Coming back from a year long hiatus

[ShilohSham]

Anyhow, beside dewman's and braver and the ton of outfits and other lookie loo things that are out now....

have I missed anything major? could anyone like sum up in short footnotes what the past year has been?

[Zorafim]

Nothing major. Just minor things, like you've mentioned. I think everyone is doing advanced quests and extreme quests now, and hoping for 11*s from the Tower Defense EQ.
I suppose I should mention that right now, Bravers and Gunners are much stronger than everyone else. Give it some time and the situation will reverse.

- Coast, Quarry and Seabed areas.
- Super Hard mode (requires lvl 50, no client order needed to unlock).
- Mine Base Defense emergency quest, it has higher chances of dropping 11* weapons that drop from Dark Falz Elder, plus a few new ones.
- Adjustments to exp requirements to level up for lvl 46~65 (now less exp is required to lvl up than before).
- A bunch of new PAs/techs.
- Super Hard Advance Quests (only forest, caves and desert so far, tundra, tunnels and skyland AQs will get SH mode in a few weeks).
- Floor 51 ~ 60 for the Tundra Extreme Quest (introducing a bunch of new spellstone 11*s, also the 11* weapons that drop from this XQ became easier to find).
- 11* trading passes, now it's possible to buy/sell 11* weapons in player shops, though to buy one, it's required to trade an 11* weapon for a trading pass (this requires premium).
- A bunch of new story chapters, up to Matterboard 15/Episode 2 Chapter 4 now.
EDIT: Completely forgot to mention crafting...

Here's some bullet points that I can re-call in the past year:

Spoiler!

>Braver Class.

>Braver Class is now OP.

>Gunner Class is now OP.

>Lots of AC scratches such as clothes and accessories (and one collaboration of "Fate". In March 26 it will be Attack on Titan iirc).

>Multiple Team rooms.

>Super Hard Difficulty (requirement of lv50).

>1 Super Hard Time Attack Client Order from Klotho.

>Super Hard Advanced Quests.

>New weapons (7* -> 11*).

>11* Weapon passes (to buy from player shops).

>Craft for Weapons and Units (make weak weapons stronger with a universal base stats depending on rarity).

>Lowered EXP to lv up.

>More Story stuff.

Feel free to add on this list if i'd missed something!

Dumb question I'm going on a Limb and say hunter is still best subclass for DPS in most cases?

I do recall before I left that Ra/Hu was stupid strong and I myself with a crappy gunslash was able to pull of high numbers with ez

[HIT0SHI]

Yes it is still is. Most of the OP'ness comes with Hunter being subbed.

[Zorafim]

Hunter's one of the worst mains, but by far the best sub. There's no comparing to it.

huh wait what?

Worst as in 'Cant do 60k damage per second with PA's' But it ain't precisely unusable by any stretch of the imagination and depending on your weapons, its really, really powerful imo.....

Also, grinding weapons became extremely easier compared to this time a year ago (12*s excluded, but that probably doesn't even matter) which was missed, in addition to expanding slots when affixing got somewhat easier ( 2 -> 3 slots is 85% base now, instead of 70%)
