Did you mean enhance? Personally I kept doubles of all my big 4 just to avoid the "this is the only armor this knight can wear" message.Quote:

But I'm not sure if I should cause I sometimes use the regular lvl 15 armor for the stages as backup even though they don't last long in a few hits.
It's probably best used to enhance one of the later levels of the AA+, since IIRC a level 15 AA is worth 24 + (15-1) = 38 enhancement points.Quote:

Laugh, true; however, that is not me. I'm perpetually broke in this game: enhancement is a beast that must be fed.Quote:

For some reason, my knights didn't heal during the time that I wasn't logged on! Was offline for just over a day and my units were at the same health (1hp) as they were when I logged out! Was really annoying as had to wait 2 hours to finish the round I was on!!
Any reason why?
If you "x-ed" out of the game(not "exited") in the middle of a battle, you won't heal.Quote:

Once your economy is decked out, and you've finished leveling and content progression as far as you want, then there's plenty of spare resources to start pushing the higher quality armors.
Finally it depends what your goals are, if you're just looking to get to 100 quickly and then look around (like I did), the path is Big 4 to 50 then ride SS+ to level 100 on exp runs in HC norm (mighty might actually be better depending on targets) in my estimation.
Fact is the Big 4 will serve you very well even past 100 for a lot of things; they may not be the ultimate end-game armor, but their cost and stats justify their being initial tier of armor to shoot for.
Hmm, in the middle of a battle, the only "X" there is should be the "flee" one.Quote:

You put it way better than I did. Words weren't forming correctly in my brain when I wrote that :p.Quote:

If you say, hit the "home button" on your phone in the middle of a battle(not in-between rounds), you won't heal.Quote:

(also very handy when you're short on special attack energy to hit the boss: fleeing preserves special attack energy, but heals all monsters in that round again, so you can (ab)use that to get the extra 1 or 2 hits to fill the bar)Quote:
