Faith increases your damage dealt and taken with magic attacks. Brave is the same for melee. Getting to high or low in either will cause that unit to leave your party.

You can also permanently increase/decrease them with the faith/brave buffs. I think you get 1 pt permanently when you get buffed debuffed. They also effect a whole bunch of other stuff like item find and counters. There's almost no reason not to have them. high

:goonsay:
Ackshully,

Only very high faith (like 95 or something) and low brave cause a unit to leave the party (unless they changed this in the war of the lions edition or something).

High brave has virtually no downside that I can recall and mostly affects the proc rate of a unit's reaction abilities. It doesn't change melee damage given or taken. Having a unit with 100 brave and 0 faith is totally viable as long as you don't rely on any magic skills. (it also alters how much they can be healed by magic so a 0 faith unit gets no benefits from allied white mages, for example)

I wasted a LOT of my childhood on FFT.

You try to be happy when everyone is summoning you everywhere to "be their friend".




To turn that right back on you, the highest Brave that is possible is 97, as you only get a permanent change of +1 Brave for every +4 temporary Brave change. When you're at 97, you can't go up in an increment of 4 anymore and thus can't gain any more permanent Brave. :eng101:

Ya got me.

With temporary brave you can go over 100 though, iiirc. I don't know if there's actually an upper limit on it. Maybe 255? It's been at least a decade since I played the game, in my defense :v:

I've been playing it a bit, it's how I remember Lineage 2 mobile to be back when I played that.

Feels a lot more polished, but not sure how long it's going to keep my attention. At least I haven't unlocked auto fighting yet, so the only auto part is walking between quest locations.

It's very Netmarble but if you get Orochi Iroi you get a unit that's still the 3rd best unit even in Japan which is like a year ahead. I'm mostly just enjoying the new car smell for now, hopefully by the time the You Need This Unit To Play banners start rolling out there will be something better to play or god willing I get a brain and stop playing gacha games.

AFK Arena, since bringing my 5th team member to Ascended, the Arcane Lab has just become such a slog. I don't know what happened, but it's just like certain units have fallen off. Brutus at 220 with full strengthened mythic+ gear with matching element does absolute gently caress all damage at this point. Like went from being a solid member, to doing garbage tier damage. Shemira is starting to fall off and not carry as hard either. I've been looking at dropping one of my mobile games, and I feel like AFKArena is getting to that point now like 6 months in. I don't spend at all in the game, but now that I'm finally at end-game and to see characters still die instantly. Without even firing an ability, just boom dead, 530k life, my Belinda(ascended 2*) is dead instantly at the start of a battle. Like what the hell have I been gearing up for if battles don't even drag out a little bit longer compared to early levels,.

AFK Arena chat - I've been out of the game for a while but my buddy offered me his account because he wants to quit spending money on it. Good loving lord. Everything is 286, and apparently at some point he was 8th in the world on the arena. I don't want to know what he's put into the game.

When you say sort of, what do you mean? If you enjoyed the PvP stick with hearthstone. If you want more PvE content, give Legends a go.

Faction scrolls have no guarantee you'll get anything useful, so I would just pick a unit you want and save for that. I'm going for Lucius because I just need one more to get mine to Ascended.
