Hi, Im Kaci. I play too much Kingdom Hearts. If you've got questions, I've got answers.

With the new Key Arts (Air, Bonds & the other one), does it matter if they're guilted? Or do they copy a medal exactly, down to guilts and traits and all that?? Thanks in advance! This blog is a blessing lol

This is a great question!! I actually had the same question about the new Key Arts (which are now colloquially named Copy Arts).

They use their own:
-Strength
-Guilt
-Traits
-Skill
-Slot multiplier
-Cost

They use the previous medal’s:
-Multiplier
-Type
-Number of hits
-Buffs/debuffs, when applicable

In other words, guilting, boosting, and trait rolls are all very important on the Copy Arts. They can make any non-guilted medal do guilted damage, or have medals with sucky trait rolls use really good trait rolls. A guilted Copy Art with Str +1000 or -60% Ground and Aerial with Cloud EX would just be the end of the world. o_o But non-guilted Copy Arts can be useful too for buffs like Tieri or +3 Str medals. Or if you draw the new Dragon Maleficent! Getting Extra Attack on Copy Art also makes it a huge asset to Coliseum because you can Defense Down like crazy.

I have a huge love for Copy Arts. I think they are very versatile. And you are guaranteed to have one guilted in 10 pulls, but probably more like 6. That’s better than any banner we’ve had for a long time.

Anyway, I hope this helped!!

HSC Guide ~ Sora & Donald & Goofy B

image

New High Score Challenge!  This HSC has a lot going on medal-wise, so let’s do a quick breakdown.

There are only six multipliers, which is sort of a dick move on SENA’s part.  Four of them - HD B, HG B, Shark, and F&J are 10% and one of them is guaranteed from each 10 pull during the event.  Then Key Art 3 (14%) and Ursula (21%) are the premiums, which have no mercy pull but come with three dots already.  Why KA3 is less than Ursula I cannot fathom.  Money-grabbing I guess.

There’s more to say about this, but let’s get the enemy list out first.

Right to left, in sort of a zig-zag fashion:

Lv. 180 Yellow Copter Fleet* (S)
Lv. 180 Invisible (S)
Lv. 350 Red Copter Fleet***** (P)
Lv. 120 Fire Plant (M)
Lv. 25 Bandit x3 (S)
Lv. 80 Armored Knight (P) & Bad Dog x2 (P)
Lv. 120 High Wizard (M) & Fire Plant (M)
Lv. 25 Bad Dog x3 (P)
Lv. 80 Armored Archer (S) & Bandit x2 (S)
Lv. 25 Blue Gummi Copter (M) x3
Lv. 120 Aeroplane*** (S)
Lv. 80 Ice Plant (M) & Blue Gummi Copter x2 (M)
Lv. 180 Wyvern (P)**
Lv. 150 Gargoyle (S) & Aeroplane*** (S)
Lv. 200 High Wizard (M) x2
Lv. 150 Large Armor (P)
Lv. 180 Chocolate Gargoyle*** (S) x2
Lv. 300 Red Copter Fleet***** (P)
Lv. 250 Cannon Gun**** (S) & Fat Bandit (P)
Lv. 400 Fat Bandit (P)
~*Target*~ Lv. 25 Bandit (S)

15 Special bars over 5 chests

*SM Def +2
**Str +1
***Def +2
****PSM Def +2
*****PS Def +2

As you can see, the “ignores attribute” damage of WoFF medals are a huge advantage here.  The Red Fleets are probably going to be your biggest problem with their high damage output and multiple hits, plus that type defense.  You can Defense Boost through the Fat Bandit pretty easily.  You should always try to attack the Red Fleets first so you don’t waste time retrying if you get killed.  If you don’t have good WoFF medals, you should be stacking magic medals. (I suppose that’s Ursula’s role, if you manage to pull her.)  On another note, Flotsam & Jetsam lower strength by one tier for one turn so it might help survivability during multiplier runs.  Moana + Classic Donald is a great F2P model, but you’re going to need some AB2/3 and a decent Nova.  Then there’s always Sleep+.

Rewards:

So there are two new reward medals: the tier 4 premium Sora & Donald & Goofy B and the epic Young King Mickey.  Both ignore target attributes, but SDG B is AOE and YKM is single target.  SDG B is also only one cost.

The first YKM you get is at 10 million points, which is a full clear with 0% multiplier.  If you manage to get to 20 million, you’ll have a total of 4 YKM.  In Ranking, you can get one in the top 20k.  The easiest way to guilt here is Top 2k with 20 million points, which I find incredibly unrealistic.  But we’ll get to that.

SDG B is rewarded to the top 5k but is only guilted in the top 1k with at least 23 million points.  Since my 0% run got me 11.56 million, you’re looking at around a 100% multiplier.  

For the sake of our own personal sanity, let’s say you only need 91%.  That’s three Ursulas and two KA3.  Your extra slot in this case would go to iKairi.  Let’s assume you can take a friend’s Ursula.  But you’ll need another Ursula because you’ll need at least one guilted to get enough damage to take out those Red Fleets in one turn.  That’s a lot of luck - five premiums in however many pulls you do.  And the truth of the matter is, you’ll probably need 98%, which is even less likely.  Hell, you could pull 10 KA3 and still not have the necessary multiplier to guilt SDG B!  O_O  How’s that for perspective?

So then we come back to YKM, which is requiring 20 million.  That’s still at least 66%.  Taking a friend’s Ursula, you’d need a full load out of the 10% epic medals to get that percentage.  And with those medals, you won’t clear the Fleets.  So you need at least one premium to guilt YKM.

Four hours ago I was a little excited for this event.  I was actually checking my finances to see if I had a hundred bucks spare cash, because two guaranteed guilted premiums sounded too good to pass up.  Now, I’m not sure I’ll pull at all.  Tieri and Anniversary event are soon, and if there’s no chance at guilting even YKM…

This event frustrates me…

Anyway.  Good luck.  I’ll be praying for all your 10-pulls!!
