Woooo thank fucking god. Rolled 3 times for the new SBS... Diana (new, yeah! Better than Lily Matah maybe), 5th Darvanshel, 4th Iidor. Fuck them. I can't wait to trade some of these dupes away.


Ok, so open question then: What are your dupes, which are you going to keep, and which are you going to be rid of for Achievements?

Dupes I'm keeping:
Breaker Elza - (Seems decent enough to want two of)
Guardian Darvanshel (Main Darvanshel is Breaker)
Guardian 5* Dilma (Guaranteed Armor break)
Jack (special unit)

Achievo Fodder:
Aisha
Michele
Farlon x2
Fiora
Darvanshel x3
Vanberk
Grandt x2
Tiara
Reeze
Arius x4
Darvan
Tia
Ragshelm
Ronel x2

Probably going to keep zero dupes. Going to start with dupes I have 2+ off and just see how many points I need. Other than legend stones and imp keys, not sure what else is available at the store.

Going to be interesting to see how fast they push out the old units that are getting 7*s once the store launches. I need to start making an effort to level again, still shy of 200 team cost.

You should be leveling right now. For the last 8 days and the next 9 days most quest maps give 2x experience. Changing the World is 25 energy for 16.8k xp a run. I'm currently sitting at lvl 202 and look to easily make 214 (the 200 cost level) by the end of the event. The real question: is it worth it to power all the way to 220 just to get a burst emperor?

In the meantime, I'm sitting on 140 gems, 3 summon tickets, and 170 honor summons just waiting for Gumi to get off their fucking asses and release Aaron's batch so I can finally get a mitigator, spark/bc buffer, and infinite SBBer. Fuck you Gumi.

I'll start leveling when fh is over. Between that and raids is enough bf grinding. Plus even with multi sell, cleaning out the inventory is a pain.

Burst emperor isn't worth it. You get so many burst frogs from the slot machine.

So not only are there no rate ups for the new batch, but they only released half of them and split up the two that everyone want. Gumi is a sack of shit.

Yeah, I gave up Summoners War for this game because I was under the impression that great units were more common in BF than SW. That's definitely true due to the tiering system in SW - 4 and especially 5* draws are - at least when I played - exceedingly rare, whereas in BF there are dozens of really good units and a 4* pull is as good as a 5 and 6*, minus the added task of promoting them up to 6*. But at least SW, with its dailies and all its special events, generally allowed you to summon once or twice a day, or do an 11-summon every two weeks or so. Minus Frontier Hunter, I think I've earned 4 gems in two weeks. Compound that with Gumi's refusal to give any decent rate-ups and this shit is straight up ridiculous.

And after my Kuda fiasco, I'd be reticent to summon even if there was a rate up =p

There hasn't been a good influx of gems since the year anniversary/compensation marathons when the servers would continuely take a shit. Gumi has done a terrible job with how they have handled 7* releases, not that it really matters right now because global is so far behind on content you don't really need 7*s right now. Releasing the raaga batch in two parts with no rate ups is dumb.

Going to see how badly the launch of the achievement store goes tomorrow

Did a YOLO summon and pulled Zelfaga (L). I wonder if there is actually some type of rate up going on as the odds are really against that as a random pull.

Too bad he was the one of the three released today I had no desire to pull. He is basically a worse Feeva.

If what I had read is correct, there is no rate up.

That said, I think this game could sense how on the edge I was with frustration (I have no real mitigator at all)....so I decided to try a few pulls with whatever gems I had on hand and bought a Summon Ticket with some unspent points.... Very first pull I got an Aaron. I understand Aaron really isn't the be-all-end-all of mitigators, but gods damn I needed one badly.

Grats, man - I'd love a non-Shera mitigator. I myself am clinging tenaciously to Ishad's claim that the 7*'s aren't yet required. It's the only thing keeping me going atm. Up to 20 gems, thanks to FH, and I'm not going to summon more than one time until a truly decent rate-up occurs. If one ever occurs. With Kanon taking up my lead position and Shera included as a mitigator, I'm really, really low dps. It's killing me. I need to drop Luka because of her low damage, but she's done me so well for so long - and her SBB is pretty decent for spam - that I'm loathe to part with her. To compound matters, my Kikuri transformed from Anima to Guardian when I 6*ed her to ready her for 7*.

I pretty much have to have Feeva/Rosetta friends whenever I attempt to do something beyond normal questing because BB fills so slowly with my current team. Even Elza doesn't suffice. Really need to dual sphere some of these guys, but I'm pretty hesitant to blow frogs on non-7* units.

Cleared all the currently released content. Other than 7* starters, only 7* I used was feeva on the green menace, and trial 5.

Green menace would have worked just as well if I had a rosetta, and I ran a weird team for trial 5, not sure if feeva was the best call there.

New map and sefia kikikuri grand quests getting patched in tomorrow. Hurray content!


edit: sphere frogs add up over time, I have 24 units with dual spheres and I'm sitting on 13 more frogs.

The achievement store helps a bit with frogs and imps if you need them. Got Colt's sphere so I'm running an anima one almost fully imp buffed as my leader nowadays. I can also throw up Ultor, Tridon or Kira as needed and I will have a 7* Zelfaga once the mech dungeon rolls around again.

ID is 5249613434. Let me know if I'm full and I'll boot some of the randoms off to make room.

Yep, wanna evolve my Kikuri...and pray she reverts back to Anima

. Though if her stat distribution at 7* falls in line with current numbers, just higher, it'll be alright. Kanon as guardian doesn't even break 2k though without imps. Maybe not even 1900.
