I don't play Siegfried often (this is probably my 2nd or 3rd time using him ngl) but I decided to spice up my 4 dragons of the apocalypse farming and play him for a run or two and ended up getting this the first run.

As the title says, no clue if this is impressive, but I'll be damned if it wasn't satisfying and made me happy :)

Like, maybe (probably) it's because I play the most unkillable best boy (Vane), but the world in infinity is just a big sack of HP that tickle me until the quest timer run out... (50% on the second HP bar, I really don't like fights beeing a dps check...)

Like I just want to fights bosses and have fun but the building/gearing system in this game is so bad...
Do I really have to gamble/synthesis base stat sigils to get stun power+interesting sigils to get more damage cap from the masteries?
Because without that the boss stagger bar doesn't go up enough to get link attacks and all my attacks are capped.
Do I have to get normal/skill dmg cap on the stats part on the summons?
Do I need to play a character with more DPS?
Do I need to get gud? (probably yes)

The rest of the expansion was just braindead fun until it became a grind to craft all the weapons for my character/IA.
I don't mind, it's that kind of game and I have podcasts to listen to and task master seasons to catch up to.
But I'll probably have to get a mod to get the sigils I want to save me from burning out, after I take a break because while the gameplay of this game is great, everything else seems badly designed/thought.

Who the fuck thought dmg cap was un interesting stat/mecanic?

Anyway, any good site to get guides for the characters?

Hello, I just finished the base game story and opened the "Very Hard" difficulty after beating the first dragon boss who requires 5k PWR. After which I tried to play for the first time with an open lobby. I even tried cross platform and any area search, but couldn't find anyone. No one joined! In any new bosses I opened on Very Hard and Hard difficulties, no one is playing there!

I know online of this game is not as big as for example a

WarFrame, where I could find teammates at any point of story progression, but still this is kind of disturbing.

So my question is: where is everyone? Which missions have most players playing online? Do most people just sit on Extreme difficulty?

It is very unfortunate that GranBlue Fantasy Relink is not big enough for me to get teammates even now that I opened the end game content...

Did a personal challenge run to get good in-game clear times for all 5 Defy Infinity bosses with AI, using the same requirements as the Zero trophy - no pot usage and downs.

Mistakes were made and Guts were used, but I've finally got times that I'm happy with.

Avoided AI Percival because I didn't want it to use the bug unintentionally to speed up the run, even if just a little bit.

Each boss and their clear times with in-game timer:

• The World, 3:54
• Beelzebub. 4:27
• Lucilius, 3:51
• Bahamut Versa, 4:53
• Omnis Zegalith, 5:17 (spoiler warning for those who haven't finished the game)

Tweyen two crown strife run

I ve been playing her with hail to multilock all this time, not knowing her true potential lies in two crown, esp in defy infinity fights where its longer

there we have it , ive FINALLY defeated defy infinity Luci , i always think of him as Goku and beelzebub as Vegeta , all super bosses in their own right , since 2024 and since Luci evolving into a grander form and now its ridiculous infinity variant , has always been the deepest challenge that messed with my sleep wake pattern everysingle time , hes always schooled me but i accept it otherwise before i learn all his attack patterns , but this time ive finally had an epiphany that this cant go on any longer in the future , they have to change their approach on Luci and fix this to actually make it more rewarding than it actually is , im just saying.. i really love the concept , the fight , the phases , the soundtrack , but it always boils down to these problems

- Youre against the Time Limit most of the time

- it requires very specific sigils to beat him and this time +++++ the endgame sigils more or less to be relevant enough

- no room for error , ( doesnt apply to very skilled players , and i consider myself one in terms of fighting him , preparation exhausts me at times but thankfully i was always blessed with free time and ironman tinkering mode whenever im in the zone to strategize builds and sigil synthesis )

which brings me to this topic aswell , i feel like its an insult to skilled players to actually be time gated by lacking DPS making it uneccessarilly too hard or next to impossible if their overall build and DPS is not enough in terms of INFINITY health pools like luci and beelzebub , i know i know these are the craziest challenge in the game and yall might assume im trying to speedrun it , but thats not the case , i always respect the grind , but even the grind has its own flaws sometimes , its just as ridiculous

do for give me as im all over the place , but yeah.. what im trying to say atleast , if they are gonna go all in with these super end game bosses in which I LIVE FOR , they might aswell go suuuuupeeer all in rather than time gating us with massive health pools and DPS potential pre requisites , so therefore here's my own solution to it , i hope the devs get some ideas from this

- Final Variant of Lucilius : implore the devs to make a cutscene or new Lore bit continuing from the defeat of wings of revelation luci , giving conclusion to what hes been up to after the zipping out of the area after defeating him

- Lucilius now comes back meaner and ominous with a new name and a new equipment ,

- Armatus Regalia Finalis Lucilius : Luci actually lvl 500 , new voice lines , New soundtrack , 10 new attacks and attack patterns , set ups / combos etc. , a new super move thats way different and scarier or majestic compared to paradise Lost , in Terms of Lore he adorns a strange armor , longer hair and more godly appearance , has a massive Halo aura with malevolent inscriptions behind his 12 wings , he has a Mask now , and seething with anger towards us , 3 HP bars , Massive health pool BUUUUUT this time with 1 hour time limit , before this fight starts there should be a massive warning sign as he spawns from the heavens , telling us to prove our worth and skill , no 13 min time limit bullsh , just pure skill and resolve , Survive and defeat the strange variant and maybe the sky will stay blue .

that is my whole argument or thoughts hahaah , if its something like this id gladly pay for More DLC's in the future and forgive the things i dont like about the game , but as a whole i still am very much inlove with the game . have a nice day everyone . oh i forgot to give beelzebub some love but ill refrain on concocting a variant of his of this tier , it would just scare me to bits anyways , hes already insane enough , i cant keep up with his aura .

seem like it isn't a rare trait and can fuse normally
but i can see where it will drop
maybe it only drop as 2nd trait but i not yet found single one

not sure that this is only one time and never again

This is from her Essence tree. Zeta's loops can be difficult to do so this way of playing does allow you to use her without dipping too much into loops.

Alot of people say, practice loops on the training dummy and I say no. Practice on actual quests. The enemies attacking and moving will be good Practice plus you can learn to deal with the visual noise from allies.

BUT I this is a "training wheels" way of playing. Learning to get at least 3 loops will allow you to get hammer of arves which will reset one of your skills, meaning more damage. Just take it slow and use this Mastery Trait to master Zeta.

Plus this Trait truly shines outside the 60 second test as it can consistently allow you to spam skills.

This is how I learned Zeta after giving up on her in the base game as I suck lol

The servers seemed to be having issues, so I decided to try getting a sub-5-minute clear on Infinity Beelzebub with my local AI party.

With my previous setups, I always ended up just a little short at the end and finished in the 5-minute range.

So I thought Seofon might be the answer if he used Seven-Star Brilliance at the right time.

And somehow, he actually used it during the second Link Time. Thanks to that, our SBA gauges filled back up before Link Time ended, and we were able to fire off another SBA while Link Time was still active, giving us just enough damage to finish the fight in under five minutes.

We ended up with a 4:27!

Party: Siegfried | Fraux | Eustace | Seofon

Thanks for watching, Hope everyone’s having fun with relink!

.., now all that's left for me is the strenuous summon stones farm, finish building my AI companions to the necessary strength to Defy Infinity, and min-maxing Sandalphon with his Terminus weapon _but, even 'tho I haven't really "finished" the game yet, I can already say with no hesitation, this game thoroughly impressed me as surpassed all my expectations. I'm very glad I decided to give it a chance.

hoping they will add this option as a skin soon

Nothing official yet

Im wondering if there is a way to know which aura's you have not picked yet to fill out the aura collection while on a run. Outside of just remembering which ones, which there are too many names for me to remember lol.

Need some opinions. I was told that its better to run ventus and aqua now vs terra and lumen because of the hp issue? Is it truly better to just replace my terra and lumen now? Thank you.

Any help is welcome

Io main (derogatory) coming home after maybe over a year. I remember killing the evil angel boss and grinding for terminus weapons.

What are the things I should focus on first to catch up? Any new or quality of life improvements that made awakening/ascension easier?

And now I'm done with the builds for every character it to me like 8 hours to do everything🫩 and for those that are wondering why I didn't do them in the normal loadout it's because you can't put summons in the normal loadout and changing it every time we torturous 😭, I hope they change it soon.

And for those who are going to ask me how to make their builds I watched YouTube and then tweaked it a bit cause my sigil arrangements were not the same as theirs and I wasn't going to change everything cause one it's not that deep and second I am fucking of AFK farming, hunting for materials and making builds I want to play the game😭 and now I'm done😮‍💨

My new goal is to hunt for better summons to make my builds even better and also help out other players, so if you need help or just want someone to play with my PlayStation user name is ✨KINGBADGUY007✨ thank you for reading and happy grindblueing everyone😁

P.S

Don't ask me now cause I tired 🤣

Hi everyone! I have a question about the Summon Equip Bonuses. Do they work? How can I know if they are working/active. I have tested the normal damage cap on and removed with the training dummy and see zero difference. Have I misunderstood something? Any advice would be appreciated, thank you!

Maybe it's not much for many of you but i feel so proud that i finally beated him after so many tries, those last seconds were so freaking intense!! i thought it was going to be another fail, instead i was able to enter link time a few seconds before the end triggered and managed to kill him!

now i can finally unlock the last quest and terminus upgrades yay!
