Re: (Nutaku) Hellfire Girls
So, correct me if I'm wrong, but it seems as though Affection doesn't need to be maxed on the parent cards before Training occurs, as it simply transfers directly to the new card, but doesn't actually raise the ceiling affection of the new card. IE: If I put two Common cards with max affection through training, I get 40/100 affection on the new card, but if I put two Common cards with only half (10 affection each) then I get a card with 20/100 affection. Just thought I'd put this observation out there, as it will really help to speed up my Training process. Again, this is just what I'm seeing from my own experimentation, so please feel free to correct me if I'm mistaken, and I'll edit my post.
^Just to confirm, I still max-level the parent cards, as this does affect the final stats of the new card, but you don't have to max-affection them (so it seems). Any affection that you do gain on either or both of the parent cards will be directly transferred to the new card (therefore you are never "wasting" affection gained on cards that you plan to use for Training).
I did a check way back at the beginning of the thread max affection on parents card does increase the stats of the resulting card I'll edit in the test once I find it.
Base card Kotomi Nagisa C
Max Level Max Affection Training results: (Lv10 base/ Lv10 Training)
Attack Power 510 Defense Power 345 Lv: 1 Affection Level 40/100
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Base Card Training results (Lv1 Base/ Lv1 Training)
Attack Power 364 Defense Power 263 Lv: 1 Affection Level 0/100
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(Lv1 Base / Lv10 Training)
Attack Power 390 Defense Power 278
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(Lv 10 Base/ Lv10 Training) Affection Points 0
Attack Power 502 Defense Power 340
As you can see the first card (both max level max affection) has higher stats than the fourth(only max level), the difference seems small but Kotomi is one of the weakest cards in the game so i expect the difference grows with stats.
