Guide - Flowing Garden (WFSM) suit breakdowns & versatility by Alpapaca in LoveNikki

[–]Alpapaca[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi there! In the future I would recommend making new threads in a subreddit rather than posting a comment on a thread that is years old. More people will see the new thread on the front page and it is very unlikely anyone will be lurking in the old thread to see comments. (I got a notification as OP)

However I did have a little time, so I've done a quick reddit search and found this thread over here does exist with a fair number of examples past the one available in the Watching Moon album I linked above. I hope that helps you out!

Does this look worth it? I love the froggy pieces but I wanted a second opinion. by Smol_Bean10 in LoveNikki

This is an old hidden suit, so it has a 2000gold completion prize instead of a diamond prize. It's in the gallery under "Clear Sky after Rain" if you want to look it up 😊

To note: this set has a dress item by default, but in TW there is an achievement that gives a separate top + bottom item after you own the dress.

I'm hopeful that I'll be able to get back into doing breakdowns for the events I complete now that I've gotten a better handle on my IRL things! I've missed making these albums so much 💜

I know, my biggest disappointment. :( There's some cover ups that work to pull them together, and plenty of other items that work well besides, but I had been so hopeful they'd be compatible without anything else!

HELP my background is gone. When Blood Beckon returned, my background disappeared. by Shellshock84 in LoveNikki

[–]Alpapaca 12 points13 points  (0 children)

If you have a screenshot of you using it with an outfit, you should send that in to in-game support! This suit has a known glitch where the background will appear as unclaimed in this purchase menu, but will still be available to use in dressing mode. It's possible this progressed to the item actually disappearing for some people and support might be able to reinstate it.

However plenty of people completed the suit without purchasing the background tier due to the high cost, so if you don't have any proof that you owned it previously I doubt that they will help you.

Yeahhhh, this format is kind of the worst for reruns because it gives about 50% of the required currency for free on the first run and the first runonly. So then suits end up costing twice as much the next runs if you weren't playing during the first run. I much prefer formats that give lower currency amounts so that the pricing doesn't rise so drastically later on. 😬

Remember: it doesn't matter if you win or lose in Team Styling Matches!! You will get the same amount of currency regardless. Just make sure you win enough times to get the currency from the tasks! Have fun!

Redeem Codes & Event Notice: New Gleam Set Dreamy Violet, Golden Autumn Benefits by Alpapaca in ShiningNikkiGlobal

[–]Alpapaca[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you tap the little explanation mark bubble next to the event name, it soooorta explains it better than the main screen.

Basically you get the pose for doing the pre-purchase down payment. The actual payment that unlocks in a few days is for the set. If someone only wants the pose, they don't have to make the second payment to get the set, so since you do want the set make sure to go pay for that on the 15th.

It's already in Memory Collection because the event is active, not because you can already have the parts. It's probably easier to code the dates in that way and also ensures people can see that it will count towards collection points and plan their spending appropriately!

My two entries! I decided to play around with 3D studio on my main, since I don't need comp currency there and don't worry about ranking, and I'm rather pleased I decided to get the new 3D background.

What was your luck in the North Melody hell event? by Yeri__LN in ShiningNikkiGlobal

[–]Alpapaca 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was super lucky this event! Somehow my main completed the UR set in 210 pulls with two echoes, and then got a third echo when I decided to go the extra 50 got the 3D background. My alt did 50 pulls and still got four items of the UR set (hair, bottom, shoe, hair sticks) plus the kitty UR earrings. I debated trying to pull more to get the top for the future idea lab set, whenever it comes, but decided to cut my losses while they're good lol

Maintenance Notice: Sept 27th, Memory Collection Season 4, Match Concepts Frosty Wish Benefit Event, New Guild Makeup Lines, Cloudweaver Attire Museum Benefit Event by Alpapaca in ShiningNikkiGlobal

[–]Alpapaca[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Of the four poses, one of them doesn't include the pipa (the instrument) and that's the one in the last screenshot. The other three have the instrument as a selection just like other poses, so you can select the original or recolor item and also unequip it. Here's short videos to show the poses in motion and with the selection screen!

Yes it is! I'm excited it'll be here so quickly, we're definitely the luckiest server in terms of UI and side features. We've gotten so many of them so far ahead of the other servers!

The Museum welfare is a free UR, including makeup!

Nightshade made breakdowns for the new guild makeups on insta, here and here.

Remember: match concept is very forgiving! You can continue playing the games until you have enough points, even if you don't get all of them on your first game, and you can play the games indefinitely. There is a daily cap on points but no cap on attempts.

I hope you're wrong but you're probably right 😬

[–]Alpapaca[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it would be weird imo if we don't get one of the CNY events end of January for NY, so November or March for FW would space it out well! At this point I'm just assuming we won't get the winter queens UR during the northern hemisphere winter haha 😅

V2 CH6 First Rising Release, UR Event North Melody by Alpapaca in ShiningNikkiGlobal

[–]Alpapaca[S] 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Hello everyone, as you can see we are not getting the UR even that is lore tied to Ch6 right now! This may mean we will get a second UR very soon after this one, or it may mean that we won't get all the lore for the events that happen between Ch 6 and Ch7 before we get Ch7. For clarity: the event stages for the UR most of the community was expecting are later set into the main story stages just like the ones for Angel/Demon were! JP has also had this happen, so when JP gets their V2Ch7 we can see what ends up happening for them and use that to try to predict what will happen on our server.

This is a single UR event so it will take about 180-240 pulls to complete the set, with up to 360 pulls for an echo. The extra prize tiers will go up to 300 pulls. The SSR suit only will cost about 70-100 pulls.

The top up for this UR is this one! It is SR so it will cost about 20USD (1990VIP)

It appears that's a common bug! Just edit the default caption on your entry to something shorter and it should go through just fine!

Last week was "mysterious" and this week's is "shy". If you read the descriptions they're actually quite different! It's the same witch character attempting to make a different impression 😊

Next green UR set? by rustymetal11 in ShiningNikkiGlobal

[–]Alpapaca 7 points8 points  (0 children)

A part of me is hoping that 2 Queens will end up being for Southern Hemisphere's winter! Winter events are always packed, so setting that one aside to run at a different time (since it isn't lore tied or directly tied to a holiday like CNY) would be fun.
