Looking for suggestions on Mercurial Gauntlet, I'm at Fire lv 47 (wind is 40, and unlikely to get much higher, as I don't have any MUB 5* fire dragons), and looking for a way to eke out a bit more power to get it up to 50 before tomorrow. I'm fairly close on some attempts (presumably when I get lots of crits), but I'm really crap at 2FS patterns with Sword (can't charge specials with the right timing if I try), so I'm mostly button mashing and using specials as they come unless I need to save for a clap.
I'm using (all characters lv 80, all prints are MUB and most are lv 100 unless otherwise stated):
Xander 45MC, MUB Levi, 5.3.0 core, TSO and LC;
Elisanne 45MC, MUB Vody, 4.3.4 core, HoH & BBW;
S!Julietta 46MC, MUB Vody, 4.3.4 core, KFM lv 80 & FitF (lv 80 max);
G!Cleo 50MC, MUB Jug, 5.3.0 core, RR & EoL lv 80;
There are some avenues to power them up a bit:
1. I don't have Marishiten, but I have a 0UB Shinobi, who I could use all 4 of my sunstones on to get MUB for Gleo, but I like having some stones in reserve...
2. I have Karina at 40MC, but don't really fancy promoting her. I do have enough eldwater and some spare testaments to afford it. Other possible options are Sarisse 50MC, Lily 45MC, Ieyasu(?) 45MC, Laranoa 40MC, most of whom have 5.3.0 core weapons.
3. I might have enough consecrated water to level my unleveled prints, but there have been some recent upgrades to those slots, and I should probably invest in those instead (suggestions welcome, over 300,000 eldwater reserves, and plenty of keys).
4. I haven't used any fortifying or amplifying anything so far, but might consider using some on prints or on Gleo...
(5. Git Gud and master 2FS for Xander)
Any other suggestions would be great, still grinding it out in the meantime!
Edit: well damn, after about 20 failed attempts, just managed to pass with 10 seconds to spare. Crits work in mysterious ways. Level 48 here I come. Advice still appreciated!
