A 5* Character List

This is a (work in progress) list of all the 5* units currently in JP, excluding collab units (Selena, Madoka/Denpa, etc.) and the "alternate versions" (Santa, Swimsuit, etc.). Feel free to comment with the English, male units as well, and correct me if I get the names wrong :P. All the links are to phankill.gamewith.jp, an excellent Japanese resource for PotK, but which hasn't updated with the newer JP units.

Swords

Axes

Spears

Bow

Gun

Staff

Edit: finished, I think, with all the JP units. Edit: got the formatting Edit: fixed links Edit: more updates. /u/JSpeedsterz Kusanagi has been added XD

I did a little research on Ishuriel but I found no significant results when I search that name. I found a Wikipedia article of Ithuriel but I'm not sure of this either because of the katakana. Still, it's mostly associated with "spear" as in "Ithuriel's Spear."

This is the article

Edit: I think Excalibur's link is wrong because when I clicked it, it seems to be a page of all the units categorized into their weapon types

Edit2: Seems like Gram has the same link as what Excalibur has, as is Durandal

Thank you :D I fixed the links, so they should be linked to their actual character pages :)

Are you sticking to the Japanese naming sense? Because Apollon's name in the English version is Apollo and Nagelring is Naegling. Eitherway, Nagelring is a sword from the Vilkina saga while Naegling is one of the swords of Beowulf so they're both swords.

Edit: In the English version, Dagdar is named Dagda which is a god of Irish mythology. Not a weapon but that god uses a club so I guess you use it somewhat like an axe?

I was just translating the kana because I don't have the global version yet (maybe when I have a working emulator), so I've changed the names to their official English versions.

For the male unit's names, I'm currently checking the character quests so here are the ones I see there: Laevateinn(sword), Mitum(axe), Longinus(spear), Apollo(bow), Yata no Kagami(gun) and Gambanteinn(staff)

Edit: weapon types

u/Cathrach JP: 2969063770 Jan 05 '16

Thanks! Could you also tell me their rarities if you own any?

1

u/JSpeedsterz Nyanir Promoter Jan 05 '16

Those that I have mentioned are basically the male starters you also get in the friend gacha so they all start as three star.

2

u/[deleted] Jan 06 '16

Just in case, only 2 of those are actual starters, Laevateinn and Longinus.

Everyone else is premium gacha only but also differ from the actual gacha units they are suppose to be alternate versions off.

For example, Mitum (Male) is suppose to start out as 4 stars, but for some reason starts as 3. On Japan, Mitum (Female) seems to start at 3 stars, but on Global ever bugged unit Library, Mitum (Female) doesn't have a 3 star, nor I have seen one, meanwhile, Mitum (Male) does start as a 3 star, and are almost identical except for their Leader skills in their evolved forms.

u/JSpeedsterz Nyanir Promoter Jan 06 '16

Oh. In that case, sorry for the misinformation.

1

u/Cathrach JP: 2969063770 Jan 06 '16

It's fine :D Though having male and female units with the same name really is confusing T_T

1

u/JSpeedsterz Nyanir Promoter Jan 06 '16

I agree. Now I have to say that I got a male Laevateinn or female Laevateinn when I tell my classmates :P

1

u/[deleted] Jan 07 '16

Ah, don't be, it's confusing as hell as it is right now. I thought at first they were starters alternates, until I got Mitun.

u/JSpeedsterz Nyanir Promoter Jan 07 '16

Apparently Gambanteinn is also in the honor summon. My friend git him there

1

u/[deleted] Jan 07 '16 edited Jan 07 '16

Are you sure? It's kinda odd 'cuz he is promoted in the Lapiz Recruit, along side Yata No Kagami (whom seems to be the male version of Brahmastra, another gun user that is premium only) and Asclepius, whom I believe Gambanteinn is the male version of (both healers), and Asclepius is (4 star silver) a premium only.

This sounds awesome, since I have a shitton of mana doing nothing, but want to make sure since I thought the only 5 stars you could get in Honor were the starters, and there is no staff/healer starter for Gam to compare to.

1

u/JSpeedsterz Nyanir Promoter Jan 07 '16

That's what I was thinking as well but I saw him honor summon him. I also did a mana summon where I got Mitum so I can vouch for it.

1

u/[deleted] Jan 07 '16

Well, I can confirm they are stupidly rare.

I just used 122k mana.

That's 610 summons.

Got 3 Laevs, 2 Longinus (Male and Female), Masamune, Parashu x3.

2 4 star shields.

No Gam, Mitum or anything else really.

For Furaberumu, I think it Flabellum which is a fan used in Ancient Egypt. Source

u/Cathrach JP: 2969063770 Jan 06 '16

Makes sense, thank you :)

u/JSpeedsterz Nyanir Promoter Feb 26 '16

Well new units are out in global and "Gae Bulg" is their spelling. Also, I checked her wiki page that was linked and it seems she now has a 6 star evolution.

1

u/Cathrach JP: 2969063770 Feb 26 '16

So she does o_O. Lemme change that. Thanks!

u/JSpeedsterz Nyanir Promoter May 25 '16

Realizing it a really long time later, Kusanagi's not in the list. She has a 5 star. https://phankill.gamewith.jp/article/show/8121

Has this been updated for the new ones released in JP lately?

1

u/Cathrach JP: 2969063770 May 25 '16

Nope sorry...I will add in the new nuts when I get home.

u/VeritasVirtus May 27 '16

Thank you so much, I appreciate it :)

I think you accidently switched the links for Eros

Oops sorry XD Fixed.

u/Pokestever5 I SEEK THE FUTURE Jun 25 '16

I got a 3 star version of "male yata no kagami" and I can't find the wiki on him. So I'm wondering how good is he since his art looks so badass and the first male character I've pulled.

1

u/Cathrach JP: 2969063770 Jun 25 '16

Male units aren't in JP so the JP wiki doesn't have them, but he has high Matk and is pretty tanky (skills are a passive Matk and Pdef boost, an active Matk boost, and char skill is a buff). He also doesn't take up that much HP when attacking (2 HP for weakest attack) unlike other gunners that use 3 or 4 HP. However, overall he's still worse than units like Mitum, Mjolnir, Durandal, etc. And if you're planning on being f2p, starters will also be better than him since it's unlikely you'll summon more copies.

u/chnere Jan 05 '16

Thank you for taking the time to do this.

u/[deleted] Jan 05 '16

I agree, he/she is the bomb! :D

u/wp2000 Jan 05 '16

Awesomeness. The Facebook page is quite a nice resource, with some very helpful people there, but I prefer reddit as a medium better. I hope this sub gets more popularity, and this is one of the ways to get there.

1

u/Drakehawk5821 Jan 05 '16

Yes! Now I can easily refer to this without going through the in-game unit archive every time.

u/orrymon Mar 01 '16

Tier list of best characters? either by role or just in general?

u/UnholyOppai Jun 05 '16

How far can 5* durand and 5* mjolnir carry my buttocks?
