Squall fire Arcane and fire Glint from realm draw. I don't even know what my fire team should be anymore since all of my spell blades are rad. I guess I have to default to Sora and Butz because they're woke.
I have Terra AASB and I was wondering if bringing her with Meltdown would be worth it? Without en-earth I feel like it could fall short.
I had one pull for this banner since I wanted some holy magic help. Only 2/11 but hard to see how it could have turned out better.
it feels like my order for magicite is totally wacked..
i finished hecatoncheir (sub 30), Quetz, KB, Geo (sub 30) and Madeen. I killed all these 8 times except madeen (twice).
Should i continue to farm madeen then or should i back track back to famfrit and continue the elemental circle?
Imo, the best combinations are double atk boon and double mag boon. You can get Atk/Mag boon from Syldra/Typhoon. If you can't beat them, the 4* version of the skills are fine too.what is abilities is suggested for madeen to inherit? I can consistently kill madeen at about 40s. I only fail if i mistime phantom magicite summon.

What I'm building is one Phoenix with Blade+Spell ward, and those two Madeens, so I'll always have at least one ward of each type, one HP boon, and 2 boons of the relevant stat on top of Surging Power.
I'm still banging my head against Ark, even after getting lucky on the Type-0 banner and picking up Rem's AASB. He keeps getting me with that enrage auto-kill when I take too long in the last phase. There's no rush but it's my last 5* Magicite to figure out. I feel like I have the tools, just need to put it together.

Nirran:
What 5* abilities you'll craft ultimately depends on what character relics you have. Most of them are good, but if you have, say, good relics for Bartz, you'll want to prioritize getting 5* (and eventually 6*) spellblades first; if you have something good for Vivi, you'll want to craft the chain-ga spells sooner rather than later, etc. But if you're now starting, Full Break is good to craft, though make sure you have someone with Support 5 who can use it (Tyro if no one else).
List your relics and we'll be in a better position to advise you.
As for chains, yes, they're extremely important for end game. But what constitutes "end game" keeps changing, so the content you would really have wanted a chain for last year can be beaten without a chain this year, depending on what other relics you have. So I wouldn't worry about chains for the time being. They're not "necessary" for any fight below 5* magicite level.
If all else fails, we should be getting free chains at a rate of one per month eventually, starting from late July with Lightning chain for Reno. They're not as as strong as gacha chains, but any chain will be better than none.
ccbfan:
If your 5* clear team uses a bunch of entrusts and multiple SBs per character, you're not going to be able to auto it. Auto is really only for fights were you drop chain and spam abilities for the most part.
Nirran:
Hmm. Let's see.
- Reno USB is good (note: he has two - which is it?) and Reno can be used in both physical and magic teams. You're going to want Chain Thundaga if you're using him for magic and Tempest Snipe if using him in a physical team.
- Kuja USB (also has two, which is it?) and his Legend Materia Relic (LMR) are both great. That means you're going to want 4* Memento Mori and 5* Dark Zone. Note that CoD w/ USB can also use this. If you want to run them both (note that CoD's USB boost party magic and resistance, so she will make Kuja's attacks do more damage) and you don't want to make duplicate 5* abilities, make 5* Dire Heal.
On a related note, I recommend you pick Cid Raines BSSB (Metamorphosis Claw) from a later Acolyte Archive volume when you get the chance. It will work well with Kuja and CoD for a dark magic team, and is surprisingly futureproof - I use Raines in my 35 second 5* magicite teams for magic Holy and magic Dark. You won't even need to run him with any abilities other than Memento Mori and Wrath. He can also function perfectly well in a physical team since he's self sufficient.
- Faris: I'm assuming this is Pirate Princess, since it's the only USB of Faris (she has 3) that comes from a weapon. This generally good, but for debuffing and stacking imperils. You can make Dash and Slash for her to use offensively, BUT she's probably better with just 4* Wrath since she's really more support. Also, if you haven't crafted it, make 5* Entrust. Characters with Suppot 5 like Faris can use
- Cloud: Which BSSB does he have? If it's his first one, Fenrir Overdrive, that's basically useless. If it's his second one, Cloud Cycle, that's much better and makes Cloud worth using. If you don't have the latter, you can pick it from one of the later Acolyte Archive volumes. Cloud with BSSB2 + AOSB is a good unit (with busted potential if you get his USB1, Ultra Cross Slash), and you'll want Raging Quadstrike for him, but note you'll have to complete his 4* record spheres to give him access to Spellblade 5 first.
By the way, if you weren't aware, your best healer is currently Ovelia with her USB. But if you need healing over a long period of time or you cure hones aren't very high, Vanille with her BSSB will be really good for you. Vanille BSSB is the only healer BSSB which is Instance Cast (IC). She can also double as DPS, since her BSSB command 1 is a free 2-Hit Holy attack that debuffs enemy RES! It does surprising damage, and also works well in a mage team!
WTF. I had this post done yesterday and I could have sworn I posted it. Bah. Anyway:
Nirran:
Ah. That's Reno USB1. Doesn't matter, both are good.
That's Kuja USB1. Also doesn't really matter since both also good.
Oh crap, I forgot that Faris has four USBs, not three. That would be her 4th one, which is DPS-based. Well, you'll definitely want Dash & Slash for her then.
You have Cloud Cycle, excellent. As you've no doubt noticed, BSSB2 -> AOSB is fantastic. And that's only a small fraction of the devastation that Cloud can unleash, but you're missing the primary ingredient for that (for now anyway; you'll have means of definitely getting it later).
As yes, Ovelia USB with 100% Res boost and Last Stand (Guts) will serve you well. I only suggested Vanille in case you found your healer running out of heals and needed more healing over time.
