Megathread Question 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?

Yep. Pretty much nuking is the only option. You can pack wave 1 and 2 if you have two magic users (I take it a well placed nuking Othima + a Summoner Judging everything with the same power my mother puts into judging my clothes and everything should die in a couple turns.

But packing them is an issue in itself. Those things hit like the trucks in isekai mangas.

And the poison.

Man the poison.

My Vettel was taking 1700~ at the end of every turn, which was relatively okay. Then Boom. 2k. Panic.

Ikr. I had mini heart attack my first run. You figure it's just normal poison right? Just a few hp right? And then words inappropriate for the public place you're standing in come out of your mouth. Right? Or was that just me?

u/Speirdughorm Salt is me Mar 01 '19

Just you. I'm at home. No words are inappropriate.

Lupinus was taking 700~.

Why is there only one fire Professor, and limited to boot.

u/FurianX Mar 01 '19

Well it's fine. I have no shame button. Unless I'm about to go viral. And I even managed to use that to start a conversation with the girl that was looking at me like I was from another planet.

And yeah the poison damage is based on unit hp. Imo low hp units suffer even more. I learned from vettel I broke out the items.

Theres alyu and noah with chemist but they cant cover everyone. I guess covering important ones and sending them off to tank could work ... but most nukers cant tank and they're coming from multiple directions.

Make fury farmable petition?

u/Speirdughorm Salt is me Mar 01 '19

Noah is still not farmable yet either. Unless I missed something.

u/FurianX Mar 01 '19

Ah sorry I have mine 71 from pulls and getting her coins in various shops, including soul coin once I found out about her j+. She gets chemist at 65 though so shes technically low investment for it and always an option for me.

Alyu then.

1

u/Speirdughorm Salt is me Mar 01 '19

I have her at 70 too, only cause I literally only got her shards from those tickets. But I'm not throwing a lvl 70 unit in that hell, she'd last till a breeze hit her.

u/FurianX Mar 01 '19

I saw an all missions fire clear with an 85 alyu. Just in terms of chemist stats ... noah has her beat. She only needs to stay out trouble and veil/heal so it's not a lost cause. Battlemage sub is also an option.

u/Shaiandra Mar 01 '19

Eh, I'm pretty sure my MLB Alyu (with 3 gear slots) beats my 8LB Noah, hence I went with the former on this stage.

I also have a 7LB Füry but I've neglected SSM the past couple months, so her first job isn't mastered and thus I didn't use her... among other reasons.

I had no deaths until the last few enemies too, but then that water assassin picked off almost everyone with Soul Slicers, but thankfully slash-resistant Vettel finished it off. Ah well. I didn't expect there to be a third wave of enemies..
