i wonder if they just nerfed the rem when we got it or something

people are reporting a -lot- of bad rolls for some reason

Yeah.  I remember people saying the JP REM had pretty good rates?

How is it possible that with all the people working for PAD not a single one of them noticed that a skill-up material that might drop from an invade is utterly RETARDED??!?

What, no i'm not pissed about Sephiroth's skill-up, what gave you the idea? And certainly i'm not annoyed by the fact that i have lots of pys for every color EXCEPT DARK..... :X

They still think evolving skillups are a good idea.  I think that explains a good deal right there.

Hey, if it bothers you just assume that there are no skillups and wait to get Piis. Recall that we just got DC collab back and still had no skillups for anything, so this is at least marginally better than that. I don't think it's really reasonable to expect to skillmax anything off of collab invades, it's way too hard, but you have an option to try to save a few Piis at the cost of running nothing but the collab for a few weeks.
I made a PADHerder. It's probably out of date though.

It took only like 10 or so rolls to get all of the golds in the rem sans seph, yeah. With dupe tidus.

I've also seen a lot of yolo golds though so it could just be you and matsy getting the iron shaft, tbh

The worst part is that I'm still tempted to roll more just because I want Rinoa orz

the power of nostalgia is a strong one

EDIT: rolled 2 more

>Vivi3
>Rinoa

ok done

I had already decided that any Badpy i get would immediately go to Seph even before starting to farm the collab. I'm more annoyed at the stupidity of the luck-fest involved in his specific skill-up:

1) if you are lucky Gilgamesh invade
2) if you are lucky you drop the sword instead of Gilgamesh
3) if you are lucky you get a skill-up when you feed the sword

I won't try to calculate the actual probability of getting a skill-up from a run but it's damn close to ONE PERCENT, which is simply ridiculous.
I'll still farm the collab non-stop but it feels really frustrating....

The only saving grace is that the bgm is awesome, the enemies are awesome and, ironically enough, my Rinoa is already 2/3 on skillups :V

Yeah, it's too hard.  But the Superman skillup is 0% because it doesn't exist, so at the very least there's that.

Unless you've got other business sticking around that collab dungeon I suggest you go farm Badpys from alts. Probably a lot more lucrative in the long run. Sounds like the rates are about the same, but each dungeon is way cheaper so you can squeeze way more in.

Agree 100% on the badpys, i'm mainly sticking with the collab because it's also a reliable source of Rinoa and Kefka's skillups. It's not like my Sephiroth is already maxed and +297 so there is no hurry to maxskill him (now watch as i drop Masamune in the very next run and Seph goes 1/1 on skillups  :V)

I ended up going for the Tamadra dungeon instead of +egg farming after all, since I had a lot of stamina and was going to rank up before it ran out. Max 'wakened Kalloween with two Baby Tamadras left over.

Still unsure whether I want to use Metatron or Sleeping Beauty on the final team, so I guess I should test both. That means I need more Tamadras for Sleeping Beauty. At least she's almost skillmax from feeding rando High Water Ninjas into her. I guess I should also budget even more Tamadras for B/W Izanagi while I'm at it.

Edit: Son of a bitch, I keep saying Sleeping Beauty when I mean Snow White. When I'm talking about Kalloween I mean Snow White. They are too similar.

Honestly if you're not hurting for RCV I'd say that Snow White would be a better choice than Metatron due to higher HP and heartmaking skills on top of being able to clear binds.

Yeah, my recovery is plenty acceptable with four hypermaxed healers (once Kalloween is done) and a modifier. The main draw to Metatron for me is that she's primary white and has at least some attack (Snow White's attack is aaaaaawful) so she'll be providing at least some damage. But it won't be a ton either way, so I think Snow White is probably the better choice. And certainly the cooler one.

Edit: Forgot that Kalloween is not actually healer, she's god/devil. Regardless, she has good recovery.

I tried out uevo Hathor for a bit and I'm loving it.
4 Light OEs turned out to be real good since it's on the leader, and Hathor has low ATK anyways so leaving the damage output to the TPA-ers while boosting their base-atk is pretty legit.
Here are some testing I did with +99atk on Mini rose and hathor only.

6c with a non-enhanced light 4-orb combo


6c with a enhanced light 4-orb combo

I just had a new found appreciation for the OE awakening :V

I just threw all my saved plus eggs onto the team so now it's near full hyper maxed (4 297s and one in the 100s)
Lets see how I fare in Arena with her!

Arena didn't go too well but the lastest c10 in JP has Kalis in it!
It goes Beelzebub->Uevo Goemon-> LKali/DKali
and I no-stoned it with Hathor! yay

Hathor's tanky enough to stall >10 turns on Goemon and 14 turns on lkali lol.

One-shot challenge and Scarlet, why must you vex me? I just want to farm +eggs and I don't need any distractions!

Got Awoken Susano finally. With him my Verdandi team has 45362 HP now, up from... Much less than that.

And as an added bonus, while I was fetching the materials to un-evolve Susano I happened to get enough Rubylits to evolve an extra red fairy that I had laying around forever and got a skillup off of it. Rando hero god skillups are the best.
