Guest, it's time once again for the massively important and exciting FoH Asshat Tournament!
Go here and give us your nominations!Who's been the biggest Asshat in the last year? Give us your worst ones!
Sorry i guess i should clarify, 100% of what i've asked is towards doing actual hard content. Farm squads in general i'm fine with, just trying to get some key direction on where I want my base hard content group at and then add additional pieces as the need rises (ex: ele specific, need ignore def etc). I tried Trial X4 tonight with a better understanding of the fight and fucking my phone crashed right when i was going to kill the stupid bitch and when i restarted my phone it lost the data so hopefully i can do that when i get time. Just auto questing quest missions most the day and when i have time to actual play working on evo mats, a GGC here or there and arena.
I'm kinda curious if there is any decent squad setup to leverage 2 Hadaron's for single target bosses, he has such a huge self steriod with his SSB part of me thinks you could have some awesome setup as long as you built a well rounded team around the 2 with plenty of BB regen capability.

Chrome boosts elemental damage for dark units. So that's only extra damage for dark units attacking light units.

Lol, Chrome most certainly isn't a waste. Well, maybe he is, but only on acount of impending unit releases, which is a vulnerability shared by almost every unit.

And don't worry about frogs. When you see honor +80 for questing with friends, you'd be wise to head over to mistral and start, then quit the 3-energy quest repeatedly for lots of honor. Then wait until super honor summon and open the floodgates for dozens of crystals, gods, imps, jewels, burst frogs and possible a sphere frog or two. I run out of crystals for leveling all the time, but i pretty much always have at least half a dozen sphere frogs.
Edit: if you're still leveling faster than you can deplete energy, disregard that.

Sweet I got like 40k honor in the bank from before playing so i should have some pulls! I need to get better at doing raids since the slots give some pretty solid items. It just seemed RC3 started having fights that lasted forever with my low cost team so i kind of tabled it for abit.
I finally hit a thresh hold where i can run 3 7 stars, a 4 star and a 5 star. Waiting on Thursday dungeon to get my evo mat for Hadaron, can't wait but i figure i'll got mitigation + 2 fairly heavy hitters for the 7 stars and then have Tridon 5 star for shield since its still absorbs a decent amount compared to what about any 5 star with no SBB can do for me and run Estali or whatever the white bitch is that has a heal+cleanse on her BB at lvl 4. That way i'm still carrying around some survivability in 2 spots that otherwise would be really minimal value adds since no SBB = shitty skill set on most; can't afford a 4th 7 star yet in the team. All coming together baby! I just cleared the 2nd round of the 5th GCC with that team i just mentioned at lvl 131 without a challenge, cleared all GCC up to it except Michelle which i fucked up on my mitigration when you have the 5 people just ass raping you on stage 3 at the end and lost my mitagotor.

5 summons and daddy got Charla woot! Also got my material for Hadaron & Tridon evo's (hadn't been up since i started playing again) AND i need a fire mecha this weekend and i'll have the core guys in place. Then i can focus all my energy on at least getting to use 4 7 stars in a group haha. I think when its all said and done i might try a Avant > 2 X Hadaron > Charla >Laberd group; maybe with flute up i'll be able to maintain enough BB between Laberd+Charla's abilities. If BB fill is an issue still i can switch out Griff for LS instead of Avant but will gain both BB on crit and BB Fill rate. Oh the burn damage!

Lord Ishad, in deference to your omniscience I entreat you - why the fuck do I give a flying rat's ass about these Valentine units, units whose splendor is as nothing compared to the fiscal assplowing required to guarantee their acquisition?
Well i've been back from my 16 month break for 6 days and managed to go from 100-137, got RC5 (fucking keeps bugging on 1 of the X2's and then crashing for the next hour anytime i try to get in), and have pieced together a pretty awesome roster. Lucky on timing on summons was able to get probably 75-80% of the top tier units for arena/trials/raids. Today owned, i pulled 20 summons got both Vday summons (not overally excited) but i got my Avani, Ultor and Zenia which have been on my wish list both for my dream arena team and Avani possibly for my core. Also got Mikael who i have some plans for so i'm finally at a stage i'll have some flexiability depending on the fights outside the fact i still only can field 3 7star's but i supplement with a 5 star Tridon & a 4 star Ellimeda who cleanses and heals with just BB so its not a full waste of a spot.
I need mecha's to evolve Avani, Avant, as well as Charla all who are ready to go for me. Just got Zenia to 7 star but need to do some metal farming to level him some before he gets to the prime time. I hope my fucking raid shit stops bugging out, i'm only a few missions away from X4 Exodus so i can get Hadaron his axe and go god mode. His damage coupled with a friend Avani is carrying my damage at the moment, using Griff as the leader most time just trying to give Hadaron the best buff he can to rape. I use Krantz or Labred depending on elements for 90% of my mitigation.
Derpa derpa being me I just realized you could do FG's (thought it was locked like the FH) so i tried the 30 stage one and finished stage 25 but stage 24 gave me a challenge so i figured i'd take my loot and come back another time! Made it up to Vriksha on quests so far, i know i need to grind them out so i can use all my fun guys at once but i hate just auto questing and keep fucking around on other shit.
My special project is going to be making my single target bomb team (limited since i can only field the 3 7 star). I'm going to go Mikael for his SBB bomb (1000% w/ max health), Hadaron, and Zenia with BB spam > most peoples BB. Should have that team ready by sunday if i can fucking get into raids so i can get some of their unique spheres to enhance ES.

Her. Zenia is a female, you'll notice in the cut scenes
The mechas are by far the hardest of the daily dungeons to do, but eventually you'll auto through them.
Also, at $1/gem, it's $400 to guarantee both of the VDay summons. Fuck this company. I didn't like 10-1, but 20-1 with 'escalating rewards' on a time-limited summon? Fuck them in their stupid faces.

Yup. Still awaiting Ishad's evaluation on the units, but it doesn't really matter because I could buy a fucking PS4 for the amount I might have to pay for two units TEMPORARILY added to a summoning pool that will that will sooner than later DILUTE THE UTILITY OF SAID UNITS by EXPANDING TO MAKE ROOM FOR BETTER UNITS.
Definitely crazy but for newer folks at least there was pretty awesome. I bought the vday pack for 65 dollars or whatever and off those pulls landed both + a whole host of others with like 3 dupes out of 20 and all 5 star so if you look at it from that perspective it was a great return on investment! Granted most players aren't new but if a F2P was going to go all in and didn't have alot of globals its still pretty nice having guarneted great people to summon. I beat the mecha's my 2nd day back at lvl 100 and 1 7 star so i think my current team will have zero problem, i just didn't farm them enough since i was completely clueless to the game or the fact i'd be swimming in awesome units
Going back and forth while i auto lvl and do raids (finally quit bugging, only 3 left then i can get Hadaron his void mat) and I think for most fights i'm going to run Korzan (toss up between him and Avant) as LS, Mikael for damage+mit, Hadaron, for 7 stars with my low lvl Tridon/4 star healer. I have a 7k+ attack Avani friend so i'll probably stick to using her for the time being unless i need some more HP buff from friend leadership. Not sure wtf i am going to do when i can finally afford my 4th 7 star in this mix, i'd love to put Charla in the mix (i'll have to just run 4 people with 5th empty for awhile once i can afford 4th) but i hate losing Tridon shield, even as a 5star its saved my life many of times plus Charla will have a few different redundancies that i'll have to re-evaluate but i don't think you can avoid with as many things as she has.

Randolph is a premier arena/ca/collesium leader. The other one sucks. (Not pulling for either)
Also jp is releasing "dream evolutions" for starters next week aka "not 8 star units". I'd say currency to see how it impacts the meta.
I was reading about that, sounds like a great direction. Looks like it adds alot more "choice" on how you want to develop characters and not increase such huge power spikes by a full 8 star. Be interesting to see how its implemented but from what I read it looks to add a whole additonal level of complexity and min/max etc which i'm sure most will agree we love even if we bitch
Also would you mind giving me the high level summary of wtf CA is? I started doing one round and it was so time consuming and i have so many other things to focus on i have no clue. I read just a tiny bit but people keep referencing large summoner pools needed etc.

Lol wtf. Wonder if they'll be any good - a lot of the 7*starters had monstrous stats and very little else to offer.

Turbo, just run through it a few times and you'll pick up everything you need to know. The rewards are said to be enormously beneficial to f2p players, but I just don't have time for it.

Ca is basically endless arena where if a unit does it stays dead for the entire day. My biggest problem is all the good rewards are from weekly legendary and the ranking system is binary (you either rank up or you don't). Did you finish at 1061 overall for a week in summoner? Fuck you, that whole week was wasted. It's like trying to finish in the +5hr rank of frontier hunter two weeks in a row, but instead of a 3 hour cool down on orbs, they are infinite. And if you don't finish at +5, you get nothing.I was reading about that, sounds like a great direction.

You get rainbow coins which can be used to summon legacy units for free so there is that.
