Introduction

August 24th marks the debut of patch 9.3.1 which brings forth a whole host of new changes and i would like to use this post to highlight the ones of most importance. This will not be a full list of every single updates and you still should read the patch notes in full. The Badge System will be detailed in a separate posting due to the sheer size and can be found HERE.

Overview

Skill Improvements

In this update, numerous cards received various buffs that may enhance their viability or usage.

Izanagi Izanagi

Izanagi was the recipient of a special JP buff that allows him to achieve 110.25x ATK for God types when above 80% HP AND matching 3+ light combos. That is a lot of effort and impractical for everyday usage. In addition, he also gained a SBR Skill Lock Resist awakening and -1 turn on his max cooldown for active. However, all of this is largely irrelvant due to his Awoken form Awoken Izanagi being the better option in almost every scenario as he becomes a 49x ATK / 4x RCV / 75% damage reduction heart-cross leader.

Introduction

The  9.3.1 came with a whole host of exciting updates, evolutions, quality of life improvements, and the Badge/Quest system. However, I will only be covering the Badge System in this article as I wish to clarify and explain how it works and how it will have an impact on your game play.

This post will always contain the most up to date information as I cannot edit a video XD

Badge System 101

With the advent of coop holding countless advantages such as an augmented health pool, more actives, and half stamina, solo play has begun to feel a little lackluster. Thus, GungHo has introduced a system to help even the scales and reward those who choose to puzzle solo. The Badge system consists of a series of quests to unlock varying rewards:

  • Team Cost +100 – Increases Max Team Cost by 100
  • Move time +1 second – Extends Orb move time by 1 second
  • Mass Attack – Attacks become Mass Attacks
  • Team RCV +25% – Increases Team RCV by 25%
  • Team HP +5% – Increases Team HP by 5%
  • Team ATK +5% – Increases Team ATK by 5%
  • Skillboost – Team’s skills charged by 1 turn
  • Leaders Bind immune – Team Leaders become Bind immune
  • Skill Bind resists +50% – Increases Skill Bind Resist by 50%

In solo mode, you can choose to use any one of those badges; however, with the exception of +100 team cost, none can be used in multiplayer.

In addition to the badge for your teams, you will also unlock rewards periodically when you complete quests:

Periodic rewards

These rewards will be sent to your mailbox and will be held there for 365 days. However, it appears you can let them sit in the quest menu indefinitely.  Continue reading Badge/Quest System Explained →
