    It's good for trials and anywhere you are worried about gauge upkeep more than 15% stat vomit on one of your units.

    Super useful? Nah. Worth having just in case? Yes.

    I stalled at around 1.5 mil myself and then hit 1.71 mil with the 1.5 mil group after just refining of technique.
    I have most of the problems with alpha and kannon I feel, I definitely miss the multi kill on both of those stages (swipe order is something like Reis>chrome>zenia>elza>semira>lebeard (its what i got from testing ground to give me the most damage/round).

    You should absolutely adjust your play to make sure that you get those multikill. You're losing 100k from that alone + some extra from overkill.

    Both of those floors should be 3 TKO. For alpha if your BB/SBB in one turn can drop him below 60% without killing jed you are in a good spot. BB/SBB to get buffs up -> mitigate + single target attack or single target BB on alpha to take him to around 30% ideally -> BB/SBB all to multikill + overkill. Fine tuning will probably be required but it is important.

    Kanon floor is roughly the same thing + a lot of luck. Since Kanon just randomly reduces damage to 1 you're gonna get runs where your first round of SBB drops Kafka to < 50% and Kanon > 50%. If it is a wide disparity like 30% Kafka and 70% Kanon you are most likely fucked. What I did was practice until I got a good score on F1-3 (830-850k or so) and then went in and just idled on the Kanon floor. If I got fucked by random damage reduction I would wipe myself and start over from Floor 4 with an orb use. An ideal run will have Kafka + Kanon both under 30% after Turn 2 so you can multikill + overkill.

    For F5 make sure you are not UBBing on turn 1 unless you are 100% multikilling all 4 on first turn. Better option is to SBB for 2 turns (taking care not to kill any of them, so maybe normal attack here or there) and then UBB nuke them to hell when all 4 are low % on turn 3. Can get 100k+ points from overkill alone if done right.

    Pulled Pheonix and Wyvern (to replace the one I summoned and sold 1.5 years ago) as well as a K&K. And Anima Loch! Huzzah. Rainbow summon was a success finally.

    Forgot how simple life without OFS is. Casually strolled through 22k CA points before my first dead unit, without swapping any units. Literally never need to pay attention.

    So I'm scoring much higher without Charla-based setups in FG on auto than I was with Charla on manual (at least to set SBB order), which I find very strange.

    Charla:
    Avant Lead/Friend
    Charla/Zeru/Gildorf/Rize or Vermillion
    Order: Charla -> Zeru -> Avant #1 -> Auto
    Average ~ 5.7-6.2m over around 8-10 runs 1-20

    Not-Charla:
    Avant Lead/Friend
    Zeru/Reud/Elza/Reis
    Order: Press auto button -> walk away
    Average ~ 6.3-6.75m (with new record high of 7.01m) over 10 runs

    I had thought Charla was the queen of FG, but is this only true for FH? Am I using her wrong somehow? And yes I checked for SBB priority fuckups so that wasn't it.

    Figure I should warn people that may not have done the last fight in the story mode, the one with multiple parts on the boss, to have revives handy or UBB mitigate when all the parts are broken except the main one (that was normally taking 1 damage). The last part falls very fast after that in one SBB (used 5 of them and went down easily). Used trial group for the fight out of fear since hit pretty hard.

    Yeah I went in blind and almost got wrecked. Had to drop 2 revives and finish with 4 people, lol.
