    It's nice when you create the raid though! I can handle Colossus normal on my own but it's really tedious. And I definitely couldn't do a full Colossus Hard. so it's nice to pop a raid, call for help, and get that free red chest for being the explorer.


    currently need six red scales to progress. can I just say I fucking hate scales? 30 AP per fight and there's only a x% chance I'll even pull a red dragon, much less get the drop. headache city, I might have to spend some ap pots on these next week.

    Dragon quest is a scam. Glad I barely had to run it before I could clear Extreme element dailies.

    Came to bitch about this very thing, now that event raids are gone, have no clue what to do with EP lol. Also i'm assuming the melee char tickets from SF event are for the other SF chars?

    No it's any fist character that you don't have or a fucking garbage book that LBs a RARE character. I'm salty because I got 2 of them

    extreme element you say


    I may have to try this. worst that can happen is I lose and get the AP refunded (WHICH EVERY MOBILE STAMINA-BASED GAME SHOULD DO BTW, CAPITAL LETTERS AND ITALICS AND BOLD FONT FOR EMPHASIS)

    You can't enter until rank 50

    So when I'm setting up my weapon grid, what's the priority order? I assumed it was element, then rarity?

    Yea you'll want to get SR magna weapons with attack passives from the element you're focusing on. Their stats are pretty low so an off-element SSR might still be better until you can MLB the SR.

    Only refunded if you've never cleared it before. If you beat it, then lose (or quit), you won't get the AP back.

    It's a little more complicated than that. Skills are important, and those are tied to rarity. If your team is focused enough (and yours certainly is), you want your entire grid to be the same element, with ATK boosting skills. An SR earth skill weapon will probably do more for you than an SSR off-element weapon. For the more detailed answer: http://gbf-english.proboards.com/thr...on-progression

    What are the scales used for? Uncapping characters?

    Limit breaking and the GW grind mostly.

    So, what's the best way for a Rank 20 to farm the SF events? Any boss I should focus on? I'd like to get the characters first, and then a weapon after, if I can.

    I think you just do highest difficulty you can manage of the bosses, and farm up the stuff. No real secret to it.

    What's your team like?

    BTW, not sure if it's an event thing, but the level 50 Bison apparently doesn't return AP when you lose/quit.

    Oh boo, I thought you always got AP back. Still a nice way to try out a harder dungeon that you haven't beaten though.

    Done three of them, on Hard and those are...hard. Mostly because I don't have a cut skill equipped/heal, but I do have two delays. I'm expecting Very Hard would make me use my Kaguya's revive, but unless it's dropping mostly gold, I don't see how I can complete even one character. I've spent 3.74 hours of AP, and haven't seen one gold drop, and you need 40 to get one of them.

    Try to make your way to the Hawkeye job (Tier 3 Thief). Then you can double up on the treasure hunter skills, or at least equip the 3rd skill in the EX slot. I farmed enough to get the SSR summon two events ago, despite being a complete newbie then, so it should be doable for you as well.

    Drop system is different, if you mean Suzuka event.

    Question about Co-Op - I'm supposed to use three fortuitous feathers, but I can't even buy three of them? Do people just skip those?

    Also, I just barely finished off a Very Hard Necalli, and got four gold drops. I suppose I could use all of these angel weapons, and level my L20 rank weapons for some more stats. Kind of wanted to level up that event point dagger, but that's probably not the best idea atm.
