Thread: Amaterasu top tier? draw or no draw~

Well, D'art wouldn't stack there as her debuff is B-frame, same as Amaterasu's. But that aside, Dark Amon/Amaterasu/Yamata-no-Orochi adds up to 57% defense debuff. The effective cap's 50%. Tyr/Amaterasu/Yamata-no-Orochi would be under the cap at 42% though.

wouldn't brynhildr be better than ama cuz of the up to double atk rate
or is the ++++ def from ama more useful for boss fights

If you have both, you'd use both. Brynhildr's heal is better as a primary source of healing, while Amaterasu's works great as a secondary. Outside of healing, they don't overlap in what they offer. And healing is one of the things that you can get away with doubling up on.

In a vacuum, we can get a rough idea of a defense buff's value from looking at the damage formula, but combo attack buffs/debuffs have not been nailed down. Wiki cites Amaterasu's def buff as A-frame +30%. That's really nice, when defense's involvement in the damage formula looks to be (product of attack stuff multiplied together) / (defense +/- buffs and debuffs). If there are no other modifiers to defense involved, throwing on that +30% changes damage from (attack_product)/1 to (attack_product)/1.3, which is basically reducing damage by a quarter. A nice, big defense buff is one of the handy tools you have to reduce boss attacks from whatever gaudy numbers they originally have to far more manageable levels.

another 3k jewels, trying to get Amaterasu, but instead got Hecatonchires... Considering i already have Michael and Sol, game really wants me to forget fire and stick to light, huh... Oh well, no Ama for me i guess =_=

RNGesus say u sonawagreedybytch take this instead, u aint gonna take all 3 top tier hime~ (that's eido right?~ booohoo)

Decided to give this KH a shot, ended up extending my vast army of "every element" with Belobog and Hestia. Meh.

Question: I'm confused about this obtain SSR weapon to release SSR Kamihime thing. Let's take Amaterasu as an example. When the event came out, I found the description "Obtain Yata no Kagami to Release Amaterasu" to be very vague. So, do I need to get her weapon first before I can get her? (Judging by the "Release" word) If yes, where can I get the weapon from? By rolling the gacha or getting it from the current event?
Or, ignore the whole getting the weapon thing and I can get Amaterasu straight away by rolling the gacha? But, then again, am I able to use Amaterasu in battle without Yata no Kagami or she has to equip it to be of use? Lastly, I know the current Garuda event has already ended but the next event haven't started so that's why I'm asking this, can I still draw Amaterasu with higher drop rate? I'm asking all these questions because I don't wanna end up wasting 3000 jewels and finding out that I actually need both the weapon and the Kamihime to work. And yes, I'm aware about that goddamn 3% drop rate for SSR. Well, most probably gonna end up rerolling like you guys

This game's system is pretty confusing and the tutorial didn't explain everything which makes it difficult for new players to get accustomed to. Added to the fact that it's not easy switching between menus (game has to load every damn time). IIRC when I wanted to check Kamihime's stats I had to browse through many pages and that is annoying. Speaking of stats, I've tried looking for information on the wiki but, nothing much except pictures. So, I would also like to ask what Kamihimes are worth aiming for? I only know Amaterasu is really good.

By getting Yata no Kagami you get Amaterasu. All kamihimes are linked to some weapon and by getting that weapon you get kamihime. You can't get one without other. And you get SSR (at 3%) from jewel or premium gacha. About rate up: click odds when viewing gacha and you will see. But it seems like it is still increased. Also don't get your hopes up that with 3k jewels you will get any SSR. Increased rate =/= guaranteed.
Yeah loading times suck, even if you avoid back button with has the longest loading time. From what I heard the top tier kami's are Sol, Amaterasu and... Micheal? If you care about stats then look at the japanse wiki. Google translator will kinda help you.

Thank you for the answer. That helped clear up the confusion I was having previously. Yeah, I know the chances of getting a SSR is very slim. That's why I might probably be rerolling like you guys. Just wanna try rolling on my main account before considering making another alt. Also, just had a look at the Japanese wiki. They only provide stats for 2 SSR and 1 SR only. The rest are left blank.
