Thread: [Event 39] Advent Battle vs Medusa and Rahab (Rematch)

so the event is finally confirmed to take place on march 21th (nutaku time), so pretty much march 22 for me.
i bet there is no restock like last rematch, so i don't think i'll do much aside of battle ragnarok levels.
more time to do accessory quest, ragnarok wind raid boss and sp quest lol

The only rematch I couldn't care any less will happen.

Fucking kill me.

Well, what I was hinting at/hoping for with my question was if we could spend the time now to farm up materials to be spent in the 2nd Reprint.

this is the 2nd reprint.. nutaku did it early so they would be on schedule for halloween and christmas since we're a 11 months behind dmm.. we had an extra month to fill in with events.. so we'll only get rewards in the 3rd reprint...

That's not what he asked, he was asking if we can farm mats this run and use them when the next reprint comes with new rewards.

Also, we're 12 months behind DMM now.

actually, yes. i notice i have leftovers from the previous times, even though the trade shop isn't there...

also seems to retain your progress from the first reprint. it did that for the previous ixion/yata event where i had to get one ixid blade and nothing else, but i had ixion from a drop a previous run and could have gotten an extra copy of her

2nd reprints reset the exchange. That is specifically mentioned on the wiki.

Keep in mind, when I say '2nd reprint', I'm not referring to what's coming up next. What's coming up next is a reprint of the 1st reprint. The actual 2nd reprint resets the exchange, significantly lowers the costs of some stuff (especially the eidolon and the original SSR weapon that came with the event), adds 3000 jewels to be exchanged for, adds a 2nd SSR weapon, and introduces the final limit break for the original SSR weapon*. 2nd reprints also come as stand alone events, not paired up with another advent.
Also, the weapons that get final limit breaks? There are 5 of them in the exchange instead of 4. This leads me to assume that final limit breaks do require a copy, on top of everything else. But if anybody who's performed final limit breaks on DMM can confirm or deny the need for a 5th copy, that'd be great.

*after the implementation of Guild Orders. Ixion's 2nd reprint occurred before that, so the Ixion sword doesn't have a final limit break. There's also the usual 4 copies in exchange.

So, I'm curious about whether farming up materials during this 1st reprint-reprint is meaningful to carry stuff over to the 2nd reprint to reduce farming then. Because in addition to whatever you need to farm up for the 2nd copy of the glaive, a copy of the spear (Rahab's 2nd SSR), and the jewels, you'll also need 45 of the silver material and 25 of the gold material for one final limit break of the glaive (plus other stuff).
Oh, and if you managed to acquire 5 copies of the glaive before the 2nd reprint (ie the 4 copies in the exchange + 1 drop, or some other combination), then one can theoretically try to final limit break 2 glaives. Then you'd need 90 silver/50 gold mats.
