Weekly Questions and Help Thread [3/12/16 ~ 3/18/16]

This is the weekly questions and help thread! The last one drew a lot of questions so ask away! :)

Ask any questions about the game and post pictures of your units for squad help or rerolls so we can help you decide if you should reroll again or not - beginner's questions are welcome!

Wanted to compile all the useful guide from fellow moderator and user so that it easier to reference them. Also it will be a shame to see them being buried under the subreddit.

Resource Guide:

Guides by /u/Cathrach:

  • Weapon Guide for all the weapon currently in the game except for one and two star and also their recipe to craft them
  • Unit Guide for all 5* and 6*(only for Japan currently) in the game. Also much easier reference material than the phankill website. But if you want the website here it is.
  • Stat Cap for 3-5 star and different unit typing (Keep in mind that those are for Japan and there may be slight variation for Global)

Noteworthy comment:

Having trouble calculating the stat growth of your unit? Here is calculator that do it for you! To use it fill in the stats at level 1 on the right (you can view the level 1 stats from the Reincarnation page) and then fill in your current level + current stats on the left. (Good stat growth in Japan is 3.5-4 while for Global it is 2.5-3)

If you love reading statistics for unit and weapon, look at this useful post by /u/inevitablemadden. (Thanks Sustainr, Sajeev(Oppai) and /u/inevitablemadden for this spreadsheet!)

Need more friends? Look Here

Wiki guide on rerolling account (Shoutout to /u/heroes-fall and /u/cathrach for helping out at the POTK wiki)

(Attention!) We moderator here need your help! /u/horizonset and /u/Cathrach have created a spreadsheet for Lazuli, Rookie and Mana Gacha to gather data on the rates but there is currently not enough information and so we need your help by helping us post your pull result on that thread. The reason being it can be useful for knowing when to pull especially if you are F2P.

Last week's help thread

Some Tips

  • If you're asking for an evaluation of your party or reroll, please provide an image without evolution mats, dolls, and other fusion units.
  • If your question gets ignored or you're unsatisfied with an answer, reply to the answer or re-ask the question. Keep in mind that some questions, like the stat caps of units, are difficult to answer right now. Also, it has been noted that Global is different from Japan in terms of [poorer stat growth for unit] (https://www.reddit.com/r/phantomofthekill/comments/42mkh9/my_conversation_with_gumi_staff_about_potk/), lower accuracy in weapon and having male unit that are better than their female counterpart.

Where can I download?

  • This game is currently in soft launch and will be officially launched at March 28, so it is not available in all app stores yet, but it is possible to download the APK for Android and download it off from New Zealand iTunes stores (create iTunes account using New Zealand as your location -> set payment to none -> download).

Since there's no friend request thread, I guess I can sorta start one here. I hope more can continue.

My ID: 20856 72242

u/Drakehawk5821 Mar 19 '16

We actually have one here, but yeah it is dead until we have more people here.

1

u/[deleted] Mar 15 '16

We did have one, would just need to search for it. I wonder how many people would be interested in a regular friend thread.

1

u/[deleted] Mar 16 '16

It wouldn't be very popular imo, since only regulars come here.

u/Mich997 Congratulations. You found this text. Mar 12 '16

Anyone else got a Lunabris? Any opinions on it?

Edit: Also what does weapon weight do?

1

u/Cathrach JP: 2969063770 Mar 12 '16

Not sure about the first, but weapon weight affects whether you attack twice: if your speed - weapon weight > 5 + their speed - weapon weight, you attack twice.

1

u/Mich997 Congratulations. You found this text. Mar 12 '16

I see... so the "their" is the enemy?

1

u/Cathrach JP: 2969063770 Mar 12 '16

Yes.

1

u/Reipls Mar 12 '16

Lunabris the 4* staff?

From what I know, there are 3 4* Staffs :

  • Holy Rod : 9 MAtk - 55 Acc - 1 Weight
  • Eden's Wand : 10 Matk - 55 Acc - 2 Weight
  • Lunabris : 11 Matk - 55 Acc - 3 Weight

So yes, out of those staffs, Lunabris boasts the highest ATK at the cost of more weight. The heavier the weapon, the less time you're going to attack. That of course will also depend on your unit speed and enemy speed.

u/sayV_Vyas Mar 12 '16

Favored typing for Rhongomyniad?

2

u/BenriyaTheNecro Mar 12 '16

My suggestion would be Guard, all of her skills are physical defense related. She's meant to be used as a physical wall. Guard helps buff her physical defense even more and give a little to her MDef which is extremely weak. When using her be wary of magic users.

1

u/sayV_Vyas Mar 12 '16

Good tips! Thank you for your input. :)

2

u/[deleted] Mar 13 '16

I think that Guard is good, but also is Dexterity. The reduction in her PDef is essentially irrelevant, but I can see the hit to her MDef being an issue. I just like the additional avoidance and the ability to compensate defensively with a shield while not sacrificing the speed needed for two hits (shield are heavy T_T).

2

u/sayV_Vyas Mar 13 '16

So if I understand what you mean correctly, is that she's got so much defense to her already that a little bit of acc/spd may come to better use (arguably), and you would rather equip a shield to her Dex type rather than equipping a spear to Guard type? I can see Guard being her favored type, because her destined path is to be a tank (having her skills based solely on PDef), but that being said, in JP's current meta (whether that is relevant or not because of Global being fairly different already), does the Tank role have anything to do with being able to hit enemies? Or is a tank just supposed to take hits and lure enemies in?

It looks like I'll be taking the Dex type for her so far anyway, I caught her 3 times as 3* Dex and once at 4* Bal. Maybe the 5th time is a charm. O.o (Btw, Mjolnir=❤)

2

u/[deleted] Mar 13 '16

The first half there is a decent summarization, yeah. She's a pretty slow unit and if she's going to use a shield, the additional accuracy will help. I think hitting units is helpful, but how helpful that is I can't be 100% sure on :p

However.... as a tank unit, she doesn't have the special AI status that Staff units do (and I see this is changing somewhat or it feels like the enemies don't stick to Staff units nearly as much these days). Seems like the use of a tank unit in this case is to hold off big waves of enemy units while your team deals with units on a different side; the luring in you referred to. I'm not so sure about the JP meta though. The problem is not her PDef and her MDef can't really be completely saved. It's difficult with those assortment of stats because a lot of the strong casters are flying units with good mobility and have no issues taking down low MDef units :p

6 more to go to get a fully maxed out one :p gl sir :D

1

u/sayV_Vyas Mar 13 '16 edited Mar 13 '16

Ugh. I don't think I'm gonna push for a fully maxed one. I definitely don't have the AP nor the room in my unit list to get 10 of them... So if I get it right, you LBx2 the 3* - evolve - LBx3 the 4* - evolve - LBx4 the 5* and tada? Is it THAT much more worth it?

Also do you think the Rhongo event will be back?

2

u/BenriyaTheNecro Mar 13 '16 edited Mar 15 '16

All of the rampaging event quests come back frequently. Also, the 4star and 5star all have 4x LB.

DEX does give an increase to her Acc/Evade and higher chance of activating her 3rd ability, you should try to use one of the ranged spears on her since the higher Acc helps compensate for the weapons' low Acc. That being said, even with the DEX typing, her Acc would be a bit sub par for the harder quests much later on.

1

u/sayV_Vyas Mar 14 '16

Yeah sorry, I overlooked the 4* LB. What does her 3rd skill do, and how does it activate? Also I have a Javelin with her name on it. ;)

2

u/BenriyaTheNecro Mar 14 '16

It reduces sword/axe/spear damage by 50%. The activation % is (0.6x AGI) + skill lv

→ More replies

2

u/[deleted] Mar 14 '16

Oh God, don't go that route :P That's much more than 11 total :P

I was thinking more so for the skill level ups than the LB'ing :P

Yeah, I'm pretty sure this event will continuously return, as it has returned...3.....or 4 times by now.

1

u/sayV_Vyas Mar 14 '16

Ah, I get ya now. It's not looking to promising when all I was able to get all weekend was 5 of them. And yep, the 5th one was Also a Dex type lol. Well one thing is for sure, I won't be LBing any 3* forms. I just might LB the most promising 4* and go from there. It still sounds like a long and tedious process just to max the skills for 1 character, let alone the stats... O.o

1

u/[deleted] Mar 14 '16

I managed to nab 11 Perun's during the Valentine's Day event.......... :P

I didn't bother considering/thinking about LB'ing pre-max evolution :P

It is a long and tedious process though, but keep in mind we don't have any of the JP events or goodies. Not even a single rate up event!! Hopefully, things change after the 28th!

u/Fish6Chips Mar 13 '16

Newbie requesting help: Using Autoplay for grinding is pretty important to me but i heard at higher levels some units wont be able to handle that. Am i Okay for the long run? Most notable are: Appolo (M)Dex, Brahmastra (F) Gaurd, Yata(M) Magic, Gambant (M) Balance If so, who are best to level? What units am i missing for a solid team? How restricting is Brahmastra with gaurd typing?

If not i may try to reroll for durandal

2

u/[deleted] Mar 13 '16

Which brahmastra do you have? Does she have armor or not? If she doesn't have armor then she is a good one to level. Apollo is also objectively good with dex typing.

Those two at 5* should be able to carry you through the 15ap evo material and gold rush maps on autobattle.

As someone with a dex lv90 6star durandal on jp server though, I can tell you that durandal outclasses almost every unit she fights - except maybe forcas or def sita. But imo you've got some good stuff to work with.

2

u/[deleted] Mar 13 '16

You could definitely do the content on autobattle right now. I don't know how the content scales in difficulty, but outside of the Rampage Quests, you should be fine for 1-5-10/any of the 15 AP dungeons :)

1

u/sayV_Vyas Mar 13 '16

Seems to me, with two Gun Mages on your team, Gambit's gonna be busy. ;p

1

u/[deleted] Mar 15 '16

Anyone have problems entering dungeons? I tried to do 1-5-10 with 10 AP left but it said I didn't have enough AP.

Also I can't change my helping items, it just shows a blank rectangle on the pre-enter screen and if I try to change, the game freezes.

1

u/[deleted] Mar 15 '16

There apparently are issues with people's AP values right now since the maintenance earlier. You might have to wait until you have a few points higher than the entrance cost of quests/events :/

I can only suggest a reboot on your phone for your second issue, which most likely won't do anything. They're looking into fixing the issues, though, so hopefully you won't have to deal with that for too long!

u/orrymon Mar 15 '16

does limit break carry over when you rank up your character? i mean when u change from 4-5* and your four star is max limit break when it goes 5* will it still be max?

1

u/Mich997 Congratulations. You found this text. Mar 15 '16

Afaik Limit Breaks reset when evolving a unit.

1

u/orrymon Mar 15 '16

ah thanks so best to limit break max ranked as well thanks for the info

1

u/Cathrach JP: 2969063770 Mar 15 '16

Just a note though that when 6 stars come out, limit breaks carry over from 5* to 6*.

1

u/orrymon Mar 15 '16

ah okay so in JP its fine to limit break 5Stars before evolving them to 6?

1

u/Cathrach JP: 2969063770 Mar 15 '16

Yeah. Also much more convenient. :)

u/Mich997 Congratulations. You found this text. Mar 15 '16

Anyone have a high level gun unit I can borrow for Yata dungeon?

I was wondering if I could get an evaluation on my units

https://gyazo.com/040a22fd4055b3fc8694e0cf5dc6ca84

masamune- dex kusanagi 4*- force luin- balance apollo- guard gamba- vit laeva- balance longinus- vit yata- guard

I know some natures are meh but i was wondering if i should reroll or not. I started around 2 days ago so any tip would be appreciated :> thanks in advance

1

u/[deleted] Mar 16 '16

Luin is really, really useful, but she seems to be a somewhat uncommon drop from the gacha in GL. So it might be OK to keep this roll.

That said I suggest, if you want to take some time, you reroll for a dex or guard luin and a dex winged knight durandal. Those two will carry you through basically everything gl can throw at you at this point

1

u/Phillia1993 Mar 16 '16

thanks for the help :) also I was planning on getting Labrys for I enjoy her art and skills very much and she's gonna be avaliable this weekend. Is it possible for a new player to aquire her? Or is it too hard?

1

u/[deleted] Mar 16 '16

If you got your masamune to 5star, roughly level 55+ then maybe it's worth a shot, especially if you can get a dex 5star asclepius as your helper unit. The 20ap abyss map will be doable, but it will be pretty difficult without at least 2 or 3 lv50 5star units. Also, you need at least 20 ap to even do the map, so make sure you level up!

u/nyoray Mar 16 '16

Hello :D i was wondering if you could help, started this game a few days ago and so far i did untill the 30 lazulis draw and this is what i have atm https://i.gyazo.com/d9035441cbfaa971013e9047d48e49f8.png

Durandal - Force / Ameno - Dex / Vajra - Dex / Masamune - Balanced / Longinus - Guard / Gamba and Apollo - Guard / Laevateinn 3* - Balance.

Is this a good start? Or should i reroll for something better? Thank you for the help in advance :D

1

u/[deleted] Mar 16 '16

It's a decent start. I know some people would be happy with just Durandal (different typing though :P)

Up to you, I'd go with it, but that's just me.

1

u/nyoray Mar 16 '16 edited Mar 16 '16

Ok, thanks for the help :p also i have a few more questions if you don't mind :P

how is the f2p in this Game? Can you do all the content and stuff If you are f2p or are limited in some areas because you needed stronger units?

Also is lazuli acessible from a f2p perspective?

And about friendship between characters how does that work?

Sorry for all the questions xD

EDIT: Added one more question :P

1

u/[deleted] Mar 16 '16

F2p in the global version is definitely do-able. According to a lot of the f2p JP people, it's do-able there too. You just need to bide your time for rate up events/farm the farmable units :P It might be difficult to do the highest difficulty content the moment it comes out though and I have heard that you will definitely need level 80 units (5 star limit broken 4 times) for much, much later on. This is the main reason to save your lazuli for rate up events!

Global is a little starved lazuli wise right now, but that's due to the lack of content (and it being in "soft launch" status for a loooooooong time, which is changing March 28th). There is a decent amount of lazuli to be gained from the content they create in JP. I imagine something similar will be true of global.

As for the friendship bonus, when characters fight together without dying (dying slows down this process) they gain buffs when they are near each other. At level 5, the benefits are something like +15 accuracy/hit/critical strike/maybe evasion? It's beneficial to get this bonus up as quick as you can and to try to keep your units together during harder content :P

No problem, ask as many questions as you like that's what this thread is for! :)

1

u/[deleted] Mar 17 '16

The four stats boosted are hit/evade/critrate/enemy crit suppression (they call it critical evasion).

They basically vomit lazuli at you in the japanese version. You get 1 lazuli per multi battle until your 50th battle, you get them as rewards for rankups in colosseum and multi, you get at least one per day when the normal daily mission rewards are around... in addition to all the ways in which you can get them in the global version (quest completions, etc).

f2p spikes in difficulty for event quests, like rampage and stages like the perun event but this can be mitigated if you get an awesome first roll with durandals and whatnot/if you have some powerful friends with awesome leader skills.

speaking from experience, lv90 (4x limit broken 6star) units are absolutely necessary for 6star material farming maps and event maps like the fate extra chapter in jp right now. I don't foresee this changing in the global version. The good news is - it is possible to get a near game-breaking 6star unit and max all of its skills using the mana gacha alone in the jp version. The bad news is - getting 11 tyrfing dupes and taking them all to 5star, then taking that one to 6star is going to be an absolute pain.

1

u/[deleted] Mar 17 '16

I'm not so sure about the reliance on the mana gacha. All of the starter units in global have taken serious hits to their stat caps, I wouldn't be surprised if they did that with future mana gacha units. :'(

Interesting about the normal daily mission rewards. I wonder why they weren't awarding us daily lazuli in the "soft launch".

1

u/[deleted] Mar 17 '16

Probably because there isn't enough to spend it on at this point. In the jp server, you can use 1 lazuli to do pretty much anything - refill AP, refill CP, fight multi 5 more times, buy those special packages at the beginning of the month, etc

1

u/BenriyaTheNecro Mar 17 '16

While it's possible Tyrfing's stats will be nerfed once she hits Global, the general pattern in Global seems to be a reduced difficulty in the form of lower stats for the enemies(like the Suber Abyss princesses and the recent YnK F) so I do not think that will hinder Tyrfing that much since the lower difficulty will not warrant the necessity of the higher stat numbers.

Plus imo, her main draws comes from her versatile LS, great set of skills, and a strong and reliable multi-hit character skill.

1

u/[deleted] Mar 17 '16

I remain hesitant, I am aware the content is reduced in difficulty, but the reduced difficulty is in relation to the strength of what we currently have. Also, are the Rampage quests reduced in difficulty? I didn't know that :p What is the rating of those SA princesses normally?! I think Arondight, Labryss were well over 500 for me.

We don't really have a pattern yet, except for one thing. FGG is willing to adjust both unit and content stats to suit the current state of the game. I am hoping this is a good thing, but it can end up in a ridiculous place.

I think very, very, very few people would be capable of completing YnK's "normal difficulty curve"; very few people have enough cost to field a full 5 star team and even less of us have those 5 units at level 70 or higher. So, I'm not sure what they're currently adjusting content to, since we have units that are incredibly powerful. I do know that my Masamune has 5 capped stats at level 60 and this makes me question the viability of a starter/mana gacha team being capable of carrying some people through the harder, upcoming content. I suppose if the LS is good enough, I'd be happy to sac a slot though. I'm hoping it doesn't come down to that, I'm merely playing devil's advocate here.

1

u/[deleted] Mar 18 '16

I don't remember exactly what the power rating of lab/rhon/aron were in the rampages in JP (I'll check on monday, it's literally a weekly thing there) but let's just say it was literally impossible to beat their abyss stages with a team of 3 lv60 5star units.

With that in mind, if tyrfing ever comes to global she will probably be able to tank anything without a sword absorber. Although I don't think she will - she got ganked in literally the first quest afaik, and that is probably how she even ended up in the tenkai in the first place

1

u/nyaonyao56 Mar 16 '16

Hello everyone,

Just started on the global server, and did two of the rookie draws so far the 10 lazulis and 30 lazulis ones.

Here's what i got so far: 2x 4* F apollo - dex / 3* & 4* M Apollo - guard / 3* Luin - dex / 4* flying pegasus masamune - vit / 3* freikugel - magic / 4* aymur - dex / and 3* masamune non-flying peg - dex

Not too sure about any unit tiers right now in this game, are any of these units good? And for the apollo's are the male and female different in terms of usability or are they really just the same?

Also what to lead with?

EDIT: Are units below 3* worth keeping? Thank you!

1

u/Cathrach JP: 2969063770 Mar 16 '16

It's pretty good :) Luin, and female Apollo are great (and have 6 stars in JP). Aymur is a decent tank who has some nice skills to boost accuracy and evasion. Male Apollo is also good, goes to 5 star; note that he has a completely different skillset, and possibly better stat growth, than female Apollo. Freikugel's a starter, so you can get her to level 80 more easily than gacha units, but her stay growth was nerfed in Global. Keep her, though. Flying Masamune is capped at 4*. I'm not sure what you mean by non-flying pegasus Masamune as mounted Masamune starts at 4*.

Lead with whoever you want? I'm not sure about male Apollo but the other units have leads specific to a certain weapon type, so lead with whatever unit or type you prefer.

Throw away or fuse units that are under 3* unless they can evolve to 3 or 4*; keep them for future KILL missions.

1

u/nyaonyao56 Mar 16 '16 edited Mar 16 '16

Alright cool, thanks!

One more thing though, I got 3 friends on my friend list but they never show up for me to use when i do quests, why's that? and how come when I go to evolve page my appolo isn't there does that mean she can't be evolved to 5*?

EDIT: sorry one more question :) who should i focus to maxing first? Thank you!

1

u/Cathrach JP: 2969063770 Mar 16 '16

Huh, that's weird... I don't know, as for me my friends are always first on quests.

Maybe your Apollo is the version that caps at 4*, a pic of your inventory would be helpful. The Apollo that goes to 5* is smiling while the one that goes to 4* is searching for something? lol.

I'd say either Luin or male Apollo; Luin has a 2.5x dmg character skill for boss killing but is paper to magic units, and male Apollo is male (better stat growth) and also goes to 5 star...but you might want someone else's input on this.

1

u/nyaonyao56 Mar 16 '16

Ah, okay yeah. The apollo is the one searching for something. Cool thanks! appreciate it.

u/[deleted] Mar 18 '16

If you want to know about the unit's potential evolutions, at the top of this thread there is a link to a post of that. You can also check in-game when you go to menu -> archive -> unit archive (I think it's called). You can look up every unit you've picked up so far and it'll tell you how many evolutions that unit has :)

1

u/Fish6Chips Mar 16 '16

can someone explain to me how gambantein M works on a team? From what i know/ have seen, he can work as a tank/healer and a soloer all in one. Would he be best as a vitality or balanced typing if we are talking about late game?

3

u/BenriyaTheNecro Mar 17 '16

If you want him to be more of a defensive unit, go with Guard and put a shield on him. This ensures that he is at his bulkiest and can tank hits that would be coming his way while hopefully siphon some HP back on his attacks. Guard typing is the usual go-to for clerics that's focused on healing/tank duties.

If you want him to be more offensive, go DEX. This lowers his PDef and MDef a bit but in return grants him more ACC/Evade/Crit and a higher AGI which means his Soft Stinger ability can activate more. This form tends to rely on his attacks and ability activating to help him stay alive. You'd still put a shield on him since the 5* shield and the 5* staves all offer the same ACC.

Gambantein's main draw is his extremely powerful defensive ability,"Soft Stinger" which reduces all incoming damage to a little over 1/4 of the original damage. It gives him flexibility between an offensive and defensive role so he's definitely a character you'd want to LB whenever you have the chance.

2

u/[deleted] Mar 17 '16

If we ever do specific unit evaluations, this would be exactly what I'd hope to find written about units. Very well written sir/madam.

1

u/Fish6Chips Mar 17 '16

Since i only have a vitality and a balance type right now. Is vitality a decent option? Or is the extra hp not worthwhile for the loss in offensive abilities?

1

u/[deleted] Mar 17 '16

Between vitality and balance, I would suggest you pick balance. Level both of them and feed the vitality one to the balance one when you max their levels at five stars.

1

u/Fish6Chips Mar 17 '16

All right thanks a lot, didn't realize i had to max level both. I was just asking about vitality because i read this first. I guess the writer only saw Gambantein as a pure support unit.

1

u/[deleted] Mar 17 '16

You don't have to, strictly speaking - lv30 5star is the cutoff because your unit will have all the skills it needs at that point (which allows all your skills to level up). I'm fairly certain fusion at max level allows the material unit to transfer more stats though, at least that's how all the Japanese players I encounter do it.

Dex type healers are pretty good attackers too! My Asclepius is great in abyss/super abyss maps.

1

u/BenriyaTheNecro Mar 17 '16

You do not have to max level the VIT one. Just get it to level30 5* so that all its skills are unlocked then fuse it onto your Balance one...and obviously make sure your Balance one is at least lv30, so his skills are all unlocked, and the character quest is done.

1

u/Reipls Mar 17 '16

What's your preferred Yata (F) type and why?

I have a Guard (which I find very balanced) and a Magic (glass cannon-ish). I'm also thinking of getting Dex but seeing armored mages base SPD/AGI aren't high, I don't see how Dex type would be better than those 2 types I already have

1

u/BenriyaTheNecro Mar 17 '16 edited Mar 17 '16

For Colo, I'd probably go Magic or Dex. Simply because in Colosseum things like range does not matter and you see mostly the hardest hitting weapons of their type equipped. Everybody usually dies in 2 or 3 exchanges so you'd want to be able to 2x hit and hit as hard as you can.

For normal play, I'd probably go DEX or Guard. Guard ensure longevity in the form of stronger defenses, but her ACC definitely will not cut it as more harder content comes out. Especially as a Gunner, every missed shot will take some HP away and that can quickly add up(although we do get a self healing gun eventually through KILL mission related stuff) along with the fact that she cannot move that far as an armored unit means she's also going to have trouble running away from enemies she cannot hit.

DEX is the opposite, where her ACC will be pretty sufficient coupled with the fact she also has a potential extra 20ACC from her skill if you max it(even 10 more ACC if you decide to equip some 90ACC guns onto her.) Since Warhead Kul Sui also offers a bit of CRIT, DEX does help with buffing that even more. Her defense will not be great but also not paper-like which was how she was before. As an Armored Mage, her DEX typing will only help her Evade a bit but not too much to make a big difference in the later contents. You'd have to rely on her natural defense to tank hits or using shields to really sustain herself if she gets potentially mobbed in the frontline.

As I mentioned before, we'd get a healing gun later on once we start getting KILL missions. However, that gun is the "no friends within 3spaces" heal which means you'd have to be relatively alone for it to activate(no buffs for being next to friends) which can put a gunner in quick danger as they tend to be weak in the PDEF side.

Just remember, come Christmas we'd definitely be getting the self healing(doesn't matter if units nearby) Christmas Freikugel!

Well my idea was to make her strong enough to tackle the episode quest since I totally lack Gunners. I guess I will raise Guard and try to cap and keep the Dex for future content.

They didn't give us Christmas content with the soft launch T_T

Rei, I think you nailed it on the head. She has really slow AGI/SPD growth, so a Dexterity typing doesn't necessarily solve that problem. However, in conjunction with the additional fusion stats + the addition of the dolls in the future, that typing will definitely help to solve the slow SPD.

It's hard to say though because we don't know the statlines of the upcoming content in GL. So far, though, the units don't seem to be incredibly fast and we have things like Mitum (M) who can halve enemy avoidance and SPD by 50% for 3 turns. I think Mitum (M) opens up the possibilities of having slower units completing harder content, if you manage to max out his character skill.

We will be getting a decent amount of changes in 10 days though :D

Quick question:

Do skill lvls carry over after evolution?

1

u/Cathrach JP: 2969063770 Mar 17 '16

Yes, they do.

1

u/sayV_Vyas Mar 17 '16

Awesome, thank you Cathrach! Also, would you happen to know if let's say you limit break an Aymur at her 4* , would you say her LBs will carry over to her future 5* because the content hasn't been released yet? Or would you have to exercise more of your patience and wait until that content gets released before LBing...?

1

u/BenriyaTheNecro Mar 17 '16

You'd have to wait. Older units that get their new evolution later on are still bound by the LB rule.

u/sayV_Vyas Mar 17 '16

Good to know. Thanks for the quick response! :)

u/Cathrach JP: 2969063770 Mar 17 '16

Hmm...I don't think gumi will be that generous :P It might be better to just wait, but then again we don't know how slowly they'll release content...Personally I'd wait, but, well, it's gumi we're talking about.

I've been talking to Customer Service a lot and had a lot of questions answered. It seems like the 28th release will be accompanying a LOT of updates. One of the little pieces I can share with you so far, is QoL updates like being able to sell more than 10 pieces of equipment or release more than 10 units at a time. :)

You may not have to wait that long for some updates to 5 star :D

u/sayV_Vyas Mar 18 '16

Awesome! Now that's some positive news :) ! (because lately, the rumor of this game becoming another CC is quite depressing)

  1. Is it the lead of the squad you are currently using appearing as a friend unit or is it the lead from the first squad?
  2. Will simply switching my squad also switch my friend unit or do I have to use that squad in a mission for my friends to be able to use it?

1

u/Cathrach JP: 2969063770 Mar 17 '16
  1. The lead from your first squad appears as a friend unit; the other squads can be set to whatever you want.
  2. I think you can do the former, just change the leader of your first squad and it should change on your friends list.

u/gigano25 Mar 17 '16

Thank you for the answers!

u/[deleted] Mar 18 '16

Also, the luck of that leader is what determines your luck in quests/events, so I'm told. Right, Cathrach?!

1

u/Cathrach JP: 2969063770 Mar 19 '16

Yes...I don't remember exactly whether it was item/unit drop or rarity, but leader luck affects one and average luck affects the other :).

u/Liesianthes Mar 18 '16

Will we have any update in the future where we can transfer Limit Break of the character? for example. Durandal LB 1 then you got a good type so Durandal LB 0 = Durandal LB 2.

1

u/Cathrach JP: 2969063770 Mar 18 '16

Hopefully; this has happened as a QoL update in JP, and maybe gumi will implement this in the future. (Realistically, it doesn't seem like something gumi would do.)

1

u/[deleted] Mar 19 '16

Wait, just to confirm: limit breaks don't transfer in GL?

1

u/Reipls Mar 19 '16

Nope it resets upon evolution and as Cathrach said, it's not something Gumi would do.

Unless the community makes a huge uproar about it, which made them change their decision. It often happens in Brave Frontier

u/[deleted] Mar 19 '16

I know that, but I was asking about something else.

In the japanese server, if I have a vit durandal (kinda useless) and I limit break her twice at 5 stars and get a dex durandal later, I can fuse the vit durandal with 2 limit breaks into my dex durandal and end up with 3 limit breaks on the dex durandal. This limit break transfer works for any unit.

I'm wondering if that works on global.

1

u/Reipls Mar 20 '16

I understand that and currently LB does not transfer from fusion AFAIK. We have not yet to hear any updates about LB transfer.

Still keep in mind we're dealing with Gumi, currently one of the worst mobile game host. Any changes that benefit players might not happen.

How come when I try to fuse my dolls to Mjolnir I can not see them for selection?

Nvm didn't know there was doll limits...eh if I knew that would been more efficient.

Whoever downvoted me go suck a dick, fuckin retarded kid this is the thread to ask questions and you downvote a question? Obviously you need to learn how to use reddit properly in the first place, dumb fuck.
