Basic Grids/FireHL

Once Impossible-tier raids are unlocked at Rank 101, players should start to build different grids depending on the type of content they want to tackle.

Colossus Cane Grid

This grid can still serve as a solid baseline for any early content as you start to branch off into more specialized grids. Due to some Colossus Canes getting replaced in later grids, 4★ uncapping all of the copies below is not entirely necessary.

Ancient Ecke Sachs Grid

This grid utilizes the Enmity weapon skill on Ancient Ecke Sachs which boosts your team when they take more damage. This is more suited for longer and harder content fights where enemy triggers will start doing more damage to the party. Multiple copies are also equipped to reach ~100% critical hit rate, though this cannot be fully achieved until Colossus Omega is uncapped to 5★ at rank 151. For further setups, see Advanced Grids.

Core Grid Weapons

Weapon	Obtain	Notes
Ancient Ecke Sachs	Quest: Twin Elements Showdown Shop: Prestige Pendant ×1,000	Stacking four copies in your grid with 4★ Colossus Omega in Main/Support summons brings you to 88.4% critical hit chance. Later on, once you begin using 5★ Colossus, this will jump up to 98.8% crit chance.
Nilakantha	Raid: Shiva (Raid) Shop: Prestige Pendant ×6,000 (2 copies) Daily Point Shop (300 Points, 1 copy)	This weapon can introduce a boostable Stamina modifier to your grid before you can uncap your Scythe of Renunciation to 5★ at rank 170. Ideal for any short content where few turns are taken and your party can stay at high HP levels. Can be used as an HP weapon in later grids as it gets higher uncaps and skill levels.
Dagger of Bahamut Coda	Side Story: What Makes the Sky BlueTrade Bahamut Claw in the Shop Shop: Bahamut Weapons	Bahamut Weapons continue to be a core part of grids especially once it's fully forged and uncapped. Forge to Coda 4★ with materials from Proto Bahamut (Impossible) (Rank 101) Uncap to 5★ with materials from Ultimate Bahamut (Impossible) (Rank 130)
Sword of Michael (SSR)	Shop: Seraphic Weapons	This weapon should always be in a grid when fighting at an elemental advantage because of its 20% damage amplify. See Damage Formula for a detailed explanation of how the game calculates damage. Its 4★ upgrade into the Sword of Valorblaze, which increases its amplify from 20% to 23%, costs a sizeable amount of hard-to-get materials and should not be prioritized.
Scythe of Renunciation	Treasure Trade: Dark Opus Weapons Fire Quartz ×500 Axe Stone ×255 Shadow Substance ×5	This will be an anchor piece for all Omega Fire grids onwards into endgame content. This weapon should not be used until it is uncapped to 4★ and upgraded to lvl 120 as that is when you unlock its second weapon skill. 4★ Uncap Cost: Shadow Substance ×5 Silver Centrum ×5 Legendary Merit ×10 Supreme Merit ×100 Fire Urn ×30 Shiva Omega Anima ×10
