    It comes back every couple months or so. The last one was the Christmas one with Alencia's holiday skin.

    Got a new 3 Star unit from daily pull today called Muwi. Took a look at their kit and this is basically a unit that seems 100% designed for Wyvern killing. Debuff on basic attack, defense break in case Furious can't land his to save his life (literally), pushes the rest of the Ice team when front unit is hit, etc.

    So looks like my Wyvern team is going to be Angelica, Furious, Sigret, and Muwi. Just need a bit of gear to get started and also to finish Furious's connection quest.

  • ShadowfireShadowfire Vermont, in the middle of nowhereRegistered User regular
    Yep, that's pretty much the default Wyvern team now, though people will often switch Angelica for Momo. And the free Attack gear is enough for Muwi and Sigret, while the free Health gear is enough for Momo/Angelica. Plus you only need Muwi and Sigret at 35% crit chance, and as long as you get all three to 65 effectiveness you're pretty much guaranteed good to go.

    I'll keep Angelica as the tank until I can get a G.Purg and gear him, since A.Momo will take a while to SC and also I can use her in higher difficulty PvE content where Angelica doesn't work so well.

    Trying to find a guild that does the daily buffs is more difficult than it used to be. Even getting into one is hard, 99% of the ones listed are in Spanish or high level but 0 weekly assistance. And I need 400 crests to get Furious to join.

    We have space open if you're 35, but we're also kinda dead so

    I managed to find one just before reset, Furious connection get. Threw him into the training room so he's at Level 50 and fully awakened.

    And then I rolled him on the daily pull because sure why not. I'll hold on to this until I have four more and use them to make him a real 5 Star.

    They look fun. You know who I am enjoying is Beehoo lol. With my Araminthas and ML Flan or Carrot it is just so much dmg going out and high probability of control. When it doesnt work it fails hard but eh its e7 that happens. I also got DDR during his run and he is really fun against those stall hp scaling comps we all see all over the place as well.

    It will be interesting to see if ML Bologna scales well enough. Her kit looks fun though. Amid will be a fun addition. Lots of cycling for the 4th/3rd spot for my turn 2 teams looks like.

    Finding a lot of units I don't recognize in Arena now since I stopped playing around beginning of Ep 3. So I don't really know what they do when facing them.

    I'm finding out that for a lot of them "what they do" is "murder my entire team" with some nonsense like AoE everyone for big damage, take another turn and delete a unit with insane single target damage, then go into stealth with skill null for the whole party while pushing them all up. In Gold tier.

  • ShadowfireShadowfire Vermont, in the middle of nowhereRegistered User regular
    A lot of the people in gold were people who haven't played in a long time and their ranking decayed. They really need to purge a lot of those accounts from the arena rankings.

    A lot of the newer 3* units are designed around PvE. The latest round of units are mostly focused at Expo's.

    I'm curious how MLBella will do. She's another option for Senya/Choux, but then I have D.Corvus who works 99% of the time.

    Dorkus and STene are two I still don't have and it's always a bit disappointing when I see someone bringing them up.

    I mean, I don't have Straze either, but fuck that guy.

    Oh shit I got ML Bologna with my paltry 1.3k saved mystics.

    And fuck Crimson Seed. I am glad its dead. Ill take my recall items and smile like a jackass at all the salty whiners. A 4 star arti on a hero making it that oppressive in static 100% deserved a nerf. A "niche" arti was replaced with a "niche" 4* arti. Good.

    So I finally worked my way to the final mission in Episode 4, mission 10-10 and I can't beat the final boss Zio for the life of me? I know it's got that doom counter where he autokills people and I know how to get rid of it, but I can't seem to do damage fast enough or earn enough soul points to shed the Doom Counter quickly enough. Any tips?

  • MadicanMadican No face Registered User regular
    Well dang. Did my daily covenant summons, multiple since I finished that new player event, and suddenly bam purple flash into Mediator Kawerik. I remember when he came out his nickname was Mid Kawerik but now he's got a 5.0 rating apparently

    There's a bunch of tricks on the fight, but ultimately build your party around units that only need one soul to burn. ARas is great since you need a knight, and you can soul burn his s2 at the lantern to generate 8 souls. Meru is good here if you have her built up too. Took me lots of experimenting to get through tho.

    Yeah, hand guy has become one of the top units in the game. So congrats there.

    Belonna is pretty fun, even with my trash gear. I might try to move up in arena again.

    Maybe.

    Probably not though.

    And my daily draw today was Tomoca. Glad I didn't end up buying her for coins last month!

    I don't have the gear for her of course, but I'll still use her in guild wars to eat Arbys.

    I don't know what's happening but I'm getting more ML5s on this new account than I ever did on my primary. So far aside from ML Blessing I've pulled: Mediator Kawerik, Little Queen Charlotte, Blood Moon Haste, and Death Dealer Ray from daily Covenant+ML bookmarks. I'd also have Lone Crescent Bellona if I hadn't missed the 50/50 last week and gotten regular Charlotte instead.

    Shame I can't use most of them yet though. Only just getting this W13 team up and running, let alone other Hunts.

    I really need to put together a better Banshee team already. If I'm never going to get speed gear,I might as well get my bruisers in order.

    I use Vivian, Baiken, Leo, and ML Tieria, mostly for the 2 shots at defense break since otherwise it fails. I believe there are a couple Baiken unit replacements now as well. The hardest part is getting Vivian strong enough to kill the phase 1 folks.

    My big issue for banshee oneshot was tuning damage so Vivian killed adds at start, but didn't make the boss split before Baiken acts.

    But Leo, Vivian, Baiken is a very comfortable banshee oneshot team.

    Butcher Corp Inquisitor SC: "Acquire 1 Mercenary Medicine Catalyst from battle"

    I have a burning hatred for whoever allowed this to stick through all the various SC req easements. I've seen them, they made them better, but this is still dumb as hell to be so reliant on RNG when only one singular stage in Untold History even drops it.

    Shadowfire
  • Jubal77Jubal77 Registered User regular
    Yeah it is RNG but there are others that will be more "meh" Ricks being one off the top of my head. At least farming a merc medicine you will be farming AP for any other catalysts you need. And you always need them.

    Does CLorina still have the 25 urgent missions one? I remember that being a pain.

    And I just realized I still haven't finished Jena's SC.

    Nope, they got rid of that urgent mission one and made it an 800 AP one which is MUCH easier. Also instead of needing to kill 10,000 monsters it's only 1,500 and you only need to acquire spearhead catalysts instead of gifting them now.

    Glad to see a pet update. I still don't have a 5* pet as it's so crazy long to level up the fodder. Even if it's 1 pet for 1 shard, I can romp through 200 pets easy enough over time.

    I just got my first 5* pet, I wanted to use the butterfly from the Aespa collab. But I'm glad that they're basically skins now, and I might have a reason to use my 500ish pet tickets.

    Aww, I thought they were actually skins, but looking back at it, the pet you're using is actually destroyed. Considering the number of limited pets, this is disappointing.

    I made my first 5* pet as well. I was almost there before building up 3-4* fodder which helped. I was able to switch to the rare purple dragon.

    Waiting to get some more good S-rank skills before I focus on pets again. Got a Lobby pet with the +Hero EXP and a Spirit Altar pet with +Common Runes as my two S-rank skills. Hopefully I can snag the Bonus Equipment one soon, earlier the better for Hunt runs.

  • Trajan45Trajan45 Registered User regular
    A lobby pet with equipment XP is usually my first choice for focusing on. Usually you run enough hunts to get gold, that extra mats isn't that huge (I was almost always gold/charm limited vs mats). But getting that XP boost on equipment is soooo valuable for saving charms. Especially early game since you probably want most of the arena gear.
