Not double medals but medal rush is going to be up this weekend. Minimum of 28 medals for the rc4 level.

Was just looking at that, looking at rebuilding a raid squad for it.

I pulled an Anima Fadahl, but I've never really used a status inflicter before (well, I have but too low level and only on low/mid questing so honestly I wouldn't have noticed a difference at the time anyway.), so I don't really know how to evaluate them....but I hear that Poison is a huge deal for Medal Rush? I never got a Tora, looks like Fadahl might be my best option.

My Fadahl is level 110, but he already has his Extra Skill and UBB unlocked as well as already being sphere'd (and Anima which helps), so for all intents and purposes he is raid-ready.

--------------------

I'm looking to re-evaluate my raid squad anyway. I made RC5 last night, so it isn't like I'm having trouble or something, but I kill slooooooow. I think I put way way too much emphasis on BC/BB generation and maybe survivability too.

I've been using:

Griel (Lead)
Diana
Quaid
Yujeh
Elimo
Oguro (Friend)

As awesome as Elimo is for a one-stop-shop for all things defensive, the lack of any attacking (and thus BC gen) I think is throwing a wrench in the whole group. Between Griel/Diana/Oguro I do chain SBB everything, so at least Diana does her 500% ATK every turn while keeping bars full, but I still feel like I could do better there if I didn't need her to do that. Utterly Absent are any Spark/Crit buffing, which I know hurts (and no Elemental Weakness, but I don't have a Kira so...)

I'm considering going with something that looks more like this:

Oguro (Lead)
Quaid
Aaron
Selena
Fadahl
Grahdens 6-star (Friend)

*Feeva

With that lineup I'd still cover all my elemental bases, but in exchange for all 6 units attacking, I'd lose BC/BB generation and I'd drop from +140% defense buff to +80% (also I'd trade a real healer for Selena + whatever I get from HC drops).Ok, so Feeva makes 7,but without a Griel lead, I think I'd need a Feeva sub. If I could do without Selena, Feeva would take her spot. Or Fadahl. Ugh.


I dunno, I haven't been raiding all that long (this will be my very first Medal Rush), so I don't really understand yet what is really necessary for BC/BB generation and Survivability on RC4 without going overkill. I don't want to be so on the edge that I have to micro-manage everything every turn (Huge huge plus if I can go a few rounds on auto without looking at my device so I can do other things while I game.)

I'll have my xie jing up all weekend for medal rush. Poison on leader skill, with massive poison inflict on bb, plus the bc gen portion of her leader skill is going to make her boss. If you aren't on my list let me know, I'll clear out room.

Daily raiding you definitely want a full auto battle squad if you aren't leeching. You should go griel lead/ raaga friend, with quaid, aaron, oguru , whatever dps subs. Make the last one kikuri if you have her.

Use oguru to target whatever rare drop part you are farming (ie tail on belmedia for blaze pearl), and then just auto battle.

Kanon and griel are great auto battle leads because they give your team bulk and status immune. Raaga ramps up your damage and keeps bb spam always up.

Ya, I have no one here on my friends list (yet). (and I never leech, at least not on purpose; had my game bug out yesterday for a mission and they ended up failing it - game would crash out any time I tried to enter raid. Even after a full reinstall of the game...but that is another topic.)

I pulled a Sefia but no Kikuri, didn't get the better end of that deal lol.

Was trying out a group in the RC4 Letters mission, will run another with Raaga Friend after this one. (But I'm putting my Griel lead back LOL, godsdamnit lol) Hell, at least earlier this morning I bit the bullet and dug out the Imps from the Achivement store rewards and maxed Imp'd my Lord Griel.

Ok, doing the same mission with Griel Lead/Raaga Friend, Oguro, Aaron, Quaid and Fadahl as subs (with Fadahl being a swing unit, just wanted to try him out and I wanted any trace of healing/bc/bb gen absent from that slot for this run as a test)...and my god, this feels SO much better it is absurd.

Thanks for the advice. My Aaron got within 300 hp's of dying once, but he barely has any imps on him and only running a +20% stats sphere + sol creator, I can beef up his stats a bit more by juggling spheres after this run.

Thanks man, is much appreciated.

And the friend'ing would be nice - would be great to take Xei'Jing for a spin.

Will add you when I get home Leto. You guys interested in trying Balgran? He's gonna be ready soon and his leader is kinda weak so I doubt any friends will have one up. I'll throw him in as lead when not playing if there's interest.Ailments galore.

I am always interested in trying out units I don't have.

I can't promise to return them in the same condition I received them though - I'll have them doing donuts in the parking lot 'n whatnot

Can you guys see if my account is still up? Not sure if I accidentally deleted the Facebook connect if that is possible. I'm having the login issues. I have 322 gems no way I would ever start over now.

Awesome Raaga man! I needed another Raaga on my friends list too lol. Every now and then my friends list catches a case of group insanity and half of them put up leaders with no redeemable value whatsoever.

My friends list breakdown is something like 65% +HP leads, 20% Damage/Buffers and at any given moment the other 15% are trippin' balls on the bad acid....doing things like playing 5-star Bonnie's that haven't even been leveled up with no spheres equipped. (not even a joke heh)

Ok thank you! Yeah I've played daily for over a year and now a few days lost. I can play as a guest but not when connected to Facebook. It's sad they blamed it on low memory at first. It feels like the mass FH bans a few months ago.

Lol. Did a pretty major purge a few weeks ago. I was at like 40% Elzas and Zelnites. Love Elza, but she's past her prime and Zelnite's LS is just annoying to me. Now it's a pretty good mix of units. Quaid is by far the most common, but I love him and don't have one so it's all good. Can't explain it but he seems on par with Colt friends for damage. Maybe it's all the bb fill.

Edit: Griel is definitely welcome. I have Kanon but passive status null + other perks is great.

Ya, huge fan of my Quaid and he's an awesome Arena leader....I play him in pretty much every group I run, but he only leads my Arena groups. Still, I'll be bringing him out off-and-on throughout the day for the Arena.

I don't actually even like Griel that much, but she is so damn useful as a leader I can't get away from her lol.

I still dream of Vesti, but if I don't get one, you might be looking at my Griel's mug for a long time o_O

Yeah I'm probably only gonna be able to summon 5-10 times for it, and that's if I go all in. Probably won't. My friend list will probably be clogged to hell with her when she comes out.
