Thread: A growing number of questions

1. katie is good. cc her at lvl 50 and get her to lvl 40-50 asap. She is a decent tank for a soldier , and is probably the unit that u won't ever get out of your main team , except for male only maps. She's the unsung hero of aigis , and unless u get jerome , no other soldier is better.
Then u will need 2 cc-ed healers , 2 cc-ed archers , 1 cc heavy armor , 2 witches (cloris and if you're lacking anything else , another silver witch ) , 2 duelists (bandit/princess/valk) , and at least 1 cc-ed Mage. Preferably 2 at minimum , but right now , 1 is enough , for a core army

As for units order , from what you have , i'd go with katie, 1 archer, iris , leanne (or bernice if u got her in the gold rush...if not leanne is decent.) , cloris , second archer ; cypria can work as well as a duelist , but i'd say , raise her to 40 or so , and wait. She's not a cc priority.




2. As for cc-ing , never cc before level 50 because u lose stats. That being said , cc-ed crave is not that big of a deal (well , except for the lost silver) since u can use him on male maps (they don't need very high level units anyway) , and besides that , u will need cc-ed silvers for AWAKENING (which is a second , very expensive class change , that wasn;t introduced yet to our server , but will be soon. Only gold + units can awaken and to awaken them u need either silver fodder that was cc-ed >>> most likely at lvl 30 like you did with your crave <<<< or gold units (that don;t have to be cc-ed). Seeing as soldiers are used in a lot of clas changes , they will probably be very used in awakenings as well , so keeping crave for that , is a good ideea. All around not that big of a loss , except for the fact that u cc-ed a unit that u won't use right now , and will slow down your growth)



3. pretty sure lafate posted a 3star guite to all story missions , with the minimum required units , so u can use that ...or other youtube videos. Keep in mind that lafate will post guides for every new event as well , with youtube videos , so u would do good to check the forum often if u get stuck....or even befoore you try a mission to see what you're going to deal with.



4. First summons were very generous with me (got nanaly which is a black archer on 1 account and camila which is a plat healer on the other) and the fact is , a few strong summons early can make your life a whole lot easier. On the side note , i agree that you're better off waiting untill u can spend enough scs to change your stamp card. The final decision is yours , but i advise u to wait.

5. No ideea. His previous one was rowena tho (an aigis event unit). Personally i like his old one more

just gonna join in the fun.

1) Remember only to class evolve them (we call them CC here in this forum, because it's called class change in JP) when they reach lvl 50! One easy way to do this is to use 3 silver/gold fairies with platinum armors for 8k exp (worth it in the early parts of the game for fast leveling to clear to more efficient maps for farming.) refer to http://millenniumwaraigis.wikia.com/...it_Combination for levels to combine plat armors. Eventually you'll want to class evolve the following: Katie, Bashira, Soma/Daniela, Iris, Alissa, Cloris, Leeanne, Valerie, Calliope, Elaine, Eunice (having one of each class will almost be necessary. almost more or less in that order)

2) I'd suggest keeping crave around for AW fodder, and use him as it is for the time being in male-only maps (wednesday daily, Toast to Men)

3) castle retake is usually done with at least 1 or 2 cc'd units I think. you can refer to strategies on youtube, but the general idea is to have cypria (min 250 atk) assassinate the black armor early on while placing soldiers to generate UP and mage/witch/archer to jam pack the monster spawn point. Also take note that Lich attacks the last unit that was placed down within its range, unless it's blocked. Lich attack priority: Unit blocking it > Unit placed down in reverse order

4) probably next month

5) well yeah it's Horo from Spice & Wolf as Tenhou mentioned

feel free to ask again if you still have questions. The only reason we're all messing around is because FarK is an idiot who refuses to believe us when we tried to convince him otherwise. His ideas are just hilarious to look at. rainbow katie, right. Hope you don't ever make this mistake. feel free to ask at the shoutbox on the frontpage, many of us play aigis and talk about stuff there. Also, at least I'm glad to see you realized FarK's utter stupidity as well, before things go wrong for you

Well, let me start by saying I'm glad for the prompt and helpful responses! And yeah, I figured you guys wouldn't be too harsh. My sample size for the forum's reactions to idiocy was 1, and it included FarK, and even he was making me question his wisdom. When I wasn't wondering what the heck he was even trying to say.

Anyway. My reactions to the answers!

1: Good to know that my desired units for CC are valid! I seem to have a number of those recommended for CC. I also have a few units from gacha, like Sakuya and Mehlis, that I'd like to CC in due time. To soranokira, I do have to say, I'm pleased you recommend Soma. I want Soma to be useful, but since she presently lags behind Bashira quite a bit in attack power I took her out of active service, but it's good to know she gets better. Maybe it's just the sacred first time, but I'm a bit fond of her. Besides, starting out with 30% affection with her and Alissa is not something I want to waste!

2) Good to know Crave is apparently a good mistake to make. And hearing about Awakening seems interesting, though I suspect it'll be some time before I could do that, even if we did have it in English.

3) I see. I'll probably wind up looking up a video - I wouldn't mind doing it by trial and error, but wasting 29 Charsima for each failure is a high cost. That's something I don't like about this game, failures are fairly punishing...

4) Well, to answer Lafate, box expansions are certainly on my wishlist, but I don't have much of a pressing need for them so that's a bit of a ways off. Despite my love of collecting and my dislike of letting go of units I grow attached to, I've been pretty good about inventory management this game...

5) Oh? Perhaps yet another reason to see it. Though that gif looks so sinister...

as samurai go , sakuya is probably the best samurai we have in the game. Increase attack 4 makes her do a lot of damage , and her aff skill gives damage as well , so it's good. The problem with samurais is their costs , compared to what they are supposed to do : they look like anti zerg/rush units that would be able to clear big mobs fast because they attack multiple units at once , but their costs means they can't be deployed really early when most weaker monsters swarm. They are too expensive to actually be deployed on a map too early, and are at most a niche class. On the bright side , Awakening makes them all quite a bit better

Mehlis is the best gold mage by virtue of being a female unit and therefore being easier to max aff her. Also decent skill. Probably the best out of the 3 goldies.


Bashira is a powerfull archer , and it's worth cc-ing asap. Soma might be usefull since u will need 2 cc archers and 2 cc-ed healers to be able to farm the demon cristals dailis on H dificulty. When u have 200 DCs , buy a spica , and between bashira and spica , u will have very good ranged physical offensive.

While summon could potentially give you something nice. It can also give you nothing at all. Not to mention that it isn't a maybe. You will need to space later.

I'd suggest either spending 13 or so SC to speed up your leveling process (Damage reduction buff, melee attack power buff, range attack power buff, and +5 UP start, Then after having Dragon Hunting on commission getting Gold and Exp Boost). Then spending the rest of slot expansion

or

If you don't mind catching up slows just going slot expansion then second barracks and be done with it.

Hell I've seen some poeple that had their first, second, and third barracks in addition to their gift second filled with stuff.

@lolix it was my understanding that shizuka is better due to being able to sustain herself better. still, havent got any samurai and dont really intend to use them even if I did. Also, AW does not exactly make them better that much. tanking 3 and attacking 3 is still rather meh. what makes them better is skill AW, but then again that actually changes their role completely, from anti-swarm to duelists for the most part.

@malus:
1) The main reason I suggested soma is because she starts off with that 30% affection. overall, her stats at the end will lose to daniela, but in MOST situations you're unlikely to need 2 silver archers; most players go with bashira + spica (obtainable from trading post), and only daniela/soma when a 3rd archer may be needed, which is almost never so far. and considering you have bashira, you can go with bashira for the dmg archer, and soma for slightly longer range (which would, in theory, cover more ground than bashira + daniela's higher dmg skill).
^ if above is too confusing, it is faster to max out soma at the start (30% aff advantage), so level soma over daniela is fine.

2) I wouldnt say it's a good mistake, but it's just not critical enough to destroy you, so to say.

3) well, that's mostly what players in jp have to do: trial and error. since they don't have a guide like us to follow. but certain maps are just harder and we often are just lazy and will refer to videos to get a rough idea how to pass.

4) actually, you'll eventually need the box expansion, especially to store up silver units for CC fodder, and fairies for leveling fodder, and stuff like that. especially the recent gold rush, most players who chose to keep iron/copper/silver fairies to level up units during the next Unit Farm event probably stocked like over 40 fairies. I myself only managed 20 due to lack of inventory, but I'm trying to balance spending on box expansion vs keeping SCs for events.

5) spice & wolf is a rather slice & life-ish anime.

Mehlis is a good mage to have, while Sakuya should be left alone until your core team is done, IMO.

edit: just noticed lafate's post. I have a different take on things: Return to Ruins (RtR) is great for exp, and if you're a newbie with the free 20d gold buff, you shouldn't be too hard up on gold. I myself cycled between RtR and Deep Forest Road (commission sorties) when I started in DMM aigis not long ago. You can consider using SCs to speed up leveling, but I might suggest to do so after reaching rank 101 or when the next event starts. now that we have no events in aigis, you shouldnt need to rush to bring your units up to a satisfactory standard.

I agree with sora. No point in spending scs for buffs. It will be a slower pace , but scs aren't that easy to get if you're not willing to pay for them. Keep them for events/a good batch of premium summons and hope to get 1-2 good units to build a core team. Then again , that's just my opinion
