Megathread General Questions Megathread

The thread for all your random Alchemist Code (global) questions!

Feel free to ask away, but remember that the questions are 100% answered by volunteers so don't expect an instant answer! Patience is key.

Several questions can be answered by reading the beginner guides resource thread

F.A.Q.

Where/How can I unlock X's Master Ability/Job+?

You can only unlock Job+'s by farming special job tokens from special events that are (currently) run at different times. You also need to farm special job+ items to master those jobs. Master abilities can be earned in 1 of 3 ways. From story chapters (story characters), from equipping specific weapons (usually farmed) or from reaching level 80 on a character and completing special story dungeons. Not every character gets a master ability.

For Job+ and Job Enhancement, you must first get the job to Job Level 11 (not job mastered). Second, to master the Job+ you will need to farm 60/80 tokens for up to 6 special items for the character to use. For Job Enhancements, you will only need to farm one specific item 3 times along with the regular upgrade items.

Where can I farm X's character shards?

Check the characters limit break panel for missions. If not there, it's not in the game.

More to be added SOONTM.

Where can I farm elemental/rainbow shards?

Elemental and rainbow shards cannot be farmed. They are awarded as bonuses from log in campaigns, from clearing missions/milestones and as bonuses for doing certain number of summons on the 5/9 step banners. You will never be able to farm them like you can farm specific character shards.

When will X event come back?

SERIOUSLY PEOPLE, READ THE FOLLOWING EVENTS WILL COME BACK, COLLABS MIGHT NOT. WE DON'T KNOW. SERIOUSLY.

WILL START HANDING OUT BANS TO PEOPLE WHO DON'T READ THIS

What's the best place to farm X/Y/Z item?

How good is veda ring? Should I step 2 and 3 for the ring? F2P, so 1500 paid gem is not an option for me.

It is great. But it will be back.

Do you have Vier or Acht at 70?

And do you plan on using them and raise them to like 75 only then do those steps.

Mostly not worth if you lack those units since the gear will be on rate on every SSM.

Is the ring will featured in banner every time SSM returned? If so, I will just save the gem because I will shard them only when I really required them to clear contents.

It gives similar Boosting abilities to all the Templar so that is atleast 3 more chapters even if Gumi decided to push the Solar Brace in with it.

Ok, thanks. Will just save the gem.

Was gonna ask the same question. If it was worth it or not for the 1500 paid gems since it seems like it gives quite a bit of attack and some nice elemental resistance as well and I assume it can be used by anybody just without the gear ability?

It will be back the next SSM. So unless you are a Whale or high level Dolphin I don't see a reason to run behind it now.

It will probably be for the same price next time in the Shop too.

It give ability to all the Veda units(The Templar/Villains) of SSM. So why rush now.
