Hm...things are a lot slower this time around then last time. There were a lot more raid events and the HP dropped a lot faster. I'll have to keep an eye on it, but sniping 1 point raids seems like it's going to take a log longer to do.

I'll have to do that daily trick too because that's an easy way to get nuggets.

*edit*
Hm...I left a raid where I did nothing, didn't get any loot, but still lost my EP, though it does say I completed 1/5 of that particular mission. Maybe you have to stay in the raid until it finishes?

Yep; stayed on the screen and didn't get anything this time. Odd that going to the home page made me lose the BP and get credit with no loot.

[BerenTebogo]

Fuck I fell asleep at literally 19/20 for gold nugget and missed it

[BerenTebogo]

Anyone able to help with this Zephyrus? The people joining Ex+ fights dropped off REALLY hard.

Edit: thanks for trying guys! So close

[Greatguardian]

I gotchu fam

edit: or I'll try. 17 minutes left is not a good sign.

Edit2: Damn. That was close. A few more minutes and we would've had it. Sorry, man.

Yeah there was like 40 minutes where just nobody joined and I was tweeting ID and hitting CFH every 10 min and shit. Was really annoying

[RalphTheDwarf]

I tried to help and I got crushed. Not liking this event so far, had a heck of a time getting help for the few raids I started too. I don't feel like I'm going to be able to make much progress. But I'll try to get at least one set of daily objectives done.

[Kachiko]

Do you only get Cardinal bonus from the specific monster listed, or that element. For example, if it is on Xuanwu, does Neptune also get the bonus? Is it even worth doing the bonus compared to Neptune? If I get Xuanwu MVP, it was ~250 per EP spent, but only about 170 without it.

[Greatguardian]

Yes, EX+ of the correct element will get a bonus. Weird note, bonus seems to be based on the time the raid finishes rather than opens. I totally opened a Byakko in the last 8 minutes of his segment and didn't get Cardinal bonus when it ended 5 minutes after his segment ended.

Value of joining an EX+ is going to depend entirely on how much damage you can deal to the thing. More honors means higher multiplier. You'll have to find a sweet spot to determine where your own party's ideal gains are.

[Kachiko]

Ya, it can be slightly better then when MvPin'g the EX+ version. The problem with the lower ones is that some are blitzing from more then half health to dead on one refresh. There's just no competing most times, which again, frustrates me to no end.

[Greatguardian]

Yeah, that would tick me off. That's a large reason why I'm just hosting/solo'ing my own honestly. It's not 100% the most efficient (multiplier caps at around 2.5M damage on Extremes when they have 7.5M HP) but it makes things predictable.

This is what I do and I just CFH at like 65-70% on extremes and either walk away and hope for mvp or do one more round up to chain bursts.

Only raids for non-crew I join are to hit it one time then go away.

[Greatguardian]

Oh my god. Zero pubs in this Zephyrus. I've been fighting solo for the better part of 40 minutes and poured 100M damage into this fucker which is technically on pace but there's practically no chance this much abuse of Morax mode won't kill Magisa long before this thing keels over lol.

Edit: lol fuck this fight. Pubs only bothered to hop in after it'd been ground down to 25-30%.

Spoiler: show

[Kachiko]

LMAO.....

Christina hitting someone with her 'shoe' when an obvious whip cracking noise is heard....

[BerenTebogo]

Sorry GG was out with GF. Would've helped if I could've.

[Greatguardian]

No worries, man. It all turned out alright. I may shy away from popping those EX+s until I have a better grid though, lol. Spending an hour at peak DPS with no breaks just to get the mob to the 1BP entry zone was exhausting.

[Kachiko]

Sounds brutal...

Also, how do the JP like all four Beasts up? I know that without tweetdeck, I wouldn't get jack shit done, as their 'filter' only hides raids that still fill up your limit, so I wonder if they are going to increase the pressure to have a better raid system implemented?

As far as progress is concerned, I'm getting a ton of points by joining 1 point EX+ raids. The highest I got was about 830, though most are in the 200 - 400 range, and using berries is a no brainer, if you focus on the element that gives bonus points. I do love the nugget daily quest; hope its daily and not just a one time thing and is available every day.

I haven't seen much details on the Dark/Light beasts yet, so is there much info on them? Do you have to buy the 15K seals in order to open them? Any info on the drops?

Haven't seen anyone do the light one or have a twitter code for it so don't know what's up with that one. To spawn the dark boss you need to use all 4 talismans and have the latest story island(chapter 69?) to even do it. All the non red box drops are garbage besides it being able to drop 100-500 gacha gems. Red box has more gems and the always so small chance at gold bar. Guy I know already has 3 gold bar drops total, 1 from manics, 1 from baha HL and 1 from hosting Kirin. Luckers reeeeeeee

The fight is pretty annoying. Has 100m~ HP, all summon and weapon passives disabled. HP triggers for 7k damage which will 1 shot most parties now without a holy saber. Immune to non-ele damage so you can't cheese it with Clarisse, Sarasa and Yoda. I've only been able to join one and I was hitting for about 11-15k a hit.

[BerenTebogo]

That sounds awful and like I will just be buying and MLBing weapons.
