I wouldn't have gone in the same direction but this is probably pretty useful for new players. They get so much free stuff and cheap stuff that it's a great time to start WOTV! They will definitely get way more units to enjoy the game than OG players ever did but they will be lacking VCs which build up the long term power of the account. So that's just something they will need. Unfortunately VCs are moving away from F2P friendly because the 5 step 10k free vis banners are pretty much gone now since every new VC seems to be a holo which is super hard or expensive to pull.
Congrats to the new players. Starting the game is way easier than for us OGs. It seems leveling vision cards is still a pain. Wish they would just permanently increase the hard quest shards or bring back the bingo boards for old banners. Tons of free shards that we never get a chance to get.
Happy to see tons of URs. But honestly, being day 1 player that kept on re-rolling for days just to get Mediena and Engelbert, we oldies also need something like this somehow. If only Gumi would be so kind to us.
Only chance for that is probably on a comeback banner, last JP anniversary the second tier comeback banner was like a 120 selectable unit, a unit select, a select VC banner, and VC shards.
For the select 120 banner. The banner info explains what happens if you select a dupe. I think in general for the 60 paid 120 select, sol or bridal alaya is the play but I get why you went illdyra for what you're doing
lol i also just started another account weeks ago and in this account i just focus on light as main element since i did choose young helena from the LNY lv120 paid banner and light sterne as one of my unit choice from the beginner 120 banner and for the job based i go for sword and staff(black mage) but gonna focus on sword first since im planning on building my first team revolving around the two leonis prince. already max out the new lucio card which gonna benefit both king mont and light sterne and ill just slot free lucio for since hes also benefit form the vc.
Fun Fact: Ramada is the only MR Water unit that you can pull. Creysse, Deah, and Tyrell all come from acquisition quests. Severo and Yuni are the only other non-UR, pullable water units. Zazan doesn’t count because he’s only in the gil banner.
I gotten more Dark UR characters, what would you recommend for a Dark team from the select banners. I did the paid 2500 vizior pack for beginner that you did. I have (from pulls that isnt select) Dark Fina, Sterne (Knight of Ruin), Whisper, Sterne Leonis, and lvl 99 Xiza all UR's
Now that the potions are out and in the mog shop think you can swing an esper tier list? Specifically on the espers that are worthy of the extra SP. I could see where some espers that weren’t as good get a boost b/c the board expands. Also throw in your thoughts on if it’s worth using any sp on the evocation skill
Evocation up is only worth it when you have like 10 points left and nothing else to spend it on. Very few fights make it to the point where you can use the esper's attack.
Seeing this kinda makes me want to start another acc. My original account I started when Sephiroth came out and he was my first 140 and my strongest unit
Ok. We need someone to figure out the statistical anomaly that was him pulling back to back water units. And two spear users to boot. Also i still think its worth doing a 120 pull for oelde to max him out.
Getting whisper99 isn't bad cuz you can start farming rainbow MOG medals from friend shop. Ildyra is okay but amnelis literally does everything she does
I would NOT have taken free Ildyra with the 120 select either since you can just friend summon her. But it's his account! I honestly find that Sol is actually better a farmer for both PVP and PVE because he tanks and heals other units while doing massive damage. But Sol wouldn't fit with the water "theme" so I get why he did it.
Lol. this is not beginner friendly. This is "You've been playing for like, a week or more and have decided to re-roll and start fresh, and you know a lot of basics"

Yeah, I agree, OR they should put other option to gain VC shards. Aside from exchanging VC medals.

Love that you do this yearly! Keep up the amazing work!

I did a new account to start on Wind only with 2B, Sadali and Flagbearer as my main team for now.

good job covering everything new ppl need i myself am a 3year player and if i had this at that time i would of made better choices thumbs up Bro.
i wish VCs are easier to build off rate up

Can you pull for old event units somehow (like cloud or squal)

Yea I agree but some can be game changers and or help in pve. Having choco heal more can help in some selection quests and such
@@buster7925 Not saying you're wrong, but If a slightly stronger Choco heal is the difference between victory and defeat, you're walking a tightrope.
Seeing this kinda makes me want to start another acc. My original account I started when Sephiroth came out and he was my first 140 and my strongest unit
Just keep in mind new Shadowlynx likely won't have the 18k guaranteed banner since she's tied to Another Story
As a water player, i approved of this account so far :D
hey Ajj, can you comment on barracks too please?
Im so confused what's a mono team is that the same element 😳 not up to date with the terms
Ok. We need someone to figure out the statistical anomaly that was him pulling back to back water units. And two spear users to boot. Also i still think its worth doing a 120 pull for oelde to max him out.
Triple water - New Oelde, Gurnsbeck, and Miranda. It's hard to wish for a better start to an account focused on water.

Did you ask hiroki to set up your water account? Can you ask for free 1k rainbow sphere for everybody?
I just started, too late now 😢
