All hail Queen Lira!!!

F2P players! Have you used your hard earned gems in the recent rates up events? We have 3 more new units to summon, namely :

Fire Unit, Homusubi
Water Unit, Ice Keep Copra
Dark Unit, Half Blood Lira

All are top tier units!! Arghh.. but I only have limited gems!!! Ahh ... The pains of being a F2P player ... must not join the dark side! ^^

So after much deliberation, I decided to use 15 gems to try my luck and I managed to summon the following:

1st roll - Red Axe Michele

4 star / Oracle. Wow, not bad for my first roll, I think I can consider forming a rainbow team now. lol
Again, Unit over type  ... Unit over type.

2nd roll - Eight Blade Sefia !!!!
3 star / Guardian

I was shock when I saw this unit!! Never mind the type as her 6 star form is really worth looking forward too! I am v v satisfied now, it certainly made my day =)

Just look at that 6 star form for Sefia! =O

My 3rd and final row .... Half Blood Lira !!!

4 star / Lord
Gosh, can't believe my luck! A Lira in my 3rd and final row!
The lord type really makes her stats v v balance. She kicks ass in arena too (but I reckon u need at least 2 to feel her powerful presence)

And with this, Lira makes it to my first team (for normal questing). replacing God Tree since I don't really need healing for normal quests. =D

My current first team - Lots of leveling up to do for my Alice and Lira. XD

Don;t rush to evolve all your key units into their their 6 star form ... unit cost consideration!

Recently I managed to farm all the necessary evo materials to evolve my alice into her final form - Hell Keep Alice =D

How I wish i got a guardian or anima type. =x

Alright, can't really complain much. For a F2P player, unit is always > type. lol

I guess her offense and her attack cum healing SBB will be very useful to me in the long run. =)

Next, I immediately regret evolving Alice... as I just realize that I don't have enough unit cost to deploy her in my team!!! Arghzz!!

My unit cost exceeds by 1 if I add Alice in. ;_;

Condolences to myself. =(

I can only quickly go and level up so that I can have the required unit cost to add her back into my first team. =(

So I did 4 summons during the recent rate up event and I managed to get ...

I think my luck is not too bad this time round, not really the units I want but at least I've got no duplicates and the thunder bird!

Gotten the following using 20 precious gems. ;_;

Roll #01

Lava Phoenix/4 Star/Lord

Another healer unit added to my team! While it is quite a good unit, I don't think it is sufficient for me to replace my trusted God tree with this unit. ^^

Roll #02

Sky Angel Kushra/4 Star/Anima

Woah! A solid unit for my mono thunder team (still WIP)!
Her leadership skill and BB will definitely make her a popular unit for the coming frontier seasons!

At 5-star, her Leadership skill nullifies all status ailments ... and her BB is a 10 combo powerful Thunder attack on all enemies & boost to BC drop rate for 3 turns. =O

Roll #03

Gunner Douglas/3 Star/Anima

Yes! I finally gotten one unit!! Remember what I said on the earlier post on how good this unit is!
I wanted to get at least 2 but I decided to conserve my gems for the further units. As a F2P gamer, you got to make sure you don't go crazy and use all your gems in one event =x

Roll #04

Champion Aem/4 star/Anima

I stop here when I drew this unit. I know I shouldn't be pushing my luck any more ... lol
Aem is a decent unit but like Alice, his defense is too weak and will probably be the first to die if I put him in my team. =x

------
So, what I can I say, overall I am quite happy with my pulls. Would have been better though, if I can just get one more douglas. Must resist and not use anymore gems! ^^

Rare Summon up for the most powerful unit yet in Brave Frontier!!

For a limited period, from 6-8 Jun 14, 16:59 PST, Brave Frontier has up the rates for the following units!

Fire God Lava
Commander Mega
Gun God Douglas
Goddess Emilia
God Knight Will
Scythe God Alice

These are a set of good units so if you have some gems, I reckon now's the time to use them! XD

Everyone's going crazy over Douglas. It is indeed a solid unit ... His SBB can hit every unit 30 times!
If you ever need proof why this unit is so imbal then you ought to check out this video clip.

However, if you don't have the luxury of owning so many Douglas, fret not ... the Serins are capable of doing the same job as Douglas too! OKOK, the hit/spark counts are a lot lower but it's really not too bad considering you can farm her for free earlier on. =)

You can check out her powerful she is in this video clip. All hail goddess Serin!!!

The Sibyl Sisters Series - Paula ... I got lucky!

Today has got to be my lucky day. I managed to capture Paula within one try! =D

Best of all, she is an anima type! lol

Again, I got to mention that the Sibyl Sisters units are at best collector's item. As their stats are quite weak, my advise remains the same, just complete lv 4 dungeon if you can for the gems.

Personally, I felt that Paula's dungeon has got to be the easiest to clear. She don't hit like a truck and I don't see her spamming BBs on me. (Guess I got lucky lol)

Oh, do remember to bring along some holy water for the fight. Her BB can inflict curse status on your team. =x

The Sibyl Sisters Series - Eliza

So we have the 2nd unit from the Sibyl Sisters series in the vortex dungeon today. Have you managed to capture this cool looking unit?

As usual, Lv 4 is tough as hell. It is still manageable if you have a well leveled team. I think it's actually good if all your units have HP of at least 5,000. You need to bring along antidotes too as her BB can inflict poison status on your units. =x

Managed to capture Eliza after running the level 4 dungeon 3 times! Boy, was I lucky. Running level 4 is really very straining on me... lol

I got myself a guardian type ... not too bad but she's probably not going to be in my first team as her stats even at 5 star is really underwhelming. ^^

The Sibyl Sisters Series - Freya ... worth your time?

If I were to summarize it in one word, No.

It's not worth to spend your energy on Freya, the first unit under the Sibyl Sisters Series.

Freya is not a top tier unit. Her stats are at best mediocre and will not be in your first team for long. She is more like a collector's item.

However, I would still recommend that you try to clear the level four dungeon for the gem! =)

I was able to clear it today with my almost dark mono team and managed to capture Freya after 2 tries. ^^

To manage the level 4 dungeon, I would recommend a team of 5* units (level max)

I hadn't try to clear the dungeon with a rainbow team but any mono team less earth and dark elements should be able to clear the level 4 dungeon. 

I would also recommend bringing along Ores and seal as you will be needing the boost in attack and defense in your battle against Freya. 

You need a healer too as despite her weak stats, she hits like a truck. =x

If you are in need of paladin or fate stone, this is actually a good chance to stock up on them in this dungeon. Additionally, there is a small chance that you can capture Fire god and burst frog too!

So summoners! Good luck on clearing this dungeon and capturing Freya! 

Do share with me the team setup, strategies you employed to clear the dungeon. =)

New patch coming to Brave Frontier Global in Jun 2014?

Very excited over this update as I can finally evolve my Alice into her 6-star version! =D
