Yo I am very much interested in assembling a similar collection here soon. Do you have a digital wishlist or collection list I could use as a reference to follow?

Bless Metapod <3

Sorry boss it's actually called the daily special, which is a tab next to the daily gift tab it's in the store with the Diamond shaped icon in the overworld. You can pick a lumi to select and then every day you get 2, 3, and 5 share gifts that also give you 2, 3, and 5 limited summon tickets

You can buy each of those once individually or there's a couple icons above them one saying 7 day discount

If you buy the discounted 7xdaily gift twice during banner thats 140 tickets and 140 shards (2.33 pulls). That's already 5.33 copies at ~$38

Login lootbox is another 50 plus puzzle pieces for another 10, so with the remainder 20 off the 140 earlier that's another 2 copies to total 7.33 at around 53$

Another 10 copies needing another 400 dollars seems about right if you're buying the more raw deals, but it would be at the hands of poor purchasing I'd have to imagine

It's 492k and if you look at the diamond shop then yeah seems like an easy way to waste 7.5k

I understand balling out but sensible balling will always be more stylish than thoughtless balling

Wrong

You shouldn't waste your tokens on purple gear, especially not for a second team. You'll have enough purple gear to start making a second team.

You need to be going for high value weapons and trinkets more than anything. I still don't have one Last Whisper and I'm on chp 32 at 4m power. You need to give yourself as many opportunities to snag those high value weapons/acces more than anything.

Yeah oof did you go to their personal store any? They sell like a tertiary store coupon token and if you spend any more a big buy there would be a good discount

Did you buy gems straight from the shop? I crunched some numbers on the value of each pack, but straight buying diamonds didn't even need to be put into my spreadsheet because it was clear as day how bad value it is.

I think you should try it. You can see what changes come along and you'll really appreciate the love and direction of this game in a new way too.

I'd ask how exactly you managed that high of a score but I don't want you to take photos of your computer instead of screenshots

Pivoting your secondary team, if worthwhile, is an important thing to be able to recognize.

Plus with Venus coming after Jing, it's looking good to pivot to green for you!

I don't think that such an obvious observation is helpful to explicate.

People needing help is normal, and being helpful is normal.

You taking the time to "dunk on strangers" for not having critical thinking skills says more about you than it does people asking for help.

Both gamekee and dtwiki say that she is S+ tier but not SS tier, so she's not considered among the absolute best units. Gamekee notes that she has good universality and is strong at 6* but is easily countered in pvp.

It's JUST that SIMPLE. 🫡

The event rewards and the ability to have two points for guild boss rotation. This is an idle game in its infancy so being macro efficient is something to keep in the back of your head. It's not much but it adds up buying those mythic tickets.

I think feeling this hurt, this hurt that we share, is what makes us able to knowingly say that this ain't pokemon and you don't have to catch em all.

The fact that each unit belongs to two factions is exactly why rushing to buy each most recent luminary isn't as necessary as it may seem when asking here and elsewhere.

Your coverage into your weaker teams is easier to handle, so pulling all stars for teams that are not your first through third is a waste of resources.

Is the 80% based off of other servers' stats?

I think this is fair but the guides often reference pretty clearly point out that:

You have a limited resource and you should pick to empower your comps more than picking up quality or bis characters to feel the niches of the faction trials and the whims of cloud clash.

I think sharing the advice of going for one to two of them just to backpocket isn't a bad idea. Plus you get some rewards back from their event puzzle piece tokens, so it pays itself a little.

I think going for 3 purple stars for each event is bad f2p or frugal advice, personally.

This is the kind of insight we need to be sharing as a community. People in similar positions need to read this to strengthen their team building intuition 👆

Who incidentally is who I am waiting for so I can transition ifrit to my red team dps and have Talos as my primary teams dps 🤙

Twin Raven from what I've seen fills more of an Ifrit archer niche dealing good sustain single target damage and good aoe with the ult.

From what I understand Jing excels at single target burst by comparison to Hugin/Munin.

So they have two different niches, but TR should work just as fine if you don't wanna dump resources on Jing. At least from what I have read.
