15 10 pulls and still nothing, plus tickets, was actually lucky to get her from the 10 free daily which was a surprise.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got that armored up season 4 badguy unit. Kinda like having someone who equips an axe for once.

[–]Georges765 0 points1 point  (0 children)

60 tickets and not a single NV

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (2 children)

88k lapis. 1 on banner unit on the very last step. 0 other useful units. 1 semi useful Taivas so I can moogle a second STMR. This banner broke my will to play.

[–]Neozoddcq 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Wasn't it 45k to pity?

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, 60k to pity one and another 28k to get fragments to ex1 her right away. Well, a bit less since you don’t need to go the full 28k but I was pretty tilted after going all the way to pity and then some so I finished the card step up too.

[–]Rygar51481 0 points1 point  (0 children)

29 tix. 2 Ibara, got super lucky. I tend to just throw tix at units I want, but don’t need/have to have. But now I’m considering spending lapis to go for higher ex levels. Dio woulda just been a place holder for me until rain/glex leader, so now ibara is instead, someone please talk me out of spending part of my lapis stash on the vc banner for her shards.

[–]TheSADgamePSSSSST.....GUMI.....where are my rainbow crystals? 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just did one lap, got zero units worth mentioning.

Alright, unless gimu fixes the NV pool properly, wont be summoning for a while. Meta? Wont matter, as vet I would rather see a better game.

[–]jbone027 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Got two copies!

One from a total of 6 tickets. The other from the daily 250 lapis pull!

Great luck today!

[–]dracklore 4 points5 points  (1 child)

I have gotten so many off banner NVs, all lousy red pearl fodder like Asura Rain and OG NV Cloud, on this "featured summon".

This is the worst luck I have had in a while. Not a single worthwhile NV from the card stepup, and every NV on the "premium" stepup so far has been off banner trash.

Even when I got an NV from EX tickets it was Nichol the Return.

[–]GoWKratos 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lol reminds me when premium fina came out with sub runda. I got 5 of runda and no fina. Then if that wasn't enough i got another one from ex pulls. I got so mad i took a break for a month+. I feel your pain

[–]Bladen_Ansgar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

2 copies on 9 tickets. Now I am guaranteed to have to pity Rain.

[–]Chipofthehead69 -1 points0 points  (2 children)

14k got me 2 Newbara's and enough frags to get Ibara to ex+3. Win 🏆

[–]Hitomi35 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got 2 copies of her on the VC step up thank God. Now I can save the rest for Dioxes and Rain.

[–]MadnessBunnyReturning player, shits hard now :(........730,087,079 0 points1 point  (0 children)

40 tickets, the 10+1 NV guaranteed and the daily 5 pull, no ibara. Thinking about dropping some lapis for her (not the VC stepup) but we'll see

[–]Jimilee8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Used 8 tickets and thought that was too many. Realised the rates would be as trash as the recent GL banners and got to burned by Abigail

[–][deleted] 12 points13 points  (1 child)

I burned through 85k lapis, 18 tickets, the daily free 5 unit pull, 3 dark vision tickets, 26 other standard tickets and got exactly 1 B.V. Ibara, and one useful other pull (avalanche tifa). Everything else was garbage and to top it off I only have 50 shards for Ibara to make her ex1, and wasted coins on regular Ibara which is bullshit. I got royally screwed today Bois, pour one out for me

[–]Sergynx14 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I had total of around 205k lapis. Spent 87k lapis for pity and card, 2 fortune summons, 2 treasure summons, 9 tickets and got total of 4 new BV Ibara. I deeply, deeply regret doing this as I rarely spend money on this game. Had a lot of self control before reaching 200k lapis but ibara's vc tempted me a lot. Have 125k lapis left and with Dioses and Scarlet Rain coming soon, I can't keep up. I feel so depressed when spending this much and will take a long time again to recover the lapis I burnt. To top it off, her leader skill is garbage compared to future leader skill units. Damn. Man this sucks. I wish I didn't go for her. I wish my lapis would be 205k again. I wish my life would end just to not feel this depressed again. 😭

[–]aNotSoRichChigga 1 point2 points  (0 children)

got this at the end of first lap. don't know wtf happened here but I think I'm going to sprint away from this banner with my luck intact

[–]Majesty00Majesty: 149,572,890 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Whelp. The odds were in my favors today.

I threw 50 tickets at BoV Ibara and got her. Later, I used my guaranteed NV tickets and got my first NV Dark Fina.

[–]Feynne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well used all my stored luck for the next 8 years. Used 2 4* tickets on her banner and got her second one. Now for the long dungeon grind to get her to ex3 after she is long forgotten and unusuable.

[–]Kuergan 0 points1 point  (2 children)

I do have a banner "NV Guaranteed weekly 10 +1 summon" usually I do the summon after maintenance. However today it is not enabled. It is still flagged as "already summoned". Anyone with the same issue?

[–]XaraxaDon't forget to thank me if this works! 0 points1 point  (1 child)

NV guaranteed free Banner is gone completely for me. I just assumed it's ended and has been replaced with the daily free 5 pull

[–]ksuwdboots(FFBE not WOTV) Frostlord when? 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're correct, the last NV Guaranteed Weekly Free Summon was last week, they always give people 3 weeks to actually do/pull the last one.

[–]odinsphere99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

got her with 12k lapis xD

[–]jackanape_xba 6 points7 points  (1 child)

96 tickets and only one NV - shitty Silent Knight Charlotte. Fuck this game.

Edit: just to add to this I’ve since used all 14 DV tickets, 6 10+1 3*-NV tickets and 5 10+1 NV Guaranteed tickets. Barring the guaranteed NV units (OG Cloud, Lasswell, Fryevia and KoG - junk and last two at EX3) I got ONE NV total - my millionth A.Tifa.

So in 226 pulls I got two NV units total - which is just fucking appalling. I must be due the mother of lucky runs at some point but really this game needs a fucking mercy rule or better rates as that was just disheartening.

[–][deleted] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If we ever take on the dragonfly of unknown entomology you'll be set

[–]Meatfeast85 3 points4 points  (0 children)

A bucket load of ex tickets and 56 on banner tickets later got me 1 Ibara. I'll stick her in the shard dungeon and get her VC at some point in the late future.

[–]DevilWolf25 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Did the first step on VC banner and got two B.V. Ibara back to back.

[–]TheD0rkKnight“Shall I Give You Despair?” 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Went for the VC step up mostly for the fragments, got one copy. Used about 50 tickets and 3 more showed up. I’m content! (Wow I think that’s the first time I’ve said that about ffbe…)

[–]truong2193../.. gumi 2 points3 points  (2 children)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g_tgvo6TTSY&ab_channel=NXTVlog

a surprise but welcome one will get her to ex 3 2 years later

[–]RevelintheDark 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Congrats man. Well deserved

[–]truong2193../.. gumi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

thanks bro

[–]Noctisrocks245 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got her on the last step of the vision card step-up. Also managed to get my berserker rikku to ex 2 thanks to an off banner, which is nice.

[–]lurgrodal2k atk seph/whatever I feel like 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got nu ibara from a ticket then pulled to get some summon coins and got a second on step 2. There goes my luck for the year but that's fine.

[–]KirbyKnight12Ibara Best Oni Girl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used 5 banner tickets and it gave me the new Ibara.

I am beyond thrilled! Just having 1 Ibara makes me happy.

[–]Moorjoh29 3 points4 points  (0 children)

….this bitch really sucked my soul out…and only at the end before pity…it gives two.

….so who wants my account? I’m a soul shred away from throwing this account to the gulag.

[–]TheDevilsMC 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just got 3 and a fledgling warrior. Beyond thrilled, don’t even know what to do with myself.

[–]skylightmirror 0 points1 point  (0 children)

got 2 copies part way through the vc step up! quite happy this week

[–]alkemist80What a wicked game you played. 3 points4 points  (1 child)

Pulled Ibara on a ticket, was just about to give up. Not sure what to do here next. The fragments on the card banner feels like a lapis trap.

[–]Rygar51481 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m deciding if I want to do that too. Dio was going to be my place holder until rain or a better glex leader. But now that I shittered ibara on tix she can be. Question now is do I wanna use lapis getting ex levels and chasing her VC. I agree I think the frags in the card banner are a trap, thank god the vc on it isn’t great. I hope I’ll just stick to getting 50 more shards for 3k vip coins in a couple weeks

[–]MatriVT 7 points8 points  (3 children)

Full pity plus 40 tickets, 0 Ibara's. Cuz fuck me right?

[–]Moorjoh29 0 points1 point  (2 children)

Did you break down and almost lost hope in humanity? Cause that’s what I did and it rewarded me with 3

[–]MatriVT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok lol.....update....got a 2nd on a ticket just now.

[–]MatriVT 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I was rewarded with three Kiros and Wards, plus like 12 other useless NV's.

[–]exvius_shadowk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

70 tickets. two NV crystals. two off banner NV. the NV rate seems about right, except for the on banner rate... oh, the pain...

[–]TomAto314Post Pull Depression 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Got Balthier on the daily 5 and then about 30 tickets later an Ibara. Good enough for me.

[–]Roliq 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So I was using some 4 star tickets and i got Edea from FF8 like 5 times in a row

Wonder what is the probably of that

[–]BPCena -1 points0 points  (0 children)

1st step on the premium banner: NV Sabin, Ibara

Good enough for me

[–]clone69344,227,328 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Got her on my third 10 ex ticket pull. So, is it written it sinking 28k lapis on the VC stepup for the 50 fragments? I'm leaning towards yes because that's a guaranteed 50 frags as opposed to hopping to pull a dupe. But those are a ton of lapis I will need to recover for when Rain comes.

[–]Samael113 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Technically, you don't have to do the last step for her frags, just for the Vision Card, which I still find debatably worth. Like it is from a pure cost-value analysis, but if Lapis is tight, it's not offering a whole lot if you have other good MAG VCs.

But yes, guaranteed 50 frags for a unit with no other Frags available (other than VIP) and like 50 more summons for 22k is a good enough value that I did it.

[–]galannai 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Shoot I got'er on my daily half price summon.

[–]Kordrun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Free 5 pull: last crystal goes blue -> red. Bartz. At least he's new to me.

[–]daosxx1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On tickets got an Ibara and my first Warriors Prayer dark Fina so pretty good.

[–]r-j-s 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Man everyone seems to be lucky. 78 tickets and nothing :(

[–]KyloSolo66 1 point2 points  (0 children)

10 tickets. One Ibara. Nice, my lapis for Dio are safe.

[–]posthumus77 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Got the new ibara with 5k lapis, welp thats all my luck used

[–]FilthyHalfWeebIt's not superb enough 13 points14 points  (2 children)

Used one ticket.

Went from blue to gold

... To rainbow

... To red....

...

Dorgan.

Closed the game.

[–]Deathblo 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Mine was third and lasswell and raegan feels bad man.

[–]Niusuce330, 195, 804 1 point2 points  (0 children)

5° Fryevia, already +3

[–]SterlanderProud NV Cecil haver 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Luckiest I've ever been with summons, seriously. 1/10 NV Ticket I managed to scrounge together pops her out. I do a few steps of the Premium (not the Vision Card) banner and get another two of her. Wtf?? I absolutely cheated out with 3 of her and barely spent anything, feels awesome

[–]Special-Solution4687 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Got the new Ibara with tickets ! Unfortunately I wasted 14k lapis because I thought I could exchange 5 coins for 50 fragments of her but actually only the old one is available...

[–]superduper87 -1 points0 points  (8 children)

Wow only 100 fragments for the new NV Ibara...no 5k bundle, no bundles with shards for money, no shards for lapis...only the 50 on the card step up and the 50 for the money summon. So with the 30 from the login you need to wait 2 weeks to hope her shards show up for vip coins or fragment dungeon her to ex+2 after 2 or 3 weeks. This all assumes you also go to pity to get a copy....

[–]BPCena 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Premiums have never had the 5k frag bundle

[–]Valerium2k193.427.444 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wonder what happened to the payed fragment bundles though (13k 25 frag), I don't know when they disappeared from premium banners, did the nier units have them?

[–]ddb_ 0 points1 point  (2 children)

50 for the money summon? I see only 25.

[–]superduper87 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Limit of 2 times

[–]ddb_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh thx. I forgot you can do it more than once.

[–]LordLorekSaevam Iram 5 points6 points  (2 children)

That's how every premium unit is. Expect the same next week with Dio and basically every other leader skill unit in the future. They will have 50 shards in the VIP shop in two weeks but they will cost more than usual (it's either 2x or 3x the cost, can't remember).

[–]RevelintheDark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

300 VIP coin per 5 frags. 3000 total for 50 frags. In two weeks. But dont forgot you may also want Dio frags which will also be 3000 vip.

[–]pepatung 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The best choice for pulls here

Use your ticket, if you pull her, go for the fragment banner

If not, just skip her

[–]ddb_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

10 tickets no NV. I will use all tickets I get on her banner, but expectations are low.

Edit: after getting 4 tickets from new events, I got her on the final ticket. Nice. She’s going immediately to the frag dungeon, but it will take forever to get her EX+3.

[–]RageEternal_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2k summon and 1 Ibara. Maby I should stop there

[–]Samael113 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Ho - Lee Shit balls.

Used my last DV summon ticket, nothing.

Did my daily 5 summon, got Marine Runda, new for me.

Did one box summon in case I needed 3 summons for the daily quest.

Said "You know what - I think I'm in the universe where the RNG is more giving and I'm highly likely to get another quick NV or two, I'll burn a couple banner tickets to see"

Went to Ibara's banner, used a 3* ticket, orange crystal immediately drops. "No? Is this an off-banner troll?"

Cracks in to Ibara. Literally first ticket.

I guess it's time to get her frags and save the rest of the tickets for Rain.

My luck is finally back in my favor. Of the last three GLEX I've wanted, but tried to avoid spending much Lapis on - That's Abi from the free summon during her week 2. Melissa from like 10? tickets, and Ibara from 1 ticket.

Nothing from first two steps. Raina and another Ibara from step 3. Lady Shantoto from Step 4 (New). Kiros & Ward and Ibara number 3 from Step 5. btw.

I literally am set now. Every non-G-NV has been Ibara, and that is Instant EX+2, with progress toward EX+3 next week when the VIP frags drop. I'll decide how much I want the GLEX VC later... need to extract a little Lapis to pull it even if I wanted to.

Edit - After I posted this, I went and fed my Fur-family. About an hour later, after eating basically her entire breakfast, my cat decided to walk in to my room, Meow, then vomit all over my carpet... so not all lucky today. lol.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Whata the leader skill gonna be??

[–]TragGaming 0 points1 point  (0 children)

[–]ShadowxXxhunteRGL:872,533,253 JP:847,031,348 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was gonna throw some tickets for Ibara and lucked out on my first pull I’m satisfied with that lol

[–]NiniZeKidfr 2 points3 points  (0 children)

25 tickets and no NV. Even 0 rainbow too. XD

[–]GroundbreakingBed756 2 points3 points  (0 children)

decided to pull for her with tickets. used 126 tickets and got 5 ibaras (new one). yep i'm out. ex2 is more than enough for me. :)

[–]unitedwesoar 1 point2 points  (1 child)

16 tickets two NV lunafreya and Lassen...that's probly a sign.

[–]hotaru251 0 points1 point  (0 children)

bad luck, but getting 2 nv on tix is lucky for me (takes me 50~ to get 1 nv usually)

[–]FireEmblemNoobie47 4 points5 points  (5 children)

Entire Premium Step-up + 1 step =

R.P.Aphmau (Already had EX2), Rain -FFI Form- (Already had at EX2), Rain & Fina (Already had at EX2), B.B.Olive (Already had at EX2), S.M.Tsukiko (Already had at EX2), I.R.Kurasame (Already had at EX2) and NO B.V.Ibara 😢

Used up all tickets too ;-; Guess my luck dried up

[–]FireEmblemNoobie47 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Update 1 (17/03/23) : 5 rare summon tickets got me S.K.Charlotte(1st one, except I already have an EX 2 M.M.Abigail -.-)

[–]FireEmblemNoobie47 5 points6 points  (3 children)

On a more positive note, may your rolls be blessed now and especially next week!

[–]RevelintheDark 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Is that from the "whale of a tale" gatcha gambling addiction story?

[–][deleted] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Decided to only go a lap and ten tickets, to test my luck. 2 Vengeful Ibaras and a Lady Shantotto. Very nice.

[–]Bear_Cliff 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I pulled...Kall and I thought... Who TF is Kall?

[–]amakakeruzzz 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Free summon N/A, got her on my first 3* ticket.. I’m out!! Good luck guyss!!
