GameplayHelp FAQs: Difference between revisions

** A ton of great students are farmable, and you can eventually max them (this also makes rerolling not mandatory).

** PvP is RNG, the reward differences are pretty small, and brackets are about a few hundred players.

* While F2P income is pretty good (1 spark every 2 months), you’d have to whale or be insanely lucky to collect all the gacha-only students.

** There’s 60+ three stars in Global, more in JP, and that pool will keep growing.

* The tutorial multi pull guarantees one 3★ or more, but it’s limited to the seventeen 3★s at launch.

** They are: Iori, Hibiki, Aru, Hina, Haruna, Shun, Maki, Shiroko, Karin, Izumi, Saya, Hoshino, Eimi, Sumire, Neru, Tsurugi, and Hifumi.

* If you’re missing a lot of [https://bluearchive.wiki/wiki/GameplayHelp_FAQs#Rerolling essential 2★s] (especially Tsubaki, Momoi, Mutsuki and Chise who take a long time to farm & summon), you can consider doing a few more multi pulls. There are twenty two 2★s in the pool.

* The most important thing for your account isn’t a godly reroll; it’s the time and effort you put into it.

* Koharu joined the raid shop when JP got Torment difficulty (on Toki/Nagisa’s banners). It will take ~2.5 months to summon her if you buy her out every shop reset.

## See Midokuni’s “Glossary” tab for game terminology.

# Boost Serina to 2★.

## Hardcore players can consider boosting Tsubaki to 3★ for a small stat boost ([https://schale.gg/?item=13009 farmable in ch. 15]).

# Use Yuuka & Tsubaki or other evasion tanks before T4 bags (tier 4).

## After T4: Tsubaki is even stronger, Yuuka starts to struggle (still useable). She gets strong again with [https://bluearchive.wiki/wiki/GameplayHelp_FAQs#Bond_gear_&_dates bond gear] at bond 20.

## SHoshino is a tanky support, not a true tank. Wait until she can solo the frontlines (usually with a T4 bag).

'''Gear and levels'''

* If a Special needs attack/healing stats to do their job properly, then they need levels and gear. If not, you can skip them until difficult raids.

** Healer & shielding Specials need levels and [https://j163.au/#GearPriorityGuide slot 3 gear]. E.g. Serina, Hanae, Ako (for raids), SShizuko, Mari, Sena (to stay alive and do sad amounts of healing).

** Specials who just buff or can do their job without stats, do not need levels and gear. E.g. Kotama, Himari, Airi, Yoshimi, Shimiko (doesn’t need investment until torment Shirokuro).

** [https://j163.au/#SkillLevelingGuide Bricc Skill Leveling guide].

* Make team comps, check videos in that guide & the raid channel’s thread for an idea of unit investment & execution.

* For the raid schedule, see the pins in your discord’s raid channel.

====Extreme & Insane====

** 3★ supports work if they don’t need higher stats to do their job.

* For insane (very generally):

** Most supports can stay 3★, but others may need more (e.g. healers in Hiero to one-shot the lantern or heal it in a timely fashion).

* Higher investment is comfier, but since boosting is expensive, do it until the raid is ''comfy enough & reproducible''. Then save for the next few raids. See the raid channel’s pins for the latest raid schedule.

Some examples of good {{ItemCard|eligma}} targets. This doesn’t mean blindly 5★ all these units!

* Kaiten: Most units are farmable, and you bring another tanky frontliner with SHoshino.

* Peroro: BKarin, Iroha, Aris, NY Mutsuki for aoe. Wakamo, SAzusa for shiny hunting (insane).

* Wanpans are not even the fastest option sometimes. Depends on the boss, terrain, and available units.

* Raid process:

# Safe, slow extreme clears.

# Get stronger and start “speed running”, aka brute forcing extreme.
