    You deal more damage

    Edit; Rhoa's SBB "Spark Vulnerability" makes targets take an additional 25% damage when you do spark damage on them. So instead of hitting for 1000, you'll hit for 1250 when you spark.

    FFS, End is just a total shit fuck this time around. Low mob count and bosess that say, 'fuck you' if you try to stall to get a reasonable score, because turn five was 2 mobs, and you can't get full SSB on your team.

    That's why I deal with middle. At least because I have the units for it to hit 8-16 million. Usually around 8-10 million.

    I don't think I do:

    Nemethgear, Reis, Vernil, Grahden, Quaid - Zedus/Griff leader. I've done 2.9 million this season, and on 3+ mob turns, I can get 2 million, but with all of these 1, 2 mob turns, I'm doing worse then last season, despite better units and spheres.

    IMO, for you, I would do

    Maxwell Lead (since you cleared her trial)
    Reis
    Quaid
    Grah
    Nemethgear
    Griff/Zedus friend

    for the first two turns, of the first round, pop an attack potion, target the water unit (Merith, Squirty, etc) and have everyone regular attack her. The second round, target the fire unit (Liza, Burny, etc), After these two rounds, hopefully everyone has a full SBB without having to use your Fujin Potions.

    Then use SBB in this order
    Reis, Zedus/Griff friend, Quaid, Grah, Nemethgear, Maxwell.

    Do the same, pop attack potion, then same SBB order as above, for the rest of the fights.

    On single target fights, pop an attack potion, use Nemethgear SBB, and have everyone else regular attack.

    You should have close to full Overdrive Gauge on the third battle (due to 2 rounds of auto attacks on the first fight). If this third battle is a 6 enemy fight (6 nymphs, or spirits), guard everyone for 4 rounds, and your OD gauge should be filled to max. use Nemethgear's UBB.

    This round will look like
    pop an attack potion, activate OD on Nemethgear, use Fujin on Nemethgear, SBB Reis, UBB Nemethgear, SBB Zedus/Griff friend > Quaid > Grah > Maxwell.

    If it's not a 6 person fight, save OD for the 4th or 5th battle, hopefully one of those will be a 6 enemy battle.

    Maxwell has L10 SSB, so I can give it a try. I usually don't have full SSB after just two attack rounds though, but maybe the lower health mobs will give me more OD crystal drops.

    Funny enough, I just ran this set up to test it out on middle.

    Used Amanobaken + Steeple Rose on everyone.

    First two turns of the round ended with everyone short of SBB, so I just pop a fujin on Zedus friend, and Quaid (Grah's BB adds elements so no true need for SBB first round for him other than more damage). Did the SBB order posted above, but used BB instead.

    Second round had 4 targets. (did SBB order)
    Third round had 6 nymphs (did Nemethgear's UBB this round).
    Fourth round has 2 targets. (did SBB order)
    Final round had 6 targets (just did regular SBB order, didn't bother trying to refill OD gauge).

    Finished the run with 8.9 million points. 447,473 Frontier Service points.

    Dun have Amanos/Roses, for all, so I'm using what I feel are my strongest spheres, as I haven't done much CGQ/Trials yet.

    Reis - Blades of Ultor/Demon Sickle
    Nemeth - Divine Stone/Steeple Rose
    Grahden - Obsidion Core/Death Axe
    Quaid - Amano/Royal Bud
    Vernil - Bow of Andaria/Steeple Rose

    I'll give Maxwell Vernil's spheres and see how I do, shortly.

    1rst run was 5.6 million, and the next was 4.2 million, which is better then a lower End score, but far worse then a good one.

    187. Could've gotten more if I didn't fall asleep!

    Anyone have a list of spheres that are not used in better spheres that I can safely sell? Up to date preferably. Google gave me lists that are 10 months old so I'm not sure if they're still applicable.

    "Saga of Heroes"
    "Otherworldly Visitors; Chain Chronicle Collaboration"

    Wonder which one is the CC Grand Quest...

    To unlock the newest Vortex dungeon to get Aludra, you need to have beat the Grand Quest at least once as well as the other two vortex dungeon's level 3 battles.
    Ooooh. i was looking at grand gaia chronicles.
    Wow for fucks sake do they really have to talk after every fucking fight. i sat through the beginning bored out of my mind. thank god for fast forward.
    After fast forwarding for 10 minutes straight on the 2nd one, i realized you could double click it and end the convos instantly -.-
    I cant seem to get more than 50% completion on it though.

    And fuck rare summon. -.- God damn 5th nick.

    Dun summon till God Gate or Avant batch, unless it's a guaranteed 7* pool.

    To get 100% completion, you need to take the 3rd party down the middle route, take the right path at the fork, and then it needs to reach the boss first.

    I think I ask this every season, but what is your team and strat?

    I feel like I dont do well in FH because I dont have Quaid, Kira or Zenia. Are those units even in the FH summon gate?

    I'm using the same team comp as last season and I'm hitting 10-15 million a run and only spending 5ish minutes.

    Kira lead
    Kira friend
    Griff
    Zenia
    Feeva
    Ark

    Pop an attack potion, target to thunder enemy. Auto attack with everyone. Target water enemy, auto attack with everyone except use Zenia's BB to fill everyone's gauge. Every one will have a full SBB at this point except Zenia. pop a fujin on her, SBB Griff, Zenia, then auto attack.

    If there's 6 enemies on stage 3 or 4, I'll use Ark's UBB then, do Griff > Zenia > Auto battle, otherwise stick to the same SBB order.

    I used every orb (except for the last orb that regenerated five minutes before FH ended) and two gems. Finished at 899 rank. This will put me at HR37. Then I just need +4 next season for Eriole.

    So I gave FG another shot, using the following team, but Sefia/Kikuri still killed an 18K leader locked Tridon from hero, to zero, in one round. Andaria also fell before I could finish them off, but I was able to complete Stage five:

    Sargavel Lead
    Narza
    Aruelia
    Andaria
    Hadaron
    Tridon Lead

    Would using Reis be a better leader then Sargavel, or is that extra tankiness better, for trying to finish Stage 6? My damage was pretty low, but I was going for consistent damage and suitability vs more damage. Neither Sefia or Kikuri would get paralyzed/cursed, so either I was unlucky or it's just not a consistent proc to rely on. Makes me wonder if Andaria is sufficient to poison Slime, in round Stage 6.

    Would it be better to focus on some Trials/GCQ to get some better spheres and then try again?

    I got past Kikuri and Sefia once, and I was hyped. Then I ran into a wall literally.

    Andaria's BB (not SBB) has a 70% chance at landing paralyze (for Kikuri) and a 50% chance at landing Poison on Grand Jelly. Now, the other thing to remember is that Hadaron's BB ALSO has a poison effect buff that last for three turns (25% chance). You should be able to poison Grand Jelly and kill him within the 8 (or maybe it was 10, I can't remember) turn limit.

    I honestly feel that Sargavel will be a better lead (than Reis). That way you can use his BB the first turn (so everyone gets the HP boost) and then juggle his SBB with Andaria's SBB to maintain the 30% Ares Buff. All the while, you will be protected from status ailments.

    The hardest part is the final enemy has a DoT so make sure you use Tridon or Aurelia's BB every three turns for the HoT effect to counter the DoT damage.
