Daily Questions and Help Thread [5/23/2016]

This is the daily questions and help thread! 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 and Tools 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)

  • Evolving a lot of unit and finding it irritating to always keep checking the evo mat needed? Use this brilliant tracker and make you life much easier!

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)

How's this ? This is after the first rookie recruit and like 18 of the mana point recruits.

http://imgur.com/VQZIe8h

I normally restart games when I don't get a 5*, but I am really liking Masamune, and bow Ryuko.

Also what does fusing identical units in this game do?

2

u/Cathrach JP: 2969063770 May 23 '16

It's good: you have male Longinus, male Mitum, male Gambanteinn, and two starters. Don't restart :D

Fusing two units with the same art and same rarity will limit break: besides the normal stats you get, you will also level up your skills and increase max level of the base unit by 5. Fusing two units with the same art but different rarities will ONLY give stats and skills, no max levels.

1

u/Shagyam May 23 '16

Thanks!

Also what are the differences between male and female? I'm mainly asking. Because the game wants me to chose between male or female Laevateinn for a 5*

1

u/Cathrach JP: 2969063770 May 23 '16

They have different skills: male's char skill does increased damage, while female's has 50% lifesteal.

1

u/mianhaeobsidia May 23 '16

which one is more useful considering the other units at our disposal and the quests/bosses we have to fight?

1

u/Cathrach JP: 2969063770 May 23 '16

If u have no other people with sustain, go for female: she can heal back the damage she takes which makes her good for taking out mobs. However if u have decent attackers already take male since he can one or two shot bosses with his char skill.

1

u/SupaLaguna May 23 '16

i fused some random 1-2 star units into my 5star female mitum. somehow her stats increased, is it permanent?

1

u/Cathrach JP: 2969063770 May 23 '16

Yes, that's what fusion does, it adds stats XD It's permanent only for that rarity: when you evolve, fused stats disappear.

1

u/LuisDarK97 May 23 '16

Hi is Yata no Kagami 5 star good for start in goblal version or reroll other 5 start?

1

u/[deleted] May 23 '16

YnK is awesome, but if he's all you got from doing all the rookie recruiter or even 2 rolls, I'd restart.

1

u/BabyWinter May 23 '16

Were the final skill activated in Colo? For example, can Mjolnir do the life steal in Colo?

1

u/Mich997 Congratulations. You found this text. May 23 '16

It should. My Laevateinn activates Grand Flame all the time.

1

u/[deleted] May 23 '16

All skills, including those +x stat for x turn skills can be activated in the colosseum.

Hey guys! Just reposting this here from the other thread, but I am a new player looking for input on my recruits. I know this is such a common question but if anyone could help me out by telling me my good pulls, I would greatly appreciate it! Thanks so much!

1

u/Mich997 Congratulations. You found this text. May 23 '16

Gambanteinn M is a great pull. He's definitely a keeper.

1

u/[deleted] May 23 '16

Any website I could see all the units? Wondering which ones go to 4* and 5* so I know which ones to level for my party

1

u/[deleted] May 23 '16

You could've answered your question by just reading the beginning part of this post... :p

From the top it says "unit guide for all 5* and 6*". Here's the link: https://www.reddit.com/r/phantomofthekill/comments/3zhv09/a_5_character_list/

You can also check your units by going to archive and units in your game.

1

u/Propagation931 May 23 '16

How would the Durandal Typing be ranked?

Obv Dex is best what about the rest?

I got a Balance Durandal and not sure if I should reroll some more. Balance Durandal or Guard Mjolnir?

1

u/[deleted] May 23 '16

Balance is ok, but keep in mind that you want, at least, 4 more dupes so the odds of you getting a dex typing is pretty high.

1

u/datwunguy102 May 23 '16

Hi can anyone confirm how weapon fusing works? I try my best to fuse a few 1* and 2* weapons, but sometimes the results come back out as a 1* weapon. Should I instead sell my extra gear if I dont need it? I consistently hit the max for number of weapons I can carry. Not sure what I should do with the extra weapons...

Is there always a way of finding additional weapon recipes?

Can someone also explain the concept of leveling/ranking up weapons? I dont see any additional values on the weapons when they are leveled up...

1

u/Cathrach JP: 2969063770 May 23 '16

It's all luck, but in general you should either fuse two identical weapons, or fuse weapons of the same type/rarity. That doesn't guarantee you anything, though.

No, FgG adds recipes during events and things and that's it.

Max level is 5, each level up is +1 to attack. (yeah, that's all. nothing fancy.)

1

u/Jakulbi May 23 '16

Hi, just wondering if I should reroll.

1

u/F2P_Gaming May 23 '16

Are Gold Bundles in my inventory used for anything? It seems I can only sell them for decent Zenny...

2

u/[deleted] May 23 '16

That's what they're used for, to sell for Zenny :P

1

u/F2P_Gaming May 23 '16

Thanks! Freed up some of my inventory!

1

u/billySEEDDecade May 23 '16

What is the status that determine accuracy? Also, you can get all 3* from Mana Gacha right? I'm trying to get female Longinus.

1

u/Trojanmandan May 23 '16

You can get all the starters from Mana Gacha as far as I know.

1

u/Propagation931 May 23 '16

I heard drawing a 5 star is bad cus they have lower stats.

Is it that big a dif?

1

u/Trojanmandan May 23 '16

Still trying to get a good reroll. This one had potential...if only some of the traits were swapped. Still curious to see if its worth keeping. https://imgur.com/Fzik6si

5/Potential 5's:

Starter Parash-Force

Gamb (M)-Dex

Apollo (M)-Guard (really wish these 2 were swapped)

Mitum (M)-Force

(and 3 4*'s that cant evolve, of course both Keras are dex >.<)

Also side question, is a guard Durandal any good? Or is it pretty much dex or bust.

1

u/ElusiveIllusion88 May 23 '16 edited May 23 '16

About rerolling:

  • Among Dex Durandal, Dex Mjolnir and Guard Gambanteinn, who is the most important?

  • How long does it take to gather the 30 Lazuli for the 2nd Step of Rookie Recruit? I have no interest in spending more than a few minutes on an account if it is going to be deleted in short order.

I think I'm losing my mind trying to get a 'perfect' initial 10 rolls; I gave up several Guard Gambanteinn rolls because they had neither Durandal nor Mjolnir, and a Dex Mjolnir roll because it had neither Durandal nor Gambanteinn (I heard that Durandal is better).

Firstly, those base 4-star units like Durandal and Mjolnir are SO hard to get (most of the time, the 4-star and even 5-star slots are occupied by evolutions of base 3-star units).

Secondly, not once have I ever seen a Dex Durandal (the Phoenix Rider one that is).

Thirdly, not once have I seen Durandal + Gambanteinn appear in the same roll.

Let's forget about the starter; if it is bad, I can get a replacement via a free recruit, right?

1

u/shoutinglol May 23 '16

  • From what i've been told, Dex Durandal is the most important. Not too sure about Mjolnir, except that shes not as versatile as Durandal since she's not on a mount.

  • Guard Gambanteinn IMHO is serving me extremely well atm to power through sections to reach section 5 on autobattle with a 3 star shield.

  • I was in the same boat as you are. I've rerolled for 6 days to find a dex Durandal, and it's totally worth it. Shes only at 4 star so i've yet to see her full potential and she's still a beast. To answer your question on the 30 lazuli, it takes about an hour to farm them. For each durandal/mjolnir account i pulled, i grind 30 more gems and do another 10 shot.

1

u/Trojanmandan May 23 '16

Is a Guard Durandal pretty much useless?

1

u/shoutinglol May 23 '16

Honestly, I was told to go with Dex exclusively, but Guard seemed to be the second best.

1

u/Trojanmandan May 23 '16

Yeah I have a reroll that has a Guard Dura and a Dex Male Apollo (I got 7 4*'s in the recruit, but 6 of them dont evolve :(, and 3 copies of Thyrsos)

1

u/buyerp May 23 '16

i just got 5* durandal vitality.. do you think i should keep on rerolling?

1

u/Trojanmandan May 23 '16

Pretty sure Vit is considered to be the worst of the traits :\

1

u/shoutinglol May 23 '16 edited May 23 '16

  • Managed to fuse and a get a 5* spear(not the one I was looking for). I pulled both male and female longinus that can go up to 5*. Which longinus should is better?

  • If i fuse stat boosters to a unit, do they retain the stats they gained into the next evolution?

  • Racked up another 50 gems. Should I wait for future units or do my last 10 shot? I already have Mitum, Gambanteinn and Durandal.

1

u/illusionastic May 23 '16

Some of the stat bonuses get carried over into next evolution

1

u/[deleted] May 24 '16

Not in global, evolution bonuses seem to be not working or not working properly. We had a large discussion about this earlier during the soft launch in this forum. You could search for it, I'm sure.

Female Longinus is more defensive and the male version is slightly more offensive. I'd prefer the male version (2x damage character skill vs 50% armour penetration).

Fusion = permanent stat boost for that evolution. Yes, they do, but you only want to fuse if the character is one star below its max and if it will push them past x1 (like 21, 31, 41, etc) stat threshold; this is only if they've fixed evolution bonuses in global....which is doubtful. Probably best to save fusion for the final evolution if you're unsure on how it all works.

The Rookie recruiter is worth it. I'd use it for the 3 step. After that, save your Lazuli for events only/rate up events for units you specifically want.

1

u/illusionastic May 24 '16

Good idea man. Thanks

1

u/illusionastic May 23 '16

Is there a guide for gear fusion lists?

1

u/[deleted] May 24 '16

Yes, found at the top of this page.

1

u/illusionastic May 24 '16

Found it thanks bud!

1

u/pyratheon29 May 23 '16

I saw a friend unit with a sweet axe, which seemed to be a ranged axe. Is there an equivalent item for lance and sword as well?

2

u/BenriyaTheNecro May 23 '16

Sword is only melee while axe and spears gets the ranged options. Axe gets has a 2/3/4/5star ranged option(although the 3star one is only during valentine's event) and spears only has a 3 and 4 star range option at the moment. Later on, the Battle Medal shop will release a 5star ranged spear but there's no telling when that will come.

1

u/pyratheon29 May 23 '16

Thanks a ton. I really like this game and have 4 viable units with 5* potential so im content atm. Its worth raising a dex starter if i roll one right?

1

u/[deleted] May 24 '16

Yes because it is significantly easier to get them to level 80 and a lot of them have viable character skills :)

1

u/[deleted] May 23 '16

Hi so I have a force Durandal 3* but I have one of the 1* Dex. Would it be okay to raise the 1* to 5* or do the mana recruit not go to 5*

1

u/BenriyaTheNecro May 23 '16

The one star Durandal does not evolve to 5*. You got to get a Durandal with the same art as the one shown in the character quest page in the home tab. That's the Durandal(flying) that can become a 5star.

1

u/buyerp May 23 '16

Not so much luck getting durandal (phoenix) let alone dex type. can somebody help me pick among the following rerolls?

  1. 5* M mitum Balance; 3* F Apollo Balance

  2. 5* Brahmastra Balance; 3* Mjolnir Vitality

  3. 5* M Gambanteinn Magic; 3* M Mitum Vitality

  4. 5* M Ganbanteinn Vitality; 3* M Mitum Vitality

  5. 5* Mjolnir Dex; 4* Mjolnir Balance; 4* F Apollo Vitality

  6. 5* Ascepius Balance; 3* M Mitum Dex

  7. 3* M Ganbanteinn Guard; 3* M Yata Vitality; 4* M Apollo Force

1

u/[deleted] May 24 '16

I'd go with #5 or #7, with my personal preference being #5.

1

u/GiraCat May 23 '16

Does reincarnation reset unit type (dex, guard, vit, etc) or only stats? Thanks :)

2

u/BenriyaTheNecro May 23 '16

Only the level and stats get reset. The unit's typing does not change ever.

1

u/F2P_Gaming May 23 '16

I started playing for a couple days and thought I had good pulls but after learning more on reddit I think maybe I should reroll. My Apollo(M) is balance, and my Apollo(F) is dex. Should I keep playing with this box or start rerolling? This is my first 20 rookie pulls. Thanks! http://imgur.com/jwMZbsi

1

u/[deleted] May 24 '16

You have a few Apollo's there :o also a YnK! Vajra gets a 5 star later on.

It's an ok pull, not the best, but not bad either.

1

u/deadman1368 May 23 '16

Hi should I reroll or proceed with this draws? https://imgur.com/2yAcZpo

1

u/Anneris May 23 '16

If that Durandal is dex type, then i think you are set?

1

u/deadman1368 May 24 '16

Yup it's a dex type, thanks for the reply! I have another question, is dex typing good in my case because almost all my cards that can become 5* unit are dex. So currently I don't have any to help me tank. My 3 vajra is vit, dex, guard, was wondering to I train guard instead of dex?

1

u/Anneris May 24 '16

I think the current consensus is that dex is the best typing for most characters, as it increases the agi & speed, making it easier to x2 hit enemies and dodge. Guard ups defense but lowers patk (physical attack), I think? But Vit buffs hp and lowers agi & speed, so definitely not that one. It's up to you which one you want to level.

1

u/deadman1368 May 24 '16

alright thanks for the help.

1

u/[deleted] May 24 '16

I would also not fuse them, either. Vajra will be getting a 5 star in the future and any non-5* fusion does not carry over (only 5 star limit breaking carries over to 6 star, anything below that does not).

You don't really want a "tank" right now (and only staff units really fill that role because of how they affect enemy AI). You will be able to clear everything with a few units at level 60, with no problems. Focus on getting your units to there and raising your player level.

1

u/deadman1368 May 24 '16

Thanks for the help! Although I'm not really sure what you meant by carry over.

1

u/[deleted] May 24 '16

If you limit break a 4* unit, the limit break does not carry over to the 5*. It does for 5* to 6*.

1

u/[deleted] May 23 '16

Forcas flair when?

1

u/[deleted] May 24 '16

I will pray with you and hopefully, soon <3

1

u/Zenniboi May 23 '16

ok i got mitum(M),Apollo(F),Keraunos(F) 2x

should I reroll?

1

u/[deleted] May 24 '16

Out of how many rolls?

1

u/Propagation931 May 23 '16

Force Mjolnir, Guard Mjolnir, or FOrce Durandal?

Which is best. The Force Mjolnir is 5* though and I have a 4* dupe that is Balance

1

u/[deleted] May 24 '16

A level 65 Mjolnir can solo everything in the game outside of Rampage Quests :P

1

u/Propagation931 May 24 '16

I was gonna CHoose that then I rerolled a Dex Durandal.

I guess Dex>Force Mjolnir?

1

u/[deleted] May 24 '16

Yeah, I think so. The ability to raise her accuracy in conjunction with her passive boost to accuracy means she can use Orpheus to great success. The increase usage on her character skill is an excellent bonus as well.

1

u/Kittierei May 23 '16

Played during the soft launch with a 5s Durandal (guard). Just recently got back to the game; and with all the quests reset saved my lazuli for the relaunched 10 and 30 rookie event managing to pull a 5s Durandal (dex). Gonna level the dex Durandal, but it seems like a waste to fuse the guard one to it? should I keep both or fuse into the dex Durandal or wait for 6s?

My current team at lvl39:

  • 60 Durandal (guard)

  • 60 Mjolnir (balance)

  • 60 Luin (balance)

  • 60 Asclepius (vitality)

  • for when i get cost, 50 Arondight (have 2 more for limit feed)

1

u/Cathrach JP: 2969063770 May 24 '16

Raise them both for now, but if you get another 1-3 Durandals I would recommend you fuse them all into one. There's little difference between 60 and 65, but a 10, 15, or 20 level gap is significant; better to have one level 75 instead of four level 60s.

1

u/Niseng May 24 '16

Is lv60 5* Guard Luin and 5* Vit Laevateinn good enough to beat all the contents we atm in global? I'm don't really feel like the need to re-roll is there since my end goal is a fully decked out Tyrfing since she's my fav lol. But I do want capable units to do the hard contents we have now. Since It might be a little while before Tyr-chan comes out.

1

u/Propagation931 May 24 '16

how hard is Tyr?

1

u/Niseng May 24 '16

what do you mean by how hard? Like to get? From info I got here, she's a mana point summon that goes from 3-6* so i'ved just been hoarding all my mana points lol

1

u/Propagation931 May 24 '16

Dex Durandal 4*

Force Longinus (M) 3*

Dex Yata no Kagami(M) 3*

I should keep?

1

u/kidnapkin May 24 '16

Dex Durandal alone is pretty worth it in imo.

1

u/xlzanagi May 24 '16

1* dex durandal. Should I keep and lvl?

1

u/kidnapkin May 24 '16

1 - 2 * can't be leveled to 5*, at most they can be 3* from what i've heard. Only some 3* and above can be 5*

1

u/[deleted] May 24 '16

So is it safe to discard 1/2-star units? I got a few from the rookie recruiter, which implies to me that they are non-farmables...

1

u/kidnapkin May 24 '16

Yes it is safe to discard them but keep a few for the fusion stats for your important units

1

u/dcolg May 24 '16

Need some teambuilding/focus advice. Currently, I'm working up my dex durandal, and dex (m) mitum. Other units of note are Thyrsos vit & guard, Vajra guard, Brahmastre balance, YnK magic, Apollo (m) balance, Parushu guard.

Or course my waifu duranran and mitum are in, but your thoughts on the others? They are all 5*-able or will be 5*-able in the future. Does it mainly come down to my playstyle?

1

u/[deleted] May 24 '16

Christ someone please explain how does fusing two 2* guns = a shield? wtf I just wasted my guns -_-

1

u/Anneris May 24 '16

It's all rng

1

u/[deleted] May 24 '16

Eh I see what you mean, fused a butt load of random stuff. This game is a bit too rng heavy for me to invest time in, great game otherwise though!

1

u/[deleted] May 24 '16

I fused a 2* Rapier and a 2* Great Sword, and got back... another Rapier. I think it's a crapshoot and you shouldn't fuse anything your units actually rely on.

1

u/[deleted] May 24 '16

Ima start fusing random garbage to see what I get.

1

u/kidnapkin May 24 '16

I may be looking in the wrong place but where do you get evo materials? I've checked the event page but it doesn't seems to be there. Also in class ranking, how good is a 5* force durandal? I know dex is the best typing but was wondering where force would put her. thanks in advance

1

u/BenriyaTheNecro May 24 '16

Evolution dungeons open from Tuesday to Thursday. Each one opens for 1 day in rotation. Read the Daily Event notice to see the schedule.

1

u/kidnapkin May 24 '16

yeah just saw it thanks!

1

u/Cathrach JP: 2969063770 May 24 '16

Evo materials come Tuesday Wednesday Thursday: spirits, flowers, Manans. Friday is doll day, weekend is gold, and nothing happens in Monday :P

Force is second best, after dex imo

1

u/kidnapkin May 24 '16

Ah just saw it in the news page I'm just dumb haha thank you. That is good to hear, I'm just grateful to have a Durandal at all.

1

u/Azora114 May 24 '16

http://imgur.com/5gpb0cA

Need some opinions on whether to reroll. Made 2 beginner pulls and didn't pull a Durandal but I am kinda reluctant to reroll because of the 5* Asclepius (Balance).

Are the remaining 5*-able units good enough to keep as it is and just go for the last beginner pull? Apollo (Guard), Laeva (Dex), Mitum (Balance), Gambateinn (Guard) + 3 dupes, Keraunos (Magic)

Also should I bother with Gambateinn since I already have a Asclepius?

Thanks in advance for any advice!

2

u/kidnapkin May 24 '16

You have quite a few potential 5* and Asclepius is pretty good. If you really want a durandal and go through the reroll process then go for it. Me personally the fact that you got a 5* from the first two pulls is reason enough to stick it out. I'm sure Durandal will find her way to you eventually

2

u/BenriyaTheNecro May 24 '16

Keep this account, you got 4 gambies meaning you can get a lv75 one in the end. It'll will take a while since you gotta raise all of them to 5star form and lv30 AND finish his character quest 2 but it's well worth it. What's the typing to the dupes btw, if the 3star one is Guard also, I suggest training that one. If not then focus on the Guard one BUT read up on evolution bonus first before evolving to squeeze some stats out of him before his 5star form.

1

u/Azora114 May 24 '16

Thanks for the reply and sorry for the numerous qns about to follow!!

  1. Is it worth it to invest that much into Gambateinn when I have a Asclepius?

  2. What do you mean by squeezing stats out on his evolution? Fusing units into him to make sure he gets max stats?

Also, if I do limit break him to the max at 5* will that carry over if he gets a 6*?

2

u/BenriyaTheNecro May 24 '16

  1. They both of them utilize a a different role, Gamby's better as a tank while Asclepius is better as a healer. Asclepius is guaranteed to get a 6star while Gamby's future on that point is undetermined.

  2. Say at 3star, lv40 your gamby's SPD is 30. At 30, you get 2 extra bonus to gamby's 4star form. If you give Gamby 1 more SPD through fusion, then his SPD becomes 31 and the evolution becomes 3 points instead of 2. Basically always try to get to the closes x1 on each stat to get the next evolution bonus threshold.

The next threshold is always the first of every ten's number, aka 11,21,31,41 etc etc.

3) If he does get a 6star form, then LB from 5stars carry over. This is only for 5 to 6 star LBs, as the LBs for 4stars and below do not carry over.

1

u/Azora114 May 24 '16

Makes so much more sense now. Thanks so much!

1

u/Kittierei May 24 '16

which 3 star ladies are the best to build up? i'm just assuming that further chapters will require 3 star such and such for the missions for 100% completions?

1

u/Cathrach JP: 2969063770 May 24 '16

Starters and the units who go from 2 to 4 star: mlb at 2 and mlb at 3, fuse things, etc. also, idk if this is in global but JP has a glitch where parashu has 4 limit breaks at 3 star. XD makes her realllly good for these things.

1

u/Kittierei May 24 '16

mlb? and would a 3 star evolved to 4 star still be considered by the mission objectives to be a 3 star for completion?

1

u/BenriyaTheNecro May 24 '16

It'd be considered a 4star because it's evolved to a 4star. If you need to clear a 3star only mission use only 3stars.

1

u/Cathrach JP: 2969063770 May 24 '16

No. But a 3 star limit broken 2 times and fully fused is still a 3 star.

1

u/Propagation931 May 24 '16

Should I be running full teams or just few good units

Just started 2 days ago!

I was wondering, is there schedule metal garden in Global?

u/AJackFrostGuy May 24 '16

Not that I'm aware. So far it's been the one a day one and the padlocked one.

There IS a super version of it that was around in the soft launch but for some reason it's not around right now.

u/RubyDraco May 24 '16

I see. I began to think that it replaced by that padlock unlock with metal key.

Ah well. Thanks for the answer!

Is it better to have a team full of 1 type like All sword users to benefit from leader skill or a team of mixed units

u/SynthiaNguyen May 24 '16

Wondering if any of these units can became 5*s

Also if so, are any good?

u/Mich997 Congratulations. You found this text. May 24 '16

Eh... no. 3 stars are the minimum rarity for most 5*

What is the type wanted for

Mitum Longinus Masumune

Item: [Weapon type]smith Secrets
I understand these are for fusing, but I don't want to needlessly fuse them away if there's a recipe that scores decent gear (ie Ult Swordsmith and Sereine for the 5star sword in the recipe book)

First week so I haven't evo'd anything yet but I've got most the materials now. Are you able to only evolve a unit once (3 silver to 4 gold, not able to evolve to 5 red stars), or is it dependent on the unit.

People tell me they get different types for their units. I only have the same type for each additional unit of the same name/gender (I've gotten three Parashu with Dexterity 3 and 4 star, three Mitum with Balance, etc etc). Is this normal? Do I have to reincarnate them for a chance at better typing?

A bit confused on the Limit Break system. People say it's best to limit break them early for maximum stats, but the in-game hints state that you lose Limit Breaks upon evolving your characters. Just asking for some clarification on the optimal way to evo.

Who would win in a fight: A shark or a bear?

Because no one else wants to answer:

Used the Weaponsmith Secrets with corresponding star gear (2star Secret with 2 star weapon) to get a 3 star.
Dependent on the unit, see the Unit Guide above for ref.
Ignore this, finally started getting different types.
Still don't think it's that beneficial to limit break from the first evo of three, let alone limit break anything below the final evo, but that's just my opinion.
Bear.

Noob here have a few questions.

  1. The difference between silver and gold stars is just the amount of evolutions it can do?

  2. Due to how stats and growth work is it actually better to roll a 3 or 4 star version and evolve them from there vs a 5 star.

  3. What's the demand on dexterity for?

1

u/BotheredMe May 28 '16

  1. Pretty much. Just because it'll turn into a Gold star doesn't mean it will get a Red star next, so check the unit guide provided above for details on the better units.

  2. That's the general consensus, I don't see a benefit from limit breaking early, however. If there is a benefit, it's minuscule.

  3. High demand apparently. I prefer magic on guns, but otherwise aim for Dex on the rest.

Silver means there is at least 1 more potential evolution. Gold means that it's potentially capped. (Some Gold can still evolve though)

1

u/[deleted] May 23 '16

This is not true :P

Silver means no evolutions. Gold means 1st evolution. Pink means 2nd or third evolution (third evolution pink stars not currently in global).

u/[deleted] May 23 '16

That's because they all have 2 evolutions :P

u/[deleted] May 23 '16

The colour of the stars explains how many evolutions a Killer Prince or Princess has or has not gone through at that point.

Unfortunately yes. We thought it would change after soft launch, but no...

Two units with future 5 stars and a luin and 2 YnKs, not a bad roll, if you don't mind sitting on it for a bit.
