  • What's with deal with Bracelets now?

    Doesn't help that there is less interest in running specials. The old specials could be cleared quickly. Now the new specials take longer to clear with no good rewards. Damascus steel rate is worse than raids and bracelets are too rare to chase. And now there is better ways to get seals faster.

  • is NA stuff better than EU??

    While the variation and creativity is certainly worse I think what stands out more is how they've increased the effort required to acquire an item and it just isn't worth the effort anymore.

    The current bingo event is a perfect summary of how events have evolved for the worse. You can complete the board once. To do this you have two weeks to complete 55 to 90 raids PER character depending on 1. RNG and 2. your board clear strategy. This does not include an additional 20 raids per character if you want the 2 titles.

  • Level 90 welfare gear

    Satsue wrote: »
    it would have to be reforged first

    That is incorrect. It can be enhanced and should be YOLO'd as :emer: suggested.

    90 Welfare gear obtained from returning mercenary package: CANNOT be enhanced unless reforged
    90 Welfare gear obtained through a current character growth package: CAN be enhanced and fused with armor fusion runes

    Eira's 95 armor obtained through pre-registration package: CANNOT be enhanced unless reforged
    Eira's 95 weapon obtained through level up event: CANNOT be enhanced unless reforged

    ===

    Here's what I recommend:
    * Equip the +12 dullahan armor.
    * Enhance the +12 90 armor. If any piece goes to +14 or higher replace the corresponding dullahan armor with that piece.
    * Use the +12 90 weapon unless you have a better replacement. Only YOLO the 90 weapon if you want to use you have a spare AP or restore scrolls.
    * Do not use the +10 95 weapon. Rather if you are looking to upgrade from the 90 weapon starting working on completing the "United Front" storyline which will give you free stones that will jump a dullahan weapon to +12.

    if you mean the red crystals that shoot everywhere when the boss dies, they are Ergs, they recover HP when touched

    Oops I overlooked the more obvious answer. I thought crystals was code word for red sands.
