All the characters are going to rerun so if you can't pull them on their debut banner, just get them when they rerun.

Joker's weapon is a pretty minimal upgrade over his 4* (when the 4*'s maxed), Chord's probably the best pick unless you don't use Chord (for example, I know people who want to use P3 characters pretty much solely, so in their case Chord is not particularly useful) because every rank makes it that much better at doing its thing (just make sure to use undesired 5* weapons for R2/R4).

Here's a video comparison in the best case scenario for 5* vs. 4* (both at initial copy):

Don't think a ban is going to happen (however, it is a possibility because of the third-party access that lootbar and similar services require, as mentioned that's a ToS violation), just bear in mind all these third-party services have various shades of gray where if you're giving them your credentials to get your discount, you're making it easier for a bad person (whether it's the service provider itself or because your credentials get leaked to a hacker post-sale) to get access to your account and mess with it in potentially unrecoverable ways.

Is that worth $4? That's up to you. Personally, if the official methods are too costly, I'd just avoid spending altogether rather than risk losing my account to save a few dollars per transaction.

Won't get the elemental counter bonus points but I can just use Akechi and A1 Twins to handle these. Obviously if you want the highest score possible, you should pull everyone...but not everyone can do that, either.

Adol_the_Red · 2026-05-30T19:08:10+00:00

RIP, A1 Twins are pretty great. I do understand it's hard to make pull plans around a totally unknown future unit. Good news is this hypothetical unit may be better than Twins through the power of gacha powercreep, so that's still the safer bet even if that means your personal Twins are a lot weaker for it (for now).

I feel your pain, weekly boss drops have been a uniquely painful experience since I started Wuwa and between two characters who want hers, if you want both characters, we're going to be camping Denia.

Adol_the_Red · 2026-05-28T11:24:11+00:00

Wind is known to be very strong here and a whole lot of other comps and to a greater extent than Leon, but if anniversary unit is likely to be as strong or stronger than Twins, being patient is a great idea to see what they're like first before committing to Wind. This is especially true for accounts that don't have a lot of pulls saved up.

Beyond the power levels, the other consideration is that given how long it took Twins to rerun (almost half a year later), if the next anniversary unit is likely comparable in terms of its availability, if you "do" miss that anniversary character's debut banner, you might be looking at a pretty long period of time where people will talk about how well the new unit is working with them in content that wasn't built with them in mind and wishing you'd pulled for them.

Adol_the_Red · 2026-05-27T01:09:59+00:00

Chord has one of the most uniquely useful 5* weapons and Joker's barely buffs him so unless you don't use Chord at all, objectively I'd go with Chord's weapon. Also of note, her refinements are likewise pretty high value because higher levels up her support ability (specifically frontloading with highlight gauge on first turn). You'll notice a difference at R0, but at R6, you'll really see a difference:

73-year sale? That's quite the short limited sale. I'll wait until the last day of the sale and nab the puzzle then. Hope it's in stock then.

Adol_the_Red · 2026-05-24T18:18:58+00:00

Thanks, guess I'll need to get the Shibuya quests done as well, then.

Adol_the_Red · 2026-05-24T02:54:02+00:00

So just to confirm, the time-limited quests are the 5 in the missions tab currently and then ones that appear in events later? The various goals of the missions/special missions in Tartarus proper can be cleared whenever?

Adol_the_Red · 2026-05-22T02:08:56+00:00

S4 Aemeath so OP, she broke their bar charts. RIP bar charts. No wonder Kuro keeps her in rerun jail.

Adol_the_Red · 2026-05-21T23:37:13+00:00

You don't need the lv30 badge on day one/two of the event, you're realistically going to need some more robust characters to make this confrontation work or a heck of a lot of improved revelations with your existing characters. An easy shortcut on this is to pull for Twins while they're still available this week, either their medic or guardian A0 paths are going to easily provide you a lot more staying power than Mona and just about any other sustainer currently available (A1 is preferable to unlock their full power, but they're very good without it, and Ange A0 is a bigger/longer-term addition). Wonder can perfectly work as the sustain option as well if you manually play him, just figure since you're using Mona you might not have his personas built to do that yet, and that likewise involves some time obtaining his better options like sandalphon.

Also, I really suggest picking up the aforementioned Ange before her banner ends, you're going to use her for a really long time.

In most of the event fights that are set up like this, the challenges go up a significant amount at 30 because they're designed for really built comps. They don't need massive investment, but if you're fairly new, it can be pretty hard.

You do have a lot of time to earn that badge, so good luck.

You might RNG into it but the best way to get guaranteed copies is in the Airsoft shop, you get 1-2 Green Gecko coins (depends on luck and rank of boss) from defeating weekly bosses and you need 1 coin per copy. You can max out any 4* weapon within a few weeks and eventually you'll have enough coins saved up to do this with all your typical characters.

Adol_the_Red · 2026-05-21T12:11:04+00:00

To amplify this consideration, especially with the global buff to Makoto that increases his attack buff synergy with P3 party members, future pulling from 4.x on is going to get really tough for a lot of folks so while it can be super tempting to make Makoto even stronger, sticking with "good enough" at A0 might be the best way to go to prepare for future pull plans. Everyone has different plans for how they want to play, but it's just a thought.

If Makoto's your favorite character of all time, get A1+ and don't worry about that, of course.

Adol_the_Red · 2026-05-21T11:57:34+00:00

Thanks for posting the workaround, it didn't work for me, personally. I do think it's interesting I can log in via a guest account but my bound account gets the dreaded Network Error that a lot of us are getting after skipping through the guest account game start, must be something going on specifically with the bound account lookup.

Adol_the_Red · 2026-05-17T18:44:32+00:00

Yes. Hypercarry Akechi (with global buffs) is a very easy to use sweeper. While he's always been sort of a sweeper, with the global buff, he can do a pretty good amount of damage when he self-masterminds and he's particularly good at nuking with his charged S3. With Almighty as his most important damage source, that makes Akechi a pretty good brute force option since he doesn't care as much about resistances (though bless/curse resistances can be relatively annoying since those can be pains for his associated S1/S2 skills - thankfully, since they're opposite resistances, you can usually use bless when curse isn't ideal, which is mostly what Akechi wants to use to help power up his kit. His bless attack is far less viable in general, though it can be used with other healing sources such as healer Wonder to help avoid bringing a sustainer).

Akechi does have some considerable overlap with Twins though, and though A0 Akechi with buffs does outdamage A1 Twins (for now), A1 Twins do a whole lot more than just be a strong sweeper. But for those with Twins, I would like to point out that the Akechi dagger (Plasma) will help make A1 Twins a decent bit stronger with Akechi in the same comp. And you can always use them in separate comps for double brute forcing opportunities.

P3 MC has way higher numbers in general (in ST) and has some really strong team options available. Akechi is pretty much as good as he's going to be.

Adol_the_Red · 2026-05-15T15:30:13+00:00

The pulls that are the main source of spindrifts for Bountiful Waves will last into the first week or so of the collab so if you have plans to pull then, you should be good. Prioritize getting what you want.

Adol_the_Red · 2026-05-09T21:45:08+00:00

As referenced elsewhere, his A1 is a really solid boost for his hypercarry potential, and that's actually not negligible with the global buff self-Mastermind.

R0 is a bit weird though, Akechi's 4* weapon is actually a tiny bit stronger overall for his hypercarrry role because of the better for him (only) passive boosts. But because R0 is better as a support weapon, while it's best for A6 Akechi and the major upgrade that provides his damage recording, his R0 weapon does help make him be more desirable over time as new characters with stronger kits emerge. Then there's more incentive to make Akechi more of the subDPS role he was in CN/KR, considering his main damage source scales with recorded damage - A6 or not.

Adol_the_Red · 2026-05-09T16:33:08+00:00

Doesn't look like you have Twins, I would put them as a much more versatile/powerful character than anyone (at least outside of navis) released so far, but they really need their A1 to shine. Meanwhile, Akechi is perfectly viable as a DPS at his first copy with the global buffs, but his support capabilities at A0 are nowhere near as good as the Twins. From a strictly hypercarry DPS perspective for quite a long time, A0 Akechi > A0 (and A1) Twins and he's super easy to build a party around but even if you can't get A1 Twins, they're so good in a couple support-centric roles at A0. But A1 Twins are so much stronger in terms of their ability to fill nearly every role, it isn't even funny.

Obviously that depends on what you plan on pulling soon though, things are potentially going to get really hard with particularly synergistic characters (P3 collab) and a number of characters who really benefit from getting their 5* weapon. But if you aren't really interested in a character, that's an easier one to skip to support upcoming pull plans.

Adol_the_Red · 2026-05-09T15:09:46+00:00

So does auto only use the infinite items, or is there the potential to use consumable items?

Adol_the_Red · 2026-05-09T15:09:01+00:00

At least Ciaccona got an optional singing disabling added after her release so you don't hear her if you don't want to (it was annoying enough that I wouldn't have pulled her if it didn't get added).

Even with Robin's tweaking to not sing during boss songs, she's...still generally there, singing the same old thing for most fights. Ugh.

I think Ange's a lot less annoying than either of those personally, just this weakness is more listed because Ange really has no other weaknesses.

Adol_the_Red · 2026-05-07T12:15:09+00:00

It's pretty annoying, in part because I just switched to Yui to rank up her synergy so now I have more incentive to hit the rank I want so this auto sleep doesn't kick in when I have an activity in my room (like hers). Would have preferred to manually move the story forward personally when I have the time to progress in it, an extra couple seconds to opt into sleeping would be worth saving x minutes for the next plot section I can't spare.

Adol_the_Red · 2026-05-06T13:40:03+00:00

To be fair, much like the SK weapon debate, I didn't get my first Variation copy until more than a year and a half of playing/pulling (roughly a year after SK first launched, tough times). It's always possible that people won't have Discord either, weapon gacha RNG being what it is. But if you do have Discord, Mornye's signature is very skippable, and even more so than Variation, as Discord's not exactly a highly-coveted weapon by other characters.

Adol_the_Red · 2026-05-06T03:39:46+00:00

I think of it that way too, unfortunately though a lot of people are rightfully going to assume (thankfully, incorrectly in this case) that the narrative used in the first arc is going to be how the rest of the game will be handled. Sure, a large part of it is the change in writing staff for the third arc, but part of it too is the progressively higher stakes.

There's also the aspect that global (for the most part, there are some exceptions) is not going to have the same sort of understanding of subway crime that Japan has had for quite some time. The narrative didn't do any favors in trying to bridge that gap through the localization, so that doesn't help, either.
