So am I screwed or can I work around this ?

[Rov]

so basically I don't really know what to do to make a team really, I ve been reading and watching and formed a conclusion that is kinda better to pull a little and just amaas modules to spend on mirror to make egoshard and pick up wahtever chars I want to make a team based around a status correct ? (that was at least what I understood ). Well until I done my research I was just pulling for chars and I ended up getting all the kurokumo and blade of lineage ids ( with exception of faust,sinclair and mauresalt). My current team is kurokumo heathcliff, ishmael, ryoshii with blade lineage salsu for don quixote and ying sang ( before I ve been using kurokumo gregor and hung lao instead of the blade lineage chars but that doesnt help me make ego resources for ryoshi WAW ego (contempt, Awe).


Based on these char and what I read I am supposed to go either for bleed status or poise buff ? I love bleed status in general in those kind of games so I decided to pick that; and after a lot of researching and stuff I discovered that for ids I need don quixote and rodion from la manchaland (and maybe gregor ), and as for the supp I should go for like ying sang (the painter id I think it was). and as for the EGO I am supposed to get gregor if I have his waw and don quixote ego .

My conlcusion for the team of 5 for the story is I want to go like kurokumo ishmael, heathcliff, La manchaland rodion, don quixote , and preferabily ying sang the painter id or gregor from la manchaland and use ying sang as a support out of combat. As for the 6 ppl team I want all of the above. (Idk if there are stuff that requires more than 5-6 sinners apart from where I just started to see that in story sometimes I need 7 ).

I just want some help on what should I do cuz I feel like pulling is useless and I Want to just play at mirror and get as many boxes of ego shards I can , and maybe make a team with what I already have and what I possibly can get.

It's a singleplayer game, so it's quite hard to actually screw up. So either throw some $$ or grind some meta units, and it will work out somehow.

Yeah, dispensing IDs and EGO is basically the best way to get them, even more so if you buy the Limbus Pass (it can basically triple your shard earnings). People usually recommend saving Lunacy for the Walpurgisnaught event, which feature the closest thing we have to limited units for now.

Some people also use Lunacy to refill their enkephalin *once* a day, as doing so *once* will barely dent their Lunacy reserves while giving a full energy refresh daily.


Teams are mainly based around one of the main 7 status effects (Tremor, Burn, Bleed, Sinking, Poise, Rupture, Charge), that's correct. And luckily, you can use and focus on any 1 status and it'll be viable for 99% of the content available, excluding the very rare boss that just says "♥♥♥♥ you for using this specific status".

There *are* also teams based on matching certain colors/sins, or teams based on using characters of the same faction (such as a full Blade Lineage team, or Full Kurokumo team), but even these teams usually also follow one of the main 7 status, like Poise for Blade Lineage Faction team, or Bleed for Kurokumo Faction team.


Yes, based off of what you say you currently have (Kurokumo = Bleed, Blade Lineage = Poise), making either a full Poise team or full Bleed team would be the most efficient use of your resources if you want to create a full team. And if you do want to go for Bleed, go for it! It's a good status.

As of now 7 is the max for units you'll use at once, though there hasn't been a fight that used 7 sinners at once for a while now.

Latter. No. You're not screwed. Yes. You can work around.

What Reptiloid said. It's a single player game, you can't go wrong with anything here.

Can't go wrong with sticking to a single status type for the story fights. Went with the Burn team [Liu Assoc. Identities[ for the entirety of Canto 4 to Canto 5 before getting several Sinking IDs for Canto 6. If you got Seven Assoc. Outis, I recommend her for story fights because of her innate -2 Clash debuff on her target, making fights a bit easier.

Anyways, for MDs, stick to a status you prefer, grab those IDs and Gifts of your preferred Status, collect & fuse the necessary ingredients for the Tier IV Gift of that status and you're good to go. If Hard Mode is... Hard, stick to normal mode and grab your 250 Lunacy per run.

If your Sinners aren't leveled up enough, don't torture yourself in Hard Mode. Focus on the Lunacy and BP [Yellow Crates].

Most of the time, you won;t be spamming EGOs in MDs since the Gifts are going to be busted anyways. If you're going Bleed, grab the Red Bug and Wolf Gifts [Wound Clerid and the Stuffed Wolf] and enhance that Bug to max on the first Rest Stop.

Wound Clerid ++ gives you additional 5 Potency and 1 Count per Coin/Wrath Skill Coin. This is the backbone of any Bleed team in MD since it sets up the Bleed Potencies and Counts fast, especially on Bleed IDs.

Get the other Bleed Gifts at your own pace, fuse or buy them, whatever works.
IMO, Bleed is better cause it's direct HP damage. Every attack coin used by the enemy, whether through clashing or attacking, they shave off their HP by Bleed Potency. Feels amazing to watch an enemy bleed to death during a clash.

Feel free to experiment what the other EGO Gifts in MD do, read their effects and what IDs you can deploy to use them effectively.

Recommend this spreadsheet if you need help in learning what Gifts you can get and what fusion recipes you can get too.

apart from the ides , regarding the mirror that what exactly I ve been doing . good to know I can combine just as correctly as I can and yea I am also experimnenting other ego gifts such as the ring that heals ppl when I have 3 or more pride res which I do , and the slash buff gifts for certain chars that benefit of it. I am still contemplating if I should use for the story kurokumo ishamel heathcliff ryoshi and blade lineage don quixote and ying sang just so I can spam the ryoshy contemp awakening or just go full bleed and have lower chances to make necesary resources for the ult . ( the ult is aoe and deals termendously ammount of dmg and also has corrosion ) .

yea that he plan for me to ammas modules, spend once a day or twice a day for replenish and transform them in modules. I am just preparing myself for the next season since from my understanding this season is close to ending and I dont want to spend money on a bp I cannot fully complete. Best course of action based on my maths is to buy two montly 7 dollar thingy then buy the bp and also enjoy a total of 2600 free lunacy from the monthly and another 1300 from the bp. So doing this every month should be good and any dude that has a decent work can kind afford it at least once 2 seasons.

We still have Railway and another event coming up, not to mention the 2nd Anniversary Event. If I remember correctly, the Arknights collab is supposed to be on August...? But it's sometime this year, probably mid or near late end of the year.

Anyways, what I'm saying, the current Season won't be ending anytime soon. Maybe 2 or 3 months..? That's not including the "dead weeks", as many would say, from the Standard ID releases. Liu Assoc. Yi Sang <3 But whatever works for you, man. Just don't spend more than what you can, won't want you to regret spending much than necessary.

according to the roadmap there isnt much time left until next season

Ain't trusting that completely; it's only a roadmap, a guide, not a freaking schedule of events. We already have the reruns before railway arrived and we have another week or two where a Standard ID Banner is up.

All I'm saying is that, I don't think this season will be ending next month or so. Each event takes like 2 weeks, not including any Standard/Seasonal IDs being released. We have an Anniversary Event coming up, we have Railway, we have the Sweeper event and there's Liu Yi Sang Banner. yeah, yeah, ID Banners take 2 weeks. Bite me if I'm not telling the truth here.

That's 2 months. They also do the "Last ID of the Season that is a Preview of an ID next Season" Banner, which was Zwei Ish last Season and Oufi Heathcliff for the previous one.

So probably 3 months. There. 3 months. Maybe 2 and a half.

to be honest, I don't think it's a roadmap. their first roadmap had dates, this doesn't - it's essentially just a list of ideas that will appear. would appreciate it if they actually gave an estimation like before, I'm sure there's not that many things going on in the planning for that to be impossible if they have been preparing all of this. the time frame I made dictates that the season is likely going to fall somewhere middle april or earlier april.

[Yerc2]

Someone mentioned a recurring event called Waluigi's Night.
Are the limited identities and EGOs in that banner better than others?
Are the gacha rates any better?
How long until the next one?

Yes. They're better. No. Rates are not better. 3 months until next.
