NEW THEATRHYTHM GOOD
My one sadness is that Delita is not an unlockable character :( but Ramza, Orlandeau and Agrias are
But also, when you finish the Tactics Chapter you unlock what functions as the little video song you get to do - I'm ASSUMING it's showing us a sneak peak at that remaster because the models, background and footage look CRISP. Very very excited if this is true
YOU CAN ALSO SEE THAT DELITA IS VERY CLEARLY DARKER SKINNED. WHICH I WAS HAPPY TO SEE AND IM STILL MAD ABOUT THE TREATMENT HES GOTTEN

I kind of headcanon Meliadoul as a Battle Nun (tm), because she's the only official Lady Templar and her sprite portrait makes her hood look like a habit (though Loffrey has his hood styled the same way. I choose to believe this is because he is also a nun). Thirty minutes ago, it was still her birthday! Happy belated birthday, Melly. Sorry about your dad being a Lucavi.
Meliadoul is a better waifu than Agrias and no, I don't care what you think.
#art tag#final fantasy tactics#meliadoul tengille#I forget what they call her in the psx translation#I would love to post this to the fft subreddit#but I really don't feel like arguing with a bunch of dumbasses over how Meliadoul sucks compared to Orlandeau or whatever

hit a snag cos I thought we should actually write out an alluded-to interaction with the Southern Sky generals, which created a number of problems because:
Ovelia never interacts with Goltanna onscreen so we don’t know anything about their relationship. in fact the only Zeltennia characters she talks to are Delita and Orran. it says much that she’s not at their strategy meetings, but it isn’t convenient
Delita interacts with Goltanna plenty but never talks to the other generals, notably Orlandeau. also Elmdore who he literally already knew before becoming a spy
Delita wormed his way in here by (probably) pretending he was working for one of their pals who just died and then (definitely) framing another one for treason before murdering him. Goltanna doesn’t see any of this as a problem because he is denser than uranium. but idk why anyone else would agree.
they are a bunch of old men who don’t have personalities, except for Elmdore who is Sephiroth but a vampire. and he’s not a vampire yet.
so it’s not quite on the level of the Alma timeline, but there is a lot of legwork involved to like, create the illusion any of these one-scene fuddy-duddies have thoughts and feelings or have met one another before. I think it’s ok now but good god.

Between the end of Pandaemonium's story and the end of P5R I've spent a lot of time drowning in bittersweet angst lately.

Final Fantasy Record Keeper Daily Free Draws Part 6
Every day, you get 1 free single draw on the Final Fantasy Record Keeper (FFRK) mobile game. The banner you can do this on is extremely bloated though.
It has basically all the relics on this game and the rates are crappy as always and there are no guarantees, but there is a very rare chance to get something good from this draw.
More often than not though, you’re more likely to just end up with bronze or silver trash.
Sure, I’ve gotten some good pulls from this before but that’s few and far between. It’s so rare that it might as well be nonexistent.
Anyway, a short while or so after Final Fantasy Record Keeper announced that it was gonna end its service on September 29, 2022 (I talk more about that in another post), we also got the news that the daily free single draw will now be a daily free 10-draw until the game closes.
On one hand, this is great news because I want to be able to clear as much of FFRK’s content as I can before the game ends.
I’m missing a lot of relics though, so I doubt I’ll be able to clear everything unless I can get more useful Soul Breaks.
But on the other hand, as far as I’m aware, Final Fantasy Record Keeper didn’t change or update the rates or anything.
We may be getting 10 items instead of just 1 per day, but there are still no guarantees so you’re still really likely to end up with trash as opposed to anything useful.
In fact, that’s exactly what I’ve been experiencing. More often than not, whenever I do the daily free 10-draw, I just end up seeing a combination of 10 bronze and silver orbs, which just feels bad, man.
Sometimes, I get 1 or more 5-star items but these relics have been heavily powercrept by now and most, if not all, of them are now Lensable so it’s just completely and utterly disappointing to get these Soul Breaks instead of a 6-star or a 7-star that could be of use to me.
Heck, there are even 6-stars and 7-stars that are also useless so I really wish FFRK had at least made it so the daily 10-draw guaranteed at least one 6-star item or something.
Maybe they could have adjusted the rates too or something. I mean, really, why not? After all, the game’s ending soon.
Anyway, decided that I’ll only bother to take screenshots of the results of these pulls if I actually get something that could be classified as either good, useful, or interesting, or something.
One daily free draw gave me 2 5-stars and 1 6-star. The 5-stars were new but was still disappointed to see them anyway so didn’t bother checking who they belonged to.
One was a Glint Soul Break (G) for a Final Fantasy III char while the other was a Burst Soul Break (BSB) for a Final Fantasy VI char. These kinds of Soul Breaks are really outdated and powercrept by now so meh.
The 6-star was new too. It turned out to be the Awakened Arcane Soul Break (AASB) of Garnet Til Alexandros XVII from Final Fantasy IX. Nice.
Pleased to have gotten an Awakening from this pull although this is like my first BDL relic for Garnet so I doubt I’ll be able to use her for endgame content unless I can get more of her Soul Breaks.
Another daily free draw gave me 1 5-star and 1 6-star. The 5-star was a new Super Soul Break (SSB) for a Final Fantasy XIII char. Since it’s a fist-type weapon and it’s from FF13, I’m guessing this belongs to Snow Villiers from Final Fantasy 13.
The 6-star turned out to be the AASB2 of Sephiroth from Final Fantasy VII (#ad). Actually really pleased to see this. Never thought that I’d be able to get this Soul Break.
See, the thing is, I actually currently have most of Sephiroth’s Soul Breaks. Before getting his AASB2, I was only missing 5 of his relics.
Three of those are Lensable. The reason why I haven’t bothered to Lens the relics I’m missing for him is because they’re all useless and outdated by now, and I don’t really need them.
Well, I suppose his Arcane Overstrike Soul Break (AOSB) for the fire element is usable enough, but I don’t really need it so meh.
The 2 relics that I’m missing for Sephi that aren’t Lensable are his AASB2 and his Dual Awakening Soul Break 1 (DASB1).
It’s been a long time since Seph’s AASB2 was featured on a banner. Never got the chance to pull for it. Was always hoping that it’d eventually be Lensable but that hope died when the game gave its end of service announcement.
Never would have thought that I’d be able to get my very first copy of Sephiroth’s AASB2 via the daily free draw. Really happy to see this.
Anyway, as for Sephiroth’s DASB1 - a while back (maybe a month or so), we had the Summer Sun Festival 2022 event.
The Summer Sun 2022 Festival banner 3 included a couple of new relics for Sephiroth. I talk more about how my pulls on that banner went on this post. Here, I’ll just say it turned out to be a complete and total disaster.
The entire fest was a disaster, an absolute waste of mythril, and really made me hate this game. I mean, I don’t want it to end but man, the rates here really suck.
Anyway, the point is that, although I spent hundreds of mythril, I failed to get Sephiroth’s DASB1 because eff this game and its crappy rates.
Now I feel like I’ll never be able to get Seph’s Dual unless a miracle happens or something.
I know it doesn’t really matter, and it’s not like Sephi is even my fave char or anything but still. I hate this, especially since I already have most of his relics. If only I’d been able to get his DASB1 on fest banner 3. Sigh.
Another daily free draw gave me 1 5-star and 2 6-stars. The 5-star was a new Glint Soul Break for a Final Fantasy XIII char. Since this is a staff or rod-type weapon, pretty sure this belongs to Oerba Dia Vanille from Final Fantasy 13.
One of the 6-stars was a dupe Ultra Soul Break (USB) that belongs to Cloud Strife from Final Fantasy VII. Meh.
The other 6-star was a new AASB that belongs to Cidolfus Orlandeau from Final Fantasy Tactics. Nice. Have one of Orlandeau's Synchro Arcane Soul Breaks (SASB) so this Awakening gives me another BDL relic for him and makes him usable.
Another daily free draw gave me 2 6-stars. Unfortunately, both were dupes. The first was a USB for a Final Fantasy X char while the second was the AASB of Hope Estheim from Final Fantasy XIII. It really sucks to get an Awakening only for it to turn out to be a dupe. Eff this game.
Another daily free draw gave me 1 5-star and 1 6-star. The 5-star was a new Legend Materia Relic (LMR) for a Final Fantasy VIII char. Judging from the weapon-type (a staff), pretty sure this belongs to Selphie Tilmitt from Final Fantasy 8.
The 6-star was a new Awakening for Meliadoul Tengille from Final Fantasy Tactics. IIRC, this is like my first BDL relic for Meliadoul.
Another daily free draw gave me 1 6-star and 1 5-star. The 5-star was a Glint Soul Break for a Final Fantasy III char. It’s new but meh.
But surprisingly, the 6-star turned out to be the Awakened Arcane Soul Break 2 (AASB2) of the Emperor from Final Fantasy II. It’s new and this is actually my first BDL relic for the Emperor.
Having only 1 BDL relic wouldn’t make the Emperor usable but thankfully, his AASB1 is Lensable.
Only have a few FF2 relics so more is always welcome, especially since I haven’t cleared the Final Fantasy II Dragonking Dungeon quest yet.
Another daily free draw gave me 1 5-star and 1 6-star. The 5-star was a Super Soul Break for a Final Fantasy VI char. It’s new but meh. Useless.
The 6-star turned out to be the AASB2 of Meia from Mobius Final Fantasy. Hell, yes! Was super pleased when I saw this. What a pleasant surprise.
Some of Meia’s Soul Breaks were featured in a water banner that showed up recently. I really need more water tech, not to mention more Final Fantasy I tech, so I pulled on this banner.
This was after we’d already gotten the news that FFRK was gonna end soon so there was no longer any reason to save my mythril.
I talk more about this in another post, but was able to get a few of Meia’s Soul Breaks, including her Dual Awakening Soul Break (DASB) and her Synchro Arcane Soul Break (SASB). Unfortunately, I missed out on her AASB2.
At least her AASB1 was Lensable although I haven’t gotten it yet since I haven’t had the chance to try out the Final Fantasy I Dragonking Dungeon quest or any other fight that might require Meia and a magical water team.
Meia’s AASB2 is way better than her AASB1 so I’m really glad that I was eventually able to get said Awakening. Now I have multiple BDL relics for her.
Meia is a really good DPS so it feels like my chances of being able to win the FF1 Dragonking fight just went up.
End of Final Fantasy Record Keeper Mobile Game
And that’s it. It’s all over now. At the time I’m writing this part of this post, it’s way past September 29, 2022 so FFRK has just ended its service. Ahh, I still wish that this didn’t have to happen now or anytime soon.
I tried but sadly, wasn’t able to finish all the content in Final Fantasy Record Keeper before the end. I talk more about that in another post.
Also unfortunately didn’t get much of a chance to really use some of the new relics that I just got from all these free daily 10-draws. I wish we got more time before the game ended.
Never got to use Garnet. With only one BDL relic for her, it would have been near impossible to bring her to endgame content but since FFRK was ending already anyway, I wish that I’d been able to try her out in battle even if it’s just against an easy boss or something.
Also never got to use Orlandeau. IIRC, I did get to use Meliadoul like once or twice maybe but that was way back and way before I got her AASB on one of these free daily 10-draws.
After getting her Awakening, didn’t get the chance to try out Meliadoul in battle. Also, I’d been meaning to take on the Final Fantasy Tactics Dragonking Dungeon quest but I ran out of time.
Didn’t get to try out the Emperor in battle either. I’d been meaning to Lens his AASB1 so I’d have 2 BDL relics for him. Then I could have tried the Final Fantasy II Dragonking Dungeon quest but also never got the chance to do that.
At least I actually got to use Meia even if it wasn’t as much as I wanted. IIRC, I did Lens her AASB1. Got to use Meia in battle a few times and she’s really good.
I’d been meaning to try her out in the Final Fantasy I Dragonking Dungeon quest but unfortunately never got the chance to do so.
Meia and the rest of my magical water elemental team did help me beat one of the Bahamut quests though. I talk more about that in another post.
Even got 2 new Magicites after beating Bahamut. These Magicites are so much more powerful than the ones I already have and helped me beat even more content. I really wish that I had the time to do even more before it was all over.
As for Sephiroth - well, he’s on my physical fire elemental team and that’s the party I use basically all the time so I did get to use him a lot. But I don’t think I really got the chance to try out his AASB2 though.
Since I have plenty of other BDL relics for Sephi and since those Soul Breaks are way better than his Awakening 2, I prioritize casting them. I’ll only really use his AASB2 after I’ve already used up all of his other BDL relics, and that’s assuming the fight is still ongoing.
Decided to Lens the rest of Sephiroth’s relics that I’m missing and that are available in the The Record Lab. After all, there’s no point in saving anything anymore.
Now the only thing I’m missing for Sephiroth is his Dual Awakening Soul Break 1. Still so, so, so upset that I failed to get said relic. Eff this game. I really wish that I’d gotten the chance to try it out. Sigh.
Another thing that’s really upsetting is the way Final Fantasy Record Keeper ended. Its end feels so anticlimactic. Truly a letdown of epic proportions. The game could have tried to do more before everything ended.
But instead, even before the end, FFRK felt dead already. We stopped getting any new events long before the end.
We got a special banner and some tickets that we could use to pull on said banner. I talk more about that in another post, but we’d get like 1 ticket per day as part of some login bonus campaign or something.
That only lasted for like 30 days or so though. But why couldn’t they have made it last until the end? Why couldn’t they have given us more free pulls?
Why couldn’t they have adjusted the rates or something? Why couldn’t they have made it so that these daily free 10-draws would give us at least 1 6-star or 7-star Soul Break or something?
They didn’t even refresh the Realm and Elemental banners or given us more mythril and Realm/Elemental x11 tickets.
The game could have gone out with a bang but it feels like it all just ended in disappointment.
Conclusion
So, what about you? What relics did you get from the daily free draws? What do you think about the daily free draw banner? What do you think about the fact that Final Fantasy Record Keeper is all over now? Feel free to share your thoughts and opinions by leaving a comment below or by reblogging this post.

Preliminary Round: Final Fantasy
Propaganda Below cut
Alisaie
When she first shows up she's wearing matching outfits and wielding matching grimoires with her twin brother, but when she properly joins the game's main cast it becomes clear that she has swordswoman energy so incredibly strong that as a magical prodigy her chosen fighting style is "manifest sword out of aether and then hit people with it." She later simplifies this to merely wielding a sicknasty crystal rapier; As we know, fury and compassionate outrage are more powerful under when concentrated, which makes this tiny elf sword nerd a volatile pressurecooker of heroism. She's here to care about the little guy, make frustrated noises, and charge off to solve and/or cause problems, and truly what else is swordswoman energy about?
She wanted to use a sword so bad she summoned one made of pure magic, before a friend gave her an actual sword because he was worried about the toll summoning a sword made of pure magic was having on her, I love her and her brother so much. One of them is trans (they did the identical but different-gender twins thing). At one point Alisaie mopes because her and her brother didn't get new outfits when everyone else did. She then jumps off of a balcony because she saw an opportunity for adventure. Canonically doesn't like pickles on burgers (she put them on someone else's plate!! the scandal!!)
Lucia
she fights with a sword and shield— very classic paladin flavor. she’s achieved and maintained high ranking status for her combat prowess!; nobody is immune to hot lady knight especially when she is over six feet tall and in full plate armor tbh . easily the hottest defector from the evil empire in xiv. also she can pilot a big robot so that’s automatically a point in her favor imo
Mylla
She's the leader of the gladiator's guild. Gladiators are the class that use swords and shields. She kind of gets sidelined once it upgrades to the Paladin job for a bit, but then they went 'no Mylla and her guild are cooler than these idiots' and did a tournament arc
Lightning
She uses a Gunblade. A sword thats also a gun. Said to be very rare because it takes so much skill to use. Does lots of slashing and backflips. Later becomes Champion of A God and sword fights a guy for eternity. Later becomes champion of a Different god and uses lots of different swords; She is dramatic and has lots of character growth and is awesome.
Agrias
She has the class Holy Knight which enables her to use Holy Sword techniques as long as she has a sword equipped, which pretty much makes her the most powerful swordfighter your party can recruit (with the exception of Cidolfus Orlandeau, who has her skillset plus extra); You meet Agrias at the start of the game, and it's a few chapters before she joins your party permanently during which she gets quite a bit of screentime. This is significant, since Tactics lets you dismiss any character that's not the protagonist, and consequently the story is written to not assume you have any particular character in your party except for guests, meaning Agrias gets more story time than most characters that join your party.
Paine
starts out as a swordfighter with a big sword with a skull design. #girlboss; ffx-2 is a Wild Ride already but that they gave us a goth lesbian with a sword as our third party member was a great choice. i love her and also ffx-2. it's underappreciated.
Terra
Swords are one kind of weapon she can wield. Her ultimate weapon is known as Apocalypse.
Celes
She was turned into a Magitek knight by the Gestahlian Empire which she betrays. Swords are one kind of weapon she can wield. Her ultimate weapon is a sword known as Save the Queen.

I know I talk about the cutscenes a lot, to everyone, forever, all the time, but the facial expressions Ramza makes while Delita is explaining The Plan just get me.
Delita: Cut off one head, and two more spring forth. So of course their closest allies must die with them. Count Orlandeau of the Order of the Southern Sky. Zalbaag of the Northern.
(Bonus Delita crotch shot)
Ramza: Yes, absolutely, this is my Listening Face
Delita: And of course, Lord Dycedarg.
Ramza: ... that bitch.
And the classic “Where the fuck is that loud-ass piano music coming from”
