    Ahhh, Maxwell. Such fond memories of her. I feel like her trial was probably the best designed trial, at the time of its release. There are no "bullshit RNG" attacks, everything is scripted on turns and attacks based on thresholds. Her attacks also did fixed damage which was cool too. Beating her definitely felt like an accomplishment. Every once in a while I like using the team I beat her with in the past to attempt her again.

    Maxwell is a great free unit for crit based teams. She also offers an elemental bonus damage for all units base element (fire units deal more to water, etc).

    For a free unit, she's awesome.

    Man, i remember it took me 45 turns to beat maxwell, the fight took about 40 minutes. I just did the challenge to beat trial 003 in less than 15 turns, needless to say each boss only lasted 2 turns. Lel how times have changed.

    So, now that I have 6 Doom Rings/Blaze Pearls, and 60 Burrow Fangs (next raid orb), anything else I should try to pick up during the drop rate up? I think I have all of the other sub-raid mats, for 3x Buffer Jewels, for whenever I go after the normal quest items. Maybe RC4-8 Mistzug farming, to work on upgrading Legwalds to Malice?

    Also, Tyrath, I miss your Deimos already.

    Reddit seems to say 'Fujin your Mitigator and BC on Hit units' and have fun. The more 7* the better your results.

    I auto battled it? If you're talking about the new GGC quest that just came out.

    Did Zenia friend, Griff lead, Bestie (BB on hit), Tridon, Melchio, Krantz. Popped fujin on Krantz and Bestie and let it run its course. My understanding is the battle with Sodis is a tough one since he does BB drain; so BB fill on hit is very helpful.

    Kikuri 7* has BB on hit on her SBB. Switch out Deimos friend for Zenia IMO.

    lol...

    So I think I got something like four Ghost Jewels in 7ish runs of RC 4-8...I actually need more of the common drops, for my four Legwalds, but I'm still missing 3 Queen Jewels, so I'll give those a shot.

    Question about Celgrad drop rates, as I go through the quests; I'm getting a lot less drops, with Thief Bracelet, then I have in Grand Gia. Is this because the enemies are stronger, and I'm not getting as big an over-kill, or are drop rates just bad here?

    *edit*

    Frontier Hunter Rewards are out now

    Dang, I gained like 3 gems playing on Windows, then swapped back to iOS and it didn't carry over. D:

    No more multitasking Brave and Record at the same time I guess.

    Yup.... it sucks. Right now during increased Raid drops it doesn't matter as much. When drop rates return to normal, what I suggest to do is open up your own room and rush to Balmedia and do your best to knock out the tail before other people join your room!

    Gems don't carry over from platform to platform. But you do get them back when you go back to the other platform. Try to best to collect all your gems on one platform to avoid this. So like if you're doing quests to open new areas, do all the quests on Windows, but before you do the last mission of an area (to clear it), swap to iOS to clear it and get the gem on iOS. Then go back to windows.

    If that's too high maintenance for you, then just realize you'll have a few gems here, and a few other there, and hey look a couple here too!

    Is Alzeon pearl more effective on Tridon or Summoner's Key? Just got one from FH.

    Reddit peeps saying that the tails gotten harder to kill, along with RC5 bosses, so Gumi may have messed something up. I know I'm seeing a bunch of placeholder names, in raid, and just a lot of general connection error issues, since the last patch.

    Tridon's BB requires 33 BC. SBB requires 26 BC more (59 total).

    Alzeon Pearl boost fill rate by 50%. You need 39.33 (so I'd assume 40BC) to fill SBB from an empty gauge. ES gives you 3BC/turn, so effectively you get 4.5 BC. You'd still need 36.33BC (so 37BC) to fill SBB from empty gauge.

    Summoner's Key reduced BC requirement by 20%, making Tridon's SBB require 47 BC (from an empty gauge).
    Even though Summoner Key also gives 2BC/turn, that means you need 45 BC to fill. With Tridon's ES, you get an additional 3BC/turn with Trident equipped, so that knocks it down to 42BC/turn.

    IN CONCLUSION!!!!!

    Alzeon Pearl > Summoner Key.

    What I feel, is that Gumi just made it so that the crit-resistance pieces also have a crit-damage resistance. Before, if you crit-hitted the tail, you'd do your fully calculated critical hit damage. Now it seems if you are able to crit hit, you do a reduced crit hit amount.

    Oh whew. At least I didn't lose it. That's a relief. Wonder why they don't tie it to maybe Facebook.
