Please anyone can recruit me for a party? My ID is 12557. Thanks guys!
Are you in Unicorn? In general stating your Union and lvl helps the process xD

Yeah, I was actually thinking of that post, but mainly wondering if they at least threw in some cost at the 250 avatar boards or something. IE did they slow down the appearance of cost a lot, or stop it completely?

Sorry for the lack of information, i'm in Unicorn and at lv.98.
I've maxed out Starlight to +20, along with the other three solo-element Keyblades.
I ground up 20 Yen Sids, 9 Fantasia Mickeys, and I have Colosseum and Event coins primed to rake in planes.
Tomorrow, I grow from a boy to a man. Overnight, hopefully.
In other news, fuck this whole event, it's an awful awful trap. Make an event where people can rake in Lux for days and have it wasted on disabled rankings. Then the event ends and people can't use levels reliably to fill up their AP, needing to use Jewels if they want to refill and keep going.
Like, it's probably not as conspiratorial as I'm making it sound, but fuck.

So is the only way to make Munny through the Moogle Medals Special Quests and finishing 5 quests? I need money to evolve some Medals and I have very little Munny.

How does one grind raid bosses? I know you can make the Bee raid boss appear but how do you do it for regular raid bosses?
Monday came and went and took the half-AP for special quests along with it. Really does seem like it's a special promo for Mondays only. Shame, as I really could have used it to grind for EXP/Evolve medals. Oh well, at least I was able to take advantage near the end when my Munny Quest unlocked.
EDIT: ^ "Unlimited" X?

As long as half AP continues for Mondays, it looks like Mondays will simply be Munny days for me.
From the Ingame Message
They knew exactly what they were doing - 300 Jewels payback isnt much when the boards were 3k. They should have refunded like half of the Jewels costs for people who bought it on Day 1 thinking they would get the medals with the original japanese attributes.
Playerbase in the US will likely be way smaller anyway with the knowledge of what Japan got in the first months - so they will adjust their gameplan to get to us...lol.

Hmm...i thought they stopped giving out Cost Nodes all together after level 210, at least thats my understanding.
Wanted to send you an invite but just realized our group is already full. But there should be another Gaffer Unicorn group here - i think we had at least two.
Honestly i think thats exactly the plan - at the end of the day they wanna make money and they will save the real good medals and boards until the time is right - as in people having to spend Jewels for stamina or money for jewels.

I had a good laugh when I read that. Sooooo, people spend 3000 jewels and you give them 300? Yeah...
Next time a limited time board like Zootopia's launch, wait 2-3 hours. Somebody on Reddit will probably post them.

Well, it's something. It's not much at all, but it's something.
See, the problem with my batshit "IT WAS SE'S PLAN ALL ALONG" tangent is that they'd have to have deliberately decided on having the Zootopia event (which practically explodes Lux on you as a side effect while one is grinding for coins) while "weeding out cheaters".and making all that accumulated Lux pointless. It feels too coincidental for me, even for SE.
In other news, lol that fucking apology.

So which raid boss is best to farm for munny?

Upgrade away. I believe we have to use adamantite to upgrade our keyblades past level 20 instead of orichalcum.
Post-20 upgrades require a new material, Adamantite, instead of Orichalcum.
That being said, we're going to hit the Underworld starting in Quest 311, which will allow us to finish upgrading Olympia to 20. So if you hold on to the Oris from 275 and 300, when we get to the Underworld you'll be able to very quickly max Olympia.
Regardless, by 325 we'll have all the Orichalcum we need to have all five current Keyblades maxed. Then it's the long wait until the mid-400s for Divine Rose.
Thanks!

I'm considering juggling both versions as now seems like a good time to get started with the Organization XIII event happening.

Just one is exhausting enough for me lol I do have a few in my Guild that are doing both and having a great time however.

So is there any sort of limit on applying Cid, Chip and Dale medals?
I used a +5 Chip and Dale on one of my "best" medals, so hopefully it wasn't wasted.

Yeah. At 6 stars a medal can only have their cost reduced by 10 and their attack and defense boosted by 1000.

Cool, thanks.
Couldn't find any info online but I did a test on my own (so there may be some mistakes):
This is from a 2* Stitch with a multiplier of 1.92-2.96
Normal attack damage= 617
Stitch alone: 1210 damage (x1.96)
1 Special attack before using Stitch: 1365 (x2.21)
2 Special attacks before using Stitch: 1545 (x2.5)
3 Special attacks before using Stitch: 1640 (x2.6)
4 Special attacks before using Stitch: 1670 (x2.7)
(Couldn't test the next tier because I don't have any Stitch friends, but I would assume this would be the max multiplier at 2.96)
So, from my test I saw that you would see a decent increase in damage if you're only using 2 medals beforehand. Then the following 2 have diminishing returns in damage until you can reach the max, where the multiplier jumps ahead a bit.
Maybe more people could test this and maybe get a more accurate answer (I didn't really test it much) but I hope this helps at least somewhat.

This is actually my primary problem with my Speed team right now - I have a ton of single target medals. I need to focus on guilting some of the Speed AOE farmables.

The Japanese version is so much more giving. I've been playing since last night and feel like I already have better medals.
No problem! I kinda wanted to find out myself anyway.
------------
I'm in need of speed medals, so I'm thinking of guilting a Sora and Stitch. My red medals are probably my best, and my blue a close second. Here's hoping I get Roxas when he comes out though, most of my blues are AoE.

If you use jewels to refresh AP, how does it account for overflow?
If I have 7/148 and refresh, does it put me at 155/148?

It doesn't lol it puts you to your max and that's that...as far as I know.

Seems strange. Most games like this give you an overflow. Bummer if true.

As you are well aware, SE is less than generous with anything in this game --.--
I can't believe how dumbbbbbbbbb my guilt rolls are. It has to be some sick joke. I went ahead and guilted a Donald Version A (I know, I know) since I just got TW to 5 medal slots while finishing quest 275. Donald remains my only other free medal guilt with 25% along with Tidus. The actual free medals I love (Wakka and Stitch) both can't get higher than 14% with MULTIPLE REROLLS.
Since Donald is also sitting at 25% I went ahead and put an Attack Boost 1 on him as well.
Sitting on jewels is torture, I really want to pull some Mickeys, Aurons, or Leons to make my Magic keyblade less pathetic.
