w00t! Trickroom made it into Tier C.

My light team is not the greatest. I can solo the level 50 raid, but get stomped by anything higher. Is soloing the level 50 raid the best strategy for efficiently earning honor?

Man we just barely made it too. We were right in the middle of group C when I went to bed, which once again shows the disadvantage of competing with people in another time zone.

30 YOLO draw tix in your time-limit boxes brehs and brehettes.

Remember to not spend them though! (Unless...)

269 rolls saved up now. Almost there. Saving for a spark is only half the wait. Next is waiting for Mahira to come back. -_-

Mahira got her EMP grid finally, but no Support Skill yet. I hope the wait for it isn't too long and I honestly forgot if Support Skills were released at later times to the grid.

Edit: Ayer too!

You're already there mayne.

Any week of free 10-draws will put you over, hopefully Summer will be it.

I actually just got there myself but now I feel like I want to wait to see who the water dog chara will be for Auld Lang Syne.

All I want to fix in my grids is more Baal Axes for the 4* I'm gambling on

What sadistic mind gives 30 draws in tickets of 1 instead of 3 10-part...KMR pls. Im already on almost 100, sparking is going to take forever,

So...I saved up around 40 tickets and 400K crystals... I'm unsure of when I should use them to spark. It feels like I should just keep hoarding until character up leg fest.

Wait, 400k crystals? I assume you mean 40k crystals, otherwise you'd be able to spark 4x with the 400k you have saved (you need to pull 300 times to earn a free character, so 90k total per spark, subtract whatever pulls you can use with tickets to make this less than 90k).

If it's 400k, that's a lot of patience you have, lol.

You're totes right, added an extra zero.

Haha, figured as much.

Man, if you did have 400k crystals saved though, think of the fun that would be. You'd have to set aside an evening to go through it all, would be amazing.
I would finally be able to get...wait, can Shiva be ticketed? Because if not then that's a loss.

But I couldn't imagine someone saving up for 900 rolls... that's like two years for me.

If they're available in the current gatcha, anything can be ticketed.

Since Shiva was a one-time call summon, I don't believe he's available now (and not sure he'll be back). Therefore, I don't believe he can be ticketed, but I might be missing something.

No. Summons like Bahamut/Lucifer/Alexiel/Agni/Titan and also Shiva,can not be ticketed. Only with a special Siero Ticket, and this takes 150 gold moons to obtain.
 
Hello everyone .Any advice ? I'm looking for a summon , with a dark attribute.
i had one starter , but it's at lv 30 and i don't see how i can uncap it. It seems that uncapping summons is different than the process with characters/weapons . what exactly am i missing ?

(i'm barely in story chapter 11 , btw )

With summons you need dupes or one of those special materials that let you uncap any summon.
I think people use the casino to get those? But I've never been into the casino or played co-op, so someone else would need to explain that stuff.

Summons are uncapped by using duplicate copies or special stones.

Stones for uncapping R and SR summons are available in the casino. Sunlight stones for SSR uncaps require 275 valor badges which are earned in the recurring Unite & Fight events.

Once a month normally. There are a few breaks in the year, like 2-3, so we're due for one real soon-ish.

You want to farm this quest from the Special tab, it's part of a rotating set of showdowns for all the elements. It's just gone past in the rotation, but will be back in a number of days:

The summon will either drop if you are lucky, or you can trade for it from the shop

Ok thanks.
am i right to assume there is a way to know what events are expected to arrive or is it a SUPRISE when it happens ?.

Showdowns are on a rotating schedule. Start of the month, the monts major events are dated. Unite & Fight events are usually announced in advance, like the end of last Unite & Fight they tols us the next would be this month and August.

just go to the front page of gbf.wiki

tfw the winning Guild we're up against only has two people.

Well, good job on the extra Honors, everyone! We're over 15 mil, so extra consolation Valor Badges~

I think we need to set aside a couple of hours to grind during every match if we want to win a match in tier C.

In most guilds, players that can't solo NM will host it and debuff it for stronger players to kill it, but this can be daunting if you are unsure when these stronger players will be online.

As such, setting up a couple of "not-strike times", if you will, will help us concentrate our efforts further, since lower ranked players can host and be sure someone will join.

Considering we need to get 15M crew honors on a daily basis, and that most crews will aim to do the same, 15M is the bare minimum we should try tampoco get. And it's no small feat for us, all things considered.

Long story short, this is no "you guys need to step up your game sheesh" post, but rather an "I'm having trouble putting my gaming time to good use during GW, and am sure some you are, too. Let's try to do something about it" post. We don't even need to move ST for this, just try to log during certain time-frames (also, it's normal to miss these appointments if life gets in the way, we ain't no e-sports pros here, and it's fine that way).

So what say you guys? I can give it my all around 22:00-24:00 jst! (also, does trick room have a discord channel in the gaf discord? I feel bad bothering everyone not-TR with posts like this).

That idea sounds fine with me Gizuko. I'm a bit shaky on the time though as it's also about 8-10 am for me, like Verelios here. I'd maybe need to push mine up a bit when I'm less busy. I'd be cool to discuss it more on Discord. I don't look at the General GAF Discord at all, but if you or Limit made a private channel, I'd hop in. Trick Room doesn't have it's own sub-channel or anything.

We could try to find a time frame where most of us can play, 22-24:00 JST would allow us to do a final push, but in the end I can see why it would be a bad time for a lot of people.

It would be cool if we could find a nice time-frame to try and rush some honors though (although that's what ST is for! But it just doesn't seem to be enough to comfortably get those 15M).

Edit: It's nice reading that, thank you guys. We could look into using Discord a bit, if it'd see some use.
TBH, while all this might seem like I'm dissatisfied with TR's current situation as a chill crew, that's not the case, I joined TR precisely because my schedule doesn't allow me to play a lot during GWs (also, GMT+2 is a really bad time zone to compete in GW). So yeah, I'm not trying to shake things up, I think it's mostly fine as it is, but I wish I could do more for the guild whenever my grid allows - even if this time that's not exactly the case.

Edit2:
We have a Trick Room tag, you can ask kiria to make a room that only people with the tag can enter though iirc.

Just asked, but since there are no crew-specific sub-channels, that is not an option. I'm tagged now, so we could still gauge how many of us are available by means of the tag system!

Meanwhile I'm still here in a corner, flipping out over Yggy finally being playable.

Please, please don't be bad, I'm not sure my delicate heart can take Yggy being bad.

Playable yugu is the ultimate test of strength for the people saving for Mahira.

Because Im pretty sure a loli primal is going to be crazy strong.

I don't even play earth and I'm tempted to do whatever I need to in order to get Yggy.

That said, wouldn't mind Tiamat at some point. At least I could then use her to beat herself to give me more damn omega bolts.

Trick Room is full at the moment but it does look like there's at least one person who isn't playing anymore. PM Freaking Limit on GAF or Discord and check with him.

Um, I would honestly ask you to hold off on that account, and if possible to create another in a couple of days to be honest.

To better explain this, you get a "Pick whatever SSR you want" paid pull based on what's available when you start the game. In a few days / weeks there's gonna be some good draws, so you might wanna mess around with your current account, get in discord, talk to people, figure out how things work, then dump it to re-roll during a time period where ultra limited SSR characters are available.
 
I was a lot more excited about being 5 valor badges away from my first rainbow stone purchase when I thought I already had two in my inventory. Turns out it was just one. Ah well, I guess I will have to hope Cygames feels generous at Christmas time, otherwise I will be waiting a long time to get that third stone for this Agni I drew like a year ago.

A lot of minor buffs and a major buff to Io that was pretty obvious. Some characters like Heles or both Sarunans out, they also needed a buff.
