Thread: Accessory Quests

The accessory shop doesn't restock weekly so you should buy the ones you want as you should have more than enough if you play regularly. I would assume they restock every month, or at least I hope it restock at all. I've been able to get enough acc p to buy 3 SSR accs.

As for what I actually get, I honestly just use anything that's SSR and any SR with atk↑. It is extremely unlikely that I'll ever find a SSR acc with x3 atk↑ let enough for all the needed himes and whatever other combinations. So if it has at least 1 atk↑, that's good enough for me. Although anything outside of my light team, I don't even bother to use SR or lower accessories.

And here I thought it'd restock daily. Shit.

Complaining always helps.

Although the store-bought SSR had garbage on it, today's Water run provided me with not one, not two, but THREE atk+ Rs. Fuck yeah. About fucking time. Was going to enhance all of those to 30, buuut... then I found a SR with Affliction+ and double+. Doesn't get much better than that, so focused on that instead.

Ryu-Oh finally hit 6% Affliction and has a bonus of 2% double attacks. Nice.

Even if it restocked daily, you can't really buy things from there very often with the 2500 point/week cap. It's mostly a "oh crap I'm missing one SR fodder for element X" store.

Don't get too excited. An R with ATK+ is barely better than an SR equivalent with no useful stat on it at all. Most of them will have at least one stat that is marginally useful.

I found today that with 3x maxed affliction rate up and Mordred's affliction resist down, ATK/DEF debuffs will still occasionally miss on same-element. It's pretty rare and seems about as likely as affliction resist down missing. Which is good news, since even if affliction resist down misses you still have a good chance to land the others.

Is it? I find that odd since the stat increase from R to SR is really small. I guess the impact from the skill is very small then (outside of Affliction+).
I know there is a calculator for it, but I haven't bothered to toy around with it yet.

Either way, Rs are extremely cheap to enhance. Getting at least the first four Hime per element geared up in basic Accessories should be well cost-productive. Especially since even remotely useful SRs are so bloody hard to come across.

Getting an SR to the same level as an R takes exactly the same amount of resources.

And yes, I have a tool that allows you to compare the effect of accessories on damage and endurance. Remember that ATK+ is only 3%, and since it's character attack it's only worth about 1.35% damage per buff. A full loadout of SSRs with 3x ATK+ each (9x total) will only increase damage by 24% (including the effects on base ATK rating), and only for that character. The benefits are much more meager than people tend to realize. Compare to affliction rate up, which can have substantial team-wide effects with even 3 buffs on a single character.

True. And that would yield 2% compared to 3%, probably mostly covered by the base stat difference. However, you're then stuck with an Accessory you can never again enhance - not without an absolutely ridiculous Gem cost. Not that you need to since the performance is already roughly the same, but... whose autism will allow a non-max level item?

24% is absolutely insanely huge, though. We're talking P2W Eidolon level of increase.

... of course, not only that Belial and friends are team-wide, but you're also basically never going to find even a single triple Atk+ SSR. Much less three. Even less ones for the whole team. Not that you'd even want to use them over Affliction+ Accessories on your debuffers.

But still, let's not call 24% as "only." You put that on the carry of your team - best case SSR Cybele - and your team is a now a monster.

I haven't seen a single affliction rate up acc drop. Lots of affliction resist.

Has there been any testing on the double attack rate modifier? If its +2% to base double attack rate that sounds like it could be quite useful, but if its x1.02 then that's pretty garbage (i'm betting the latter unfortunately...)

Also I assume the +% attack is calculated the same as weapon skill attack%, and not multiplicative, anyone know for certain?

Right. So I was in the "oh crap I'm missing two fodder for element x" moment.

Tried out Shingen in wind today and was impressed. I used Hercules' Raging Assault for burst rate up, along with the usual team of Amaterasu, Brynhildr, Motu, Dark Amon. My prime concern was being able to get past the first stage without injuries and stun the boss before she overdrived, both of which I did with Hercules Full Break in other attempts.

Shingen being able to burst early in the first stage completely made up for the loss of Full Break damage, and full burst stunned the boss without issue. She also cut off several turns in the second & third stages. Runs today with Apocalypse were faster than previous runs with Belial; I'm sold.
