i still haven't gotten around to finishing cardes. keep trying to do it without a tridon so it's more challenging but then halfway through the fight i always end up losing interest lol.

Eh? I shit all over Cardes without a Tridon. Ran Elza for curse on Phee and shit tier Emilia to paralyze whats his name since I think she's my only paralyzer. Took about half an hour since I ran either Elza or Zelnite and a Cardes friend. Used Ulkina to heal every other turn or so and SBB on turns I didn't need it for some more damage. Bad rng had me use my Fuujin's and one ress at various points. I "tried" to keep one of the adds alive until the other got ressed so they were locked down with either curse or paralyze and I didn't eat attacks from all three. Usually managed it with the fire guy but Phee ate shit a lot when it was her turn to stay up. When Phee died I just made sure I had full SBB when they came back and 1 shot her with 5 AoEs. Zel, Elza, Darv, Ulkina, Emilia, and Cardes was my team iirc. All my guys had double spheres except Emilia zelnite about half way to imp max. Think my team was all anima too. No clue about Cardes all I remember was he was SBB10. Didn't keep track of threshholds but only healed with adds up once I think and endless didn't take anyone for more than about 70%. Just looked at the basic fight info and gave it a shot to see and ended up one shotting. Had really good luck with Paralyze though.

Closed raid beta goes live tomorrow. Expect extended maintainece. Also, closed progress carries over to live release, so sign up.

i tried this team but with falma instead of emilia and a faris friend since i didn't have any friends that left up a cardes. got cardes down to about 30% health but darv and ulkina got killed going passed threshold. i guess the key for me is probably a cardes friend.

I'll do the same think mines like SBB 6 now? I didn't mention it before but everyone had some form of 20%+ hp sphere. I think I read somewhere that Endless hits for 8k at most and everyone other than maybe Emilia was right at or above that.

Is it safe to use IMPs on 4 star units? Or should I hold off until after I evolve them? I'd like to use them on Elza, but she is only 4 star at the moment. I don't want to waste the stats but at the same time I'd love the extra boost right now. I'd also like to get them out of my inventory. Hate having to spend gems on more inventory instead of rare summons.

Nah you're good Elza is very hard to replace and one of the best all around units in global. Imps carry through evos. Same with Sphere Frogs.

Got in after patch ran a few quests and had An Unexpected Error for two hours now. Good times.

So I need a bunch of Dark Totems but i only see ruins for Fire, Water, Earth, and Thunder. Where do you go for Light and Dark totems?

Thanks. Found a Dark Totem on my second run through which let me upgrade both Rin and Elza. I didn't take into account their cost increase though, which has now left me unable to afford my elite team. So now i have two 5 star units, two max lvl 4 star units, and a lvl 23 3 star as its all i can afford. So aggravating.

Anyone get into rAIDS beta?

Haven't seen anyone get one yet. I assume they are trying to fix the mass bannings and new drop check bug before they open raids up.

Are there special events that increase summon rate of Lunaris? She would complement my dark team nicely but I've had no luck summoning her yet. Might just save up my gems if there is a summon event that includes her. Right now my team consists of Rin, 2xElza, Lilly Matah, and Zergal. After a few rounds my team does BBs every single turn for the rest of the dungeon. My poor ipad can't keep up.

I'd like to go all dark but I just can't bring myself to replace Rin right now. Her combo is just too good. Heals every round. Def buff. And I think her 6 star will clear status ailments? If only she was a dark unit.

Mono and rainbow teams are shit at this point. Don't worry about it. Just summon when there's a good rate up event and fill your box with whatever you get. Eventually you'll end up with some good shit. I know, as I have a F2P JP account which started out fucking terrible (first 20-30 summons were all garbage), but now I've got Maxwell, Rosetta, Feeva, Taser, Alpha, Selena, Darvanshel, etc. It just takes time. But yeah, really everything is either OTK teams or a variation using a mitigator to survive.

Lunaris at this point is pretty dog shit. She was good maybe back in early Fall.

Also, don't get too used to the current BB fill rate. Lots of units are bugged, the worst of which being Elza. She's currently got 90 drop checks on her SBB, which is...uh, not even remotely close to correct.

My advice is to work on finding a healer (Lignes/Ulkina if possible), mitigator (Shera/Darvanshel/Narza pref), and infinite STBB'er (Arus/Rowgen/Lilith/Sergio). Max them all out, plus your Lilly and best Elza (either breaker or anima if you have). A good crit buffer is nice as well. Then, go and get yourself Karl and Grah. Max out Grahdens, then take down Maxwell. Depending on what units you end up with, you can do some GGC's prior to Maxwell to make it easier. But really with the current units it's cake.

Once you have Maxwell, Elza, a crit buffer, mitigator and healer, you can do pretty much the rest of the remaining content. Hope for a 2nd healer/mitigator for when raids come out.

Just for reference, my team has been Maxwell (lead), Orna, Lucca, Elza, Zelnite for the last several months. Maxwell is a staple (even still on JP, although I use Rosetta), Orna for crit/fire/thunder, Lucca for attack/earth/water, Elza for sparks, and Zelnite for BC/HC. For harder content (which there isn't much that I can't OTK), I'll throw Shera in over Lucca. Harder than that? Ulkina for either Elza or Orna.

There is no way to change a unit's type is there? For instance, I have a Guardian Lilith that I have read is useless because Guardian nerfs dps too much. I also have a couple of Oracles that I have read are useless because Oracle nerfs hp too much. Should I just fuse these units?

Don't worry about type. If it is your only unit raise it. One day you may get a better type. If the unit is even viable at that point raise it.

I <3 my oracle Shera. Even with my lord one sitting there waiting to be leveled. Why? Don't need a lord one and her replacement is in future.

The unit itself makes it. The type is minor.

(The real answer to your question is there is nothing wrong with guardian lilith except that lilith herself is outclassed by rowgen and arius)

So I have:
4 * Guardian Lilith
4 * Guardian Shera
4 * Anima Ulkina

Add these to 5 * Anima Elza and 5 * Guardian Lilly Matah?

I also have 4 * Breaker Lucca and a 4 * Breaker Zelnite I could use as well. What do you think is the best group out of these? Who should I make leader?

If I set Lilith to leader I get her bonus damage.
