Guided Fate Paradox - a new use for divine summon

  • 9 years ago
Normally, I don't use the divine summon feature as I never saw a point in it... until only just now, 950 hours in. In fact, what I have going now will make the time I spent making a single level 4 item now the time for 2 level 5 items, about 6 times faster. This means, what I thought took around 400 hours to make a level 5 would be done in around 70. The basic process isn't obvious, but at the heart of it is Zombie Land (map 2-1 or 2-2) and advanced martial arts.

1. Use the usual method of Zombie Land to power up equipment up to the point where the burst point is at 360 for level 1 (rank 4) items or 440 for level 2 and higher (rank 5 or 6) items. For best results, get a total of 18 of each type of equipment. That is, 18 helms, 36 arms, 18 legs, and 18 miscs. This part will take a fair while to do but it's really fast early on. Be sure they are in burst status at the 540% burst point.

2. Put 45 of those items, 9 of each, for the divine summon. Another 35 should go on the angels, all of them. The other 10 should go in your pouch.

3. Obtain 50 dive items from the total level king.

4. Rush through the first 30 floors of advanced martial arts. This one is easy enough to handle, and quick enough. Floors 1 to 10 have no enemies that pose a hazard. Just quickly rush them. Floors 11 to 20 only have Xiao, a ninja cat, as the most troubling but the rest are of no concern. Floors 21 to 30 have spiky (5% damage return with a regular attack - use skills), and shield snail (just annoying) as the hazards. Basically, as soon as you see the normal gate, use it and ignore the other enemies. Do not strengthen the equipment when you reach the caravan after floors 10 then 20. Just quickly advance to the next floor.

5. After you get to the third caravan, after floor 30, advance to the next floor as usual. However, this time, use the dive item until you reach floor 80 and its caravan. Do not attempt to bash the enemies during this - you're just wasting time.

6. At the caravan of floor 80, strengthen the burst equipment, including the equipment in the divine summon and on the angels. Don't do it with Renya's equipment though - he'll be the one bashing enemies so he should have the powerful stuff.

7. When done strengthening all 90 items, 9 boosts in one go (!), escape from the dungeon via the caravan.

8. Use Zombie Land, again, to get all this highly boosted equipment to burst again, but don't strengthen anything.

9. Repeat the run through advanced martial arts, rushing the first 30 floors, then diving to floor 80's caravan for another 9 boosts in one on all 90 items.

10. Repeat this process once more. At that point, the equipment will be maxed out (do one more round if you use 440 or 360 for for the level 2+ or 1 items). You'll have enough maxed level 1 items to make 6 level 2s or 2 level 3s (after processing the level 2s in this fashion).
