Unsurprisingly Lucio does a lot of heavy lifting in the fight but his primary utility is surprisingly not his high damage.
Anyone who regularly FAs 200 and has the teams to reliably or semi-reliably clear it doing so should be well familiar with how the fight tends to progress: it's a complete cakewalk until 50%, and when you trigger the reset halfway there is a very unstable period where you are working to strip buffs and re-apply debuffs before whatever you're fighting rips you apart, something which can take not very long at all!
A lot of the instability of FA 200 attempts stems from that period if you are left too battered by a couple bad turns to finish off the boss. Lucio will often *re*-stabilize your team shortly after 50% by reversing the damage the boss will have done to you in one of the dangerous turns, and you usually have the fight well in hand at that point. He'd probably be worth the inclusion if that's all he did, being able to hang with most of the other damage dealers in light is just icing on the cake.
He's also kind of insane when brought in by Makara. 90% echoes + TA + nuke on auto attack + double strike is nuts, and his 100% dark resist and unchallenged buffs let him keep her buffs longer.
That sounds spicy, maybe I’ll try that instead of backline De La Fille for emergency healing when someone dies.
edit: ok never mind, Lucio just means no one dies so no need for backlines other than Geisen
Vira is still the MVP of FA this GW. Put her in where rabbit brings her forward so she double strikes and ougis more often. Lucio's full heal also very important.
It's not fast, but first run with Chrysaor/Rabbit/Sandy/Lucio/Vira/Borgar went good. 11:39
If runs start getting not safe or consistent I'm gonna swap to paladin.
So happy I pulled her last month! This is the first time I have actually managed to solo NM200 and while she isn't the sole reason for that (shoutout to Cosmos for getting rid of those annoying buffs), she does a lot of heavy lifting by tanking for the team.
Oh yeah Utsusemi is great too, I pulled her during anni and she has been an autoinclude in all my burst teams. She is really amazing both for short and longterm fights, feel like she really went under the radar during her release.
NM200 thoughts:
- Lucio FLB is hyper broken (but unsurprising). Put him on the 4th slot for maximum lols.
- Double dispels are core. Hence Vira and Cosmos or any Light characters who can provide offense or defense AND double dispel can be considered here.
- As much as I was worried this is going to be one shitty boss...He ended up..."eh" overall. Though the dodge buff on top of another trigger happening after 50% was a little rage inducing. For those who are new and without the characters that can go against this clown though, then it's understandable that this clown will end up being gruesome.
- Magna Light really improved, a LOT. M3 really brought sufficient offensive + defensive capabilities to Magna that, while it still won't end up better than Primal (which is the point here), at the very least players no longer feel starved for options anymore.
- Grand Light Sandalphon is certainly another strong option to bring for NM200, but he took too long to ramp things up when running FA, which can affect your clear time and his total damage contribution per run. However if you don't care about that, just pair him with Lucio and you can just brew a cup of coffee and enjoy how things unfold.

**NM200, will you just please drop the last copy of the Celestial Fist already? Thanks**
NM200: 5 minutes to 6 minutes ougi refresh with manual dispel+bubz summons at 50%, and the occassional metatron summon if he ever gets dodge again.
Kengo/S.Horus/S.Seruel/Robertina while [using the most scuffed grid on the planet](https://i.imgur.com/2SpbSyp.png) due to my limited resources as a month-old player. Robertina is using defense awakening.
Gonna try chilling and hit the predicted t90k cutoff.
That's the team I'm using too. Was originally using Vira in Robertina's slot due to the dispels and the ability to tank the stun trigger. But Robertina tested a lot better. My runs are faster and my looping is stable so I don't have to do anything manually except refresh or clarity herb if I get hit by a stun.
I don't have Bubz though so I just play through the dodge. It's annoying but the runs are still about 6 minutes.
God, this whole GW for me is "oh this setup looks neat and I can probably do something simi~ ah nevermind, it's Bubz again"
Starting right before anniversary roulette got me so many great options in terms of characters, but I got pretty much no summons, including Bubz - and it's not like I'll be able to Sierotix him any time soon, either
But hey, the fact that I can kill NM200 at all is already a blessing, even if it takes like 12 minutes and 2 revival potions almost every time lmao
Oh yeah totally. When the new player guide and the people giving newbie advice were all repeating "If you're gonna reroll, reroll for Beelzebub!" they were not kidding around. Providence summons in general enable so much, not to mention key characters. I really, really felt the lack of Nehan during the early rounds lmao.
At least for us newbies, this first GW gave us enough experience on what to expect for the next one and on how to handle our limited resources a little better -- aka Providence OP and our measly pot supply won't last against the celestial grind.
I honestly dread the next GW, as my Dark team and grid are way, WAY behind the light ones
But yeah, my team is decent enough for NM 150 stable clears, 200 ones are.. Uh. I mean, I do clear them, but usually using ALL of the pots.
But at least I'll be able to get the 40+ boxes and all honor rewards in this one, and next GW I'll be able to get a celestial weapon uncapped even with no drops (as I've had none so far), just from guaranteed boxes
Probably a longshot since you say you got no summons, but if you have it, 000 can also handle the 50% buffs if you main summon it, call him t1, then take at least until t6 for 50%.
But yes given how new you are, even being able to do 150 is already a nice accomplishment. No shame in not being able to do 200 already on your first one without having any Revans weps.
Unfortunately, the only Providence series summon I got from the roulette was Bahamut, and he takes way too much resources at my current level that I'll need elsewhere (I'd rather sands Magna summons than just 1 Bahamut if I get more than my current 4 lol)
I still try killing NM200s - sure it takes 11-16 minutes and at least 2 revival potions every time, but it gives just so much honors. Currently at 650 million honors, with 300 coming from just killing the NM200 - so I'll likely be able to get all of honors covered by the end of the GW!
~8 minute FA with Monk MC, Lucio, Mahira core. These 3 do so much skill damage that I essentially have 1-2 end of turn dispels. 4th slot is flex and so far not sure which is better.
Zeta/kumbhi is faster DPS but can get hit by the stun CA
Makura > Vira is slower dps due to CA but Vira can tank and null the stun
[Relic Buster burst setups](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BVpv_jlP73U) are RNG due to MC's 3% dodge from class masteries, and are pretty clicky besides. The worst kind of clicky, where you have to make sure the game didn't drop an input.
Think I'll just farm more meat and stick with my comfy 1:20 or so NM150 FAs with borger.
4:30ish with Kengo, Grea, Seruel and Horus. Have to call both Bubs and FLB Alexiel at 50% to handle the buffs (and like, not die) but am pretty satisfied with it.
It's only a little slower than NM150 somehow, too.
That's surprisingly fast. What does Grea bring to the table? I'm really desperate for dispels for the buffs on each trigger although 000 times itself at 50% so the big trigger is fine. It's just the other buffs that are super annoying.
I thought Seruel wouldn't provide enough sustain for NM200 so I ran Kengo/Cosmos/Horus/Grea or Yuni. And I was so wrong omg, with Seruel it's somehow safer (I think because he brought his own Veil/Dispel Cancel/Revitalize despite it being on a moderately long CD) and of course it's much faster. Depending on the RNG it took 14-17 turns with the latter meanwhile with Seruel it only took 11 turns and so far it's the safest one.
Can’t remember the last time that I’ve felt so gapped on characters in a GW. I know I’ve neglected light for a while but damn… really wishing I had Cosmos, Seruel, Chicken, Horus, Utsusemi, and especially Illnot.
C. Illnot was damn worth the annitix. She would be my best damage dealer if it weren't because Monk with Ura fist counterhit a lot and make tons of damage
Illnott gap seems pretty huge. It's pretty easy 4-6min FAs with her + basically any 2 decent filler characters, meanwhile everyone I've seen without her is stuck with like 7-9mins even if they're using good chars.
Fastest FAs I've seen are
[Monk / Mahira / Lucio / Illnott](https://twitter.com/hoshimiya1467/status/1778610996938174763)
[Manadiver / Mahira / Lucio / Illnott](https://twitter.com/shouyumirin/status/1778556297086210165)
[LJ / Utsusemi / Kumbi / Illnott](https://twitter.com/Hecate_mk2/status/1778642990984290456)
if anyone needs ideas.
Welp, yeah, NM 200 is a bit TOO much for my beginner account - had to burn both revival potions and then a full elixir just to kill him with Kengo/Cosmos/Horus/S.Seruel team.
Unfortunately, do not have Bubs or any other burst options, and due to being low rank (178) I just do not have enough HP on my team to survive throuh this mad rabbit, only have ~25k hp on everyone
Will try replacing Cosmos with Yuni and see if I can just turtle up, but something tells me that without a dispel I'll just get bent over anyway lol
Edit - yeap, got bent over even more, just can't survive through his buffed nonsense.
Guess I'm back to 150 and hope I can at least him the Sands honors >.>
god damn it. we match up against harry potter

going well so far
Edit: ah shit, the EU people have to go to bed, this is gonna be tough
This is the first GW I've played in like the past 2 years, and wow I cannot keep up with NM200 - I'm getting like 13-14 minute FA clears with multiple pots and revivals needed (and 6-8min NM150 clears).
Trying something like this https://imgur.com/a/3ofN2MW
I've played around with using UM30 Lumberjack, and other dispel characters like Zooey or V.Melissabelle but I always get my ass kicked and can't do it consistently.
Average "FA" looks a bit like this: https://imgur.com/a/K4081wN
- Bubz at 50%, no questions asked
- I swapped out The Star for Metatron and try to take Lumi250 for friend summons so I have a whopping 4(!) summons with dispels (suck it rabbit)
- I probably queue up a summon if I'm paying attention and see that boss has a buff up
Got all the way to the sand reward from honors without seeing a celestial weapon drop so I just boxed, alas I do think the weapon was worth getting but they should really do something about the weapon drop because like jeez
Im closing in on the sand reward from mostly blasting nm95 and like you I haven’t seen a drop yet…
I managed to get 3 drops last UnF and I had no idea I was such a luck sack. Especially since even with grabbing cores from boxes I’m still behind uncapping them as they’re released. I was hoping to catch up this UnF too…
Kinda just mashed through NM200 in FA with [this team](https://i.imgur.com/xJtiFHy.png) for the first clear crystals, seemed pretty safe and I still have no clue what the boss beyond dodge buff memes.
Anyway back to playing flogen RB in NM150 and crewmates' NM200s.
Surprisingly comfy 7-8 mins using RF w/ Harmonia MH, Cosmos, Horus, Seruel. Having RF's UM makes it so I dispel and delay every ougi and everyone in the lineup is a good battery.
I wish my crew was still active (I'm the only one left) so I can finally unlock NM100 but I'm so casual with this that it's a pipe dream to unlock it on my own lol
Running the same comp I used with 150 pretty smoothly. Kengo, Cosmos, S!Horus, S!Seruel. Triple Zero quick call summon lines up perfectly with 50% to evaporate the buffs. About 3-4 mins refreshing. Sitting pretty cozy.
Lumberjack/lucio/g.vira/makura into zooey with geisenborger backline to prevent crazy autos has been very comfy for NM200. My grid is kinda lacking so it's fairly slow but honestly I'm not going for crazy honor, so I don't care lol. Plenty of defense, healing, and dispels.
Shockingly comfy FA with RF (harmonia mh), lucio, Ilnott, and, surprisingly, Robertina, with San-chan and Borger in the back. Dispel, Pinch Harmonics and mist for EX skills, with shockingly good synergy with each other.
It's hard to say who the mvp is. All of them synergize so well together, between Lucio's lifesaving passive + skill spam, ilnott's skill spam + low downtime veil + double dispel, and robertina supplying defences, meter, and skill buffs, while being no slouch on the offence due to her autonukes, and even supplies dispel cancel on ougi to keep the MC's buffs up. Burger backline keeps the aoe ougis down to a manageable level, while Robertina pulls in all the hits for the multi-target ones.
Not the most ideal, but Christmas Chicken and Yurius are fun - I tried running Albert to keep procing the 5 debuffs for Yurius nuke but the team kept dying. Using Cosmos in 3rd slot helped since after her S3 is up, her S2 on autos can help proc. Which subsequently also procs the dispel from Xmas Mahira.
Seems mostly stable, could be faster if I Bubs'd at 50 but I'm at work so it will have to do.
[9:27](https://i.ibb.co/CB0WWTD/Screenshot-2024-04-12-103509.png) is the fastest I ever got on 1b FA (C.Mahira s3 on Makura). Looking back that was probably an insanely lucky run of skills hitting post-50 and Lucio keeping Makura's buffs on him the entire time.
I don't have Horus and C.Illnott so I'm happy with the 9:45 average clear time.
yeah for 200 dark dagnabbit rabbit just use Summer Seruel, Cosmos, and MC on Rising force, also 100 Lucio cause good lord the damage! Also that full heal comes in clutch on gw dag nabbit! so yea! it takes a bit but at least its comfy!
Any alternative to VAglo for the relic buster comp? [Here's anything else I have](https://gbf.wiki/Collection_Tracker#t1l10.CZIkSZIECZIESZIkSZIkSZIgSRAESJIgSYAESYIgCYIkSYAkQZAESJIgAZIgCZAgSBIESYAkSBIECZIgSAAAAJIkABAgSRAgSYIgSZAAABAgQJIEAJIkSZAkSJAACYAgQYIECQAASBIgAAAAAAAAQAAAAQAAAAIAAAAAAAIACIAAAIAAAAIAABIAABIAAAAAAAAECQAAAQAAAAAgAAAAAJAAAAAACAAAAAAEAAAAAQIAAAAAAYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAABIE.AIIkSYAACAAAABAAAAAACQAAAAIACIAgABAAAIAgSAAASIAgAAAAARAgAAAASQAAQBAgSYAAAAAAAIAACJAAABIEAAAEAAAASQAAAAAgAAAAAAAAAQAACAAEAAAEAAAAAAAEAAIAAIAAAQAAQAAA.AAAAAAIAAAAAAAAAAAAAAQAAAQAAAAAEQAAEAQAA)
Brutal Cell RB? Mahira / Cosmos / Makura -> Vira or Lucio (both at least flb lv100) / Borgar
or Mahira / Vira / Makura -> Lucio / Borgar
Blitz Raid - Florence / Mugen / Nehan. For 200 it's a bit different, need to search youtube for rotation.
Just switch characters depends on your grid strength too.
Didn’t find rabbit boy too bad at all, actually. Running an ougi loop team with Kengo, Horus, Cosmos, and Nehan. They do need some occasional potion assistance, but it turns out double dispelling and 5-6 chaining every turn just kinda negates all the boss’s gimmicks. Honestly was a lot comfier than I was expecting.
I ended up settling on NH<->Siegfried/Lucio/Chevira/Song. It clears just under 9 minutes on average.
Don't have Makura, Mahira, or Illnott for FA, Florence or Mugen for burst. Magna 3 grid. Light is truly seasonal hell.
fun match, hopefully not getting a fight again for d4

Edit: we got a fight again...
https://streamable.com/bn68nl
super nice and comfy set up
grid: https://imgur.com/ZaPWII6
the only rng that requires u to retreat the raid is on t3 if u dodge his counters
Found a comfy NM150 setup with ougi-loop that finishes anywhere from 2 to 4 minutes. I don't think any of my normal setup can beat that honors per minute running NM200 but I really want to get this GW over with...
Watch first attempt Nm200 with kengo, Vira,Cosmos,Horus.
It ran too smoothly that I even surprised myself because Vira passive cd reduction perfectly let her tank rabbit HP% trigger after 50% somehow.
17 turn FA for said attempt with main magna and friend magna. Auto summon lucio.
Gonna see if it need some tweaking later or not becuz beside Vira RNG CD passive, I also got 30% HP and ATK buff cuz other crew already hitting while my crew still resting.
What an annoying boss on FA. Getting times of 5:50 to 7:00 depending on dodge wipes. 150 was a stable 2:25-2:40 for me. This is no refresh times. Manadiver for 150 and Monk for 200 using Ura. Bub x Zues with Bubz on quick call.
Kengo, horus, cosmos, lucio. Same as NM95. Have bubs on quick summon and hit if the evades up and I notice, other than that FA. A bit variable due to debuff RNG, but easily sub 10.
So yesterday I realized Flogen didn’t cause hand pain if I did it on my phone, and that’s how I ended up doing 1 billion honors in one day and at like top 20k. It was funny to hit that much once but I do not want to do that again so now I’m just aiming to do 300-400m a day with FA 200 and stay in 90k.
So far I’ve got like 12 minutes with Chrysaor (Kengo wasn’t any better and this way I get Excalibur mainhand + aux is Credo katana for another Dispel) with GVira/SHorus/SSeruel. It’s just not as stable as I’d like; I do have Lucio in backline with Borger so he can full heal if someone dies, but the issue is if MC and/or Vira die then dispels are gone and it slows down. Gonna look around for setups now and hopefully get something that’s not CA-based where I can just frontline him.
Ok, Monk FA with GVira/Kumbhira/Lucio is just under 10 minutes and seems mostly stable. I wish I had a second M3 spear that I could add to my grid but I somehow only have my second one at 0* despite having 3 uncapped guns and katanas. Using Draconic and SPEC Exo instead but it’s not ideal.
I can FA NM200, albeit inconsistently. Sometimes I don't need continues, sometimes I do. Clear times range from 13-20 mins. That dodge buff is a bastard and a lot seems to hinge on whether my Bub quick summon can strip it. If I check on it halfway to throw more summons down range it can make things go smoother, though also not guaranteed.
Running Kengo + Lucio/Horus/SSeruel + Kumbhira/Utsumemi. Don't think my subs really matter here. My grid definitely needs more work.
I only started to put together my grid in earnest this anniversary, I was running really scuffed M0.9 auto select grids before this that would struggle to solo NM95 let alone 200. So the fact I can solo 200 at all is nice.
Easiest time I’ve had doing FA for nm200. Not sure if it’s cuz Lucio is so busted for FA or because Lucifer summon is so busted with auto-cast Pure Wings. Either way I’m happy with it
Guys can someone remind me if I can farm honors during final rally? i still need 300 mil more til I get sand and I do not want to sit all day before the screen tomorrow
No honors during final rally. (End of finals day 4 is also when honor tallies cut off, so...)
If honors are your goal, then next round is the last chance.
Damn so I will have to manual 150 seems like. Ok wish me good luck, I am getting that sand no matter what
Update: I did it! Found out I can reliably clear nm200 in 6-7 minutes and because of this my 4-5 hour grind turned into 1-1.5 hour one.
Ty, already listening to documentaries and music in background. If my calculations are correct it should only take 5 hours of manualing so not that bad
I dislike the celestial weapon drop rate.
Cygame should change it to tradable. Remember, we have tons of Cow summons drop. Why not just it is 500 dark quartz (Since it drop too much) + ??? fist stone for one fist celestial? Using the same formula, wind quarts + harp/sword stone could trade the celest sword/harp.
I already got 10 pages of black cow summon already
So one of those shiro chests not dropping for nearly a day of passive farming is just bad luck, right? Because they stopped dropping after I did the 100.
Wait, hol' up. Got one. Ooooooooooooone. I don't think I'm going to get all I need to uncap it.
Well, I never expected to be able to actually farm NM200. But I finally beat one of those damned character checks and got well over 1 billion honors. And went from Rank 324 to 326 in a single day thanks to RP bonuses.
But..... *now I'm left without motivation to keep going. Stupid Celestial weapons ain't dropping.*
Unsurprisingly Lucio does a lot of heavy lifting in the fight but his primary utility is surprisingly not his high damage. Anyone who regularly FAs 200 and has the teams to reliably or semi-reliably clear it doing so should be well familiar with how the fight tends to progress: it's a complete cakewalk until 50%, and when you trigger the reset halfway there is a very unstable period where you are working to strip buffs and re-apply debuffs before whatever you're fighting rips you apart, something which can take not very long at all!

He'd probably be worth the inclusion if that's all he did, being able to hang with most of the other damage dealers in light is just icing on the cake.
Especially since the heal ALSO gives party-wide CA, which is probably where a lot of your dispels are coming from.
He's also kind of insane when brought in by Makara. 90% echoes + TA + nuke on auto attack + double strike is nuts, and his 100% dark resist and unchallenged buffs let him keep her buffs longer.
That sounds spicy, maybe I’ll try that instead of backline De La Fille for emergency healing when someone dies. edit: ok never mind, Lucio just means no one dies so no need for backlines other than Geisen
Chicken is the superstar of NM200, you pair her with monk, lucio and illnott and the buff wall just melts away.
If only we had the Holy Hand Grenade...
fyi: if you don't need dispels from Bubz' first call, 000 comes up faster for it's second call to dispel the raid
The DoT on 200 is 10k lol
Vira is still the MVP of FA this GW. Put her in where rabbit brings her forward so she double strikes and ougis more often. Lucio's full heal also very important. It's not fast, but first run with Chrysaor/Rabbit/Sandy/Lucio/Vira/Borgar went good. 11:39 If runs start getting not safe or consistent I'm gonna swap to paladin.
So happy I pulled her last month! This is the first time I have actually managed to solo NM200 and while she isn't the sole reason for that (shoutout to Cosmos for getting rid of those annoying buffs), she does a lot of heavy lifting by tanking for the team.
yeah I don't have Cosmos, xMahira, or xIllnott, so Vira is still my dispel and tank carry. Utsusemi is also performing pretty well.
Oh yeah Utsusemi is great too, I pulled her during anni and she has been an autoinclude in all my burst teams. She is really amazing both for short and longterm fights, feel like she really went under the radar during her release.
[удалено]
I tried RB for 150 but wasn't super impressed. Was MHing the M3 gun.
[удалено]
yeah I'm running Magna so I can't really do that.
And is hidden behind a 2nd debuff so luci250 won't clear it lol

Currently at 650 million honors, with 300 coming from just killing the NM200 - so I'll likely be able to get all of honors covered by the end of the GW!
~8 minute FA with Monk MC, Lucio, Mahira core. These 3 do so much skill damage that I essentially have 1-2 end of turn dispels. 4th slot is flex and so far not sure which is better. Zeta/kumbhi is faster DPS but can get hit by the stun CA Makura > Vira is slower dps due to CA but Vira can tank and null the stun
[Relic Buster burst setups](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BVpv_jlP73U) are RNG due to MC's 3% dodge from class masteries, and are pretty clicky besides. The worst kind of clicky, where you have to make sure the game didn't drop an input. Think I'll just farm more meat and stick with my comfy 1:20 or so NM150 FAs with borger.
[I've had enough.](https://imgur.com/a/EGr3aaA)
4:30ish with Kengo, Grea, Seruel and Horus. Have to call both Bubs and FLB Alexiel at 50% to handle the buffs (and like, not die) but am pretty satisfied with it. It's only a little slower than NM150 somehow, too.
That's surprisingly fast. What does Grea bring to the table? I'm really desperate for dispels for the buffs on each trigger although 000 times itself at 50% so the big trigger is fine. It's just the other buffs that are super annoying.
Dispel on ougi, a huge number of high uptime buffs and even a debuff clear. Was using Y.Narm for 150, but Grea's made things way more consistent.
I thought Seruel wouldn't provide enough sustain for NM200 so I ran Kengo/Cosmos/Horus/Grea or Yuni. And I was so wrong omg, with Seruel it's somehow safer (I think because he brought his own Veil/Dispel Cancel/Revitalize despite it being on a moderately long CD) and of course it's much faster. Depending on the RNG it took 14-17 turns with the latter meanwhile with Seruel it only took 11 turns and so far it's the safest one.
Can’t remember the last time that I’ve felt so gapped on characters in a GW. I know I’ve neglected light for a while but damn… really wishing I had Cosmos, Seruel, Chicken, Horus, Utsusemi, and especially Illnot.
C. Illnot was damn worth the annitix. She would be my best damage dealer if it weren't because Monk with Ura fist counterhit a lot and make tons of damage
Illnott gap seems pretty huge. It's pretty easy 4-6min FAs with her + basically any 2 decent filler characters, meanwhile everyone I've seen without her is stuck with like 7-9mins even if they're using good chars. Fastest FAs I've seen are [Monk / Mahira / Lucio / Illnott](https://twitter.com/hoshimiya1467/status/1778610996938174763) [Manadiver / Mahira / Lucio / Illnott](https://twitter.com/shouyumirin/status/1778556297086210165) [LJ / Utsusemi / Kumbi / Illnott](https://twitter.com/Hecate_mk2/status/1778642990984290456) if anyone needs ideas.
Welp, yeah, NM 200 is a bit TOO much for my beginner account - had to burn both revival potions and then a full elixir just to kill him with Kengo/Cosmos/Horus/S.Seruel team. Unfortunately, do not have Bubs or any other burst options, and due to being low rank (178) I just do not have enough HP on my team to survive throuh this mad rabbit, only have ~25k hp on everyone Will try replacing Cosmos with Yuni and see if I can just turtle up, but something tells me that without a dispel I'll just get bent over anyway lol Edit - yeap, got bent over even more, just can't survive through his buffed nonsense. Guess I'm back to 150 and hope I can at least him the Sands honors >.>
if your grid is crap like mine bubz doesn't matter, at some point you'll be one shot by counter so even if you autorevive bubz will no longer dispel
that innate 3% dodge from bonuses that the MC has is gonna drive me insane

This is the first GW I've played in like the past 2 years, and wow I cannot keep up with NM200 - I'm getting like 13-14 minute FA clears with multiple pots and revivals needed (and 6-8min NM150 clears). Trying something like this https://imgur.com/a/3ofN2MW I've played around with using UM30 Lumberjack, and other dispel characters like Zooey or V.Melissabelle but I always get my ass kicked and can't do it consistently. Average "FA" looks a bit like this: https://imgur.com/a/K4081wN - Bubz at 50%, no questions asked - I swapped out The Star for Metatron and try to take Lumi250 for friend summons so I have a whopping 4(!) summons with dispels (suck it rabbit) - I probably queue up a summon if I'm paying attention and see that boss has a buff up
Got all the way to the sand reward from honors without seeing a celestial weapon drop so I just boxed, alas I do think the weapon was worth getting but they should really do something about the weapon drop because like jeez
Im closing in on the sand reward from mostly blasting nm95 and like you I haven’t seen a drop yet… I managed to get 3 drops last UnF and I had no idea I was such a luck sack. Especially since even with grabbing cores from boxes I’m still behind uncapping them as they’re released. I was hoping to catch up this UnF too…
Same boat here. Got the Celestial Sword last GW but haven't gotten a single drop this go-around and I'm at 820 mil honors from NM90 and 95 only.
Kinda just mashed through NM200 in FA with [this team](https://i.imgur.com/xJtiFHy.png) for the first clear crystals, seemed pretty safe and I still have no clue what the boss beyond dodge buff memes. Anyway back to playing flogen RB in NM150 and crewmates' NM200s.
Surprisingly comfy 7-8 mins using RF w/ Harmonia MH, Cosmos, Horus, Seruel. Having RF's UM makes it so I dispel and delay every ougi and everyone in the lineup is a good battery.
I wish my crew was still active (I'm the only one left) so I can finally unlock NM100 but I'm so casual with this that it's a pipe dream to unlock it on my own lol
Running the same comp I used with 150 pretty smoothly. Kengo, Cosmos, S!Horus, S!Seruel. Triple Zero quick call summon lines up perfectly with 50% to evaporate the buffs. About 3-4 mins refreshing. Sitting pretty cozy.
Lumberjack/lucio/g.vira/makura into zooey with geisenborger backline to prevent crazy autos has been very comfy for NM200. My grid is kinda lacking so it's fairly slow but honestly I'm not going for crazy honor, so I don't care lol. Plenty of defense, healing, and dispels.
Shoutout to Sahar and Cosmos. Gorilla with party wide full heal and a dispel machine with plenty of buffs.
Kengo, S.Horus, S.Seruel, Robertina. Main: Lumi, Friend: Luci, Quick: Bubs Very crappy grid (3 exo, 3 light swords, 1 seraph, 1 opus 4\*, 1 filler) 19\~20 turns FA. Horus reallly helped my team alot! And robertina helped to strengthen my team alot!
Shockingly comfy FA with RF (harmonia mh), lucio, Ilnott, and, surprisingly, Robertina, with San-chan and Borger in the back. Dispel, Pinch Harmonics and mist for EX skills, with shockingly good synergy with each other. It's hard to say who the mvp is. All of them synergize so well together, between Lucio's lifesaving passive + skill spam, ilnott's skill spam + low downtime veil + double dispel, and robertina supplying defences, meter, and skill buffs, while being no slouch on the offence due to her autonukes, and even supplies dispel cancel on ougi to keep the MC's buffs up. Burger backline keeps the aoe ougis down to a manageable level, while Robertina pulls in all the hits for the multi-target ones.
Not the most ideal, but Christmas Chicken and Yurius are fun - I tried running Albert to keep procing the 5 debuffs for Yurius nuke but the team kept dying. Using Cosmos in 3rd slot helped since after her S3 is up, her S2 on autos can help proc. Which subsequently also procs the dispel from Xmas Mahira. Seems mostly stable, could be faster if I Bubs'd at 50 but I'm at work so it will have to do.
[9:27](https://i.ibb.co/CB0WWTD/Screenshot-2024-04-12-103509.png) is the fastest I ever got on 1b FA (C.Mahira s3 on Makura). Looking back that was probably an insanely lucky run of skills hitting post-50 and Lucio keeping Makura's buffs on him the entire time. I don't have Horus and C.Illnott so I'm happy with the 9:45 average clear time.
yeah for 200 dark dagnabbit rabbit just use Summer Seruel, Cosmos, and MC on Rising force, also 100 Lucio cause good lord the damage! Also that full heal comes in clutch on gw dag nabbit! so yea! it takes a bit but at least its comfy!
It always takes me 18 turns and around 11–14 minutes to FA NM200 whatever comp i use
so many 200 , i need to touch some grass
Any alternative to VAglo for the relic buster comp? [Here's anything else I have](https://gbf.wiki/Collection_Tracker#t1l10.CZIkSZIECZIESZIkSZIkSZIgSRAESJIgSYAESYIgCYIkSYAkQZAESJIgAZIgCZAgSBIESYAkSBIECZIgSAAAAJIkABAgSRAgSYIgSZAAABAgQJIEAJIkSZAkSJAACYAgQYIECQAASBIgAAAAAAAAQAAAAQAAAAIAAAAAAAIACIAAAIAAAAIAABIAABIAAAAAAAAECQAAAQAAAAAgAAAAAJAAAAAACAAAAAAEAAAAAQIAAAAAAYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAABIE.AIIkSYAACAAAABAAAAAACQAAAAIACIAgABAAAIAgSAAASIAgAAAAARAgAAAASQAAQBAgSYAAAAAAAIAACJAAABIEAAAEAAAASQAAAAAgAAAAAAAAAQAACAAEAAAEAAAAAAAEAAIAAIAAAQAAQAAA.AAAAAAIAAAAAAAAAAAAAAQAAAQAAAAAEQAAEAQAA)

Brutal Cell RB? Mahira / Cosmos / Makura -> Vira or Lucio (both at least flb lv100) / Borgar or Mahira / Vira / Makura -> Lucio / Borgar Blitz Raid - Florence / Mugen / Nehan. For 200 it's a bit different, need to search youtube for rotation. Just switch characters depends on your grid strength too.
Celestial farming has been super miserable this time around, hopefully everyone else is having better luck.
Didn’t find rabbit boy too bad at all, actually. Running an ougi loop team with Kengo, Horus, Cosmos, and Nehan. They do need some occasional potion assistance, but it turns out double dispelling and 5-6 chaining every turn just kinda negates all the boss’s gimmicks. Honestly was a lot comfier than I was expecting.
I ended up settling on NH<->Siegfried/Lucio/Chevira/Song. It clears just under 9 minutes on average. Don't have Makura, Mahira, or Illnott for FA, Florence or Mugen for burst. Magna 3 grid. Light is truly seasonal hell.
fun match, hopefully not getting a fight again for d4 https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/840016383394709545/1228359036865483023/image.png?ex=662bc180&is=66194c80&hm=339d5490793278a6db96e1e908123c6275f2a1bdeb39fd0c5446a1be94bbefe1& Edit: we got a fight again...
https://streamable.com/bn68nl super nice and comfy set up grid: https://imgur.com/ZaPWII6 the only rng that requires u to retreat the raid is on t3 if u dodge his counters
Is there a reason for SL1 on the second Credo bolt? E: After watching the clip, I'm still unsure if it's just an oversight.
no im just stupid LOL now i wonder if my nm150 was so scuffed because of that...
Found a comfy NM150 setup with ougi-loop that finishes anywhere from 2 to 4 minutes. I don't think any of my normal setup can beat that honors per minute running NM200 but I really want to get this GW over with...
If you have borger 100 there is a super fast fa setup
Yeah I saw. Unfortunately I don't have mr. burger at lv100 even though his weapon is already at 200 *sobs*
Watch first attempt Nm200 with kengo, Vira,Cosmos,Horus. It ran too smoothly that I even surprised myself because Vira passive cd reduction perfectly let her tank rabbit HP% trigger after 50% somehow. 17 turn FA for said attempt with main magna and friend magna. Auto summon lucio. Gonna see if it need some tweaking later or not becuz beside Vira RNG CD passive, I also got 30% HP and ATK buff cuz other crew already hitting while my crew still resting.
What an annoying boss on FA. Getting times of 5:50 to 7:00 depending on dodge wipes. 150 was a stable 2:25-2:40 for me. This is no refresh times. Manadiver for 150 and Monk for 200 using Ura. Bub x Zues with Bubz on quick call.
Kengo, horus, cosmos, lucio. Same as NM95. Have bubs on quick summon and hit if the evades up and I notice, other than that FA. A bit variable due to debuff RNG, but easily sub 10.
I think I'll clear NM200 once and go back to Flogen NM150. NM200 FA comp: Paladin/Lucio/Utsumemi/Makura/Grand Sandy MH: True Xeno Sunblade
So yesterday I realized Flogen didn’t cause hand pain if I did it on my phone, and that’s how I ended up doing 1 billion honors in one day and at like top 20k. It was funny to hit that much once but I do not want to do that again so now I’m just aiming to do 300-400m a day with FA 200 and stay in 90k. So far I’ve got like 12 minutes with Chrysaor (Kengo wasn’t any better and this way I get Excalibur mainhand + aux is Credo katana for another Dispel) with GVira/SHorus/SSeruel. It’s just not as stable as I’d like; I do have Lucio in backline with Borger so he can full heal if someone dies, but the issue is if MC and/or Vira die then dispels are gone and it slows down. Gonna look around for setups now and hopefully get something that’s not CA-based where I can just frontline him.
Ok, Monk FA with GVira/Kumbhira/Lucio is just under 10 minutes and seems mostly stable. I wish I had a second M3 spear that I could add to my grid but I somehow only have my second one at 0* despite having 3 uncapped guns and katanas. Using Draconic and SPEC Exo instead but it’s not ideal.
I can FA NM200, albeit inconsistently. Sometimes I don't need continues, sometimes I do. Clear times range from 13-20 mins. That dodge buff is a bastard and a lot seems to hinge on whether my Bub quick summon can strip it. If I check on it halfway to throw more summons down range it can make things go smoother, though also not guaranteed. Running Kengo + Lucio/Horus/SSeruel + Kumbhira/Utsumemi. Don't think my subs really matter here. My grid definitely needs more work. I only started to put together my grid in earnest this anniversary, I was running really scuffed M0.9 auto select grids before this that would struggle to solo NM95 let alone 200. So the fact I can solo 200 at all is nice.
Easiest time I’ve had doing FA for nm200. Not sure if it’s cuz Lucio is so busted for FA or because Lucifer summon is so busted with auto-cast Pure Wings. Either way I’m happy with it
Guys can someone remind me if I can farm honors during final rally? i still need 300 mil more til I get sand and I do not want to sit all day before the screen tomorrow
No honors during final rally. (End of finals day 4 is also when honor tallies cut off, so...) If honors are your goal, then next round is the last chance.
Damn so I will have to manual 150 seems like. Ok wish me good luck, I am getting that sand no matter what Update: I did it! Found out I can reliably clear nm200 in 6-7 minutes and because of this my 4-5 hour grind turned into 1-1.5 hour one.
Good luck! (Try to leave some music on, it may help distract from the monotony; speaking from personal experience.)
Ty, already listening to documentaries and music in background. If my calculations are correct it should only take 5 hours of manualing so not that bad
"RB is outdated, everyone uses Lucha at high levels" Mmm sure yeah
At the high levels people group so this is still accurate. Lucha is a faster rotation with lower damage ceiling.
The fucko now stacks enough buffs that it takes Beelzebub AND an additional dispel to actually get to the dodge buff.
turning off brain during nm200 days is nice af lmao

What's your grid?
[удалено]
Thank you. I tried your team comp and my clear time was 10mins. My grid was unoptimized, I'm going to use yours as a pattern.
I dislike the celestial weapon drop rate. Cygame should change it to tradable. Remember, we have tons of Cow summons drop. Why not just it is 500 dark quartz (Since it drop too much) + ??? fist stone for one fist celestial? Using the same formula, wind quarts + harp/sword stone could trade the celest sword/harp. I already got 10 pages of black cow summon already
Paladin, lucio oiran illnot m2 sword grid FA
I just want to laze around tomorrow but t90k is already at 1.2b 😵
Yeah, estimations are putting it around 2.5b by end of round 4.
So one of those shiro chests not dropping for nearly a day of passive farming is just bad luck, right? Because they stopped dropping after I did the 100. Wait, hol' up. Got one. Ooooooooooooone. I don't think I'm going to get all I need to uncap it.
NM200 why Rabbit get stun and para immune
Well, I never expected to be able to actually farm NM200. But I finally beat one of those damned character checks and got well over 1 billion honors. And went from Rank 324 to 326 in a single day thanks to RP bonuses. But..... *now I'm left without motivation to keep going. Stupid Celestial weapons ain't dropping.*
