Blind is freaking annoying and overpowered if you don't have spell equipped to remove it...

And takes forever to wears off.

Something like over 5/6 turns. My char couldnt land a single hit when he got blinded just now.

Side note!!! im looking to spend my magicite, i was gonna buy some orbs to get some abilities.. still newish only thing ive added to my arsenal is boost and blade bash and blinda. anything specific thats real useful and i can buy the orbs for? only sitting on about 4k magicite and im a little confused when it ends.

The abilities i use the most are: all spellblades to hit mastery conditions without relying on mages job, also a correct boosted spellblade will deal 9999 lv30+ elite modes. Retaliate, aside combo, makes trivial powerleveling a single char: use it solo in a daily dungeon, possibly with realm synergy, hit retaliate and easily solo hard battle without worryin too much with heals. When i capped cloud lv, in the ff7 daily dungeon, i was neting 9k exp per 10 staminas, while grabbing the material.

Double cuts as much as you can.

Defense/power break also are great options.

Cure goes without saying.

Jump if you use Kain.

oh chizz can you play with less then 5? that powerlevel trick is spiffy. yeah im trying to use Tyro and rhydia as mages but it seems "meh" im more of a hack and slash type, so those spellblades sound nice, i actually just saw them earlier, never saw the other tab lol

I'd much rather use a whole party of core jobs. I wish they weren't so weak.

yeah i feel like i have to keep the guy you start with cause hes like the "lead" but his stats are all mediocre so i'm gonnaswitch him out and catch someone else up i think

the main character is still really good because he can equip any weapon or ability

but yeah his stats are pretty bad

Well as for them ignoring FFXI and FF14.. Thats a good reason to get more people talking about it. HOWEVER.. I do wonder if the US version is limited to ONLY what gets developed in the JP release... which means we would never see FFXI or so till AFTER all the characters that US release doesnt have yet. Which is... quite long a list. So get those feedback in. I already submitted I would pay to see those unlocks...



Now for a side question I have been wondering about. When you "hone" abilities, does this increase their power any or is it just for usage?

Just usage. And honing costs more than creating an ability.

Kinda sucks, but i think at this point in English version, you dont need too much honing, maybe just a few situational abilities/magic. Im 7-8 stages to clear all elites and so far, abilities are just necessary to bosses. The majority dies fast if you use spellblade and boost/def break. There are some that are still pretty challenging: Forza and Magissa, and Vargas where maybe you gonna need some extras because they have high hp.Forza in particular, the one i had the most problem, requires landing sleep, but the accuracy is pretty low, requiring you to cast multiples sleeps, but not sure if need to hone sleep. I bought some physical ability to sleep, though.

I've been learning from you guys, but doing a lot on my own too. I like how, although there are neat tricks and strategies that can help you, there are more than one way to finish a dungeon. It really depends on your playstyle, preference, and available equipment. I just beefed cecil Pld up with great defense and stacked a couple curas and a 4 star mace, and he's my main healer, along with rampart. Has got me mastery in a few battlefield, or at least helped. I like how tyro is versatile too. I give him a 4 star axe he does great with dark attack and even death blow.

Sometimes I use both terra and rydia for a but more fire power. It's fun getting creative, and it's not always about just freaking the highest damage and easy moding through. I think it's really fun to beat a dungeon with under leveled character too, particularly with synergy.

I'm typing on a phone, sorry for typos

My google fu had difficulty turning this up; is there a list anywhere of -all- the characters currently availible in the Japanese version and how to obtain them? I can see the above list for the "event" characters, but I assume that there are also some you get for doing some of the FF3 or FF8 clears? (The way you get Red Mage at the end of.. um.. wherever I got him?)

There are a few sources to check ffrk info, but i dont think any of them a definitive source. The sites doesnt seems so complete and the reddit has the most activity but its too messed due to how popular ffrk reddit is, so much garbage pops there:

http://www.reddit.com/r/FFRecordKeeper/

http://chrysaliswiki.com/people:characters-in-record-keeper

http://ffrk.kongbakpao.com/characters/character-ranking/

https://ffrkstrategy.gamematome.jp/game/951/wiki/Home

https://ffrk攻略.gamematome.jp/game/780/wiki/トップページ

If a char doesnt belong to an event, he should appear while completing the story dungeons.

RDM in particular, is obtained in the very last classic dungeon available.

If you didnt complete all classic dungeons, i sugest stopping all you doing to farm them, for 2 reasons:

Completing regular dungeons will net stamina shards, and when you have 5/5, your stamina bar is filled to 100%, allowing you to continuosly play without too many waiting time;

And having capped stamina allow you to have full sleeping nights (lol). Joking aside, it allow more efficient playtime without wasting too much stamina.

All i want is Buster Sword.

I wont have it, though.

I was wondering Terra as a nuker, but without relic i dont think she can pull ahead of Rydia, though she cant use black magic 4*+. I also have relic Aeris, that have strong magic but no access to black magic 4*+. In magic aspect, Relic Terra is a godsend.

Is this game worth my time when I'll refuse to spend a single cent on it? I generally hate FTP games because they inherently reward people for spending money instead of actually playing.

Yes, it's worth it. Try to save up 50 Mythril whenever possible, if you can be patient enough. The only downside later in the game is the ridiculous stamina costs to do things, and the slow-ish rate of stamina replenishment. But I guess that helps the longevity of the game so it doesn't get stale.

That makes a lot of sense, and worst case, I just delete it. :D I'll give it a try, at least that'll give me my FF fix when I'm not at home.

Thanks. :D

I believe actually this game becomes a lot more enjoyable if you dont pay.

Money in this game is just used for:
A) restoring stamina or party conditions: it costs 1$ and is situational. Sometimes can come in handy (for example to finish a dungeon before deadline);

B) expand inventory: situational;

C) using "gacha" to have relics: optional. But its also the most expensive usage of cash.

All of them can be done with "mythril", thats like a special currency, but in limited and fixed quantity. You cant create mythril, but you can earn some amount while playing.

Without money, the amount of relics you can have will be limited (relying in just mythril). So that force you to use a lot more preparation and farming. With relics you can just roll all content but 2 stages, without relics you gonna have to farm low level gear and combine them for stronger version, and will need to have diferent sets for each world to benefit from bonuses. But thats all: without cash you just will need to have more farming, more gear and take more time to complete. There are post on reddit of no relic challenges, thats people who completed all current content without a single high lv gear.

So, do other people focus on one set or alternate? I occasionally grab whoever is the lowest level and try and level them up so that the disparity between levels is not too great...


I do find it interesting that Tyro is up to level 49 and I still don't have enough orbs to make 3 star abilities...

I guess if you have 5*, the difference is enough so you can just keep the same set.

But if no, the synergy should be necessary against hard foes, so the best practice would be farming 2* gear for most realms (as just IV and VI have enough challenging content to care) and combine them to 2*++. It takes some time due that most 2* drops from dungeon bosses. Black cowl is the only one with 3*. Events helps woth that. Aeris event had 3 protect vest with 2*. Terra has 3 green beret 2* iirc. Daily dungeon from weapon and armor material drops mythril gear and dagger from fodders (both 2*), so i guess the best starting point. Plus reward drops like diamond helmet.

So... in the JP version they gave Cloud another limit break. His new level cap is 80.

Meaning right now, Cloud is the best character in the game by a wide margin >_<;;
