Im aware this one is a bit of a stretch
---

Have a Merry White Knight Christmas
---

How about...

"There's Noe-L in Brave Exvius!"
---

It took me 2 of my 5 10+1 tickets, 2 of my 5 5+1 tickets, and a total of 65 regular, 7 4*, and 10 regular EX tickets, but I finally got another rainbow, and it was my 7* White Knight Noel.

Luckily my stockpile is still girthy.
---

I dunno why I'm even doing this, but saving up multi and 5* tickets until they add some more cool units to the pool.
---

I think I'll be saving my tickets too, but I mostly just want the Christmas units to go away.
---

Kingdom Hearts this week, huh. Thats earlier than I was expecting.
---

Also apparently Sora and Cloud are nerfed for GL so lol.
---

Which is stupid after the knight.
---

The nerfs are weird too. Like the only nerf Cloud gets is 10 ATK off his STMR? Like why even bother at that point.
---

This week?

Better do as much content story content as possible to get lapis.

Can 10+1 and Random 5 star tickets net you these limited units while their banners are ongoing?
---

they should be able to
---

Either way, that's too many limited banners in a short span.
---

Just wait until we get Secret of Mana and Xenogears in the next month as well.
---

It had to be this way. Get people to spend on the limited Christmas banner, and then drop another limited banner that people were waiting for to force spending.
---

Although the Nier banner was cool, this huge slew of limited has diluted the value of them to me.

I was excited to 7* Christine, but just had no interest in the new Christmas units from the looks of my FL, neither did the others since they just WKN/Christine'd
---

I've just come to the conclusion that I am such a casual mobile gamer that I'm never really going to be "good" at this game. I still love it due to nostalgia, but I just don't really have the time to research and team build and much prefer to just use my strongest 5 and strongman content when I can.

I'm definitely more of an Idle Heroes, Almost A Hero, and Tap Titans 2 kind of guy.
---

Hail the competitive farming event FGO just gave us.

Also hail 1-3* units that can solo endgame bosses.
---

Limited units never had any real value. Especially in the 7 star life.
---

Excuse you, Viktor is the goat

He's been able to solo for me, with five level 1 bonus units, every LGD King Mog stage since he came out.

He can't die, but can also put up decent damage.
---

They have no value because limited units shoe horn you into trying to go for 4 of them if you want an STMR or at least 2 of them to make them useful. It's just a waste of time/resources since they are mainly just niche builds or someones favorite character. I have a 6 star 2B but I was never inclined to pull for a 7 star because I have a 7 star Hyoh and there would be no way I'd replace him for her in any fashion. I even have a 7 star Kurasame which is the highest DPS unit in the game for us right now and I still dont use him cause I know he has zero appeal to anyone and therefore is not on anyone's friend list.

It goes without saying that this is my personal opinion on limited units.
---

Limited units are hit-or-miss, but there definitely have been ones that are legit great (and ones coming up that are legit great).

That being said, pull what you want. Pretty much everyone that still posts here already has the unit suite needed to clear 95% of the content in this game.

You play Idle Heroes?! What server are you on? I'm on 582.
---

I feel like I play Idle Heroes given how many ads I get for the game on the FFBE reward wheel.

I actually play a variant of Idle Heroes called Zombie Strike, but I said Idle Heroes because I knew that was a bit more mainstream. I have been thinking of starting Idle Heroes though. I have been playing Almost A Hero for well over a year now, and that's definitely one of my favorite idle games.

If you do let me know! They do weekly server merges, so if we end up on servers that can communicate I can send you a spot in my guild.

Them being upfront about buffing the units later on is at least a lot more than what they used to do.

NA's getting better at that stuff.

Bummer! I don't understand how it assigns servers or anything like that from the beginning at least. I know my guild does guild war with people between 580 and 589 since it shows the servers.

You should be able to search for a specific server if you're just starting out since you won't lose progress. If you go to settings and click the one that looks like a monitor (second from the bottom) it should have a list of servers. You can scroll through and pick the one you want. I was able to go all the way down to server 1 by scrolling down to the bottom. Is that the area you were looking in?
---

Yeah, that's what I did. Highest server I could pick was 464.
---

Huh, thats really bizarre!
---

Should have figured.

Reberta 4# from day 28.
---

KH Cloud
Lulu 7*
Hyoh
Lilah
Machina
Livid Shantotto
Emperor 7*

Gotta scrounge up 5.5k somehow.

Sora off a 4 star ticket.

Back to back Soras off of 4 star tickets.

Guess I'll aim for KH Cloud

Got KH Cloud #2 after 10 more 4* tickets, right I'm done pulling.

o_o

That was from 3 steps of the first lap

2 5 star tickets
2 10+1 tickets
2 5+1 tickets
14 4* tickets

So I was expecting to see some 5* units show up, but Hyoh will have to be on the backburner, at least we have the guaranteed 10+1 soon.

Not sure who will be my main DPS units with 2B/KH Cloud/Sora around.

I am however not going to touch STMR land with the KH units.
---

Free 10+1 was junk, 5* ticket was Tidus #2.


---

1 KH Cloud, 1 sora from my 10

2nd Citra from my ex
---

Yuna #3 from 10+1, CG Lasswell from the ticket. Works for me.
---

Nothing from the 10+1, SBDF #4 from the 5* EX.
---

Free 10+1: nothing
First step on step-up: nothing
First ticket thrown at the banner: Sora

Good start.
---

Free 10+1: nothing
5* ticket: Lunera #2. Finally, something that isn't Nyx.
---

Realized that I had 2 of those 5* tickets

Ticket #1: Beatrix
Ticket #2: Malphasie
---

So uh any TMRs I should be aiming for from the batch of 5s I got?

I heard KH Cloud's TMR is identical to Marshal Gloves.

Hyoh's clothes seem decent.

Not sure about Machinas.

I got one Sora from tickets. Guess I'm doing that step up after all.

Hyoh's clothes are great. Even if you can't use the 30% great sword bonus, (which I assume would be nice on that Cloud) they're still the highest atk clothes in the game outside of STMRs (also higher than any armor or robe).

Also, don't forget about Cloud/Sora moogles from the raid summon. Edit: Assuming they're in there. The wiki says they are, but I haven't pulled any.
---

They are, guess I'll build a DW set for Sora.
