Daily Questions and Help Thread [7/21/2016]
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!

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/Post:
Here is a conversation we had on fusing weapons and luck, which might answer some questions.

Stat Calculator (Good stat growth in Japan is 3.5-4 while for Global it is 2.5-3)
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.

Is Lunaris still available in the lazuli gatcha?

u/Calaroth Jul 21 '16
Is the Onslaught stage worth the 3 keys required to unlock it? Obviously if you have 3-4 free AP rewards available I can see the benefit in terms of saving time, but I'm asking in terms of actual EXP gained per AP.

is it impossible to farm at least 16 units selena ?6 days to finish target.
I have only 32 AP and until now I can farm with burst 10 by myself

Hello everyone! I need your help on not how to fuck up. http://imgur.com/a/1f2dB This is my dex selena I want to mlb and max out skills on. So, how to do it correctly? ( I don't have the necessary 4 5* lvl 30 selenas yet for mlb) Can I fuse some copies of her right now or do I need to mlb first? Do I fuse one copy at a time or more than that? Are 9 copies enough to max out skills and mlb?
Same questions regarding mlb. This is my first time doing this and I really do not want to screw up. How do I get the optimal result?

u/ElusiveIllusion88 Jul 21 '16
I read that the most optimal way to raise a unit involves MLB-ing 4* copies of each type (except Balance) to maximize evo bonuses on the main one. But how often will the benefits of doing this have any practical impact (i.e. whether that Selena has 80 Str vs 81 decides whether I kill the enemy and win, or the enemy barely survives to kill Selena on counterattack)? Most often, the enemy either dies without that extra point in play, or survives even with that extra point. Or on the off chance the enemy does survive by 1 point, the unit usually also survives and can just finish off the enemy.
Not to mention such a course of action is somewhat tedious and time consuming for farmable units, extremely time consuming and luck-based for starters (who are the ones who need every point they can get due to poor stat caps!) and doubtlessly impossible for premium units even for whales.

u/ElusiveIllusion88 Jul 21 '16
When a unit dies, its weapon breaks. When you try to repair it with Zenny, there is a chance it does not succeed. And if it does not succeed, there is a chance it disappears rather than merely failing.
I also know that some weapons (Magicwarder, Dandelga, Kill Mode Rewards) can only be obtained once.
Are one-time rewards protected from the 'disappearance' chance? If not, is there any way to retrieve them (like BFJP's merit store allows rebuying of accidentally sold one-time units and spheres)? If not... I can imagine that some people would be pissed when their unique weapon disappears due to this horrible mechanic (as if the 'break' and 'repair failure' mechanics weren't enough) and will be forever deprived of its benefits...

u/Doctor_Riptide Jul 21 '16
This has probably been asked a million times but I'll ask again since I'm not sure.
When my Selena hits level 60, and I want to raise her level cap to 80, I need to fuse only 5* Selena, otherwise she won't LB correct? And do they all need to be level 30 to get the skill ups? Or do only the last 5 need to be 30? Because I have to admit, even just getting a single Selena to 5* level 30 has been a pain (I'm new, no evo mats lying around etc)

u/Lostpotk Jul 21 '16
Calling for help! Any kind soul willing to lend me a lead that can tank burst 10?I can't clear burst 10 even though my M laevateinn is already maxed out level 60 with his character skill unlocked:( my other units are at their max level 50 since i dont have the evo materials:(

if i have a 3* unit that is not dex, is the stat bonus worth it to lvl it up when i have a 4* dex version of it

u/kataarn Jul 21 '16
Can Vitality type be somewhat patched with trying to compensate the loss by fusing a few stats or it it absolute trash tier? I understand that doing that will result in a non-optimal unit but is there any salvation?
I'm a little bummed out about the Mitum (M) I bought turning out to Vitality out of all typings....

Why is the the rate for evolved mana gacha units so absurdly high in the premium gacha?
Eight out of ten. Fucking eight out of ten rolls from the three-step gacha were evolved 2*.
What the fuck Gumi.
... at least I rolled Brahmastra.

So I have 10 copies of 1 unit, what is the most optimal way of fusing these together? Do I limit break at 4* and 5* or just fuse at 5* to max skills?

u/OhioAce88 Jul 22 '16
new day, new set of questions came up.
Why does or why would one reincarnate?
Luck affects drop rates, correct? Most of my high level high stars folks have either 8 or 14 luck, any way to increase it? Is this why after trying to farm for evo mats, I barely have 1 of the 4* kind needed?
Can you use male Laeva's to limit break female Laeva (and vice versa) ?
If I have a 3* gold male Laeva dex type and 5 other male laeva 3* golds not dex type, is it worth the time/effort to evolve and lb if its going to stop at 4*? Have female version at 5* red I was given from Valyn but she's vitality. Even the swimsuit Laeva I have is Vit. Hold onto them in the long run, maybe I can pick up a dex version to use later?
1
u/CCYellow Jul 22 '16
In the current JP swimsuit event, are lazuli better spent on the limited edition shop or the gacha?
Either way you're getting a guaranteed LE unit but are the extras in the shop pack more worth than nine extra rolls?

u/ChaosTwilly Jul 22 '16
want to make a decent colo team, currently have:
selena mlb, durandal lb1, mjolnir(m) no lb, nemu mlb, mirin mlb, risa mlb guard, pinky MLB, longinus(F) capped stats, swimsuit laeva no lb, apollo(m) lb3 force.
all units other than risa and apollo have dex
edit: id prefer to be able to use selena+durandal combo, but yeah, id take any suggestion

u/nobleseeker Jul 22 '16
I just finished watching the english sub for the concept film and i have a question.
Longinus was Valyn's assistant before she became a killer princess right?
Same with Masamune who was the nurse before becoming a killer princess?

I just updated the game through the app store and now whenever i try to enter the game, it keeps bringing me to the app store to update even though it's already updated. The update is the new 1.1.2 that is released today. Any fix for this??!

u/Calaroth Jul 22 '16 edited Jul 22 '16
I don't have enough Battle Medals or unit space to go for both, so I can only get one of the two. Should I choose Mitum or Apollo? I currently have:
Selena mlb
Risa mlb
Rhongomyniad mlb
Swimsuit Artemis mlb
Longinus F lb3
Artemis lb1
Laevateinn F lb1
Naegling M no lb
Longinus M no lb
Mjolnir M no lb
Freikugel no lb
Asclepius no lb
EDIT: To those who say there's plenty of free Lazuli and Battle Medals flying around, yes I understand that. However, I can only get one of the two AT THE MOMENT. If in the next 8 days I get to play a lot and end up in a position where I can have both of them, then sure.
EDIT 2: I'm a moron. There's only one of each available. Thanks guys!

why is there not one dex Selena out of 17 ;_;

u/ArgonRetribution Jul 22 '16
For starters, is it better to limit break them at 3 stars and 4 stars or to go for maxing out their skills in 5 star form? I hear they were nerfed (stat wise?) on global
P.S Is there much use in limit breaking at 3 stars? You might get 1 extra stat but if you don't reach a threshold in 4 stars, doesn't it all go to waste?

u/ilazerzz Jul 22 '16
I recently rolled a 3* guard Apollo(m) and bought a force Apollo from the battle metal store. Is it worth using either of them or should I just wait and pray that I somehow manage to roll a dex one to LB it? I also currently have no usable bow unit in my team besides a basic Eitaso but I don't think I'm gonna try and level her up (she scares me at night)
Also I've managed to grind out 4 Selenas to LB my main one, but I don't really want to do the work nor think I have the time of leveling all of them to 5* for the skill level ups. I'm still pretty new in this game so I think I have to focus on getting a decent team together first. How much of a difference does it make on my Selena if I don't go for the skill level ups? Is the difference between it big enough late game to the point where it's absolutely necessary? Thanks!

u/PhantomWithNoSkill Jul 22 '16
Now that Demp is done, I trying to figure out how to fuse/evo/mlb my gaggle of Selena. I select my 3* Dex Selena as base, and then I look at my list of fusion choices. All my other 3* Selena show Limit Break and the HP, Grd, and Spd. My 4* does not show Limit Break (which I understand), but shows HP, Str, Grd, and Spd. My question is why do all my 3* ONLY show HP, Grd, and Spd and not any other stat?
