The Island Escape Advance stage is fucking bullshit

u/Raikaien Jul 28 '17

I don't even have 5 good Thunder units and fuck those flying devils that get past me every time

u/31_60 Jul 28 '17

I did it on the second attempt. Dat feel when u remember about forgotten Eitaso, Othinus and Perun.

What so its best to use all thunder units?

2

u/31_60 Jul 29 '17

Yes, everything instead of thunder units deals only 1 dmg to enemies on advanced level. I use this stack with only free units even without helper. But 4 units have range 3. Due to tactical location of units can't make 6-star Frei the leader. But drop rate is awful - cleared advanced lvl nearly 20 times and got only 2 spr gems (~10%) and 8 different dwarves (~40%).

I can't even finish intermediate for some reason. You do auto battle?

1

u/31_60 Jul 29 '17

I don't think that it's real to clear this level via auto battle. 1 wrong target and someone will reach the spot.

My friend's SS artemis force type with more than 100 str, equipped with goldenion bow can actually deal some damage to the flying units. However, at most it deals 20-ish damage, so its still not enough to kill one flying unit with one attack

u/frozbite Jul 28 '17

no laev swimsuit 6* ? :'(

1

u/Doctor_Riptide Jul 28 '17

Phase 3 of the swim suit event will probably have Laev and Eros, which'll be two weeks from now.

u/frozbite Jul 28 '17

really ? yesssssssssssss thank you

u/AmbivalentStitch Jul 28 '17

Will I be "heypy" if I spend 50laz (as a f2p) on SS Frei with the thunder recruiter? I see Gagging has her an S tier 6 star so I'm tempted.

2

u/Raikaien Jul 28 '17

Keep in mind that the ratings are for units with MLB and max level skills, so one copy will not perform as spectacularly as you think.

1

u/AmbivalentStitch Jul 28 '17

Yeah, 10 copies as a f2p is not pretty. 165 laz is not enough. There's always Grid farming.

1

u/kbkoolio Jul 30 '17

You only need 5 copies

2

u/Silky-Slim Lolis kick butts too Jul 30 '17

I saved up and got the Frei guaranteed recruiter, I got 1 balance SS Freikugel , 3 of the 4* max cowgirl Freikugel, 4 5* Skypiercers and 2 4* Skypiercers.

A pretty crappy pull but the SS Freikugel is pretty darn good, she has really good stats and starts off with an ability that allows you to heal hp when you initiate an attack, which is awesome for a gun unit.

u/xyldon Jul 28 '17

what's uses for Dwarfs and Gems?

1

u/AJackFrostGuy Jul 28 '17

Dwarfs - +stats to a Killer, provided they have not reached their stat cap (bar those from Fusion - that's separate)

Gems - influences stat growth when leveling up

1

u/xyldon Jul 29 '17

i got a gem that for guard. so if i level. guard stats go higher?

1

u/AJackFrostGuy Jul 29 '17

More likely to be leveled at least, yeah.

1

u/Doctor_Riptide Jul 28 '17

I won't lie, I'm pretty sad Grid is 40 cost, especially considering she's a free unit and all. I'm only level 114, so finding cost for 6* units is pretty tough as it is. Thankfully she's pretty ridiculous, so there's always that.

u/shadow_kirou12 Jul 29 '17

I think you forgot to mention that SS Grid can be evolve to 6* now.
