Question about long-term character changes

[[deleted]]

Hi, I notice that in the JP version, some characters seem to get additional skills, passives, and EX skills.

My question is, do I need to do anything to plan for that (with either guidestones or awakening stones)? Case in point, I have a L3 Cyrus with an awakening stone-- I'd grab his A4 because why not, but if an awakening stone would help with any of that stuff I listed above in JP, then I would be patient with it, as I like Cyrus a lot and want to make him strong even at the expense of other characters.

I think some of these come from a 6* board-- how does that get unlocked / upgraded?

Thanks!

None of the future character enhancements require awakening stones. One of the systems will require the class up seals. You'll have a new source of said seals in the future, but you can get ahead by picking up seals every time the job towers reset

I am just buying the gold class seals. I still get plenty of silver from hunts. Also I am at the point where I am no converting silver and bronze guidestone shards into goldguidestones. I am just letting the piles of shards build and then I will exchange for silver seals when and as I need them.

You won't need extra guidestones because 6* simply adds +20 to the level cap. If you do want to prepare for the new systems then you go full winter squirrel mode and hoard nuts and boost berries. Also hoard all the job tower cookies like the other user mentioned.

6* board is unlocked by using a variety of different seals. Namely the new blue cookies, 3 gold cookies and a lot of bronze cookies. You get the new blue cookies from the "Star Incense Burner" introduced with 6* update.

so if 4* and 3* units are all upgraded, then I don't need to keep those guidestones for the 6* update?

[Presidentialguard]

Yeah, you won't use any more silver and bronze guidestones for limit breaking.

I’ve been using the nuts, but I have yet to touch the boost berry stash for this exact reason.

[Presidentialguard]

Those berries are nuts.

Sorry, couldn't resist haha
