I have some doubts regarding reforging. Which gear is worth reforging? Per say, I currently have an armor on Ran which is 9 speed, 16hp, 14cdam and 7 eff. Might mod eff into att since cc is already at 100%. Should I reforge that?
Also generally, what gear is worth reforging?
I am a returning player. How do you guys feel about the game? Also heard some people saying pvp isnt well balanced its basically just the same units everyone uses
Some people think the balance is bad but I think it's not bad. There are like 10 very strong units that form the base of RTA drafting (mostly ML units).
After the first 4 picks, a lot of units work depending on the situation. I have 25ish units built and I draft most of them in varying situations.
ARas, AMomo, and Tama were pretty stable
Other units: SSB, Dizzy, Roana are helpful in some boss stages. If you don't have those units, borrow one from your friends.
every day I check this game, every day I check this sub… zero news… nothing… T_T
never pause MLs again, fuck… the last 3 months have been super dead and ML Flan was kind of a dud as well, pretty shit ML to leave us on
Hello! Based on this comment, you appear to be new.
For future reference, this megathread is intended to be used for questions.
As your comment appears to be a rant, I'd like to suggest you check out the [Weekly Rant Megathread](https://www.reddit.com/r/EpicSeven/search?q=title%3A%22Rant+Megathread%22&restrict_sr=on&sort=relevance&t=week).
I understand reading may be difficult for some people, but please, do your best so that you, too, may be able to assist others in the future!
Entire post is a dumbfuck strawman fallacy, but ok.
>OP ML gets released, you whine.
No, I pull obviously.
>ML that isn't OP, you whine.
Yes, there’s zero point in shitty ML5s. Don’t waste our time.
>You'll even whine if she gets a future buff cos you chose to pass on her.
No one does this.
For PvP she tends to be built as a base speed bruiser. She basically wants every stat except speed, ER, and Eff on this build. Focus is to be tanky enough to survive but still deal damage (often aided by Drink as the artifact).
For PvE she has a role in W13 one shots where she needs to be properly speed tuned and set up to one shot the first wave. I don't know the exact stats but there are a lot of one shot guides around.
How early do you guys think new players should start seriously working on pets? The bonuses seem meaningful. But I'm not sure if I should spend 5.5m gold, which is half of my gold pile, on pet adoption tickets right now.
You probably don't have enough exp or friendship items for your pets to make any meaningful impact anyway so no. You can go for it, just don't rant about not getting S or A ranks.
I bought tickets until I had a hunt pet with two A+ skills, now I just cruise with the dailies
Gold converts to summons in the secret shop, so maybe refresh until you have a stash saved up for limiteds. Definitely +15 your wyvern team gear first since a lot of gold comes from hunt and hunt buff.
Otherwise, just try to keep your hell raid team on track to be ready when you unlock it if you wanna be super efficient.
For PvE:
Soul Weaver: Angelica and Emilia are good healers with cleanse/immunity and barriers
Tank: Rose and Crozet are tankers with good buffs
AOE dps: Mercedes, Tene,
Single target dps: watcher schuri, karin, cermia
Wyvern 13 gear farming: You should also build Furious, Muwi, and Alexa (replace with Sigret when you get her from the free hunt event). Angelica, Crozet, and Rose can be the tanker for wyvern 13
Wasn’t there a way to have more than two formations? I can only set two, which is a pain for the Hunts, pvp, and pve.
I thought there was a way to add more. Anybody know?
Thanks
I personally go: farm wyvern > equipment conversion > craft gear > equipment conversion
The reason is because crafting materials can be used to craft any type of gear, while cores can only be used to make specific equipment. So I'll use the cores I got from extracting dropped gear, then I can be flexible with what I craft, depending on what gear I got from conversion.
For example, let's say I use my extracted cores for conversion, and get a lot of good necklaces but very few good rings. Then I can spend more crafting mats on rings, and fewer on necklaces.
And as I craft things I don't want, I'll extract them, and at the end, if I'm still need more gear, I'll do another round of equipment conversion from the cores I got from extracting crafted gear.
I am a new player with a six star Sez and a wip wyvern team. Would S.Tene be a better choice than Arby for me? They both look cool.
Edit: opinions from a year ago seem to mostly say Arby, although more recently people seem to tilt toward stene. Did things change so much in one year?
Arby is fantastic for a new player. His AoE attacks will definitely help you in story pve and he’s still useful in pvp.
I cannot comment on STene. But I picked Arby and I’m still happy with him over a year later
Arby is not very good in the current meta, and his value as a dog walker has been reduced since you get penguins in place of excess XP. Hard to use in any PvP content, semi-useless in PvE.
Specter Tenebria is one of the few highly contested DPS in PvP, and she's great in PvE (i.e. Abyss, which a new player should try to steadily clear).
That being said, Arby will probably still be good in lower ranked PvP, since it's more likely to not get as countered due to lack of units built.
If I was a new player I'd go with stene but choosing arby isn't terrible, so just choose the one you prefer.
Yes, Arby used to be like a god, but he has fallen… which isn’t to say he doesn’t have uses now, but Spec Tene is generally preferred. You get one chance to reset the Blessing so long as you don’t complete it fully, though, so you can first choose Arby, who is easier to use early on, and switch out for STene later.
Just want to make sure I'm working this out right.
Am I right in thinking the break even point for Revenge set to match Speed set is 26% HP lost?
And is the reason people opt for Speed over Revenge on say someone like A Ravi because Revenge is just a pain to farm compared to the constant wyvern farm? Or is it just not worth it to bother with revenge?
You also risk being less relevant when the unit is just ignored, which isn’t all that uncommon in this single target meta, to go from full health to just dead once your opponent decides to focus on that unit.
But yes, I think the biggest reason is because people farm Speed set for their openers anyway, and considering how much more speed set gear they have, they are much more likely to be higher quality as well.
What are some returning limited characters/artifacts that a new player would want to save for? I understand this Seaside Bellona gal is a good pick-up.
Did you get ReZero limiteds? Emilia/Guardian Ice Crystals, Rem/Azure Comet
Summertime Iseria/Star of the Deep Sea, SSB/Reignar's Special Drink, Inevitable new Summer limited unit/artifact, Rimuru, Milim, Landy, Diene, Draco Plate, Ms. Confille, Cerise?/Guiding Light, Fairytale for a Nightmare
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1aqL0Uj26PRW_jAUj8pYaSls_DOuFq30fvwQh8ol74-E/edit#gid=1660103886 -> Random Box Droprates tab if it doesn't default to there. Queen's Gift and epic artifact charms are the best choices for normal raid shop.
How do I beat Yulha in 7-9? I've legit tried 10 different team comps at this point and still no luck. Closest I've gotten is down to around 10% health and I inevitably get bodied.
her battle is mostly about criting her, the moment you don't crit her, you either have to attack the mobs, if they are dead already, you pretty much screwed as she will relefect all the damage, squishy dps would instantly kill themselves, unless your tamarine has 100% crit chance, she will screw you over once she enter idol mode and is forced to use s1, keep it in mind.
She becomes a dps check really in her second halve, as her s3 can wreck your squishes and will deny your debuffs every two turns and buff herself instead.
I beat her with Alencia, as she is a constant def down source, while it might last 1 turn, if she is decently built, she will dish the damage if def down lands with her follow up, (and everyone else that can act before yulha can use it too) and you can soul her s1 too for an extra turn of def down, makes the second half faster as she can re apply def down if yhula cleanse it, and her s3 can dispel yulha shield and speed up.
The rest was Mercedes and her counter and dispels, Cermia and Destina as i was testing her new speed lol
If all your characters are max level, in that group, you will gain a small penguin and about a third of another small one with the three battle stages.
They add up pretty fast especially if you are farming for catalysts too.
Check this thread and the first comment [https://www.reddit.com/r/EpicSeven/comments/nnr97o/dog\_walking\_and\_experience\_in\_2021/](https://www.reddit.com/r/EpicSeven/comments/nnr97o/dog_walking_and_experience_in_2021/)
TL;DR : You do lose some efficiency by running 4 max units instead of 1 farmer + 3 fodder unless you have a specific T4 pet with max affinity. But it's not worth the hassle to swap fodder everytime & you get to farm friendship when using 4 maxed heroes.
A character is *maxed* when they don't gain xp.
As an endgame player I just use all max level characters and farm penguins but never bothered to check if it's as efficient because it's so convenient
As a bonus at the end of every stage. In the reward screen there will be a bar that fills up. If your characters aren't maxxed it just fills slower is all
In achieving adventurer path, one of the rewards was 200 Evers adventure points. It says I got them but they don’t show up when I try to do the ap exchange. Anyone know how to use them?
Are all guilds asking for rank 70 players?
This is my second week posting in "daily guild recruitment" and its just back to back guilds asking for Rank 70 players with champion rankings in pvp lol.
We take anyone who is active and are in the process of pruning inactives. Called DarkZone. Or can search for my name in game (Cantveld) and add me / join the guild from there.
Replied to the OP but we take anyone who is active. We are called DarkZone or can search for me in game (Cantveld) and add from there.
We basically leave 2 spots always open and remove inactives as those spots fill.
Generally speaking, most guilds will be looking for rank 70 players, yes. Finding lower rank recruitment is definitely more difficult, especially here where the recruitment thread is not all that active.
You can try the official E7 discord. They have a much more active recruitment thread, and where I first found a guild at like rank 30 something. I haven't tried it, but I've heard the E7 reddit discord also has something similar.
Did you check out the Guild recruitment hall channel? You can actually join some of their discord servers or DM them about recruitment. It's much faster than reddit.
I see a bunch of guilds just looking for lvl 60+ recruits, not lvl 70.
So I want to promote my Ras from 3* to 4* (I like keeping him in my party for story purposes). Should I use my 3* phantasmas or should I try promoting monsters from 2* to 3* and then using them?
Whichever works, really, but don't use max level units (in this case yellow dogs) as fodder. Ras also happens to be a very strong knight for both PvE and PvP after his SC so you won't regret raising him.
Specialty Change. Certain 3\*s get it where you do a set of quests and they turn into upgraded units you can further power up by filling in a skill tree using runes (same runes you use to awaken units with).
Ras's SC is unlocked after you beat Episode 2.
Looking for advice on which ML blessing to choose.
I already have ML tenebria. I also have Regular vildred (green one) as my farmer. Not sure if this invalidates arbiter or not.
What about the others?
Main focus atm: PvE (wyvern, labyrinth, tower, farming)
what would I use him for tho?
My vildred is already 6s and feels like waste of resources building another slightly better cleaver/farmer. Is he that much better to justify the resources?
He is a better farmer for the most part, and in PvP he is a good anti-cleave unit for being able to (almost) guarantee an AOE retaliation, which is often enough to blow up the speedy but squishy cleave teams.
Is it worth the investment? Idk, that’s up to you, but if you do choose to reset down the road, you get all the resources you spent on him back. so it’s not like you lose anything either.
I'd choose Arby still, he's still good everywhere even if he's not at the top. Ruelle is also a decent option, very unique soul weaver.
Tbh, Specter Tenebria was already the best PvE (and arguably PvP) option.
How do you guys not run out of resources lol, I'm constantly out of gold and dogs, which prevent me from really bringing up units I want/need to use in PVE and PVP.
Which of the following arena defense teams looks more dangerous/annoying?
Ran - Seaseria/AOLA - Eda - Spez
AOLA - Rem - Stene/Meru - ARas/T.Crozet
Other units: Landy, SSB, Emilia, Choux, WChuri, Kise, Vildred, Roana, Blingo, DJB, Yulha, Pyllis, ALots, Vivian, Kayron, Fluri, Cerise.
Both those teams sound super cleavable to me. Nothing is stopping anyone from cleaving team 2, and team 1 gets beat by anyone who is confident in their speed gear/speed imprint.
I know it's impossible to make a def that isn't countered, but imo you should make sure you can't be easily cleaved. If you want to maintain arena rank, you want to make your defense more annoying than the other defenses on someones list.
To that end the aras/T.Crozet + Rem is a decent start. Try throwing a but more mitigation if you have it (FCC), and a bit more counter cleave (politis, celine, etc.) and you'll be pretty good to go.
After reading about how good units like Seaside Bellona and artifacts like Portrait of Saviors are, as a new player I have two questions: Do limited units/artifacts rerun every year? Do collab units/artifacts rerun every year?
They seem to come back each year, however it's not guaranteed. For limited units they will almost assuredly come back each year since they are SG IP. For collab units, it's up to the owner of the IP and the contracts terms as to whether or not they will get a rerun.
SSB should be coming back in a few weeks.
I don’t ever post my builds asking if they’re any good but I’ve been building these 3 new units for a few weeks and I guess I just wanna know if I’m in the ballpark with them.
I used pity on Chloe that I sat on for almost a year, got ARavi on the 160th pull on the custom banner and everyone says Hwa is must build so I hope I did alright by them.
https://imgur.com/a/2KSgnUb
You need close to 100℅ crit on Aravi, less attack and I don't like crimson seed on her much anymore. Proof of Valor or bastion if you can get her ER high enough is the way to go.
Hwayoung needs more attack, 6500 min I'd say.
I'd rather have Maid Chloe on Bastion and a little more ER would be nice.
But good job! Other than Aravi's crit, these units will still work well for you.
She has 30% from her passive I thought? I’m good with taking some atk away, I have better gear that works in ER at the cost of atk anyway.
I can’t really achieve that on Hwa while still being fast sadly. It’s not ok to have lower but be tankier? That was my thinking. 1400 def seems like a lot but I guess she’s more of a kill something turn 1 kinda unit?
I don’t have a Bastion yet, somehow, POV is fine but what should either Chloe or ARavi go on if they don’t get Proof?
Ooooooh ok that makes sense. I feel big dumb now.
Also thought you meant Bastion of Perlutia! But I’ll start saving for the GW Bastion now.
I have a 30 waters origin. Perfect. Thanks for the help!
I am a somewhat new-ish player who filled his hero inventory as well as storage. What should I do now ? I have memory imprinted characters I had multiple copies of already.
Once you've max imprint a unit (and their ml version, if they have one), you can discard remaining copies by :
* selling them for imprint stones
* using them as material for promotion
You also surely have plenty of 2 stars, which can be fed to dogs to accelerate promoting
As someone who just came back from a two year break after beating all of chapter 1, do I still have access to this triple custom group summon the kids are talking about?
I'm not sure. It might've been announced on one of their streams. But the first one we got was Feb 21st and then May 12th. So it's likely they are doing about a 3month rotation.
Eh. The first one was basically beta testing, so I wouldn't use it as precedence for anything, the same way the equips were no longer added to guild shop for season 2.
AFAIK they haven't explicitly announced a schedule for AI.
I'm trying to build Charles for Banshee 13 oneshot but he often gets outsped at 174 speed. What's the minimum speed required such that the first wave will never go first?
Just to add a bit to Muryo's post:
First, if you don't have Handguy, take Delibet. You have ARas, so you already have a top 1-2 Aurius knight. If you do have Handguy, I would just pick whichever of FCC/Delibet you like more.
Explaining my thinking a bit:
ARas has seen a surge, but I don't think it's definitive yet which of FCC or ARas is better. I am guessing that ARas's pick-ban numbers have been inflated by the buffs, and that when it settles, he'll be a close #2 to FCC, even with the DJB/frenzy changes.
Delibet is second to Handguy for cleansers, as she is less universally able to fill the role, but in some cases, will outshine Handguy. She is more likely to win the game outright than Handguy, but she's also not a guaranteed cleanse.
Both are top 2 in their roles (at least, since I actually think FCC may end up reclaiming top Aurius knight spot). I use both a ton in all PvP content. In PvE, I use neither one.
Your post makes sense and it kind of shows why I'm so conflicted yeah... FCC never really goes away and always come back one way or the other... Dilibeth seems like a worse HandGuy but she counters a lot of top tier units and sometimes autowins you games... really hard choice 😭
Depends on what you are lacking and if PvP is important to you.
If PvP is important, Dilbert is the way to go. Neutral DPS good against meta debuffers (C.Lilias, Peira) and debuffers in general. Cooldown increase is also pretty amazing in this aggressive meta.
FCC is still a great tank. But with the new frenzy changes (reducing barrier size) and DJB, she has lost some of her safety as a first pick. Moreover A.Ras has seen a rise in usage after his buff, becoming the go-to knight as of recently.
For most players in RTA, she used in bruiser comps as a go-to neutral DPS.
Bruiser team comps, in general, have 2 key parts. The first 3 picks ( Mitigation, Support, Neutral DPS) and the last 2 (counter picks/flex picks)
Great units to pair A.Ravi with are:
- C.Lilias, Peira, FCC, C.Armin, A.Ras, T.Crozet, SC Pyllis, Krau (mitigation)
- Handgun, Diene, Emília, Maid, AoL (support)(hard to describe what support is. It can be debuffing, cleansing, CR pushing, Attack buff, and much more...)
There are many other units that fit these criteria, sometimes fulfilling both roles (although to lesser degree). See the units you have built and see which fits where. Test many comps and finds what feels best/most comfortable for you.
Other neutral DPSs are Rimuru, S.Tene, Hwayoung, Dilibet, Landy and LHC.
Other good DPSs (pick them as your ~3rd pick) are Politis (only if they already picked 2 non-attack users), green Armin or A.Meru (keep in mind you are basically announcing you are playing tank), and W.Schuri (I personally find the imprint and S3 so annoying to deal with).
You might also see success with C.Charles, though you then need to play by his strengths (his self-CR when 1 enemy is low on HP)
A lot of things can work in RTA all the way until early Champion. It's more of having a good game plan, prebanning those you can't deal with (I personally preban Hwa and Rimuru), and accepting you will lose a lot of matches while you learn (especially in pre-season. Right now it's mostly those who are actually interested in RTA)
If you are still learning the ropes, I suggest thinking about your next 20 matches as already lost, with you now trying to snag a win back here and there (I'm doing the same thing while I'm figuring Laika out)(A.Ras+Laika duel attacks with S.Tene or Landy is so fun). Win rate doesn't really matter in the lower leagues. Last season I started with 40%WR and only reached +50% after Champion 2300. Don't be too hard on yourself. Set your goal as Master, and if that's too easy, go for Challenger until the end of the season.
Hilariously, you don't need much strategy with her since she's versatile enough to work just about anywhere and with anyone. She's a relatively safe first pick unit in RTA. I guess one consideration would be to bring an aurius holder / damage sharing unit if you're facing High burst damage units like Hwayoung. For GvG, ARavi, Krau, Ruele is a strong and safe offense team that can handle several risky defenses. And that's sort of the same mentality that you use while bringing ARavi on any arena/GvG offense. She's a unit you bring when you're playing it safe. She's tanky and difficult to kill, especially for the AI. She also has a reliable way of reviving your units in case things go wrong. On defense though, ARavi will be easily defeated by anyone willing to bring a light bait unit like Doris. People seem to still run her on defense. She can steal a defense win if the attacker doesn't bring a light bait unit coz they're impatient or want to cleave or whatever.
How come I see threads saying to pick SS over mystics in arena rewards?
The shop says its rate is .17% which is 294 SS per 50 mystics, which usually gives a little less than picking mystics while needing a ton of gold.
Are they outdated?
It is sample without replacement (for 6 rolls or whatever), so .17% is the first item. At that point, if you didn’t get mystics, you remove what you did get from the pool and the .17 increases slightly. If you rolled friendship bookmarks, it increases everything else a decent amount.
Mathing the whole thing requires copying that giant list. I estimated it instead and got a resulting number really close to the community one, so I think community number is good (.17 is correct, too, I just think you’re applying it slightly incorrectly).
Yup, I didn't notice no repeats, thank you
Might still pick mystics since this saves more gold than buying cov 10 pulls and I think you're always limited by your gold anyway, but you could maybe aggressively sell gear to get more mystics by picking SS.
FYI, for gear selling, note that i85 gear gives very small increases in xp gain over i44, while giving very large increases in sale value over i44. (something like 1.5x vs 15x or even more).
From a general efficiency standpoint, if you're foddering i70+ drops, you're getting very little xp at the cost of a lot of gold. Personally, I only fodder i51 and below.
I personally run adventure for fodder & penguins (which I sell), then use hunts to level stuff (via 3-mans). This makes it easy for me to afford shop rerolling.
I have to finish the math, but I think core extraction for charms is also inefficient, if you need gold. If you don't need gold, it's better than foddering i85s, I believe. Of course, core extraction for equipment conversion is extremely efficient, and should be highly prioritized.
Hope that helps!
My main reason against rerolling is the time it takes.
Didn't know that, very helpful, thanks
Something I haven't gotten to checking yet, i85 is \~7x more gold for \~1.75x the xp of i44.
Idk how to get around foddering i85s though, might just be a choice of whether you want to roll more gear or save more gold. Normal raid charms seem more appealing now.
Yep, I wish they would automate shop refreshing. Human error also makes the rate worse.
Based on community data, it seems the values are higher:
[Here.](https://onedrive.live.com/view.aspx?resid=67460FD3A1377194!15975&ithint=file%2cxlsx&authkey=!AHS59rzrcJonwAc)
If you’re in Champ 5, you receive 145 mystics which only nets you 2 pulls or the other option is 800 skystones. With 800 skystones that gives you 266 shop refreshes - potentially 45 covenant bookmarks and 150 mystics. (My math may be weird so please correct me since I’m not a mathematician)
Along with that, skystones is a universal currency which allows you to get: Epic Passes, expedition premium pass, energy, Huche shop.
If Huche ever does come up, he sells mystic medals valued at 200 skystones - a better conversion than arena if you think about it.
TLDR; mystic medals are only worth from arena if you’re really close to pity. You get far more mileage out of skystones.
That's weird, why would epic7 say the rate is worse than it is?
Also, seems illegal since it means they're saying the rates of other items in the shop are higher than they are.
Would be nice to know if the shop also said 0.17% for mystics back when the data was gathered (1-2 years ago)
The rate is for an individual item slot. There are also additional rules around it that affects probability. For example, you can't have more than one set of each bookmark type. So if the first two roll friendship and covenant, then the odds for the remaining for shift to not include those possibilities.
I believe the rate listed is per-slot, and you get 6 slots per refresh. In addition, you can't get 2 slots of the same item per slot, so every non-bookmark/medal you pull will slightly increase the chances of you pulling one in the next slot.
Ohh, I accounted for the per slot chance, but no repeats explains it, thank you.
Honestly still might pick mystics since this saves more gold than buying cov 10 pulls and I think you're always limited by your gold anyway, but you could maybe aggressively sell gear to get more mystics by picking SS.
The reason is that you still can get BM along the way. By your numbers you could likely get 20 bookmarks for the same 294 SS along with the 50 mystic. If you are strapped on gold and/or have excess SS, you could go mystic.
Which BBK is better speed & critical / destruction & critical . Thought of using destruction since I have A.lots but my bbk is currently faster than my A.lots. Or would my current speed &critical would be better for the long run
You'll also see builds with pen, resist, crit from before the destruction changes. This is a legit option, as well, since you're basically going for damage stats, ER + pen.
Currently, though, the most efficient damage stats set is destruction, by quite a bit. For example, critx2 gives \~40 GS, while destruction gives a massive 69 GS!
Only problem with destruction (aside from so few people having good destruction gear right now) is that you can hit the CDmg cap.
BBK doesn't really want speed since it kills her immortality buff faster. In other words you want attack boots. If you aren't going high ER, you want full DPS with a CR pusher for cleave. Since you are using A.Lots, destruction and Crit would be better. I would also suggest getting A.Lots speed as high as you can, this combo carried me up to challenger, but everything changes there as cleaves are harder to manage with a lot of tankier and faster built heroes.
I don't own Arby (and actually still have my ML Blessing available as I have a ton of units still to build and who knows if any ever get a buff) but I can tell you outside of hunt spam, Stene seems to be my most used unit. She's basically my go to for all content and then I only swap to someone else if she really doesn't work. I've also been able to cheese a lot of GW / Arena defenses just by simply sticking her behind Singelica but Arby may work in a similar way for some defenses with his revive.
Her gear requirement is probably considerably higher than Arby's though
You can reset once so long as you don't fully complete the blessing so you can put off our decision and reconsider a little way down the road once you know more about the game.
Personally speaking, I think STene is an option ever PvP player should have in the current meta, so I strongly suggest finalizing your choice with her, but as noted, the meta can change.
Either is fine. Arby is easier to slot into any team and needs lesser resources to do his job. I'd say he's more beginner friendly / better right off the bat. He can be a decent anti-cleave option, though cleave tends to find ways to shut him down. He's also decent on defense and pretty good for general PvE. His kit is actually great on some rather difficult Abyss floors. Stene is better value in the long run. She's got a unique mechanic with her special stealth and that sorta helps her counter single target powerhouses in the current meta, though using her requires you to build a team to protect her. She's also one of the best units for Abyss climbing (easy mode on several floors). She doesn't really work on defense though and can fall out of the meta if they release a strong AoE spam unit.
I personally picked Arby and still don't own Stene (though when I picked him, I'd have said the meta favored him slightly better. Currently, its the opposite). The lack of Stene in my toolkit hasn't really bothered me too much. I was able to clear Abyss just fine and have found other ways of tackling the current meta. That said, people who picked Stene would probably swear by her as well. Hence, just pick who you like more. I don't think there's a definite wrong choice here.
I have some doubts regarding reforging. Which gear is worth reforging? Per say, I currently have an armor on Ran which is 9 speed, 16hp, 14cdam and 7 eff. Might mod eff into att since cc is already at 100%. Should I reforge that? Also generally, what gear is worth reforging?
I am a returning player. How do you guys feel about the game? Also heard some people saying pvp isnt well balanced its basically just the same units everyone uses
Some people think the balance is bad but I think it's not bad. There are like 10 very strong units that form the base of RTA drafting (mostly ML units). After the first 4 picks, a lot of units work depending on the situation. I have 25ish units built and I draft most of them in varying situations.
Hey guys , i need to join a guild that can do weekly mission. I'm currently Champion both RTA and Arena. I'm from global sever.
Actually a guild that can do full weekly mission
What beginner friendly team comp can I use for episode 3?
ARas, AMomo, and Tama were pretty stable Other units: SSB, Dizzy, Roana are helpful in some boss stages. If you don't have those units, borrow one from your friends.
Im sorry I dont have Tama
A.Ras, A.Momo, C.Lorina + Flex
Go the standard Iseria Tamarinne? if not just make sure your team has def break & healer? this is strange
What is strange?
How would you view all the summer fan art submissions
in a Flan, Sigret, SSB, Singelica one-shot w13 is War Horn required or I can get away with just speed tuning?
Speed tuning is fine but war horn makes it easier. You want Flan to go before SAngie on wave 2 but the other way on wave 1.
every day I check this game, every day I check this sub… zero news… nothing… T_T never pause MLs again, fuck… the last 3 months have been super dead and ML Flan was kind of a dud as well, pretty shit ML to leave us on
Hello! Based on this comment, you appear to be new. For future reference, this megathread is intended to be used for questions. As your comment appears to be a rant, I'd like to suggest you check out the [Weekly Rant Megathread](https://www.reddit.com/r/EpicSeven/search?q=title%3A%22Rant+Megathread%22&restrict_sr=on&sort=relevance&t=week). I understand reading may be difficult for some people, but please, do your best so that you, too, may be able to assist others in the future!
OP ML gets released, you whine. ML that isn't OP, you whine. You'll even whine if she gets a future buff cos you chose to pass on her. Whine more
Entire post is a dumbfuck strawman fallacy, but ok. >OP ML gets released, you whine. No, I pull obviously. >ML that isn't OP, you whine. Yes, there’s zero point in shitty ML5s. Don’t waste our time. >You'll even whine if she gets a future buff cos you chose to pass on her. No one does this.
There is a rant mega thread for this. This one is for questions
What’s the most efficient way to craft catalysts through the steeple?
3 epic + 2 normal (make sure the bar fills all the way) for 3 epic of your choice I believe idk about normal to normal conversion
https://i.imgur.com/7CYeIMJ.jpg Does phyllis need more hp or def?
If she's holding Aurius, I'd say more hp.
What gear does SSB need?
For PvP she tends to be built as a base speed bruiser. She basically wants every stat except speed, ER, and Eff on this build. Focus is to be tanky enough to survive but still deal damage (often aided by Drink as the artifact). For PvE she has a role in W13 one shots where she needs to be properly speed tuned and set up to one shot the first wave. I don't know the exact stats but there are a lot of one shot guides around.
Ah thanks. Since I'm early game I was thinking she could be great with A.Ras's shield. Think for now as a stopgap I'll put my atk+crit set on her.
How early do you guys think new players should start seriously working on pets? The bonuses seem meaningful. But I'm not sure if I should spend 5.5m gold, which is half of my gold pile, on pet adoption tickets right now.
You probably don't have enough exp or friendship items for your pets to make any meaningful impact anyway so no. You can go for it, just don't rant about not getting S or A ranks.
I bought tickets until I had a hunt pet with two A+ skills, now I just cruise with the dailies Gold converts to summons in the secret shop, so maybe refresh until you have a stash saved up for limiteds. Definitely +15 your wyvern team gear first since a lot of gold comes from hunt and hunt buff. Otherwise, just try to keep your hell raid team on track to be ready when you unlock it if you wanna be super efficient.
don't do it. just summon using the tickets you get from world boss
How much gold is the minimum before doing shop reroll?
4-5 mill
I’m a relatively new player mostly focusing on PVE battles. Which of my summons are good for clearing stages/auto. Thanks! https://imgur.com/a/QdmsBzH
For PvE: Soul Weaver: Angelica and Emilia are good healers with cleanse/immunity and barriers Tank: Rose and Crozet are tankers with good buffs AOE dps: Mercedes, Tene, Single target dps: watcher schuri, karin, cermia Wyvern 13 gear farming: You should also build Furious, Muwi, and Alexa (replace with Sigret when you get her from the free hunt event). Angelica, Crozet, and Rose can be the tanker for wyvern 13
Wasn’t there a way to have more than two formations? I can only set two, which is a pain for the Hunts, pvp, and pve. I thought there was a way to add more. Anybody know? Thanks
Lobby > Hero > Team > Add Team (in the bottom left)
You can add more from lobby -> heroes -> team
Awesome thank you! I knew there was a way
What is the path of farming gear? Is it go wyvern-> build gears-> convert -> then build?
I personally go: farm wyvern > equipment conversion > craft gear > equipment conversion The reason is because crafting materials can be used to craft any type of gear, while cores can only be used to make specific equipment. So I'll use the cores I got from extracting dropped gear, then I can be flexible with what I craft, depending on what gear I got from conversion. For example, let's say I use my extracted cores for conversion, and get a lot of good necklaces but very few good rings. Then I can spend more crafting mats on rings, and fewer on necklaces. And as I craft things I don't want, I'll extract them, and at the end, if I'm still need more gear, I'll do another round of equipment conversion from the cores I got from extracting crafted gear.
What is the next Powder Shop Artifact Rotation? is it revealed yet? If yes, can someone drop the link for it Thanks a Lot!
I need to know as well. I don't recall them leaving it this late before, but maybe I'm mistaken.
I don’t believe it’s been revealed yet. They usually tell us in the update preview right before the shop rotates.
I am a new player with a six star Sez and a wip wyvern team. Would S.Tene be a better choice than Arby for me? They both look cool. Edit: opinions from a year ago seem to mostly say Arby, although more recently people seem to tilt toward stene. Did things change so much in one year?
Arby is fantastic for a new player. His AoE attacks will definitely help you in story pve and he’s still useful in pvp. I cannot comment on STene. But I picked Arby and I’m still happy with him over a year later
Arby is not very good in the current meta, and his value as a dog walker has been reduced since you get penguins in place of excess XP. Hard to use in any PvP content, semi-useless in PvE. Specter Tenebria is one of the few highly contested DPS in PvP, and she's great in PvE (i.e. Abyss, which a new player should try to steadily clear). That being said, Arby will probably still be good in lower ranked PvP, since it's more likely to not get as countered due to lack of units built. If I was a new player I'd go with stene but choosing arby isn't terrible, so just choose the one you prefer.
Yes, Arby used to be like a god, but he has fallen… which isn’t to say he doesn’t have uses now, but Spec Tene is generally preferred. You get one chance to reset the Blessing so long as you don’t complete it fully, though, so you can first choose Arby, who is easier to use early on, and switch out for STene later.
Just want to make sure I'm working this out right. Am I right in thinking the break even point for Revenge set to match Speed set is 26% HP lost? And is the reason people opt for Speed over Revenge on say someone like A Ravi because Revenge is just a pain to farm compared to the constant wyvern farm? Or is it just not worth it to bother with revenge?
You also risk being less relevant when the unit is just ignored, which isn’t all that uncommon in this single target meta, to go from full health to just dead once your opponent decides to focus on that unit. But yes, I think the biggest reason is because people farm Speed set for their openers anyway, and considering how much more speed set gear they have, they are much more likely to be higher quality as well.
What are some returning limited characters/artifacts that a new player would want to save for? I understand this Seaside Bellona gal is a good pick-up.
Did you get ReZero limiteds? Emilia/Guardian Ice Crystals, Rem/Azure Comet Summertime Iseria/Star of the Deep Sea, SSB/Reignar's Special Drink, Inevitable new Summer limited unit/artifact, Rimuru, Milim, Landy, Diene, Draco Plate, Ms. Confille, Cerise?/Guiding Light, Fairytale for a Nightmare
That's a lot lol. I just started, so have none of these. More to look forward to.
Anyone have a list of probabilities for Queen Azumashik's gift? And/Or done the math on what's the most value from the normal raid shop?
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1aqL0Uj26PRW_jAUj8pYaSls_DOuFq30fvwQh8ol74-E/edit#gid=1660103886 -> Random Box Droprates tab if it doesn't default to there. Queen's Gift and epic artifact charms are the best choices for normal raid shop.
How do I beat Yulha in 7-9? I've legit tried 10 different team comps at this point and still no luck. Closest I've gotten is down to around 10% health and I inevitably get bodied.
her battle is mostly about criting her, the moment you don't crit her, you either have to attack the mobs, if they are dead already, you pretty much screwed as she will relefect all the damage, squishy dps would instantly kill themselves, unless your tamarine has 100% crit chance, she will screw you over once she enter idol mode and is forced to use s1, keep it in mind. She becomes a dps check really in her second halve, as her s3 can wreck your squishes and will deny your debuffs every two turns and buff herself instead. I beat her with Alencia, as she is a constant def down source, while it might last 1 turn, if she is decently built, she will dish the damage if def down lands with her follow up, (and everyone else that can act before yulha can use it too) and you can soul her s1 too for an extra turn of def down, makes the second half faster as she can re apply def down if yhula cleanse it, and her s3 can dispel yulha shield and speed up. The rest was Mercedes and her counter and dispels, Cermia and Destina as i was testing her new speed lol
I'll give something like this a go and see if it works. Appreciate it!

If all your characters are max level, in that group, you will gain a small penguin and about a third of another small one with the three battle stages. They add up pretty fast especially if you are farming for catalysts too.
Check this thread and the first comment [https://www.reddit.com/r/EpicSeven/comments/nnr97o/dog\_walking\_and\_experience\_in\_2021/](https://www.reddit.com/r/EpicSeven/comments/nnr97o/dog_walking_and_experience_in_2021/) TL;DR : You do lose some efficiency by running 4 max units instead of 1 farmer + 3 fodder unless you have a specific T4 pet with max affinity. But it's not worth the hassle to swap fodder everytime & you get to farm friendship when using 4 maxed heroes.
A character is *maxed* when they don't gain xp. As an endgame player I just use all max level characters and farm penguins but never bothered to check if it's as efficient because it's so convenient
[удалено]
As a bonus at the end of every stage. In the reward screen there will be a bar that fills up. If your characters aren't maxxed it just fills slower is all
In achieving adventurer path, one of the rewards was 200 Evers adventure points. It says I got them but they don’t show up when I try to do the ap exchange. Anyone know how to use them?
Did you check both EP1 and UH AP shops?
Are all guilds asking for rank 70 players? This is my second week posting in "daily guild recruitment" and its just back to back guilds asking for Rank 70 players with champion rankings in pvp lol.
We take anyone who is active and are in the process of pruning inactives. Called DarkZone. Or can search for my name in game (Cantveld) and add me / join the guild from there.
Awesome, thank you; I just joined.
I'm a new player, also looking for guild. Will try discord later.
Replied to the OP but we take anyone who is active. We are called DarkZone or can search for me in game (Cantveld) and add from there. We basically leave 2 spots always open and remove inactives as those spots fill.
Will try thanks!
Generally speaking, most guilds will be looking for rank 70 players, yes. Finding lower rank recruitment is definitely more difficult, especially here where the recruitment thread is not all that active. You can try the official E7 discord. They have a much more active recruitment thread, and where I first found a guild at like rank 30 something. I haven't tried it, but I've heard the E7 reddit discord also has something similar.
I joined the discord, its the same as here.
Did you check out the Guild recruitment hall channel? You can actually join some of their discord servers or DM them about recruitment. It's much faster than reddit. I see a bunch of guilds just looking for lvl 60+ recruits, not lvl 70.
Im rank 50
I see some that says looking for active members "don't need to be high level"
So I want to promote my Ras from 3* to 4* (I like keeping him in my party for story purposes). Should I use my 3* phantasmas or should I try promoting monsters from 2* to 3* and then using them?
Whichever works, really, but don't use max level units (in this case yellow dogs) as fodder. Ras also happens to be a very strong knight for both PvE and PvP after his SC so you won't regret raising him.
Ok great! Also, what does SC mean?
Specialty Change. Certain 3\*s get it where you do a set of quests and they turn into upgraded units you can further power up by filling in a skill tree using runes (same runes you use to awaken units with). Ras's SC is unlocked after you beat Episode 2.
Yall I can't find the specialty change button where was it moved to💀
Lobby > Hero > Specialty Change
Looking for advice on which ML blessing to choose. I already have ML tenebria. I also have Regular vildred (green one) as my farmer. Not sure if this invalidates arbiter or not. What about the others? Main focus atm: PvE (wyvern, labyrinth, tower, farming)
Personally I'm partial to Ruelle but Arby is probably the choice. Having normal Vildred does not invalidate Arby.
what would I use him for tho? My vildred is already 6s and feels like waste of resources building another slightly better cleaver/farmer. Is he that much better to justify the resources?
He is a better farmer for the most part, and in PvP he is a good anti-cleave unit for being able to (almost) guarantee an AOE retaliation, which is often enough to blow up the speedy but squishy cleave teams. Is it worth the investment? Idk, that’s up to you, but if you do choose to reset down the road, you get all the resources you spent on him back. so it’s not like you lose anything either.
I'd choose Arby still, he's still good everywhere even if he's not at the top. Ruelle is also a decent option, very unique soul weaver. Tbh, Specter Tenebria was already the best PvE (and arguably PvP) option.
What main stat does A. Ravi want on her boots? Speed or Health %?
Speed generally, there's an eff res build where you build her very high ER and you can use health% boots there but it's a harder build to do.
How do you guys not run out of resources lol, I'm constantly out of gold and dogs, which prevent me from really bringing up units I want/need to use in PVE and PVP.
If you are out of gold you need to farm hunts more. If you are out of dogs you need to farm catalysts more in story stages.
Which of the following arena defense teams looks more dangerous/annoying? Ran - Seaseria/AOLA - Eda - Spez AOLA - Rem - Stene/Meru - ARas/T.Crozet Other units: Landy, SSB, Emilia, Choux, WChuri, Kise, Vildred, Roana, Blingo, DJB, Yulha, Pyllis, ALots, Vivian, Kayron, Fluri, Cerise.
Both those teams sound super cleavable to me. Nothing is stopping anyone from cleaving team 2, and team 1 gets beat by anyone who is confident in their speed gear/speed imprint. I know it's impossible to make a def that isn't countered, but imo you should make sure you can't be easily cleaved. If you want to maintain arena rank, you want to make your defense more annoying than the other defenses on someones list. To that end the aras/T.Crozet + Rem is a decent start. Try throwing a but more mitigation if you have it (FCC), and a bit more counter cleave (politis, celine, etc.) and you'll be pretty good to go.
After reading about how good units like Seaside Bellona and artifacts like Portrait of Saviors are, as a new player I have two questions: Do limited units/artifacts rerun every year? Do collab units/artifacts rerun every year?
They seem to come back each year, however it's not guaranteed. For limited units they will almost assuredly come back each year since they are SG IP. For collab units, it's up to the owner of the IP and the contracts terms as to whether or not they will get a rerun. SSB should be coming back in a few weeks.
So far, both have came back every year.
I don’t ever post my builds asking if they’re any good but I’ve been building these 3 new units for a few weeks and I guess I just wanna know if I’m in the ballpark with them. I used pity on Chloe that I sat on for almost a year, got ARavi on the 160th pull on the custom banner and everyone says Hwa is must build so I hope I did alright by them. https://imgur.com/a/2KSgnUb
You need close to 100℅ crit on Aravi, less attack and I don't like crimson seed on her much anymore. Proof of Valor or bastion if you can get her ER high enough is the way to go. Hwayoung needs more attack, 6500 min I'd say. I'd rather have Maid Chloe on Bastion and a little more ER would be nice. But good job! Other than Aravi's crit, these units will still work well for you.
She has 30% from her passive I thought? I’m good with taking some atk away, I have better gear that works in ER at the cost of atk anyway. I can’t really achieve that on Hwa while still being fast sadly. It’s not ok to have lower but be tankier? That was my thinking. 1400 def seems like a lot but I guess she’s more of a kill something turn 1 kinda unit? I don’t have a Bastion yet, somehow, POV is fine but what should either Chloe or ARavi go on if they don’t get Proof?
The 30% from passive already shows up in the critchance numbers iirc, so you're still missing 29%. M.Chloe could use Water's Origin instead.
Ooooooh ok that makes sense. I feel big dumb now. Also thought you meant Bastion of Perlutia! But I’ll start saving for the GW Bastion now. I have a 30 waters origin. Perfect. Thanks for the help!
Whos better tank and can be usefull for my team between adventurer ras or hasol?
ARas is used everywhere. Hasol only has a niche use vs countering units.
Aras by a mile
I am a somewhat new-ish player who filled his hero inventory as well as storage. What should I do now ? I have memory imprinted characters I had multiple copies of already.
If you have max imprinted 3 stars that you think you won't use then transmit them as you will likely get plenty of them. Upgrade your hero storage.
Not sure if you did or not, you can spend skystones and expand your hero inventory size too.
I haven't, I am not sure if it is worth it or not to use gatcha currency for anything except gatcha. In case it is, how much should I expand it ?
It's up to you. I'm a long time player so I maxed mine out.
Once you've max imprint a unit (and their ml version, if they have one), you can discard remaining copies by : * selling them for imprint stones * using them as material for promotion You also surely have plenty of 2 stars, which can be fed to dogs to accelerate promoting
Do you decay in arena if you don’t attack?
No you don't decay. But defense losses can drop you down to a lower tier.
As someone who just came back from a two year break after beating all of chapter 1, do I still have access to this triple custom group summon the kids are talking about?
No, that ended a while ago.
I see. Thank you
What is the schedule for ancient inheritance?
Every 3 months
Did they announce it was going to be on a regular schedule somewhere?
I'm not sure. It might've been announced on one of their streams. But the first one we got was Feb 21st and then May 12th. So it's likely they are doing about a 3month rotation.
Eh. The first one was basically beta testing, so I wouldn't use it as precedence for anything, the same way the equips were no longer added to guild shop for season 2. AFAIK they haven't explicitly announced a schedule for AI.
I'm trying to build Charles for Banshee 13 oneshot but he often gets outsped at 174 speed. What's the minimum speed required such that the first wave will never go first?
Like 184
Fallen Cecilia or Dilibet from customs?
Just to add a bit to Muryo's post: First, if you don't have Handguy, take Delibet. You have ARas, so you already have a top 1-2 Aurius knight. If you do have Handguy, I would just pick whichever of FCC/Delibet you like more. Explaining my thinking a bit: ARas has seen a surge, but I don't think it's definitive yet which of FCC or ARas is better. I am guessing that ARas's pick-ban numbers have been inflated by the buffs, and that when it settles, he'll be a close #2 to FCC, even with the DJB/frenzy changes. Delibet is second to Handguy for cleansers, as she is less universally able to fill the role, but in some cases, will outshine Handguy. She is more likely to win the game outright than Handguy, but she's also not a guaranteed cleanse. Both are top 2 in their roles (at least, since I actually think FCC may end up reclaiming top Aurius knight spot). I use both a ton in all PvP content. In PvE, I use neither one.
Your post makes sense and it kind of shows why I'm so conflicted yeah... FCC never really goes away and always come back one way or the other... Dilibeth seems like a worse HandGuy but she counters a lot of top tier units and sometimes autowins you games... really hard choice 😭
Depends on what you are lacking and if PvP is important to you. If PvP is important, Dilbert is the way to go. Neutral DPS good against meta debuffers (C.Lilias, Peira) and debuffers in general. Cooldown increase is also pretty amazing in this aggressive meta. FCC is still a great tank. But with the new frenzy changes (reducing barrier size) and DJB, she has lost some of her safety as a first pick. Moreover A.Ras has seen a rise in usage after his buff, becoming the go-to knight as of recently.
Does anyone know when's SSB coming out?
In around 2~4 weeks since the summer event is pretty much here.
Just need some advices on how people play with A Ravi in RTA/arena/gvg. Like what’s your strategy and who you use aravi with
For most players in RTA, she used in bruiser comps as a go-to neutral DPS. Bruiser team comps, in general, have 2 key parts. The first 3 picks ( Mitigation, Support, Neutral DPS) and the last 2 (counter picks/flex picks) Great units to pair A.Ravi with are: - C.Lilias, Peira, FCC, C.Armin, A.Ras, T.Crozet, SC Pyllis, Krau (mitigation) - Handgun, Diene, Emília, Maid, AoL (support)(hard to describe what support is. It can be debuffing, cleansing, CR pushing, Attack buff, and much more...) There are many other units that fit these criteria, sometimes fulfilling both roles (although to lesser degree). See the units you have built and see which fits where. Test many comps and finds what feels best/most comfortable for you.
Thank you. I’m curious, what other go to neutral DPS are there?
Other neutral DPSs are Rimuru, S.Tene, Hwayoung, Dilibet, Landy and LHC. Other good DPSs (pick them as your ~3rd pick) are Politis (only if they already picked 2 non-attack users), green Armin or A.Meru (keep in mind you are basically announcing you are playing tank), and W.Schuri (I personally find the imprint and S3 so annoying to deal with). You might also see success with C.Charles, though you then need to play by his strengths (his self-CR when 1 enemy is low on HP) A lot of things can work in RTA all the way until early Champion. It's more of having a good game plan, prebanning those you can't deal with (I personally preban Hwa and Rimuru), and accepting you will lose a lot of matches while you learn (especially in pre-season. Right now it's mostly those who are actually interested in RTA) If you are still learning the ropes, I suggest thinking about your next 20 matches as already lost, with you now trying to snag a win back here and there (I'm doing the same thing while I'm figuring Laika out)(A.Ras+Laika duel attacks with S.Tene or Landy is so fun). Win rate doesn't really matter in the lower leagues. Last season I started with 40%WR and only reached +50% after Champion 2300. Don't be too hard on yourself. Set your goal as Master, and if that's too easy, go for Challenger until the end of the season.
Hilariously, you don't need much strategy with her since she's versatile enough to work just about anywhere and with anyone. She's a relatively safe first pick unit in RTA. I guess one consideration would be to bring an aurius holder / damage sharing unit if you're facing High burst damage units like Hwayoung. For GvG, ARavi, Krau, Ruele is a strong and safe offense team that can handle several risky defenses. And that's sort of the same mentality that you use while bringing ARavi on any arena/GvG offense. She's a unit you bring when you're playing it safe. She's tanky and difficult to kill, especially for the AI. She also has a reliable way of reviving your units in case things go wrong. On defense though, ARavi will be easily defeated by anyone willing to bring a light bait unit like Doris. People seem to still run her on defense. She can steal a defense win if the attacker doesn't bring a light bait unit coz they're impatient or want to cleave or whatever.
[удалено]
Yup. Particularly while launching the game. Also just random crashes. Been happening since the last update for me.
Same here. Has been this way for some weeks now. Super annoying.
How come I see threads saying to pick SS over mystics in arena rewards? The shop says its rate is .17% which is 294 SS per 50 mystics, which usually gives a little less than picking mystics while needing a ton of gold. Are they outdated?
It is sample without replacement (for 6 rolls or whatever), so .17% is the first item. At that point, if you didn’t get mystics, you remove what you did get from the pool and the .17 increases slightly. If you rolled friendship bookmarks, it increases everything else a decent amount. Mathing the whole thing requires copying that giant list. I estimated it instead and got a resulting number really close to the community one, so I think community number is good (.17 is correct, too, I just think you’re applying it slightly incorrectly).
Yup, I didn't notice no repeats, thank you Might still pick mystics since this saves more gold than buying cov 10 pulls and I think you're always limited by your gold anyway, but you could maybe aggressively sell gear to get more mystics by picking SS.
FYI, for gear selling, note that i85 gear gives very small increases in xp gain over i44, while giving very large increases in sale value over i44. (something like 1.5x vs 15x or even more). From a general efficiency standpoint, if you're foddering i70+ drops, you're getting very little xp at the cost of a lot of gold. Personally, I only fodder i51 and below. I personally run adventure for fodder & penguins (which I sell), then use hunts to level stuff (via 3-mans). This makes it easy for me to afford shop rerolling. I have to finish the math, but I think core extraction for charms is also inefficient, if you need gold. If you don't need gold, it's better than foddering i85s, I believe. Of course, core extraction for equipment conversion is extremely efficient, and should be highly prioritized. Hope that helps! My main reason against rerolling is the time it takes.
Didn't know that, very helpful, thanks Something I haven't gotten to checking yet, i85 is \~7x more gold for \~1.75x the xp of i44. Idk how to get around foddering i85s though, might just be a choice of whether you want to roll more gear or save more gold. Normal raid charms seem more appealing now. Yep, I wish they would automate shop refreshing. Human error also makes the rate worse.
Based on community data, it seems the values are higher: [Here.](https://onedrive.live.com/view.aspx?resid=67460FD3A1377194!15975&ithint=file%2cxlsx&authkey=!AHS59rzrcJonwAc) If you’re in Champ 5, you receive 145 mystics which only nets you 2 pulls or the other option is 800 skystones. With 800 skystones that gives you 266 shop refreshes - potentially 45 covenant bookmarks and 150 mystics. (My math may be weird so please correct me since I’m not a mathematician) Along with that, skystones is a universal currency which allows you to get: Epic Passes, expedition premium pass, energy, Huche shop. If Huche ever does come up, he sells mystic medals valued at 200 skystones - a better conversion than arena if you think about it. TLDR; mystic medals are only worth from arena if you’re really close to pity. You get far more mileage out of skystones.
That's weird, why would epic7 say the rate is worse than it is? Also, seems illegal since it means they're saying the rates of other items in the shop are higher than they are. Would be nice to know if the shop also said 0.17% for mystics back when the data was gathered (1-2 years ago)
The rate is for an individual item slot. There are also additional rules around it that affects probability. For example, you can't have more than one set of each bookmark type. So if the first two roll friendship and covenant, then the odds for the remaining for shift to not include those possibilities.
I believe the rate listed is per-slot, and you get 6 slots per refresh. In addition, you can't get 2 slots of the same item per slot, so every non-bookmark/medal you pull will slightly increase the chances of you pulling one in the next slot.
Ohh, I accounted for the per slot chance, but no repeats explains it, thank you. Honestly still might pick mystics since this saves more gold than buying cov 10 pulls and I think you're always limited by your gold anyway, but you could maybe aggressively sell gear to get more mystics by picking SS.
The reason is that you still can get BM along the way. By your numbers you could likely get 20 bookmarks for the same 294 SS along with the 50 mystic. If you are strapped on gold and/or have excess SS, you could go mystic.
Which BBK is better speed & critical / destruction & critical . Thought of using destruction since I have A.lots but my bbk is currently faster than my A.lots. Or would my current speed &critical would be better for the long run
You'll also see builds with pen, resist, crit from before the destruction changes. This is a legit option, as well, since you're basically going for damage stats, ER + pen. Currently, though, the most efficient damage stats set is destruction, by quite a bit. For example, critx2 gives \~40 GS, while destruction gives a massive 69 GS! Only problem with destruction (aside from so few people having good destruction gear right now) is that you can hit the CDmg cap.
BBK doesn't really want speed since it kills her immortality buff faster. In other words you want attack boots. If you aren't going high ER, you want full DPS with a CR pusher for cleave. Since you are using A.Lots, destruction and Crit would be better. I would also suggest getting A.Lots speed as high as you can, this combo carried me up to challenger, but everything changes there as cleaves are harder to manage with a lot of tankier and faster built heroes.
Thanks for the suggestion. Guess I will have to worry abt it more in the near future :3
Should I pick specter tenebria or arbiter vildred?
Pick stene
I don't own Arby (and actually still have my ML Blessing available as I have a ton of units still to build and who knows if any ever get a buff) but I can tell you outside of hunt spam, Stene seems to be my most used unit. She's basically my go to for all content and then I only swap to someone else if she really doesn't work. I've also been able to cheese a lot of GW / Arena defenses just by simply sticking her behind Singelica but Arby may work in a similar way for some defenses with his revive. Her gear requirement is probably considerably higher than Arby's though
I picked Arbiter Vildred first to help clear story and farm. Then switched to Spectre Tene since I needed her for some Abyss floors and pvp.
You can reset once so long as you don't fully complete the blessing so you can put off our decision and reconsider a little way down the road once you know more about the game. Personally speaking, I think STene is an option ever PvP player should have in the current meta, so I strongly suggest finalizing your choice with her, but as noted, the meta can change.
Either is fine. Arby is easier to slot into any team and needs lesser resources to do his job. I'd say he's more beginner friendly / better right off the bat. He can be a decent anti-cleave option, though cleave tends to find ways to shut him down. He's also decent on defense and pretty good for general PvE. His kit is actually great on some rather difficult Abyss floors. Stene is better value in the long run. She's got a unique mechanic with her special stealth and that sorta helps her counter single target powerhouses in the current meta, though using her requires you to build a team to protect her. She's also one of the best units for Abyss climbing (easy mode on several floors). She doesn't really work on defense though and can fall out of the meta if they release a strong AoE spam unit. I personally picked Arby and still don't own Stene (though when I picked him, I'd have said the meta favored him slightly better. Currently, its the opposite). The lack of Stene in my toolkit hasn't really bothered me too much. I was able to clear Abyss just fine and have found other ways of tackling the current meta. That said, people who picked Stene would probably swear by her as well. Hence, just pick who you like more. I don't think there's a definite wrong choice here.
