DV#2: Scores and Team Comps
Post Body

Edit: Wow! I just noticed I got gold. Thank you, kind stranger!

Sorry in advance for the long post but I'd like to share my strategies and thoughts for our 2nd DV.

My thoughts:

  • RNG and non-elemental magic damage: I tried 3-5 many times to get Tetra to only use physical attacks so my Pencil can just evade them but nope, I kept getting gale slashed 7 out of 8 times in 2 turns. Although I got a bit lucky at my last try, gale slash was only used twice in 2 turns. Don't you just love RNG?
  • Got 1 CPN randomly during the esper units banners. I immediately UoC'd his prism when DV#2 started. Him and eRegina, along with Xon obviously, really helped a lot.
  • I got really tempted to pull for Vanille for that juicy 80% breaks, AOE earth imbue and 120% earth imperil that can be used on turn 1. But I decided against it because I don't want to spend money.
  • I need more mages for different elements. XWQL is no longer enough.
  • As always, my main goal for DV is to finish in top 500. I think my final score is more than enough. And I'm expecting cheaters to be at least DQ'd after this. Hopefully, Gumi will take more action against them.
  • Overall, I'm still enjoying DV despite some bad RNGs. It's far fetched but I hope Gumi change how AOE damage skills.

My strategies:
