I feel ya. 10 pulls, no 5*.
I'm pretty sure I've hit my peak burnout point anyway, so I may just stop playing. I'm surprised to say it but life is getting busy and staying up to date with the game is becoming a chore with diminishing returns.
Don't get me wrong, I've had a great time with the game but my time may have finally come.
I agree with all of what you said.
I guess I just haven't gotten my hopes up and sort of wrote WB off. All WB makes me look forward to is more units. But I bet they'll have to help us again. I just hope they don't give awful rewards this time. Better rewards would make more people try harder.
And yeah, the Kemomo fiasco really smothered the Destiny Child fire. I still don't like to see those units.
I haven't had any issues since and have mostly gone back to normal (besides not spending any money since then), but today I'm feeling sour over feeling mislead concerning the blood gem banner.
With each WB we get more and more prepared. We don't have to be in tip top shape. I feel better about this one, though I haven't been spending much onyx lately so I have an alright stockpile. I'll just use it selectively when the WB is announced and do okay for it. That being said I've been playing from day 1 and have built up a lot since then. For newer players WB is extremely tough for sure. But they can let the vets, whales, and cheaters do most of the work.
World Boss poll 35Yeah it really just takes the fun out of it. I was able to get all 3 banners to +1 and enjoyed the event. I didn't have realize how good Hatsune Miku is for future things so I didn't keep pulling for her. But all in all I was satisfied and enjoyed the event.
This event doesn't seem to be fun for anybody, really. People are in between wanting to get 1 of each for collection purposes and wanting it to just be over. Not only that, but it has left such a sour taste in my mouth that I won't even want to ever use the Kemomos I end up with.
Major whiff for the marketing team. Nobody comes out having gained from this except for experience on what not to do.
"PVP isn't fair! I should be able to make a team of all tanks, but I keep losing!"
Gotta play the meta or find a way to beat it. A speed team doesn't matter as much if you can nuke one of their childs in the first turn. Or if you have a child that can cast immortal before FT starts. Or if you can out speed them. There are different ways to play, but you gotta find what works. A lot of things won't work if it isn't efficient.
Hey, if you're having fun then it isn't wasted. As mentioned above, eventually there is Endless Battle with the tiers of natural 5*, natural 4*, and then natural 3*. Looks like you're already getting ready to be the 3* champ π
Also I'm in the same boat with 1* and 2* blobs. I want to check it off my collection! π
The 1* fire mats were a nice addition to WB, I'll give you that.
Unfortunately whatever they do to placate us will fall short in my opinion if this garbage Kemomo situation isn't dealt with.
I'm not a huge spender-- I've only bought the monthly pack #2 consistently-- but I won't be getting it or anything else again for the time being. We'll see how the issue is dealt with. I'm expecting to be disappointed, but they've been great with these kind of things before so I have to have some faith.
It's all good though. As a player who has played since day 1, I'm running out of things to use the extra stamina from the daily pack on. Most of my child's are leveled up all the way. Now if there were an onyx dungeon to spend stamina on...
As for the daily crystals I'm missing out on, what does it matter if the future banners available to us are this bad? I'll pull with what I get for free.
They're taking strides though. I've gotten more onyx to save for when I know what the next event is. It's still pretty easy to blow through 250k though. There are many child's I'd like to use (even some maxed out at lvl 60) that I don't try our because I don't have the only for them.
Also I've been able to 6* some of my child's with the mats they've been giving out. That's pretty.
To go on rambling, I made a KR account when this Kemomo banner started. All the features they have are great and look like a lot of fun! Plus it's cool to see some of the upcoming childs! I don't want to switch over though because I have put in a lot of time to be where I am in Global. I hope that with the continual rolling out of features in Global, one day we'll match KR. So many events and SO many nice event prizes.
Hey Julthor. Props to you for seeing an issue and trying to make it right. I think it would be true to say that pretty much all of us could find an issue within ourselves that is in need of addressing, but you chose to actually take that step. That's big of you.
As an aside, for myself ive found that if something someone says pisses me off, I usually type out my response, sit for a moment, and then decide that the whole thing isn't worth it and let it go. Is this the best practice? Maybe sometimes but not all the time. I know that it is easy for my temperament because I look to avoid confrontation which can lead to issues that need to be addressed not being addressed. Maybe I should look to identifying when I need to go forward with my grievances as something I need to work on for myself.
But I digress. I wanted to say that I thought your message to the dev team was spot on. Thanks for making your concerns known in such a thought-out way. π
Yeah it sucks.
Some may say, "hey at least it's a 5*!"
If I wanted a different 5* I would pull on the regular banner. It's more of a disappointment. I've gotten a few 5* from these pulls. This morning I pulled and saw Davi. I said to myself, "finally!" thinking that I couldn't have the luck of getting a different 5* AGAIN. Then this. It's disheartening.
The problem is there will now be a gap in my (and other people's) collection. I'm also missing Dark Maat but I'm not bothered because I can get her later. So far I've come up empty on Kemomos doing everything i can to maximize my crystals to pull them. I've gotten a few 5* in my pulls, but that's not what I want from my pulls. I'm pulling specifically for a Kemomo before they're gone for good.
I read a more favorable method on Reddit that someone suggested. A copy of all 3 should be able to be obtained during the event through other in-game methods for people's collections. If you want to uncap them, then you'll have to do these extra pulls. Now if you make it so the unit isn't even worth uncappping...well that's on them.
Whatever. What a mess.
They've fixed things on the fly before i.e. the snowflake debacle.
I'm of the opinion that they have no interest in changing the rates or altering what they're doing. They're just waiting for anger to blow over and dissipate with time.
Personally I'm still playing but I've stopped spending any money on the game.
Yeah. Sometimes my patience wanes. I have 19k crystals at the moment and I have to keep telling myself that I'm not spending anymore on 4* fodder pulls(...besides the 2 I did today. Shhhh)!
I DO have 17 4* aurora hearts just sitting here. Maybe I'll get rid of some of those since I will never catch up with the required fire materials. Hmmm
True. I have Aria+1 and Lisa+5 that I could evolve.
I just did two pulls to get more 4* fodders, so my other thought was to 6* both Abaddon+1 (a personal favorite) and Midas+1 and level them up with my Brownie+2 (where was this RNG luck when I was desperately trying to get a single Liberated Maat!?).
In order to have enough fodders to 6* 2 childs early this weekend I'd have to use one of my Red Cross copies, which isn't a huge deal but I'd generally like to keep my Nat5* for whatever is implemented in the future.
Ah well. I'll see what I feel like doing when the time comes!
