Thread: Mono vs. Rainbow Grid

Water: 2 Assault, 1 Defender
Wind: 2 Assault, 2 Defender
Thunder: 2 Assault, 3 Defender
Darkness: 3 Assault, 2 Defender
Light: 2 Assault

(5 + 3 + 4 + 5 + 5 + 2)/6 = 4 per element. Out of which half is Defender weapons. Three years is what it'll take before you'll be at a good spot for every Element as a rainbowgrid user.

So you have about four SSRs per Element. And? I've been playing since Crom's Crotch, so I've missed out on several SSR weapons. Yet, my Water monogrid is at 94%. Even if you had focused solely on SSRs and gotten ALL your SSRs to slvl20, my Water still is... 94-16-16-23... 39% ahead of your Water. Ignoring Light, my worst element Wind is at 73%, which is still 9% above your current maximum! When counting Pride as 16% that is, which isn't technically correct, but saying that it's 10% doesn't do the amazing Pride weapons justice. Anyway, at this point, your rainbow team MIGHT actually be better than my Wind, just because I've largely ignored investing in mine.

I've been playing the game for seven months, which is obviously months less than you have. And I seem to be losing in one Element, absolutely CRUSHING you in one, and doing slightly better than you in three? If we include Light, we can say losing in two Elements, but Light has had a whopping two events so far. Has anyone invested in Light? Maybe some who have pulled several Light SSRs, I guess. Anyway.

Where is your advantage again...?

Actually, I started my current account during the Jorm event. So at most it's about a month older than yours. And you haven't missed out on several weapons. At most, you've missed out on Jorm, Sandalphon, Crom, maybe Quetz, and either Phoenix OR Apoc. If you slacked off. And 3 of those were defenders, so like other mono grid users, you probably would have skipped them anyway. Or used them as fodder.

If you missed anything else besides those, it was a choice to do so.

I also like how you just throw out assault bonuses without mentioning what your attack stats even are. 160% assault on top of garbage attack is still garbage.

All of my teams have about 50k atk and deal around 30k per auto, per unit, with -40% defense. They also average around 10k HP with 40/20 + 40% element atk. Which is more than enough to AAB most (if not all) of all content we have had, and manually farm events at a quick pace.

And this is my advantage.
