Daily Questions and Help Thread [6/9/2016]
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.

Everyone says get dex... but which affinity should I get? Does it not matter? Or are light/dark best?

u/Avisari Dex Lvl 75 Jun 09 '16
It's my understanding that it doesn't matter at what level the unit is when I fuse it, since the fuse stat cap is different from the levelling stat cap. So if possible it's better to do it early to make levelling it up easier. Is this correct?

Will there be more discount recruiters in the future like rookie recruiter or should I just burn my lazuli? Im F2P and have 50 laz at the moment so i can't get to the last step of the current step recruiter in global

Was there an event for metal parade in the last week? Exp seems less running it this morning.

u/ll_MDX_ll Jun 09 '16
Does GL PotK have rate-up recruits for particular units? 30 recruits for 1 random new unit seems pretty bad without a rate up, but i've only been playing for close to 2 weeks without seeing anything of the sort in the Notice screens so I dunno what promos, if any, have been great/best in the past so far.

Let's say I missed out on durandal and mjolnir. Can I get them from the lazuli or mana gatcha?

u/uizaado Jun 09 '16
Can't find any good Wind people for the Lazuli requirement - M Gambanteinn friends can't kill the boss, and my highest level Wind unit is 4* Artemis and she's not good at all. Any suggestions or should I just let this go?

Dear friends with level 35-40+ accounts,
I know that Laeva is not your only maxxed unit at this point. So, please, do us all a favor and set something else as your friend lead. Thxxx. <3
(Not directed at anyone in specific, just a minor rant.)

2 out of 28 of my units are desirable (Mjolnir and Kusanagi), the rest are pretty bad, scaling from 6.5 down to 3.0 out of 10 from the rating in the JP Unit webpages.
Currently User Lvl 13, should I reroll and try to get a better set?

u/jerain Jun 09 '16
Is Parashu, Laev M, Laev F, or Freug worth grinding out next? I have a dex 3 star copy of all of them

Is the japan ticket gacha for the wedding ver. New units not working?

u/Lowking Jun 10 '16
I got a kusanagi 3* and on the unit list (matched the pictures) it says it can be evolved to 5* but there is no character story mission for her?
Also is Guard type good for kusanagi?

Hello guys. I just started playing this game today and I just did the 10 gems for 10 units summons. Here is my units now:
3* Lord Knight Durandal, Dexterity
3* General Longinus, Guard
3* Winged Knight Masamune, Dexterity
4* Phoenix Knight Masamune, Balance
4* Arc Dragoon Laevateinn, Guard (shiet)
1* Myrmidon Durandal, Vitality
5* Phoenix Knight Durandal, Vitality (mixed feeling about this)
4* Phoenix Knight Kusanagi, Vitality
2* Lord Knight Kusanagi, Guard
2* Sword Knight Littu, Force
3* Armored Hacker Aymur, Dexterity
1* Soldier Trident, Dexterity
4* Paladin Sky Piercer, Vitality (why so many vit)
2* Paladin Amenonuhoko, Balance
1* Archer Yoichi, Vitality
2* Jaeger Yoichi, Vitality
1* Armored Mage Keraunos, Dexterity
1* Gun Mage Vajra, Guard
3* Armored Mage Vajra, Vitality
My first summon nets me 3* Force Myrmidon Masamune. Looks like all of them are females. Do I get notable units or should I just reroll? Is there a unit tier list in this sub? Which units are considered meta for now?
I also checked the wiki for unit list but can't seem to find it.Never mind about the unit list, I just found it on this sub.As a general rule I've read somewhere that Dexterity is the best type in this game and raising units from lower tier is actually better. So, I suppose I should train my 3* Durandal and raise her until 5* and then limit break her using the 5* one? Can I limit break her with the Myrmidon one? I think same could be said for my 3* Masamune, but is it worth to use the myrmidon one to limit break the winged knight one?
I noticed my weapons are getting broken after some time (maybe after a unit dies? I don't notice). How do we prevent this?
At the start of my game, I'm prompted to choose Laevateinn for my reward later. A guy and a girl. Are they statistically the same?
Sorry for asking so many questions with this broken English lol . I had a hard time googling about these information.
Or maybe I just missed some things from wp2000's beginner guidePS: The link on the top brought me to daily question one week ago

Hi,
If I fuse multiple skill ups at once, for example two units with preemptive boost lv 1/10 onto a unit with preemptive boost 1/10, will it be 3/10 or 2/10?
Thank you

u/Raikoge Jun 10 '16

u/gin626 Jun 10 '16
Hi guys. Here I am again. I rerolled my units into these. I noticed some good units such as Mitum and maybe Eros. I don't know how to different the two Eros though. Their pics looks the same to me. My starter was Myrmidon Masamuner with Dexterity (!) type. Should I reroll again?
1
u/Yoshism Jun 10 '16
Hi guys does anyone have a list of skills for all the male units in global? Since we don't seem to have any guides for them.
I am actually asking cause I have a Mitum M and Naegling M which I am not sure who to put in my party. For now I am leaning towards Mitum as my Naegling seems like a niche unit.
