I'm gonna magically need more mythril or more money..

this, except i don't need money so much as the will to spend it on this. or i guess a nice big google play card would do.
---

Tifa's USB2 still should be there since it makes it's debut on that banner.

I hope the speculation over Orlandeu's USB being removed doesn't come true since it wasn't mentioned on banner 1.
---

people over on the FFRK board have speculated that TGC USB could be replaced by DK Cecil OSB, since it was finally translated and that'd be the only place to put it. hopefully it was only translated to put in the gem select banner.
---

For me that would actually be an improvement, but for anyone who doesn't have TGC USB replacing it with an OSB is a kick in the nuts.
---

I have TGC USB, but I also have Decil AOSB, so his OSB wouldn't be worthwhile either.

I'm personally hoping for Beatrix USB or possibly Marche USB.
---

I don't have Orlandeau's USB and this is the banner I hope I get it on, or at least was hoping. It's be silly to take it off since this banner is supposed to be the anti-Siren and Hades banner but Dena is Dena... though even if it gets replaced by something worse it's still worth pulling for the chains and Tyro/Elara USBs.

grats Nick! always nice to finally get something like that, especially for a character you really like.

Thanks!

Is the great feeling all time!

FF4's up

1/3 Kain OSB dupe

I guess more *6 fire resistant armor is okay.
---

1/3 Golbez BSB dupe

I guess a dupe is to be expected considering how stacked I am for FFIV relics.
---

1/3 Ursula LMR Dupe

Why am I getting so many LMRs.

Unless I get something really nice for the last 3 pulls this is going to be a pretty dubious use for the 75 Mythril. Even moreso than the last parade. So far the winners are

Estinien USB (my first and only 6* so far-- oh wait I got Vaan's OSB so I guess I got two)
Ovelia LMR
Yuna LMR (Summoning)
Garnet BSB (Lightning boost magic dagger is useful even if it's a dupe)
Seph SSB (Entirely for Dark Boost bracer)

I mean in terms of number of usable items it's not bad, but there's not much that's actually exciting here.

C'mon Warrior of Light chain.
---

Tellah BSB
Rosa SSB

My first 2/3 of the Realm Parade. Tellah's is a Sheepsong-type, so maybe useful if I could field a mage team in IV, which I can't.
---

Golbez SSB
---

1/3 Rubicante BSB
---

Kain USB.

I like Kain so I am ok with this.
---

Golbez SSB

Got the same relic
---

Question: If you have like, no darkness soul breaks (I have a shadow USB!) what's a good team to do the 180 bravery mote thing? Just pUSB with OK and throw non-elemental stuff at it?
---

RoP and Lucky Healing

Lenna USB
Fusoya SSB (dupe)
Penelo SSB
Aerith BSB (dupe)

I have a ton of FFV relics but didn't have any buffs or medica. Lenna just killed two birds with one stone (well one and a half birds technically but still). Healing draw was a bust.
---

Got 2 this time

Tellah LMR
Edge BSB

Hmm, not bad
---

Rydia USB? Wasn't ready for that lol
---

There is some guaranteed 8/8 draw coming.

One 6* and the other seven are at least a Super?
---

Fest banners have been discovered

https://www.reddit.com/r/FFRecordKeeper/comments/8stevk/relic_discussion_seasonal_summer_sun_festival/

Man Banner 1 got fucked over hard, well on the BSBs at least. Larsa, Raines and Vanille? Seriously? Almost everyone has those already since they're popular picks in the selections. Other than Locke replacing Bartz' relics seems like everything is mostly the same as Japan, but looks like Dena knew Banner 1 was going to be the most popular and are straight up trolling people with those replacements.
---

I'm the weird guy who prefers the Banner 1 changes, but I also wasn't planning on drawing on Banner 1 before or after so it kinda makes sense that I wouldn't be trolled to begin with.
---

I don't really care about the changes to b1, the only removed thing I would have liked is Celes BSB2, but Beatrix BSB2 is nice.

B2 removing Chicken Knife really sucks, I was looking forward to finally getting it. At least they kept the Terra stuff and it's still the only banner where I don't have a dupe among the 6*.

B5 is very slightly worse (Maria and Relm BSBs are both dupes), but eh.
---

Going all in on 1

or 3
---

RoP: Aria burst

Lucky: 2/11 - Tifa BSB, WoL BSB (dupe)

Meh.
---

FF3 Ignis BSB1, at least it's new...

3/11 on Lucky

Steiner BSB Dupe
Umaro BSB Dupe
Strago BSB

Two rosetta stones and a water boosting armor for mages, bleh.
---

1/3 Onion Knight SSB dupe - time for a +++
1/11 Paine USB - feeling pretty good about that X torment now
---

1/3 Onion Knight OSB Dupe
2/11 Basch USB Dupe and Garland BSB1

Sigh. So deflating to get 2 6* and them to be worthless
---

Crystal Tower mastered.

IMO Dainsleif>Bahamut>Tiamat Eliminator>Guardian

I forgot how stupid fast and strong Dainsleif is, as well as how frequently it counters. So many resets because it killed someone early, the fight didn't really start until Selphie could get her ultra off and keep everyone safe with a last stand. Stalled for a meter a bit in a first phase as well so I could soul breaks to prevent counters.

Everything Bahamut does is piercing and he constant aoes but his attacks are mostly magical so Vaan and Rosa were heros in this fight.

Tiamat wasn't so bad, Sazh's astra prevent slows and Raines and Kuja's DPS made short work of him.

Guardian was cake with affliction break and Larsa preventing confuse, only threatening thing he has besides that is his tornado that reduces characters to 1 HP but an instant heal USB should take care of that.
---

3/11

Seph BSB (dupe, already have an 8*)
Ayame BSB (dupe)

TIDUS USB!!!

Huuuuge fan of that
---

So has anyone gotten any relics from the infuse draw that didn't have an infuse

People were theorizing only the guaranteed one had infuse but it's looking like all the relics drawn from it do?

Which, not important here but may influence whether I draw on the OSB banner and makes me more hyped for the USB banner
---

RoP and Lucky infuse

Arc SSB (I think this is one of few still good ones, the instant heal with phys blink)
Ricard BSB
Kefka BSB

First en-poison, and another addition to a stacked wind collection

Beat my first Torment! FFII D200 down with CM. Even with god wall those Gigas hit hard. Having Guy imperil earth and Maria BSB was key. I attempted FFI D200 CM yesterday and got smashed, but that's what happens when I only have two relevant SBs (Echo and Sarah BSB).
---

I'm pretty sure we're on track for what JP got. There is a chance they'll change the next 2 to be OSB/USB only, but I'm waiting to see what actually happens before I decide to pull.

For whatever reason it sounds like the first banner was all infuse relics (in Japan) but the other two were like you describe.

I definitely won't draw on the OSB banner... even if it is OSB only, 2 or 3 random OSBs still isn't worth 25 mythril.
---

How you guys getting past this never ending Apocalypse Megaflare?
---

Nevermind. I ended up abusing the hell out of Last Stand by having Gladious with Pep Talking along with Guardian Mog and I had Yshtola use Asylum while Auron, Wakka, and Gladious fought. I only got an expert but frankly idk how I am supposed to deal more damage and stay alive.
---

Got a Rosetta Stone (i.e. my 4th Arc robe) on the III draw.
The first LD was, again, an 1/11: Gaff BSB.
---

Aria SSB

and on the LD

2/11

Seph USB dupe of a dupe
Some fist BSB, i dunno
---

FF2 is up

Minwu USB1, best thing so far.

OSB banner I'm holding off of.
---

Gordon's USB. Just my second USB of the parade. Doesn't seem that great, but it's a USB and I assume it'll be useful when II torment comes along.
---

1/3 Minwu USB2.

first 6* since i got 3 in a row to start. and that's now my 4th ability double USB. rip my orbs -_-
---

Rofl.

Pulled on the overstrike. Got an earth overstrike from 15 but...

I got tidus' lmr

I am such a lucky bitch

Nice, that was the best item on the banner (since I already have Maria's USB).

I'm at 3 ability double USBs (Orlandu, Maria, and Celes) and hoping to pick up Tifa's and (especially) Vivi's soon.
---

1/3 Leila Burst

Looks like I'm the only one that didn't get an ultra! (Granted I wouldn't have wanted 2/3 of those Ultras cause I already have them. Very Jealous of Minwu USB2 though)

All things considered a burst for Leila is better than most things I could've drawn though. I like Leila. Even if the relic is very dated.
---

1/11 .... THANKS LUCKY DRAW

.... dupe

Orlandu... sure whatever
---

Firion LM
---

I got the Minwu USB but its attacking.
---

I got Maria's USB

I'm so happy, I can barely put it into words. Her BSB has served me so well over the years, and now I have the ridiculously strong upgrade.

I'm skipping the OSB draw.
---

1/11 Zidane OSB on the lucky. More FF9 synergy at least and it's not a dupe.

1/3 Maria USB!!!

Well, that makes up for the lucky!! Only the second 6* on RoP, but a damn great one!
---

Man. 4/8 people who drew in here getting one of the two relics I wanted in here makes me more put out than usual

How does it feel Nick to be one of the two who didn't get a 6 star on the FF2 Parade.
