I don't see this on the play store, do you need a Japanese account to get at the English version?

It's not currently on the English play store. There's just an English option in the Japanese version. You can download Qooapps and download it from there.

Twitter thing never works for me. I click on Twitter Code and some error page always pops up.


I had the same problem, but then I noticed that I could see the code for a very short time before that error page pops up.
I just closed the game, clicked on twitter code again and took a screenshot of the number (you have to be fast), clicked on "back" and then I entered the number.

Edit: Well I did that with the chrome app. That's propably way harder to do with mobile devices.

Welp, went ahead and did it. Spent thirty bucks for the SSR pick and the 10-roll. Didn't do much research, so I just shot from the hip.

I might be thirty dollars down the hole, but with a design that great, how could I say no? She's making the earth island a hell of a lot easier on top of it!

She is good. I know others will tell you that birdman is better but don't listen to them. She is great wind dmg dealer.

I probably missed this somewhere but in my inventory I can see a bunch of weapon equipped yet I can only pick one for my main hero?

And I'm taking it you can't change your leader? It will always be the MC?

small bump because my inventory keeps getting filled with weapons and I can't add more, do I need to upgrade all the time to reduce the amount?

I'm experiencing a bug that makes it impossible to use previously equipped summons as upgrade fodder. They don't appear when trying upgrade a different summon and the menu shows them as equipped even though they actually aren't...


...am I alone?

If that's not the fix, check your profile and see if you have them assigned to one of your elemental slots. I've had that happen recently as well.

I understand your previous post but not the one I'm quoting.

Your main weapon is the one your avatar wields, while the rest are there for the stats. You should check the ultimate guide (http://gbf-english.proboards.com/thread/240/granblue-fantasy-ultimate-guide) to learn more about this, but basically all equipped weapons add to your characters' stats (this includes your avatar's), while your main weapon will depend on your avatar's class.

Can anyone tell me what the +1 stuff is? And how to do it?

+1 increase the target's stats by an amount I don't know.

Some weapons and summons obtained in both the Rupie and premium gacha have a chace to have a +1 attached. Feed those to your best weapons/summons/characters (abovementioned target) to accumulate them - I wouldn't feed them to characters, though, since weapons' stats affect the whole party.
 
Ok, I'm going to have to walk back an earlier post I made where I said that I thought the localization was pretty good. It's not that good. I've run into a lot of grammatical errors such as this:


Also, uncapitalized I's, inappropriately capitalized words... Don't get me wrong, I still enjoy this game regardless and I think the overall prose is fine. But it's pretty obvious that the budget for the translation and proofreading wasn't big at all.

As non native English speaker, I dont mind if I see grammatical errors (If I happen to notice them).

I used 2 1/2 months Google to translate stuff that I would know something I was doing. So to get full translation in JP game that can only be acquired from JP appstore & account creation is only Japanese is absolutely fantastic.

Always so much to do in Granblue. One of the things I really appreciate. If it isn't just the events, there's raids and story and optional bosses and even the obnoxious casino.
 
You have to take into account the fact they're releasing at the same time as the japanese version which means they have a much shorter schedule to work with. All in all I'm pretty happy with the translation.

Dropped the event SSR earth fist from Necalli Extreme (no treasure hunt), for anyone interested. I'm surprised I can clear the extreme fights so easily, considering I've been playing for just over 2 weeks.

Do we lose the stamina if we fail to do extreme stages of SF?
Really too much to do, and the coop is in nutshell, high level just 1 shot the hard bosses.

Is survival mode just RNG? Because there's one dude that gives a bajillion points and every other opponent gives like 2.

I know it's tough, especially these solo events, but as you start off, you're not going to necessarily get everything. My first two events, Seiryu and Slayers, I barely got much, it was only after did momentum pick up as my pools improved.

Also for the brave. Maniac difficulty is not for the newbies, it's like Solo Omega difficulty. As you can see above with the guy that spent 35 lix to clear it.
I started about a week ago and I'm right on the border of failing/barely able to hang in the Hard difficulty of the SF bosses. I've beaten Sagat once, and I've flared out spectacularly on everything else. I was looking forward to Karin, too. :( But just using the 1/2 AP bonus to make sure I can keep Ryu and Rashid, who seem like pretty solid Wind characters.

Running on 30 or so straight losses in 10 man bingo at 10k a bet. Build up to 100k in poker, waste 90k at Bingo, repeat the process.

If I see another One Away where the last ball is one number off of the one I need, I'm going to crack and breaking something. It HAS to be doing it on purpose to taunt me, otherwise it wouldn't happen as often as it does.

Is there a noob friendly GAF crew for this? or do I just search for anyone that will take me in.

Also, what's the consensus of running the app versus on mobile chrome? I have a nexus6P and I think running it in mobile Chrome has a slight edge.

Bingo is a cruel mistress. Broke 1mil for the first time yesterday. Then have spent all day bouncing between 700k and 900k with the 10man room. :(

So how much tougher is Very Hard Sagat compared to Hard?

I've been farming Hard for a while now since that was all I could handle but since leveling a bit I'm able to get through him no problem.

You can get AP refund until you finish the quest for a first time. So try it.

So it seems the most efficient way for me to farm the SFV event is just to do survival on normal and use the multiplier on round 8. If Six shows up its always in the 8th round for me and he's worth 500points or 1000 doubled. It only takes me 2 minutes to get through normal vs the 25min for hard. 1200 points for 10ap is pretty decent. If he doesn't show up and I do hard, it's only worth 700pts for 30ap

Bingo is a cruel mistress. Broke 1mil for the first time yesterday. Then have spent all day bouncing between 700k and 900k with the 10man room. :(

I've decided on just doing 100k a day profit in casino doing poker. Usually takes about 10 min and over 3 or 4 months I'll eventually mlb Anat. It's also a little ridiculous they let you win 77million on one round of bingo yet I got 5 of a kind in poker last night and was still only able to win 50k. It should be just 10 rounds of high low regardless of winnings. That way the better hands can achieve a much higher payout than just 2 pair

Wonder how long they will keep up with the English translation. Some enemy skills and dialogue boxes from the SF event are already untranslated.

I really dig the art and I think this is fun to play, but it's almost like there's too much content to keep up with. I'm gonna keep chipping away at it, but I can't shake the feeling that I should drop it now before I get left behind. Behind of what, I'm not sure exactly.

So what's the +___ number on weapon and summon portraits? I thought it was additional levels to a skill but that doesn't seem to be the case.

I get that feeling of being left behind too, but keep in mind that, as a gacha game, every now and then they launch some new shiny and the meta shifts. Granblue's events seem to come back (not often, though), so there's that too.

Do keep in mind, though, that magna weapons are fairly good and the best way to raise your stats (weapons>characters>summons) unless you are whaling heavily or get lucky (lol) and pull the same SSR 4 times, being able to MLB it's weapon. Since magnas are always available, this means you can always remain competitive, and you will have to face the same difficulty curve most of the players follow, no matter when you start playing - unless you have Yoda or a wind team, in which case you do the same grind, but have an easier time.

This is one of the reasons I really like GBF.
Although I have Yoda.

If you feed them to another, it will add 5 attack and 1hp to the monster. So you can get your best weapons/summons to +99 over time for 495attack and 99hps

I seem to be only getting around 10 points for each round on normal. Ran into Sioux(?) in the last round and he took me out pretty quickly. Was able to handle all the normal quests pretty easily except for this.
 
I'm mostly ignoring my R characters, even though I don't have a single SSR. Is that wrong, are some R characters usable?
Starting out, use full mono element team depending on counter.
Do a bunch of story mode while they're 1/2 AP right now, and just swap your team depending on stage.
 
I really wish I knew what I was doing in this game.

Meanwhile I'll just spam these SF event quests because it's cool as fuck seeing SF characters in this.

When you finish a raid and get the renown/SR bonus, what are those? Or how do you use them?

In the shop, under the emblem tab. Best use for them is a SSR magna weapon for 5000 points. You can earn a total of 3000 a week, 2000normal then 500 bonus for both R and SR characters alive at the end of a fight. You can track how much you have on the home screen if you scroll down

Thanks, I've seen the totals but I had no idea what/how to use them.
