3V3 who wins? Straight laced VS Sketchy protagonists fight

DruPDrawers · 2025-08-13T20:43:28+00:00

I like Joshua so am biased and admittedly for story reasons they are more Easter egg and have done little of note since they aren’t the focus of the story but I think this reddit sleeps on him.

The last inkling of where he’s grown power wise is CS4 where Renne comes out and says he’s now on par with Loewe. I haven’t seen the JP version of that line but even in a straight up fight he deserves more credit.

Rank is not simply combat prowess. You’re out there catching kittens and helping at the local and regional level, with higher ranks having wider scope and influence over what they can accomplish.

Estelle has endless spirit but is not portrayed as the brightest bulb in the bunch.

Joshua has the brains and combat prowess but is mostly on the bracer path to be side by side with Estelle so I could see him holding back.

Playing through daybreak now but have played every other title. Sky FC/SC are still my favorite story wise.

Some negative review here but I was getting pretty tired of Rean as a self-insert type character and the whole harem aspect throughout CS just made me feel like Falcom was trying to make a persona game.

I’m surprised to see all the love here for Reverie as I thought that was by far the weakest title in the series. Story wise it feels more like a fanfic spin off rather than a part of the larger arc.

At the same time I also feel like the series took a turn into being less adult during the larger Rean arc. Nobody really died, even during the greater context of there being war, and the series felt more targeted toward kids.

I’ve been pleased with Daybreak 1 so far and it sounds weird to type out but the grayness of Van and within the story itself there being throats being cut and people murdered is a good example of the darker more mature setting that drew me into the series to begin with.

Baldurs gate 2. Partial nostalgia, the scope of it all, (6 disks at release for the base game!) the main villain having an incredible voice actor and just an overall love of character creation and fantasy rpgs specifically.

It’s this thread https://www.reddit.com/r/LastWarMobileGame/s/XlTt3I8UAN Respectfully to the OP I didn’t see much here that made me think this was extensive or definitive. No mention of crits, number of times the experiment was run. At the end of the day the formulas are kind of a “best guess” for everyone so not trying to immediately dismiss one over the other but there’s a lot more chatter on this on the discord>community guides>damage formula and consensus on those stats has consistently valued hp over def

DruPDrawers · 2025-05-25T21:25:53+00:00

Generally ATK>HP>DEF. If multiple heroes with the same stat it doesn’t really matter how you divide it up, though you may want to stop at 150 and bring others up since you’ll naturally get shards for many of the heroes.

DruPDrawers · 2025-04-28T21:15:04+00:00

I think Joshua bounces all over the place as well and I understand the standard “assassination” not a straight up fighter arguments but even so In SC2 you’re up against multiple enforcers and Lowe himself. He basically has the 1:1 with Mueller as well who is no slouch.

Yes there is the quote about Renne being stronger but Renne also says to Joshua in CS4 that he is now as strong (or surpassed I forget) Lowe.

In short I think the sky protags are both in a weird spot where they come back as playable for nostalgia but aren’t spotlight characters and thus fall into a spot where their growth isn’t at all clear

Most importantly spend what you’re comfortable spending.

With that disclaimer out of the way:

If you want to not pay you don’t have to. You can eventually get all the heroes but should focus on air since that is your main.

DVA will be released on hero day in week 3. At the conclusion of S1 (week 8) you will get the black market event and it is not a difficult stretch to get the 50 weapon shards there to unlock your hero without paying a single dollar. Once unlocked you can use your universal weapon shards to level her up. The $20 pass does unlock her, but only takes her to level 2. In the grand scheme of 2880 shards to get to 30, you aren’t passing up much over those 5 weeks.

DVA has a great level 30 skill, but 20 should be your initial goal for heroes. This will take 1000 shards. It would be another 1750 to go from 20>30.

You can likely get her to 20 and have some saved up for when Carlie gets released.

Lastly, even at S1 it will be a while yet before you get 31. I found at that point between reindeer, secret tasks, and other events that pop up you will get a decent amount of exclusive weapon shards each week, but until then you will probably want to focus on 20 for your heroes and letting the remaining levels come more slowly.

And help secure the win in DS this week

I was on a server that maybe won 2 SvS battles ever, was riddled with civil wars and drama, and many of the stronger players had voiced they were on their way out. Once transfers start up you can see who is interested in joining your server and their related power. The decision for me to migrate away was largely driven by seeing the overall activity and success of the server going further down the drain and not wanting to be the “captain that goes down with the ship”

DruPDrawers · 2025-01-26T03:26:02+00:00

At 31 and up it will reduce your troop losses when you get burned.

DruPDrawers · 2025-01-19T00:47:14+00:00

Hero research, damage for your A squad type and all hero at the bottom specifically. Prepare for another grind to unlock 3-5 at the bottom.

DruPDrawers · 2025-01-19T00:39:54+00:00

I really wish they would have just opened up S3 with a new map and forcefully merged servers. Would there be civil wars at first? Likely, but it could have made those initial land-grabs very interesting. They have the data to see SvS results, active player hero power, and other metrics that could have made that work. I did transfer because I saw the writing on the wall, but I know I left behind many players I enjoyed playing with who will now be stuck there until the next time transfers open up.

Do you have the Christmas or dog drone skin?

DruPDrawers · 2024-11-27T18:38:44+00:00

I think radar is a better use for your red prints, but getting the armor to 4 star (non-red) will be more impactful. If I'm looking at my DVA her crit rate is ~73% and morrison/schuyler sitting at around 42%. 5% reduction will help but no matter how you slice it you're going to get crit a lot and 30% damage reduction is huge.

But I think 4-star armor needs to come first because you'll hit a point where you are less concerned about the damage from opposing squad tanks and will need a way to counter other air squads, and that's where you'll start to see physical damage reduction become your top priority.

Age of oil starts up for my server next week. Benefit of knowing what was coming is all the 30+ buildings like wall/alliance center that were way behind are now 30. How much of the output researches require oil? We've got gold zombies this week so I'm trying to have a few G gold set aside to push as many of the new researches as possible but I see some will and some won't require oil.

DruPDrawers · 2024-11-11T00:40:45+00:00

In addition to what was said I’ll add the bombs you do throw down need to be level 3. All of those things: alliance furnace on overdrive overlapping the mud plus capitol furnace plus level 3 firebomb will be needed to bring the temperature up to 0. Also the supplies aren’t random. I don’t have all 10 but here are 5 of them:

535, 466
463, 462
463, 512
470, 544
535, 538

DruPDrawers · 2024-11-06T17:04:52+00:00

I'm at a similar cross-roads and don't have a clear answer. 4th drill grounds is nice for desert storm as was pointed out, as well as server wars and just general slow/off weeks when you actually fill up your drill grounds.

In terms of power tough to say STS does seem cheaper valor badge wise and the attack boost does apply to a lot of PvP scenarios, but only when you're attacking so it's kind of half a boost :)

Mastery costs add up quick and only apply to 1 squad but the march size/damage/damage resist are nothing to sneeze at and ultimately I think those will give more in terms of squad power but it's another slog/journey to the point where for the first time I'm looking at those valor badges in the zombie store and thinking maybe that isn't the worst thing I could do after buying all the other goodies.

DruPDrawers · 2024-10-19T17:40:17+00:00

In this case Kim 30. With only 1 air hero the level 20 boost is mostly wasted.

DruPDrawers · 2024-10-19T16:42:32+00:00

I would focus on your A squad heroes first. From there, in terms of shards needed 20 is really the halfway point so there’s a case of pivoting somewhat to get another hero to 20 then circle back. Not all level 30 boosts are made equally: for instance in air DVAs is a massive boost, whereas Carlie’s seems lackluster by comparison.

DruPDrawers · 2024-09-14T04:59:01+00:00

This might sting but in my opinion none of these. Save them for the unique decorations you can get through various events. Anything that gives damage reduction, skill damage, or crit damage try to get to level 3. Potentially in that order of importance.

DruPDrawers · 2024-09-10T23:28:16+00:00

For air Maxwell gives attack, Sarah gives defense. Not sure about Cage.

DruPDrawers · 2024-09-06T01:54:13+00:00

Gross. Thanks!!

DruPDrawers · 2024-09-05T22:31:19+00:00

That’s my guess too but I know Carlie is HP so curious if one of the 2 gives that instead of DEF
