Phantom

What to do now?

So recently i got my phantom to 200 during the last 2x session that occurred. Currently unbuffed, i have 47k-52k range, 65% crit rate, 69% boss, 40% ignore defense(pdr right?), 3% status resistance, 35% min crit and 50% max crit. Buffed, i have 124k-138k range, 85% crit rate, (same %boss), 58% ignore defense, 48% status resistance, 35 min crit and 80% max crit. Now cubing wise, what should i go for for cubing? By this i mean which item should i cube in order and what should i get on them because i've gotten different answers on what i should cube in order and what i should get on them. I want to reach 2m-2m even though your damage is based on stats. Also what type of percents do i need to solo bosses such as all chaos root abyss bosses, hard magnus, hell gollux and other bosses.(If you dont know what i mean by % i mean %atk %boss %ignore defense %status resist %crit).

What to do in all honestly is to quit that phantom. Enjoy being weak forever. Don't even waste funding in it and sorry you got to level 200 on a phantom. Unless you want to play 1support foreva. If had to put a number somewhere, maybe 50bil+ for 400k range is very lucky, add another 50bil for an extra 200k range, $9=1bil. The last commerci trade will fell like a part time job if you can even finish it.

[quote=WowChowMein]Cube in this order.
1. Cane/Card - %Boss or %atk
2. Emblem - 2 lines of PDR and 1 line of %atk is ideal.
3. Equips - Try to keep the %stat of all your equips relatively the same while you're cubing. Don't spend all your money cubing one item to a high %. It's cheaper to cube 5 items to 6% then it is to cube 1 item to 30%.

Try to balance out your %boss and %atk as most people say you don't need over 250%boss. Rest of the lines for your potentials after you hit 250%boss should be %atk. Maybe have one line of crit. PDR should be in the low 90's for CRA.

210 Phantoms have 70% crit I believe. Get a Decent Sharp Eyes glove, Marksman rank SS card, BT Lvl 3 link.
70+10+4+10 = 94%. Add in a crit% line = 100%
There are other ways to get 100% crit but this is probably the most common way.

Getting any character to end game status is a long and expensive journey. Take it step by step, make rational decisions and do consult with people before you do anything (I almost cube away my 65%PDR 6%atk Emblem until my friend told me it was ideal). Most of all enjoy the class, once you get to 2m-2m it's so easy to solo most bosses it's not even fun anymore. Only thing I really look forward to now is Hard Mag/CRA and I'm sitting at 1.3m~1.4m.[/quote]
You are right about being bored....getting all mules *cough* to level 200....

Here is my equipment breakdown.

Fafnir Cane
35% Boss/9% TD/30% Boss
12% ATT in Bonus

Card:
40% Boss/9% ATK/9% ATK
Bonus 12% ATK

Boss Emblem:
9% ATK/30% PDR/4% All Stats

I have 2m~2.1 unbuffed range
about 88% buffed PDR (without Penombre)
311% Boss Damage
90% Status Resist
100% Critical (with Sharp Eyes)

My range and stuff is sufficient to do Hellux, Hard Hilla, etc.

My recommendation is to Perfect your Fafnir Cane over Pot

Potentials will cost more than buying a perfect scrolled Fafnir Cane for 11B+

Epic Pot and then work from there on Pot. Start with your Weapon first, Secondary (Card) and then move to Boss Arena. Aim for stats like ATK/Boss and a line or two of PDR from what I heard.

You should have a full Fafnir (cRa set) and at least a full Reinforced Set.

If you have funds, Superior Set is the way to go.

Invest in a extra pendant slot too... to wear 2 pendants. 2 Superior Pendants is nice

Tyrant Cape, Shoes, Belt are good ways to boost as well....hence need for two pendants

Heart? Need at least a superior Lidium for at least 72 atk.....

All your equips need to be at least 15% unique after

You should work on scrolling Fafnir and Gollux from there and enhancing...

Well...if you want max range....expect to spend alot of time in game or lots of $$$$$$$$$.

Good luck.
