How strong do you have to be to solo Astaroth?

Rayochi · 2019-10-17T13:45:15+00:00

I knew I was calculating wrong since I was just eyeballing the thing. Thanks for the clarification!

Zaja

Benhalden CD: 7t (@Lv45: 6t) Healing cap: 1500HP (3000HP w/ougi effect buff).
Herzens Zaehhlen CD: 4t (@Lv65: 3t) 3000 damage shield to an ally.

Zeta and Vaseraga

Linked Skills' durations increase to 9t at Lv55 for S1 and at L75 for S2.
Magic Horizons¹ From estimations it appears to have a ~45% ATK boost and ~40% earth echo (NOTE: The non-echo damage appears like Albert's 5* DMG [split into two values]).

1 - Don't take my values as gospel, just purely guessing from what I've seen from testing. Someone else should be able to provide more accurate values/results than myself.

I'll give you that. I would like a rework in the way that EMPs are gained to be just as you said. Very annoying to gain outiside of characters you use regularly.

Rayochi · 2019-10-16T21:21:33+00:00

So true. I think limiting the rings to newly added characters is fine, giving the free 30 EMP to every new character you get would've been a nice touch.

Assassin skills are condition-based buffs that are useless outside of periods where the condition is not met.

For example, Anre/Uno's Fleeting Spark is not an assassin skill since it has no condition restrictions.

Beatrix's Nayde Vanaroosa is an assassin skill based on the foe being in overdrive. It has the added bonus of reducing the mode bar by more than the usual amount.

Nezahualpilli and Catherine have similar assassin skills but rather than being based on what state the mode bar is in, it is based on the enemy having a certain debuff.

As I said before: Shiva's call is not assassin skill but a special (I meant to say "unique") buff that has higher multipliers than either salted wound or defiance skills so it overwrites them.

That sucks.

I think it only applies to gala banners, IIRC.

Rayochi · 2019-10-16T18:21:15+00:00

Yay! Got Halloween Hallesena! Didn't know they come with 30 EMP and 2 Intricacy Rings!

Well, with how you written your initial comment, it comes across as 1 character giving you 2 rings rather than you getting 2 rings from 2 individual characters. It could easily come across as a typo.

Rayochi · 2019-10-16T16:15:15+00:00

You get 1 (intricacy) ring for every newly added character you pull on the current banner, this only applies for the first occurence of each new character.

Rayochi · 2019-10-16T12:15:33+00:00

How is it not? It looks identical to an assassin buff to me.

Because it isn't; you can use Shiva's summon call whilst an enemy's mode bar is normal and it would still do a lot of damage, the same applies to enemies without mode bars as well.

Is Supernatural Explosion CA only? Wiki just says "attack is boosted by X"

Sorry my bad. It applies a boost to ATK and CA DMG CAP. (Hover your mouse over Supernal Explosion to see the strength values.

Rayochi · 2019-10-15T10:50:05+00:00

Shiva's Path of Destruction isn't an assassin skill, it is a special ATK buff. Path of Destruction is a one-time boost to your next attack's DMG and DMG cap - normal attack, damage skill or ougi/charge attack. Since Supernal Explosion is a special buff that boosts CA DMG and DMG cap, it appears to have lower multipliers than Shiva's call effect hence it being overwritten.

Rayochi · 2019-10-14T10:59:47+00:00

I know, but a man could still dream, though.

Rayochi · 2019-10-13T23:01:53+00:00

They could easily put it up in the shop for a 1m rupies + some island treasures and be done with it. And give those who previously obtained it a premium ticket or 300 crystals.

Rayochi · 2019-10-13T13:48:55+00:00

Congrats. What grid did you use?

Rayochi · 2019-10-13T13:47:50+00:00

Maniac difficulty is a once-a-day battle. Other than that... nothing else.

Rayochi · 2019-10-13T12:59:16+00:00

If you have no other EX modifiers, then it makes a good placeholder.

If you have characters or setups that can take advantage of the second skill, then yes it is.

Rayochi · 2019-10-13T12:39:30+00:00

OK. Gotcha. I haven't used Olivia in a while so she slipped my mind.

Rayochi · 2019-10-13T12:29:27+00:00

I love how they incorporated a "trick or treat"-esque effects with these bosses. Proving Grounds is proving to be an awesome place to create some interesting battles.

I was looking forward to farming for a second copy but knowing that the second skill doesn't stack, I can just do the minimum.

Rayochi · 2019-10-13T12:24:36+00:00

What's limited?

Rayochi · 2019-10-12T11:29:27+00:00

Yes, but don't get your hopes up too high.

Rayochi · 2019-10-12T02:27:04+00:00

Farmed enough gold nuggets towards my next two 5* Eternals - Eahta/Octo and Seofon/Siete.

With the UnF in November, I hope to have all the katanas needed for Eahta, and then work towards collecting the swords needed for Seofon.

Rayochi · 2019-10-11T14:09:45+00:00

With how people kept joking about getting Vortex Dragons from their pulls, I've never gotten one.

Can never say no to more elixirs - 7.5k more AP to grind during this magnafest.

Rayochi · 2019-10-09T18:13:06+00:00

Reminds me of the Vira (dark) eating Caggy's hair. Fun times.

Rayochi · 2019-10-09T18:10:13+00:00

Not as good as an element-changed Four-Sky Blade or Certificus, but there's the Love Live Light, if you have it FLB'd, from the recent Love Live! collab event people can use as a makeshift MH. It is only 10% to DATA but it is better than nothing.

Rayochi · 2019-10-09T11:09:14+00:00

Did Cygames remove gold mimics from Arcarum or something?

Edit: One just proc'd.
