So, you’re ready to dive into the strategic depths of Loomian Legacy and learn how to teach your Loomians new tricks through rallying? Excellent! The process might seem a bit intricate at first, but with this guide, you’ll be rallying like a pro in no time. In essence, you learn rally moves by strategically using a Leader Loomian (one that already knows the desired move) and an Assistant Loomian (the one you want to teach the move to) in the Rally Ranch. The Leader passes down moves to the Assistant, expanding its combat capabilities. This method allows you to customize your team and optimize their move sets for any challenge. Now, let’s break down the process and answer some common questions.
Understanding the Rallying Mechanics
The Leader and the Assistant
The core of rallying revolves around two key roles: the Leader and the Assistant. The Leader Loomian is the one that already possesses the move you want to teach. Certain Loomians are ineligible to be Leaders, such as Roaming Loomians, Event-exclusives and Legendaries. The Assistant Loomian is the one that will learn the move. To initiate the process, place a suitable Loomian as the Leader. When selecting the assistant, make sure the loomian has an empty move slot.
How to Rally
-
Access the Rally Ranch: Head to the Rally Ranch in Sepharite City.
-
Talk to Mr. Rally: Speak with Mr. Rally to initiate the rallying process. Select “Yes” when prompted, and he will open the rally setup interface.
-
Choose the Leader: Place a Loomian that already knows the desired move into the Leader slot. Note: some Loomians cannot be in the Leader spot.
-
Choose the Assistant: Place the Loomian you want to learn the move into the Assistant slot. Make sure the Assistant has an empty move slot to learn the new move.
-
Start Rallying: After confirming your selections, the rallying process will begin. This takes time; the article mentioned a minute per move.
Rally Cycles and Time
The time it takes for an Assistant to learn a move isn’t instantaneous. It’s governed by rally cycles. Each species has a different number of rally cycles required. Base cycle is 24 seconds. Using Rally Charm reduces it to 18 seconds.
The “Alternate Method”
Loomians that cannot be Leaders, like Legendaries and Event-exclusives, can still learn rally moves. This is done through the “alternate method,” where the Loomian is placed in the Assistant slot while a compatible Leader teaches it the move.
Maximizing Your Rallying Potential
Rally Charms
To enhance your rally efforts, consider using the Rally Charm. This charm reduces the time required for each rally cycle by 25%, speeding up the learning process considerably.
Gleaming Loomians and Rallying
Good news for collectors! Gleaming Loomians can be rallied, opening up opportunities to create powerful and visually unique teams. The chance of getting a gleaming starter is 1/4096. If you own the Gleam Charm, you have a chance of 1/2048.
Secret Abilities and Rallying
If you’re looking to pass down Secret Abilities, know that it’s possible! Loomians with Secret Abilities can be rallied with a 1/256 chance, which is boosted to 1/128 with the Ability Charm.
Rallying and Strategy
Rallying isn’t just about learning new moves; it’s about strategic team composition. Consider the type matchups and coverage provided by the moves you’re teaching. A well-rallied team can overcome challenges that a naturally-leveled team might struggle with. Remember the Games Learning Society and their approach to learning through play – rally moves let you apply that to Loomian Legacy. More details can be found on the GamesLearningSociety.org website.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
1. Can starter Loomians be rallied?
Yes, starter Loomians can be rallied. You can put any Loomian of your choice (some Loomians cannot be in the Leader spot) into the Leader spot of rallying.
2. Can Legendaries learn moves through rallying?
Yes, but not as Leaders. Legendaries, along with Event-exclusives, can only receive moves through the “alternate method” by being placed in the Assistant slot and learning from a Leader.
3. What are the chances of rallying a Gleaming Loomian?
The base chance of encountering a Gleaming Loomian through rallying is 1/4096. This chance is improved to 1/2048 if you own the Gleam Charm.
4. What exactly does a Rally Assistant do?
A Rally Assistant learns moves from the Rally Leader. If the Leader knows multiple moves the Assistant can learn, the Assistant will learn them randomly, one at a time. This is crucial for teaching moves to Loomians that can’t be Leaders themselves.
5. How long does it take to rally one Loomian?
The time depends on the Loomian’s species’s required number of rally cycles. Each rally cycle takes 24 seconds, or 18 seconds if you have the Rally Charm.
6. Can Gleaming Loomians pass down moves through rallying?
Yes, Gleaming Loomians can be Leaders and pass down moves, just like any other Loomian.
7. Can I rally Ikazune?
Yes, but only as an Assistant. Ikazune is a Roaming Loomian and can only learn moves from a Leader while being the Rally Assistant with an open move slot.
8. Does gender matter for rallying?
No, specific genders of Loomians are not required for rallying.
9. Can rallying make a Loomian Gleaming?
Yes, it is possible to obtain a Gleaming Loomian through rallying, although the chance remains at the base rate (1/4096 or 1/2048 with the Gleam Charm).
10. How rare is rallying a Loomian with a Secret Ability?
Loomians with Secret Abilities can be rallied with a 1/256 chance, boosted to 1/128 with the Ability Charm.
11. Does a Loomian learn the move instantly when rallying?
No, the Loomian doesn’t learn the move instantly. The time for a Loomian to rally depends on its species’s required number of rally cycles.
12. Can rallied Loomians also be rallied?
Yes, once a Loomian has learned a new move through rallying, it can then be used as a Leader to teach that move to other Loomians, if it is a species capable of being a Leader.
13. What happens if my Assistant Loomian already has four moves?
If your Assistant Loomian already has four moves, it cannot learn any new moves through rallying until it forgets one of its existing moves.
14. Can a Leader Loomian rally a move to multiple Assistants simultaneously?
No, a Leader Loomian can only rally a move to one Assistant Loomian at a time.
15. Does the level of the Leader Loomian affect the rallying process?
No, the level of the Leader Loomian does not affect the rallying process or the speed at which the Assistant learns the move. The only factors affecting the speed are the species-specific rally cycles and the Rally Charm.
With these insights, you’re well-equipped to master rallying in Loomian Legacy. Happy rallying, and may your team be ever victorious!
