How to farm Yuna’s 800 kills with 10 energy

Discussion / Tip(s)

I’m not sure if anyone already posted this but here it goes. You can farm all of Yuna’s 800 kills with one run in 2-9 normal mode.

All you have to do is go into the node with a healer, preferably Destina, with no dps or support.

You then kill up to where you can take a right and come across two alarm bots and one robot with a shield.

First you kill the large robot.

Then you use one or both heals on your healer until the alarm bots spawn their minions.

Then all you do is keep killing minions one by one while the alarm bots keep spawning more. You can keep at it indefinitely until you reach 800.

Hope this helps anyone looking to not burn a ton of their energy farming Yuna now that her epic catalysts are available easily. (Pics added for examples just in case I didn’t come across clearly).

Wish i knew this before I completed Yuna... good tip man!

Not widely known, i shared your post to my guild, thanks for spreading awareness!

No problem. Hopefully people can take advantage of this before it’s fixed (that is if it this isn’t intended to work).

I burned about 200 energy before I figured I’d try it. I got more time than money (now that kise has avoided my $100 pack lol)

“Avoided my $100 pack lol”

Fucking hilarious it hurts

What do you even use Yuna for?

she's a nice support, good for Cidd

You can get the blazing soul from kise's side story

Too late. Already did this with energy as normal.
Do you get more EXP though if you finish the battle with 800 kills?

ErmirI•

Still useful for Guild's weekly mission.

Immahnoob•

Aren't those like 80 though? That's kind of like "Farm some catalysts if you're lucky". Unless those repeatable enemies drop catalysts too. Then go with it.

3
iMoneypitOP•

No, once they drop one item you’re capped at that. Mobs only drop one item, be it gold, catalyst, or equip per battle.

4
iMoneypitOP•

Unfortunately I didn’t log my account exp doing this. I only used my max destina with no support.

Maybe someone can test it by taking a level 1 fodder and a support destina to log the exp gain.

5
Koeril•

Killed 354 robots before I got bored and feared losing progress. Cleared the rest of the stage too, including Hazel.
Support Destina with 4x fodder gave 333xp each. Didn't notice account xp before I began, but it couldn't have been much.

linuslinus92•

How do you kill mobs with only a Destina?

1
Immahnoob•

Exploiting the game 101.

iMoneypitOP•

Nope, you’re capped at one drop per battle. So unfortunately no unlimited catalysts (although I wish it did lol)

Me as well, they should allow us this small pity.

Zolalkt•

Does this work for lorina's specialty change as well?

10
Otending•

Maybe, but no urgent mission
You'll end up with 10k mob but 10 urgent mission...

Even without doing this, I finished the 10k before the 50

I think farming catalyst and food is more interesting than rushing and 10k mobs and still have to farm for the 50 missions

8
Zolalkt•

Yeah but somehow I only need 10 more urgent missions but still have about 3k mobs to kill

2
zz_IGN: Nzvhr•

You're lucky. I'm at likr 12-13k killed and need 13 urgents still.

1
iMoneypitOP•

In theory this should work. Wish I thought of it before I did it though lol

XxRo_X_aSxX•

Yup

zokiman•

with angelica you can let it play on auto forever. She likes the cannons more

6
Ronteque•

Can anyone else confirm this? I need an Angelica supporter..

edit: Found a lvl50 Angelica supporter, can confirm full auto works with her. Angelica will kill off the water alarm bot and leave the earth alarm bot alive. Thereafter earth cannons will constantly spawn and Angelica will target the earth cannons over the earth alarm bot. I am going to leave my game running for a good 6 hours or so. Just hope I don't get banned.

2
literalweeaboo•

Can confirm that level 50 single Angelica supporter does not work; she kills the units way too fast.

1
Ronteque•

Huh? My Angelica supporter is still auto-ing without a problem since my last post earlier. She require 2 hits to kill a single cannon. Occasionally she will dual attack or crit which kill them in a single turn. But the autobot will always summon a new cannon to replace the dead ones.  

Unless your Angelica is killing stuff in 1 hit?

1
literalweeaboo•

"she kills the units way too fast"

2
zz_IGN: Nzvhr•

Either unequip gear so she doesn't one-shot them or go below 0 morale for the -25% stat debuffs. I did the same on my Destina and it ended up being perfect, she didn't kill them too fast but also didn't end up dying from the dmg.

That’s what I did! I got the last 200 I needed in about ten minutes. Angelica is an animal.

std_out•

I read this post as I just started farming for Yuna. Currently trying this method with my Destina and Achates cause I need to level up Achates so I'll see if it actually give xp too.

​

Edit : I gave up after 250 or so cause it's so tedious. also it doesn't give xp.

3

This is fantastic. Thanks for this. How do you skip the supporter though? I don't want them on the team.

2
iMoneypitOP•

Alternatively you could also select a level 1 fodder and use a friends 5 star destina. That would work too.

5
Auxalie•

You don’t have to choose a supporter, just tap on the one selected and it will deselect ^^

4
iMoneypitOP•

Yeah I tapped the supporter icon until it wasn’t highlit to deselect it.

3
yonkishum•

Saved and upvoted, thank you so much!

2
JeidelacruzUK•

Can this be autod?

2
iMoneypitOP•

I don’t think so. When on auto my destina would kill alarm bots first, stopping further spawns.

1
ItsTheKevin86•

Yes but you have to select the other bots during their turn

2
zz_IGN: Nzvhr•

Check my other post here, it seems you kinda can auto it although it's probably not entirely consistent.

2
TheVergeltung•

You can auto this, your Destina just needs to be super weak like mine. Mine is around 9k combat power, and can't 1-shot the cannons, so the green alarm bot has plenty of time to keep three cannons up.

It's going to take a good long time to get 800 machines like this, but whatever. I'll just leave it running.

1
Fubi-FF•

Yes I was autoing this with Angelica.

1
MurKdYa•

Wow this is amazing thank you. Also how are the catalysts available easier?

2
iMoneypitOP•

Nope :(.

Still have to farm those the old fashioned way.

3
MurKdYa•

Increased drop rates though?

2
iMoneypitOP•

It seems like you’re capped at 1 drop per battle so it’s the same rates as regular farming. Slower in fact since you’re basically spending a couple hours on one battle.

2
ItsTheKevin86•

They can be exchanged in the new event. Only 2 of the souls though :(

2
Seidvi•

You can create an alt and farm the event. Then trade it to your main account in the same guild.

BrokenCandy•

QUALITY INFORMATION --- This derserves to be at the top of the reddit for a while

2
hazsflux•

Tks for the great trick. But I just want to auto it... is there any other map than 2-8 and 2-9 with a decent amount of machinery?

2
iMoneypitOP•

I believe 2-9 or 2-8 world difficulty has 9 per run

2
zz_IGN: Nzvhr•

You can auto it, check out mine/another guys post here. I'm currently autoing for the last hour or so.

1
valphio•

It force me to select a supporter, how can i skip it? Edit: nvm :D

2
iMoneypitOP•

Tap the selected supporter. That will deselect it and when you hit next you’ll see the spot where the supporter icon is will be blank.

2
valphio•

Thank you ;)

Is achates good enough? She's the only healer that i have

yeah, works.

By all means do. I’m just glad if it helps others.

zz_IGN: Nzvhr•

I seem to have found a (semi?) consistent way autoing this. It might not kill all 800 in one run, but at least you don't have to do it manually. My Destina has killed about 100 now on auto.

The trick: make sure she has low enough attack that she won't always one-shot the green tanks (the ones that spawn). And...that's it! It seems that the auto-targeting starts from the enemy that's furthest away from your character. This means she'll prioritize the blue ones, these are also weaker and will get one shot almost inevitably it seems. That's fine, as long as the green one is alive and it takes you ~2 turns to kill the mobs on average, the green droid will spawn 2 behind himself effectively making your character never hit it.

Maybe there is some variability to it but this seems to be working so far. Happy autoing!

2
derekwing•

Auto-battling prioritizes enemy types that your heroes are strong against

3
wilico98•

yeah which are the 2 blue ones (if you use destina), but after that it seems that destina prioritizes the back enemies, cause it worked for me too

1

Can you give me your exact health and attack stats? That would help.

1
wilico98•

Honestly I just picked a friend Destina which was around lvl 43, she couldn't even 1hit kill the blue guy consistently then I left the game playing while I slept then the next morning I had finished the quest haha

1
zz_IGN: Nzvhr•

Yeah this is the rule but it seems that when there are no enemies you counter it goes from the back. This is probably why it always prioritizes bosses too (since the boss is always furthest back).

1

This resulted in my level 45 Destina fighting a constant barrage of 4 green robots and one summoner robot, where she would only attack every second or third turn, because she needed to heal from all the bleed and shelling. Adding any more than one health set put her over the one-shot limit, killing both summoner bots. Ended up killing only one bot every minute or so, from all the turns. Bleed procs killed her in less than 15 minutes.

Edit: Either I'm testing it wrong, or it's only working within extremely limited parameters that you lucked into. The difference between one-shotting blues and not one-shotting greens, while having enough health to heal the procs, but not too much to push into kill range seems to be around 2-3% stats. Even one piece of minor gear throws the whole thing off.

Can you give me your exact health and attack stats? That would help. Also, which enemies you kill and in what order before you start auto-ing seems to be crucially important.

1
zz_IGN: Nzvhr•

Hey, I went to bed so sorry for the late reply:

What I tried first was un-equipping my weapon, which didn't work cause she still occasionally one-shot the units which eventually caused her to kill the alarm-o-bot. What I tried after that was to get the morale to less than 0, so I got the -25% atk/def/speed. This was too much without a weapon (she ended up dying after like an hour or something, after I fell asleep), but when I re-equipped my weapon this ended up being perfect. She's currently auto-ing away for the last 1½ hours staying at around 75% hp on average and not really going lower than that.

I can give you my exact stats when I end the battle but given that I took a -25% hit to all my stats (including speed) the range shouldn't be that hard to find. From memory my stats should be something like 9.5k hp, 900 def and roughly base attack or slightly above (say like 900).

As for which enemies I kill, I just kill the big one, heal/kill the blue small ones (she will prioritize the water ones since they are her counter element) until the green one has spawned ~2 behind himself, and then I auto. Honestly it seems pretty consistent cause I've restarted a bunch of times trying it out and it always works for at least a while.

As for the rate, I would say I kill about ~3 robots/minute so it's not unreasonably slow either.

I use Mahagara's tome as my artifact to give her some extra speed after healing, mostly because I lack all the good SW artifacts. If you either Staff, Celestine or whatever the one from the Kayron banner was called those should all make her basically immortal.

im still missing 1 blazing soul catalyst. is there any other way to get it other than 4-9?

2
yamorii•

The kise event sells some

1
liutena•

Is it possible to auto this? Or did you manually kill all 800?

1
iMoneypitOP•

Auto farmed other dungeons until kill 400. Then manual killed this way the last 400

3
Torimas•

You probably can't. Auto defaults to attacking the boss so it will eventually kill the alarm bot.

2
areyouseriouswtf•

Is there a easy way of doing hazel's kill 300 as well?

1
Rikochka2•

Honestly, just go farm them in Taranor (9-6)

I’ve gotten 3 catalysts so far, whereas this method here doesn’t drop anything extra (only one drop per fight)

Plus this method doesn’t increase exp gained either, so if you’re leveling up fodder it’s much better to just farm

2
iMoneypitOP•

I’m not sure it would work. The only reason you can rack up so many in one run this way is because the alarm bots spawn canons endlessly.

I’d have to see if there are similar mobs in reingar that spawns experimental subjects.
