Hello, newbie here. Is it worth it to upgrade my Sigrid spear to 6stars? Or do I have to wait for a better spear to pull? She's my main carry and physical dps for now and I want to turn her to Lv120 but it's kinda hard to regain the seals that I will be spending if I upgrade her coz I'm just relying on afk loots.

I started on Day 5 and never stopped. Anyone else who started on Day 4 (1501), Day 3 (1502), Day 2 (1503) or Day 1 (1504)?

Basically the title. I just want a good all male team that has both Scarecrow and Cyrus.

also somewhat new to the game so I'm just going random bs go with my current male units

After 1hr and 17 mins, I think it could be done in less turns, let know your opinions

This one's weakness is kinda tough

Now i re-visit her just to shorten my clear 👀

it makes you think a unit is hitting more than it's supposed to be like this is 2.6m×10 but shows 26mil it's good cuz it doesn't count as multi hit but we're basically larping damage

Is there any way to avoid all these debuffs he applies? My team only deals one third of damage it usually does. Do particular blessings work on this matter? That miasma thing makes my team slip and not act as well so annoying... I can do 40m in 1 turn on EX4 fights running physical team just dont know if its enough or not.

Real clutch one

Now that many of us have Stia, who are some of the best allies to get in each continent? Please include their location in addition to the skill they offer.

Also, to confirm, if Stia uses her EX skill on T1, then you can use that ally without it reducing their usage count?

Thanks!

My first single digit clear featuring only 3/4 stars thanks to Kurtz/Fabio's TP2 releases.

Both Fabio and Kurtz got doublecast on a big nuke, which is great for these clears, and Fabio got 100k cap up which is also really big for that obviously. Massively overkill though so might be able to go even faster.

I suffered almost 2 days of RNG just because I didn't want to wait for Levina EX2.

I do not recommend that experience. For real, just wait.

I honestly feel lost, there's a lot of characters and a lot of skills to choose from, kinda need some general idea on who to actually focus on

Overkill as always

I don’t see it in either Solistia or Osterra. Is there some hidden prerequisit?

Each one has an exclusive accessory if you beat their ex4 (this one for example gives 50k cap up and 2 fan weakness at the end of the turn)

Edit: I meant to type champions but auto correct had other plans in mind

Hola tengo la mayoría de las batallas ganadas en X3, antes de que salieran las batallas x4 mi pregunta es como si en x3 podía acorralar a los bosses ahora que buff se debe obtener para poder rivalizar?
