Still trying to figure out how to get this to work; might just be changing the password and sending people the current email address and they can tamper with it from there.

If you want to change the email on a Mobage account, you'll have to go to the actual Mobage site. Can't do it through Granblue Fantasy.

Once you get on the site on a mobile device, press the マイページ button on the bottom. Then that should bring you to something like this. Press the arrow above その他. That should drop down a menu. Click on the gear, and you'll end up here. The first option should be "change email address." Type the email in the blank and select the appropriate ending from the dropdown menu.

At least, that should work?

I added a section in the second post for terms you might see in guides that haven't been updated for the Official English translation yet. Also some character nicknames that you might see floating around that (might be) hard to guess who they are. If there's anything you guys see around that's confusing or unclear or think should be added then please speak up.

Did not know the points carry over, good to know.

Also for anyone who might be interested in this game and hasn't started yet I did a lot of reroll accounts during the 70 free rolls event and saved the decent ones; would be nice if they got put to use tho I'm not sure how to actually transfer accounts around.

Documentation of them is here.

Wow 3 Lucifer accounts, impressive! Account 39 is basically set for light, although light/dark are easily the worst elements to start with but are worth going for later on since bahamut/lucifer get 100/120% multipliers where other elements get like 50/80%/80% atk + 20% hp.

I lucked out so hard during the 70 roll-fest on my main account I've stuck with since November .

Pulled out bahamut on day 1, 1 dark SSR, 2 dark SRs over the week, basically a dark starter team. And I just ticketed Vira today, light is currently the hotness since bahamut HL is the hardest raid now. Although getting to that point is a long rear end ride, basically endgame stuff for people that've been around for 7+ months.

The 70 roll went pretty badly for me, I feel compared to what I've seen others post. I got two SSR characters and one Summon. Though, I do now have a very nice SR pool of characters and can cover all elements for doing story and Free quests, which is nice.

If you can brave 4chan, /vg/'s thread for the game regularly gives away accounts while making fun of reddit and facebook for people paying money for them. (And possibly reporting them for RMT?)

How to Yoda: a primer.

Lots of SSR tier lists make a lot of mention about how powerful Yodarha is for a starter character. And he is! But only if you use him correctly, and most places don't really spell out the mechanics at work.

Why he is special: A 999,999-damage charge attack.

How do you do it?: He starts with a buff "triple shroud" at the beginning of a fight. It has three charges, and doing anything with him uses one or more charge. His normal attack and skills consume a charge, and his charge attack consumes all of the charges. It also does an extra 333,333 damage per charge it eats, so you want to trigger his charge attack when he has all three charges to drop over a million damage.

What's the catch?: He recasts triple shroud on himself every four turns. This means you have to take care to manage his charge level and wait for the recast to buff him up before you unleash the charge attack. (At level 45 he gets his third skill which lets you manually cast the buff and makes life more convenient, but don't waste it because it has a long cooldown.)

What's the BAD catch?: When his buff is depleted, he sucks. He does pitiful damage, he has pitiful defense, and he'll probably instantly die because bosses seem to target him specifically when the buff drops. So there is a gap of at least one round where he's hugely vulnerable and very likely to die.

What do I do about it?: You use his second skill. It gives him 100% dodge for a turn. And as an extra protip, if you use his second skill while he still has his buff up, it spreads the dodge to the entire party, so that's something to consider if you're about to suck down a raid boss's ultimate attack.

So when you're using Yoda, a normal fight should look like this:

Round 1 - Attack (Charges drop to 2)
Round 2 - Attack (Charges drop to 1)
Round 3 - Attack (Charges drop to 0, charge attack should be ready)
Round 4 - Hymn of the Hundreds to stay alive this turn, laugh as all of the attacks bounce off of him (He'll recast triple shroud at the end of the turn, back to three charges)
Round 5 - Ultimate Flash (Do a million damage, charges drop back to 0)

If what you're fighting is still alive at this point, Yoda is probably hosed and about to be one-shotted. You can use his third ability to rebuff him immediately and improve his odds of survival, or if you have another character with a defensive skill, you can use them to keep him alive. He'll be without the buff for three turns if you don't use Perpetual Rotation to rebuff him, so he'd need to be protected for that long until he's in a position to start the process over again.

It's easier if you look at it from the other direction. Until you need something, then you worry about where to get it. And then as you need more and more stuff, you learn where everything is and what it's used for. There's not really a good resource I've found because I had the exact same type of question when I started.

There's the weekend trial quests for money. But co-op is the best for money by selling the coins that drop there, one person can host and 3 others can hop in without any resource needed.

Events that use tokens for event gacha are decent for cash too.

Are you sure you actually logged in? When you first start the app there's two buttons, the first, shiny blue one automatically makes a new account for you, and the second grey one is the one you'd use to log in.

Try this from the Android games thread:

Sendo posted:

I went through this same nightmare, assuming you originally made an account on chrome and have an email login and password. First uninstall the app, then you can try going to https://ssl.sp.mbga.jp/_logout in chrome (on the phone) and clicking the second (I think? try translating) button to log out. Then go back to chrome and try going to https://ssl.sp.mbga.jp and see if it will take you to the login screen (same one as on pc with device mode), if it does then just login with your account you made. If it just starts the game without login in then you will need to delete chrome cookies (I had to do this and there doesn't seem to be anyway to delete specific site cookies on android chrome).

Essentially you want to have logged into the account you intend to play with on chrome on the phone, then reinstall Granblue through qooapp. When you first launch it there are two options from memory, one just starts the game and creates an account itself (what you would have done the first time), the other option is to link an existing account which will then open chrome to mobage site where you are already logged in from before asking for confirmation you want to link the account. I think the button you're looking for when you first launch the app is the second button and it's grey (i also think it has ID mixed between the japanese on the button).

Good job! I made a mistake with team comp doing Survival Hard (Hazen with his heal would've been way better in the front line) and was ready to throw in the towel at like 8/15, but somehow I managed to eek out a win with only Djeeta and Cerebus left in the end with sub 200 hp a piece. Not sure I can take on Extreme.
