Making a big comeback in JP! (+ current events in JP servers)

I am back to playing intensively in the JP servers!

It's been two years since Brave Frontier first opened its gates to Grand Gaia and JP is celebrating it REALLY WELL. Right now, there's a half-energy event for EVERY SINGLE THING IN THE GAME (useful for farming levels, evo mats and metal units), daily metal/jewel keys (2 of a type each day, alternating), Super Honor Summon (no ghosts), increased Honor Points during questing (40 for strangers, 80 for friends), fusion rates up, and 2000 Honor Points daily. These events will last until July 16.

They also have a 'get a unit you want' campaign. It's accessible in the banners (the one with the '1') and is available until July 10. Just fill in the form in the web page the banner links to (The question is: How did you find out about Brave Frontier?) and select the unit element, the unit you want, and the type you want the unit to be. That's how I got my Krantz (Anima).

There is also a daily 2 gem giveaway as a part of the 2-year celebration, and by the end of this event, it totals to 124 gems.

They also have a 10-day summer giveaway that totals to 25 gems, 1 Crystal set, 100 Medals, 4 Burst Frogs, 1 Burst Emperor, 5000 Achievement Points, 1 imp set, 1 Almighty Imp Alton, and 1 Sphere Frog...seriously Alim is great when it comes to giveaways.

Another new feature in the Japan servers is the fact that there are 2 types of Rare Summons. The Super Rare Summon gate contains units that have 7* potential and start at 5*. It contains units from Feeva's batch onwards. 1 summon costs 5 gems, but when it first came out, it was 3 gems per summon.

The regular Rare Summon contains all units prior to Feeva, and does not include units from the Super Rare Summon gate. It costs 3 gems to summon from this gate.

I am practically living the life in JP. All I've been doing is summoning from the Super Rare Summon gate when it was 3 gems per summon and whaddya know? I got loads of good units. Here's a breakdown of the great units I got in no particular order (evolved some already, and don't mind some of these units, I was on an evolving spree):

-Rivera (B)
-Regrard (B)
-Medina (A)
-Kafka (L)
-Raaga (O)
-Aaron (G)
-Claire (A)
-Feeva (G)
-Yuura (L)
-Reis (O)
-Yuura (A)
-Colt (G)
-Alpha (B)
-Alpha (G)

I actually also got an oracle Alpha but that went as fodder for my Quaid.

Now comes the next problem: COST.

Seeing that I want my Krantz to be ready for future content, I will be raising his level while placing him in my main squad until I get my Aaron to 6* near-MAX level. That way, I can focus on Krantz easily when I finally evolve him to 7*.

But before that I'll beat Cardes first because my cost will not be enough to hold these units if they hit 7*. That's what my Kafka is for.

And right now I'm farming the level 4 Monday dungeon because of the high EXP/EN ratio...literally got 1 level up in 5 minutes.

SO! I still need more friends in JP. If you play in the Japanese servers, here is my player data:

Bye guys!

My Top 5 Moments of 2014

Well, it's almost the New Year's here in Indonesia, so I thought I'd post something real quick.

2014 was a roller coaster. From constant games, to the Bali trip, to the IGCSEs, to moving to a new school, 2014 was far more eventful compared to 2013.

So, I would like to share with you guys my top five moments in 2014.

5. Shipping in Real Life?!

...YES, I keep on forgetting to tell you guys about this, but why not do it now?

So, my class had this little Secret Santa thing going on in the early days of December. Guys give to girls and girls give to guys. Then on the last day, we reveal who we were giving to.

Turns out the person giving to me was a classmate of KirinMax's back when he was in old school, SMN, which happens to be my current school.

Cue the shipping from my cousins and KirinMax.

*sigh* Guys, come on...there's nothing wrong for a girl to enjoy the company of a guy as friends right?

Not to mention that my cousins LOVE teasing me whenever I talk about ANY guy...

I'm in for a whole trainwreck of a ride next year huh?

4. Meeting KirinMax in real life, basically the making of the Brave Frontier group

Trust me when I say that KirinMax is a pretty awesome guy. Apparently he got my ID from my math tutor, whom we shall refer to as his IGN 'Chery', and he made a group for Brave Frontier players to talk about the game and to get random help from groupmates. That's our first official meeting where we actually COMMUNICATE.

Then, it moved on to private chats about...Vocaloid, mostly. We're pretty huge Vocaloid, anime, and video game geeks, and we happen to be in the same grade too, so yeah.

More people started to join the group nearing the A-Maths IGCSE exam, two in particular being constant contributors to the discussions in the group. They are Chery's friends, Tails and CWHLGL.

Then came the camp, where I met KirinMax, Tails, and CWHLGL of them in real life. Definitely one of the funnest camps I've ever been to. Sorry guys, but the Bali trip doesn't even COMPARE to this short yet enjoyable camp.

A lot more of Chery's students joined the group soon after, and now the group is always full of conversations...in fact, this group helped me go through life in my old school, where I was constantly ignored.

So...thanks guys.

3. Hitting 5000 pageviews here

MY GOD. I was so shocked when I saw 5000 views on this blog. I mean, Brave Frontier and video game blogs IN GENERAL don't get too much attention, but...wow.

Seriously, THANK YOU SO MUCH for checking out my blog!

2. Getting ALL the GGC Spheres as of now, AND beating Creator Maxwell in a span of around two weeks.

YES PEOPLE. This actually happened, and is the reason why I stopped updating for a very long time.

I was maxing up my Maxwell because I really wanted to optimize her damage output potential with maxed out stats and an SBB 10 Endless.

That quickly changed in favor of quick Brave Bursts with my Lucca lead, however. She's still a good support unit though!

As for the GGC spheres, I have to say Dandelga was the easiest (no gems used), Leomurg was pretty annoying, Drevas was a huge marathon boss, Batootha was pretty easy because LUCCA, and Lexida was pretty easy because LODIN.

1. Being able to make friends with people my age

This has been an ongoing issue for me. Not only are my old classmates pretty stuck-up, they really dislike allowing people into their small, exclusive group of friends. At least, that's how I see it.

Which is the reason why I was shocked that I hit it off so well with KirinMax in the first place.

It made me realize that there are people in the world that are unlike my classmates. There are people that are accepting, and there are people who share my interests.

In my new school, I hit it off pretty well with most of my classmates, along with the underclassmen.

Of course, I still keep in contact with my friends in my old school: Wolves, Shiwi, Xemphis, Jervan, and Sean being just a few of them. And with the rest of the group too, of course.

So, if any of you guys are reading this...thank you so much. Really.

So....HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!!!

Now...if only the people would stop firing these fireworks...people have died recently in the AirAsia QZ8501...

Let's spare a few moments to pray for them...for their peace in death...for their families, friends, and everyone affected...and so that a tragedy like this doesn't happen again...
