Final Fantasy Record Keeper Vincent Valentine Updated Relics and Stats List

In the Final Fantasy Record Keeper (FFRK) mobile game, Final Fantasy VII is the realm where I have the most relics. That’s because FF7 is my fave realm in this game.

If there’s a Final Fantasy VII banner or if a Final Fantasy VII char is featured on a banner, I almost always pull on said banner.

This post is all about Vincent Valentine from Final Fantasy VII and Dirge of Cerberus: Final Fantasy VII and all the Soul Breaks that I currently have for him as well as his current stats and such.

Final Fantasy Record Keeper End of Service Announcement

Unfortunately, Final Fantasy Record Keeper just recently announced that it was gonna end its service on September 29, 2022. I talk more about that in another post.

I really wish this didn’t have to happen. I don’t want FFRK to end, at least not anytime soon.

Anyway, I’m hoping to be able to finish as much of FFRK’s content as I can before everything ends on September 29, 2022. I talk more about that in another post.

I also want to take screenshots of a couple of stuff in the game before the end.

Vincent Valentine Relics List

Here’s a list of all the relics that I have for Vincent Valentine from Final Fantasy VII (#ad) and Dirge of Cerberus: Final Fantasy VII:

Limit Break Overstrike (LBO), Galian Scratch

Chain Soul Break (CSB), Cerberus Soul

Synchro Arcane Soul Break 1 (SASB1), Bestial Claws

SASB2, Chaos Saber

Awakened Arcane Soul Break 1 (AASB1), Chthonian Blaze

AASB2, Galian Saber

Ultra Soul Break 1 (USB1), Lucrecia's Lament

USB2, Dirge of Cerberus

Glint+ Soul Break (G+), Munitions Reload

Glint Soul Break (G), Forsaken Power

Burst Soul Break 2 (BSB2), Flame Penalty

Default Soul Break, Head Shot

Legend Materia 1, Turk Among Turks

Legend Materia 2, Beast Within

Legend Materia Relic 1 (LMR1), Seeing Red

Missing 6 or 7 of Vincent’s Soul Breaks:

True Arcane Soul Break (TASB) or Arcane Dyad Soul Break (ADSB), Satan Slam

USB3, Marksman's Spite

BSB1, Galian Beast

Super Soul Break 1 (SSB1), Cerberus Shell

SSB2, Bestial Roar

Unique Soul Break, Chain Shot

LMR2, Beastly Aspect

Unfortunately, FFRK ended before I had the chance to take more screenshots of Vincent’s relics, stats, character profiles, and such.

Wasn’t able to take a screenshot of the Materia tab of his relics list, and now I can’t remember for sure if I have his LMR2 or not.

This one gives him fastcast 3 on battle start but I don’t think I’ve ever used this. Pretty sure I always have Vincent equipped with his LMR1 and his Legend Materia 2.

His LMR1 gives him a chance to dualcast fire-type abilities while Beast Within powers him up and restores his HP back to full when it drops to a low amount during battle.

I remember picking Vincent’s Glint+ Soul Break from the Final Fantasy Record Keeper Summer Sun Relic Draw Stamp Sheet Glint Soul Break or Legend Materia Relic select. I talk more about this in another post.

Vincent’s Glint+ is great because it instantly gives him 2 bars so I can have him cast his Chain or one of his BDL relics as soon as the battle starts or whenever I want him to.

Anyway, of the relics that I know for sure that I’m missing for Vincent, the only one that I can’t get from the The Record Lab by using Anima Lenses is his TASB.

Even his LMR2 is Lensable though I still can’t remember for sure if I already have this or not.

If the game was still ongoing, I’m pretty sure I wouldn’t have bothered to Lens this. Also wouldn’t bother Lensing the other relics that I’m missing for Vincent because they’re all outdated by now, and getting them would just be a waste of resources, especially if I’m not gonna use them anyway.

But with the news that FFRK was coming to an end, I wouldn’t have minded spending the Lenses needed to get these relics. After all, there was no more point in saving any of the resources and materials and such in this game.

Too bad Final Fantasy Record Keeper ended before I had the chance to get all of Vincent’s Lensable relics.

It’s also too bad that I never got his TASB. I’d been meaning to try pulling for it whenever it returned on a banner because it was the only relic that I’m missing for Vincent that I can’t Lens. But now I’ll never be able to get it since the game is over by now. Sigh.

Vincent Valentine Info

In Final Fantasy Record Keeper, Vincent Valentine is a hybrid DPS slash support who deals fire elemental damage.

As a hybrid char, Vincent can be made to deal either magical fire or physical fire damage depending on which stat of his is currently higher.

If his MAG stat is higher, then he’ll deal magical damage. If his ATK stat is higher, then he’ll deal physical damage.

Vincent has one of the best magical fire Chains in the game. He can equip the Machinist ability that has the chance to imperil the fire element. He has Soul Breaks that allow him to imperil fire.

Vincent deals pretty good damage while also supporting the party via his imperils and Chain.

Fire is my favorite and strongest element in Final Fantasy Record Keeper because that’s the element of Genesis Rhapsodos from Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII.

Currently, Genesis is my absolute, most fave Final Fantasy char. He’s the reason why I’m playing Final Fantasy Record Keeper.

So I always try to bring Genesis to every fight, even the ones with enemies that resist fire and/or aren’t naturally weak to fire.

I’m always looking to improve my physical fire team. Genesis is my main DPS, of course, but I’m always on the lookout for secondary physical fire DPS and other chars who could help make my fire team the best it can possibly be.

When I got 2 BDL relics for Vincent, he became part of my phsysical fire elemental team as my secondary DPS who could also help imperil fire.

Vincent was also on my magical fire team since he can be a magical DPS too. His CSB is really good so he’s also my Chain holder for my magical fire team.

I remember getting Vincent’s Sync 2 on the Final Fantasy VII Inherited Blade banner.

This one has a bonus effect depending on how many Final Fantasy VII chars you have in your party, so it’s not necessarily better than Vincent’s Sync 1.

I’d bring Vincent’s Sync 2 if I’m taking a full Final Fantasy VII party to a fight but I’d opt for his Sync 1 if I only have 1 or 2 FF7 chars in my team.

If I could, I would have readily brought both Syncs. But the thing is each char can only equip 1 Sync at a time, which is really too bad. Vincent will be even better if I could use both of his Syncs on the same fight.

Anyway, Vincent’s AASB2 was also featured on the Final Fantasy VII Inherited Blade banner. Thankfully, I was also able to pull for this Soul Break. I talk more about my pulls on this banner in this post.

Vincent’s AASB2 is definitely better than his AASB1. But at least I don’t have to choose between the 2 because there’s no limit to the number of Awakenings each char can equip.

Getting more BDL relics for Vincent just made him even better and has really helped to cement his place on my fire team.

Got to use Vincent in a lot of fights. I remember that he was part of my team when I went to take on the physical and fire-weak version of White Odin or Argent Odin. This is a quest level 600 fight. I talk more about this fight in this post.

Vincent was also part of my team when I took on the magical and fire-weak version of Argent Odin. I talk more about that in this post.

When I got more of Sephiroth’s (from Final Fantasy VII) fire-type Soul Breaks, I started using Vincent less in my physical fire team. That’s because Sephiroth became my secondary DPS.

Sephi doesn’t really offer anything other than damage but the damage he deals is really good.

The fire imperils from Vincent are helpful and important but the thing is that I do always have Balthier (Ffamran mied Bunansa) from Final Fantasy XII as part of my physical fire team.

Balthier’s Chain Soul Break is one of the best physical fire Chains in FFRK. I’m really glad I have this relic because it really helps to boost the damage output of my fire chars.

As a result of having Balthier’s fire Chain, he’s always a part of my fire team alongside Genesis.

Balthier can equip the Machinist ability that has the chance to imperil fire. He also has a Legend Materia that gives him the chance to imperil fire. He even has an Ultra Soul Break that lowers the enemy’s resistance to the fire element by 2 levels.

So it’s not like I really need Vincent to imperil fire although having him around does mean that I can quickly max out an enemy’s resistance to the fire element.

The point is that between Sephiroth and Vincent, Sephi deals more damage so I started using him more and more as my secondary DPS, especially once I started getting more BDL relics for him.

Vincent is still part of my magical fire team since he’s still one of my top DPS for magical fire and his fire CSB is still one of the best magical fire Chains in the game.

If I can make it work, my physical fire team would usually be Genesis, Sephiroth, Vincent, and Balthier with the fifth char being a healer and buffer.

This slot was usually filled by either Lenna Charlotte Tycoon from Final Fantasy V, Elarra from Final Fantasy Record Keeper, or Aeris or Aerith Gainsborough from Final Fantasy VII.

On really hard fights, this team will unfortunately not work though. I’d need to bring a support like Tyro from Final Fantasy Record Keeper instead of another damage dealer like Vincent.

An example was when I took on the physical-weak version of Snow Giant, the boss of the Labyrinth Nexus Season 2, Part 1 dungeon in the Labyrinth Dungeons. This quest is level 650. I talk more about this fight in this post.

Vincent is still part of my Final Fantasy VII realm team since said team has basically become a fire team too. This happened once I got more fire relics for Sephiroth and Barret Wallace from Final Fantasy VII.

I remember that I was able to clear the Final Fantasy VII Dragonking Dungeon quest level 630 fight with Genesis, Sephiroth, Vincent, Balthier, and Aerith.

Even managed to sub-30 this fight with the battle ending at 26.95 seconds. I talk more about that in this post.

Glad I got to use Vincent a lot in Final Fantasy Record Keeper. Wish I’d been able to get more of his relics and gotten to use him even more.

Vincent Valentine Hero Artifacts and Hero Ability

My Vincent is currently equipped with his Hero Artifacts:

Level 99 of 99 Death Penalty (VII)

Level 99 of 99 Vincent’s Bandana (VII-DoC)

Level 1 of 1 Vincent’s Boots (VII)

Both weapon and armor have been augmented up to Level 5 of 99.

Unfortunately, wasn’t able to double-check if I’d been able to get the best passives for all of Vincent’s Hero Artifacts. I think one or 2 of his Arts have the best passives.

Anyway, I also created Vincent’s Hero Ability. It’s a Machinist-type ability called Beast Flare. Vincent’s currently equipped with that and the Burnt Offering ability.

Vincent Valentine Stats

Vincent currently has the following stats:

ATK - 878

MAG - 895

ACC - 126

DEF - 448

RES - 538

EVA - 130

MND - 90

SPD - 182

Vincent Valentine Magia Crystals

Currently, Vincent has 489 Magia points. Unfortunately, wasn’t able to take a screenshot of his Magia Crystals list before the game ended.

But I’m positive that Vincent used to have 100 points in his Magic Magia Crystal and 100 in his Attack Magia Crystal. Then I reset his points so he didn’t have any in his Magic Magia Crystal anymore.

This was because Vincent has a higher magic stat when compared to his attack stat. Whenever I tried to gear Vincent to deal physical damage, he still ended up with a higher magical stat anyway.

This was back when Vincent was still a prominent part of my physical fire team and when my magical fire team wasn’t that good or fully built yet. So I wanted Vincent to deal more physical damage.

I don’t think I ever got to bring Vincent’s Magic Magia Crystal back to 100 points. Even without this though, Vincent still has a higher magic stat anyway. It’s kind of infuriating.

As for the rest of his Magia points, pretty sure 100 went to his Fire Magia Crystal. His HP Magia Crystal should have 100 points as well then the rest should be split between his DEF and RES Magia Crystals.

Vincent Valentine Crystal Water Points

Wasn’t able to take a screenshot but I’m pretty sure that my Vincent has max Crystal Waters for the following stats: ATK, MAG, HP, DEF, and RES.

Vincent Valentine Character Profile

Each char in Final Fantasy Record Keeper has a Character Profile. This has 2 tabs - Overview and Hero Record.

Unfortunately, wasn’t able to take screenshots of Vincent’s Overview and Hero Record.

But here’s some of what is listed under the Overview tab of Vincent’s Character Profile:

Vincent’s Role is listed as Offensive Magic, which isn’t entirely accurate since Vincent is a hybrid char so he could be a physical DPS too.

Under the Special Traits heading is the following text:

Proficient with a variety of weapons and armor, with a focus on guns and rods. Can use rare black magic abilities, buffing his Magic to deal heavy elemental magic damage.

The Hero Record tab of Vincent’s Character Profile has the following text:

A gunslinger who slept in a coffin in the Shinra Mansion for many years, Vincent is one of the few who knows Sephiroth's true origin. Vincent has been surgically altered, giving him eternal youth and the ability to change into a variety of beasts.

If Vincent had any costumes, it would have been listed in the Hero Record tab under the Wardrobe Records heading. Too bad Vincent doesn’t have any alt outfits in this game.

Ugh. I’m really annoyed that I wasn’t able to take more Vincent-related screenshots before Final Fantasy Record Keeper ended. Wish I’d been able to take more notes and info and such about all of this. Sigh.

It really sucks that the game is all over now. I really wish we could have gotten more time to play FFRK.

Conclusion

So what about you? What do you think about Vincent Valentine from Dirge of Cerberus: Final Fantasy VII and Final Fantasy VII? Do you have a lot of Soul Breaks for him? 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 or replying to this post.

One of the reasons I'll probably not get into another mobile game ever again is the one mobile game I ever got into, and that was Final Fantasy Record Keeper (which incidentally shut down its Global servers recently).

The idea of picking a party out of your favourite characters across the series is such a great and appealing concept, but then you get Gacha Game design where actually getting the stuff to make a character viable is entirely down to RNG. On top of that, you have the characters who just get shafted by the designers while others are clearly the designers' favourites. Want some cool Warrior of Light swag? Too bad, the devs need to give Beatrix her 12,434,634th relic. Then they just added more mechanics that amounted to "winning requires having these relics" and the game became obsessed with its chain mechanics and it just went yadda yadda.

Also, it had the big problem where some of the characters' ability selections were...very stupid, to say the least. This ranges from the "obvious dev favourites" (i.e. Rikku having more five-star skills than 99% of the characters) to "lucky to have one five-star skill". The most ridiculous realm for this was Type-0, where they made both Queen and Machina into Spellblade users (and very crap Spellblades, at that) but guess who they didn't give Spellblade to?

Seven.

Whose ability in Type-0, Elementalash, is literally synonymous with Spellblade.

Whumptober Day 14: Drown

Now on AO3!

Fandom: Final Fantasy: Record Keeper

A/N: Had to do a bit of research on this one. This idea is a treat for me; it gives me a chance to torture Keme as usual LOL!

Drusus, Keme, Veles, Taika, and Aric all belong to me. Everything else belongs to Square Enix!

TAGS: @gala1981

CONTENT: Drowning, near death experience, CPR, strong language, panic attack, death mention

ENJOY!

_____

@whumptober Day 14: Flare | Water Inhalation | "Just hold on."

Under Junon was a quaint place, according to Cloud before Keme and the team entered the seventh realm. And Keme could see why. The area was filled with beautiful sights, including the beach that was known as the Dolphin Offing. Despite his fear of water, Keme had to admit that Cloud was right; the area was beautiful, and he would love to vacation here someday if Dr. Mog and the other Record Keepers allowed it. Perhaps on his and Drusus' anniversary, they would come here.

As of now, the group separated, with Veles, Taika, and Tyro out to the town nearby to gather some supplies, while Drusus and Keme walked together towards the Dolphin Offing.

"Man," Keme sighed in a daydreamy manner, watching the sea's waves crash on the surface, "I have to hand it to Cloud, this place is beautiful!"

"I was honestly worried that you wouldn't want to go due to your fear of water," Drusus attempted to joke, a smirk on his face. He punched his husband's shoulder slightly in a playful manner. "I never expected you to say that about the sea."

"Oh shush," Keme chuckled, giving Drusus a playful punch to his shoulder back. "I can appreciate the sea without going in it. Not gonna risk myself like that."

"You know that I can keep you safe while you're in the water," Drusus reminded, reaching down to take his husband's hand and squeezing it. "There's no need to be scared about it."

"I appreciate the offer," Keme said with a smirk, squeezing Drusus' hand back, "but like I said, not risking it."

"Your loss," Drusus merely shrugged.

The two glanced around the beach, searching for any clues. According to Dr. Mog, a monster known as Bottomswell lived here, and had attacked a girl named Priscilla that Cloud and his group had to rescue. The monster had to be here somewhere, but from what the two could see, there was no monster or enemy here.

"See anything?" Keme called to his husband, who was a few feet away from him. Drusus was still searching, but despite his best efforts, he couldn't find the monster at all. He turned and shook his head sadly.

"I haven't seen anything here. Just the beach," Drusus called back.

Keme's heart jumped. If the Bottomswell wasn't around the sand, could it mean that it was…

Drusus seemed to have the same idea, as he approached the sea. Keme's panic rose then, as he rushed forward to pull his husband back by the arm.

"No," Keme gasped, his heart pounding in his chest. "I'm not letting you go out there."

Drusus turned to face his beloved, his frown intensifying. "Babe, there's no other way to find it. It has to be in the sea."

"Don't you see?" Keme argued, gesturing at the wide sea that was in front of the two. "The place is huge! You'll easily get lost if you go out there!"

"Then…" Drusus sighed, shaking his head. "What should we do? We can't just wait around until it comes. It would likely attack us quickly if we do that."

"What other choice do we—" Keme tried to argue, only to stop when the two heard and felt rumbling on the beach. No, not on the beach; in the sea.

Keme released Drusus then, pulling out his dagger, ready to strike as soon as the attacker reared its head. Drusus did the same, pulling out his Nunchakus, aimed for the large bubbling that was close to the shore.

Something was coming from the sea. Was it the Bottomswell? Was it a regular enemy?

Before both of them could react, a large silhouette emerged from the water, letting out a deafening roar. Drops of water dripped down from its colorful scales, as it reared its head back. Something was forming in its mouth that neither of the men could see.

Drusus recognized it almost immediately. "The Bottoms—"

He didn't get a chance to react. The Bottomswell spat out a large bubble, aimed directly at Keme. It came at him fast; he didn't have time to dodge. Before he knew it, the bubble submerged him, trapping him inside.

The moment he felt cold water touching his skin, he panicked, flailing inside the bubble as a panic attack began to rise in his chest. Oh Cosmos, nothing but this again! NOTHING BUT THIS!

"KEME!" Drusus screamed, eyes wide as he watched his husband struggle in the bubble for a moment. He remembered what this monster could do now; the Bottomswell used an attack that could trap a victim in a Waterpolo, and then drown them in the Waterpolo.

Drown—OH FUCK!

Drusus' panic grew then. Keme's fear of water. The way he was panicking. He would surely drown if he couldn't get him out of there!

Drusus turned to face the Bottomswell, ready to fight it, but as fast as it appeared, it disappeared into the water, never to submerge again. Drusus struggled to fight the urge to follow it; he needed to save Keme, and fast!

He rushed towards his panicking love, his hand reached out in order to pull Keme out of there. As soon as he touched it, he was unable to dip his hand inside the Waterpolo. Panic rose further, and Drusus' breathing grew more frantic as he tried to find ways to get Keme out of there. Keme banged on the bubble with his fists, eyes wide in fear and panic, as he tried to hold his breath to no avail. The panic attack had reached to a boil, and Keme began to gasp, swallowing water in the process. He coughed, as bubbles flew out from his mouth, as tears began to form in his eyes.

"FUCK!" Drusus cried, grabbing his Nunchakus from his belt. With a swing, he hit the bubble with full force.

Nothing. It didn't leave a dent on the bubble.

Tears flew up from Keme's eyes in the form of bubbles, as he tried to keep his breathing under control. However, his panic attack had grown stronger the longer he was trapped here, and Drusus knew that due to that, he didn't have much time left.

"Babe, hold on!" Drusus cried, tears shining in his eyes due to the panic. "I'll get you out of there! Just… fuck! How do I even…"

Keme could only hear his husband's muffled cries due to the water filled up in his ears. He wasn't sure what he was saying, only bits and pieces. Something about hanging on?

Drusus threw his Nunchakus to the side in frustration, before he began to punch the Waterpolo with his own hands. Despite his best efforts, however, the Waterpolo remained, without a single dent on it.

Keme could only cry at this point. He was going to die here, as his husband—someone who went through more than enough already—could only watch as he suffocated. He didn't want to die like this. No.

Drusus stopped his incessant punching, panting from the sheer amount of strength it took him to pull those punches. He glanced up at his husband's panicking brown eyes, his own eyes spilling tears. Oh Cosmos, there was nothing he could do—all he could do was watch Keme drown in front of him, and—

"If someone is trapped in the Waterpolo, use magic, kupo!"

Dr. Mog's voice echoed in Drusus' head. The one piece of information he gave before the team left for the mission. Magic… but Drusus didn't know how to use magic! How could he—

Veles and Tyro.

He glanced back at the town that was nearby. Apparently, the three of them were still gathering supplies, as they all agreed to meet here.

He needed to get them. But he couldn't just leave Keme here. What if Keme died by the time they arrived?

But if I don't get them now, Keme will surely die. If there's even a slim chance of saving him…!

Drusus took a few deep breaths, trying to calm himself about the situation, before turning to Keme.

"Keme," Drusus said as loud as he could, hoping to Cosmos that he could hear him. "I'll get Veles and the others! Just hang on, okay?!"

Keme, unfortunately, couldn't hear exactly what his husband was saying—his words were garbled into something incomprehensible. Was he saying something about Veles?

Keme's eyes grew wider in panic as his heart raced when Drusus turned and fled the area. Keme's eyes were glued to Drusus' back, as confusion and sadness hit his heart. Why was Drusus leaving him?

No! Don't leave me, please! Keme could only think, reaching out a hand, as if Drusus was his only lifeline. Tears flew up as bubbles, as intrusive thoughts swam in his mind. Surely, Drusus was just getting help, right? He would never leave Keme behind like this.

That was the last thought he had, as his lungs burned before he gasped for nonexistent air. Water entered his lungs, before everything turned black.

_____

When he returned with the others, Drusus' heart nearly stopped at the sight of his beloved. Keme was rendered unconscious, as he floated slightly inside the Waterpolo, his body lifeless. As if he was—

Was I too late?

Veles and Tyro sprang into action almost immediately. They raised their arms, chanting their spells under their breaths, before they both unleashed Thundara spells towards the Waterpolo. They had to be careful; they didn't want to accidentally hit Keme while they tried to free him.

Their spells hit the Waterpolo, and like bubblegum, it popped. Water splashed around the Waterpolo's area, before Keme dropped to the ground.

Drusus rushed forward, and took Keme in his arms before he could hit the ground. He hugged him, as if Keme was his lifeline, before he had to release his beloved after remembering the situation at hand.

He gently placed Keme on the soft sand, before placing his ear on his husband's chest. A weak heartbeat. Keme was still alive, but barely.

Oh thank Cosmos…

He glanced at his husband's face. His lips had turned blue due to the lack of oxygen for a long time, and his eyes were shut, as if he was in a peaceful sleep.

Drusus gritted his teeth. He knew what he had to do. He thanked the Cosmos that Aric taught him what to do in a situation like this.

He placed both his hands on Keme's chest, before he pushed down. Hard. He could have swore he heard a crack as he pushed down a few more times, but he decided to ignore it. He'd rather have Keme have broken ribs than letting him die like this.

A few more pushes, before he opted to do mouth-to-mouth. He gently opened Keme's jaw, before his mouth met his. He blew into his mouth, as his heartbeat rang in his ears. Would this be enough? Would he be able to save his beloved? Or was it too late?

After the fourth mouth-to-mouth, it finally yielded results. Keme coughed, before he sat up, spitting out excessive water that was stuck in his lungs. He coughed again, spitting out more water. His eyes were wide as saucers, as he gasped for air.

Drusus had never thought that the sounds of his husband vomiting water could bring him relief.

Keme coughed again, as if making sure that there was no more water to get rid of, before he began to breathe heavily. Drusus didn't think—he tackled Keme into a tight hug, as tears sprang at the corners of his eyes. Keme's eyes widened for a moment, as if registering what was happening, before he returned the hug.

"I-I thought I lost you…" Drusus could only mutter, his body trembling from the trauma and fear. He could have lost Keme in such an awful way…

Keme rubbed his savior's back, burying his face in his shoulder. He too was trembling due to the fact that he nearly died from his worst fear.

Drusus helped the Thief stand, before Taika used a quick Heal spell to get rid of the minor injuries he had sustained. Keme muttered a "thanks", his arms never leaving Drusus' body. Drusus didn't mind one bit—he knew his beloved needed the comfort.

"I'm sorry," Tyro apologized, looking down at his feet. "I shouldn't have sent you both here. I should have let all of us go together."

"You did what you felt was best, Tyro," Drusus said, a small smile aimed towards the young Record Keeper. "What matters is that Keme is okay, and that we got what we needed."

Tyro glanced up at the Monk, a small smile on his face. Drusus was right—he was still learning, and Keme was all right regardless.

Tyro snapped his fingers, and a midnight blue portal appeared behind him. With the injured Keme in tow, Drusus followed the rest of the team back at the academy.

One thing Keme knew for sure; the Dolphin Offing wouldn't be a good place to vacation at, especially with the Bottomswell still at large.

Final Fantasy Record Keeper Final Fantasy VII Free Relic Draw

In the Final Fantasy Record Keeper (FFRK) mobile game, we sometimes get free draws. One of these is from a Final Fantasy VII banner.

Or at least I think this particular draw is from a Final Fantasy VII (#ad) banner. Unfortunately, this banner showed up a really long time ago so can’t remember all the exact details and information anymore.

Looks like I forgot or just somehow wasn’t able to take more notes regarding this banner. I’m pretty sure my pull on this banner was free though and that said banner is related to Final Fantasy VII based on the relics that I got.

This multi-draw gave me 2 6-stars, one new and one dupe. The new 6-star I got was one of the Ultra Soul Breaks (USB) of Vincent Valentine from Dirge of Cerberus: Final Fantasy VII and Final Fantasy VII.

This Ultra may be new but meh. Wasn’t really pleased to see this since Ultras are kinda outdated by now.

The dupe I got was the Arcane Overstrike Soul Break (AOSB) of Genesis Rhapsodos from Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII.

Arcanes can be honed by making use of dupes or Scrolls of Honing. Once an Arcane has been honed to the max, it will now only cost 2 bars to cast instead of 3.

So getting a dupe AOSB isn’t that bad. But of course, it’s still better to get something new.

Normally, I wouldn’t have bothered to take a screenshot of a pull like this because getting an Ultra and an Arcane isn’t really something I’d classify as good even if both had been new.

The reason why I bothered to take a screenshot of this draw though was because of Genesis. Currently, he’s my absolute, most fave Final Fantasy char. He’s the reason why I’m playing Final Fantasy Record Keeper.

So unsurprisingly, I already have all of his currently available relics. I pulled for said Soul Breaks the moment they’d been introduced in FFRK.

Now I’m just saving and waiting for whenever Genesis will get something new. Because of course all of Genesis’s Soul Breaks are must-haves for me.

Anyway, admittedly, I was disappointed when I saw the dupe of Genesis’s AOSB. But a part of me was still kinda, sorta not that sad upon seeing it.

I guess I wasn’t as annoyed as I normally would have been had this been a dupe of another char’s Soul Break.

Of course, still would have preferred to get something new, especially if it’s something new and it belongs to Genesis. Really hoping he’ll get a new Soul Break soon.

Anyway, Genesis’s Arcane Overstrike Soul Break is called SOLDIER’s Epic. It comes from a light armor-type item called Genesis’s Guise (VII-CC). This is Genesis’s red leather coat from Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII.

The animation for Genesis’s Arcane features his best friend, Angeal Hewley from Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII.
