Well, I suppose the only interesting addition here is the gold mog pell, which previously wasn't obtainable anymore. Granted it isn't all that useful, save if you need a ton of points in something fast, but otherwise it gives hope they might someday let us have a rainbow.

Bronze, silver and gold have dropped from

300 / 900 / 1300
300 / 750 / 1300
250 / 700 / 1200
160 / 480 / 720

Talk about unpopular, wow. The amounts are half what they started at.

~200 Alexandrite demoted from gold tier into silver tier

Not necessarily unpopular, this round is obviously a bonus that was earned by the players, so SE decided not to force players to grind as long this time around as previous iterations, but to be able to earn rewards in a more relaxed manner. Tracks with statements they've made regarding making content and campaigns more casual friendly and easier to complete in a given timeframe.

Also this round is only 2 weeks, seems like the prior rounds were longer.

Lmao I just saw that the ’bout is as if you used 1 free Ambu seal / day.


Might help fresh returning people. But my first thought was ‘I don’t care’. If I’m going to form for Ambu V1 VD, it’s not just for a single fight then disband.

It's the one seal per difficulty. So you do a vd d and n then you can do your normal vd seals if you want to

But it's more newbs and returners yeah. One day of v2 ve e n d vd and v1 ve all sealed is the whole +2 probably and a second day will get a kaja weapon

Good to stockpile REMA currencies for everyone too.

Returnees and people that lack REMAs should take advantage of easy Ambu months + campaigns like this one.

Bronze still giving 6x Abyssea drops in Kupon form, Silver now giving Ridill/Joyeuse/silly Shadow Lord helmet from Fiat Lux, I have zero complaints about this from both a functional standpoint and a meme standpoint.

(hope the objectives are slightly less awful this time in terms of how they rotate/how they're selected/what's in the pool...)

I seals, Deeds, and stop

But 720 for gold is prettttty low, so.... it's kinda worth now. That's the old silver level.

That's worth getting your hopes up on 3 cases of jse earrings ain't it.

Ridill for sure, cuz I don't have one yet and I really dont wanna do that grind by hand for the 1% drop rate.

Will finally complete my set of red proc weapons for my war, ridill is a marginal upgrade over joytoy but its the principle of it really, it always was a small hole in my arsenal I wanted to eventually fill in.

Edit: Oh wait nevermind I have to choose between ridill or 100 deeds, goddamnit I have to choose deeds instead.

Ridill is mule sendable, so do both. It's one of those trophies you don't miss out on.

Relatively low effort you can even do it on level 1, so long as you got carries

Do I want ridill bad enough to spend a couple dollars making a mule for it... hmm.

I think maybe the answer is yes.

It's no rainbow pell, but still happy to see some unobtainable stuff coming back, even in bits and pieces like this.

(I mean technically Fiat Lux still exists in game but good luck getting it unlocked, even during campaign.)

It's quite simple to unlock fiat lux solo, just requires effort

Spend all saturday crushing beau xarc bails and the keep. Just back and forth all day killing generals and smashing pillars.
