I was able to get enough gems for Seph, so I'll pull for him. Hopefully it doesn't take a lot to get his EX.
No, you can use them to give exp to the 70CP armor.Is there any reason to save previously MLB'd armours, once you've upgraded to the new ones?
Holy f*ck it only took 13 tickets!!
Now I'm glad I MLB'd him on his first release, that makes me really happy haha
Got Seph's EX!
Only took four pulls so thankfully not a huge hit on my resources. :)
Thank you!
I CANT STOP SPENDING ON SEPH. ANOTHER 15k BUT I GOT HIS 35cp. SEND HELP.
I read this post and was like, yeah, this game is super generous, I still have tons of stuff to do and summon boards to clear and there's more yet to come....spend those last 50 tickets on Seph!! So I did and I got his EX!!! So thanks for that :)Glad to see so many lucky pulls and as for the unlucky ones there's no worries! I swear I used to worry about saving but this game just packs us with resources that I'm not too worried anymore. I'll be saving my stash... maybe try some tickets on seph though who knows.
Nice, almost perfect Rinoa.
Hopefully I'll have the same luck with Sephiroth when we'll be able to get his Eidojas on Lulu's coop.
I actually managed to land all 3 of Seph's weapons. He's definitely a game changer since with him at my side I'm actually clearing EX objectives for the first time!
Congrats to everyone else who got lucky on their pulls as well. The next big one is Vayne, right?
I've been saving and carefully pulling leading up to him and ZACK FAIR BABY!! And as of now have roughly 110,000 Gems to rock with. You need 75,000 to GUARANTEE you'll get a character's EX even if your luck is abysmal, so I'm not taking any chances with him.
Edit: oh, news update, got seph's 35cp, so it was all worth it! I'm still hoping I can nab his EX after throwing a couple of characters through the Ifrit Board sometime soon, but I'm not going to be mad if it doesn't work out.
I hope Lion gets her rework in JP soon, I have to know those off-banners weren't for nothing.
Man, Zack might actually be my favourite character in FF7 (largely thanks to Crisis Core hitting me straight in the feels). At least you'll know you'll get his EX with that massive gem stash!
Actually, I've been saving up as per the advice I got from everyone here (around 35k atm, got really lucky with tickets on Seph's banner) and seeing you're super savvy on DFFOO I gotta ask, would it be wiser to save for Vayne or Zack?
PS: Grats on the 35cp for Seph! Hopefully the EX follows soon. :)
Zack is a longer term investment, since he get's his EX+ much sooner then Vayne and provides a ton of damage to go with his Atk and brv aura and unique tanking ability, so I'd say he's the better deal.
However, if you already have Warrior of Light's EX, you might be more interested in Vayne purely because you already have a character fulfilling tanking roles, since WoL get's really really really good when he gets his Rework.
I guess my main team will now be Rinoa, Quistis, Cloud, with exceptions made as needed.
Oh and I'd really like Sephiroth EX, but missed so far on 1 pull and 20 tickets.
WTF Vayne and Zack are early next month, they are the next event / LC after Cid/Lann&Reynn
Somehow I always though Vayne would be way closer to the level 70 awakening update than that, like September for us.
Tried a few comp but I need Cosmos since everything is just too easy haha.OH SHIT, I'm both excited and worried! I was hoping I could save up a little more, but I'm just going to have to make due. Best of luck to everyone gunning for them!
As an aside, how has Sephiroth been affecting your team compositions lately? I Imagine he's been doing really well with Lenna, but I'm interested in knowing if his constant turns and reduction of enemy speed has made any interesting issues or solutions!
WOOOO DREAMS COME TRUE
I lucked out on mr. misplaced memory man, I Finally got the momma's boy, all I need to do is continue to be ready to pity on the greatest Ameri-I mean, Midgar Hero, and I'll have my SOLDIER BOYZ Ready to roll out!
Question though, should I spend my tickets on the Lulu banner, since I have two awesome characters to pull for, or hold onto them as a Hail Mary in case I can't get Vayne or Zack in August with my gem stash?
Congrats dude!! And also to the rest who managed to pull Seph's EX! <3
Also personally I'd wait for Vayne and Zack, since from what I keep hearing they're both amazing units. I'm not sure about Jecht (especially if you have Seph) and Lulu appears without an EX, so her usefulness outside synergy might not be that high?
Just my $0,02 anyway! :)
From now on, all the character's coming without EX weapons are build to be very good even without them. I honestly hope they throw us a curveball and make their regular EX avalible sooner then their EX+, but I don't know, they've been cool, but I don't know.
In case it wasn't clear, these two are on two different banners, so you need to be extra lucky to get them both maxed out.
That's kind of cool! At least there's a small comfort in knowing that if you save up those weapon tokens you can get those at some point, banner or no banner (unless those don't get added).
And yeah, Zack is coming first I believe, who is a priority to me, so if I luck out I'll have something to spend on Vayne and if not... well hopefully I'll have Zack MLB'd.
I thought about going for Vayne...but then I realized I just don't care for him that much as a character and thus it's an easy skip for me (also helps that I was able to get Seph's EX.) I'm saving for the big stuff in the fall now (like when Noel arrives), though I might throw some tickets on Fran's banner and try my luck for her weapons and Ashe's EX.
Also, as much as I love Lulu, she's an easy skip because I'd rather wait for her LC where her EX weapon will be available.
