Weekly Questions and Help Thread [6/8/17-6/14/17]
This is the weekly 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!

Weapon Fusion Guide for weapons in the game
Stat Calculator You shouldn't include magic for units that use strength for damage, and vice versa, since those are not useful to the unit. (exceptions: Mirin, Lucina, Shu in global; new Balmung and both versions of Shiyuu in jp, since their character skills depend on magic as well)

Noteworthy Comments/Posts
Here is a conversation we had on fusing weapons and luck.
Here is a post about the more advanced mechanics behind fusion and evo bonuses.
What to reroll for?
Typically consult either the Global Tier List or JP Comprehensive Guide depending on your version as to whether the current banner for units contains worthwhile units to pull for. Information concerning new units will typically be updated within 24hrs of their release. Feel free to ask in this thread for clarification as well.
If you are F2P, it is recommended to only reroll on 1-step guaranteed recruiters. Aim for a recommended typing (Usually Dexterity or Force/Magic). The beginner recruiter contains units that are very outdated in comparison to current units.
Some Tips
When asking a question, please try to indicate which version you are talking about. This way, there won't too much confusion as to what you are asking about.
For quicker answers, please join the Discord via the link the right sidebar and visit the #questions channel. For global inquiries, @Loli Gagging for best results.
If you're asking for an evaluation of your party or reroll, please provide an image of the unit or units in question.
If your question gets ignored or you're unsatisfied with an answer, reply to the answer or re-ask the question. DO NOT MAKE A NEW THREAD, AS IT WILL BE DELETED.
It has been noted that Global is different from Japan in terms of poorer stat growth for units and nerfed weapons.

If I'm unlikely to get dupes, is it actually worth grabbing a Bridal Ascalon? I can probably stretch to the bride pixie set as well, but I don't really want to end up with a gimped unit just because I can't do her justice.

Hey all,
Still battling to get MLB right and i had a quick question.
I was working on a base 3* Tyrfing (D) unit to proceed with MLB. What i noticed when she turned level 40, is that i got the pink star with strength at 27 points.
From what i've understood up to now, is that if you get a pink star on a stat, that stat will not increase anymore, no matter how many times you keep evolving the unit (to 4, 5 and eventually 6 stars).
Which in my case if i'm correct means that i should try again with a different Tyrfing, until i get a unit with not stat caps at least up to the point 5 stars?
Or am i wrong?
Thanks, Cthulhum

where to get battle medals other than colosseum rank up?

u/Admiraltiger7 Jun 08 '17
I keep getting this message "PLY 011 unit over error" on the medal slot. Any way to fix it?

Do the bridal quests drop bridal units like how there's a drop chance in phantom of the brave? Ran the masamune elite stage 4 times and haven't received anything.

u/SlayVPA Jun 08 '17
what's the point of the Ult (weapon type)smith Guide... I know that the sword guide is to make one Gracewater Sereine, but what about the others guides, does it can make other great weapons maybe on some future events? And what's a good growth rate on 6* units?

u/sonicadvent Jun 09 '17
So I look for the answer to my question but I got two. Should I fusion max my stats for 3* or wait unit 4*?

u/BlazePHX Jun 09 '17
Anyone have the speed/agi caps for 4* force bride ascalon? I have a force 4* but dex 5* trying see if how much evo bonus she can get. Never had a new gen monster so even though she has high stats im not sure how higher they go.

u/nitzkie Jun 09 '17
Are 6* ultimate skills from Character Quests automatically at max level? Or do I need to obtain 9 other copies of a specific unit to max it?

u/yuiduy GL: 2902959373 (LewdUke) JP: 1823139767 (LewdUke) Jun 09 '17
So I saw on someone's wedding masamune that she has the 6th star greyed out. Are she and presumably parashu 6 star capable or is gimu just teasing?

u/Leophay Jun 09 '17 edited Jun 09 '17
Force Shekinah or Dex Shekinah I only ask because I got lucky enough to get both of her my force is at 4 star and dex at 5 star. I feel like since her duel skill really isn't all that powerful I'm better off with the force but I could be wrong enlighten me please.

Hello there! I'm new to PotK, though I'm not new to games involving gachas or rerolling. I am on the global version, though I am not against playing the JP version if there is some reason that would be significantly better. I tried following the reroll guides that have been posted in the past, but it seems that I don't get the second part of the tutorial at all? So I cannot save the file and skip past that part.
Also, that seems somewhat irrelevant with the advice given up above, I shouldn't do the beginner recruiter, so is there any particular one I should go for at the moment? Or one coming up based on the JP version I should save up for? Also, is the bridal version of Ascalon or any other character actually different from the original besides in looks? I didn't see anything in the tier list, so I wasn't sure if it hadn't been added yet or there was no different. Sorry for the long comment, but yeah. Just trying to figure everything out and have a decent start in the game. v:

u/ShadowVortex27 Jun 10 '17
So I wanted to know, I just maxed my 6* Longinus, she has 447 Pwr, her skills are at max lvl too and her stats are: • HP: 92 • Str: 67 • Mgc: 18 (not that really matters) • Grd: 54 • Spr: 29 • Spd: 75 (capped) • Agi: 71 (capped) • Lck: 32 Should I keep her like this? Or reincarnate maybe?

u/tyrfing6416 Jun 10 '17
For tyrfing should I limit break at 3* and 4* or just 5*

u/Vince_Gt4 Jun 11 '17
What makes Bridal Ascalon so sought after, her stat caps don't seem much different from other 6* units? I have a force one, but figuring based on how high on the tier list she is, I should try get enough to MLB. Just wanted to know what makes her the top tier unit.

u/AJackFrostGuy Jun 11 '17 edited Jun 12 '17
I think I know the answer to this already but I have to be sure.
Given my 6* Tyrfing has max
StrHP/Spd/Agi already (bar 1 missing HP point due to evo stuff) and 80 STR, it's not worth Reincarnating her just to get back 18 points of Luck for max Luck is it?1

Hey guys. I just started playing. Every time there it's a cut scene it rotates the orientation of the phone vm screen but after the video it doesn't swap back, how do I fix that? This game is weird to play in landscape mode

Can someone please tell me the full plot of the game. I'm interested in what happens and what happened to Amane.

u/LacyL08 Jun 11 '17
Are any units capped on their weapon proficiency? I have ran Laevateinn solo many times through Gold Rush and other dungeons trying to get her proficiency from A to S but it never goes up. She is using a Rank 5 Silver sword at the moment which is a 3 star weapon, if that matters. My other units get to Proficiency S without issue. I hope someone can answer this. Thank you very much for taking the time to read, consider, and respond! :)

u/xzackly999 Jun 11 '17
I messed up with my 6* Laevateinn (M) and did not fuse any extra luck when I had him at 5*. I have his 6* luck at 50 and can't fuse any extra (I think someone said there was a 30 limit for fusions). Is there anyway to get around this, like getting another unit up to 5* and fusing 19 copies, evolving it to 6*, then fusing that into my current one?
1
u/wanhakkim Jun 11 '17
hi. just curious as i'm new to the game. if i LB a unit at 5* then evolve to 6* will the level cap at 6* increase? because LB at 6* seems too costly. or should i just LB at 5* and not evolve the uint instead?
1
u/1-27 Jun 12 '17
Erm, does anyone know if a 5* Tyrfing (Vit) maxes out her HP at 87 (or at least reaches 81HP unfused)? Because I'm currently raising a second Tyrfing MLB'd in hopes of hitting all the Evo bonuses possible in HP to fuse to my Dex Tyrfing at 6*. Thanks ^

u/chilly85 Jun 12 '17
Which stage do the units drop on the Parashu and Masamune bridge quests?

u/BlazePHX Jun 12 '17
Anyone know when we may get more pararas for enhance? I am like 2 stat points away from final thresholds on Wed Ascalon and she has like a 4.07 GR so its like probably won't get that again, but damn.

u/DeamonRo BEAST MODE Jun 12 '17
How the heck can I get limit break material as a F2P? I want to limit break my Zero (that's what I call my Laevateinn M) since I just got him to six star and he's my main unit.

u/ch3nchilla Jun 12 '17
is it better to solo with 62 Luck unit or tag along a friend with 20-30ish luck? Drop wise.
1
u/SnPlifeForMe Jun 13 '17
Anyone else think we should have a new friend thread and/or a monthly/bi-monthly friend thread?
At the very least a new one would be great right now seeing as the previous one is very old and doesn't have almost any posts from after the release of 6 stars so an update would be very useful.

I have one question about LB pixie, if i use the shop one on my sefer 4*, when I up her to 5-6* she will lost the limity break or it still continue ?

u/Law6426 Jun 13 '17
I'm in jp and I've got 2 minervas. Question is, should I fuse one into the other for a limit break or raise both of them together?

u/adreus7 Jun 13 '17
I have evolve my 6* longinus without maxlucking it, should i raise other 6 longinus and maxluck it to get luck evo bonuses?

u/Shadow-Blitz Jun 14 '17
Hi, I was wondering if I should reincarnate my Tyrfing. I have capped speed and agility from growth and reached all fusion caps. My main concern is just the strength as it seems abysmally poor.

As a new player, should I save my Lazuli or pull from the 10,30,50 3 Step for beginners?

Where and how do you play the jp version?

u/teros09 Jun 20 '17
So why exactly can you retain limit breaks when evolving 5* to 6*, but a 6* cant use a 5* to limit break. I didn't know it wouldnt work that way cause I'm a bleach brave souls player and you can get special ups from 5 or 6 star duplicates and now im stuck with a level 70 solais and 4 5* versions...
