Valiant Force Forum

Hi MIkan! 

i'm just wondering, does samurai shizu aura also activate when she hit multiple enemies? let's say there are 4 monsters and she attack once but she hits them all, does that mean there's a chance to activate the aura 4x? 

For now, since i don't have samurai shizu, i replaced her with warlord freya.. i'm not satisfied with chain attack though, my highest is 8 chain attacks which is kinda low compared to yours lol..  anyway, i love your guide!! 

SM Shizu cannot trigger her own aura as it says "Others" not "Everyone". Her aura works like this,

Code: Select all

When Others in Aura attack, there is a 30% chance to:
Trigger attacking unit to attack with 85% of their ATK.

This means that if X unit is in SM Shizu's aura and X unit attacked, there is a 30% chance that X unit will attack for 85% of their ATK. It also means that the triggered attack can trigger the aura again since it's considered attacking.

I have another build variation for Freya. I will add alternative builds later on, it's just that I'm busy playing another game aside from Valiant Force.

And thanks for the support!

woah! ok, that clears everything.. thanks mikan, looking forward to your next guide! 

Next guide won't be really coming soon but do look forward to it. The thing I mentioned about Freya is for this build, another variation. I will update this guide soon.

My vincent can only reach 6k damage. I wonder if it is enough to kill the boss, obviously just pure damage, 6k damage can't do much to clear within 5 turn where after that things became nasty(cause the wings will start to give lots of trouble)
But I want to ask if the amount of triggers can overcome the lack of shear damage?

Hi, if it's just for trial clearing, it should be enough. 6k ATK can be inconsistent on clearing legendary but it is possible to clear with good RNG. My guildie has cleared all trials with a 6.6k ATK vincent using this build.

Wow,
Thats good new to me, but ya, need faith in RNG to hopefully vincent can hit the hardest. The bad part i facing now is the auras are not facing correctly. Good new is, i realised that leon is pretty tanky even without gear. (Took me 3 4* hero to change to the correct aura, gosh *heartpain*)

Goodluck on the clearing attempts!

Mikan Mikan!!! Thanks to you!!!! I cleared trial 2!!! With somehow the most not optimised team ever!!
My vincent is barely 6k, Kahana have barely 2k def(not +2 also, no more hero to train him) and Leon without any gear(ya I forget to hear him before going in)
Spend 5 stun potion, 2 blind and 1 healing potion(Rng have not been nice because trigger not alot to kill the wings in time) but I finally got the 75 gems!!!

Thank you for your guide, gosh, this is quite scary that with some underrated heroes, we can clear fireland 6.

Congrats and good job~

3rd Trial easily cleared. The healing factor trigger faster than the crit hit element. Even though I require stun potion to keep the head locked in, but with a heavier DD ally. It became very easy.

Looking like this, I can use this build to clear legend story act 4? Cause i have some difficulty in clearing them

P.S I am a happy man now.. All thanks to Mikan, and thank you to all the heroes i sacrificed to upgrade these 2 heroes.

This build roflstomps a puny boss such as Balthor. So yes, this should clear L. Act 4. Just pull Balthor with Leon and destroy him with Berserker. 
Also, congrats for completing all trials~

@Thread: Updated with the first other build variation, featuring Samurai Kai.

Very nice build! Just one question now. How to obtain that 4* vampiric rune? Arena shop doesn't have it and the marketplace seems to only sell 3*skill tickets. Am I missing out on another possible avenue to get 4* skill tickets? Many thanks in advance!

Sometimes marketplace sells a 3-4* Skill Rune Ticket. Though my vampire runes mostly came from Ronan event, I literally bought all those 3-5* Rune Tickets and it gave me 2 4* Fury Vampire Runes. 3* Vampire Rune also works if you don't have a 4* Fury Vampire, just lesser ATK.

ah ok i'll keep a lookout for them in the marketplace or next event! thank you!

I actually fuse those away, cause i never though vampire rune can be this useful. Gosh..
Lucky i still have 1 that is tag with health, better than nothing.

Some people have messaged me on my opinion on Drake. I'm just gonna post here so hopefully, people who are curious can just take a look here and get their answers. Yes, Drake is very good for this build and can be a replacement to BK Vincent. There are 2 5* advancement of Drake, I will list down the pros.

Gladiator
- The skill is good at removing that initial buff the mega boss has which increases DEF immensely, the 3-turn sleep on the other hand is very potent on arena as it is an AOE skill in a line
- Has lifesteal aura that can make the trigger chances of this build increased to 4x if he's used as the main DD

Dragoon
- Same as Gladiator, the skill conveniently removes buffs which is useful on the mega boss, it also has a 2-turn heal tick which can potentially trigger his own aura and start a trigger fest
- His aura is extremely potent for this build, with vampire rune, 2 lifesteal aura slaves and SW Kahuna. He has a total of 3x chance to trigger his aura and 3x chance to trigger Kahuna's aura

All things considered, Gladiator is your PVP pick and clearly Dragoon is the winner for the SDD trigger team build. 6x chance to trigger self to attack again translates to 12% fail rate. It is absurd yes, not sure if it will get nerfed sooner or later.

Update: I just recently learned that Dragoon's jump skill hits 3x3 cells around his target tile. Dragoon should be your pick for both PVE and PVP.

Update 2: After testing a Lv30 Dragoon Drake on Elemental Chaos Legendary and Arena, I find that this unit is actually quite underwhelming and needs alot of investment to be comparable to a BSK Vincent using this build.

As for those curious if the original BK Vincent setup can clear the current mega boss, yes. I have a guildie who already cleared it using BK Vincent.
