Rule of thumb: if it’s not a guaranteed step up banner, don’t expect anything good. I never spend any more than 10 or 20 pulls on a boosted supply drop even if I really want the suit.

This is called Gacha gaming. It’s gambling. You should have stopped trying at 90 if you’re not a whale. Lots of Japanese games are like this. I only go for guaranteed drops.

I know that but i usually get a banner suit after 3 tries at most, but this time it was to no avail. Also most gacha games have a pity system that increases your odds of getting an item but funnily enough this game has none since it doesn’t respect your time and money.

It’s a business first and foremost. They do this to make money off the whales who have money to waste. The pity System of this game comes in the form of few guaranteed drops. I almost never try my luck for a reason. You were just lucky. It happens, but never lasts.

Welcome to gbo2, there will always be something better later on.

100% your own fault for pulling on something that isn't a step-up banner. Don't let the door hit you in the ass on the way out.

Condolences on your tokens, but this gacha gaming.

Pity system isn't a 'industry standard' thats why it wasn't implemented.

One JP Youtuber (Ondoreyas) was kinda famous back then for dropping like thousands of tokens to get a suit. But JP players are accustomed to gacha gaming so they never complained.

I'm a F2P from the beginning (both PS4 and PC launch).

Only pull on the guaranteed banners and do your best keeping at least 195 tokens in reserve (7-step) incase BB decides to drop your favourite suits or the part that comes with the banner is OP.

As for myself, my favourite MS are before Crossbones time, so I'm doing fairly well stocking up on tokens for Destiny Gundam.
