Thread: MLB Story Mode Eidolons Question

Hi all,

i have a question regarding the eidolons you can get from the story mode. I know that you can get 4 copies of them from the store and the fifth dropping from the respective eidolon fight, but the chances seem very very low. I read in sanahtlig's guide (thanks for that btw, great help! ) that it takes around 250 AP to get Vine which correlates to 10 tries, so about a 10% drop chance. I farmed Sephiroth over 200 times now and didn't get a copy from it. Do you first need to buy the first 4 copies from the store to get a chance at it dropping or am i just unlucky?

the eidolons in story mode don't drop in chests like the SSR eidos do in advent/raid events, since they're easily farmed
storyline doesn't even have gold chests let alone platinum, just silver and brown..

Why do u even want to MLB those eido though?

You wanted Vine for some teams pre D'Artagnan Relic Weapon

What? No. That's just a rumor. I've never heard of anyone getting an actual copy as a drop.

I am pretty sure you're misunderstanding what that says. I'm am quite confident to say that he meant 250 AP to farm from Nike's Rampage for example, for materials. Nowhere does he say that you should farm Vine fight itself...


You used to be able to buy the last copy, but for some reason, you can't anymore. We don't really know was it a bug that you were able to, or is it a bug that you can't anymore.

Vine is always good if you can only reach 40% Def down with your team. Dartagnan's HP Relic weapon doesn't really solve that, mostly because it's HP instead of Elemental attack. Thunder is shoehorned into it due to lack of debuffs on Hime and the synergy with Mammon.

As time passes, we'll get more and more access to C frames, Element resist- and Weapon/Eidolon Def down effects. That means that eventually, we won't need to rely on Vine anymore. Until then... Vine is amazing.
The biggest change is probably Hercules' Relic weapons, as both of them apply a whopping -25%. Combined with her buffs which make her decent overall as well, there's few reasons to use other Souls afterwards.

Thanks for your replies.

I got the information of the 5th copy dropping from the actual fight from the wiki, that info is therefore either wrong or outdated.
Well, then these eidolon just have to stay at 3 stars. *sadface*

I had no problem getting Vine maxed around her release getting all copies from the shop. Did they change something?

Yes, apparently you can't buy the LMB copy anymore.

We don't know is that on purpose or not.

sucks for me cause I have no copies...

I could still run both SSR Amon and Sniper shot for 45% though so I can manage
