You can repeat battle Karzhan Remains and all second awakening dungeons through the Repeat Battle Tower just as you do GB10. Just go to the dimensional hole tab. You need to complete a stage once before accessing it as a repeat battle. The deal with Fran is that she does a lot of useful things for a new player but not the greatest. For example she gives early access to a speed leader skill, the most widely used in the game, but it's only 10%. You should rune her with much more speed so she moves before your other units. She needs to apply her immunity buff before the enemy can attack your units, and apply attack buff before your units attack. Additionally she is super easy to rune, as she only really needs Speed and HP to function in the PVE dungeons you want to use her in. Finally, she is a light unit, so she can be used across various content without worrying about element like a water, wind, or fire unit might (For example Verdehile's weakness is that he can't be used in Giants). Fran is perfect for "First" teams and is usually the first unit exchanged for an upgrade when you are ready to create a speed team.

Great work so far ! --> Overall, if you can auto with a slower team, it's not a bad thing. You can auto repeat when you sleep, work, or just cant play knowing u'll clear it 100%. For Giants: If you want to increase your GB10 speed, add a Melia (wind dryad girl in the fusion center). She'll non-stop DOT the boss, allowing Kro to go shotgun mode. HOWEVER, u cant DOT Abyss bosses though so she won't increase your Abyss progression. Since you can get to the boss, the Lapis doesn't do much. Finding someone to replace her is my suggestion. :: Fran is good, but I prefer Violent runed Bella (light inugami). Some people prefer Fran for the 2 heals and the immunity. I prefer the heal on Bella for the ATK bar boost to lap the boss, defense break, and strip as Veromos on Violent w/ Verd can lap the boss pretty well. If you need to lap consistently, adding Spectra (fire gryphon) or Bernard (wind gryphon) in your Dragon runs will help out. My abyss dragon's 12 I have no healers, using Veromos, Verd, Water Geralt, Fire Inugami, and Water Jack-o-lantern (can remove the immunity on base attack (fire inugami double team helps with this), and has a speed + crit buff to lap) until I can get the shotgun teams. If you need damage, Water Geralt will do just fine with the Rend, and supplies an AoE defense break in his 2nd skill with attack bar pushback. Veromos, Verd, Fran, Geralt, +1 depending on your runes and mons should be able to do Dragon 10, if not tomorrow then sometime in 2-3 days haha. I still recommend getting a Light Inugami, I'm biased though, she was mine and our friends' favorite monster when we all started due to her versatility. -- If you want to mess around (i dont know ur runes, but this is one of my favorite things in the game), you can test running a Wind Yennefer into your abyss team. Sig is relatively low hp, so his leader skill + Wind Yennefer's barrier will help in keeping ur units alive, and her AoE will brand making u do increased damage. I made a new account to test some things, water Geralt does NOT need new runes to take u through Giant Abyss, though I runed mine into Violent/Blade. Since his big nuke is only 3 turn cd, it's super easy to get it back up with violent runes. Esp if you have Kro or Icaru to team up (btw, teaming up or similar attacks where you pull allies will reduce everyone's participating CDs by 1). -- Oh, another tip -- for PvP, you can get a high base speed unit to boost your attack bar so the DPS can catch up as they aren't as well Speed runed as nitiators usually (think Bernard, Megan (she's actually a little on the slower end but her ATK boost makes her a good opener for us lower ranked folks), Orion (water brownie magician), Kabilla (light harpy)). Scenario: You don't need to heal, but Bella's ATK bar boost may be needed for your other characters to get a turn before a crucial enemy. Other considerable openers when your speed gap is closer or you don't need to boost the ATK bar is Galleon for pvp. EDIT: Also, you get Ancient Coins from events. I suggest using it on Light Ifrit (His passive can steal the Dragon's immunity and put it on your entire team (same with Giant's ATK buff), or in PvP he can steal the enemy's buffs) or Dark Vampire Lord (good PvE unit, can be used in Necro and Steel Fortress and Rift Raids).

I've played that game for 8 years but got bored of it, if you need any help there I'm glad to help, keep it up 👍

fran needs atk to be good, but you also need to have good runes to make her have enough survivability lol. personally i always avoided healing as much as i could and just lock down the enemy. 85% max accuracy as theres always a 15% to miss effects (100% only viable in pvp maybe i forget) and bosses dont have that much resist to ever need 85%. build spectra (3* fire bird/griffin) - very good for progression. dont know if you know this, but skills that bring other teammates to atk as well reduces that teammate's abilities cool down. so you want kro going 2nd last (before verdihile)

You can swap Lapis for shannon, wind pixie 2*. she buffs defense and atk, slow all enemies and debuff Glancing Hit. You don't need to 2nd awakening her, she works fine without it and your run will be much safer. Maybe swap Fran for a Belladeon, light inugami 3*, you can find him in a secret dungeon, Fran's multistrike skill don't help that much in giants because of the boss's mechanic and Bella brings def break, dispel and heal increasing atk bar which is much more worth it.

Giants does not need a healer. The best cheat code for giants is the wind pixie (shannon) and veromos should provide you with enough healing before the boss dies. If I were to run a new beginner account my first giants team would be sig vero shannon belladeon naomi then I would swap the sig for the wind ifrit and bella for galleon once I get better runes.

Why do I watch these videos... for that sweet sweet FFT music in the background. Also for support

My GF plays summoners war but I play WotV... Might have to give this a shot while on background repeat lol.

Where are you 4 of +15 runes you got from the beginner event and summoners way? Your lapis needs to have the free Vampire Revenge runes, you Fran needs that free swift energy set, your Kro needs your free Fatal Blade set, your Tyron (when you build him) need your Dispair Focus set and you Loren (when you get her) need the free Violent Will set. Everyone else will need to farm up their runes sadly but doing the above should make your units a lot more usable.

Look into getting some crappy artifacts. Even bad ones early will give a super big stat boost early. Just clear B1 or Punishers Crypt and Steel Fortress farm up a set of artifacts for your mons! Its free stats :) Edit: didnt know arti dungeons are unlocked when you get level 27. Do it then!

Please just farm some white/green artifacts they are free stat boosts you don't use yet. They drop in steel fortress and punishers crypt.

Dont skill up Lapis, she dosent get good value out her skillups at all, neither does Verdahile really. Best to use it on someone like Galleon, Tyron or Lushen that you have
