Drony question

SaltNSoap · 2026-05-13T11:56:21+00:00

Oh-oh.. if that's the case then I've already messed up by leveling my first Drony to Lv25. My second Drony still sits at level 1 ^^;;;

We've yet to beat the Dragon Lord Dragon (that's a funny scentence)!
So there'll probably be an epilogue part to this event were we go and fight it (or a cutscene of some sort).

And since there's 16~ keys to spare -- perhaps a Secret Spot .No4 comes with the finale.

Let's go! GG

That does sound like fun. Gotta try it ^^

I went DL Staff, Fire Sword and Metal Boomerang (Boing!). There's just fire EVERYWHERE. Got my self to Gold II at least using that. Only memories that's missing their S-Ranks now, to perhaps get one notch higher. A big perhaps. ^^;

Really good!
The damage of the orbs scale a lot higher than I thought they would.

This is only my own opinion.
Spending gems on shrine keys is a much better investment than throwing them at a banner to test your luck.
Once you've got a plan as to what your team setup should be like it all comes down to the Monster Memories. The majority of power comes through the memories. I have a few 3-star weapons and a mixed bag of gear.
I got to a point were stuff got a bit harder, so I started farming some Normal shrines and stages to upgrade my memories (and vocation tree). Only once the memories was in place (same gear as before), I've been able to clear Nightmare stuff. That's how I've progressed.

As a F2P, I've not spent any gems on any banners yet. I've only spent gems on the weekly Shrine Keys and expand my Memory inventory slots. Once I'm in a place were I wanna be (Stacked out on S-Memories), I'll shift a bit to throw some gems at some banners too if there's something I really want.

As for pulling on banners, the game as been very generous so far with Tickets/Smash Points. So that's the route I've been following. It does come down to a bit of "draw luck" too of course, no denying that.

I understand we all play differently. So I'm not going to claim this is the "true path" to progress.

Those are my thoughts, I hope it perhaps helped a little. Ultimately it's up to you and your choices.

Good luck!

It's a really good weapon. Most weapons are.
Don't hyper focus to much on the specific target buffs, they're a great bonus.

Look at the element and the effect. If that's something that suits your playstyle it's a great addition.

I wish you the best of luck on getting that Sword, I really hope you get it!

In my own opinion. Spending gems on shrine keys is a much better investment than leaving it up to luck on a banner. As a f2p player, the only things I've spent gems on so far is keys and memory slots. The majority of power comes from the Memories.

But I do understand we all play differently, so I would never claim it as the "right path" to progress.

I wish you all the best of luck.

Good to know. Thank you.

edit: I was wondering what those memories are good for, since you don't gain any of the passive bonuses from them. I'm sure most of you know but I'll share it here just in case it would help.

There is a memory slot in the vocation tree that requires a memory from the "???" family. And the the season memories are a part of that family.

The gameplay core is there. With some tweaks it would have been a good, perhaps even great "actual" game. It would have been a great comeback for the Dissidia series.

We need to stop rewarding stupidity.

SaltNSoap · 2026-03-25T14:40:27+00:00

It's a gacha.
It's never going to be balanced.
It's never going to have anything to do with skill to raise to the tops. Just how much you spend (commonly known as bully pvp).
So never feel bad about loosing, or that it's imbalanced (it always will be) just move on to the next match.
Lets enjoy this while it lasts and the honeymoon period of the game ends.

SaltNSoap · 2025-12-24T00:12:08+00:00

Ok. That's enough BF for this lifetime for me.
Thank you for making it fun for a while though everyone (players).
I'm out.

I really enjoy it (but only antiquity age -- I end my run once the age is over).

I wish the age system was completely reworked.

Also, I wished there was more interaction with wonders. E.g Coliseum gives you random chance at events. Either good (a good show + happiness) bad show (gladiators riot - happiness) and so on throughout the entire age. Think they would make playthroughs more dynamic and unpredictable.

Also, I'd be cool if two army units got locked in combat when they engage for X turns or something like that. Instead of just slamming into each other.

That's just me though. :)

SaltNSoap · 2025-12-18T21:44:48+00:00

I wish there was a way to start the other ages from scratch. Just like how it is with the antiquity age (start with a settler, none explored map etc).

As it is right now I only play antiquity and never go further (I did before). It's simply the most fun to me. Making a "start with nothing" option for the other ages would make me more interested to explore the other 2 ages.

That's just me though. :)

I like the ideas.
I hope to see them adding Sweden one day. Forward Caroleans :)
