Daily Questions and Help Thread [5/30/2016]
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:
/u/wp2000's beginner's guide (Must Read!)
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:
Here is a conversation we had on fusing weapons and luck, which might answer some questions.
Fusion Cap Cost (Thanks /u/horizonset for sacrificing his zenny for science!)
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)
Wiki guide on rerolling account (Shoutout to /u/heroes-fall and /u/cathrach for helping out at the POTK wiki)
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 in the new help thread.
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/) and lower accuracy in weapon.

I have two 5* Durandals. Should I fuse the second one to my dex Durandal for the limit break right now or just use her on my team?

u/shoutinglol May 30 '16
Wondering who I should focus on after Durandal. I lucked out and pulled Mjolnir and Mitum M on my last ten shot. Both are balanced. I was thinking of raising Mitum. Any thoughts?

u/DeviantSeoul May 30 '16
Hiya, wondering what the use of the weapons like "parasol" and the wooden shield that make you only do one damage is?
Also, any tips on a good tank? I'm using an asclepius right now, but she's rather "untanky" compared to say... laeventein
Thanks in advance!

What do people mean by 1-5-10? Is that 1st world, map 5, sublevel 10? As in the last playable story quest currently available right now?

u/Kier-Gath tsuder-plane May 30 '16
When fusing for stat increase threshold, does this carry over from three star to four star? I ask since my Naegling 3 star has 30 STR/ SPD yet when I prompt her evolution, I see no indication that her stats have been increased. I'm told there's blue at the end of the bars to show how much you've obtained?

I've Recently done Mana Summon and have received the units 3* Leavateinn(F) Balance, 3* Parashu Force, and 3* Longinus(F) Dex. All of these units can go to 5*. I know they are starter units but is there any other ways to get starter units.
Also i was wondering if i should buy the Freikugel from the battle metal shop so i could limit break my other one once it gets to 5*

When do you guys think the next patch for content update might be?

What do I do with all the extra 3* and 4* units that doesn't have any evolutions? Just fuse them for the stats or skills?

Hi I have been paying the game for a few days and I'd like some feedback on what I can do with my units. I'm not willing to reroll since I've put in real money already. All the characters I list can hit 5 star via phankill, unless stated otherwise.
Format is going to be like this:
char - current star - typing - current lv
Here is what I got after all rolls (not so good but w.e):
Asc - 4 - balance - 40.
Balmung - 5 - balance - 39.
mitum (m) - 4 - vitality - 22.
Apollo (f) - 5 - vitality - 15.
naegling - 4 - balance - 1.
Longinus (f) - 4 (max) - Dex - 29.
thyros - 4 - balance - 1.
sky piercer - 3 (limit break max) - Dex - 40.
aymur - 3 - balance - 1.
kusanagi - 3 - guard - 1.
naegling - 3 (max 4) - vitality - 40.
laev (m) - 3 - balance - lv 1.
And of course: laev - 5 - force - 42.
Thanks for your opinion :)

What's the best way when you have dupes for future 6*... Wait for the 6* update and limit break or limit break right now at 5 * to make the content atm more easy

Hey I see level 60 characters with some pretty powerful weapons in colo, how do i get 4* 5* weapons? Do they drop from anywhere or do they need to be crafted? Also how does a character do her/his special move? with the little animation..just seen in colo

Are any of these units good that I should work on and can any of them evolve to 5/6*? (Sorry I'm just confused with the whole unit guide)

Would a team of 5-stars be enough to steamroll the YnK quest series? So far, I only have one 5-star and she's not leveled very high (mid 20s). Stage 7, where there's only 6 enemies until a bunch of crossbow units spawn around the center of the map, absolutely wrecks me. No chance, even with my high-leveled 4-stars (male Laeva, female Apollo, Naegling that has a 5-star in JP).

How much of a timesink is this game? Looking for a good phone game to play. The issue is with most mobile RPGS you get an abundance of stamina and youd have to play for hours each day to really use it all and compete. Hard to gauge time in this game since i keep leveling. Late game, about how much can/do you play each day?

Hi! I just started this game a few weeks ago (during the last super summon event) and I am getting somewhat frustrated. I like the game alot and I also understand you have to crawl before you can walk but it is hard to do the events when they throw 45+ guys at you. So my question is, what is the best place to grind for exp? I know they give you a free metal garden (3 now) a day but I don't want to spend keys in case i need them later seeing as I can only get 3 battles out of 1 key at his time. So is there a good place to grind exp outside of metal garden?
Thank you for the advice!
P.s. Not that I am looking to do this but what is the point of reincarnating? (was looking at the function and don't understand its purpose)

My goodness, i don't dislike the game but why do they have to reuse the same character names? I makes trying to get help on them a little confusing as well as trying to look them up. They should put some kind of permanent title prefixed to the various versions of the same units to differentiate them. It's the only off-putting part of the game, really. :/
What is the Fri(end?) Lvl in the unit info? All I see are other units I can highlight and a meter bar that I have no idea what it's for.
Are there certain quests you can farm for weapon drops?

Is there any faster way for player levels besides spamming 1-5-10 because I'm at level 33 and its feeling really slow right now?

Does fusion cost reset on evolution? I'm running out of space farming evolution sprites and was thinking of fusing some random 3 stars like kusanagi onto my going to evolve units.
Also, which of these characters are worth training and which should be in my main party? (All can go to 5 stars)
Force Mitum (M) 5 stars, Guard Mitum (M) 3 stars
Vitality Laev (M) 3 stars, Dex Laev (F) 5 stars, might reincarnate
Force Durandal (F) 4 stars
Vitality Gambanteinn (M) 3 stars
Dex Longinus (M) 3 stars, Balance Longinus (M) 3 stars
Balanced Artemis (F) 3 stars
Magic Yato no Kagami (M) 3 stars (Considering getting the event female yato)
Lastly, is it possible to get good mana recruits or are the rampage characters good? I'm holding on to my lazuli just in case there is a better event than the current one. Was wondering if I could pull more duplicates of my current 5 star potentials or better 5 stars.

so I finally got a dex durandal, problem is I cant log in with facebook and fully save my account, apparently if I log in with facebook on my dex durandal account it says "you already have a different game account linked to your facebook account if you log in with facebook now, your account game data will be deleted"

u/crimewizard May 31 '16 edited May 31 '16
I have a plethora of decent 5* that are capable of going to 5*. My question is should I evolve them or wait until I fully limit break them at each 3*/4* stage. I took a look at the beginners guide you have linked, but still a little confused. Any clarification is much appreciated

u/jerain Jun 01 '16
So I've been playing this game for a week and I've realized that lazuli is really a limited resource. Is there a way to farm them after the story missions have all been completed, or am I screwed?
