    I like the banner (especially the appearance of Cloud's sword) but I don't feel like I need any of the weapons/outfits (no "OMG! I NEED THIS!" vibes). So for me it is 'Better safe than sorry' for now. Waiting until the end of Limit Break event with pulling on banners was best decision for me. So for sure I will wait at least until next banner, and see what they will give us. Thanks for the video!

    Although we are getting a whole lot of Blue Crystals right now (plus the free 10 draw), I'm gonna wait till the end of the event to decide if I pull on anything (saw from the email that SQEX sent that Tifa and Aerith are getting garbs + weapons).

    My main team is Cloud/Tifa/Barret so I'm going to end up pulling on both banners. Pulled the 1st card on this banner because the weapon is killer and I missed out on Cloud's FF9 outfit and slotting in elemental outfits feels booty on fights when I can't pick on a weakness.
    Will most likely continue pulling for the 2 guaranteed copies on Stamp 16 & 20 down the line, but I want to have enough crystals stocked up to jump on Tifa's outfit right away if it's solid. I also use Aerith as a flex 4th for magic damage, so I'm not against pulling to 24 on that banner if it's worth it.

    So I decided before the banner drop that I was going to most likely skip this crossover event and save 💎 The biggest reason for this is that I’m pulling for Yuffie’s Summer outfit no matter what as well as Vincent’s release banner.
    As you mentioned, the Cloud weapon is very good! As it stands, this weapon now is his best secondary weapon for pure DPS builds… Problem is I’m not the biggest fan of his armor both aesthetically and R.Ability wise. Like the R.Abilities aren’t bad by any means but as you mentioned it’s not difficult to build PATK up so would rather have seen something else. The plus side I suppose is that you only need one maxed out weapon with at least 45 pts of PATK in your mainhand to be completely done with PATK. But yeah at the end of the day I don’t necessarily need the buffs this weapon gives if I already run Cloud with characters who provide those buffs like Yuffie (I have OB7 Artic Star) so the buff from the weapon doesn’t exactly help all that much for me and I have multiple sources of PDEF down if need be as well. This weapon does consolidate things and is still good regardless of what I mentioned but yeah, doesn’t exactly scream “PULL” for me. Admittedly I’m lowkey sad tho, since I have every Cloud costume up to this point so it’ll hurt my “collector’s pride” but it can’t be helped as a low spender…
    Ultimately we’ll see by the end of the event though… I’m curious what Aerith’s next costume will bring as I’d like to see her go back to getting more “support” type gear as I need that more considering the hard fights have been getting harder. Outside of that like, like I mentioned, the plan is to save for next month.

    • @Nitelight9
      @Nitelight9  Місяць тому +2

      Was just talking about Aerith this morning in the disc... she definitely need some help now in the healing/support category since they've given matt SO many great weapons for this. It makes me sad for her!
      Re Cloud, it's hilarious that you aren't a fan of this armor but loved that yuffie costume! haha we on opposite ends of the spectrum!
      Do you think they will ever increase the cap on PATK etc? Seems like they need to at some point so we can still enjoy some of these weapons!

      @@Nitelight9 Haha that is funny that you mention it (in regards to the taste in costumes) speaking of, I always find it funny that you seemingly always dislike Zack’s costumes (with few exceptions) I really like Zack’s Costume look! I will say I like Clouds color scheme but just not a fan of the breast plate being so far pushed up that it sorta looks like a bra (sorry if I ruin it for you now) 🤣
      But yeah, with regard to PATK increase… It’s entirely possible but realistically I don’t see them doing it for a long while. I think I they’ll introduce more newer R.Abilities before that, like we see with the PATK/MATK party R.Abilities. I can see eventually as they increase the level cap of weapons we’ll probably need to increase the R.Ability cap, since we’ll get to a point one weapon in the main hand can cap an R.Ability by itself lol.

    I spent everything i had for this and even some of my hard earned money because the costume is a must have if you own the zidane sword or can raise your PATK and PHYS ABILITY POTENCY to level 7. The physical mastery is just too good especially with OB6 glavenous and OB10 Zidane sword. It feels like i have arcanum agaisnt everything that isnt resisting physical, but just the sword and costume by themselves is gonna help anyone that doesn't own all the Arcanums BUT you gotta keep in mind that you need to get the glavenous sword to OB6 for the full potential. Don't bother with this unless you can get the sword to OB6. Regular weapons are going to raise your R abilities more than the glavenous sword and can make you more powerful than the buff/debuff you get from glavenous. There is only 2 costumes so far with the physical mastery and they were both from limited banners so they might be worth if you dont have any Arcanums. They're worst than costumes with masteries(20 %) or Arcanum (35%) but the 15% is good agaisn't EVERYTHING that isn't resisting physical. So for the daulphins, whales and minnows that pulled on the Zidane sword this is a must pull.

    • @Nitelight9
      @Nitelight9  Місяць тому

      @@Darloud The Glavenous Sword help with everything related to PATK so it will help with Murasame, Skysplitter etc. I say OB6 is recommended because you get the full buff/debuff with the sword C. Ability for 30 seconds, plus a good amount of R Abilities. Still a great weapon if you don't get it to OB6 but the buff is capped at potency mid for only 25 seconds and deals 190% less DMG and since this is limited to this MH event you'll have to spend a lot of Specific weapon parts to raise its OB level.

    Holding for now. I have 50K crystals so I’m like… not in the best spot. Cloud is a staple in my party, and his weapon seems like the bee’s knees in the off-hand. I have an OB10 Murasame and an OB10 Skysplitter that I tend to run which largely makes the PATK a dead stat… something like this at OB6 at least would be phenomenal utility. I also don’t have a non-elemental, phys damage costume for Cloud. I have his fire, lightning, ice, water mastery.. so this would be nice for versatilities sake on my most primary DPS unit.
    Zack, I’m torn. Something I don’t hear a lot of EC pundits talk about is having, the characters from each main story, decently built, to progress those stories steadily and complete Extra challenges. My Zack unit from a costume and versatility perspective is pretty weak. I have his default, his beach shorts, and his voucher costume. So something like this would really ratchet him up for how he sits in my account.. but idk.
