Thread: The Summon Beast in the Earth Guide

Is there any event after this with a similar difficulty as Solano's in the near future if we follow DMM's event timeline? I could only 32-star this one (without buffs), so i wanna be better prepared for the next difficulty spike.

I know both Charlotte and Yurina are easy events as i have played their revivals in DMM.

The one that I clearly recall is Paula's (Platinum Bishop) event. The final mission has the Maou boss who deals about 2k damage. It doesn't seem high at first, but when his health falls below 50% HP he will be able to attack from a distance and he can attack faster. He also has extremely high health so high DPS is needed if you want to kill him during the duration of a tank's buff. The other thing about this specific mission is that 2 shadow clones of him will spawn, who are slightly weaker than him but has the same properties. When all 3 are together, it is nearly impossible to tank all 3 of them at the same time. I've had an AW42 Jelius die (5/5 skill used) instantly when I wanted him to tank all 3 of them.

I want to say more, but then I'll spoil the difficulty even further. It's better to experience it yourself just like how people liked Sorano's event after experiencing it. It took me a lot of SC and many tries before I was able to get a 3-star clear.

Well, just quickly glancing at the last stage, that certainly looks very scary and difficult. Around one year from now on though (though Nutaku likes skipping events and follow their own random order), hopefully that's enough time to prepare.

The loliness of Paula has me really worried if Nutaku is even gonna get her event though. Hopefully she gets a free pass like Shiho.

Are people really having that hard of a time keeping up with events?

Even for Solano's event, which was really hard and took several retries, I had 32/36 stars within three or four days, leaving me the rest of the two weeks to do whatever I wanted. I've been spending it on her event to farm silvers for CC and using spare charisma to get fodder for leveling from story maps, but I could just as easily farm money or affection items or whatever else. With a ton of time to spare.

And I saw crystals come up. I'm a free player. I had 59 stocked up and nothing to do with them. Even though I had been using some on the tail end of the last few events to make sure I could cost limit Shiho and Lynn and get to a reasonable point for Len's boosts. That's not hard either.

We really don't need breaks. There's absolutely no reason. Not even for a week. There's an event going on RIGHT NOW and I'm already bored because I've finished it with more than a week left.

point being, what about affection? if you've really managed to full aff Lynn, Len and shiho, then good for you, but not everyone is that lucky. and what about those newbies still too weak to do solano even though they're about 2 months old? and fyi, I spent 9 SCs, which got me about 18 Lynns, and I STILL couldnt max CR her. you being able to max CR Lynn can be said to be luck in itself.

Edit: and well, http://millenniumwaraigis.wikia.com/wiki/Event_Missions pretty much have people mentioning how brutal it is to start late in DMM aigis thanks to the back-to-back, and even 2 months in may not be able to get a solid team up and running for events. Hence my opinion that back-to-back isn't such a great idea. but *shrugs* it's also true that people will manage somehow, or just have to suck it up and fail events. Nobody will die, but it doesn't hurt to request for breaks.
For one thing, I'm actually perfectly fine with things if charisma can be used to farm stuff other than unit exp, and heard from charles that it's pretty much what subjugation is, so I'm hoping such stuff comes soon, and back-to-back is not an issue if the events in between are revivals, but if they're new...meh. and from what I can tell, at least the most recent jp event has a 1-2 day break in between (event ended 12/11, next event start 14/11)

'I want to full affection everything!' and 'I was unlucky!' are even less effective arguments than were raised earlier in the thread.
Going off a few comments of people complaining will give you a false representation of the game, after all people will sooner rush to complain than they will to praise something. The only way to really know what it's like to play DMM is to go and play it. Also there's no break, just like every other event.

The event has already started in DMM with no break. You're confusing it with the platinum puppeteer revival event, which starts at 14/11 and will run together with the event that has started for two days only.

ah ic, my mistake. I only skimmed through. thanks for the clarification.

what i dont get is why the hell our server has to mirror the japanese one ? They already did that and failed in PPS> literally 80% of the players that are on a day to day basis on this forum left the game because of a series of issues , with burnout after back to back events being one of the most important. In japan that is not an issue. It is here tho. Noot everything has to fit the original. Also , we don't want to max aff everything , but as a player with 2 accouns , 1 over 140 and a second one over 130 (that i made 2-3 weeks before the odette event) , both strong enough to get a perfect solano (so i invested a bit of time in them...just a bit ) , i can honestly tell you that even tho my second have way better units , including either better offense , like nanaly , or better gfarm units like cellia , most of my core team is not max affed. As i said , CORE team , simply becasue nutaku started releasing event after event after odette.

You'll get your breaks in the form of 1.5x drop rate on dailies/1.5 story drop rates/2x awaking orb drop rate events. These usually happen every ~2 months(so roughly 4-6 events in between them). If you're not a regular spender these events are a much better crystal investment for catching up your team than doing the gatcha. They usually do have revivals running at the same time so you'll still have to make a choice if you want to farm an old unit or revival crystals though.
