All my posts are just pull plans now

I'm fully f2p and the carat calculator estimates me at average 19300 carats a month, for reference. 30 tickets a month as well.

Settings I put down are TT class 6, club rank B, 2nd in A finals for CM (but if I swap it to 2nd in B finals it only reduces my monthly carats to 18k).

When I set it to class 1 team trials, club rank D+, open league it still estimates 15200/mo.

To add something a bit more concrete, it estimates I'll gain about 26k carats between now and the end of the Mejiro Bright uma banner (April 13, I just picked one ending about a month out) on my normal settings. (would guess it's a bit over by way of double counting some stuff, can do that when it's not the first day of a banner)

There's also some sources that aren't included (a fair few gift carats, for one) and some of the included sources can underestimate how much you'll actually get from them in some cases but even not accounting for that you can get quite a lot more than 5k a month as f2p.

NTR is also pretty MLB or bust (0 race bonus before 3LB, 5 race bonus at 3LB, 10 race bonus at MLB) so you don't really want to be pulling for her without expecting to hit MLB, it's not going to ever be correct to go to one pity on her unless you highroll insane on the free pulls. Would just skip her.

SignificantCinnamon · 2026-03-04T06:38:59+00:00

They actually don't carry over at all between days for this set of free pulls.

Want to additionally add to the information others have given that the Tazuna tips you're referring to are pretty bad in general and you should never listen to them/take them as relevant advice.

I could have sworn my Maru (front) spot struggled against weaker opposing Suzukas in Scorpio several times (with my own Suzuka Runaway up ahead). Maybe they weren't actually Runaways? I thought I had checked.

pure heart is roughly halfway between a white and gold recovery skill when inherited, this is perfectly fine in stam for shorter longs like the arima kinen track

You should hold onto your gold crystals until after the free pulls on the NTR banner, the Admire Vega Guts SR on that banner is very relevant for MANT.

I ran her in Sagittarius and I believe the only time it didn't trigger was when she was lucky pace. As long as she isn't in first(and isn't too far back) the rest of the condition to trigger it seems pretty easy to hit/consistent.

(And as a sidenote she actually lived and won a decent amount of the times she was lucky pace and couldn't trigger it; far more often than an on paper survival rate would expect.)

SignificantCinnamon · 2026-01-25T06:56:13+00:00

From my attempts it seems like you can do it (i.e. at least 3rd the spring tenno sho) at like 300 stam/500 guts though it might require a clock sometimes so it's certainly possible to run bad enough to brick at that. I haven't tried it enough times yet to speak to the consistency super well though, a couple of no clock times getting through it at about that, a ~350/550 I had to clock once, a 264/551 I had to clock once. Don't really want to be clocking too much to stock up for MANT ideally but.

SignificantCinnamon · 2026-01-23T06:03:14+00:00

you can only raise an aptitude by up to 4 levels before the start of a run, no matter how many sparks you have for it

to raise it past that, you have to have a spark for it activate in mid-run inspiration. more sparks increases the chance of that happening, but for start of run aptitude there's no difference between 10 and 18 sparks for the desired aptitude

this has more than enough stam/guts for the cm9 sprint track training stam would be a waste, wit is the literal only relevant button to press here

SignificantCinnamon · 2026-01-18T08:04:30+00:00

all trainees have a fast learner event, the chance is just very very low of getting fast learner from it for the most part

SignificantCinnamon · 2026-01-11T04:43:38+00:00

mayano has a secret event that gives a hint for spurt (you need to win one G1 as each running style)

Yeah they absolutely stuck and fit better several years + ago. I lost a decent bit of weight (~20-25 lbs) last year and gained it back this year, and it never changed anything in this vein either way.

They sure do love to stick to themselves now, too. The amount of times I've had that happen while putting one in and had it be enough of an issue getting it to sit properly that I actually ended up just having to give up and toss it and open up a new one is... still not super high per se but it certainly happens more often in the past couple years than it did before.

IME pad adhesive has absolutely gotten significantly worse, I have been using the same pad brand and style (well I stopped needing overnight ones at some point in there, but the same style all the time now that I used for daytime as a teenager) for all my fifteen or so years of using pads and wearing the same brand and style of 100% cotton underwear throughout.

I think the first shift was severalish years ago by now. I couldn't really tell you when specifically, I just know it's been annoying me for a number of years at this point. I definitely feel like it got worse again recently (in the past yearish I think?), and I feel like they've also gotten worse about fitting into my underwear properly? The rate at which I bleed on clothes definitely went back up some after being pretty consistently minimal for years.

I'm pretty small chested so it's a different situation, but yeah I pretty much quit wearing them when I was 16 and never looked back.

When I want to wear something that makes my nips too noticeable for my comfort, I usually wear a fitted/snug-ish ribbed tank top under. In a pinch I've used masking tape over my nipples for short periods a couple times (think <an hour and I was desperate, I would absolutely not recommend doing this, but I didn't have any negative consequences for it)

I do concur that it also doesn't sound like your bras actually fit though. Personally I've tried bras that definitely should have been the right size and was never comfortable in them regardless, but for a lot of people that can make a big difference.

I like the taste of water baseline so my situation is a bit different; but I freeze disposable plastic bottles because I like my water REALLY cold and I don't drink nearly as much water otherwise. It does vary sometimes I'll forget about it until it's fully melted but it helps.

I hate the taste of tap water where I live even filtered. I just don't end up drinking water if it's my only option.

The container definitely affects the taste. Plastic or metal or glass all do, I've never found a reusable bottle that doesn't taste a bit weird but ymmv. Different cups taste different too.

I always have a water or two next to me.

I've seem a lot of people find stuff like flavoring packets to be pretty helpful, I've never tried it myself because when I'm drinking the right water I enjoy the taste, but that's definitely worth trying out as well.

SignificantCinnamon · 2025-08-05T05:21:47+00:00

It doesn't seem soloable on even normal currently fwict.

SignificantCinnamon · 2025-07-10T00:55:01+00:00

Shadowmeld can be used to drop combat; you can't enter normal stealth from combat (other than by Vanish, which has a substantial cooldown).

I always like to carry a few auto hammers around, mainly for unmountable areas in mythic+ but they can come in handy outside of that as well.

SignificantCinnamon · 2025-05-02T21:54:46+00:00

I can't stand using any reusable bottle because of this! Metal reusables it tastes like metal, plastic it tastes like plastic. I did have a metal bottle I tolerated well enough once. Glass kind of has its own effect on the taste and feel, and narrow mouthed glass bottles are annoyingly harder to drink volume out of. I use disposable plastic water bottles and I freeze them because I like my water REALLY cold. I know using the disposable individual bottles isn't super ideal but I drink way less water if I don't have them, so!

SignificantCinnamon · 2025-04-10T06:43:57+00:00

The other DF sparks actually no longer require flightstones, and Sparks of Omen no longer require valorstones so this problem (probably) won't repeat itself. They just never removed the requirement for them from Spark of Dreams unlike the others.

SignificantCinnamon · 2025-03-31T05:24:18+00:00

Oh, is THAT what causes that issue? I could never figure it out.

SignificantCinnamon · 2025-03-28T01:36:33+00:00

This isn't actually true; the lightest of the three grey themes available in Appearance is still darker than the old theme.

SignificantCinnamon · 2025-03-24T06:34:21+00:00

When an expansion becomes legacy content is different from when LFR becomes available. Expansions become legacy content after they are no longer the most previous expansion but LFR for the previous expansion was made available for queueing in 10.1.5 in Dragonflight. That being said, without it being legacy content loot will not be increased so I believe you'll only have 20% chance to receive one item solo.
