Support Class: Elemental Master(w/additional helpful info. for gearing casters)
Note: -This guide will have "NO MVP above 500m"required. (Disclaimer: This statement may change depending on market, right now these MVPs are affordable as they should be.)
Stats (the build shared here is VCT gear dependent, no screenshot is required.)
-If using Illusion Boots, you do not need 120 DEX and can focus on INT/VIT, some AGI, and some STR for gem/points weight.
-Can focus on ACD or whichever focus for your build (Support/Tanky, Support/DPS)
P.S.: Using Ventus (Lvl 1) Summon at Passive (Lvl 1) Elemental Control can also provide an easy -1.0 FCT.
GEAR Goals for cheap build:
100% VCT in Gear
-1.5 FCT
Uninterruptable Casting

-0.1 FCT (+10 above gives -0.1 per refine)

Cards
Spoiler
Dark Illusion Card (4169)
-10% VCT
-20% VCT (Dark illusion + Dark Lord Combo)
Berzebub Card
-30% VCT
Fenrir Card
-70% FCT (this is good if you cant attain -3 FCT then it can still speed it up)
Note: % gets applied last, so if you have -2 FCT and you need -1 FCT left, only -1FCT will be reduced by 50%, Please do note that the Highest % gets applied. Example if you have Fenrir (70%), Nidhoggur (50%), Sacrament *Cardi buff* (-50%), Only Fenrir gets applied.
Nidhoggur Shadow Card
-50% FCT (this is good if you cant attain -3 FCT then it can still speed it up a little)
Note: % gets applied last, so if you have -2 FCT and you need -1 FCT left, only -1FCT will be reduced by 50%, Please do note that the Highest % gets applied. Example if you have Fenrir (70%), Nidhoggur (50%), Sacrament *Cardi buff* (-50%), Only Fenrir gets applied.
Class Stones
Spoiler
Variable Cast Stones Are great
-15% vct-(all 3 combo)
Variable Casting Stone (Dual)
-5% vct (additional -0.5 fct if combo with Variable Casting Stone Garment)
Variable Casting Stone Garment
-10% vct (additional 5% vct if combo'd with all 3 upper, lower, and mid vct stones)
SKILL Notes:
(Requires -3 FCT)
(Requires -1.5 FCT)
(Requires -1.0 FCT)
Cheap Build (Avoids as much RNG as possible)
NEW CHEAPEST BUILD (Thanks to Paradise Discovery):
-1.5 FCT, 105% VCT, Paradise Pieces
COST: ~250m (May Vary depending on RNG and market prices)
Sample Set #1
Spoiler
-10% vct-Spell Circuit +11
-15% vct-Variable Casting Stone(Upper/mid/lower)
-10% vct - Dark Illusion Card
-20% vct-Manteau of Airship
-10% vct-Paradise Sage Book
-20% vct - Advanced Paradise Ring/Necklace Combo
-20% vct - Temporal Transcendent Shadow Set
=105% VCT
Sample Set #1 - FCT ISSUE GEARS
With Fixed Casting Stone (Garment) = 0.5
Illusion Boots(enchant) +9 Only = 0.7
Spell Circuit(+11) = 0.1
Advanced Paradise Acc Combo = 0.2
Overall: 0.2+0.5+0.7+0.1=-1.5 FCT
(Optional: Can also use Minor Cast [Dual] + Minor Fixed Casting Stone [Garment] for 0.7 fct which would require less refine on the Spell Circuit, but it is more costly 2 get both stones.)
(Convenience) Add a Mistress Card *A bit pricey*
All in all you have -105% VCT and -1.5 FCT + uninterruptable casting + gem cost on skill.
Gear slots not used for the build Armor, Shield
Explanation: It is thought that -3 fct is a must to "no cast" AP transfer with Increasing Activity, but that is costly. Having the Paradise Accs Combo will help with the -1.5 casting left for increasing activity so it does not get interrupted. All your other skills are no cast besides Increasing Activity.
DISCLAIMER: Optimizing the build at this point is up to your cash bank, and this is the cheapest build that I can think of, may vary depending on what you already have in hand.
Reminder: Using Ventus (Lvl 1) Summon at Passive (Lvl 1) Elemental Control can also provide an easy -1.0 FCT.
Message to readers: The only ones listed in the VCT/FCT section are the most common gears to address VCT/FCT issues. There are more out there and if you guys want to share them and make this topic better you can reply it down below and I can add it to the list.
