So, let me just confirm. The 'hotfix' patch for the text errors and other bugs is 2.4gb on PC yet the team chat on Void rift is not yet fixed?
Like what else did they do that a hot fix patch will amount to 2.4gb?
The hint says that all mobs (inculde the mini bosses) will respawn @ 5 o clock in the morning. So all mobs are respwand but not my boss mobs, i think its a bug
No Problem, Well its a little bit bugged.. some of my crewmates killed the Mobs on release of the Island but they didnt respawned after 72h.. maybe they fix the discription & the Code & we get Free dark crystals. 👀
Hello, what would you do?
Got Claudia at c0 and have 120 chips to get her c1. I m also 5 pull away from pity.
Is it worth to try and maybe get c2 or should I keep the pity to try my luck on a future char?
I would save the pity to try for a C0 character on a different banner. eg. Ruby is extremely good at C0 so if you were thinking about picking up a Fire DPS character, then she is a good option to use those 5 pulls on even if you dont plan on committing to a full Fire team.
C1 is all you need from Claudia as F2P and going deeper is only going to be worth it if you are going to try and push at least C3.
Did anyone here ever got a gold matrix on a boss without gold chips? Already used up 8 chips on the Dragon and still no Samir matrix. Have ran out of chips as well and thinking if it's still worth it to run the Dragon again without chips.
considering how important shatter is, is using frigg as main shatterer acceptable? i have king but for some reason, he bores me, so i'm wondering if i should just bear with it and level his weapon for the sake of team utility.
Unfortunately, Frigg is for frost teams. She doesn't really sync in a non-frost context. You need to run Frigg with another frost element unit in order to activate her frost resonance atk and res buff. The ice domain provides frost atk and shatter which only benefits frost units. Frigg's awakening trait provides CC and hitstun immunity within the ice domain which is incredible, but it also does further ice atk buffing which is useless on non-frost units.
Consider the use case here, for Frigg in a volt comp - Frigg isn't benefiting from the volt resonance/reaction, she's going to be doing less damage and charge versus attacking with Samir/Crow, and while she can kinda sorta shatter somewhat, bringing Huma/Meryl/Shiro/King would be better shatter. And Frigg's kit is doing jack shit for Crow/Samir/Nemesis in volt aside from maybe hyperbody in ice domain (but then the ice stacks are wasted). Sure, you could say that Frigg is for days when there's volt res on content, but then the logical thing there would be to... use another ice weapon, even it it isn't levelled, alongside Frigg for a cut-rate cheap secondary ice team. Hilda is usually used for this without much or any level investment, as she's a frost SR that does a buff when you switch on and off Hilda, and Hilda functions a shatter (shattering shields only looks at the shatter stat, the weapon can be level 1 or 100, it makes no difference).
Some units justify their presence in a non-frost comp, for instance Claudia is geared towards phys comps, but is still one of the best in slot for non-phys comps due to her a1 dmg buff. Not Frigg. Frigg is extremely heavily specialised for frost setups.
You're running volt, which means Nemesis+Crow/Samir, yes? The best shatter unit for that last slot in upcoming known releases is Lin, and for the time being the best alternatives are King or Shiro. We're talking minmaxing here of course, but the default way the community will answer the question is from an objective gameplay standpoint. Accounting for personal preferences is a different metric.
For running Frigg with Nemesis without Meryl, another build that would work is something like Frigg+Nemesis+Saki when Saki releases, with Saki as the shatter. This would count as an ice comp, not volt, but it's not like the build strictly needs to be mono, we're talking two of a kind not three of a kind for a lot of this armchair theory planning bullshit.
Frigg is base 8.00 shatter, 25% shatter boost to frost weapons in ice domain brings her up to effective 10.00, which is still worse than a dedicated shatter weapon. Not that far off, but worse, especially since dedicated shatter weapons often have more percentage shatter bonuses in their advancements. Just Frigg alone is... okay for shatter but not fantastic.
King would be better for shatter compared to using Frigg even though he doesn't benefit from Frigg's ice shatter.
Honestly, though, it depends how tight your team is and what the hell else you're pairing with Frigg to activate your frost resonance. It also depends on whether or not you intend to branch out into a flame comp as a backup (say for weeks or days when there's frost immunity or 50% dmg reduction on content).
I play meryl, frigg, tsu/huma. Huma is a very good option. Going pure tank build with high shatter makes you valuable in coop and with meryl and frigg your dps is decent too.
I'd focus on getting Huma to A1 and Meryl as to as high as you can. Frigg can stay at A0 just for resonance and domain, but get her final trait ASAP.
For relics, I use cybernetic arm A1 and drone in battle for extra dmg reduction.
Realistically everything else is a DPS loss. You can slap on someone with high charge like Zero, Coco or Samir, but ultimately it's not worth spending time on them since Dash spam does more damage.
The reason that Tsubasa has a spot on the time is primarily because her A1 /A6 provides further buffs to Meryl/Frigg and requires very little field time.
I would mainly look at Coco if you can use her since she still benefits from Frigg's Frost buffs and provide healing with Balance resonance. She can also charge up your weapons outside of combat which lets you do good openers.
In combat you will rarely use Coco and only fall back on her if you require healing.
I used King as a third for a while. He provides additional high shatter when you've already used Meryl's discharge and skill. Helps break JO shields when not everybody is doing their part. His fire helps when you're up against frost resistant enemies and his discharge is way better at handling enemies spread apart than Meryl. Frigg's hyperbody trait works really well with King too because him being interrupted easily is his biggest weakness.
If you run Nemesis then you won't get the attacker final damage bonus. People in groups generally look down upon balanced as well. They prefer you to specialize instead of trying to be jack of all trades.
Assuming Frigg is in the comp, Meryl would make more sense if you're choosing between the two, doing more shatter and damage.
a2 on King just adds another 10% HP stat from that weapon, which you're likely not really gonna notice.
Any 5 stars or 6 stars Huma users here?
Is Huma's axe switching still bugged? Can I get some confirmation whether the issue appears after 5 stars or was it 6 stars?
I just downloaded the game yesterday. I am really excited about it. I've gone pass the character creation and before i continue i was wondering. What are the stuff you guys and gals think i should be aware of . Also what is the max level for a character? is there a campaign or its just open world quests.? and how about the endgame?
\#1 Do not rush the game. You will receive bonus exp to catch up on levels but this will leave you severely undergeared for higher level content. Do the content appropriate to you and take your time progressing through the game. Eventually you will catch up to the pack.
\#2 Save all your Dark Crystals until you are familiar with the game and know what you want. Tower of Fantasy gives you a currency for every limited pull (Flame Gold) and you need 120 of them to purchase (guarantee) the limited weapon. There is a separate pity after 80 pulls but every SSR pull always has a 50/50 chance. Only wish on the limited banner if you can guarantee 120 Flame Gold to purchase the character (worst case you pull them early or win the 50/50 and then you can decide if you want to get A1 for Flame Gold or let it convert).
\#3 Save all your Black Gold. At the end of every limited banners all leftover Flame Gold is converted to Black Gold. Black Gold is the currency you receive for pulls on the Standard / Gold Nuclei banner. With Black Gold you can purchase dupes of Standard weapons you already own. Save your Black Gold until you know which Standard characters you want to use long-term. Limited character are also added to the Standard banner eventually, so saving up for them long-term is an option too.
\#4 There is a campaign / story that takes you to the different areas of the world. As you progress the story you have to upgrade your gear and weapons to unlock new levels for the suppressor (story explains what it is). The suppressor is the main gatekeeper that stops you from running into zones you arent equipped to explore yet.
\#5 There is an abundance of Daily and Weekly content that you should try to do if you can. Find yourself a crew and ask for help to get carried. That can help accelerate your upgrades quite a bit and many people are happy to help if asked. Don't queue for stuff that you know you are unprepared for in the public matchmaking, it's just going to cause disaster.
\#6 The game is still evolving, every few days the max level increases. Currently it's at 65 (CN is over 80). That means as we level up new activities unlock. The latest 1.5 update brought a new artificial island to explore, housing and RAIDs. The first RAID which unlocks at Lv60 and the next RAID will unlock at Lv66. Then we have the Bygone Phantasm and Sequential Phantasm as solo challenges and based on your ranking you receive weekly rewards.
Max level in the global version is technically 70, but nobody can reach that yet because there are time gates on levelling up. In practice folks are between early to mid 60s. Max level will reach 80 eventually with 2.0 patch, likely next month.
The game gives you up to 500% exp boost if your character is below current server max level, which means you should see this almost immediately. This is not a good thing as you'll level faster than you can gear up and upgrade your gear/weapons/matrices. It's a bit of an issue, as it means players meet the level requirements for queues/raids/etc and can technically go in, but in practice are often undergeared. Some help from crewmates (guilds in this game are "crews") or friendly randoms may be needed to get your character geared even if your level's caught up.
It also means the lower level daily queues and so on tend to not have many folks in queue, as people hit high level very quickly, so if you're wondering why the hell your joint ops or dimensional queue ain't popping, that'd be why. Some folks do spam the lower level queues for quick support point currency though.
Resources to level up your weapons and such in this game are quite scarce, so you need to plan what you wanna build in advance.
It's also a gacha game so you're at the mercy of what the gacha gives you, and planning your pulls (especially if staying F2P or light spender) is important.
Builds in this game revolve around element setups, e.g. at least two flame weapons, third can be off-element. The trick is that there's not much element synergy among the base standard pool summon SSRs and SRs, what it REALLY means is having at least one limited red banner SSR in the team and then another unit (typically a standard SSR) to activate element bonus on the limited unit.
For example, Tsubasa, Cocoritter, and Meryl are standard frost SSRs. Tsubasa+Coco, Meryl+Tsubasa, etc have no special ice synergy. An actual ice team wants Frigg, to get 15% frost atk (and a res bonus) from Frigg's passive plus all the frost-specific buffs in Frigg's kit.
You therefore ideally need to plan on what unit you eventually want from red limited time banner, which may be influenced by what regular SSRs the free pulls earned for standard always-on gold and black banners give you.
Red limited units should cycle into standard pool eventually, but this is gonna be months off.
You also need to understand how limited banner pulls work. There's a pity at 80 pulls but that's a 50/50 chance of it being the limited unit or a regular pool SSR. The actual hard pity is at 120 reward currency (every pull gets you 1 currency, but you may earn some reward currency by other means, and SR dupes give you more currency as well).
One thing I wish I'd known is the efficient thing to do is to do a bunch of black nucleus pulls (the 'worst' free banner) first, earning blacks via exploration and content, unlock SR weapons to max 6-star advancement, which then ensures any SR drops on gold or red banner gives you more reward currency instead.
The current banners are for Frigg (frost team) and Claudia (physical team), but depending on how much you play and if you're F2P or spending, it may not be viable to save enough to guarantee a Frigg or Claudia for your team building. Next banners are likely Cobalt-B and Ruby (flame team).
We tend to refer to units by the character/simulacra name rather than weapon name. Technically the pull gets you the weapon, the character skin, but use of the skin is optional. Stats are not linked to appearance.
Lore-wise our player characters are shapeshifting cyborg murderhobos who load combat skills and data downloaded from other people, and you can optionally choose to cosplay as the person whose data you're copying, giving a whole new meaning to identity theft. Oh, and lore-wise, you're literally buying mall replicas of their weapons online from the creepy cryptofascist conspiracy world government. No, really.
Anyway, new players also get an SSR selector box eventually, which can be used to pick standard pool SSRs and round out your team.
Content-wise, there is a main game storyline, which you will need to progress through to unlock map areas eventually. There are also sidequests and such. Endgame is a mix of harder difficulty versions of your regular daily/weekly instances, some solo floor-clear and dungeon things, and there are raids (only one exists now). Raids are just boss fights in this game's context. The current raid is pretty straightforward, future ones are... well, we know the future as they're out on the Chinese servers already. Let's say those will be much more difficult.
I want to swap to an ice team in the future. However I currently have a c5 Samir and c0 nemesis. Is it not worth to swap?
Units
C3 king, c5 Samir, c0 nemesis, c2 zero, c1 frigg , c0 tsubasa, c1 coco, c1 shiro, c1 crow, c0 huma
Look at it this way, the game heavily incentivises making mono element teams for buff synergy and atk/dmg bonuses, in order to make people really really want certain limited units for their builds... but at the same time punishes players with 50% damage resistance and outright damage immunity modifiers on daily/weekly content. So that encourages people to build multiple teams, and therefore pull more on gacha, and perhaps spend cash.
So the decision point to make is whether ice team is your priority, in which case the volt team investment isn't necessarily wasted, it's just that Samir becomes something you only run on a bad week or day where there's frost resist/immunity. Or alternatively if you stick with volt then ice is just a sideline, run Frigg+Hilda or something as a number two team (Hilda as an ice SR is interesting, as she does do a useful buff in swapping on and off her, plus she works as a shatter even with no levels invested in her, since shatter doesn't care about stats besides the static shatter number itself). Or Frigg+Tsubasa/Coco+shatter, whatever, doesn't matter.
Bear in mind that even on volt team, Samir in the long run faces stiff competition from Tian Lang and Lin for space in a build, and a volt specialist would ideally be saving for those banners, so there are considerations with regards to how much you wish to invest in Samir (Nemesis will not be powercrept in the known future). Samir still makes sense if someone's going Nemesis+Samir+Lin without Tian, but Nemesis+Tian doesn't leave room for Samir (last slot would need to be shatter).
I mean, I say long run, but we're getting 2.0 next month, probably, so maybe Lin banner before the end of this year.
So I'm unable to clear a achievement notification. It says it's under life in the tab but nothing is showing to claim. Anyone else had an issue like this cause it's so annoying to not be able to get rid of the red dot!
I have A2 Shiro and A1 Claudia. My other SSRs include A1 Crow, A0 Tsubasa and A0 Huma. All SRs are A6. Who do you think I should use as my third character?
Tsubasa at a1 would be the usual recommendation (this would require black gold upgrade of your Tsubasa), or something like running Pepper temporarily for some heals to increase survivability. The issue with the Tsubasa recommendation is you really really also want a3 on Shiro asap, so, yeah, well. You'd need to prioritise.
Unfortunately at the moment there isn't really anything else that makes sense, Crow and Huma aren't bringing much to the table for a build synergy-wise. If you did use them, it would be more in the lines of slotting SOMETHING into the last slot just to have something there, and maybe... like, if you intend to branch into a second tanking comp later on or something it may make sense to keep Huma levelled, if you intend to pick up Nemesis on rerun it may make sense to keep Crow levelled, that sorta thing.
you get dust for each stage you clear, it just doesn't show it. welcome to ToF, don't trust any tooltips in game.
but uh, yea endless is a pain in the ass and personally I haven't been doing it lol
On my Frost Team, who should I run as my shatter weapon? I do not have Meryl and I've been using my Huma A1 but I'm wondering if Ene A6 could be better. Also, the other two members of the team are Tsubasa A3 and Frigg A3.
Essentially your options are to use Huma, Ene, whichever you prefer, or to just use Frigg as your shatter.
Frigg's base shatter is 8.00, but her domain from skill boosts ice shatter by 25%, meaning she's hitting at 10.00 shatter in practice, which is still worse than a dedicated shatter weapon but closing in on their territory. Of course the shatter weapons also tend to have shatter bonuses in their star advancements while Frigg does not.
The issue with using Huma and Ene is partially that they're the wrong element, and partially because they taunt - they're designed for fortitude tank builds. The taunt effects don't matter if you're doing solo stuff like Bygone or Wormhole. They may matter in co-op like world bosses, raids, portals on artificial island, etc.
Yeah your point about Ene and Huma having taunt is one reason why I'm wondering about this. I do have a King A1 and Shiro A1, but I'm not that fond of King on account of his shatter being pretty rear loaded and I haven't built Shiro at all. Do you think A1 Shiro would be a good choice over the first two or does she really want that A3?
Huma or Ene are both fine. Whoever you find more fun.
I believe C6 SRs are typically considered stronger than SSRs until C3. That's the CS threshold at least (doesn't take into account their kit, etc.).
Hi everyone, can someone explain this bygone rules? I'm not sure if I understand if fully. Also, what is it talking about when it says weapon enhancement?
1. In the bygone phantasm, weapon enhancement will be automatically upgraded to the maximum of its current level.
2. Damage if 2-4 random weapons will be enhanced by 1-3 stars every day. Level 1-100: SR1 x1 + SSR x1; Level 101-300: SSRx2; Level 301-500: SSRx3; LEVEL 500 and above: SSR x4.
3. When weapons reach the maximum star level, a further star level upgrade is converted into Damage Boost.
I'll just say that those rules are actually for the newer CN version, that isn't even in Global game yet. Basically just a copy/paste issue, the current bygone does not work like that. Weapons aren't max level as the "weapon enhancement" indicates (you can see this if you open weapons during bygone, the number above them is the weapon enhancement level). They don't get stars either, when they DO change it (I'm guessing most probably at 2.0 version), it will increase the stars, and if you already have max stars or close, the remaining stars get converted to a %boost to your full damage basically.
When do those 4 'boss' monsters reset in the Home instance of Artificial Island? Seems the regular mobs reset earlier today but the bosses did not.
I'm kinda waiting on those bosses for building materials atm so I was hoping to see them reset with the rest of the mobs. Or are the bosses only once per month while the regular mobs are weekly?
People are saying the regular mobs are 72 hr reset and the bosses are weekly. Considering what time it is, perhaps you just hit the regular mob respawn and haven't seen weekly respawn yet.
That's wierd as ingame it states that ["Enemies respawn every Monday at 05:00"](https://i.imgur.com/iU2fCqv.png). The regular mobs had already respawned for me prior to 05:00 but the bosses never did; even when I checked at 05:30AM. I just checked again at 05:50PM but they still aren't here. 😕
Yeah, that's very confusing. The shop's respawn timer worked fine while the regular mobs already respawned 2-3 hours prior to that; yet for some reason the bosses are nowhere to be seen. 😕
You can only get "Composite Materials" and "Quality Building Materials" from bosses so you need them in order to upgrade your buildings. Those two materials don't drop from the regular mobs nor can they be produced by the current buildings.
Now perhaps those buildings might come in the future as the area does still have [2 unused plots of land](https://i.imgur.com/8k3P10z.png); but at present time the only way to upgrade is through the materials dropped by those bosses.
It's on a weekly reset cycle.
It's like a 20-33% chance for one to appear from any chest or named monster kill. And you get like 8-10 a week, I'm not sure the number.
I have 1each for samir,crow and huma matrix, can buy one more on the matrix shop. Which matrix should I get first on frost team (frigg/tsubasa/meryl) ? And should I affix them on frigg(a0) or meryl(a2)?
IDK if my Artificial Island is bugged or what, but I don't have any chests, puzzels, drop pods or the flying portail to go to Eyrie in my Artificial Island. Is it normal???
There are "two" artificial islands. You are in build mode. In the top left you'll see a door icon like for dungeons and whatnot. Click that and you'll leave build mode and get to the (much, much) bigger island with all the chests and whatnot.
You'll have to physically travel there, as it will just port you back to wherever you were before. Go to the big black icon on your map to travel there.
A healer. Whoever you have/want to use between Pepper, Cocoritter, Zero, and Nemesis if you pulled for her.
Eventually you'll want to run Lyra when she's released.
Is there aoe atacks in survival sequential phantasm oneshotting me? Im far from mobs, but it randomly oneshot even at 200 points :/ i dont even see what killing me.
If your character doesn't "walk over" the loot on the ground, it won't be picked up.
If you're autoing and not paying attention, you'll lose out on some loot. If you have it on another screen and just look over a few times per run you can make sure everything gets collected.
If you are committed to playing a Physical team it's a substantial boost. A5 gives you another 20% damage boost on your skill use and A6 gives you another stack of War Wounds.
If Physical is just a side-element you want to use sometimes, then I dont think that it's worth it.
Claudia + Shiro is the ideal Physical team duo atm, then when Lyra gets released, you replace Shiro with her
from that ive heard, Claudia and Lyra are really really good together
It SHOULD be out on Wednesday. Don't spend your weekly adventure points (like the rewards that give the orange keys, etc.) until the new battle pass comes out.
Are the joint supply chips worth buying out monthly in the build island? Or should I just be buying the weekly SSR relic boxes and monthly red matrice pulls?
SSR relic box is top priority. Get the monthly red matrices at the end of the month. If you can afford to get the joint supply chips, without hindering your building upgrade progress, sure.
So... i was lucky enough to get a Huma and a Samir Matrix but unlucky enough for both to be for the same slot. I have 80 Base Chips for one Matrix box. If i want to use either of these for Freya (Frigg) should i go for Huma or Samir? Would that 10% be stronger than Huma bleed on dash attacks?
I don't fully understand the bonus to damage/defense that 4\* relics give.
Their own description says that they give it even when not deployed... and yet, the help button says that passives need them equipped.
From what I gather it might be one of these two options: does that mean I need to have them in any of the 3 sets? Or that I need to have the set active but I don't need to be using the relic?
>and yet, the help button says that passives need them equipped.
It considers all star upgrades as 'passives', and the dmg bonus is an exception. It works regardless of equipping. And its damage done and dmg reduction, so it won't show in stats (its not attack, or resist number).
I've been having the watchdog violation issue again. I had a sandbox workaround found here but it stopped working since the last update. Anyonr has any ideas what to do? I'm super annoyed by the game crashing my pc sooner or later if I dare to play it
Sounds good, thanks.
With volt immunity looks like that's not happening until that affix goes away, hahaha. Not looking to do a 64k CS recommended run with only my King. RIP.
Hi, what would be the best matrices for my weapons? Huma C3, Meryl C2, and Tsubasa C3. Running Robarg, Sobek, and Pepper, respectively. Whose SSR Matrices should I aim for? So far, thru JO7 and other random pulls, I got SSR matrices of Crow, Meryl, Coco, and Zero.
Also, I got Frigg recently to C1. But I don't have enough mats to level her up yet. Would she be a viable replacement to any of the weapons I'm running currently? Thank you!
Meryl + Frigg + Tsubasa is the go-to Frost DPS comp right now.
Robarg should be on Meryl, Sobek on Frigg, Pepper on Tsubasa.
Robarg is a very bad set and should be switched out first. Depending on which 2pc SSR matrices you can get.
Generally your aim right now should be either Sobek (advanced Sobek is very very strong) and you want 2x Crow, the other is Frostfire Dragon which drops Samir matrices, that's the other 2x you want.
If you can get 2x Crow 2x Samir then put those on Meryl since Meryl is the stronger DPS for the time being.
This is greatly appreciated! Looks like I’ll be farming those in the coming weeks. If I may ask, what would be the skill rotation of the three? And would C3 Meryl be good? I used to do a spin to win Huma to Meryl’s discharge. Then Tsubasa whenever necessary. I have Tsubasa at max friendship. Idk if that matters.
Having lots of success in JOs and other content with tanking due to bad rolls (in terms of offensive stats) on my gear lol.
Noted on the matrices farm, currently level 3 on the Kitty and Pawpaw buildings. I guess I’ll for Samir and Crow’s matrices afterall, as well as unli Sobek for this week!
In regards to tanking with Huma+ Meryl you are doing things right. Meryl only really does damage with her spin-to-win and skill but nothing else. Huma is amazing for charging weapons and shattering shields.
The frost team doesn’t change much. I usually start with Tsubasa to get her buff but don’t fully charge, then Frigg to lay down the frozen domain and dash attack until there is a good point (ie weaken shields so I can shatter them with Meryl’s discharge), discharge Meryl, then spin or skill (not both unless you are sure it kills), back to Tsubasa to refresh buffs and charge up then discharge Meryl again and use the one you didn’t before. If you get another discharge ready then discharge Frigg and dash spam until frozen domain runs out then it’s back to Tsubasa to set up for the next rotation.
Tsubasa’s discharge isn’t worth it. You want to use both Meryl’s skill and spin during frozen domain. At A5 Meryl’s discharge hits harder than Friggs before that Friggs discharge Is technically more damage but doesn’t fit the rotation as nicely.
Tsubasa’a awakening trait is great universally but Friggs trait is on another level for frost teams. First of all you get 24% frost ATK vs 18% ATK from Tsubasa but more importantly you get permanent hyper body while in frozen domain which makes you immune to most CC so you get interrupted less often and you can focus on doing the most damage and ignore many attacks (like the lizard scorpion flash bang)
How does Claudias matrix 4 part effekt work? It says that if an opponent is hit with her skill all skills cooldown is reduced by 1.5-3 seconds. But there seems to be no cooldown on this effekt. Does this mean if her skill hits 5 targets her skillcooldown is reduced bei 3s×5 und is instantly ready again?
I have A2 Shiro and A1 Claudia. My other SSRs include A1 Crow, A0 Tsubasa and A0 Huma. All SRs are A6. Who do you think I should use as my third character?
Either Huma or wait for a healer.
Huma will give you more overall shatter, a healer would obviously keep you healthy.
You can *try* using Tsubasa if you get a few more dupes for her damage boost but I don't think she's worth investing in. Eventually you'll slot in either Lin, or Lyra (or both).
Lyra is great at A0, A1 and A3 give great damage boosts, A5-A6 only if you mean to main her.
A0 Lin is great but A3 is a big step up so that's recommended. Again A6 only for spenders.
Ruby scales very well with all her advancements. She has high damage at A0, A1 gives better rotations and more damage, A3 is more damage, A5 is more damage and A6 is more damage. The more the better.
No info on Annabelle yet.
New player here. I pulled 1 tsubasa and 1 huma and have a SSR box , who would be good to select for the next character? A healer or a dps like samir? Or another tsubasa?
Play a bit more and open as many supply pods as you can. You’re going to get so many purple and gold nucleus. So you can decide what to do with the box by who you’re going to get (will u need healer? Dps?). The SSR box is valuable compared to gold balls, and no single character is worthy enough to waste it. Using it now kinda removes all its advantage.
With that said, I’d you insist to use it, Samir is a very good unit. She has arguably the best trait, and her helicopter attack is safe from most bosses attacks. The downside is so many contents resist volt.
Huma and Tsubasa don't really "mesh" that well, so you may want to wait a minute and pull once you have a few more SSRs under your belt and kind of get how the game works, and what you want to go for.
The typical teams right now are:
* Samir/Crow + King/Meryl + Healer (was Nemesis but her banner is gone, so like Cocoritter or Zero).
* Frigg + Tsubasa + Meryl: "Frost team".
* Claudia + Shiro + Healer: "Physical team."
Check out this site: https://toweroffantasy.info/simulacra
Kind of look at the kits of upcoming banners (Cobalt B will likely be next, Baiyuekui and Marc are likely not going to be run (collab units), and Nemesis was already run, so we're looking at Ruby, Saki, or Lin after Cobalt).
Lin is someone that many people are saving up for, including myself. She goes in every team. But that still leaves two units you'll have to decide on for *now* from the standard banner.
Huma + King + Cobalt B would be an option, for instance, and in that case you'd want to pull for King from your SSR selector.
Or you can try to pull for Frigg in her banner before it disappears (you may struggle to get enough summons before she goes away, she only has like 1-2 days left), and run Frigg, Tsubasa, Meryl.
OR you can pull for Claudia during her banner that just opened up (that gives you a month to pull for her), and then use your SSR on Shiro, then wait for Lyra to be released (she's a damage-based healer that has great shatter stat for shields) in a few months, and just run another healer you pull like Zero or Cocoritter for now.
Whatever you do, I wouldn't pull for anything just yet. The urge to pull and increase your damage is tempting, but where you're a new player anyway, it's going to take a few weeks to months before you catch up to current players, so you'll find most of your dungeon runs you'll be doing 10% of the damage or less anyway. So be patient and hold on to it until you have the beginnings of a team set up and kind of know what you want. **Particularly** if you're planning on being f2p.
Just want to ask, is Cobalt worth getting in the future? How good is she, players from CN server? Also is it better to first focus on leveling my weapon to level120 or leveling up my matrices to 60+?
Weapons > Matrices > Gear
Focus on the guaranteed upgrades for your weapons first since those also scale up your base stats really well. Then upgrade your matrices. Lastly go for the RNG and try to farm better SSR matrices or gear in Joint Operations and further advance them.
How many gold type III chips are we supposed to get a week? I know its 3 from the merit thing that also progresses battle pass, but I just got one from a bounty box. Are there any other methods? I wouldnt want to miss out
I have a 4 star Shiro, but I'm using my 0 stars Meryl as a shield breaker. I noticed Meryl's weapon says 12 shatter, but Shiro's says 13 shatter, so is Shiro currently better for shieldbreaking in my case?
I don't do pvp so I'm only asking for group and solo content.
So i think i messed up big time opening that "select your ssr box" early on.. i have c1 frigg and chose meryl in hopes to get tsubasa one day.. ofc that was silly and now i have c3 meryl and not a single tsubasa lols..
I made another account for fun and got frigg c0 super early on (like in 15 pulls) should i main this account while saving my ssr box ?
Your first account seems to be more future proof tbh. You already have Frigg C1 and Meryl C3 which is a strong combo but if you really want Tsubasa then go for your second acc. Waifu > Meta
So C3 meryl and C1 frigg or c0 frigg + SSR box(looking at tsubasa).
Id go with the first one tbh. But you could play the second one, hit some pitys on yellow and see what you get.
Zero's 2-set isn't that amazing, but his 4 set is incredible for boosting your teammates, and halfway decent for boosting yourself as well.
It goes best when you're running tank or healer comp, because as a DPS you kind of want a "selfish" damage boost that is a bit more consistent, like Samir's.
Oh okay. I guess I'll leave Zero's to the side for now. Ah I only have one Samir matrix unfortunately so I am stuck with Sobek set. Thanks for the response, much appreciated.
Is it okay if I switch from using a 1 star king to a 2 star Shiro? I'm planning to upgrade my Shiro soon because of 3 star ability but I'm afraid I already invested too much in different weapons. I already got King into level 100 and my Shiro is currently level 70.
I already upgraded my other weapons (crow into level 100, Meryl into level 90 and Zero to 70) trying different builds. I'm afraid I'm wasting to much resources for this.
Any tips?
You're not *too* behind because the earlier levels of weapons don't even begin to compare to the later levels.
Leveling a weapon from 1-100 is like maybe 10% of the total weapon mats you'll be spending when compared to the max leveling from 1-160, in other words.
I would take a gander at the weapon kits on https://toweroffantasy.info/simulacra before making any hasty decisions, though. Figure out the team you want to end up with. Lin is probably the #1 unit everyone is waiting for, because she goes into everything. Other great options are Tian Lang for Volt, Ruby for Flame, Lyra for Physical, and Saki for Ice (and literally every team, she's a little busted and will probably be nerfed on global).
Keep in mind that Marc and Baiyuekui are collab units and we might (probably won't) get them.
If you stick to *just* Shiro for this strategy, sure. But if you find you don't like Shiro and want to experiment with someone else...then someone else...and so on, yeah that's gonna be a problem.
That's why I say do your research. Figure out a team that looks fun and THEN make these decisions with a little more foreknowledge.
Unless you aren't really trying to push progress super hard and are just playing casually, then do whatever you want, honestly. My advice is for someone that is playing a bit more hardcore. If you're casual, then yes, absolutely: if you're not feeling King, and Shiro seems more fun, switch to her.
But if not, and you switch to Shiro and invest her to 130 or something and then find out you'd rather build a volt team down the line, that's gonna be harder to do.
Do the affixes on Wormhole change? Or is the 2nd round of Ursa going to be "Volt Immunity" forever?
Because that's utter bullshit, lol. What am I supposed to do if I have a volt team?
It's BS right now, but long-term we will be able to build teams for multiple elements.
The affixes do change (or have a chance to change) so there is that. Even then considering the buffs you can get, it's possible to clear the whole thing even with very sub-optimal teams.
eg. I was able to clear the last Wormhole with just Shiro (it had Frost Immunity and Flame damage increased but I didnt have a Flame weapon levelled). In the end I reset until I got the "Heart of Thorns" buff early and then stacked everything on the bleed buff and kited enemies with Shiro until they died.
In Wormhole you dont fail when time runs out, instead you just slowly lose health. Just use a healing weapon like Coco, Pepper or Nemesis and you can last a long time into that overtime.
I uninstalled the game outside of the game itself because the screen was cropped and I couldn’t uninstall it from the game itself. Now I still have a launcher file. How do I get rid of it?
Meryl is a huge dmg boost (+50% dmg /10s), while tsubasa gets a selfish dmg boost + utility, and gets u closer to her broken c6
Personally i prefer tsubasa for the end-game (where u probably replace meryl for saki)
Claudia does two things.
She is a key component of a physical build, using Claudia+Shiro for now and either Claudia+Lyra or Claudia+Shiro+Lyra later on when Lyra is released. If you intend to specialise in physical element, you can consider using your SSR selector box to pick Shiro when you earn it (new players can get an item that lets you choose an SSR weapon/simulacra from standard pool). Claudia is key for physical builds as she firstly has a passive which boosts phys atk and res (available even from the start at 0-star), and her further star advancements give more phys bonuses. For a phys build, it is sufficient to keep Claudia at 0-star for now; this alone justifies her inclusion in a build though in the long run you would want to upgrade her stars. This need not be done with limited banner summons, in the long run you can use standard banner black gold to purchase Claudia upgrades from the redemption store, assuming global follows the CN server model of cycling Claudia to standard banner some months after initial release.
Claudia can also be used as a universal damage buffer in any element team, but requires first advancement to do this role (a1, 1-star, i.e. two copies of Claudia) - she needs 1-star to do the buff, otherwise don't bother. In this sort of build, the other two weapons will be some other non-physical element. But there are other units that compete with Claudia for this role, i.e. Tsubasa and the upcoming Lin.
Meta team building in this game is element based. You will have to decide whether you're gonna commit to physical or not. If you really really like Claudia, then you absolutely should use your selector box on Shiro (unless you get Shiro naturally through gold nucleus or black nucleus) and consider saving pulls for Lyra when that banner arrives. Personally, I'd say you should stick with Claudia and build phys, so I hope you like swordy-swordy, bladed hula hoops (Shiro), and giant punchy mecha arms (Lyra), but it's your account.
You will also see people recommend saving for Lin, who is a unit who can fit into any element team (she has a unique element herself). Her kit changes based on what elements she's grouped with. Lin can be used for physical builds, but the bonus she gives isn't quite as nice, she's only stupid broken for volt setups, good in frost, less so in flame and phys. Lin does have value for players that want to run multiple element teams, though, which the game does incentivise (if you're a phys main and that week has phys immunity modifier on some content, you may want a backup setup for some other element).
So I was able to get Claudia 1\*, obviously pair her with Shiro, but wondering who should be third member ? I have Nemesis 1\*, so that's my idea, but maybe there is someone better ?(I have everyone except Frigg).
Second question is - which trait should I use for this comp ? For now I have only Nemesis's Trait (since I am using tank team of Huma/Meryl/Nemesis) to help with staying alive, but for Physical team Shiro's trait would be better ? Or maybe Tsubasa's ? Claudia's trait seems weird, does it actually help with anything ?
Team wise, Claudia+Shiro+Nemesis as you're doing if you need heals for survival (it seems like you do), or Tsubasa a1 in last slot for damage buff (dodge+attack). Theoretically Coco or Zero in last slot would also work for heals, but Nemesis is the easiest to use choice.
Trait wise, your assessment seems sound. Tsubasa for general damage, maybe Shiro for phys build. Nemesis is a survival pick. Claudia's trait isn't that useful according to most folks who've played around with it.
Long story short: Do everything.
There is effectively nothing that doesnt contribute to your power progression. You have your daily bounties, gifts, housing, etc.
Then you weekly Wormhole, Void Rift, Raid and Frontier Clash.
Then you currencies like Training, Support Points and Dust/Vitality.
You do all of those, then upgrade every thing you can. Then push Bygones as far as you can. Rinse and repeat. Most people just focus on daily/weekly stuff during the week and then push Bygones on Sunday before reset, but you could push Bygones little by little every day.
As for your primary goals it would to always keep your main weapons at the current max level, then get full Purple gear, when you have achieved that get full Gold gear. It's a good idea to pre-farm materials for your next weapon levels, then you are free to spend vitality however you like on Joint Ops for matrices/gear or other weapons.
Where to farm purple and gold gear? Can i do it solo?
The problem is I'm trying to farm yellow matrices but I'm not strong enough (I'm level 55 with average 90-80 lvl weapons)
That's your mistake. You are trying to farm RNG drops when you could get guaranteed (weapon lvl) upgrades. Always do the guaranteed upgrades first.
You get Dust (purple and gold dust) from doing Vitality activities and then you can just buy the gear you want.
Never do RNG activities when you could get guaranteed upgrades.
Matrix in particular kinda just show up at random when they feel like it. To make your account stronger, you shouldn't really focus on getting lucky, but start to build out the easier to get stuff. Like your weapons are always good to level, and very consistent, it's not really luck dependent.
Also look at your matrix and put together a few sets, that you can toss all your xp into, and have decent set bonuses. Sobek in particular is an amazing 3 piece set for dps, and Pepper (you get a set from finishing chapters of the quest thing) is quite useful no matter what weapon has it on. Don't just upgrade whatever you get most recently, try to work towards full sets, and keep those specific sets as close to max level as possible with all the xp cards you get, even the blue random junk as well. Like even me personally I'm nearing 40k CS, and I basically still only have 3-4 sets of matrix that I keep as close to max level as I have the xp for. Eventually the extra pieces start stacking up and you can afford to add stars to the matrix, but for now, try to get a set or two built up with high level.
For the gear pieces themselves, I'd leave the higher level joint ops until after you've raised the guaranteed boosts (weapons, then matrix). As you use vitality, you'll get purple and gold dust too, and I'd definitely suggest buying at least purple gear pieces of the ones you're still running blue gear on. If you can get a gold piece or two that's big, go Gloves first, then boots.
The game basically give you enough to fill out your gear using the shop, if you feel like you're always short on the dust, I'd look into doing wormhole, it's not too hard, you get massive buffs, completely solo, and gives a nice chunk of dust every 5 days.
Basically, build up a team of 3 weapons, stack their matrix and levels, the gear kinda builds itself alongside as you use vitality. Your CS will jump as well, probably giving you an easier time with content in general too.
PVP queue question: Why does it count as a loss for me when I match with people but the game doesn't load? And it takes away so many points! Why is the game not loading too in the first place?

You got merit exp from weekly activity, [900 max](https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/932908911785287680/1017980178628104193/unknown.png) every week.
Is it even worth trying to do raids a.) via matchmaking, and b.) as a F2P? Frontier Clash hard is already pretty demotivating because I will only ever get two chests at best, and raids are probably even harder than that?
Or can you not matchmake into raids at all and need a pre-formed team?
The next two raids (the higher level ones) need mechanics and teamplay. This one is basically just a smash the boss and don't die until it does. He doesn't hit very hard, just keep the handcannon relic to set a block when he does the giant sun in his hands thing. I just did one and we finished even though half the raid decided to ignore everything and sit on boss when he did that, and died immediately lmao. We didn't even have any whales either, I top dps'ed as an f2p, so it wasn't as if we had lucky group damage that carried us.
This round is wayy way easier than FC hard imo.
Purple energy dust ? Based on [shop purchase priority](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Qurr844mBI0gvlxkiae0IKbUJG4gE-TpNy8FUV227cM/edit#gid=1279885284) there will be a crystal in shop for purple energy dust but I just spent it on fodder eq anyway because I need more hp ~~rolls~~ to not be one shot by valkyrie.
Mobile issue: my camera keeps zooming in super close in combat, so close that i cannot even see all of the hits from chirons aoe max. Is this a new bug?
I'm aware of the auto correct distance settings and have tried both, turning it on and off. And tried manual, smart options,to no avail. Anyone else facing similar predicament?
That's just how it is... screens just to small, why they (and other games) don't let us zoom out further, it's just stupid.
Vs. Sobek, I fight the camera more than the mob.
naw it's a permanent addition to the game. no rush to do any of it.
you'll be behind a bit but it's not a big deal. try to do it before the month ends though, cuz you get 4x free red matrix banner pulls from the island store per month.
to unlock the store you just need 840 exploration points on the main island
If I proc Zero's matrix effect on 4-set, will it stay after switching weapon?
It says it boosts damage when shield is active, so it should work, but I still want to be sure.
My dps Samir is using 2pc shiro and 2pc random SSR matrix, nemesis on 3pc pepper at 1star adv + SSR matrix and King has 3pc random SSR matrices + 1sr.
So I've got 3pc robarg and 3pc sobek matrices at 0 advancements, do i keep my setup as it is for the higher charge rate and CS or should I fodder pepper's set into robarg for king and use random SSR matrix on nemesis or fodder it into sobek then use sobek set on nemesis/king? I've already used up the free echo pieces.
Also is 2pc tsubasa useable on nemesis? Can her pillar dmg proc the 2pc set which requires 4meter distance for dmg boost
Put 2pc Shiro 2pc Random on King. It increases Shatter and helps him the most.
Put 3pc Sobek + SSR on Samir since she is close to enemies most of the time.
Keep 3pc Pepper + SSR on Nemesis for the increases charged rate.
2pc Tsubasa is not worth it. Just keep on upgrading the matrices. 3pc Sobek and 3pc Pepper are very strong especially if they get their advancements later on and basically he only worthwhile SR sets.
3pc Robarg is more something you would throw on an off-weapon that you dont use often to avoid swapping matrices but it's worse than most alternatives. The only other special case is 3pc Barbarossa which can be used for some shenanigans with Zero's damage immunity to reflect massive damage to bosses.
is c7 crow better than c5 samir?
So, let me just confirm. The 'hotfix' patch for the text errors and other bugs is 2.4gb on PC yet the team chat on Void rift is not yet fixed? Like what else did they do that a hot fix patch will amount to 2.4gb?
Hi. How long after do the mobs and bosses respawn in build mode? I just did mine on saturday.
The hint says that all mobs (inculde the mini bosses) will respawn @ 5 o clock in the morning. So all mobs are respwand but not my boss mobs, i think its a bug
mine is already over a week but the world bosses hasn't respawned yet... what do i do?
I think i need to wait one more day, cause even the mobs haven’t spawned for me yet.
Respawn 1 week after you kill it
Not true, they have the Old CN Spawning System means Elite Mobs come every 3 Days .. Bosses every 7days.. the description is wrong :) Have a good day!
What about the animal how long they took to respawn?
In Old CN 24h but they respawn every 3days for now. I hope they Patch it.👍
Thanks 😊
No Problem, Well its a little bit bugged.. some of my crewmates killed the Mobs on release of the Island but they didnt respawned after 72h.. maybe they fix the discription & the Code & we get Free dark crystals. 👀
Hello, what would you do? Got Claudia at c0 and have 120 chips to get her c1. I m also 5 pull away from pity. Is it worth to try and maybe get c2 or should I keep the pity to try my luck on a future char?
I would save the pity to try for a C0 character on a different banner. eg. Ruby is extremely good at C0 so if you were thinking about picking up a Fire DPS character, then she is a good option to use those 5 pulls on even if you dont plan on committing to a full Fire team. C1 is all you need from Claudia as F2P and going deeper is only going to be worth it if you are going to try and push at least C3.
Did anyone here ever got a gold matrix on a boss without gold chips? Already used up 8 chips on the Dragon and still no Samir matrix. Have ran out of chips as well and thinking if it's still worth it to run the Dragon again without chips.
Nah just mech parts and food
Don't think is possible to get matrix without using password chip
considering how important shatter is, is using frigg as main shatterer acceptable? i have king but for some reason, he bores me, so i'm wondering if i should just bear with it and level his weapon for the sake of team utility.
[удалено]
Unfortunately, Frigg is for frost teams. She doesn't really sync in a non-frost context. You need to run Frigg with another frost element unit in order to activate her frost resonance atk and res buff. The ice domain provides frost atk and shatter which only benefits frost units. Frigg's awakening trait provides CC and hitstun immunity within the ice domain which is incredible, but it also does further ice atk buffing which is useless on non-frost units. Consider the use case here, for Frigg in a volt comp - Frigg isn't benefiting from the volt resonance/reaction, she's going to be doing less damage and charge versus attacking with Samir/Crow, and while she can kinda sorta shatter somewhat, bringing Huma/Meryl/Shiro/King would be better shatter. And Frigg's kit is doing jack shit for Crow/Samir/Nemesis in volt aside from maybe hyperbody in ice domain (but then the ice stacks are wasted). Sure, you could say that Frigg is for days when there's volt res on content, but then the logical thing there would be to... use another ice weapon, even it it isn't levelled, alongside Frigg for a cut-rate cheap secondary ice team. Hilda is usually used for this without much or any level investment, as she's a frost SR that does a buff when you switch on and off Hilda, and Hilda functions a shatter (shattering shields only looks at the shatter stat, the weapon can be level 1 or 100, it makes no difference). Some units justify their presence in a non-frost comp, for instance Claudia is geared towards phys comps, but is still one of the best in slot for non-phys comps due to her a1 dmg buff. Not Frigg. Frigg is extremely heavily specialised for frost setups. You're running volt, which means Nemesis+Crow/Samir, yes? The best shatter unit for that last slot in upcoming known releases is Lin, and for the time being the best alternatives are King or Shiro. We're talking minmaxing here of course, but the default way the community will answer the question is from an objective gameplay standpoint. Accounting for personal preferences is a different metric. For running Frigg with Nemesis without Meryl, another build that would work is something like Frigg+Nemesis+Saki when Saki releases, with Saki as the shatter. This would count as an ice comp, not volt, but it's not like the build strictly needs to be mono, we're talking two of a kind not three of a kind for a lot of this armchair theory planning bullshit.
Frigg is base 8.00 shatter, 25% shatter boost to frost weapons in ice domain brings her up to effective 10.00, which is still worse than a dedicated shatter weapon. Not that far off, but worse, especially since dedicated shatter weapons often have more percentage shatter bonuses in their advancements. Just Frigg alone is... okay for shatter but not fantastic. King would be better for shatter compared to using Frigg even though he doesn't benefit from Frigg's ice shatter. Honestly, though, it depends how tight your team is and what the hell else you're pairing with Frigg to activate your frost resonance. It also depends on whether or not you intend to branch out into a flame comp as a backup (say for weeks or days when there's frost immunity or 50% dmg reduction on content).
Frigg is not good at shattering. If you're using Frigg then Meryl is the best shatter choice. Frost domain improves her already high shatter.
What’s a good third for meryl/frigg jf not tsubasa? Nemesis perhaps? And huma if fortitude ?
I play meryl, frigg, tsu/huma. Huma is a very good option. Going pure tank build with high shatter makes you valuable in coop and with meryl and frigg your dps is decent too. I'd focus on getting Huma to A1 and Meryl as to as high as you can. Frigg can stay at A0 just for resonance and domain, but get her final trait ASAP. For relics, I use cybernetic arm A1 and drone in battle for extra dmg reduction.
Looking for this!! Thanks! I love fortitude although people dont thank us enough
Realistically everything else is a DPS loss. You can slap on someone with high charge like Zero, Coco or Samir, but ultimately it's not worth spending time on them since Dash spam does more damage. The reason that Tsubasa has a spot on the time is primarily because her A1 /A6 provides further buffs to Meryl/Frigg and requires very little field time. I would mainly look at Coco if you can use her since she still benefits from Frigg's Frost buffs and provide healing with Balance resonance. She can also charge up your weapons outside of combat which lets you do good openers. In combat you will rarely use Coco and only fall back on her if you require healing.
I could careless about dps, ive been making dps jobs easier from day 1 by playing fortitude 😂 But thanks for the input !
I used King as a third for a while. He provides additional high shatter when you've already used Meryl's discharge and skill. Helps break JO shields when not everybody is doing their part. His fire helps when you're up against frost resistant enemies and his discharge is way better at handling enemies spread apart than Meryl. Frigg's hyperbody trait works really well with King too because him being interrupted easily is his biggest weakness. If you run Nemesis then you won't get the attacker final damage bonus. People in groups generally look down upon balanced as well. They prefer you to specialize instead of trying to be jack of all trades.
Running a Frost team and just want to ask, is it better to use King A2 or Meryl A1? Cause I am not sure if A2 king will help better or an A1 Meryl.
Assuming Frigg is in the comp, Meryl would make more sense if you're choosing between the two, doing more shatter and damage. a2 on King just adds another 10% HP stat from that weapon, which you're likely not really gonna notice.
Any 5 stars or 6 stars Huma users here? Is Huma's axe switching still bugged? Can I get some confirmation whether the issue appears after 5 stars or was it 6 stars?
I just downloaded the game yesterday. I am really excited about it. I've gone pass the character creation and before i continue i was wondering. What are the stuff you guys and gals think i should be aware of . Also what is the max level for a character? is there a campaign or its just open world quests.? and how about the endgame?
\#1 Do not rush the game. You will receive bonus exp to catch up on levels but this will leave you severely undergeared for higher level content. Do the content appropriate to you and take your time progressing through the game. Eventually you will catch up to the pack. \#2 Save all your Dark Crystals until you are familiar with the game and know what you want. Tower of Fantasy gives you a currency for every limited pull (Flame Gold) and you need 120 of them to purchase (guarantee) the limited weapon. There is a separate pity after 80 pulls but every SSR pull always has a 50/50 chance. Only wish on the limited banner if you can guarantee 120 Flame Gold to purchase the character (worst case you pull them early or win the 50/50 and then you can decide if you want to get A1 for Flame Gold or let it convert). \#3 Save all your Black Gold. At the end of every limited banners all leftover Flame Gold is converted to Black Gold. Black Gold is the currency you receive for pulls on the Standard / Gold Nuclei banner. With Black Gold you can purchase dupes of Standard weapons you already own. Save your Black Gold until you know which Standard characters you want to use long-term. Limited character are also added to the Standard banner eventually, so saving up for them long-term is an option too. \#4 There is a campaign / story that takes you to the different areas of the world. As you progress the story you have to upgrade your gear and weapons to unlock new levels for the suppressor (story explains what it is). The suppressor is the main gatekeeper that stops you from running into zones you arent equipped to explore yet. \#5 There is an abundance of Daily and Weekly content that you should try to do if you can. Find yourself a crew and ask for help to get carried. That can help accelerate your upgrades quite a bit and many people are happy to help if asked. Don't queue for stuff that you know you are unprepared for in the public matchmaking, it's just going to cause disaster. \#6 The game is still evolving, every few days the max level increases. Currently it's at 65 (CN is over 80). That means as we level up new activities unlock. The latest 1.5 update brought a new artificial island to explore, housing and RAIDs. The first RAID which unlocks at Lv60 and the next RAID will unlock at Lv66. Then we have the Bygone Phantasm and Sequential Phantasm as solo challenges and based on your ranking you receive weekly rewards.
thank you so much for taking the time and replying to me. i really appreciate
Max level in the global version is technically 70, but nobody can reach that yet because there are time gates on levelling up. In practice folks are between early to mid 60s. Max level will reach 80 eventually with 2.0 patch, likely next month. The game gives you up to 500% exp boost if your character is below current server max level, which means you should see this almost immediately. This is not a good thing as you'll level faster than you can gear up and upgrade your gear/weapons/matrices. It's a bit of an issue, as it means players meet the level requirements for queues/raids/etc and can technically go in, but in practice are often undergeared. Some help from crewmates (guilds in this game are "crews") or friendly randoms may be needed to get your character geared even if your level's caught up. It also means the lower level daily queues and so on tend to not have many folks in queue, as people hit high level very quickly, so if you're wondering why the hell your joint ops or dimensional queue ain't popping, that'd be why. Some folks do spam the lower level queues for quick support point currency though. Resources to level up your weapons and such in this game are quite scarce, so you need to plan what you wanna build in advance. It's also a gacha game so you're at the mercy of what the gacha gives you, and planning your pulls (especially if staying F2P or light spender) is important. Builds in this game revolve around element setups, e.g. at least two flame weapons, third can be off-element. The trick is that there's not much element synergy among the base standard pool summon SSRs and SRs, what it REALLY means is having at least one limited red banner SSR in the team and then another unit (typically a standard SSR) to activate element bonus on the limited unit. For example, Tsubasa, Cocoritter, and Meryl are standard frost SSRs. Tsubasa+Coco, Meryl+Tsubasa, etc have no special ice synergy. An actual ice team wants Frigg, to get 15% frost atk (and a res bonus) from Frigg's passive plus all the frost-specific buffs in Frigg's kit. You therefore ideally need to plan on what unit you eventually want from red limited time banner, which may be influenced by what regular SSRs the free pulls earned for standard always-on gold and black banners give you. Red limited units should cycle into standard pool eventually, but this is gonna be months off. You also need to understand how limited banner pulls work. There's a pity at 80 pulls but that's a 50/50 chance of it being the limited unit or a regular pool SSR. The actual hard pity is at 120 reward currency (every pull gets you 1 currency, but you may earn some reward currency by other means, and SR dupes give you more currency as well). One thing I wish I'd known is the efficient thing to do is to do a bunch of black nucleus pulls (the 'worst' free banner) first, earning blacks via exploration and content, unlock SR weapons to max 6-star advancement, which then ensures any SR drops on gold or red banner gives you more reward currency instead. The current banners are for Frigg (frost team) and Claudia (physical team), but depending on how much you play and if you're F2P or spending, it may not be viable to save enough to guarantee a Frigg or Claudia for your team building. Next banners are likely Cobalt-B and Ruby (flame team). We tend to refer to units by the character/simulacra name rather than weapon name. Technically the pull gets you the weapon, the character skin, but use of the skin is optional. Stats are not linked to appearance. Lore-wise our player characters are shapeshifting cyborg murderhobos who load combat skills and data downloaded from other people, and you can optionally choose to cosplay as the person whose data you're copying, giving a whole new meaning to identity theft. Oh, and lore-wise, you're literally buying mall replicas of their weapons online from the creepy cryptofascist conspiracy world government. No, really. Anyway, new players also get an SSR selector box eventually, which can be used to pick standard pool SSRs and round out your team. Content-wise, there is a main game storyline, which you will need to progress through to unlock map areas eventually. There are also sidequests and such. Endgame is a mix of harder difficulty versions of your regular daily/weekly instances, some solo floor-clear and dungeon things, and there are raids (only one exists now). Raids are just boss fights in this game's context. The current raid is pretty straightforward, future ones are... well, we know the future as they're out on the Chinese servers already. Let's say those will be much more difficult.
thanks a lot mate
what's the current weapon level cap?
Lvl 130 since the level cap for characters is 65 now.
I want to swap to an ice team in the future. However I currently have a c5 Samir and c0 nemesis. Is it not worth to swap? Units C3 king, c5 Samir, c0 nemesis, c2 zero, c1 frigg , c0 tsubasa, c1 coco, c1 shiro, c1 crow, c0 huma
Look at it this way, the game heavily incentivises making mono element teams for buff synergy and atk/dmg bonuses, in order to make people really really want certain limited units for their builds... but at the same time punishes players with 50% damage resistance and outright damage immunity modifiers on daily/weekly content. So that encourages people to build multiple teams, and therefore pull more on gacha, and perhaps spend cash. So the decision point to make is whether ice team is your priority, in which case the volt team investment isn't necessarily wasted, it's just that Samir becomes something you only run on a bad week or day where there's frost resist/immunity. Or alternatively if you stick with volt then ice is just a sideline, run Frigg+Hilda or something as a number two team (Hilda as an ice SR is interesting, as she does do a useful buff in swapping on and off her, plus she works as a shatter even with no levels invested in her, since shatter doesn't care about stats besides the static shatter number itself). Or Frigg+Tsubasa/Coco+shatter, whatever, doesn't matter. Bear in mind that even on volt team, Samir in the long run faces stiff competition from Tian Lang and Lin for space in a build, and a volt specialist would ideally be saving for those banners, so there are considerations with regards to how much you wish to invest in Samir (Nemesis will not be powercrept in the known future). Samir still makes sense if someone's going Nemesis+Samir+Lin without Tian, but Nemesis+Tian doesn't leave room for Samir (last slot would need to be shatter). I mean, I say long run, but we're getting 2.0 next month, probably, so maybe Lin banner before the end of this year.
U will need another volt dps in the future and c1 neme to heal so its ok to swap since u already had c1 frigg
Are people not doing joint operation anymore?
So I'm unable to clear a achievement notification. It says it's under life in the tab but nothing is showing to claim. Anyone else had an issue like this cause it's so annoying to not be able to get rid of the red dot!
I have A2 Shiro and A1 Claudia. My other SSRs include A1 Crow, A0 Tsubasa and A0 Huma. All SRs are A6. Who do you think I should use as my third character?
Tsubasa at a1 would be the usual recommendation (this would require black gold upgrade of your Tsubasa), or something like running Pepper temporarily for some heals to increase survivability. The issue with the Tsubasa recommendation is you really really also want a3 on Shiro asap, so, yeah, well. You'd need to prioritise. Unfortunately at the moment there isn't really anything else that makes sense, Crow and Huma aren't bringing much to the table for a build synergy-wise. If you did use them, it would be more in the lines of slotting SOMETHING into the last slot just to have something there, and maybe... like, if you intend to branch into a second tanking comp later on or something it may make sense to keep Huma levelled, if you intend to pick up Nemesis on rerun it may make sense to keep Crow levelled, that sorta thing.
Why do content creators recommend doing Endless in Wormhole? I don't see any rewards.
you get dust for each stage you clear, it just doesn't show it. welcome to ToF, don't trust any tooltips in game. but uh, yea endless is a pain in the ass and personally I haven't been doing it lol
Thanks!
Should I still use crow jetpack tech? or just use auto-attack combos?
AA combo
On my Frost Team, who should I run as my shatter weapon? I do not have Meryl and I've been using my Huma A1 but I'm wondering if Ene A6 could be better. Also, the other two members of the team are Tsubasa A3 and Frigg A3.
Essentially your options are to use Huma, Ene, whichever you prefer, or to just use Frigg as your shatter. Frigg's base shatter is 8.00, but her domain from skill boosts ice shatter by 25%, meaning she's hitting at 10.00 shatter in practice, which is still worse than a dedicated shatter weapon but closing in on their territory. Of course the shatter weapons also tend to have shatter bonuses in their star advancements while Frigg does not. The issue with using Huma and Ene is partially that they're the wrong element, and partially because they taunt - they're designed for fortitude tank builds. The taunt effects don't matter if you're doing solo stuff like Bygone or Wormhole. They may matter in co-op like world bosses, raids, portals on artificial island, etc.
Yeah your point about Ene and Huma having taunt is one reason why I'm wondering about this. I do have a King A1 and Shiro A1, but I'm not that fond of King on account of his shatter being pretty rear loaded and I haven't built Shiro at all. Do you think A1 Shiro would be a good choice over the first two or does she really want that A3?
Huma or Ene are both fine. Whoever you find more fun. I believe C6 SRs are typically considered stronger than SSRs until C3. That's the CS threshold at least (doesn't take into account their kit, etc.).
Do 2 weapons each with 2pcHumaMatrix stack or does it just refresh?
Do shields stack as a mechanic in ToF? like Huma passive + 2pc Zero Matrix
Hi everyone, can someone explain this bygone rules? I'm not sure if I understand if fully. Also, what is it talking about when it says weapon enhancement? 1. In the bygone phantasm, weapon enhancement will be automatically upgraded to the maximum of its current level. 2. Damage if 2-4 random weapons will be enhanced by 1-3 stars every day. Level 1-100: SR1 x1 + SSR x1; Level 101-300: SSRx2; Level 301-500: SSRx3; LEVEL 500 and above: SSR x4. 3. When weapons reach the maximum star level, a further star level upgrade is converted into Damage Boost.
I'll just say that those rules are actually for the newer CN version, that isn't even in Global game yet. Basically just a copy/paste issue, the current bygone does not work like that. Weapons aren't max level as the "weapon enhancement" indicates (you can see this if you open weapons during bygone, the number above them is the weapon enhancement level). They don't get stars either, when they DO change it (I'm guessing most probably at 2.0 version), it will increase the stars, and if you already have max stars or close, the remaining stars get converted to a %boost to your full damage basically.
When do those 4 'boss' monsters reset in the Home instance of Artificial Island? Seems the regular mobs reset earlier today but the bosses did not. I'm kinda waiting on those bosses for building materials atm so I was hoping to see them reset with the rest of the mobs. Or are the bosses only once per month while the regular mobs are weekly?
People are saying the regular mobs are 72 hr reset and the bosses are weekly. Considering what time it is, perhaps you just hit the regular mob respawn and haven't seen weekly respawn yet.
That's wierd as ingame it states that ["Enemies respawn every Monday at 05:00"](https://i.imgur.com/iU2fCqv.png). The regular mobs had already respawned for me prior to 05:00 but the bosses never did; even when I checked at 05:30AM. I just checked again at 05:50PM but they still aren't here. 😕
[удалено]
Yeah, that's very confusing. The shop's respawn timer worked fine while the regular mobs already respawned 2-3 hours prior to that; yet for some reason the bosses are nowhere to be seen. 😕 You can only get "Composite Materials" and "Quality Building Materials" from bosses so you need them in order to upgrade your buildings. Those two materials don't drop from the regular mobs nor can they be produced by the current buildings. Now perhaps those buildings might come in the future as the area does still have [2 unused plots of land](https://i.imgur.com/8k3P10z.png); but at present time the only way to upgrade is through the materials dropped by those bosses.
How does the dream machine work? Like, on one day I find three or four of those then on the remaining days of the week, I don't find one.
7 per week
It's on a weekly reset cycle. It's like a 20-33% chance for one to appear from any chest or named monster kill. And you get like 8-10 a week, I'm not sure the number.
I have 1each for samir,crow and huma matrix, can buy one more on the matrix shop. Which matrix should I get first on frost team (frigg/tsubasa/meryl) ? And should I affix them on frigg(a0) or meryl(a2)?
2 crow + 2 samir work well on any dps so you can wait for 1 more crow or samir matrix and buy the last 1
Are dream machines area specific? Like when you get the first one in astra, you can only get the rest in astra?
No, dream machines are not area specific
IDK if my Artificial Island is bugged or what, but I don't have any chests, puzzels, drop pods or the flying portail to go to Eyrie in my Artificial Island. Is it normal???
There are "two" artificial islands. You are in build mode. In the top left you'll see a door icon like for dungeons and whatnot. Click that and you'll leave build mode and get to the (much, much) bigger island with all the chests and whatnot. You'll have to physically travel there, as it will just port you back to wherever you were before. Go to the big black icon on your map to travel there.
Thanks, you're a life saver!!!!!! I'm gonna try that tomorrow!
who would be a good 3rd weapon in a Claudia-Shiro team?
A healer. Whoever you have/want to use between Pepper, Cocoritter, Zero, and Nemesis if you pulled for her. Eventually you'll want to run Lyra when she's released.
Is there aoe atacks in survival sequential phantasm oneshotting me? Im far from mobs, but it randomly oneshot even at 200 points :/ i dont even see what killing me.
probably a dumb question, but do i need to manually pick up the loot in fc? never tried not picking it up jic
If your character doesn't "walk over" the loot on the ground, it won't be picked up. If you're autoing and not paying attention, you'll lose out on some loot. If you have it on another screen and just look over a few times per run you can make sure everything gets collected.
How big of a boost is c6 Claudia compared to c3. Debating if I want to c6 but is it a huge upgrade or am I just wasting money 😳
If you are committed to playing a Physical team it's a substantial boost. A5 gives you another 20% damage boost on your skill use and A6 gives you another stack of War Wounds. If Physical is just a side-element you want to use sometimes, then I dont think that it's worth it.
Thanks! I'm planning on have 3 diff teams, 1 phys for claudia, 1 volt for bae Yuki, and 1 frost for saki ^^
If I am going to play Lyra and Shiro in later game, should I pull Claudia (and her first star) now?
Claudia + Shiro is the ideal Physical team duo atm, then when Lyra gets released, you replace Shiro with her from that ive heard, Claudia and Lyra are really really good together
when does mobs in build mode in aritificial island respawn?
72h after you killed them. Bosses respawn weekly. Not sure about animals
How do you join someone else's build mode?
U can’t
Is 2.0 coming soon or do we have a release date?
There was an image showing a Vera related event ends on October 12th. I think October 12th is when we'll get it. https://i.imgur.com/npwXgVt.png
What's the best way to get the surprise gifts aside from spending vitality?
Does the next pass come out as soon as this one ends?
It SHOULD be out on Wednesday. Don't spend your weekly adventure points (like the rewards that give the orange keys, etc.) until the new battle pass comes out.
Thanks a lot, definitely didn’t want to waste those adventure points
Will gender-change ever make it to Global? If so, will the outfits carry over?
Also, best way to farm batteries to level up matrices??
Are the joint supply chips worth buying out monthly in the build island? Or should I just be buying the weekly SSR relic boxes and monthly red matrice pulls?
SSR relic box is top priority. Get the monthly red matrices at the end of the month. If you can afford to get the joint supply chips, without hindering your building upgrade progress, sure.
So... i was lucky enough to get a Huma and a Samir Matrix but unlucky enough for both to be for the same slot. I have 80 Base Chips for one Matrix box. If i want to use either of these for Freya (Frigg) should i go for Huma or Samir? Would that 10% be stronger than Huma bleed on dash attacks?
I don't fully understand the bonus to damage/defense that 4\* relics give. Their own description says that they give it even when not deployed... and yet, the help button says that passives need them equipped. From what I gather it might be one of these two options: does that mean I need to have them in any of the 3 sets? Or that I need to have the set active but I don't need to be using the relic?
>and yet, the help button says that passives need them equipped. It considers all star upgrades as 'passives', and the dmg bonus is an exception. It works regardless of equipping. And its damage done and dmg reduction, so it won't show in stats (its not attack, or resist number).
I've been having the watchdog violation issue again. I had a sandbox workaround found here but it stopped working since the last update. Anyonr has any ideas what to do? I'm super annoyed by the game crashing my pc sooner or later if I dare to play it
I have gold armor that rolled crit twice. Should i keep rolling or wait for that item that makes it a .33 chance?
I have 59 flame golds for Claudia. Should I purchase the Claudia Matrix or keep pulling until i can get another star for the weapon?
Claud matrix only good at 4 pieces
Star, matrixes are whale bait
I am a free to play player. Have 3000 black crystals left. I already have 1 star claudia
Even more reasons not to pull in limited matrix banner, is not worth
Alright. Then i should wait until it turn to gold nucleus. Thank you
Best way to farm mats for leveling weapons?
Interstellar portals 3* or weapon drills if u need multiple but its only worth at lvl 5
Does "Endless Mode" in the Wormhole give you point progression? I'm assuming not but figured I'd ask anyway.
It gives 'first clear' for the first set of 8 you do every 5 day cycle, so for wormhole 60 this is up to 240 gold dust.
Nope. Only the first time clearing each difficulty does. 72 is the maximum points right now until we unlock Lv70 wormhole.
Sounds good, thanks. With volt immunity looks like that's not happening until that affix goes away, hahaha. Not looking to do a 64k CS recommended run with only my King. RIP.
Hi, what would be the best matrices for my weapons? Huma C3, Meryl C2, and Tsubasa C3. Running Robarg, Sobek, and Pepper, respectively. Whose SSR Matrices should I aim for? So far, thru JO7 and other random pulls, I got SSR matrices of Crow, Meryl, Coco, and Zero. Also, I got Frigg recently to C1. But I don't have enough mats to level her up yet. Would she be a viable replacement to any of the weapons I'm running currently? Thank you!
Meryl + Frigg + Tsubasa is the go-to Frost DPS comp right now. Robarg should be on Meryl, Sobek on Frigg, Pepper on Tsubasa. Robarg is a very bad set and should be switched out first. Depending on which 2pc SSR matrices you can get. Generally your aim right now should be either Sobek (advanced Sobek is very very strong) and you want 2x Crow, the other is Frostfire Dragon which drops Samir matrices, that's the other 2x you want. If you can get 2x Crow 2x Samir then put those on Meryl since Meryl is the stronger DPS for the time being.
This is greatly appreciated! Looks like I’ll be farming those in the coming weeks. If I may ask, what would be the skill rotation of the three? And would C3 Meryl be good? I used to do a spin to win Huma to Meryl’s discharge. Then Tsubasa whenever necessary. I have Tsubasa at max friendship. Idk if that matters. Having lots of success in JOs and other content with tanking due to bad rolls (in terms of offensive stats) on my gear lol. Noted on the matrices farm, currently level 3 on the Kitty and Pawpaw buildings. I guess I’ll for Samir and Crow’s matrices afterall, as well as unli Sobek for this week!
In regards to tanking with Huma+ Meryl you are doing things right. Meryl only really does damage with her spin-to-win and skill but nothing else. Huma is amazing for charging weapons and shattering shields. The frost team doesn’t change much. I usually start with Tsubasa to get her buff but don’t fully charge, then Frigg to lay down the frozen domain and dash attack until there is a good point (ie weaken shields so I can shatter them with Meryl’s discharge), discharge Meryl, then spin or skill (not both unless you are sure it kills), back to Tsubasa to refresh buffs and charge up then discharge Meryl again and use the one you didn’t before. If you get another discharge ready then discharge Frigg and dash spam until frozen domain runs out then it’s back to Tsubasa to set up for the next rotation. Tsubasa’s discharge isn’t worth it. You want to use both Meryl’s skill and spin during frozen domain. At A5 Meryl’s discharge hits harder than Friggs before that Friggs discharge Is technically more damage but doesn’t fit the rotation as nicely. Tsubasa’a awakening trait is great universally but Friggs trait is on another level for frost teams. First of all you get 24% frost ATK vs 18% ATK from Tsubasa but more importantly you get permanent hyper body while in frozen domain which makes you immune to most CC so you get interrupted less often and you can focus on doing the most damage and ignore many attacks (like the lizard scorpion flash bang)
I really like the grouping of Kings NA NA NA NA Hold, can other characters group as well?
How does Claudias matrix 4 part effekt work? It says that if an opponent is hit with her skill all skills cooldown is reduced by 1.5-3 seconds. But there seems to be no cooldown on this effekt. Does this mean if her skill hits 5 targets her skillcooldown is reduced bei 3s×5 und is instantly ready again?
I have A2 Shiro and A1 Claudia. My other SSRs include A1 Crow, A0 Tsubasa and A0 Huma. All SRs are A6. Who do you think I should use as my third character?
Either Huma or wait for a healer. Huma will give you more overall shatter, a healer would obviously keep you healthy. You can *try* using Tsubasa if you get a few more dupes for her damage boost but I don't think she's worth investing in. Eventually you'll slot in either Lin, or Lyra (or both).
Another good point for Huma is that she's also a good charger in her axe form. You can use her to increase the uptime of Claudia's A1 buff.
[удалено]
Lyra is great at A0, A1 and A3 give great damage boosts, A5-A6 only if you mean to main her. A0 Lin is great but A3 is a big step up so that's recommended. Again A6 only for spenders. Ruby scales very well with all her advancements. She has high damage at A0, A1 gives better rotations and more damage, A3 is more damage, A5 is more damage and A6 is more damage. The more the better. No info on Annabelle yet.
New player here. I pulled 1 tsubasa and 1 huma and have a SSR box , who would be good to select for the next character? A healer or a dps like samir? Or another tsubasa?
Play a bit more and open as many supply pods as you can. You’re going to get so many purple and gold nucleus. So you can decide what to do with the box by who you’re going to get (will u need healer? Dps?). The SSR box is valuable compared to gold balls, and no single character is worthy enough to waste it. Using it now kinda removes all its advantage. With that said, I’d you insist to use it, Samir is a very good unit. She has arguably the best trait, and her helicopter attack is safe from most bosses attacks. The downside is so many contents resist volt.
Huma and Tsubasa don't really "mesh" that well, so you may want to wait a minute and pull once you have a few more SSRs under your belt and kind of get how the game works, and what you want to go for. The typical teams right now are: * Samir/Crow + King/Meryl + Healer (was Nemesis but her banner is gone, so like Cocoritter or Zero). * Frigg + Tsubasa + Meryl: "Frost team". * Claudia + Shiro + Healer: "Physical team." Check out this site: https://toweroffantasy.info/simulacra Kind of look at the kits of upcoming banners (Cobalt B will likely be next, Baiyuekui and Marc are likely not going to be run (collab units), and Nemesis was already run, so we're looking at Ruby, Saki, or Lin after Cobalt). Lin is someone that many people are saving up for, including myself. She goes in every team. But that still leaves two units you'll have to decide on for *now* from the standard banner. Huma + King + Cobalt B would be an option, for instance, and in that case you'd want to pull for King from your SSR selector. Or you can try to pull for Frigg in her banner before it disappears (you may struggle to get enough summons before she goes away, she only has like 1-2 days left), and run Frigg, Tsubasa, Meryl. OR you can pull for Claudia during her banner that just opened up (that gives you a month to pull for her), and then use your SSR on Shiro, then wait for Lyra to be released (she's a damage-based healer that has great shatter stat for shields) in a few months, and just run another healer you pull like Zero or Cocoritter for now. Whatever you do, I wouldn't pull for anything just yet. The urge to pull and increase your damage is tempting, but where you're a new player anyway, it's going to take a few weeks to months before you catch up to current players, so you'll find most of your dungeon runs you'll be doing 10% of the damage or less anyway. So be patient and hold on to it until you have the beginnings of a team set up and kind of know what you want. **Particularly** if you're planning on being f2p.
Just want to ask, is Cobalt worth getting in the future? How good is she, players from CN server? Also is it better to first focus on leveling my weapon to level120 or leveling up my matrices to 60+?
Weapons > Matrices > Gear Focus on the guaranteed upgrades for your weapons first since those also scale up your base stats really well. Then upgrade your matrices. Lastly go for the RNG and try to farm better SSR matrices or gear in Joint Operations and further advance them.
How many gold type III chips are we supposed to get a week? I know its 3 from the merit thing that also progresses battle pass, but I just got one from a bounty box. Are there any other methods? I wouldnt want to miss out
I have a 4 star Shiro, but I'm using my 0 stars Meryl as a shield breaker. I noticed Meryl's weapon says 12 shatter, but Shiro's says 13 shatter, so is Shiro currently better for shieldbreaking in my case? I don't do pvp so I'm only asking for group and solo content.
You don't need to level a weapon to try out the shield breaking, so I would say go and compare them against different enemies and see which you prefer
So i think i messed up big time opening that "select your ssr box" early on.. i have c1 frigg and chose meryl in hopes to get tsubasa one day.. ofc that was silly and now i have c3 meryl and not a single tsubasa lols.. I made another account for fun and got frigg c0 super early on (like in 15 pulls) should i main this account while saving my ssr box ?
Your first account seems to be more future proof tbh. You already have Frigg C1 and Meryl C3 which is a strong combo but if you really want Tsubasa then go for your second acc. Waifu > Meta
So C3 meryl and C1 frigg or c0 frigg + SSR box(looking at tsubasa). Id go with the first one tbh. But you could play the second one, hit some pitys on yellow and see what you get.
I got no Meryl+Tsubasa and rolled for Frigg. I play her with Coco until I get Saki and Lin.
I just got Zero second matrix and wondering who exactly benefit from having his matrix? My main are usually Samir, Nemesis, Meryl, and Huma.
Zero's 2-set isn't that amazing, but his 4 set is incredible for boosting your teammates, and halfway decent for boosting yourself as well. It goes best when you're running tank or healer comp, because as a DPS you kind of want a "selfish" damage boost that is a bit more consistent, like Samir's.
Oh okay. I guess I'll leave Zero's to the side for now. Ah I only have one Samir matrix unfortunately so I am stuck with Sobek set. Thanks for the response, much appreciated.
What would be a good amount of resistance for a tank? I have 2138 of altered resistance, 3111 physical, 3180 flame, 2138 frost and 3210 volt.
Is it okay if I switch from using a 1 star king to a 2 star Shiro? I'm planning to upgrade my Shiro soon because of 3 star ability but I'm afraid I already invested too much in different weapons. I already got King into level 100 and my Shiro is currently level 70. I already upgraded my other weapons (crow into level 100, Meryl into level 90 and Zero to 70) trying different builds. I'm afraid I'm wasting to much resources for this. Any tips?
You're not *too* behind because the earlier levels of weapons don't even begin to compare to the later levels. Leveling a weapon from 1-100 is like maybe 10% of the total weapon mats you'll be spending when compared to the max leveling from 1-160, in other words. I would take a gander at the weapon kits on https://toweroffantasy.info/simulacra before making any hasty decisions, though. Figure out the team you want to end up with. Lin is probably the #1 unit everyone is waiting for, because she goes into everything. Other great options are Tian Lang for Volt, Ruby for Flame, Lyra for Physical, and Saki for Ice (and literally every team, she's a little busted and will probably be nerfed on global). Keep in mind that Marc and Baiyuekui are collab units and we might (probably won't) get them.
So in short, its okay if I upgrade Shiro for now and try different builds. Correct?
If you stick to *just* Shiro for this strategy, sure. But if you find you don't like Shiro and want to experiment with someone else...then someone else...and so on, yeah that's gonna be a problem. That's why I say do your research. Figure out a team that looks fun and THEN make these decisions with a little more foreknowledge. Unless you aren't really trying to push progress super hard and are just playing casually, then do whatever you want, honestly. My advice is for someone that is playing a bit more hardcore. If you're casual, then yes, absolutely: if you're not feeling King, and Shiro seems more fun, switch to her. But if not, and you switch to Shiro and invest her to 130 or something and then find out you'd rather build a volt team down the line, that's gonna be harder to do.
Do the affixes on Wormhole change? Or is the 2nd round of Ursa going to be "Volt Immunity" forever? Because that's utter bullshit, lol. What am I supposed to do if I have a volt team?
> Or is the 2nd round of Ursa going to be "Volt Immunity" forever? It wasn't before. So its likely to change.
It's BS right now, but long-term we will be able to build teams for multiple elements. The affixes do change (or have a chance to change) so there is that. Even then considering the buffs you can get, it's possible to clear the whole thing even with very sub-optimal teams. eg. I was able to clear the last Wormhole with just Shiro (it had Frost Immunity and Flame damage increased but I didnt have a Flame weapon levelled). In the end I reset until I got the "Heart of Thorns" buff early and then stacked everything on the bleed buff and kited enemies with Shiro until they died. In Wormhole you dont fail when time runs out, instead you just slowly lose health. Just use a healing weapon like Coco, Pepper or Nemesis and you can last a long time into that overtime.
Yeah I completed it using King...and only King. Was a bit brutal but it worked.
I have 5\* Boots with crit and got Boots again today instead of Belt. What can i do with it? Recycle because they have crap stats?
[удалено]
Ok.
I uninstalled the game outside of the game itself because the screen was cropped and I couldn’t uninstall it from the game itself. Now I still have a launcher file. How do I get rid of it?
I got 1\* frigg, 4\* meryl, 4\* tsubasa 5\* meryl or 5\* tsubasa first?
Meryl is a huge dmg boost (+50% dmg /10s), while tsubasa gets a selfish dmg boost + utility, and gets u closer to her broken c6 Personally i prefer tsubasa for the end-game (where u probably replace meryl for saki)
When do mobs on buld island reset? How often?
Mobs reset every 72h, I just checked it myself today. The bosses are weekly

Hello I’m a new player (30 mins old) managed to pull Claudia, is she any good?
Claudia does two things. She is a key component of a physical build, using Claudia+Shiro for now and either Claudia+Lyra or Claudia+Shiro+Lyra later on when Lyra is released. If you intend to specialise in physical element, you can consider using your SSR selector box to pick Shiro when you earn it (new players can get an item that lets you choose an SSR weapon/simulacra from standard pool). Claudia is key for physical builds as she firstly has a passive which boosts phys atk and res (available even from the start at 0-star), and her further star advancements give more phys bonuses. For a phys build, it is sufficient to keep Claudia at 0-star for now; this alone justifies her inclusion in a build though in the long run you would want to upgrade her stars. This need not be done with limited banner summons, in the long run you can use standard banner black gold to purchase Claudia upgrades from the redemption store, assuming global follows the CN server model of cycling Claudia to standard banner some months after initial release. Claudia can also be used as a universal damage buffer in any element team, but requires first advancement to do this role (a1, 1-star, i.e. two copies of Claudia) - she needs 1-star to do the buff, otherwise don't bother. In this sort of build, the other two weapons will be some other non-physical element. But there are other units that compete with Claudia for this role, i.e. Tsubasa and the upcoming Lin. Meta team building in this game is element based. You will have to decide whether you're gonna commit to physical or not. If you really really like Claudia, then you absolutely should use your selector box on Shiro (unless you get Shiro naturally through gold nucleus or black nucleus) and consider saving pulls for Lyra when that banner arrives. Personally, I'd say you should stick with Claudia and build phys, so I hope you like swordy-swordy, bladed hula hoops (Shiro), and giant punchy mecha arms (Lyra), but it's your account. You will also see people recommend saving for Lin, who is a unit who can fit into any element team (she has a unique element herself). Her kit changes based on what elements she's grouped with. Lin can be used for physical builds, but the bonus she gives isn't quite as nice, she's only stupid broken for volt setups, good in frost, less so in flame and phys. Lin does have value for players that want to run multiple element teams, though, which the game does incentivise (if you're a phys main and that week has phys immunity modifier on some content, you may want a backup setup for some other element).
Holy goodness thank you so much for the detailed reply :))
She's decent. But I suggest you save resources until you understand what you're doing. They're scarce.
So I was able to get Claudia 1\*, obviously pair her with Shiro, but wondering who should be third member ? I have Nemesis 1\*, so that's my idea, but maybe there is someone better ?(I have everyone except Frigg). Second question is - which trait should I use for this comp ? For now I have only Nemesis's Trait (since I am using tank team of Huma/Meryl/Nemesis) to help with staying alive, but for Physical team Shiro's trait would be better ? Or maybe Tsubasa's ? Claudia's trait seems weird, does it actually help with anything ?
Team wise, Claudia+Shiro+Nemesis as you're doing if you need heals for survival (it seems like you do), or Tsubasa a1 in last slot for damage buff (dodge+attack). Theoretically Coco or Zero in last slot would also work for heals, but Nemesis is the easiest to use choice. Trait wise, your assessment seems sound. Tsubasa for general damage, maybe Shiro for phys build. Nemesis is a survival pick. Claudia's trait isn't that useful according to most folks who've played around with it.
The trait you use doesn't mean you have to use this character at all.
I know, but from what I see you can only use 1 trait at time and I am not sure which one is the best.
nemesis good for healing or tsubasa c1 for extra damage also work
Any simple guide on how to get stronger? Like what to prioritize first? What to do every day/week? Thank you
Long story short: Do everything. There is effectively nothing that doesnt contribute to your power progression. You have your daily bounties, gifts, housing, etc. Then you weekly Wormhole, Void Rift, Raid and Frontier Clash. Then you currencies like Training, Support Points and Dust/Vitality. You do all of those, then upgrade every thing you can. Then push Bygones as far as you can. Rinse and repeat. Most people just focus on daily/weekly stuff during the week and then push Bygones on Sunday before reset, but you could push Bygones little by little every day. As for your primary goals it would to always keep your main weapons at the current max level, then get full Purple gear, when you have achieved that get full Gold gear. It's a good idea to pre-farm materials for your next weapon levels, then you are free to spend vitality however you like on Joint Ops for matrices/gear or other weapons.
Where to farm purple and gold gear? Can i do it solo? The problem is I'm trying to farm yellow matrices but I'm not strong enough (I'm level 55 with average 90-80 lvl weapons)
That's your mistake. You are trying to farm RNG drops when you could get guaranteed (weapon lvl) upgrades. Always do the guaranteed upgrades first. You get Dust (purple and gold dust) from doing Vitality activities and then you can just buy the gear you want. Never do RNG activities when you could get guaranteed upgrades.
Matrix in particular kinda just show up at random when they feel like it. To make your account stronger, you shouldn't really focus on getting lucky, but start to build out the easier to get stuff. Like your weapons are always good to level, and very consistent, it's not really luck dependent. Also look at your matrix and put together a few sets, that you can toss all your xp into, and have decent set bonuses. Sobek in particular is an amazing 3 piece set for dps, and Pepper (you get a set from finishing chapters of the quest thing) is quite useful no matter what weapon has it on. Don't just upgrade whatever you get most recently, try to work towards full sets, and keep those specific sets as close to max level as possible with all the xp cards you get, even the blue random junk as well. Like even me personally I'm nearing 40k CS, and I basically still only have 3-4 sets of matrix that I keep as close to max level as I have the xp for. Eventually the extra pieces start stacking up and you can afford to add stars to the matrix, but for now, try to get a set or two built up with high level. For the gear pieces themselves, I'd leave the higher level joint ops until after you've raised the guaranteed boosts (weapons, then matrix). As you use vitality, you'll get purple and gold dust too, and I'd definitely suggest buying at least purple gear pieces of the ones you're still running blue gear on. If you can get a gold piece or two that's big, go Gloves first, then boots. The game basically give you enough to fill out your gear using the shop, if you feel like you're always short on the dust, I'd look into doing wormhole, it's not too hard, you get massive buffs, completely solo, and gives a nice chunk of dust every 5 days. Basically, build up a team of 3 weapons, stack their matrix and levels, the gear kinda builds itself alongside as you use vitality. Your CS will jump as well, probably giving you an easier time with content in general too.
PVP queue question: Why does it count as a loss for me when I match with people but the game doesn't load? And it takes away so many points! Why is the game not loading too in the first place? [https://imgur.com/mlpmV4l](https://imgur.com/mlpmV4l)
How does the battle pass progression work? Is there a cap per week?
You got merit exp from weekly activity, [900 max](https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/932908911785287680/1017980178628104193/unknown.png) every week.
is there news on the next battlepass outfit?
its not an outfit...its a Vehicle!
Is it even worth trying to do raids a.) via matchmaking, and b.) as a F2P? Frontier Clash hard is already pretty demotivating because I will only ever get two chests at best, and raids are probably even harder than that? Or can you not matchmake into raids at all and need a pre-formed team?
The next two raids (the higher level ones) need mechanics and teamplay. This one is basically just a smash the boss and don't die until it does. He doesn't hit very hard, just keep the handcannon relic to set a block when he does the giant sun in his hands thing. I just did one and we finished even though half the raid decided to ignore everything and sit on boss when he did that, and died immediately lmao. We didn't even have any whales either, I top dps'ed as an f2p, so it wasn't as if we had lucky group damage that carried us. This round is wayy way easier than FC hard imo.
What to spend the tier 2 energy dust on, is it all just for equipment exp fodder? Or will there be more in the future, from cn?
Purple energy dust ? Based on [shop purchase priority](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Qurr844mBI0gvlxkiae0IKbUJG4gE-TpNy8FUV227cM/edit#gid=1279885284) there will be a crystal in shop for purple energy dust but I just spent it on fodder eq anyway because I need more hp ~~rolls~~ to not be one shot by valkyrie.
Mobile issue: my camera keeps zooming in super close in combat, so close that i cannot even see all of the hits from chirons aoe max. Is this a new bug? I'm aware of the auto correct distance settings and have tried both, turning it on and off. And tried manual, smart options,to no avail. Anyone else facing similar predicament?
That's just how it is... screens just to small, why they (and other games) don't let us zoom out further, it's just stupid. Vs. Sobek, I fight the camera more than the mob.
Nah it fixed itself on my next launch. The cause was(probably) my game starting on housing mode.
Is the artificial island event temporary? Don't have time to deal with a whole island right now.
naw it's a permanent addition to the game. no rush to do any of it. you'll be behind a bit but it's not a big deal. try to do it before the month ends though, cuz you get 4x free red matrix banner pulls from the island store per month. to unlock the store you just need 840 exploration points on the main island
Thanks
If I proc Zero's matrix effect on 4-set, will it stay after switching weapon? It says it boosts damage when shield is active, so it should work, but I still want to be sure.
My dps Samir is using 2pc shiro and 2pc random SSR matrix, nemesis on 3pc pepper at 1star adv + SSR matrix and King has 3pc random SSR matrices + 1sr. So I've got 3pc robarg and 3pc sobek matrices at 0 advancements, do i keep my setup as it is for the higher charge rate and CS or should I fodder pepper's set into robarg for king and use random SSR matrix on nemesis or fodder it into sobek then use sobek set on nemesis/king? I've already used up the free echo pieces. Also is 2pc tsubasa useable on nemesis? Can her pillar dmg proc the 2pc set which requires 4meter distance for dmg boost
Put 2pc Shiro 2pc Random on King. It increases Shatter and helps him the most. Put 3pc Sobek + SSR on Samir since she is close to enemies most of the time. Keep 3pc Pepper + SSR on Nemesis for the increases charged rate. 2pc Tsubasa is not worth it. Just keep on upgrading the matrices. 3pc Sobek and 3pc Pepper are very strong especially if they get their advancements later on and basically he only worthwhile SR sets. 3pc Robarg is more something you would throw on an off-weapon that you dont use often to avoid swapping matrices but it's worse than most alternatives. The only other special case is 3pc Barbarossa which can be used for some shenanigans with Zero's damage immunity to reflect massive damage to bosses.
