the story is just the very first quest that was in the original demo. the other quests are the same as the demo. basically seofon's addition is different and that's really it. (the golem has nerfed attack and HP, but it's still aggressive so that's at least nice.)

I beat the base game a few weeks ago and didn't really bother with the post-game stuff, what do I need to do to get up to speed with the DLC? I only used the cap'n throughout and no one else, mostly because I couldn't decide on who I wanted.

Also I hope they turn down the visual effects a notch.
>>
>>741343482
Ragnarok will have have a setting to tone down the effects. Pretty sure that the demo is supposed to have that as well.
>>
>>741343482
No choice but to get your weapons from Proto-Bambam.
If you haven't unlocked other characters yet that's good because Proto can't drop weapons of characters you don't have. That means you can aim for specific characters by unlocking them then grinding their weapon.
After that it's basically sigils and weapon upgrades but who knows what's the best grind mission will be when the extension comes out.

specific game subtitle: relink (referencing the link between MC and Lyria, a major plot element, and how the two are separated as part of this games story)
expansion name: endless ragnarok (endless being a reference to the game design, a poke at the new mode, ragnarok being the known ancient term, doubling as referencing a similar level of danger in the new scenario, also being the name of Id's (relinks new big character) sword as another fun nod)

Wait, does this mean I need to grind all the way to the end? Damn, might not grab this in the end then. I played a fair bit after into the post-game, I remember I had maxed out character levels at least but there was way more weapon grinding and shit left, I got bored of it at some point, especially since I was not able to find a single match with real people. I don't think I'm up to however much solo grinding is left for me to do before I get to the new content.

I remember about the last thing I did was grind some mission to get whatever items I needed to unlock Tweyen (was that the name? the magic archer girl), then played her and upgraded her a bit before stopping. It felt like there was quite a long way to go before finishing the grind.
>>
>>741344987
the dlc is going to make the grind much easier with a roguelite mode. and according to a new interview, people will be able to borrow strong characters from other players

>>
>>741345069
is that the conflux mode? cool
>>
>>741344987
a lot of the QoL and stuff is available before the new missions, including the first version of the roguelike that seems to trivialize old material grinding, so it shouldnt be that hard to catch up.
plus people have been playing consistently since the ER announcement and ive never had trouble getting parties for stuff, not even counting the japanese gods who descend on random groups with their 100000 commendations and perfect builds to nuke bosses from orbit.
>>741344382
>any new datamines? quest lists, item lists, summons, new weapon slots, alternate costumes, etc?
dunno about datamines but Seofon has a new weapon in the demo that's his Stinger-type, the DLC trio didnt have these before so its possible, they've all been given full loadouts to fit into the extended game properly.
>>741344414
Hard to say, it's interesting looking at the new Primal Burst mechanic that can only be loaded up by using a Full Burst, it feels like a direct response to curb double 2-burst stunlocking. So they're aware of stuff players did and at least in this example decided to disincentivize it.
>>

If you aim for the in game trophies then it's something like 400 hours at least.

>any new datamines? quest lists, item lists, summons, new weapon slots, alternate costumes, etc?

I haven't heard of any datamines yet, but here's an 11min japanese video of gameplay.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k1olENN0_ZY
It shows gameplay of every new character except for bea and eustace weirdly enough. Bea is there as an AI, but eustace isn't there at all.

Might want to watch it quickly since I have no idea if it's supposed to be shown or not, so it might get taken off of youtube. (or it might just be the hands on demo mentioned in the interview i linked here: >>741345069
)

>Terminus weapon drops swapped to token drops you trade for the weapon you want
>Addressing the concern of Relinks endgame basically being two(three) fights: PBaha or Luci, this time there will actually be a lot to do at the very end
>less time struggling with getting specific sigils and combinations (not explained how) because they want you to focus on weapon, general build style, and team comps rather than the mass of the grind being simply getting all these items you need
>Master Levels also include a Master Traits system which lets you further tweaks part of a characters kit you want to build around. Three trees that vary up effects, three points in each, you can fill how you want and reallocate freely (eg three points in one tree, one point in each etc) with major gameplay changes in the later investments
>Gallanze and Maglielle chosen for fan feedback
>Bea and Eustace chosen for expectations and fans loving society wanting the full squad together
>Fediel and Fraux chosen specifically for not being in Versus already and getting to expand the world the secondary games show off
>No Zodiac picked because Relink doesnt lean into japanese stylings in its setting/content and it didnt feel fitting
>Bubs chosen over Belial because Bubs is a raw strength kind of character and his fight design reflects that, Lucillius is a big thinker type and they were worried Belials design would be too similar to his as Belial is also a thinker.
>ER bosses lean towards memorization, thinking and strategic play as opposed to a lot of Relink's reactionary fight design

I haven't watched this video yet, but my guess is there was an information embargo until the demo came out. All of these people seemed to have played ER at Summer Games Fest + the interview and are all coming out today. My bet is that more interviews will becoming out in a few hours.

I mean were you ever able to do them alone? If no then that's fine. If yes then you should probably derust with like Blackwyrm or something.

My friend dragged me into derusting and the very first mission we got was the Gallanza and Maglielle double. The fight or flight response was enough to immedieatly relearn everything instantly. But it also helps that I wrote my thoughts on how to pilot Katalina when the game was new so all I had to do was walk backwards from my own thoughts at the time.

Relinks story can be enjoyed standalone, it limits references to the setting to things directly relevant to it's own story and will explain those things to you even if you're an existing player who knows what a Primal Beast or an Astral already is
If you really care, read the captain's fate episodes for more context on the journey before Relink and their ultimate goals and motivations
if you really really care, read all the stuff you get for the encyclopedia thing, it goes quite in depth into topics brought up across the story if you feel like you want more context
if you really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really care, for real, granblue fantasy is free to play and available on steam

>>741347613
Inspect them and you'll understand.
Some have max levels of 15, 30, 45, and 60.
So having two level 15 sigils of something that has a max of 15 is wasted.
15 + 15 being 30 just in case you're severly retarded.
Attack Damage and Attack Damage Cap have sigil caps of like 60 or higher so you can put that shit practically.

>>741346917
It's literally Dragalia. You can try to solo but the dps check will time you out (and/or kill you) most if not all of the time in higher difficulties.
AI teammates are generally more reliable because you don't need to be partying with some retards who get gibbed at the easiest and most telegraphed attacks. Now, if you were playing GOOD players then that's good and satisfying, but most of them stop co-oping after the first successful no-death clear or if they're done grinding.

Random stuff I've noticed from the footage:
>summons are drops, supposedly over 100 of them
>the skills and equip bonuses on summons can be different even if the summon is the same
>azurite shards are a new material, they combine to make azurite splendor
>lvl 20 wrightstones can drop from quests
>new material to upgrade weapons that are specific to a certain weapon type like stunner, crit, etc
>almost 30k pwr level, ~200k hp, over 100% crit at master lvl 10
>stackable debuffs on bosses
>most master traits seem to be skill focus, character mechanic or support focus, and general damage focus
>guts and autorevive counts are listed next to buffs for everyone in the party
>can hit over 9999999 with full burst

I might be wrong about some stuff though, hard to tell if it's demo exclusive stuff.

The expansion is $30, you'll have to pay $70 if you bought the base game separately, if you were to buy the base game at it's current highest discount ($24) you could save $16, which is a pretty good deal.
The complete package is $60 (just $6 more if you bought the base game at it's highest discount, so it's not too big of a loss), but you can't even buy it right now to get an early start for the base game.

Grand Order, Avatar Belial, or Versusia are the most likely for the third big superboss since anything for the society or dragons would either be way too big to be a good fight like Diaspora or Orologia and anything less would be a mid tier boss not an end boss. Bubs is already ripped directly from Versus with his armor and he literally does round start Karma to suck you in his fight so Versusia could easily happen.

That's good. I'm honestly glad they've changed the end game to earning currency to spend to get the shit you want rather than constantly rolling on the boss gacha to get the 1 thing you want. I'd rather do something 100 times to earn enough to buy something than do something 100 times because it has a drop rate of 1/100. The less rng the better, the grind's never the problem it's always the rng.

Wow look at all of those unique choices. I'm sure everyone wont pick damage cap only sigils i mean over masteries

They're definitely changing the base game to be like that but they also implied that it's a general shift in design philosophy that they're moving away from rng and more towards farming for the expansion as well. The specifics on that are still vague though so I'm not sure.

Vanilla progression difficulties which vary if you play solo or online (you can easily be carried into a god build)

Playing solo would be:

>Main campaing
Trivial, is just there for the cheese anime story

Now post game quests.
>Hard, Very Hard, Extreme
Trivial and an awful slow padding

>Maniac
Real game starts and the sigils on your main character actually come to play.

>Proud
One shot city, if you are not playing online coop youll need to start paying attention to your AI companions and actually equip sigils on them.

They're going to make terminus weapon farming easier once the expansion is released (the quest drop tokens that you can trade for the weapons directly instead of dropping a random weapon for a character that you don;t use).
Technically you don't even need to get a terminus weapon since the expansion isn't balanced around needing to do the base game's post game grind.
>>
>>741359732
There's one or two unique bosses after Proto-Bahamut and a bunch of fight gauntlets

>>741360227

>Should I even bother?
The way Terminus are abtained is getting changed with the update

>What's even after proto?
6 or so fights harder than it which drop the most meta sigils in the game.

Were are so close to the expansion, id say wait .
>>
>No mention of increased terminus drop rate
Might as well farm out the last 2 I need. Considering all the ones I don't need are already obtained. Though I assume everyones party will change.
>>
>>741358140
Same. I really couldn't find any other character as comfy to play as danchou. Although Vane is the closest to that goal.
>>
Aside from the new systems are we seeing any balance changes for each character?
>>
>>741360671
I feel like I remember hearing that they're rebalancing them but I can't remember if that was directly or if it'll just be indirect balance adjustments with the damage cap rework. Hopefully Ferry won't suck anymore.
>>
>>741360824
They want more supportive styles to be a thing so that will probably help Rosetta and Ferry a good amount
>>
>>741350675
No. It's an unimportant side episode completely disconnected from the main game's plot. It features a glossary and some characterization but basically assumes you already know who these people are and the cast has no development whatsoever.
>>
>>741350626
How do these tokens work? Do they have the same drop chance as the weapons? Do you require multiple per weapon? You could technically get lucky and get the weapons you wanted quickly so this might be a potentially worse solution.
>>
>>741362235
I would just assume it average out around hte same probability of getting any weapon but instead of hoping it's the one you want you can just exchange them for the one you want. If they want to reduce the rng there's no way it's going to be a worse solution anon.
>>
Expansion is releasing next month right?
>>
>>741362235
It's just going to be the same 20% droprate as a weapon but you trade one of them for the weapon. It won't do anything to the grind unless you are just looking for one characters weapon
>>
>>741362759
It'll just let anyone catching up speed it up the grind since they can take the weapons for their actual party first instead of their main character's weapon being the 15th drop

Ehhh, no. I know jack shit about Granblue outside of bits and pieces I learned from playing Versus, and I saw the credits of Relink a few days ago. The plot is just an excuse for the action RPG to happen. The best compliment I can give it is that prior to credits there's very little padding in it, and afterwards is when the MonHun-style repeated quest structure and "real game" starts.
Funniest shit was when the Avia generals just show up later to assist the heroes in defeating Lilith, they don't even give the flimsiest reason on-screen like "yeah we saw the error of our zealous ways and Lilith's madness", they just do it and everyone accepts it.
>>
>>741363253
Even events in the original game that change the story don't matter in the end. For example most of the main cast from Code Geass canonically lives in the GBF world now, because during their collab event Lelouche basically went "fuck going back to that world I'm staying safe here with my sister" and nuked the portal home so yeah.
>>
Granblue's story is a gigantic, massive pile of shit with a handful of decent things embedded in it here and there. Cygames' writers are really, profoundly, not good. Here to put it in perspective: Gran and Lyria killed GOD at the end of the old main story quest, but the story is now continuing in to a new main story quest about the Sky expanding thanks to the Crimson Horizon being erased.

It's playable on solo. The multiplayer experience as usual is completely dependent on the skill level of who you get matches with because you'll either get people who speed up the fight like crazy because of the combined high damage output or you will go into the Lucilius fight and tank the floor from frame 1

They're adding Transcendence so all weapons can get upgraded to a point of relevance, and adding the missing weapons to Siete, Sandy, Song
There's a bunch of chinese footage from SGF floating around on bilibili, the only weapon I've seen is a shot of Percival's Executioner weapon - the main weakness exploiter sigil goes up to a higher level, instead of Break Assassin it has Nimble Onslaught, it gets a few levels of Cascade, and it has a unique weakpoint attack damage cap sigil that increases your damage cap by a certain amount when hitting a weakpoint or back attack, maxing out at an increase of +310% but going away if you spend a minute without hitting a weakpoint/back attack. No indication it doesn't stack with regular damage cap sigils, either.
The way you upgrade them is that bosses drop Ragnite (Stinger) or Ragnite (Stunner) or whatever you use as a material to transcend that category of weapon, presumably alongside a whole host of other mats.

My personal theory is that sigils will basically be character sigils and the current "generically good" stuff that's like build tax necessities, and then they're moving the majority of the customization and build preference type stuff into what weapon you prefer the unique gimmick of, and how you do the new Mastery Level stuff, which we know has loadouts but haven't seen 90% of the meat of.

tl;dr things that are already obsolete are being made dragged up in power creep and made less obsolete, at least in theory

You basically just keep going through quests until you get to Proud. Keep your and your AI party's weapon levels up to date. You'll want to start looking for damage caps around mid-late Maniac, run Tyranny and Stamina on everybody, Improved Dodge, Potion Hoarder and Nimble Onslaught are really really good. It's not worth upgrading sigils until very late when you can get Azurite Splendours to skip the upgrade mats for it.
Don't use a weapon that isn't Stinger or Terminus(later on), it's never worth it.
>>741367641
I have an image saying "ER or upgrade kit will include usable items in Granblue Fantasy, details to come later" but can't actually find a source.
It drives a shitton of sales for them though so they'd be insane not to.

When built and played properly, he does above averange damage, well sitted on S+ and i mean this outside of Link Time, he becomes EX tier then but as players become mlre powerful enemies blowup before even getting the opportunity.
Problem lies on the real damage dealers of the game, Charlotta and Sandalphon, who are on a tier of their own and can mash their heads in against a boss, deal disgusting amounts of damage in safe way and quickly chase the boss around the arena to keep a constant DPS.

Both are great stunners, while Sieg brings party utility, Ghanda is raw unmatched damage.
A "More is Less" Ghanda can deal a lot of damage in one low commitment rotation

>Dodging straight into finisher
800k
>instant no change Rage Fist lvl7
2.500k

1.000k

Roughly over 4m damage which is the average, if the enemy stays still he can easily push this to 6m.

Unirocally, i relate io to Ghanda, more than to Sieg

should i buy and play the base game now or would it be better to wait for the dlc to release before starting from scratch?
>>
>>741374453
The DLC update is gonna rework a few things but it's mostly super-lategame shit like how the damage cap works and one annoying to farm mission. You could start now and it'll probably be fine.
>>
>>741374453
You could get it now and finish the story at least and then get to end game when they add all the changes. At least catch up you enough that you will be able to jump into the expansion quicker.
>>
>>741374453
Are you going to finish it in 2 weeks
>>
>>741372667
Yeah, the website has details for the character unlocks. Beatrix and Eustace are regular character card unlocks, Maglielle (the potato) and Gallanza are shortly after the main story but a good while before you finish the epilogue and thus a fair shot before you get to the end of what's currently there and ER content, although you'll be able to choose to make it a lot shorter than it is now with the catchup stuff they're adding.

>>741371347
>>741374453
On the one hand they're making it faster and easier to catch up when it comes out, and it'll be a little cheaper to just get ER rather than buying the game and upgrade, if you care about that.
On the other, if it were me I'd like the chance to get caught up at my own pace in time to be ready for the new stuff.
On the other other hand, if you play the game at a reasonable pace it might take you like 60-70 hours to get to the current endgame without being carried, so do you have enough time to get that much gaming in over the next three weeks? Do you think you'll want to?

You just have to think about it for yourself, really.

My wishlist is for them to bring back the cool interaction Zeta's pogo had with her buff skill back in 1.0 vanilla relink. It got patched out due to being a glitch, but it wasnt broken and made her more fun to play.
They won't, but hopefully one of her Mastery traits gives her something similar.
>>
>>741383994

Make her counter skill airbone too
Make her Rain of Arrows chargeable for an extra lasting time
Give more control to the pogo movement, mid air dodge for lateral strafe and delayed pogo to move to the other side are not reliable.

Don't worry about it.
The story is not long, can be completed in a day and you can do it in a few hours if you skip all the dialogue, which in most cases I suggest as its VN tier crap. Watch custscenes, skip bullshit dialogue.
The story is also a tutorial to the mechanics of the game.
Its post story that the game opens up and if you wait for release to do it you will be able to play all the missions with the new nintendo players. If you do it now, nobody will be doing any of the missions at all, you will have to do it all solo.

>rng makes me seethe
Yeah.
I am thinking about shit like excavalion hearts for weapon uncaps. That shit is super low RNG drop and the AI cant do the mission and it takes forever.
I use my dhalia badges for that shit, but now conflux will drop shit like that, as well as I can just play different characters in conflux for fun.

they clearly are not getting rid of RNG though. I think they are increasing drop rates for proud stuff, like items for weapon uncaps or sigil upgrades but they already shown in gameplay that has been released today that rng sigils and the new summon stuff drop from ER quests.
I think what they will be doing is having ER have all this RNG shit so we are all farming ER quests endlessly hence the name of the DLC.

Question: does this game has Yaia?
>>
>>741357496
>>741357716
It is obvious from the interviews that they are removing the RNG from sigil sythesis, so you will only need to do a quest twice to have whatever sigil you want. Well some 2nd traits will still be RNG, provoke for example.

Also to add, I dont think anyone has mentioned it but over masteries are gone, they been superceeded by the new mastery system.
see here >>741394485
So shit like the normal and skill dam cap up is gone in favour of a raw damage cap up for everyone, but those 50 levels are some serious MSP,
Like from what they have shown going from lvl 2 to 3 is 3k MSP
Then in that image you can see 10 to 11 is 7500 MSP.
It will be in the 20-30 MSP when we hit the lvl 40-50s
MEGA grind.
Still its nice that the RNG of overmasteries are gone and we can actually work towards the character progression now.
Will be nice that MSP no longer goes to waste.
I have shit loads of ambrosias too and I bet day one I wont even have enough to get 1 character to 5o mastery.
>>
>>741358189
>garbage like Io and Rackam.

Rackham is a top tier bro
>>
>>741395153
Yeah I'm happy with that. Just farm a metric fuck ton of resources to dump into my favourite characters with them gradually getting stronger and stronger with every incremental upgrade.
>>
>>741394725
>excavalion
Knowing that I probably won't have to touch that dogshit fight ever again is a huge plus. Farming that guy and dealing with RNG hell while building my Ascension weapon was a low point of my initial playthrough.
>>
>>741395223
Its like that now of course, but RNG.
Overmasteries is a complete fucking joke and without save scumming i doubt i would ever have gotten good rolls on any character.
Even with that I only have 1 god roll with the best traits and all 20% for that character, Eugen.

I do think that ER is meant to be a literal endless grind though.
Game already is an endless grind but i think with ER we are gonna be grinding pretty much every quest.

They have not even mentioned what the difference between chaos, + and ++ is yet.
There might actually be 3 tiers of each of these quests.

>>741395343
Same, did ascension weapons for all chars and this was the real challenge only because of shit RNG.
I have had excavalion in a quick quest before and players just leave lol.
I actually like the battle, but with AI they just cant d the mechanics and it take forever.
When I got to the last few characters and had no more hearts I just used all my dhalia badges and even got to a point of just doing QQ instead of that mission. least you know do 15 QQ and you can get a heart. In most cases you can do 3 quests quicker than doing excavilion.
>>
>>741360382
You need 4 damage cap V+ sigils.
You will need to awaken your ascension weapon to actually beat bhamut. If you are playing offline you need to do that for all 4 characters.
Then you need to farm bhamut for terminus, awaken that and then you can progress past bhamut to the end game missions.
Of course you also need builds on your characters. You can find exactly where each sigil drops and if you dont get the traits you want you can save scum in sigil synthesis.

So. This is the end game grind:
Farm V+ sigils for your build. Use dam cap Vs until V+s drop from bhamut.
Use save scum to get the right traits on sigils.
Level the sigils up to 15. (farming splendors or using dhalia badges for splendors is optional. You can also MTX some)
Save scum transmarvel to get war path and awakened sigils for your character.
Fully uncap every weapon
Get every MSP node
Over mastery lvl 3. Save scum for good traits (damage cap and crit)
Awaken ascension weapon.
Farm bhamut for terminus
Awaken terminus weapon.
Do gauntlets for echo sigils
Fuck and farm lucillius for materials
Buy alpha/beta/gamma sigils
Farm lucillius to level them up.
Then you have the option to do zero or forever grind behemoth for low drop rate supV+and WE+

>>
>>741365643
The way this sounds is like they are gonna make the terminus unique sigil a sigil and without the health penalty.
They might even just fuck it and give us a 1 sigil that has damage cap instead of the mandatory 4, but that will then ruin lucillius sigils.

They have said they seen that there were optimal moves and it lacked build varety and expression and they want to get rid of that. So hopefully the weapons are no longer a meta and are part of that expression.

nta but from what i can tell you can only use 2 of them. So look at kats of the left, she will "have to" use those 2. the other one being a healer skill.
That is assuming we can have 2.
My point is there is gonna be a meta and it wont really be as diverse. in that situation no matter what you do you are gimping yourself by not using the dam cap up skills.
Saying that though, you dont have to play meta. If we can only have 1 skill active at a time that means we are essentially specializing and you could play a tank or healer role instead of unga bunga DPS.
I play captain as a health tank rather than meta damage, Use ascension over terminus. Though i cant do the end game stuff with him.
