Thread: The Dark Guild's Servant event guide

Good timeofaday, brave Princes! It is that time of the week, and so we are looking forward to the new event. And after the weeks of Unit Farming, it is a high time for a Star Trial, and once more for a new class.
So let's warmly welcome The Dark Guild's Servant!

Event runs: 2017-10-03 to 2017-10-17

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 cumulative number of stars you managed clear event maps for.

Star of the show:

Introducing the Servant Irene a Platinum rarity Maid. Her Special class is basically there to provide a passive buff for specific classes and tokenize them. In Irene' case, said classes are Outlaws: Bandits and Rogues. By her mere presence in the team, Bandits will have 7% more health, and Rogues will have +20% longer Skill duration. Irene's own Skill doubles her attack and defense for the duration, making her a semi-decent duelist, but as her raw stats are on the lower side, it is pretty risky to use her as one full-time. Still, for full Maid service - tokenization of goshujin-samas affected classes - you need to deploy her, that's at least something. Awakening widens Irene's coverage to Pirates (they get +5% attack) and Thieves (cost -1). Skill Awakening gives her ranged attack in exchange of lowering multipliers to x1.9 and increasing reuse timer. Second Awakening sends he on the path of Battle Maid, for lower cost and vastly higher attack, but lower HP and defence.
All in all, a good stat stick if you have a free slot in your team, and later on a semi-decent support fire. But nothing all that amazing on her own. She is only as valuable as your roster of Bandits and Pirates she buffs.

And while she is not an event reward, she's new, so

Introducing the Bowrider Katina a Platinum rarity, well, Bowrider. As all other mounted archers, she is a melee slot fire support that refunds more UP when withdrawn per usual cavalry bonus, and has halved attack if she blocks anything. Her skill is usual Increase Range we all know and love. Awakening gives her a good class buff for Bowriders, not only increasing their attack, but extending their Skill durations as well. Skill Awakening, aptly named Arrow Rain, trades a bit of a range increase and attack speed (and longer reuse timer) for attacking up to 7 targets in her range at the same time. Oh and SAW makes her lose block, so there's that gatekeeping ability as well.
All in all, pretty decent melee ranger with that SAW.

Comments about the event

Star Break, in it's full glory! There's a lot of Outlaw classes running around, and, notably, new Assassins are quite deadly, dealing double the damage (after armor subtraction) normal enemies with their attack rating would. So you want to pack a lot of burst to burn them down asap. Pirates have a huge range, so be careful with your placement around them. Minotaur is beefy and packs a punch as well. And finally there's a duo of our event Heavies stomping around in the last 70/6, with their Skills active, so their blows can end unprepared melee. Especially Miranda, that jet hammer is golem-worthy. Thankfully, not a lot of MR all around. So pack your favorite damage dealers, a good tank and healer team, and let em rip!)

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

• Soldier (Assal) (map 2);
• Rogue (Cecily) (map 3);
• Archer (Daniela) (map 3);
• Samurai (Sanosuke) (map 4);
• Witch (Naynia) (map 4);
• Mage (Pallis) (map 5);
• Magic Swordsman (Ricardo) (map 5);
• Bandit (Mortimer) (map 6);
• Ninja (Saizo) (map 7);
• Artillerist (Percis) (map 7);
• Valkyrie (Elaine) (map 8);
• Bishop (Fudo) (map 8);
• Pirate (Verotte) (map 8);
• Heavy Infantry (Bernard) (map 9).

There's also a tincan at map 4, and not one, not two, but three farmable Platinum rarity units: Archer Rita at map 5 and H.I. Maribel AND H.I Miranda at map 9! So if you missed their events, now is your chance to score!
