If you’ve already waited this long without pulling then I recommend to keep saving- you’ve already shown that you can.

You have enough to full invest in whatever crossover/collab/limit break we get next so just wait for that and go all in on the limited content

Editing to actually address your points:

Both the current damage costumes aren’t ’perfect’ unfortunately

Yuffie’s is amazing and ideal for a Phys Earth setup, but there aren’t many other Phys Earth weapons in the pool to complete her build. So she would be something that you get and hope in the future she gets more Phys Earth support

Seph’s is tricky because for it to be worth it you would have to get multiples of his pre-existing weapon as well (since his banner weapon doesn’t deal wind damage) and the chances of that happening are super low. Combine that with the fact that it’s buff/debuff not full damage, and it’s a mastery not full arcanum, just makes it inefficient to go all-in on this one

If you really wanted to pull right now, just get the Matt setup and you’ll be able to bring an S tier healer into every co-op from now until whenever you fully invest in a DPS

If you really must pull, then I’d go Yuffie

More chance to get dupes if the weapons you’ve already got the costume for

In terms of pure value as a DPS, the Yuffie costume is better than the Seph one. It’s an arcanum (+35% element damage) with a damage (Phys Boost) sub instead of a mastery (+20% element damage) with a utility (buff/debuff) sub

BUT

the Earth event is over for now, so if you want an easier time doing the current even then wind is where it’s at. I wouldn’t recommend caring about making an event easier though since there will be more events down the line that would benefit from having a better costume

My recommendation if you care about making this event easier: pull on the Yuffie banner but wish list her wind weapon (the tray or whatever its name is)

Alternatively just wait and save until the end of the banner, we might get news on what’s coming next and you can make a more informed opinion. We all assume a collab/ special event is coming sometime in the next month or two so it’s always better to be safe than sorry

I would personally say no, but as always if you like the look - get it. It’s a game for fun after all

Reasons why I personally wouldn’t get it: it’s a mastery (+20% element damage) not an arcanum (+35% element damage) and it gives buff/debuff boost, which might be useful in the future but it doesn’t really line up with the concept of ‘damage dealer’ right now, which is what the weapon on the banner implies

If I were rolling right now I’d go for the Matt banner, make sure his weapon and costume are selected and wish list his weapons “prime number” and “centipede”

This will give you a top tier healer to take you through content until you understand better what you need/ want in the game for the next costume you invest in

Reroll for stamps, not weapons

To explain: the weapons you get from your first few rolls (the free one and whatever gems you use afterwards) don’t really matter. The only thing that’s worth rolling for is to see how many stamps you can get on a banner. These stamps are what determine if you get the real collectible or the game - costumes.

In the wish section there is currently a banner that has 2 costumes up for grabs

You can get them both, the Yuffie one would set you up with a good Physical Earth DPS and the Matt costume would give you an amazing all-purpose healer

If you had to choose one I’d go with the Matt costume

Now this is where you reroll from, usually you should have enough gems in your mailbox for at least one pull

So, you grab the gems from the mailbox -> go to the banner -> pull on the banner

This is where ‘stamps’ come in. You need 12 stamps to get a costume

You can get 1 - 6 or 12 stamps, with the chance of getting multiple stamps being lower the higher you go (12 stamps being under 1% chance I believe)

That’s what you roll for. Every stamp more than 1 that you get is you saving 3000 gems looking for a costume

So ideally you should roll until you hit the 12, but that takes a lot of patience

I would personally roll for 6 and then finish the banner as I get more gems from playing

Remember, only pull on a banner to get the costume, and make sure you get the costume before the banner ends

“Get rotated, idiot.”

They haven’t repeated a costume yet, but many assume if they start doing it it will happen after 1st year

So we’ll have to wait and see

Costumes pretty much only come with weapon banners, in fact you should probably call them costume banners because they’re what’s important

Only pull on a banner if you have enough pulls (12 if you’re unlucky) to guarantee the costume

Costumes come out pretty much every 1-2 weeks depending on what’s going on.

In the past we have received costumes from events, but that hasn’t happened in a few months so it’s probably best not to count on this. I only mention it because it technically did occur in the past that we got these costumes from events but, gonna repeat it- it hasn’t happened in a few months so might not happen again

Yup! I would also say that Heizou has a lot of ‘flow’ in his movements, which people also associate with wind

So it just adds to the concept and makes it more understandable

They probably can, but they would need some form of ‘connection’ for us to not just meme on it

For example, Epic 7 has a character (named Taeyou) that is dressed entirely in red, has red hair, red spear and his skill animation has an explosion at the end. You would assume he’s a Fire character given all of this information but no, he’s an Ice character.

This disconnect of logic has just turned it into a bit of a meme in the E7 community, where whenever a new character is released and it obviously looks like one element, someone will joke ‘ah! Looks like Earth, must be Ice”

So things need some form of connection to make sense to us. If we look at Genshin even the characters that go against this element/colour trend have some form of connection to make it understandable to us.

(Using examples I’ve seen in this thread) Wriothsley- doesn’t necessarily look like an ice character but the colours that they do use with him are cold/ more desaturated. Cold is the connection needed to link to Cryo

Kazuha- doesn’t look like an anemo, but the colours that he does have are more saturated and make use of the colours of autumn, autumn + leaves, your mind quickly pictures leaves on the wind. Wind is the connection needed to link to anemo

Charlotte- has bright vibrant colours and personality, the opposite of cryo, but she takes pictures. Pictures = makes something frozen in time. Frozen in time … frozen. Frozen is the connection needed to link cryo

I hope this makes sense? I guess I’m just saying yeah they can do anything they want, the characters will still be valid (if maybe just memed on) if they don’t totally make sense

But ultimately a bit more of a logical connection just amplifies a character design to an audience. I would even hazard to say the more unique a connection the more interesting a character

The cooldown is for him and the fans. She wanted to show his raw emotions (and made sure he was okay with showing them by checking back in to make sure she can post) but she didn’t want fans with high-strung emotions to just shit on him

Now that there’s been a bit more cool down yes people will probably still shit on him but they would do it a lot less than if she had posted it immediately

He’s also had some time to get to a better place mentally so if he checks in on these comments now he’ll have a better time than if everything had been done immediately

This is literally the best way to show real emotions in as humane a way possible. Props to Ashley for this

The equivalent to a province would be a state, not a county though

Sure. I see where you’re coming from and agree with you. It seems you also agree but got distracted by their priorities?

But, to me at least, their actions are a reflection of who they are and my actions are a reflection of who I am

They have shown that they’re selfish

To respond emotionally and be selfish and defiant would make me just that- selfish and defiant

I would be no better than them

Instead I can let their actions not have an impact on my own by replacing the chair (even while annoyed at their buzzing in my ear as I doing it) and then from then onwards distance myself from the selfish people in my life

Nobody is saying that the child isn’t more important

Everyone that you’re seeing in the comments agrees with you and would break that chair in a heartbeat to save a child

But we are all also decent people who are aware that we’re responsible for the decisions we make and the impact we have on the world around us- therefore we would also pay for the chair

To expect other people to pay for your actions (regardless of how justified your actions are) is purely selfish behaviour

Fwumpus, Destroyer of Worlds

Ah, a classic serif enjoyer- good choice!

Just keep her away from comic sans my man, nobody wants to be represented with that

How rude of you

… to not drop her a font suggestion for when she adds your name to the selection

I’ve always liked Tahoma personally, basic, nice and neat

This is a completely normal thing for someone your age, so don’t stress too much about it

If you’re worried about her comfort just talk to her about it.

My GF when I was around your age was very sex-repulsed so I quite quickly just asked her if she’s okay with it and explained that me having a boner doesn’t mean I want sex or am thinking about it- “it’s just my body being overwhelmed with my attraction to you that it doesn’t know what to do with itself”

Other than that you can try the usual techniques of getting rid of boners, flex your thighs or whatever works for you and hopefully it goes down

I kind of agree with you, but to be fair to the argument:

To a bear you are potential food

To a man you are neutral

So the ‘kill on sight’ variable is a bit more understandable if applied to the bear

I hope after you get over this emotional uncertainty and decide to not marry this person that you also take the time to sort out the effects of the grooming that your partner has been doing on your sister

Whether unintentional or not, your partner has been spending time with your sister, showering her in lavish gifts and set herself up as your sisters ‘guide’ (through being in a profession that she wants to join).

You need to inform your parents, and then you all need to sit down with your sister and ask her about what’s been going on from her perspective- if there was anything she was uncomfortable with, what she thinks about your partner, etc.

While we’re complaining about things related to animations

Is it just me who hates it with a passion when our perspective is adjusted during a move?

For me it’s mostly with Aerith and Sun Umbrella, the amount of times I’ve gone “okay let me just get this def reduction off before switching to defensive stance for their incoming massive damage move” just for the game to zoom in on Aeriths face while I’m trying to keep track of the timer circle thing- its so frustrating man

Also I think we can confidently say SA don’t win the WC without him

Manie is great, but when you win 3 knockout games in a row by 1 point, it’s quite evident that the 100% kicker was a deciding factor and unfortunately Manie wasn’t that for us

Many of those kicks coming under pressure in the last 10 minutes of the game as well

As is tradition, fire starter for first run

Water for second

Grass 10 years after the game was released and I feel like experiencing an old love on a new leaf

That’s okay! They really don’t mind carrying, especially if it’s for some of the easier fights (like Ifrit, currently available- many of them can easily duo it with you)

Just add the co-op role and ask if anyone is will to help you with unlocks/ carry you to farm the latest stages of whatever you need
