Well... Nothing to spectacular. However, thanks to that Evil Queen I could finally guilt mine and she instanly got 44%. So I put 6 Mirrors in and now have a 50% on her!
The only problem, I put Defense Boost II on her, but her being guilted (and there being a high reverse modifier on Lady Luck and Divine Rose) she would probably benefit more from the ATB 2 + APP thingy. :/

That Speed Riku also finally gives me a strong single target Speed Medal and I still have one of those at 5*. The Power version I put into the one I already had. Ansem coul potentially find a use somewhere. Cpt. Hook has a "Sleep" effect, so nothing interesting.

TR Donald is a really good medal, too. The TR Donald/Goofy/Sora medals are among the best ST medals in the game currently.

I seriously cannot begin to tell you how amazing my 100% guilted TR Goofy is. It cuts everything to ribbons and allowed me to beat the MoG Adamantite pt. 4 quest, among other things.

Huh, good to know! I do have TR Pete, but that one has been more of a letdown so far.

 

[Famassu]

At this point TR Pete's "relatively-good-multiplier-for-a-1-cost-medal" shtick is starting to be a bit inadequate for some of the higher difficulty tier quests (it can be good as a reliable good-but-not-amazing damage support if guilted and if you have a couple of other heavier hitters that do tons of damage), but it's still a pretty decent medal and has its uses since it's only 1 cost. In long quests you can use its special attack constantly without having to worry about special gauge running out.This, however

it is not.

 

[Munti]

Finally have 3000 jewels again.
With what do I have a better chance to get iKairi (already did 4*3000pull)?:

- 1*3000pull
or
- 2*1500pull
?

Chance is the same, super-slim. The Score Assistance pull at least has a smaller pool of medals to choose from but since multiples of lower-tier medals are more likely to happen the risk is about the same.

For what it's worth, one of my party members managed to get iKairi from the newer all-6-star pull, not that I think the chance of pulling one there is any greater. But at least it comes with an AB2+Lux scrooge medal. Pretty sure you're not guaranteed any epics in that pull, though. Could end up with nothing but trash.

Thanks. Tried with a kairibanner-pull and got nothing.
Weil, then another day

 

[Critical Elk]

I'd lean towards the score assistance deal soley because there's no chance of a six star abu there.

 

[CRS]

Who needs quests for materials when we have Raids?

 

[Psxphile]

Less than 15 minutes before the next mandatory maintenance period. Use up that excess AP while you still can.

 

[CRS]

And don't forget to do the Daily Challenges if you got them! (Jewels, Cids, etc.)

 

[CRS]

I guess we're getting the "Burst" attack from Japan, called "Nova" here.

 

[Psxphile]

I wanted to check my album and figure out what burst nova level I'd be at but I forgot you can't access anything in-game right now, lol

Definitely gonna end up using up some of my mirrors to max out the farmables I still have on hand.

 

[c-murph]

Nova attack sounds better. Japan uses Burst too much.

 

[deanote666]

What exactly is Nova/Burst mode?

 

[Fauve]

What exactly is Nova/Burst mode?

Nova is free AOE attack that's useable once in a mission. It's power is based on how many medals you've guilted.

Guilting one medal gives an increase of 1 level, and max guilting gives an increase of 5 levels to the Nova.

 

[Falk]

Wew, dropping it in the middle of a HSC

 

[Azuran]

Bah, I still needed to farm 600 more medals for the last magic mirror.

WHY

 

[Razmos]

I love them cherry picking features from the JP version but still not giving us Mickey and brooms

 

[Skittles]

So how powerful is the nova? Haven't seen anything about it from japan

 

[CRS]

Unbuffed 200 Burst Score does 30k damage. Not sure how it scales though.

 

[CRS]

Updates galore.

1st: NA/Global was actually noticed!

2nd: Update details. Things of importance: Poison damage cap, higher enemies are more resistance to status effects, and Nova system

3rd: Nova!

 

[Tidd]

2nd: Update details. Things of importance: Poison damage cap, higher enemies are more resistance to status effects, and Nova system

Now it gets even harder to defeat high level enemies. .__.

"Whenever you get a new medal, be sure to unlock or max it's special attack bonus as soon as possible" - Then give us M&Bs.

 

[Psxphile]

Hard to quote specific parts when it's an image.

Timeless River Mickey

but_why?.gif

-added the ability to sort by Proud Mode and standard quests in the story quests.

bruh

guilted medals you sold prior to the update won't be counted towards Nova level

fuck, really hoped this wasn't going to be the case

Now it gets even harder to defeat high level enemies. .__.

Apparently "adjusting for difficulty concerns" meant those Level 200+ enemies were too easy, let's make statuses even harder to take effect.

 

[Falk]

Think the difficulty may have been lowered actually. It was such that poison/paralysis/sleep was too much of the (only, for some people) way to beat hard enemies that the tuning reflected that, turning a lot of harder fights into an RNG fest where you had to do it till poison and sleep (on friend medal) procced 3 turns in a row. Which is NOT fun.

 

[RinBestFate]

There are new story missions as well

 

[Famassu]

Paralyze was already useless enough, now higher lvl enemies have an even higher resistance. Trololol.

 

[creid]

Noticed this morning my level 17 Nova attack would do about 8000 damage, to both a level 25 and level 200+ enemy. Not much of a help, but maybe nice for those situations where a sliver of health is keeping you from 1-turning something.

that's the best part about it. it deals the same amount of damage to an enemy no matter the level (it hits each enemy differently within a range though). means the level 300+ enemies in the hsc can be taken care of more easily. Also guilt those farmables man, that's a ton of damage lying around.(nova benefits from generic strength boosts too)

lovinggg how fast quest rewards scroll through now. great update, looking forward to what events we get tomorrow

edit: wow, you can tear through boards when unlocking them now. they took away the "ok" button after you hit "unlock" so you can just keep hitting unlock. loving how fast we've been getting QOL changes from japan

 

[Sölf]

Okay, I now have 5220 jewels thanks to the various giveaways und so on. Should I buy 2 avatar boards or only 1 and either 2 of the 1500 jewel deals or one of the only 6* jewel deals? The missing 280 I could probably scrap together somehow.

 

[Azuran]

There it is even if the rest was pretty bad.

 

[Lnds500]

10th pull?

Yah. The free jewels was what I needed.

buy 1 board and 2 score assistance. same chance at ikairi but less chance at garbage on other medals.

Just increased my HSC score by 600,000 because of my lvl 95 nova.

 

[Famassu]

The true game changer in this update is the speed of post-quest rewards & avatar board node unlocks.

 

[c-murph]

Congrats. Welcome to the iKairi club. Now get 6 more to guilt. lul. I had to do ten pulls to get her. But on the plus side I also got iTerra.

My Nova is only Lv.38. I need to guilt more.

 

[MiTYH]

I am weak and caved in the 6* pull with those free gems. Notable pulls were:

NEW
- Piglett
- Demyx
- Megaraa
- Master Form Sora

Also got
- Minnie
- KH CoM Black Coat Riku
- KH Leon Ver. A
- KH II Sora Ver B
- KH II Aerith
- Dr. Jumba Jookiba

 

[Skittles]

With my setup i'm at 22.7 mil with a 42% multi on a +26 olympia

Shoutout to the 5 mil download gift for allowing me to buy those avatar boards and get that sweet ATB 2 MAX

 

[Famassu]

Did a 1500 jewel score assistance pull. Got another Xigbar, which together with a couple of earlier Xigbars (one of which was from the 3 pipped AOE pull) puts him one medal away from guilting. Also got Megara. She seems like she might have her uses.

 

[Sölf]

buy 1 board and 2 score assistance. same chance at ikairi but less chance at garbage on other medals.

I did that now:

I am actually quite happy. This will put my Zexion at 3 Pips and my Musketeer Mickey at 5. Rock Titan also looks really powerful when fully upgraded and Megara and Cinderella could prove quite useful. And I finally have a Marluxia.

I also put the ATB II Max into my Jack Skellington. No idea who will get the ATB III though. I will probably hold onto that one for now.

 

[rocketskates]

iVen get on that free crystals pull.

Now I'm just missing Terra :/

 

[Sölf]

Yeah, well, I am totally fucked at the HSC. I can't beat the two Aeroplanes and also can't beat the Black Copter Fleet. I am just dead. 2,3 millio points. Not even in the first 10,000. God, please give me a better one next time. D:

 

[Poltergust]

I just got the Millionaire title.

Um... my current Munny total is at 28M. How did this happen?

EDIT: Oh, and they stealth-released the next batch of story quests.

 

[Psxphile]

Level 89 Nova w/ 1 strength boost = 20k AoE damage. Nice.

I started this morning w/ my level around 40 but it shot up as I starting maxing farmable guilt. Now I'm just working on farmables I sold off and those with low percentages.

I just got the Millionaire title.

Um... my current Munny total is at 28M. How did this happen?

EDIT: Oh, and they stealth-released the next batch of story quests.

I got a bunch of munny-related titles as well. I only have 7 mil currently but one of them was an award for gathering over 20 mil so I assume it's counting overall munny gained since starting the account. Why now, though? Maybe the titles didn't exist before and were just added, or they were glitched and are now fixed.

I've got a little over 5k jewels after completing all story missions and everything else. Thinking I should finally grab an avatar board and at least one score assistance pull. Or I can pull twice and maybe guilt one or more these medals... the pulls end today but the avatar board will last another 4 days so that might be more prudent.

 

[SpeedBeatz]

14.2mil in the HSC, currently 1800th place...eh, good enough.

edit: goddamn, just jumped from 69% to 100% guilt on my Final Form Sora :0

 

[c-murph]

Can you do the trick with the wobble guys again where you beat on them with nothing medals (Olette) and they continue to heal for hours? Isn't that how people got the roxas axel and other person medal back on another score challenge?

 

[CRS]

Not anymore. You only get a set amount of Lux from enemies that can heal.

Did it again after not touching it all week and secured a top 1000 spot. Good enough for me.

 

[Psxphile]

Managed a little over 5 mil in the HSC but I think that's going to be my limit... and I only managed that because the planes battered me down to double digit health but no further and I was able to come back, only to be dropped by the 3 neo-shadows later. And I was only able to take out blue gummi-ship swarm, the others were too much.

About 800 places short of 5000. Jumped up about 2000 in this last push but it just wasn't enough.

 

[Falk]

Same here, short of 5k again.

RIP J&S AB2+APP dream

 

[Skittles]

nice little event, the meow wows actually seem powerful and it's not annoying to evolve them because they all come 5*

 

[AdawgDaFAB]

I managed to squeak by with just over 3m to get 8k place and an APP. I'm happy with that.

Olympia +22 w/ Pooh, Megara, CoM King Mickey, Riku Replica, Antiform Sora + iRiku friend for 70% multiplier. 210 Aeroplanes were my wall. I also couldn't beat the big plane mob in the first room.

All of my saved up jewels went into a bunch of Score banner pulls. No iKairi luck, but a bunch of nice new medals need to be leveled up now. A few are actually not too far off from getting SAB, either (M&B when? :\ ).
