Hey guys. So this is our final episode of the FFBE Podcast. It's been an awesome and amazing ride creating this podcast and playing FFBE. We are not done making content in general, but we're going to have to step away from FFBE. So this episode is an assortment of various topics, but mainly we reminisce about the podcast and our favourite moments o…

Episode 68: Physalis Event, Story Rant, and Scorn of the Legendary Stag 27:55

4+ y ago27:55

27:55

In this episode Mini and Wilm discuss the Physalis story event and how Physalis as a unit makes us feel. Does it make sense?We also go on a bit of a rant about the story, specifically, how ridiculous season 2 was. Why are the Veritas alive? Why is everyone Rain? How did they take the best part of season 2 and ruin it with 1 moment? And finally, WHY…

Episode 67: Scorn of the Wicked Moon 18:02

5y ago18:02

18:02

Scorn of the Wicked Moon... the bane of both of our existances. If there was one trial we both hated immensely, we think it would be this one. A trial where surviving is the difficult part, but to survive you need to be both tanky and do lots of DPS at the same time. Oh, and you can't do any physical damage, everything is immune to physical damage.…

Episode 66: Black Friday Event | New Secret Agent Units Are Awesome | New OP Magnus Abilities 49:36

5y ago49:36

49:36

This Black Friday FFBE brings more than bundles: A new theme of units with an all new type of ability! Seems like Black Friday will be a new event type in FFBE, and I for one am excited. Not only are we getting an amazing bundle (4k Lapis for a ton of amazing goodies - Mini is excited) but these new units are really breathing life into some old 4 s…

Episode 65: Magitek Warrior Terra and Adventurer Locke | Scorn of the Fallen Ice Bird 32:06

5y ago32:06

32:06

In this episode we go over Magitek Warrior Terra and Adventurer Locke. The new Terra CG has Mini captivated and Wilmgaard can't figure out who the hell Locke is! Terra is ushering in the next level of mages, however Locke does nothing for the thieving class? The STMR he brings though is absolutely disgusting. It gives so much more versatility to fu…

5y ago31:33

31:33

In this episode we give our thoughts on the recent changes to rare summons, UoC tickets, and so much more! The changes make summons so much better and give us confidence for the future. They have gone ahead and updated the summon rate of rainbows up to 5% (was 3%), updated the on banner rate to 1.5% (was 1%), and THINNING OUT THE SUMMONING POOL! Th…

Episode 62: Scorn of the Octopus and the Teacher 29:06

5y ago29:06

29:06

In this episode we discuss the Scorn of Octopus and the Teacher trial as we experienced it. At it's core, this trial boils down to 2 things: can you beat the octopus, and can you burst the teacher? The fight comes in 2 phases, wave 1 is just a fight vs Orthros, who comes with his own challenges. Wave 2 is both Orthros and Typhon. To beat Orthrus it…

Episode 60: Scorn of Gilgamesh discussion and Chocobo Fina hits us with True Spirit Wield 38:38

5y ago38:38

38:38

In this episode we talk about Chocobo Fina and what it means to have increases in equipment spirit. She hits hard, is quite tanky due to high SPR. Plus she heals when she beats you ... reminds me of Betty a little honestly. We cover the Scorn of Gilgamesh trial in more detail discussing our difficulties with it and the strategies we used to overcom…

Episode 61: Scorn of the Beasts of the Dark, FFBE farming missions just got BETTER!?, the Lantern gives Mini nightmares 25:18

25:18

In this episode we cover our clears and strategies for Scorn of the Beasts of the Dark (Dark Ifrit/Dark Siren). First we discuss the update to the most recent farming event. There's only 1 round on LGD tier which is amazing is it takes significantly less time. Yes, it is a bit harder to do, but if you can get your team down, it makes it easier goin…

Episode 59: New BEST TANK in the game!? FF5 looks promising, Return of Farmville, Story discussion, 42:32

5y ago42:32

42:32

In this episode we go over all the new units and events as per usual. Galuf looks amazing! 50% damage mitigation is crazy, and he's a great tank overall. Why do we have to farm all these new units out though? Why is this looking like DLC: get a brand new unit, JK you gotta unlock him fully. This is true for all 3 of this weeks units, plus the previ…

Episode 58: FFBE or Farming Simulator? Double King Mogs, New CG unit from FF2: Firion 40:58

40:58

In this episode we talk about FFFS... Final Fantasy: Farming simulator. With back to back king mog events, it feels like the farming never ends! We continue our discussions to cover the ability awakening batch which has some awesome units... but how many awakenings can you do? These will be extremely expensive before they’re good. Only Livid Shanto…

Episode 57: Dragon Quest XI Collab, Kingdom Hearts Trial, lots of Nostalgia, a bit of Anime, and lots of stupidity 1:07:01

5y ago1:07:01

1:07:01

In this episode we reminisce of times past. We talk a bit about RPGs in general, other Dragon Quest games, Dragon Warrior 3 specifically, Final Fantasy 1, and many other things. We discuss some anime, and perhaps why one of us stopped watching. Finally, we ACTUALLY talk about FFBE content. Kingdom Hearts Collab trial rewards literally suck. The rea…

48:19

In this episode we go over how amazing the free Lovely Katy is! She's surprisingly good for a free unit and makes us happy. AI Katy is the nano machine from the future who can literally do everything. No seriously, she will make you breakfast if you need it. Sora and Khloud are getting their stats reverted to their JP levels, plus some global upgra…

Hey everyone! We had to take a short and abrupt break for just over a month. Wilmgaard had a baby back in early August and the life adjustment has been tough up until now.

In this episode, Miniado and I talk about the newest addition to the Final Fantasy: Brave Exvius: Rivera. She is a conductor, and kind of a musician as well? She does both. We discuss how she fares in this meta, what she can do to bolster your team, and even lightly discuss the viability of support units as a whole. We find that support buffer type…

Elena and Morgana are here! On this episode: our thoughts on Elena's CG limit burst followed by Morgana and Elena unit reviews. Wilmgaard finally takes his punishment: hot sauce to the mouth!

However, Google enforces new app compliance with 64-bit devices. Gumi has come out with this a little earlier than anticipated, so some people are affected. Hopef…

On this week's episode it's the week of many orbs! Between farming, farming, and more farming, hopefully you have time to play FFBE. What's up with the recent raids being devoid of all story content?

We start this week’s show talking about the Dwarven Castle battle where you fight Golbez and his Shadow Dragon. This is a re-run of an old fight, so it’s not too tough. Shadow Dragon will deal lethal fixed damage to one unit every turn, so keep an eye out for that. The rewards aren’t anything special, but some players might still find Shadow Dragon…

Crimson Gear coming at us this week. It’s not too difficult, just remember to dodge. Sadly the War Blade is nothing special, but still a decent pickup for newer players. The main event this week is a rerun of a restocked Tower of Zot, featuring Black Mage Golbez and his archfiends. The other FFIV units also get some bonus for this round of the King…
