From the Taiwan Terra Battle groups and terrabattleforum posted:

First choice = the mages (Lewto, Piz'fer, Jennish, Zerro)
Second choice = the twin sisters (Yukken > Rikken)
Third choice = everyone else
====
The mages can AoE and activate multiple times as long as they are chained, they also have self heals/regens and 1 time self revival.
All 4 mages have the same skill set, row AoE is second job and column AoE is third job.
They also offer capsules (team resist buff) against their opposite element, each capsule adds 10% resist (up to 50% pure capsules, 100% in combination with other skills).
Capsule activation is similar to power point, chaining them at any time activates the buff.

Koko/Czekras/Samatha/Gaiga would be the next best damage dealers when compared to mages, their attacks are all of a single element.
Attack skill sets are very similar, other than Gaiga everyone have a 3x3 AoE around themselves and either a row or column AoE.

Koko offers ice capsules.
Czekras has "add action", a delay like Echidna but only on mobs.
Samatha has negotiator and second job can be equiped with full physical damage to avoid clashing elements.
Gaiga has chain death resist and can cast "death", doesn't work on bosses and hit rate is around 30% after activation.

The thing about elements is that from chapter 21-25 bosses resist same element and after chapter 26 everything will start to absorb same element as heals. But the damage against opposite element is ridiculous, so they are still worth it under those limitations.

The twin sisters both have a 3x3 AoE with themselves as the center, a self heal, +2 seconds control time, and negotiator pro.
What negotiator pro does is not very clear, description in Japanese says "increase drop rate for monster that can join you" while English says "increase drop rate for items".
Player experience is that Japanese's description is correct and it increases monster drop rate.

Rikken is a pure bow type that has a lot of high ranking attack skills, she also has the "heal all" skill that can heal everyone for a decent amount. Her AoE can inflict paralyze.
Yukken's 3 jobs cover all 3 weapon types and has many attacking skills (one of them being tera), making her very versatile. Her AoE can inflict confuse.

Yukken is often the more preferable one for starting roll due of her multi-weapon type, which helps when you don't have a lot of good units to work with.

Gugba is a super late bloomer, bombs are dangerous but there are many S/A characters for disarm, his own bombs does virtually nothing. He does gain a tera rank attack skill along with a full map attack skill at third job, but he requires more exp than other SS so it's not exactly easy to get there.
Olber is a tank with physical resist capsules and evasion rate up buffs. At second job he gains fixed chain heals (1500 for 2 skills together), and at third job he gains a passive that lets him take damage for everyone which can be very good or very bad depending on what you're doing (requires further testing).

The healers are ok but not recommended at the moment due to the starting healer being Kuscah, and he can handle most healing by himself. Not having a SS damage dealer will only slow your progress.
Revival skills only activate when moving from floor to floor, but has no limits on how many times/how fast it can activate.

Amina has a lot of healing skills, her special skill is team revival (1 HP each).
Amimari's second job is sword and can provide decent dps while healing during midgame, but her better healing skill is at third job.
Her revival skill revives an ally with 1/2 HP.
A'misandra has chain death resist buff and can cast debuff that prevent enemy from casting healing, but both of them have very limited uses. Her revival skill revives 2 allies with 1/4 HP each.

Aw my only Spear guy is a dumb monster I have. I got the lightning sword guy Bagunar from chapter 4 and it seems like elements will be important so I had to kick out Bahl for now since he just uses normal swords.

The rest of my part is Grace, SS Healer Amisandra, SS archer Rikken, Dumb sabertooth spear user, and Kuscah who I'm thinking of kicking out because I usually don't need 2 healers.

Maaan, I have a Yukken account from when I was playing Canadian but it doesn't get Kuscah so I really don't want to start with it.

THE AWESOME GHOST posted:

Ugh so it looks like the Amisandra I got is not as good as I thought Didn't get a single mage in 3 rolls either. I did get Rikken who I am using, but at the moment she and Grace basically do the same thing.

Healers do kinda crap damage too, having 2 is not that useful a lot of the time because they're basically useless for pincer attacking. Sometimes I can only match the 2 healers and it does like 20 damage per hit, even if you chain lots of other guys.

Duranki posted:

I've been playing on iOS the past two days and don't get how you guys are rerolling, since the first draw is one of two characters, and second draw is Kuscah? Or is everyone rerolling and using that code each time to get someone good?

DoubleWelp posted:

I got Lewto on my second reroll.

Reiterpallasch posted:

Also because of the B/SS experience thing and the fact that Kuscah's revive is in his second job and Amimari's is in her third job (i.e gated by a very rare boss weapon drop) there's a good chance that Kuscah will have his revive spell significantly before Amimari does. Also just use the Metal Zone tickets we all just got to get your level 1s back up to speed, I guess.

Postal Parcel: do you know if skill boosts are additive or multiplicative? If a character has a 50% skill and 50% skill boost, is the proc rate 75% or 100%?

When you complete the tutorial you get 5 energy to spend. There's also the code for 5 more. You finish the tutorial, spend the 10 energy, and then clear the app data if you don't get anything good.

Can I play this on Bluestacks or some other emulator?

Notinghamington posted:

Today I logged in to mail from the DEV with 3 metal zone tickets. Anyone else get these?

Rangpur posted:

Played through the first three chapters, seems fun. Trouble is, I've rerolled six times now and gotten one of the same two A-rank stonefolk every time. Don't remember the names, neither was anything special. Has anyone else experienced the same free pact showing up that many times in a row?

On a note of art, for people who have reached 3rd job or viewed the pics of it, there's quite a bit of body horror in this game. Grace gets a robo-arm, Amina turns into a robot, Lewto puts his spirit beast inside of his stomach butthole. What goes down in the world of Terra!?

I guess that twitter code isn't working anymore?

SilverMike posted:

Everything in the current attack that has been pincered will have a 3x3 area dropped on it. The damage doesn't stack, but it makes great killing fields.

Example: > and < are the pincering units, 0 is something hit by the attack.

pre:

If a normal attack is >0<
Pincer Area is 000
               >0<
               000

Ah but you got Bahl instead of Grace, better chuck that one in the bin sorry.
