What will consistent crystal income look like, you think? 50 for the dailies, 100 for the weekly, and about 800 onetime bonuses when an event like Watermelon Bash rolls around? Plus whatever is on the login calendar?
We get daily crystals, but the daily crystal income is so little. We have all these game modes though. 😅 Hopefully there will be a monthly reset or something for the dungeons so that we get more crystals / passes. Same with co-op, like we could get crystals for partying with ~30 different people per month. Even Honkai Star Rail has a better monthly income currently than this game. It'd be pretty damn terrible if the game had worse income than a Hoyoverse game. It hasn't been out for long so I'll be patient. The game is admittedly so much fun without the gacha. But it's gonna suck to wait 3 months or so before being able to guarantee a character weapon or gear. Assuming you're unlucky with the chocobo stamps, you need enough for 12 multi-pulls to guarantee both weapon and gear. I don't see that happening any time soon for f2p with the income being the way it is. Anyway, awesome video. I was stuck so I needed this video. There's a lot to do so, it was fun, but definitely kinda overwhelming. 😄
Nojima stated in Crisis Core Ultimania that Tidus was Zack’s inspiration in personality. He is the original design what Cloud was going to look like in the first place.
My 3 main characters are level 42, 40, and 40 and my gear is pretty decent. I have level 70 weapons (murasame boosted 3x and one other weapon boosted once) in everyone's main and sub slots and an average of level 40s in all the 3 other sub slots. My skill tree is all caught up all the way to the level 45 lock and my materia is leveled up a bit but my power score is only hovering a bit over 70k which to me feels a bit low. I am seeing some people having gear that looks pretty equal to mine and are lower level and are above 80k. I'm not sure if there's something I'm missing here.
sub-weapon and most likely materia substats is what's pushing the power & HP gives the most CP so don't always look at cp as the deciding factor on where you are
@PayneBlade yea im really trying to keep the materia that has good sub stats now and hopefully eventually get the crisis dungeon materia. Aerith is the only one that doesn't have a 5 star sub weapon so that may be knocking me down a bit but shouldn't be too much. I'll hold off until another banner though since I pretty much have everything else I want and every body else has 2 weapons but her Fairy Tale is too hard to give up plus I invested a ton of stat boosts into her. I cleared all of story and the event so I'm not in any rush.
As a F2P why is the beach parasol not a god tear weapon? I have 4 white stars on it (the last co-op mission is beyond me) so if I level it to 90 its stats are Patt 370 Matt 380 Heal 170 ish - Masemune ordinary 5 star only has 245 Patt. What am I not understanding?
Many reasons. The weapon is all over the place. It's an okay sub weapons because it offers survival r abilities in hp boost and mdef boost and then as a main weapon it has survival r abilities with spt materia that has both magic and physical with atk boost and then just magic. So it isn't an optimal weapon. So it would have been much better if it did r ability with magic atk up and then spt was all magic atk up cause it's a magic dmg weapon. Take into account murasame since you compared. It's a physical thunder which means it scales off p atk. All 3 materia are all physical dmg +20% (no mixture with magic which halves it) and then it's r abilities increase physical and thunder. Making it the perfect mix for this weapon. Don't worry about the p attack only. It's about everything else it offers. Not to mention it's multiplier on the special is better as it has a popular element in thunder. There are many other reasons but that's just the start.
Not getting overwhelmed is indeed tough, i was sooo hyped for this game but due to circumstances unfortunally could only play for about 3 days after the launch 😢 and just started again and feel like im wayyyy behind and got a lot of catching up to do, witch puts me off a little bit, and i s***cks cause i grew up with this game and waited for this one a longgg time. Thank god for Payne and his seemingly endless stream of content 😂👍Keep it up my man 💪
there is a $2 offer in the shop for an armor exchange ticket. other than that, there hasn't been any announcement I am aware of. the new ones going forward seem to be accessible in the stamp part of the pulls... armor exchange tickets are also available in the season pass, but that's more expensive...
It took me awhile but i finally finished all the story available today because of videos like these as a f2p. Thanks.
Nice work! very proud of u!
Thanks for this! Exactly what I needed when starting this game. I was extremely overwhelmed!
🥰
Crystals are drying up when you clear the stages first time even coop not giving them anymore 😮
yep after a certain point the crystals stop

@osvaun and events that will probably feed us more and new stories and dungeons perhaps
Dont forget the ads, the ads give 100 daily, thats a whole 10 pull a month
Thanks for the tips 👍
You’ve been very helpful for me to understand some of the lesser known aspects of this game
Glad I could help!

FANTASTIC music choice, my girlfriend and I both believe Laguna was the inspiration to Zack's first alt outfit.
I agree! He is very much an inspiration cause they look like one another

Dude, the game launched 8 days ago and you made 43 videos about it? On average, 5.3 videos per day!! Nice work!!
haha u know me, I'm always trying to get content out while I have the time to
Man with a machine gun on bgm. Good choice
do we have an update guide on this please for SEA players. We just started 😅 and I am so overwhelmed 😵💫

Ae muito obrigado pelos seus videos, tem me ajudado bastante no joguinho o//
Does cactuar trick work on other missions like grinding the matrial for weapon upgrades?
Yep it works there too
It's better to equip 3set of boost PATK weapon in sub weapon?
yea and thunder potency if u have it available
As a F2P why is the beach parasol not a god tear weapon? I have 4 white stars on it (the last co-op mission is beyond me) so if I level it to 90 its stats are Patt 370 Matt 380 Heal 170 ish - Masemune ordinary 5 star only has 245 Patt. What am I not understanding?

Hahaha my pleasure bro. Ya it's crazy how much they throw at you so quickly
how do I know there’s a cactaur in the mission that would give more exp?
U will see a cactuar pop up first fight.
Does the cactuar trick work on everything?
yep but for exp u want to do it on the exp stages
Is there anyway to get oufits? Really want aeriths

@@PhotographerRecords ah I may get that ty
we got 1 free voucher, 1 for $2 and one inside the battle pass you need to buy for $20
awesome thank you i did not realize this, got the outfit.@@PayneBlade
Have they patched the cactuar trick with new update?
still happens for me so I don't think they have
@@PayneBlade ah that's handy to know, just so I know I'm doing it right... if there Is no cactuar on round 1 I force close then resume the quest?
I think the cactaur redo has been nerfed.
I've seen some folks on my discord still doing it tbh
First! *second!
So what's the best way to get those ponk genome pods etc. Can't trade smaller pods for bigger ones 😢 (unless i missed it somehow)
gotta farm the premium quests and gil shop luck
@@PayneBlade that's so... oof 🥲
Haha yep!
This game feels like that one flashy anime gacha game
water is wet indeed
😭
@@PayneBlade hi payne sry to bother u but do u know how to target barrier for your party members in semi mode ?
@@Talezi1 I honestly can't remember the name. I do remember spending over $400 my first week before deciding to drop it
@@Red_Nokia_edits Hehe ok guess i misunderstood a bit .And i allready figured out what i was asking there is no targeting in semi...
22 seconds ago...
😮
a week too late
haha I did a beginners guide a few days ago so this is a follow up cause some people are still confused on what to do
