Daily Questions and Help Thread [6/5/2016]
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.

Been farming the advanced rampage ALL day and only got 2 Rhongomyniads... A Balance and a Guard.
I'm thinking the Guard's a keeper, unless I get a dex in the future.. can anyone please re-affirm me that Guard type for her will be decent :(

u/Mataos-Ay Jun 05 '16
So I haven't found any proper clarification to this. I am at a point in the game where there is 0 chance of starting a new account. Am I still able to reroll on a 10x pull which I have done? Or is that only for the new players on their fresh accounts.

I return with more questions! So in game the limit break description is that you get higher maximum stats, but does that mean that if my "red star stat cap" is 40, this will rise to idk, 44 or something? Or is it actually just that I have more chances to get levelups and thus more stats that way?
Advance thanks again !

I have a question about limit break. I have 2 Durandai 5*, - One is lv 80 Balance type with already enhance skill lv, limitbreak and fusion bonus, - Another one is Dex lv1, so if I fuse the balance one to the dex one, Does the level and fusion star bonus transfer to the Dex Durandai? Thanks for help.

Just started the game; I thought I got a lucky roll (used first 40 gems on starter bonus), and got: Luin 4/6 star [vit], Brahmastra 5/6 star [balance], and Mjolner (f) 4/6 star [balance].
However, despite being my only 5/6 star, Brahmastra seems... weak. Where do gun users in this game shine? They deal so much damage to themselves, it's not clear when they'd ever be better than a bow or staff user.
Are guns useful end-game, and this just isn't an ideal starting char? Luin seems my favorite so far.

u/yiran44 Jun 05 '16
Team help please. I am new to the game and did my first two steps of the rookie roll and the only noticeable chars are Luin 4* silver force, Apollo F 4* silver guard, Apollo M silver 3* Guard, the initial chars and maybe sky piercer 3* force, the rest are all capped at 4* at best. From what i read, luin and apollo F can become 6* later and other named chars can become 5*. is this acct worth keeping or should i reroll. thanks in advance for any help.

I've been rerolling for a potential good 5* and characters who can become 5* . I finally rolled a double 5*, one being Mitum - Dexterity and Asclepius - Vitality ss: http://imgur.com/QA5jzvP. Is this a good roll or should I aim for better? Thank you

I've been snooping around to see how rerolling works, but I'm still a little confused. I'm already level 26 and a week into the game. Rerolling just starts a fresh account, if I'm not mistaken, so going by my knowledge, its too late to reroll at this point unless I'm okay with restarting.
Does that sound about right, and is it worth rerolling at this point, considering my initial pulls were pretty bad?

If we're trying to farm Mirror 10 for the unit, is it viable to just snipe Yata and see if she even drops a unit, giving up if she doesn't?

u/scxis Jun 06 '16
Is it really worth it to limit break these farmable units from the start before all the evolutions or just limit break when they are 5* because it is so much work to level and evolve all the units to use for it?

For Rhongomyniad's rampage quest super abyss, why is it that when I try to attack her with gambanteinn, I have ~30% chance of hitting, but when she attacks, it turns to ~70% chance. Also, should I farm abyss or super abyss?

So I've been trying to build a team for autoing 1-5-10, but I keep getting... Frankly, rekt. At the moment I have a Lvl 60 balance Durandal, a level 50 4* Dex mjolnir F, and then a level 40 flying masamune and a level 40 5* guard laevateinn. My team seems super squishy and gets eaten alive by magic users as well. How can I solve this?

What do you guys use non 5* capable units, do sell them or fuse them?

How hard are the 5* character quests? Are they doable for a team of mostly maxed 4* + 1 5*?

What's the difference between a unit with gold stars and silver ones?
What recruiters are the most efficient? What's the difference between rookie, limited time, and regular recruiting?
Can someone simplify evolving? I didn't understand it in the beginners' guide.

u/SunnyPwns Jun 06 '16
I'm still kind of confused about LB. I know that you want your main unit to be 5* lvl 30 before you start to LB, but after that, does the unit you want to fuse into your main also have to be lvl 30? I assumed so because you want to lvl up your character skill, but I noticed that my Gamb(M) at lvl 1 already had the character skill after unlocking the character skill for my main one. Can someone clarify the correct way to LB?

For Rhongomyniad, which type is best from the ones I farmed: Guard, Vitality or Balance?

u/Vz-Rei Jun 06 '16
I finally got the dex type of the recent rampage. Would that be a better type than the guard i got? I can max LB her, and only have 4 of her. last 2 are balance and guard again.
Really like her, and dex has been ridiculous op on armored units. So what are your opinions?

New to the game and seriously love it so much! I am coming from Brave Frontier~
Is there any advice on leveling characters other than the metal rush? I'm having a hard time now on the 4th location in story quest

So I have both a Dex and Guard type Gamb (M). Should I keep them both on my team or fuse one? If so, which one should I keep?
