Just a regular day of TT

I use Frixio, Ixal, Scarface, Mutamix, and Memeroon.

If Imperial plays Bahamut to the right, I play Ixal to the top left.
What follows is either Nero or Gaius to capure Ixal on the right. Either way, I'm playing Frixio in the top left corner.
If I captured Nero, then I only have to capture another card, simple task.
If they played Gaius earlier, then I'm baiting out their next card. If they play to the left or the bottom, then I capture both Gaius and Bahamut with a 2 facing their new card. If they play Livia at the bottom left, then I use Memeroon to capture back my Ixal and their Livia.

Then I've won.

If it's my turn first, then Ixal to the top left again. If followed by Bahamut/Nero, then Mutamix to top right; if instead followed by Gaius, then Scarface in middle. If captured Gaius, they'll capture Scarface with Bahamut or Nero; if Bahamut, capture Ixal with Memeroon (leave Bahamut for last); if Nero then capture either Ixal or Nero.

So I did around 30 Dragon Necks between yesterday and today, got 5 Ultros cards and 0 Terra, did 10 or so Big Keeps 0 Bartz and did around 20 Shiva HM and got 0 Shiva.

Result after 60 trials = 5 ultros cards which I already had....
And they are trials, fast stuff you do in 5mins....I'm scared of farming Sastasha, Cutters Cry o DD for those uniques...

The dungeons easily have far better droprates than the Trials/NPC's do. I can't give an exact % estimate but I would say it's probably a fair bit higher than 20%. Personally just missing Ahriman from Dzemeal Darkhold of all dropped & NPC cards and I'm 0/4 on that but Sahagin I went three times to get (hard mode), Demon Wall and Siren about four times and Tonberry (gotten it twice in 1 HM and 2 NM runs total, one in each) and Chimera twice (while every friend I went with in those got it on the first try). Luckily you can get Morbol from a NPC because doing AV with randoms is not fun.

Yeah I've gotten Ahriman both times I ran DD since Triple Triad came out. Have also gotten Tonberry twice running WP normal, but I ran it more than twice. Did not get Sahagin from Sastasha HM but I have to run it for my Zodiac drop so maybe I'll get lucky.

I am thoroughly impressed.

If you don't like the GS then don't go to it. I am thoroughly enjoying the whole thing. The only reason I haven't delved as much into Chocobo Racing is because of TT. I just got my 60 cards and now am trying to get Raubahn for my final NPC won card. I've had a blast.

Bought more packs. Bought 23 Packs 11 packs into it Lahabrea =\ so wasted ~14-15k MGP on extra packs that you cant resell. Opened the 14 and.. another Lahabrea.

zomg. how you get so many damn cards? i played all friggin day between four of them NPC's at the gold saucer. the card-themed ones... i played ALL day and only got 2 cards. i spent well like 2k in MGP on matches. so like... how the hell? lol :(

Well I farmed all the NPCs for their farmable cards. Dungeon Cards rate weren't that bad usually got them in 1-4 runs each. (Excluding Cutters which took 9 runs) Shiva/Moogle I had to farm through Trials. Moogle I got in 2-3 hours Shiva was a nightmare. Bartz/Shiva/Vaan/Terra/Onion Knight combined took a couple days of HARDCORE constant grinding them for ~64 hours of repeating content. Packs I spent the MGP I've gained farming all the NPC cards/Imperial.
