My 5*s today were waifus.

YT was Lila #3.
Then bought the Universal bundle and the 4* ticket gave me (what I heard) was SO best girl, Rena, cleaning out the banner. And with 6 tickets still unused. Worth trying for 7*?

FINALLY MY 5* HEALER DROUGHT IS OVER

A step below apex healers, for now at least, and one above Tilith the gatekeeper of great healers.

As long as you are aware of her flaws, Gratz! (And stick a ribbon on her.)
---

Because I missed a few days I finally got to use that 10+1 guarantee.

Trance Terra is going to be another 7* mage I see. Quad casting here I come.
And I got Prishe. First one of her. She isn't particularly good, her enhancements that just came out aren't appealing, but that TMR is nice.
---

As expected Aeris becomes an apex healer. A bit odd, but not the coming of the next era.
---

Got Prishe from my 5* ticket, which was actually pretty nice. Should have BiS Randi now once I can get another 30% worth of moogles.

More incentive to get some 3* espers so I can bump his ATK even higher.
---

My guaranteed 10+1 was Onion Knight #2 and Dark Fina #2.

My first ever double rainbow.
---

YT ticket got me a Trance Terra.
---

Got Dark Fina #4. That's 14 STMRs now. At least hers looks pretty good. Most of the STMRs I have are pretty bad

Looks like I'm not in the doc anymore. I should probably add myself again later tonight, assuming I don't forget by then.
---

It's only rivaled by Sakura, but with perks.
---

14 SMTRs

my goodness

7* apparently confirmed for this Friday

So of the first batch, I can 7* Luneth, Ramza, Orlandeau, Lightning, SBDF and Dark Fina.

I assume Orlandeau is the most worthwhile of those?
---

Haven't had the chance to watch yet, but apparently the batch list is

Dark Fina
Seabreeze Dark Fina
Wilhelm
Dark Knight Cecil
Delita
Ramza
Orlandeau
Luneth
Marie
Lightning
Olive
Gilgamesh

Remember not to go for STMRs right away, until we get those new missions for having a certain number of 7* units.

The only outright iffy one is Luneth. Finas can chain magic, Lightning can chain with Tidus, Ramza can now pick 2x 60% debuffs and apply all before singing.

Orlandeau will have a notable powerboost now for him to 680% on DR.
---

All I get out of this batch is Oldmandeau and SBDF. Definitely going to do the first one, haven't even raised SBDF to 6*. Not sure that'll even be worth it.
---

Olive gets a boost to her lb with Sparky.

2 cooldowns.

LB to party.

Nuke with high fire/Lightning imperils at a cost.

====

As for me it's just Luneth, Delita, Gilgamesh, Dark Fina and Lightning.
---

For the first batch on my end it's...

Dark Fina (STMR ready)
Seabreeze Dark Fina (STMR ready)
Wilhelm
Dark Knight Cecil
Ramza (STMR ready)
Luneth
Marie
Olive
Gilgamesh (STMR ready)

Can't wait to see how ridiculous I can get Wilhelm.
---

Omega is coming too.

*looks forward to dummies just rushing in to die before they make a move*
---

I can do

Dark Fina
Delita
Orlandeau
Marie
Olive

But I dont have either Oldlandeau TMR even started yet, so I feel like hes off the table for now.
---

Orlandeau base TMR isn't even worth it, so I wouldn't really worry about that.
---

Yeah but dont 7*s get like huge buffs if they have their TMRs equipped?
---

They do, yeah. I think Orlandeau's is pretty good too. Has to be since his TMR is hot garbage.
---

Oh, didn't realize that. Hm.

Orlandeau's and Lightning's are worthwhile if you plan to use those units as 7*s.

Other units like Nyx is screwed whether you do or not. (Personally I will just sacrifice him for my Jake/lb OTKs.)
---

Thinking about it, now I'm wondering what to do for my friend unit. I've been running either of the Sakuras or Barb for the longest time, but now I don't know whether people will still want 6* units, even with the very limited 7* pool we're going to have.
---

Present your strongest useful option.

Same deal when we entered the 6* meta, and eventually chaining meta, with the differences luck matters more now+exp needed so it will take time before order is uh restored. (Just don't drop Lightning and similar until their chaining move is obtained.)
---

I generally share whatever I have that best fits the newest content (unless there's a request unit up), so that won't change much for me. Wilhelm must be 120's immediately though, because mustache.
---

Beat 3* Ifrit. That was fairly trivial with 200% Fire Resist Basch.
---

I really want to 7* my man Wilhelm. I doubt Ill have the exp or even the money to do it though :(

my current status of bold = can 7*, italics = have one.
i'm still thinking of doing Olive, Dark Fina, and Gilgamesh for my first three but i'm probably going to only be able to max out one of them off the bat. it's either Olive or Dark Fina. especially now with my second Trance Terra since DF can do a -120% imperial on dark (earth and wind are -60% from turn 2, Tornado and Quake otherwise) and TT has a move that builds up consecutively to 1400% and is dark element.
---

Got Balthier #3.

Kind of a weak group of 7*s for me. I have Lightning and Marie, and I don't think I'm going to evolve Marie unless I have Cactuars and gil to spare/

Probably gonna try for Wilhelm(seems I need to fetch his TMR now), D.Fina and Greg. Marie can wait for a bit and I still need Luneth's TMR.
---

Got a dupe CG Sakura off of the daily 1/2 half pull and the 5* Ex ticket got me Mediena (who?).

So I gotta ask, is it better to get the TMRs of both base units before fusing for the 7*?
---

Depends on unit and how much you will use the dupe's tmr.

It will only be able to feed from moogles if you don't get it beforehand.
---

Depends on whether or not the TMR is worth getting. You'll still get a moogle container for it, but you can't run that through the earth shrine so it's going to be Moogles only to get the TMR at that point.

For units like Lightning or Orlandeau, you don't need a TMR copy. If it's someone like Mediena or Dark Fina, you want both copies
---

Dark Fina
Seabreeze Dark Fina
Wilhelm
Dark Knight Cecil
Delita
Ramza
Orlandeau
Luneth
Marie
Lightning
Olive
Gilgamesh

Will hold off on Lightning as I can STMR her.

Orlandeau is good to go.

Olive, Gilgamesh, Luneth require the TMR farming.
---

Not that it matters for me, but why would people be holding off on getting STMRs? I'm clearly missing something here.
---

STMRs were introduced later because Alim screwed up, iirc.
---

And since Gumi copy and pastes...
---

5* ticket got me TG Cid #2.
I didn't awaken the first one since I was using Awakened Ace + A2 at the time, but I may make the switch when 7* is released, assuming 7* Orlandeau is good.

I believe JP got these new missions where you got UoC stubs for having x characters at 7*. It counts any currently in your inventory, but if they're gone from STMRing you don't get credit for them.
---

I feel like if I were to ever pull Gilgamesh, it would be after his TMR is useless. So I'll probably never see him until 2021 or something.
---

Technically you can get it from SMTR'ing but both need to be up to 7. That is, you don't just feed two more 5* units to your 7*; you get the extra 7* first, then eat the fodder unit. That's two separate ones and should count.
---

Read Memel0rds review for Rena.

Decided to use my 5* ticket.

Rena acquired.
---

>:(
---

Neat.
Rena is...actually not in a bad spot for me.
Sure, no dispel, but my tanks usually have a turn to deal with that.
Sure, no reraise, but I have Ankhs and Zarg.

My main team will probably be
tank/fry/Ragean/Nichol/Rena/friend flex.

Probably will swap rena out if I need an extra tank or finisher and need everyone else, though
---

Started working my way through all the story updates I missed so I can collect more Lapis to waste on the Star Ocean banner.

Almost to another 10+1.
---

I've skipped pretty much every limited time banner after last Halloween.

I don't have any units from:
Star Ocean
Far Cry (except Raid Summoned Leo)
King's Knight
Dragon Quest (except free Slimes)
Tomb Raider (except free Lara Croft)

I couldn't keep up the heavy pulling on these banners and they tended to be the reason why I was always out of Lapis and tickets.
---

I will 7 star wilhelm and Ramza no doubt.

I have enough to STMR both Lightning and Orlandeu but I'll probably just 7 star 2 orlandeu for chain madness and STMR lightning away once the missions come out.

I may 7 star olive as well as a finisher since I dont have a second luneth if she's in a good spot. The others I don't really care about though I can 7 star about 80% of the list.
