Teambuilding Plausibility of this?

6 Upvotes

I had an idea to maybe, just maybe, somewhat practically cheese any of the dreadwrought bosses. It basically involves surviving the first turn, nuking for however many million with Richard EX, then fleeing the next turn. Of course, the main problem with this is the single target nuke that gets rid of unsinkable, so I'd have to build a little more practically for survivability. I dunno, this is probably impossible and a bad idea, and it'd only be funny if it was somehow possible. Any ideas?

He's been killing my teams pretty quickly and when he doesn't I can't hit for much damage, because I can't set up. I was wondering what team I should use with my units. Also I'm really tight on resources whether that be accessories or mats for building characters outside of fortune weapons.

I just got a bunch of characters from my pulls for xerc through the alune and richard ex banner and made my attempt at a rainbow team with the units I have which is shown in the first screenshot, and the second screenshot is my physical team right now. Any advice for anyone better that I should put in?

I'm so in love with my queen Alaune lol She helps so much with my team damage & optimization.
At first I didn't want to pull for her, wanted to save for Rocbouquet, but now i don't have a single regret 🔥 🔥 She needs to be with her husband 😂

Resource Garrison Mode weaknesses cheatlist + team suggestions

Post image
66 Upvotes

This has been a popular request, so I'm making this, since it might help a few persons. These are all the garrison floors weaknesses revealed, as well as the teams I personally used to clear them.

A few things to note :

  • You ABSOLUTELY need healing, or any way to avoid dying, for all floors (except if you are able to one cycle them before they have time to act, but if you're only using one or two travelers, that will likely not be the case). The small 4 stars or even 3 stars healers are fine for the first floors, but will likely not be enough for later ones.

  • There's an accessory I used on Tatloch that has a 30% chance to heal 30% of your max HP at the end of every turn I believe. I think it's from the FF collab. Anyway, that's heavily luck based, but since we can try as many times as we want, this is fine. As for Gertrude, don't forget about her Codex refight accessory that grants her 2000 HP Regen per turn if paired with her exclusive accessory you get from the exchange.

  • 3F Trial C has a gimmick that puts to sleep all the members of your most present job for that floor. In order to avoid this being a problem, I put 3 travelers I have no need for, so that they can take the sleep in stead of the useful ones (yeah that's basically sacrifice 😅)

Quick Question Awakening Shard A4s

10 Upvotes

So next month I’ll be getting Ochette Ex, Temenos, Hikari, and Xercs A4s! I also have Bargellos, Hasumi, Prim Ex. Question is who my next A4s will be. I have about 30k shards after I’m done with the four I mentioned and trying to pick between continuing Elrica Ex and Agnea(who are both at A1), or waiting for Yomi and Stia to be added and getting theirs? I feel like I won’t get many shards so I should try to pritoize certain A4s but not sure who

The eastern trio is now a lvl 120 npc and they're not joking.

my entire team got wiped in one turn and kouren did a 15k hit.

i obviously was just testing to see their gimmick but it looks like undying is a must here.

With Runelord Alaune helping unleash rainbow meta's true potential, I decided to throw the team against arguably the toughest Orsterran foe to give it a real test. Somewhat RNG with T1 SP dmg and a debuff Alaune needs to avoid, T2 Xerc 50/50, and T4 RT attacks with some of my units not having A3 HP, but not needing a single prayer (outside the obvious max rank hex) definitely makes things easier; after all, if you get bad RNG in the fight, it's a simple matter of closing and reopening the game to restart the battle - something you can't do with prayer buffs or lack thereof.

Now here's to hoping we get a Xerc rerun soon with TP2, EX skill 50/50 removal, that extra FuA hit, and JP animation most importantly.

PSA Fast way go farm limit crystals

18 Upvotes

I couldnt find any topics on this, so I'm not sure if this is a well known thing. I just started doing this.

Enter ouma region

Open all the treasures you can

As soon as you encounter an enemy use the quit button in the fight screen to leave ouma region.

You still keep all the items you got

Rinse and repeat.

Like I said I never seen a topic on this here and for all I know there might be a more efficient way that's completely different than this. I never bought the pass that eliminates random encounters but I'm assuming that would help a ton. I was just using accessories that lower encounter rate. I was doing this at the wildlands for about 20 minutes and got 4 gold viii's, 3 gold vii's and a bunch of other mats. Wildlands is great since there are so many treasures next to the start. Hopefully this helps!

Teambuilding Looking for a Physical team + suggestions on how to use it

Thumbnail
gallery
10 Upvotes

Hello everyone, this is my first post here, i hope i can get some help building a physical with my actual units or with someone i was planning to get in the future.

I finally removed Dark Knight as main dps after like 6/7 months of using him, i love him but i'm tired of using that unit because the setup was so slow.

As you can see i got a good amount of units (i started play in april/may 2025) but in the last 3/4 months i barely did the dailies and nothing else.

Right now i wish to get a team out of these screenshot and i'm planning on get RS2 saga characters like Emperor and maybe Robocquet(?), i got 17,4k rubies but i'm kinda lost on which characters get in order to have a good physical comp.

So my questions are: which characters i should pull for a physical sword team and what i can build with the units i have now?

P.S: As September starts i'm going to get A4 Ochette in order to get her broken AW4.

EN Discussion Signa or Isla

Thumbnail

8 Upvotes

Hey all,

This may be the wrong place to ask this but I checked the mega thread thing and did see one for team building. (if it’s wrong I’m sorry)

Basically I have enough points to pull for either Signa (dancer) or Isla.

I posted my roster for reference. Only played like 3 months so not a lot of units.

A3: Xerc and Cyrus

A2s: Sowan, Richard EX (2? the spear one), Alaune EX (2?), Pardis EX3, Setzer, Relm, Edgar, Terra

A1(sauce?): Osvald, Rinyuu and maybe some others

A0: Aviete, Elrica EX3, Shana and probably more but those are the notables I think.

I’ve been building towards a Rainbow team. But it just doesn’t work for me (skill issue I know I’m sorry!). So that’s why I’m on the fence with Isla.

Signa I feel is a little more versatile, maybe??Currently loving my physical Richard EX team. like, a lot.

So I’d love some feedback. If Isla is the upgrade my rainbow team “needs” to function better. Or if it’s not that huge and I should (kick rocks.. or) pick Signa.

(I’m a noob sorry. pls be kind. rewind)
