In my opinion, none of the units that are in the current Unit of choice selection are viable.Any suggestions on which free GL unit I should pick? I already have:
4x Barbariccia
Olive
2x Zargabaath
Oh shit, he's back (on our lists)
So, ban wave 1 406 days ago and ban wave 2 202 days ago :P
I know my advice was posted but to reiterate Rixa and Norn's posts:
Wait for a bit before using it.
I would not use it before Christmas (old) banner is gone. Old banner should have WKNoel / Kryla / Christine. Obviously that banner is not yet here either. So don't use ticket for few weeks. You never know what you pull during christmas banner time.
31st of January.
Unless you're very certain who you want, sit on the tickets until we see the old Christmas 7* units.
See that's just it I am at 1 loren, 1 CG Lid, 1 Kryla and 1 2B. I need something to bridge this Breaker gap.Yeah I have 1 Christine 1 GLS and 1 Chow if I had a kryla I'd have considered her and been patient to do so, but I intend to pull for Golbaeza (stole this from Norn on discord a good while back XD) 5* so if and when I'm shopping for mage DPS it'll be a matter of contention between the nuChaos Wave chainers like Golbez Sol and nuExdeath.
I can see Kryla being Mage Loren or Mage Auron (or even a bridge between bthe two but in mage flavor) but with more imperil support tbh but it's pure conjecture at this point, but assuming that was in any way true I have 7* Loren and have a 7* ready Lid for my breaker role I do intend to try for her TMR via EX Tix so I'm holding off on using all these free tickets like 10+1 and such
Don't you have normal UoC tickets for Zarg?I *really* want to UoC a Zargabaath for his 7* (I don't have two CG Nichols), but I'll wait until I see what's going on with Christmas units before then. No need to rush it! Cleared all trials, after all.
Maybe I'll try and pull a Kryla with normal tickets. Heaven knows I have enough of them.
I do, but I'd rather save them for future stuff like Auron/Jecht/Akstar. I don't think Zarg is worth using 10 normal UoC.

Unless Kryla is completely broken to the point of it being a moral imperitive to get her to 7* I am likely going to use my choice tickets on Chow.

I just caved in and got my 2nd Ang with the fan festa tickets.
Probably not, in both cases.I'm kinda sad Nichol didn't get his 7* despite the infos about it getting updated in game. Now it'll make Gumi wait for after Yuraisha.
Those awakening update are dragging far too long, it's our 5th batch already and it seems like we'll have to wait 2 more (12 characters left) for everyone to finally access their 7*.
Yeah I hope, Cloud really took a long time to be 7*, I guess we'll have 2 banners for the FF VII event.
At the very least I'd wait to see how Christine turns out. It's also likely that when we get the mixer we'll eventually get prisms for the limited units so you might be able to get seconds that way; as those prisms are likely far off I'd consider that more useful for the GLS stmr than a second Christine/D.Rain as those are likely to be more impactful now than later.Well I have three GLS, should I get a fourth one with the ticket and get her STMR or wait for Christine and make her a 7* or get second D. Rain to get his 7* (Could be my first provoke tank), decisions... decisions...
.n_n.
Lid's a pretty good breaker at 6*. 50% aoe breaks for atk/mag and def/spr, 60% single target individual breaks, and her limit break when leveled is an aoe 70% all break. Unlike Loren the break on her LB scales with it's level, also I don't think Lid even at 7* has a lot of utility outside of breaks; but she's great at it.Pulled a Heavenly Technician Lid the other day and I also got two Citras as my last two rainbows. Is her 7* any good? How about Lid?
I need a SPR tank so I might pull for a Chow with the 7* tickets. I need dupes for Aranea, Lulu, and Duke.
The Katy Perry song is dope.
Mmm... didn't know about the prism, then I will see how Christine turns out.Wow, I threw 5 tickets at the awakening banner and got my second Yuna; I was totally prepared for that to be my 8th Duke or something. I guess Katy Perry wasn't fated to be my 7* summoner; will probably still level her though.
With nothing but the Katy Perry event and Item world I guess this will be a fairly quiet week.

Only unit to get buffs sufficient enough to really matter - as in to cause them to be used by anyone save character loyalists or people with no better option - was Mercenary Ramza. I don't know why anyone would still hold out hope for physical damagers to get some sort of boost when people on the (massively unnecessary) chainer treadmill are paying the bills.
Why set yourself up for disappointment? You'll get usable versions of these units... when the CG ones release in GL sometime in 2020.
All of which is exactly why he's not going to be getting much of anything early. We don't even have Beatrix and Eiko's enhancements and cats are out here hoping for even a partial set of enhancements that released five months after that in JP to come out potentially as early as next week?Sephiroth's ability enhancement package actually does catapult him into fully usable territory and make him a viable competitor to the next tier of god chainers, though. Like Merc Ramza, he's one of the very few units who actually gets rescued from the scrap heap rather than just being completely thrown away after powercreep hits him.

Just trying to counsel some reasonable expectations here. I'll be here for my serving of crow if it happens but c'mon.
Pull for Folka. We're not going to have any content that requires a 7* healer for a while yet; definitely not until after Folka anyway. 6* Fina still does the majority of what 7* Fina does.I have no 7* healer yet. What should I do?
A) Pull a lot Monday try to get a second CG Fina
B) Make Yuna into 7* and use her.
C) Pull for Folka a lots.
D) Wait for Aerith.
I use 6* CG Fina right now.
