Nice. I'm sure I'll enjoy that when it comes to global in like... probably over a year, I would guess.

Yep. She and Saren are the 6 star upgrades for the 2.5 anniversary next year. So they should be around next August.

I'm just curious about Akino because, well, she laughs in the middle of the fight.
I think it is a neat 'feature', similar to how Monika is the only one I have that brings out an actual gun.
And somehow I have a lot of her shards. I think it was from the Summer Mifuyu event?

Good to know she and Mama Saren gets better.

Do any Eroica players know why some flocks of birds have a single purple one? Seems too distinct to just be aesthetic

Wait what the actual fuck? I dont understand something in Opera Omnia. I tried out that Claw Cray or whatever raid boss, and discovered his very annoying gimmick. I tried to see if I could bypass it by just one-shotting them with Lightnings Gestalt Drive, and sure enough, that worked. But then it came to Terra

I did her thing where she does a team attack with Kuja, but then it went into the quasi-Burst mode where she gets 6(?) consecutive turns. It said Overkill from the attack, but since enemies die after the turns are over, the asshole of a boss kept regenerating HP after he died, so after the turns were up, he was still alive, with that annoying aura active. So I had to restart, and just spam Brave attacks during her Burst until Trance Ultima came up and I could OHKO him <_<

I'm not proud of the fact that I took the time to do this... fuck I'm doubly not proud that I noticed I'm missing a head D:

You can toss a fire orb at the purple one and get an enhancing material.

That is... mean :<

EoM still hasn't given a peek of a new banner info and I'm not sure whether to spend 17550 crystals for 2 guaranteed 4* in a banner I'm meh about.

I decided to uninstall any games without skip tickets for the time being. So right now I'm really only playing Priconne and reinstalled KonoSuba due to the 1 year anniversary. I kept EROICA to see if/when they finally release a new unit and have their first event, but it's also on the chopping block. They need to make skip tickets A LOT more accessible.

Yeah, not being able to skip is ridiculous in this day and age of gachas. They should just make skips free tbh.

Also, hooray for Counterside getting a Code Geass collab :D

Not sure how thats gonna work though. Besides Suzaku and Kallen, I dont think any of the main characters are really fighters. Unless theyre gonna bring in bigass Knightmares lol

For anyone who's been playing Azur Lane longer than me, how often do new ships get added to permanent construction? I prioritized getting two Elite ships I wanted from Wishing Well instead of the Operation Convergence trio so knowing my luck I've probably wasted my chance to pull for Brunhilde. Even if I use gems to try and pull for her I'm probably just gonna disappoint myself because my stupid shipbuilding luck only ever seems to apply for ships I'm not specifically looking for.

Roughly a year after the event itself. Smaller events like this one are sometimes sooner. They will rerun the event once before going to permanent construction.

Epic Seven has a 10 free summon a day thing for the anniversary.

Looking forward to getting a bunch of dupe artifacts.

They look pretty good as pirates.

How's the game doing? I noticed that there are two Discord servers with usually only a little over 1k users online at any given time between the two combined.

Still whaley (they implemented stat boost serum that you can get from selling low rarity characters on top of event and giveaway/login rewards) but for casuals like me, it is still enjoyable.

Some events and difficulties are just unreachable for me, though. Like the last floor of Twillwool Tower.

JP audience for this game fares better as far as I know.

edit: see that 4* guaranteed? They recently implemented it. Not sure whether it is here to stay, though. It's been two banners still.

I got this good number, but it didn't last u_u

Also got enough shards to recruit Shizuru, but I opt to wait.
Who knows she can come from the gacha- /copium

(Not like I have the mana to level her, anyway).

I know that feel. I held off on recruiting Tomo with shards for months on the off-chance she would come to me while pulling for other characters. She never did, so when I got to the point where I had enough shards to unlock her and 5-star her, I just bit the bullet and got her with shards.

Yo wtf @ this pull lmao

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/user_image/9/7/9/AARLwzAADnrz.jpg

In Space Leaper: Cocoon, is there an ingame way to check every character's class, aside from their stats? Like, I can infer that high defense units are defenders, that the slime chick goes in the back row maybe, and that this one unit dressed like a fanservicey kunoichi is an Assassin, but it'd be nice if there was a more concrete indicator. Haven't played this game much and I'm not really used to the UI yet.

Only took four of the 17 free rolls I saved. Then I proceeded to get three more dupes of her.

Unfortunately, every other rainbow I pulled was also a dupe. RIP Summer Kyouka.

Hell, I still don't fucking have Angel Akari or Lovely Monika, and now I have to add Vampy, Summer Yui, Festival Yuni/Chloe (but not Chieru since I actually got her on rate-up way back then), Stage Misaki, Phantom Thief Inori, Cinderella Maho, Christmas Rino, and Noir Io/Kuuka to that list of wants. Ridiculous that I keep getting useless dupes after three damn PriFes.

998. Nine hundred and ninety-eight tickets plus 100 more pulls from gems just to get a single copy of Lunafreyas BT weapon. Never have I ever had such cursed luck in all my life :<

How many gems are required to spark in Priconne? I'm sitting on over 80k at the moment and want to plan ahead according to the release roadmap, assuming this is accurate in both release and priority.

45k atm (300 pulls). It'll be reduced to 30k (200 pulls) at some point, but I don't remember exactly when (3rd anniversary I think?).

Those recommendations are accurate enough, but that's the 6 star release schedule, not a banner schedule or recommendation. It has nothing to do with pulls. The easiest to reference schedule for upcoming banners is here: https://fansubbing.com/priconne-upcoming-banner-list/

It doesn't give pull recommendations though, so you'll have to look elsewhere if you want a more detailed pull recommendation.

EoM now has a high-level quest where you can only use each character twice to clear multiple floors of a tower.

Beneficial to those who leveled sufficiently many people.

With a time limit of a minute per stage.

And another 5* character at the end of it.

Ah, I overlooked that part. This pic looks like what I'm looking for (maybe?). I'll use your link to match up the dates, so thanks for that.

Can you upload those pics to Imgur and link to them that way? GameFAQs' built-in embedder shrinks images like crazy and I can barely read it at all.

True, these are hard to read all the small text.

I turned off image embedding at some point personally, so I'm not entirely sure what it looks like on the page. Can you right click and open the image in a new tab to see if that helps?

It's still a bit fuzzy when I view the images, but I can read it on my computer at least.

Edit:
The first image is just a screenshot of the first page of Chocolate's UE/6* guide (same guide writer who updates the gear guide we generally reference), so you can always open that if you want a more readable version: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/e/2PACX-1vQhgyX9t1IJ1dafnjksIg09cy0Wv_NiYZM3THtNjgtWD6WZSQPt0R_aVlFI-K-HnshqJndkyppihGfL/pubhtml#
Not sure who or where the second one is from.

Got my first 6-star ascension today. The trial battle was annoying as hell.

https://i.imgur.com/fisKg8q.jpg

Oh yeah, that's also a thing. Apparently I share my birthday with Ninon too. That's neat.

I want my 1st 6* to be imouto but I procrastinated on clearing areas.

(Still @ 17-something)

And Miyako became my 1st character reaching Rank 11 because RNG is weird.

That purple border is so pretty though.

Did anyone else notice how in Eroica that quest to kill 9 Dargons is poorly worded? Because it's clear that they meant to finish 9 encounters, given that there are usually 3 waves of 3-4 enemies, which would finish the quest then and there. Also you have to finish the stage for it to count for some reason, which also isn't mentioned in the description :<

Gacha games and poorly worded descriptions, name a more iconic duo

I'm a good adult!

gonna get Halloween Kyouka

Crossing Void is shutting down at the end of October, and I must say good riddance. That game was a shitshow. You couldn't see how much stamina you had unless you used some, tanks were useless as hell since there was no taunt and characters always attacked a specific area, and there was a fucking 99 second time limit per turn, even in SINGLE PLAYER modes <_<

I mean the tank thing wouldn't normally bother me because I usually don't use them, but since I love Valkyria Chronicles, Selvaria was my favorite character. And she was dogshit because she was useless. She couldn't do anything to keep the team alive, and as expected of most tanks, her damage was subpar.

Pulling for Halloween Kyouka.

90k jewels.

I actually forgot the event starts today, and I've spent all stamina (from daily missions) for double drop equipment. >_>

Now I have to use jewels to clear the stages. Oh well, at least it refunds as I clear the stages.

Oh hey, I noticed a couple QoL upgrades in Eroica. Now on Arkham the experience will be red if you don't have enough to upgrade something. Before only materials that you lacked were red and experience was always white. And now they show you what wave you're on. Before they didn't even show how many waves there were in total :<

So is Nintendo just getting out of the gacha business aside from Fire Emblem Heroes? First they shut down Dragalia Lost, now they're going to completely remove any and all gacha elements from Mario Kart Tour and move to a direct purchase shop model for the game's characters. I've never in all of my time playing mobile games seen a gacha game un-gacha itself while still staying online before.

Nintendo does not like gacha style monetization because their main audience is predominantly kids and they're genuinely concerned about the optics of mining kids for cash. FEH has a slightly older target demo so they get away with it there. Mario Kart however is intended to be played by 1st graders.

The Counterside PC client is up on steam, btw. It runs pretty well!

That makes sense. I don't remember if that mobile Animal Crossing game had any gacha aspects either.

It kinda did but not really? You could buy nets and the stuff you got was random but it was more like a speed up rather than gacha because nets recharged on their own.
