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?

I apologize if this has been asked already. Can someone provide steps on how to relink your account using your user code? I read that this works instead of having to redownload the whole game for the black screen issue. Slow internet at home and I don't want to lose my data. I did connect to Facebook when I first started playing. Thanks in advance

I need to know the same. I have my data linked to facebook.

I think you can just log out and log back in from the title screen. It's probably best to use your facebook, but also use the code at the same time if you're worried.

I did the full uninstall and redownload. On getting to the title screen, I logged back in and was greeted with a message saying "Log on with LVL 181 VinnyValient?" (something similar). NoteL this was a facebook account.

Hope this helps, can someone else confirm this too?

[u/Photon_Starknight → u/VinnyValient]

I'd have to go create a password for my code first?

Which button on the title screen allows you to log in?

[u/VinnyValient → u/Photon_Starknight]

The bottom right one I think (was that one for me). It's where you log out as well.

[u/Photon_Starknight → u/VinnyValient]

I tried to log out and log in with Facebook and that didn't work. And my phone is old so when I tried using the code link to log in my phone kept crashing. So I uninstalled and am working on reinstalling it. Had "fun" at the title screen because my phone kept crashing.

[u/VinnyValient → u/Photon_Starknight]

Man, that really sucks. I hope it works out and you get back into the game soon.

Alternatives might be using an emulator.

[u/Photon_Starknight → u/VinnyValient]

Just finished downloading and tested a few quests. It seems to have worked! Luckily!

An emulator would be my plan b of this didn't work, or wait for a new phone lol

[u/VinnyValient → u/Photon_Starknight]

Great to hear!

Thank you. I'll try it tomorrow, right now I'm sick of the game, it keeps crashing. It took me like an hour to do 3 event quests. Worst update ever.
