I'll never understand the lack of scrolls. They are so cheap - why not use them? It's so frustrating.
I regretfully am one of those people, though it's not from not wanting to use them - I forget to restock sometimes so I don't have any on hand. If we're close to a kill though I'm usually willing to use one.

I am using 20 of my reds for the brooch when I hit it, but the rest all go to summons. I'm just curious what kind of roll i'm going to get on the brooch though. Hope it's at least relevant to my class.

Came here to post this but looks like it has already been done. It sounds like this will be coming in the near future.
...I totally forgot you could use them for that. How long are these things around for?
Until the 20th july they said on the official forum.

My main and reserve SS units are maxed. Gram is my first and only SSS unit I have.
I got lucky and was able to push Gram to +2 using 2 A units.
Thanks for the advice. That is 2 votes for getting SSS units so I will do that.
Now comes the hard part, which of my SS units do I sacrifice?
My SS Dark Lance simply isn't surviving much of anything in Labyrinth and Myth dungeons. I also have a duplicate SS Dark Arrow Tarq that I need to max out.
Beyond that, I'm not sure what other SS unit I can spare/sacrifice.
SS Dark Lance is still the best tank out there at SS though. I've been saving mine for a long time now.
If you can farm Myth without him, I guess you can let him go? I'm personally glad to still have him around because he has taunt.
Apparently going full out on DPS works too, if you have no tank. I don't know.

I have both Dark Lance and Abyss King and I don't know which one to stick with.
Reading the skill pages, it doesn't seem like Lance has Taunt? I probably keep Abyss King then. I really thought Lance had it.
I might let him go as well then, and just use my Freya.
Edit: NVM That defense buff seems too good to lose right now. My team will really start taking a lot of damage if I lose it. Have to keep Lance around for now. But I think Abyss is better. He has it as well. That party buff.

Well, these are the main units I have at the moment:
-SSS Gram +2
-SS Archer Uk + MAX
-SS Archer Arit + MAX
-SS Abyss King + MAX
-SS Dark Lance + MAX
-SS Dark Archer Tarq + MAX
-SS Queen Robellia + MAX
-SS Archer Veri + MAX
-SS Punisher Roq + MAX
-SS Dark Breath + MAX
-SS Dark Marble Tiehr + MAX
-S Ranran + MAX+3
I'm not sure how Dark Lance is supposed to be good when he keeps getting himself killed for no reason in any combat situation. Of the 3 tanks I have (each with 3k defense), Dark Lance is almost always the first to be knocked out of the fight even with 27k HP. Also, all my tanks have 35% to 40% evasion.
Once or twice would be a fluke, but after a few hundred runs in Labyrinth, Dark Lance is still the first tank to go down in any sudden death scenario. The reason I keep him around is for his group defense buff and his mass debuff but that doesn't seem to be working much.
Abyss King is the one that has taunt. I use him all the time for GB specifically to redirect everything to hit him.
Lance has a stun, defense buff and attack debuff. Between the buffs and debuffs, it shifts the damage taken in your favor. He doesn't have a taunt but he adds a lot of survivability.
Okay, he works better for me but I only have Dark Lance as a tank. He's a beast and is the last one standing in my Laby runs.
But that said, I got nothing to compare it to. I do miss Taunt. Because he's the lone survivor most of the time. IF you got Abyss, he seems better in every way. Seems like an easy call when you put them against another.
@Cybolt. Ah I see. Hmm. Who would you favor then?

I think I have more survivability by subbing Lance with Roq. I've gotten to round 29 of Labyrinth doing exactly that whereas I've only gotten to 26-27 by using Lance.
The ones in bold are the ones I have too but nowhere close to max. Are you me?
Anyway, do you really need all of the archers? I'd probably let one go based on their tier using that site. I guess you'll know best how good they work for you.

Do you have a tanky archer with 45% evasion, 34% accuracy, 35% immunity, 55% crit rate, 33% defense penetration rate, and can hit myth deus for 150k?
Because I love seeing raid bosses lose huge chunks of their HP in a single shot.
I think I can make it work better when we get the lvl bump to 60.
I don't really need all those archers but they are what I've been getting from my combines.
Also, the Orc archers are excellent against Lava Golem whereas Veri and Tarq are useful general purpose archers.
I think you could combine some archers, you've like 3 ?
Combine 2 and keep 1 just to be safe.

I have 4 archers actually. I also have a duplicate Tarq which I can easily sacrifice. Problem is trying to figure out which of my other SS units I can sacrifice.
I'm currently not too happy with my Dark Lance so I might sacrifice him.
Edit : I see
Well since you've already Gram that's an understable choice.

Ugh. How did I miss that. Lol..
Yeah why keep more than 1 tank at all, when you have Gram
I suggest sacrificing the 2 you feel you can do without, which sounds like Dark Lance (Gram replaces him anyway) and the Archer you like the least.
Based on what SSS you get from that you can re-evaluate your team again for your 3rd.

Why do you need more than 5 units? If it's for labyrinth helpers, just dump them. Keep a good general purpose team of 5 (tank, healer, 3 dps) and combine away everything else. Going by your list, that's a minimum of 3 SSS you can get immediately, and possibly up to 5 if your 3 SSS turn out. good and replace the SS you would otherwise hold onto.
The only reason to hold on to an SS is if it's Viri or your only tank. Everything else is for combine
I'd agree. You already have a tank, and you have the priest (although only S).
You could easily start combining some SSS there. You might get some good stuff out of it.
I'm impressed you actually managed to sit it out, its the first thing I would want to do.

Not so much the archer I like least. More like I have a duplicate of Tarq.
See, this was my attitude up until I started combining for SS units and ended up with 4 duplicates. Given my shit luck, getting Gram was already kind of like hitting the local supermarket's lottery.
Have I mentioned that I got 4 SS duplicates in a row? That also happened fairly recently, too. I was on the verge of quitting this game because of that.
Oh, the prices are in gold. I just never bothered getting scrolls.

I know the feeling, but it is what it is. Live by the rng, die by the rng. It's the only way to progress. In any case, with ascension around the corner, shit SSS become good. You've got 5 potential SSS there, which is actually enough to ascend something, or at least get very close.

Thing is, we still don't know when ascension is going to be rolled out to the NA servers.
But we do? Isn't it the 21st?
That's when S2 launches and ascension can be available but whether it will be activate already is not guaranteed. They could have it not enabled at the start and save it for an event thing and then flip the switch.
I wish theyd say one way or another if that 27 pulls = SSS was in or out, at least before the pull 10 get 2 free ends.

Assuming that they do implement ascension with S2, what sort of rewards can we expect to see? I mean, I'm sitting on roughly 400 rubies at the moment and I've just been knocked out of top 5% for arena and top 1% for labyrinth (which should give me another 130 rubies for this week).
They haven't shown any of the new ruby rewards yet for S2.
Rubies (for the most part) are for advancing your SSS. Considering you only have 1 SSS with a ton of SS +Max you shouldn't be worrying about spending rubies at the moment

Even bad SSS are better, or as good as, good SS. You're almost certain to get some good upgrades regardless. Start by combining for 2 SSS and then reevaluate

3pm pdt. Says it in game if you go to the rewards page.

I think Castle Entrance is the end of the line for my no tank Myth run. I might be able to squeeze out the last few levels and unlock Landing Garden , but I'm definitely not beating Myth without a tank or an ascended DPS
Wait 3pm or 3am?
