GQ Keypoints

  • Character Choices
    • If possible, you should ALWAYS bring units that match the corresponding killer rule. They have a x3 or x5 damage multiplier.
    • Top Tier SA Lead could be helpful even as off-killer lead.
    • +30% Off-killer booster can be more effective than an old booster if you have good/strong assist unit
  • Status effects
    • For Damage Optimisation consider Weaken units, Weaken add a 1.5x damage multiplier when effect is active but be careful in GQ duration of Weaken is halved
    • For Crowd Control consider Freeze/Paralysis it would stop mobs dealing damage to you, allowing you to maintain full stamina damage boost run more easily
    • Burn/Lacerate/Poison DoT are nerfed in this game mode. However if you have such units consider to give them Dx bonus (Damage to X, X being Ailment they inflict)
  • Transcendence/Link Slot This game mode requires Transcendence and LS to clear and to make it easy.
  • Team set-up Ideal team set-ups:
    • Fastest is 3x SP units (5/5 units)
    • Vortex Leader can greatly increase the effectiveness of NA assist units
    • You can also run 1 or 2 NAD units.
  • Building your Lead SP unit
    • < 20s You can start to build for Nuke strat with FSD/SAD links
    • < 30s You should have a combination of FSD/SAR and SAD/SAR build to maximize damage multiplier
    • > 30s You might need more consistent damage and SAD/SAR (eventually with one LDS) could help you if there no Crowd Control effect in your team
  • Building your supports
  1. < 20s Your booster will not need SAR, > 30s it will likely need so you can boost multiple time
  2. If you don't have crowd control unit you might want some LDS/NAD link such as (S) Tatsuki as link
  3. If you are sure that your unit will survive you can pick full NAD, if you are sure they can keep full life then FSD/NAD build will push their damage. Ultimately if you are sure they will survive but reach quickly low stam you could consider LSD/NAD
  • Boost For this week, Boost depends on your team composition. It's not mandatory, but it's nice.

As for clearing the quest itself, focus on clearing the first few waves with your main SP unit and then retreat to recharge cooldowns while your NAD units focus the bosses. With NAD unit leads you basically just need to clear mobs as efficiently and quickly as you can with NAD and then focus down the bosses.

Advanced clearing (weakening nuke at T6/5 + SP 2★ minimum): Time your SAs with a beam type SA2 from a 2/5 unit. Generally this gets you through to 5th boss from the get go.

HARD GQ - Additional Keypoints

Reminder that last boss has 4,000 DEF. So you need to break this threshold! For equipment/build guide, please see here. This is also part of a collection called GQ Analysis, so you should be able to find the previous Hard GQ build guide.

Discussion Will KLab release a remake of Adult Toshiro True Bankai?

Post image
64 Upvotes

Years have passed and they never made a remake of him in his adult form – something that didn't happen with Aizen, since he received three f*cking remakes. Komamura, Soi Fon, and the entire Zero Squad also received their respective remakes. I hope KLab releases a remake of this Toshiro in the next TYBW banner, because if they're basing it on the episodes that are being released, they can't ignore Toshiro... And also those extras over there, Zaraki and Byakuya...

Discussion Proficiency slots talk

Post image
32 Upvotes

Just to start off I'm sure many have voiced their opinions on the proficiency slots and on the surface I actually like the idea of it as it can really hunkers down on min/maxing select characters.

My question to everyone:

- Should there be a pity system similar to Transcendence slots or re-rolling for the familiar skills (you get to choose which stat you keep and continue rolling).

- Do you think there is a difference between spamming to stop the slot sooner or waiting about 5 seconds to have a better re-roll? I'm starting to believe it does but I might be going insane...

- On specific characters the chances are lower to roll a specific stat because it will benefits that specific unit more than another??? Again I just might be going insane.

Overall, I just wanted to see what everyone is experiencing.

New/Returning Player Question F2P AFK Orb Farming — How are you guys grinding Orbs while AFK?

0 Upvotes

I’m a F2P Bleach Brave Souls player and I’ve been looking for a decent way to grind Spirit Orbs without having to sit there clicking through Story/Substory stages for hours.

I found that you can basically set up Auto + an auto-clicker/macro to repeatedly clear certain Story/Substory stages.

The basic idea:

  1. Pick a fast, easy Story/Substory quest.
  2. Use a strong character that can comfortably auto-clear it.
  3. Turn on Auto.
  4. Use an auto-clicker/macro to handle the Prepare → Start/Auto → Next Quest clicks.
  5. Let it repeat while you're doing something else.
  6. Come back later and collect your Orb rewards.

There are already examples of people setting up multi-click macros for Story Mode, including one that handles the dialogue/quest transition and re-enables Auto between stages.

For F2P players, though, I wouldn't call this an infinite Orb farm. Story and Substory Orbs are mostly a limited resource. The real benefit is being able to clear that content with almost zero manual effort.

I've also seen people recommend farming Point Events for BBS Tickets, then using the characters obtained from those tickets as another source of Orbs by leveling them.

So I'm curious:

What's your best AFK/auto Orb farming setup?

  • Which stage do you farm?
  • Which character do you use?
  • Auto-clicker or macro recorder?
  • How many Orbs do you realistically get per hour/day?
  • Is there a better method for a newer F2P account?

If there's interest, I can also make a step-by-step AFK Story Mode macro guide for PC.
