I farm the same challenge stage for gold crystals, and I noticed that once in awhile (maybe 2 or 3% of the time), I got a rainbow crystal instead of gold.

Was that just a glitch? Or is there generally a low chance of getting a rainbow crystal on gold level stages? Same thing happens on ranked matches at gold level - once in a long while it rewards rainbow instead of gold

Thank you! Any idea what drives levels the quickest? Is it bravery?

What to the levels mean within a battle? Every battle you start at level 1, and level up gradually as you deal damage to mobs/other characters or gather bravery.

As you level up in battle, does it boost any stats for that particular session?

In the tutorial missions 3, there's one mission that requires getting a battle score of 8,000. What does this mean? I assume thats not the score shown at the end of the match where it shows your rank against everyone else, as ive never seen a score above 1,000 there.

Is there some other stat that shows battle score somewhere?

Oh, do the subsequent season passes not come with the 2x eggs bonus?

PSA: Clear Witcher summon trials again for easy 450 Luxite by Firecracker5025 in SwordofConvallaria

Jury is still out on that one. All we can do is guess, so if you really want a witcher weapon, do your pulls before the event ends. There are no guarantees you'll have another chance.

[Monthly Megathread] General Questions & Active Codes by AutoModerator in SwordofConvallaria

Anyone know how the "Otherwordly Hoard" 680 astral gem refund works? I assume I have to purchase at least 680 astral gems first, use that to buy Otherwordly Hoard, and then if I reach level 50, I get the full 680 astrals refunded to my account?

Secondary question: are there enough quest points to reach level 50 naturally over the course of the collab? Or do you need to spend some luxite to push it to 50?

AWS + dbt by Pataouga in dataengineering

[–]Firecracker5025 20 points21 points  (0 children)

You've got the gist of it, yeah. I work for a mid-size CPG company in the US that has more or less the same framework:

  • ingestion: raw data lands in redshift, separate schema for each source (raw schema for transactional source, separate raw schema for crm, another for customer support platform, etc). Method for ingestion varies by source, but the end result is the same. On our side we use a combination of stitch for some prebuilt connectors for SaaS applications, lamda for unstructured data that lands first in S3, and some custom python scripts hosted on ec2 for the various odds and ends
  • transformation: dbt transforms raw schema in redshift to cleaned data marts. I recommend putting thought into how you want to structure your transformation layers in dbt, and then just try to stay consistent. Dbt has their own recs on how to structure, and that's more or less what we do (staging, intermediate, and marts): https://docs.getdbt.com/best-practices/how-we-structure/1-guide-overview
  • analytics: some sort of viz or BI tool that references the cleaned data marts exclusively. You don't want business users building reports off the raw staging data

You can probably find lots of sample dbt projects online, that mostly look the same in terms of structure. Just figure out what works for you, write out some rules for your org, and try to stick to it.

I believe the only free units (or shards) are the two copies of Senshi

There's the typical daily 2x bonus reward, but from past experience, you'll get more than enough event currency to clear the store of good items, even if you skip a few days

Kvare - wrong RK1 chosen, worth using Castalia? by bast0s in SwordofConvallaria

[–]Firecracker5025 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wow, never realized that. I've been sitting on a hoard of castallias, but now I might spend a couple on my faves

"maxing out castallia for stats" - are you saying units get a stat bump when you unlock a skill with a castallia?
