Re: Aegis Thousand Year War - DMM Online Game

Could add so many new threats to events

All they need to add is instant-kill alignment to black goblin archers and we can all roll over and pretend to be dead.

AW Victorias to the rescue? But yeah, that'd be sick.

edit: actually, shouldn't it be Bashira? Now that I think about it Victoria targets magic users.

Platinum Archer Spica (200)

And also free Crystal is always welcome.

Re: Aegis Thousand Year War - DMM Online Game

Finally, a break from events adding more and more new units.

So, how "good" can Spica be considered for those 200 magic crystals?
I've heard her name here a couple of times, meaning she's a popular character, but I already have Bashira as one of my main archers ( unCC'd lvl30...).
Getting more units to level is not exactly what I want for now.

Also, not much to say about the new gunner; though, I expect she's gonna have a lot of attack at higher levels.

Spica was a reward for players who got 3-stars and all completion rewards for Gold Rush 2. She's an extremely strong archer (her stat growth is the same as Nanaly, though she doesn't have the same affection bonus or the 10 extra levels) that costs the same as a gold archer to deploy. Her main strength that makes her better than every other archer is her attack speed; Spica is designed to kill rushes of weak enemy units quickly and efficiently, and her high attack means she's relevant even when a heavily armoured opponent shows up. Awakening-wise, Spica has the best awakened ability if you also use other archers (5% bonus to all archer's attack if Spica is in your party will make your platinum sniper Bashira better than a moderately leveled awakened Bashira).

If you're planning to maximise the potential of your archers in the future, then you will want Spica.

Re: Aegis Thousand Year War - DMM Online Game

We curently have Event that increase chance of getting FEMALE UNIT

and i roll 5 Crystals gatcha two times and got 2 SILVER MALE UNITS.

Re: Aegis Thousand Year War - DMM Online Game

@Petite
I also didn't noticed the duration of her skill even at lv1.

Thanks for the info Petite. I read on the wiki about her being faster like you mentioned, but the machine translation confuses me; it says something like "before CC".
Does this means that after CC (or AW, I'm not sure) she is slower?

Re: Aegis Thousand Year War - DMM Online Game

Spica for 200 gems ... that is terrible news. I could live with not max-cost reducing Sedis, but for unit 'designed to kill early rushes' max cost reduce is so much needed... Must... resist... the ... farmer.... urge.

Most people here should be aware of this, but Spica has the same skill (excellent arrow) as the silver elf archer, so he can be used to skill her up.

Re: Aegis Thousand Year War - DMM Online Game

Spica's great even without cost reduction, Unless your gonna forego Awakening for a long time I wouldn't bother aside from maybe your first free one.

Re: Aegis Thousand Year War - DMM Online Game

Holy Fuck Spica. I calculated her worth before and she was good enough even without cost reduction, so that she can get some now, hngggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggg. I didn't think it'd ever happen. I hope I can pull off enough red crystals for her and the AW fairy I need for Iris before this week is over. I already have some skill up on her from the silver male archers, but even getting -1 cost on her would help so much. 200 is extremely high just for cost reduction though. I remember how difficult the healer was to deal with, so I'm still debating on it.

Well Iris needs to come first. As much as I love Spica, I really need more awakened units. Oh new Plat Gunner is awesome at farming Red Gem maps btw, perfect against the highly magic resistant jellies. She'd be great against all the magic resistant undead as well. Really nice to finally give us a way to deal with swarms of magic resistant enemies.

Re: Aegis Thousand Year War - DMM Online Game

About red gem daily.

Which map is the best map for farming Red Gems ?

 

[Dragonpaladin]

Re: Aegis Thousand Year War - DMM Online Game

Red gem wise, Tuesday.

swarms of magic resistant enemies.

But I have AW Shizuka. Hence, let me fix the above -> a ranged solution to swarms of magic resistant enemies.

Attack Speeds (number of attacks per second):
Archer: 1.07
Archer Loren: 1.15
Archer Spica: 1.25
Sniper/Artemis (includes Loren): 0.97
Sniper Spica: 1.03
Artemis Spica: ?*

I have Artemis Spica, and she does seem like she attacks much quicker than my Sniper Nanaly, but I might be attributing it to the fact that Artemis class characters don't stall when an enemy dies; instead, they will immediately switch to their next target (confirmed for Victoria and Spica).

Finally, Spica can only be cost reduced by -2. I'm still trying to find out if the first cost reduction has a chance of failing similar to a character going from -1>-2, or if it has the same chance of a regular silver+ character going from 0>-1. If it's the former, then I can safely save my 150 magic crystals for awakening fairies.

Though, like tenshiryu said, Spica is still great at cost 14. The only time her cost was a problem was during the Minerva Awakening Map due to the fact that she doesn't contribute as much as a silver sniper could for a specific hit-and-run role. But for maps like Undead Monsters, Spica basically means you can just deploy her (cost 14) instead of deploying a silver sniper and Prince (cost 19-22) to achieve the same result. Not having to deploy the Prince early means you can instead easily deploy your valkyries and reinforcement soldiers to prepare yourself for the rest of the map.

So far on 3 runs of the 60/6 fairy mission.

Not shabby at all!

Also 3 Premium Gacha draws
1) Uzume
2) Gold Monk
3) the new plat healer chick that reduces terrain afflictions.

Re: Aegis Thousand Year War - DMM Online Game

Hey guys, now that we are approaching a point where AW units are the new CC, and silver units can't be AW, should I stop caring for those? I had some extra copies of some silver units I have CC'd, but I think they're gonna be replaced sooner rather than later.
I've already ditched all but 2 silver units in my main squad, and I'm starting to think cost reducing Nenya to minimum is a real waste now...

Btw, Janna is <3. She reminds me something between Valkyria Chronicles, KanColle and an anime whose name I can't remember.

Re: Aegis Thousand Year War - DMM Online Game

So the speed reduction is normal with archers.
Well, thanks again for the replies, time to farm crystals~

Silvers will always be needed because of their low cost I think, at least for free players. Gold units are awkward because they're extremely difficult to obtain and cost reduce/skill up. Like me for example, I have all these gold units I don't use because my silvers are nearly as strong and much more cost efficient than my golds. For people who can afford to max cost reduce gold units however, silvers might not really be needed much soon. I doubt people who gacha often can afford to straight up ditch all silvers because of certain maps though (At least for now)

I do agree that silvers are seriously being faded out though, I haven't worked on one in a long time. Got my silver witch, healer, archer that I still use regularly because of their low cost, but all my others are just wasting away now in my box. It's kind of sad. Occasionally I might need Rean or Vallerie or something but that's it. I can't imagine I'll be able to improve my golds any time within the next year enough to fade silvers out completely as a free player though.

Silver units are still relevant, but you're probably not going to rely on them as much as you used to.

The awakening maps are extremely difficult without a large variety of cost-reduced silver units. Usually you would deploy a gold-black unit, and they will stick around long enough to make their cost worthwhile, but these maps rely on you deploying a cheap unit to gank something nasty before making a hasty retreat. Since you're a free player, it's unlikely that you have a lot of 2~3 cost-reduced gold-platinum units that you didn't receive from an event (i.e. Ling, Ada, etc.).

I don't think cost-reducing Nenya was a decision you will regret. If you want to do Great Magical War, you will need a lord witch Nenya, and two other lord witches (total cost 39). If you have a max cost-reduced Nenya, then you can afford to have one or two of the other lord witches be higher tier ones that have a higher cost (I couldn't 2-star the map with a 12 Nenya, 12 Calliope, and a 16 Adelle; I had to use a 12 Nenya, 12 Calliope, and 14 Belinda). Also, having a cheap-to-deploy lord witch is extremely useful for getting 3-stars on the Minerva awakening map.

Re: Aegis Thousand Year War - DMM Online Game

Misha is currently a tier 1 unit, best available in game for her role. Max cost reduced Archers and Witches should have their uses from time to time. Other silver units however will have rather niche roles, provided you can get better rarity replacement from events.

Occasionally maybe there will be a map with sortie so limited you will want to get back to them. They are however just too weak for increasing difficulty of maps. I remember I tried to use non-CCed Phyllis on one of the Two Holy Women maps and she couldn't even handle few black goblins.
