Hando's coming back in June!
Dang straight. And we're going to have an awesome smash fest when I come back. We might even do it on my birthday, July 20th, because the new batman is coming out then. We could watch batman and play smash. Sound good?

Some stuff I found out:

Dualizing. Items can be taken to rank 99 via shards, while combining them with crystals creates an entirely new weapon with different qualities and half the stat boost. It also resets the weapon to lvl 0, so the best weapons are created by dualizing up to 99, converting, and dualizing up to 99 again. Half that stat boost is carried over each time. There are abilities specific to certain converted weapons too. Converting doesn't always improve a weapon, but converted armor is better every time. New equipment may still be preferable though, depending on what you're looking for (new/better abilities like improved healing rates or CC bonuses). And the final weapons are strictly better. Dualized items and gems also retain the two highest level abilities, one from each. If the highest lvl abilities are the same, the higher is retained and the second ability is taken from the other. If two abilities are identical, the product gets a +1 bonus. This effect can double, e.g. Attack(3)Defense(2)+Attack(3)Defense(2) = Attack(4)Defense(3). But if you combine two items with a shared ability and the lower level doesn't have a second ability, the product will be inefficient (Atk(2)Def(1)+Atk(1) = Atk(2). This process is the best way to get what you want, so for my character we'd focus on any two of Rise (min CC+1 every three levels), Exceed (max CC +1 every two) or Reinforce (increase CC recovery rate). Oh yeah, and ACC/EVA are generally held to be the most important stats (as opposed to Atk, Def, etc.)

Dualizing also gets really expensive at later levels, so going for that Rise(9)Exceed(9) gem is going to be hard. But using an initially cheap weapon (like our current ones) dramatically lessens the price, so we should keep them around for that purpose. Getting a gem like that is super important. It singlehandedly determines how much I can do in the game. Same for everyone else, whichever stat they may favor. *Scrolling through the shards while dualizing, orange numbers reflect an improvement while green identifies a new quality.

Items also have a resell multiplier/value built into this process, and there are certain optimized equipments we can make for major mulah if needed (250,000-500k).

Lvl 3 mystic artes all require shenanigans to obtain, though mine is just sitting in a chest. Asbel's takes some work though. His title that lets him mystic arte after a certain combo length (like Seif and I already have) also has some work behind it. We have to get 30 karuta cards. Sophie's... everything is the worst though. So much effort.

A cute little easter egg is that every character (except Richard) has a favorite food. Feed it to them ten times and they get a title. Mine is banana pie for instance, and I get a max CC+1 for it. Cheria's is a grilled chicken bowl, and Asbel's is curry. Good taste all around.

Hard: Defense
Cool: Mind
Cute: Resist
Rapt: Aim
Oily: Evade
Buff: Vitality
Cold: Speed
Grand: Gain
Noble: Absorb
Suave: Blessing

Barbed: Paralyze
Frosty: Freeze
Stuffy: Burn

Solemn: Slow
Untamed: Revenge
Gallant: Refresh
Haughty: Refill
Sketchy: Rise
Magical: Exceed
Epochal: Reinforce

Man today was fun. Unfortunately, it's almost over. :cry:

It seems that I listened to "Somebody that I use to know" about 70 times in the past two days. It's too easy to put on repeat and listen to a billion times.
thanks a lot gvice
Yeah, sorry. That song has been running through my head all day and night lol

Good question. We usually travel for such things :c Maaaaybe in the summer?

Oh wow, a lot of the fans hate Cheria because she's cold to Asbel for awhile... what the snapz do real emotions confuse these people I don't understand. She's so justified I can't even.

Seif's would be the perfect show for Vts lol. Brains Base was made to animate his life. In fact, the both of you should switch.

Yoshiman's is spot-on AKA LAME



Damn they got me good.
