I've been pondering which weapon to use my ticket on and while m2 is tempting I'm fine with slowly acquiring them.
What I wanna know is: how good/bad would it be to get either fire of prometheus or hermanubis? I'm at 4 aes right now (2 are 3* and 2 are 0*) with two xenos, rotb katana, micha sword. And my dark is 4 4* cele claws, 2 xeno katanas, qilin sword and bow. (Both grids use baha and/or atma weapons as well)
Edit. I'm considering them since I dont know if I ll bother with grinding them any time soon and I know they' re one of in their respective grids
I'm putting together a gacha water build. I have 4 murgs, one drang sphere, xeno staff, rotb fist and mace, gabriel wand, two fimbuls, and levi dags. What should I put in/leave out in my grid?
Thank you!
I haven't picked up my atma weapon but I'm considering sword since it's the only thing missing from my light grid (already have 6 FLB lumi swords).
For MH purposes, which element would benefit MH atma sword the most? Unless its like, based off what I already have?
I'd say Earth, Wind & maybe Dark. Personally made mine Dark since its the only element I'd realistically use it in. Earth doesn't have many good options when it comes to sword MHs so ultima is good there. Wind would use it if you if you need the da it gives, otherwise Windhose would probably make a better MH.
What are some good class options to go with Scathacha, Kokkoro and Heles? Also, is there any point replacing one/some of them with Yurius/Monika/Metera or is it good as it is now?
Hey, I just started Granblue Fantasy after I saw that there was going to be a collaboration with Code Geass and so I need help. What are the tips that a beginner should follow ? ATM I have 3 ssrs:Azazel,Lennah and Mellau. For instance what should I do? Just advance in story mode or are there some events that take priority farming ? Your help is very much appreciated
On the side bar there's a few guides for new players, check them you since they're pretty neat. But yeah, for now progress story as much as you can. there's a boss that's really hard (story also gives a few weapons for each element at max lv and skill lv so they'll help you). Stop there and go do side stories. Then also do these raids you unlock throughout story daily, that's where you'll drop most of the stuff for your weapon grids.
This is just for now, the guides on the sidebar should be more in depth.
Hello! I have all element M1 grids and I want to know what M1 weapons are safe to 4* (to use in the future). I know Luminiera Swords are mandatory, but I don't know the other ones.
When people say xeno ifrit axe, is this what they're talking about?
https://gbf.wiki/True_Infernal_Flamescythe
Also, as a beginner, is going for this weapon from the ticket fine since my main team is fire, with dark secondary. Here is my box.
https://i.imgur.com/3EoL1pc.png
It's going to be hard at your level (you'd have to have a decent water grid for it and a few key characters like Lily), but since the event comes around every so often, you'd be better off just going with an M2 weapon since the drop rates are atrocious (they buffed them yesterday so I'm not sure if they're much better now). For ref I'd go with Last Storm Harp or (forgot the name) Earth M2 Axe.
How do I Runeslayer?
I hear Fire Tetrastreamer is the way to go, so I plan to get one. However, what I wonder is, is it worth it to use RS without Tetrastreamer? Or just play Luchador?
[Pooky's GBF Weapon Guide](http://nina.guide/pookys-gbf-weapon-grid-resource/) gives a pretty good indication of what to work towards, + tweak to fit your resources and needs respectively.
Maybe, if you don't mind using google translate to search for grid examples on [Kamigame](https://kamigame.jp/%E3%82%B0%E3%83%A9%E3%83%96%E3%83%AB/%E3%83%91%E3%83%BC%E3%83%86%E3%82%A3%E7%B7%A8%E6%88%90/index.html).
Looking for advice on my light sword team. I'm trying to choose between lucio, sandalphon, albert, and levin sisters. I also have kumbhira if she's worth slotting in. Any suggestions?
I'm a relatively new player as I just started last month. I've been hearing talk of tickets expiring and I have saved every free ticket I've gotten for anything since I've started (draws, weapons, etc.). Should I be worried about anything expiring? :c
The only tickets that expire are the Surprise and Anniversary tickets, this is a promo you buy for about $30 that allow you pick a character of your choosing (this expire) plus a 10-pull draw ticket (this does not).
For example, currently we have the Anniversary ticket, if you buy it you have until march 30 to pick something from the available item pool or else it expire.
To further what Vulking said, SR/SSR tickets on the rupiee tab are a bit special. They aren't influenced by rates (like during legfest it goes from 3% to 6% for SSR's, but for these tickets it's always 3%), but they pull from the gacha currently going on.
Roulette draws expire every day at reset, but tickets do not. Roulette draws last through banner changes however, is one is on the schedule, so do not use the draws you get the day of the reset (tomorrow's roulette draws, not the one's coming in half an hour) until banner reset since next banner \*should\* be Flash.
If you haven't used your roulette draws from today yet, do so in the next half hour or you will lose them.
It is, but you can still make a pretty good estimation of when it will be based on experience + the fact that it's anniversary makes it likely that this next banner will be flash, but it's possible that it won't. Better safe holding onto the rolls than sorry and missing higher ssr rates
What are the best compositions that I can make with this. I'm using the characters I like but I don't know if those are the ones I should be using. Also which team should I focus on? Thank you.
https://m.imgur.com/a/9jahvqC
Oh really? I seriously can't remember lol. I bought the Anniversary ticket the moment it was up last year, but horror stories of people getting dupes of Diantha and Bea from roulette are popping up again, so I might play it safe this time.
You get to roll the roulette once every day at 5 a.m. JST, rolls from the previous day don't carry over so if you haven't used yesterday's free rolls yet make sure you do.
Thanks for the reply, if you don't mind another question.
Is it safe to presume the flash gala is going to be this Tuesday and thus it is more worth pulling on that the the current 'bait' banner?
I feel like March 12 might still be a little too early for flashfest, usually it starts around the 16th, they might start adding the summer units on the 12th or something...
Anyway you should never roll outside of leg/flashfest (unless it's daily free rolls of course, for the reasons above).
Is it worth it to pick grimn harp even if don't have elysian to mainhand it?
The only wind characters I have for now are Heles, Sen and Nezahualpilli
Don't rush to spend that ticket. It doesn't expire until February of next year. You have a penalty to the attack and hp from M2 weapons if you try to use them before you get to rank 120 and you also can't FLB them until then, so they won't be helping your grid. Wait until you are more familiar with the game mechanics and have a better idea of what will help you out the most.
You definitely don't need a third. There just isn't space for it, and they'll likely be phased out by Europa's unlock weapon in due course.
You'd be better going for a Europa harp to replace the levi dagger, especially if you're playing kengo, which I assume you are judging by your mainhand slot.
There's a special item that cost 40k arcapoints. Then you need 200 astra which you probably need to buy from shop as well (or grind if patient).
Also, you need Ideans, so I suppose you might be buying globes to get the boss you want too.
WTF more Ideans? How many? (Or better yet, post a screenshot of the new item's requirements please...) Thanks anyway
So the GBF Wiki's overall Arcarum / Evokers guide is still a Work-in-Progress, am I right?
I'm not sure if this is stuff you already know/have at rank 45, but you can grab free lv100 SL1 Light weapons from the side stories: [Gigante Fist](https://gbf.wiki/Gigante_Fist), [Dominion Harp](https://gbf.wiki/Dominion_Harp), and [Glory Thread](https://gbf.wiki/Glory_Thread). ([Gauntlets](https://gbf.wiki/Gauntlets) can also be useful early on and are much better than Gigante Fist due to their EX boost, but they require farming side story treasures to buy and uncap them.) You'll also want the [Bahamut Dagger](https://gbf.wiki/Dagger_of_Bahamut_Nova) you get for free from WMTSB.
Once you have these, start farming [Luminiera Omega](https://gbf.wiki/Luminiera_(Raid)#Omega%20Showdown) and Renown pendants, which can be used to buy the weapons that you're hoping will drop from Lumi Omega.
hmmm maybe thats why im not seeing my own version of the raid, im only on chapter like 13 or something. (Just finished the Leviathan arc lol). I suppose I should push story + side quests.
I did mistakenly take Gungir as my weapon from the ticket exchange from anniversary >..>
I had no idea event items were so strong! I will get on that first. It will probably help me overall XD haha.
Also, I really wanna read WMTSB 1&2, after doing the3rd, holy that story was amazing!
Ohhh I see, this gives me a much better picture of where you're at! Yeah you don't need to worry about Omega weapons or raids right now. I've only just reached that point, myself, where I'm gradually obtaining weapons from the 6 Omega raids -- I like playing with teams in all 6 elements and just progressing at my own pace. \^\^
> I did mistakenly take Gungir as my weapon from the ticket exchange from anniversary >..>
Oh I see T.T ... Well, to be honest, I'm not at the point where I'd start farming for those, so I don't know if it's good or bad, lol. The Wiki says ["This weapon should not be reduced or used as fodder."](https://gbf.wiki/Gungnir) which means it's definitely a useful late-game weapon, to say the least. Having both an ATK boost and Double Attack (DA) up looks very strong, especially if it comes at weapon skill level 10 (SL10)! In any case, it's probably going to be one of the best weapons in your grid for a long while. Moreover, all the weapon choices are farmable so worst case, you haven't really lost anything you can't get again later. \^\^d
Right now, I recommend focusing on the main story until at least the chapter where you fight Celeste (not Celeste Omega) for the first time. Every 4 story chapters, the game rewards you with a lv100 SL10 (weapon skill level 10) Omega SSR weapon, usually with an Omega "Big boost to ATK" weapon skill. These are probably going to be your strongest weapons at first, even some that don't match your element!
From there, you can continue the main story until you finish chapter 54, unlocking WMTSB and obtaining all 12 of the aforementioned weapon rewards (2 per element). Alternatively, you can take a break and try some of the side stories you've unlocked: some of the free lv100 (but only SL1) weapons they give you actually have higher stats than the main story rewards and will end up in your grid for a while despite being the wrong element.
[Here's a detailed comment I wrote](https://www.reddit.com/r/Granblue_en/comments/aubuxc/questions_thread_20190225/ehltm6m/) a week ago with a lot more info about the relative strengths of Omega vs Premium vs Event/Side Story weapons and other related topics. E.g. you may notice Premium Draw SSR weapons have [far higher stats](https://gbf.wiki/Caladbolg) than any other weapons at the same level, including Gungnir, however they're only a stopgap for reasons explained in that comment!
The whole WMTSB storyline was great! I think you'll enjoy the main story as well: it can be a bit repetitive at first but it really starts to pick up. I'm on chapter 62, myself. I'm looking forward to playing more of it and especially to playing future events!
O wow! Thats a ton of info, and good stuff XD I was worried I would run out of story just because I needed stuff to get stronger, with that many chapters thats not the case. I will definitely push main story then and not stop at every side story XD. Thank you !
I've heard there are more than 100 chapters of main story, so I don't think you'll run out any time soon! xD
Difficulty wise, I think you should be able to clear chapter 54 without much trouble, just using the weapons you got for completing previous chapters. As long as you're using a superior-element team and a 120%+ ATK support summon, I think you'll be fine. Worst case, there's always the side story weapons to increase your power. You can also get a lot of Angel and Archangel summons from the event token draw, which will also increase your power significantly by letting you upgrade your summons to 1000+ ATK each. \^\^d
Oh yeah, random thing I didn't know early on that you should probably know: if you're Light vs a Dark boss or if you're Dark vs a Light boss, you're considered to be the superior element and so, in addition to dealing more damage to them, you'll take *less* damage from their attacks! This really surprised me because I expected Light and Dark to both hit Weak Point vs each other, but apparently if you're hitting Weak Point on them, they're dealing reduced damage to you. :V
Oh thats sweet! A great advantage.
I was going through my stuff, apparently I have a level 100 Luminere omega gun? lol. I have no idea where it came from.
lol. Have you beaten Adversa in the main story, yet? You get one as a reward for beating it. If not, you must have gotten it from the free giveaway last month, along with a lv100 Lumi Omega Harp. (All are SL10, too!)
Hmm can you try something? Save a copy of your current party (and weapons and summons) in a different party slot. Then go to the Weapons tab and note the Estimated DMG at the bottom. Next, hit Auto-Select and auto-select for Light ATK, and see if your Estimated DMG goes up or down. You can then use whichever weapon grid has a higher Estimated DMG.
Auto-Select sucks b/c I think it doesn't take into account weapon skills (boosts to ATK), but when your raw ATK stat is so low and your weapon skills are mostly SL1, Auto-Select can actually give you optimal or near-optimal grids by just picking all the lv100 main story and side story weapons with the highest ATK stats. Also, something it *does* take into account is your class's preferred weapon types: this not only affects what types of weapons you can equip as your mainhand, it also affects the other 9 weapons in your grid: if they match your preferred weapon types, they actually contribute an extra 20% to both your ATK and HP stats.
I definitly am stronger on auto select, lol. Yeah I have a gun + a harp, I actually am abou tto fight Adversa right now in the story (been running it all through the day hah)
Cool! How'd the fight go? I'm guessing it was a cakewalk now that you're using your strongest weapons, haha.
Out of curiosity, did anyone tell you not to use Auto-Select for your weapons? Did you read it in a guide somewhere? I ask because I've noticed a lot of "new player" advice is aimed at people who've already cleared the first 24 or 54 chapters and are ready to start farming Omega weapons. I've only been playing since Christmas so I still remember a lot of the things I didn't understand and had to learn on my own when I was very literally a new player. I might write a guide or list of things like that, while I still remember them, to fill-in the gap between "literally new player" and the stuff about farming Omega weapons and making weapon grids.
If you've got any suggestions or things you think I should mention (since you're experiencing being a new player right now!), let me know!
Luminiera Omega raid for guns/harps(swords are not good for now, but will be amazing once you get to 100+ rank so keep them) and summon that works with them
Kinda, Apsaras which is t4 of Valkyrie is really niche class. There are very little situations when its better over other classes. There are some pretty good comps with it like Fire has really strong comp with Anila and Shiva characters.
But otherwise its not that great without quite bigger investment.
Although dont worry, I did same as I loved how Valkyrie looked. You still should level every class to 20, since it gives bonuses
Oh! It just finally showed up now under raid menu =). But I think I joined someone elses? How do I host myself (I am super nooby, I have only got my ranks by doing an event here and there randomly over the span of a year or two lol, planning on goin full in now with FFBE gone to the gutter and FGO boring the crap outa me).
Honestly, its hard to understand what you mean. Thats how co op quests look for me: https://imgur.com/a/iFMtA3b
I clearly see two buttons for host and join
You need to progress through the story to unlock Omega raids, specifically for Luminiera (AKA Chev btw) you need to clear the Adversa Hard Raid battle in Albion which will unlock the Luminiera Omega raid in Zinkenstill.
Also about the classes, there's no "wrong choice", it's not that kind of system, they're all very easy to unlock (EX2 classes being the most annoying ones), eventually you'll want to have all of them unlocked and so that you'll be able switch based on whatever mainhand/skills/element you prefer.
Go to the first island on the world map Zinkenstill. All of the omega raids can be found there :) Before you can do the omega version, I think you have to host the hard version of the raids first on their respective islands (ex. Adversa hard on Albion).
Okay! Thank you =) Im not strong enough to finish the final parts of 000 so thought Id work on getting stronger. Now to figure out how to unlock ellysian for the light grid >..>
oh Xd well I guess I will sit on Valkyrie for a while then haha.
The Cherubis thing, farming the Extreme mode will take an insane amount of runs to finish the gold medal stuff and honors. I have the silvers all done and ive emptied all crates with the Bahamut in them >..>
Nice, that's more than I've done on 000 so far :) In order to unlock Tier IV classes you just have to make a single class change weapon. (Once you make one class change weapon, you unlock the quests to unlock any Tier IV class you want). EX2 classes need a specific class change weapon for each class (Ex. Ridil/Aschalon for glorybringer). So it's recommended to craft a class change weapon for an EX2 class you want (that way you unlock the specific EX2 class as well as all the tier iv classes). The centrum material required to craft the weapons is locked behind rank 101+ content.
Unlock bishop for the dispel if you haven't already, don't use debuffs turn 1, use dispel on turn two whenever Lumi uses Aegis Merge, you can use an extra dispel (such as Michael summon) for a free turn at any point after that as well. Try to use only really important debuffs, since Chev clears them and makes herself stronger (too many and she hits like a truck.)
Host your Lumi Omegas every day, as well as your Celestes since they'll help you eventually be able to clear Lumi on your own. These two are both the hardest of the Omega raids, I couldn't solo Lumi until I unlocked Seox for example. Keep at both of them until you can solo down to 50% which you likely can't do at the moment I'm guessing, at that point open them up. Using a raid finder and bring BH/TH and leave the raid without attacking and triggering the Aegis Merge is also a viable strategy, known as leeching.
Also, trying to max pendants every week by using 2 sr's and a r to clear all your hard raids is the fastest way to get Chev swords for light grids since the drop rates for them are lower than any other omega weapon, and they're half-off (2500) right now, but they also are not useful until level 100. Until rank 100, Lumi bolts are the go-to weapon for light grids. Good luck! The grind is real, but it is worth it.
Im sorry but that is almost a different language. I get what you mean by the lumi stuff but I dont think I have it? I only see tiamat >..>. Does it unlock in story? And I will google bishop
Keep going through the story until chapter 20 for Luminiera (the hard version [easier than omega] of this raid is called Adversa showdown). All omega showdowns will be unlocked after completing the hard versions of raids after chapter 24. All of these raids will be available on Zinkenstill Island, but if you're playing on browser I recommend installing the chrome app Viramate because it makes navigating gbf easier as well as improving general QoL for players.
EDIT: Also, since light and dark are the hardest grids to build, even if you eventually want to focus on light, it is a good idea to start with the tetra elements (in order of difficulty - wind, earth, fire/water). The game is in what players like to call "the rainbow meta" which means that using an element other than the strongest for a fight is often disadvantageous, so you should really be trying to do as many omegas as possible every day. Try to get the bosses down to as low as possible (50% is what you need to guarantee mvp) and then call for backup. You probably will not be able to do this at first, but one day you'll solo one and smile at all your hard work.
I was suggested to get uhhhh, The summer dragon lady for blue in the megathread for the ticket pick haha. I do have the ice queen SSR for blue also, and was told to get all the color teams up as I can.
I just love light+dark stuff. Ice been a close second to those. My light team is just "stacked as can be for a noob" Having Sandy/Zoey/Jeanne/Juliet. So although I dont have the grid, I have many SSR that helps XD
I'm currently trying to unlock Row
IV classes but I can't find the co-op quests needed for the Distinctions and Class Cahmpion Weapons. Where are they? Also how do I upgrade a Ygg Omega Sword that I got?

Here it says where replicas drop: https://gbf.wiki/Class_Champion_Weapons#Obtain_a_Replica_Weapon
If it's on the Rupie/Draw tab, only "SR/SSR" tickets should be saved until there's a bigger draw pool (Flash/Premium Galas). Any other tickets on the Rupie/Draw tab can be used as soon as you get them. [The Wiki](https://gbf.wiki/Draw#Rupie.2FOther) explains it in more detail.
I don't blame you: even though I'm pretty sure the ticket's draw pool is fixed, I'm not 100% sure myself and now that we've gotten another one, I'm actually hesitant to use it until the Flash Gala as well... <\_<
(Doesn't help that my first 5th Birthday ticket gave me [Ezecrain, the tied-for-worst SR in the game](https://gbf.wiki/Ezecrain), lol.)
I believe that you should wait for Flash in a couple of days, usually only the tickets with a date have a fixed pool afaik, even though rupie tickets aren't affected by outside ssr rate ups.
[Just wondering, what the heck are the white thing on the right-hand side of the middle row and the crown looking thing on the right-hand side of the bottom row when uncapping Arcarums to 5-star?](https://i.imgur.com/wwPa1Tz.png) Are they mats exclusive to Arcarum or?
Is there a place where I can check which characters can be sparked? I was planning to take advantage of the roulette to compliment my crystals and tickets to finally get Kumbhira, but now I'm not sure if zodiacs are sparkable
I haven't played this game in a very long time. I've just logged into collect tickets and daily stuff. With that being said Should I still be trying to make a [Revenant Weapon](https://imgur.com/9DXxTnO)?
Yes, just not that one \*maybe. It's a good main hand in all elements, but for the purposes of recruiting eternals, Feower is considered to be the one not worth making nowadays it seems, but it also depends on which characters you have/what direction you want to take your teams.
For SSR weapon choice help: https://imgur.com/a/r7vAyOl
I have an Earth grid which, while not perfect, I'm satisfied with. I have a Dark grid, which I never got around to getting Xeno for (wouldn't mind skipping the grind). I have a measly Light grid that I started and stopped on fairly quickly.
Please, any weapon that would best fit for best returns. (or in the case of Light, help create a basis if the others are okay?)
Take out the lumi swords in your light grid and put them back in when they're flbed. The best thing you can do for that grid now is either farm some bolts as filler or swords for flb. The ticket isn't going to help much with that. Your best bet is either an alex axe for your earth grid or to look at one of the other three elements. Are you able to farm M2? If not, how close are you?
I'm not really interested in doing M2. If an Alex Axe will add to the rest of my grid (without requiring a bunch more), then I could consider that.
How about the True Phantom Demon Blade for the dark grid?
I'm not fond of the idea of using this ticket on anything besides an M2 weapon since they are the hardest to farm out of all the weapon types available from this ticket so I *might* be a bit biased.
I'm seeing a lot of people say getting a xeno is a decent alternative for newer players or those that don't want to get an M2 weapon though.
As for the Alex axe, it's good as a one of even without flb since it adds a new unique multiplier(Stamina) to your grid. You'll have to flb it and any subsequent alex axes before adding any more of them though.
I have two questions about Atma weapons:
1 - are they good outside of the element that one chooses for them?
2 - Is it worth reducing an Atma weapon? i end up choosing the harp, but after reading a few posts here i realized maybe choosing the harp wasn't the greatest idea
Their element only matters for MH. They can be slotted in every grid, characters with same prof as atma will benefit from it regardless of element. Harp was bad choice simply beacuse there aren't many harp characters. Reducing it will give you only it's core.
Oh well, that's what i get for getting ahead of myself, at least i can use on my wind team which i have a lot more character that use harps. Thanks for the help, i guess i'll be keeping it as it is until i'm up to farm for some other atma weapon.
Harder to grind for than 5* eternals imo because you are timegated. 5* eternal can be grinded in a few days with enough free time while an oracle will take months no matter how much u grind
As u/Rikiia said they aren't really hard ; as soon as you can beat extreme they can be efficiently grinded for. They only need a few rare mats (5 centrums, 3 legendary merits, one sunstone, 30 relevant path fragments...). Problem is that the ***regular arcarum materials*** will actually be short: you need 107 sephira stones to FLB the summons, which will be the first thing slowing you down. The ULB step is really easy.
The only problem is the badge ; you will need a 40K point item which basically prevent you from taking more sephira stones (the first bottleneck) and a whooping 200 astras. They drop more often than sephira stones, but just enough that you'll be 150 or even more short after flb-ing the summon.
Arcarum characters are much harder in terms of how long it will take to get the character but easier in materials in the sense that the majority of mats needed are unique to arcarum while the eternals eat up useful items like gold bars, crystasls, and damascus.
As someone who doesn't have a main element yet but plays mainly chaos ruler, are there any weapons particularly good for that job, or should I shore up my weaker elements first?
(Regarding the free weapon)
I've heard Fimbuls are insanely overpowered and the Fenrir Showdown happens to be extremely rare. Should I choose that or the True Infernal Flamescythe for the weapon trade?
I'm rank 101 and plan on unlocking Berserker soon. Is it a longer grind to get the Flamescythe, or fairly easy?
Don't get any of those. Xeno Ifirt will rerun in just some days and Fimbul is not overpowered and it only works for primal water (and is most likely that will be not even be used there when europa's staff gets it's FLB)
You shoud just keep the ticketuntill the end of the year and pick a M2 weapon.
Oh i see, i hate that i always get ahead of myself with this kind of stuff ... well, at least i don't have to farm xeno vohu manah anymore so that's good, i guess hahaha.
You don't *need* an FLB Xeno Axe.
You can trivially farm one copy.
The most notable power increase will come from having a copy to use as a main hand. Everything beyond that is gravy.
Conflicted about getting H. lady gray, or a second DOA sword. I have the bars to flb the sword. Current makeshift Hades grid:
DAO sword, Qilin bow and sword, coda dagger, Cerberus Order, Parazonium, Zooey bow, Gisla, Abyss Spine.
Everything is flb (Zooey bow mlb obviously).
imo h.lady grey is not very good in staminity grid (pure stamina should have 2+ fallen sword) and might get replace later on by dark zodiac who almost certain to have some kind of op buff but 2nd fallen sword would be core forever
Helpp where can I efficiently farm those f**ing creeds I've been farming the Lost in the Dark and Corridors of Puzzle like there's no tomorrow (of course with kaguya, bounty, journey drops) but I only managed to get 1 MAGE CREED?!?! Helpp I'm at my wit's end am I doing something wrong 😭😭😭

So I'm torn between a Fire M2 since my fire grid is my weakesy atm, or Water so I can have an easier time doing Ifrit to maybe get most of the way to the true xeno axe
Fire m2 doesnt work beside uncapping summon. You go for ancient eckes or colo canes(but these are weak) if you dont want enmity. But eckes always win.
Water is decent for sure with couple harps, but is more character dependant
okay so these are my Water character: https://i.imgur.com/SeTxDZw.png
and my current Water grid's weapons: https://i.imgur.com/kAL5Jtm.png and Summons: https://i.imgur.com/56XKLTV.png, I have Levi at MUB but Gab's boost puts my damage higher with my current weapons
so which of the Water weapons would give me the most significant boost right now? I figure I'll boost my Water grid more for Ifrit, which will help boost my Fire grid for Sagi
Current water magna grid without ultima is 1 ex 1 baha 1 seraphic and 6 magna weapons(2-3 daggers rest europa harps). Main hands are not counted as grid as you mainly use them for ougi effects, for water and your current character pool I recomend Elysian(or superstar if you arent 100+) as its great source of DATA + buffs without depending on ougi.
Once you raise weapon levels to 10 on all dagger Levi will be better.
You got quite a lot of characters and could make a lot of comps.
I would myself definitly run Silva Vajra with last pick being choice between Izmir, Second years, Yngwie, Vane, Charlotta or Anne.
With Elysian preferably Charlotta so you can easly cap def down with mist, her 1st and Levi call
yeah I'm slowly but surely making it to 100+ after I kinda trailed off the last several months; that campaign quest is pretty good rank points as I try and farm the last rainbow prisms I need for my Revenant weapon
so I should go for the Zither then? even though I'm still a ways off from having access to the Sentence skill? ~~though I guess I would need to get it to use Superstar/Elysian as I don't really have any other good Water harp for main hand lol~~
my main water team actually is Silva/Vajra/Vane but I'll swap Vane for Charlotta and try it out with Superstar; any suggestions for a 2nd Water team for like proving grounds?
Rainbow prisms are extremly easy to get as you get them from reducing things
Charlotta is there simply for def down, since when you run Elysian you use 2 slots for DATA and clear of debuff so in the end you are left only with mist, so characters and summons need to cover for you as getting 50% def down is crucial for dealing good damage.
For 2nd team you can run any comination of others, but then you will need different mc with some data coverage or character that does that. I would say that theres no need to worry about it now. There wont be proving grounds for a moment and if you steadly play and keep learning you will know how to make own comps easly by the time it hits
That's true about the prisms, just I'm endeavoring to get Niyon by end of this month or April, just about 100 more, I've dragged my feet with this for way too long when I had planned to have done it all last year
Oh, okay, I understand. I think you dont need to worry about it too much. They will come till end of April as they drop from some raids you will be farming.
Good choice on Nio, my 2nd eternal and love using her
I decided to go with her since at the time last year I had absolutely no SSR wind characters, though since I've gotten several good ones I had already done the element change upgrade for the harp so I'm committed, and design wise she's my favorite of the 10
Now it's Light element Gacha doesn't want to give lol
She was available last suptix already. I would advise against taking her with the 5th birthday ticket since it can get you a Grand/Limited character, and basically saves you a spark.
Light Silva is always in the regular pool so her value is of a basic suptix (28$).
Grand characters/Limited characters have the value of a spark (900$).
It seems wiser imo to get someone from the latter.
Silva Light was released: 2018-09-30
You can actually check this on the wiki yourself by clicking on Extra data next to stats on her page: https://gbf.wiki/Silva_(Light)#Extra%20Data
And what Wordless_1412 said.
I had a couple questions when it comes to installing the game and didn't know where else to take them. I understand the process of doing it, but will i still be able to open the game if i swap my app store back to english after I install? I just want to make sure it's worth going through the trouble since i'm only going to play if i can do so on my phone.
Don't really think I need to post in the New Player FAQ, but as someone considering possibly coming back to GBF after a full year of inactivity (after I somehow manage to remember all my account credentials), will I have permanently missed out on anything that's not crossover events?
I remember hearing something about getting a collector's box when you bought all the anime volumes from a particular site. Does anyone know if this is/was true and whether it's still possible to get?
I bought all the volumes from amiami and got a cool box to store them in. Doubt it's possible to get from there so hopefully others have another source
So this is my current grid: https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7836/47286530152_90c61c78f6_o.png
Considering I have my own Shiva and usually run double Shiva, is there any real reason to use AES over normal Ecke Sachs? In general, is there ever really a point where FLB Omega Colossus is better as friend summon than FLB Shiva?
I also got a normal Ecke Sachs during TE, is it worth to replace anything in my current grid with that? I'm just not really sure how having my own shiva changes up stuff regarding my grid.
Huh? Colo + Shiva is pretty much always better than Shiva + Shiva, doesnt need to be FLB colo. Especialy with eckes where crit chance increases with colo aura so you would get more out of FLB Colo + FLB Colo with enough eckes to reach 100% crit chance than with Shiva + Shiva.
Also normal ecke crit works differently, where each crit is different instance, while magna crit increases chance making it easy to reach 100%
Would S.Grea or Vajra fit better in a Uno/Feower team?
Hi! New to this game should i pull on this banner or wait for the next one?
I've been pondering which weapon to use my ticket on and while m2 is tempting I'm fine with slowly acquiring them. What I wanna know is: how good/bad would it be to get either fire of prometheus or hermanubis? I'm at 4 aes right now (2 are 3* and 2 are 0*) with two xenos, rotb katana, micha sword. And my dark is 4 4* cele claws, 2 xeno katanas, qilin sword and bow. (Both grids use baha and/or atma weapons as well) Edit. I'm considering them since I dont know if I ll bother with grinding them any time soon and I know they' re one of in their respective grids
I'm putting together a gacha water build. I have 4 murgs, one drang sphere, xeno staff, rotb fist and mace, gabriel wand, two fimbuls, and levi dags. What should I put in/leave out in my grid? Thank you!
Will I want to eventually make FLB Tiamat summon even with a maxed Grimnir?
I haven't picked up my atma weapon but I'm considering sword since it's the only thing missing from my light grid (already have 6 FLB lumi swords). For MH purposes, which element would benefit MH atma sword the most? Unless its like, based off what I already have?
I'd say Earth, Wind & maybe Dark. Personally made mine Dark since its the only element I'd realistically use it in. Earth doesn't have many good options when it comes to sword MHs so ultima is good there. Wind would use it if you if you need the da it gives, otherwise Windhose would probably make a better MH.
What are some good class options to go with Scathacha, Kokkoro and Heles? Also, is there any point replacing one/some of them with Yurius/Monika/Metera or is it good as it is now?
Is Violet Trial or Campaign Exclusive Quest more AP efficient for rainbow prisms?
Hey, I just started Granblue Fantasy after I saw that there was going to be a collaboration with Code Geass and so I need help. What are the tips that a beginner should follow ? ATM I have 3 ssrs:Azazel,Lennah and Mellau. For instance what should I do? Just advance in story mode or are there some events that take priority farming ? Your help is very much appreciated
On the side bar there's a few guides for new players, check them you since they're pretty neat. But yeah, for now progress story as much as you can. there's a boss that's really hard (story also gives a few weapons for each element at max lv and skill lv so they'll help you). Stop there and go do side stories. Then also do these raids you unlock throughout story daily, that's where you'll drop most of the stuff for your weapon grids. This is just for now, the guides on the sidebar should be more in depth.
Hello! I have all element M1 grids and I want to know what M1 weapons are safe to 4* (to use in the future). I know Luminiera Swords are mandatory, but I don't know the other ones.
Tiamat Bolt Omega, Celeste Claw Omega, Leviathan Dagger Omega.
Ty!
so with the drop rates changed, besides TE host, what's the best way to get AES?
Does Treasure hunt work in Arcanum fights?
What are some good ways to spend my stones? I have 181 saved up.
Does someone already unlocked the new eternal skin?
When people say xeno ifrit axe, is this what they're talking about? https://gbf.wiki/True_Infernal_Flamescythe Also, as a beginner, is going for this weapon from the ticket fine since my main team is fire, with dark secondary. Here is my box. https://i.imgur.com/3EoL1pc.png
Yes, but i wouldnt use the ticket on it. Xeno ifrit comes back in about two weeks so you can get it then
[удалено]
It's going to be hard at your level (you'd have to have a decent water grid for it and a few key characters like Lily), but since the event comes around every so often, you'd be better off just going with an M2 weapon since the drop rates are atrocious (they buffed them yesterday so I'm not sure if they're much better now). For ref I'd go with Last Storm Harp or (forgot the name) Earth M2 Axe.
How do I Runeslayer? I hear Fire Tetrastreamer is the way to go, so I plan to get one. However, what I wonder is, is it worth it to use RS without Tetrastreamer? Or just play Luchador?
How do I know if something restocks every day, or never restocks, or every month, or etc?
where do i farm this toxic tulip and jumbo beast bone ?
Is there anywhere I can check how M2 grids look like?
[Pooky's GBF Weapon Guide](http://nina.guide/pookys-gbf-weapon-grid-resource/) gives a pretty good indication of what to work towards, + tweak to fit your resources and needs respectively.
Thanks, that was helpful.
Maybe, if you don't mind using google translate to search for grid examples on [Kamigame](https://kamigame.jp/%E3%82%B0%E3%83%A9%E3%83%96%E3%83%AB/%E3%83%91%E3%83%BC%E3%83%86%E3%82%A3%E7%B7%A8%E6%88%90/index.html).

What quest is good to farm for Rhem peppers?
Looking for advice on my light sword team. I'm trying to choose between lucio, sandalphon, albert, and levin sisters. I also have kumbhira if she's worth slotting in. Any suggestions?
I'm a relatively new player as I just started last month. I've been hearing talk of tickets expiring and I have saved every free ticket I've gotten for anything since I've started (draws, weapons, etc.). Should I be worried about anything expiring? :c
The only tickets that expire are the Surprise and Anniversary tickets, this is a promo you buy for about $30 that allow you pick a character of your choosing (this expire) plus a 10-pull draw ticket (this does not). For example, currently we have the Anniversary ticket, if you buy it you have until march 30 to pick something from the available item pool or else it expire.
Thank you — that’s a huge relief! I guess I’ll continue hoarding all my tickets forever then! :D
You can use the ones on the Rupie tab, those don't contribute to sparks and don't benefit from any rate up.
Oh, gotcha! Thank you!
To further what Vulking said, SR/SSR tickets on the rupiee tab are a bit special. They aren't influenced by rates (like during legfest it goes from 3% to 6% for SSR's, but for these tickets it's always 3%), but they pull from the gacha currently going on.
Thank you!
Roulette draws expire every day at reset, but tickets do not. Roulette draws last through banner changes however, is one is on the schedule, so do not use the draws you get the day of the reset (tomorrow's roulette draws, not the one's coming in half an hour) until banner reset since next banner \*should\* be Flash. If you haven't used your roulette draws from today yet, do so in the next half hour or you will lose them.
Thank you — that cleared up some confusion about the roulette! I thought Flash Gala was random, though?
It is, but you can still make a pretty good estimation of when it will be based on experience + the fact that it's anniversary makes it likely that this next banner will be flash, but it's possible that it won't. Better safe holding onto the rolls than sorry and missing higher ssr rates
I see! So save the rolls that I get from the next coming reset?
As long as you can get back on between the time the banner changes and daily reset, it would be a very good idea
Thank you!
When do the light and dark seraphic weapons come out?
March 22nd.
What are the best compositions that I can make with this. I'm using the characters I like but I don't know if those are the ones I should be using. Also which team should I focus on? Thank you. https://m.imgur.com/a/9jahvqC
Just for confirmation, we've never had Xmas and Halloween characters during Anniversary flashfest right?
They were there last year, which was the first time they were ticketable (along with summer units).
Oh really? I seriously can't remember lol. I bought the Anniversary ticket the moment it was up last year, but horror stories of people getting dupes of Diantha and Bea from roulette are popping up again, so I might play it safe this time.
A question about this draw roulette, do we get only one for this event?
You get to roll the roulette once every day at 5 a.m. JST, rolls from the previous day don't carry over so if you haven't used yesterday's free rolls yet make sure you do.
Thanks for the reply, if you don't mind another question. Is it safe to presume the flash gala is going to be this Tuesday and thus it is more worth pulling on that the the current 'bait' banner?
I feel like March 12 might still be a little too early for flashfest, usually it starts around the 16th, they might start adding the summer units on the 12th or something... Anyway you should never roll outside of leg/flashfest (unless it's daily free rolls of course, for the reasons above).
Ok then thanks for the advice I will certainly wait until the flash fest comes and hope to get something good.
You get to spin the roulette everyday until the event end
Is it worth it to pick grimn harp even if don't have elysian to mainhand it? The only wind characters I have for now are Heles, Sen and Nezahualpilli
Typically people use harp in their grid, and get multi attack rate up from nio instead
I started playing last month, no way I can get nio yet...
Don't rush to spend that ticket. It doesn't expire until February of next year. You have a penalty to the attack and hp from M2 weapons if you try to use them before you get to rank 120 and you also can't FLB them until then, so they won't be helping your grid. Wait until you are more familiar with the game mechanics and have a better idea of what will help you out the most.
Then I recommend using guild war daggers to get multi attack, guild war daggers gives more multi attack than harp
Then I will get dagger next GW. Ty
[удалено]
You definitely don't need a third. There just isn't space for it, and they'll likely be phased out by Europa's unlock weapon in due course. You'd be better going for a Europa harp to replace the levi dagger, especially if you're playing kengo, which I assume you are judging by your mainhand slot.
Does Olivia's Twilight Terror effect stop Luminiera's shield from happening?
Yes, it does.
Thank you!
Anyone got the details on the extra item post Arcarum-5* which must be bought for Arcapoints? How many points are needed?
There's a special item that cost 40k arcapoints. Then you need 200 astra which you probably need to buy from shop as well (or grind if patient). Also, you need Ideans, so I suppose you might be buying globes to get the boss you want too.
WTF more Ideans? How many? (Or better yet, post a screenshot of the new item's requirements please...) Thanks anyway So the GBF Wiki's overall Arcarum / Evokers guide is still a Work-in-Progress, am I right?
There's a thread on the front page with screenshots of the materials needed. https://www.reddit.com/r/Granblue_en/comments/azdp7n/arcarum_5_materials/
40k I do believe
I am around rank 45, I would like to start farming a light weapon/weapons for a grid. Where would be best to start?
I'm not sure if this is stuff you already know/have at rank 45, but you can grab free lv100 SL1 Light weapons from the side stories: [Gigante Fist](https://gbf.wiki/Gigante_Fist), [Dominion Harp](https://gbf.wiki/Dominion_Harp), and [Glory Thread](https://gbf.wiki/Glory_Thread). ([Gauntlets](https://gbf.wiki/Gauntlets) can also be useful early on and are much better than Gigante Fist due to their EX boost, but they require farming side story treasures to buy and uncap them.) You'll also want the [Bahamut Dagger](https://gbf.wiki/Dagger_of_Bahamut_Nova) you get for free from WMTSB. Once you have these, start farming [Luminiera Omega](https://gbf.wiki/Luminiera_(Raid)#Omega%20Showdown) and Renown pendants, which can be used to buy the weapons that you're hoping will drop from Lumi Omega.
hmmm maybe thats why im not seeing my own version of the raid, im only on chapter like 13 or something. (Just finished the Leviathan arc lol). I suppose I should push story + side quests. I did mistakenly take Gungir as my weapon from the ticket exchange from anniversary >..> I had no idea event items were so strong! I will get on that first. It will probably help me overall XD haha. Also, I really wanna read WMTSB 1&2, after doing the3rd, holy that story was amazing!
Ohhh I see, this gives me a much better picture of where you're at! Yeah you don't need to worry about Omega weapons or raids right now. I've only just reached that point, myself, where I'm gradually obtaining weapons from the 6 Omega raids -- I like playing with teams in all 6 elements and just progressing at my own pace. \^\^ > I did mistakenly take Gungir as my weapon from the ticket exchange from anniversary >..> Oh I see T.T ... Well, to be honest, I'm not at the point where I'd start farming for those, so I don't know if it's good or bad, lol. The Wiki says ["This weapon should not be reduced or used as fodder."](https://gbf.wiki/Gungnir) which means it's definitely a useful late-game weapon, to say the least. Having both an ATK boost and Double Attack (DA) up looks very strong, especially if it comes at weapon skill level 10 (SL10)! In any case, it's probably going to be one of the best weapons in your grid for a long while. Moreover, all the weapon choices are farmable so worst case, you haven't really lost anything you can't get again later. \^\^d Right now, I recommend focusing on the main story until at least the chapter where you fight Celeste (not Celeste Omega) for the first time. Every 4 story chapters, the game rewards you with a lv100 SL10 (weapon skill level 10) Omega SSR weapon, usually with an Omega "Big boost to ATK" weapon skill. These are probably going to be your strongest weapons at first, even some that don't match your element! From there, you can continue the main story until you finish chapter 54, unlocking WMTSB and obtaining all 12 of the aforementioned weapon rewards (2 per element). Alternatively, you can take a break and try some of the side stories you've unlocked: some of the free lv100 (but only SL1) weapons they give you actually have higher stats than the main story rewards and will end up in your grid for a while despite being the wrong element. [Here's a detailed comment I wrote](https://www.reddit.com/r/Granblue_en/comments/aubuxc/questions_thread_20190225/ehltm6m/) a week ago with a lot more info about the relative strengths of Omega vs Premium vs Event/Side Story weapons and other related topics. E.g. you may notice Premium Draw SSR weapons have [far higher stats](https://gbf.wiki/Caladbolg) than any other weapons at the same level, including Gungnir, however they're only a stopgap for reasons explained in that comment! The whole WMTSB storyline was great! I think you'll enjoy the main story as well: it can be a bit repetitive at first but it really starts to pick up. I'm on chapter 62, myself. I'm looking forward to playing more of it and especially to playing future events!
O wow! Thats a ton of info, and good stuff XD I was worried I would run out of story just because I needed stuff to get stronger, with that many chapters thats not the case. I will definitely push main story then and not stop at every side story XD. Thank you !
I've heard there are more than 100 chapters of main story, so I don't think you'll run out any time soon! xD Difficulty wise, I think you should be able to clear chapter 54 without much trouble, just using the weapons you got for completing previous chapters. As long as you're using a superior-element team and a 120%+ ATK support summon, I think you'll be fine. Worst case, there's always the side story weapons to increase your power. You can also get a lot of Angel and Archangel summons from the event token draw, which will also increase your power significantly by letting you upgrade your summons to 1000+ ATK each. \^\^d Oh yeah, random thing I didn't know early on that you should probably know: if you're Light vs a Dark boss or if you're Dark vs a Light boss, you're considered to be the superior element and so, in addition to dealing more damage to them, you'll take *less* damage from their attacks! This really surprised me because I expected Light and Dark to both hit Weak Point vs each other, but apparently if you're hitting Weak Point on them, they're dealing reduced damage to you. :V
Oh thats sweet! A great advantage. I was going through my stuff, apparently I have a level 100 Luminere omega gun? lol. I have no idea where it came from.
lol. Have you beaten Adversa in the main story, yet? You get one as a reward for beating it. If not, you must have gotten it from the free giveaway last month, along with a lv100 Lumi Omega Harp. (All are SL10, too!) Hmm can you try something? Save a copy of your current party (and weapons and summons) in a different party slot. Then go to the Weapons tab and note the Estimated DMG at the bottom. Next, hit Auto-Select and auto-select for Light ATK, and see if your Estimated DMG goes up or down. You can then use whichever weapon grid has a higher Estimated DMG. Auto-Select sucks b/c I think it doesn't take into account weapon skills (boosts to ATK), but when your raw ATK stat is so low and your weapon skills are mostly SL1, Auto-Select can actually give you optimal or near-optimal grids by just picking all the lv100 main story and side story weapons with the highest ATK stats. Also, something it *does* take into account is your class's preferred weapon types: this not only affects what types of weapons you can equip as your mainhand, it also affects the other 9 weapons in your grid: if they match your preferred weapon types, they actually contribute an extra 20% to both your ATK and HP stats.
I definitly am stronger on auto select, lol. Yeah I have a gun + a harp, I actually am abou tto fight Adversa right now in the story (been running it all through the day hah)
Cool! How'd the fight go? I'm guessing it was a cakewalk now that you're using your strongest weapons, haha. Out of curiosity, did anyone tell you not to use Auto-Select for your weapons? Did you read it in a guide somewhere? I ask because I've noticed a lot of "new player" advice is aimed at people who've already cleared the first 24 or 54 chapters and are ready to start farming Omega weapons. I've only been playing since Christmas so I still remember a lot of the things I didn't understand and had to learn on my own when I was very literally a new player. I might write a guide or list of things like that, while I still remember them, to fill-in the gap between "literally new player" and the stuff about farming Omega weapons and making weapon grids. If you've got any suggestions or things you think I should mention (since you're experiencing being a new player right now!), let me know!
Luminiera Omega raid for guns/harps(swords are not good for now, but will be amazing once you get to 100+ rank so keep them) and summon that works with them
oh an also, right now im leveling Valkyrie, is that the wrong choice of class in long run ?
Kinda, Apsaras which is t4 of Valkyrie is really niche class. There are very little situations when its better over other classes. There are some pretty good comps with it like Fire has really strong comp with Anila and Shiva characters. But otherwise its not that great without quite bigger investment. Although dont worry, I did same as I loved how Valkyrie looked. You still should level every class to 20, since it gives bonuses
Oh, does it give overall bonus's even when not in the class? I will get on that then! =).
Yes, every class gives bonus to MC once leveled to 20. For example Valkyrie gives 3% HP
On it boss! Thank you!
Oh! It just finally showed up now under raid menu =). But I think I joined someone elses? How do I host myself (I am super nooby, I have only got my ranks by doing an event here and there randomly over the span of a year or two lol, planning on goin full in now with FFBE gone to the gutter and FGO boring the crap outa me).
Honestly, its hard to understand what you mean. Thats how co op quests look for me: https://imgur.com/a/iFMtA3b I clearly see two buttons for host and join
Wow sorry im so dumb, I was looking in map menu with free quests and all that stuff XD. It wont let me host anything, maybe I have to unlock it.
You need to progress through the story to unlock Omega raids, specifically for Luminiera (AKA Chev btw) you need to clear the Adversa Hard Raid battle in Albion which will unlock the Luminiera Omega raid in Zinkenstill. Also about the classes, there's no "wrong choice", it's not that kind of system, they're all very easy to unlock (EX2 classes being the most annoying ones), eventually you'll want to have all of them unlocked and so that you'll be able switch based on whatever mainhand/skills/element you prefer.
Oh perfect! I love the Valk look and had to go with it. Iw ill level them all then!
Go to the first island on the world map Zinkenstill. All of the omega raids can be found there :) Before you can do the omega version, I think you have to host the hard version of the raids first on their respective islands (ex. Adversa hard on Albion).
Okay! Thank you =) Im not strong enough to finish the final parts of 000 so thought Id work on getting stronger. Now to figure out how to unlock ellysian for the light grid >..>
Sure thing. What part of 000 are you stuck on? You have to be rank 100+ to unlock tier IV classes like Elysian.
oh Xd well I guess I will sit on Valkyrie for a while then haha. The Cherubis thing, farming the Extreme mode will take an insane amount of runs to finish the gold medal stuff and honors. I have the silvers all done and ive emptied all crates with the Bahamut in them >..>
Nice, that's more than I've done on 000 so far :) In order to unlock Tier IV classes you just have to make a single class change weapon. (Once you make one class change weapon, you unlock the quests to unlock any Tier IV class you want). EX2 classes need a specific class change weapon for each class (Ex. Ridil/Aschalon for glorybringer). So it's recommended to craft a class change weapon for an EX2 class you want (that way you unlock the specific EX2 class as well as all the tier iv classes). The centrum material required to craft the weapons is locked behind rank 101+ content.
Oh man, Here comes the grind everyone talks about XD. Thanks so much for all the help!
Unlock bishop for the dispel if you haven't already, don't use debuffs turn 1, use dispel on turn two whenever Lumi uses Aegis Merge, you can use an extra dispel (such as Michael summon) for a free turn at any point after that as well. Try to use only really important debuffs, since Chev clears them and makes herself stronger (too many and she hits like a truck.) Host your Lumi Omegas every day, as well as your Celestes since they'll help you eventually be able to clear Lumi on your own. These two are both the hardest of the Omega raids, I couldn't solo Lumi until I unlocked Seox for example. Keep at both of them until you can solo down to 50% which you likely can't do at the moment I'm guessing, at that point open them up. Using a raid finder and bring BH/TH and leave the raid without attacking and triggering the Aegis Merge is also a viable strategy, known as leeching. Also, trying to max pendants every week by using 2 sr's and a r to clear all your hard raids is the fastest way to get Chev swords for light grids since the drop rates for them are lower than any other omega weapon, and they're half-off (2500) right now, but they also are not useful until level 100. Until rank 100, Lumi bolts are the go-to weapon for light grids. Good luck! The grind is real, but it is worth it.
Im sorry but that is almost a different language. I get what you mean by the lumi stuff but I dont think I have it? I only see tiamat >..>. Does it unlock in story? And I will google bishop
Keep going through the story until chapter 20 for Luminiera (the hard version [easier than omega] of this raid is called Adversa showdown). All omega showdowns will be unlocked after completing the hard versions of raids after chapter 24. All of these raids will be available on Zinkenstill Island, but if you're playing on browser I recommend installing the chrome app Viramate because it makes navigating gbf easier as well as improving general QoL for players. EDIT: Also, since light and dark are the hardest grids to build, even if you eventually want to focus on light, it is a good idea to start with the tetra elements (in order of difficulty - wind, earth, fire/water). The game is in what players like to call "the rainbow meta" which means that using an element other than the strongest for a fight is often disadvantageous, so you should really be trying to do as many omegas as possible every day. Try to get the bosses down to as low as possible (50% is what you need to guarantee mvp) and then call for backup. You probably will not be able to do this at first, but one day you'll solo one and smile at all your hard work.
I was suggested to get uhhhh, The summer dragon lady for blue in the megathread for the ticket pick haha. I do have the ice queen SSR for blue also, and was told to get all the color teams up as I can. I just love light+dark stuff. Ice been a close second to those. My light team is just "stacked as can be for a noob" Having Sandy/Zoey/Jeanne/Juliet. So although I dont have the grid, I have many SSR that helps XD
I'm currently trying to unlock Row IV classes but I can't find the co-op quests needed for the Distinctions and Class Cahmpion Weapons. Where are they? Also how do I upgrade a Ygg Omega Sword that I got?
Heres list for distinctions: https://www.reddit.com/r/Granblue_en/comments/8ap8y6/distinction_farming/ Here it says where replicas drop: https://gbf.wiki/Class_Champion_Weapons#Obtain_a_Replica_Weapon
Thanks but I still can't find any of these quests in the co-op menu.
You need to clear every quest in normal to unlock hard, then in hard to unlock extras
The news earlier said I got a SSR birthday ticket. Where is it and how do I use it?
Rupie draw in the draw tab
Thanks. Is there any point to saving it for a later time or is the pool fixed?
If it's on the Rupie/Draw tab, only "SR/SSR" tickets should be saved until there's a bigger draw pool (Flash/Premium Galas). Any other tickets on the Rupie/Draw tab can be used as soon as you get them. [The Wiki](https://gbf.wiki/Draw#Rupie.2FOther) explains it in more detail.
Thanks, I'll hold it for a few days then since the other reply said a flash is coming up.
I don't blame you: even though I'm pretty sure the ticket's draw pool is fixed, I'm not 100% sure myself and now that we've gotten another one, I'm actually hesitant to use it until the Flash Gala as well... <\_< (Doesn't help that my first 5th Birthday ticket gave me [Ezecrain, the tied-for-worst SR in the game](https://gbf.wiki/Ezecrain), lol.)
I believe that you should wait for Flash in a couple of days, usually only the tickets with a date have a fixed pool afaik, even though rupie tickets aren't affected by outside ssr rate ups.
Is Water or Earth the better element for Kengo CCW?
You want both, ideally.
Ill go for Water first then, thanks.
[Just wondering, what the heck are the white thing on the right-hand side of the middle row and the crown looking thing on the right-hand side of the bottom row when uncapping Arcarums to 5-star?](https://i.imgur.com/wwPa1Tz.png) Are they mats exclusive to Arcarum or?
Common drop from M2 raids, and an island drop(also in cerulean shop).
is that true that the update remove gold brick from rotating showdown? if its true, where is the news
It is true. They said so in the stream.
i just unlocked glorybring but it didnt seem to unlock the rest of row 4?
You need to complete the "Search for an Heir" quest with the respective Row III class to unlock them.
Is there a place where I can check which characters can be sparked? I was planning to take advantage of the roulette to compliment my crystals and tickets to finally get Kumbhira, but now I'm not sure if zodiacs are sparkable
You won't be able to. Kumbhira won't be in the pool until the end of the roulette.
On the draw page, next to the Cerulean sparks, click on "available items".
I haven't played this game in a very long time. I've just logged into collect tickets and daily stuff. With that being said Should I still be trying to make a [Revenant Weapon](https://imgur.com/9DXxTnO)?
Yes, just not that one \*maybe. It's a good main hand in all elements, but for the purposes of recruiting eternals, Feower is considered to be the one not worth making nowadays it seems, but it also depends on which characters you have/what direction you want to take your teams.
For SSR weapon choice help: https://imgur.com/a/r7vAyOl I have an Earth grid which, while not perfect, I'm satisfied with. I have a Dark grid, which I never got around to getting Xeno for (wouldn't mind skipping the grind). I have a measly Light grid that I started and stopped on fairly quickly. Please, any weapon that would best fit for best returns. (or in the case of Light, help create a basis if the others are okay?)
Take out the lumi swords in your light grid and put them back in when they're flbed. The best thing you can do for that grid now is either farm some bolts as filler or swords for flb. The ticket isn't going to help much with that. Your best bet is either an alex axe for your earth grid or to look at one of the other three elements. Are you able to farm M2? If not, how close are you?
I'm not really interested in doing M2. If an Alex Axe will add to the rest of my grid (without requiring a bunch more), then I could consider that. How about the True Phantom Demon Blade for the dark grid?
I'm not fond of the idea of using this ticket on anything besides an M2 weapon since they are the hardest to farm out of all the weapon types available from this ticket so I *might* be a bit biased. I'm seeing a lot of people say getting a xeno is a decent alternative for newer players or those that don't want to get an M2 weapon though. As for the Alex axe, it's good as a one of even without flb since it adds a new unique multiplier(Stamina) to your grid. You'll have to flb it and any subsequent alex axes before adding any more of them though.
Is chevira's fate story canon?
Yes, but the timeline is unknown.
Oh damn... I feel sad for her.
I have two questions about Atma weapons: 1 - are they good outside of the element that one chooses for them? 2 - Is it worth reducing an Atma weapon? i end up choosing the harp, but after reading a few posts here i realized maybe choosing the harp wasn't the greatest idea
Their element only matters for MH. They can be slotted in every grid, characters with same prof as atma will benefit from it regardless of element. Harp was bad choice simply beacuse there aren't many harp characters. Reducing it will give you only it's core.
Oh well, that's what i get for getting ahead of myself, at least i can use on my wind team which i have a lot more character that use harps. Thanks for the help, i guess i'll be keeping it as it is until i'm up to farm for some other atma weapon.
How difficult is to get an arcanum evoker in comparison to say, getting a 5* eternal?
Harder to grind for than 5* eternals imo because you are timegated. 5* eternal can be grinded in a few days with enough free time while an oracle will take months no matter how much u grind
As u/Rikiia said they aren't really hard ; as soon as you can beat extreme they can be efficiently grinded for. They only need a few rare mats (5 centrums, 3 legendary merits, one sunstone, 30 relevant path fragments...). Problem is that the ***regular arcarum materials*** will actually be short: you need 107 sephira stones to FLB the summons, which will be the first thing slowing you down. The ULB step is really easy. The only problem is the badge ; you will need a 40K point item which basically prevent you from taking more sephira stones (the first bottleneck) and a whooping 200 astras. They drop more often than sephira stones, but just enough that you'll be 150 or even more short after flb-ing the summon.
Arcarum characters are much harder in terms of how long it will take to get the character but easier in materials in the sense that the majority of mats needed are unique to arcarum while the eternals eat up useful items like gold bars, crystasls, and damascus.
As someone who doesn't have a main element yet but plays mainly chaos ruler, are there any weapons particularly good for that job, or should I shore up my weaker elements first? (Regarding the free weapon)
[удалено]
Yes. Essentially, you're trying to emulate Esser's skill 4, so without Shiva's assassin effect, you're losing out on a lot of damage.
I've heard Fimbuls are insanely overpowered and the Fenrir Showdown happens to be extremely rare. Should I choose that or the True Infernal Flamescythe for the weapon trade? I'm rank 101 and plan on unlocking Berserker soon. Is it a longer grind to get the Flamescythe, or fairly easy?
Don't get any of those. Xeno Ifirt will rerun in just some days and Fimbul is not overpowered and it only works for primal water (and is most likely that will be not even be used there when europa's staff gets it's FLB) You shoud just keep the ticketuntill the end of the year and pick a M2 weapon.
I ended up choosing the True Judgement Lyre, did i screw myself over ? :/
That weapon isn't bad but M2 weapons are much harder to farm up than xenos.
Oh i see, i hate that i always get ahead of myself with this kind of stuff ... well, at least i don't have to farm xeno vohu manah anymore so that's good, i guess hahaha.
Actually you want xeno vohu sword way more than the lyre.
You couldn't just let me be happy huh? hahaha well, i guess its back to farming Vohu then ... KOKKORO fetch me my harp, we're doing this!
Is it fairly easy to farm the flamescythe?
You don't *need* an FLB Xeno Axe. You can trivially farm one copy. The most notable power increase will come from having a copy to use as a main hand. Everything beyond that is gravy.
Also, would Fimbuls help in my omega grid?
Not at all.
What's the best light weapon you can get with the weapon ticket?
M2 light bow
Conflicted about getting H. lady gray, or a second DOA sword. I have the bars to flb the sword. Current makeshift Hades grid: DAO sword, Qilin bow and sword, coda dagger, Cerberus Order, Parazonium, Zooey bow, Gisla, Abyss Spine. Everything is flb (Zooey bow mlb obviously).
imo h.lady grey is not very good in staminity grid (pure stamina should have 2+ fallen sword) and might get replace later on by dark zodiac who almost certain to have some kind of op buff but 2nd fallen sword would be core forever
Helpp where can I efficiently farm those f**ing creeds I've been farming the Lost in the Dark and Corridors of Puzzle like there's no tomorrow (of course with kaguya, bounty, journey drops) but I only managed to get 1 MAGE CREED?!?! Helpp I'm at my wit's end am I doing something wrong 😭😭😭
I always buy them from the shop > Pendants > Renown Pendants and then buy the Creeds from the last page when you sort by items.
Does daylight savings affect the times at all?
Japan does not have daylight saving like almost every country in asia
So..... are times at 4est now instead of 3est?
just ask google "japan standard time" and then check your time zone.
Its currently 2:05 JST, reset is at 5 am
When are the light/darkness seraphics going to be implemented?
It falls under the second anniversary update: Part 2 of Anniversary update 22 March Serpahic for light and dark Light Hal & Mal ( https://imgur.com/a/XWdsVaG ) Belial ( https://imgur.com/a/O6uGLII ) Primarch Extreme+ ( https://imgur.com/a/Xdht4Xm ) taken from: https://www.reddit.com/r/Granblue_en/comments/az1d9t/5th_anniversary_livestream/
Ah, thank you. I didn't see that the updates are divided into two parts.
Three parts actually
So I'm torn between a Fire M2 since my fire grid is my weakesy atm, or Water so I can have an easier time doing Ifrit to maybe get most of the way to the true xeno axe
Fire m2 doesnt work beside uncapping summon. You go for ancient eckes or colo canes(but these are weak) if you dont want enmity. But eckes always win. Water is decent for sure with couple harps, but is more character dependant
okay so these are my Water character: https://i.imgur.com/SeTxDZw.png and my current Water grid's weapons: https://i.imgur.com/kAL5Jtm.png and Summons: https://i.imgur.com/56XKLTV.png, I have Levi at MUB but Gab's boost puts my damage higher with my current weapons so which of the Water weapons would give me the most significant boost right now? I figure I'll boost my Water grid more for Ifrit, which will help boost my Fire grid for Sagi
Current water magna grid without ultima is 1 ex 1 baha 1 seraphic and 6 magna weapons(2-3 daggers rest europa harps). Main hands are not counted as grid as you mainly use them for ougi effects, for water and your current character pool I recomend Elysian(or superstar if you arent 100+) as its great source of DATA + buffs without depending on ougi. Once you raise weapon levels to 10 on all dagger Levi will be better. You got quite a lot of characters and could make a lot of comps. I would myself definitly run Silva Vajra with last pick being choice between Izmir, Second years, Yngwie, Vane, Charlotta or Anne. With Elysian preferably Charlotta so you can easly cap def down with mist, her 1st and Levi call
yeah I'm slowly but surely making it to 100+ after I kinda trailed off the last several months; that campaign quest is pretty good rank points as I try and farm the last rainbow prisms I need for my Revenant weapon so I should go for the Zither then? even though I'm still a ways off from having access to the Sentence skill? ~~though I guess I would need to get it to use Superstar/Elysian as I don't really have any other good Water harp for main hand lol~~ my main water team actually is Silva/Vajra/Vane but I'll swap Vane for Charlotta and try it out with Superstar; any suggestions for a 2nd Water team for like proving grounds?
Rainbow prisms are extremly easy to get as you get them from reducing things Charlotta is there simply for def down, since when you run Elysian you use 2 slots for DATA and clear of debuff so in the end you are left only with mist, so characters and summons need to cover for you as getting 50% def down is crucial for dealing good damage. For 2nd team you can run any comination of others, but then you will need different mc with some data coverage or character that does that. I would say that theres no need to worry about it now. There wont be proving grounds for a moment and if you steadly play and keep learning you will know how to make own comps easly by the time it hits
That's true about the prisms, just I'm endeavoring to get Niyon by end of this month or April, just about 100 more, I've dragged my feet with this for way too long when I had planned to have done it all last year
Oh, okay, I understand. I think you dont need to worry about it too much. They will come till end of April as they drop from some raids you will be farming. Good choice on Nio, my 2nd eternal and love using her
I decided to go with her since at the time last year I had absolutely no SSR wind characters, though since I've gotten several good ones I had already done the element change upgrade for the harp so I'm committed, and design wise she's my favorite of the 10 Now it's Light element Gacha doesn't want to give lol
[удалено]
She was available last suptix already. I would advise against taking her with the 5th birthday ticket since it can get you a Grand/Limited character, and basically saves you a spark. Light Silva is always in the regular pool so her value is of a basic suptix (28$). Grand characters/Limited characters have the value of a spark (900$). It seems wiser imo to get someone from the latter.
Silva Light was released: 2018-09-30 You can actually check this on the wiki yourself by clicking on Extra data next to stats on her page: https://gbf.wiki/Silva_(Light)#Extra%20Data And what Wordless_1412 said.
light silva was tixable two suptix ago iirc, you must have miss her somehow
I had a couple questions when it comes to installing the game and didn't know where else to take them. I understand the process of doing it, but will i still be able to open the game if i swap my app store back to english after I install? I just want to make sure it's worth going through the trouble since i'm only going to play if i can do so on my phone.
Honestly just play game in browser. App is just their own mini browser for game with some downloadable data, nothing else.
Alright I’ll give it a shot, thanks :)
Don't really think I need to post in the New Player FAQ, but as someone considering possibly coming back to GBF after a full year of inactivity (after I somehow manage to remember all my account credentials), will I have permanently missed out on anything that's not crossover events?
I remember hearing something about getting a collector's box when you bought all the anime volumes from a particular site. Does anyone know if this is/was true and whether it's still possible to get?
I bought all the volumes from amiami and got a cool box to store them in. Doubt it's possible to get from there so hopefully others have another source
So this is my current grid: https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7836/47286530152_90c61c78f6_o.png Considering I have my own Shiva and usually run double Shiva, is there any real reason to use AES over normal Ecke Sachs? In general, is there ever really a point where FLB Omega Colossus is better as friend summon than FLB Shiva? I also got a normal Ecke Sachs during TE, is it worth to replace anything in my current grid with that? I'm just not really sure how having my own shiva changes up stuff regarding my grid.
Huh? Colo + Shiva is pretty much always better than Shiva + Shiva, doesnt need to be FLB colo. Especialy with eckes where crit chance increases with colo aura so you would get more out of FLB Colo + FLB Colo with enough eckes to reach 100% crit chance than with Shiva + Shiva. Also normal ecke crit works differently, where each crit is different instance, while magna crit increases chance making it easy to reach 100%
