I was inspired by both of your stories and used my last 5 energy to pull Gatz.

I was sitting on 33 energy and pulled Metupi (repeat). :/
Maybe it needs to be my last 5 energy.

Well, you get energy from the consecutive login bonuses. I worked it out to I think 4.75 energy / week. So the remaining 4 energy wouldn't be useless.
FWIW, I'm super happy with Gatz. Treasure Hunter is literally the only thing I'm missing that I couldn't live without.

When does Hunting Zone 3 open up again?
Because at this rate, I'm going to have to run Hunting Zone 2 about 52 times for all the money I need, assuming it drops an average of 4,000 coins.

So I have Lunaken at level 35 (second job), Ethereal at 40, and recently rolled my first named archer (Pahrl), but I don't have room for any of them on my team!
I used to have teams specialized for different types of battles, like mostly spearmen for battles against swordsmen, but I've done the last several chapters with my main team, uncaring of what types of enemies I'll encounter. I'm now in the middle of chapter 16, and I'm wondering if I really need to work on leveling up other characters at all.
My team now:
Basically, I'm thinking that unless I roll a fire or ice archer/swordsman/spearman, I don't have much reason two remove anyone from my main team. That's also making it hard to justify getting new jobs for my other characters like Nakupi, Djugan, Korin, Ka'pori, Sh'berdan, or Ra'prow. It's too bad too because I like all those dudes!

But you don't get them 1 at a time, you get either 2 or 3...which add up to 5. So either just go for the 30 energy one or buy 1 extra energy...which I'm gonna pass on for now, haha.
Hunting Zone 3 gives ~8 k coins and the coin creeps will be available on weekends. HZ3 itself opens up after chapter 18, I think.

I'd drop Ba'gunar and Bahamut from that team and add Korin immediately (job3 +20% frequency to sword users, job1 +20% def to sword users) and another spear guy to prepare myself better for chapter 18 (which is mostly all sword enemies)

I'll make that my second squad. I like Ba'gunar and Bahamut because more often than not, their skill attacks are what's taking out enemies.
EDIT: Got 3 energy as a login bonus, and pulled Zerro. Second SS class character!

I think i broke a new record

That's really good for using just 4 characters. I barely broke ~300,000 once (or got extremely close), but that required having all 6 with me.
His other characters is under the metal king.
cpp_is_king

Yea I actually have 6 characters there. I think I could have gotten a bit more exp if I had been careful on the final level and gotten the metal king in the exp chain so I got a +30% bonus on him. Still though, 300k is really good. Will be hard to beat that.
Necromanti
Member
Oh, whoops! But yeah, the patch gave me a few runs where I got about ~280-290k semi-consistently, but it's still mostly RNG depending on what enemies I get to pop up. (And got ~245k on the run right after that golden run). It helps when I get a lot of those annoying runners sandwiched in between my units and rack up the XP bonuses from killing them all in one turn.

Nah he's talking about the

New event's up! It's for farming tears as some of us were speculating

Yea just got 5 tears from running it once.

What kind of battle?
Enemies with slime/bomb trails and mages who run off that cast the time debuff.
Edit: MZ4/5 just take 1 metal ticket. This is like...super easy mode now

I'm running so low on energy. But it's only like chapter 7. Is this the game's micro transaction of choice?
Okay, I tried the new Arena Hunting Event.
They run away after one turn and two of them are usually enemies that leave bombs or trails of goo or cast that reduce time thing on your guys. There's four rounds of three enemies. The trails are respectable damage, I think it's 500 per drag so they're a bit more of a nuisance then the Hunting Zone ones.
I got 4 - 5 drops.
NOT ALL OF THEM TEARS. Elemental rings are in the rotation too.
This is 20 energy. I guess this is for low level folks who haven't unlocked the later hunting zones yet but would really like tears.

Ehhhhh this event has nothing for me; particles would be great though.
Hunting Zones would be great if I wasn't so fixated on 100%ing the monsters; I don't have enough good units worth leveling.

You usually have enough max stamina to get through half a chapter and stamina regenerates fast enough to get through atleast one chapter each day.
Things might seem tough when you start farming for job changing materials and have bad luck, but otherwise the stamina they give you seems fair enough and bearable without feeling compelled to spend money.

The rate of tears is still a bit higher here than from HZ3. It's still not too common to get 4+ tears in an HZ3, and i just got 5 and 6.
Yeah, but I think if you kill the special one, you're guaranteed a tear at least. HZ3, it's possible to get 5 or 6 rares but I've also gotten 35 common drops and runs with nothing but particles as the rares too.

Hmmm, we can do Tear hunting? Welp. Time to step my upgrade game up, although most of my mains have their second jobs already.
Yeah, it seems like the Tear Hoarders (or whatever they were called) that flee after 1 turn are guaranteed to drop a tear. The various bomb type enemies have a chance to drop items as well, but probably nothing good (I got rings). And the boss seems to drop animatons. Not sure if he drops other items as well.
All around not a bad event if you need a few tears to level up a few jobs, and fairly easy to pull off. I just hope in the future we get an event that has guaranteed drops of ores.

Yeah, I found the boss during my second run and it dropped a dark matter.

Poor Grace/Bahl.
Actually used this event to get her job2/3 to lvl 60. Shes the only character I have that has Terabow and will probably be my main damage dealer if I roll with Manmer/Pahrl bow buffs.
HawthorneKitty
Sgt. 2nd Class in the Creep Battalion, Waifu Wars
It's poor Bahl then... or do you not have her?
HawthorneKitty
Sgt. 2nd Class in the Creep Battalion, Waifu Wars
Um, I'm not.
I found out Palpa levels slower than a typical S class character. They really don't want anyone to use her in this game lol.
Anyway, that event dungeon for tears is pretty nice. I hope they do one for particles soon.

Oh, I thought you meant he'd stop using Grace/Bahl once he had better characters leveled up.

Does anyone know if the boss in Gormandizer Hunt always appears at a set time plus a random chance, like in metal zone? I've just done 3 runs, and I found the boss in all three of them, whereas this morning I only saw it once in 5 attempts.
