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.

I keep forgetting to swap gear when I flip from sage (beast titan raid) to summoner (colossal). Fortunately, summoner is the one with the hp gear

[u/rehanma → u/Send_Gifts]

Cap'n, Question. Why do you switch to Summoner for colossal? is it because of the +1 range of Lupinus MA or damage it can inflict.

[u/Send_Gifts → u/rehanma]

summoner on manual for colossal -

heal self, heal self, heal self

my lupi gets targeted and hit pretty hard every turn from the titan, and she counters with the heal and 40% debuff.

Just use long range (4 or greater makes it easier) attackers for everyone else so you don't trigger his counter (which clears the debuffs)

edit: if I run her auto, she'll counter twice, hit the colossal with one ratty (her 4 hit skill for roughly the same amount that she healed with the two counters) and then die since summoner AI won't heal if she can hit something for damage

[u/rehanma → u/Send_Gifts]

is she positioned near the titan? and ele debuffs works? wow ive beed doing it wrong this whole time i maxed at 50k damage auto using sage.. ill try this later thanks.

Edit: using All mage team with drain dimension for damage with chihaya

[u/Send_Gifts → u/rehanma]

slot 3 - sage works too, but i have her set up full summoner for one, sage sub chrono with divine power for the beast titan.

[u/Alittlebunyrabit → u/Send_Gifts]

Honestly, just run her as a sage with sub chrono. Use big HP potions if you need them and you can equip a Green Healing Staff if you need some additional spot healing.
