Yes. Melvina is one of the few healer who can cure poison.
For mage, there is a number of key mage:
5*
-Cheery, 2 mana full screen AOE with knockback which does 10x damage. Cheap and powerful.
-Yuni: runefencer with freezing piercing damage. The line cleaner.
-Velnar: atk boost per wave and atk boost per kill+ 2 mana AOE with daze. The mage nuker.
-Karen: runefencer with a 1 mana single target knockback, good to push bosses.
-Frau/Flaw: Slow down mana slot + sub team buff
4*
-Elemia, 2 mana heal and cure blind. The mage healer and will save you when blind.
-Roxanna: 50% atk buff for 1 mana. Also has a buff when used as sub. The buffer before Musika for raids.
Note that there is a number of other mage which can still be used in a mage team and are by no mean, bad.

damn i bet that takes a lot of micromanaging, i just stick my team of fighters on auto, put the battle speed up with the occasional healing and special on bosses
I've tried so many of these types of games. I played Brave Frontier the most and the longest, although I'm taking a bit of a break from that (after about a year). I recently started Heroes Charge, and I think it's the best of the new batch that has been released in the last 6 or so months. Lots of varied things to do, has guilds, has guild raids, a chat system, great character development system (so getting dupes isn't useless like in BF), equipable armor and weapons, fun PvP (not the throwaway PvP like in BF), etc.
Chain Chronicles is fun and I'll keep playing it, but there's really not a whole lot of different stuff to do. Not yet at least. I'll stick with it because it's fun and I like the mini-stories of everyone.

I'm coming up on my first 500 prysma soon. Is it really stupid to wait for v2 when all I have are 3*s, or should I pull to try and get my team better early?
Velnar has one problem for F2P player
You need 2 Velnars.
Few more mages I like (well I do have them).
5* Aludra is good when you open her mana ability (level 45) which grants +2 mana at the start of battle so the 3 mata attack is no problem or you can use the mana to Cheery or to another mage.
5* Katya with 2 mana you can clear from all enemies (8 x column AoE "Deal moderate damage to all enemies at the vanguard") and unlike Yuni, Katyas attacks are non-elemental (no problems if there are Ice mobs).
But yeah, I would gladly take Cheery

I know for Velnar. Ultimately, mage team are not F2P friendly.
I have Katya and Cheery so Katya's AoE is useless ^^;
I would say, try to get a better team when there is a rate up. Difficulty will increase in v1.
V2 moreover will offer more ways to get prysma and rings.
Gumi, the company that made this game is lying.

In case they take that post down, here is screenshot:
Then why did people get Katarith from Gold chests?

Thanks for making my decision to not spend a single cent more on Chain Chronicle even easier, Gumi!
I wish a more competent company handled this game, as it's a lot of fun. Gumi, of course, had to ruin it with their greed. :/
I'm confused, if people actually did get Katarith during the last raid then what's the problem?
The problem is that for the Coro event, not a single person has shown proof of having a gold chest drop. Not on any forums or social media. This adds further insult since this is the first demon that's actually any use, since Katarith is [more-or-less] only used for Fortune Rings via selling.
However, it seems Gumi knew this, so they removed the gold chest drops for Coro [or, at least, lowered the rate to a ridiculously low level] so people wouldn't essentially get duplicates of an amazing "free" unit.
And now they are lying more. Saying that Gold chest never was thing in raids (not even in Katarith).
This thread in their official pages is good to read. But I dont know how long its there before they wipe the whole forum again.
Nice job insulting the intelligence of your user base, Gumi...
This is sad. Very sad.
I'll try Final Fantasy: Record Keeper and Heavenstrike Rivals and maybe I'll switch CC to one of them later. But in meanwhile I'll continue to play CC and I don't think I'll buy prysma any more.
Good lord, that was a sad thing to read. My faith in Gumi just tanked some more, if it was even possible anymore.
I'm just glad I'm a F2P scum myself, a company that basically just lies to its customers is not a company I want to support.
To me, it sounds like they wanted people to buy fruits and whatnot with prysma to get higher in the raid, because Coro wasn't dropping.

I went to google play and gave 1-☆ to this version which is handled by Gumi.
This is good post in official forums.
Please go to Google play and put one star to this version.

Well I personally will resort to posting comments on the reviews they link on their Facebook. They delete my negative stuff on there, but new players deserve to know what kind of company runs this show.

Also, I emailed the Gumi CEO. They delete his email from facebook, so its probably legit. Haha.

Damn. Nice detective work on these issues and pretty concerning the shady practices.
I believe it did as well. Oh well. It's unfortunate.

do you guys know anyone that has used a cheater to get free prysm and rings in this type of game. I ran into a couple while skimming reddit for chain chronicle info.

what do i do with the 40 level kain? just roll him into someone else. he is pretty useless.
Keep him. In the coveted v2, all the starter guys get 4* versions or something.
Isn't the 4* an all new arcana though? You'd have relevel it.
It's either the dailies, pulling with arcana coins (wouldn't necessarily recommend that), or hitting an event if the reward includes enhancers (like the old targeted knight quests)
I honestly have no idea. Always just read to hold onto them for that reason.
Aparently Spark of Battle and Fruit of Research (both on the sage's tower map) are the best ways to level up characters - even if they are not soldiers/mages.
You can read further here, since the author does a bit of an in-depth analysis.
Thanks. That's what I was afraid of.
I meant getting actual enhancer arcana. I know about Fruits of Research, and I'm currently doing Defense Drill for xp, which is an even better rate. It still sucks, though.
I'm early in the game - just got to the second tavern.mimhave 150 pryzm(?) and 10,000 arcana coins. Looking for some general tips. Should I be buying lots of cards with my coins and using the less good ones to boost my characters? Should I be spending 50 pryzm to get one rare character? Don't want to spend the currency on wrong things
Also, are the stars on the characters bascially how much potential they have? So although I like michidia, she is only 1 star so I should ditch her for better archers?

My bad, I was thinking the enhancer/ap ratio would be good enough, even with the reduced efficiency, but nothing it can do if you want class-specific enhancers.
It must have been the same chance we had to win a Powerball lottery, since nobody knows anyone who had one drop.

I love how people are reacting to this, they are getting refunded for this whole event. This thing probably cost Gumi a lot of money. On the other forums someone managed to get back 300 bucks, they spent on the game due to false advertisement.
As for me, I am now seriously considering just quitting the game, the lack of Coro has dampened my interest in this game. To the point of short of getting a couple of them means I am done.

WUT? I don't understand >.<
Coro had a chance to drop?
I'm guessing Coro had a chance to drop as a "Spoils" chest.

The original complaint from players is that no one got a Coro chest drop, which is in a special colored chest like the Katarith Raid (red and gold) that has a small chance of dropping during Demon Raids. Many of us believe Gumi did something to the rates to either lower them or remove them because no one playing the Demon Raids got a single Coro drop. Which is why there was such outrage over the "No Gold Chest" comment, because we were assuming they were talking about the Coro chest. What Gumi is trying to say now is that the Coro chest isn't the Gold Chest they were talking about earlier on the forum.

Thanks all for the tips a few pages back. I went ahead and leveled Nicky to 11 and stuck her in my subs. I couldn't do the same for Phillip because cost is a bitch.
Anyways I'm plodding through the main quest and just reached chapter 4. I'm just about reaching a point where I can't simply auto battle X2 and drink my coffee anymore. As always RNG is killing me. I'm doing all my pulls in the second tavern in the hopes of getting at the very least a decent 4* knight. On the bright side, I've actually been having luck getting rings on the dailies. Sitting on 49 now and if I sell Phillip I might just be able to grab Deed before she's gone.
I'm still using this crappy 4 colour team though.
How gimped would I be if I swap my mage for Deed and then eventually my soldier for another Knight?
All I hear is "Lindsey this" or "Sulstan that" but my line of thinking is that I already LB'd Maurice once and stuck the Liberation sword on him at the very start because I didn't know better, so should I just build around him? Most of my friends are soldiers but I do have 2 Julianna's in there.
I'm really looking forward to the next raid. The reason I got hooked in the first place was starting the game when there was 6 hours left in it.

While your team will work, you will have issues doing certain content.
I mean you could build around that team, but it is ALWAYS better to have a few 5 star soldiers/knight/mage in your party because it makes things easier.
you should avoid having more than 2 different mana groups in your party because it usually hurts you more than it helps you but if you don't have a choice there is nothing you can do about it.
People talk about Sulstan and lindsey because they always significantly improve any group they are in. Finally, unless you don't have something better Liberation sword isn't anything special outside of the one-time coro raid.

Honestly i would drop Minimo and use Dusty if you want to go the fighter route (his limit break outscales most 3*'s and some 4* and free gold is extra nice) or get Audette if you want to go knight route. Audette you can get a guaranteed drop from one of the quetss, i forget.
A real bloody shame about how Gumi is treating the userbase. Really want to support the game but not if they're going to be like this.
I'll just buy two copies of Yakuza 0 instead haha.
Ah dang, I'm having such an okay time without even equipping her that sword! Guess I'll just wait when it'll become physically impossible for me to carry on, I'm hoping the rest of my team might be able to push me over the edge until V2 arrives.

I just had some discussion yesterday and it seems like you will need that Grief Sword on Lindsey before v2

Yep, dusty is one of the best units (he has higher attack than some LB4 3*) and he is easily LB'd.
Initially you should buy lots of cards so you can unlock the character quests for all the common recruits. But you can just sell the cards as you get them.
I've always been told to keep the starter characters as they'll get new versions when the game updates to version 2.

Thanks, I assume you mean issues with raids? Is that down to the timed nature of the raids and soldiers being quicker? Or are knights in general just worse off?
That's nice to hear about the liberation sword anyway, I don't have anything better but at least it means I'm not losing anything amazing if I get rid of old Maurice. He's kind of the crux of my party at the moment with his "late" stats finally kicking in.
Also I shit you not, in between this and my last post, I just pulled another Minimo and a Madena with my last 100 prysma... I'm going to be stuck with these shams forever.
I guess I don't have the patience and fortitude you guys have to wait it out and horde rings/prysma for better arcana to come around. I kinda just want a 5* of any sort right now to build around so that's why I'm going for Deed. These are the reasons I'm going to end up begging for raid help here and getting stuck later in the main quest!
Oh and thanks for the Dusty advice guys. Would he be considered better than Madena even though she could be LB'd to 50 now? It would definitely help mitigate the cost issues that will come up soon when I get a 5* (It will happen!!).

Keep Madena and, take dusty LB4 him, keep maurice for now bench Minimo for now. If you get lucky during the next Demon raid and you can get a decent mage fior use in a mage team.
Right now Soldiers are heavily favored in the game than knights. To create a decent Knight team requires you spending real money and personally with the way GUMI handles the game, I wouldn't recommend it. All the good knights are locked behind a paywall.
While you could easily get (if you start at release) Lindsey and recently Coro (until gumi revealed their true colors) and eventually Sulstan. Also a lot of people would suggest you save your free Prymas crystal until you get 500 of them to attempt a 10+1 during double rate events.
If you really hate your team, you can always go to another forum where people sometimes give away accounts for free, but will require you to start from scratch.
Raid favour DPS, which warriors don't lack. We even run raids without healing because there is a time limit, so it's better to do more damage than keep people alive over time ( unless you can't reach the last wave )
Also, I guess it's hard to wait when you don't have a 5*. Problem is you arrived at a bad timing. Lindsey is gone, Coro trolled us, Deed is almost done, and next worthy 5* for F2P aren't soon. I mean Sapuras and Sulstan. At the very least, if you plan to use prysma or ticket, wait for gatcha event or rate up as these happens fairly often.
There is a good chance we will get one soon, and I would guess that White Day is the perfect timing for the next one ( since we got Valentine ). JPCC first white day brought Yoshitsugu. The less HP this guy have, the more his stat increase ( 90% atk raise if low HP against boss )
