Board 8 > Tales Of Crestoria Released (Mobile Game)

(+) Yeah! (+)

I think I pulled three or four times since the initial set, and have gotten nothing. I probably should have held onto it too because five SSRs seems fine for the time being, and I still have work to be done on them. I have 6k left in the bank now

---

That's part of the reason I haven't pulled. I got 6 SSRs from the get go so I'm fairly set. Even if I got another SSR I wouldn't have the materials or gald to use on them anyway, it's already tight just to keep my main 4 going.

My substones are trash and that's kinda why I'm tempted to pull because being able to field more of the same weapon type seems a sizable boost and right now all I can do is 4/4/1. But I'd imagine we will get farmable substones which could fix that a little bit.

I think I'm just on the pull whenever I get enough stones to pull plan, and just hit up whatever banner exists at the time. I get shafted enough in the other gachas I play, I just want to enjoy this one.

---

Im basically just pulling whenever yeah

---

Its not like Ill have anything to save for :x

---

I'm pretty satisfied with the 6 SSRs I have so I'm okay with saving. And it looks like we can get an earth element SSR in the next event?

---

So the reason nobody got arena rewards is that you have to fight a minimum of 40 fights to qualify and they forgot to include it in the English translation.

40 fights a week seems a lot because for a person logging in once a day they would only hit 30

I suspect the rewards will only be the stones, and not characters.

---

Ah you're probably right

Still set for now tho!

---

I just need an earth now.

Well, still a light too technically since Estelle is 0 offense, but she's still good to have and is sure to add to my average friend points per day.

Also, man, I have an absurd excess of fur and claw first level ascension materials, but no damn copper. Looking at the codex, the best spot for it is likely early on in Chapter 4, so I should stop doing side stories and just clean up the main missions.

---

Shadow is the only I don't have SSR for

---

please, enemies

i don't want the dragon blood

i just need one piece of obsidian

you can keep your blood

---

I have so much dragon blood

---

Time to start doing some more of the story on Hard. Finished Chap 1 Very Hard just now.

---

closer...

---

Got a dupe Aegis and now on a second Awakening he's totally viable. Don't underestimate dupes!

---

I'm not sure if I want to use Yuri because I like Lloyd a lot more but I got that Yuri dupe a couple days ago :S

---

I guess in the long run it won't matter, I just don't have the resources for both atm lol

---

I've been so bad at focusing on a single group of six

I just keep wanting to build everyone up. I have like nine or ten I play around with at building up, a team of 5 water, a team of 6 fire, a team of 5 earth, and a team of 5 wind that I'll use for Training dungeons, and my highest single character is 65 right now. I really should focus down and build Rita to 80 since everyone else I'm still iffy on. Maybe my one SSR Holy and one SSR Dark too for Support reasons even though they've been getting stomped for their lack of defense recently.

---

If I had Rita I could have such a solid Water team...

If I had Repede, I would...have an okay one. Who are yours?

Rita* (L65)
Genis (25)
Veigue (8)
Rondoline (1)
Aegis (31)

Yeah, nevermind. Mine sucks.


---

I'd have to build them but the team would be...

Repede
Kanonno
Aegis SSR
Rita

---

Where do you get the SSRs for main cast? Is it just from summons?

---

Summons yeah. I have SSR of Kanata and Aegis

---

What I'm seriously lacking in is AoE attacks. None of my SSRs have one except for Estelle's MA.

---

That's actually kind of why I went ham on my Kanata when I got him. That AoE is nice :)

---

I also have a Luke which I should probably build at some point, but my Fire team is probably going to be one of the last ones that I build

---

Looking forward to those 550 GLEAMSTONES today!

---

what are earth characters

cause i aint got none

---

oh hey I just pulled a cress

he's earth

they do exist

---

Cress is a monster, too.

Not surprising they did that since he's, like, the classic poster boy in Japan.

---

Really?

Cress looks incredibly BORING as a character to me. That design is just... *sleep*

---

I'm downloading this game now.

What tips do I need to know going in?

---

Also I have so many BP I can't keep up

I know it'll slow down once I stop ranking up so quickly but still, raids for days

---

Yeah, I only recently finally got it down below 10 last night and then I ranked up again...

Time for more dragon blood...

He's the OG MC!

I mean, yeah, I AGREE, but Japan is pretty big on legacy.

Lloyd is an SSR specialized in good defense with a minor in decent hits.
Yuri is an SSR with no attack, but a 7-hit arte, a 10-hit arte, and a 26! hit Mystic so he's combos up reaaaal well for others. Ooh, and a +10% Def to all when fully awakened? Daaamn, Lloyd, give me back all the levels I put into you.
Farah's got well-rounded stats, is a martial artist, and has a heal.
Cheria's a dagger-wielder with better defense than attack and a 3-cooldown AoE.
Malik is a sword-type with well-rounded stats, a high-attack gem, and some multi-hit artes.

IMO Yuri > Lloyd > Farah > Cheria > Malik

We're all still learning. Main thing is to remember (and these words will make sense as you go) that your Memoria is almost as important to level as your characters, though in which situation is it better to ascend a character with their Memoria versus level the memoria itself is still being debated. Personally, I'd say if you absolutely don't plan to use a character level the memoria. If you do plan to use the character, go ahead and ascend them with their Memoria and any dupes you get.

Oh, and this is also up for debate but I'd say right now that you shouldn't be stingy with your gems for summoning. Save up for 10 pulls and go ahead and do them. Never do a single pull for characters.

wow spoilers

---

The writing is great and has a lot of lines that the localizers obviously had fun with

Can't wait for the complaints about how its (probably) not a literal 1 : 1 awkward translation

I know for a fact that a lot of it is technically inaccurate. I also know that I reaaaaaally don't care, lol.

---

My run of luck has just ended.

9R-1SR. At least it's a Dupe of someone I've already been awakening.

I think my favorite thing about my Wind team is that it has Sorey, Dezel, and Zaveid. If only it weren't almost exclusively fighting Water-teams, I could field Lailah and go full Zestiria.

Zestiria wasn't the greatest game, but I do miss the characters in combat.

---

I guess this will be the first mono team I build?

---

wow look at this guy over here with all those SSRs of a single type

---

I'd rather have dupes than new characters honestly. I intend to never take Velvet, Lloyd, or SSR Kanata out of the party so I'd rather pump them up. Like I just got Sorey but realistically speaking I will never touch him.

---

eh there's other ways to over level characters. I don't mind being spread out

---

Is there any consistent way to get gels

---

Damn, 4-2-1 drops copper chunk like nobody's business.
