Quick question: does the game notify when you're able to change a character's job? So I don't have to keep checking each one out.
 
yes there will be a typical notification on the tavern icon, it's a bit annoying tbh cause it keeps reminding me i can upgrade the job for a character i don't want to

Cool, thx! Yep, I guess they should get rid of it once you check it out, even if you don't upgrade.

When do i start getting these oh so useful level 3 rewards? Er the 3rd thing to job upgrade.
Tomorrow... in the hunting grounds.
You could get them elsewhere, but it's probably more worth it to get them this way.

Don't worry about them until Ch 10.
 
So far I haven't noticed much advantage to unlocking subsequent jobs. You get like 1 extra ability, but that's it. It doesnt' seem like the later jobs are inherently more powerful than the earlier jobs though, unless I'm missing something.

Rolling through chapter 12 now. Can't wait till I get Metal Zone level 3.

Also I have like 14 energy and 90k gold. Should I be using them? I'm just banking them right now.

It depends on the character but later jobs generally have different skills that allow you to customise the character, either specialising in what theyre good at, making up for deficiences, etc. It can also change their weapon so for this mission you might want to use them as a sword guy for the next a spear guy etc. Its also been mentioned that later jobs have better stat spreads, though I dont have two jobs at the same level so cant verify. Finally, as you mentioned, you unlock extra ability slots which starts to be really useful when you get to the later maps/levels.

Great question, I've seen like two and I'm on level 6. Only have one job upgrade, and that was like the freebie

Here's a list of where to find the majority of items in the game, for those that drop in them, hunting grounds are by far the most efficient way to get them

Depends do you want to roll new characters or hold onto it to unlock new jobs for your current ones.

Oh okay I was kinda getting worr-
wait shoot im on chapter 10 WELP

Chapter 12 here and still need more items for job unlocks. Spending all my stamina on hunting grounds the next few days.

Their stats are slightly better for the most part from what I've seen but they also give you the extra skill slots, which I figure will play a huge part later on in the game.

As of now there seems no point in saving your energy so go ahead and spend it especially if your team isn't all adventurers by now.

For gold you should be saving it for job changes but you could spend a few if you want to test your luck in getting one of the three new SS char.
 
got a bomborg. the little mob that leaves those nice little trails of bombs around the area. of course, its first skill is disarm bomb. it's 2nd and last skill is to lay bombs in the field.

icing on cake? they unlock at lv 35 and 65 respectively. so you have to drag a useless magic based mob to lvl 65 before it can use its main attraction.

the true dark souls starts here,

7th reroll was Pahrl (Archer with heal?) And Lizard mage both A.

I was gonna stop if I got S or waifu but apparently it is like 6/5% for S SS so onto roll 8. I hope they didn't tweak roll rates after launch :(

Sounds like maybe I should have kept the ice mage :(

RIP Eileen and stone bow guy. Thought about keeping but dead weight until lvl65 is too much for me even if lullaby could be nice. Roll 9 away!

Finally got first S on roll 9, but it is Pupropu who can't even be waifu. Roll 10 ahoy!

Metupi all blinged up for job number three, first skill gives +2 seconds to move which is nice. I assume any skill bonus with "Equip" is a set bonus?

I believe "Equip" skills are just passive effects, meaning they are always active when "equipped" (even if they are automatically equipped because you are using a job that naturally learns it), rather than having to activate during a pincer attack.

Damn Metal Zone 3 costing 20 energy. Seems barely worth it unless it's a metal king.

Especially considering that the XP rewards don't even go up. You're still getting the same XP as the first metal zone basically but just paying way more energy for it.

Yeah, it's somewhat annoying early on.

King once a day doesn't help either when it goes up at like 3AM.

Got enough energy to do a recruit and it was a gold letter. I was hyped as hell and then...Palpa.

Sadly its still the fastest way to level up regardless of its cost.
 
apparently you can grind 1-5 for skill boost. the maximum skill bost you can get per level is 0.2% so....its one of the cheapest stamina/boost %

if you want to avoid dupes you need 100% skill boost.

get to grinding!

30 spins (15 rerolls) and two S so far. Struggle is real.

'Indefensibly bad' and 'Stop drop and reroll' for each.

My consecutive login bonus reset after 11 days, even though I logged in yesterday and today. Is there some secret <24h timer rather than checking a date?

it reset 50 minutes ago, if you didn't log in between 51 min ago and 24 hours and 51 min ago then you missed a day.

For example if you logged in at 6:30pm central time on the 19th and then didn't log in until 7:30pm central today you missed a day.

Are you talking about the login bonus? Only the consecutive one goes on forever

This will probably answer your questions about it: http://www.terrabattlex.com/guides/login_bonus

EDIT: Aw man I got beat to it!

Really? I got energy Saturday

Seems like I was talking about Overall login bonus, getting used to it so asked if it was not a bug or an issue. Thanks.

Still playing and enjoying the game here. Haven't gotten tired of it ... hahahaha.

At least I have one SS character. But overall I feel stronger. Just grinding for the job stuff is hard, so I just play the game and see what I get. I wonder when I'm gonna hit that wall...
