Ive got so many costumes for Sephiroth already that I didn't see any point chasing this one, but the Cloud costume with the fire arcanum is definitely worth it, just like with Lucia and her earth arcanum costume. They're going to have to drop an insane costume for Yuffie for her to compete with what we already have.
Best wishes to you and your family. I agree with almost every point you made here and newer players should not shy from the banner. I personally really dig Cloud's new year look and managed to pull several of his weapon + one of sephiroth's in the process and I'm very pleased with the results. You couldn't have made a more perfect analysis of the damage potential.
Happy New Years, my Guy! Glad to be here 😄 I went for utility this pull and wanted my guarantee to be Sephy's weapon. Got two and one of clouds along the way. Now waiting for the free gems to come my way so I can chase after Clouds gear. Praying to the RNGods that the next pull give me 2 stamps, haha. That's all I need 😭
I got both seph n clouds weapons plus dupes along with aeriths and Tifa winter weapons after 3 pulls. I got lucky. Wish costumes could be acquired first.
Just gonna keep with my strategy since the beginin ... only and only when i cant do the ex-crash... i go for banner... gonna wait and see what they do with this event/crash battle and then decide... nice vid, completly agree if u have a strong cloud mb a fire blow will be enough for the crash will see.
I didn't go for Cloud's Murasame or Maritime costume so, I will *definitely* be going for this one. It looks SO GOOD!!! And I'm working on getting the summons anyway. I've been working on Ifrit and starting to work on Shiva, so this will be perfect.
41,000 gems got me 1 of each weapon and 4 pulls away from Seph costume...😢 and less than 50 weapon parts for each. On the plus side, my Edge Wings is now maxed out plus one. SOME SOUND ADVICE. Get all your freetickets and do those pulls before pulling on this banner. I got my plus one Edge Wing from free pulls. I could have removed it from my preferred weapons list and gotten another weapon instead.
Eh, I usually save free pulls for breaking up losing streaks on crystal pulls, I just take anything that is almost fully obed off the wishlist. And hey, at least it's a banner weapon that plus 1ed.
I did my pulls, everypull was a 1 but one with a 3 (going for both costumes). 1 o each weapon and a lot of blue pulls, a couple of offbanners and for all the free pulls only the free step and the free multi gave a 5 star. Had pretty bad luck to end year ngl. Can't wait to see your 1 pull Ob10 Cloud's weapon! Jk wish you a happy new year Octo.
I wasn't around at the beginning of the game for lighting/water Cloud, so I've gone hard on this one! Unfortunately, I did not have much in any of the necessary subweapons, but I wish listed them all and I'm starting to get some copies. I'm running out of resources to level them up though! After playing for a few months it's nice to see my power creeping up significantly with this.
Smelly I think it is important in these videos about new videos to also discuss the stats of the weapon increasing as well. The PATK on this is almost 600 the highest weapon i believe to date. Something to keep an eye on as these new weapons release because it is another form of power creep that people don't recognize.
We don’t have water arcanum’s yet though. Clouds is just a mastery. I think it’s safe to assume there will be a patk + matk variant for each arcanum as well, as Tifa and seph have gotten the physical ice and magic ice now. And there’s still gotta be aero + earth breach gear too
It's meant to compliment Cloud with the debuffs. Its basically Zachs BW but it is a little bit stronger with about 20 more stats in its Att and Mag. Its a GREAT sub weapon to alos put on Cloud if you don't want to use Seph.
So thankful for your content 😊 have a happy new year! P.S. you have my prime monthly subscription on lockdown 💪. I just am usually settling in for bed when your stream starts.
I saved 30k gems for this banner. Got some pretty good luck on it so far! Only 1 copy of Clouds weapon, 2 copies of Sephs weapon. It made both of Yuffies EX stages a joke! I ran Seph Cloud and Tifa as my healer, CP was about 184k. I would compare Sephs new weapon to Zachs Black Whiskers rather than Lucias BE. BE only does Ice resistance down with damage, This does damage+Def down+ Fire res down. and It has good stats in Att and Mag being about 20 points higher than BW. Also at OB6 it goes right to High potency! THAT IS BROKEN!
I think the reason why Radiant Edge wasn't Fire is because Sephiroth already has Prototype Crimson Blade. Maybe the developers felt that it'd be a bit too powerful, if Sephiroth had _two_ Fire-based weapons, especially if one's already AoE.
Im f2p. I have max overboosted clouds water sword, and murasame at OB6 with arcanum outfit, and now this comes out and i just blew all my crystals 😂 God it hurts a little
I did 1 pull on this banner cause god damn it I really want both costumes. 3 stamps and a Cloud Sword so I'm gonna wait till the second banner drops cause I feel it in my jellies that Tifa and Red 13 are the next banner and I'm not gonna let another Tifa banner scare me again.
If you do the math, at 5* materia fire blow on that 30% slot with the 20% outfit, and the breach and phys down? He will hit more often for 500ish potency… thats actually pretty nuts. If you actually do the calculations he might out damage cloud
I put 40k crystals into this banner. Result? Cloud Weapon OB0, Seph Weapon 4 star. 4 non-guaranteed 5 stars besides this. I was so hyped for this banner too. Thank god im f2p.
I missed thunder AND water costumes so I pulled. My luck waa abysmal though. It took 8 pulls to get the costume, got 0 wishlist items, only the one guaranteed Cloud weapon and just 1 Seph weapon. Just awful luck.
Im definitely one of the ones going hard on getting a group of characters to be really strong but after hearing “4k attack” I’m not sure what strong truly is lol
What a horible new year start for me in over 200 multis got literally 7 5 star weapons like wtf... and it's 6 if i dont count the guaranted 5 star they gave us.
Sephiroth’s weapon has a +30% fire bonus. That makes it 317%(4*) or 330%(5*) for 3 ATB which is not too bad. Combine that with his costume and the boost from his weapon R ability and you’ve got a pretty good sub dps.
How on earth do yo have 67k Crystals? What am I doing wrong? I get close to 3k a day at most. AT MOST. I can't imagine having 67k, so what's the secret?
@@tehSunBro yes, clearly, as not using them you'd rack up a good amount. Not sure if I should have worded my question different, but anyway. Was more curious if there was a farming technique I didn't know about. Thanks for the answer though.

Seph's weapon is even better than cloud's weapon, fire resistence down combined with fire materia support, fire blow + def reduction or fira with 3 atb rocks. Either way that weapon is broken especially in combination with Cloud's weapon.
This guy can’t see anything beyond numbers. Mid pdef down and high fire down is the best damage boosting anyone could hope for in a physical fire team. Sephiroth almost doubling Cloud’s, or any fire dps’ with blow materias, damage, while still doing competitive dps with fire blow. This and black whiskers are the best weapons for water and fire. Not to mention their 54 patk. And Arcanum isn’t as good as he’s making it to be. But you can tell he’s completely oblivious to anything other than the word damage. It is better than Phy/Mag ability boost in one element, the same damage in non element, but lose out in every other elements. For quick build, go for all purpose cookie cutter, then min max with elemental and arcanum. If you’ve already gotten Zidane Cloud, no need to go for Arcanum. If you are strong with phy/mag boost for 5 other elements, then you are as strong in the last element without the arcanum.
In a game where damage is king (if you didnt notice, almost every fricking boss in this game is a DPS race) he is making very valid points. But you do you boo. Arcanum has been proven to be extremely good in a lot of scenarios unless the boss is resisted to that element.
You're one of those guys who skipped to the end huh 😂 because he praised how strong Sephiroth fire weapon and even said its really good like the other element breach weapons
I literally stated in my comment why Sephiroth’s weapon is tge equivalent of damage… And no arcanum is not good in almost all content. It is good in one element. Okay-ish in non-element, and shit in everything else.
@@kenji2787 yeah you're smoking hard on that arcarum is a flat +35% damage bonus. No strings attached. I own OB6 Zidane Sword and my friend who has Maritime Cloud does the same damage as me against Bahamut. You don't need to rely on stance being maxed like Zidane or Amarant weps. It's better in every way except if the boss is resistant to said element and there's more ways to boost elemental damage than physical. He is NOT overselling Arcarum, more like you're underselling it. Not to mention the HUGE irony on your comment saying he only looks at the numbers and damage when you also did the same thing with that breakdown of Sephy's wep
As someone who missed out on thunder god cloud, i am pulling hard for his costume and weapon
Got the weapon need the costume
I missed it as well.. im glad i have this costume though
Will it ever be back? I hope there'll be chances to get, that won't take too long😢
Pulling this banner just for yuffie sub weapons
gonna pull hard on this cloud
Ive got so many costumes for Sephiroth already that I didn't see any point chasing this one, but the Cloud costume with the fire arcanum is definitely worth it, just like with Lucia and her earth arcanum costume.
They're going to have to drop an insane costume for Yuffie for her to compete with what we already have.
Yuffie might be a completely new, meta changing thing - which would be totally fine, I think.
@@nomadicgamer9466 Maybe. Or she could be Barret, get one new costume, and then we never see her again

Pull for the Costume. Just for farming. The weapons are not limited, so can be wishlisted or ticket draw later.

You make great content and thanks for all the info. Wish you and your family well in the new year
Thank you & Happy new year to you & your family!
Gonna wait for the arrival of Yuffie and use my crystals then but that costume and weapon for Cloud and Sephiroth are nice.
I feel ya bro, I've been sick all this three day weekend for the new year, shit sucks
I didn't go for Cloud's Murasame or Maritime costume so, I will *definitely* be going for this one. It looks SO GOOD!!! And I'm working on getting the summons anyway. I've been working on Ifrit and starting to work on Shiva, so this will be perfect.
You'll definitely get a huge boost in power than!
Im waiting for vincent as well, I've got like 37000 currency, but this banner is tempting.
Very tempting but I think I'm set with my 4k atk cloud. So Vincent here I come!
41,000 gems got me 1 of each weapon and 4 pulls away from Seph costume...😢 and less than 50 weapon parts for each.

Sorry to hear your luck was so/so. It's ok next year is going to be better!
My luck was about the same. A lot of 1xs and all blue pulls, a 2 and 3 here and there.
Used my luck on christmas with a 12x though ha

Not only is sephs weapon not fire, it is, again, a physical damage weapon and not magical

Sephiroth already has a fire weapon
@@raalvarado7390 But it's not good. It's an AOE fire ability with mixed att R ability.
Happy new year everyone ❤❤❤
Happy New Year Brotha, It’s Great To See You Coming In Strong 🥳
Skipping again as waiting for Vincent!
But I agree this banner is cracked and if i wasnt hard saving so much for vincent I'd definitely be pulling!
I've got an amazing lightning Cloud and a mediocre Ice Sephiroth. I'll be waiting for the next Fire Costumes
Happy New Year!! I caved for Cloud weapon and costume. 😂 (Gonna have to find new memes if you pull again.) 😅
So thankful for your content 😊 have a happy new year! P.S. you have my prime monthly subscription on lockdown 💪. I just am usually settling in for bed when your stream starts.

I saved 30k gems for this banner. Got some pretty good luck on it so far! Only 1 copy of Clouds weapon, 2 copies of Sephs weapon. It made both of Yuffies EX stages a joke! I ran Seph Cloud and Tifa as my healer, CP was about 184k.

Banner did me well. Now I can save for advent children event
if u keep making videos about these ill ring the bell and watch them all
I've been doing it since day 1 😉
I need more sephiroth cause i sleep on him HARD (im a zack and cloud main) but the sephiroth costume is sexy as hell
I think the reason why Radiant Edge wasn't Fire is because Sephiroth already has Prototype Crimson Blade. Maybe the developers felt that it'd be a bit too powerful, if Sephiroth had _two_ Fire-based weapons, especially if one's already AoE.
Sephiroths new gear is set up to complement Clouds new stuff. I have Clouds new weapon at OB16 and Sephiroths at OB11.
The real question is… will Octo pull and how deep will he go >:)
happy new year everyone!
Im f2p. I have max overboosted clouds water sword, and murasame at OB6 with arcanum outfit, and now this comes out and i just blew all my crystals 😂
God it hurts a little

Stay strong!
Yeah he will. He wants the Cloud outfit. Just give him time.
You know me to well but I must resist!
Happy New Year everyone! Hope everyone is doing well and here's to a great upcoming 2024
Happy New Year Autie!
Where is the video on B70 and Bahamut EX2 clear?
Got a feeling that we'll start seeing things like gravity soon 🙏
Waiting for my hastega!

If you do the math, at 5* materia fire blow on that 30% slot with the 20% outfit, and the breach and phys down? He will hit more often for 500ish potency… thats actually pretty nuts. If you actually do the calculations he might out damage cloud
Having to waste four atb for the debuff every tot second he cant outdamage cloud all same ob ecc.
Waiting yuffie.
Let’s see what she will bring news…
they didnt add all the ice weapons to the ticket pool like the snowflake for Aerith....
The weapon damage are starting to get powercrept slowly sadly.
I put 40k crystals into this banner. Result? Cloud Weapon OB0, Seph Weapon 4 star. 4 non-guaranteed 5 stars besides this. I was so hyped for this banner too. Thank god im f2p.
end of year, of course pull!!
Hey guys anyone having trouble loading the game up on steam ? Getting infinite loading screen after I preen enter to log in ?
I missed thunder AND water costumes so I pulled. My luck waa abysmal though. It took 8 pulls to get the costume, got 0 wishlist items, only the one guaranteed Cloud weapon and just 1 Seph weapon. Just awful luck.
But what if you already have physical Cloud
X2 physical 😉
Seph has a fire weapon
Hope you had a great Christmas and have a lovely new year!
I pulled from this banner got cloud costume and weapon and stopped
Probably gonna be part 2 banner so hopefully on tifa 😄
where the NO OB ramuh and bahamut guides coming? i need my smelly guides to win
I pulled because I don't have the Murasame Garb.
Im definitely one of the ones going hard on getting a group of characters to be really strong but after hearing “4k attack” I’m not sure what strong truly is lol
i dont have thunder god cloud. i saved 60k crsytals ill prolly go for this
i got them both only cost me 20K crsytals! got 2x 3stamp yay!
DAMN... nice!@@TheBenlueks
I want that flaming hot cheeto cloud
Bro i just started and got skysplitter should i invest?
No only invest with a costume that matches the element of the weapon.
Should have been red xiii...
Make the character useful, he woefully needs it
What a horible new year start for me in over 200 multis got literally 7 5 star weapons like wtf... and it's 6 if i dont count the guaranted 5 star they gave us.
U say fire is last arcanium costume but did we have water yet ?
Not water but what I meant was Arcanum/Master costume. So we have all elements in some form.
@@SmellyOctopus Maybe she comes with a water arcanum costume but in the event she uses fire attacks despite being weak to fire, so confusing.
The power scaling slowly happening.. watch stuff eventually be 1000% 1500, 2000% 😬

Wouldn't it be 390% for 5 stars? 300x1.3=390
this is correct, its 390 or 130 per atb, making it equal to a 520% 4 atb skill which is really good@@ArikadoX
I wish we got a lucia new years costume, they cooked with tifa and aeriths winter coostumes but Lucia's was just trash
Saved 50k crystals as f2p and got terrible luck as always… got 3 maritime cloud weapon ob2 and some useless weapons… Terrible 😢
50k and only ob2? 😢
@@Ray-xv9dw yeah, thinking about leaving..
I thought we were still waiting on water arcanium? I know we have water mastery on Cloud.
probably yuffie.. although she can be physical earth arkanum, or magical thunder arkanum, or a bunch of different possibilities xD
@@peidei2vezes In the event she was using an earth limit break kinda
Sephs weapon and skill looks so cool..but it’s phys 😐
Got both weapons at ob 6 and wow watch out Liu kang , this set up smashes gods lol

dont think pull HAPPY NEW YEARS OCTO
