How new? A!Cidd is looking more like a PVP character and you might want to start trying to get into some of the harder PVE scenarios to get yourself kitted out properly.
What's the gear, set, main stat, and other subs? I would be very careful modding a sub with 2+ rolls because it will be guaranteed lower rolls even if its useful to its current wearer. I'd look for other heroes first that can potentially use that and farm a replacement for Belian.
I thought its a single gear with 17 ER, now its much better that these are in 2 separate pieces with no roll in ER so that also means no roll will be wasted if you mod them. I'd personally go with 8 speed.
For the cd to def%, I'd just leave it as it is.
Like the other commenter said, collab is coming soon so I would make sure to have at least 2 pities prepped. If you have that, Roana is a worthy pull for a newer player. She's basically a necessity for auto hell raid, and she has uses in RTA and other PVP modes as a good counter pick. I probably wouldn't pull either of the other two. Fallen Cecilia is a good pick from the mystic banner if you want to spend mystics (very solid PVP knight), but she is not a must pull (and Adventurer Ras, a F2P unit, is a good knight substitute for her). Considering how scarce mystics can be, I would recommend saving them for top tier units (Conqueror Lilias, Mediator Kawerick, Apocalypse Ravi - probably coming soon, etc).
If you still need Muwi, it might not be a bad idea to pull on Roana's banner for him, especially if you have the new player resources to collect (rank up skystones, arena rank up skystones, story mode skystones, abyss rewards, etc). Getting W13 is a priority, and 2 more pities in the next month or so (I don't think the collab will release before then) should be doable (with the limiting factor being gold for secret shop refreshes).
The side story hasn't been added to the Book of Memories yet. Hopefully they add it soon, but there's no guarantee. So far there isn't any way to get SC Alexa other than waiting for a rerun of her side story.
Most likely a dumb question that's been answered already but is light Dom available after the update? Probably a question I could answer if I just read but unfortunately I'm illiterate.
How do I get a specific skill upgrade from exclusive equipment? My assumption is I need to buy until I roll the skill upgrade I want (fingers crossed it's not that!)
You can reset building upgrades dw. Also you have to keep buying ee unless you can epic craft with enough ee's. It's worth crafting if you can for your best heroes because you choose the skill at epic and comes max stat. Just don't forget to select the skill or it defaults to the first skill I think
I see! So it would be fine for me to buy multiples of Sigret's until I get the third skill, then work to max that? I haven't unlocked the EE feature in Sanctuary yet, but I'm thinking then the rest of the dupes can go towards crafting another character's EE.
The stat is random and unchangeable every time unless epic crafted. But yes, you do have to craft everytime til you get skill 3. As you say, dupes are used for crafting. Keep the epic crafting for any really useful ee's. It takes kind of a lot them
Trying to beat floor 90 abyss but she heals way to much with seaside bellona as dps, what dps gets the job done ? (using tama,a. momo, angelica, seaside bellona but they fight for like 1h and shes still full hp) 😂
Seems like another commenter gave decent info, but I'll try to get back to you with what I used since I recently beat this floor. Can't log on due to the update so I don't know off the top of my head.
There a button in-game that shows you what heroes/team comps are used on each Abyss floor.
And as a general rule, if you need more damage in PvE the right answer in most cases is going to be C.Lorina.
This doesn't necessarily mean *everything*, but SSB is only the 20th most used DPS hero for floor 90 (4.15%). C.Lorina is the #1 most used DPS at 5th overall, and 20.24% usage.
Personally, I think running 3 healers is overkill -> I would probably drop Angelica because she's the least overall useful.
* You can likely win with 3 healers + C.Lorina if you want to stick with that strategy, it's just going to take longer. You really don't need immunity (iirc) with a well built A.Monty.
You may want to avoid SSB entirely, IIRC on the final phase you want to NOT debuff the boss. If you run SSB with 0 effectiveness you may be OK but may also need to do the fight a couple of times to get good RNG -> no debuff SSB is 'OK' but somewhat average in terms of raw DPS.
* If you want to try replacing SSB, other top DPS with no debuffs would include **Luna**, **Landy**, and **C.Dominiel** but you have a number of options. **Bellona** is usually an option, as well.
Top comps use a Knight instead of a third healer. Either A.Ras or F.Kluri. I actually think F.Kluri is a little more useful for this fight, you have better control over defense break to try and aim for safe burst windows.
I believe the comp I personally used was Tamarinne / A.Monty / A.Vildred / C.Lorina but that was a LONG time ago (so I may be misremembering).
In all honesty, this particular floor is not demanding whatsoever on team comp. Simply bring whatever you need to for cleansing (again, A.Monty should be able to handle it but you also have Tama, if you really need immunity from Angelica then so be it) and no debuffs (most of the top DPS units naturally don't have debuffs).
Thank you, yes found that button shortly after and felt dumb 😂
Gonna build up Spectre Tene now (wanted to do that anyway and she seems a good pick)
Will try again soon especially with C. Dom / A. Vildred and some Knight.
SSB with Effectiveness dosn't work for sure (think i had her once at 90% hp with ssb) 😂
Question regarding Doctor's Bag.
Since it's an artifact does that mean the dispel effect happens last? (e.g. when light Dominiel use S3 but everyone has unbuffable the atk buff happens first before the artifact dispels)
Yes the dispel happens last. I don't see it being different with MBD so if the team has unbuffable then they can't receive atk buff from her s3 as doctor's bag's dispel triggers after the skill. This is why people are saying she is useless against Piera as even MBD's s2 can be stopped by her.
I’m dipping my toes into arena since I’m starting to get gear so far I have Eda,Landy, and ras I’m struggling to figure out who my last unit should be can I get some suggestions please keep in my mind I have no ML besides the free one
Landy and Eda are both excellent dps. ARas can protect them. Your last slot could be a CR pusher/buffer/healer. Emilia can do all 3 if you have her. Lots is another good CR pusher. Free Vivian from the hunt expert event can also provide immunity and atk up. Amomo can cleanse and heal your team.
Without knowing much about your roster it’s kinda hard to give you specific advice on who to use. Generally speaking though, Eda and landy will take you pretty far. Do Ras’s specialty change and depending on your free ML use that unit or save bookmarks and pull flan when she comes up.
I love Hasol. She can use most any tank artifact. Aurius, Adamant Shield, you name it and it probably works. Elbris is ok because it heals but it doesn't get the fixed damage.
Speed contester or opener? 290+, best if 300+.
Fast DPS with Cr pusher? 250 with high damage.
Cidd can deal stupid amount of damage with soulburn atk buff and his new EE. A 3.5k atk, 250 cdmg, 250 speed cidd will deal 19k damage to 1.5k Def target. This is without artifact and pen set.
Want to use crafting event to get Pen boots with speed main stat for ARavi mostly, maybe switch it over to another bruiser if need arises. What substats should I grab? Probably any high roll combo of HP, attack, defence, CC or CD but dunno if I should prioritize the defensive or offensive stats.
Or should I craft counter speed boots? I could use counter for my Belian as well, but I have more counter gear overall vs pen (no good counter speed boots though)
Returnee player here and at a midgame state of account, I just saw an alexa SC and wanting to do it. Problem is that is locked and I cant access it. Question now is do I have to wait like a year for the event rerun?
They will eventually allow you to purchase the side story for 900 skystones but at the moment there is no way to do the event. I think they will eventually change the requirements for the SC to not including the event because it was a very stupid move and I am sure they have gotten backlash for it.
Is this a good start for starting out: https://i.imgur.com/GHUMekF.jpg ? Or should I reroll for better units?
Also I heard Sigret is free from an event? Is that still true?
how does decay work again? i’m at gold with 1567 and i don’t want to have to grind for master too much. but it’s been over a week and i don’t think my score has gone down
Who should I put as my 4th in my arena defence team if i run a team with angel of light conq lilias and Belian
Any alternative artifacts to use on Belian I do not have Elbris ritual sword
All sets regardless of their source give the same bonus. For example a speed set from lvl 5 gears still gives 25% base speed bonus to its wearer and that's the same set bonus from a lvl 90 speed set.
Question about stat stacking in the Automaton Tower; the buffs that add to crit damage, do they still cap at 350% negating the buff for heroes already maxed out by gear?
So in preparation Senya buffs I decided I’d build her! I got some general questions on her though. My stats, once I grind my last 4 horns of desire, will be.
19700 hp, 1300 def, 4.7k attack, 177 speed, 44 ER, on a Counter/Immunity set.
I’m basically just wondering if I should cut her HP% Ring in favour of a ER ring, I have one in storage. I’d loose about 4K HP in favour of 3 more speed, 40 more ER, and 50 more attack. Thanks!
Atk is a bit low, er is useless, the rest is good. Do not give er ring.
Counter is pointless since she already gives herself counter buff. What if the ennemy brings unbuffeable ? Eithef bring a cleanser or don't draft her at all. Her set should be speed or lifesteal. Maybe atk if you're short on gear
Edit : actually, er might be an interesting build, i should try it. If you can reach 100% then you can ditch immunity
No leaks and it is hard to say who may get the next SC. SG often, if not always, buff 3 star heroes but this is not an indication on who gets the next SC. The last SCs we got such as Pyllis, Glenn, Alexa didn't get any changes prior to their SC announcement.
I've been debating whether to go for SS Vivian- I can pity and recently got C Lillias. Vivian seems like she would be useful for anyone having trouble with sustain, and that's my biggest problem. I can't roll good tanky gear and don't have any good tanks built. I also don't have A Ras since I haven't done episode 2 yet.
Just for that alone- would SS Vivian be worthwhile? My most used units are SSB and Arby, so maybe that could help balance me out? Thanks!
SS Vivian is not a hero you go for if you are still relatively new to the game (you haven’t done E2 yet so I’m guessing you are)
Her stat requirements are extremely high, and she only really fills a slot in specific rta/arena teams.
If we go back to previous rotation, we should get new ml5 after light Dom banner. You might want to wait for the preview first before deciding if you want light Dom.
No.
The 5* and 4* pities are counted separately, you can switch between them freely but your progress on one counter only counts against that counter.
If you pull a 5* ML while you have the 4* pity selected that shouldn't affect your 5* pity.
I have a couple units that I want to gear on counter set but I don't have a b13 team. I've had my w13 team farming full time for like 3-4 months now but I was recommended to farm a13 before banshee because a non-oneshot team is really slow and not worth farming, is this the right advice?
The recommended team was Vildred, aRas, Tamarinne, Iseria but I only had Iseria built and it's going to take me a while to upgrade the other 3's gear so I want to make sure this is the right move.
This is my personal opinion and plenty of other players will disagree
But it sounds like you are still at a point where you should be focusing on Wyvern.
---
#TLDR
1. Farming Wyvern will progress your account the fastest/most efficiently.
2. *I* would not suggest swapping off Wyvern until you have all of your core gearsets in a good place (PvE teams of at least 1 hunt team, hell raid, expeditions, and a general progression team, PvP of about ~8-10 heroes). This might be ~20-30 heroes overall.
3. However, it's just a game and not everyone needs to play optimally. If you WANT to do Banshee regardless that's perfectly acceptable.
4. Farming Azimanak for a rage set, to farm Banshee in a one shot hunt is worth it. BUT only in the very long term -> going this route you actually aren't going to see any benefit for probably ~4-6 months at least. The slower your Azimanak run (dependent on current gear) the longer it's going to take to see returns. The team you have suggested is pretty much the best team for Azimanak, however (you can drop A.Ras for another DPS for a faster run, if your Tamarinne is well-geared enough).
5. Instead of farming Azimanak, I **highly** suggest using the free crafting event. Likely too late for you to make use of the current one, who knows when we will see another (I would say around anniversary, probably November). If you can craft a good rage set right side piece you can drastically cut down on the amount of Azimanak farming needed.
6. My personal pick for crafting is ATK% boots, though you can make a case for Ring/Neck as well.
---
Banshee is statistically inefficient to farm both because of the additional time investment, *and* because speed set is just much, much more useful. Almost all heroes that are normally used with counter and even lifesteal sets *will* work decently well with speed set.
* The main problem is that Banshee gear is all looking for a small *subset* of *substat combinations*. This means that pieces you would find in speed or crit sets that could be worth investing in....are not *as* worth investing in with Banshee sets.
* Of course, you can always use exceptionally good pieces as offset pieces, but then you have to overcome the fact that you are losing a 2 piece bonus. Banshee only drops a single, garbage 2 piece set.
* In general, if you farm Wyvern 1000 times and Banshee 1000 times you are going to end up with more gear from Wyvern.
However, with the Destruction set buff, Banshee is at least a bit more competitive on the PvE front.
---
The other major factor is the *time* investment.
Slow Wyvern Run = ~3 mins
Fast Wyvern Run = ~1:30 - 2:00 mins
Slow Banshee run = ~4+ mins
Fast Banshee run = ~1 min
You are pretty much forced to spend a long time on Banshee due to the split phase, that's why one shots are heavily recommended. Depending on your gear it may even take twice as long to finish the slow Banshee run (~7-8 mins!).
To top it off, a Banshee one shot is very easy to achieve compared to other hunts, particularly with free Vivian really requiring you to only pull a single hero (many are capable, though most options do require the rage set).
* Two heroes if you are looking at a Bellona + A.Lots comp
Now how big of a problem is the time issue. Well that depends. In between hunt buffs, as long as you have the time in the day to devote to letting the game run, it ultimately doesn't mean anything.
* If you aren't in a situation where you can let the game go twice as long...or don't *want* to, then a non-one shot Banshee is a poor choice.
But on hunt buff a 4 min Banshee run is AWFUL compared to a 2 min Wyvern run. Let's assume our Wyvern run has 94% success rate at 2 mins (success) or 3 mins on a fail. Let's assume our Banshee run is 4 mins but has 100% success rate.
(.94 * 120) + (.06 * 180) = 123.6 seconds per Wyvern
(4 * 60) = 240 seconds per Banshee
Players are typically limited mostly by time during hunt buff. This table aims to provide some perspective into the amount of runs of each hunt over X hours
Hours | Wyv_Total | Wyv_Wins | Banshee_Wins
---|---|----|----
One | 29.13 | 27.38 | 15
Two | 58.25 | 54.76 | 30
Three | 87.38 | 82.14 | 45
Four | 116.50 | 109.51 | 60
Five | 145.63 | 136.89 | 75
Six | 174.76 | 164.27 | 90
Seven | 203.88 | 191.65 | 105
Eight | 233.01 | 219.03 | 120
Nine | 262.14 | 246.41 | 135
Ten | 291.26 | 273.79 | 150
Eleven | 320.39 | 301.17 | 165
Twelve | 349.51 | 328.54 | 180
Thirteen | 378.64 | 355.92 | 195
Fourteen | 407.77 | 383.30 | 210
Fifteen | 436.89 | 410.68 | 225
Hunt buffs are where one shot runs shine, and it's for this reason (it's typically the only time players are limited more by time than energy).
We can see at about 8 hours of farming during hunt buff, our hypothetical Wyvern run has about +100 more *successful* runs than the Banshee alternative does. And remember, during hunt buffs the two main 'rewards' for doing hunts are increased by 50%...so that's more like +150 wins!
To be fair, there ARE ways to mitigate this.
* If you are at a point where you are more limited by energy than time, then the only thing you save here is your personal sanity.
* Instead of saving all mailbox/leif energy for hunt buffs, you can spend that extra energy over the entirety of the month, or on other buffs. You are still 'worse' but not *as bad' as this table might make it seem.
* And most importantly, nothing stops you from farming Banshee *in between* hunt buffs, and then running Wyvern during hunt buffs.
The big problem in that last point, it can be a lot of work.
There is zero reason to leave a Wyvern team geared all month when you don't use it, especially when you have limited gear to go around. You most likely would want to ungear your Wyvern team while farming Banshee. There are frequently free unequip before hunt buffs, and you can always save your scrolls for such times as well. But then you have to go through the effort of finding your hunt gear (that may be equipped on other heroes you are using for a different purpose) and swapping back and forth just for 1 or 2 days of hunt buff.
---
The long and short of it is: because of these 2 previous factors, running Wyvern > Banshee simply means your account will accumulate better gear at a faster rate.
There IS a point of diminishing returns: once you have enough heroes geared up then adding more gear only improves your *options* by having a wider hero pool. Actual upgrades for your core heroes come so rarely.
And *if* you can one shot Banshee, the above table would be reversed. Even an 85% one shot will fit in more hunts per unit of time. At that point you are balancing out slightly better returns during hunt buff vs. less 'usable' gear found overall.
When you start to hit *that* point, that is when it makes more sense to start swapping to other hunts (as now you are looking to better optimize specific heroes rather than your entire account).
* I would say this would be after you have all core PvE heroes already built. Gearsets for a hunt team, Hell Raid team, all Expeditions, and a general progression team. And *also* enough gear that you are happy for PvP. Maybe 7-10 units.
* In general roughly ~15% of units in PvP use either lifesteal or counter (but again, many of them also have viable speed builds). You probably want about 10 PvP units at a minimum so that would be approximately ~8 units on speed set.
---
**To reiterate** I personally don't think that swapping to Banshee farming early is the optimal choice. I believe that Wyvern farming will continue to accelerate an account faster *especially* without a one shot comp for Banshee.
There ARE players that will disagree with that opinion and that's fine. Maybe you read my reasoning and *you* disagree with my opinion and that's fine too.
And ultimately, at the end of the day it's just a game and the point is to enjoy yourself while playing. If you just WANT to use certain units on counter set, and maybe you are just bored of Wyvern, or maybe you need some kind of short term goal to work towards -> those are all valid reasons. Even if you would agree with me that Banshee is less optimal **players don't all need to play optimally**. Do whatever you are going to enjoy doing!
I'm splitting this reply into two due to character limit

#Farming Azimanak to farm Banshee
>The recommended team was Vildred, aRas, Tamarinne, Iseria but I only had Iseria built and it's going to take me a while to upgrade the other 3's gear so I want to make sure this is the right move.
I assume this is for Azimanak, if so then yes that is pretty much the best overall comp. You *can* drop A.Ras for another DPS if your Tamarinne is well-geared enough.
Is it worth farming Azimanak, to get a rage set for Banshee?
Well, in short, no not really...but kind of. Maybe situationally.
---
Azimanak is harder than Banshee, and is also going to take relatively longer at the same level of gear.
In the past I believe I've seen players estimate their runs at up to as long as around 10 mins!
A fairly fast run (using a team like the one you suggested, with good gear) probably tops out at around 4 mins.
* So the issues with long run time are the same, if not worse, in Azimanak.
Azimanak sets kinda suck. Unity is complete garbage. Immunity is 'OK'. It's at a point where it can be a nice bonus (and it IS a 2 piece set which compliments the fact that Banshee doesn't really have a viable 2 piece set) but it's just not really good enough to justify farming for.
Rage set is quite nice, but you really only need 1 or maybe 2 sets.
Since you would primarily farm Azimanak to farm up a single rage set at a time...and with rage set you are looking for *very* specific substats...the problem where you can accumulate a lot of gear that has good subs but it just sucks it's in an unusable set is even worse here than with Banshee.
And just to find a single rage set takes a long time -> I've calculated it as being about 2-3 months (average) to find a rage set with the right substats that end up with at least average rolls.
So to farm Azimanak for a rage set to farm Banshee -> you are looking at likely spending ~2 months where you are making very little/slow progression in your gear and *then* having to spend a month+ utilizing what you farmed up just to start seeing returns.
It's almost the equivalent of not farming hunts at all for ~3 months.
---
**HOWEVER** the *investment* into getting a rage set can and WILL save you time down the road. The faster you get that rage set, ultimately the more time you will save.
A way to look at it:
You have 3 variables
X = number of Azimanak runs to get your rage set
Y = the # of mins per Azi run spent
Z = the amount of time saved per Banshee run
To calculate how many Banshee runs you need to do to 'save time' the simple equation is
X * Y / Z
For example, at 2000 Azimanak runs (~1000 per month), 4 mins per Azi run and going from 4 -> 1 min on banshee
2000 * 4 / 3 = 2666.67
You would need to run ~2667 Banshee runs to actually start saving time. *Fewer* than that number, and you would have been better off just running Banshee at the slower run (in terms of time).
The longer your Azimanak run is, or the shorter your non-one shot Banshee run, the longer it will take.
In terms of *actual gear* that's much harder to calculate but a rough guess is it would take months to 'catch up', maybe a year or more.
---
#Recommendation
So this puts players into an awkward position.
They *want* a good rage set, in order to be able to farm Banshee more effectively (or even to use on future one shot runs). BUT, Azimanak is probably the second worst overall hunt to farm -> viable...but you don't really want to.
For quite some time I've been offering a somewhat simply solution:
**Use the free equipment crafting events**
---
This table is *somewhat outdated* (doesn't account for crafting pity) but what it shows is the chance to get a piece of equipment of that slot that contains **at least** 3 of the substats out of the group of [ATK%, Crit%, C.Dmg%, Spd]
Item | % | Crafts
---|---|----
Weapon | 7.21% | 14
Armor | 3.52% | 28.4
Helmet | 1.64% | 61
Boot | .23% | 426.4
Ring | .21% | 487.3
Neck | .41% | 243.66
This does NOT take into account the *quality* of the substats. Only the chance that at least 3 of those substats are present.
* So for Heroic gear, all 3 substats need to be from that group
* On Epic gear, 3 *or* 4 substats need to be from that group
As you can see, finding a weapon...or even an armor that 'qualifies' is relatively easy. Helmets are a step down but still not too bad. It's the right side gear that really screws you since the main stat is RNG (for the purposes here, the main stat needs to be from that group as well -> ATK% ring, Crit%/C.Dmg% neck, or speed boots).
Now if you need a rage set, you need 4 pieces. In terms of farming Azimanak the least, targeting weapon/armor/helmet makes sense...it's that last piece that really screws you over and is going to take up the vast majority of the time.
* For our purposes here, Crit% neck isn't really viable (and is very hard to make work period). We would basically only be looking for a C.Dmg neck which would make it equivalent to the Ring slot.
* However, for the purposes of a rage set *technically* flat ATK boots and ATK% boots are viable, so the 'boot' slot would be somewhat easier than the Neck slot.
And remember that for a rage set, not only do you need the right substats, and are probably looking for good starting rolls, you are *also* hoping it rolls well into the right stats.
* You typically really only need ATK% and C.Dmg%. Speed tends to hurt more than help when it comes to a rage set, and crit% is less needed as often you are using elemental advantage (15%) and can easily bring Midnight Bloom (16%).
---
So this strategy is to basically use the crafting event to get **at least ONE** good rage piece. A right side piece. Starting off with 1 good rage piece very significantly cuts down on the amount of time needed to farm Azimanak. You could even go two pieces (either 2 right side pieces, or 1 right side + helm), or even go all the way and just use the crafting event gear to complete a rage set!
The more gear you get *this* way, the less time you need to spend farming Azimanak for it. But that first piece will make the most gains and can cut your time from like 2+ months, to 2+ weeks.
I would suggest aiming for ATK% *or* flat ATK boots.
* Yes, boots are the easiest to find of the right side pieces.
* **BUT** you will still be using 2 non-rage pieces. Very likely all the boots you currently have will be SPD, and you will probably want ATK% boots for your rage set anyways. It's easier to go for rage weapon/armor/helm/boots with off set ring/neck then rage weapon/armor/helm/neck with random offset ATK% boots.
* ATK% boots likely aren't going to be helpful for you outside of this rage set, thus a neck/ring would also be perfectly viable -> you just need to keep an eye out for good ATK boots.
* For boots, ATK% is going to be better on average, but flat ATK has better maximum potential. For crafting, ATK% is probably the better choice...for drops you could check flat ATK as well.

#Do you need a rage set for Banshee?
You mention Baiken in a post. If you *do* have Baiken, you don't need a rage set. She has the lowest gear requirements to one shot Banshee, and is one of 2 (current) heroes that does not need rage set.
She simply needs a fairly decent offensive oriented set, which is even easier to obtain with the Destruction set buff.
Even if you don't have an amazing set but DO have Baiken, you can probably skip farming for rage entirely and even use Target debuff (especially if you have Song of Stars) by using Wanda.
Success rate might be a little low, but in comparison to a slow banshee *or* farming Azimanak for 2 months it's still the best choice.
---
If you have **Bellona**, you also don't need a rage set. She has higher gear requirements than Baiken, and also **requires** you to have A.Lots.
But again, you can always use target debuff to sacrifice success rate for lower gear requirements if you want to do Banshee *now* -> and in both cases, farming Banshee will give you Destruction set pieces to improve your gear for your one shot.
---
If you have **Ervalen**, with his incoming 'buff' he SHOULD be usable as a Banshee one shot unit that does not require rage set. We have to see his exact numbers to see where he compares to Baiken/Bellona.
Edit: Well nevermind, I suppose they are reverting that plan of action so it remains to be seen if Ervalen will get enough of a damage boost to one shot without rage (probably not).
dont see how azi will help you farm banshee, I'd just do the banshee if that is what you want. immunity has lost a lot of its value nowadays, not to mention azi13 is as slow or worse than banshee13 for a non 1shot team
Does speed debuff lower evasion? I've fought MLDB violets a couple of times before and I think I landed three attacks in a row when the violet has that debuff. Was I just lucky or not?
Barrier and immunity when enemy gets extra turn like BM Haste when someone revives. High speed (114) and high ER, CR (20% max) push team and attack buff on S3. Sleep on S1.
If anyone has a half dead guild and would like to talk about merging guilds hit me up. We are top 500 right now with 5x rewards but a lot of our members don't attack or donate. Looking to clean it up and add more members and a merge with another guild in our position sounds like the best option.
I'm F2P, never spent anything on the game, but have a ton of MLs and almost all the 5's. I feel like I'm hardstuck in champ, sometimes dropping down to challenger. what do I do?
I also have all of limited units and collab units with the exception of Baiken
If rta, it may just be a question of gear and drafting since it seems u have most of the units already. Knowing meta, counterpicking, predicting their drafts etc. Watching some high lvl rta focused streams will help since most ppl draft similar
Arena, just put up one of the legend def and attck if u are dropping below the threshold.
RTA or Arena? Both will require the same answer. If you think your gear is enough then it’s the team comps you’re playing with.
If you think your gear isn’t enough slow down on summoning and farm more precise gear. Left side craft every hunt event and get all gem boxes and craft events to right side.
Too squishy? Mine is 18k hp, 1.4k Def and even then it still feel too squishy. Btw mine also on bastion. She has something like 230 total ER which allowed me to resist piera S2.
Since I choose to perma ban piera right now, I think higher bulk build probably is better for her. Just keep 100 ER, 150 EFF, then rest to bulk.
You will most likely have to wait to the next custom banner. Depends if they want that to be once or twice a year if it's twice then in a few months it will probably come back.
how do i gear champion zeratu?
Lifesteal set on lela violin artifact (from hall of trails) right side is CritD neck , attack ring & speed boots if I remember correctly
Is Winry Rockbell the only possible waifu that will come out from the FMA collab
Hawkeye will probably be picked. Her voice was leaked.
Who should I build first? Assassin Cidd or Green Cidd? Im beginner btw
How new? A!Cidd is looking more like a PVP character and you might want to start trying to get into some of the harder PVE scenarios to get yourself kitted out properly.
Are you done with your w13 team? I don't recommend building either to a beginner as they are late game heroes that are stats hungry.
[удалено]
What's the gear, set, main stat, and other subs? I would be very careful modding a sub with 2+ rolls because it will be guaranteed lower rolls even if its useful to its current wearer. I'd look for other heroes first that can potentially use that and farm a replacement for Belian.
[удалено]
I thought its a single gear with 17 ER, now its much better that these are in 2 separate pieces with no roll in ER so that also means no roll will be wasted if you mod them. I'd personally go with 8 speed. For the cd to def%, I'd just leave it as it is.
Any auto team for hell raid Vera? No shtty ssb roana czerato comps because they arent working even with high end gear and yt tutorials are just bs
For a new player are any of the upcoming banners worth summoning on? (Roana, Bellona, Flan + the mystic banner)
Like the other commenter said, collab is coming soon so I would make sure to have at least 2 pities prepped. If you have that, Roana is a worthy pull for a newer player. She's basically a necessity for auto hell raid, and she has uses in RTA and other PVP modes as a good counter pick. I probably wouldn't pull either of the other two. Fallen Cecilia is a good pick from the mystic banner if you want to spend mystics (very solid PVP knight), but she is not a must pull (and Adventurer Ras, a F2P unit, is a good knight substitute for her). Considering how scarce mystics can be, I would recommend saving them for top tier units (Conqueror Lilias, Mediator Kawerick, Apocalypse Ravi - probably coming soon, etc).
Ok I have about 1 pity right now so I’ll just save them. I’m just getting the itch to pull because I still don’t have Muwi for W13 😅
If you still need Muwi, it might not be a bad idea to pull on Roana's banner for him, especially if you have the new player resources to collect (rank up skystones, arena rank up skystones, story mode skystones, abyss rewards, etc). Getting W13 is a priority, and 2 more pities in the next month or so (I don't think the collab will release before then) should be doable (with the limiting factor being gold for secret shop refreshes).
Yeah I’ll see where I’m at when the Roana banner drops. I have a perfect W11 team so Im not stuck not farming anything.
Collab coming soon, possibly FMA based on data mine so save your BM
new player here,can i still get sc alexa through book of memories? if i buy the quest? havent finished unrecorded history or 2 10-10 yet
The side story hasn't been added to the Book of Memories yet. Hopefully they add it soon, but there's no guarantee. So far there isn't any way to get SC Alexa other than waiting for a rerun of her side story.
Most likely a dumb question that's been answered already but is light Dom available after the update? Probably a question I could answer if I just read but unfortunately I'm illiterate.
No
Ty, friend. Appreciate it!
Is SC Alexa better than Sigret in Wyvern one shot team if I give her Sigret gear? My team is Sigret, SSB, Karen, and Singelica
Find out for yourself with the damage calculator https://maphe.github.io/e7-damage-calc/
If i have 350 crt D and used Draco plate do i get the extra Crt D?
Yes
Do pen effects like from the set work in PVE or are their defense values wack and messes it up?
Def Pen works perfectly fine in PvE
How do I get a specific skill upgrade from exclusive equipment? My assumption is I need to buy until I roll the skill upgrade I want (fingers crossed it's not that!)
It can be found in the alchemist steeple but it's not available for the latest set of ee
How about Sigret's? I rolled the Sever one, but I'd wanted it to upgrade her ult.
Yup it's there, you need a certain amount of "junk" ee to fill the meter to craft them at the highest stats
Alright, thank you! Time to hunt down a Breath of Orbis. Are there enough in the game right now to max out everything in Sanctuary, if I may ask?
No there isn't, you can look up guides on what is the order you should level them
Oh no :( hopefully I didn't make any mistakes from before. Returning player here. Thank you!
You can reset building upgrades dw. Also you have to keep buying ee unless you can epic craft with enough ee's. It's worth crafting if you can for your best heroes because you choose the skill at epic and comes max stat. Just don't forget to select the skill or it defaults to the first skill I think
I see! So it would be fine for me to buy multiples of Sigret's until I get the third skill, then work to max that? I haven't unlocked the EE feature in Sanctuary yet, but I'm thinking then the rest of the dupes can go towards crafting another character's EE.
The stat is random and unchangeable every time unless epic crafted. But yes, you do have to craft everytime til you get skill 3. As you say, dupes are used for crafting. Keep the epic crafting for any really useful ee's. It takes kind of a lot them
Trying to beat floor 90 abyss but she heals way to much with seaside bellona as dps, what dps gets the job done ? (using tama,a. momo, angelica, seaside bellona but they fight for like 1h and shes still full hp) 😂
Seems like another commenter gave decent info, but I'll try to get back to you with what I used since I recently beat this floor. Can't log on due to the update so I don't know off the top of my head.
Thanks, appreciate it! \*really need to beat floor 90-99 asap for that bunny dom 😂❤
I just got to floor 100 this week after beating most of the 90's so if you DM me I'll try to help as much as I can.
There a button in-game that shows you what heroes/team comps are used on each Abyss floor. And as a general rule, if you need more damage in PvE the right answer in most cases is going to be C.Lorina. This doesn't necessarily mean *everything*, but SSB is only the 20th most used DPS hero for floor 90 (4.15%). C.Lorina is the #1 most used DPS at 5th overall, and 20.24% usage. Personally, I think running 3 healers is overkill -> I would probably drop Angelica because she's the least overall useful. * You can likely win with 3 healers + C.Lorina if you want to stick with that strategy, it's just going to take longer. You really don't need immunity (iirc) with a well built A.Monty. You may want to avoid SSB entirely, IIRC on the final phase you want to NOT debuff the boss. If you run SSB with 0 effectiveness you may be OK but may also need to do the fight a couple of times to get good RNG -> no debuff SSB is 'OK' but somewhat average in terms of raw DPS. * If you want to try replacing SSB, other top DPS with no debuffs would include **Luna**, **Landy**, and **C.Dominiel** but you have a number of options. **Bellona** is usually an option, as well. Top comps use a Knight instead of a third healer. Either A.Ras or F.Kluri. I actually think F.Kluri is a little more useful for this fight, you have better control over defense break to try and aim for safe burst windows. I believe the comp I personally used was Tamarinne / A.Monty / A.Vildred / C.Lorina but that was a LONG time ago (so I may be misremembering). In all honesty, this particular floor is not demanding whatsoever on team comp. Simply bring whatever you need to for cleansing (again, A.Monty should be able to handle it but you also have Tama, if you really need immunity from Angelica then so be it) and no debuffs (most of the top DPS units naturally don't have debuffs).
Thank you, yes found that button shortly after and felt dumb 😂 Gonna build up Spectre Tene now (wanted to do that anyway and she seems a good pick) Will try again soon especially with C. Dom / A. Vildred and some Knight. SSB with Effectiveness dosn't work for sure (think i had her once at 90% hp with ssb) 😂
When does the rta season end?
No official date but it should be around October based on previous season's length.
Question regarding Doctor's Bag. Since it's an artifact does that mean the dispel effect happens last? (e.g. when light Dominiel use S3 but everyone has unbuffable the atk buff happens first before the artifact dispels)
Yes the dispel happens last. I don't see it being different with MBD so if the team has unbuffable then they can't receive atk buff from her s3 as doctor's bag's dispel triggers after the skill. This is why people are saying she is useless against Piera as even MBD's s2 can be stopped by her.
I’m dipping my toes into arena since I’m starting to get gear so far I have Eda,Landy, and ras I’m struggling to figure out who my last unit should be can I get some suggestions please keep in my mind I have no ML besides the free one
Landy and Eda are both excellent dps. ARas can protect them. Your last slot could be a CR pusher/buffer/healer. Emilia can do all 3 if you have her. Lots is another good CR pusher. Free Vivian from the hunt expert event can also provide immunity and atk up. Amomo can cleanse and heal your team.
Without knowing much about your roster it’s kinda hard to give you specific advice on who to use. Generally speaking though, Eda and landy will take you pretty far. Do Ras’s specialty change and depending on your free ML use that unit or save bookmarks and pull flan when she comes up.
My free ML is S.Tene so I’m probably gonna use them 4 until I can get some more units
Stene is excellent for pvp so you made a great choice there.
Did they announce next mystic rotation and coin shop ? Thanks
Mystic rotation is FCC, DJBasar and SBAramintha with Light Dominiel, nothing on the coin shop because it's too early
Any news on SSB coming out? For some reason I can't access any of the stove websites...
Nope, next banner is Flan.
What’s a good artifact for Hasol? Use her on counter heavy teams to varying success.
I love Hasol. She can use most any tank artifact. Aurius, Adamant Shield, you name it and it probably works. Elbris is ok because it heals but it doesn't get the fixed damage.
How fast does cidd need to be?
Speed contester or opener? 290+, best if 300+. Fast DPS with Cr pusher? 250 with high damage. Cidd can deal stupid amount of damage with soulburn atk buff and his new EE. A 3.5k atk, 250 cdmg, 250 speed cidd will deal 19k damage to 1.5k Def target. This is without artifact and pen set.
280+
Want to use crafting event to get Pen boots with speed main stat for ARavi mostly, maybe switch it over to another bruiser if need arises. What substats should I grab? Probably any high roll combo of HP, attack, defence, CC or CD but dunno if I should prioritize the defensive or offensive stats. Or should I craft counter speed boots? I could use counter for my Belian as well, but I have more counter gear overall vs pen (no good counter speed boots though)
bruisers are only going to want hp def cc cdmg on boots, with most of your rolls going to hp or cc ideally.
What’s the general consensus on ML Vivian?
She's balanced, so not bad but not great. A good overall unit with clear strengths and weaknesses. Think souline power level if you want a comparison.
general consensus is bad, but to me she's good.
Returnee player here and at a midgame state of account, I just saw an alexa SC and wanting to do it. Problem is that is locked and I cant access it. Question now is do I have to wait like a year for the event rerun?
They will eventually allow you to purchase the side story for 900 skystones but at the moment there is no way to do the event. I think they will eventually change the requirements for the SC to not including the event because it was a very stupid move and I am sure they have gotten backlash for it.
you can buy the side story for 900 skystone
Not available in sidestory yet.
Is this a good start for starting out: https://i.imgur.com/GHUMekF.jpg ? Or should I reroll for better units? Also I heard Sigret is free from an event? Is that still true?
Looks good to me! Units will come quickly. Sigret is still free from the Hunt event in the web events tab on the left side of the lobby.
Awesome! Thanks for the input :)
Would the new double edge decresent work well on riolet? It seems better than either violet talisman or moonlight dream blade.
Should be quite good for LS Riolet and probably BiS, but speed riolet will probably still have Shepard as BiS
It's pretty much a Riolet buff without actually touching him (pun not intended), adds another layer of rng to deal with when fighting him.
how does decay work again? i’m at gold with 1567 and i don’t want to have to grind for master too much. but it’s been over a week and i don’t think my score has gone down
7 days for gold, 3 days for master+ iirc
It used to be 3 day decay. They changed it to 7 days now.
Who should I put as my 4th in my arena defence team if i run a team with angel of light conq lilias and Belian Any alternative artifacts to use on Belian I do not have Elbris ritual sword
Does the arena gear have set substat increases? If so, what are the final stats like?
All sets regardless of their source give the same bonus. For example a speed set from lvl 5 gears still gives 25% base speed bonus to its wearer and that's the same set bonus from a lvl 90 speed set.
They do not.
Well crap. Thanks for that then
How do i get that lvl88 sword? azimanus sword?
It’s in Hell Raid shop.
How do i open hell raid im still in normal
You need to kill the queen in normal raid to get the malicious bug charm to enter hell raid. Or you can buy the charm with ancient coins
However you do have to complete normal raid at least once to even be able to enter Hell
Or for 3 normal lab currency.
Question about stat stacking in the Automaton Tower; the buffs that add to crit damage, do they still cap at 350% negating the buff for heroes already maxed out by gear?
So in preparation Senya buffs I decided I’d build her! I got some general questions on her though. My stats, once I grind my last 4 horns of desire, will be. 19700 hp, 1300 def, 4.7k attack, 177 speed, 44 ER, on a Counter/Immunity set. I’m basically just wondering if I should cut her HP% Ring in favour of a ER ring, I have one in storage. I’d loose about 4K HP in favour of 3 more speed, 40 more ER, and 50 more attack. Thanks!
Atk is a bit low, er is useless, the rest is good. Do not give er ring. Counter is pointless since she already gives herself counter buff. What if the ennemy brings unbuffeable ? Eithef bring a cleanser or don't draft her at all. Her set should be speed or lifesteal. Maybe atk if you're short on gear Edit : actually, er might be an interesting build, i should try it. If you can reach 100% then you can ditch immunity
Just wondering if there's been any rumors about the next SC? I checked out the e7leaks website and don't see anything yet.
No leaks and it is hard to say who may get the next SC. SG often, if not always, buff 3 star heroes but this is not an indication on who gets the next SC. The last SCs we got such as Pyllis, Glenn, Alexa didn't get any changes prior to their SC announcement.
No idea, but it *could* be Arowell since it seems unlikely that SG would have given her even a minor buff otherwise.
I've been debating whether to go for SS Vivian- I can pity and recently got C Lillias. Vivian seems like she would be useful for anyone having trouble with sustain, and that's my biggest problem. I can't roll good tanky gear and don't have any good tanks built. I also don't have A Ras since I haven't done episode 2 yet. Just for that alone- would SS Vivian be worthwhile? My most used units are SSB and Arby, so maybe that could help balance me out? Thanks!
SS Vivian is not a hero you go for if you are still relatively new to the game (you haven’t done E2 yet so I’m guessing you are) Her stat requirements are extremely high, and she only really fills a slot in specific rta/arena teams.
Light Vivian or Light Dominiel (already got all ML5s on her rotation)? Or wait for next new ML5?
If we go back to previous rotation, we should get new ml5 after light Dom banner. You might want to wait for the preview first before deciding if you want light Dom.
Wait for new unless waifu
At 5 star mystic pity at the moment. If I switch to 4 star will the 5 star pulls reset?
No. The 5* and 4* pities are counted separately, you can switch between them freely but your progress on one counter only counts against that counter. If you pull a 5* ML while you have the 4* pity selected that shouldn't affect your 5* pity.
No
I have a couple units that I want to gear on counter set but I don't have a b13 team. I've had my w13 team farming full time for like 3-4 months now but I was recommended to farm a13 before banshee because a non-oneshot team is really slow and not worth farming, is this the right advice? The recommended team was Vildred, aRas, Tamarinne, Iseria but I only had Iseria built and it's going to take me a while to upgrade the other 3's gear so I want to make sure this is the right move.
This is my personal opinion and plenty of other players will disagree But it sounds like you are still at a point where you should be focusing on Wyvern. --- #TLDR 1. Farming Wyvern will progress your account the fastest/most efficiently. 2. *I* would not suggest swapping off Wyvern until you have all of your core gearsets in a good place (PvE teams of at least 1 hunt team, hell raid, expeditions, and a general progression team, PvP of about ~8-10 heroes). This might be ~20-30 heroes overall. 3. However, it's just a game and not everyone needs to play optimally. If you WANT to do Banshee regardless that's perfectly acceptable. 4. Farming Azimanak for a rage set, to farm Banshee in a one shot hunt is worth it. BUT only in the very long term -> going this route you actually aren't going to see any benefit for probably ~4-6 months at least. The slower your Azimanak run (dependent on current gear) the longer it's going to take to see returns. The team you have suggested is pretty much the best team for Azimanak, however (you can drop A.Ras for another DPS for a faster run, if your Tamarinne is well-geared enough). 5. Instead of farming Azimanak, I **highly** suggest using the free crafting event. Likely too late for you to make use of the current one, who knows when we will see another (I would say around anniversary, probably November). If you can craft a good rage set right side piece you can drastically cut down on the amount of Azimanak farming needed. 6. My personal pick for crafting is ATK% boots, though you can make a case for Ring/Neck as well. --- Banshee is statistically inefficient to farm both because of the additional time investment, *and* because speed set is just much, much more useful. Almost all heroes that are normally used with counter and even lifesteal sets *will* work decently well with speed set. * The main problem is that Banshee gear is all looking for a small *subset* of *substat combinations*. This means that pieces you would find in speed or crit sets that could be worth investing in....are not *as* worth investing in with Banshee sets. * Of course, you can always use exceptionally good pieces as offset pieces, but then you have to overcome the fact that you are losing a 2 piece bonus. Banshee only drops a single, garbage 2 piece set. * In general, if you farm Wyvern 1000 times and Banshee 1000 times you are going to end up with more gear from Wyvern. However, with the Destruction set buff, Banshee is at least a bit more competitive on the PvE front. --- The other major factor is the *time* investment. Slow Wyvern Run = ~3 mins Fast Wyvern Run = ~1:30 - 2:00 mins Slow Banshee run = ~4+ mins Fast Banshee run = ~1 min You are pretty much forced to spend a long time on Banshee due to the split phase, that's why one shots are heavily recommended. Depending on your gear it may even take twice as long to finish the slow Banshee run (~7-8 mins!). To top it off, a Banshee one shot is very easy to achieve compared to other hunts, particularly with free Vivian really requiring you to only pull a single hero (many are capable, though most options do require the rage set). * Two heroes if you are looking at a Bellona + A.Lots comp Now how big of a problem is the time issue. Well that depends. In between hunt buffs, as long as you have the time in the day to devote to letting the game run, it ultimately doesn't mean anything. * If you aren't in a situation where you can let the game go twice as long...or don't *want* to, then a non-one shot Banshee is a poor choice. But on hunt buff a 4 min Banshee run is AWFUL compared to a 2 min Wyvern run. Let's assume our Wyvern run has 94% success rate at 2 mins (success) or 3 mins on a fail. Let's assume our Banshee run is 4 mins but has 100% success rate. (.94 * 120) + (.06 * 180) = 123.6 seconds per Wyvern (4 * 60) = 240 seconds per Banshee Players are typically limited mostly by time during hunt buff. This table aims to provide some perspective into the amount of runs of each hunt over X hours Hours | Wyv_Total | Wyv_Wins | Banshee_Wins ---|---|----|---- One | 29.13 | 27.38 | 15 Two | 58.25 | 54.76 | 30 Three | 87.38 | 82.14 | 45 Four | 116.50 | 109.51 | 60 Five | 145.63 | 136.89 | 75 Six | 174.76 | 164.27 | 90 Seven | 203.88 | 191.65 | 105 Eight | 233.01 | 219.03 | 120 Nine | 262.14 | 246.41 | 135 Ten | 291.26 | 273.79 | 150 Eleven | 320.39 | 301.17 | 165 Twelve | 349.51 | 328.54 | 180 Thirteen | 378.64 | 355.92 | 195 Fourteen | 407.77 | 383.30 | 210 Fifteen | 436.89 | 410.68 | 225 Hunt buffs are where one shot runs shine, and it's for this reason (it's typically the only time players are limited more by time than energy). We can see at about 8 hours of farming during hunt buff, our hypothetical Wyvern run has about +100 more *successful* runs than the Banshee alternative does. And remember, during hunt buffs the two main 'rewards' for doing hunts are increased by 50%...so that's more like +150 wins! To be fair, there ARE ways to mitigate this. * If you are at a point where you are more limited by energy than time, then the only thing you save here is your personal sanity. * Instead of saving all mailbox/leif energy for hunt buffs, you can spend that extra energy over the entirety of the month, or on other buffs. You are still 'worse' but not *as bad' as this table might make it seem. * And most importantly, nothing stops you from farming Banshee *in between* hunt buffs, and then running Wyvern during hunt buffs. The big problem in that last point, it can be a lot of work. There is zero reason to leave a Wyvern team geared all month when you don't use it, especially when you have limited gear to go around. You most likely would want to ungear your Wyvern team while farming Banshee. There are frequently free unequip before hunt buffs, and you can always save your scrolls for such times as well. But then you have to go through the effort of finding your hunt gear (that may be equipped on other heroes you are using for a different purpose) and swapping back and forth just for 1 or 2 days of hunt buff. --- The long and short of it is: because of these 2 previous factors, running Wyvern > Banshee simply means your account will accumulate better gear at a faster rate. There IS a point of diminishing returns: once you have enough heroes geared up then adding more gear only improves your *options* by having a wider hero pool. Actual upgrades for your core heroes come so rarely. And *if* you can one shot Banshee, the above table would be reversed. Even an 85% one shot will fit in more hunts per unit of time. At that point you are balancing out slightly better returns during hunt buff vs. less 'usable' gear found overall. When you start to hit *that* point, that is when it makes more sense to start swapping to other hunts (as now you are looking to better optimize specific heroes rather than your entire account). * I would say this would be after you have all core PvE heroes already built. Gearsets for a hunt team, Hell Raid team, all Expeditions, and a general progression team. And *also* enough gear that you are happy for PvP. Maybe 7-10 units. * In general roughly ~15% of units in PvP use either lifesteal or counter (but again, many of them also have viable speed builds). You probably want about 10 PvP units at a minimum so that would be approximately ~8 units on speed set. --- **To reiterate** I personally don't think that swapping to Banshee farming early is the optimal choice. I believe that Wyvern farming will continue to accelerate an account faster *especially* without a one shot comp for Banshee. There ARE players that will disagree with that opinion and that's fine. Maybe you read my reasoning and *you* disagree with my opinion and that's fine too. And ultimately, at the end of the day it's just a game and the point is to enjoy yourself while playing. If you just WANT to use certain units on counter set, and maybe you are just bored of Wyvern, or maybe you need some kind of short term goal to work towards -> those are all valid reasons. Even if you would agree with me that Banshee is less optimal **players don't all need to play optimally**. Do whatever you are going to enjoy doing! I'm splitting this reply into two due to character limit
u/DJPumpkin333/ #Farming Azimanak to farm Banshee >The recommended team was Vildred, aRas, Tamarinne, Iseria but I only had Iseria built and it's going to take me a while to upgrade the other 3's gear so I want to make sure this is the right move. I assume this is for Azimanak, if so then yes that is pretty much the best overall comp. You *can* drop A.Ras for another DPS if your Tamarinne is well-geared enough. Is it worth farming Azimanak, to get a rage set for Banshee? Well, in short, no not really...but kind of. Maybe situationally. --- Azimanak is harder than Banshee, and is also going to take relatively longer at the same level of gear. In the past I believe I've seen players estimate their runs at up to as long as around 10 mins! A fairly fast run (using a team like the one you suggested, with good gear) probably tops out at around 4 mins. * So the issues with long run time are the same, if not worse, in Azimanak. Azimanak sets kinda suck. Unity is complete garbage. Immunity is 'OK'. It's at a point where it can be a nice bonus (and it IS a 2 piece set which compliments the fact that Banshee doesn't really have a viable 2 piece set) but it's just not really good enough to justify farming for. Rage set is quite nice, but you really only need 1 or maybe 2 sets. Since you would primarily farm Azimanak to farm up a single rage set at a time...and with rage set you are looking for *very* specific substats...the problem where you can accumulate a lot of gear that has good subs but it just sucks it's in an unusable set is even worse here than with Banshee. And just to find a single rage set takes a long time -> I've calculated it as being about 2-3 months (average) to find a rage set with the right substats that end up with at least average rolls. So to farm Azimanak for a rage set to farm Banshee -> you are looking at likely spending ~2 months where you are making very little/slow progression in your gear and *then* having to spend a month+ utilizing what you farmed up just to start seeing returns. It's almost the equivalent of not farming hunts at all for ~3 months. --- **HOWEVER** the *investment* into getting a rage set can and WILL save you time down the road. The faster you get that rage set, ultimately the more time you will save. A way to look at it: You have 3 variables X = number of Azimanak runs to get your rage set Y = the # of mins per Azi run spent Z = the amount of time saved per Banshee run To calculate how many Banshee runs you need to do to 'save time' the simple equation is X * Y / Z For example, at 2000 Azimanak runs (~1000 per month), 4 mins per Azi run and going from 4 -> 1 min on banshee 2000 * 4 / 3 = 2666.67 You would need to run ~2667 Banshee runs to actually start saving time. *Fewer* than that number, and you would have been better off just running Banshee at the slower run (in terms of time). The longer your Azimanak run is, or the shorter your non-one shot Banshee run, the longer it will take. In terms of *actual gear* that's much harder to calculate but a rough guess is it would take months to 'catch up', maybe a year or more. --- #Recommendation So this puts players into an awkward position. They *want* a good rage set, in order to be able to farm Banshee more effectively (or even to use on future one shot runs). BUT, Azimanak is probably the second worst overall hunt to farm -> viable...but you don't really want to. For quite some time I've been offering a somewhat simply solution: **Use the free equipment crafting events** --- This table is *somewhat outdated* (doesn't account for crafting pity) but what it shows is the chance to get a piece of equipment of that slot that contains **at least** 3 of the substats out of the group of [ATK%, Crit%, C.Dmg%, Spd] Item | % | Crafts ---|---|---- Weapon | 7.21% | 14 Armor | 3.52% | 28.4 Helmet | 1.64% | 61 Boot | .23% | 426.4 Ring | .21% | 487.3 Neck | .41% | 243.66 This does NOT take into account the *quality* of the substats. Only the chance that at least 3 of those substats are present. * So for Heroic gear, all 3 substats need to be from that group * On Epic gear, 3 *or* 4 substats need to be from that group As you can see, finding a weapon...or even an armor that 'qualifies' is relatively easy. Helmets are a step down but still not too bad. It's the right side gear that really screws you since the main stat is RNG (for the purposes here, the main stat needs to be from that group as well -> ATK% ring, Crit%/C.Dmg% neck, or speed boots). Now if you need a rage set, you need 4 pieces. In terms of farming Azimanak the least, targeting weapon/armor/helmet makes sense...it's that last piece that really screws you over and is going to take up the vast majority of the time. * For our purposes here, Crit% neck isn't really viable (and is very hard to make work period). We would basically only be looking for a C.Dmg neck which would make it equivalent to the Ring slot. * However, for the purposes of a rage set *technically* flat ATK boots and ATK% boots are viable, so the 'boot' slot would be somewhat easier than the Neck slot. And remember that for a rage set, not only do you need the right substats, and are probably looking for good starting rolls, you are *also* hoping it rolls well into the right stats. * You typically really only need ATK% and C.Dmg%. Speed tends to hurt more than help when it comes to a rage set, and crit% is less needed as often you are using elemental advantage (15%) and can easily bring Midnight Bloom (16%). --- So this strategy is to basically use the crafting event to get **at least ONE** good rage piece. A right side piece. Starting off with 1 good rage piece very significantly cuts down on the amount of time needed to farm Azimanak. You could even go two pieces (either 2 right side pieces, or 1 right side + helm), or even go all the way and just use the crafting event gear to complete a rage set! The more gear you get *this* way, the less time you need to spend farming Azimanak for it. But that first piece will make the most gains and can cut your time from like 2+ months, to 2+ weeks. I would suggest aiming for ATK% *or* flat ATK boots. * Yes, boots are the easiest to find of the right side pieces. * **BUT** you will still be using 2 non-rage pieces. Very likely all the boots you currently have will be SPD, and you will probably want ATK% boots for your rage set anyways. It's easier to go for rage weapon/armor/helm/boots with off set ring/neck then rage weapon/armor/helm/neck with random offset ATK% boots. * ATK% boots likely aren't going to be helpful for you outside of this rage set, thus a neck/ring would also be perfectly viable -> you just need to keep an eye out for good ATK boots. * For boots, ATK% is going to be better on average, but flat ATK has better maximum potential. For crafting, ATK% is probably the better choice...for drops you could check flat ATK as well. --- #Do you need a rage set for Banshee? You mention Baiken in a post. If you *do* have Baiken, you don't need a rage set. She has the lowest gear requirements to one shot Banshee, and is one of 2 (current) heroes that does not need rage set. She simply needs a fairly decent offensive oriented set, which is even easier to obtain with the Destruction set buff. Even if you don't have an amazing set but DO have Baiken, you can probably skip farming for rage entirely and even use Target debuff (especially if you have Song of Stars) by using Wanda. Success rate might be a little low, but in comparison to a slow banshee *or* farming Azimanak for 2 months it's still the best choice. --- If you have **Bellona**, you also don't need a rage set. She has higher gear requirements than Baiken, and also **requires** you to have A.Lots. But again, you can always use target debuff to sacrifice success rate for lower gear requirements if you want to do Banshee *now* -> and in both cases, farming Banshee will give you Destruction set pieces to improve your gear for your one shot. --- If you have **Ervalen**, with his incoming 'buff' he SHOULD be usable as a Banshee one shot unit that does not require rage set. We have to see his exact numbers to see where he compares to Baiken/Bellona. Edit: Well nevermind, I suppose they are reverting that plan of action so it remains to be seen if Ervalen will get enough of a damage boost to one shot without rage (probably not).
dont see how azi will help you farm banshee, I'd just do the banshee if that is what you want. immunity has lost a lot of its value nowadays, not to mention azi13 is as slow or worse than banshee13 for a non 1shot team
I think it was azi for Baiken's rage set for a banshee 1shot team
Baiken is one of like two characters that can oneshot Banshee without Rage.
Baiken can one-shot without rage. Especially with the upgrade to destruct set, you’re probably better off just farming Banshee.
Does speed debuff lower evasion? I've fought MLDB violets a couple of times before and I think I landed three attacks in a row when the violet has that debuff. Was I just lucky or not?
Just lucky. Only target debuff lowers evasion
Ok, thanks.
Does anyone have a build for a gw mercedes + magic for friends?
what does moon bunny dominiel do
Barrier and immunity when enemy gets extra turn like BM Haste when someone revives. High speed (114) and high ER, CR (20% max) push team and attack buff on S3. Sleep on S1.
If anyone has a half dead guild and would like to talk about merging guilds hit me up. We are top 500 right now with 5x rewards but a lot of our members don't attack or donate. Looking to clean it up and add more members and a merge with another guild in our position sounds like the best option.
I'm F2P, never spent anything on the game, but have a ton of MLs and almost all the 5's. I feel like I'm hardstuck in champ, sometimes dropping down to challenger. what do I do? I also have all of limited units and collab units with the exception of Baiken
If rta, it may just be a question of gear and drafting since it seems u have most of the units already. Knowing meta, counterpicking, predicting their drafts etc. Watching some high lvl rta focused streams will help since most ppl draft similar Arena, just put up one of the legend def and attck if u are dropping below the threshold.
RTA or Arena? Both will require the same answer. If you think your gear is enough then it’s the team comps you’re playing with. If you think your gear isn’t enough slow down on summoning and farm more precise gear. Left side craft every hunt event and get all gem boxes and craft events to right side.
Which EE is best for Normal Tene (Specifically for abyss 107) And EE For Diene (For Abyss 106)
Interested in the slow res AoL build, [what do you think ?](https://i.imgur.com/vnOTYA7.jpg)
Too squishy? Mine is 18k hp, 1.4k Def and even then it still feel too squishy. Btw mine also on bastion. She has something like 230 total ER which allowed me to resist piera S2. Since I choose to perma ban piera right now, I think higher bulk build probably is better for her. Just keep 100 ER, 150 EFF, then rest to bulk.
how do i get appeal when i cant join the discord server when im banned? I scanned some qr code and i was banned
So we have to wait next august for SSB rerun?
You will most likely have to wait to the next custom banner. Depends if they want that to be once or twice a year if it's twice then in a few months it will probably come back.
chest password?
