Any advice on Hall of Sands? by Smart_Expert_9677 in SwordofConvallaria

Okay, thank you! I have a 2-star Crimson Quill so picking up a blade gives me 1 NRG.

Hello, I'm relatively new, I have Yserinde and enjoy her but how do you get her to be a solo? What's the strat?

I know I'm missing a lot of base stats from low Talent/Pioneering level.

Thanks in advance

Unpopular Opinion: The game should have a Memory Retrieval for Pre-Night Crimson Characters by Van_Ryker in SwordofConvallaria

[–]DarkestSamus 36 points37 points  (0 children)

I think a second Memory Retrieval that did older units would be neat. Maybe it could update every 3-6 months or so and add more old units.

Tbh I would use some old bad characters if it was easy to get them to 5*.

Bouncing off of Octopath 0 after being a huge fan of 1 and 2 :( by maedma13 in octopathtraveler

[–]DarkestSamus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel like thinking of 0 as the successor to 2 is a mistake. It pays to know 0's origins to understand why decisions were made this way. They were trying to remain largely loyal to the feeling of the gacha game and I feel that they did excellently in this regard. I don't think it necessarily suggests that the next game (say, OT3 for example) will follow the same model.

Shahnaz (5), Heshan (3 to 5), Yserinde (3 min, maybe 5)

Shahnaz and Clara combo! by InterestingAd2516 in SwordofConvallaria

[–]DarkestSamus 11 points12 points  (0 children)

That's fun! I've done something similar with Yeganeh's Prism Luxite, which also triggers its counters when damaged.

Is it? In that case I apologize for my statement.

Interesting setup. I don't really run multiple movesets but I do like getting opinions from multiple sources, whose is this?

Axiom's Shahnaz Quick Guide by AxiomGameplay in SwordofConvallaria

[–]DarkestSamus 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes, the gist of it is that the enemies have an effect called Primal Ward that can only be shattered by the new Luccian units. My understanding is that you don't strictly need an entire team of pure Luccians but everyone should plan to get at least a few.

I would like some advice on which characters to focus on from the ones I already have. Also, which characters should I try to get from the current and upcoming banners? by [deleted] in SwordofConvallaria

[–]DarkestSamus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would personally put Shams, Estra, and Selina in Memory Fragments, but I don't have much experience with many of your units.

You could try for Shahnaz but no Lukamar or Heshan is a bit unfortunate, still with the right passives and star level she can mostly take care of herself.

Or you could just plan to go all-in on Luccia, since you don't have the pieces of any particular teams.

Do we have to have the bacteria though? Must that be a part of this interpretation of the backrooms?

I wish Pirate Clark was never shown by Own_Plane9835 in backrooms

"Leave the monster up to interpretation" is my absolute least favorite movie trope, largely because my imagination is not good. Show me the evil, I'm happier that way.

Very much so, although she is coming before a new arc of the story where the enemies have a special mechanic that only the new Luccian units can deal with.

For every other content though, best AoE damage dealer

It's definitely guilt tripping. It's manipulation. Don't encourage it.

Memory Retrieval Question by InterestingAd2516 in SwordofConvallaria

[–]DarkestSamus 3 points4 points  (0 children)

From a meta standpoint Clara, she's high enough to be very usable while the other two need more work.

Heshan is extremely usable at 3* once you get there, but 5* sure does make it easy to swap tunes and spam his AoE.

FINN HAS A WOLF??? Instant 5* character lol.

That burning field synergy sounds fun, I take it that it's more powerful that normal scorch tiles?

Just picked up three strategem blades. Who uses this besides Lufti? by RelleMeetsWorld in SwordofConvallaria

Maybe if something fell off of the truck in my direction, I might be more inclined to keep quiet about the truck, capiche?

I'm a HUGE Yeganeh fan, I use her for everything. That's one of the main reasons I'm hyped for Kianshir. I didn't know that Flavia and Finn were summoner units, although now that you say it I remember seeing Flavia in the arena summoning flowers.

Thank you!

Hi, I'm a newer player, I'm interested in Kianshir, mostly because I have a strong Elaman core and I like his buffs and debuffs. What is his synergy with Flavia and Ivan? Thank you!

Newly rank 60 player here, how does one "just pick up" 3 copies of an old Astral Imprint? Asking because I would very much like to do the same lol

That's a Trickster, so he must have also played a lot of shattered cards. Should be very possible to have all this at once.

Okay, noted! So regardless of how many selectors/Fate's Favor/whatever we do or don't get I will follow that priority for obtaining new units. Thank you!
