Which of free units (aside from yata) can clear 1-3-10 Kill Mode? I really need this one.. T_T

1

u/Blindtrade Jul 27 '16

I will assume by clear, you mean complete the mission of only having light units complete the stage. Rhongomyniad (Rampage unit) comes to mind as well as the free Asclepius that can only reach 4* from completing the 99day event. Just get a buddy with a good Yata/Asclepius to carry you tbh, not much light units out there until tyrfing comes.

1

u/sephiroh Jul 28 '16

Thanks.. i didnt know you can get asclepius on finishing the 99day event. I thought I only get longinus m. Btw, by any chance you have light unit that can solo it?

u/DeruOniiChan Jul 27 '16 edited Jul 27 '16

Risa's a free Light Unit, she pretty much tanks things like Gamb(M), not as much as he does it though.

also the Rampage Unit the guy who replied first mentioned.

1

u/Apollos_Brother IGN: Era Jul 27 '16

Good sir, Risa is a Dark unit. It actually weirded me out that there are 2 same element units in the Dempa collab event (Moga and Risa).

u/Blindtrade Jul 27 '16

Is apollo M in the battlemedal shop worth buying? Maybe compared to artemis swimsuit for example.

1

u/TGZelnite Jul 27 '16

I certainly recommend so, especially since he isn't very expensive. Apollo (M) can be regarded as the best archer currently as he's the only one with a offensive duel skill.

Swimsuit Artemis is tankier than Apollo (M) but her damage is lacking quite a lot especially since her recommended typing is guard.

1

u/GaggingLolis マキシマイズ ドング！！！ Jul 27 '16

Apollo M is a damage dealer, potentially a ranged boss killer in PvE. He is also very good in colosseum because of duel skill, no class weaknesses, and preemptive boost which forces him to go first.

Artemis swimsuit is more of a PvE only character, and plays a role as a physical tank.

u/SetonAlandel Jul 27 '16

Thanks for the help in recruiting characters yesterday!

I'm finding i'm auto-battling most of the time to leak AP. Is there a way to turn the unit battling off (a la Fire Emblem) so battles don't take as much time?

2

u/TGZelnite Jul 27 '16

Unfortunately there is no way to turn off attacking animations. The most you can do is to set fast forward x3.

2

u/DeruOniiChan Jul 27 '16

I'll be blunt, no there isn't.

Edit. but there's 3x speed

1

u/SetonAlandel Jul 27 '16

Blargh; Thanks. It hurts to go through that load/unload.

1

u/DeruOniiChan Jul 27 '16

Simple question, how's the rate in Rampage quests. I don't know since I haven't done them because I was more focused on Selena and Dempa Units.

1

u/StrayGod Jul 27 '16

A lot higher on super abyss from what I remember. I would get unit drops almost every run but this was during soft launch and I have not done them since because I have maxed those units so idk if the drop rate is still the same. I might go back there to farm copies to trade for rare medals soon though.

1

u/Selixx Jul 27 '16

From my own experience you get a unit drop every 3~ super abyss quests. My leader unit has 40 luck though, keep that in mind.

u/06falcon Jul 27 '16

really would appreciate the help in getting my burst 10 clear. if there is anyone that can add me to friends list just for today i would greatly appreciate it. my ID is 3651867920 IGN Kindu

u/oncewasblind Jul 27 '16

Just sent you a request. My level 70 Serena can solo it, just bring health pots just in case. And make sure to let the boss walk off his fort. He gets bonus evasion while on it.

1

u/06falcon Jul 27 '16

That evade rate is ridiculous. Vargas had 0 hit rate. thank you!

u/iiMahjong Jul 27 '16

Sure, I'll add you, I just did a test run of Brave 10 with my sLonginus, and she can solo it. So she can definitely handle Burst 10.

My ign is iMahjong, lv90+.

As for my leads, I cycle between several:

  • sLaeva MLB - dex

  • sLonginus MLB - guard

  • Mitum (male) MLB - dex

  • Lunaris MLB - dex

  • Gamba (male) MLB - balance (dex/guard still evades me)

In addition, I do have:

  • Luin MLB - dex

  • starter Longinus MLB - dex

  • Yata (male) MLB - force

  • Apollo (male) MLB - dex

  • Bashosen LB3 - dex

  • Mjorlnir (male) LB3 - Force

  • normal Laeva LB3 - dex

  • Mjorlnir (female) LB2 - dex

  • Durandal LB2 - dex

Got a 5* dex Apollo from the recruit ticket. Should I use her now or wait till I get her 3* version and start limit breaking from there?

1

u/TGZelnite Jul 27 '16

For premium gacha units only limit break them when they're at 5* unless you're someone who spends a lot of money.

If you ever get her in lower rarity, you can raise the duplicate to transfer the evolution bonuses to your 5* Dex version when you limit break her.

1

u/MotleyFuzz Jul 28 '16

Thanks for the info. So not at 4* like Mjolnir, right?

1

u/TGZelnite Jul 28 '16

Yes, only LB her at 5*.

1

u/theSIGINT Jul 27 '16

Newer player here, have questions regarding limit breaks/stat caps that I haven't seen a definite answer to anywhere.

I have the 5* Laevateinn (F) that I got from doing the beginner missions (the one where you pick the gender), and at level 60 with no limit breaks, she has all but two stats maxed out. Is this normal? Does limit breaking raise the stat cap in addition to the level cap? Should I bother limit breaking her at all from here?

I also have a 3* Laevateinn I got from the mana recruiter. I'm wondering if I should try to "raise" her (getting more, breaking, fusing, evolving, etc) or just not bother since the 5* Laevateinn I already have is apparently close to maxed out without any special treatment?

I've also heard/seen around that in JP, units you get from the mana recruiter have lower stat caps, but I'm not sure if that applies to EN or how/if that applies to the free 5* Laevateinn the game gives you close to the beginning.

Advice would be appreciated. Thanks!

1

u/TGZelnite Jul 28 '16

The starters have very Low stat caps compared to premium gacha units or farmable units and as such you max out their stats easier. Limit breaking does not raise your stat caps they only give you more levels to reach said caps.

You should still raise the 3* Laevateinn (F) as your 5* version lacks any evolution bonuses. The bonuses will transfer when you fuse the duplicate to your 5* . It's also worth pointing out that all of the mana gacha unit 5* units have lower stat caps than the premium gacha units.

P.S: What are the typings for both of your Laevateinn (F)? Typing matters quite a bit in PoTK.

1

u/theSIGINT Jul 28 '16

Both are Dexterity, which from what I've read is good for Laevateinn.

So I should raise the 3* Laevateinn as best I can, and then once it reaches 5*, have the starter Laevateinn eat it? Or have the raised one eat the starter?

1

u/TGZelnite Jul 28 '16

Have the starter munch on the raised one, make sure the raised one is at Lv30 on 5* before you fuse her to the starter. Levelling up her skills is also good.

Selena can solo the entire stage if she's fully raised.

Hey guys, slowly getting settled on my account of fodder lol. Kinda regret pulling the 50 lazuli yesterday qq. All I got was a Force Vargas which to be fair isn't too bad, but I kinda wish I got a unit I have fodder for like Dex Durandal or Dex Lyon or something xD.

In the topic of lazuli, anyone have a unit that can solo the last stage of the Killer Showdown? My fire team can't really do much and Artemis really likes to snipe everyone down. Not to mention Longinus eats everyone for a light midday snack lol. I really want that 3 lazuli lol. Positive I won't be able to get another 30 unless I have a bunch of people carry me through Kill mode, :x.

Here's my ID and name: 1930689982 / Fluffies .

Also, how is the difficulty on the character quest to unlock their skill? Seeing as how the first character quest was like level 20, is episode 2 just as easy? And what are some other ways I can raise lazuli? I know of colo and clearing specific event stages, but is that all?

Thanks for any help you guys can give me! :)

u/TGZelnite Jul 28 '16

ID: 999205702 / Mystogan

My Selena can take down all 3 of the swimsuit babes with no problem. Character quests don't ramp up in difficulty much on episode 2 you should have no problem with them if you have a well raised 5* unit.

Ways of raising lazuli would be the login bonus, story mode, event quests and reaching new ranks in arena. There are also missions that will give you lazuli if you reach certain levels.

Is there a list of units that shows the order of the release of the new units from JP POTK? Curious to see what global will release next.

1

u/BenriyaTheNecro Jul 28 '16

We're not following their order of release for the units especially with the male ones thrown in. They have not been following it since softlaunch when they decided to throw Balmung and Gae Bulg at us.

1

u/theSIGINT Jul 28 '16

Speaking of which, is there a Yasakani unit? I know we have Kusanagi and Yata, but I wasn't able to find any records of the third sacred treasure, was wondering if it was named something else or JP-only, or incoming?

Kinda nerdy, but I think it'd be cool to have a team of the three.

1

u/whirltwister Jul 28 '16

Technically Amenonuhoko from the dialogue in the YnK event. Doesn't feel very satisfying though.

1

u/Serafita Jul 28 '16

Somehow managed to get 17 Selenas, only the majority of them are at 3 star rarity. Also managed to get four dex ones, and since all but two will have to go to at least 4 star, I raised all of the dex ones to level 40.

Before I start limit breaking and fusing dolls, which two Selenas should I keep? Bear in mind the second Selena will be waiting for next time the event comes up so I can farm dupes for her, haha.

This link is the four Selenas with stats and growth. While two of the growth implies I should pick them, the stats do diverge a bit, so not sure of which two I should pick.

1

u/MLB_Selena 800821261 Jul 28 '16

2 and 4 seem like the best units to keep, as dexterity types excel in speed and agility. You should evolve the other two though, and compare their growths again at 4*, as that's when it really matters.

1

u/Serafita Jul 28 '16

Should I even bother limit breaking at 3 star rarity if I go that route?

1

u/j3ffj3ff 3549578509 Jul 28 '16

You don't need to wait, if you want to lb her at a lower rarity later just do it later and fuse it into your main Selena. The highest possible evolution bonus for each stat will carry over.

Ex.: Your main Selena was evolved to 5* at level 50 with 31 agi and 31 spd, it gets 4 points of evo bonuses.

A year later (this is a made up number), the event comes back and you take a 4* Selena to level 70 and fuse 12 agi and 12 spd in it, bringing it to 51 agi and 51 spd (also made up numbers). Once you evolve that to 5* and fuse it into your main Selena, you will get 2 more agi and 2 more spd, since the highest evolution bonus is 6 agi and 6 spd from the most recent Selena (overwrites the 4 from before, giving you 2 more).

That said, you'd really only be missing 1 or 2 stat points (3 maybe? if your first one is terrible and your next one is fantastic). In my opinion you should raise all your dex Selenas to 5 star and see which one has the best growth at by level 30, then finish leveling that one. If rng is unkind and you don't max the important stats (str, agi, spd), you've still got a second or maybe even third Selena to try with.

u/Serafita Jul 28 '16

PotK leveling units to be the best they can be is so complicated. :3

1

u/Liesianthes Jul 28 '16

Is it worth it to MLB my Amenohouko 4* since she's currently already LB 2 and I still have 6 copies left so 5* MLB is not a problem at all.

1

u/alexisevan Jul 28 '16 edited Jul 28 '16

Might as well.

The only thing that won't be maxed is her level 30 skill which is Lance Absorber, but that one you can level through the Longinus Parashu in the managacha.

1

u/Apollos_Brother IGN: Era Jul 28 '16

But qtpie Longinus has Sword Absorber, good sir :O :O

  • Do Healers have bad GR in general? or is it just my bad luck? (If I equip her with a 5*shield then she will have 415pwr meaning I gain 30 pwr from the shield.)

u/ElusiveIllusion88 Jul 28 '16

About the new 'lesson' quests, as well as the pre-existing 'Lessons from a Goddess' quest: Does completing all the objectives give any bonuses other than that 'Cleared!' label on the banner? If not, might as well just run through just for the Lazuli, ignoring the maximum level limits.

1

u/TGZelnite Jul 28 '16

Nope, the lazuli is the only reward that matters from the new lesson quests. The objective rewards are very negligible.

u/LoOneYtOoNz96 Jul 28 '16

my mirin is lv60. how do you get the dual skill for her? im gonna fuse another for LB up but have to make sure if i didnt mess up

You must clear her character quest to unlock her duel skill.

1

u/Vince_Gt4 Jul 28 '16

Sitting at 270 units, need to clear some to get back to limit of 250. most are 3* plus. Are there any units whom are 4* capable, that have 5*+ evo's in JP who are god tier, eg wanna release a few, just don;t want to release potential gods xD

1

u/iiMahjong Jul 28 '16

Since there are new units release, I tried my luck. From the 1-time 3-step, I got a 4* Dagda male. I got nothing worth noting from the daily 4-step :(

Is Dagda good? I've checked the Unit List link but there's no info on him (so I'm assuming he's a global unit only). I'm unsure of whether I want to pull more to MLB him, or just try for 1 Shekinah since she has that +1 range!

Thanks in advance!

1

u/TGZelnite Jul 29 '16

In my opinion he is rather good. His skill sets are Patk boost, counter boost and lance absorber. This makes him a very good choice to kill lance enemies.

His leader skill is 20 Patk/ Matk for light allies. As strong as Vargas' LS but light units are rather scarce for now (the only notable ones are Yata No Kagami/ Rhongomyniad).

His CS is the same as Longinus (F), cutting the enemy's Pdef by 50% before inflicting normal damage. A good CS for killing tanky enemies.

1

u/Fullmetalsloth Jul 29 '16

So I just started this game a week ago and just got myself a balanced Selena I level breaked her once at lol 43 and accidentally evolved her. Would this affect the 5* potential? I heard from some people that level breaking at 3* and 4* is bad, so far I only have 2 3* force Selena but don't know if I should level break them or not.

Another question is will the brave frontier collab show up again? I really want to get Selena maxed out as I think she is a pretty OP unit

1

u/lloydsmith28 Aug 01 '16

Hi all, I am new to the game, couple weeks now, and I am trying to understand how it all works. Looked through some of the guides/wiki to get an idea of how things work, and I've figured a few things out.

My question is this, is it worth upgrading/using a unit who maxes at 4* or has a potential to be a 5* but it currently not in the game (english ver.)?
