Arabian Outfits Event!!

image

It’s just a standard event coin thing: do the mission, get coins, spend them on the avatar boards.  No special medals or anything.  So let’s get started.

The mission itself costs 2AP, so you can spam it.  It’s not a really hard mission - just very time consuming.  All the watermelons - of which there are three kinds - are Power type and have -2 Defense and -2 Type-Defense.  So when we get up to those crazy health bars, don’t get too intimidated.  (The + numbers next to Huge Watermelons is how many extra health bars they have after the four green ones.)

Screen 1:

x3 Lv 25 Wicked Watermelon
x3 Lv 25 Wicked Watermelon
x3 Lv 25 Wicked Watermelon
x3 Lv 25 Wicked Watermelon
Lv. 75 Large Watermelon
Lv. 75 Large Watermelon
Lv. 75 Large Watermelon
Lv. 75 Large Watermelon
Lv. 100 Huge Watermelon +13.5
~*TARGET*~ Lv 25 Wicked Watermelon

Special chest - 6 bars
x11 Silver chests

Screen 2: 

Lv. 150 Huge Watermelon +13.7
Lv. 150 Huge Watermelon +13.7
Lv. 200 Huge Watermelon +13.9
Lv. 250 Huge Watermelon +14.2
Lv. 300 Huge Watermelon +14.4

x2 Special chests - 3 bars
x1 Special chest - 6 bars ~ in front of lv. 300

By the end of the mission you should have about 21 silver prizes, 5 gold prizes, and 460ish coins. (On a side note, skipping the second screen entirely nets you around 75 coins and is soooo not worth it.)

Each board is 5000 coins to complete.  10,000 total.  Then two bonus boards if you hate yourself.

Blue Board: Arabian Scout
~Arabian Scout outfit
~Scimitar
~Fez
~Gloves
~Moogle x2
~1 Huey, 1 Dewey, & 1 Louie
~H&D&L x2
~Chip +180

~Cid
Title: Peppy

Pink Board: Arabian Emerald

~H&D&L x2

~Dale +180
~Cid
Title: Hidden

Strategy:
Go in with a full special bar.  Go to the right screen first and start blowing everything up strongest to weakest.  If you need Special come back to the first room and kill things.  Kill everything.  Kill the target.

Everyone is super susceptible to damage.  The only one that can one-shot you I think is the lv. 300, so be careful.  Bring DB2 and APP if you’ve got it.  Buff medals, high damage.  Everything is single target.

All the Wicked and Large watermelons can basically be auto-attacked down.  After you kill everything else, kill those to build your Special back up for the next run.

That’s all!  Have fun!

Ends 10/6.

Be Our Guest! Event Guide

image

Long story short: you need 10,000 coins to get all the stuff.  That’s seven Sweetheart Beasts to guilt, and one Prince & Belle.  Guilting Sweetheart Beast will reward you with a 6* Chip and 6* Dale at a later point.  The medals aren’t very special: just low levels heals.  Do the missions, get the coins!  

Mission 3 gives about 80-85 coins in my experience, so that’s about 120 runs.

Mission 4 gives about 475-500 if you can clear everything (ha!) so that’s only 21 runs.

So Mission 4 is a bit rude.  It has three level 150 Search Ghosts, buffed with strength up x2.  They are easy to one turn, though.  Then there are three sets of Cannon Guns in the other room.  They are:
~x1 Lv. 200 Cannon Gun
~x2 Lv. 220 Cannon Gun
~x1 Lv. 230 Cannon Gun & x2 Lv. 150 Cannon Gun
Each Cannon Gun has x2 type-defense boost.

Beating the three Search Ghosts and ignoring the Cannon Guns gives about 115 each run, which is about 87 runs.

BUT!!

If you can manage to beat two Cannon Guns (I took on the Lv. 220 pack) you can satisfy one of the Mickey stamps.  You CAN use continues to do this.  Then do a second run where you don’t use a continue and don’t open any treasure chests.  Once you satisfy all three Mickey stamps you can use Skip Tickets to give you ~500 coins per ticket.

When I have enough AP to figure out the title for this board, I’ll add it to the guide.  No title.

Good luck!!  Event ends 9/22!!

Ever wonder how those Moogles are in every single KH world?

Just watch KHUX Theater Mode: Episode 5, now up and running!

Guide to Guilt

Once you hit Mission 200 34, you get an item called a Power Bangle.  That means little symbols appear next to those empty circles in your 6* medals:

image

You fill those bubbles by combining identical cards.  By combining 6, the guilt icon lights up and it give you a percent multiplier to your special attack. 

image

However, there are four eight (and counting!) tiers of guilt, to complicate things even further, and you can tell which tier a medal is by the guilt symbol by the bubbles a little number above the Level Up button (not shown in picture).  Each Tier has its own maximum and minimum percentages.

image

(Thanks KHinsider for such an awesome infographic.)

So how do you get better guilt?  Well, each tier generally represent its rarity.  Also, the lower the tier, the fewer stars you can get it in.  For instance, there is no such thing as a 1* Sephiroth, because he is a Tier 4.  Olette, however, can be 1* all the way through 6*.

Tier 1: Farmable - 1* to 6* - like Stitch and Olette above, these can be rewarded from completing missions.  Sometimes event medals that are easy to farm are also Tier 1.  If you’ve got some free time and 15 dollars, you can get all the Tier 1 guilts without too much hassle. 
Tier 2: Rare - 3* to 6* - only from medal pulls and events.  If you save your medals after each pull, these are completely doable for a F2P player.  All based on chance.
Tier 3: Epic - 5* to 6* - They go up to 100% which is amazing!  But getting an epic medal is very rare unless you do pulls during the Epic Medal Carnivals.  Even then, there are already tons of Epics and it’s hard to get the same one seven times.  
Tier 4+: Premium - 6* only - They are available exclusively through medal draws and Ranked events, and are consistently the best medals in the game.  Guilting them is a real show of ability and/or luck.

Here’s an example of what a Tier 4 Guilt looks like on a medal:

image

So now that you know what Guilt is, we should talk about how to get it!  Obviously you need 7 of each medal type, but leveling seven medals to 6* and combining them sounds like a pain, doesn’t it?  In order for the orbs to fill, the combined medals have to be the same star.  That is, a 5* Mickey when combined with a 6* Mickey won’t give you an orb, and you will have wasted a good Mickey!  Only a 6* can be combined with a 6*, 5* with 5*, and so on.  But there are limitations!

1*: 0 orbs
2*: 0 orbs
3*: 1 orb
4*: 2 orbs
5*: 3 orbs
6*: 5 orbs and Guilt

That means you can’t combine a 1* and a 1*, you have to combine a 3* and a 3*.  Here’s an example of a 5* with only three orbs:

image

The most economical route is to combine your 7 medals together at the lowest level, so you have fewer to level up!  Obviously if you are working with Tier 3 guilt medals, it becomes less complicated as they start at 5*, or even LESS complicated with Tier 4, since everything is 6* already.  Here’s a great infographic from KHinsider on the optimum way to guilt medals.

(LINK)

As you can see, you always need 7 of the medal you want.  Combining two medals together that already have an orb will actually add an additional orb (for the one holding the orb)!  In short, a 5* with one orb combined with a 5* with one orb equals a 5* with three orbs.  That’s because there are always four medals that you’re working with.

When guilting, the ideal is a 5* with three orbs and a 5* with two orbs.  Make them both into 6*s, then combine the two.  That is 4 (medal+3) and 3 (medal+2) = 7 (medal+5+guilt).  It sounds crazy, but once you do it once, it’ll make sense.

Things to remember:
~Only combine medals that are identical - same medal ID, same medal name, same amount of stars. (The exception to this is that the level of the medal doesn’t matter.)
~DO NOT DO THIS UNTIL MISSION 200 34!! Or you won’t get guilt.  You can only get the 5 orbs.
~If you are unsure, check the preview.  It will show blinking orbs where the orbs will be filled in.
~If you get a bad roll - say, 20% on a Tier 2, when you want a 50% - leveling up another 6* and combining it /again/ will re-roll your guilt.  Guilt cannot be re-rolled LOWER than what you had, so there’s no downside.  Of course, this means you will need 8 medals instead of 7.
~Magic Mirrors are given out during events.  They increase your Guilt on one medal by 1%.  So if you roll a 48% on a Tier 2, don’t worry.  You can get up to 50% with 2 Magic Mirrors.

That’s all!  Any questions, feel free to message me!

Edit: The coveted Fantasia Mickey B (Mickey & Brooms) was added to the game.  This adds one dot to any medal.  If there are five dots, it activates guilt.  If it has guilt, it rerolls guilt.  They are still very rare though so use them wisely!  Preferably on Tier 7+ medals.

High Score Challenge: Ice Cream Trio

image

Ends July 29th.

This is a great way to get Attack Boost 1 and 2 for your medals!  It’s also a great way to get Magic Mirrors if you’ve got any nice guilted cards, some Cids, and Chips and Dales.

This is simultaneously much easier and much harder than the Cloud HSC earlier this month.

The easy part: Invisibles from the other HSC did more damage based on health lost, which made killing those level 200 ones very hard.  However, the Morning Stars from this HSC build defense - much easier to deal with.  Take your time.  Chip away at them.  Bring Poison.  Bring a Minnie.  Don’t have a Minnie?  Bring a friend’s Minnie.  Don’t have friends?  Message me and join my party until the end of the event.  The hardest part here is keeping your special up.  If you’ve got an Attack Prize Plus ability, use it.  Use as many defense boosts as you can, preferably on Minnie.  If you can survive a turn without healing because of defense boost procs, that saves a ton of special bars.  

The hard part: Multipliers are MUCH harder to come by.  The point of High Score Challenges is to stack medals that have multipliers (listed below). Where the HSC event guaranteed 15% and 25% medals from the 10 medal draw, this one guarantees “any Org XIII member”, most of which are 7%.  Only 3/13 (no Xemnas) are 21%.  This means the high multiplier medals will go to those with a lot of money or a lot of luck. (I am neither of those types of people.) Luckily the necessary scores are lower for the rewards, too, so you don’t need 80% like last time.  I had 413k at 21%.  I have heard that 28% can get you 480k, which gets you every Scrooge in the event!  It should also put you in the rankings for the Attack Boost MAX skill.

**NOTE: The above have to be 6 star to get the bonus!!

The plan: Go straight for the level 200.  He’s at the start, in the first area you can enter.  Beat him.  If you can’t, but come close, do the reset trick (see below) and hope for better procs.  If you can’t, and don’t come close, do the reset trick and then quit or die, so you hold onto your special bars once you tune your keyblade. I used Three Wishes.  Olympia has three more bars of special, but I think the lack of multipliers for magic medals will be a huge drawback (if you stack Poison, however, this may not be important, since multipliers don’t factor in). Once you beat the level 200, you know you can beat the rest of the level.  Stay smart.  Grab chests when you need them.  Fight low level groups to refill Special.

(For those who don’t know - force closing the app before dying resets the encounter, so you can practice a little bit.  It’s a handy trick that I’m qualifying as not-cheating for my own sanity.)

Last but not least: if you can’t beat the level 200 no matter how hard you try, then skip it.  Try for the 180, which is late in the level.  Find the highest level you CAN beat.  Then work your way down.  Then finish out the level and be happy that you got a ton of stuff.  You don’t need to kill everything to get a good score. ^_^

Recommended:
~~7% medal (magic if you can)
~~7% medal (magic if you can)
~~STRONG magic medal (guilted preferred)
    (one of your 6 stars will probably need -10 cost)
~~Minnie (defense boost)
~~5 star w/ Poison (keyblade cost is a bitch)
~~Friend: Pray someone has 14% or higher

Optional:
Having trouble doing damage? Put these in your 5 star spot!
~~Stack Paralyze - it can save you some heals

Thanks for reading!  Like, reblog, tell your friends!  And if you’ve got any questions, feel free to Ask!

Edit: I really undervalued Poison.  You can pretty much just use tons of poison and Minnie.  Paralyze saved my butt too.

Also, there seems to be a pretty big range of randomization to the score.  With 35% I got 460k and 490k on two identical runs.  So if you’re close to one of those score thresholds, just try again!!
