I am so excited. My Colt just became my first 6* with a random Honor Summon I did for reasons passing understanding.

I want to get him to 7*, but I don't know if my team can hold out against the Mecha dungeons, about what should my average team... star level(?) be for that?

Should average 6* unless you have some very specific units (mix of mitigation, healing, status immune, high hp ideally), then you may be able to do it with a mix of 5 and 6 stars. The mecha gods output a lot of damage.

Really need to retool my arena squad now that you get bonus points for both win streaks and random rules. Probably should swap in some 7* units for the added stats in the rare cases I get hit by the 'No BB' rule.

For some reason my available quests in raid battles are all empty, as such I cannot choose a quest to start. Anyone run into the same issue?

Reading about raids make me sad - I still do not get to select any quests in them. Seems like reinstalling/refreshing data does not work, though reading through some posts in other forums, it may take multiple tries.

I got an Aurelia. That, Selena and Ultor makes three guys who I absolutely dread to farm bulbs and mega man robots for. Is there any way to maximize my chance of capturing a bulb? Or it simply get lucky? Also is it ever worth it to empty a unit slot in your team to field a seven star when you can't afford to field a full team? I can evolve my Tora and I'm wondering if that's worth it.

Just luck on the bulb, basically (other than choosing the correct vortex dungeon). And as far as I can tell, 2 six-stars are better than 1 seven-star and 1 empty slot. So filling up your entire team should be better.

A seven star leader and an empty slot is better than a 6 star leader and 6 star sub usually. Plus you can always toss some 5 star sub in with the 7 star if you need the extra damage. Odds are if you're early enough in content that filling out a team is somethin you lack the cost to do, the 7* unit is going to be pretty much invincible in those fights. A 7 star unit taking maybe 1-200 damage per hit from a boss is going to survive a lot longer than a pair of 6 star units taking 800+ damage there. Before I stopped using my team in Japan it was Kira/Feeva/Darvanshell/Michele. I could've dropped Feeva or Kira to bring in Rigness and Zelnite but rarely was it necessary outside of trials and the later GGCs.

I think Tora is not so great a leader in your typical situations to give up a slot for. You do have a point about seven star leader skill in general though, I guess I was somehow thinking from purely a sub role and a zero sum situation (as you say, can always throw in a 5 star rather than leave the slot empty). I do think that the survivability between a 5->6 star is greater than that between 6->7 star. There may also be some difference in damage? You likely have the 6-stars at SBB10, while a 7-star and a 5-star (which normally is not worth the effort to get BB to 10) may get outdamaged.

Got a breaker Zenia, I guess that means I can stop leveling/evolving my anima Lava?

Farming middle FH, would love it if more people put their Kiras up.

Finally managed Trial 7 after I realised that Tridon's shield is still bugged. The first two times I went in blind and had Ark wipe my squad twice cutting through the shield, 140% def buff and Aurelia's rec to def buff. After that, Zenia's UBB made the entire run a joke. I mean just plain attacking with everyone but the mitigator took about 20% of the Ark's health bar so the whole run took about 12 to 15 turns.

Even if they never get Tridon's shield right, I can't imagine there's any content out there that the Global units can't just waltz through.

Bugged how? Also what team/leads did you use for Ark?

Add me, VassarLB (2359989278) if you don't have me already. I keep my breaker Kira up during Medal Rush and FH. Otherwise I have Griff, Bestie, Tridon, and Zenia I can put up.

Certain threshold damage attacks will use Tridon's shield to calculate damage instead of your unit's actual HP. So if a threshold attack is suppose to do 150% of your HP, it'll do 4500 damage (150% of the 3k shield) instead of like... 25k damage (for a unit with 15k HP).

Added you. Hmm, did not really notice that, though I also went into Ark blind as well. Might not have shields up when he did the big ST hits.

Finally I can use Lilith again (after a few more months).

Another advise is that you should usually keep at least a copy of a unit even if it is bad (now). Who knows what future evolution/buffs they will get.

Update came out with guilds now. I created one called "SA Goons" if anybody is still playing and wants to join. I don't know all the benefits, but it's something to do at least.

Request sent.
