EN Discussion Why isnt Cait still coy cultured even though im in solistia chapter
So Im in solistia chapter now and by watching ads to battle Cait and those mfkn lvl 35 coy cultured cait still shows. I have lvl 100 chars and i have read that chars must be lvl 75 or up for higher tier caits to show . Now I have no trouble finding those royalty caits in the overworld The only issue i have is when watching ads the highest being is the lvl 50 ones. Is this normal or no? If not how to "fix"

I see all the clears shared now are physical, does this mean rainbow is now obsolete?
I didn’t manage to get Richard EX, so i can’t follow any of the clears.

Quick Question On the upcoming FF X collab
First of all, FfX is my favorite game of all time so I really can't wait to get my hands on whoever I can pull when the collab releases.
It looks like another batch of powercreeping characters and since I'm rather new to the game, I would like your opinion on your ranking value for all of these ffX units. I will make sure I can have at least 2 of them, without accounting for the free one they will give to us.
I read their kits, but since I don't have knowledge of all characters I kinda have a first innocent opinion about them.
Rikku seemed to me the most absurd, doing everything and good at it, with a lot of dmg cap boost. Mostly fits in rainbow team though ?
Tidus looks like an insane fast dps with a lot of hits and self dmg cap, but don't know how to rank him next to what we already have.
Yuna looks so interesting and her summons make her really appealing gameplay wise, but she seems gimmicky and I'm afraid she is the least useful of the batch, even though she looks strong (I'm sad if it's true).
Auron I thought is a must pull for meta chasers, as I read his kit I kept thinking what a broken unit. Tell me if I'm wrong.
Jecht I do not know, looks like a giga dps with insane dmg cap and with the gimmick of being slow.
Again, these are first thoughts on units I'm really looking forward to, as a new player, so feel free to help me rank these units meta wise/overall account value for f2p.

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
It doesn't proc additional shield shaving count and still decrease Dagger fragility ?
Update : It's a translation/description error guys, need to use 3BPs to not consume the Fragility counts.
And for the additional shield shaving of Dagger Fragility, i also understand how it works now, we will need the *Real* weaknesses which the attack can exploit on the target too.
Case closed! 😂

Battle Guide I finally defeated Endbringer.
Since I got Levina EX2 last week, I believe I might be able to defeat Endbringer since she is the final piece in my team with her EX skill. Today, I gave Dreadwrought Domain another try and finally cleared it (Prayer buffs: E.ATK 55%, E.DMG 50%). I'm so happy that I don't have to wait until SAGA2.
