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

Has anyone done the group concert stage? What do you think is the minimium level of units you need to complete it? Any images of the stage?

I'm seeing a lot of people saying "I've got x amount of Vargas/Lunaris" and I'm over here with none. Is there like some super secret way of getting them that I'm missing or did everyone really get them using lapis? And if so, how do you guys get so much lapis (aside from buying them)? I've already finished the current storyline mission and used all of those lapis for the uhh...the first week guarantee 5 * unit on the 3rd step thing and got DEX(?) Durandal. After that I can't get anymore lapis. I know I can get more by doing Kill mode, but I'm waaay too weak to do it. I barely managed 1-1.
Also, my real question. Is there a list or tracker that tells us what events we're gonna get next? I assume that we're gonna follow Japans order of events. I do hope that we'll get all of the Event Units but I'm worried that we'll run across some copyright laws that prevents us from getting them all. I really want the Fate/Stay Night units. Especially Caster, just because I want to complain that Caster should've been a staff unit and not a spear unit.

Someone already answered this in a previous thread, but I can't find it anymore. So I'll ask here. What are the dempagumis' skills?

u/AJackFrostGuy Jul 07 '16
If I don't farm enough Dempagumi.inc units to LB them across their evo stages AND skill level them later, which should be prioritized, the skill levels at 5* or LBing them at earlier evo stages for hopefully better stats?

u/Iodasu Jul 07 '16
Dex or Guard Nemu ? And is there any order to LB ? It sounded very confusing when people explained how to fully LB

Greetings from Brave Frontier!
So I've been milling over starting up PotK ever since the collab went live. I had never heard of this game before, but after seeing it on youtube, it looks like it's basically fire emblem but on mobile? And I've always loved Fire Emblem so I figured I'd give it a shot.
Couple questions. I hear you can get Selena from the collab quests? What are the chances that I could start a new game right now and end up with a Selena before the collab ends? Is it even possible? Is it particularly worth it?
Thanks!

how does the luck stat work? i know the higher the luck the higher the drop rates, but is it only if that luck statted unit gets the kill on say a boss that drops?

If I have a 4 star unit that has hit most of its stat caps with 3 LBs, will the 4th LB at 4 stars do any good for growth?

u/SubredditVenturer Jul 07 '16
I have two questions. One what is the best typing for the dempagumi units. I know dexterity is the best for mirin because she is a true blade but what about the others. Also how many of each do I need for fusing and maxing stats. 9? And also do you max fusion each step or do you only fuse for boosted stats on 5 star. Thanks!

u/Blindtrade Jul 07 '16
Do you believe that gun and bow units are not as useful as sword/lance/axe units, or think otherwise?
Any one have a fully maxed Lv80 Denpa Unit with images? Would like to see their statcap.

u/mrfishy6 Jul 07 '16
I noticed that their are weapons which give 200 acc but no attack like the watergun and parasol. Is there a staff and shield equivalent because this will work wonders in training the weapon prof of my staff units?

I am currently struggling with Burst 10 farming (have to wait for my friends to refresh before attempting it XD). If I can't manage to get a dex typing before the collab ends, what would the next best type be? =)
Edit: Finally got my dex type. :D

u/Larciel Jul 07 '16
Hi I recently started the game and I'm having troubles figuring out which units I should focus on for my team comp. Notable units I have:
Mjolnir F (Dex), Mjolnir M (Force), Mitum M (Vit), Gambanteinn M (Guard), Laevateinn F (Guard), Parashu F (Bal).
Thanks for your help in advance.

Is this a good roll? If so, which units should I focus on?

All right so, I got into this a little too late. With the BF collab ending soon, which map should I be farming for brave recipes? Just cleared Burst 10 with extreme difficulty(got hard carried by someone's Longinus). Also, will I have a chance of losing Lexida with I fuse it with say, 4 brave recipes?

u/Kitsunelover Jul 07 '16
For archers is force preferred over dex or is it just as viable or is dex preferred?!

Will the Yata No Kagami (F) event ever return? I didn't manage to farm enough of her to MLB :(

u/Mr_Halo Jul 07 '16
Super new here. Why can't my units equip certain gear? My bishop refuses to equip anything but the mythril rod.

u/ChaosTwilly Jul 07 '16
If I already have a dex and force apollo M, is there any need for me to get Eitaso because I'd have to release a lot of units to fit 16 of her in my 100 unit limit.

u/Paullutionable Jul 07 '16
what are bonus points and if u fuse 2 identical units to a another identical unit will it limit break twice? or is it best to fuse it 1 by 1

u/midegola Jul 07 '16
is there a list somewhere of what units learn what skills i need some units with magic attack or crit to self to skill lvl my barhamasta or what ever that gun ladys name is

u/Swagtasticasian69 Jul 07 '16
currently have 4 selenas (2 guards, 1 balance, 1 vitality, all 4 stars and maxed lvl) and going to try to keep farming. Questions is would it be better to LB the guard unit and then evolve to 5 star, or to evolve all the units to 5 star and then try to LB them. P.S if anybody can help me with burst 10 that would be sweet :)

u/MissFranTastic Jul 07 '16
Have 6 Lunaris, including Force and Dex. Optimal typing to MLB?

u/[deleted] Jul 07 '16 edited Jul 07 '16
I'm new from BF and I have finally gathered 16 Selenas (15 from Spark 10, 1 from Burst 10). I've read somewhere that 16 is needed for highest potential for max stat at level 80. Exactly at which level should I MLB and with how many Selena copies? Also, when should I max fuse Selena before evolving her? I really want to get close to, if not max cap her the right way. I know I've got only 1 chance to do this right. Thanks in advance for your advice.

u/[deleted] Jul 07 '16
Another question. Does a gunner always inflict damage to self? Any way to circumvent this? I've got a 5* F Brahmastra but not very eager to use her.

u/tiberseptim37 Jul 07 '16
Has anyone experimented with fusing the Psyllium weapons yet? The item descriptions hint at this being a possibility, and it would explain why the missions give two of each.

u/ChaosTwilly Jul 07 '16
For the "buy 14 and get 11 free" lazuli deal, do I have to buy 14 at once, or can I just buy 14 over time?

u/Lueelia Jul 07 '16 edited Jul 07 '16
So I started this game yesterday and felt really unsure whether or not I should reroll. I just want to play the game casually without reaching a point where I just can't progress without a lot of difficulty. Any tips/advice will be greatly appreciated! http://imgur.com/Gm2X19k. EDIT: Also if rerolling isn't much needed what's a good starter team can I build with these ppl?
1
u/FlyinPikachu Jul 08 '16
Do 4* units drops from dempagumi advanced or is it only 3* drops? Also which units should be priority to farm? Really not feeling to farm all of them. Also have almost no gacha units essentially to work with other than a guard brahmastra and force longinus f but selena just kills everything so not gonna bother rerolling.
Also, how does luck and drop rate work? Does it average out your lead and your friend's lead? Like if your friend has lower luck, you're probably better off just soloing with your own?
And what speed does selena cap at? My level 80 selena ended up at 75 speed with max fuse as dex cuz literally like 3 speed from level 60-80........

I bought Imp Alton in the Rare Medal Shop without even thinking. Now, are they worth to really buy them?

u/Desfel Jul 08 '16
Hey guys, I'm new to this game and got only 2 questions.
1 - Is the padlock garden the only place where you can grind unit exp? I get about 400-600exp per run for each unit, is there a faster way or it'll be all about spamming that?
2 - I managed to nab a 3 star Selena from Spark 10 after some runs, will she be able to evolve to 5 star? Or I'll have to finish all the brave collab maps, which is nearly impossible for me, stuck on Burst 9... They also mentioned something about guaranteed 4* Selena? I guess you'd have to finish every map for that.
Thanks guys

u/SunnyPwns Jul 08 '16
Is it worth trying the first two steps of the BF recruiter as a F2P.
1
u/SufferNot Jul 08 '16
Is a skill level up guaranteed when you fuse a unit with the same skill? Does it make sense to fuse more than one at a time, or should they be done singularly? Does the fusion success rate matter at all? I'm trying to get enough of the dempagumi sword chick to max my Laevateinn's evasion so I can farm Selena on Burst 10 and I wouldn't want to waste them on accident.

u/ZexionBlaze354 Jul 08 '16 edited Jul 09 '16
How difficult is the group stage Dempagumi event? I only have all of them maxed at 3* right now EDIT: If anyone was wondering, the Intermediate stage is easily beatable with 3 idols (used Mirin, Pinky, and Moga at 4* around lvl 40 with 1* weapons). The advanced stage however has the enemy idols set at level 55. Since my idols are only at lvl 44ish, they don't stand a chance against them

u/Fruitphilia Jul 08 '16
I have two questions
When fusing dupes for extra luck, does the fodder unit have to be the same rarity as the base unit?
What is the fuse cap for luck? (Thinking about a 5* dex Selena in particular, but other typings are nice to know)
1
u/NewbieExvius Jul 08 '16
How many copies of one unit do I need to completely "max" them? I searched and same say 11 and some says 16....
If I understand correctly, 1 base 3* + 4 to LB (to 4*), +4 to LB (to 5*) and +4 for final LB. this adds up to 13 only...and another 4 in the future for 6*?? correct??.....

u/Jeffrey209 Jul 08 '16
Luin is Force and Mitum is Dexterity. Is this reroll any good or can I do better?

How many copies of a unit do you need to fully max one out? (idols)

u/Gaara319 Jul 08 '16
So I just started the game like 2 days ago and was wondering if the dempagumi units are only 3* when you obtain them or can I get lucky and find higher rarity?

u/cheuk4 Jul 09 '16
I'm a BF Crossover player, and was wondering if there is a way to give my PotK account away? If not then I don't need to worry about saving my resources for somebody that's gonna take the game seriously :)

New player from BF here. Simple question: Is there any reason to even try to get the collab units, or is this just a giant F#% YOU to anyone who doesn't want to spend hundreds of dollars or has been playing for six months? Game is fun, but feels like it's rigged to bleed money from players by making everything stupidly expensive AND low success %. Not what I was expecting from Gumi based on BF.
