This page contains information on what to prepare in regards to the next Wind-favored Unite and Fight event, along with answers to frequently asked questions about the event.

How many of [x] weapon should I farm?

The specific number of weapon copies and Awakening needed can be found in the following sections on the Advanced Grid pages:


Tiamat Grids:
Core Weapons
Zephyrus Grids:
Notable Farmable Weapons

Which raids should I host daily?

It is recommended that players daily host the following raids for their weapon drops and various other useful materials:

Even if the host is not able to contribute in these raids, they are still very likely to succeed. In particular, the Revans Raids listed above are especially popular due to the weapons and materials required to Mk II Forge a weapon.

How many Revans Mk II weapons should I farm?

Forging a Mk II Revans weapon costs a large amount of materials. For this reason, only weapons that are Attack or Special awakened are recommended to Mk II. The additional stats Defense brings is generally not necessary.

A Mk II weapon is a strict upgrade over its Mk I counterpart. However due to the significant cost to both forge and awaken a Mk II weapon, extra caution should be taken when upgrading a weapon.

Weapon Copies Notes

Sette di Spade Mk II
Mk II Forged
0 - 3
0 - 1
Unforged
0 - 2
  • A strong option for Omega charge attack teams. You will generally use 3 - 4 copies in a grid due to how the weapon skill functions.
    • C.A. teams are usually most effective in Nightmare Lvl 250 due to the 13.1m damage hard cap. If you feel that you will use a C.A. team for NM250, this weapon will be very useful.
  • Can be used as a source of Triple Attack for EX+ setups.

Spada di Vento Mk II
Mk II Forged
0 - 1
0 - 1
Unforged
0 - 1
  • Generally used as a filler grid piece. Weapon Awakening gives it the versatility needed to adapt to what your setup needs.

Which New World Foundation weapon should I uncap?

Uncapping a New World Foundation Weapon is a necessary step in Uncapping Evokers. Make sure to consider the strength of an Evoker before deciding which weapon to uncap. Check #Evoker Recruitment and Uncapping for more details on the characters themselves.

All New World Foundation Weapons at 5★ provide an EX ATK modifier, 5% DMG Cap and an additional effect unique to each weapon.

Weapon Unique Skill Notes

Theater of Temperance 		 
Hermit-Temperance's AccordWhen main weapon: Massive boost to Wind allies' ATKModifier: EX.
At end of turn: Wind allies who didn't attack gain 100% Sharp ATK Up (1 time)ATK is sharply boosted
Strength: 100%Multiplier: AssassinDuration: 1 turn .

Melody of Judgement 		 
Emperor-Judgement's AwakeningWhen main weapon: Massive boost to Wind allies' ATKModifier: EX.
Wind allies take 1% DMGBased on max HP every turn.
30% Earth DMG reduction.
  • Provides a strong defensive effect at the cost of 1% DMGBased on max HP every turn. Can be used in higher Nightmare difficulty Full Auto teams.
  • If you have not reforged Draconic Rod into Prayer of Grand Gales, this weapon can be a substitute as it can also be used alongside the Dark Opus Weapon.
  • If you possess Prayer of Grand Gales, this weapon is strictly worse in terms of defensive potential.

Dark Opus Transcendence

Dark Opus Weapons gain small benefits on each step of its Transcendence process. For further details, check Advanced Grids#Dark Opus Transcendence.

At Lvl 210, Dark Opus Weapons can be equipped with Pendulum of Extremity and Pendulum of Sagacity. Both are likely to be used in Guild War setups.

At Lvl 230, Dark Opus Weapons gain an aura-boostable general damage amplification modifier.

At Lvl 250, the charge attack is upgraded to unworldly damage. This is particularly noteworthy for Chain of Falsehood burst setups. These teams are likely to be heavily utilized across the event.

Draconic Weapon Provenance

Upon reforging Draconic Weapons into their Provenance forms, they can be equipped alongside Dark Opus Weapons. When equipped with Crag Teluma, Draconic Weapons will most notably bring a large amount of defensive utility which will be helpful in higher Nightmare difficulty Full Auto setups.

Melody of Judgement can be used if the player has not yet acquired Prayer of Grand Gales. However, the Draconic Weapon can be seen as almost a strict upgrade as it brings a larger Majesty weapon skill and it will also not deal turn-based DMG to the team.

Eternal Recruitment, Uncapping and Transcending

What Nightmare Difficulty should I farm?

Choosing which Nightmare Difficulty to farm will come down to what your goal is. If you want Celestial Weapons, you will want to farm Nightmare Lvl 90, whereas if you want more honors, farming the highest Nightmare difficulty available will yield the best meat/time to honor ratio.

However, if the more difficult fights are taking too long to kill or are too difficult to clear, moving to a lower difficulty may provide better results.

Use the calculator below to figure out which fight is most efficient for honor gain. Don't forget to also consider the time taken to menu in between fights.

Raid Honors Minutes Seconds Honors per Hour
EX+ 127,600 N/A
NM90 310,000 N/A
NM95 910,000 N/A
NM100 2,650,000 N/A
NM150 4,100,000 N/A
NM200 20,250,000 N/A
NM250 75,250,000 N/A

How to get Chests of Good Fortune

You can obtain a total of 60 Chests of Good Fortune per event. 10 can be obtained from the Event missions. The remaining 50 can be farmed from the following quests:

  • Nightmare Lvl 95 (Host only)
  • Nightmare Lvl 100 (Host only)
  • Nightmare Lvl 150
  • Nightmare Lvl 200
  • Nightmare Lvl 250

If you are struggling to find all 50 chests, farming Nightmare Lvl 95 is recommended as it is the easiest and fastest quest to clear.

How do I farm Celestial Weapons?

Celestial Weapons drop from every Nightmare fight. Although the drop chance gradually increases per Nightmare difficulty lvl, the quickest way to get Celestial Weapons is to farm Nightmare Lvl 90 as the fights are very short.

You will want to stack as much Drop Rate Boosts as you can without significantly slowing down your setup. Further information on specific drop rates can be found in the section below.

Understanding Drop Rate Boosts

Many players will opt to run extra Drop Rate Boosts when farming Extreme+ and Nightmare Lvl 90 as it will increase the chances that a chest with Bait Chunks or Celestial Weapons will appear. It is important to note that Drop Rate Boosts cap at 300%. See Drop Rate Boosts for further information.

Chest Info:[1][2]

Chest Appearance Rate Chance within Chest Total
Bait Chunk
(Extreme +) 		60%/70%There are two different chests that can contain Bait Chunk - -
Malicious Clump
(Nightmare Lvl 90) 		40% - -
(Nightmare Lvl 90) 1.72% 9.05% 0.156%

Key Takeaways:

  • Campaign i.e. Magfest, can double or quadruple the effects of Journey Drops.
  • The extra chests containing Bait Chunks are guaranteed at 167% Total Drop Rate (×1.67)[3][4]
    • With Crew Buffs and Journey Drops, only a single Kaguya (Summon) is needed to guarantee the chest.
    • If Journey Drop effects are quadrupled, only 5★ Tien is needed.
    • If you have Premium Pass and Journey Drop effects are doubled, only 5★ Tien is needed.
  • The extra chest containing Celestial Weapons cannot be guaranteed even if capping Drop Rate Boosts.
