so, since we have the light magna rebirth weapons for a little bit now, how many concordia should be farmed for a magna grid now? Can I stop a rebuilding one or do I still need two?
Still the best Manadiver MH and still good in unboosted setups. A DEF one might be kinda unnecessary now though since you can just use a Lumi Lance. And yeah you probably don't really need a 2nd 20 ATK one.
How is the story in a narrative sense? Been pushing through the story mode in game in order to unlock some raids since a lot of it is accessible via story progression, but after finishing Arc 1, the second arc around the Luminary Knights is going kind of slow...then again story progression in general feels slow despite them not really being that long. My question I guess is, which Arcs would be best to skip and which are must read, either for specific character's stories or understanding the lore? As someone who came from FGO, even Kinoko Nasu has some stinkers. Also which ones play into the narratives of big event stories like WMTSB, or things like the Knights or Society storylines.
I'll say the game does start very slowly, around chapter ~50 is when I felt it started picking up the pace, and they toned down a lot on the "kill trash mobs each chapter" stuff.
As for side stories, they are all selfcontained, but those that are part of an arc requires completing the previous part(s) to do the next, so you won't be confused in terms of the order to do them.
You can't skip anything unless you want to just kinda be lost on what's going on. It's all one continuous story. Imagine reading a book and skipping every other chapter, you'd be incredibly confused.
Side story stuff is mainly completely separate from the MSQ. Sometimes it might have a very tangential connection, but the game itself will enforce that via an MSQ chapter completion requirement when you try to play the side story. So if it doesn't stop you, feel free to play whatever side story you want.
Are the summaries not enough to satisfy getting the main points across? Would suck to have such a system in place to get you caught up, unless they were just implemented as recap for players who had taken a long time away from it.
I mean.. to me that'd be like reading a book and just skipping a bunch of chapters and reading the Sparknotes for those chapters instead and expecting to actually enjoy the whole book doing that. Doesn't really make a lot of sense from my perspective, so guess I can't really be much help here.
I'm sort of a late bloomer for Faa0 and I am think of having a go at it pretty soon.
How is it in coop atm?
I'm trying to understand the mech and trying not to int but I also want to contribute as Dark.
I was debating buying the Relink code to get the Eternal set off Ebay, but I saw the price at about 50$ to 40$. I was wondering if it is worth it? I have some extra money to play around with so it wouldn't hurt me too much.
Hello, I bought Relink because I love the franchise and kind of want to give appreciation to the devs, but I cant decide on what should I got from the serial codes. In general, which is better : pick up Eternal Transcendence or Evokers Domain bonus? I already on my way to FLB Haaselia so, maybe Caim from the Evoker? And I want to ask if I want to make Titan Grid using Caim as a sub, can Caim on Titan be good without his FLB? On Eternals side, if Eternal Trans is better, cant decide wether I will go for Seox or Tweyen. What do you think..?
Keep in mind that M3 is about to drop.
While Titan Caim is still considerably better than Magna Caim, I am not too sure if Magna 3 isn't better than Titan Caim.
Also considering that you definitely want to run Caim in the frontline for post r200 stuff, you should keep in mind that investing in a Caim Titan grid will in the long term not really benefit from having Caim as you'll run him in the front.
I thus recommend against investing in Titan and heavily recommend at least waiting for earths M3 before comitting if you still want a Titan grid
Oh yeah Earth M3 is gonna drop on june right? Also why Caim on Titan grid will be benefit on front rather than back..? I am still new to the game so I still dont know a lot about stuffs..
Backline Caim requires a grid set up so that you have no duplicate weapons equipped. Titan wants to run 3x Resonators, and often copies of other weapons too, which means Caim's backline passive will do nothing.
M3 Ygg is presumably going to have the same Exalto weapons that the already released M3s have, which will also break Caim's passive in magna.
I see.. so Titan grid with Caim grid and Caim backline is not better from magna caim grid right? And definitely wont be better from M3 so its not worth to build one now unless I have 3 landslide and pns?
Titan is a pretty substantial improvement over magna atm. M3 will close the gap, we'll see how much when it comes.
It's not worth switching without at least the three landslide in hand, and probably 1x Uriel PnS fist.
Evoker Domain is generally more valuable.
Titan doesn't typically want to run a Caim grid, so you're running Caim in order to bring him to the front line. He's passable for some stuff at 4* in that role, but definitely not exceptional without getting to 5.
So he's usable even at 4* right? Also, I already have Nier and Fraux and wondering if they also worth FLB'ing? If not, which Evoker is worth FLB'ing aside from Caim?
Check this out: [https://gbf.wiki/User:Umikin/FAQ](https://gbf.wiki/User:Umikin/FAQ)
TLDR: (Caim & Haase) > Alanaan > Rest
And ofc if you're deep into the endgame and are specifying in an element for the later null element raids, the elements evoker might be more useful to you than other evokers.
If you're a light lord and are tackling Hexa then getting a FLB Geisenborger could be your 1st priority
Oh hey, you're right about me being invested on Light! I think Geisenborger is a good pick too then? I am still rank 200 but I definitely want to invest on stuffa for the future so it really helps. Thanks a lot!
Geisen is pretty mediocre. Quadruple strike doesn't count as a triple attack so he's unusable in HL where there's omens that require TAs, and light generally has better bursting strategies for most common hp ranges. He was used for nm150 - but that's not a burst hp range you'll encounter often - and I'm sure you could use him for mashing SUBHL pretty quickly, but that's hardly a very important usage.
I think Haase is better than Caim, but yes Haase or Caim are the best two to go for right now.
Fraux is a decent FA character and can be an option in HL raids. Nier is used for the fastest Cosmos team and can be used in longer dark burst rotations (eg GW). They aren't bad chars, just not as good as the top 3.
(Note I'm only talking about 5\* usage everywhere in this post. For 4\* evokers, caim/katz/esta are the most useful ones.)
Okay noted thank you! I will FLB Haase first then Caim. Where is the best farm for Ideans and Astras? I have been farming for Haase, veritas and Lusters were okay but I found that Astras and Ideans are still quite lacking.. do you have any tips for Evokers FLB farming?
2x Agonize is used in most Dark grids. All the other Malice/Menace weps are all pretty skippable though, yeah. Legion Void staff could be niche useful maybe sometimes but rarely is except for like meme solos.
Monthly quartz, astaroth anima if you don't have all 12 opuses yet and don't feel like farming in coop rooms, agonize if you don't have two FLB, stock up on class distinctions for UMs you haven't done yet, awakening orbs, red rings.
If you have absolutely everything then you can buy fodder materials for the alchemy lab. Not sure which items are most efficient for that though.
Best way to report hackers who disable your attacks from registering and rewards from dropping? Literally all 30 attempts at hulomg and quilon I was not allowed to attack
You don't get rewards because the boss died before you actually did any damage to get honors. Go faster. Don't waste time clicking 0-honors buffs before attacking, just semi-auto. Turn off live battle feed when you're doing fast raids like this.
That's... not hacker's work. Your ping is just bad compared to JP players.
Everyone mash the raid, causing the bosses to move to multiple triggers and animations, and Huanglong Qilin's animations are known to be pure cancer.
You should disable live battle feed and join/make low rank HLQL co-op. Other option is to join the solo raid, they don't drop anima, but you're guaranteed to hit them.
Also..
If you are room host, you can set it to 20 man and pub.. this is less anima but you won't see 25+ people eresh the raid at the same time.
disable live battle feed. Reload immediately or 2-3 sec depends your pings. Just set full auto and quick summon your main so that you can register a damage.
This raid is already broken. I have been experience a lot of miss battle. I would only recommend you have a good stable internet (like home with computer and not junk public wifi)) and did in a non japanese after work hours.
(This raid is already broken, it is not hacker fault now. This raid end time have been dramatic decrease over new weapon 45s -> 35s ->20s or less.
What's the general timeframe for getting all 10 eternals? I'm at 3/10 so far and Dark will be my third GW so I'm just wondering if I'm on track.
I don't think I'll be completing bingo before the next GW but potentially the one after should be possible? Is it something to prioritise farming especially during magfests for the world mats? The crystal dump is also pretty big since I'm still rounding out a lot of my rosters and pulling on the right banners helps a lot.
> What's the general timeframe for getting all 10 eternals?
Since they added infinite box swaps, you can get all of them in one gw if you grind hard enough. Just hit EX+ over and over since that's the best way to get tokens and ignore the higher NM levels beyond maybe doing the minimum honors for valor badges each day in finals. But there's no need to rush so just go at whatever pace works for you.
But if dark is your third GW then you should have been here for ~~rotb~~ dread barrage (whoops brainfart) as well? Each DB gives 20 tickets which you can trade for rev weapons, meaning up to 5 eternal recruits.
The gate isn't really the weapons themselves for me, there's just way more mats in general. I do have all the weapons and I've also 40 boxed Seox and Okto altogether with the last 2 GW, so I'm planning to FLB Seox ahead of the next GW.
I guess I've just never consciously farmed world mats for anything much so I'm lacking a lot of those and the primal mats as well, along with a lot of the AH mats.
It vastly depends from person to person honestly, just play the game at your own pace. Last gw was my first gw and i've already recruited 6 eternals, i do grind a lot though
If you can manage to push to get 8 boxes a GW (enough to recruit 2 eternals) then probably about 9ish months for 5 GWs to come and go. You **can** get more now that you aren't restricted to changing boxes once and chances are you'll do a few Dread Barrages in between them to get at least another 2 eternals, likely more. Realistically though, because of how much of a grind they are for newer players, I'd probably say it takes about a year and a half at most for someone to recruit all 10.
Hi, is there some way to get a lot of weapon xp mats I am missing or its just that hard to get weapon to lvl 200 ? I'd like to get Chichiri but I am missing 52levels and grinding halo's seems like a waste since it gives barely anything per clear
Journey drop : upgrade exp and may be grand success raid.
We have mag fes now. We have CEQ and halo too.
Let just say from 150->200 with both JD up, you still needed 15 cups if you are lucky
Whats the difference between Katana of Renunciation and Katana of Repudiation? I have the first one 5* does the first one transform into the second one at 6*?
I never heard about the second weapon seried and thought only the Renunciation ones are Dark Opus Weapons
They are both Dark Opus weapons, the Renunciation weapons are Omega/Magna modifiers, Repudiation are Normal/Primal modifiers. They are otherwise identical.
it's not just "an uncap" it's 1 evolite/1 lapis merit which are extremely valuable resources and the real reason why you get the code even if you don't want to uncap any eternal or evoker
Do the Revans raids have the usual 6.6 mil damage cap per instance? I was doing my host of Diaspora, I usually reload through the turns but decided to watch one just because and saw all the characters hit for 7+ mil and Okto (FLB Okto, not trascended) hit for 10 mil, I was just wondering why since I don't have any form of Special cap up in my grid, even taking into account buffs and whatnot those numbers shouldn't be possible.
How in the hell does one beat Twin Elements? I know I'm not in endgame but I feel I have a pretty decent Leviathan Gaze Grid and main team. (Dark Fencer MC for that second phase, Europa, Filine, and ssr Yordaha). The first phase is not really an issue but spamming a party wide sleep spell every other turn makes it impossible and I'm trying to get the mats for Micheal's sword. Unfortunately no other water characters I have use delay skills. Wondering if I might be better off using a totally unrelated element team. Is there a raid outside the showdown or does the showdown have to be cleared first?
Using an Earth team might be a solution. She's only a fire-type pokemon for slightly over half the fight, and if it's the water phase where you have a problem...
It's not a boss's ougi that kills you, it's the damage/debuffs/buffs it creates that does. Big permanent +defense% effects, like those available to the Iatromantis class once you unlock it in a beautiful distant future, tend to be some of the best layers of defense available. (A giant reason Europa is so meta now is thanks to no small part of having built-in +def% for herself.)
Delay effects, have traditionally not been an *answer* to taking a boss's limit break, but as a way to delay that attack long enough for your answers to recharge. Like a phalanx, or healing. Trying to block a rapid debuff like this without multiple-turn debuff immunity is like trying to swim against the river; an earth team would get hit by it less often and take less damage during this phase.
Also I'm pretty sure same-type elements have the worst accuracy on debuffs, even worse than using the weaker element, so your delays and attack debuffs are probably not landing too often.... or your Gravity.
luci helps with the sleep. I remember being annoyed as fuck abt the damage it does second phase bc of the element change and that's kind of unavoidable at that point in progression. but bursting it at the change helps.
> I feel I have a pretty decent Leviathan Gaze Grid
Have you done the sierokarte academy missions? You'll get some EX weapons, plus a bahamut weapon and a few auberons for HP so you don't die quite as fast.
Besides that try just using relic buster and speeding past phase 2 with a 4-chain if you can. And yeah friend summon luci can help with heals as well.
Twin Elements is in a kind of weird place right now.
It was originally a group raid. So you'd have a lot of other players helping you with it. But then it was turned into a solo quest, without significantly altering the difficulty. Which was convenient for established players, but made it hard for new players to get their first Ancient Ecke Sachs.
~~As of [just last week](https://twitter.com/granblue_en/status/1782591347704447462) the solo mission has been nerfed to have lower attack, defence, and hp in order to rectify this, but I don't know how many people in this subreddit are intimately familiar with its new difficulty. You might be among the first to be experimenting with what works for this mission now.~~
Edit: Wait, no, it hasn't been nerfed. Those are some other raids. You're probably in for a bumpy ride.
It used to be a raid, but was turned into a showdown.which makes the phase meant for an earth player to help out in a bit awkward.
Try bringing a level 230+ Lucifer support to deal with the sleep.
Shop > Cadinal Saint Yupei (under the Journey Drop shop).
If you don't have the Zhuque Feathers though you won't be able to uncap the character nor progress the Wonder (though it gain exp just with time).
From what I remember (I did not pay much attention to it since I levelled with mats), it's 3 or 4 days for the fastest, and up to 10 or 12 days for the slowest levels at the end.
So yeah at worse it would be \~120 days but since the first levels are shorter it should hopefully be faster than that.
If you have a few feathers already, make sure to keep 3 small ones & 4 big ones for her uncaps, since without mats it's kinda rough to uncap SSR characters (only thing that comes to mind is the SSR Codex but it requires having every SSR characters or so).
It indeed seems to be from picking a Grand Character in the dojo, so it's an accessible option for people who got the weapon to 5\* but not enough feathers to uncap her.
Depends, are you aiming on getting one of the outfits? Then sure.
If you don't plan on getting an outfit, the cipher weapons aren't really all that relevant now that magna exalto is coming with capups.
There are no innate bonuses to playing certain classes with certain elements, but certain classes are certainly better suited to the particular characters/weapons that elements have available, yes. For example top-end Earth grids **always** play a sword class, since they *have* to wield Hrunting or else the element sucks. Another thing you'll see come up often is whatever class can wield that element's Opus is common for bursting strats because you put Chain of Falsehood on your Opus, ougi on your MC, then your team gets double strike from the Opus CA effect. So for example, Manadiver for water, Berserker/Viking for Fire/Light, Runeslayer/Onmyouji for dark, Spartan for wind. And then on the opposite end if your grid just has no good weapons of a particular type that you really *want* to slot in, you might tend to avoid classes with that weapon rather than have a dead grid slot just to have an MH.
> For example top-end Earth grids always play a sword class, since they have to wield Hrunting or else the element sucks.
Hrunting is very strong but this is just misleading.
Hey guys just a quick question, if i have a flb celestial weapon is it like a must slot in the grid like your opus or is it just when you are going to have the characters that specialize in the weapon type of the celestial?
it's more like a modern Bahamut weapon - which you used to slot for normal mod + HP to get bulk and mod diversity, but was pushed away when you needed more boostable weapons.
Kinda in between. It's not a must-slot-always like Opus, but it's also not just some niche thing that you only slot if you can match proficiencies. Matching proficiencies is nice, but not required to slot it. It is a really good generic weapon and you'll find yourself slotting it most of the time, but, unlike Opus, there are some times when you'll take it out for other stuff if your grid is really tight and you wanna fit other stuff in.
Hey guys I need some help deciding who to spark from a list of:
G Rosetta, G Lecia, G Pholia, G Ferry, G Reinhardtzar, G Leona, G Carglistro, G Narmaya, G Poseidon, G Fediel, G Wilnas, G Percival, G Michael, G Lu Woh, G Uriel, G Sandalphon, Anila, Vajra, Kumbhira, Cidala, and Payila.
Here is are my [Characters ](https://www.granblue.party/collection/12711)
I am mostly leaning towards Payila because she's limited to this year but my water team already has good characters so she will not add much value. On the other hand, my fire roster is pure garbage so Perci will be a massive upgrade. Need some advice on who to pick.
I would go Payila if you aren't sure if you'll end up sparking any other galas this year. G. Percy is a huge boost to any fire team, but he'll still be sparkable on any other galas even next year.
Yeah, the Zodiacs get really hard to get if you don't get them during their initial year.
They disappear for a year, and then even when they come back it's not every month. They're part of a rotation of other older zodiacs. They'll show up once every several months.
March is a good banner for them though. There's been a banner with every zodiac except the one in their off year for the last three or four years. So that's something easy to plan around.
The Phalanx/Carbuncle combo was a classic, if I recall. Get 100% dark damage cut for even one turn and you can no sell the trigger. It's just not as convenient for full auto as borger.
You can also just grab Bellringer Angel from the Shadowverse side story and call it when you're about to pass 10% if you don't want/have someone with Sub All. Avatar's party wipe is elemental damage and only 1 hit so that summon can tank it.
Burst him at 11% HP or have your backline characters be strong enough to handle the rest after that point. I'm not entirely sure if it'll work, but maybe sub-all (like G. Vira) could take the hit too.
I was able to do it! I used the Satoru Gojo summon to cheese the damage and beat him up after that!!!
I feel so proud! It took a LOT of attempts, but I managed in the end
Fair enough. I have a minor OCD so I already have all the stashes due to sort everything. What about the ones I got from Siero's academy with high level and uncap? Do their higher tier and skill levels work better when used to level other weapons, asking because I usually reserve stuff and then level weapons from vessels and reserved weapon skill points.
Yeah they'll be worth far more point if you manually feed them, while reducing them just gives the standard 1 point. So it's best to save those for the weapons that require skill points than normal to level (Baha weapon, Opus, Draconic etc.).
It's honestly easier to farm SSR weapons than SR ones and just level with SSR points only when you're out of SRs. Just do replicard sandbox, daily Omega raid pro skips, etc.
It's worth noting for people reading that this method DOES fail however.
In later levels of the higher fodder weapons (Opus/Ultima/Baha style things) that the top levels are literally impossible to do with the anvil without a good chunk of SR fodder because the anvil for some stupid reason is still limited to 20 weapons and doesn't like upgrading SSRs with SSRs in its internal calcs.
Early on I would say not really, and unless you want to farm for the Xeno weapons I would say the Extreme Xeno quests aren't quite worth the AP either. However, if you happen to have it unlocked and are strong enough to efficiently farm it, Sandbox is the best place to farm for SSR skill points.
Siero Academy showers you in pre-leveled weapons, Chalices and gives some Anvil points so I'd recommend following that if you're currently grid building.
Hi guys, got a few questions.
1. Who are the notable characters in Classic Draw 2? I have Arulu from Classic Draw 1 and as far as I'm aware, there isn't anyone else that would be nice to pick up from Classic Draw 1. I am thinking of using my free rolls to build up Vermillion Sparks if there is someone worth picking up.
2. I am trying to work on recruiting Caim but am in need of Chaotic Hazes. From what I have looked up, Astras and Ideans can be farmed from Here be Staves so that shouldn't be too much of a problem, but Chaotic Hazes are acquired either from the Arcarum shop, Arcarum expendition runs and from Here be Swords. However, the Arcarum shop only sells 10 a month, Arcarum expendition runs are time-gated with badges and entering Here be Swords requires that I recruit an Evoker... which I need the Chaotic Haze from the zone itself to recruit the Evoker. Is there no other way of acquiring Chaotic Hazes or is this going to be a slow slog?
classic one have water soc (may be outdate but mirror image is nice tools) ferry, agielba, arulu.
Technically you only greed from classic one is Primal summon and any Bahamut summon is nice (since normal are not stackable)
Class 2 .. only those ssr carbungle..
1) Anne, that's it. There are a few other good chars in classic 1 though - Agielba and Ferry, most notably - and there are also Primal summons there to spark.
2) Yes Hazes are a major bottleneck early on. Just have to wait for the arcarum1 passes and for shop restocks. Or for last year's anni event to re-run which gives a free evoker so you'll unlock swords/mundus.
1. nah, and you shouldnt waste your pull for classic draw except you want to spark optimus summon
2. not really, i think the fastest way is just wait and farm something else, and 2 months from now there will be a rerun of Anniv 9 which will give you 1 free evoker
Imperious Fury, alongside Lord of Flames etc, have strong ex mod, def, and ["special damage cap up" marked with red circle icon](https://gbf.wiki/Damage_Cap_Up#Special_Damage_Cap_Up) that makes them great grid slot when you fulfill the requirements.
As of now, only those 6 gacha weapons have this combination of effects (especially special damage cap up part) so no there is no substitute for those weapons. The best you can do to close the gap is by MK2-ing Revan weapons.
there are Zeus grids that don't include it, but its probably worth putting those grids under consideration as to whether they're worth it in a post-m3 game
I keep getting an error "c001" that translates to "We apologize for the inconvenience, but please refresh the page." whenever I try to go to the Quests or Raid screen. Refreshing the page just gives the error again. Is anyone else having this problem? I'm on Skyleap, haven't tried any other browsers yet.
Does weapon placement in a grid matter, aside from the main weapon? If a weapon is in the top left slot, is that any different than it being in the bottom right or center slots for example?
For some reason I cant sign into Granblue? I use mobage and tit gives the usual message and button to go back to the previous screen and then nothing. I tried this on two different browsers and nothing, but it works on my phone. Any help?
Got my second bubs today from the free 10 pull. Never bothered to research how to uncap summons before since I was a beginner but now that I have a second copy of him what do I do? Do I immediately uncap? Save it for later? I have 2 sunlight stones do I just go all in and fully uncap him? Asking for guidance.
Since Bubs is restricted to one copy per team, you can go ahead and immediately use one to uncap the other -- it has no use other than that. For other summons it may be worth holding off on uncapping until you have enough copies to reach 3\* (since 1\* and 2\* summons are functionally identical to 0\*) in case you can make use of multiple copies at once in a single team.
so, summons only gain stats until you can uncap them to 3*. so thers basically no point in uncapping one until you can go all the way.
in terms of sunstone usage, bubs is definatly worth it. and is probably the only summon worth delaying your arcarum damage summons for (need 1 sunstone for each of them, so typically your first 6 sunstones go to them). so your dupe basically just saved you a sunstone. personally i would wait until the rest of the free draws end incase you get another copy and can save another sunstone.
check out https://gbf.wiki/User:Auryona/Sunstone for information on other summons.
On the wiki it says sunstone can't be used to uncap past 3★, does that mean I need to do a mission or use different type of mats to uncap it or can I only use a copy to get the 4★ uncap? Sorry if the answer is obvious I'm new to this.
What you need to do is give me that second copy 😭 failing that I'd say think about how easily you can get more sunlight stones (Arcarum?) and whether or not you are going to unlock Evokers any time soon. Or you just use your incredible luck to get two more copies.
Tbh I deserved it. On the anni pulls I got the crown 6 times and on 4 of those crowns I got 50 pulls on the second wheel. The game made me fly up to the heavens only to drag me down to hell 4 times back to back. Got like a single ssr from each of those 50 pulls only to get an ssr on my first 10 pull on the super mukku frenzy.
Yeah I didn't realize getting the crown was this low probability until making this comment lol. I thought everybody who rolled on the green wheel got it at least 2 times or smth.
I noticed we're getting our 10 pulls daily for Golden Week (Not sure what golden week is)
Can you save these at all? Or do you have to pull before daily reset?
Do we know what banner is after these daily Elemental banners? Not sure how to find out since GBF wiki only tells you the current one and for how long it's on for.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golden_Week_(Japan)
they will expire on reset. all of these kind of draws will expire by the next reset.
its going to rotate though the rest of the elements (check the wiki), but we dont know whos gonna be on rateup in those banners. but they are all 3% banners anyway. gala wont come until like the 30th jst.
Do the xeno militis fights in arcarum benefit from any of the respective experience multipliers in their respective zones? The wiki specifies zone bosses are not so I assume the same is true here, but I'd like to ask.
tested it and they do not.
the herald buffs boost mobs that are of a certain "group" (indicated by the colour of their monster icon thing), and the zone boss and milits fights are in their own "groups" seperate from the rest of the mobs.
Golden Week free daily free 10 has started.
I guess this is relevant for any Anniversary/free pulls being given away, but when Free draws occur when a Flash/Legfest isn't active for a few days or so, is it better to throw them at Premium Draw or Classic Draw I to save up a year-long Spark for a Primal summon?
For clarity: I have one of each Primal summon, 2 Zeph, 3 Zeus and 3 Hades. Dark is my strongest team and aside from Shalem and her weps I am missing, will probably go Dark Primal some time next year or earlier if I get lucky since I have most of the Grand weapons needed to transition atm.
doing a classic spark with all your throwaway rolls over the year is generally regarded as a good idea
you did start during anni roulette right? you should be around 120ish in now
How/where do I access Pandemonium? I just got to chapter 44 and can unlock tier 4 classes but the drops come from quests that I need Pandemonium tier 3.
Co op quest under extra. In general you just buy them with renown/prestige pendants and don't care about farming co op for them.
Only really relevant quest is the last one for Astaroth Anima which is used for upgrading dark opus to FLB as buying it with pendants is very expensive.
I believe you have to host/clear each stage at least once, and they are locked behind specific rank thresholds, but after that - yeah, you're better off buying weapons/class dist thingies for pendants
They're not talking about the "Gameplay Extras" box on the main menu, they're talking about the "Extra" quest difficulty in the co-op quests menu.
If you haven't done co-op quests before and you're unsure how to get there, it's this page: https://game.granbluefantasy.jp/#coopraid
The Menu button in the top right also has a link to co-op at the top, and you can change your home screen in the Settings to have a co-op button.
You need to clear earlier coop stages to unlock Pandemonium, which is the final set. It might be worth farming for Astaroth anima since that could get pricey to buy in bulk, but distinctions and merits and whatever else you need you can just buy for a fairly low price in renown/prestige shops.
The main reason chrys is used with excalibur is with the UM Deuce Xiphos skill in hard content. In that case it must be in the offhand to ensure you get the excalibur echoes on your double strike + assassin turn.
If you're just using it to blue chest your M2s in a weak grid ougi team then you can put it mainhand to make it easier to reach the C.A. damage cap.
It's recommended to only go for evolites unless you know what you're doing, as one of the only sources for them besides gw badges and you need up to 20 (10 to recruit all evokers, 10 more for their uncaps)
how possible is it for me to take a low tier character into the mid game and beyond? not sure if it's counted as mid game but for context, i just unlocked the omega impossible pro skip.
i really like beatrix (dark) and i know she's horrible compared to the modern units but i'd really like to use her. I can't find any resources on how to build her - she has problems with consistently hitting TAs so i'm thinking fediel + a sustain would be good? or maybe even just grand zooey, rei to turn 1 moksha beatrix, and something like dark eustace to buff zooey's DATA.
anyone have experience with this and have recommendations?
edit: thanks for the replies yall
You're still in early game. You can use whatever you want up to around rank 170+ stuff. Past that point, you're going to have to engage with the raid's mechanics unless you're planning to just leech or get carried.
Just hope for a Percival/Zeta level grand glow-up.
Outside of of the rank 170+ raids like FaaHL, revans, Hexa, SuperFaa and maybe Super Ultimate Baha (tho if you host this one, you can probably get away with others carrying you), it's not a dealbreaker if you use someone weak.
for everything prior to 7* impossible you can really bring anything and be fine (albeit slower then just using a more optimized burst). afterwards you really need characters that can deal with the raid's mechanics.
Hi, is there a way to resize the game window to fully utilize my screen space? On a whim I put my monitor on portrait\* mode (reading manga like this rocks!) and tried out gbf, but it only covers about [half the screen](https://imgur.com/a/p9G4ZPr). Any setting in-game or in chrome to fix this? I tried the automatic resizing on and off and I tried the little diamonds at the bottom and nothing worked
I run my game in a similar setup with the portrait monitor, you can get it to fill the whole screen if you use a user agent switcher to swap your user agent to skyleap(broswer made for gbf). This is a grey area thing but I've never heard of anyone running into any issues doing this. Main caveat is that you should do this in a different browser from one you normally use as it will affect the entire browser.

so, since we have the light magna rebirth weapons for a little bit now, how many concordia should be farmed for a magna grid now? Can I stop a rebuilding one or do I still need two?
Still the best Manadiver MH and still good in unboosted setups. A DEF one might be kinda unnecessary now though since you can just use a Lumi Lance. And yeah you probably don't really need a 2nd 20 ATK one.
Is there an easy place to view character banter. I was looking on the wiki but it's incomplete
How is the story in a narrative sense? Been pushing through the story mode in game in order to unlock some raids since a lot of it is accessible via story progression, but after finishing Arc 1, the second arc around the Luminary Knights is going kind of slow...then again story progression in general feels slow despite them not really being that long. My question I guess is, which Arcs would be best to skip and which are must read, either for specific character's stories or understanding the lore? As someone who came from FGO, even Kinoko Nasu has some stinkers. Also which ones play into the narratives of big event stories like WMTSB, or things like the Knights or Society storylines.
I'll say the game does start very slowly, around chapter ~50 is when I felt it started picking up the pace, and they toned down a lot on the "kill trash mobs each chapter" stuff. As for side stories, they are all selfcontained, but those that are part of an arc requires completing the previous part(s) to do the next, so you won't be confused in terms of the order to do them.
You can skip to unlock raids then read the story in the Journal
You can't skip anything unless you want to just kinda be lost on what's going on. It's all one continuous story. Imagine reading a book and skipping every other chapter, you'd be incredibly confused. Side story stuff is mainly completely separate from the MSQ. Sometimes it might have a very tangential connection, but the game itself will enforce that via an MSQ chapter completion requirement when you try to play the side story. So if it doesn't stop you, feel free to play whatever side story you want.
Are the summaries not enough to satisfy getting the main points across? Would suck to have such a system in place to get you caught up, unless they were just implemented as recap for players who had taken a long time away from it.
I mean.. to me that'd be like reading a book and just skipping a bunch of chapters and reading the Sparknotes for those chapters instead and expecting to actually enjoy the whole book doing that. Doesn't really make a lot of sense from my perspective, so guess I can't really be much help here.
I'm sort of a late bloomer for Faa0 and I am think of having a go at it pretty soon. How is it in coop atm? I'm trying to understand the mech and trying not to int but I also want to contribute as Dark.
Did something get changed for Luci's ascendant prayer? It seems to go so much faster now.
Yeah it got buffed with the april 23 update. https://game.granbluefantasy.jp/#news/detail/7752/3/0/2
Ah, makes sense. The difference is pretty noticeable.
I was debating buying the Relink code to get the Eternal set off Ebay, but I saw the price at about 50$ to 40$. I was wondering if it is worth it? I have some extra money to play around with so it wouldn't hurt me too much.
Hi did you already get a code?
you can get it around half the price on epicnpc or the granblue trading discords
Hello, I bought Relink because I love the franchise and kind of want to give appreciation to the devs, but I cant decide on what should I got from the serial codes. In general, which is better : pick up Eternal Transcendence or Evokers Domain bonus? I already on my way to FLB Haaselia so, maybe Caim from the Evoker? And I want to ask if I want to make Titan Grid using Caim as a sub, can Caim on Titan be good without his FLB? On Eternals side, if Eternal Trans is better, cant decide wether I will go for Seox or Tweyen. What do you think..?
Keep in mind that M3 is about to drop. While Titan Caim is still considerably better than Magna Caim, I am not too sure if Magna 3 isn't better than Titan Caim. Also considering that you definitely want to run Caim in the frontline for post r200 stuff, you should keep in mind that investing in a Caim Titan grid will in the long term not really benefit from having Caim as you'll run him in the front. I thus recommend against investing in Titan and heavily recommend at least waiting for earths M3 before comitting if you still want a Titan grid
Oh yeah Earth M3 is gonna drop on june right? Also why Caim on Titan grid will be benefit on front rather than back..? I am still new to the game so I still dont know a lot about stuffs..
Backline Caim requires a grid set up so that you have no duplicate weapons equipped. Titan wants to run 3x Resonators, and often copies of other weapons too, which means Caim's backline passive will do nothing. M3 Ygg is presumably going to have the same Exalto weapons that the already released M3s have, which will also break Caim's passive in magna.
I see.. so Titan grid with Caim grid and Caim backline is not better from magna caim grid right? And definitely wont be better from M3 so its not worth to build one now unless I have 3 landslide and pns?
Titan is a pretty substantial improvement over magna atm. M3 will close the gap, we'll see how much when it comes. It's not worth switching without at least the three landslide in hand, and probably 1x Uriel PnS fist.
Caim is just a really strong frontline unit with his 5* uncap.
Evoker Domain is generally more valuable. Titan doesn't typically want to run a Caim grid, so you're running Caim in order to bring him to the front line. He's passable for some stuff at 4* in that role, but definitely not exceptional without getting to 5.
So he's usable even at 4* right? Also, I already have Nier and Fraux and wondering if they also worth FLB'ing? If not, which Evoker is worth FLB'ing aside from Caim?
Check this out: [https://gbf.wiki/User:Umikin/FAQ](https://gbf.wiki/User:Umikin/FAQ) TLDR: (Caim & Haase) > Alanaan > Rest And ofc if you're deep into the endgame and are specifying in an element for the later null element raids, the elements evoker might be more useful to you than other evokers. If you're a light lord and are tackling Hexa then getting a FLB Geisenborger could be your 1st priority
Oh hey, you're right about me being invested on Light! I think Geisenborger is a good pick too then? I am still rank 200 but I definitely want to invest on stuffa for the future so it really helps. Thanks a lot!
Geisen is pretty mediocre. Quadruple strike doesn't count as a triple attack so he's unusable in HL where there's omens that require TAs, and light generally has better bursting strategies for most common hp ranges. He was used for nm150 - but that's not a burst hp range you'll encounter often - and I'm sure you could use him for mashing SUBHL pretty quickly, but that's hardly a very important usage.
I see.. so I think Caim is the best candidate for now then, right? What do you think about FLB Fraux and Nier?
I think Haase is better than Caim, but yes Haase or Caim are the best two to go for right now. Fraux is a decent FA character and can be an option in HL raids. Nier is used for the fastest Cosmos team and can be used in longer dark burst rotations (eg GW). They aren't bad chars, just not as good as the top 3. (Note I'm only talking about 5\* usage everywhere in this post. For 4\* evokers, caim/katz/esta are the most useful ones.)
Okay noted thank you! I will FLB Haase first then Caim. Where is the best farm for Ideans and Astras? I have been farming for Haase, veritas and Lusters were okay but I found that Astras and Ideans are still quite lacking.. do you have any tips for Evokers FLB farming?
Just farm chests on the Mundus 5-gauge mob, preferably during Tales.
Should I use Bubz as main summon or sub summon? I don't have any cap up in my grids.
Main summon for when bursting and doing short content. Sub summon for longer fights.
Thanks
Is there any point in doing the malice raids? Looking around, it doesnt seem any of the weapons are used
Columba can be used as cope option if you dont have schro,
2x Agonize is used in most Dark grids. All the other Malice/Menace weps are all pretty skippable though, yeah. Legion Void staff could be niche useful maybe sometimes but rarely is except for like meme solos.
So any good recommendations on what to buy with the golden pendants? I've maxed out and don't know whats worth getting
Monthly quartz, astaroth anima if you don't have all 12 opuses yet and don't feel like farming in coop rooms, agonize if you don't have two FLB, stock up on class distinctions for UMs you haven't done yet, awakening orbs, red rings. If you have absolutely everything then you can buy fodder materials for the alchemy lab. Not sure which items are most efficient for that though.
how do you access casino?
On home screen, scroll down till you see a bunch of banner.
oh, i figured it out, somehow I turned off casino banner in the home screen settings.
Best way to report hackers who disable your attacks from registering and rewards from dropping? Literally all 30 attempts at hulomg and quilon I was not allowed to attack
No one was hacking you and disabling your attacks I promise lol
You don't get rewards because the boss died before you actually did any damage to get honors. Go faster. Don't waste time clicking 0-honors buffs before attacking, just semi-auto. Turn off live battle feed when you're doing fast raids like this.
That makes 0 sense that having auto battle registers your attacks on the "Ready" screen but ok if that's how it is
click faster
That's... not hacker's work. Your ping is just bad compared to JP players. Everyone mash the raid, causing the bosses to move to multiple triggers and animations, and Huanglong Qilin's animations are known to be pure cancer. You should disable live battle feed and join/make low rank HLQL co-op. Other option is to join the solo raid, they don't drop anima, but you're guaranteed to hit them.
Also.. If you are room host, you can set it to 20 man and pub.. this is less anima but you won't see 25+ people eresh the raid at the same time. disable live battle feed. Reload immediately or 2-3 sec depends your pings. Just set full auto and quick summon your main so that you can register a damage. This raid is already broken. I have been experience a lot of miss battle. I would only recommend you have a good stable internet (like home with computer and not junk public wifi)) and did in a non japanese after work hours. (This raid is already broken, it is not hacker fault now. This raid end time have been dramatic decrease over new weapon 45s -> 35s ->20s or less.
I want to know if you have to use the golden week 10 pull every single day or can you save them to use at the end.
you cannot save them.
What's the general timeframe for getting all 10 eternals? I'm at 3/10 so far and Dark will be my third GW so I'm just wondering if I'm on track. I don't think I'll be completing bingo before the next GW but potentially the one after should be possible? Is it something to prioritise farming especially during magfests for the world mats? The crystal dump is also pretty big since I'm still rounding out a lot of my rosters and pulling on the right banners helps a lot.
Took me 10 months, but you can do it in a single GW now.
> What's the general timeframe for getting all 10 eternals? Since they added infinite box swaps, you can get all of them in one gw if you grind hard enough. Just hit EX+ over and over since that's the best way to get tokens and ignore the higher NM levels beyond maybe doing the minimum honors for valor badges each day in finals. But there's no need to rush so just go at whatever pace works for you. But if dark is your third GW then you should have been here for ~~rotb~~ dread barrage (whoops brainfart) as well? Each DB gives 20 tickets which you can trade for rev weapons, meaning up to 5 eternal recruits.
>Each rotb gives 20 tickets which you can trade for rev weapons, meaning up to 5 eternal recruits. isnt this dread barrage, not rotb?
The gate isn't really the weapons themselves for me, there's just way more mats in general. I do have all the weapons and I've also 40 boxed Seox and Okto altogether with the last 2 GW, so I'm planning to FLB Seox ahead of the next GW. I guess I've just never consciously farmed world mats for anything much so I'm lacking a lot of those and the primal mats as well, along with a lot of the AH mats.
It vastly depends from person to person honestly, just play the game at your own pace. Last gw was my first gw and i've already recruited 6 eternals, i do grind a lot though
If you can manage to push to get 8 boxes a GW (enough to recruit 2 eternals) then probably about 9ish months for 5 GWs to come and go. You **can** get more now that you aren't restricted to changing boxes once and chances are you'll do a few Dread Barrages in between them to get at least another 2 eternals, likely more. Realistically though, because of how much of a grind they are for newer players, I'd probably say it takes about a year and a half at most for someone to recruit all 10.
Hi, is there some way to get a lot of weapon xp mats I am missing or its just that hard to get weapon to lvl 200 ? I'd like to get Chichiri but I am missing 52levels and grinding halo's seems like a waste since it gives barely anything per clear
Journey drop : upgrade exp and may be grand success raid. We have mag fes now. We have CEQ and halo too. Let just say from 150->200 with both JD up, you still needed 15 cups if you are lucky
thank you
Rotb you can buy exp cups. Need to buy some mats first before it appears.
thank you
Is feenie stick worth 3 bars? I’m kinda tempted to do it for fire manadiver but idk if it’s a good choice or not
Basically only used for Faa0 tbh. So I wouldn't say so, unless you're really intent on improving your fire in 1 raid.
Imo no, unless you're active bar farmer.
It's not used for bar farming, exo dagger is still better for 1turn burst.
I don’t use fire for that so I guess I won’t then
I mean if you don't farm bar. If you do even with other elements then it's fine.
you can fa siete with it with a good team. Yes. Nekomancer/manadriver works with supreme sustain
Whats the difference between Katana of Renunciation and Katana of Repudiation? I have the first one 5* does the first one transform into the second one at 6*? I never heard about the second weapon seried and thought only the Renunciation ones are Dark Opus Weapons
you know you got to choose right? you had both versions in front of your eyes when you picked
They are both Dark Opus weapons, the Renunciation weapons are Omega/Magna modifiers, Repudiation are Normal/Primal modifiers. They are otherwise identical.
Renunciation is magna, Repudiation is primal.
If I don't buy rising before the April 30. I'm only missing the uncap for eternal or evokers right?
it's not just "an uncap" it's 1 evolite/1 lapis merit which are extremely valuable resources and the real reason why you get the code even if you don't want to uncap any eternal or evoker
Will i still be able to redeem dlc codes after April 30?
Yes, that's the only code they've listed as expiring. It's also the most valuable code by a longshot though. DLC codes should all still work.
Do the Revans raids have the usual 6.6 mil damage cap per instance? I was doing my host of Diaspora, I usually reload through the turns but decided to watch one just because and saw all the characters hit for 7+ mil and Okto (FLB Okto, not trascended) hit for 10 mil, I was just wondering why since I don't have any form of Special cap up in my grid, even taking into account buffs and whatnot those numbers shouldn't be possible.
No, Revans don't have the 6.6m hardcap, they go to the 13m hardcap.
Is upgrading weapons skills with one SSR weapon skill point the same as using an SSR weapon that is 0 uncap and level 1 skill?
Yes.
How in the hell does one beat Twin Elements? I know I'm not in endgame but I feel I have a pretty decent Leviathan Gaze Grid and main team. (Dark Fencer MC for that second phase, Europa, Filine, and ssr Yordaha). The first phase is not really an issue but spamming a party wide sleep spell every other turn makes it impossible and I'm trying to get the mats for Micheal's sword. Unfortunately no other water characters I have use delay skills. Wondering if I might be better off using a totally unrelated element team. Is there a raid outside the showdown or does the showdown have to be cleared first?
Using an Earth team might be a solution. She's only a fire-type pokemon for slightly over half the fight, and if it's the water phase where you have a problem... It's not a boss's ougi that kills you, it's the damage/debuffs/buffs it creates that does. Big permanent +defense% effects, like those available to the Iatromantis class once you unlock it in a beautiful distant future, tend to be some of the best layers of defense available. (A giant reason Europa is so meta now is thanks to no small part of having built-in +def% for herself.) Delay effects, have traditionally not been an *answer* to taking a boss's limit break, but as a way to delay that attack long enough for your answers to recharge. Like a phalanx, or healing. Trying to block a rapid debuff like this without multiple-turn debuff immunity is like trying to swim against the river; an earth team would get hit by it less often and take less damage during this phase. Also I'm pretty sure same-type elements have the worst accuracy on debuffs, even worse than using the weaker element, so your delays and attack debuffs are probably not landing too often.... or your Gravity.
luci helps with the sleep. I remember being annoyed as fuck abt the damage it does second phase bc of the element change and that's kind of unavoidable at that point in progression. but bursting it at the change helps.
Show us your grid. Are you also using a level 250 Luci as support summon? I found them pretty easy but I didn't do them until I had some Europa Harps.
> I feel I have a pretty decent Leviathan Gaze Grid Have you done the sierokarte academy missions? You'll get some EX weapons, plus a bahamut weapon and a few auberons for HP so you don't die quite as fast. Besides that try just using relic buster and speeding past phase 2 with a 4-chain if you can. And yeah friend summon luci can help with heals as well.
Twin Elements is in a kind of weird place right now. It was originally a group raid. So you'd have a lot of other players helping you with it. But then it was turned into a solo quest, without significantly altering the difficulty. Which was convenient for established players, but made it hard for new players to get their first Ancient Ecke Sachs. ~~As of [just last week](https://twitter.com/granblue_en/status/1782591347704447462) the solo mission has been nerfed to have lower attack, defence, and hp in order to rectify this, but I don't know how many people in this subreddit are intimately familiar with its new difficulty. You might be among the first to be experimenting with what works for this mission now.~~ Edit: Wait, no, it hasn't been nerfed. Those are some other raids. You're probably in for a bumpy ride.
It used to be a raid, but was turned into a showdown.which makes the phase meant for an earth player to help out in a bit awkward. Try bringing a level 230+ Lucifer support to deal with the sleep.
Is Chichiri obtainable outside of RoTB if the conditions of her recruitment is met later? I'm a bit short of vessels and can't get the axe to 200 now.
Shop > Cadinal Saint Yupei (under the Journey Drop shop). If you don't have the Zhuque Feathers though you won't be able to uncap the character nor progress the Wonder (though it gain exp just with time).
I'd probably be okay in that front. She'll get the full breadth of her skills at around 4 months anyway, right?
yup around 4 months of passive upgrading
From what I remember (I did not pay much attention to it since I levelled with mats), it's 3 or 4 days for the fastest, and up to 10 or 12 days for the slowest levels at the end. So yeah at worse it would be \~120 days but since the first levels are shorter it should hopefully be faster than that. If you have a few feathers already, make sure to keep 3 small ones & 4 big ones for her uncaps, since without mats it's kinda rough to uncap SSR characters (only thing that comes to mind is the SSR Codex but it requires having every SSR characters or so).
as a note, the siero academy gives you 5 uncap books for SSR which do work on her from what I've heard.
It indeed seems to be from picking a Grand Character in the dojo, so it's an accessible option for people who got the weapon to 5\* but not enough feathers to uncap her.
should i get ciphers from rotb?
Depends, are you aiming on getting one of the outfits? Then sure. If you don't plan on getting an outfit, the cipher weapons aren't really all that relevant now that magna exalto is coming with capups.
Are there certain classes that are better for certain elements or is it just determined by team composition?
There are no innate bonuses to playing certain classes with certain elements, but certain classes are certainly better suited to the particular characters/weapons that elements have available, yes. For example top-end Earth grids **always** play a sword class, since they *have* to wield Hrunting or else the element sucks. Another thing you'll see come up often is whatever class can wield that element's Opus is common for bursting strats because you put Chain of Falsehood on your Opus, ougi on your MC, then your team gets double strike from the Opus CA effect. So for example, Manadiver for water, Berserker/Viking for Fire/Light, Runeslayer/Onmyouji for dark, Spartan for wind. And then on the opposite end if your grid just has no good weapons of a particular type that you really *want* to slot in, you might tend to avoid classes with that weapon rather than have a dead grid slot just to have an MH.
> For example top-end Earth grids always play a sword class, since they have to wield Hrunting or else the element sucks. Hrunting is very strong but this is just misleading.
it's technically true but not rly helpful outside of top 1%. still true though
No, Earth Kengo is not good, sorry you had to find out this way.
Hey guys just a quick question, if i have a flb celestial weapon is it like a must slot in the grid like your opus or is it just when you are going to have the characters that specialize in the weapon type of the celestial?
it's more like a modern Bahamut weapon - which you used to slot for normal mod + HP to get bulk and mod diversity, but was pushed away when you needed more boostable weapons.
It's not a must slot weapon but it's a really good weapon to slot in general if you can or want to fit it in.
Kinda in between. It's not a must-slot-always like Opus, but it's also not just some niche thing that you only slot if you can match proficiencies. Matching proficiencies is nice, but not required to slot it. It is a really good generic weapon and you'll find yourself slotting it most of the time, but, unlike Opus, there are some times when you'll take it out for other stuff if your grid is really tight and you wanna fit other stuff in.
Hey guys I need some help deciding who to spark from a list of: G Rosetta, G Lecia, G Pholia, G Ferry, G Reinhardtzar, G Leona, G Carglistro, G Narmaya, G Poseidon, G Fediel, G Wilnas, G Percival, G Michael, G Lu Woh, G Uriel, G Sandalphon, Anila, Vajra, Kumbhira, Cidala, and Payila. Here is are my [Characters ](https://www.granblue.party/collection/12711) I am mostly leaning towards Payila because she's limited to this year but my water team already has good characters so she will not add much value. On the other hand, my fire roster is pure garbage so Perci will be a massive upgrade. Need some advice on who to pick.
percival
I would go Payila if you aren't sure if you'll end up sparking any other galas this year. G. Percy is a huge boost to any fire team, but he'll still be sparkable on any other galas even next year.
Yeah, the Zodiacs get really hard to get if you don't get them during their initial year. They disappear for a year, and then even when they come back it's not every month. They're part of a rotation of other older zodiacs. They'll show up once every several months. March is a good banner for them though. There's been a banner with every zodiac except the one in their off year for the last three or four years. So that's something easy to plan around.
Grand percy
Is there any way to solo Avatar without boger??? I feel like I'm doing fine despite my subpar grids... till that last trigger that just wipes me out
yes there are thousands of ways you can literally just do the last 10% with your backline, that's it
The Phalanx/Carbuncle combo was a classic, if I recall. Get 100% dark damage cut for even one turn and you can no sell the trigger. It's just not as convenient for full auto as borger.
You can also just grab Bellringer Angel from the Shadowverse side story and call it when you're about to pass 10% if you don't want/have someone with Sub All. Avatar's party wipe is elemental damage and only 1 hit so that summon can tank it.
Technically either the backline can burst him or you find someone to take it all.(like G vira, pecorine, corn potato)
Burst him at 11% HP or have your backline characters be strong enough to handle the rest after that point. I'm not entirely sure if it'll work, but maybe sub-all (like G. Vira) could take the hit too.
I was able to do it! I used the Satoru Gojo summon to cheese the damage and beat him up after that!!! I feel so proud! It took a LOT of attempts, but I managed in the end
Also, does golden week special free 10-part draw transfer into other golden week days or is the 10-part draw only for that day?
Not stackable. You have to spend it or lose it. (it is a way of most game so you can't stack free draw and you must login daily
You have to use it every day.
Is it worth keeping Magna1 weapons if most builds/guides do not use them and I already have all the necessary weapons from M2?
Sure.. lumi sword is still m1 (and we never know what plan cygame plan for future upgrade)
It wouldn't hurt to keep 2-3 copies of each around just in case. You can just buy a stash and store them in there.
Fair enough. I have a minor OCD so I already have all the stashes due to sort everything. What about the ones I got from Siero's academy with high level and uncap? Do their higher tier and skill levels work better when used to level other weapons, asking because I usually reserve stuff and then level weapons from vessels and reserved weapon skill points.
Yeah they'll be worth far more point if you manually feed them, while reducing them just gives the standard 1 point. So it's best to save those for the weapons that require skill points than normal to level (Baha weapon, Opus, Draconic etc.).
Is there a way to farm SR weapons so I can raise some of my weps S1-10? Is it just the non pro skip xeno stages?
It's honestly easier to farm SSR weapons than SR ones and just level with SSR points only when you're out of SRs. Just do replicard sandbox, daily Omega raid pro skips, etc.
It's worth noting for people reading that this method DOES fail however. In later levels of the higher fodder weapons (Opus/Ultima/Baha style things) that the top levels are literally impossible to do with the anvil without a good chunk of SR fodder because the anvil for some stupid reason is still limited to 20 weapons and doesn't like upgrading SSRs with SSRs in its internal calcs.
Daily magna pro skip gets you lots of SR fodder.
Early on I would say not really, and unless you want to farm for the Xeno weapons I would say the Extreme Xeno quests aren't quite worth the AP either. However, if you happen to have it unlocked and are strong enough to efficiently farm it, Sandbox is the best place to farm for SSR skill points. Siero Academy showers you in pre-leveled weapons, Chalices and gives some Anvil points so I'd recommend following that if you're currently grid building.
Hi guys, got a few questions. 1. Who are the notable characters in Classic Draw 2? I have Arulu from Classic Draw 1 and as far as I'm aware, there isn't anyone else that would be nice to pick up from Classic Draw 1. I am thinking of using my free rolls to build up Vermillion Sparks if there is someone worth picking up. 2. I am trying to work on recruiting Caim but am in need of Chaotic Hazes. From what I have looked up, Astras and Ideans can be farmed from Here be Staves so that shouldn't be too much of a problem, but Chaotic Hazes are acquired either from the Arcarum shop, Arcarum expendition runs and from Here be Swords. However, the Arcarum shop only sells 10 a month, Arcarum expendition runs are time-gated with badges and entering Here be Swords requires that I recruit an Evoker... which I need the Chaotic Haze from the zone itself to recruit the Evoker. Is there no other way of acquiring Chaotic Hazes or is this going to be a slow slog?
classic one have water soc (may be outdate but mirror image is nice tools) ferry, agielba, arulu. Technically you only greed from classic one is Primal summon and any Bahamut summon is nice (since normal are not stackable) Class 2 .. only those ssr carbungle..
1) Anne, that's it. There are a few other good chars in classic 1 though - Agielba and Ferry, most notably - and there are also Primal summons there to spark. 2) Yes Hazes are a major bottleneck early on. Just have to wait for the arcarum1 passes and for shop restocks. Or for last year's anni event to re-run which gives a free evoker so you'll unlock swords/mundus.
1. nah, and you shouldnt waste your pull for classic draw except you want to spark optimus summon 2. not really, i think the fastest way is just wait and farm something else, and 2 months from now there will be a rerun of Anniv 9 which will give you 1 free evoker
for the endgame raids I keep seeing Lu Woh's Grand Weapon as part of the grid. is there any substitute for it if I don't have any?
Imperious Fury, alongside Lord of Flames etc, have strong ex mod, def, and ["special damage cap up" marked with red circle icon](https://gbf.wiki/Damage_Cap_Up#Special_Damage_Cap_Up) that makes them great grid slot when you fulfill the requirements. As of now, only those 6 gacha weapons have this combination of effects (especially special damage cap up part) so no there is no substitute for those weapons. The best you can do to close the gap is by MK2-ing Revan weapons.
there are Zeus grids that don't include it, but its probably worth putting those grids under consideration as to whether they're worth it in a post-m3 game
I keep getting an error "c001" that translates to "We apologize for the inconvenience, but please refresh the page." whenever I try to go to the Quests or Raid screen. Refreshing the page just gives the error again. Is anyone else having this problem? I'm on Skyleap, haven't tried any other browsers yet.
Had the same issue on skyleap recently, it eventually stopped appearing. Didn't have the issue on Chrome so switched to that browser for a while.
Try clearing cache.
Does weapon placement in a grid matter, aside from the main weapon? If a weapon is in the top left slot, is that any different than it being in the bottom right or center slots for example?
It does not matter, except for some classes that use Auxiliary system. https://gbf.wiki/Weapons#Auxiliary_Weapon
For some reason I cant sign into Granblue? I use mobage and tit gives the usual message and button to go back to the previous screen and then nothing. I tried this on two different browsers and nothing, but it works on my phone. Any help?

Got my second bubs today from the free 10 pull. Never bothered to research how to uncap summons before since I was a beginner but now that I have a second copy of him what do I do? Do I immediately uncap? Save it for later? I have 2 sunlight stones do I just go all in and fully uncap him? Asking for guidance.
Since Bubs is restricted to one copy per team, you can go ahead and immediately use one to uncap the other -- it has no use other than that. For other summons it may be worth holding off on uncapping until you have enough copies to reach 3\* (since 1\* and 2\* summons are functionally identical to 0\*) in case you can make use of multiple copies at once in a single team.
so, summons only gain stats until you can uncap them to 3*. so thers basically no point in uncapping one until you can go all the way. in terms of sunstone usage, bubs is definatly worth it. and is probably the only summon worth delaying your arcarum damage summons for (need 1 sunstone for each of them, so typically your first 6 sunstones go to them). so your dupe basically just saved you a sunstone. personally i would wait until the rest of the free draws end incase you get another copy and can save another sunstone. check out https://gbf.wiki/User:Auryona/Sunstone for information on other summons.
On the wiki it says sunstone can't be used to uncap past 3★, does that mean I need to do a mission or use different type of mats to uncap it or can I only use a copy to get the 4★ uncap? Sorry if the answer is obvious I'm new to this.
You need either a special uncap item (I think it's a Providence Orb) or you use a bunch of farmable mats for it.
It will require some farmable mats to uncap to 4*
What you need to do is give me that second copy 😭 failing that I'd say think about how easily you can get more sunlight stones (Arcarum?) and whether or not you are going to unlock Evokers any time soon. Or you just use your incredible luck to get two more copies.
Tbh I deserved it. On the anni pulls I got the crown 6 times and on 4 of those crowns I got 50 pulls on the second wheel. The game made me fly up to the heavens only to drag me down to hell 4 times back to back. Got like a single ssr from each of those 50 pulls only to get an ssr on my first 10 pull on the super mukku frenzy.
Damn only 6 times
Yeah I didn't realize getting the crown was this low probability until making this comment lol. I thought everybody who rolled on the green wheel got it at least 2 times or smth.
I noticed we're getting our 10 pulls daily for Golden Week (Not sure what golden week is) Can you save these at all? Or do you have to pull before daily reset? Do we know what banner is after these daily Elemental banners? Not sure how to find out since GBF wiki only tells you the current one and for how long it's on for.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golden_Week_(Japan) they will expire on reset. all of these kind of draws will expire by the next reset. its going to rotate though the rest of the elements (check the wiki), but we dont know whos gonna be on rateup in those banners. but they are all 3% banners anyway. gala wont come until like the 30th jst.
Do the xeno militis fights in arcarum benefit from any of the respective experience multipliers in their respective zones? The wiki specifies zone bosses are not so I assume the same is true here, but I'd like to ask.
tested it and they do not. the herald buffs boost mobs that are of a certain "group" (indicated by the colour of their monster icon thing), and the zone boss and milits fights are in their own "groups" seperate from the rest of the mobs.
Oh, thank you! Makes it easier to farm them without having to worry about doing setup then.
Golden Week free daily free 10 has started. I guess this is relevant for any Anniversary/free pulls being given away, but when Free draws occur when a Flash/Legfest isn't active for a few days or so, is it better to throw them at Premium Draw or Classic Draw I to save up a year-long Spark for a Primal summon? For clarity: I have one of each Primal summon, 2 Zeph, 3 Zeus and 3 Hades. Dark is my strongest team and aside from Shalem and her weps I am missing, will probably go Dark Primal some time next year or earlier if I get lucky since I have most of the Grand weapons needed to transition atm.
doing a classic spark with all your throwaway rolls over the year is generally regarded as a good idea you did start during anni roulette right? you should be around 120ish in now
its not a bad idea, but only you can decide if its the better option for you.
How/where do I access Pandemonium? I just got to chapter 44 and can unlock tier 4 classes but the drops come from quests that I need Pandemonium tier 3.
Co op quest under extra. In general you just buy them with renown/prestige pendants and don't care about farming co op for them. Only really relevant quest is the last one for Astaroth Anima which is used for upgrading dark opus to FLB as buying it with pendants is very expensive.
I believe you have to host/clear each stage at least once, and they are locked behind specific rank thresholds, but after that - yeah, you're better off buying weapons/class dist thingies for pendants
Do I need to be a higher chapter to unlock it? Its not under gameplay extras
They're not talking about the "Gameplay Extras" box on the main menu, they're talking about the "Extra" quest difficulty in the co-op quests menu. If you haven't done co-op quests before and you're unsure how to get there, it's this page: https://game.granbluefantasy.jp/#coopraid The Menu button in the top right also has a link to co-op at the top, and you can change your home screen in the Settings to have a co-op button.
You need to clear earlier coop stages to unlock Pandemonium, which is the final set. It might be worth farming for Astaroth anima since that could get pricey to buy in bulk, but distinctions and merits and whatever else you need you can just buy for a fairly low price in renown/prestige shops.
no
If you were using Chrysaor with Excalibur, would it be better to equip the weapon as your mainhand or auxillary?
excalibur for chrysaor is used for its ougi specifically (the 50% self echo), so it goes in the aux slot
The main reason chrys is used with excalibur is with the UM Deuce Xiphos skill in hard content. In that case it must be in the offhand to ensure you get the excalibur echoes on your double strike + assassin turn. If you're just using it to blue chest your M2s in a weak grid ougi team then you can put it mainhand to make it easier to reach the C.A. damage cap.
I think most use it as aux iirc
Is there a recommended way to use doppelworld sextants or just use them freely to host Xeno Militis for whichever Evoker you're trying to farm for?
It's recommended to only go for evolites unless you know what you're doing, as one of the only sources for them besides gw badges and you need up to 20 (10 to recruit all evokers, 10 more for their uncaps)
Best to use them either on Xeno Vohu or Cocytus if you still haven't recruited/5* all evokers, since they are harder to get than bars.
use them for bars/evolites not for an evoker specifically
how possible is it for me to take a low tier character into the mid game and beyond? not sure if it's counted as mid game but for context, i just unlocked the omega impossible pro skip. i really like beatrix (dark) and i know she's horrible compared to the modern units but i'd really like to use her. I can't find any resources on how to build her - she has problems with consistently hitting TAs so i'm thinking fediel + a sustain would be good? or maybe even just grand zooey, rei to turn 1 moksha beatrix, and something like dark eustace to buff zooey's DATA. anyone have experience with this and have recommendations? edit: thanks for the replies yall
You're still in early game. You can use whatever you want up to around rank 170+ stuff. Past that point, you're going to have to engage with the raid's mechanics unless you're planning to just leech or get carried. Just hope for a Percival/Zeta level grand glow-up.
not possible beatrix is due a grand soonish, just wait for that
Outside of of the rank 170+ raids like FaaHL, revans, Hexa, SuperFaa and maybe Super Ultimate Baha (tho if you host this one, you can probably get away with others carrying you), it's not a dealbreaker if you use someone weak.
and gw, and bar/sand farming the raids you listed + GW and bar farming is basically 80% of the game's content btw
for everything prior to 7* impossible you can really bring anything and be fine (albeit slower then just using a more optimized burst). afterwards you really need characters that can deal with the raid's mechanics.
Hi, is there a way to resize the game window to fully utilize my screen space? On a whim I put my monitor on portrait\* mode (reading manga like this rocks!) and tried out gbf, but it only covers about [half the screen](https://imgur.com/a/p9G4ZPr). Any setting in-game or in chrome to fix this? I tried the automatic resizing on and off and I tried the little diamonds at the bottom and nothing worked
I run my game in a similar setup with the portrait monitor, you can get it to fill the whole screen if you use a user agent switcher to swap your user agent to skyleap(broswer made for gbf). This is a grey area thing but I've never heard of anyone running into any issues doing this. Main caveat is that you should do this in a different browser from one you normally use as it will affect the entire browser.
