Sutera actually goes to 5*. My wind team suddenly has a lot of level grinding to do because so does birdman.

Also, I have discovered that you can't do ability fates until you do intro fates. SSR Eugen's intro is only after chapter 58  :getdown: Story gets REALLY difficult after chapter 50 so I doubt I'll have that for a while.

in post-waking up mode: exact ssrs i rolled appear to be feena, varsevgus or something, and...garga something other. Fisty giant red dude.

Edit: I got 650 in new characters. Jesus. How do i get more storage space? I might need to cash in on it finally. Then I'm going to save for like a year to get enough to just yolo 300 pull for a grand order to not suck

Edit: found it, blew my refund on space. Shit is too pricey. Cut that shit in a tenth, honestly.

Edit: Decided to finally look up the Anchila scandal and -holy what the fuck son-. What in the hell is wrong with this game and it's developers as a whole.

What? Hell no, I've seen more than enough of this game to realize it is an absolute waste of money.

I'm just saying. 100 crystals for 10 slots feels like a ripoff.

Edit: Relatedly, I've figured out why Maria's Treasure hunt has such a long CD for such little raw th stacks.

It's an AOE.

Edit: Ending event 40 short of second sword of earth. I suppose it's...fine, I guess. Banking 15k for next round.

I completed my objective of point dagger for this event, got that wind boost too late for it to matter. Also doesn't help that my magna luck completely ran out after obtaining a ygg sword right as I was able to buy one from the shop so all that I've been getting are SRs and ygg magna summons (to the point where I capped it and then instantly drew an extra). The wind pool doesn't mind but everywhere else does and yeah. Also bought myself low on medals and then hit a bad streak in poker so I'm broke in the casino whups  :derp:

edit: rolled one last single to send off legfest, got SR Ferry. Comedy option now would be to get light Sarunan or Arusha and go full light Erun team.

After I got Vohu 3* and the event point dagger, I focused entirely on magna farming, clearing story, and getting as far as I can in coop.

Colo was MLB'd, but my fire team damage is still terrible due to lack of skill levels and attack power.

Story was cleared reaching the end point of chapter 60. Of particular note, difficulty spike starts at the second time you fight
Spoiler:
Wicked
Ygg which I had to use an AP pot to clear even with 200% Grande as support. From there, difficulty of each chapter goes up and down with a couple of roadblocks that requires careful planning or a enough healing to get through. Chapter 60 was more or less an endurance/dps race coming down to the wire with a barely alive Stela left. I only have side quests from here which I'll clear at a slower pace.

Coop up to EX2 was cleared with the help of high level players that were kind enough to put up with me being carried.

I end with 1500 in the event for next time.

I decided to throw one more 10 roll at the gacha for ill-advised reasons, given I should -really- start saving crystals for 90k spam in the future (and I don't think antilla has returned after the initial debacle with her?)

I got light Sarunan (i think), bringing me up to 4/5 on SSR rolls. And giving me an SSR in my strongest color iirc.

Okay now to never roll legfes again until december.

Edit: also wait, the cross-fate system is actually still a thing in game? That's...kinda explicitly against law though, what.

In short, Japan has a law against selling things that combine into a larger item. Specifically, things that are a set that makes something better.

I guess this isn't -entirely- the case, but this is pretty much making two different SSR a set in the end. I'm...kinda curious if this has been taken to court or not, because man that's basically way too close to the line.

Straight up stat boosts. Sarunan's with himself is around 200 attack.

I think the JP law is actually about fill-in bingo cards for Gachas, where you have to get 1 of everything to fill the card for some super-prize. Don't really know about this game or if any more new laws came out though.

I... don't know how this would be against the law? First thing I thought of was Fire Emblem support convos.

ANYWAYS.

http://granbluefantasy.jp/pages/?p=6757

Basically announcing the timeline for the Idol event (until March 8, 5 PM JST) and new units, all of which are fire.

ザルハメリナ, SSR Fire Harbin: Pure support unit. Has a barrier+regen move, increases fire attack and wind res, and gives everyone a last stand passive. Also has lower hostility but lower defense, so AoE moves and bad targeting luck will hurt. Also has a new field effect called Flare, but we don't know what that does yet. Damage probably won't be bad either because she looks to be a staff user.

アオイドス, SSR Fire Human: Whole bunch of "tension" related abilities. Dunno if that means ougi meter or what. Also has a counter passive and a skill that increases his hostility.

ライアン, SR Fire Human: Attacker. Atk up/Def down skill, AoE nuke, selfheal, counter passive.

ラムレッダ, R Fire Doraf: If you don't recognize that name, it's Ramretta. Dunno what her skills do since the descriptions are nonsense so eh.

Yeah, which is kinda where I guess they're getting away with it. Since it's only 'supplementing' another card.

I... don't know how this would be against the law? First thing I thought of was Fire Emblem support convos.

The statistic advantage, the explicit advantage for doing the convo. Kinda my problem, if it was just a convo, sure...

ok, tension is another damage mult. There's 4 levels, 10-30-60-100% damage boost for one turn depending on which one you get.

The SSR idol summon gives a random level of tension to the entire party. Also worth it to do the event for the SSR wind sword since there's actually so few of those floating around right now.

Floating. I see what you did there.  :V

In all seriousness though, the idol summon would definitely help for ougi burst damage.

The Cinderella Girls game on mobage is like any stereotypical mobage card game like Rage of Bahamut from what I could gather. If you're doing it for the legend crystals, be my guest. I'll stick to Starlight Stage whenever I get around to it again.

I'm more curious to find out if there's a way to get previous characters like Rin. Gosh I want my Rin. Healer Uzuki would be nice too.

You're looking at something different. What I'm referring to is something else. You can log in to the Cinderella game by going through the daily login. (Btw, daily logins are handy for collecting extra crystals and legend rolls. All you need to do is see the daily login rewards and exit.) And from there, you can get rewards for GBF if you get up to rank 40 in that game. Details in the Ultimate Guide.

I hear there's another requirement if you want to get older characters, but I'm not sure. Regardless,  it's just incredibly tedious to taptaptaptap on the phone/bluestacks just to get the rewards, so I say screw it.

Edit: Note to remake this thread when English is finally released and reorder information and such.

Event details if you haven't seen them yet. Other details to be released on event day.

http://gbf-english.proboards.com/thread/849/cinderella-fantasy-girls-dreams-continue

Somehow managed to get to lv20 in the Cinderella game, and man that was a pain.

Some small Cinderella game guides because you will need them.
GBF x CG Idols list: http://pastebin.com/wjTEY7xa (old info?)
CG Game Help: https://sites.google.com/site/idolmastercinderellagirls/home

Warning about the CG game, it is one of the worst-designed UI I have ever seen. Maybe it's because I can't read Japanese, but it's not intuitive either how to change up your units or train them. At least you don't need to mess with it too much and just spam working.

If anything, you do this for Ranko and Uzuki. Because Smile(ing)!

http://grancypher.com/2016/03/11/2nd-anniversary-mar-10-game-updates/

Basically:
1) 7 single pulls we knew about this

2) Bunch of paid stuff (Star Gacha, Surprise Ticket in all but name, Cag/Seruel/Yuri/someone else skins)

3) Order Grande raid, takes 10 anima from Nataku/Makyura/Medusa/Flam=Glass/Apollon/Olivia (more on this later) and 120 anima shards to create

4) Baha HL and final upgrade for baha weapons, this is stuff way in the endgame

5) Cosmos weapons from Grande, buffs all weapons that are the same type as the Cosmos weapon and gives an effect to certain character classes (Attackers get more attack but lose defense, Defense gets extra Defense and HP, Balance gets DA and Def, Supports get regen and better healing, and Specials get improved debuffs)

6) Conquest rotation. Started on Cocytus, rotates every 2 days. Also, Normal's gone and there's a new Maniac difficulty that drops lb4 mats and (probably stupidly) rarely Hihiirokanes but is evidently harder than Hell mode (4 fights!)

7) New weapons were added to those summons listed in the third point. Drop versions have magna modifiers, craftable versions (HAHA LOOK AT THE REQUIREMENTS) have normal mods. Said mods can be quite off-the-wall (Earth Harp has med and small Attack mods but lowers consecutive attack rate, Wind lowers HP but buffs your first 3 turns, etc)
7a) Fire is still not allowed to have an attack stat

8 ) Berserk and Sage, the tier 4 Weapon Master and Bishop respectively, have been added. Notably, they have their class non-ex skill (weapon burst and heal) and then the next two slots can be filled with any EX skills from the line (and you have your 4th slot that can have any skill). This might require rank 101+ though along with the class weapon requirement so don't go rushing off just yet though.

9) Rank limit up (and new Zenith skills) whoo?

10) Some UI changes to the team builder, including the ability to lock your mainhand when configuring your pool.

11) Guild ship max level raised go start feeding :V oh and BGMs/backgrounds

12) Tears for spending AP. Not fully implemented

13) 300 rolls came with a pleasant surprise: If you don't get 300, the rolls you did are converted to crystals that can be traded in for stuff (notably the 20 crystals for a blue crystal)

14) Moons, you can look this up ingame but also know that you can buy a single moon each month with gacha points and there's some deals in here as well such as 2 silver moons or 5 bronze moons=30 1/2 AP pots or a SSR dupe getting you 2500 JP

secret "it was in an earlier post" 15) character updates. Gandagouza (punchy fire guy Chaore got) has a kit that ACTUALLY WORKS NOW, Carmelina actually got worse (her 2nd skill overwrites DF gravity whups), and Six... uh... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lQn8vgSrWd8

Thanks for the update, Smashy.

Regarding Sage and Berserk, you need 20 pieces of some job class drops from EX (rare according to Ted) as well as 2500 JP. Sage and Berserk more or less gives you a lot of flexibility that previous jobs from the same tree don't have for the high requirements. Totally worth it.

zzzz Well I guess gadgouza being a good card now is something for me.

Overall, kinda disappointing I guess. Unless I chucked in for the ticket or something (But I don't think a single SSR would breakpoint me either, and the big names don't appear to be in, and that's a waste of 30 bucks- what do you mean f/go ny roll was more expensive shut up okay okita is great ;; )
