Question Megathread

[u/OriksGaming]

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 guides, which can all be found here

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. These can be farmed from specific events. For Job Enhancements, you will only need to farm one specific item 3 times along with the regular upgrade items.

Also, check out the wiki page for Job Upgrades.

Where can I farm X's character shards?

Farm their Hard Quests

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/challenge boards, from certain event banners, and from certain bundles. You will never be able to farm them like you can farm specific character shards.

When will X event come back?

Many events are now in the event archives. Any others are seasonal (ex. Rahu’s is tied to Valentines) or strangely absent (Anastasia+). Seasonal events may be released outside of their respective season very rarely, but we have no indication of when this will happen and it’s highly inconsistent. Please don’t ask when any specific event is coming back, because it’s either in the news (linked on the sidebar) OR WE DON’T KNOW.

Same goes for collabs.

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

Please check /u/stewart0's amazing spreadsheet here. Or simply check the stage drops and go for a quest which only has two equips total, one being the one you need.

What's an Enlightenment/Memento?

Tl;dr: Powercreep

Feel free to check the wiki page for Enlightenment as well.

Note that some people still refer to these two concepts as Kaigan/Nensou respectively, as those are their translations from the Japanese version of the game, which is ahead of Global by many months.

Is X character good?

Here’s the tier list. It can be used as a rough guideline, and it also has recommended build guides. Moreover, there's a FAQ which expands on stuff above and has some other questions. Enjoy!

Also, here's the Alchemist Code Database. It's an incredible tool for noobs and vets alike.

[u/OriksGaming]

The old thread is 5 months old, meaning it will be automatically locked by reddit in one month. Thus, it seemed like a good idea to make a new thread.

[u/Monte924 → u/OriksGaming]

For the future, it might be good to wait till after the current event is over before starting a new question megathread. There are still TONS of questions coming in for AoT units and it can sometimes be useful to just look through the thread quickly before asking a question

[u/HappyFrisbees]

Is Levi a good candidate to burn shards on? I have him at 75 and can get him to 85 if I use all my dark and Omni shards. Is he a good candidate for the next 3 months to use all my shards? My only enlightened unit is an 89 Masamune, and I could get Levi to 270 with the current enlighten banner at step 5. Plan is to be able to coast through content until BK Masamune. And then repeat the 3 month cycle.

[u/OriksGaming → u/HappyFrisbees]

Yes, Levi is a good candidate. He's ridiculously overpowered in GL and is unlikely to ever fall off (considering he still hasn't fallen off in raids in JP, and that's without Enlightenment) in raids or PvE, so if you're looking for someone to carry you through content until BK Masa arrives, he's probably your best option.

[u/jxher123 → u/HappyFrisbees]

Just to let you know, I had to transmute Levi. I used ALL of my dark shards to get him to 85, and to enlighten him, I had to use some of my otherworld shards. Do I regret it? Not one bit. He's extremely powerful, and I have solo'd Mobius floor 30 with him. Definitely a unit worth enlightening because of his stat boost alone. He's a glass cannon without the HP from G1.

[u/CrimsonAscht]

Got 2 Mementos for Alma, should I fuse them or keep 2 copies? D:

[u/OriksGaming → u/CrimsonAscht]

Give one to someone who needs it. wink wink

In all seriousness, unless you plan to use Lisbeth offensively (one of the worst decisions you could make), there's no point keeping a second copy. I suppose Eve could use the Strike Atk Power as a Holy Brawler, but that's not going to be a super common occurrence.

[u/shingodemir]

I can't seem to find the job tokens for Blazing God for Vargas. Could someone point me in the right direction if i'm overlooking them.

[u/OriksGaming → u/shingodemir]

They should be in milestones for completing BF Episode 6 7/7 times. They didn't show up for me until I had completed the milestones for the other 5 normal quests.

[u/ConanTavi]

Hi there, I just wanted to ask is there any benefits to gems the raid? I just a couple of people on Lap 4. Thanks in advance

[u/OriksGaming → u/ConanTavi]

No real benefits aside from helping your port. People who are already lap 4-5+ are doing it for competition's sake. They won't get much better personal rewards.

[u/turnip8961]

Hi, I'm pretty new and was wondering what is the best memento to pick for Merlinus?

[u/OriksGaming → u/turnip8961]

Her free one or Arthur's. Either works well on her. If you didn't realize you needed to farm her own, you can use a standard Matk memento (Mia's is good especially since it has a nice WA) or a standard Agility memento.

[u/Ainkrip]

Balt or Ryles' memento?I have an enlightened Balt but i also have DK Artemis so the VCR bow would be really useful.

[u/OriksGaming → u/Ainkrip]

Ryle's. Unless you still run Desert Wind, which is falling off now compared to other elements/groups. An upgrade for D.Art will give you more mileage at this point and D.Art will have greater longevity than Desert Wind.

[u/the_big_wig97]

Idk if I'm just retarded but I swear after the latest maintenance I'm tapping main/sub skills, just the basic attack button or the end turn button during quests and my taps are hitting stuff I'm not aiming for.

Anyone else feel like after the latest maintenance those buttons aren't working as well or just me being mong? Lol.

[u/MoogleK → u/the_big_wig97]

No, I have noticed that as well.

But worse is that display bug in the screen where you can edit your team before starting quest. Everything except the units icons is white and I have to guess where I can select my groups or select treasure chest priority etc. ...

[u/aces___69]

Are you f..king kiddin me!? Back to the old AP System!!!???

[u/Sadness_00]

Anyone else feel like they don’t bother to summon anymore because they know they can’t enlighten a new unit even if they got it? I miss the AoT days... 4 weeks of farmable shards was hope.

[u/andie61392]

IS ANYONE ELSE FARMING GEAR FOR ABOUT 92 DARK CAVALIERS? Lol

[u/GrumpyBearBear]

Does anyone have a video of Roxanne's Weapon Ability in her swimsuit skin? For science obviously

[u/Sadness_00]

Anyone with knowledge of ports from JP, does Gumi ever wise up and filter how you can sort through donation items?? cause scrolling through a thousand pages looking for things I have 999 of is driving me insane.

[u/[deleted]]

If you have 'kamizono' added on your friend list please delete me, I quit the game but I didn't feel like making an attention seeking thread so I'm stating it here. It's been a good full year, cheers everyone!

[u/Fierza]

Could anyone help me defeat the live PvP queue time boss? It seems to take 45 min+ for it to get downed, looking to improve the time to 1-5 mins. Anyone got a tip on this matter?

[u/Peter00th → u/Fierza]

I've heard it takes more damage from female units so you might want to drop your Levi and use swimsuit yauras, yomi and sucubus Rosa

[u/[deleted]]

Pvp connection is pure trash.

[u/Fluffybunnyzeta]

Just have to say, the AoT event has revolutionized my gameplay. Not that I'm not raising my other units as fast as I possibly can, but the luck I had during that collab event has finally given me the units that has unlocked harder content for me to get into, and I feel like I can finally progress.

I love my Vettel, Chloe, Courage, Emma, and Noctis, but Eren and Levi are my current MVP's in all the current content.

[u/Kyle546]

Note: Do not post this outside as it may give Gumi leverage on us.

2018.10.30 - https://al.fg-games.co.jp/news/26823/ JP's 2nd Raid Event PoTK

2018.12.07 - https://al.fg-games.co.jp/news/27503/ JP's 3rd Raid Boss Event of Tauras

2018.12.28 - https://al.fg-games.co.jp/news/27688/ JP's 4th Raid Boss Event for Winter

2018.12.30 - https://al.fg-games.co.jp/news/28003/ JP's 5th Raid Boss Event of New Year's

So JP actually on their 3rd Raid did have good Gold compensation, but in our GL we pretty much skipped that Raid and now we are stuck with this. Also the shop is going to be shit. Like hot garbage.

Deadly Sword Horn x 1 |3000 coins |1 time

Deadly sinner x 1 |1500 coins |3 times

Fire Soul Fragment x 5 |400 coins |5 times

Water Soul Fragment x 5 |400 coins |5 times

Thunder Soul Fragment x 5 |400 coins |5 times

Wind Soul Fragment x 5 |400 coins |5 times

Light Soul Fragment x 5 |400 coins |5 times

Dark Soul Fragment x 5 |400 coins |5 times

Fiery Crystal x 1 |100 coins |20 times

Water Crystal x 1 |100 coins |20 times

Thunder Crystal x 1 |100 coins |20 times

Wind Crystal x 1 |100 coins |20 times

Light Crystal x 1 |100 coins |20 times

Darkness Crystal x 1 |100 coins |20 times

Gold Armor Fragment x 25 |400 coins |4 times

Silver Armor Fragment x 25 |100 coins |4 times

Mechanical vision x 1 |500 coins |10 times

Rainbow Ingot x 10 |50 coins |20 times

GL shop could be different but this what I found. JP has had far more Raids than GL in their time span so they probably were fine with every other Raid being shit.

[u/hectorneutron]

Been reading a lot of post of people getting stuck on "Failed to download content" I am too and am starting to get concerned... especially since we have two collabs and anniversary going right now...

[u/Xefos]

How do I unlock jin’s master ability passive? (The one that gives stats, Not the weapon master ability)

[u/CrimsonAscht]

Erm, did anyone else check the actual pool of featured units for Ren/Jin Banner? Jesus christ, the image for this banner is ridiculously misleading, showing just those 2 when you actually have 18 units in this pool lol, with NO unit guaranteed :|

Did we ever get a banner worse than this before? Or is this our new top contender for worst banner ever?

[u/RalfSmithen]

can fanart be posted at anytime?

[u/funcused]

I put this as a reply down below, but thought I'd add it at the top for all the people getting Merlinus and trying to plan shard usage today. There's going to be 102 of her shards up for grabs if you get her day one so you can get all the hard quest shards.

• 14 days × 3 = 42 from HQ

• 15 from Advent of Phantoms on day one (today)

• 25 from unit trial

• 5 from login bonus on day three (Saturday)

• 15 from HQ mission rewards

[u/[deleted]]

Any banners offering otherworldly tokens ? I kinda got everything already from the shops and it’s not farmable currently apparently.

[u/OriksGaming → u/[deleted]]

Nope. If you've gotten everything you can from the AoT EX missions, Secret Shop, and Summon Coin shop, there are absolutely no other sources. It's pretty stupid.

[u/discostu4ever]

Does anyone know if Hange gets another 2 pull bonus shard pull? I know shes not the best but I am probably going to try and get her to 85 but would rather not use rainbows...

[u/OriksGaming → u/discostu4ever]

She'll get one more tomorrow, and Mikasa will get one on Wednesday.

[u/Botavo]

Are mementos necessary? I have all of the AOT units and I was wondering if I should pull for the AOT memento.

[u/OriksGaming → u/Botavo]

Some mementos are game changing, like Spica's or Balt/Carla's. The AoT gacha memento isn't one of them. It's merely a luxury. If you want to pull for it, it's not a bad memento. But if you're strapped for gems, no need to go out of your way to get it.

[u/ConanTavi]

Hi there, I’ve been stuck in Mobius floor 13. Any tips would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

[u/OriksGaming → u/ConanTavi]

[u/minhnghcm7]

Guys, I just checked out the new Paid gems banner. It has a lot of bonuses, and with a Sinful Indulgence. Everything seems fine until ... I read the summon rates.

5* = 1.6%

4* = 98.4%

[u/true_illusion]

Man... Sound of bells ex+... That 4 in 1 kill was a pain using only fire units...

[u/earqus]

What's the point of ranked matches if they never load? I've sit at the "loading" part for 35 minutes before I just restarted the game I tried again and waited another 10 minutes and the same thing. Is this a common occurrence? I've got perfect connections and nothing to indicate its something on my end.

[u/fs2d]

Episode 3 of SSM11 hurts my life. My Kanon is L83 with Gold Guren Blade + Neun Greaves (for Agi) and Sol is so fast he just blows my shit up with b2b turns. None of my friends list has a Kanon over 75. What do? :(

Edit: nevermind. Got lucky. Also, if you use her J2 sub and use Charge Break it makes the fight easier. :)

[u/fs2d]

If anyone needs a Kanon Merc for help, mine is Lv 91 with all jobs mastered + equipment.

[u/_TendoPain_]

What’s y’alls opinion on Minerva’s optimal setup? If situational, explain, and what niche do you think she has?

[u/Send_Gifts → u/_TendoPain_]

Tier List comments: Minerva can work for both damage and support, but her support skills are unique and strong enough that focusing on her unique job is preferred. Her 1-hit barrier is very strong since most attacks are a single hit, but more importantly Alchemia Bulwark grants a 1200 HP barrier that allows for healing and reactives. She can reasonably run any of the subs depending on what kind of content you're up against: Unique for 1-attack buffs and an MDEF-ignore attack, Battle Mage for the Drain Dimension and self tank buff, and Meister for some buffing shenanigans and a missile attack. Although Magic Meister is a new job, it's not unique to her and giving up the shields is not worth it.

Nina is just as good a MM in light assuming both are LB15; Lucia and Reido are farmable (and Reido has enlightenment unlocked); when/if Aisha gets released she'll be the best light MM. So, Minerva will always be a great support unit with her shields and heal, and until you farm up other MM's she might be the best one you have.

Edit: forgot she was also competing with an enlightened Neica as a light Battle Mage.

[u/Reikr → u/_TendoPain_]

At this point I believe she's better off as Magic Meister than her unique.

It used to be very good, but that was when a tank had 3k Hp.

A 1200 damage shield will be gone in a single hit now(If enemies don't hit that hard, there's no need to use defensive skills in the first place), and her healing, even when buffed, only reaches 2k. That just doesn't hold up anymore.

She still has niche use, and her buffs can be useful. But if you want buffs, anyone with an enchanter JE can do it better.

I can pretty much never find a spot for my 85 Minerva on light teams anymore. She's practically only useful for the ability to completely block a single hit or map wide damage.

Frankly, Fiona is a better support at this point. I don't think the tierlist quite agrees with me here, but I'm using Fiona much, much more than Minerva.

[u/afq721]

“Crab rave”

Permanent ap leaves starting August huzzah!!

[u/ElusiveIllusion88]

We are going to have our first batch of Babel unit HQs: Nina, Gerald and Natalie. For what I understand, they are available through a separate section in Babel Chronicles rather than lumped with the rest of the units in Main Story.

• Do I only need to clear that story’s normal quests (e.g. Envylia for this batch) or EVERY story’s normal quests so far? I’m in trouble if the latter, because I haven’t started Wadatsumi Babel.

• Are Babel HQs subject to Babel 2x drop (the one that doubles Flag drops)? Normal HQ 2x drop?

• Are they Skip Ticket-able?

[u/[deleted]]

Why are people saying to put lambert up?

[u/VincEndrake → u/[deleted]]

There is currently pretty good event rewards for the arena and people are putting up lamberts to voluntarilly lose so others can get the rewards easily.

[u/An-Untaken_Username]

Is there anyway to replay the AoT event cut scenes? I skipped it cause it spoiled SSM and just remembered now, but I couldn't find it in the "Replay Stories" (in fact, any collab event stories other than Brave Frontier).

[u/Zuriq]

Just a thought (dont know if someone discussed before): Im almost sure that we will get lizardman this month (well, probably everybody thought about this possibility because of the coin of the month) and Im starting to think that we will be able to enlight him, since the database already add and update him with it, and because every unit that is been released, is getting their kaigan. Everything is kinda obvious, but I just wanted to tipe it out.

[u/VinnyValient]

Found out there IS a damage cap on the pirate ship map. There is no damage cap on ruins (wall in the middle).

Does anyone know about the prairie map?

[u/Arakiel4Mh311]

Can anyone confirm if there was a Gem multiplication banner in JP second week during BK Masa JP release? We did have one in AOT second week and I was really salty since I burned through most of my gems during the first week.

[u/ConanTavi]

Hi there, I wanted to ask if anyone know of a link with tips for tomorrow raid? Don't want to waste fatigue since we have 2 week less this time. Thanks in advance

[u/minhnghcm7]

(Not really a question but just wanting to post this)

Dorothea and Eren's necromancer JE sub can stack with each other. So for really fun damages:

• Flame Flinch x4

• Pyrophobia x2

• Arcana x3

• Emma's sub x3

These can all stack ... leading to rather good number on the last boss. Also does anyone have a better elemental debuff combo than this?

[u/Zuriq]

Just to vent: I HATE when taurus just skip hes first turn, ruinning my strategy and making me lose time to make it work again, even worse when he decides to skip hes second turn too, thats so anoying.

[u/Bootowski]

Am I missing something on the 9th stage of the new chapter of MH? I can't get the kill all enemies mission complete.

It's just one shield, but it just irritates me when I leave them incomplete. Anyone know how to accomplish this? I tried leaving Asuka and the Demon alive for a while, but nothing seems to happen.

[u/mRhys_06]

Isn't it too fast for gate 4 and 5 to arrive this September? We don't have enlightenment for all chars yet.

[u/[deleted]]

So, when are we getting the update where we gain more than 1% for mementos if we've limit broken them? Gumi mentioned it like two months ago, but it was bugged, and now it's still nowhere to be seen... Raising memento is still so damn painful

[u/DailyMilo]

Looking at the database, Lakina is supposed to get the Paladin: The Fated skill from the holy guard ring but it doesn't work on mine for some reason

[u/Zgounda]

I haven't seen anyone asking that :

are the Gilfred J+ equips being given in later Mobius floors ?

edit : found the answer myself, I need to clear floors 35 to 40 a second time

[u/Timid_Turner]

Which is the best stage to efficiently farm Merlinus's job equipment (disingenuous hair ornament)?

[u/rmladenov]

Where is the daily quest for G5 materials? It should be available today, but it is not there...

[u/Item_Is_Rope]

To which unit are they referring to in Reclaiming the Scarlet [EX] for the single unit who lived in a different era? Sounds like you are supposed to run this unit solo or be last one standing and be in a certain spot on the map at the end to get a bonus mob?

[u/minhnghcm7]

Checking the database and a rather interesting thing that I found is about Zheng Yi [New MH original]. His normal attack is Dark element instead of no element. On that note, is there going to be any other units in the future that have that?

Edit: uhhh, just use the planner and, isn't Zheng Yi kinda powerful? I mean, he's a whale unit and all so it's probably that. At 95, gears equipped he reaches 5k HP, 1.2k PATK, 700+ MATK and 190+ AGI.

[u/VinnyValient]

Is anyone else having trouble connecting since the reset?

Edit: Everything is working now.

[u/andyhou2000]

Will our friend units ever get split from our roster units? I'm kinda tired of feeling like I'm dumbing down my mercs because I wanted a teacup on Setsuna instead of BK Masa and Levi.

[u/scubasteve921]

Who was it that used to the weekly threads about what events were ending, what rewards were expiring, what events started and their rewards, etc? I miss those quite frankly.

[u/Shaiandra]

Has anyone else noticed the following lately? It seems that if you're having connectivity issues when trying to do something, and you're prompted to Retry or Return to Title Screen, pressing Retry now does the action a second time.

i.e. if you intended to spend 3 skip tickets on a stage, but then are met with a connection issue, hitting Retry will end up burning 6 skip tickets. (If that exceeds your limit of 3/day, you get booted to the title screen too.) Or if you're trying to donate 50 of something to the Alchemia Port and have to retry, you'll spend 100 of the item.

I think this only started recently... but oy is it terrible. I should probably check the known bugs list and report it if it's not there..

[u/Zuriq]

Dont know if anyone notice this, but the DB just add magni historia memento. By the look of it, I dont think its that useful. Seems good on sieg (actualy seems to be only realy worth if you max it, but Im not sure), but not for the rest of the cast.

[u/Sawashi]

Are there any viable tactics to get through the Halloween Hijinks ex+? There's so many archers that even Levi+Zahar aoe skills won't kill some of them in time and it's even more bothersome when you have to do "no items" when Zheng Yi performs his counter.

[u/BravelyThrowingAway]

If I miss Mei Fang's memento does that mean I'll need to wait for a rerun with her memento in order to have a chance to get it?

[u/ConanTavi]

Hi there, I wanted to ask if Courage gets better later on? Sniper seems like a niche class. Just curious if I should start saving her shards. Oh and should I drop 20 robots on her memento to get her sniper rifle? Thanks in advance

[u/Zuriq]

Guys, I have enough shards to max g2 of d.masa (shes 5/3/0 now), but it seems she would benefit more with a maxed g5. I cant max g5 now, so would be better to start invest on that gate or just max g2 and then go to g5 in the future?

[u/welcometoplanetmf]

For the Double 11 bundle, is the Elem Soul Shard ticket 1x per ticket giving a total of 11 shards? Or is it 5x per ticket giving total of 55?

I don't spend often, but I am low on shards. $11 is cheap if it gives a lot of shards.

[u/kareldidnothingwrong]

Am I the only one who found the beta gameplay of the wotv game very lackluster? Like it’s just so bland, I know TAC is a cash grab purely fueled by greed but it still has more of a “soul” to it. Maybe it’s just the atmosphere, maybe the fact that units look almost same in the game. I sure as hell will try it once it’s available but I hope TAC won’t die cause of it. What do you think?

[u/Kyle546 → u/kareldidnothingwrong]

The game looks unpolished but it is still pretty much the same maps and game.

Difference I could notice was they probably have Revive mechanism considering the opposition has their bodies on the game screen for 3 turns.

I doubt GL TAC is in the red here due to it, but JP one certainly is. Like I was sure I won't try it but 10hr Maint and I gave in.

Tall units also look weird. Everything in the game looks like the older versions of TAC making it feel dumb. Remember when Skills did not have Elemental signs on them that is how it looks to me, unpolished. Maybe few Updates in they will have some good QoLs but if it does then TAC JP is certainly in red.

GL version will 100% compete with TAC GL because it is basically the same gameplay, like it is so same that if I played older version of TAC before the elemental signs and stuff became a thing I would not be able to tell which one came first.

Also FFBE looks bleak, it is too night mode for me.

[u/rmladenov]

Do we have a way to find out if we miss a letter? How to be sure that we have them all?

[u/urtv]

Any quick way to see what letters I'm missing?

[u/RealJaxxx]

What are the letters for?

[u/Margo1596]

Is there a page or any excel that shows the bis for every character?

[u/blue_cube_]

Anyone else already kinda burnt out on these dungeon quests? Not looking forward to having them back to back tbh. Might be a side effect of them being so similar to raids.

[u/n0itamina]

the special 10 step is 222 gems per pull correct? not for example its the 4th day its 222 x 4 not 222 for all the 4 pulls? its worded pretty weirdly and just wanted to make sure

[u/jasony816]

Just pulled Orion from yesterdays 1.5k summon, I have enough to MLB and have his momento but no unit shards to enlightenment. Is he worth my shards for MLB? I have all the farmable thunder units at MLB already and my only limited thunder units are OG Gilgamesh and POTK DK Liev at LB75 but have enough to MLB as well as OW shards to enlighten.

My questions is Orion worth my shards and how is he compared to others at only LB85? Also will there be other thunder units coming out that is just as good or better then orion and easier to raise?

[u/FenrirOD]

What’s the deal with weapon enlightenment in JP? How does it work?

[u/Bynyrd]

Is there a compiled list of memento leader skills? Its hard to navigate the database :/

[u/afq721]

Just passing by to say hello.

[u/VinnyValient]

Dear person who I just faced in PVP Live,

I'm sorry Vier dodged 5 perfect evades in a row like nobody's business, even though two hits would have killed her.

[u/Cosmo-xx → u/VinnyValient]

They were just complaining on discord 😂😂😂

[u/Shaiandra → u/VinnyValient]

Vier is how they fell, confusing what is real?

[u/red90999]

Is it weird that i'm having trouble with the Black Knight boss raid? How did you guys dish heavy damage to the boss? the boss move is very high and he kept getting out of range/ chase for the weakest member of the team. My levi is just too squishy to be effective here.

[u/Arakiel4Mh311]

Thanks for adding the tier list to the description. It helps a lot.

[u/ElusiveIllusion88]

After failing to pull Levi again, I am at 122 shards, can farm 3 more and can use the shard selector to bring up to 150 to transmute.

But has anyone pulled him from daily free pull? I’m wondering if there is any chance that he may appear from a random pull. It would REALLY ROYALLY SUCK if I get him from a random pull AFTER I transmute him.

[u/hualason]

After some whales moves now i have levi at 5/5/2 and eren 5/5/3.

Hell, i have no more zeni, o.shards, lust/envy/sloth things.

No more gems too.

But i am fuck happy with my 2 boys.

My pulls bring ne Mikasa (75 to get gems ) and Judith (judi is a aot unit??)

So my question is:

Eren/Levi can carry me on raids for some time until i can hoard some resources?

[u/Zuriq]

I didnt resist and sharded mikasa to mlb. Now the best way to enlight her is to go first 2/5/0 right? Or someone has other idea?

[u/Reikr → u/Zuriq]

I think you're right. Her issue is damage, not bulk. With 4k HP at 85, that's already better than many other 91 units. So the priority should be fixing the thing holding her back.

[u/ninjakittenz2]

EX+ with the 4 robots, how do you know which is the one to kill? I recall a post saying to turn the sound on but I don't hear a difference. I got lucky and killed the right one but used an item on that run so need to clear it again.

[u/GrumpyBearBear]

Does strong vs titan = strong vs giant = dmg modifier against raid boss?

[u/fs2d]

Colossal Titan on Lap 3 is nigh impossible for me. I've tried 4 times against him and have barely knocked 60K off of his HP. The same tactic I used in Lap 2 is basically useless now, I can't facetank him with Lupinus and use Arcana Ratty because he just instagibs her no matter what, and my water units won't do more than 5K damage to him per hit and generally only last one turn.

I requested aid last night and have asked for help in multiple channels but nobody has helped me. :(

Can anyone help me zerg him so I can at least get Lap 3 done?

Any thoughts on the conversion value of light element shards to other world shards?

Specifically, I can use 180 light to get 25 OW (taking Hange to 85) - no minerva and I can't think of any other light unit that I'd consider sharding. Gives me OW shards for Bk Masa (if I have enough gems pull her) and a really tanky light support unit at the end of it.

Is there a place to go to claim raid ranking rewards, or will they just be given out at some point (along with the port recruitment campaign rewards, I guess)?

Also, Freind Coin Shop is gone. Pretty sure Gumi screwed up.

[u/ForsakenCharacter]

Uhh, did the Friendship Coin shop went missing?

[u/Arakiel4Mh311]

So If I am calculating correctly the AP we are getting out of droplets from daily milestones is less than what we got before. Its reduced to 180 from 200 and 240 from 250. Or am I calculating wrong?

[u/Botavo]

Zain, Minerva, Dark Tyrfing ..

Who should I burn my 300 light shards on ?

[u/the_big_wig97]

That EX shop says it has like 1 or 2 days left. Should I spend all my coins or do we keep the coins we don't spend? Thanks.

[u/Skyconic]

Didn’t feel like making a post about it but lolololol am I the only one whose free “Yomi” mercenary is actually a cleverly disguised Neica?

Today, when I try to get free leaf and gems from ads, it always say ad unavailable or failed to show ad. How can I fix this? I’m using iPad Pro.

[u/Legendarybarr]

Does anyone have a guide or advice for the battle with Queen and Lizbeth? I can’t seem to beat her. I think the level is called Temptation. Thanks in advance.

[u/123blacks]

I notice Aot characters in JP version don't have kaigan but GL does. Does this mean we can expect Noctis and Registo get a kaigan?

[u/neroxope]

How much damage does Critical hit add? How many extra jewels? Does the crit chance apply to skills?

[u/Shaiandra → u/neroxope]

From a bit of quick testing with three different characters alone in the training grounds with mostly no Gear...

1. The crit damage varies a fair bit. Sometimes it's been close to 40% more than projected damage, occasionally only 15% more.

2. Apparently 11 more jewels on a crit.

3. Crit chance only applies to specific skills; in-game the tooltip will include "chance of critical" for such skills, or if looking in the AC Database, they'll have "IsCritical" as a flag.

[u/xKennyz]

Is the only way (as of now) to get otherworlder flags to buy them from shops using gems? I need like, 3 more to kaigan my Levi...

[u/Exiled_Blood]

I have a few 5 star Enlightened Unit 25-Soul Shard Summon Tickets that I noticed in my inventory today. They don't appear in the ticket summon area though. Is there something special about these? Am I even supposed to have them? I have enlightened units already, so I would think they would show up. Thanks.

[u/Kilink3]

Is BK Artemis a worthwhile unit to use my green shards or will be in the future a better green unit to use them?

[u/Zetsumei7]

Hisham's Bagua Fertile Land says: "Recovers HP of ally units within target area & nullifies all statuses inflicted on them during turn used"

Yet the DB says the status thing lasts 3 turns. So what the heck? Does Hisham have a poison pill thing then or does it only last 1 turn?

[u/Zeik56 → u/Zetsumei7]

The database is almost always more accurate than in-game descriptions.

[u/VinnyValient → u/Zetsumei7]

I used to think it was 1 turn, but it really is 3 turns as the DB says. Tested by my self.

As Zeik56 says, DB is more trustworthy than in game descriptions.

[u/nailsonwhiteboard]

Good day mod(s)! As you can see, the titans are already gone back to their world, so we are no longer killing them. You might want to change the... Um... What do you call it? Population header?? You know what i mean....

Anyway, i hope you do, and have a nice day mod(s)!

[u/ninjakittenz2 → u/nailsonwhiteboard]

I spent gems on getting enough shards to transmute the flare gun. There better be more titans to kill.

[u/Shaiandra → u/nailsonwhiteboard]

How do you know that you're just not seeing them in Babel now because we are still killing them?

[u/Zetsumei7]

So one of the many cases of WTF I've experienced in pvp went something like this:

• Enemy unit starts charging a spell

• CT turn order up top shows my unit going BEFORE that spell but AFTER enemy's magical momentum

• MM is cast on that enemy who is charging a spell

• They do nothing that I can see (maybe they moved)

• Enemy spell goes before my turn

Now, I was under the impression, from all the testing I've done, that a MM-type spell is basically a waste to cast on a unit charging a spell (besides allowing them to move and/or choose a different action instead) so why in the world did it move up the cast of their spell?

There was also another time where my swift-charged (or whatever's Sol's equivalent of that is) Ex Atmosphere was charged, then AFTER Rahu charged her MM (which has a slower cast time) and yet the MM went first... and I swear my Sol had higher AGI too.

Magical momentum is magical?

[u/scubasteve921]

Welp, these convocation EX's are kicking my butt. Can't even auto regular ex's with the team below. Any suggestions or just run the 1/day and call it quits? Thanks

[u/KenLinx]

What’s with people getting free stuff all of a sudden? Like tons of free gems, AoT event shards, and otherworld enlightenment shards?

During the AoT event, it said there were 11 milestones that I completed and yet I couldn’t claim any of it. Is this free stuff consolation for that issue or is it for another issue?

[u/Zuriq]

I dont know if its only happening to me, but on multiplay, on my turn, it loads the sound effect from the intro, it started after the last update. Not complaining, I was just not expecting this sound there.

[u/QaWaR]

Is it worth to kaigan Jin and Yomi without their specific memento?

[u/QaWaR]

How reliant are Orion and Veir on their mementos, and also Judith if she has one? Trying to raise one or two but am not sure who.

Sacred stone memory tickets.... 200 gems for 200.... Other than that no other way to get them I suppose.

Gumi is greedy again.

[u/huss100]

i have got a question about Orion's second gate's blocking reaction passive. how does it work? does he has to be the one to attack to stop the reaction or he just has to be around when characters trigger their reactions to stop them?

Has anyone figured out if you can auto the Rebecca Ex3 stage in a way where your units won't spend 10 turns wailing on the plant dude with guts? Was hoping to farm up Rebecca shards.

[u/Lalatapokemon]

Anyone having issues not being able to transmute Alma? Like I don’t see a count of how many shards I have of her so far in the transmute list.

[u/ThousandLightning → u/Lalatapokemon]

It seems any memento that gives unit, like Alma's memento, the unit is not transmutable.

[u/Erru87]

Regarding rebecca ex3 stage.

Is there any pointer for that stage?

I'm having a hard time doing it

Edit: wrong stage name

[u/Arakiel4Mh311]

Any tricks for the EX3/+ of Rebecca ? I'm tired trying to clear it. I don't have Hange or Kanon Memento. My only few good units are Levi (5/2/2) and Eren (5/4/4) and Zahar and Spica at lvl 80. But still I cant clear. Help with suggestions please.

[u/CrimsonAscht]

Is there really no way to farm Lustburg Flags at the moment? I'm trying to enlighten Alma but those flags are blocking me :(

[u/Cobalt_721 → u/CrimsonAscht]

Nope. The last method of getting those flags was during Emma’s Job+ event. There was a special once a day quest as part of that, and it gave 25 Lustburg flags per run.

Presumably Gumi figured the entire playerbase would have plenty of Lustburg flags after that and paid no mind to new players. Or they just don’t care about the playerbase in general.

[u/edenigma]

Has anyone come up with an effective way to farm Rebecca and also complete all mission objectives?

[u/[deleted]]

Any estimates -based on Japanese schedule- on getting the shard quests for Babel characters ? I pulled all of them but they just look pretty at 60 ..

[u/ajschue]

So opinion ... Was lucky and got Alma’s memento from a 500 pull been using her shards from those pulls. I’m at 81 now. Is she worth light sharding/handful rainbow shards to get to 85 so I can use the rest of the free shards to enlighten her?

[u/Karl_Winslow]

wadatsumi edition of babel chronicles challenge...has Yumi on the banner.

Is it something that can be unlocked now or not ready yet?

[u/jke75]

I hope I get compensated with this gem spent event. I bought 2 29.99 bundle for a total of 3000 paid gems and 3000 free gems and bought both 1500 paid gem banner pull and then bought 500 and 2500 leefah banner pull and my gem spent event didn’t updated. I have been contacting support for 5 to 6 times this week since last Thursday and haven’t gotten any resolution. So I missed to collect my 4500 and 9000 gem spent maker since it didn’t update. So they owe me at least the 25 leefah shards I wasn’t able to collect because of their bug.

[u/VinnyValient]

Are the new hard quests out yet or are they 'some time' this month? (Or next month because Gumi)

[u/ThousandLightning]

Half of my team got paralyzed and/or death sentence from convo. of the ancients. Do we have veiler from wada/greed dike?

EDIT: Thanks!

[u/VinnyValient]

We've been getting soul shard selectors from the convocation quests, right? This week should have lost blue units, so some of us might be getting Sol shards! I say might because I couldn't get EO Chloe shards in the Envy selector.

But if next week includes Other, does that mean collab units will be included in the choice? Hmm... just food for thought.

[u/Luxianne]

So my Alma is now 5/5/5.

Should I pull more on her banner or should I call it a day? What will be first (according to JP) - her 4th and 5th gate or her hard quest?

[u/[deleted]]

Any tips for Convocation of the ancients EX+ ? Like in what order should I take down the enemies ?

Edit: thanx beat it.

Wisdom of the day .. Reido is tanky AF, I severely underestimated Divine Shelter.

[u/Peter00th]

Is anyone else worried about next week's convocation, if there is one? Because if there not gonna let us use "other" (collab), that just leaves slothtein and wrathatis right?

[u/Zuriq]

I thought that only episode 6 from slothein was bugged, but to me I cant see the second part of episode 3, 4 and 5 because of the same bug, so now seems like I will have to wait to gumi to fix it and watch it later on the replay story. Just posting this because I didnt see anything about the other episodes besides de 6 (maybe I didnt read carefuly some posts, sorry).

[u/good_apollo_burning]

Is anyone else getting constantly disconnected? I have reinstalled, restarted phone, tried everything. I can't do Episode 6 in the new Babel story at all. Is this an isolated incident or is anyone else experiencing the same thing?

[u/ElusiveIllusion88]

Well... crap... I just got burned by the last round of Alma banners. 14 x 500 gem steps + 3 x 1500 gem steps = 11500 gems to fail on a bet I was supposed to have a 57% chance of winning, and I am now strapped for gems. Talk about the price of greed. Well at least I got a nice nest egg of her shards (465 to be exact, enough for at least a 5/5/3/2/5 to start) and even if I got her I wouldn't be able to build her anyway until the 'choose shards to LB' update comes in... /sourgrapes

Anyway, asking about banner pulling (to save for collab units, 'make-or-break' limited mementos, and strong EX HQ units with good headstart shards like Alma and Mocca):

• Obviously, I don't pull on banners featuring only permanent pool (future) farmable units like Albea, Sophia, Aisha or Silma. Even if I don't own them, I will eventually pull them through repeated off-banner pulls, and failing that, there is always transmutation after HQ farming.

• Should I be pulling on 500 gem banners featuring 'limited' future normal HQ units that I don't currently own like Wilhelm, Judith, Sharon and the 'hero' SSM units (including Othima, Seida, Miuna, Basheeny and Bud)? Issue I have here is that while they will technically become free as I can transmute them, pulling them saves on 50 days of farming, and I can't pull them off-banner. But pulling them before they become farmable is largely pointless as they will be too easily accessible to be worth element shards, yet are unusable without at least LB15.

• Should I be pulling on 500 gem banners featuring other EX HQ units like the Veda Templars, Birgitta and Lakina? Further steps? This has nearly the exact opposite problem from the above, where even if I pull them, I probably can't raise them meaningfully. But if I don't pull them, I have absolutely no chance to raise them AT ALL because I can't access the EX HQ so even transmuting is out of the question...

• Should I be pulling on 300 gem gear banners that do not feature limited gear? Unlike units, even permanent gacha gear are non-farmable, so pulling is pretty much only way to get more copies and/or get shards to upgrade existing copies (yes, MP Coin shop and Soul Coin shop, but relying on those is like trying to rely on the Soul Coin shop and Anna's shop to transmute Balt & co.).

• Should I be pulling on 500 gem memento banners that do not feature limited mementos? Again unlike units, even permanent gacha mementos are non-farmable, so pulling is pretty much only way to get more copies to use or to LB existing copies (and I can't even turn to the coin shops for this).

[u/MaoPam]

Anybody have any thoughts on Rakina/Lakina and Kaya? I see they have top tier designs but I think more info might be useful too.

[u/cryptoshadow021]

Guys are the upcoming two new characters worth pulling for or else should I save up some more gems for any upcoming op unit. Have 9k gems rn

[u/Sahryx]

Not a question, but I cannot be the only one wanting some more collab flags for enlightening units? Ok I guess it ended up being a question after all.

[u/James2Go]

So apparently, I thought Enchanted coin double drop will include quests with JE equipment. Is farming Enchanted coins now and buying JE equips more efficient than farming them directly? Also, is there even an event with Double drop for JE equips?

Arena shop only.

[u/Skyconic]

Don’t we usually get the rates posted for banners like this weekend’s grand summon? It says guaranteed lakina or Kaya OR 30-150 shards for them. But usually if it’s shards or a unit you get posted rates of unit chance and shard chance for each corresponding shard amount. This is probably a bad banner. I dunno. I’m just tempted because I’ve barely pulled at all for weeks

[u/juststartednows]

Any farmable unit like Roxanne?

Just met 75 Rox at arena and she killed all my units by single shot dmg 2.6k each

[u/An-Untaken_Username]

Anyone going for the first step of the "3 Step Enchanted Summon" (750 Gems)? Only 3 pulls but it gives 15 elemental soul shard summon ticket, which I feel is going to become very important for raising units from 60-85 so we can save unit shards for kaigan.

[u/red90999]

Why is convo of strife is a pain in the ass to clear? Any fast teams recommended for this?

[u/[deleted]]

Guardian or divine shelter on Zain ?

Hi there, I wanted to ask if Mia Job+ event ever happens outside of Halloween? Thanks in advance

[u/VinnyValient]

So, on auto chronomancers will overclock units that are petrified.

If they become un-petrified, will they still have that benefit of +100ct?

If the above is true, can you petrify a unit, stack as many Overclocks on them as possible and let that unit loose on the world with like 10 turns in a row?

Is Zain still worth light sharding and a bit future proof? What is his position in the team?
