---------------------

I'm really glad to see that hybrid Br seems to be way more viable now and that Sega fixed Alter Ego Harmony into something that doesn't completely ruin Su/Fi Deadline strats, can we fix Limit Break insurance next? I wonder whenever or not the Power and PP recovery effect of Snatch Step will spice up Te/Br a little. Other than that a little disappointed there is no improvements to Tech classes outside of Element conversion.

So Braver is gonna have a lot more wiggle room to spread those SP and EPO is gonna possibly have more chances to drop. Nice. >.<;

I'm still kinda wondering what rod I should shoot for next since Phobos is still garbo (Have phobos rod but meh) and EC is gonna be adjusted,,,

call me crazy but given how Element conversion has been changed, it's probably better (for now) to keep EPD and only put one point into ele conversion. once a significantly stronger and accessible rod hits (good luck getting Ares, and Shien's pot requires you to element match still which is a problem for compound conversion) and dump the rest in stuff like flare. Of course, this won't be future proof tho.

EDIT : oh right they are also adjusting the potential so you'd probably get screwed by the weaker potential anyway. RIP

They could make it so that the potential is just changing the values to 75%/75% for EPD and 50%/50% for Atra period, without any multipliers.
But yeah having the option to save 4sp on Element conversion is definitely a welcome and unexpected change.

[Altiea]

I see someone is trying to beat me to it.

[Touka]

What is the chat command for "freezing" lobby actions?I don't see it on bumped.

I'm just a bored European.
Perfect timezone to make topics like this, atrocious Timezone when it comes to Emergency quests.

[ZerotakerZX]

I wonder if I'll be able to remove discontinued rings from my units.

[ArcaneTechs]

almost time to see if I need to put my EPD down or not and pick up one of the other rods collecting dust in storage. Im sorta upset about the Alter Ego nerf making it take longer for me to get Deadline skill proc'd

You can overwrite them at any time with another ring.
