Current Events > Gacha Game General Topic 13: ''Redeemed in the second arc of the story''

(+) Yeah! (+)

Pretty good start to the day. Also got Prinz Heinrich(x2) and Weser.

---

Yeesh, already an event that requires Lostbelt 3 done? Can't say I feel motivated.

Wait, why are Kiara and Amelia leading it, Inas the whale of the group.

Then again, Amelia did do that (SPONSORED) Shadowverse rating thing.

I just found out about an upcoming gacha game getting an English release called Birdie Crush, and as an avid fan of golf video games (despite being absolute garbage at real golf and not actually watching much golf on TV) I'm definitely checking this out when it launches.

Kiara is a gacha addict as well tbf. Would've expected her and Ina though yeah, but then maybe Ame is one as well. Don't watch enough of her to know. Wonder if this means they'll be in it at all (doubtful from what I can see) or just promoting it. Is it actually any good?

Late Christmas in Guardian Tales but the event is alright so far. I love the skifree guy. I wonder what the challenge stages are the event seems to be light on characters.

I pulled Rue lmao. Took 40 pulls. I barely just built her and all I can say is, I can already see that she's a massive DPS powerhouse, because she's doing a ton with a random yellow 5* weapon and at 3* in terms of char evo with only the middle node completed.

Also possibly the funniest fucking thing about her is that her weapon is called Terminator

and her firing pattern is DooDoo Doo DooDoo... DooDoo Doo DooDoo

---

I have no way to raise Rue right now and I can't give up Garam. If I pulled her I guess I'd train her for a hot minute to lock in the 50% event sweep bonus and then immediately switch back to Garam for 600 gems total.

---

I pulled Garam from the Future Princess banner, and he's been woefully neglected. But one day I might have to build him. Initially I was gonna recall Vish so I can max LB Beth immediately, but lately I've been just considering just holding off in anticipation that I might need a fire hero. I don't have a water hero either so Garam might end up filling that role

Really tempted to ticket for Rue's weapon though because I utterly love her everything, but I'm not sure it'd be wise overall. Might just have to see after the monthly epic wep pull

---

I've got 2 maxed out fire units. Thinking about resetting Plitvice so that I can max out someone else from an element that I don't have anyone maxed for.

Plitvice has been amazing for progression but with the introduction of sweeps she's not really necessary anymore.

---

Well tried to get bluestacks working for PriConnect to see if it is any good and the thing just refuses to work on my computer no matter what I do, so guess I'll be waiting until it comes out properly. Just hangs on 95% and tried all the fixes that come up searching the issue to no luck.

Oh well.

I've been playing the PriConne soft launch okay on my phone, but the game crashes when I try to buy anything from the jewel shop. I asked about it on the subreddit, and one of the people there said they couldn't buy from the shop on their phone either, but it worked for them when they loaded the game on BlueStacks and linked their account there too... so apparently it does work on BlueStacks for other people somehow.

I am almost done with high dragon trials forever. I need about 1000 more zodiark tails that I'm hoping to farm later this week and I will have all weapon bonuses for high dragon weapons.

Unless the raise the fafnir cap or something. That would be terrible.

---

Yay! I got Prinz Underboob :D



---

And would you look at that, other fox waifu came home. This gives me hope for getting W :D



---

Hey Dx2 people, I need an opinion on my party. Given that I only have 3 spaces left (Motoko waifu is a must), whos most deserving of the remaining spots: Quetzacoatl or however the hell you spell that, Red Rider, Seth, or Samael, AKA Slifer. Im thinking of booting Seth because hes so slow and only has physical attacks/ Force but his magic is booty. At the very least RR can set up bind for Motoko and can deal % damage, Quet covers a lot of elements, and Slifer repels light/dark, heals, and has a counter.

It doesnt necessarily need to be optimal, but just in general.

Well, now that I unlocked skill transfer, I need opinions on what to give Motoko lol. She's that type with Myriad Arrows and Phys Pierce. I'm looking at the beginner's Wiki that has a list of recommended skills, and was leaning towards Phys Amp. I kinda want that one skill that does Almighty damage and heals 40% since I like draining skills and 5 MP isn't too bad, but that's magic damage :<

Honestly, I'm not great at team-building or min-maxing when it comes to mobile games, which is probably a large part of why I get roadblocked on them so often and for so long until I eventually break down and look up a guide to clear a mission or event.

It's not my fault that my waifus and favorites are never meta or want to synergize.

I have that same problem. People on the Discord were getting all pissy because I didnt want to use SilverAsh because hes not waifu material lol. Then again that channel is the one that literally whines and calls in mods to delete things instead of just saying that it belongs somewhere else.

The Arknights Discord is shit lol

---

Oh god, the arknights discord.

Never and I repeat NEVER use it for anything other than guides for events basically. It makes CE look like a cuddly soft play pen. Almost feel inclined to just leave it and use the reddit most of the time.

EDIT: I saw in another comment that the EN version apparently requires a "64bit" (whatever that means) version of BlueStacks and not the normal "32bit" version.

Yeah, the issue I'm having. Trying to make a 64 instance results in it never doing it despite setting everything up properly, turning visualisation on etc. Oh well, a shame might not be able to build anything up before it properly releases but maybe I'll see about doing it on my phone later.

This is why I wish more gachas were like Venus Eleven. Every character was equally viable and you could field a team of whoever you wanted. Had no interest in soccer, but I loved it for that feature.

---

Relieved that I was able to pull her without having to reroll, especially considering I was able to get SilverAsh on my initial summon. Should I continue pulling for Weedy or pull on the Exclusive Headhunting Service banner?



---

Got Weser, but it's a trial to do anything with all the crashes. Can't even get into that event outfit thing for Harutsuki or whoever.

I actually like Ambriel now because of her infinite range lol. Its just that at the time I was going for someone (I think Chen) so getting 5 of the same non-Chens was a kick in the nads :<

But I got this pull to make up for it :3

okay I didn't get quite anything on that level but I did get W, a W dupe, and Weedy all within 55 pulls

It's great to get what I wanted, but I almost feel let down by all the saving I did lol. what do I do with the extra 125 rolls I have now?

if you think you can get another ~60 rolls on the Weedy banner since your last 6*, you have a chance at her. Weedy is kind of a weird unit, fairly stage-dependent, but seems to be very highly regarded (the English tier list has her as one of the six S+ units). I mostly wanted her cause she's really cute.

Okay, finally done. Of all the days for the receptionist to call in sick, it has to be when I want to pull for major waifu. Let the pulls begin, and not stop until I get W :D

---

Well I got Weedy from my first 11 rolls which were the free roll plus 10 tickets.

---

Didn't get W or Weedy (yet) but did have a pretty good turnout from the 70 rolled so far. Lapland finally, Click, Utage, Elysium to dupe 5 and a fifth copy of Myrtle to go with him for dp SPEED. Did get a 6 star in Hellagur which is... nice, I guess. Sad it wasn't W or Weedy though and not sure will have enough for another chance at a 6 star but we'll see I guess.

Weedy seems great as her t3 ability is true damage along with knockback, then can deploy her turret for SUPER pushback, making Shaw and FEater obsolete largely.

Congratulations.gif, you finally broke through the gacha misfortune lol
I did get Weedy on my fifth 10-roll, threw another 100ish at the banner only to get a Silverdud dupe (Who I never even trained lol), while I still have a good pile of Ori I might wait until the distinction shop resets before buying another set of draw tickets, but Weedy was my priority anyway so might just save for another banner /shrug
Speaking of extra rolls, or rather originium I also went and bought the Angelina and Lappland costumes, it's nice that you can get costumes in this game without having to explicitly spend money even if they don't have extra voice lines or stuff
Saria's got a pretty nice costume too but she's getting another costume per CN as well; decisions, decisions...

if you think you can get another ~60 rolls on the Weedy banner since your last 6*, including the 14 daily free rolls, then you have a chance at her. Weedy is kind of a weird unit, fairly stage-dependent, but seems to be very highly regarded (the English tier list has her as one of the six S+ units). I mostly wanted her cause she's really cute.

I mean, being able to instantly delete a full mob of the biggest units in the game in a second is pretty useful, she's kinda the only pusher specialist you can regularly bring to the frontline just because of that reason

On the GBF front I actually somehow got two Majestas in one day from being a TH bot lol, guess leeching is the way to go now that it's an 18-max raid
Also got Edgedalphone who breaks Earth balance in half but I'll probably never use him lol
Somewhat relatedly Shadowverse is having their Eternals-themed expansion now, it's kind of funny seeing animated voiced Eternals portraits happening first outside of the game they're actually from, this is the curse of GBF I guess lol

Well if you already have Shaw/FE's S1 mastered for a regular push job in a stage there's no need to really go out of your way to specialize Weedy's as well to be fair, you're largely bringing Weedy along for her S3 in most cases anyway

---

I did a crapton of pulls, and so many were just 4 star or lower <_<

---

Btw, for GT, if you clear the first stage of the xmas event, the shop will have a bundle you can buy for free. It's like 6000 free gems and a bunch of other stuff, but you get the rewards through the course of 2 weeks

---

Well they put in the refund request for $50. I wanted the $100 pack since it's probably closer to what I'm owed from buying tons of small $30 packs instead of a few $100 ones, but they said that the order was too old. That's fucking Yostar's fault because they kept telling me to wait <_<

---

What the fuck, I didn't know they were making a mobile version of Elona.

Oh god, depending on how good it is, I may never get anything productive done again.
---

It's kind of amazing that Elona is still going on after all these years

I've actually tried using s3 Weedy a bit on random stages and been underwhelmed so far, she didn't push the dying zombie guys back nearly as much as I was expecting, or do much damage. Granted she's not fully upgraded yet either.

I think the only costume I bought was Meteorite's, but she's been getting kind of displaced by W lol. Costume for Saria might not be bad but I might replace her with Blemishine? idk, I still have doubts about how well Blemishine will be able to perform. Speaking of healers, it's still kind of weird to me how even in CN I don't think they've released a single 6* Medic past the two that were there at the start of the game.

Incidentally, I like how the story is already hyping up Rosmontis even though she won't be playable for another 6 months in the CN release (hopefully less for international, it's been on a faster release schedule so they should catch up at some point).

Did a couple pulls on the new Mahiru banner for fun

Received a blessing on the free pull

How does an Iron Blood team sound? I have Prinz Eugen/Henrich, that chick that look like W, and Weser. Not sure who would take the last 2 spots...

Most iron blood teams revolve around Bismarck who is pretty solid and buffs everyone or the PR ships Roon, Friedrich, and Odin. You can make a frontline with the two Prinz ships and Leipzig, an uncommon rarity ship that buffs the other two. Other ships to look out for are Z1, Z23, and Z46. Z1 has a retrofit that buffs Z class Destroyers massively. Z23 is a starter ship that deals a ton of damage normally. Z46 is a hard to get ship but is pretty solid. Roon (pr) and Roon (muse) are both great frontliners.

For the backlines, Bismarck as mentioned, Tirpitz, Graf Zeppelin as carrier, the new Strasser, or the PR ships FDG and Odin.

Everyone else on Iron Blood is kind of meh. In real life they didn't have much of a navy to begin with. They have a much smaller roster compared to the other three major navies.

I think Prinz Heinrich is my new favorite ship.

I hit two big milestones in Tales Of Crestoria today. The major one is that, after ascending Velvet today, I now have a maxed level 100 SSR character for each element: Stahn for Fire, Kanonno for Water, Yuri for Earth, Velvet for Wind, Estelle (and Colette) for Light, and Ludger for Dark. I also have enough SSR characters at 90 (one ascension tier away from maxed) to make a "full" team for each element... and by "full" team, I of course mean three characters of whatever element I need for that battle and then Estelle for healing because her healing ability is just ridiculous. And secondly, I fully awakened Stahn (meaning I awakened him with duplicates or awakening stones enough times to unlock his awakened skill) making him my second fully awakened character behind Estelle. Even in battles where he doesn't have a type advantage, he hits like a truck because his stats are so high.

Between Estelle's healing, Stahn's insane power, and having a maxed SSR for each element, I'm pretty much set for any PvE content that Crestoria can throw at me for the foreseeable future. The only grinding I would need to do is for points during events, and that's nothing compared to the grind I had to do for the ascension material drops to get my characters to 100. I'm officially at "coasting speed" in both Crestoria and Revue Starlight ReLIVE, which is perfect because now I can put more time into PriConne and Birdie Crush once they fully launch.

It feels good.

Well I used up the rest of my luck for this year. 44 pulls in, and I'm relatively set.
No Elysium though

Changed my mind and decided to yolo pull for Hermit Mahiru, got her and a bonus 4-star that I didn't have with only 4,500 star gems spent.

https://i.imgur.com/2q2OzyV.jpg

I still have a stockpile of over 32,000 star gems stored away too. ReLIVE has been treating me very well recently.

I've actually been finding W surprisingly useful, those stuns with her s2 are huge even if she does less damage than Meteorite.

you can get him guaranteed if you put 75 rolls on the banner, though honestly I think Myrtle is probably going to be fine for most people and Elysium is also not a cute girl which is bad

hopefully when they add a 6* Utility Vanguard it'll swing back around to cute girl territory

Yeah I've been pulling for Peter and Captain Underboob, and so far have only gotten the latter. I'll be on the lookout for Bismark though.

I know, right?

Anyway, seems like the mobile version might be based on Elona+ (if the presence of the wealth goddess is any indication), but more importantly, it doesn't seem as though the mobile version is trying to censor anything, all of the lewd and outlandish humor and features have been intact so far.

Managed to grab my FGO bird waifu without having to spend, though at the cost of near-bankrupting my stock for the rest of the months offers, and getting spooked by multiple dudes isnt improving my mood either.

Stupid Achilles. Why dont you spook me in E*S instead?

Goddamn, did MGCM steal my luck or something?

Somehow got both Ultimate Akisa and 2021 Kokoa in one x10 roll each.

Worst 6 star luck ever on the W banner. Managed to get lucky with the daily free one and got the incredible luck of not getting the 70% chance for W/Weedy again. :(

Oh yeah New Years miracle or something, cuz in GT, the monthly epic eq bestows upon me the Terminator. My Rue is now a mainstay. I was this close to pulling for a wep too
