they hint some pic on #🙏|2023-wish
did u see it?
Nope
high chance
Oh goodness
but dont expect too much
me too
Yeah definitely trying to go for a7 Relixx
just some free tickets
But great comp will be
Talking about Cactus?
Ye
Taurex Relixx
Alynx
Toko Dururu
Only gotten dururu and biscuits on patch day lol
Managed to get it to a8 on 1st week
mine was a9 + 1 and 2 biscuits
high chance for me
but anything can happen
this scum drop rate
Like shadow nerf to drop rate
Only respectable drop rate was Tokotoko
nah, that happen to me on Toko
It feels so useless trying to do hard mode everytime lol
had to use diamond for some extra tickets
Waah, y'all keeping me up
5s toys worth the hardwork

Didn't realize this thread would pop off when I first made it. I think it's cause @shell grail kept endorsing it, lol
5s toys does help out but its kinda rough when you only have low awakened dururu
just to keep it clean
on this FA topic
Why Defending Ebon always cannot cast his skill against this team? Anyone know?
Both A10 Ebon
more foot step
Doesnt the attacking ebon take the same amount of steps too?
nope, Dururu is melee, right?
attacking Ebon walked to defending Ebon, ignored Dururu
oh no you are right, I watched the wrong replay.
What about this one, they were head on. Defending Ebon still couldn't use his skill
a10 both?
yeah
not sure, wait for @tawdry coyote master.
cool thx
Issit because of the last 3 fam. They are CC right
flutter has no cc?
I have 3 egg selectors, should I start building a Squiby or focus on one of the Awakenings I already have?
Stag seems okay
Defending usually has priority but it's a numbers game (%) I believe. If it were in position 3, it should've charged first.
I would either hold off or use on hippo to A5. Break points are A3, A7, A10. But you do get stats along the way.
A3 rares for the most part are pointless. You might as well invest heavily in one from egg selectors than spread your resources thin, and end up with a bunch of mediocrity.
If you prefer stall, molten lion, since it's already gummied and Relixx coming out.
From selectors, the noteworthy are Arachnes, Bunnybot, Squibby, then Hippo then others. Arachnes is high burst and provides damage debuff, Bunnybot blocks hits and mitigates cc, Squibby heals and mitigates dmg.
pos 3 def ebon never wanted to charge first 🥲
Behind Alynx?
How Relixx interacts with Molten Lion?
Id rather focus on building a more offensive team to try to climb more ranks
Not much, people just might be more offensive with Relixx coming out after such a long stall meta.
Ive seen ppl using Taurex + Boar + Molten on Def team, is that any relevant on top 10?
Boar isn't, no.
Unless you're in a very low paying server.
I think I might be... this is my go-to atk team, usually only swapping positions
Im constantly top20
based on that I wanted to use my selector to get more options on atk
If you pull in the future on banners, if you can't get A7, maybe hold off.
Suiryū currently a7 =/ but already maxed
I recommended upgrading your A3 hippo. It's low/medium burst cc like cat.
A3 Arachnes wouldn't survive more than once cast if even.
I like Arach, but would need at least A7, right?
Yes, and even then, I only make use of it because I have A10 bunnybot.
Should I then hold on to the eggs, maybe see if I can get a couple more to do a big boost on one Familar? I also think one A7-10 makes a greater impact on FA
yeah
Also assuming Helixx is next, is it worth getting it only to A3? or should I save and invest higher on another (like the sun, cactus or petal)
Lemme see, there's one positioning I've used where P3 Taurex doesn't charge P1.
all of these I charged first. I think the only time was when I had two small melee in 4/5 and Tokotoko in 2.
So I think Squibby in 2 and the melee in 4/5 would be similar. I haven't repeated that too many times though, because I don't like to repeatedly lose.
I think I see the difference, the defending ebon in your screenshots are in pos 1, while the one in mine, both ebon are in pos 3
I don't like to lose either haha
but this chance is so favourable to the attacker that it is not understandable
There are ways of increasing odds with placement of units their size and melee/ranged.
it was 5 matches with the same attacker, all 5 my ebon didnt charge
and it was the p1 p1 ?
p3 v p3
when does your Dururu go off?
a10 dururu
Does their Taurex attack your Dururu first?
let me see if I can catch the timing of dururu skill
It is probably cause Dururu moves forward
But you said it was Alynx P1 Taurex P3 ?
on your side?
dururu uses his skill before my ebon
1st match stag didnt move an inch
same as 2nd match
3rd match was the same as the 2nd
Does that happen without Dururu?
That's the only thing I can see.
I tried other defenders to replace dururu but that made me die faster haha
have you ever put Dururu in p2?
Maybe my ebon got confused because dururu just jumped away
Yes I tried that!
ebon pos 1 and dururu pos 2
vs their ebon pos 3 and I win
eh?
what were other placements
so it was:
Alynx Taurex
Shrimpaler*
Squibby Dururu ?
pos 1 ebon charged at pos 2 arachnes so their pos 3 ebon missed their skill on my ebon
Arachnes didn't move like it normally did because of Dururu?
That's the only reason I can think of.
Arachnes moved to Dururu, so they both walked towards each other
Dururu skill goes off before Ebon
yea
so then
where did the defending ebon walk to?
your Ebon targetted Arachnes after that?
no, ebon and dururu both walk to Arachnes
yes my ebon does the same too, walks towards their stag and ebon
in this pos, my ebon charges first.
but I realise that their pos 3 ebon takes a different path around stag , if he walks under stag, then he will charge first at my ebon
more steps mean that it will charge first?
if their ebon walks above stag, my pos 3 ebon charges first
but their ebon almost always take the bottom path
even though I charge first I still lose lol
Can you show me screenshot of how they move?
ok gimme a sec
dururu and their ebon used their skill at the same time and then my ebon used his skill
It looks like Dururu pathing is making their Taurex charge
So your Dururu is interrupting their team?
I don't know if it can be considered as interrupting their team, after this screenshot, Dururu jumped to the back
well they all get knocked down by Dururu skill right?
It looks like everyone was trying to attack my Dururu
that's what it looks like in screenshot
dururu knocked down shrimp at the back
oh so only one knockdown
yeah
what happens?
Dururu makes their units proc with Dururu, then Ebon charges when it gets target and in range
yes thats what happened but their ebon still made it 1 sec before my ebon
Because of Dururu
hmmm...
So I think best is not to have Dururu get in my Ebon's way or else it messes up
I tried Ebon p1 Dururu p2. they go off same time
Yes that worked for me too
So Ebon can’t go behind dururu
But I wonder what if Ebon p3 dururu p5/p2 If it makes a difference
The thing is
when I replay
even tho the skills supposedly go off at the same time
Dururu becomes untaregettable way before Taurex charges
this is p1 Dururu p2 Taurex
I’m starting to know how to play fam arena well 😃😃
This is p3 Taurex and p1 Dururu
skills not even going off at same time
p1 Taurex p2 Dururu
When I switch to p1 Taurex and p5 Dururu they go off same time
That’s funny? Why?
Dururu has to go further. Units move towards Taurex first.
So if everyone targets Ebon, Ebon will charge first
But if everyone targets dururu, Ebon will fail
okay
I found something weird
On Attack: only small melee in p3 and flutterby in p5 VS melee p1-p3 flutterby p5 my flutterby always goes first. If I add all small melee to 1-4 and p5 flutterby, my flutterby will never go first. If it is p1 small melee p2 flutterby it will go last, but if the rest are small melee p2 will go first or same time.
p1 Dururu p2 Flutterby, both go at same time after their Flutterby
p3 Dururu p5 Fluttterby, both go at same time first
p1 Dururu p5 Flutterby, both go off first
Great finding! Thanks for the info! But I wonder why it’s like that ?
p5 Dururu p1 Flutterby, Dururu goes off first Flutterby go off same time
I don’t understand how the order of placement can change skill casting time
You can roughly see when skills are ready by portrait (it is a bad indicator, but it is something). When they actually cast is different though.
Yea it’s not in sync
When I fill 2-4 with melee with same, p5 Dururu p1 Flutterby, both go off at same time as other Flutterby
Does that mean dururu is best to be placed at p5?
I tried with all large melee instead now 1-4 and Dururu 5 and it still goes first
now I try with Squibby p2
seems to go same time as Flutterby
1-4 all small ranged Dururu 5, same time
1 Dururu 2-5 small ranged, Dururu goes same time*
3 Dururu 1,2,4,5 small ranged, Dururu goes first

So order, unit size, melee/range make a big difference
Gosh ok I’ll have to work out with my comp
So from what it looks like, Bunnybot, Arachnes, Taurex have same priority. Dururu and Flutterby are higher. However, during cast, Taurex can interrupt while Bunnybot and Arachnes can be interrupted.
but my Arachnes is A7 and Bunnybot A10
so idk if A10 Arachnes cast is faster
lemme check history, I think they should be same
Cool
same time
A10 a7 same time ?
yes
Interesting
Defense p3 Taurex p1 cat works differently than attack
looks like most times, p3 def Taurex takes the long route around cat and doesn't get aggro first, so it charges second (gets interrupted by charge)..
Yea so maybe cat is better to be placed elsewhere
Thanks for your analysis, it’s very helpful 🥰
too bad it is only on attack side
Too complicated haha
I asked my friends to attack me, but it will take a LONG time

Haha that’s ok, not in a rush
😌😌I use toko pos1 to block enemy mite pos1 😂
That sounds like a bad idea.

梅干しちゃん
work well though
If you have Taurex behind

Molten only A3
I'd use your Tokotoko, Boar, Taurex, Mite, Suiryū+Hippo and/or Shrimpaler
For attack: Mite, Taurex, Suiryū, Hippo, Tokotoko not that order. Preferable order if opponent is p1 Taurex:
Taurex Suiryū
Hippo
Mite Toko
I tried for attack but REKT
Hippo. Mite
Toko. Taurex
Suiryuu
vs who/what team comp?
I gave you general team comp
Any idea for mite to target frontline
To kill a mite in frontline???
Or your mite to target their frontline?
This . target backline I mean😂
わかんない。

Oh your mite target their back
It has to survive

Mite usually dies very fast, but deals a lot of damage and does cc
If you have Mite & Taurex same line, it will sometimes survive to get more than one skill off.
@digital spoke

That’s why . I might try again when I max jelly for him. might go for 3 gloves . who can kill him easily?
Who can kill mite easily? Any damage dealer.
Open only if you have spare
@bitter wing try here
suggest me for arena plss
what's your current rank? how high u aim for?
what's your current setup?
dunno, only got gold 1 now 
just max potential what i hv
Any good lineup to win staghorn
@regal ledge always fight same comp on def, and always lose. They have all rares A10. This time, my cow charge before theirs and before Ursa proc (A10 Ursa is 100%). So there is always RNG component...
Depends what awakening stag and what fire/grass/light/dark familiars* you have available.
For the most part, a stag pulling a Kona/Flynx/Mite is bad unless there is follow up to instakill or kill before next skill rotation in the case of Mite.
The hypothetical I give is if the Kona/Flynx/Mite are appropriately awakened ofc. Not just A0 or A3.
unfortunately i only have mite a7, the nearest is oro a4
Don't bother with low awaken rares in familiar arena. They won't do you any good.
i guess the min to be good in arena will be 7 at least
It depends on your rank and spending habits of players in your server, but A5-7 is where stats get high enough to maybe matter, and A7 in particular is a breakpoint.
It also depends on what role that familiar has. A lower awakening Hippo may be fine, because it is usually in back row where it is "safer" whereas Stag is frontline and would just melt to any amount of reasonable dps say lower awakening.
If your other units make up for the deficit in a low awakening Hippo, and the grouping up cc is vital to your teamcomp, then it may be viable vs certain team comps.
This is just an example ofc. I'm not saying go all out for Hippo.
stag is just too annoying, the suck dem
ok I hate this RNG haha. Thanks for testing bunny!
Did byrde nerfed again? Even when its able to cast his skill 2-3 times dmg still super low (20-30k total for all fight)/
Yes.
I am writing to express my outrage and disappointment with the recent nerf to the familiar "Byrde". This change has significantly impacted my gameplay experience and I feel that I am being unfairly prejudiced by it.
I had a Byrde at awakening level 10, and before the nerf it was dealing 120% damage. Now it is only dealing 100%, which is a huge decrease in its effectiveness. I have invested both time and money into this game, and it is unacceptable for you to make such a drastic change without any warning or notification to the players.
Your lack of transparency and communication is unacceptable, and as a paying customer, I expect explanations for these kinds of changes. Your actions have shown a complete lack of consideration for the players who have supported your game, and I am deeply disappointed in the way this situation has been handled.
I demand answers and an explanation for this unacceptable change. As a player who has invested so much into this game, I deserve to be treated with respect and to have my concerns addressed.
which familiar should I focus on equipping first? I have two 5* toy selector, and they are all with 3 of their respective 4* toys (except Toko, which hast 6/5/5)
ebon
cool, will do it, after that Alynx or Mite/Oro?
a.lynx
So, this guy already attacked me 9 times… I can't think of a way to beat his attack... any ideas?
In every battle, my Taurex push his Toko to the back and stays there until it dies, while his Boar just holds my team with his health bar barely moving
Show us your fam list
yay! grinding slowly.
hard to say, try swap you boar/ebon position, replace a.lynx with Oro.
try ebon mite boar suiryu toko
What ?!! i'm suprised this is coming earlier
Hi ' im new here.
Player from Sand Virgo
only focusing on FA
In which part did it say jan 11? Sry cant find it
the bottom part
Oh thats january 11? Cant read thai lol
@tawdry coyote, should I use my dias to a10 Dururu? I need 1 more copy + 4 biscuits (or 2 copy). damn, such an unlucky 10 run for me.
nvm, I did it already. xD
got it at the end?
What is the Relixx role in the familiar arena? and what are his skills?

hi can someone make me team?
poor yeti, dont have Toko.
how your Disbeleaf? toys?
disbelead a8
toys are ass
go full offense? idk LMAO no toko

wait for other opinion
i will give any1 0.5 nkt who solve my problem
ahh
in def team
but in ATK team u need focus to enemy position and main ATK use ...
ty sm man
try that and report us
you can try this setup for atk
p1 - Mite/Oro/Dururu
p2 - Disbeleaf
p3 - Alynx
p4 - Hippo
p5 - Ebon
Special Cases (if ebon is common in your server's lineups):
Mite: if this fam is in front of ebon. they will go 1v1 and ebon will prio mite for the charge. you can try what suits you better (full dmg or defensive toys)
Oro: if in front of ebon, tested a few times but for some reason oro ignores ebon and goes directly to the next fam in the back thus making enemy ebon dash towards oro but the movement is towards their side (utilizing hippo's skill making its 1st proc to hit 2-3 enemy fams + alynx' knead)
Dururu: if in front of ebon, it is highly likely going to delay enemy ebon's 1st skill cast since dururu will move towards enemy ebon then do 1 normal atk and then cast it's skill (needs decent toys tho to be able to delay enemy backline)
oro pos1 then dururu pos2 movement
the time enemy ebon charges back towards my oro. ez 4 fam target for hippo's torrent afterwards since enemy ebon got +1 prio for the charge since it's on def side
ok will try too
7 or 8+ to replace a10 Toko
ah sht
why not a3 
i rlly wanna use it but a7 way to high
want some? 😏
WP. good to know it worked. (enemy's toko and boar got isolated perfectly and the shirmp doesn't know who to prio heal afterwards
)
side note: gained additional info that ebon could also charge directly on the backline. i'll try experimenting on that as well
should I replace mite a7 with a7 dururu
totally dependent on you team comp and toys. if dururu + 4 other ranged fam (a bit risky since enemy tank/melee fam can go directly to your backline) otherwise a viable choice if paired with another melee or tank fam in pos 1/2/3/5 except for staghorn
Based on same awaken, mite will deal much more damage than dururu
but dururu can be usefull for countering hippo/toko at the enemy back line
Just made it from 6 to 9 on 50/50, now i'm safe to 10
dang so lucky. i spent 6k additional dias + dururu pass to make mine a10. good thing tho the hard mode also dropped a decent amount of 5s toy
no Dururu's 5s toy for me 
dururu's doing a good job so far in FA for me, just around ~100 pts away from top 100. I just need to rework and constantly shuffle my def setup
dang, what 6k dias? thats 20 more tickets, i even didn't spent any dias but only bought the pass.
and i got four 5 stars Dururu toys as well, yeah i feel lucky and hope dururu gonna doing well in FA.
+30 tix. all awakes tho were 100% chance until a10
Ahh i see, u are playing more safety
i failed once from 7 to 8, and the rest succesful.
@shell grail idk what to do man i still struggle againts ppl
in arena
should i just go for relix in hopes i get a3 and i get other fams?
IMO, no
so what can i do to not struggle anymore?
I mean, u shouldn't hope that a3 Relixx will push u up.
but u can try and hope for other normal 4s to strengthen your current lineup
if you were me you would pull for the normal 4 stars?
and relix as a bonus?
cause i can always get rellix from chest
so in the long run i can get like awakn 7 on it
cause that is my thought rn
yeah, I might
it kinda really hard for u cause no Toko
from 19k gems and 120 ticket i got 1 firelynx 1 kona 1 pitty relix @shell grail
stupid game
sheeesh good thing i didn't use any dias to pull. only used 73 pcs summon tix and got 1 dino only hahaha
i dont know what to do with 1 rellix
pvp maybe
found some a7 Relixx in action
he lose
@tawdry coyote, should I pull? my arachness not ready.
I hesitate now. xD
go for it
A10 that Relixx

I cant afford a10, only a7 maybe
thats nice
If you can't A7, don't get.
yeah, might go for a7
Relixx under A7 is like any other melee rare under A7.
Free food
My defense at 382 after awakening Arachnes
Hopefully login egg is also successful

1 Relixx is for pvp. Is like a Kona
A7
Welcome. It's a bit hard to read, could you send them separately?
Relixx is ranged* with burst and disable
relixx is range bro
Range is super short
Fam arena is making me sad
I have on KR
Been using since before launch here
Unless there's a difference with global
I cant get out of top 20% because of toko
Like Arachnes initially
Use A10 Shrimpaler
My shrimp only a5
Eh?
Im pretty sure hes range
I fixed
Relix is range
At same awakening it fulfills Kona role better in FA. In PvP should use both.
that's true...
Kona fireball can be dodged by rolling ? 😮
kona skill is homing
I can do that once
Only within a few frames can you dodge Kona fireball
99 times out of 100 you'll get hit trying to dodge

I'm gonna sleep soon
pull later?
Am I pulling later?
haha
Need 2 more copies then… only missing the crystals for it 
u have 27 days more
You can do it!!!
Mmk, just checked in KR, cat and Relixx range the same now.
Not sure if it is worth spending more on tickets to go from A5 to A7,
It is
Everyone else will have at least A7 in top 10
Many will have A9 if not A10 in my server
Next good thing we get is cactus
i would say save for cactus
this deck sometimes win and sometime loose
i am confuson
any ideas what to do?
or is ther enothing to do
'
learn your enemies, there is no general attack team which win all enemies.
I'll try relixx comp for 1 day, then back to previous one because the end of season is near.
might try more relixx comp after the begin of new season.
what a is your relix?
a7
same
old tickets + dias
best way i guess is to repeatedly atk those peeps that you are winning and prio atk those with kind of same team comp and also check if their team's CP is only for show (like equipping 5s ebon toy to a sore boar)
keep tabs or screencaps of your enemy team and cp as well so you can know if they are likely using the same team comp or not or if they probably upgraded some fams
@lunar fractal how your Dururu doing? I want to try him, but I dont have any spec. 5s for him. 
Idk to how inprove
doing its job so far for now esp on atk. but setup kinda sucks on def
the one's you often get and fits or complement each other
oro a9
dururu a10
toko a9
hippo a4
suiryu a6
A6 suiry does the job?
Not much but it kinda help. I use this setup to atk double water fam enemies or low toy bts setups
Oro is tank build. 2 5s jacket and 1 5s feather. The rest all got exclusive toys majority is 5s and a few 4s
@lunar fractal 
ran out of time?
Hippo and Auralynx are pretty low DPS, without frostbite, hippo does even less, so I would replace with Suiryū high awaken or the other RGB.
You can also just make spreadsheet of the cp of all individual familiars from the details screen at end of fight, compile all their familiars and know what they run based off of revealed cp and what if any awakening/toy changes occur.
I may or may not have done this for a while.

Only generic toys alter cp by their % raise in stats. Familiar-specific toys are flat increase because they do not provide stats that apply towards cp (e.g., +%dmg increase does not increase cp but +%atk does).
no just died quickly
replace hippo with suriyu?
My Toko is only awaken 6, and i reached Top38 like 2 weeks ago.
and now i replacing him with Disbelief when it reached awk 9,
yeah i'm late to play Nnk, but there is nothing to do for awakening Toko until rerun come,
we just better focusing on another healer atm... either Disbelief or Shrimpaler.
how to use disbeleaf properly man
it just dies out way to quickly at my end
@tawdry coyote i have a10 relix. i noticed his ATK multplier is low. is relix burst dmg really supposed to be this weak? it feels like relix needs an arachness/dino
i feel like even my a7 alynx is stronger. although relix has no toys yet
Using disbeleaf towards enemy's water familiars, and don't even facing mite, ofc you know whats the ending.
you can place him on where toko should be, they are same type healer support, just melee/ranged.
give disbeleaf some specific toys, better 5stars above for faster Cooldown.
no have sadly
if u want hippo , must use suiryuu
def tedious work but very useful. what we do in our KD is we send screeny of enemy comps alongside their CP for references
ohhh got targeted by mite before it could heal. needs specific toys or full def toys bcos front disbelief needs to proc heal before it dies to be that useful
my mite die very fast 😦
same haha. that's why i replaced mine with oro + def toys
Relixx has dmg scaling with darkness (+40% @A10) so is beneficial with more darkness on team, e.g., taurex, arachnes. It also has priority skill cast on cat. Otherwise, skill for skill, cat does more damage one-for-one.
poor Dino got forgotten
sounds right
relix is underwhelming ngl
I don't think it is.
It is excellent combo burst
i dont have arachness, all depends on Dino
relix is underwhelming. he needs another dark type familiar to complemenet his skill
its not like alynx cuz solo alynx' burst is high
in FA he is underwhelming. in PVP, very good
It has faster cast speed than cat though, that's what's important.
It's similar cast to Arachnes/Bunnybot. Same if not slightly slower.
What kind of team do you recommend for Relixx?
Taurex, Relixx, Tokotoko/Squibby, Alynx/Rimu, Arachnes/Dururu/Ursa
Not in that order perse
If you can make use of Dino then it casts after Relixx
Rimu is kinda hard to awaken with no banner, why haven't u recommended Dino in the team? Because it can't cast before Relixx?
I did say Dino later, I personally don't like it, because it usually needs generic toys to survive some.
It is fine to not cast before Relixx, even preferrable. I just don't think it is all that good, occasionally a niche pick at best. Others really like it though.
Cool, thanks 
I personally think it goes best in cc chain team, but others prefer it in a dark team.
I dont see him often, havent tried him either, dont want to waste jelly haha
this is the end of season, nobody risk to try something new that much.
maybe, u can see more at the beginning of new season
me too
yea agree
cool, good investment
reasonable as in 5+ or 7+ ?
A7+

Dear Netmarble,
On behalf of the Ninokuni player community, I am writing this letter to express my deep dissatisfaction with the recent balance changes made by your developers, specifically in the familiar arena and familiar abilities. I believe these changes were made without any transparency and without prior warning, causing significant harm to the player experience.
The lack of communication and transparency from the developers is unacceptable and causes great disappointment. Therefore, I request that from now on, all changes made in the familiar arena and familiar abilities be notified and thoroughly explained in patch notes or on the official game forum, so that the community can understand and prepare for these changes.
I would like to ask the Ninokuni community players to read this letter and support this complaint if they agree with it. I ask that you, players, help pressure the company to take measures to ensure that future balance changes in the game are made with transparency and are communicated in advance to the community, in order to avoid similar damage and ensure the best possible game experience.
I hope Netmarble understands the importance of communication and transparency for the player community and takes measures to improve the game experience for all.
I appreciate your attention and hope that the company will give a constructive response.
I appreciate your message, but I'm just a random player, lol.
what about going against this comp? what would you recommend?
what comp?
Taurex, Relixx, Tokotoko/Squibby, Alynx/Rimu, Arachnes/Dururu/Ursa
That's a lot of hypothetical optionals though
what is the best counter for Hypo + Puffu (both on the back)?
Soon top10% wew
I would say Stagthorn and Oro
also when attacking?
yeah, that 2 water fams already
but need to consider the other 3 and how high awaken they are too
Ive seen some Hippo attacking against another Hippo and the Attacking one casted slightly faster, so with the dislocation it kindda of canceled/denied the defending Hippo skill
is that a thing? and if so, how is the cast priority calculated?
that based on positioning if they are at the same awakening tier (like 0/3/7/10)
and their frontline too
Is there a place where I can read about cast priority and how long each familiar takes to cast?
sometimes i see enemy hippo cast skill faster than mine lol
while defending or attacking?
try search @tawdry coyote's in this thread
when im attacking
Oh boy, I've written so much about this and tested so much. In short, it is INCREDIBLY convoluted. There are some basic priorities for familiars, but they are subject to change based off of their positioning and the other familiars around them. The priority can further be affected by 1) size 2) range/melee (displacement/none) 3) target changes/interrupts 4) speed buffs (we don't have those yet).
If you scroll up where I explained to Miku and tested multiple times, you can see what I found.
Some basics are the following:
-
Tunnelers (e.g., Dururu) have the highest priority. (Poor placement can make them have same priority as #2)
-
Flutterby (always casts before Taurex)
-
Taurex•••, Bunnybot, Arachnes, Relixx, Tokotoko, etc.
••• Although Taurex is in the same tier, it's during cast becomes uninterruptible, while the others are interruptible up until end of skill animation where in those niche cases, the spell completes.
Thanks for all the likes, appreciation, but most importantly all the knowledge you shared with us. I may not be able to make it back. In the case this is true, I hope someone takes the reigns lest I return .
I wish the best to you all.
- Cheers! ♥️
? 😮
are you leaving the game?
Yo @shell grail check it out 
good for u
Im fighting 4 people from 1 kingdom for 2 weeks xD
quite the same to me here. xD
Good luck brother and thanks again for the tips 
What’s the best PVP familiar combo at the moment? Assuming that all are a7 at least.
Offensive: Kona + Relixx/Arach + Molten
Defensive: Crab + Ursa + Molten
Thanks. And sorry, I just realised this sub is only for arena 🫢.
But I’d like to know the same based on arena. What’s best combo for arena atm if you had free choice and all at least A7?
I know there is no ultimate answer. Just wanna hear some opinions.
A7 ursa
A7 staghorn
A7 hippo
A7 auroralynx
A7 bunnybot
Does Ursa cause frostbite to coop with hippo?
Ok no, looked it up. Isn’t it a waste of hippos ability, If there’s no familiar causing frostbite?
The thing is you basically gotta catch them all, enemies have different setups and sometimes a small replace works 😉
Wise and true but unsatisfying answer 😂
It depends on server population, whales, banner picks etc
Nobody can tell you whats best without knowing what ur up against
Mine is a glasscanon as well. I combine him with 3 supports. So I reach Top 10 sometimes.
Do you have enough dps to attack :O, mine sharing your lineup
I’ll dm you
ok
I have 3 rare egg selectors, who should I get? those are my current ones
Also, have enough jellys for almost +300 them, and 2 5* toy selector
hippo ?
i'd prolly go with hippo as well if in cases that most guys in your server uses BTS or you have decent awake on your suiryu(if you also have)
Nobody. Hold off until you get more rares from pulls and/or more eggs to get something to A7.
Hard to leave when I saw the responses while I was away for so little.

Jkjk
Will be toning it back some.
im trying to maintain at top100 lol
100% guarantee for top30, low chance to slip in top10 for me

u can do this, hopefully
Let’s pray 

Power of Dududu
Any good viable way to counter Dururu, atk and def
For def, I think can put one tank at the back.
for attack: my lineup is ebon toko hippo shrimp suiryuu. My backline able to tank and destroy him
We are very high spending server.
A10 Tokotoko, A10 Taurex, A9 Arachnes, A10 cat, A10 Bunnybot

gimme some
#14 currently, waiting for last minute risky run.
look like I made it
time to try some experimental lineups
u made it, gratz
Thanks for all the tips and advise

Arena fresh start
go go go
captured it when u can 
Finished 3rd! First time ever since day 1 🙂
Gotta enjoy it now 

Other whales even didn't wake up for battling arena
Yea and im 60 points ahead 😅
You prepared 5 tickets just before reset? 
the good thing is they won't considered to fight 1st rank in the beginning
except they have beaten you before
Yea kinda saved 3 that wouldnt matter much 😅 there's just 3 whales that beat me at the moment
And one is way down there to reach me now haha
Thats nice to lock up Top rank in our own server
any idea how to build or what should i focus. @tawdry coyote
im trying to help my friend ^ her list
First you must focus your inner peace.
Find your center.
Calm your mind and listen to your body.

Only then will you find peace of mind.
dafegk
Well obv use the Dururu until Taurex is viable
Make sure it has its toys and is gummied
like this ?
wont it be easy to destroy with 2 water 2 flame
oh
Oh wait toko only a5
op team, support as tanker
In her quest for top 300
Tbh
For rare eggs
She should work on Arachnes
Since it's already A3

that shxt hurts
rip
my biggestenemy, staghorn
Arachnes one-shot stag

Arachnes one-shot your family.
hope she can one shot hackers
i doubt she can, prob top10%
she would haves wipe if she want haha
I just let her borrow my familiars

So she can beat 梅干しちゃん。

At wich awake Arachnes becomes viable?
A7 but need support to keep alive. If you're in low rank you can get away with lower awake.
I made molten lion awk3 from select eggs now focusing on Arachnes. Thanks for the tip 👌
I hope lion was just for pvp
Yea ofc 😅
Cause that's not gonna help you for fa
This is my attacking team
Dino need support like Arach hehe
It's just personal, it has such low priority cast
I like his AOE push backs 😄
Arachnes is not support
It is very high dps
Like if you remember from my video
That would one-shot your dino before it gets to attack
Thats not what i meant. Dino needs support familiars just like Arach does 🙂
Ill show whats been beating me
Arachnes would 1-shot it without support
dururu is quite bad on defense team
Not really
I helped friends gain +20 rank with Dururu
Just have to know how to use
top2 server spender
Just Dino is terrible cause of prioritt
not for my case, lose 5 defense streak. 
That hippo smashes my Dururu
You get your attack off waaaaay too slowly
Dururu purpose is to interrupt and take another 1-2 burst
If you have no followup which you don't have
Then is wasted
Lol
Dino is not follow up
It is just a niche pick at best
My follow up is Dino for now, it works on my server xD
No i don't bro im listening and discussing it
I want to combine Drr with Relixx and a.lynx.
seem like lack of burst output
a7
That's cause Relixx is part of cc chain team
Is this my best defense?
but have to replace 1 of them, which one?
ebon and toko locked
and positioning, any suggestion?
I would swap Dino for Suiryū and hide it along with Mite
Where is your comp?
Hmm Interesting, why would you?
Cause Suiryū does highest DMG of RGB, is ranged and kills Mite
So Suiryu in front, Might right Dino left Toko middle?
All you do is switch out Dino for Suiryū
I'll give it a shot and wait for an atack, it won't take long 
I try ebon Toko dururu a.lynx relixx on defense. look bad.
You don't need Ebon with Dururu
You can but don't have to
ah, I see. more output instead
Would help to see your roster
but my a10 ebon, poor bull
There are a few Stag's high awk on this server
I mean, I have A10 bunnybot, cat, A9 Arachnes, A10 took/Taurex
on your pm
So it seems all your server top players
Would lose to my standard team
Which kinda sad
Top1 has 370k 
I barely made it to top10 by last minute run today, Bunny. xD
No wonder they get away with running literally anything
Cause nothing matters everyone weak and nobody knows that they doing
Smh
Exactly, @shell grail pointed me here and i jumped from being top100 to top10 😅
It's really really dead in Europe

The most picked banner here is lynx and some relix awk 10 too
Oh, I saw Shrimp's toy description changed. it increases allies HP recovery now.
did it change? last time I saw was about increased healing amount, didn't it?
It's same thing
Ported translation is poor
what's wrong with that stall comp?
your current team should be okay
Hi! Ive been following the advice you kind people give in this thread and managed to get top 138 last season as f2p. Wondering if you could give me some feedback on what I could improve.
Those are the teams I use and my familiars. Currently sitting on 4 rare selector eggs. Thinking about grabbing one Molten (for PvP obv) and making either Hippo, Stag or Arachness awaken 3. What would you guys recommend as a future proof move?
squibby
not much output for a3 anything on FA, but u can try Hippo.
or save the eggs
Is this a good team for def ? Or its better to use Boar ?
u can try, but if u want stall comp, boar is better. (a7 seem low)
I might replace Shrimp with suiryu or mite for more dps output.
Don't use A1 Relixx, that's the same as A10 pipsqueak. A10 Pipsqueak might even win.

Should have gummy A7 Dururu
I think it's fine. Might swap order Dururu top and replace Taurex with Mite or keep Taurex.
The Dururu also needs gummy candy, otherwise not enough diabetes to win FA.
Oh lawdy, I see other thread with Byrde comp with wrong units.

Dururu is so vulnerable to a10 hippo, makes me cry
You have A6 toys?
only a5 for dururu
Point of Dururu is just to absorb 2 burst and interrupt 1.
By then you should have taken care of front line.
If not, you lacking dmg
Did you see video I uploaded?
Might have missed it?
Dururu did his job but my front line died before his
@tawdry coyote @regal ledge
He also got a dururu which I cant kill insta cuz I got no hippo
This, he has no toys and A8
I didn't think I'd ever use cause was only A8 even after spending I've 4k diamonds
So combined his toys for other stuff
He has a10 hippo
Didn't matter
I use Suiryu?
Just like A10 cat
I can give it a try
I replaced dururu with bunny for attack on the same team and I won, not sure if its the same on defence
bunny cast before hippo
Yea I like dururu but seems like im lacking damage
Bunnybot is like .1 faster than Arachnes .1 faster than Relixx
Dururu is def
It is not meant to kill
If you want killer, use Hobgoblin
Or cactus when it comes out
I got hob
My other friend in AS got 1st with Hob in one of his later matches
whats the team comp?

I used hob for a while but coudnt bring me wins for long
It was just counter team
You seen other fam channel all talk about Bryde comp

We run that, we get kicked out of top 10 right away
lol yes bryde no luck
It's okay for top 100 top 30 sometimes
Or low spending server
Gonna be funny when we finally get Petal
Portal + Kona


they do well against relixx and cat?
When did you upload it? Let me have a look
I just tagged you
Yes
somehow its not showing up
This one?
Well look up power of Dururu
Yea he is good when fighting a non water team I guess
A8 no toys vs A10s is equivalent to fighting water team
Esp with Arachnes
Vs water you do same, just absorb some burst
Is Arachnes the highest dmg dealer?
I guess difference I have A10 Bunnybot, A9 Arachnes, A10 Alynx
Arachnes usually highest damage dealer,
Yea..
Unless I fight Ursa, then Oroboros is
Well depends on rest of their comp
There are times I'll still use Arachnes
If Arachnes is so OP, why Korean server don’t prioritise it?
IDK why, but i guess it cuz really old familiar, and there are so many dark fam continously showed up like Relixx, then Whiz, and new dark cat Rumi.
so, people just like build a new one instead of Arachness
Arachnes is melee, doesn't that make him die faster? Lol
@tawdry coyote Don't you get targeted a lot as rank 3 by rank1 and 2 players?
yes
rank 1 and 3 point disparity too high to matter
rank 2 doesn't win
or at least not high win rate
Korean servers DO use Arachnes when it got buffed, but it is only used in attack comps. if it is revealed, it is easily countered
After it got buffed, it cast faster
Whiz came with Sunshine, that did not change the meta in the slightest
I agree, yes, with Rumi there was a shift away from Auralynx, but not much of difference. If anything Gem made for a greater shift from the more common use of Arachnes, but its debuff still finds its use.
Sounds like rank 2 is the most unluckiest out of top 3?
Who do you attack to get points?
Oh cool, how do you find out? got acc in KR?
yes, and friend who top 1 also whale in KR
Whats the best KR server to get in to for familiar arena reference?
I play some in KR but it is depressing seeing all the anniversary stuff they get, while we get junk
LOL thats so true
I am not sure, I'd have to ask her. I wouldn't think the disparity is that enormous like in global, since they have server transfer.
for example, I am Jade Taurus in NA, and our server has been closed off for 3 months because we have a bot issue
YET
our top 10 has some of the biggest whales in all of global
used to have the #1 whale Karmic before he quit for example
isn't it a waste to quit when you have whaled in so much
Cool, let me know if you find out
I stopped whaling after Alynx.
just spending more casually and winning all my 50/50 on bunnybot and 33% and 50/50 on arachnes
Im not ready to give up my rank 1 lol
haha
maybe when transfer comes out, I'll come pay you a visit with my bunnybot team

Oh I would love the challenge!
hope you
hoppe you're ready for my A10 bunnybot with my A10 flutterby to shield my A10 pipsqueek

I wonder what would happen if I used the same team comp
aiming for it, I might have it when you are here hehe
Okay, see you in 5 years!
lol

There is new dev note, server merge lmao
great
more people who don't know how to deal with arachnes/bunnybot

Because most of them are f2p or low spender, can't relate to A7+ 
gimme more credit then that! A9 then rest A10, cmon!
funny how none in my server uses arch+bunny
merge. not transfer by choice

I think in KR there is a server transfer coupon, if i'm not wrong
or in global here, NNK will decide every server that will be merged?
yes, describe in latest dev's note (came with new code: NEWSTART2023)
discuss further in #💬|general-chat
this deck seem to be working well
is Squiby the best healer in FA?
yeah, should be
from which Aw. does it gets better than a Toko aw10 ?
7+, I guess
You are right. Global is no choice merge. In JP KR there was a merger but there are ALSO transfer coupons.
Currently at A10, yes it is a strong contender.
Two in my server use. 1 and 3.
