Is it just me or does 7* BB lvling feel slower than 6*?

RNGesus.

RNGesus.

Well I just never had this much trouble in the past

[Yuri-G]

coming to this game from PAD has its advantages... I got my first metal key and immediately realized "oh, pengdra." and I'm aware enough of the stamina - excuse me, energy - mechanic and ranking up that I was able to complete one of each of the metal dungeons between today and yesterday, and a couple twice.

also rolled Ahvel... apparently he's good? I don't think I need to roll any more units for now.

General guidelines for team building for harder content (not quests or vortex missions)
Reddit Tier Guide for Rare Summon Units

Enjoy slaughtering stuff. Don't fuse away your starter unit, nor your rare summon units. feel free to use/sell/fuse the units you get during the quests. Most of them have only a 3* or 4* form and will be generally outclassed quickly. When you get to the third map, it's possible to capture Lario/Mifune/Weiss/Luna/Zegar/Zephu bosses, and they are pretty decent units since they have 6* forms. You'll eventually want to dabble in the village, upgrade the spheres and synthesis options. There's a trick to use Karma, but get it back. Google it cause I don't remember how it works and I haven't upgraded anything in forever.

Seriously, some of these units have awesome artwork.
Like Zergel, seriously cool.

thanks! I want a Zelnite lol.

ahvel is one of those weird units that has a name change as he evolves. Exvehl is his 6* name and is quite awesome. his BB clears status ailments for a cheap 10 BC cost. His SBB clears and prevents status ailments as well as does decent damage. Definitely one of the higher end units.

Like I said, Zelnite is one of my favorite units. Sadly he's been replaced in the meta-game by Feeva, a new 7* unit for BC generation. Nick, a global exclusive has a better item drop % as well. Zelnite is a great overall unit tho!

[Tyrath]

I refuse to use Nick over Zelntie simply because Zelnite is way cooler.

[Tyrath]

Oh hey the games story just answered the question I had after reading the starter 7* lore. Who killed the 6 heroes?

Spoiler: show

Turns out it was the Dark Figure who has been in the story. Ark.

Fucking truth. Nick's got a better drop rate for items. but Zelnite is a bamf and wins for that reason alone.

Unless you start doing story content that outpaces you, you will forever auto battle story**. Same with most material vortex dungeons as you level up. Real work has to be done in Raid, Trials, etc.

** Places where you get paralyzed badly not counting, assuming you don't have status immunity lead.

For RS units, iirc the point value was something along the lines of...
4* - 200 700
5* - 500 1000
6* - 2,000

edit: updated points with correct value.

Well shit!

Well shit!

This is for JP Achievement Store, but should hopefully apply for us.

Here's where you can turn in Zel, Karma, and unused units (not just RS) for points.

ゼル納入 - Zel Exchange
10,000 zel - 1 point
100,000 zel - 10 points
1,000,000 zel - 100 points
10,000,000 zel - 1000 points

Note - you can only cash in 1000 points worth of zel every day. Not sure when the counter starts.

カルマ納入 - Karma Exchange
5000 karma - 1 point
50,000 karma - 10 points
500,000 karma - 100 points
5,000,000 karma - 1000 points

Note - like Zel, you can only cash in 1000 points worth every day.

ユニット納入 - Unit Exchange
Here you can trade in units for points.
Non-Rare Summon Units:
3☆ - 10 pts
4☆ - 20 pts
5☆ - 30 pts
6☆ - 50 pts
7☆ - 100 pts

Rare Summon Units:
3☆ - 500 pts
4☆ - 700 pts
5☆ - 1000 pts
6☆ - 2000 pts

Each 10 levels increase points by 1.
For example, a 5* maxed Rickel
5☆ at level 80 would give you 300 pts + 8 pts = 308 pts.
For example, a 3* maxed Grafl
3☆ at level 40 would give you 10 pts + 4 pts = 14 pts.

Note 2 - There does seem to be a cap as to how many points you can accumulate this way (納入上限 - Delivery Upper Limit), but I don't know if it's a lifetime total or if it resets. It's 20,000 anyways, and Mifune 6* is only worth 57.

My first aim will be a blaze lance for my Claire. It's a waste of a malice jewel otherwise. So i hope that thing isn't worth a retarded amount.

In the JP store, Claire and Colt's spheres are 4k points each, and you can only buy one of them.

[Purrrfect]

Need like 5 thunder crystals to top off my Orna and I'm out of honor. Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

[Nitsuki]

I dono what to say about this, joined a raid in progress, raid gets beating 5 secs after i joined, dark jewel drops to make a demon shield, finally was able to make a malice jewel. Praise RNGesus

[Tyrath]

Is there a guide for Malice Jewel mat farming? I haven't tried it at all lol.

Six hour maintenance starting at 1:30am PDT until 7:30am. Prepare for extensions and shitty Metal Parade Key compensations!!!!

Edit: before anyone gets excited... From the BF forums

Preparations are being done for Grand Quest and Achievement System. These game features will be available on a later date.

I think this is simply due to do the fact that Gumi/Alim has to push out a client update to incorporate the Achievement System, similiar to when they released Raid Battle. Maybe they had a hiccup trying to get one of the versions (iOS/Google/Amazon) approved to get pushed?

[Hushigoshi]

Annnnnnnnnnnnnd maintenance extended for another three hours until 10:39 PDT. BIG SURPRISE!!!
