Anybody have a Lavog ε clear without Radias AS or Lovely AS?
I'm theorycrafting and if I'm correct I should be able to clear it with Kamlanage, Harle, Prai, Miyu ES, Soira AS, and Premaya Alter.
Current issues:
>T2's AF not hitting the stopper, which I'm hoping a second Pitch-Dark Ring can fix and bringing Kamla into battle at 1 HP so he has Low HP Grasta active
>T3 being fairly RNG heavy, requiring Soira's VC to inflict Rage (for some reason even with her Grasta it doesn't ignore resistance) and a chance of being speed screwed by the boss
>Needing the Fresh Heal Badge on Soira for turns 5, 7, and 8. Not an issue per se, I've just been too lazy to do Purgatory.
>The T5, T7, and especially T8 AFs might be difficult or impossible since I haven't actually made it that far yet.
If I can't get it to work, I'll just bring Velette and Gunce but I'm going to at least try the more budget option first
I do have Velette. My problem is that if she's the main damage dealer, She kills everyone even the one without pain.
Just used this to clear it.
Had to retry like 5 times because 2nd AF kept lagging and eating Ashtear's 2nd Mystery Bullet, but once I made sure to see her attack land before swapping to Velette and Necoco's skills it was a fast clear.
Some changes I made were Pizza using Oriental Ring since I didn't have the OOPArt one, and using 100% Type Debuff Resist and 100% Physical Debuff Resist Grastas on her to avoid debuff RNG, along with the Flame Crush Grasta instead of her Duet Arrow for more hits in AF.
Necoco with the cat Lover Special Attack VC Grasta since mine is only 32 Light and was missing some SPD.
Ashtear with +60 MP and +60 PWR due to being 180 Light.
Joker instead of Dewey, Almighty Glasses/Gun and Type Debuff Resistance 15% [P] grasta.
Strawboy instead of Cerrine, Power of Thunder Fists, Low HP Fists, Max HP Fists, Max HP Fists.
Kumos with Loire's Pocket Watch and Tetra in reserve.
I hate you, OP. Now, I have to stare at this gayshit OP for months using this snail thread. Seriously, frick you.
Only half is gay though. Alt Dunarith gets mad b***hes.
50% gay is still gayshit, homosexual. have a nice day.
When I look at Dunarith, I think of big dps or his sister and then hitting his sister with my big dps
>16 more light on Suzette
Pretty good whisper of time, just wish it gave me her ES so I could save the chants.
Got Felmina AS, which is cool as I had no forms of her. Now to grind out her ES tomes.
Pushed me to 180 chars too so that's nice as well.
Who did all of you get?
Got suzette 4.5 star dupe, veina 5 star dupe, new philo 4.5 star, and ended with a new AS dunarith.
>Lavogs don't give gems
fricking israeliteery afoot
The old thread wasn't even past the bump limit and was at page 4.
It's on bump limit but could take at least 1-2 weeks until it's archived.
Are the new bacon weapons better than the elpis weapons? How much does crit damage matter over overthrow?
If my math is correct then Elpis and Dryad should have identical damage on enemies that are level 69~70. Higher level enemies make Elpis better.
However, other sources of Overthrow like Toova Alter's Another Sense or Yakumo's Unchained, any form of Mental Focus (or Sesta's Singular Focus), and any form of Eagle Eyes all have diminishing returns with Elpis. And if you manage to stack enough of them, you could theoretically hit the hard cap and make Elpis do nothing at all.
On the other hand Dryad are very good for anyone with SPD based damage, since they grant between 25 and 50 SPD based on how much L/S the character has; a 255 Light Miyu gets 50 extra SPD for her SPD-scaling Keraunos Charis in addition to the 15% Crit Damage buff. And unlike the Overthrow/Focus/Eagle buffs, Crit Damage doesn't diminish and can stack indefinitely.
The Ax for Kikyo AS, Lance for Miyu ES, maybe Katana for Tsukiha AS/Melissa, maybe Sword for Milla should all be solid damage options. If Elga NS gets a True Manifest, she'd also be a good user of Dryad Katana.
For Astral Archive (iirc their levels are hard coded to be low to screw over Overthrow) Dryad is probably best in slot, otherwise it depends on if you're using other Overthrow/Focus/Eagle buffs, and if you are, what level enemies you're fighting and how much of those buffs you've stacked.
If nothing else, everything but the Staff and Katana are BiS for SPD-raising weapons once you're at 60+ L/S. Aceto Vita and Crescent Shadow are +1 SPD until 250+ L/S at which point they are identical to Dryad.
Rushed localization this update (see
and pic related), as well as JP often having ambiguous genders when talking about people. It wouldn't surprise me if Gunce is never definitively stated to be male or female in the original JP version.
>He

Is Gunce trans?
Yes, a transformer

>Cyrus' weapon is only good for non type attacks

>wonder why Sea Rattle isn't curing blindness

>it only works on Charge skills, not Auto skills
well damn there goes that plan
My first 255. Flam will be too next month.
I'm comiiinggg
How do you guys order your skills? I've seen people list them by the highest mp on top, but I've always done the opposite with the strongest skill on the bottom.
1st slot is skill spammed in 1st AF turn, 3rd slot is skill for second turn, 2nd slot for general DPS skill
Rhythm is ideally 111133332222
Depends on the fight, but I'll synchronize it so the skill that gets spammed the most is always on the same number. I used to do slot 1 for it, but there was some boss fight where I would accidentally tap on one of the bosses and switch targets during the AF so I swapped to 2 for a while, but now my spam skill is on 3.
Occasionally I'll put it back to 2 if I'm running a character with only 2 skills, so I can weave in a 1-time buff from the other characters on 3 easier.

News in about 12 hours
Big announcement is a new ensemble, right? Hopefully this one has a 5* attached instead of just a treatise/codex/opus, given how busted Benedict has become.
They use 外伝 which refers to the Episodes, not Ensembles.
I'm thinking it's going to be an entirely new one, although if it's a continuation to an already existing Episode my money would be on Sophia's first, followed by Azure Rebel second where we finally get Galliard 5*.
Could be Time Mine part 2.

Another gacha
>This guy gacha banner is only until November 12 while AS Pom banner is until December 6 despite she was released earlier
I wonder if gacha banners will be shorter from now
Concerning.
Can you provide a screenshot of his free banner rate-up showing the date?
Never mind, found it.
>they extended banner lengths as a QoL to help players
>now they're reverting it because they don't want people waiting for Suzette/Tsukiha 6* to come out before they roll on Serius's banner just in case they get a dupe Suzette/Tsukiha and progress on their 6* awakening
REAL scummy move there, WFS
Well the game is hitting the end of its natural lifespan - part 3 is the final of the main story and I doubt they'll keep adding content much longer than that. Expect EOS at the exact date of the Chrono Cross crossover's expiration (December 2026).

This game needs pity/sparking
>33k stones on a pierce DPS with a lame chinky design
y
>he is rated 99 on Altema while Aldo is 98
y
He looks like Pierce Yakumo - blasts his main skill a lot on certain conditions. Which is nice and all, but DPS is more or less interchangeable now that we've got Kaleido.
Only had to waste 3k stones at least while I think I spend at least 8k total on Orleya/ES Miyu + her AS banners but still haven't get her
Can you confirm how the system works? Does he spark as 4 or 6 on the free banners or only the paid ones?
That's actually from free crystals despite he somehow appeared on the last slot. You can get him as 4.5* on both free and paid banners but no bonus at all. Getting 5* for 1st time unlock 6* automatically and getting 5* dupes gives 26 Light/Shadow instead of just 16.
>AS Pom and AS Orleya banner will end on December 6 despite the latter was released earlier
Kinda sus. I wonder if they planned EN will catch up on December 7
Possible but wouldn't they need to combine updates in Global or pause updates in JP for that to work out? I figured it would be New Years so they legalities would be easier (wouldn't have to update 2023 terms or contracts, just institute 2024 ones),
I figured we'd officially get caught up at the GL anniversary in February and they'd do some special banner and event for that.
>pause updates in JP
There were 3 weeks of nothing between AS Pom and new episode release in JP but assuming EN still doing about 10 days between each update, the episode will be released in EN around November 24.
EN is currently only missing AS Orleya, AS Pom and new episode + extra stuff which are included with them like new ADs and Kikyo Manifest
Cute!
More dudes, nice!
oh no... this feels like they're either trying to fix power creep or they're going to make it 10x worse.
3 parts planned
https://twitter.com/rpg_AE/status/1716776645066178878
New system
And there it is - the powercreep kiss of death, 6* characters.
It's still single player game so it shouldn't matter aside of superbosses although you need 80 light/shadow to fill the board
There's apparently a double unlock - you need an upgrade material to open the board in the first place or to roll the character at 5*.
Another game I'm playing is doing a similar thing where every character can go to 6*, what are the odds.
If you mean COTC that game explicitly does take a lot from AE.
Yeah I was surprised it wasn't made by WFS based on how it plays. I hope the new system incentivizes them to give out light/shadow more freely.
I hope so too, but considering I'm a light spender with no gacha character besides one at above 80 light shadow this doesn't seem optimistic especially with two new gacha and no new styles.
After a year...finally...
She's HOT

Bocchi Tea Pot coming
>Need 80 L/S for your 6* characters
well my 0 Shadow Alter Dewey might be benched depending on how reliant on Lv100s the new content is, but Felmina, Thille, Iphi, Benedict, Dunarith, Melina, Tsukiha, Nagi, Gariyu, Chiyo, Sevyn, Myunfa, Mariel, Foran, Azami, and Miyu are all in good spots.
Maybe I'll finially start farming Aldo too since I've left him at 10 Light.
I find it ass that only those 'upgraded' characters can be used in the new AF or whatever it's called.
It looks like they're not unlocking the system all at once but staggering it like manifests. First besides Aldo and the new bow guy are Tsukiha and Suzette's base forms. After that I bet it follows the manifest weapons order.
We won't even have foresight soon so gotta save all of those materials.
>69 Shadow Lance, 66 Light Bow, 63 Light Katana, 33 Light Ax, 31 Shadow Sword, 26 Light Hammer, 23 Light Lance, 22 Light Sword/Light Fist, 21 Shadow Ax all sitting unused
Hoarders win again. A more rash individual might have used all that light on Claude to bring him up to 120, but now I can wait and see who I need to hit 80 and possibly split the Bow between Premaya and Yukino instead.
I'm not touching any of mine, have fun with yours though.
>Suzette
Choosing her to be my first 255 was the best decision I ever made. She just can't stop winning.
I wonder if a character you've already pulled dupes of can get their 6* upgrade when it comes out, or if you have to wait to pull another dupe after the update for it to count
if it's the latter then it might be worth it to wait to claim Tsukiha/Tsubame, Kikyo, Yukino/Heena, and Necoco/Garambarrel just in case the update comes out before the banners expire
According to the JP wiki, having a character already will charge the unlock meter to 1/3, but additional pulls in the past won't retroactively give more than the 1/3 for having the character. Subsequent 5* pulls will give them another charge, three of which are required to 6*. Monthly missions will give out 1 charge per month, meaning you can 6* a character every other month.
Free characters will get their unlock materials through Archive challenges.
System seems very poorly designed with the staggering of releases working against the player. Let's Aldo and the new guy's 6* get released and that day I pull 2 5* Suzettes. Those dupe Suzettes don't count for unlocking, as her 6* isn't released yet. Releasing them at all once would at least be fairer, as off banner dupes would automatically "count."
There are apparently also going to be new banners (paid only it seems) that give additional light/shadow per pull and unlock 6*s automatically.
Very very israeli.
I really hope that this is just speculation and the actual system is less garbage, because as it stands this invalidates basically all of the whaling pre-update. I've seen several JP streamers/youtubers with multiple 255 gacha characters, often during the character's release week, and now they have to pull 2 more of every character after their 6* release.
Tsukiha and Nagi will both be more than 255 for me if I have to pull 2 more of them 3 months from now.
Instead of pulling for the new characters day 1, we're now incentivized to wait until the last couple days of their banner just in case a new 6* becomes available on the off chance we pull them off-banner.
God dammit I praised AE's gacha for years and now they pull this shit on us.
>>I really hope that this is just speculation
No, it's confirmed by the presentation.

>星導覚醒の方法
>One awakening gauge required for Star Guide Awakening will accumulate when you meet the target character. If you own a character that appeared before Ver. 3.4.0, you can obtain one Awakening Gauge when Star Guide Awakening is implemented.
Although the phrasing is slightly ambiguous - everything rolled after 3.4.0 may count, regardless of the implementation of that specific character's 6* or not.
well RIP Another Eden, it was a good run while it lasted.
That was my exact thought when I read the page. Nothing kill a game faster than going 6*, except going 7*. Brave Exvius bullshit right there.
It seems like the Stella Points a seperate from the L/S values themselves, so you probably only need to hit 80. But who knows.
Yeah but now its the equivalent of pulling them three times instead of just once.
>the Stella Points a seperate from the L/S values themselves, so you probably only need to hit 80
You need to have 80 L/S for all of the AP to fill out their 6* board.
But you need 3/3 fragments to even unlock their 6* board. If you pull the character on-banner, you unlock their 6* board right away, but if you're getting your dupes off-banner you only get 1/3 of the way there each dupe.
Having the character before the update gives 1/3 already, so you need 2 more dupes off-banner which is +32 L/S.
Then if and when AS and ES get 6* boards, you'll need to unlock those separately of the NS board, which means another 32 L/S for AS and then another 32 L/S for ES, for 96 total.
Or if you pull NS, AS, and ES all on banner, that's +48 LS.
I suppose technically if you don't have the character AT ALL, and fail to pull them on banner, you'd pull their NS offbanner 3x, then their AS offbanner 3x, then their ES offbanner 3x, and get all three styles up to 6* with 144 L/S total.
So each style requires between 16 (pulled on banner) and 48 (unowned character, pulled off banner exclusively) extra L/S to unlock their board, 48-144 total extra LS for all 3 styles.
The one saving grace is the monthly Trials also give +1/3, which means somebody who already has EVERY character can upgrade 1 style's 6* every other month, and pulling a dupe offbanner NS Suzette for example lets you upgrade her with 1 Trial reward rather than 2.
Your math is as discouraging as it is rigorous.
I doubt every character will get a 6*. It'll be every post 3.4.0 character, story MCs and their big buck waifus (and Dunarith), the same group of characters who gets favored with ESs and Alters.
Doing more math, there are 161 total styles which would be applicable for the new 6* system (ie. have to be able to pulled from the gacha as a 5* NS, AS, or ES so no Benedict, Sevyn, Miyu, or Brea, but Miyu AS/ES, Akane AS, Chiyo AS are all viable) - or 163 if we include the 2 announced JP characters.
Getting rid of the Alters, ES, and AS, we're left with 68 - or 70 including the new anncouned ones.
If we assume an account already has every style and never pulls a dupe, they can upgrade 6 characters per year from monthly trials. So the question becomes, how often do 6*s get released? For the first 4 months, it's pretty much a given to use the trials on Suzette and Tsukiha, but WFS will have to assume some people pull dupes and release more 6*s before 4 months have passed.
I would guess they'd average 1/month? Maybe they'll do 2/month.
I still don't like it, because if you can't get the new character on release you'll have to use 2 months worth of trials on them that you'd rather use on the old characters you already have and don't want to spend CS chasing a dupe of.
Could be the upgradeable 5* units (aka Benedict and Sevyn and the others like that) will end up working like Aldo, where there's a non-gacha way to get them. Aldo's is specifically something to do with Astral Archive, iirc
Yeah I was assuming that Brea, Bivette, Ciel NS, Miyu NS, May, Prai, Sevyn, and Benedict would all exclusively have non-gacha upgrades and excluded them from all of my calculations, since you can't ever pull them as 5*.
Meanwhile the AS versions of 4* characters that you can pull from the gacha like Akane AS, Miyu AS, etc. would all be viable for their upgrade being tied to the gacha like the ordinary 5* characters are, since you can pull them. Although thinking about it more, AS off-banner are anywhere between 2-4x less common than 5* NS off-banner which would make upgrading an AS to 6* even more painful.
God I hope all of the JP whales complain about this.
>even more painful.
Alts would be even worse, given they've got a 0.001% roll rate.
Getting a copy is already hard and I heard they want you to get a 5* copy for a fragment. What bullshit.
5* on banner (ie. get Suzette when Suzette is rate up) = All 3 fragments, can instantly 6*
5* off-banner (ie. get Suzette on Oboro's banner) = 1/3 fragment
Already have one of the pre-3.4.0 characters = free 1/3 fragment
Complete new monthly trial, like the ones for 5 L/S and 1 cat coin = 1/3 fragment for the character of your choice
Going forward you're pretty much damn near required to pull every new character on their respective banners, and the characters you already have you're going to wait 2 months to manually upgrade (or 4 since they're dropping Suzette and Tsukiha at the same time)
The ideal thing is to ignore every single banner from now on, ignore Serius's banner (the bow guy), and wait for Suzette/Tsukiha to get their 6*. (if they get their 6* before the end of the month, OR if the monthly trial can be used on characters who don't have their 6* yet). Then pull for Serius and assuming you get him he'll be 6*, then pull for Oboro and assuming you get him he'll also be 6*.
If you get any off-banner Suzette or Tsukiha, that puts you 1 month closer to their 6*. If you only get 4.5 Serius or Oboro, then you need to farm their tome and then also spend 3 months worth of trials on them.
I used to praise AE because of how accessible it was; once you get any form of a character from the gacha, you can upgrade and sidegrade them to have every version of them.
The 4.5* Toova I pulled on my very first roll back in 2020, I was able to get 5 Cursed Bride Treatises and sidegrade to her AS, I got 5 Ereshkigal Codices for her ES, I pulled her Alter from some banner but I had the Persephone Opera to unlock her as well, and I can upgrade her NS to Geomancer if I ever want to spend the Chants on it.
Now if I get 4.5 Serius, I can farm his 5* Tome sure, but then I'll have to wait 3 months to do enough trials to upgrade him, and by doing so I'd also be pushing back the upgrades for Suzette and Tsukiha.
This is not the AE that I fell in love with.
>5* on banner (ie. get Suzette when Suzette is rate up) = All 3 fragments, can instantly 6*
Not true.
>This is not the AE that I fell in love with.
Writing was on the wall once they started to speed up the Global updates to match JP. This happens every single time whenever a gachas Global content is merged with JP. We also lose out on currency/rolls because we get to the same destination in a fraction of the time. The catch-up campaign is a joke.
>If you own a character that appeared before Ver. 3.4.0, you can obtain one Awakening Gauge when Star Guide Awakening is implemented.
How will this work for 4.5*, or AS? If they come out with Toova 6*, would my 4.5* Toova get one piece for free or would 4.5* not be good enough?
If 4.5* doesn't count but I manually upgrade her before 3.4.0 would I then get credit?
If 4.5* does count, but AS doesn't then everyone should be scrambling to sidegrade all the characters they only have AS/ES/Alter versions of just in case - because that's an entire month's worth of trial rewards worth of awakening material.
>new banners (paid only it seems) that give additional light/shadow per pull and unlock 6*s automatically.
it's the usual 2 times only paid banner whenever a new character is released except it give bonus now if you somehow get the new character on the rolls
>awakening system is per style. AS/ES will still need to be awakened separately even if original character is already awakened
so if you already have a character and get the free 1/3, that's +96 more L/S to awaken their NS, AS, and ES.
1K stones.
Grats!
Zilva DESERVES a 5 star. He is too much of a great character
>Introducing 6* characters
So is the game dead now?
Nah, all depends on how necessary these things are.
Just set the difficulty to Beginner for story purpose. It probably won't matter aside for new superbosses.
and even then said new supoerbosses will still be clearable by free units, it'll just take a bit
Not true anymore. That died with Archive challenges.
Challenge difficulty is optional at least like superbosses although they are going to add Stella difficulty on Archive to unlock Aldo 6* which presumably will be difficult.
To be fair, F2P players in JP only get 30 crystals each day unless there is a campaign happening.
>Challenge difficulty is optional at least like superbosses
Sure but until Challenge Difficulty got added, any and all content was doable with just free characters. The 3.2 superbosses seems like they're overtuned for free parties as well but I'm sure someone worked it out.
Considering Aldo skills are getting buffed after 6* (although you still need to unlock the nodes), maybe the challenge will be eventually possible with free characters although I wonder if free characters from Episodes and collab will also get 6*
I believe it's actually mentioned that the stella difficulty would be manifest level. so i presume there'll only be one unlocked for a fight per free unit that gets it
Aldo Stella difficulty is just survive for 4 turns then AF nuke the boss on turn 5 (using AF is a must or the boss will AF nuke you instead). The difficulty comes from the boss stats buff (I used Origin Force on turn 2) and the boss can't be debuffed (can still be inflicted by Pain/Poison). Aldo also needs to be in front row or the boss will use instant kill AF. The boss only has about 11 millions HP at least and no 2 HP stoppers like Hard/Very Hard version.
That 4* bounty boss in the cave area. How many times does he come back to life after you killed him? I fought him for 3 hours straight until my phone battery died. I looked at his status but I didn't see anything that stood out.
This one?
That's the one. Tried a few different teams but didn't get anywhere. Don't have the newest water characters so I can't do anything with that team. Maybe someday I guess.
Try this one maybe
I think 3 or 4 times. I think he's different in that he has hidden bars of health with heart stoppers. You have to stop him to casting Awakened Earth zone because he gets barrier pierce and then he just keeps pushing back your units even with cyclone immunity.
Here's your Myunfa, bro.
Finally bit the bullet and used the Chants on her for +12 SPD in her NS
I have access to a TM Lokido and can get a TM Myrus easily. I could also sidegrade for AS Tiramisu. I'm trying to figure out an earth team to beat the newest superbosses. With all these great choices, I'm lost for synergy. Can someone help me put together an earth team?
Do you have AS Yipha? She works 99.5% of party comps.
Yeah, i do.
Personally if it were me, I'd start with Shannon Alter.
She awakens Earth Zone multiple times, gets 60 PWR, 60 SPD, and Knockback Immunity in another zone, and she has 4 strong moves. Since yours obviously has less than 80 shadow, you'd have to choose which one to leave.
Epee is her DPS, so you'd never drop it.
Declenchement is an absurd self-buff skill that shouldn't be dropped either,
So it's between Coupure, which is a hefty slash and earth resist debuff, and Ordre which sets up Earth Zone and buffs phys resist. Which one I'd keep and which one I'd drop depends on the rest of the party as well as what superboss you're fighting.
For something really spicy, I'd then go with Myunfa Alter and Claude ES, positioned so Myunfa's "Please..." targets Shannon while her "Keep Me Safe..." targets Claude. Claude uses his Empathy on Shannon, giving both of them ~7k HP and ~950 MP. This lets Claude tank better with Myunfa's "Keep Me Safe..." but more importantly nearly maxes out the Singular Focus damage granted to Shannon by "Please..." from a ~+100% buff to a ~220% buff (out of 250%)
For Myunfa, this takes up 2 of her 3 skill slots. The last one is a toss up between "I'll Do My Best!" for the extra damage, "Steeping Loyalty" for Status Immunity, "Charity Blend" for Earth Stance, or "Break Time" to set P/P. I suppose "Keep Me Safe..." can be swapped out for a second option if tanking isn't necessary.
For Claude ES, beyond Empathy and potentially tanking, Madis Ares gives +100% Crit Damage. Madis Atena is useful as a PWR/INT/SPD debuff. Then... Charis Drakon isn't too useful, since Shannon doesn't use multihits, so it's just Type Attack. Strate Nike isn't useful either, because Shannon only wants Earth Stance not Slash. So it's between Edaphos for a 50% heal and status restore, or Mache Bruktos to inflict Break, which might be useful if Myunfa eats up Shannon's Earth Break with her Tampered Roast. Or maybe Rust Earth Grasta skill.
(cont)
Given Claude ES doesn't care much about his stats other than HP, you could throw on Fresh Heal as an "oh shit" button.
Meant Revive, not Fresh Heal.
For the final character, I think I would use TM Myrus with this comp. She only has 2 skills really worth considering:
Beastly Impact preemptively debuffs Phys Res, Type Res, PWR, and INT for all enemies while also setting Earth Stance and giving Regen+MP Regen. And it can be used during AF to deploy zone.
Then she has Terra Fortress to awaken zone, buff PWR, buff phys type res, restore HP, restore MP, and give status immunity.
Since she's setting zone, Shannon and Myunfa no longer have to worry about doing that.
Since she's a single hitting attacker, she won't eat up all of Shannon's Earth Break.
She debuffs Phys Resist by 60%, which is something the team is currently lacking.
so
Shannon skills
>Ignore defense, 3 stack of Earth Break, Crit for 3x damage
>Buff PWR, SPD, Sword damage
>Debuff Slash Resist/Earth Resist
Myunfa skills
>Give Shannon Singular Focus and Earth Type attack
>Guaranteed Pain/Poison
>EITHER Give Claude 50% barrier and make him Cover for the party OR Prayer for +50% Damage and reduce <1500 damage to 0
Claude skills
>Empathy
>+100% Crit Damage
>probably the PWR, INT, SPD Debuff
>probably Mache Bruktos, or Rust Earth Edge
Myrus skills
>Debuff Phys/Type Res, PWR/INT, Regen, MP Regen, set Earth Stance
>buff PWR/INT, Phys Res, Heal HP/MP, status immunity, awaken zone
>either Water Resist +50%, or a skill from a Grasta or Badge, possibly Revive or Rust Earth Knock
For the back row, I'd use a Sword Grasta Slave: Quake Sword, Max HP Sword, Robust Living Sword. Maybe Low HP Sword if you have a 200+ slave, or Almighty Amnesia if you're using Deirdre. Claude ES could even hold Robust Living while Deirdre holds Quake, HP, Amnesia.
And then I'd probably run Toova Alter, for the ability to bring her to the front for Overthrow Another Sense and sometimes use her skills.
Thank you for the comprehensive posts.
Is there anyone who wants a time restored hammer besides yipha AS?
Other than for the general use case of "Boss spams magic, so improve SPR to survive its skills"? No. Out of everyone who might equip it, I suppose Myunfa Alter would be its "best" user to keep her from being knocked out of Prayer by magic skills sliiightly easier, but I wouldn't invest in making a hammer just for that, and likely wouldn't even think to equip the time restored hammer on her for it either.
AS Yipha can actually mess up modern teams now. She's not an Earth character, so Myunfas Alter's skills won't be at 100% efficacy, Premaya AS would only stack 3 Sagitta instead of 4 making her slightly less useful on turn 2. Without equipping an Earth Attacking Grasta she wouldn't contribute to Shannon Alter's Eclatant stacking which would delay AZ deployment.
She also messes up Parisa AS, Pizzica AS's Harmony stacking for Fortissimo, Dunarith Alter, and Elseal. Also technically Hismena Alter, if you need her to be a specific non-Blunt weapon type but also need Prai or Lovely AS or something.
>See a bunch of JP hating on Velette for her personality
>Do her CQ
>She's bloody hilarious
When will I learn? Japs nigh always have shit taste.
Not her personality, they just don't like her because she betrayed the team and stole your cool mech.
For ONE chapter! Out of like 100!
That's less than 1% of the game, get OVER it.
Don't get mad at me, I don't give a frick, and I generally thought she was decent. But Jap's can hold a mean grudge over that kind of stuff. They also didn't really like the way she treated Gunce. I thought it was funny but there were a lot of complaints that she was a Black Company boss.
>Ugly design
>Obnoxious
>Boring colors
How about you get over it? You like what you like and the reverse applies.
I'm just glad they're adding women who aren't pure mystical waifus. We have enough of those.
There are characters who canon got aldo killed on screen
Yeah, but it's normally played as a joke like with Ilulu or the at least the waifu character regrets what she did. Velette doesn't regret what she did and barely offers an apology, more of a "Yeah, sorry I got caught." Like, I get why some people don't like her.
Well it was no joke in this case, it was a character quest however.
>characters
Which ones? Stealing is fine but I draw the line at animal cruelty.
Yakumo although Nona reset happened
>reset
Yeah, I guess technically it's not our wage slave Yakumo plus it is presented as a bad thing. That's the issue with Velette btw because not only she has zero excuse for being an ass but the game acts like it's so kooky to get into multiple debts and force others to repay them.
It costs over 2000 (not a fricking typing) High Exp Scrolls to go from 80 to 1000. That is utterly fricking ridiculous.
Oof. Guess I'll have to go back to bluestacks in order to macro farm in the overworld while I sleep.
Someone calculated it already, it would be a full day of cyrus genocide in the arena.
>skipped EXP scrolls in Toto's because I have almost 8k, and even if I got every single character I could make them reach 80 and have half my scrolls left over
>now I can make 3 level 100s, maybe 4 with my Mediums
jesas
From the livestream, the 80-100 stat spread isn't too wide, except for HP and MP, which get around +2000/+200. Att gets 60, everything else gets 40-50 ish. Makes me wonder if it is worth actively pursuing for most characters.
Yeah, the stats seems useful but not necessarily make it or break it. I'm curious how important the extra attack thing will be.
Aldo's looks pretty good - if you have 500 points of Light spread between your front lines, it becomes a 11000% slash attack that changes element to match enemy weakness. Don't know how long the Stella Burst state lasts, however, but it looks like beyond having that active it requires no set up.
Can you use it on the first turn or do you have to wait to build up to it?
Requires build up.
When will they ever let us sell/dismantle weapons? This game is 6+ fricking years old already and this is the only JRPG that I've played that doesn't allow it in any form. I'm not talking about maze weapons either. This is BASIC inventory management. I mean, we JUST got better filter options this far into its development. WFS needs a better menu developer because this is frustrating, to say the least.
Holy shit the absolute cancer that is Lavog. I give up all originality in figuring it out. Here I come, YouTube cheese guides. Frick these mechanics.
The answer is Benedict, exxcept for the last one, who gets Kamla'd.
Need two high resistance down. At least 70%. AS Lovely and Radias trivializes him abit because you survive for so long. Just be careful when you hit his heartstopper because he cleanses, breaks zone and then hits.
I give up on lavog. I can't dance around these gay moron mechanics. I'll take a break and come back once 6 power creep kills this game once and for all.
The 4 main element ones can all be cleared fairly easy with Benedict.
The Thunder one is the primary cancer because you have to AF it down 4 times and it resets your buffs and its debuffs every single turn. And you either need a thunder team or a non-elemental team that can do enough hits in AF to start dealing damage AF to kill it.
Then I'm just moronic because my biggest issue is survivability. I'm using benedict, claude es, radias as, and yipha as. Somehow, still with the best team, I'm fricking up.
Do you have Iphi?
If so Benedict, Yipha AS, Iphi, Prai is what I used for the Wind, Fire, and Water ones (and should work for Earth too but that clear was more jank when I was theorycrafting)
1. Timber, Faith on Benedict, Liliac, Slash Zone from grasta
2. Regular Swing, Beannacht Bua, Nocturnal Procession, Slash Zone
3. Timber, Ath, Liliac, swap to Radias NS (and hope Rage procs)
4. Regular Swing, Beannacht Bua, swap to Prai, swap to Cyuca
Lavog splits, target the Core
5. Regular Swing, Beannacht Bua, Indulgence, Wolf Fang
swap to Korobo, use skill to refill AF bar
6. AF: Timber -> Beannacht Bua -> Ax's Prayer (these 3 skills on 1st skill slot) -> Regular Swing -> An Aroir -> Wolf Fang -> Regular Swing (these skills all on 2nd slot) 1112222, Lavog dead
is how I did Delta/Wind.
Beta/Water had Iphi use Heralagia turn 1 but otherwise follow the exact same order, and wasn't reliant on Rage landing from Radias VC.
Alpha/Fire had Iphi swap to Radias NS+Prai use Indulgence on T3, and Radias swap to Cyuca on T4, but otherwise followed Delta's same order.
Buddy is Hyuga with Pandora's Can, he needs at least +1 extra charge by turn 5 so you can swap in Korobo for Perfect Chemistry.
>got excited because there was a gold door
Thanks, Another Off-rate.
Why is the scorpion bounty bypassing knockback immunity?
If his aura activates it gives 100% status resist down to the party. "Immunity" gives 100% status resist up to knock back, but it gets canceled by his aura. I heard some people say that you could use Korobo, who can provide the party with 100% status resistance, which will negate the boss aura and let you become knockback immune again. I don't know if that would work, I haven't tried it yet.
Thanks, just blasted his ass down with Yakumo.
Grats. What team did you use? I still need to give it a shot.
Iphi, Alt Dewey, AS Yipha and Yakumo, Kumos as buddy. First attempt was going really well (talking almost no damage) but I didn't read the aura and he kept cycling Benedict to the backlines.
This time I awoke Shade zone on Turn 2 and smashed it down with little difficulty. By far the easiest of the four, as long as you know the rules. Have Ice and Tower left. Tried Tower a few times but keep getting dominated.
Frick Lavog though.
Grinding for materials for the weapon reforges feels even more tedious than grinding for Otherlands materials.
Wait til the AD comes out, will make it easier.
>Did 50 pulls on Felmina banner just to get one version of her
>Get nothing
T-t-thanks...
Took out the two remaining bounties. Whale wasn't so hard, just stacked multiple kinds of revive (grasta, AS Mariel, Tetra) and hold ground and Yipha and got through it fairly easy.
Tower fricker on the other hand was the most tedious boss I've fought in this game. I tried using AS Lele and it while it worked with no issue, it took about a hundred turns. She'd take ten or so turns to Glare down the resist forms then would one shot the weak ones.
Only have Lavog Water/Wind/Lightning left. Water is a total homosexual because he'll party wipe you on turn 20. Thinking I've been approaching them wrong - will see what happens if Chivalry on turn that stopper is hit, rather than saving them for the end.
>he'll party wipe you on turn 20
That's every Lavog.
I actually found Water to be the easiest Lavog, for a Benedict-focused party anyways.
Any tips for a homie getting swatted down? I think my rotation is off or something. I tried Radias AS, Iphi and Yipha AS with the Benedict.
Nevermind, got the rotation down. Dropped Radias AS for Claude ES using only support abilities.
When does this super exp dungeon event end? I must have missed when this came out.
Probably the 1st or the 4th. You only need 2 runs to max out a manifest, which is pretty nice.
I was hoping to work on Strawboy but needing to wait for the Vortex Eggs is annoying.
Frick Thunder Lavos
That is all
I hate all of them so far but i cannot wait to beat thunders ass with miss coming and orelya with a side of yehaw
From having tried to use a thunder team on it, I can say that using Benedict is much fricking easier.
The robot version is a fricking gay and a half too, but once you understand the mechanic it's pretty simple he has 4 health bars and gets a stack of Frick You every time you hit/debuff him, don't let him have 13 stacks the turn you kill a health bar or you'll get wiped.
Wish it the robot Lavog let you experiment more, but it looks like it expects a single strategy and tolerates nothing else.
What's the Benedict team for Thunder Lavog look like? I figured it would be impossible to stack up enough hits to have him do any meaningful damage
Benedict + AS Yipha + AS Radias + Iphi w/ Slash Zone. Same as every other Lavog. He doesn't need to interact with the unique mechanic, just hit them a few times. Easiest buddies are Tetra/Korobo.
How do I max out strawboy while this xp shit is going on also what the frick is lavog? Is this benedict's time to shine because frick it seems a ton of other hard hitters just frick up the fight on a whim
Just level him to 80 before reincarnating him to get a single light point. Really it probably won't be worth doing that unless he gets an update or something.
what if I just like strawboy + everyone else is maxed
Then you're in the same boat as me (except I don't have anybody maxed).
Now's the time to make sure you've got Aldo at at least 80.
It takes me no time at all to max him out thanks to self improvement grasta
>Is this benedict's time to shine
Yes, he can stomp every one of them as long as he has a tank, slash zone and yipha AS.
Anyone know where the final five Growth Cores are? I've gotten all the ones listed for the ocean salvage points and have beaten all the kaiju but Lavog final.
N/M - checked the JP wiki. Global one misses that there are 5 in the desert and 5 in the mine.
How long til we get characters who can invoke and awaken (make severe) environmental effects? Seems like the next logical step.
I have to say it's only fair we start getting characters that can bypass auras. Also I swear to frick lavog has immunity from poisons and pains that are supposed to bypass.
>Also I swear to frick lavog has immunity from poisons and pains that are supposed to bypass.
He has a stack of status immunity and some versions cleanse status in addition to debuffs at end of turn. The fights would be total bullshit if you couldn't kill them all in 6-12 turns with Benedict. Deeply unenjoyable though. At least the Tower Master allows a bit of creativity. Lavog demands you beat it one way.
The "totally not the crystal theme from FF4" music that the Gardens of Bliss have is quite good.
Next update when?
Likely the 5th, given that's when the campaign ends and we're do for another producer's letter.
has the steam port improved?
t minus 1 hour until Orleya AS announcement, save the keys in the shop
What's her deal, song tank?
Prayer tank, makes enemies' attacks Thunder elemental, gives herself Cover, has a bunch of effects to make her take less Thunder damage.
Restores AF at the end of every turn, can awaken zone. Prayer restores HP every turn, restores status, gives herself a shield, and cuts damage recieved in half.
who the frick did orleya suck off to have both her styles be so fricking good
To be fair every Apocrypha headliner is absolutely fricking busted. Orleya might actually be the least versatile of the lot.
Okay versatile might be the wrong word when Sesta's whole deal is haha wind damage printer go brrr
>no notice
well shit, Felmina ES is ending tomorrow and I was expecting Orelya would replace her.
There's still a chance that the notice is in 23 hours and we'll get the Treatises added to the pool before weekly reset
Probably busy working on the dimension merge
Producer letter:
https://api-ap.another-eden.games/asset/notice_v2/view/466?language=en
https://api-ap.another-eden.games/asset/notice_v2/view/467?language=en
Orleya AS, new Astral Tome fights, Daily Key chest is back for more AD farming, 1000 bonus CS for Uquaji, 600 bonus CS for Boss Rush - 1600 total if you already beat all of them.
About 12 hours between Treatises being added and weekly keys reseting
oh right and Kamlanangle's AD is gonna be added too.
More stones and keys are always welcome. Sounds like the exp dungeon boost may be staying around?
It should be staying around until we're synced up with Japan.
Judging by update history, JP gets 2/month, we get 3/month.
We should get 6* Aldo at the end of November, then JP's 2 November updates should be our first 2 December ones, JP's 1st December should be our last December, JP's 2nd December should be our first January, JP's first January should be our 2nd January, and then we sync up at the end of January.
So we should have the boosted exp dungeon until the last week or so of January, and then have no prior knowledge about future updates.
also
my time with keys was wrong
it should be like an hour between the update and the reset so it'll be a close call if you're saving keys for Orleya Treatises, and if the title screen update takes half an hour+ you could get screwed out of some of them
I blame DST and possibly another Gacha for messing up my times.
>we sync up at the end of January.
Which would coincidentally be the GL anniversary, right?
yeah
New update is up on IOS - looks like they fricked up a bit and included the cheevo for Stellar Awakening and the new episode info in the catalog (all in jap) as well as giving out Alt Myunfa's 10 discover name gems again. Last one is a bit odd.
>28 mails
oh boy they couldn't have done this any less efficiently
at least I'm up above 5k stones now
Grats to everyone on their big influx of stones.
I think this is the gayest pull I've ever had
Cute boys.
hmm
In other news, rainbow sisters need a bria to their crew and the best candidate is the one with the ominous lore.
The knights all are pretty nice looking too
I would like to see your cats. Pretty please
I was bored, so I did a paid roll on the fateful banner.
man his portrait looks so fricking generic
Thunder? Figured he'd be water or crystal.
That design reminds me a lot of Charlemagne from FGO, just with blue highlights instead of white. He looks like he has a pretty solid kit though. Him, AS Orleya, Velette and Kamlanage should make for a really strong, solid Thunder team.
>gacha banners only until November 21
It's much shorter than Serius banners
Why couldn't he be water?
Because Thunder is the new hotness.
We need a dedicated Crystal DPS. Alma and Alt Dewbert don't count because they're both flexible.
I feel dirty for buying crystals. I guess at least it's well spent.
It's weird he can buff Katana damage in Awakened Thunder Zone but he and Victor are the only Katana Thunder units.
https://twitter.com/teki_AE/status/1722586825993474416
Maybe I should get Orleya on next SDE
Will they add Casino? Tfw he only talks about Shigure and Shion after finished his character story
https://twitter.com/ryzewakawaii/status/1722222787816042830
Why would someone do this?
I still kneel
am i bricked
I'm jealous.
Sesta is one of the strongest characters in the game, and Melody AS is one of her best supporters.
Ruina AS isn't terribly strong, although once you're strong enough to get her her Manifest she becomes a lot better.
Soira is a pretty mediocre tank, but becomes top tier when you get her AS.
Just Sesta on her own can get you through 95+% of non-superbosses as long as you have 3 other Wind characters on the frontline.
Sesta can probably smash through everything regardless of your party, but to optimize it I'd replace Ruina/Soira with Morgana and Noahxis/Amy. The former for a Wind buff and the latter for a Phys Resist debuff.
yea I was just using soira because my only other wind unit is Sevyn
Waiting characters like Sesta for other elements
I didn't realize I got a free pull with the trial subscription. I managed to get Yipha AS too.
Also Sesta's really cute I like her whole "Having people to talk to is new to me but I'm trying my best" deal (I just got done with main quest 13 and started getting character quests)
Also-also, holy shit her damage goes off the rails once she gets her third attack... The first time I used Another Force I accidentally got the 10m damage achievement and I see it just gets crazier once you unlock more gearing options.
Sesta is absurdly powerful. You're going to dominate with that team. AS Melody can activate Another Zone multiple times, and AS Yipha's buffs are insane. Once you get a wind tank (AS Soira, Garambarrel, or AS Heena) you'll be set for life, at least as long as the boss doesn't null or absorb Wind.
how the heck does absorb work? wiki says Azami absorbs wind in her last 2 fights but Sesta had no trouble one-turning her 5 times in a row
is the wiki just wrong?
Weak > Resist > Null/Absorb
she resists Slash which means Slash+Wind damage is resisted, but Magic+Wind from Melody would be Absorbed.
ohh I see. Thanks.
Sesta + AS Melody is an absurd combination. You'll be able to trash most of the game with those two. Congrats on easy mode.
Why do I need so many Water Sealants for the Plasma gear when the drop rate is fricking asscheeks.
I think this is the first gacha game I've tried where I actually read the story / quest stuff. Thanks for keeping this thread around I wouldn't have found this game without it.
The main story and both Mythos are great, the Episodes are pretty good as well, character quests are hit or miss they're either really great character development or they're status quo complete filler.
This is the only "gacha" that feels like a real game. I tried that sidorica game and it runs like shit at random set increments and the story pacing is ass and tied to some account level shit that forces you to just play at their pace. I really hated that part of it but this game is good about letting you play at your pace and deserves the title of rpg.
Even the collabs in this are handled exceptionally well with keeping tied to the story.
>Even the collabs in this are handled exceptionally well with keeping tied to the story.
One of the reasons I really hope we get a Chrono Trigger crossover - the CC crossover ended up directly foreshadowing part 3 and the whole Lavog/Lavoger thing points in that direction very hard. If we get a World Revolution remix out of the music team, I can let the game EoS fully satisfied.
Indeed
The opposite for me.
Lol wtf this sounds busted
This will be good on Sesta
That sounds pretty wild. I wonder how much exactly. I'm guessing the optimal grasta ore setup for her will be Bullseye, Rose With Thorn and Awakened Zone.
Here's my test.
>AS Melody uses Depravity to debuff and apply poison
>AS Yipha uses B.Bua to buff Sesta
*it contributes more to dps in 1T than faith
>AS Kikyo uses Wheel Charge to apply slash debuff
>Limil attacks to give +15% slash buff
>Sesta uses Twinblade Wolf
Owari da...
>poison
Pain*
Here's what the damage was when I swapped out the new ore with just a plain 30% pain grasta.
The new ore is like a +14-15% in damage.
Here's with a 2T setup.
I could probably get better dps results if I had the Dryad spear and ring with the new max hp dmg+ (wind) grasta.
RNG needs to send me approximately 1 more Erinyes codex and 3 more Not Gay Dunarith Opuses.
>3 more Not Gay Dunarith Opuses
Tfw I already had 4 of that somehow but still only 1 of Ilulu Alter Opus and 0 of Myunfa Alter
E-mail me one. I just upgraded to ES Tuba today. Sitting on 0 Myunfa Alt opuses but also have no superbosses left so this is all for personal gratification
>use lele's miracle mode and tribute to copy mighty's hypnoblizzard
>it does one hit, at only half the damage of one of his hits
Am I fricking illiterate. I thought Tribute copied the attack at double the power.
Hypnoblizzard is weird because it has random hits and power. I think Lele's Tribute will always trigger at the lowest possible damage.
>9 more Light on Curio and 28 more on Ashtear for them both to be 200
2 more grasta slaves almost done, then I can start working on Kamlananage
Congrats. I just finished getting Azami to 255 yesterday, so I've started work on Kam now.
>Entrana sidequick equipment costs a whole Nepeta
fricking homestuck dimension bullshit
you will get nothing from me
my nepetas are for grasta and then weapon upgrade items
It's probably trash like Omegopolis AD sidekick equipment was anyway.

I thought the gears which change Hyuga skills are unreleased
they were until a couple days ago when the new AD came out
I wonder if I missed something since Hyuga needs equipment like Armored Claw but the ones in the new AD are just Necklaces
>next big JP stream in December 5
>buy 6* tomes for old characters with 400 Tsubura gems (2 max while 3 of them are needed)
>extra bonus for subscription like extra Tsubura gems and AD skip ticket
iirc we'll get a free tome if we already have the character prior to their 6* awakening, so that's 800 Tsubura gems to instantly unlock their 6* frick me that's a hefty cost
Although one thing I have to hope there's a JP player that can answer once Suzette and Tsukiha get their 6* boards, does only having their 4.5* count for the free tome or do you REQUIRE their 5*?
Fortunately we got 5* Tsukiha for free so I don't have to worry about her anymore, but I still have five 4.5*s who I might have to prioritize upgrading if you need their 5* form for a tome
I dread the next few months of power-creep. As the game edges towards EOS (end of 2025), there will be more and more incentive for WFS to intensify their israeliteery.
Hoping I don't need to waste 5 CS to test it. I already have her 5* AS version unlocked although I'm not sure that count.
The forms are considered separate, per the star awakening UI. You'll need the NS at 5*. There will be 6* AS/ES eventually and they will require separate unlocks.
You need to own their 5* version before the update according to the news. You get nothing if you upgrade her after the update.
>need to waste 5 CS to get one free 6* mats
>probably still won't use her because Sesta + AS Melody + AS Yipha are currently enough for most Wind stuff
Having an ignore defense skill + another barrier pierce option (Stella Burst only for the latter) sounds nice but doesn't seem worth 5 CS
It's just 5. Surely you're swimming in them.
They're upgrading her regular attack skills too.
>her unique skill now has same effect with AS Melody Depravity skill except it deals some damage
>a skill with damage x5 when Max HP
>deploy Wind Zone when AS Melody already do that
Still doesn't seem it's worth 5 CS
Did you miss the part where
>Demonic Thrust - True Manifest Effect added to base version. Manifest Weapon skills version will be improved.
>Dragoon Assault - True Manifest Effect added to base version. Manifest weapon skills version will be improved.
In other words they'll be improving her bread and butter attacks, adding more bonuses on top of the True Manifest version (which is now going to be the base version) while also improving all of her other skills. Depending on how what sort of improvement you see added to Demonic Thrust and Dragoon Assault, she could easily end up in a position as one of the strongest Wind damage dealers. Again.
I said Sesta + AS Melody + AS Yipha are currently enough for most Wind stuff. I guess Suzette is worth it if someone doesn't have Sesta and/or AS Melody.
I really wish I could just have another altena at this point that didn't have a shit kit.
Finally got the 3rd Codex to drop so I could buy the last 2 for her.
>Gariyu tome done
>Ensemble tome done
>This shithead done
Best girl has kept her title for 4 years now.
Her AS is still one of the worst
eh, it had its uses back when otherlands was a thing you actively did for the shiny mobs due to have a preemptive stun skill
>20th/55 total AS
>14 of the AS released before her have Manifest weapons
Her AS was released in May of 2020, and at the time had the niche of being the only Preemptive skill, back when a 300% modifier was actually decent, and when endgame was Otherlands Shiny farming which Felmina AS was perfect for due to both having a preemptive skill, but it also Stunning.
If we're looking at her in 2023 then yes she's hot garbage now, but pre-August of 2021 when we got both UAD for Falcon Grasta and Tsubame AS for Ningi: Resshusen, Felmina AS's best competition was Heena. Who, to be fair, had a 440% preemptive AoE compared to Felmina's 320% and had an 80% chance to drop speed by 50% instead of a Stun so Heena was probably better than Felmina AS at the time, but let's also not forget that MP consumption was also a thing you had to be mindful of back then.
Felmina AS gets 8 uses of Ballet Eclatant, or ~8.5 if she's 5+ Shadow for the extra 20 MP. Heena only gets ~7.75 Karakuri Tempests,
Before taking any gear into account, Felmina could AoE 8 trash mob fights, eat food, AoE the remaining 7 plus a horror. Heena could only AoE 14/15 trash mobs.
Hell I remember gearing Felmina AS to clear all the trash in City of Lost Paradise, waaay back when Clarte AS first came out.
These days? Of course you'd use Falcon Grasta/Badge/weapon on a Sesta, or a Minalca, or a Flammelapis with your frontline Toova Alter or Velette making MP costs 0, or a backline Otoha AS keeping you topped up.
Felmina AS is in dire need of a manifest to bring her up to modern power levels.
But she's only "still" one of the worst in comparison to around a year after her release, while other old AS have gotten their own Manifests to bring them up to par.
At her release? She was solid, and the only one who filled her niche.
Also her AS still has one of the best outfits.
Oh they stealth added some QoL for using Exp scrolls.
Instead of incrementing one at a time when you hold the arrow, they instead go 10 at a time. Doesn't matter that much right now, but I was expecting something like this would happen with how many thousands of scrolls level 100 takes.
>Doing Velette's quests
>Gunce is a girl
Huh
How good is Pom AS?
Good enough
More stamp rewards when?
I've already dumped an approximate of 11k+ stone for Orleya banner as of today without getting her.
Well frick Kikyo's second manifest fight. Which characters have 100% accurate attacks?
That's rough buddy. Do you not have her NS?
I didn't even have her 4.5* version
>Which characters have 100% accurate attacks?
I don't think they exist since we can't buff/debuff accuracy normally. It isn't true manifest difficulty so just nuke her with AF when she has clone
I was trying the tried and true "throw Benedict at it" strategy.
>"throw Benedict at it" strategy.
Let my def buffs lapse last time.
Benedict/AS Yipha/ES Claude/AS Necoco/Grasta Slave/Kikyo
>managed to grind 1k gems again
>got Orleya 5* NS version
Finally. Hoping it won't take much time to get at least one more of her AS Treatise to sidegrade her since I already had two. I think I'm only missing Eva now (excluding Alter units).
I forgot to open the extra keys chest yesterday and today it doesn't appear at all. Did I frick up something?
No, it's ended.
My bad for thinking I could actually catch up. Well that and not slowly reading every notice.

lol, sega forgot this property existed so I doubt it.
Gonna be another P5 collab. We'll be getting Futaba as a sidekick unit.
Last time you got to play as this chick was in a star ocean game. I think that was the ONLY time she was playable actually in something.
I really hope it's P1 instead. Been playing it recently, and it's been really great. It'd also give personagays the one single instance where we get a huge generational crossover beyond the usual 3-5.
Never going to happen.
moron
about as likely as a dragonball collab at this point.
fatlus is lost
Also if they were going to do Persona again they'd most likely do 3's reboot or Tactica, as crossovers are fundamentally advertising based.
Given how money-grubbing WFS has been lately, they might do one of their other games like Heaven Burns Red or something, which would be pretty fricking lame.
Besides the huge influx of paid banners that's been the trend for a long while now and the subscriptions, what other israeliteery has popped up?
1) banners now run 2 weeks instead of a month and half
2) six star characters and all the associated downstream bullshit
3) new chapters and events being incredibly stingy with stones (ie all six lavog bosses ultimately giving 50 stones total)
1) Paid banners or regular? I never paid attention to how long banners are up. If the latter, that does kind of suck.
2) You have to pull the featured character at 5* to get a Starchart, right? And it's 3 Starcharts to Stellar Awaken. I'd agree it's scummy, but who the frick besides whales ever pulled for a character multiple times from a single banner. And I thought it was common practice not to pull on anything besides new characters, and most recent banners have been alternate Styles.
3) Didn't we usually only get 50 per achievement? 100 stone achievements are pretty rare. Even some older superbosses give only 50 stones.
>concert
Anon it's a Symphony, which means crossover.
Hoping for Chrono Trigger
I wonder if it's still a jrpg ip
The recent survey about future collab had anime, fighting games and dark souls in it and they already admitted that getting a permanent gachaless collab is hard.
If it's anime i hope it's eva. They collab with anything and was missing from the survey.
>guaranteed 4.5+ gives 4 light to Shion and 4 shadow to Tsukiha
Just 35 (or 20 with items) more shadow and she'll be 255
congratulations
>still need 550 fish stones to get Dimensional Hook

heh
>have Master Reel and max level 30 Rod now
>still need 470 fish stones
I kneel to levia gods
>Trying to get one more Cat Ema in PGAD

I hate RNG shit like this.
Got Levia and unlocked her AS. I don't know if I'm going to bother with harpoon fishing.
So no free universal 6* mats? Only through subscription? Utter israeliteery.
You can get one those from the free monthly mission quests available to everyone and you can buy them from the tsubura shop, which is also available to everyone. People paying for the subscription will get an extra one each month.
f2p gets one universal tome per month from monthly trials
subscribers additionally gain fragments which they can combine 10 of into tomes
Tsubara's gems and other things get them as far as I know. Tsubara's gems are not pay nor can you buy them as far as I can tell
Tsubura gems reset tonight. Is it still a good idea to spend them on red and green keys or should I be saving them for the star awakening thingies?
I'm still buying keys since I still need some specific Treatise/Codex/Opus. I guess you can just save if you don't need to sidegrade a character.
>got one Necoco AS and Soira AS treatise after buying all of this week red and green key
Not my current targets but at least now I only need one more of those to sidegrade them.
I'm going to keep using them on keys. Gotta farm L/S, gotta get more Treatise/Codecies/Opera, gotta slowly grind out more Chants, and we get 1 free universal 6* tome every month by clearing Trials.
When Suzette/Tsukiha drop, I'd only need to wait 3 months to 6* both of them assuming I don't buy anything with Tsubara Gems which isn't that long at all.
Suzette gods, how do we keep winning? I feel bad for Altena enjoyers though.
She is kinda cute in her interactions with other timelines and is even bold enough to make fun of herself at some point.
The developer said in an older interview that Suzette is the WFS team's favorite character.
good. I still don't have her as or es though but it doesn't matter at this point.
Remember how dissapointed they were when Chiruriru won best girl a few years back?
Not really
I recall them being surprised but not disappointed. Especially that she beat out Aldo, the only time anyone has ever scored higher than him in a poll.
Tfw had to sidegrade ES Felmina to clear Tsukiha true manifest battle. I suck on this game.
How many HP bars does she have?
It looks easier with AS Lele but I don't have her, AS Flamme and Alter Hisumena
3 HP bars and she has an aura in which she gets buffs when attacked by blunt and pierce type attacks.
>can trade starcharts for 10 L/S
now that is interesting
The kinds you get on rolls or the kinds you buy for tsubura's?
Style specific ones
So does this mean further dupe of 6* characters get you a free 10 l/s on top of the 16 you'd get otherwise? I'm still unclear if the starcharts from rolling are items or are auto-applied.
It seems to be only for charts which you bought by Tsubura gems or bonus from doing paid banner.
Getting one 5* dupe automatically increases one gauge but getting a 5* dupe after you awakened them only increases their light/shadow according to banner detail.
Bleh
Only for that specific character or is it just generic items you can give to anyone?
It's generic guiding light/luring shadow everyone of that weapon type can use.
Hmm, this is a great update then. I'll finally 255 Rodeia
You need to waste 400 Tsubura gems (can only exchange each style specific starcharts 2 times max) or 1k paid gems for 1 starchart (bonus for some banners). You can't trade universal ones.
That sounds like an excellent waste of Tsubura gems.
Anything for member 8 of the 7 rainbow sisters
Good luck! You'll need to wait until one of the older First characters gets their Stellar Awakening.
you'd need to wait for Renri, Philo, Kikyo, Nekoko, or Orleya to get their 6* first, or for a new Light Ax unit to come out
Yeah, I know but it'll happen soon I just know it.
Tfw still stuck at 1 Thanatos and 0 Jinni Opus
>tfw 0 opuses from anything after Yakumo
just give me Dunarith opuu you shits
>got 5th Alter Dunarith opus and 3rd Alter Suzette opus today
>still stuck at 1 Thanatos and 0 Jinni Opus
I wish I could trade them with another Opus instead of VC Grasta
EN update in a few hours. You need keys if you want to get points from new episode AD for extra reward. Aldo Astral Archive Hard difficulty needs to be cleared in 3 turns which actually means reach the boss HP stoppers in each turn.
Forgot to mention the difficulty setting affect the drop from special Horrors on the episode in which you need to craft and upgrade the weapons. If you want less grinding to max upgrade the weapons, just set it to Master or Expert if Master is too hard for you before fighting the special Horrors.
The trash mobs drops aren't affected by difficulty so you can just grind them on Beginner if you are lazy like me.
Good luck to anyone doing pulls tonight!
Thanks! Got him on the second ten-pull. I was only planning to toss 3k at him so that worked out way better than I expected it would!
Is he good and do you want dupes now with the new steam system?
https://www.reddit.com/r/AnotherEdenGlobal/comments/1822t38/be_careful_what_you_upgrade_on_cerius_stellar/
I haven't really used him yet. I'm still trying to figure out how I should spend his Stellar points and how to use him. It looks like he's got some really awkwardness in his kit.
The only awkwardness is the barrier pierce which is frankly being over analyzed
Okay. What's the trick for the Aldo Stellar fight? Fight starts, he immediately uses AF and oneshots my team. Even if I use pre-emptive moves, he still goes first and kills everyone.
Aldo needs to be on the frontline. If he's not in the party or in the back row then the enemy Aldo will open with an AF. If you have Aldo in the frontline, then he won't AF.
Can't believe the ole "Hit it with Benedict" strategy works for Aldo's 6* fights
>can't get the 6* tomes from monthly trials yet
it's owari da
Ez lol
And someone was b***hing about this being too hard to get mid stream before even trying.
I don't even have a single SP on Aldo yet
I can't even clear the challenge on Hard with that accursed 3 turn count.
Make a chad team full of high damage characters that can combo with moves that stack buffs then unleash hell , then do it just once more master and go all out.
use radias to tank. use a pain setter and two damage dealers. aldo book fight is really squishy.
Used my last 1k. Got a gold door. It's Shannon AS. I want to die.
I really like Shannon's parents
well that's beside the point.
For some reason the game keep crashing when i start updating.
I also tried on a bunch of emulators and i get the same issue.
Am i missing something? Do i need to change my device language or something?
Get a phone or tablet, poorgay.
But i have the same issue on my phone, it's a black shark 2.
I get the apk straight from the google play store.
This game crashes at random for no fricking reason based on the tiniest difference in phone environment because it's constantly fricking shitting itself with file checks.
Have you reacquired data?
I just boot that shit up till it stops crashing. I'm not that anon but it's common to see this game crash at least 3 times on boot one day and then work completely fine the next.
that happened to me when I installed a bad apk, try getting an apk from elsewhere
Is the new meta play to try to get Wryz to 80 ASAP? She'll most likely get a 6* at the end of the 3rd episode.
Tfw I finished the point ladder and she is still at 11 Light
She should get light at Toto's. I was planning to get Nona to 255 (she's at 230 now) but those extra 3 devotionnne points aren't worth more than a theoretical maxed 6* grid.
Can assume Riica and Helena's 6*s, if they happen, won't be very game changing, but Cyrus always gets the second most stuff after Aldo.
6* Amy please be relevant, I need to justify having her at 255 already.
6* Altena please fix her dogshit kit and make her actually usable.
6* collab characters would be a long shot but it'd be funny
>6* Altena please fix her dogshit kit
NEVER
>We won't be able to get Flaudia
IT'S NOT FRICKING FAIR
I DON'T CARE ABOUT CERIUS OR SHITTY PINK MOEBLOB GIRL I WANT THE COOL LEADER
best I can do is a furbait bara guy
what is the damage calculation for Felmina's Shatterglass? Is it just (210 * Iceburst)% modifier? if so that's kind of fricking insane since it's 2100% on turn 1 with nothing else used beforehand, and a bare minimum of 1050% each subsequent use
nearly a turn 1 Neptune for 0 MP and can be boosted with the Normal Attack grasta
So what's better, Neptune or Shatterglass?
Can someone breakdown the benedict cheese team? I just upgraded him to 5 stars.
Timber for slash resist and slash break and Regular Swing for damage
Yipha uses Faith on him then Beannacht Bua on damage turns and Ath Dochias on Timber turns
some form of tank, Lovely AS and Radias AS are preferred but Prai is usable, to tank the massive hits
Iphi is the best 4th party slot for Blood Contract, Lila for Pain/Poison, Contract for PWR buff
Slash zone grasta on Tank or sometimes Iphi
Cyuca/Yazuki/Felmina ES are the best Grasta slaves for him, for Ax Low HP, Ax Void, and Outlaw grastas
Basic idea's
. I used both Prai and Radias AS, but I think Radias AS can do it herself. I'm assuming Heena AS also works if her dodges proc, but I don't have her to test it out.
Turn 1, I set Pain with whoever, Aldo used Origin Force to clear enemy buffs, Benedict used Timber, and Prai used whatever. I used Biaka AS since she sets for 5 turns.
Turn 2, Prai used Indulgence, Biaka switched out to Radias, setting up Slash Zone to boost Benedict's damage, Benedict used Regular Swing. My Aldo had a Revive grasta to burn turns, as I didn't want him to use up the Slash Breaks Benedict inflicted.
Turn 3 and onwards, Radias spams Chivalry, Aldo spammed Revive for nothing, Benedict continued to unga with Regular Swing. If you want, you can swap Prai out at this point for anyone else, maybe someone who buffs your attack with their VC. Don't recall needing any grasta slaves. Sophia's there just for show.
I used AS Yipha, Aldo, AS Radias and Benedict.
Turn 1 AF, have Yipha provide both of her buffs, Radias use Chivalry and throw down overwhelm and her counter, Benedict uses Timber and Normal Swing
Turn 2 Aldo uses Origin Force, Radias Chivalries again, Yipha Faiths Benedict, Benedict Normal Swings
Turn 3 Aldo does whatever, Radias Chivalry, Yipha buffs att stats (Beunacht Beau not spelled right) Benedict Normal Swings
Last two turns you AF him to death
Took me one try
Just tried Aldo's new skill in Stella Burst for the first time. Holy frick, that damage is disgusting. And I'm still a far ways off from even 200 light.
How do you get to the Godspike? I've cleared the episode but when I go to the north of Terrawing I still get "there's no way through the woods"
I can see the bastard floating around back there
Just enter it?
Which area is that?
N/M, got there. I kept trying to enter the woods on Terrawing 2, while that's on Terrawing 1.
Anybody got a team that can one-shot the random trash mobs on Wyrmrest? My Sesta team could one-shot all the trash mobs during Part 3, but she can't do that here. I've been using Aldo and just AFing and it works, but it definitely takes a bit longer.

My Azami has 200 Light, if yours has 255 you might need to adjust Iphi's SPD higher to always outspeed Azami.
If there's any areas other than Windfang, Terrawing, Aquatail, and Flameclaw I haven't been there yet so this setup might not work outside of those 4 areas.
Thanks. That seems to be working well. I got ES Felmina but never really used her. Had no idea she could hit so hard.
Yeah her basic attack is essentially 66% of a Neptune, but comes with the benefit of being 0 MP, innately preemptive, enhanced by the Normal Attack grasta which is ever so slightly more damage than Pain+MP Consumption grasta and her battle start Pain is just gravy.
Replacing her, Benedict, and Rodeia with Flammelapis NS, Tsukiha ES/Isuka ES, and any Staff slave but preferably Nagi ES should also be a viable team to oneshot everything.
Thanks. Seems like Water damage is the trick here.
Oh she's really cute. I can't wait for them to put her in the gacha and then spend all my chrono stones and not get her.
>pink-haired ditzy medic who's good at cooking

You had to fricking jinx it.
I'm officially skipping every single story dialogue and if they don't bring back Flaudia I'm quitting and every single one of WFS's developers should commit seppuku.
Is it worth it to make the upgraded Dragontear (Black) weapons?
>not skipping the normal Dragontear to do fewer mats grinding
You get buff for equipping them when doing battles in the island so why not?
If you got the normal ones, do they linearly upgrade to the Black ones? I noticed you can't buy the black ones for weapons you already have - got black axe for Benedict and want to make the sword for Aldo and eventually the lance for Wryz, but have them in normal.
Can reliably 2 turn the Rulers on Master (except Earth who takes 3 turns due to his stupid shield) using the power of lvl 100/255 Aldo. Team is AS Radias, AS Necoco and ES Claude otherwise. Turn 1 AF to buff/debuff and fill Star meter, then just rape it with Starwyrm Sword at start of next turn. Earth one has a 1 time 100% block so I wait til turn 3 for Kumos to knock it out then starwyrm.
The order is normal -> upgraded normal -> black -> upgraded black. You can just get the black ones directly for fewer grinding.
Their boost is insane but it sucks they'll turn worthless when the episode is over. Does their boost apply to the AD??
They crit/crit dmg up does apply in the AD
Holy frick wait, you can interrupt AF with Stellar Skills?
They showed this off but yes you can and it helps quite a bit in some situations as well as catching your bearings
I refuse to read
It was a video
I wonder if Aldo/Oboro/Necoco AS/Shion or Shigure in Thunder Zone AF with Kaleido would be able to stella burst multiple times
I have no idea, I guess it's time for someone to hit the dummy and see what you can maximize
Once you have the Stellar Board and everything unlocked, how important is it to actually level from 80-100. Is it just additional stat bonuses?
It's about 1 point per stat per level. Very minimal. Seems like it mostly exists to vent High Class Scrolls.
Anybody got any videos for the Wolfpack Manor AD? I'm a morong and suck at using the traps and somehow I have to kill everything with traps if I want the rewards.
You can wipe out the entirety of each wave with one attack. Set up the lures (alarm and washtub) on the nodes to the right and north of the chandelier trap. Wait until 5 enemies have spawned. Hit the lure to the right, wait for enemies to gather there. Then hit the lure to the north. If you do it right, all enemies will be in the chandelier's kill zone, wiping the wave. Repeat.
>clear in 5 turns for all reward
>forced to do at least 3 turns on the boss because it has 2 HP stopper so you must defeat most if not all 15 enemies with the traps (2 battles max)
Worst AD gimmick imo
Benedict clears boss in 2 turns. The gimmicks are simple - you don't need to fight any if you know what you are doing
see
Also the 15 enemies version doesn't give anything extra after the unique rewards - worth same number of points as 10 enemies version
What am I missing?
Collect stuff in caves with ropes then go to the camp
What do you get for killing the death eater? He killed me when I found him once.
Almighty Power (Dragon Killer) Grasta after the 4th battle
Is that once in each elemental area?
The areas don't matter, its random. easiest way to spawn him is to teleport to the Van base and go to the fire zone, If he doesn't attack, teleport back and try again.m in the same spot.
So just pick a random spot in the fire zone and cross it? If he doesn't spawn then rinse and repeat?
His spawn on each map is fixed, the random part is if he is there or not. If he is, he'll always attack the moment you hot that spot the first time you cross it.
On Flameclaw Depths, startingn frok the vanguard camp, go south on the first path and east to the next threeway intersection (the east - south - west one shaped like a T). If he doesn't attack, teleport to the van base and try again. This works for all forms.
>On Flameclaw Depths, startingn frok the vanguard camp, go south on the first path and east to the next threeway intersection (the east - south - west one shaped like a T). If he doesn't attack, teleport to the van base and try again. This works for all forms.
I've been running back and forth there for the last 30 minutes trying to get him to spawn. Must have gone over that spot 50 or 60 times but he won't show up. I already beat his first form last night but I just can't get him to appear anywhere.
You are going to the wrong spot then. The instructions are simple.
Two minor things confirmed:
1) Wryz gets light from Toto's Theater World.
2) Probably goes without saying but the Dragontear weapon boosts DO apply to the associated Tome bosses. Makes the challenge level less imposing.
God I fricking hate time gated equipment grinds
Just let me get the fricking dragon tears
Do they even matter?
Not really but maxed they triple your damage in all Wryz related maps/ADs/tomes. Wouldn't be surprised if side content was gated behind them later, giveb the unbreakable rock in the Wind map.
I'd rather take time-gated drops than inconsistent ones. Trying to finish Vaporia equipment or get the fricking Rinde Sunfish and Rolling Turtle are absolute hell since the materials and spawns are never guaranteed.
dragon tears are child's play. Not as bad as raising strawboy
Death eater is fricking annoying. He gets stronger with each encounter. How do you kill him?
I lied, the coffee was hot.
Go frick yourself, butthole.
>someone gives you a hint on how they destroyed death eater that everyone has access to
>go frick yourself
ok enjoy suffering.
How the frick is le coffee = hot a fricking hint? It sounded more like sarcastic buttholery like, "hurr durr no shit it's hard like coffee is hot, moron." I'll just read his fricking status page and optimize a team around that I guess.
not my problem, you went off the rails for no reason at all.
>this is supposed to be a hint

Just accept your defeat and move on
>not speaking in my cryptic moron language means you're defeated

Is that Lloyd?
It's actually...
https://youtube.com/shorts/BY2eFTQiYL4?si=L_GGsQoOhh4WpMBJ
Yes, Detective Lloyd Bannings with the Crossbell Police Department.
Lindwyrm 2 is some severe bullshit.
Wait until you see the 4th version. 🙂
Can't that fairly easily be Yakumo'd? I think I'm trying to be too fancy by using Aldo. Time for God's Blunt Instrument (Slash), Benedict to take center stage.
2 and 3rd got Benedict'd very easily. Fourth died like an utter b***h to Yakumo, who took out an entire HP bar in the first hit of Deletion. No special trick either, just Ipha, AS Yipha and a tank (I used Radias but anyone would work).
Good to see my girl Suzette back on top where she belongs.
I'm finally going to chant AS Yipha as she was my first 5 character and got me through noob town when all I had was basic chars and 4 miya cumming with every attack
Make sure to get her a maxed Time Restored Hammer for the SPR bonus.
I'll be sure to work on that
Are there any "one size fits all" teams to easily clear phase shifts on Master in either of the Hollow eras?
Starky + damage and supports.
Fricker puts everything asleep and most of them are helpless to stop him.
Also with Aldo's 6* passives you can get 100% AF at the start of every battle, so maybe plan around that.
Sesta + AS Biaka + NS Suzette + Cynthia AS can oneshot everything but bosses in Hollow Part 2. Part 1 you need various teams since different mob packs have various absorbs and null. With anyone who can give you starting AF (Aldo, Flammelapis AS, etc) you can just put a team with a bunch of different damage and element types and AF your way through every fight.
Does anyone know how Misty AS's "use the same move" song interacts with skills that go off multiple times? Trying to see if I can use Cerius as a rape button ala Yakumo for challenge tomes.
It does not, iirc. Only goes by turn to turn.
Did they censor the alcohol from Cerius' quests or is he eating spicy things in JP as well?
He was eating spicy things. That's why he has the Spicy Lover trait.
Spicy Lover also refers to alcohol in JP. 甘党 can mean both sweet tooth and sober, while "辛党" which is the personality can mean both spicy lover and drink lover/alcoholic.
Yipha, for example, is 辛党 because she gets fricking PLASTERED in her character quests, Hozuki owns a tavern, and Miranda and Dunarith Alter are both frequent patrons of taverns.
I don't recall anything related to Shigure drinking or eating spicy food, and haven't done Daisy or Iphi's quests yet.
Regular.
Cerius's regular banner has 11 D Left.
AS Pom and AS Orelya have 47 D and 38 D respectively.
heck, VELETTE'S banner won't end until 6 days after Cerius's ends.
Actually, his paid banner is also shorter. It also has 11 D Left, while AS Pom's paid banner has 17 D Left, so the typically short paid banner is now even shorter, and the typically 2 month long free banner is now 2 weeks.
If you don't get Cerius on his banner, you will only get 1 starchart for pulling him at 5*. If you get him on his banner, you get all 3 for 5*. And of course if you get his 4.5* you get none of them, and the "at least I can upgrade him!" mentality we used to have upgrading 4.5* to 5* is now "god dammit this is another month of trials for the extra star chart, or 400 Tsubara Gems to buy it"
Lavog is 5 superbosses plus a Megalovania boss. Other superbosses that you had to fight 5 times, like the Azami recruit, the Riica Deluxe, heck even the Tales Elemental Lords all gave out 50 CS PER SUPERBOSS. For 200-250 over 4-5 fights.
Sometimes the last fight or 2 would even give 100 CS because they were harder than the first few.
>If you don't get Cerius on his banner, you will only get 1 starchart for pulling him at 5*. If you get him on his banner, you get all 3 for 5*.

New characters like Cerius and Oboro don't have buyable starcharts (yet). Only old characters like Suzette and Tsukiha do. They said they'll be implemented after a while, which could mean a month, could mean a few months.
Speaking of Suzette and Tsukiha, their upcoming free banners don't have a pick up bonus, so you'll have to roll them at 5* twice on the banner to 6* them, assuming you already had them.
>paid banners which give guaranteed Suzette/Tsukiha + 1 of their chart as bonus
Pay up, goyim.
My real anxiety is the free characters. I will punch myself in the balls if the crossover is Tales or Persona part 3 where they get a 6*, haven't given those frickers any l/s. Meanwhile if it's Chrono Cross part 3 (part 2 was Starky), I'll be sitting pretty as I have them all at 80 l/s, except Serge, who kinda sucks.
I have cl(r)ess at like 60 because I still use him in some comps involving me using his High ougi in afs for the kill
I don't care what anyone says, nothing was worse than murphy at the time.
The worms were way worse.
The worms were funny but I actually just used thunderchad pipeman to carry me on that fight.
ENTER TIRAMISU
Yeah, I used her and AS Radica and it was a joke. Hardest one for me was Quadoxin. Took me months before powercreep let me beat it.
hehe, I beat his ass with a funny tag team but after that I also decided to hit him with the tales of special and it just fricking kills him instantly.
I ended up using ES Melina's Finisher damage and a combo% team.
Kind of neat how you can Stellar Burst twice in the same AF.

Skill issue
The rewards suck so who cares
Is there a way to get more of the large Dragontears after finishing the story? I played on Veteran because I wasn’t sure if I could handle Master difficulty.
Kill the large horrors (I think they respawn every 6 hours) on Expert or Master although you only get 1 large tear on Expert
Master difficulty is easy. Get Aldo 6*'d, bring a team of Light characters, AF, drop slash zone, spam slash attacks til the Stellar Burst gauge is full, use Starwyrm Slash, which will kill them.
>use Starwyrm Slash, which will kill them.
In Stellar Burst
So I just realized I'm an idiot. I didn't understand how Stellar Burst worked. I thought you hit the one button to trigger it, then you were supposed to hit the Burst button. But you need to actually select skills for your Stellar characters. If you don't pick skills they just do an auto-attack and I couldn't figure out what the point is. But if you manually select which skill to use, then you can use something like Aldo's Starwyrm Slash and he does crazy fricking damage.
Anyone have info on the new episode AD like enemy weaknesses/resistances? I’d rather not just go into it blind.
Except the end boss of it, all the maps are elementally coded with the weaknesses/resistances you would expect. 6*'d Aldo can rape everything instantly on Master.
Misread AD as episode: Very Hard dungeon can be Benedict'd with autopoison pain and an attack buff.
Before the new collab ruins your current plans, whose light/shadow are you working on right now? My current projects are Mayu and Nona, both at about 240, and Colette at 110.
I’m working on Azami and Wryz with and ad keys I get, while my regular keys are used for Cerrine and Helena.
Just switched from Nona (220ish) to Wryz (14ish)
Wyrz. I figure she's gonna get Stellar Boards when Wyrmrest ends so at least getting her to 80 will be a good idea.
62 (maybe 60) is enough to get everything but the HP/MP Ups, assuming all boards are laid out the same.
Might as well hit the 80 for the extra skill slot.
If you plan to use her for damage, may as well hit 200 for the extra grasta slot.
I'm running Man Eating Marsh not for Cyrus light, but for VC Grastas. Although he has gotten about a dozen light off of it so far.
eva bout to be 255 strictly because I love her story.
Prasia is next.
How'd you manage that? Good money says she gets and AS or 6* tied to the Wryz arc.
Dedication and saving
I have not finished 80% of existing super bosses. They simply filter me. I'm sure that I have the capabilities to actually take them down, but the ways that the mechanics in this game work make them seem nigh u penetrable and embody the worst elements of gachapon game design and powercreep. Weaknesses that aren't conveyed. HP stoppers. Patterson that change. And a myriad of other asinine mechanics.
Have you tried Benedict
>helena
good God why
Because I’m working on maxing out all the story characters.
I haven't unlocked his 5* yet. I assume he's good? I have plenty of powerful characters but I really dislike the grasta system even though I've got plenty of grastas. I just like to smash shit with my 255 Eva and call it a day. Simple as.
Benedict is very easy to a5 and 90000 percent worth it.
>I just like to smash shit with my 255 Eva and call it a day. Simple as.
You get me, I also love waking up to Minalca just choosing violence. Having said that if you have the pieces it doesn't take that long to make a superboss team. If certain key characters weren't allergic to my account I'd have finished the rest.
there's a lot of new superbosses who get pissed off and become immune to everything if you use the wrong element on them
Benedict is non-elemental so he can just chop through without caring about whatever the gimmick is
whereas Eva would need someone to set the right zone and for Necoco AS to make her match the zone, and Eva's Water and Crystal buff/debuff will no longer do anything which means you'd have to bring along someone else to do those buffs and the boss has like 5 hp stoppers and 2 phases which means you'd have to micromanage Eva's Lunatic and every hp stopper breaks zone so you have to re-set it before Necoco can make Eva the right type
Benedict is just no thought, Timber, Swing, Swing, Swing, Timber, Swing, Swing, Swing
My strategic core at this point is ES Claude, AS Yipha, Benedict and poison pain setter, usually Iphi for additional coverage. Destroys 90% of new content.
Aldo is also a fantastic DPS once you 6* him and put him in a party of mostly Light characters. Build up the Burst meter in AF and Starwyrm will kill all Wyrmrest Rulers on Master difficulty.
Yeah, Aldo's damage with Stellar Burst is absurd. I can just one shot everything with him.
I appreciate the replies. It looks like it's time to finish Benedict's Ascension Quest. He sounds perfect.
I was very surprised at how good he is. Also his quests are great.
Is anyone moronic enough to have analyzed 1000 OOPs? Cuz I may be that desperate. What's the meta? Run floors 1-4 and repeat or do full dungeon loops for the 12 items?
To clarify level of desperation: I did the entirely of the cat items/cat photographer shit this week.
You did that yet I see not a single cat pic here other than my own?
Worst part is I'd been skipping the monthly meow coin missions so the 80'cat clothes cheevo is 7 months away
Either doing floor 1-4, or going until 7 for the coins or even doing the boss on 8 if you got lucky and found some level up gems. Anything further starts to take too long.
Put down your final bet for the crossover series
Chrono Black person
Would be cool. Robo, Ayla, Frog and Magus would be the ideal reps.
Star Ocean 2
I hope this is what it is but I'd be happy for chrono trigger fans too if it was that. Geniunely
Monster Hunter
How would this even work? Just get a cat/dog buddy and some fancy weapons? Not like it has a cast of playable characters to draw from.
Did you forget that some of the cast are literally monster hunters? Did you forget the current arc is basically monster hunter but dragon focused?
Literally every weapon creation is also monster hunter in this game.
Also you can in fact play as palico in generations / ultimate
moronic justification
Half the cast is basically monster hunters. I don't see the drama about it from you. I'm not asking for it but I don't see it not being a thing plus there is plenty of cast across the regular and stories games.
Persona 5 again
Ideally it will be Flaudia.
Yio 5 when
Been wanting a Steins;Gate collab since that involves time travel and dimension shenanigans too. Thinking of S;G makes me remember Black Rock Shooter too, and I'd love for that to make a return.
Octopath Traveler
Can’t say I was expecting that.
>Octopath
>only 3 characters
Lmao
>Cyrus from Octopath I, Partitio from Octopath II, and Tithi from the gacha game
Ocotopath Traveler? I never played any of them.
They're alright. FF5 class/level system plus a toned down version of Romancing Saga's progression.
Was kinda hoping for Kuro no Kiseki but this is better than say DanMachi.
Fortunately I don't think they'll ever do an anime collab. They'll just stick to JRPGs.
>releases Dec 7th
Oh cool
[Sad news] Another Eden's Octopath Traveler collaboration will be available for a limited time (5 years)
Damnit I don't have any free time for it til 2029
JP got some ara ara shade girl
Literally who?
She's all floaty and shit so possibly la vampyr
>17 days gacha again
The phrasing in the GL stream makes it sound like Moke will be unlocked via a sidequest, not by getting Chiruriru ES, which is based if true.
Damn, notice confirms that Moke is tied to ES Chiruriru. The moke side quest is just a quest.
Hilarious we are getting sidekick Moke before Noah Moke but I'm happy. Moke love.
>Ice
So I guess she's going to be a Water unit? Kind of funny when the new witch character is Shade and can set Shade Zone. Wish Thille would get an NS Manifest to work with that meta. Guess she'll be the 4th slot character for a Water team (Alter Dunarith, Elseal, ES Felmina and ES Thillilille).
Nah, they're crystals. Look at the background with the mokes chasing israeliteels.
Oh you're right. Looked bluish. Huh. I'm guessing she and AS Alma will get to set Crystal Zone. I guess you can bring those two, ES Mariel and then maybe Starky to tank and have a solid Crystal team. Crystal is such a weird element, since it's only weak and strong to itself. So if you're fighting enemies that are weak to Crystal, because they're Crystal, that means you're also going to be weak to their attacks.
>no new male characters aside the collab ones this time
I guess I can save stones unless she is broken although I prefer a new Crystal unit than Shade
Bro we're getting Oboro tomorrow. Two dudes in a row is like a fricking record for AE.
I'm playing JP version. Surprisingly they didn't announce Awakening for old characters.
AS Alma and ES Thillelille can be awakened according to in-game news
Her banner with free stones is supposedly 1 month long unlike Cerius and Oboro
>When Cursed Words >=50: Removes all Debuffs from all party members

And this is why we wait until the previous thread is about to be pushed off before making the next one.
Frick. I wasn't paying enough attention and accidentally pulled on the paid Oboro banner instead of the free one. Just got a fricking Shion NS.
you fricking moron you goddamn dumbass you absolute buffoon
Someone is mad about wasting stones and getting what, an Elga AS?
Elga AS was a godsend back when I first tackled Future Garulea story. Still have a soft spot for her.
Shion isn't a terrible person to get
Already had him at like Light 130. Frick Shion.
Not my type, I'll go for the dragons like eva
He'll pair nice with aldo
>Suzette whining "A-aldo!" when he's teasing her
Frick she's cute. I wish we had voice acting for all of the dialog, though I understand why AE can't afford it.
2nd free 10-pull. Not bad.
Yakumo finally came home. Welcome, you brooding frick.
You are Yakumo
Can't believe we finally got him
Chad team honestly
So now Aldo has the Sorcerer Ring from the Tales collab, and this new ring from the Octopath collab. I like the idea of Aldo eventually being just covered in bling.
Time to suffer and do Cyrus's upgrade questline. Frick this rock
The octopath shit makes me want to play this game now.
Who do I pick in the starter draw? I'm finding a lot of dated or conflicting info.
limited banners are the way to go and there are free characters that are also really damn good
Starter you want Benedict if he's in it, otherwise pick May.
Benedict is currently the most optimal choice, with his 5* upgrade both being fairly easy to acquire and one of the most useful meta units in the game, being a really strong non-elemental DPS which lets him absolutely frick over bosses which get really mad at you using the "wrong element" by becoming immune to everything and forcing you to start over.
May and Sevyn are both viable, the former also having an easy to acquire 5* board but not as powerful as Benedict while the later is locked behind a very late story chapter+an entire Mythos (side story) and fairly difficult boss but is notable himself for being a powerful DPS+support hybrid who enables f2p Wind teams.
Miyu is probably the next best option because her Extra Style is very strong and her Another Style is also still pretty good. However her issue is unlocking either of those styles is a complete crapshoot because you're reliant on RNG for their Treatise/Codex so you're likely to pull some form of Miyu from the gacha before you're even ready to upgrade her unlike Benedict and May where you could rush their 5* before pulling any banners. But you could also make the argument that you'll get Benedict and May eventually anyways, so getting a 4 Light headstart on Miyu isn't a terrible option; if you get her to 255 Light then any further dupes are converted to Light items you can use on other characters and there are just barely enough guaranteed Light Sword+Lance to get her there.
Ciel is a worse Miyu; no Extra Style means you can't double dip Light items to get to 200+ easily.
Bivette is the only other 4* who you can directly upgrade to 5* and she is garbage.
Benedict >> May=Sevyn > Miyu >> Ciel >>>> Bivette
You'll also get a 4* Healer free pull after chapter 13; Prai is the advised choice because he can be upgraded to 5* and he becomes a fantastic semi-free tank.
>Light items
Should be saving those now due to how 6* boards work.
Thanks for going so in depth.
Another question. I see there's one banner with a guaranteed 5*. Who is the best out of them? I have a feeling guaranteed banners are rare. And since I'm just starting anyway, I figured I might restart a couple times to grab a decent one.
The absolute best for someone starting out would be Hardy AS as he has an extremely potent turn 1 environmental effect (called a Zone), but most are fairly good and would curbstomp the early arcs of the game.
It's really more you DON'T want to get Cetie, Renri or Ciel, as those are ancient characters with extremely outdated kits. Shannon is borderline.
Figures. I got Ciel time. Time for a reroll.
Thanks for the advice.
Picture of who is available in the draw.
Shannon, Ciel, Renri, and Cetie are all fairly outdated, Hardy as well to a degree as we now have a free Flash Stance unit albiet locked behind some superbosses.
Biaka is pretty difficult to recommend as well, since her big damage is only available if the enemy is below 50% health and the amplified poison/pain damage isn't high enough to particularly matter versus harder content.
Cynthia is a really strong option; she needs a decent amount of investment for her HP conditional attack to hit big numbers, but when you gear her properly she can be both a one click dungeon clear and a strong DPS for bosses.
Dewey is another great boss nuker, who can dispell buffs, change his element to match weakness, and deal some really heavy crits, but he's entirely single target focused.
Premaya is a great unit for Earth teams, buffing Earth damage of the party, giving solid survivability with damage barriers, PWR/INT debuffs, type resist, status immunity, and shields, and outputting solid damage once she gets her stacks built, which she does after a single turn if you have 4 Earth characters in the front line.
Philo is the 4th and final character I'd recommend looking for; his unmodified damage sucks but after you Store Power he becomes an absolute monster with some of the highest damage modifiers in the game. You do have to play him a certain way though; he doesn't work very well in Another Force so he's somewhat limiting.
I almost want to recommend the Brilliant Encounter instead of the Ways We Walked, but mathematically on average it's probably better to just go for Ways We Walked since Brilliant Encounter could force you to grind chants and tomes to upgrade, even if rerolling on it could theoretically give you objectively better characters than the Ways We Walked guarantees.
Maybe if AE was a 5 minute reroll instead of like 20 minutes it'd be worth it.
>we now have a free Flash Stance unit albiet locked behind some superbosses.
Locked behind several weeks of play time as it requires all IDA content cleared.
>have ~6K saved up for Oboro
>can’t even try to pull for him because the game crashes every time I try to use the Gallery of Dreams
Turning my iPad off and on again always used to help fix that, but now not even that is working.
Just tanking Challenge Gariyu/Challenge Azami in the astral codex counts for the 190 extra stones.
Try reacquiring data from the help menu on the title screen.
Already tried, it caused my game to crash again before I could go back into the game and hasn’t fixed it.
You should put a support ticket in then.
How long does it normally take for WFS to respond to tickets? I sent mine on Thursday about but still haven’t received any response about it.
3-5 days. They might be especially busy because of the new release. I assume you've tried a full uninstall and reinstall by this point?
I did a fresh install when the update first came out, but I could try again.
Sadly, it didn’t help.
Can you change devices? Maybe load up on the steam version or an emulator?
I transferred my account to my phone, and that finally worked after WFS got back to me to just tell me to do what I had already done. I’m worried that that’s just a temporary solution though.
>what I expected: Octopath Traveler collab
>what I got: Live a Live collab at home
Has anyone figured out how to 6* the Octopath chars? Is it tied to their Tome or is there a superboss set?
seems to be boss rematches+astral archive

Someone is guessing they are from the last boss rematch. It looks much harder compared to the previous 3 boss rematches since you can ignore their gimmick and brute force them.
Looks like a job for Dewey Alter, Necoco and Cyrus.
How can Cyrus help outside of the Water phase? He can't equip the Master Chiaki like Aldo can to deal with the Fire phase and has no Thunder moves
Other Cyrus you silly billy.
Tfw I don't have AS Necoco since I still only have 2 of her treatise.
Stella difficulty is much easier than Aldo Stella battle since its damage is lower + you only need to break it once then AF nuke it.
I hate the fact that shield break is calculated per move rather than per hit like in Octopath proper. If it was per hit, you'd be able to utterly rape this fricker with a much wider variety of characters. As it stands, pretty much limited to Yakumo/Eva.
The AD boss is just bosses from each route, not the last boss so you can just use your usual AD team.
So the Octopath units kinda suck
Do they? I want to see what the archer tank guy can do but I haven't unlocked his higher level skills.
qrd?
>hatman
Partitio's 5* tanking skill just inflicts rage on all enemies, gives a 30% shield to the party and gives him 50% phys resist up.
His other 5* skill is just Arrow of Fortune 3.
His Stellar Skill is a fire pierce attack that heals 2000/3000 HP and gives a 25% Max HP up. In Stellar Burst it gives a single turn of Guard (ala Radias or Prai).
Overall, just a worse Starky.
>MY FOCUS IS UNPARALLELED
Cyrus' 5* skills are
Pursuit of Truth: increases user's weakpoint damage and in fire/water/thunder stance gives 50% type attack up for that element
and
Glacies Claudere: xl water magic attack that swaps element to matches fire/thunder zone
Stellar skill is Magica Synthesis, does three XL hits, one of fire, water and thunder. Order swaps around so the first hit is matches zone. Doubles damage in crit.
In Stellar Burst its damage gets bigger and it guarantees a crit.
Seems to be the strongest of the three, but will want damage %s.
Haven't gotten dancer 5*'d yet but may tonight if I burn some tsubura's for keys.
Wow I must have missed the update where they gave Starky a Guard and made his Rage Ignore Resistance which would actually make him usable, what year did that come out, 2025?
Give Partitio a counter heal like Starky and Radias AS and then we'll talk, but getting Guard every three or fours makes him less usable for that purpose than fricking Prai.
Starky has been the goat for a long ass time now. He was basically required for my trash mob cleanup crew in the mecha world
*three or four turns
The first three boss rematches are pitifully easy - raped them down with ye old Yakumo beam but Benedict would also work.
Final boss rematch is a b***h machine with massive MP drain.
It's dead. Poorly designed as I can't see a reasonable way to beat it with a team centered around the characters it should be designed to showcase.
What team did you use? I wish it's just a harder version of the Stlella difficulty.
>I wish it's just a harder version of the Stlella difficulty.
It is, 4 HP bars, 10 shield per bar, weak to fire, then water, then thunder, then all three on its last bar. Immune to everything else. Only depletes a bar while shield is broken. Big shade attacks, poisons and has a MP drain/bind and can reset buffs/debuffs.
>>game updated
but why
I guess random bugfixes
To announce that they're removing the added teleport locations from the space time rift map node because everyone complained about it.
Thank frick. What the hell were they thinking in the first place?
Is Tithi this dumb in her own game? She keeps saying she doesn't understand shit. Even Aldo wasn't that bad when he first came to Elzion.
Water is wet; she's a bar girl and a woman. Of course she's fricking moronic.
Challenge tome is really easy this time - throw Tithi in the traditional Iphi/AS Flamme/Yakumo core and shade zone it. Easily exceeds score requirement for all rewards.
Dungeon skip tickets cannot come fast enough.
Wouldn't work on the Octopath stuff as it is a "gimmick" (grind) dungeon. You also wouldn't want to use them on the 2 green key dungeons, as they have heightened chances of chant if you pay for the "closed" route
For the green key dungeons, you'll still get sparkles, so you could use the skip tickets like 10 times, get a stash of sparkles and then run the dungeon normally 2 or 3 times to burn them all.
Would they get the Nepeta or whatever equivalent as well? I've still got a few Max HP (Element) and Crystal (Weapon) grasta to farm.
Oh is that what they meant by gimmick? I thought they meant something like toto theater.
harpy
Dead frick gayme
I'm too busy collecting gems and running around to care about shitposting here
It's not even that.
Prospective players cannot find this moronic thread since it's not being bumped.
waiting for Flaudia to be playable or for Wrist Saga to finish up. mostly just playing Reverse 1999 while logging in for dailies
Is reverse 1999 any good? I play blue archive, but I'm looking for something new.
I'd say it depends, personally I like it but I can see some things that would turn people off.
Pros
>Story focused game, with a pretty solid story
>MC is an ACTUAL MC not a boring generic blank slate/silent self-insert
>Tons of cultural references, the devs have obviously done their research
>Good music
>Unique and interesting characters
>EN dub is actually really good rather than typical English speakers pretending to be shitty animu characters. Mostly because the EN voices aren't a dub, but the original and intended way to experience it
Cons
>Pretty terrible translation; was likely done by the Chinese devs themselves rather than any native English speakers. Although the devs have acknowledged it and said they'll work to fix it
>Your typical stamina-stage-progression locked gacha; wake up with 150ish stamina, spend 3 minutes farming event stage on 4x repeat, wait a few more hours to get enough stamina to do more stages
>Upgrade materials are a GRIND outside of the really easy to access Event ones, and some of them are time gated by a monthly in game material shop if you don't spend real money
>Events aren't rerun (as of current CN forecast) so if you start now you'll miss out on 1.1's event
Neutral
>New units are added to future banners 3 updates after they're introduced; not AS good as how AE does it with them being added immediately after their banner ends, but better than gachas that are literally run once and if you don't get them that one run you can never get them again
>iirc the exclusive Gear from events are also added to the shop after 3 updates so you're not screwed out of them, it's just upgrade materials and aesthetics that you'll lose out on
>Decent pity system; you're guaranteed to see a 6* every 70 pulls, and if you don't get the banner unit the next 6* you pull is guaranteed to be the banner one (otherwise it's 50/50 between banner unit and nonbanner) - and pity carries over to future banners as well.
As for gameplay, it's relatively simple but higher tier content does require some thinking.
Battles are typically 3 characters on the field+1 in reserve in case someone dies, every character has 2 skills plus an Ultimate, you get 3 actions per turn to use/move your skill cards, moving 2 of the same card beside eachother merges them to make them stronger. Early content is pretty easy, but Limbo (endgame, 6 stages, 2 battles each stage) is not only more challenging, but after the first battle in a stage it locks out all of the characters you used and you need a completely fresh team for the 2nd battle.
There's also special endgame for Events, where the enemies get supercharged buffs but you ALSO can give your characters similar, and sometimes better, buffs to counter them and on average I'd say it's easier than Limbo.
Finally there are going to be Raids which are 4-man content and it sounds like Raids are going to be the hardest endgame once they get introduced.
There are also minigames that come with events like Sokoban and some puzzles but they're really short and for the most part it's about the battles
>or for Wrist Saga to finish up
Will probably take the rest of the year at this rate. Remember the massive gap between Ocean Palace 2 parts 2 and 3?
if it takes that long hopefully they put up another survey and enough JP players vote Flaudia that they make her playable with part 3
She has a face and a unique battle stance, my bet is she comes back as the vessel of the dark dragon ala the girl Eva copied and eventually becomes playable.
When can we make a new thread?
Been checking out a lot of videos of challenge mode clears and see a lot of people running Mujima weapons instead of Elpis, is there any reason for that?
Astral Archive enemies are hardcoded to a fairly low level, something like 60ish iirc which means Elpis gives a pretty low Overthrow bonus
Dryad weapons are a solid option but they're tough to get and newer than some of the tomes that you might have been looking at
Mujima are also good because turn 1 is typically the AF turn where you set up all of your buffs and get the AF bonus, and then turns 2-5 are your damage turns for score so having higher damage on later turns is good
What's the best banner for a new scrub to throw rolls at right now?
It's a matter of preference. Velette, Cerius, Oboro are powerful but conditional DPS. Of the other banners, Porcelain Pixie > Venus > Sigdrifa. PP is a universal support, Venus is a heavy magic support, while Sigdrifa is a strong but conditional tank.
There's also the Brilliant Encounter which guarantees a character who can become a 5*, which is far more useful for new players than old ones.
Recent developments made Aldo one of the top 5 or so DPS in the game, but you'll need to be very far in the main story for those boosts to come into play.
I would strongly recommend NOT rolling on Venus; Pom is a 4 star character who you will inevitably pull from the gacha and if you run your dungeons every day you'll eventually get her treatises.
Compared to base 5* characters like Orelya who are extremely difficult to pull you'll be swimming in Poms.
Also Cerius is already over because frick the new 6* shit.
If you haven't already pulled the Brilliant Encounter, pull on that for your guaranteed 4.5*+. After that, Oboro and Velette are both going away in about a week, so if you want either of them you don't have too much time to dawdle.
We should be getting Wenefica after Porcelain Pixie's banner ends at Christmas and then we'll be side by side with JP going into the unknown although Alma AS and Thillelille ES are both 'soon' and Alma NS and Thille AS are both solid so even if their new styles are shit you could still roll on them so you can sidegrade.
I'm going to cum all over her face
Do not lewd the moronic dancer.
I haven't beaten any of the latest superbosses since the cat continent came out. I fricking suck at this game; struggling to beat the symphony final boss with his infinite shields.
Literally me. I beat the Symphony boss by spamming weaknesses, then used Aldo's 6* skill to just unga the guy instantly.
Where do I get the collab characters' personal weapons? I found Tithi's, but I'm guessing the other two are in the same dungeon, and I just missed them.
Cyrus: At Atratt Manor 2F Corridor at night, talk to the ghost knight, follow him to Atratt Manor 2F East, talk to him again, get the item he drops, go to the room to the left of him, talk to the Servant Girl, go back out to the Atratt Manor Entry Hall and open the door to the treasury in the middle
Partitio: Ricketts's Manor 2F, you can enter at night
