Current Events > Gacha Game General Topic 15: ''Why do we still roll? Just to suffer?''

(+) Yeah! (+)

Reroll is pure hell imo. I didn't do it at all in Priconne and I don't regret it (didn't get anyone particularly good).

---

Also, I forgot to mention this: if you're not already, do your re-rolls on the premium banner rather than the focus banner. The banner character (Arisa in this case) having increased rates makes it less likely to get off-banner girls like Makoto.

WOWWWW I put Tinia into the training room and this happened:

Yeah I saw this and was wondering how the f you even got that score lol. But Earth def has a lot of dps centric champs. Tinia in general is also a great team dps enhancer cuz she lays down constant def breaks. My flimsy ass Earth team still pulls 1 mil+ probably mostly from Tinia

---

FINALLY



---

I got her as the freebie. Does that mean I can save my starting 3k gems or should I use them too?

---

I'd use them and do a handful of rolls in general to help get some picks for a well rounded team. And don't dismiss 1* and 2*, a lot of them are really useful as well, like Yui and Miyako.

I'd use them so you have some more solid characters to use. I tried going with only Makoto and the starters for a while, but Karyl is bad all around and Pecorine isn't a decent tank until you can ascend her to 2 stars, but there are other tanks better than her.

People say to go for Makoto, but as in any gacha, I always reroll for waifu. Its up to you though

I didn't want Makoto and Maho for meta though, I just wanted to finish my beastfolk harem.

Like I said before though, the Rin banner was awfully generous with giving me almost every other *3 but the ones I wanted along with a shitton of dupes.

My last roll before it ended gave me 4 Hatsunes.

Karyl is decent in PVP for now, and an OK mage option for non-boss PVE, though both are contingent on getting her to higher stars, which costs dungeon coins that are probably better spent elsewhere for new players (i.e. Yukari or Nozomi).

At the very least, investing in the starters isn't a bad option, since they should be among the first 6 stars that get unlocked. Though I do agree that Veggeta should do some rolls for other characters, since the starters are a bit too Magikarp-y to rely on entirely.

Double yay. I got Graf Zeppelin, and as a result, got enough Iron Blood points to start developing Mainz :3

...I feel dumb. I didnt realize that you could set which shards you wanted when you do rifts in Guardian Tales D:

I was just like oh how nice they guarantee at least one of the rare character ones now. I didnt see that it was set automatically and I could change it lol

Yeah I think even though the supposed average is the same, it feels like I can complete them faster now. There's definitely less variance, like now there's a fixed amount of maximum runs

---

Being able to set the shards is really nice. I kinda wish we could "opt out" of rare shards for more normal shards though. Evolving normal heroes is somehow harder than evolving unique ones.

---

I kinda wish we could just auto stages from the start instead of having to clear them once. And was there a particular reason they reset everything back to the first floor <_<

You mean for the evolution stones? Because previously every unique hero had their own stage and it was getting cluttered so they deleted them all and replaced them with a single stage per element that you can choose the rewards for.

---

Couldn't they have just like added the selection :<

Well then you'd have multiple identical stages in the same list and it would be kinda confusing.

Look at it this way it's free new first clear rewards.

---

Cal, you were right. Even though I dropped the game, I think I'm gonna take a look into the anime because of this. In fact just the first clip was enough lol

If any of yall are play Tales of Crestoria; they just released a fucking new quests that only Whales can complete. You need a fully Awakened team equipped with Ascended SSR stones and you'll also be using Gems to revive to complete them. Fucking bullshit.

This is what Guardian Tales does on the regular I just ignore it and move on. The rewards for beating them usually suck anyway.

She's alive! Ashley Taylor, who was the exclusive magical girl in the (now dead and I'm still salty about it) EN version of Magia Record, is finally making her way to the JP version. The players who migrated to JP after EN's unfortunate demise are all very happy right now, and I'm happy for them.

Hell yeah! PriConne's anime is fantastic. It's like Konosuba (same director, same bubbly animation, same hilarious comedy) but with an actual animation budget, and it was one of the unexpected gems of 2020 for me.

Lmao. So

There was a thread on r/gachagaming about toxic gacha subs to avoid. I wrote that 7DS Grand Cross was the only gacha sub I've ever unsubbed because it's so toxic. I even said that the game did have flaws but every time content dropped there'd be a flood of complaint threads and it got so tiring to go through that sub. Then two dudes literally wrote essays calling me a white knight for the game even though I quit lol

Anyways I got into Romancing Saga Reuniverse again. It's grindy af and a bit archaic in it's design (no repeat battles, no skip tix, no 2x/3x speed) but...there's just something so damn charming about it lol

Random thing I've been wanting to ask for a while, but in Arknights, why does Ceobe look like she's drunk all the time?

She probably is. Her files says she eats/drinks anything she finds so bound to be a fair amount of booze in that.

Also probably just the art style >.>

---

So what am I supposed to do with the shards in PCR?

---

Shards are used for unlocking and ascension. If you get enough, you can unlock the girl if you haven't pulled her in the gacha yet, or if you have pulled her you can increase her star rating and stats.

I took a break from Priconne for a few days but I think I'm gonna come back to the game. I was thinking of dropping it. Probably gonna skip the event to catch up on grinding out all the gear. Also waiting so long to do Princess Arena was a huge mistake. >_>;

Also, did we get the clan battle rewards yet?

---

Princess Kyaru is the next PriFes in JP.

And Cinderella Girls is being rerun next month.

Also, I love Nakayoshi Club is trending, for some reason.

https://twitter.com/tencha_s_o_i/status/1363347598187274242

Took me over a year and a half to get these, then I get them on one daily pull on consecutive days. Game's whack.

How do you use the shards?

Veggeta X posted...

How do you use the shards?

All the characters have an ascension tab in the character select that tells you how many more shards you need to ascend. When you have enough shards to unlock a character they will appear in the character menu with "Ready to unlock!" captioned, so you'll know when you can unlock them. When you roll the the gacha and get dupes, you get divine amulets which has its own tab in the shop. There you can exchange for shards of any character you already have unlocked, but you shold save that for shards you can't farm for limited characters. There are also 2x shard drop events occasionally.

You need 145 shards or so to unlock a character, and the amount of ascend (raise their star rating) depends on how many stars they're at already. Going from 1 to 2 stars takes 30 shards. Some 1 star characters need to be at least 2 or 3 before being usable and some characters aren't optimally usable until 6 stars.

Question about Tirpitz...Can you get her through the Divergent Chessboard in the War Archives, or do I have to wait for a rerun? Because I know it says you get her through the event shop, but the Archives don't seem to have that :<

The War Archive doesn't have a shop, and once an event is in the Archives it will never be rerun again. The only way to get Tirpitz right now is to get lucky in the Heavy gacha.

Oh wait, shes at least in the pool though? Thats good; I just about had a heart attack when you said it would never be rerun again lol. Better a slim chance than none at all :3

What about Bismarck? Will I have to wait for her event rerun or for it to be added to the archives before shes added to the gacha?

---

Weve already got a rerun of Bismarcks event, so have to wait until its put in the archive.

---

Drat. Do they get put in the pool at the same time their event goes in the Archives?

For anyone interested Last Cloudia is having a second collab with Dr. Stone starting March 2nd. On top of the first three characters(Senku, Kohaku, and Tsukasa) Gen and Chrome will be added. You're guaranteed to get one of them for free.

Plus the 2 year anniversary is in April.

I'm glad LC got away from Crunchy's grimy masturbation hand, but I'm a bit afraid to dive back into it again lol. I still thought that it lacked a bit of a strategic flair just in terms of anything CR hasn't been able to influence, like the core mechanics. Well I'll try it out again if I ever get randomly bored. I'm hoping my account stayed intact

Hold the phone, I swear I saw the weirdest thing happen. Heinrichs Hunch Punch activated, but after those red diamond things pulled back, they went...up. Just straight up. I thought they always pull back, pause, then go straight forward??

How well have the Dr. Stone units held up since they originally released? I pulled everything from the DMC collab so I may skip this banner considering the anniversary isn't too far off.

Yeah the community pretty much came together and begged AIDIS to cut ties with CR, and though it took a few months, they finally did. As for strategy, most content doesn't really require or demand it. It's basically go in and kill things as fast as possible. Only real exceptions are when it comes to arena, the Tower of Trials, Superbosses, and on rare occasions an event boss may require a specific build or unit like a breaker.

I personally didn't get any of the Dr. Stone units from the first collab, so my knowledge is limited. What I can say is for awhile Senku was the number 1 offensive support/debuffer for close to a year and is still used today.

Kohaku was/is a top tier wave clearer, she was/is incredibly fast and pretty powerful. Tsukasa you don't really see much of anymore, and you didn't see much of him to begin with, so I can't really comment on him. Senku, Kohaku, and Tsukasa are getting buffs this time, but what those buffs are aren't known yet.

We have no info on Gen or Chrome yet as they're new which won't happen until possibly next week.

Senku and Kohaku definitely hold up today, though they have fallen behind a bit because of powercrept, which is to be expected considering it's been close to a year since they initially released. Their buffs could bring them back into the spotlight though.

Lmfao, well it's definitely been an eternity since I thought about that game. I wouldn't mind visiting it some time later. I'm considering a bunch of older games I used to play to indulge in for a few days, but it's not an easy decision cuz my phone only has 2.5 gb of space left

Remember to get your Guardian Tales dailies done early today
