Now that I have QTPi, how many hours of Tiger Tiger grinding will it take before Poppi becomes good?
Juan Wilson
So far I haven't been paying attention to stats and have assigned Blades to characters matching the recommendation based purely on luck.
To recap: >So I got both Praxis and Theory. Praxis is already assigned to Zeke. Should I have Theory resonate with Morag instead? There isn't some sort of duo special that activates when both of them are assigned to the same Driver?
Daniel Peterson
Depends. If you just want to make her decent, then only like 2-3 hours. If you're going for the fully optimized autism route then it's completely RNG. It took me 15 hours to get lucky enough to get the master mods
Luke White
How are the non-blade entries?
Brody Stewart
Yes, put Theory on Morag. Theory is one of the best evasion tanks with her evade spike passive, and morag makes the best use of that. No, there isn't. It's a shame, too. We could have gotten more pair attacks.
Tora should be doing the breaking. His break art hits three times, each with a chance to break. For smash farming, you should definitely be playing as Tora, with rex having Mythra and Roc engaged for topple and smash.
Wyatt Carter
So far I haven't been paying attention to stats and have assigned Blades to characters matching the recommendation based purely on luck.
For example, I gave Morag Perun, Aegaeon, Adenine, Nim, and Ursula (when Nim and Ursula are equipped, along with Nia in the party with Boreas and Kora, they become like this broken tank healer mix). Meanwhile Zeke has Vale, Floren, Finch, Dagas and Praxis. And yeah, I haven't done Overdrives yet on the Rare Blades Rex has, so my party can be unbalanced. It's more to do with Field Skills though.
Pic not related but we need more PoppiQT
Sebastian Campbell
where, in temperantia?
oh, i was using rex morag and nia because i couldnt be fucked to play tiger tiger
Isaiah Diaz
Even without any Tiger! Tiger! you should still be using poppi qtpi for this. That break is simply the best in the game.
William Cox
Has anyone tried getting the ardun in gormott to lvl 99 asap? I'm thinking it would be one of the earliest/safest way to farm legendaries. Would it be better to wait until chapter 5 to get gold chips and stuff and then smash the ardun rather than getting rares at the Mor Ardain salvage spot?
James Young
Don't bother smash farming without gold chips. All I'm gonna say.
Charles Torres
Ardun is the best no point in farming crabs its shit. Alternatively you can farm the vampire blade in uruyra then later farm cloud ken.
Jordan Rivera
Where are the wood chips in Gormott?
Colton Adams
but then how do I level up morag
Aaron Gray
All your characters get levels, even benched
Colton Jackson
[Spoiler]___ up your ass[/spoiler]
Noah Jenkins
>>>/wherever you came from/
Bentley Richardson
use the scope items that drops from bats in gormott, makes breaking bosses ez pez
Austin Butler
Either Temperantia or Gormott, but Gormott only has 1, and you have to make sure you don't fight the unique monster in Temperantia.
I think most people should just skip out on Master mods. They're only marginally better than V mods.
Daniel Carter
if I want to go the 2-3 hour route, what do i need to get/buy for her
Nathan Jenkins
So how do I optimize my new Poppi QTPI to be the ultimate superboss killer?
Jackson Cook
can i get a grats please lads i just killed ken
Zachary Cook
Just beat Ophion. He's a lot easier to kill once I figured out how to stop my allies from jumping to their deaths
Gabriel Flores
Kill something other than the easiest superboss in the game and they you can get a grats
Gabriel Brown
How?
Luke Reed
...
Jeremiah Thomas
If you fight him right here, all of your attacks can reach him and there's no ledge to fall off
Nolan Butler
sorry mate forgot this was some kind of elitist club
Connor Perez
the level 96 enemies in Temperantia aren't that bad. fight was surprisingly easy
Grayson Walker
Cheers m8, may i ask who you use as a tank if she's full damage?
Landon Hernandez
You have to kill the level 104 boss to post in here
Brandon Collins
You won't need one, she'll be doing way too much damage to draw the aggro away from her.
Tyler Morales
Does that mean I'll need a dedicated healer to keep her alive, or should I be fine with blade nia?
Jordan Young
The critical restore mod will keep you alive
Aaron Edwards
blade nia is a dedicated healer
Asher Wood
Ideally she'll spend most of her time in either QTPi mode, which means she'll be keeping herself alive with critheals, or in Alpha mode, where she'll be pretty unkillable as long as she has a Dilation chip. Of course to maximize her usefulness you should be playing as her, but that's your business.
Gabriel Wright
>Dagas gets 3 core slots if you complete his quest
Ryder Walker
I already have a fire attacker and her name is Pyra
Austin Williams
>Zenobia still shits all over him
Still, it's nice to see a decent rare Fire Blade. It's just a shame one of them has a near-pointless role and the other is hopelessly outclassed.
Brayden Rivera
I use him mainly because his flames look cool you can't beat Zenobia but i do like Dagas more. I'll pull Zenobia out if I really need her
I wish this happened to the other useless blades. Electra, and Godfrey can't even complete their quest until Tantal.
Caleb Perez
So is Ardun or Ken the best legendarycore farm?
Joshua James
...
Ethan Gonzalez
Tyrannotitan Korodle is the best one, imo
Jack Fisher
Can't break him for shit. Do I need an accessory?
Caleb Peterson
...
Jonathan Bell
ultra rare Beta Scope on Tora helps a lot. and you need a common blade with Treasure sensor in the active party, the more the better, but that's for every farm monster
Elijah Roberts
Ken is the best. Gives legendary on almost every smash (with enough treasure sensor), and easy to break. Won't kill you either. Arduran is annoying to walk around, with Ken you can just stand under him.
Dominic Rivera
Aw. Japan is really hoping on the harem train. Also, this artist put in their cores. Which also means this image is a spoiler
Ayden Hernandez
You retarded nigger. Save the original next time.
Xavier Powell
>Just remembered that Bana was evil in the first game too
I almost forgot about this quest. Even across universes, he's a greedy little shit
Ian Roberts
It's missing Morag for the harem. Pandoria is for Zeke so she doesn't count.
Noah Cruz
>ophion can't be broken/smashed
how am I supposed to beat him?
Thomas Rodriguez
Sadly Morag is barely a character in this game, she gets zero development. We see her have some personal moments but nothing really suggests that she changes as a character at all.
Just keep putting orbs on him until he uses his OHKO. Then chain attack through it.
Aaron Murphy
Ophion doesn't do any driver combos nor does he inflich any debuffs to you. He's really one of the easier superbosses to beat. All you have to do is activate a level 4 combo if he does anything other than plasma beam or barrier
Brody Young
Chain attacks. Just use reflect immunity and he's dead
Mason Carter
Even with zenobia and a decent qtpi, I had to go 6 orbs. 4 orbs did about 9.6 million damage and it still had about 5% health
Landon Stewart
I didn't even do a chain attack until he had very little health . I just tanked through his plasma beams and used the invincibility during the level 4 combos to avoid all of his attacks
Jaxson Perez
took your guys advice and used tora beat him on my first try i havent upgraded his poppis at fucking all and yet it was so much easier than with morag wtf
Jordan Anderson
Morag was an already well rounded character like Zeke. She was prominent the since her first appearance and even though she looks though on the inside she has her fears and feels inferior to the other party members relationship with their Blades
Jayden Fisher
it just varies by superboss. Some are easier with tora, some are easier with Agility Morag.
Christian Barnes
ok good, because I really like morag and want her to be my primary tank
Gavin Williams
why give me two based healers like adenine and boreas and make them both wind types? what a waste
Cameron Parker
What's the point of playing after completing the main quest?
Lincoln Perry
I know, it's just sad that she doesn't have an arc. Same as Zeke. When we meet them they've already gone through their various trials and grown as a result. It's alright for Zeke since we go to Tantal and the juxtaposition between him and his father emphasizes how different he is, but we don't really get this for Morag. She's just kind of there. I thought they were gonna play up the angle of her being a good soldier but eventually having to choose to break the rules to do what's right but that doesn't happen. Nothing happens, really. A lot of the stuff with Niall and Mor Ardain feels like wasted potential.
Evan Morris
what's the point of even playing video games?
Noah Campbell
what's the point of living?
Anthony Fisher
Adenine is better as a damage dealer anyway.
You most likely have stuff to do, so accomplishing that is the "point". Sidequests, superbosses, etc.
Jacob Torres
Nah I meant is there like an extra dungeon? I love extra dungeons and shit.
Isaac Smith
Well, maybe some of the coming quests will do something to flesh her out a bit. If the new story stuff is set not too far in the past, maybe we will see her when she was young.
Christian Harris
No extra dungeon, just extra bosses.
Aiden James
Shit. Did they say what was coming up in the new update?
Colton Cox
Is the boss you fight at the end of Zenobia's quest worth the hype? Is it like a level 150 supermegaboss?
Nicholas Thomas
>want to fight King Ken >the weather has to change
Luke Miller
Nope, no specifics. We're getting new quests but who knows what that entails. And we don't know what NG+ will be like or when exactly we're getting it, either.
Nah it's just a level 50-something monster that you fight three times. What makes it threatening in-universe is that it regenerates when killed, but in terms of gameplay it just means shitting all over the same monster three times.
Logan Barnes
Fast travel to another titan and back a few times to change weather. After killing him one time you don't need the weather anymore.
