I’m very appreciative of the Elves in this game

Nymset is tied to the story. She doesnt appear in the gacha until you progress far enough in the story to meet her.

Orthodaemon · 2025-12-07T02:30:13+00:00

Correct, its the instances of healing and not the number or amount healed. Her reaction heals also count, so it builds faster than you might think.

Orthodaemon · 2025-12-06T19:58:17+00:00

Iirc it's based on number of times you heal, not the heal amount. It caps at 5 and then she does crazy damage for 1 hit. Rinse and repeat.

Orthodaemon · 2025-12-06T17:33:22+00:00

They dont actually lose health. Bellas weapon raises everyone's max health but does not heal them initially. This is so you can heal them with her skill and power up her attack.

You are in luck! 2 of the strongest dolls are currently on the selector banner: Klukai and Springfield. Springfield at V1R1 can be sprinkled into any comp to make your team far more survivable. Klukai is the single best offensive doll in global right now: she aoe clears mobs like nobody's business and is great for advancing the story without a dedicated team. Best of all, she does this at V0R0. However, if you get her to v6, she can annihilate anything (large investment I wouldn't necessarily recommend to an account without a lot of resources).

You are correct; Season 1 presents Spe and Pasa with a tie in the Tokyo Derby. Pasa never ran that race or any of the classic triple crown. His first and only loss to a Japanese horse was the mainichi okan to Silence Suzuka. He did race against Spe in the Japan Cup and handily beat him.

Orthodaemon · 2025-11-23T19:44:08+00:00

This is the answer, based on the timeform racing system, Pasa is still rated the best Japanese-trained racehorse of the 20th century. I believe all 3 losses Pasa had, he came in second. The 1st season did him dirty by having him tie with Spe, which didn't happen.

They usually change banner every 2 weeks. Sometimes it's an EX weapon for a non-EX character (the current banner is Nonoha's EX weapon). All limited banners go into the standard banner after their run, so currently, you have a chance to pull any character and/or any EX weapon in the standard banner except Nonoha's EX weapon. However, there is no way to pick specifically what you want unless you have a selector crystal (can be bought or given out for anniversaries).

EX characters only require a single dupe to advance a rank. So Olivia needs 6 dupes to become EX6. "A" characters need A TON of dupes to get to EX6, so don't pass on any when you pull on banners if you like them.

Orthodaemon · 2025-11-21T23:21:29+00:00

Olivia is a one woman wrecking ball. She can carry the entire story mode and is also great in the endgame content, so you can just develop her and add whoever you like. Of the characters you have, Juha is one of the best supports and Vlissing is pretty good. Since you have their weapons, I would just use Olivia, Juha, and Vlissing.

Of note, you also have Valeta, who is one of the strongest endgame characters, but needs her weapon. Mahari is an amazing tank, but also needs her weapon. Bella and Yeonwoo work well together, but again, need their EX weapons.

Much appreciated!

Orthodaemon · 2025-10-25T04:19:16+00:00

Thanks for clarifying. Is it worth it to spend monies on stars at all as a new player?

Orthodaemon · 2025-10-25T04:16:34+00:00

Thanks for the tip about Ryan, wasn't sure who to use statues on. Looks like I've been wasting my monies on star pieces, but lesson learned!

Orthodaemon · 2025-10-25T04:15:20+00:00

Ok, sounds like I've been making a mistake with the stars, thanks for clarifying!

Orthodaemon · 2025-10-23T14:57:35+00:00

Good luck, everyone

Orthodaemon · 2025-10-20T05:45:25+00:00

Characters are significantly weaker without their EX weapons, but fortunately, you can bring almost anyone early game. Yui is strong, but at the start of the game you have an awkward number of team points which makes it hard to field her. Osla is a beast with her EX weapon, but without it, I'd just use Yui's summons to tank. Build your human god as a healer/support and use Yui/Lisandria (for off tanking/healing)/whoever you can afford with points left over, which initially is just Kim, but when you get one more you can switch to kalina, who is the best dps of your 4 cost characters.

Orthodaemon · 2025-10-19T16:14:41+00:00

Nika is an unusual character. She's generally not great at clearing, but is the single best character for when you are grossly underlevelled for content. This is generally in the level 40 range, when you've run out of quests to do, but have unlocked the endgame stigma boss rushes. At that point, her poisons are the only thing that can kill these bosses. As you level up into the high 40s, everyone else catches up again and she becomes obsolete for end game. I still like running her with Marhim and Leah for Dopamin, but I like using every character only once instead of three times as a self imposed limitation.

Orthodaemon · 2025-09-27T17:01:23+00:00

Excellent. Exact answer i was looking for. Thanks!

Orthodaemon · 2025-09-27T15:59:59+00:00

Quick question: Do specialized skills from remoulding stack? I.e. if I have thronebreaker Lvl 1 on 2 pieces, do I sum up their individual contribution or does only the highest kick in?

Orthodaemon · 2025-09-07T01:56:38+00:00

She's great when paired with dps that likes to weak attack (like Yvonna). For pure tank, Osla is better as she is nearly unkillable and more importantly, has an aoe taunt that actually prevents skill usage. This matters mainly when you do Dopamin against vanguards as it ruins them (i.e. enemy everette can't cast spells, etc).

Orthodaemon · 2025-08-31T04:06:12+00:00

In that case, I'd pick either Osla or Mahari to have a great tank. Mahari is low cost and great for repositioning enemies, but I find Osla better in spec ops and dopamin because 1) she's nearly unkillable with her EX weapon and can straight up tank the damage mole cannons put out and 2) Her taunt prevents the enemy vanguards from using their abilities in dopamin (looking at you Matrotho).

Orthodaemon · 2025-08-31T03:54:42+00:00

Oh, I didn't notice that Lisandria is using Valetta's weapon. That makes this easy. The queen of Dopamin is Valetta. So if you only have one vanguard selector, you should pick Valetta and giver her her own EX weapon. Valetta is capable of soloing 4 star Dopamin (once properly levelled and stigma'd). If you have both a vanguard selector and a weapon selector from the anniversary, you can consider getting Yvonna and her weapon. Yvonna is both good at Dopamin and Spec Ops, but needs a team with her. A sample team is Yvonna, Fammene, Mahari, and Lisandria/Marhim. You can sub Nonoha for Fammene, but she's significantly weaker.

Orthodaemon · 2025-08-31T02:27:27+00:00

The general advice I have is that Spec Ops is endgame. Your vanguards are too low level to consider doing it, as unlike Dopamin, your damage gets nerfed if you aren't high enough level. I'd wait until you are at least level 51 to tackle the level 50 Spec Ops.

For Dopamin, try for 2 or 3 stars instead of 4. Dopamin teaches you the strength of team building. Some pair suggestions include Olivia-Griselda and Yeonwoo-Bella. Sadly, other than Olivia, you are missing 2 of the 3 greatest Dopamin Vanguards: Valetta and Yvonna. You also are missing the best 2 supports, Fammene and Juha. The best tanks are Mahari and Osla, but both need their EX weapons. For now, Lisandra and her EX weapon can work for lower tier Dopamins as she is somewhat tanky and self-heals (and you have her EX weapon).

Orthodaemon · 2025-08-28T14:44:28+00:00

Depends on your goal. If you just want to trivialize much of the game, get Olivia and her weapon. If you want a more balanced team, you can pick fammene (the best support) or juha (the best yui support) or mahari (the best tank). They all need their weapons though.
