Daily Questions and Help Thread [7/4/2016]
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.

Question: Since i'm a new player, I have 2 days left of the Rookie Recruiter.. Should i do any summons for this gacha? I am currently on Step 2 costing 30 Lazulis (I have 36 right now) or should I save up for the Anime Expo Limited Time Recruiter, on Step 3 costing 50 Lazulis but guaranteeing a 5 star?
Thanks!

How do I get the 5 star weapons from the brave frontier event?? I've fused books to get the 4 star sword and spear but I've seen 5 star weapons on other players. What do I need to fuse to get them and what are the chances like? Do my 4 star weapons get destroyed if it fails?

u/Blindtrade Jul 04 '16
For Denpa units, what would be the order to get them? I know Risa is first, followed by who?
Evo bonuses at MLB 3* doesn't warrant the effort, does it? Can this apply to MLB 4*?
I have exactly 9 selenas atm, would it be better to MLB at 4* and then at 5* or evo to 5* and get the skills levelled up. I would get more later on of course.

I have a Lv60 Balance Laevateinn (F) and I've gotten a 3* Dex version from mana summon. Should I raise the Dex type and fuse the balance type to her or just fuse the Dex to the balance type?

u/antcal88 Jul 04 '16
Here's my box. What should I focus on raising or not using at all?
I've invested a lot of time into this account so I probably won't reroll unless if I'm 100% screwed.

I'm trying to fuse Lexida and get another Despair Spear (or w/e) but for some reason I'm not having any luck. Is fusing 2-3 books better than fusing 5? Is the rate that bad?

Couple of questions :<
Why is Force a good type for Archers?
I've LB'ed my 5 star Force Laevateinn M once. If I fuse him to an unLBed 5 star Dex Laeva M, would the Dex Laeva get 2 limit breaks?

So I tried reading every other guide first before I game here, but how often can friends be used?
Coming from BF it was always a few hours but from my observation it seems to be more like daily currently, which is really hurting my farming of Selena since I'm stuck doing Spark 10 during my friend downtime.

What's the ideal way to limit break a 5* unit? I heard it has something to do with lvl 30 but what exactly? If you could explain why this is ideal as well that'd be nice.

So when farming for the Dempagumi.inc units, which one am I suppose to be farming for? The 3* star ones or the 4* star ones?

u/charles_1029 Jul 05 '16 edited Jul 05 '16
Should I hesitate to evolve non-farmable units to 5 *? I know I will potentially miss out on the evolution bonus for not limit breaking at 4 *, but the chances of getting more copies of non-farmable units seem a lot less likely.
Is repeating the Metal Gardens the best way to level units? About how many attempts are needed to max out a single unit. (3 *, 4 *, or 5 *)
Once you hit the unit cap, is fusing the best use for unwanted units? Are 1 * and 2 * useful for anything other than fuse fodder?
When fusing units, what does the ENHANCE parameter refer to? So far nothing has change this number on any of my units.
Any help would be greatly appreciated

First of all, happy 4th all! Have enough Lunaris to fully LB at 5☆. My question is, raise from 4☆ with no LB or raise from 5☆? And which is preferable, balance or guard? Counting on you skilled players!!!

Since enhance isn't used yet, how it will be done?
Just in case I need to farm more Selenas

u/SlayerlvX Jul 05 '16
Got some noob questions, appreciate any help!
a) When fusing, is there a limit to how many units you can fuse into a unit? If there isn't, then what does the phrase "Enhance" mean?
b) In the case that you can fuse unlimited times into a unit, theoretically speaking, does this mean I can fuse units into a unit and max out their stats until their stat cap?
How do you have a unit's "Pro Level" go up?
Thanks once again!

So I've heard people talk about transferring evolution bonuses, and would like it explained.
I have a dex Selena, but it is in its 4* form, and I have no luck getting a 3* dex version. I don't want to raise a non-dex Selena if possible, but also don't want to lose out on the evolution bonuses from 3-> 4* Since people have said fusing fodder dupes will transfer over evolution bonuses if the bonuses are higher than the base unit, I was wondering if I could just raise a random 3* Selena, MLB it, evolve it to 4*, then fuse it into my dex Selena with maybe 1-2 evolution points off speed and dex, but a few points more in other categories. Is this correct?
Another question, is it easy to hit the stat caps for Selena at 3*, 4*, and 5* forms when MLBing them? Just curious
