>>547937 another thing i wanted to talk about since there is no documentation is Rune gear, it's like genshin but it appears you can't actually upgrade the substats, just reroll them with a rare material. I have noticed that on occasion you can get one that is colored orange? or red and that may be some sort of close to cap feature. If we can't upgrade those then its fairly sad limit on power.

>>547937 geeze I just looked at your runes and am flabbergasted that there is a level 30 on them. No wonder I am struggling a bit. Did you buy into extra energy? There wasn't a way I could make my energy reach your stats I think without doing 10 gem refills a day or something (im not lol)

>>547943 From what I've gathered, the main stats are static, the subs have rarities between white, blue and orange, never seen a red but it might be the best one? You can't enhance them in any other way than the rune stone reroll, but you can lock the subs you want to keep, at the cost of needing extra reroll items. You can use duplicate runes as well. There are also some items that I haven't used yet so idk what they do, but they probably allow to guarantee a higher rarity sub reroll or something like that, they're very rare. For stats speed is a must on every nova, for Tsukuyo you also want as much crit as possible, and ideally crit damage (not crit damage res), and atk % boost or armor pen, or at least flat atk. For a debuffer nova it's effect hit rate or whatever it's called, for healers healing and energy gain, etc, also lategame once you get Icarus a5 the shield subs should become good too. Try to get at least 3 yellow crit runes on your dps, it makes a really big difference. Red rarity is a bitch to farm, have to really get lucky. You need tons of fodder to level up red ones too... Yeah I bought some refills early, and I still get 3 daily because the progress is just way too slow otherwise. I'll probably keep doing that until I have 9 maxed asters.

>>548000 right now i think im stuck in the same doom that almost any free 2 play or low spender is, can't afford to upgrade runes because everything is being absorbed getting aster to level 120, ill post what I have atm

>>548000 Ok this is what a low spender looks like, less than 80 dollars, buying not many energy. Free to play are likely account level 40-45, I'm around 56.

As you can see rune investment is difficult

Also I think the priority on buying from exchange shops...what are your thoughts? I was looking at these: Abyss store: 4 awaken chest, then aster pages, everything else looks irrelevant at this point. Guild store: the Sanctuary Tale, and star jade seem prominintly displayed due to their cost so maybe those first, then exp stones early game, though I can also see buying the runes random pack for ENG set. Dreamland store: Nothing or a sanctuary tale maybe. Constant Supplies: strange item that called Oathrend Effigy, says swaps Nova levels, may be a good way to cahnge Nova, only 100 gems. Emerald store: don't have any currency for this, must be for whales

>>548041 I've spent 5$ so far, but bought a bunch of refills so I'm lv60. Yeah your runes look sad but that's expected if you haven't farmed them, as I said I'd at least get crit runes on your dps, ideally 4 piece soul liberation damage set and 2 piece atk +10%. As for the shop, skill mats in sapphire store are good value, for abyss store I got bunle, summons, skill mats and relic levelup mats, but yes awaken chest is also important, and eventually traction runes. Guild store, again bunle, exp, skill mats and relic enhance mats, rune chests imo are overpriced. Star jade is not needed early on, it's to limit break your asters past level 180 through affection afaik, and you just won't get there in a long time. Sanctuary book is for maxing skill level, that one you might need soon but again, not super relevant early. For dreamland I think the only thing worth buying is emeralds for the emerald store, for 7500 dreamland currency you can get 300 emerald which you can trade for an SSR aster, awaken chests, or a bunch of summons if you want. Gem shop, you can get the aster reset or nova level swap items if you want, the aster reset is not a full refund though afaik so it's best not to rely on that too much. Premium store if you bought paid gems has those rare rune mats I mentioned, seems to be the only reliable way to get them. Can also get the currency for the skin shop there. Those are my thoughts.

>>548041 Also, you can post your box so that I can maybe check if you can do some replacements. How is the Momo + Giratia combo working out for you? If you're not happy with them it might be better to look for a replacement and reset them to get some mats back. Otherwise you might actually want to add more corrosion characters instead like Apophis and a1 Naphee. In general, imo it's better to try to match the roles each Nova has with corresponding Asters. In particular your Kuro looks like she's not really a healer. I know I run Sarah on my energy character but that's temporary lol.

>>548243 Here it is. I did try full corrode and when everything landed it was fine...but you really need those awakenings and skill 10 AND wearing all those corrode accessories and even then I was having to juggle too much. I am eventually going to swap out aster for something similar you have. So yes I got annoyed that corrode has such a tiny window to work and a lot can miss. I'm resisting resetting aster lvls for now as I'm preparing to go for the shield girl and need every gem.

>>548744 As far as awakenings or relics go I got lucky and got Sarah's 1* relic in a 10 roll, giantria is a1, sinkou is a1 due to a double 5* on pity roll.

>>548770 If by shield girl you mean Icarus, don't actually use gems on her banner, work on her slowly through the standard gacha. You should probably get Outlander though, she's the next banner limited and very good (+18 crit buff for your party is the highlight) Also, I know you said you're saving, but Shinkou's relic is really good. Between her, Muu and Sarah you'll have a nice dps core. Well, it's not critical (pun not intended), but relics are pretty cheap at 5.6k for hard pity. Crit is just really good to have. Also since you already got Ampsa, maybe get her a1 soon too since it's where her real power is. In general a lot of SSRs have a really good first dupe, like Sarah, Yettania, Reirei, Ampsa... For ENG asters on Kuro I'd go with Kelsuna, Yettania and Outlander, or if you can't get her then either Princeton or Reirei. Reirei costs a lot of energy though. On Ritsu, I'd use Ampsa, Dia and eventually Icarus, or you could go with Muu and eventually use Cicely or another good dps on your Tsukuyo. Well, consider it I guess. If aster resets refunded everything it wouldn't be so bad, but because they don't, it's kinda important to not invest into characters you won't use...

>>549162 thank you for the tips so far, ill keep you updated here if anything interesting happens.

>>550033 Sure. Shame we didn't get more people though

>>550947 If the game has a guild system, just point them towards this thread.

>>552126 there is, though the chat groups/guild groups in game are draconian censor rules, something as simple as "but" is blocked, all special case characters, periods and slashes. It makes it very hard to communicate anything. To communicate properly would need a discord server, unofficial one for the game I think.

>>549162 do you know who comes after calli? i'm not into her design

As an update I have been raising Flora and you are right, she is completely broken as a 3* Aster. She gave a pretty big boost to the Nova.

>>565302 Sorry, I don't. I heard whispers that it might be picrel but there's no proof. >>568423 Nice, yeah it's surprising just how good she is. I'm here considering bumping Cicely a half-tier down because so much content seems to be under 600 TM including Guild boss and the daily point ladder boss and 600 TM just isn't long enough to profit from her maxed out damage. That rare soul dmg buff and crit chance is probably gonna keep her at the top though. Also it'll probably get better once you got some speed on the runes...

Though it'll never get old seeing her drop these. This was unbuffed too.

>>569652 it really is, 600 or less seems to be the framework on a lot of stuff, except for a few 1200 timers.

>>569850 speaking of gluttony, i don't quite get one of her forms. In one challenge type she eats all the buffs but loses hp for every buff she eats right? At least that is what it looked like.

>>572445 That might've been in the crypt, that battle was just surviving long enough until she eaths herself to death, but yeah same bosses have different kits in different modes

>>569652 What elf is this?

>>572773 im gonna take a guess that it is the next limited girl, her picture is grey on the dex but is there.

Got my Calli, bitch took me to hard pity. At least I didn't have to spend anything.

https://youtu.be/A6vgQYdV_40 Got some ascend 3's done and tested how far I can go in Memory Dive 1, it gets hard pretty fast though, the enemies still have too much speed and there's no way to get more now other than runes... >>572773 https://wiki.biligame.com/elf/%E6%98%94%E8%8E%B1 Check here with google.

I decided to and got ampsa a1 icaruth a1 (will get a2 with abyss boxes) Outlander Cali a1 on accident I finished pushing Sarah to level 180 as I am using her for dps. I also got a1 Cecily due to a dupe missfire while rolling on standard banner so maybe I should build her now? I also shifted To using Icaruth to the lead on Ritsu and adjusted to compensate talents for blue since I don't have a tank anyhow. I still use angels for Kuoro and Kurokami for the lead. I got Kurokami to level 100 but the other two are 80 to help push progress. As far as relics go I got 3 5* relics in one pull because of luck I guess. Sarahs, Cecily, and Icaruth. I also picked up one level of Cali's relic. At this point the game is begging me to level up Cecily. Also if anyone new comes across this thread farm the new event you get free rune exp, something everyone badly needs, besides the shop materials.

>>588167 Also I made it to 5-6 in the new crypt season, but at that point it looks like you need speed on your gear or they just kill you on turn 1 before you can react. One unintended combo I saw is if you take a card that takes 99% of your hp and converts it to shield and have the Tormentras talent that takes 35% of your hp you instantly die in the crypt lol so be careful with that one. Otherwise I was trying all the shield cards and its suprisingly good.

>>588167 >At this point the game is begging me to level up Cecily. You can wathc my vid to get a taste of her power. As I mentioned before in my tierlist I thik she's god tier, I don't think you'd regret it.

>>588268 i started working on her a bit, i need to review her stuff anyhow. I am close to doing a2 for Icaruth, need a little more abyss coins. After that I am going to try a3 via normal standard pulls.

>>588268 If you see this post I had some questions friend. Due to some translation issues and a lack of in game tooltips I had some questions on some things in game. Using a variety of methods including a small amount of money, I got Icaruth to Awaken level 3 so far and should be able to get awaken 4 on the next reset. On awaken 5 specifically it says Zephyr's Grace s3 change: Old skill: Gain a shield equal to x% of HP after action. New skill: Gain a shield equal to X% of HP. 1. This isn't much info so I figured you may know more about it. So the new skill just always hands out the X% of HP on the beginning of your turn? That is the only way to read it, otherwise the lack of action text would make me thing it just gives you that shield permanently as long as it's your turn or something. As an awaken 5 I would imagine its quite powerful. 2. For enhancing relics I discovered the roadblock at level 20, it needs 20 of those Traction Runes which are only on a few shops and I think they reset per month. Is it only at lvl 20/30/40/50 that needs all those runes? I can't check. I am planning to max out Icaruth's relic after I get her awakening 5, unless you say that her skill 3 passiveupgrade is garbage or something.

>>642451 Hey, I kinda ended up semi-dropping the game now because of Shadowverse coming out, but Icarus a5 iirc makes it so that the shield from the passive is applied to all novas after Icarus user's turn. I don't have her a5 myself so I can't test it exactly but that's the most obvious way. You then make your Icarus nova fast and have her take turns as often as possible to stack the shields on your whole team to survive aoe nukes. About relics, afaik it's indeed every 10 levels. Probably won't be checking this general anymore, I lost the drive to keep going because it's pretty boring to play gacha alone, and other than climbing memory dive there isn't anything else to do anymore for me, story being so bad despite the impressive worldbuilding is quite the shame too.

>>662634 Ty for letting me know! I have enough resources to reach a5 next week, them maxing her relic. I also saved up 1100 rune dust to prepare farming rune gear. Even if the game dies I'll stick it out I think. If that's your account on utube I'll message you there how it goes in a few minths

>>665597 Sure. It was fun while it lasted and I enjoyed posting here.

>>665932 i picked up the new girl and got a1. she seemed to have really good synergy with shields and im building icu a5 so I got her. I put her on kurokomi for now she solved the survivability problem she had completely.
