I guess it really depends how important having the best of the best units is to you. Over time, with just normal play, you should eventually pull some good stuff from daily summons etc if you decided to stay with it.

What seems to be the thing giving you trouble on pro of the event?

If you can find a high end Lightning or Luneth friend to tag along (linked to Diabolos preferably), they should be able to take out the bosses for you (especially Luneth, he's innately immune to most statuses).

Craft Bar-Blizzara (from a silver chest) and use it during the boss fight. You could also either levelup Fina or Lenna for Cheer (choose Lenna if you do this), or craft Bravery and cast it on Luneth/Lightning to boost their damage for the boss fight. I don't know if the medusa bosses use paralyze or petrify, but bring some items to cure both just in case.

Bring along your 4* Zidane to the pro mode, and use his Escape skill to run from every battle on the way to the boss. For the boss, put up bar-blizzara, give your carry friend an ATK buff, and let them do the work.

Finally finished Dual Wield TM tonight, and ended up throwing it on Kefka to give him 465 MAG. It's nice to have it done, but without having Rising Sun as well it doesn't help me much. Even on my phys team I think it will do more good on Agrias to let her use Shining Splendor+Blood Sword (or Mighty Hammer) rather than throwing a shitty 30 ATK offhand onto CoD.

CoD's naked attack is 223, vs Agrias's 108. Even if you left CoD's offhand completely empty, and gave Agrias's offhand Excalibur, CoD would do more damage with the dual wield materia. The mainhand weapon is not included at all for the offhands damage.

Yeah, I guess I didn't think that through entirely. Kind of like how I'm sitting here right now looking at my Luna 60.4% done with Barrage TM and wondering why the fuck I bothered. It's barely useful on Lightning if you are only using one of her; because of how poorly Barrage chains and how well Crushing Blow chains there is never a reason to use Barrage if you have two or more unless MP is a concern. I'm sure I can find someone to give it to, but compared to stuff like Dualcast (which I need to do at least 2 of), Excalibur #2, Sakurafubuki, etc. that's a colossal waste of TM%.

I've got 3 Luna's now, so I'm tempted to just put them all in for ~3 days and just get it over with by merging. I don't see myself ever wanting more than one Barrage at this point. It's not considered a good ability at all anymore in JP.

So I'm going to setup the TM grinding overnight, and was going to do 2x ludmille, pcecil, arc, and Zidane. Should I be dropping one or two or changing some out? Should I focus more physical or more magic?

For magic specific TMs, I've got a 3 shantottos (30% mag), 3 arcs (omnirod), 3 ludmilles (dual cast), 4 almas (lordly robe), 2 BCLid (Cat Hat), and 3 lennas (magi staff).
For physical specific TMs, I've got 3 Kains (gungir), Vaan (maximillian), Zidane (DW), Miyuki (Sakurafubuki), Agrias (Save the Queen), PCecil (Excalibur), and Edge (Hanzo Gauntlet).

I'd work on Agrias or Miyuki's TM over Arc's. Omni rod is only about 20 magic higher than the free wizard rod, but save the queen or sakura are like 30-40 atk higher than the free alternatives.

For barrage, I think everyone should get at least one copy. It's good on units like Lightning, but that's not the best place for it. Giving a unit like Cecil the barrage TM is great, since they have no attacks at all without it.
