Good timeofaday, brave Princes! It is that time of the year, with old one coming to an end and new one approachng. And so, it is a time for our only special event aside from Summer Vacation...

First 4 runs (http://agentfakku.tumblr.com/post/155038659065/team-arrow-team-pirate-team-witches) had 2 Belindas drop but no Black Fairies or Calliope so far.

I'll just keep making random teams

Thx for the guide, again :)
Also, holy """WOMAN!!?""" elyse? If she was actually a """WOMAN!!""" then we should've seen her art in the banner instead of sprite... at least... Really, nutaku relesed nothing but lolis in past weeks but all sprite form.

So uh... when do we get the platinum event units after achieving 3* + Drop Completion? Because I'm not seeing any such Belinda drops (nor in gifts or anything). Or is that yet another Nutaku-Fail?

YA FUCKED UP ZET

Should make a note that plat units only appear when maps are 3*'d, and have a low drop rate.

Now might be a good time to try to finish mincosting Charlotte...

gotta mincost odette myself. both copies are at 3cr since i had terriblel luck on both accounts

I have the same question myself. I don't particularly care about Belinda since I mincosted her but seeing as I lack pretty much every other platinum on the list I'd like to know how you get them.

The banner is very poorly worded. The plat units have a chance to drop in subsequent runs of the map after getting 3*. This is independent of drop completion for earning the gold unit (in fact they don't appear as drops in the mission select screen after dropping either).

on Aigis Wikia, they say it's a random drop after you 3 star the mission

I can confirm this is the way it works. you 3 star the map, the the map then adds the plat unit as a enemy. if you defeat that enemy you have a chance of it dropping it self. Or at least how the 1st one was. I got the Belinda to drop same round i got black sprite. but still did not get Silver witch until 3 more runs after. Then making it complete and getting gold unit. So you do not need to get the complete to get platinum to drop, just need to 3 star the map and start farming.

just how low the silver unit drop rate is. ive run 17 times. 2 belindas, 6 black spirit, 0 calliope so far. wtf......

well , i've gotten 2 caliopees and no black spirits on an account with awakened celia....so there is that...

12-28-2016, 03:26 AM
I got two black fairies on my first two runs, then she never appeared again. I also have AW Cellia (bitch).

As expected, no Hien map today, going straight to Odette. Drops are affection, so bring Cuterie if you have her.

This was awkward as fuck though. tfw ran out of ranged units

1st map: i got bunch of copper fairies and 2 silver ice mage
2nd map: got a bunch of bouquet

conclusion: its impossible to get all the gold units without spending SC on stamina
my storage is not that good anyway......

PS the 2nd map is kinda fun IMO

Over 25 rounds on 1st map, and didn't completed the map. poor me. :(

Fuuka was pretty awesome on the first map. Granted, its not overly hard, but it still neat watching her fire at everything in range while the rest of my ranged are just kind of sitting there. She's just like, "Snow? What snow?"

EDIT: As a previous addition to my previous comment, the drop rates for everything seems to be rather abysmal. Even the gold units. I've used up 2 crystals refilling stamina now, and still don't even have any of the maps 3*. My own personal opinion? Event's not really worth doing at this point. You'd be better off spending your crystals and charisma on the Rural District Battle.

Disagree. And the gold units are a 1 time drop reward for getting the other drops.


This even willl give quite a few a nice heavy armor in bernice , and the witch looks pretty good as well. range and damage increase is good. The angel seems to be okay as well , and vincent is not an entirely bad unit. For example , i use vincent to farm DC on the G map , since you need 2 archers capable of 1 shotting the eyes , and my bashira (on the non nanaly account) is not AW-ed yet (i hate the priority changing effect on her) , so i use a max-ed cc-ed vincent. He 1 shots them without being awakened , so that's nice

So I was wrong. You get the golds by completing the drops. THE PROBLEM STEMS FROM being unable to complete the damn drops. I'm up to 5 crystals spent refilling stamina and nothing to show for doing so. I am hesitant to invest more into this particular event with what appears to be a rather low payout (at least for me).

I guess the kind of good thing is that I already have my almost perfected team, and none of those golds really look like they'll add anything to my lineup.

lolix
12-28-2016, 12:42 PM
some missions (like the first one) will have crapier droprate (since it requires a black spirit drop - use celia if avaible to improve droprate) , but others are easier (the second map requires aff items to drop - you can use cuterie to improve droprate) and a silver.


Other then that , this event will give 10 golds. Technically it is one of the better events a freemium can invest in aigis.



If not for anything else , you still get RC for the gold units. 200 free RC are nothing to scoff at

JMich
12-28-2016, 02:18 PM

yeah. I did that map even more , with an awakened celia. Luckly i've finally got that black spirit and the second map had much better droprates.


Generally speaking , spirits have awfull droprates.

0 odettes on 1 account after 1 sc. 1 odette on the other after 2 scs. Still no cr/su , even tho main odette is at 3 cr and 11 su. Kinda shitty..

I didn't have Hanzo in the party when I tackle the map blind. I did have the magic fencer but I didn't have him in my main team. Then, I had Saizo. I just used Lucille (her ability), Saizo, and Magic Fencer

Thanks, I train Hanzo.

u can use the archers (if u place them on the middle slots since they will attack their blocked units like that. If you place them on the top/bot slots they will attack the circle demons.) If you have the prince set down already , an awakened spica will kill them in 3 hits , long before they have a chance to paralyze her. A bashira should do similar stuff , considering a non awakened bashira (cc-ed and max level tho) can kill them in 4 barely 1 shot before paralyzing to their last attack. still she will kill them , and after paralyze passes , she will resume her attack).



Keep in mind tho that i have awakened spica and the big hero buff on my prince , so not sure in how many hits they will kill the demons with saviour and without spica buff

In the first wave of three snowmen, the snowman on the right drops a copper spirit. In the sixth wave of snowmen (which spawns with Belinda if the player has earned three stars), the bottom snowman drops the other copper spirit. In the seventh wave of snowmen, the one on the left drops Calliope. In the last wave, the one on the right drops the black spirit.

Got Odette on my 9th run

LMAO it happened after I tossed Cuterie at her hoping Cuterie gets kill

Tony
12-28-2016, 07:48 PM
Hmm, just to be sure, adjusting drop rates of one item wouldn't affect the other right? For example, if I had Cuterie on my team, the boost to gift drops won't affect unit drops or demon crystal drops or something, right?

From what I understand each item has its own chance to drop and is independent of other items. With Cuterie you increase the inherent chance that affection items drop and this does not change the other items' chance. For example, lets say that a bouquet has a 3% chance and Calliope has 1% (sheer guessing here), with Cuterie the bouquet now has an 8% chance to drop (if my math is right) but Calliope still stays at 1%.

Is seems Bernice was going to be the most difficult one for some strange reason. If you lack ranged based melee units you are pretty much doomed. I lucked out with a very bizarre strategy I made and thank God I somehow got all the drops and Bernice:D. I only got one star but I don't care. Of all the units we're getting she is the one I cared for the most so I'm happy!

I don't have any, yet it's still very simple map for me. All you need is three or four ranged units (let's say, Spica (if she's weak, then you'll need additional archer), pirate and VH) + prince. Just drop prince first, then VH on the leftmost or rightmost slot, when she'll become paralized, remove her and place a pirate instead, then do the same on the opposite side.

It's a usual practice on DMM (to put event plats as side-drop in GR) and it has nothing to do with revivals. Besides, we already had revivals for some of those plats (Belinda and Maribel).

So far 38 attempts over first three maps, zero completed. "Fun" event all right. I'm really starting to doubt I'll complete any map at this pace, which kind of makes this whole event utterly pointless. I really don't mind having to spend about a day worth of stamina for completion, but yeah, it's way past that here.

learnyoursin
12-29-2016, 06:56 PM
It really is fascinating being on the other side of RNG for once - I've gotten complete drops from each map within natural daily stamina so far - (but now that I have acknowledged that, I'm probably going to suffer for my insolence.)

Maybe it's just me, but I have a hard time matching the girl that appears in today's map with Ada (presumably Ada, since it's Vincent's map, the whole event is somewhat out of order from the original post's version though the maps are correct)

Edit: Never mind, Ada just showed up on my next run at the end. So who's the vampire girl, if anyone special, and is she an (eventually) recruitable unit?

TFW the plat unit you don't want drops (Ada) but the ruby you want for the gold unit you want (Vincent) refuses to. And yesterday I didn't care about the gold unit (Dorothy) so much and I couldn't get Rika (who I want) to drop...

Don't give up! It took me three days to get the Ryuryu while both Bernice and Dorothy dropped within first three-five runs. So you too will see the completion eventually! Hopefully...

- - - Updated - - -

Gotten Vincent within day's worth of stamina too. All it took for last drop to appear was bringing different team :p

Really, if map gets you mostly the same drop, try clearing it with different team composition. Wiki-goers have half-serious theory that Aigis's RNG uses you team lineup as a seed in some way, so who knows, it might help ;)

Vincent's story sounds awesome compared to the other Gold Rush maps.

Too bad, we don't get the vampire girl along w/ Vincent. Instead we get Ada? At least, I hope to the net the badass Vincent today

ZeroZet
12-30-2016, 02:46 PM
To be fair, that Vampire Lord girl is a future event star, so consider that map as a teaser ;)

And apparently all these Gold Rush maps tie into other events or plot at large. Lost Santa was a direct aftermath of Eliza's (what we yet to get), Automata one is continuation of Rika's, Vincent's is not only a teaser for future event, but aftermath of Karma's... Even map with gates move plot, introducing the hell portals (well, supposed to, as we already got some maps with them).

Got Vincent on my 4th run (http://agentfakku.tumblr.com/post/155180160925/fuck-yeah-got-vincent-on-my-4th-run-avengers)! Didn't get Ada. It's okay, I'll go back once I clear 3rd map >:)

Teasers to future events? Here's hopeing we are able to get them. I am particularly interested in the vampire event both after doing Vincent's map and after seeing its revival on DMM.

It seems what I said stands true with Bernice's map being the most difficult (for me at least). I quite literally soared through the past two maps.

I may be bring up an unpopular opinion, but are there some units people are not interested in getting, be it gold or platinum? For me, a lot of the golds I managed to get through sheer luck so there are only a few (like Bernice or Erun) that I am really interested in. For example, I managed to get Vincent beforehand and Ada holds no interest for me so I am not going to busy myself for them except maybe to get Rainbow Crystals. Is any one else in a similar predicament?

So far:


1st map - cleared it w/in 8 runs extra: 2 Belindas

outside of the free golds , i kinda want odette. Got 2 drops on my first account , still didnt managed to reduce her cost past 3cr or raise her skill (it's at 10) with either of them , so that sucks

- - - Updated - - -

edit:


Vincent's story sounds awesome compared to the other Gold Rush maps.

Too bad, we don't get the vampire girl along w/ Vincent. Instead we get Ada? At least, I hope to the net the badass Vincent today

I did say multiple times that guys have much better scenes (because they actually give lore) , which is why we need more guys in the games.


All around , from the karma event , his own aff scenes and the future vampire event , i'd say that vincent is one of the better characters developed in the game. Also he looks rather badass.

Vincent's lore is in no way over yet. There will be an event later on where you'll get the vampire girl. Of course you won't be getting a star event unit we haven't even gotten the actual event of yet :P

lolix
12-30-2016, 05:14 PM
well , he is not that insane of a character all around. I mean , he is good vs undead or unarmored stuff. He's also really good with a dancer. Hell , he can work really well as a substitute aw archer (most likely bashira) or the G tier map for on DC farming , without actually being awakened. (You still need spica tho)


But honestly , what i really want in him is his SAW. He does a huge amount of damage with it. Just imagine it boosted by a max skill level aw uzume and a dancer :).


Guess at that point it's overkill anyway , and i honestly don't see many maps wehre you would require THAT much damage, but i just think its cool. Untill then , vincent will stay on the bench for me. But i really want to skill awaken him sometime

so far:
1st Map - 17 run: 2 Belinda, 6 Black Fairy, 0 Calliope
2nd Map - 23 run: 5 Odette, 0 Valerie
3rd Map - 6 run: 3 Rikka, 3 Black Fairy
4th Map - 3 run (not yet got Ada & Ruby)

Rikka's map is the easiest since i know my 'weird' luck did drop so many black fairy on 1st map.
it made me think the drop rate's rigged of something.
some ppl cleared it on 1st three run. while ive done more then 20 run on 2nd map yet Valerie is nowhere to be found.
im gonna try different setup of my team on 2nd map like ZeroZet say, but not different team, since ive no way to beat the map without Ninja's help.

12-30-2016, 08:20 PM
Here's mine atm.

1st map, 20+ runs. 6 belinda, 5 calliope, 1 black spirit - took me a day and 1SC.

2nd map, 6 runs. 1 valerie, 1 odette - I got the crystal last and still doing this map if I have spare charisma since I dont have a min costed odette. But still no luck getting them to drop after the 1st one.

3rd map, 8 runs. 12 silver fairy, 1 gold fairy, 1 black fairy - Black fairy on the 1st run and the gold fairy took the rest :D

4th map, 6 runs. 1 millenium wine, 1 ruby, 1 ada - all I can say is they all drop on separate runs.

5th map, 2 runs. 1 plat fairy, 1 black fairy - black 1st, 2nd plat.

6th map, 7 runs. 2 diamonds, 1 sanosuke, 1 shiho

7th map, 10 runs. 1 plat armor, 1 dan

8th map, 17 runs, 7 gold fairy, 1 black fairy


Oh and I have all the farming units (I think) in my team. Monica, Robert, Cuterie, and Cellia

Well we have to remember that this game is geared more towards guys. And said guys are probably more so interested in the sex scenes rather than lore scenes. The most lore we get for the female units is in the event maps and they may be a bit shallow even (though not in a bad way). I do agree that more lore scenes would be best. Maybe have both lore and sex scenes for the women? That could work I think. There is a lot of potential for it with the material we have.

lolix
12-31-2016, 06:36 AM
guess i'm a girl now then....


After more then a year , the sex scenes get boring really fast. A good game will have a great story first and foremost , with a nice and intersting world , and develop the characters and relationships after that.
Random sex scenes don't develop the plot at all , and considering its not even animated , i have a hard time seeing anyone get even slighty aroused by them , which is why i preffer the guys scenes.



Would love to play the all ages version tho

IvanLedah21

They could have a setup like X-Overd, where there's a mix of character development and sex scenes. Potentially something like:
25% - Talk
50% - Sex
75% - Talk
100% - Sex again

Just insert the talk scenes at 25% and 75% and make the first sex scene 50%. It'd be a decent mix of both (to satisfy lore people and the hentai lovers)

As for drop progress, I got a Rika so I ditched map 3 before completion (I have 3 copies of the gold already) where Map 2 I want Odette so even after completion I'm still running it. Then it'll be on to Map 4 to try for Ada. Since it seems Maps 2 AND 4 were both skipped... does that mean Map 5 is Kerry? I wonder which of 2 or 4 will show up later...

RNG is a fickle mistress though generally cruel.

I agree with everything you say. The sex scenes do get boring after a while and since you have to work for them it is simply easier to just look for hentai online (for the record I am guy). I have tried the DMM safe for work version and true they don't have sex scenes but I have feeling they simply hold back the scene and keep the dialog, though I am not certain on it.

I would love for them to add stories for the female units and it has a lot of potential. Leanne's story could be similar to Brianne of Tarth from Game of Thrones (whose names sound oddly similar), we could learn why Anya was sealed in Dorania, why the Ryujin decided to re-invade and how this threatened Echidna, we could explore the relationship between Alyssa and Soma since they are both close to the Prince, there just so much material and it's simply squandered.

Well, who knows? Maybe one day we can get character campaigns where we could learn a little more on their stories and characters similar to how Flower Knight Girl has for some units (though I have yet to try them).

Brave Raven has a lot of dialogue for their affection which gives awards. You can access the H scenes, 2 times.

Tenhou
12-31-2016, 02:09 PM
There ARE stories for all the female characters. But we do not have them because we do not have the all ages version of the game where the sex scenes are switched for the conversations.

Wish they'd add it, because as much as i love collecting sex scenes that i'll look at once, never masturbate to, feel satisfied with having gotten, and then forget, i would love to get the conversations and some lore.

And to further build onto what i mentioned first - DMM even has a character challenge for some characters which when completed (requires said character to be AW'd) grants you a third scene/conversation.

That said, i do not find the sex scenes stale. Perhaps because i do not really read them or use them. I just find it fun to get the scenes, go "yup, this looks nice" and then hit the skip button. Don't underestimate a collector's spirit! Checking a random CG site online destroys the collecting fun. Yes, i know i'm weird.

@Tenhou

Is that what the dialog is then on the all age version? Great! This will give me something to help learn Japanese and some character building as well. And trust me, I am a collector/completionist as well and I do view getting those scenes as an accomplishment. What I was referring to was that given how long it takes to get the sex scene, it is simply easier to find a random piece of hentai elsewhere on the internet which is why a lore based dialog rather than sex scene would be better, in my opinion.

Following this, does the progress on the nsfw version coincide with the all age version? As in, would I have all units and levels that I gained be shared across the two?

@lolix @HungryHunter

I feel a bit bad because I lucked out and got Sasha and Berna from the shrine and with that I forget that others still have difficulty in some areas. However, with the current trend would we not have revivals of those events? Or is the schedule still up in the air?

Please no. The fact there is no option to turn off them talking forever is why I quit X-Overd, it was terribly implemented. If they ever allow you to permanently skip the fluff talk that you have to click 10 times to get past I may consider going back.

I have 4 Automata Rikas and I haven't even completed the drop yet. Crazy.

Is she worth using? I'm still new and only have 5 or so cced units (basic healer/archer/tanks). I don't know how I feel about melee units with only one block but she is platnum and I might be able to get close to min costing her would she be worth to level.

There is always a way to do it and that system seems quite nice and simple. As Tenhou said, Aigis (alongside Flower Knight, Sengoku Providence, and others) has skip feature in there to go past dialog in events.

For the event, I do like how it seems many of us aim for the gold but end up getting the platinum instead. Tried to get the Kerrry but ended up with Charlotte (whom I needed anyway). Well either way the grind continues!

Bronzes are too looks like garbage and inv slot wasters but they are actually not. With them i can increase my spirit-tin can usage level limit, thus wasting so less tin-cans and spirit in the end.

That's entirely your problem. Disregarding the fact that shaman are pretty great hybrids, Shiho is still one of THE best single-target healers in the game, so to call her "crap" is patently false.

That's like saying a non-CR Aria is crap and worse than Katie/Julian, even though AW Aria is way more better/useful than the other gold soldiers 90% of the time.

You do realize Shiho is infinitely better than Kagura, right?

Infinitely better is a stretch. Shiho's big claim to fame is that she has aggressive stats for her class and a pretty hefty multiplier when you've got her skill maxed out. She definitely beats out Kagura on throughput but you need to 5/5 her for the difference to become dramatic meanwhile Kagura was an easy to perfect star unit and breaks about even in terms of AW ability. If Kagura's skill was any worse I'd be right there with you in trashing her but ultimately an attack speed increase skill is pretty acceptable on a unit who will be using that time to heal anyway.

Tenhou
01-02-2017, 07:15 AM
The thing with shiho is not her increased atk, it's her permanently increased attack speed. It puts her on a different healing speed than most healers (her SAW makes her switch between attacking and healing iirc) meaning she is that healer that might just save your unit with a quick heal that a lot of other healers can't. She is not alone in this, but she is an event character which makes her easier to get than, say, Saria.

If you want healing throughput you pick something else, if you want safer healing while you take constant damage, Shiho is great.

Eab1990
01-02-2017, 08:18 AM
Shiho is objectively cuter than Kagura, hence the "infinitely better" part. :P

IIRC, Kagura with skill on still heals faster than AW Shiho, but AW Shiho has both speed and power, so you're still getting 1k+ heals almost twice as fast as any regular healer. Yeah, Saria would beat her out, but that's comparing an event unit to a premium, so that's a given.

And yes, 5/5 Shiho is very worthwhile, especially when SAW lets her switch to permanently heal until the next skill activation.

Edit: Looking at http://millenniumwaraigis.wikia.com/wiki/Attack_Speed, it seems AW Shiho's speed is closer to 38% faster than a regular healer. Kagura is over twice as fast as regular healers and 1.6x faster than AW Shiho, but obviously lacks the attack boost.

kayfabe
01-02-2017, 09:43 AM
The thing with shiho is not her increased atk, it's her permanently increased attack speed.

It's both, since we are talking about her relative to Kagura, who heals 40+ frames faster than even AW Shiho due to her skill. So, yeah, Shiho's power advantage and skill multiplier counts for a lot, because it's part of what makes her better than Kagura as a witch and competitive or better as a healer. Remember, SAW isn't here yet and many people are likely to use shamans mostly as bit players rather than awakening targets.

I'm not happy that I will clearly miss-out on half the gold units but at least I got the ones I was missing so far. If I can get Erun in the short time allowed I suppose I'll be happy.

Gold Rush has been really great, Santa took 2 days, the ninja guy didn't matter to me so he not beign here doesn't bother me that much, he would've been free rainbow crystals tho... Bernice came on the first run, we didn't get Barba and that saddens me, Dorothy took 2 days, Vincent took fucking 4 days, Kerry took 5 runs, the samurai guy is kinda meh to me so i will farm him at the end, once i get all others i want; currently farming for Ginna, and Julius took 2 tries

And the free sacred crystals ofc :D

Just place a heavy last, so Rita will target the heavy instead of the squishier targets. A healer and Ertel should be enough to keep the heavy alive while mages nuke the goblins that try to make it past.
You can also use two healers, but you'll have to remove some of the left side ranged units, and you'll need to find the correct spot to reach the heavy.

Completed all but two maps within release day, in 3-5 runs even) Most problems were with first map (took two additional days' leftover stamina) and Battle of the Warriors (still need the tin can from there). Good thing is my Lynn can take some more CRs so farming that map is not a complete loss)

Just finished golem's map in three turns, actually. Quite a fun one, finally got to use my Cellia's girth to its fullest ;)

Finally got a Shiho drop, so now it's just down to Charlotte and Lynn for event units I don't have yet (the only plats who haven't dropped so far are Maribel and Emilia, both of whom I have with no intention of using (given the presence of AW Bernice, Gellius and Deine, among others). Unlike many here, I'm not too interested in the gold units (the only ones I didn't have coming in were Ryuryu and Erun, and I got the former, latter's map hasn't shown). Oh, and Hien but looks like he's probably a no-show. Then again, unlike many here, I have S. Legend card every month so... yeah, I'll shut up now ;)

Oh btw, is Shiho worth farming if I have AW Yuyu, Belinda, Adele, Despara, Iris, Camilla and Marr? IIRC she's a witch/healer hybrid

We just had this discussion 1-2 pages ago aaaaa

You actually have good healers though, so Shiho isn't as necessary for you. I still use Shiho over Camilla from time to time (because I like my low-cost healers), but having Marr as well makes it harder to justify keeping Shiho around until SAW.

That stone golem has enormous amounts of HP plus hitting for 2400... fuck last map
i mean i killed it with maribel (over2.5k of HP) and 2 healers and she survived just barely; 1 aditional healer and she will have no problem recovering so once i get Ginna i will return to fuck the golem up and get my Barba

Also, regarding my last comment, it seems the maps were just not it the same order and i assumed we skipped them... i stand corrected

JMich

Golem actually hits for 3K, but since it's physical damage, Maribel's defense mitigates quite a bit. But seems like there are quite a few candidates to block it, including the Prince himself.

Blaxer
01-04-2017, 10:59 AM
[...]the Prince himself.

Can you elaborate?
His def is 411.4 with his skill up and beign lv99; i can see that AW'd units buffs def and that includes his (say Katie etc) but how much buffing would be needed for him to survive the first hit? the healing is no problem as i said 3 healers cut it even with no skills up
it should be possible with said units and dancers and the healing but the team needs to be built around the survivability of the prince and leaving little room for other units with other roles
Tanking the golem with the prince would look awesome tbh

Eab1990
01-04-2017, 11:26 AM
Yeah, I'm not seeing how it's possible with Prince. AW Prince, sure, but not our Prince. Even with something like Elyse's defense buff, he doesn't have the HP for it.

You should keep them in mind though.

Regarding that golem i remembered the first unit i ever heared in association with golems when i still was kinda new to the game - being Imelia. My AW Imela with iris and fedora as healers can easily tank the golem and have like 1-1.5k hp left every hit of the golem, she could also take on a bigger one. There are quiet a bunch of units we have on hand that we can throw against that golem already. Being: Pretty much every Plat Bandit even Conrad, all heavys from gold and higher, all the plat samurais and dozens others like Lilia, Dhalia, Elva, Anya, Karma, Rika, Lucille.

this. I tanked it with both imelia , and celia and even bernice. Had 1 awakened healer (camille/iris) and 1 non awakened healer (fedora) and both do it without even using their skills even.


I'd argue that any unit over 2.5k -3k hp can do it with enough healing

01-04-2017, 02:50 PM
Well that was fun going through a lot of my units to figure out who can actually tank it. With Phoenix my Prince and Sybilla both got 1shot, Sophie barely managed to survive but her ability runs out before he's even at 80% health, Bernice managed to tank him the whole way, each shot doing about 85% health, used 3 healers to keep her up.

Got the armour 1st try, only have 1 drop left now, Maribel is already min costed so shouldn't need to touch this one again soon.

Well this event is basically over and I couldn't get the drops from 4 maps (2,5,7,8) I will have stamina maxed for the angel but with less than 24 hours to get her I don't have high hopes. I did get my top priority drops (Ryuryu, Dorothy, Vincent) but not the next on my list (Bernice), 41 MF %&$&@&%^@$%&$& runs and no MOTHER FU!*#$#^&*&#* Valerie.

I should have known RNG was not on my side when I did 10 PS at the beginning of the event and got 3 gold and 7 silver.(Not unreasonable, but a bad start)

But that stone golem was kinda fun figuring out how to kill. Took 3 or 4 tries but I did it.(yea):o

Good luck to all on the last day of farming ;)

Never forget that damage-on-placement mechanics are sneaky deadly on boss maps since it means that any fresh unit you place within range of your tank healers is capable of screwing up the rotation despite being in little to no immediate danger. If you're mildly underleveled you may want to try intentionally limiting the number of units covered by your primary healers and instead use gimmicky shit like warrior priests or a couple tank swaps to weather the trash packs. The most dangerous thing on this map is accidentally diverting a 900+ heal bomb that was intended for your tank. Nothing else even comes close so go ahead and experiment with some goofy looking healer placement.

Why Robert instead of Dorca? Robert is not a good healer, and definitely not a Gold worthy one.

I didn't train Dorca at all. I was a new player who liked Alissa, so I lvl her furst then I got two gold healers around the same time and learned about the rarity in the game so I focused on Robert (mainly for my main team and dude team) and Iris

My healers were probably busy healing someone else since I had those sand worms at the end when the golem arrive

Got all golds except Julius (damn that Black Wave not dropping that last item after 3 days farming!) and the only plats that didn't drop (that I didn't already have) were Rika and Shiho. I can live with that as Julius would just -1CR the one I have, Rika is basically a giant regenerating Sailor and I have another Shaman. So far spent about 6SC so I think thats a decent return all up.

I give up on that damn map. Going to try get Rika, then Shiho in the time left.

Sigh... so when I get home tonight, I'm going to have to go crazy to grab Erun, and honestly I'm not willing to spend SC for the CHANCE to get Charlotte or Lynn (the two plats I didn't have already that haven't dropped for me). Ah well.

Eab1990
01-05-2017, 01:04 PM
Lynn is skippable (unless you're a fan of China dress girls, I guess?), since Gina is perfectly fine and monks are niche already.

Charlotte is mostly skippable if you have Horus, but Charlotte is also way cuter, so...

Granted, I'm also dreading the grind for Charlotte, since she was impossibly difficult to CR during her event, and I only just happened to luck out on a CR the one time she dropped for me. About the only silver lining is that her map here drops plat fairies, so I can try freeing up some space with those...

I'd also like to try for one more Odette, even if I'll never use her (because Solano, Garania, mincost Mehlis, etc.).

And we only have a day for her, which is extra frustrating as her map is quite easy, bah!

Just saw your set up and I have to say that while it's good I don't think you need to go through that kind of trouble. I managed to do it with an all range team with two mages, witches, and archers with no healers (Monica of course being a must). My basic set up was where you have Cyrus and Pallas I had Calliope and Chloris. Beneath Charlotte I had Sasha (any high level mage will do) and Pallas where Monica is. On the extreme left I also had Bashira above and Soma below.

I should say that I have a primarily ranged team so they where all max or close to it with Bashira and Sasha. And while I got lucky with Sasha I am confident any other silver or higher high level mage would do.

Last but not least, while Monica increases Demon Crystal drop does she have to be on the map or just on your current team? The descriptions I read seem to indicate both.

I got lucky with quickly nabbing Erun. I'm even considering keeping and Awakening her seeing how it'll be like a bajillion years before Niel gets small healing. On the other hand I already have AW Sophie so it'd be a tad bit redundant, especially since I have so many high MR units. Still, that'd be an awful lot of global regen and between the two of them I'd have two nasty physical sweepers.

All angels save for Mireno ( http://aigis.gcwiki.info/?%C5%B7%BB%C8%C4%B9%A5%DF%A5%EB%A5%CE ) have the same skill and given the previous discussions here for Erun she is still quite good.

Thankfully I just managed to get Erun myself with the last two stamina points I had and no SC wasted! And even better I just managed to class change Bernice, a gold I have been after since I started playing:D

@HungryHunter

That set up for me was very low maintenance which is why I stuck to it. But you are right, using the same set-up can be quite boring. For me it got so bad while trying to get Shiho that I just clicked on the give-up option if she didn't drop. Efficient? No, but far less time wasting.

Best of luck for Erun and the others. Hopefully no SC were spent, there hard enough to get as it is.

Gold Rushes are always a pain to complete. Whether they are worth your resources to do so is debatable, and it does depend on what you already have. Personally, I'm looking forwards to the next one.

small tweak most people appreciate i think, make stamina and charisma 2x, drop rate 2x except where drops are very common, change the drop amount to 2x. rng streak is worst when percentage is close to 0%

Why do you guys even spent sc for event?
While I only spent a couple (mostly because I would spend them either way for the Legend card for January), I'd say that there were a few gold worth spending a few SC to get (Bernice and Vincent mainly). Even if you spent 5 SC to get them it would be similar to rolling a specific gold you wanted in the premium summons.
Yes, if you do have a ton of gold units mincosted already, there is no need to spend any SC on Gold Rush, but for most freemium players, it might be worth using a few SCs to get specific units.

So didn't last gold rush have extra days at the end? What exactly was the point of them ending it so abruptly, I mean even maint was earlier then normal and its not like there's a new event now... Event drop rate was horrible for me and I only got 6 of the golds, and no useful/new plats, to top it off.

Like I said (I believe in the upcoming events topic), this was a stupid decision. When you factor in the drop rates are sketchy for a lot of people, and more importantly the fact that they cut out THE WEEKEND ONLY WHICH LEAVES NO TIME FOR NEW EVENT, it was a really stupid idea to cut the event here when they SHOULD have just let it play until Monday night and the usual Tuesday reset. Instead? We get boosted XP from Gold+ units, yay... (not to mention we just had less time to get some Gold units...). Chalk up another one for Fail-taku.

@IvanLedah21

While true that it was rather foolish of them, I wouldn't be too harsh. I just did the gold rush on DMM and they as well ended the event on the same day the last map came up (though granted, we probably got a few extra hours due to time differences). Not only that, there were maps that had a 90 charisma and 12 stamina cost which is not worth it for a gold unit in my opinion.

@HungryHunter

That is terrible luck for Erun, you literally had everything to get her. Curse you RNG and timing!

Got Barbatos (http://agentfakku.tumblr.com/post/155472565145/noooooo-i-think-i-had-it-why-god-why-aigis)

3247

but in the last moment, I thought I made it since I had 3 drops on Fallen Angel, it might have been the last thing I need to complete

Why?! Aigis?!

You could try submitting a ticket (if possible, include the image you have there). If the image can be included, it might seal the deal on getting you Erun (of course, even if it does, who knows how long it'd take... >.<)

Erun was the only gold unit I didn't get, and that was because Niel never wanted to drop (I got Emilia 4 times who I didn't care about) -_-

All in all was pretty good Gold Rush, only units I had trouble with were Ryuryu (3 days) and Dorothy (day and a half) other than that most were relatively fast specially Kojuro (2 tries) and Bernice + Vincent (3 tries each)

I only have 6 months worth of play time on Aigis and many of the Gold units featured in the Gold Rush are units I never had. Same goes for the plat units. I did spend SC. I think I spend 3 SC especially at the last day.

Did wish we had more time for the Gold Rush.

I knew the risk of playing right near maintenance time. I was like, should I use my last 2 stamina and risk it? Or don't risk it

I chose to risk it. Maybe, I get in. I almost did it. Dat was the most exciting thing I did It's okay, I'll get Erun someday.

RNJesus didn't really bless me this time around. After a pretty shitty start I managed to get most of the gold's, except for the monk and angel.

I did get a copy of the plat monk, so no real big loss.... But I would have still liked that bedroom copy.... All in all, alright I guess.

I hate how lucky my alt. account was during this gold rush. Got Erun on the SECOND run because the x3 DC decided to drop on my first run and getting the x2 DC was easy the second time around. Took me 10+ tries (from natural stamina regen, lv. 200+ stamina replenishment, and 2 SC refills) just to get Erun on my main account. -_-

Main: 4/10 golds and 4/10 plats
Alt: 7/10 golds (didn't need Julian, Barbie-jii, and Vincent) and 4/10 plats

Well, at least now my alt. is slowly catching up to my main with the addition of Shiho, Odette, Rika, Rita, Bernice, and Erun.

Got every gold apart from 2 and those 2 i skipped because i wasn't interested and wanted extra charlottes/fairies. Or rather, i told sora to skip them because he was taking care of my account while i was on vacation. Skipped the samurai and some other unimportant thing i already had.

Its kinda funny how people are able to complain and call out funny names like fail-taku because the gold rush event did end like gold rush events are suppposed to end after they got more then a whole hand full of golds, 10 free SC and a bunch of plat event units some of them being pretty old ones - all together with 10 new maps, one every day so they have something new to do for 10 days straight without even having to spend anything for it or any great efforts just like this - yeah thats totaly a reason to whine xD want some cheese too?

I only got freaking 5 out of 10 golds and im not whining, heck i got 5 golds and 3 plats as well as 10 SC and entertainment. Some people are realy spoiled.

Your perspective is valid (free units and SC isn't something to complain about, for sure). My issue is twofold:

1) It's a celebration event, not a mid-June or whatever Gold rush, so essentially forcing all but the luckiest people to spend SC for Erun (currently exclusive to this event) at least was a cheap-shot IMO. Yes, spending 5 SC might net you a silver instead in the shrine, but there is no way to get her other than this past event at present, the drop rates were pretty crappy too.

2) Maybe that's how Gold Rushes normally work but... there's no logical reason to cut it off early except to make you feel rushed and have to spend SC.

Side note: The "increased XP for Gold+ units" thing we got over the weekend was not only a whale-inviter, it was spotty as hell. Event-exclusive units apparently included Cyrus (who appears in TP and Shrine), Kerry (Shrine as well), Saki (TP only), etc. Trust me, I compared XP gain from these units with that from Garret, Julian, Stray, etc. And if you're going to argue Kerry appeared in the event, so did Kojuro and he got the boost.

Kerry should have given the full 750 xp at level 1, how much was she giving for you? 250?
Cyrus should have given 1500, no idea why he wasn't counted as one. Only used a Bernice myself, the one I got from Gold Rush, and she did give the proper 3x XP.

Edit: Just checked. Kerry gives the expected 750XP, as does Gina. Julian and Barbastroff give 1500. A CC60 Cyrus gives 1930 while a CC60 Barbastroff gives 2680, which is the 2X you said.

Cleared Total Domination. Only manage to get max 500 once. After that, I kept failing LOL

No idea, how I got max 500, fluke

I was using Shrine-drawn 20s, but Cyrus (same-class bonus for Garania/Sasha) gave WAY less than Kojuro, for example. Think it wasn't Kerry I used after all, but I know TP units got gypped (Saki and Cyrus are both TP units, maybe they decided those readily available units shouldn't get the boost? Didn't have spare Akanes or Spicas to try it on). Themis didn't seem to give the bonus, but maybe I'm wrong about that, I'd have to double-check.

Hm... considering the ones I KNOW I checked are Cyrus and Saki, both TP units, maybe that's it? TP units and obviously the event plats/golds. Meh, I'll have to re-check when I get home. I was pretty annoyed when I bought Saki dupe for CR/SU and it was normal XP lol.

Rule of thumb is that if it gives full RCs when discharging, it will have the XP multiplier. Unsure about Cyrus, but the TP units (Saki, Akane, Spica) should not be benefiting from the multiplier.

Cyrus gives 20 RC (unless a recent patch changed that), but no XP bonus. There was the idea of "farming" RC via Cyrus TP spam but 100 DC per 20 RC is a bad ratio, considering how Stamina heavy that is makes it non-viable without SC or a couple months per 20 RC.
