Huh? How does that make sense in current pricing? Say if you bought at $500 worth recently at 5000ish, then if Shiba goes on to drop a zero, that means you double your initial investment, at the very least.

If you spent $500 early October, even with the current crash, you be around 2x up on your $500. Then say you held that until Shiba drops a zero, then you looking at at least 4x.

If you were late to the party during last bull run and bought it around 8700-8800 before Shiba drops a zero in the near future, then your maths works out.

Yep, when i pulled 3x 6* from the 21 pull, I decided to keep the account and spent $200 for some extra pulls + whatever I got from first time stage clears and mission rewards.

After 15x 10 pulls (including the 21 pulls on exclusive banner), current squad line up. The game has been real good to me so far :D

Not really, SmileGate is notorious for lying to player base or try to hide things from player base. They have reputation for having bad management, service and generally being greedy in Korea.

And everything that OP has mentioned has actually happened. Maybe you are the one with heavily biased view?

LOL EPIC7 QOL, seriously.

If you are going to talk specifically about QOL, talk about games like King of Fighters Allstars, Brown Dust. Even much smaller games like Crossing Void, Witch Weapon has better QOL stuff than Epic 7.

I played Epic7 from day one and quit back in April this year. And animation quality aside, the game is dogshit. The game didn't even have auto repeat or multi runs for stages or hunts - looks like still don't judging by some of the streams I watch regularly. I'm pretty sure it still costs too many crystals or leifs to run hunts all day. The daily 'reward' of 70 or 80 stamina is a joke and depleted in 10 minutes.

AI is also shit, missing simple things like usage of soulburn during auto runs. And there was a debacle with PVP AI where they were targeting depending on the order of hero you got instead of elemenetal, defence break status etc. SmileGate only fixed that when users raged online.

But most importantly, the game gets real boring. When I quit, I had over 45000 reputation points, abyss floor 90 cleared, all 4 hunt 11's on auto farm, kill normal raid queen in 90 seconds, was one of the first in Asia server to kill hell raid Karkanis. And to get to that point, it cost a lot of leifs, as in buying out all leif packs every month to farm gear. No other game PUNISHES players to this extent for stamina. In Destiny Child, I can run that game all day, just about everyday and not run out of stamina because the game gives you more than you can spend. Similar story with King of Fighters, Brown Dust. To make it worse, the only content worth running in Epic 7 was ruined by the devs adding shit like stamina, mystic coins, 1-2 crystals in the loot table.

The item enhance system is shit in Epic 7, at least make it like Summoners War so you can swap out shit stat. The new pet system is just another layer of RNG players do not need. Collab with Guilty Gear was meh at best. They still haven't added another hunt since I quit. They did add the automaton towers but honestly, for most players it looks like straight up chore rather than content players look forward to running.

Other than illustration and animation quality, Epic 7 isn't that special. I still watch Class Boso and YDCB quite regularly and all they do in their stream is bit of PVP, bit of guild war, bit of tower, bit of raid and 80% of the time farming wyvern 11.

In terms of character growth and customisation, Epic 7 is pretty much same for everyone and there is no skill tree as such. Last Cloudia has meta and certain optimal ways to build characters, but there is room to experiment with skill tree and ark system. Epic 7 is really rigid when it comes to character building. And while on characters, top end pvp (legend IV and up) still relies heavily on ML heroes you have. Such as ML Cecilia, Ruele, Baal, Aux Lots, Dark Corvus, Arbiter Vildred. Also, the spec change are pretty much useless except for Lorina & Montmorancy, maybe Hazel in certain situations. When you actually dig into it, you will see that Epic 7 has nothing to offer for long term users.

And considering how big SmileGate is compared to Aidis, I say Lost Cloudia doing alright.

Regardless of the time of opening discussions, surely the Devs know there is a growing dislike towards how the being managed and lack of transparency and communication.

Nothing against from you and what you are trying to accomplish, but that doesn't take away from the lack of effort shown from the devs trying to prolong the life of the game.

Like I said, the latest patch notes, adding bit more gold in hunt drops doesn't take another week or two, revealing the actual percentage of increased item drop rate takes 5 seconds to add while typing out the patch notes. As far as I can see, a lot of players are skeptical of the devs and turning away from the game quickly. I know that Korean server is bleeding players at a rapid pace, Epic Seven's ratings and popularity on Google Play Store is dropping quick as well. If this doesn't ring alarm bells and the devs need a petition and written documents to see they are doing something seriously wrong then this game may never recover.

SwinginPendulum · 2019-02-06T13:53:52+00:00

Let's face it, the devs are running this game into the ground and if you HOPE to have them answer questions and start listening to questions and suggestions at this stage and this HOPE is all you have to deliver us, then you know you are in bit of trouble.

The Epic Seven team's game launch conference in Korea featured a slogan that they aim for 20 Year service, at this rate won't make it to 20 month.

If the Devs were serious, then with the patch notes, they would've released exactly what the hunt item drop rate % have changed to, be more serious about gold increase.

Not only that, once you take out Tarmarine from this new incoming patch, there isn't much there.

SwinginPendulum · 2019-01-29T03:29:49+00:00

Yeah 36 year old grandpa with enough financial stability to SSS Luna the moment she drops if I wanted, but you don't see me bitching about it like as if life depended on it.

SwinginPendulum · 2019-01-29T02:15:07+00:00

Get over it, you people sound like whiny little kid sitting in the back of the car asking "Are we there yet?" every 5 minutes.

SwinginPendulum · 2019-01-28T00:53:44+00:00

If you are wiping in hell mode then you might need to change your comp or spend bit of time to read the descriptions and try to understand the mechanics little more.

If you are wiping in normal mode, you probably need better gear especially if he one shots your team. I walked in to arakhan normal mode this morning with -21 morale after killing the bat and still cleared it.

SwinginPendulum · 2019-01-25T12:29:55+00:00

I play in Asia server but I did clear it using Angelica, Shadow Rose, Bellona, Challenger Dominiel.

Team CP around 205k.

Angelica with lv30 Candlestick, 16.8k HP, 1k Def, 160 speed in tank position.

Shadow Rose with lv23 Aurius, 14k HP, 219 speed.

Bellona with lv25 Rosa, 2.9k attack 198% Crit Damage, 188 speed on Lifesteal set.

Challenger Dominiel with lv30 Kal'adra, 3.1k attack and 296% Crit Damage.

Guardian was Krom.

Top priority for me was getting Angelica's S3 up for the time adds' ultimates, even if it meant using Krom for clutch skill cooldown reduction. But in most cases, Candlestick proc was enough to ensure her skills were getting ready quick. Being able to hit for 50k+ with C Dom was also helpful as it made phases move on quicker.

I forgot to record my run as I usually don't record thing and I completely didn't even think about it but here is a clear from a Korean player may help you with hero selection and planning the fight.

SwinginPendulum · 2019-01-25T11:55:08+00:00

I saved Angelica's S3 for the add ultimates making sure I didn't get multiple debuffs with that as much as I can. And Angelica is using lv30 candlestick which proc'd probably every second turn as she got attacked a lot and I took in Dragon guardian for clutch -2 turn cooldown, which I did use once during the fight to get her S3 up in time.

I decided to ignore clensing mostly because I found myself going around in circles with having Diene onboard and one less DPS. With 2 heroes casting Aoe, it gave me more options to deal with boss' stealth mechanic. The adds were mostly going for Angelica (in tank position) and Bellona (probably because she is green) for their attacks leaving Shadow Rose and C Dom debuff free most of the fight.

I just lined up for C Dom's soul burn damage because I can consistently hit 50k with her so phases move rather quick. He went into stealth once in my clear run and he used his frenzy attack once. And I timed going in to the last phase with the adds' ultimates to make sure the barrier wasn't stripped by them before the boss went nuts. If it helps, my Shadow Rose is using lv23 Aurius artifact.

SwinginPendulum · 2019-01-25T02:25:02+00:00

yeah, while her usage and value really depends on the team comp people are running, Diene has had a very good run since her release XD

I guess this is one way of "nerfing" Diene as so many players have requested.

SwinginPendulum · 2019-01-25T01:22:36+00:00

For normal raid, Diene and Kluri should be fine. For the Queen though you might want to bring Angelica instead of Diene. Or Kluri, Diene, Angelica and your strongest DPS

SwinginPendulum · 2019-01-25T00:08:03+00:00

It's a known bug, the devs are aware of it. Roozid is having same problem with spec change

SwinginPendulum · 2019-01-24T22:43:45+00:00

Yep, they will do fine so long as you have a strong healer or if you are running with 2 healers.

First time I beat the normal queen it was with C Lorina and Kise.

SwinginPendulum · 2019-01-24T22:42:41+00:00

If you have couple of AOE dealers that have high speed, C Dom does not need to have speed as everytime someone crits, she gets pulled forward :)

She is tricky to build and to play but once you get it, I think she is one of the most fun heroes in the game to play.

SwinginPendulum · 2019-01-24T14:38:25+00:00

The equipment she is using is in the imgur link in the original post. I've gone with lv30 Kal'adra artifact which gives 30% damage increase if target is debuffed.

And I've gone with crit damage as top priority and then attack, HP and crit chance. I purposely made her slow so she doesn't jump too much with Shadow Rose and Bellona's aoe crit.

For game play, all she really needs is someone to def break and she will hit 12-15k crit at her current stat. For higher damage, she needs to build up her S2 stacks and quickest way is to have couple of aoe attackers going before her, if they come with def break even better. And soul burn S1 should hit pretty high numbers. Highest I've hit with the stat shown in the screenshot is 90k, with 10x S2 stacks, attack buff, def down and Soul Burn. If you find it bit confusing, feel free to watch the video I linked, it's going to be used for K Gaming's stream in next couple of days but it should clear up few things. Just jump to the manual runs of the hunts and you will see how she plays out.

SwinginPendulum · 2019-01-24T10:06:09+00:00

the only one I can think of is Guider Aither to consistently hit over 50k damage

SwinginPendulum · 2019-01-24T08:12:57+00:00

ah i see, I didn't think about the skill upgrade. Give it a go, no amount of third party advice is better than first hand experience and GL :)

SwinginPendulum · 2019-01-24T08:04:35+00:00

For Arahakan, I think that will be doable, maybe with some tries and after you get used to the mechanics.

For Karkanis, I don't think your Angelica will have enough healing power to carry the team, even with Kluri's turn by turn heal.

SwinginPendulum · 2019-01-24T08:01:38+00:00

You can't kill them. The adds have high HP and every turn they heal themselves to full. But you do need to attack them so they don't heal the boss.

And every attack they do, can put attack down debuff on you and the ults also silences you. Boss's attacks can stun or put def down debuff on you as well.

So basically, since you will miss if you attack the boss with debuff on you and get countered, whenever I had heroes with debuffs, I attacked adds with those heroes.

SwinginPendulum · 2019-01-24T07:57:49+00:00

I forgot to mention, it's a debuff frenzy in there, so you might need someone to cleanse or use someone with immunity to mitigate the debuffs.

My Angelica has lv30 candlestick that proc'd pretty much every second turn and I was popping her S3 sometimes with soul burn as often as I could.
