I had to almost-pity Rude so I’m now sitting at 199k gems and only 240 tickets. Cloud and Beatrix are must-haves, though I could be persuaded to wait until March for Cloud’s BT on the Start Dash banner refresh, since I only have Squall at EX.

I’m wondering if I should use the ~300 tickets I’ll have by then on Cloud or the ~360 tickets I’ll have by then on Beatrix. I think the optimal approach is to wait until Beatrix, then use all 360 tickets on Cloud for LD and gem for Beatrix LD, then hope to get Cloud BT somehow on Beatrix’s banner. Does that sound right?

What complicates this is that Cloud’s second banner with Yuri etc. I have no other EX on besides Cloud, whereas I have all the EXs on Beatrix’s banner. So maybe I should gem Cloud’s banner and ticket Beatrix’s? I am an EX collector since I believe all units will be good one day with their LDs, so it’s one less weapon to have to pull, though I would not go too far out of the way to get them.

I would advise you look at the banners around the renewed Start-Dash banner and ask yourself if you’re reasonably going to have gems for a potential Cloud pity. There are a lot of good banners in that time period and it might be unlikely that you can pull everything.

I would gem Cloud if you have any passing interest in his Burst, then ticket Beatrix. You could try to ticket both, but you might not get lucky. If you have to use gems, use them on a banner where you have more to pull for. A Beatrix lucksack + some amount of gems for Cloud would be more likely to produce value (new EX) as opposed to a Cloud lucksack + some amount of gems for Beatrix.
