Arclight - Light Melody

A brand new quest series with some new cards thrown in. Yay.

LATEST UPDATE: Cleared all quests :)

The normal quests are only 5 stages long and only require 10 or 15 energy.  A high ATK/HP team can easily clear it before any of the enemies can attack unless you get really unlucky at stages with multiple unicorns.

The tech level starts to get a little tougher.  Stage 1, 5, and 9 pit you against 5 unicorns, each with CD1.  Fortunately, they have very little HP and no real defense to speak of, so a 5-chain can kill them all.  They hit pretty hard though; around 15000 a piece on top level!  Another issue are the flame enemies.  Hestia can hit for over 12000 damage on the LOWER tech level, and around 35000(!) on top level, CD2.  Focusing down the non-holy enemies should be top priority.  There are also princess enemies that can focus to do extra damage on their next attack.

Both the flame gnome and Liana appear randomly.  At top level, they both hit for around 23K+ damage; the gnome has CD1 and Liana has CD2.  They also have a good amount of HP, but it may be wise to quickly burn down any weaker enemies first.

I'm really starting to see the power of a high level Erinyes.  Mine has a skill level of 9, just shy of max,  giving the medusa eyes a cooldown of only 6 turns.

The boss hit for around 6000-7000 base on low level, and around 9000ish on top level, CD2.  Only skill I saw it use was dark rules, which is mostly an annoyance.



You can see the team I used.  I think going with strong thunder/holy ATK card may be better than Baal for more diversity.  In stage 1, 5, and 9, a 5-chain can kill all the unicorns as long as you make a 2-3x combo with it (their HP is so low, even just the 5-chain may do it, but I'd play it safe, since they pack a punch).  But if you get unlucky with the board and the right diamonds aren't on, you could be in trouble.



The boss (Lana) has an active skill is just an instant heal for 500% of it's RCR, which is just ok since its a defensive card with high RCR, though still not overly impressive, and time extension as its leader skill.  Kinda meh if you ask me, unless leveling it gives crazy amounts of RCR.

Also, you can see I got the rare drop and proceeded to work on her a bit.  You need 1 of those flame gnomes to evolve her normally, and then two more of them for the ultimate evolution.  The non-ultimate form only has Time Extension as the leader skill - this one is way superior.  The active skill is the same, though the unevolved original form has the 500% RCR heal like Lana.

The ultimate evolution requires flame gnome + flame gnome + light bolla + light kawsa + fire kawsa.  Farming the gnomes is a pain - I didn't think Liana would pop up more often than that guy.   Her leader skill seems like it'd be pretty good in the Balerion quest series :P
