I made some good progress today. I beat the Crisis Core story mode missions, grinded Ifrit enough to get 200 sword parts for Zack's ifrit sword and then got the 5 star drop after many tries in the hard mode fight (I think it's more likely to drop when you get higher score ranks?). I guess it was a Zack day.

the other main thing I did was materia grinding. I think EC is super well made for what it is, but if there was one complaint I had it'd be about trying to navigate Materia menus. just trying to see what materia is what and trying to sort and filter them is super cumbersome, but I think I have 3 of each element in -ra form now, finally. I don't yet have 3 each of the spell and the "blow" attacks yet so I might work on those. right now I'm trying to decide on if I should prioritize that or trying to get some of these above level 5, because once you get past 7 or so, it's a real grind. grinding out synthesis parts also kinda sucks but I used the co-op very hard fights for those where I could to make things easier.

I'm curious to see what the next wave of content is going to be in 3ish hours. we'll get new co-op fights and hopefully another twist on the event, since I think most people are done farming the event for items.
