well if it advances like refines then its going to be 500 for 7 an 1000 for 8 an so on but I do not know exacts since im still working on 6 I have it need a rebate but yeah armor rank is costly for how long it takes to do. which *s cause advance wish credits cost 10 threads to do to.

it doesnt grow like refines because of the higher costs and the requirement of more threads.

if i remember correctly it was 200 to go from 7 to 8 and 500 from 8 to 9, i needed about 170 growth points to get to 8, then about 150 to get to 9(i got really lucky)

yeah but the base values are the same as the refines just the wish credits cost more

Actually it takes 100 growth points to reach armor rank 7, out of which I've already filled 15... I've usually seen it upgrade at around 3/4 or more of the total growth value, so it might probably be like 70 or so out of 100 as much as i can think of, and of course, I'm not sure. Coz 1 growth value needs 8 advanced threads and that means approx 550-600 threads... or even more which is way costlier than anything so far in game :(

therefore i'd like to know if ANYONE of u actually got rank 7 armor, and if u did, how many threads/ growth values did it take to get there?

so that means u've had rank 7 armor... are u able to remember how many growth values did it take to reach FROM RANK 6 TO 7?

Do not expect to get it before 80/100.

6 to 7 is 100 wish credit, 7 to 8 200, 8 to 9 is 500. you get 1 wish credit every 8 threads used.

Thanx mate.... i guess if i dont spend cps on it, then per month it gives at least 32 threads for free, if u try hard SA that is, so 4 wish credits every month when im already done with 15/100, seems like ill have rank 7 by the next year! wow :D feels good to know -_-

I hate things being this costly lol

I have opened yesterday a thread in bugs & support to talk exactly about the meaninglessness of the situation with battle armor rank 7+ and with how hard is to level it up at this point of the game.

Btw, unless you are a very huge whale (over 50k ingots recharged per month) just forget battle armor exists and simply use the 4-5 wish credits we get per month when the rebate is on.

If you spend as much as it costs to reach rank 7 ba in myoboku cultivation, ability treasure, summon cultivation or charms you get 4 times the power and initiative you will get by getting rank 7 ba.

Battle armor was also the only way to look cooler than others in the past, now with all these different types of better clothing it shouldn't be as costly considering the measly power you get from it.

Yea its a bummer :( i soooo wanted to get rank7 armor coz it looks cool, like a kage robe lol... well, it *s being f2p :(

That's my current situation.

Got rank 6 around june of last year.

Obviously since we got myoboku cultivation that unexpectedly unlocked the sure thread per try in SA expert mode the things are going on a little faster, but i won't be able to rank it up within this year i think (unless i get the luck of the devil).

Getting only 4-5 wish credit per month is not appealing at all and pretty meaningless at this point of the game i would say.

Personally speaking, even if i'm here:

and even if i'm able to be in top 64/32 in space time with some constance:

i do not see a single reason to spend a single coupon/ingot in that feature right now.

Even if i went crazy and cease to be the casual 10-20$ per month low casher to become a 40-50k ingots per month whale i wouldn't think about that feature at all for, minimum, the next 8-9 months, considering how many better ways to spend them exist right now.

6 to 7 is 100 max attempts at 8 threads per attempt. Full Max Retail Price: 50,400 coupons / Max BA Panic Buy Cost: 30,400 Ingots

7 to 8 is 200 max attempts at 8 threads per attempt. Full Max Retail Price: 100,800 coupons / Max BA Panic Buy Cost: 60,800 Ingots

8 to 9 is 300 max attempts at 8 threads per attempt. Full Max Retail Price: 151,200 coupons / Max BA Panic Buy Cost: 91,200 Ingots

Total for all 3 levels: Full Max Retail Price: 302,400 coupons / Max BA Panic Buy Cost: 206,400 Ingots (~$4,000)

Obviously, final cost will highly depend on luck, how many free threads you acquire, how many you pick up during events, bought on sale/retail, bonus from the BA level up rebate, etc. Also, don't expect to get lucky with anything less than 80-90% of the meter filled.

EDIT: delete this reply, i made it by mistake.

1 year! wow, i think im stopping on 6 :(
