I think I must have just missed this when seeing it during the sort of tutorial type moments, but is there a more effective way of beating an enemy that is guarding? Can you only just beat the hell out of it to wear the shield down or is there a specific way to do it more effectively?

Using a focus attack breaks guard shields.

Do we already know what kind of drops to expect from the Halloween event stages ? Wouldnt mind a bunch of light orbs.

You are pretty much getting non-stop abused in that stage...without a OP healer not even worth trying lol.

It's bound to be dark mats, because that's what the enemies will be. That's how it's worked in the game so far.

Yeah, thats expected because of the enemies but there might still be a way for us to get Light orbs during the event. Same way we got Blue orbs from the raid pulls even though the stage itself provided red orbs.

Light Halloween units will be boosted, so thats when you usually when you make the player receive as many Light orbs as possible to encourage them to pull for the Light banner.

But we will see how it works out.

It'll probably be dark orbs from clearing the quests and light orbs out of the raffle box equivalent, just like it was fire/water for the raid event.

As others said, use focus strikes. If that is too difficult, like if you are stuck with an archer or there are a lot of guarding enemies at once, use a dragon. Any hit from a dragon breaks guard.

God I love this game, not sure how I missed this thread. Currently just spending all my stamina running jupiter's trial and saving up my wyrm gems to hopefully pull some nice light buddies when the new banner starts. Should hopefully have enough scales and mana and weapon mats saved up that I can spring into high level co-op stuff from the get go.

I decided to use the single tickets that I had from the raid before the banner change in case it made me loss the extra 5* pity chance and got Hildegarde so I won't have problems surviving the next event. I still hope to get Hallowing Elisanne for extra damage though.

Cheers for this reply and the others! I actually didn't even really understand the force strikes if I'm being honest so this was very helpful. From what I've seen, do your teammates never actually execute them even if they know the ability?

I decided to get the welcome pack and the beginner's pack. Got Xainfried, which is nice, as I would have been very upset to have pulled a dupe of the only 5* character I have (Mikoto).

Time to get in on the daily deal action!

I'm glad it helped.

I've never seen the AI use a focus strike, and the AI is not great in general, so nope, they won't help you there. So it is good to make sure to have focus strikes unlocked on the character you are controlling.

Should I bother with 4 star weapons or just max out 3 stars then move on to 5 stars when smith level is enough?

Been trying to do some Imperial Onslaught Fire and three times now it's crashed right at the end with the treasure. There was one were it completed but it went straight to the level up screen and we didn't even get the treasure.

Did a lot of master wind Onslaught tonight as Verica, which went surprisingly well.

But... oof, the drop rate for the materials kinda sucks. 15/master, which you absolutely can't solo, yet it's 10/level immediately for each dojo. And dojos are the only things that take less than like... 7 hours to level for me currently, so you want a ton on hand, and even if I wait on buying the second dojo for a few weapons that's still going to be very hard to keep up with.

Looks like there was a notice from this morning for that; did they do the update yet? Sounds like in cases like that post-update you will still get items even without seeing the chests.

I've been D/Cing a ton from onslaughts today.

Is there something I should check with my connection? I'd have the occasional disconnect from raids but now it's been almost every time a minute or so in into the mission.

Alright, little nit-picky thing that I don't like. The button in the crafting menu when you don't have sufficient materials says "Confirmation", which I'm sure is being translated from kakunin. Confirmation isn't a verb, making it a weird choice for a button, and it's just a long word that looks bad. It could be "View", "Check", or even "Confirm", but I don't like "Confirmation".
Fear not - this and tons of other fixes should show up in the next update. And we'll continue to make adjustments whenever we find stuff that warrants it. Thanks for your patience early on as we iron out the kinks!

Wow, thanks for the reply! I didn't realize there were devs in the thread. Sorry about the complaint! I've actually been really impressed with the game's localization so far. Everything has a lot of personality.

Are y'all also involved with the voice acting? If so, can you tell the guy who does Berserker's voice he did a great job? I love his victory screen dialogue, lol.

Am I the only one that checks the Canadian iOS app store multiple times each day wishing the game will be listed? I want to IAP already so I can start those daily pulls and purchase the Beginner Bundle. Let me give you my money, CyGames!

Localization's great <3 Thanks a lot it must be a lot of work to localize for a game that will keep getting updated for a long time.

But I have been wondering for a while, why is the binding process called unbind? :thinkingemoji:

Yeah it seems kinda try hard for a process that's been unanimously known as limit breaking in other games, now we have to get used to another term even tho it's the same meaning. Honestly kind of unnecessary.

With today's daily pull I can finally make a mono-Fire team which means I can make a mono team of every element! Not too shabby for only doing three 10-pulls so far.

Probably outsourced to companies like Keywords International or similar ones, unless Nintendo decided to manage the translation internally.

Having a CM posting here makes me doubt so though, with Nintendo stance on interacting with players on social media/forums.


There's also a possibility that Cygames expanded their CS and CM service to include EFIGS (or at least English) speaking staff.

I will consider myself lucky if I get any 5* character. Doesn't even have to be Halloween Elisanne. Please, RNG gods, I beg you.

Based on the re-rolling I did today to get Phoenix on a new account to see how she is, I'm like 90% sure I'm gonna be a whale as soon as the Halloween banner ticks over.

Maybe you'll hit jackpot with the tenfold voucher they are handing out again.

They should give it every event heh.

Quick-Turn options!? I just tested it out, and it's great that we can finally do a sharp turn without the anchor repositioning. Great improvements all around.

Word.

I really hope to get what i need in max 4 multis...are you going all in or do you have a limit ? Hah.
Yeah, I'll probably go all-in, unless I (somehow) get Halloween Elisanne early on. I haven't spent any wyrmite after the initial re-rolling (I only summoned via tickets), so it's long overdue. I'm really nervous though.
