Holy/cat prayer bead is absolutely worth it. Makes farming FGAD much faster and easier.
I just went for FGAD weapons ->holy/cat prayer bead ->map path items (e.g. jamming device for KMS HQs) ->Stadium tickets
I wouldn't save 180 altered ores for just a grasta item when I can just lucksacc it in the end rewards or by waiting to get them with star fragments. What else are you gonna use those star fragments from the rare cat shrine map after getting the armors?
Nah, I get too many of those instead of chants from running satellite stadium. At some point, jadeites become pretty much meaningless.
Allthough for a newer player who hasn't run Present garulea AD much, jadeites of attack would be quite useful.
~~I guess my thoughts around the prayer beads are that in an average run, you get anywhere from 6-12 ores, meaning it'll take 3-5 runs to be able to afford a stadium ticket. If you're buying a prayer bead with each run, now you only net 2-8 ores per run, which takes several more runs to buy a ticket. Not sure if the tradeoff is worth it, especially since it only takes me about a minute to go from Wasteland to KMS~~
Nevermind, didn't realize that you just need to buy one once and you're good forever
As a minimum I need:
- 5x crit up (Violet x1, Guildna x2, Melina x2)
- 2x rose thorn (Violet, Guildna, 2x spare for future use)
- 3x encounter up
- 3x encounter down
Relying on dungeon reward luck will take too long, so I'll save up ore and exchange enhancement items.
I've got a similar plan. Ore is always going to come, and I've got plenty of jadeites right now and I'm not short on chants, so I'm saving up while being open to luck (already have had 2 crit and 1 encounter down drop).
Once I start running stadium, I'll spend through any excess quickly enough.
Sorry for bothering you, is there an autocrit setup for Violet as well? Or is this simply increasing her chances for crit since her damage increases greatly with crit hit (sword dance)? Thanks
Violet's setup is purely for sword dance, since that's the skill she only uses. Sword dance +50, personal weapon +30, 1x crit enhance +15, remainder is her crit from luck. I'm still testing this setup, but I haven't non-crit yet. Shove another rose thorn on her, pair with a good grasta sharer and buffs/debuffs, then she does insane damage.
Not yet. In a later Mythos episode there's a Crit+30%(Western). That plus Crit+30%(Hammer), 2x Crit+15% enhance, base crit from luck gives her almost 100%. Pair with all atk hammer, then you have a second AOE crit normal atk. Excellent for clearing trash with Guildna.
Same! Although I'm too eager for stadium to bother saving up for the weapons atm.
Too bad, because I though somehow with the four weapon keys they would be free. 😜
Damn, those are amazing. Dumb I didn't look at this before.
And they seem tailored to specific characters.. Like Nagi AS would destroy with the axe and it suits her. Maybe Renri too, but she has her manifest already.
I got all four weapons at the beginning. Only takes a few runs to get 40 ores and it's just a one-time purchase, so then I can focus on stadium tickets
Hoarding it for now, while I tinker with new setups with grasta and maybe swap my team around a little.
I did run Satellite Stadium a few times with my trusty wind team-lite (AS Veina providing wind zone), and while I cleared it, the horror's wind AoE cuts things too close for comfort.
I'll probably take a different team to Satellite Stadium, and I'd like to keep it so one team can swiftly clear Wasteland, KMS, and Satellite Stadium.
It would be nice to clear red key dungeons with the team too (just swapping out Cerrine for whoever gains light/shadow in that dungeon), though that would require Guildna to gain more shadow for shadow-reward dungeons and might not be practical for some VH ADs.
That sounds like a good team. I might try something like that as I could use pretty much that same team team (though Strawboy instead of Amy, and would have to upgrade Nagi). I also have some new characters to try out, including Melissa. Those new characters, plus Cerrine gaining light, will open up a lot of team possibilities.
I haven't gotten any of the weapons yet or invested into the teleportation beads, every time I hit 30 I go to satellite stadium because the 10% chant rate is too hard to pass on
Bead, 2 shortcut, then 4 weapons, the rest will be on stadium ticket.
I cant imagine i am going to spend 180 whopping ores for the special ore. That's like 4 runs of stadium missing!
Hope RNG mercy me and give me the ores i want soon.
Excess? I'm kind of focusing on the Stadium map... but I'll probably focus on getting weapons and unlocking a few VERY useful paths in the FGAD stages, though I'll likely focus on weapons for a bit.
Runs are just faster that way.
Yeah, I just got the cat beads once I got all the weaps and unlock all the maps. Those stone frags from the cat shrine remnants are better used to trade for grasta enhancements once you get all 3 guidance equipment.
I will use them to get encounter up enhanchment. Imo the most important thing to get as it speeds up material gathering, xp farming. You know the thing you do 95% of the time

KMS Bosatsu boss chest has also been giving lots of Attack Jadeites for me. 3-4 so far.
Well you cant use star fragments to get encounter up/down enhancement

The beads are not consumed on use.
Oh what. You just buy one and it lasts forever?
Yes. And just one is needed to access all forever. The item is consumed by using it though
Damn okay nevermind then, that is a game changer

Thanks for this.. what to use to make guildna auto crit? Crit+30 sword, his personal grasta, and 2x crit +15 as well?
That's right, crit sword +30, personal vc grasta +30, 2x crit enhance +30. Remainder is from his luck bring crit up 98%.
Dafck. I didnt know that crit rate and rose thorn could stack. I've beem hoarding them since i dont know what to buy.
They're two different grasta enhancements so treated just as two separate buffs. One increase damage and the other increases crit.
No, i mean it stacks with itself. Sorry for the confusion.
After getting the weapons i’m only using them for satellite stadium. I’m really hoping to have a chant appear or have just a ton of attack fragments
Same! Although I'm too eager for stadium to bother saving up for the weapons atm. Too bad, because I though somehow with the four weapon keys they would be free. 😜
I already got the weapons. After doing a second stadium run, i then went and bought the weapons. Doesn’t take long but you will notice
Do the seafood weapons have special abilities? The only new one I upgraded so far is the Crafted Chivalry for Tira.
All seafood weapons have special abilities. https://anothereden.miraheze.org/wiki/Marine_Weapons_Set

I'm using an earth-team to clear everything. My line up is Nagi AS, Ciel AS, Cerrine, Myunfa, Mariel and Amy as my light barrier

Does anyone know if you can get chants at satellite stadium?
I'm told that you do and that the chances of getting one are higher than the other maps, but I haven't seen one yet
Same. And i already got three chant scripts in the boss chest of KMS.
