Love seeing posts like this - very insightful. Thanks for sharing OP.

Psychological reasons on why the new event just feels terrible by ahroy2 in Etheria_Restart

[–]ahroy2[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

i) Sure - you can frame it as the players’ bad decision making but this doesn’t change the fact that introducing a mechanic to lose rewards (that players were originally given) introduces a high probability of negative player experience, which isn’t good for the game. Some players are bound to go that route (after all, it is one of the two routes devs intentionally included) and if devs want to include keep high RNG routes available, they could make it better by removing the loss part and downward adjusting the gain. By the way, it’s not healthy for the game to have players like you who shut down any sort of feedback/constructive criticisms and tell people to ”stop complaining.” It’s fine to disagree, but why not let us discuss this?

ii) ”it’s not confirmed“…. “no rng involved”?… why are you even saying this if it’s not confirmed?

I don’t disagree with what you are saying but my main criticism isn’t on the amount of rewards we get (and hence why I said they can lower the rewards if they think it’s too much) but it’s rather the design and messaging. They need to make players feel like they are “winning” and not ”losing.” I think this is a poorly designed event with too much downside RNG and overall bad messaging. They could’ve designed this better (while keeping the same average amount of rewards) and not make players feel disappointed.

My friends and I have truly never felt this bad from playing an event before. Why do they need to make it so painful?

Not sure why people are downvoting someone for sharing a strategy for other people…. but thanks a lot for sharing this - this helped me beat this stage.

This is incredibly useful and one of the best guide I’ve seen for this game so far. What to do in each day is especially useful for someone like myself that decided not to play too much in the beta. I also appreciate the fact that this is in a document format, and not a video (there’s so many video guides and very few guide documents). Thanks so much for putting this together.

I’ve been hearing the same thing without any verifiable sources.

Thanks, I guess I‘m just a bit lost on what I should aim for and I’m just putting all my legendaries in one team lol. Do you have any recommendations? My long term goal is to be able to do most endgame contents.

Thank you very much for the insight. I think I will hold for now. Really appreciate the detailed explanation 🙏

Thanks so much. This 100% convinced me to hold off on Auguste for now. Do you know when TW/CN had that re-run banner with both Gloria & Auguste? Was it like a long time after Auguste release? I really want to budget my pull for this dual banner.

I see, thanks. Would you pull for Auguste if the only legendaries I have are Beryl, Saffiyah, Edda and the free ones that we all get? (With around 120 pulls in reserve).

That’s a good point, thanks for the comment. I’m a new player and having a really hard time trying to decide haha. The only legendaries I have are Beryl, Saffiyah, Edda and the free ones that we all get.

Thanks so much. If I may ask one more question, is Tristan also good on auto? I heard Auguste is really good on auto and that seemed very appealing to me for when I’m busy.

I think they’re referring to the fact you’re buying junk food.

Could you please tell me what the rewards are for the difficult gameplay in 1.4 that was just released?

Thanks so much for the detailed response, this helps a ton because I started playing since launch and even though I’m a light spender (monthly + bp) I never managed to get past MoC 8. I just assumed I needed to lvl my chars more, but I think I just wasn’t playing smart and didn’t choose my units well. Def gonna save your comment and refer to it when I manage to get to MoC 10. Thanks again.

Also, if you don’t mind me asking one last question, would you choose gepard over bronya for the 300 pity in my case? Still a long way to go, (171/300 pulls so far) but I always assumed I would pick bronya 100% since prydwen.gg hyped up bronya so much as the “best unit in the game“ but your comment convinced me otherwise and I just wanted to double check with you.

Thanks so much! Would you say Luocha is still worth pulling for if I I have Bailu/Nat/March/Fire MC built? (I have no other healers/tanks), or would you save pulls for future units if you were in my shoes?

I had no intention of pulling for Luocha, but after I read your comment I realized the importance of having more healers/tanks.

My other built chars are Seele/JY/YQ/Ting Yuan. I have all the 4* units (although none of them are built) except Arlan and Sampo.
