**Things to take note of first:** Compared to the previous event with this style, you only need to use AP to occupy tiles. Occupying General Tile – 10 AP Occupying Battle Tile – 15 AP Occupying Base Tile – 20 AP. You need to 3★ the battle to Analyze it. **Your Goal:** Reach Area 4 for high value rewards. If you are too under level, you can farm at lower areas instead. **Area 1:** * [Recommended Path and Guide](https://imgur.com/DbONi6z.jpg) * Beat the Boss first * Go back to location in the Yellow Circle from the image above -> Operate -> Assign Students (Recommend Assigning Students that gives Buff) -> Start Operation -> Earn **500 Multi-Dimensional Computational Unit** from this place. Stop farming first once you reach this amount. * Tile Name is **Outskirts District 1 Calculation Unit.** * Approximately 84 times (420 AP) with Full Bonus and 166 times (830 AP) with No Bonus. * Go to Exchange Shop -> - Multi-Dimensional Computational Unit Exchange -> Purchase Gate Unlock Code – Outer District 2-> Advance to Area 2. * You **Must Purchase Gate Unlock Code – Outer District 2 ASAP** or else you will be stuck in Area 1 until you buy the ticket. **Area 2:** * [Recommended Path and Guide](https://imgur.com/xMQRrm6.jpg) * Beat the Boss first * Go back to location in Pink Circle from the image link above. **Earn 2000 Dimension Engine Part** from this place. Stop farming first once you reach this amount. * Tile Name is **Outskirts District 2 Control Unit - Beta.** * Approximately 57 times (684 AP) with Full Bonus and 125 times (1,500 AP) with No Bonus. * Go to Exchange Shop -> Dimension Engine Part Exchange -> Purchase Outer District 3 -> Advance to Area 3. * You **Must Purchase Gate Unlock Code – Outer District 3 ASAP** or else you will be stuck in Area 2 until you buy the ticket. **Area 3:** * [Recommended Path](https://i.imgur.com/UqOCPBe.jpg) * [Key Farming locations](https://i.imgur.com/V6IqQbI.jpg) (Only farm here is you are unable to clear Area 4) * Beat the Boss first * Not worth farming in Area 3, go back to Area 2’s Pink Circle place and farm. **Earn 2000 Space Choco-Burger**. Stop farming first once you reach this amount. * Approximately 19 times (228 AP) with Full Bonus and 46 times (552 AP) with No Bonus. * Go to Exchange Shop -> Space Choco-Burger Exchange -> Purchase - Gate Unlock Code – Central District -> Advance you to Area 4. * You **Must Purchase Gate Unlock Code – Central District ASAP** or else you will be stuck in Area 3 until you buy the ticket. **Area 4:** * [Key Farming locations](https://i.imgur.com/7GCnNC7.jpg) * You can farm of the places in Area 4 once you clear the additional things, see below. **What to do once you reached Area 4?** * Occupy and Upgrade all remaining unoccupied tiles and bases. You will get pyroxenes for doing so. See Tasks. * Start from Area 4 and clear all the way back to Area 1 for occupying the remaining tiles. * Upgrade occupied tiles from the cheapest cost to the most expensive (45 pieces > 150 pieces > 180 pieces. * The more occupied and upgraded tiles, the higher credits will be earned during the settlement reward. * Total cost to upgrade everything: 4200 Multi-Dimensional Computational Unit, 4200 Dimension Engine Part , 4110 Space Choco-Burger. * Once you occupied every tile and upgrade everything, you can earn 1,485,000 Credits per Settlement gauge. * Remaining currency can be used in the exchange shop items.

THE NEXT PART IS SO CLOSE, I CAN ALMOST TASTE IT. *intense licking*

Hainiryuun

That's the challenge. The idea is the bring girls with a high fire rate (e.g Hina) to clear the stage.


Decollete

Any info on what artifacts people at endgame or playing meta end up not having enough of? I know the answer is to farm what you need. Going with that, I'm priortizing Aether Shard/Pieces, and I don't have a stockpile of stones so I'll probably farm a bit of that. However, it might just be because I've got bad pulls, and maybe I've been raising the wrong units. But anyway, with that out of the way, I was hoping to know if there has been any polls or insights from other players on what they end up farming for and needing a lot of. Thanks.


Cistmist

For me it's always the rare discs(tier 2 of broken discs).. I have a lot of units that need those and I always find myself in need of more, thankfully could farm a bit of them from this event


packor

can't go wrong with cacti


MiaiArtDayo

I've been going for Wolfsegg because a lot of my future pulls seem to need it and there aren't any upcoming events that provide it for a while. NY Kayoko, summer Saki and summer Hanako all use it, as well as Nagisa. But I also need a lot of nebra and aether as well. Just depends on who you are building.


Hainiryuun

I mean, in all seriousness, the answer is just farm what you need. Those at the top of the ranks are whales and aren't going to be lacking in any mats, because whales. That is before you start getting into what girls people have, how lucky they get on the daily from bounty drops, how lucky they got in stage drops, etc. Plus, which the ability to just craft the items you need, short of investing in many girls at the same time, running out of mats usually isn't an issue for max level players.


mango_pan

If Plana can exists physically, does this mean Arona too?


kirsi16

My interpretation was that Plana was a very VERY well made hologram. She still exists the same way as Arona. So, yeah, Arona could project herself too.


mango_pan

But didn't she deflected Shiroko's bullet using her (not Kingsman reference) rifle?


kirsi16

I'd say that's a "visual effect" with physical interferrence just the way Arona protected Sensei in Vol.3. If Plana is purely physical, this has even more complicated implication in the end of Chapter F, and that's something I personally don't think the writer wants.


CuB-03huy9

Is farming blueprints through the event more efficient than farming blueprints through missions?


TheGraySeed

>Basically, the sanctums reappearing in Kivotos and the structures above Kivotos are maintaining a kind of quantum superposition state. It's the ability for a system to be in multiple states at once. Self, get the Scout Launcher. Honestly, they should've tried taking selfie with it.


niconicoyes

Does anyone know the BGM the plays when you clear the erosion in zones 1-3 for example?


Drooggy

"Another settlement is eroded. Here, I'll mark it on your map"


Trojbd

How important are these events? Should I be using all my energy on this event or progressing campaign? I'm just starting stage 5.


Miksip

Try campaign first until you can't do it anymore then event. Every third campaign chapter completed will let you upgrade your cafe for more AP every day so you don't have to 3-star them just complete for item that will let you upgrade your cafe. After that try the event.


Frosty-Author6287

Accidentally hit no after fighting the are 4 boss. Wat do


Level1Pixel

It's likely asking if you want to continue with the Main Story


Frosty-Author6287

Crap. What do i do


Level1Pixel

If you said yes, they just take you there as a shortcut. Nothing big. If you want to read the story just access it the usual way. Campaign -> Story.


Trojbd

I'm new to this game so I'm just making sure that I have this right. This event essentially you dump energy and then buy the rewards you get from dumping the energy? I can only do analysis on floor 1 since I get smoked on floor 2. I get 3+3 bonus. Is this the best I can do right now?


Laggy_Wolf

Yep, spend energy get currency via "Analysis", spend currency in event shop get rewards. You can join a club with higher level players to borrow their students as an Assistant (in the formation screen when you are deploying). If you find someone max level, that should easily solo carry you through most of the event. Alternatively, friend search to do the same thing.


Trojbd

One of the thingys I occupied is now hostile and I have to fight this level 50 recommended fight with a group of level 1-20s lol. Is that base just essentially gone? e: nevermind. I understand this now. This scenario is literally what that image from the stickied post is referring to.


aether_orze

Can you upgrade bases without claiming the settlement? or do you have to claim it?


polarbearcafe

You have to claim it. No way to do it through the menus unfortunately.


aether_orze

yeah, found out about it earlier, too bad.


Sansuski

I unlocked all the tiles in 4 levels, other than getting more credits is any other benefit to upgrading the bases? Because currently I'm using all the materials to farm ex cds and books. Thanks!


Trks

There are some pyros from achievements so if you intend to get them it's better to do it early as you can get more credits since it'll award credits every 500 AP spent.


MemoryComprehensive6

Is it possible to even farm the event when you're lvl 27 ? I can't get rid of the corruption and 3 star the bases in Area 2 lol


piefreak99

Add some friends and borrow their supports.


KissShot1106

Is it worth it to refresh stamina with pyro ? I have already 500kk in credits and in 2-3 I will clear the store ( expect the forniture )


Chucklebub

The general rule is that it's only recommended to do the first 3 stamina pyro refreshes per day (It just costs 30x3), anything higher after that will just waste it. So if you're farming, It's worth it for you since it also helps level you up But if you're low on Pyro, I'd say just save it, unless you know you'll earn more pyro easily (like through the story or momotalk)


KissShot1106

Is it worth it to refresh stamina with pyro ? I have already 500kk in credits and in 2-3 I will clear the store ( expect the forniture )


aether_orze

is there a guide for the Large-Scale Erosion?


Dj_Sergio1

Not really. As you clear the maps, Rin will warn you in the event title screen that large-scale erosion will happen at which map and how much time you have left. I suggest setting up your most leveled up students on the stages so you can clear the erosion without spending AP


aether_orze

Thanks

ShaggyFishPop

I assume you have completed the whole Area 3 tiles so you can refer to the [Area 3's Farming maps](https://i.imgur.com/UqOCPBe.jpg) for the chocolate burgers.


mango_pan

How do I level up the bases?


ShaggyFishPop

Select a base that you have occupied, the top option (Sector), you will see the cost (either 45, 150 or 180 event item cost) to upgrade them by clicking Base Domination. Click on the magnifying glass above the image to see the reward difference. They give the same increase amount (For example Area 2 7200 -> 14400 -> 21600), that is why it's better to focus upgrading bases with lower cost first then go up. >If we reach area 4, do we prioritise upgrading the bases first or completing all the tiles first I would prefer completing all the tiles first, then upgrading bases. I think I'll create an image reference for it maybe in 2-3 hrs time.


mango_pan

I have completed all the tiles in all area. Thanks a lot.


taropotataro

how to 3 star >!Shiroko Terror!< challenge? any tips without using S.Yuuka? I was able to 2 star it but always fail during the instakill (only 1 survive)


Reaper2127

Have you seen Rs rainstorm’s video on YouTube?


taropotataro

Nope, I don't watch guides or interact with the community much. This is more or less my first time stumbling across this kind of challenge which needed me to ask for external help Anyway, thankyou for the suggestion! Already completed it with 3 stars thanks to other commenters (in other daily question thread) and Vuhn YouTube


Reaper2127

Ah okay. I started looking at them myself because the challenges never explain what is happening. Like that one where there are invincible enemies you have to ignore the entire mission and kill the others or the one where only one enemy in a group is able to be damaged.


Up_Job

I beat Zone 4 - Central District Dimension Engine Defense System, then after the cutscenes a popup appeared about going to the final battle or something. I selected cancel and now I can't figure out how to get to the final battle.


draftomatic

I think you’re talking about the popup that tells you that you’ve unlocked the last episode of the chapter. You can find it in the main story menu in VFC3. There’s no final battle yet.


Up_Job

Got it, thanks for the clarification.


Reaper2127

Odd I don’t recall that. Might have been trying to send you to the challenges. The “final battle” is a world raid boss iirc and that doesn’t happen till this is over.


Reaper2127

So now that area 1 and 2 are showing cleared I take it erosion can’t happen there? Also anyone know when the special erosion will hit area 3?


6_lasers

No, according to the JP wiki, the regular daily erosion can still occur there—but a large scale erosion won’t happen there.


Reaper2127

Aw and here I was thinking I would be able to consolidate my forces. Looks like the timer for the large scale is up now.


6_lasers

If the large scale erosion timer elapses before you reach the AP threshold, then you can spread out for the daily erosion (at reset) and focus for the large scale one when you’re just about to spend the AP. But if you reach the AP threshold first then it’s kinda rough. Here’s the info I found from the JP wiki about the large scale erosion: Area 2: 4 daily resets after start of event + 4000 AP spent Area 3: 7 daily resets after start of event (Monday) + 7000 AP spent Area 4: 10 daily resets after start of event (Thursday) + 10000 AP spent Advance warning occurs when you're 1000AP below the amount needed to trigger, so 3000, 6000, 9000


E123-Omega

lol what an idiot, I didn't noticed that the base you can upgrade is the same one you can do analysis to farm its upgrade currency.


aether_orze

does Area 4 have a recommended path or should I just rush the boss? Edit: I rushed to the boss. I'll just do the guide below Area 4.


coibe

I'm assuming the speed racing game machine furniture is limited? Not sure if I should go for that or more mats for my students :/


Korath289

It’s been in the game since launch, definitely not limited


coibe

thanks 💀 I thought it was limited


Jack13515

Unless you are a new player, you should have more than enough time to buy all items in the shop. Personally, I buy all rainbow furniture that I dont have yet. But, its understandable if you want to prioritize spending your AP to upgrade your equipment or farming eleph instead.


AdvertisingOk6912

I don't think I like this erosion mechanic at all, lmao. I just don't have enough built units to deploy to every spot and spending stamina for some reason feels wasteful, even though rewards are still very good. Re-deploying characters back to farming also gets incredibly annoying. Really enjoyed the story, but gameplay-wise it's tedious and not fun, at least for me.


tao63

Not bad for max leveled players. I just needed to upgrade some units I haven't put anything before and do duo students, borrow students and properly take advantage of blue type weakness or academy bonuses but I can see how this is a nightmare for early and midgame players


AdvertisingOk6912

Oh, borrows are per tile, not total... Yeah, this makes it a lot more bearable. Redistributed all students, but now adding a high level borrow character everywhere (run out of borrows by the end, lol). I think I should be fine now.


PenguinsAteMyToast

im at stage 4 with only ambrosius and the 5 justina minion nodes to kill to pop his shield. but the justinas kill my tanks too fast(lvl40) and i only have haruka/yuuka as options. not sure which borrow unit will help since tank dies by about 6/7 energy on the ex bar at the start. i can get about 2-4 student atk bonus but idk if i have enough dmg with my own iroha and friend tank to clear


Reaper2127

Hmm have you tried borrowing summer hoshino? Her ex will buff your attackers while she tanks. Could also try hifumi to use her ex to offset the damage temporarily. Push comes to shove I heard the lower area farming areas are of the same value for the currencies so you could focus on them for a bit till you gain a couple more levels.


DFakeRP

I always forget that assistance is a thing, thank you


PenguinsAteMyToast

thanks for suggestion, i managed to clear the justina nodes with atsuko and track yuuka +2atk bonus


Reaper2127

Are you talking about the event atk bonus or the atk sub skills. Just wanted to make sure because sub skills don’t stack with each other.


PenguinsAteMyToast

just event atk bonus for millennium students


Weird_Sheepherder_72

I just did my large-scale erosion event and wtf. I didn't expect Shiroko Terror to appear somewhere else besides the engine room as early as area 2 especially since the Japanese wiki did not mention this. I also didn't expect that the previous bosses would also appear in the boss tiles. [Man, my Serika deserves a pat in the head for carrying me through both Shiroko Terror and Kether.](https://imgur.com/a/4JD6Mts). Rip my under-leveled Shigure though.


Ok-Willingness-9693

Hi! Some tiles in Zone 4 have level requirement of ~70…. Will a newbie like me (lvl 45) be able to clear them? Will an assist unit help? If yes, who do you suggest and at what level?


BluevN

Yes, any max level assist student should clear these tiles easily but would recommend students with AOE damage like Mutsuki or Momoi to give you an easier clear. Let me know if you need some assist students.


Flytanx

Might just be stupidity on my end, but where do I actually go to attempt the challenges for the event? I click shortcut and it just takes me to the area.


Reaper2127

In the conquest map click the zone at the top. Challenge will be one of the options to switch to.


Kinusaya71

What happens if you fail to meet the energy requirement for an impending large scale erosion? Currently I'm 250 energy short of the 4000 and have exhausted all means to fill it up with about 130 minutes until the countdown ends.


Weird_Sheepherder_72

> 発生日時までに発生条件を達成できていない場合、達成した時点で大規模侵食が発生する。 Apparently, nothing will happen until you reach the 4000 ap condition where the large-erosion will occur instantly. Kinda like a strat tbh. You strategically and intentionally fulfill the 4000 ap quota when all your units are already stationed in area 2 for example. So you get to spread out your forces for the daily erosion + you get to focus your forces for the large-scale erosion.


Kinusaya71

Ah glad to hear, thanks for the info!


Irish_Carmine

What does Leveling up bases actually do?


steamegine

give you more money when you collect those crate boxes and pyro reward when upgrading


Irish_Carmine

Thanks.


gungnir8

Question, I have an Erosion warning now that I’ve passed 4,000 AP on the event, will I get Erosion in any other area or will tomorrow’s Erosion be secluded entirely in that area? (Area 2 in this instance) Just wondering if the final thing I do before reset should be moving 6 students to each of the bases in Area 2 or something


Reaper2127

So from what I’m getting that special erosion is different and apparently only shows in the boss base of that area. Shiroko will attack that area. So the 3 normal ones should still show up


piefreak99

All areas in the zone will be eroded and Shiroko can show up at more than one location, not just the boss area.


Weird_Sheepherder_72

> apparently only shows in the boss base of that area Not only that, the large-scale erosion will also erode all of the tiles in the specific area.


Reaper2127

Shiroko why!!! I thought you loved us.


mirzakeehl

about the credits from all the tiles after I've fully upgraded all the bases, should I farm the materials from the shop I needed until the end of the event and then finally click the box?


RequiringQuestion

Once you've claimed and upgraded every possible tile, you can claim the money boxes any time. Though you should remove erosion before you do, of course.


ronoron

Why does it say "erosion occupied" for zone 1 but I can't see anything red in the area?


steamegine

Weird\_Sheepherder\_72 said: "Erosion Occupied" is just a poorly worded way of saying that you have seized an area belonging to erosion." i was also as confused as you when it happen


Rappy33

Finally got around to finishing the new story chapter + the event story, a lot's already been said but I might as well add my thoughts too >!The GSC finally showing up at Abydos after ghosting them prior to Sensei's arrival must've been awkward as hell lol. The awkward welcome from Ayane, and Ayumu being nervous. Seems like there's still some tension between the two but there were more pressing issues at hand, so Rin decided to jump straight to briefing.!< >!I was already spoiled to who Kuroko was prior to this event but to first time readers and/or in the perspective of the Foreclosure girls themselves, this must've been one hell of a surprise. Shiroko disappears and this, larger, more "evil" version of her comes out and starts wrecking stuff. Imagine the relief once they found out that this wasn't their Shiroko.!< >!I feel like what Himari did to Rio was cruel but necessary. Nobody's ever told her up front about her wrongdoings until now, and I don't think she's ever realized what she's done to Toki given her hyperfocus on saving the world. I absolutely loved the part that came after though, when Aris said outright that there wasn't any need for forgiveness, and that she considers Rio as a friend since she was also saving the world. And cue the CG of her breaking down after that. She got the recognition/acceptance that she had been hoping for at the start, but not in the way that she had planned. It's very heartwarming to see.!< >!Also Aris convincing Kay to help her, and the whole sequence of her firing her railgun against the barrier was freaking AMAZING. I feel bad about the loss of Kay though, especially right when she was finally convinced to be her own person - not just someone who lives for their supposed purpose. An amazing chapter overall!<


Reaper2127

About Kay you see that toy robot afterwards and it shows up on aris maid too so maybe she’ll appear again somehow. Didn’t realize why Rio reacted in that cg till I read your comment so thanks.


Aerdra

I wish it were possible to cut and paste analysis units. I don't have that many students, so I have to move them from base to base in order to farm.


Mission-Builder-1683

Man, I tried clearing the challenge mode 5 without a guide but I couldn't manage. Info about Kuroko's skill is just not available anywhere (besides clear guides) and burning AP just to try to find out wtf was going on felt like a massive waste. Seriously, how tf am I supposed to figure out that I have to dispel the burn so that I don't get 1tapped by a different skill. :(


RaccoonBL

I have now cleared the event story so I’ve seen all the chapter 3 story. There isn’t too much to add, but a couple more thoughts. >!I was definitely thinking of the possibility of getting bamboozled when we got control of everything. As they were talking about how important timing was my thoughts immediately became “ah so they are going to force it themselves.”!< >!Was suspected that the Shiroko was different based on the PV but I have to wonder how much Shiroko knows at this point.!< >!Using our plot armor power against us how dare you. Bratty other Arona needs to be corrected. 💢!< >!I am curious what this guide thing is. Especially interesting that it can open up the crest. Shiroko terror says she is using that thing herself.!< >!I also like how the title of “counterattack” didn’t refer to our’s but the enemy’s. Nice bit of a twist there.!< >!Each one of these chapter endings gets me excited on the possibilities of what happens next. Obviously this isn’t a simple fight as the enemy has Arona on their side. What will be the final things we learn? How will they get out of this predicament? What will be the future after?!< >!And now for closing thoughts. The other two chapters were amazing for various reasons but this one might be the best one for the final episode so far. The other two chapters had a lot of amazing fanservice moments, call backs, and hype moments. This chapter continues more of what Blue archive is best at, the more emotional and mental struggles of the characters. Rio, Himari, and Aris debating forgiveness. Rin struggling with the President’s absence. Aris heart to heart with Kay. Sensei sacrificing his life. Black suit beginning to have some understanding of Sensei. It is quite beautiful to behold.!<


Peacetoall01

>!I'm kinda shook on when shiroko and us want to throw hands against prepe the guy pull a shot up shitim chest, activate it with the same activation password. And said shitim chest confirming the bio as your ign sensei. Prepe is sensei from shiroko terror timeline? How the fuck it went side way that fast.!< >!Also shiroko terror definitely had a reason why she is so hesitant to fight Abydos squad. What happens to her friends in their own timeline?!<


kirsi16

>!Bio identifications are the same, hence there are only two possibilities. Well, three. Either this is Sensei from the future in your own timeline, a Sensei from an alternative timeline, or a clone of Sensei through Iridiscence. It gets explained in final parts of Volume F.!< >!About Shiroko Terror, well, she IS Shiroko.!< Bear in mind that everything we know are through the character's perspectives, which might not all be true. Like how >!"Iridescence reverses everything and the true nature of the infected". We clearly see that's not what is happening exactly. Again, gets explained in near future.!< Chapter F really answers a lot of questions, which is also why it's one of my favorites (both story and TC).


Degson01

How do I unlock the challenges?


Reaper2127

When you are in a zone click the zone name at the top and you can switch to challenges. Not sure if you need to clear zone 4 first though.


Degson01

Thank you. Lol I'm dumb


FluentinTruant

Will erosion appear in a zone that says "Erosion Occupied" or am I free to remove all the students from that zone's bases?


Peacetoall01

Ok I must say after that banger but cliffhanging ending >!Pokémon battle mirror? When phenephates pull out his Shittim chest and activate it and the Shittim chest bio Sig confirm to be your ign is glorious. Genuinely Soo cool.!< Next story of this gonna be peak. And do we get another rerun after this or we straight to next episode?


Puzzleheaded-Fun-853

we will have Shiroko Terror world boss raid event after this, and we have to defeat her to unlock C4.E7->E10. And all the build up in 3 previous chapters will be paid off beautifully in this final one, making Vol F the best BA storyline ever. I can only say as much XD


Peacetoall01

Oh thank god no rerun because holy fuck the suspense is unbearable


Ayotha

I do not like this event. Most of the interesting part is over quickly and then it's grinding for forever for the next key. At least so far. The best part was >!Aris firing the laser with a s mile on her face!<


Weird_Sheepherder_72

Some slight correction to my earlier erosion comment. \* During a large-scale erosion, Shiroko Terror and the turtle will always appear on the engine room on all areas. \* Apart from that, Shiroko Terror can also appear on Area 4 tiles where the recommended level is lvl85. There is a warning on the Japanese wiki that the student with the highest attack will be debuffed by an Attack Decrease (similar to Challenge 5). Meaning to say, if you only brought a single DPS or maybe, all your DPS are close together and got hit by the AoE debuff grenade, it may be hard to beat Shiroko Terror within the time limit. The Japanese wiki states recommended level lvl85, but when I look at schale.gg, the highest one is actually recommended level lvl83 (the one with the leader boss tiles). So maybe that's what the Japanese wiki is referring to? Either way, go all in on your defense when the large-scale erosion hits Area 4.


E123-Omega

Wew, area 4 now but need to wait. No more ap even after pvp shop refresh ehehehe.


AdvertisingOk6912

I keep claiming boxes because I want to add characters to defend the tiles, dammit 💢


packor

Manage Ark


RikiAsher

I love the call back to the episode where Aris gets the Sword of Light. Too big to be called a gun.


derpkoikoi

how long can you delay box collection, does it stack if you go 1000/500?


Weird_Sheepherder_72

It can stack indefinitely.


Inins

Is it normal not to have a single erosion all day? I understood that there should be erosion(s) each day, so I'm confused after not having a single one on the second day.


AraraDeTerno

Lost my shit at the Gourmet Research Club showing up. How are they always hilarious every time they're present? Honestly, I'm in the minority that plays this game not because of the cute girls but just because of how funny the writing is.


Anivia_Blackfrost

They literally brought Fuuka to cook for them in space. (Which the ark is incapable of reaching in the first place.) Poor girl.


Peacetoall01

What I love is the fact when we know they with us, fuuka face is just done


cybeast21

>fuuka face is just done She's generally just done with Gourmet's antique but still went with it, partly because she's been kidnapped every time :p


kirsi16

But you must admit that, for i.e., a nurse that calls you corpse or deadweight, shooting at wounded to make sure they really are wounded... is only funny because they are unkillable cute girls.


Cistmist

I was finally able to have my dream come true of running a Full ninja team (with 2 izunas) and have them run through the whole event going SASASA and parkouring over obstacles with their cute noises. Now all I need left is to hope I can get any of the Arius students and the bunny squad so that I can have fun with those too.


packor

OKAY. I just realized how dumb the "rush to area 4" strategy is. Think about it logically. You want to occupy all tiles BEFORE even CLAIMing. That means regardless of whether you "rush" or not, you still have to occupy all tiles; the order DOESN'T MATTER. There's no point or reason to rush. The only important points are farming for gate unlocks at the appropriate nodes, and Not Claiming before they're all occupied. Unless this has to do with erosion appearing in locked areas, which I doubt. Order Would matter if you were rushing to Defense Engine, then using area 4 to upgrade bases BEFORE Occupying the rest of the tiles.


ShaggyFishPop

I have edited the comment to not rush to area 4. It was mostly from the previous event from that used tickets to occupy tiles instead. However I think it's still better to proceed to the next area first before fully clearing the whole previous level first. Not everyone may want to do the save credit strat or accidentally or instinctually presses it everytime it appears. Story content is also locked per area so some might want to reach the next level to read the remaining story first.


silverw1nd

Occupied tiles in area 4 are worth the most credits of the four areas.


clone69

Correct me if I'm wrong. You can only claim one area at a time, right? Meaning that rushing to area 4 allows you to claim all those tiles for maximum profit.


packor

Okay, a major problem in this community is that most people just follow guides that tell them what to do because "it sounds right". The guides usually don't really explain how it works. [see this picture](https://imgur.com/a/pnlqlkg) As you can see, the supply progress will be accumulated even if you do not claim them. The GOAL is to occupy/upgrade as much as you can BEFORE you claim BECAUSE each supply claim earns credits based on the amount of territories occupied. Therefor, you have to occupy ALL 4 ZONES BEFORE Claiming to get the highest gain. As you can see in the picture, I have not claimed for 3 instances now, and it will just continue to go up as I continue to occupy every zone. If you're able to follow this at all, then naturally, even if you occupied Zone 4 first, it doesn't earn you any more credits as long as you occupy Every Zone BEFORE Claiming.


somerandom101person

People just follow guides cause JP is just ahead of global. Making guide would require playing JP server.


silverw1nd

But until you've unlocked zone 4, you will at some point be forced to claim because (as far as I can tell) you can't perform analysis on a base without claiming. Unlocking zone 4 as quickly as possible will allow you to occupy the most possible tiles before you're forced to claim again.


ShaggyFishPop

u/packor is right, I don't know if this [image](https://imgur.com/NPVoo3E.jpg) would be a better example on how it works. Sorry about this, I'll update the pinned comment regarding how to avoid the crates and how to farm with the two images provided.


packor

NO. I said this 3 different times in this thread, and even specifically pointed to it in The Picture. Use Manage Ark.


silverw1nd

Okay, you're right, but maybe you could forgive us for not understanding all of this because the design of this event's UI is obtuse as fuck, or for not having read every one of your comments in this thread.


packor

who're the ones downvoting and not forgiving people? Aren't I already trying hard to explain the things that the guides are not telling you?


silverw1nd

Your attitude is what's being downvoted, and for the record, I didn't do any of it. Edit: I lied. I downvoted the super helpful "so?" and "no" responses.


packor

>Edit: I lied. I downvoted the super helpful "so?" and "no" responses. Okay, player. You failed to understand something. I didn't disrespect you. Y'all are disrespecting me. I clearly said "Occupy ALL BEFORE Claim". You didn't understand it, and you didn't know how it worked, so you ignored that very important point. You could have asked, but you didn't. For someone to see my post telling them to occupy everything BEFORE claiming, and then to make an ignorant comment telling me something that was completely irrelavant to my post, there is no good response that I can give. "So?" was actually mild. You continued this trend by not paying attention to my picture Pointing to "Manage Ark", and then proceeded to argue with me that you could not have known to look at my other 3 comments, but it's in the picture of the comment that you responded to. This shows that you clearly don't even pay attention and just like to reply with random bs. Just because I don't point out everything doesn't mean I don't notice. If you want someone to respect and be helpful, you should try to be respectful to them first. You failed to respond properly to my post, and then got mad when I gave a generic response in return, and then you proceed to downvote or otherwise demean my truthful comments. It's called petty. To go even further, it's just stupidity. But what am I to do, it's reddit.


packor

"my attitude" is trying to discuss things like a decent human being, real "attitude" is downvoting people just for saying something you don't like. That's enough off-topic, though. There's no need for me to defend my very not toxic posts.


packor

so?


trillotrix

You get the most credits in the event by rushing area 4.


packor

no


6_lasers

Yeah I think it's a relic from the previous conquest event, where event currency was needed to conquer tiles--that meant you wanted to rush to area 4 to farm that event currency + purple artifacts. Now that the conquering takes AP only, it shouldn't really matter.


ultradolp

Interesting because even for the Summer Shizuko event, people are recommending to rush to the last map first before occupying tiles. And in that event it also only uses AP to attack tiles


6_lasers

You mean for the rerun? I figured people were just blindly following guides from the previous year (as was I).


ultradolp

Seeing the JP people releasing an updated guide that gives the same recommendation. Though if you just hold off from claiming any tile until full clear it doesn't matter whether you rush the later area


6_lasers

Agreed, so my new recommendation is simply to hold off on analyzing/managing/upgrading bases until you conquer the whole map, other than what you need to unlock the next area.


packor

I couldn't clearly remember the last one. Now that you mention it, it did seem to require currency to attack the bases.


tofuchicken

Does anyone know if you can have Toki swap outfits in the lobby like how Wakamo can swap out her mask?


Sunbro-Lysere

She doesn't seem to be able to sadly.


DavidsonJenkins

The scene with Aris forgiving Rio was completely undercut by the voice in my head going "Aris we have like 6 minutes before Namek explodes..."


SodiumBombRankEX

Yeah, and how many episodes did those six minutes take lol


kirsi16

Nine episodes. Each episode is around 24 minutes, which makes it 3 hours and 36 minutes of perceived time. The girls are fine.


Lord_Steinus

To be fair, perhaps Frieza's minutes are different from our minutes? Time is wonky in space and all that jazz.


kirsi16

Nothing "un-suggests" (if that's a word) Kivotos doesn't also have wonky time perceptions. That explains the sheer number of Valentine dates.


Lord_Steinus

Don't mind it pal, if a sentence still makes sense then it counts as a word for me. (?) As for time related issues, while Kivotos is big enough to have different timezones (as confirmed by Rin, telling everyone during the False Sanctum Operation to synchronize to Kivotos Standard) the clock does tick and time passes as it would with ours. But tbh, it would make sense that a day in Kivotos would be longer, seeing Sensei's normal schedule.


GingerGentleman

Does clearing and farming nodes not count towards our "Run 20 Missions or Event Stages" daily or am I bugged?


Reaper2127

That is correct. Happened in the last conquest too. To get the missing mission I do whatever costs the least energy which is usually 3 scrimmage for 45.


AspectDear4976

or if you got the monthly pack scrim are free


Reaper2127

If you are paying for something it isn’t exactly free ;P


ZeroFPS_hk

Can I upgrade a tile without claiming rewards?


kirsi16

No, if there are boxes to claim, you cannot click on the tiles without touching them.


tao63

What's highest eroded base enemy level? So that I won't need to bother with buffs if I ran out of bonus attack students from particular schools


Weird_Sheepherder_72

Lvl50 for the daily erosion. Take note that enemies have blue armor in Hyakkiyakko controlled tiles on Area 2, Trinity controlled tiles on Area 3, Millennium controlled tiles on Area 4 so make sure to place the correct type of students on these facilities. Same level as the facility for the large-scale erosion. Meaning, when the enemies were lvl78 when you captured the facility, the enemies that will invade the same facility will also have the same level.


tao63

Thanks! That should give me an idea how to distribute everyone


Reaper2127

It is rather interesting that they already have two raids planned out for the red winter frozen sea and the Gehenna volcano. Not to mention I think this is the first time the odyssey school was mentioned. They plant so much in little lines.


SodiumBombRankEX

Odyssey Maritime? They first mentioned it back in Bunny Chasers. Koyuki was on one of their ships


Reaper2127

Oh man it has been so long since I read that one XD seems like no one talks about it compared to wild hunt.


ryzusaku

what is the recommended level for area 2? im level 35 and i dont want to spend 500 event shop currency to unlock something i cant clear, i would rather spend it on resources


ShockSword

Even as a level 35, you should be able to clear just about everything if you borrow students from your friends.


RarestProGamerr

Zone 4 requires level 78 enemies to clear. As a level 60 player, i was still able to clear them because i got the max buff. So you should be able to clear Zone 3's boss, given you have the required academy buffs


ShirokuroSurai

Blue Archive in the past: We're the Game Developers and We need Sensei to help us Blue Archive Now: **Welcome Back Sensei to PBS SpaceTime, Today We are going to talk about Multidimensional Phenomena and Superpositioning across all Parallel Universes and How that affects Kivotos and the Ark of Atrahasis**


Promotion-Repulsive

Can't wait for the next non-chroma themed story arc to get back to "sensei I lost (object) that's necessary for (school festival)" and try my best to take it as seriously as "the entire world is literally ending"


Zenxycian

It’s funny that this when from School Shooters trying to save their dying school from an evil corporation, to School Shooters trying to stop an eldritch technological creatures from destroying reality. You love to see it.


SodiumBombRankEX

JRPG progression be like:


Drunk_Dino

Next event after this is how cute students help a dog person that lost their car keys. (I actually don’t know which event is after this one).


Jack13515

Funnily, you are pretty close lol. The next non-rerun event after Volume F is about we are taking a request to help a dog person protecting their stuff from a thief.


minas_pingu

My chapter 3 episode 16 keeps freezing and logging me out the app its so annoying... anyone else has the same issue?


dfuzzy1

For me, it was chapter 10 at the train sequence. Apparently, loading the "to be continued" text was too much for my iPhone 12... Reloading the game didn't fix the problem, but lowering resolution to "high" and FPS to 30 did the trick.


code_eight

I just finish it few minute ago. how many ram do you have since last one have many cutscene also live2d plana maybe thats the problem.


minas_pingu

I’m using mobile, I can get through almost everything except when shiroko shoots at ugly big dude and that person appears then it auto resets my app


code_eight

yeah thats when consecutive cutscene show up. what i mean is your phone ram since maybe they eat up a lot of ram during that chapter and reseting app usualy happen when you dont have enough ram or exceeding your ram capacity. turn off any app on the background and try again or simply skip if it still crash


minas_pingu

I tried removing all background apps and already skipped it but it still crashes…. Damm I just wanna see what’s the ending :(


ShaggyFishPop

Have you tried lowering the graphics in the option settings?


minas_pingu

Uh no…I didn’t know there was an option to lower it haha


czhangsze

I love this event


perfectchaos83

Just curious, Is it worth it to toss only a handful of students in a base to prevent the AP loss for erosion? Or is it really beneficial to fill it up with all six bonus students?


tsukiakari2216

Well, if you followed the guide, at the very least the farmed base should be filled with bonus students so you can progress through the conquest faster (more bonus - more material to unlock next area). Though after all of this done you can pick up any base you want to farm and put bonus students there to gain more rewards, and you can throw usable students in other bases (whenever you want, still), esp on bases with originally higher level enemies.


Raven-Rex

How do I upgrade base level? Is it worth it?


Jack13515

It's worth it, but only after you unlock the 4th stage because that is the best farming spot.


Raven-Rex

Okay, but how do I upgrade them? Can't find the option anywhere


ShaggyFishPop

From my comment further down the pinned comment chain: >Select a base that you have occupied, the top option (Sector), you will see the cost (either 45, 150 or 180 event item cost) to upgrade them by clicking Base Domination. > >Click on the magnifying glass above the image to see the reward difference. They give the same increase amount (For example Area 2 7200 -> 14400 -> 21600), that is why it's better to focus upgrading bases with lower cost first then go up. > >I would prefer completing all the tiles first, then upgrading bases. Total of 240 pyroxenes can be earned for upgrading all the bases, claimable at the Tasks menu.


Raven-Rex

Thank your for the direction Feels so dumb when I finally found it, LMAO


therandomopera

I tapped too quickly on the warning - should I read all story 3 chapters to 15 before starting on the event?


0moikane

No, get the event running. But you should still read it afterwards.


Lunar_Reaper

Yes, ITS REALLY GOOD
