Wow.... looking at my Belinda guide made me cringe slightly....

The Witch Girl


Hello there boys and girls erm.... men and women....*crickets*... uh..... Ladies and Gentlemen?

......Anyway........

Nutaku has announced the first update and event for the english version of Aigis. It will contain the following.


10 new characters
The "Daughter of the Witch" Event
A male healer
Several tweaks and fixes


Now Nutaku has said they would post more info tomorrow so be sure to check back then! Now you may be thinking "Lafate who are these new characters? What is the "Daughter of the Witch" Event and how do I ace it? Why is a male healer so important that it deserved it own bulletin?" Well beloved reader I will answer all those question for you... Well at least partially with the information I do have access to.

Why is a male healer so important?
Because currently there are no male healers in games. This makes male only maps insanely hard to complete, and we were suppose to have a male healer at launch of the game, but for some reason they replaced him with the second Alissa they gave us on Drill: Healer.

Who are the new characters?
Well I can only confirm one due to the event. As for the second it is a toss up of which male healer they give us as there are only two in the JP version. I'm leaning towards Healing Lion Roberto over Priest Christopher. Either way it is one of the two. So here is Christopher and Roberto respectively.

Daughter of the Witch Event? Note: This contains spoilers of the event, and is meant to try and help you complete it to the level of being able to obtain one -3 5/5 Skill event unit, and no I am not telling you who she is the daughter of. You will have to find that out on your own.... or guess it is pretty easy.


Introducting..... White Witch Belinda!

Comments about what you need to worry about for your team. As well as goals for the event.

Looking at most of these videos they were mostly done with 40-50 average teams or lower. If you happened to get your units to 50CC20 you should be golden for this event. However, if you didn't you probably wondering on what units are the most important. Once again looking at the video it was fairly clear you wanted at least two units to fight the Dragon Mages(Princess, Bandits, Dorania, or Valkyries), you wanted a couple of strong healers or a lot of decent ones, and finally one or two Mages to deal with the rush. Those are the units you should focus on to get you through.

After this you'd want to focus on Witches, Archers, a Heavy Armor and a Soldier which will make it even easier for you to beat all these maps. If you figured out how to deal with the Ryujin King map from Ryujin Invasion you should be completely okay up until the last two maps.

Honestly though the side rewards are alright. Four guaranteed silvers, A gold(Which is useless since we have Katie and Aria), platinum fairy(which I imagine those who could obtain Dorania last event won't need all that bad), Black fairy(yay free black fairy. fairly hard to come by for most players right now), and Rainbow fairy(gives the chance to increase the skill level of the unit it is combined into). I'd honestly recommend saving that fairy for Karma. Better her then what most people have right now.

Other then that... I'd say farm the ever living daylights out of this guy right here http://gyazo.com/c24cb9da7db5accfc7a750704fafab75.png

Well... that is if you have...

Thetis, Sakuya(potential new unit), Hina(new unit), Victoria, Adele, Despara, Kerry, Garrett, or Cloris... Yes I know some of those we all get. The reason you want to farm the daylights out of him is because he has Increase Attack 3 and 4. All these units have this skill so you'll want to get them as high as possible if not 5/5. It really is the only thing to do after you get the completion units.

Note: You need to save at least one of the Bronze and Silver Dragon Soldiers to unseal Anya. DO NOT FORGET THAT
Note 2: This is the only time you'll have to get the completion rewards. If we get this as a revival event in the future they will not be there.


Note: All characters are shown with their maximum potential for our version.

Comments about the event
This event should be fairly easy if you were able to do the last one. Even those who it was a nightmare for. There really is nothing to simply nuke down your units in this event. If you really need something to focus on then I'd say Witches, Archers, and Mages.

As for what you should focus on... well it simple. Get any silvers you need or if you want to get a perfect Maribelrun the last map of the event. It has around a 50% drop rate of her from what the JP players have reported. The other maps that drop Maribelle do not even compare in drop rate.

Spotlight Units
Lilia, Sherry, Sybilla


Couldn't find Ryujin Invasion. If asked I could redo all of these in my current format.

Thanks. If nothing else then these will work fine.
I won't ask you to redo them completely. That will be up to you. I just wanted something for archiving purposes once I get the wiki for Aigis going.

Am I the only one who already seems to have progress in the event despite not starting yet? The thing shows up with 2 stars on the first mission for me. Not sure if that was what I got back when I started Aigis.

It saves progress so it pretty much should

It keeps your old progress, so if you played those maps before, you will have them finished :P

It kinda feels good to rape those 1* 2-3stamina maps that i couldnt finish when i just started playing <3 Punishment time~
