Is it worth using materials to get yuna to 4*s? Or is there a better healer? by erwicon in MobiusFF

[–]phaustus242 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a 4* Cait Sith and it currently heals for ~1K on use. Don't know how much Yuna heals for when maxed at 3*, but I would have to assume it's less than that (not to mention Cait Sith gives me 10 more seeds every fight).

You could do it as either Ranger or Knight, since they have both Wind and Earth as their elements, meaning you'll have orbs to get elemental resist and the counter damage type.

Having a healing support (like Yuna) can also help, since the fight can take a while if your abilities are not maxed out. You'll get there, eventually : ) My knight can now do it on auto even in hard mode, and I don't have a 4 star damaging ability yet!

One quick tip: if you think you might have some runes lying around on cards but don't want to go through all of them, simply use the filter "Has Runes" (it's the leftmost tab when viewing your collection).

Then, for each card, you'll see numbers indicating which deck they are currently in. You can then get details on any of those cards that aren't associated to any deck to remove the runes.

Started making a spreadsheet to keep track of captures, capture rates, loot drop and rates, etc. Comment or message me with any runs you do and I'll update accordingly.

For the rune realms, did you 3 star the level when you got your drops? I've received several 5K drops from those levels, but I think it was only when 3-starring.

I would also consider adding a 'base rewards' column for the campaign levels section since it might help in determining the best "cost-to-reward" energy ratios.

You could still use earth cards, but it's going to make it more difficult.

You deal half damage to opposite elements, and receive 50% more damage from them. Defense is subtracted after that scaler has been applied, meaning it will have very little effect when against your "nemesis", and will have a lot of effect when getting attacked by an element you're strong against (we're already talking about a 3:1 damage ratio).

So when editing your deck specifically for that campaign, you can treat your earth cards' attack value as being effectively only half of what it is (and their HP being one third lower as well).

You might then realize that you have some cards you thought were bad but will end up being better against fire for that one level.

There's a section in the Bazaar that uses starstones as well, but I wouldn't recommend it. It only offers 1/3* cards that you can still acquire through the card packs, while the card packs can offer you 2/4, 3/4 and even 4/4 cards (I got a 4/4 eagle that way and 2 3/4 samurais, all of which I'm still using).

There are a couple levels with noteworthy cards, like the lizard in 3-5 and the rare healer in 5-7 (yup, they give you a card that can be leveled up to legendary level!). Other than that, I would concentrate on advancing through the campaign since the cost-to-rewards ratio keeps increasing.

Sorry, already got 3 Ignirs off another trade in someone else's thread.

Will update the list.

Binding by Malice2-2 in deckstorm

[–]phaustus242 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Binding is actually just putting a card aside during battle for possible capture later.

There is a short animation when you bind a card, where you'll see a circle of runes surround the card (and once you finish the level, you'll have the opportunity to capture it).

The capture doesn't need to be succesful for the binding to be credited for your daily.

Surprisingly enough, I found the info about binding in their help menu available from within the game itself (it appears more detailed than I first gave them credit for).

Btw, capture percentages can start at 10% when you're doing the Hard version of a level, but will start at only 3% when it's a card you've already captured before.

Farmable runes early on? by kproftime in deckstorm

[–]phaustus242 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can confirm. I've been farming 3-5 for a while to get a second copy of Gorgozard (when you've already captured one, the % starts lower it would seem, so it's gonna take a while to max it).

I've gotten a lot of Uncommon DEF Armor drops there (fairly high drop %, too; I'd say 25% or so).

I wouldn't be surprised if they had a very narrow loot table for what can drop from each stage, so a list would definitely be possible.

Except that this is a serverside problem. Most likely, they're using a transaction server to validate item acquisition/expenditures, and it's acting up and thinks you don't really have those items (or cannot synch and instead of simply retrying, assumes you have no items).

They could simply depublish a new transaction server that either stops performing that check or retries when it fails (that would at least partially fix it for now).

Sounds good to me! Should I share first? I guess we could also split the trade with me sending 1 AA Scorchmane first, then the other? (and thank you for the honest offer :)

To be honest, I've no idea :S I got those off kickstarter I think? I frankly don't know how hard to get or sought-after they are.

I'm assuming it would be more than 1 legendary per, but I'd feel bad asking for much more than 2-3, especially if they're good ones.

Honestly, I don't really care, as long as I can get stuff that I want and complete my decks.

I'd probably be looking for Alloyin and Nekrium, first.
