Thread: The Deadly Sword that Shook the Earth event guide

Good timeofaday, brave Princes! There's thankfully still no stopping our event train so far, but it sure likes to jump the stations) And now we once again skipping ahead over one event to receive another first. Fortunately, this event is a Star Trial, for the our second Swordmaster!
So let's witness The Deadly Sword That Shook The Earth!

Event runs: 2017-03-28 to 2017-04-11

Rewards

This is a Star Trial event. You will obtain event unit after event ends if you scored well enough during it's duration. Unit's level, skill level and cost depends on the number of stars you managed clear event maps for.

Introducing the (Earth) Swordswoman Gloria a Platinum rarity Swordmaster. Her class is defined by their special (Sword) Skills, and Skill that Sandra possesses is "Ougi: Rock-Crushing Sword" "Secret skill: Rock Cleaver", that clears the earth around her from trash (and damages rest heavily). Specifically, upon skill activation she slams her sword into the rock, and raises rock spikes under every enemy in her range, that hits earthbound enemies extra-hard. Do note, that unlike Sandra, Gloria's skill deals physical damage. Outside of her skill, she is a decent, if unremarkable and pricey duelist. Awakening greatly increases her HP (on top of regular gains from extra levels). Skill Awakening, whenever it hits our shores (it is quite recent feature at DMM for her class), gives her permanent x1.5 to defense once (no super-attack for this activation) before switching to her regular skill for the remaining map duration. All in all, Sandra, as all other Swordmasters, exists for her skill, and is as useful as good one can utilize said skill. So her use would require building the strategy around it, and careful timing its activations for most effect, but in exchange it provides quite a shock to a great number at enemies at once. So make sure to get as many skill levels for her as possible!

Comments about the event

This Star Trial so expect some trouble) Still, it should be easier than "Maze of the Demon King" was, so if you cleared that, you should be able to clear this event as well. Of notable thing is return of our favorite fatass Greater Demon and his EQUAL 5000 attack. This time he brought his running shoes, so at the first encounter he will revive when killed and start to speed through your formation. G-tier versionS are running from the get go and has twice as much health to compensate for the lack of revival trick. Tankfully, you don't need to kill them to get 3* clear. Would require some tricky swap or gatekeeper usage tho... Anyway, prepared to receive such rush, either by Immortal Karma, tokens or, if you rolled ranger, traps.

This event is also should be featuring Yurina as both completion reward and a drop on her own featured map, complete with dialogue and all. But as we all know, for us Yurina does not exist, so it is interesting to see how devs would weasel out of the hole they dug themselves in...

On a silver farming front, here's a run-down of possible drops:

• Witch (Naynia) (map 2);
• Samurai (Iroha) (map 3);
• Mage (Pallis) (map 3);
• Soldier (Phyllis) (map 4);
• Bandit (Eunice) (map 4);
• Rogue (Barrad) (map 5);
• Pirate (Giovanni) (map 5);
• Artillery (Percis) (map 5);
• Heavy (Bernard) (map 6):
• Soldier (Assal) (map 7);
• Healer (Christopher) (map 7);
• Valkyrie (Misha) (map 8);
• Archer (Kazuha) (map 9);
• Ninja (Saizo) (map 9);
• Magic Fencer (Ricardo) (map 9).

There's also a Tin Can on maps 4 and 8, and maybe even farmable Platinum - Dark Knight Yurina (debut?!) on map 8.
And quite uniquely, there's a SPIRIT QUEEN famable on map 7!

New Characters Arriving

Note: This is based off of current JP version stats for perfected units.

Platinum Swordmaster: Swordswoman Gloria

->Open Spoiler<-

HP	3254	Range	melee
Atk	678	Block	1
Def	489	Cost	22
MR	0

Skill: Ougi: Rock-Crushing Sword: Instant; attack 1.8x, on top of that x3 against ground enemies; Attack all nearby enemies simultaneously (range ~250) and briefly halt their movement. WT: 15; CT: 30;
Awakened Ability (NI): Endurance Up: +20% HP
Awakened Skill (NI): Hidden Ougi: Solid Rock Transformation Technique: Instant; Defense permanently increases by 1.5x. After use, skill changes to "Ougi: Rock Crushing Sword"; WT: 15; CT: 30.

Black Pegasus Rider: Pegasus Knight Commander Esther

->Open Spoiler<-

HP	2184	Range	melee
Atk	761	Block	1
Def	364	Cost	22
MR	20

Skill: Pegasus Wing: 45s; flight; attacks all nearby targets; AS: 62; WT: 1; CT: 25.
Pre-Awakened Ability: Breeze of Guidance: While in the active team, all allied Pegasus Riders gain +20% skill duration.
Awakened Ability: Wind of Guidance: While in the active team, all allied Pegasus Riders gain +50% skill duration.
Awakened Skill (NI): Heavenly Wings of Destruction: 60s; self: defence -20%; 1.5x attack; flight; attacks everything nearby in a wider area; AS: 62; WT: 5; CT: 35.

* A Black rarity Pegasus Rider who will make your flying blenders blend even longer!) Combined with all the jazz their class have (0-block and all-around AoE on skill use, recovery of UP on kill, increased refund on retreat) it makes for a very powerful ramper (that AoE swing can reap quite a number of UPs in one go as it decimates the swarm of gobs, for example) and gatekeeper. And black level stats support it all nicely)

Viva la Star Break!!!

Thankfully we're not forced to attack those demons at G map. Btw she seems to be ready when paralyzed

copied from my video thread:
example of swordmaster Gloria use: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JzS99TLmoT8

Good work with the early guide! It looks lovely and even better, organized. I just did Gloria's revival on DMM and it shouldn't be to difficult for most people here, though there are a couple of swarm/rush maps that are a little tricky at first.

Also, under "Comments about the event" the last line "...there's a SPIRIT QUEEN famable on map 7!". "Famable" ? I think you meant "farmable" .

I am so glad I am not he only one who noticed this!

You don't? Well damn, i went ahead and killed them on DMM during the revival.

Cute is nice, but fit is sexy.

Love her already.

Gloria - man we get a chiseled babe

my femdom radar is picking up, plz femdom

Battle to Defend the Orphanage map's completion reward is a plat armor and not *redacted for the safety of mortal minds*, such a shame

Fuck Red Army, just saying.

Damn wolf rushes.

Guidance of the Holy Knight drops Spirit Queen instead. Was looking forward to farming that, should have 27 stars tomorrow. Running low on Mages/Witches, so I guess it'll be dailies and those 2 missions.
