Basically what you did was thinking "I guess I'll go for a Rainbow grid" and later you thought "WOW! I can actually clear content! My way of doing things is certainly the best possible one!» Maybe put this way, you'll understand why no one here is taking your words seriously.
You know what a player that truly wants to be at the top does? He looks at what other people do, and then copy the things that actually work and improves what can be improved.
I usually like aiming for an optimized team in this kind of games and tend to be pretty good at it too. What I did when I started playing was asking everyone I could their opinion on a lot of stuff. Eventually I ended up knowing the game enough to make my own opinion and realize a few things people that advised me hadn't.
For example, there's a bunch of things I end up not agreeing with sana's posts or guides, but reading those surely helped me becoming a better player.
I didn't do anything extraordinary, as doing this is the most basic thing to do if you want to reach the highest possible knowledge about a game.
Sadly, you took another route: the "I'll forge my own wobbly knowledge then convince others it's the best one" one.
Another core thing you do when you want to end up better than others in a team building game is Theory crafting. Theory crafting requires some specific skills that I'm lucky enough to have, but hey, how lucky, even if you don't, Sana shared tools that actually allow you to check a decent amount of stuff without needing those skills! I don't use his tools because I prefer doing the calcs myself, but for people who can't, that's like a Godsend! Too bad your ego is so high that you believe relying on others is a proof of weakness. This truly saddens me.
Instead of trying to troll others on their brain capabilities, maybe you should try using yours to begin with.
Yes, you can clear the game's content. Congratulations. Because you convinced yourself you were the best player in the world, you also believe that the only reason you were able to clear that content was only because you are yourself.
You really need to realize that there is a variety of different players. The 2 most important factors are their playtime, and their objective while playing this game. You can either spend absolutely all your AP and BP before it's full, or you can play only twice a day when you log in your computer. You can either aim at being as strong as possible or just play casually to spare time.
You keep making fun of other players on this forum that either:
- Have significantly fewer playtime than you do
- Have no will to eventually end up with an optimized lineup
Sana for example enters both categories, but if sana had the time and the will he would without a doubt be a way stronger player than you are, because he is able to actively think about how to become better in a scientific way rather than guessing something then assuming it's the ultimate truth based on a biased sample size of 1 player.
Of course, rainbow grids have a lot of merits, especially when you first aim at beating mid-game content or when you don't want to think too much about the way to level up your grid nor spend too much time on it.
However, when you want to stand on top like yourself or myself, Rainbow grid is NOT an option. That is a fact you can REALLY EASILY understand by just running a bunch of calcs. I took me 20 minutes of calculations to realize that, while you have been doing things wrong for almost a year now because you're too stubborn to even admit you could be wrong and just calc it yourself.
We have a similar goal in game, and our playtime is probably about the same, but guess what? I have a finished mono grid, Fire precisely, along an advanced Thunder Grid, and I'm also able to solo Raid Rags or clear Tier 4 Acc quests without using Elixirs. Must be pretty shocking to hear, isn't it, someone got on your level doing things in a way that isn't yours after all.
Even better: I started playing Kamipro in the middle of summer. Basically, that means my total playtime is about half of yours, yet I'm able to clear the content you were so proud to clear yourself.
Now imagine not having those 5 extra months of playtime, or going back 5 months ago. Would you have been able to clear Tier 4 back then? I guess not, your Kami are regularly dying even now after all. That is the limit of a rainbow grid and a result of doing things wrong in general.
You built your whole reasoning on the fact that you know a few people that didn't do things your way and ended up getting worse results, too bad you finally met someone who didn't do things your way but actually had as much time and motivation as you do.
Oh, in case you want to retort by saying that I whaled, be aware that I have 3 less SSR Kami than you do.
Ah, by the way, I use D'artagnan with Snatch 2 as an EX skill on the Wind boss, which means my accessory farming potential is actually higher than yours. If I was in your shoes and was convinced I was the best player ever and learnt that someone who started playing 5 months after I did had better farming potential, I would feel extremely humiliated.
So now, if you could please shut the fuck up and let the people that actually have something to say discuss, everyone would be happier. It's pretty tiring to read you saying "Please notice that I exist and acknowledge that I'm better than you" twice a day.
Ah, and you don't need to answer to this, I already know what you will answer, everyone knows, you're just that predictable, so not saying anything will save your and our time. You're most likely going to answer anyways, but whatever.
And sorry to the people who know me to show such an unsightly side of myself, but this idiot was really getting on my nerves.
