Awesome guide! Wish I looked up guides back when I started. This would have been amazing to have. Glad the newer players for steam will be able to see this.

Still watched it even when I am a day 1 player. Very good presentation as an introductory to the game. I think there is going to be an insane flux of new players with the steam edition so veterans need to have a bit of patience and willingness to help the new people both on the discord and on reddit. We want more people playing, not scaring them away.

starting over on steam after 5 months without playing, i needed this guide lol

Not sure if Payne said anything about the CO-ops, but if you come to higher level CO-ops bring right equipment, right sigil breaks and your own heals. Nobody want to carry a totally worthless character.
Harder fights are hard for a reason. If you bring a healer(Earith, Matt) heal. So that the DPS don't have to concentrate and worry about their HP. Learn the fights and bring something to table. Even if it is a sigil breaks, heals or buffs/breaks.
Learn when to use your limit burst. Stacked LB's do more damage. 2 LB's give 1.1 multiplier, 3 LB's 1.25 multiplier.

Viewers, Payne is a pro's pro with GREAT insight and a GREAT Discord community. Listen to this man!

[jethbodi]

Good to see you again. The game just launched SEA server yesterday.

[samuraiknight]

Listen to this man all just starting he knows what he is talking about!

[wiseguise]

Great guide Payne! Hopefully a lot of people see this. I definitely messed up my first draw when I stared the game. I only did like 3 resets and took a draw with 1 5 star weapon for Cloud. I should have pulled for Fairy Tale, but I honestly didn't feel the need for it with having Aeriths healing LB. I made my team hyper offense and then eventually started putting Fairy Tale in my wishlist.

Man that was a mouthful I am going to send you bottle of waters pre videos brother lol...Great video extremely informative! Excited for steam launch going to be great!

[alexanderruffin]

How many times you rerolled when you started to play?

[algaliarept]

8:25 You're saying here that Aerith, Cloud and Sephiroth can do anything. At the same time, you're also saying that we should focus on a main DPS and a debuffer, while both Cloud and Sephiroth are DPS characters. Who acts as a debuffer in this constellation? Or are both DPS with debuff options?

I'm a huge Sephiroth fan and definitely want to use him as my main character - as much as the content allows - with Aerith as the healer. Currently I actually use Cloud as a third character and then divide my debuffs...

While I was watching the video, I realized again how much this game actually offers and how much you have to do... As a complete newbie, it can be quite overwhelming, so I think it's good that have made such a beginner's guide.

PS: Am I correct that the Steam version is missing the 2x 50 crystals that you can get through advertising. Then you definitely have a reason to log in to the mobile phone version at least once a day.

[unskillfullymasterful]

its probably best to go for the current banner element or arcanum if you guys are just starting

[alister]

is there any better way to add fren in this game?

[yilei]

Pretty helpful to help understand where to put stamina, however not all content unlock from start. Would be great to sort them in order. You said a lot of things are very important or great... a bit lost on the priorities.

[faturamentocucau]

I have started to play last week and saw the samurai garb and i would like very much to have it. for what you said i can´t get it anymore?
