While you posting those.....
Mind asking how many SC you spended on them *honestly* and from what CR / skill you start with ?
Gold rush drop rate was noted quite low event though the cost to enter map pretty cheap (unless you have kikyo or the other 1 forgot name)
So if you able to get at least CR-3 its already felt like lucky
Considering I started a month ago, should be pretty obvious that I had nothing, as for SC I lost track of my SC because of the SC from daily login + event + I 3 starred some maps in the middle but I probably spent over 30 SC?
It should be noted that it's not as if I actually dropped a ton of them. It was more like I was pretty lucky with the CRing. As you can see, most of the skills weren't that high in the end.
I truly lucked out with the Emilia's though... only intended to see if I could get a copy for the heck of it but I didn't think it would drop every single run, I kept running it just to see how far the luck would go. Then if that wasn't enough, almost every single copy of it gave -1CR +1skill.
On a different topic...
I feel like attack really is an inaccurate measure of damage once accounting for attack speed. Could be a placebo but although Ricca doesn't have the highest attack among my units, Ricca seems to attack somewhat faster while Chloe seems to attack at valk speed or so. I assume Erenia is the same? Didn't really pay attention to her speed. I've consulted wiki but it seems like some of the rarer unit types don't have their aspds measured.
On the other hand if I'm not misunderstanding how damage works, low damage high speed has the fault of being useless against high def units where units that have high attack (even if slower speed) can get through the def and deal proper damage. I guess it's a trade off in the end.
Speaking of Ricca, her usage so far is a little troublesome because of being unable to heal and her natural regeneration is hardly enough to catch up to the damage against somewhat harder hitting enemies. She's tough but at the same time not really a unit I'd want to use for any heavy duty work. A bit contradictory for me since usually I'd want to throw strong units like her up to the frontlines.
Then there's also Emilia and Chloe and their significantly varying effectiveness depending on their skill activation... why do I feel like my team is gradually being filled with units like these. I'm beginning to think a 30% CD reduction Lian would be useful for my team.
From the wording of the post Petite made previously about the upcoming changes after maintenance, it seems like the male confidence bonus might not be in this update. The increase for male confidence bonuses was the one I was looking forward to the most because it would make some units slightly better than they previously were.
So out of all the missions, we get an idea of the units/classes that could be rebalanced/readjusted/updated:
Healer, Roberto, B.Iris
Archer, Stray, Nanaly
Summoner, Mage, Farne, Mehlis
Elf/Dwarf race, Olivia, Dorothy, Pupuru
Rogues, Betty, Cypria, Berna
Princess, Themis, Lilia, Sherry
Valkyrie, Pegasus Rider, Carrie, Ridy
Roberto's change seems to be the most drastic and it's hard to predict the actual change. B.Iris' change is unknown, but I can see them giving her a range increase like Liana.
Nanaly is aiming to get her crown back and Stray might become relevant for those interested in using him.
All I got out of the mission with Mehlis and Farne was that there might be a volcanic-terrain related ability. Think of it being similar to Eliza's AW ability.
Olivia's change is obvious and is the most minor change to her, but overall a big change. Now if they made her increase Elf/Dwarf attack part of her AW ability... then I'll be raising Raichi for sure. Dorothy is unknown to me since I don't use her or know anything about her.
I can see the change for rogues being only for those that has assassination as their skill. It could either be an increased chance to assassinate, an increased in attack speed, or less time delay between attacks.
Well, I have no idea what they'll do for the princesses. It's true that they're overshadowed by the Black-rarity overlords and have no chance to find use when Sybilla can swing her sword wildly and her attacks will connect to an enemy somehow.
The adjustment I can see they will give to Valkyries is making them give +2 sortie points per kill or letting you gain sortie points for every target they attack. The latter will be an improvement to them because of other units securing the kills, but it doesn't seem likely unless they had a system that knows which enemies a Valkyrie attacked. Pegasus Riders becoming relevant is good news since that class is easily overlooked unless you had the Black Pegasus Rider.
You must be registered to see the links
might be an event or trading post Pegasus Rider.
Of course this is all speculation. It won't be long until we get to see the actual and full changes after maintenance.
That is one of my favorite new units previewed so I would be quite happy if that were the case. Hope it's not a premium roll unit.
As for me, since I have Esta, any buffs to pegasus riders would be nice even though I'm content with her as it is. Heck, even just trading post/event ones would be great, because I would actually get to use Esta's AW ability when I get to that point.
need a 2nd opinion on this is one rainbow fairy worth more than the 3 silver archers required to cc a copy of bashira? or is it likely that I could use the same stamina it would require me to get those archers to get a rainbow from Tuesday daily? granted I would probably forcibly get shiho copies from the 30/2 map while hunting archers from it also

Well it depends on how much u roll gatcha (and get silvers) and the actual skill lvl of Bashira, along with your own demand for archers and fairies (which I assume is nearly the same since you are asking).
If you are going from 1 to 2, then the archers may be cheaper but if going from 4 to 5, use a fairy, don't even think it XD
Done with the event and........
Failed to get Carrie completion event (no i'm not spending SC for this >.<)
Quite happy with my SC stock back to 21 specially after Serra event
I should focus saving SC and ranking up 1st for now for preparation future farming / item collection again (go away my greedy desire >.<)
The bad part of starting late in this game is those revival mission will seduced me greatly >.< and they quitely costly to get enuff CR for it like Sorano event.... can't remember how much SC i spend for her 4 copy (got CR-3 / 4/5 skill (1 RB fairy) so i'm happy).

A perfect example of how much SC needed to get revival unit....
But i remember u having bad luck during this event (even with 2x chance rate CR) so yeah... RNG is a real pain
Did you awaken your Sorano after that ? I like the stat boost from her awaken, but.... the stat cost and the timing on skill its still difficult for me to use her >.<
On another note i love summoner area atk range and atk power..... seriusly nice
*a little something to mess with for next event aw orb..........
Which class orb you going to have *TOO MUCH* of it.... i remember someone mention dark fighter around 25-28 orb on the last gold rush* (petite was that you?)*

do I actually need to feed lians copies before the maintenance hits or will the costdown x2 chance be retained even afterward?
ugh this is impossible trying to cc all these units and feed them to each other at the last minute because I couldnt buy more crystals until today blowing them all on magic crystals beforehand wasn't a good idea
Note:i run angel map 40+ time to get Betty but ultimately failed
Plat Units:
2x Archer Lita (made her cr-1 su +1)
Alchemist Corinne
2x Puppeteer Ricca (made her cr-1 su +1)
3x Angel Chloe (made her cr-2 su +4 with nigels)
Angel Chloe
Now time to earn some affaction and lvl more units
5 out of 7 map completion awards with only a few SCs spent, not bad I suppose. Just missing Fedora and the gold Samurai, of which I don't particularly care too much about.
Platinum drops on the other hand are sort of meh...
Twice the heads means twice the hunger!? Unprecedented Shark Panic! Bikini-clad women frolic along the beaches until a giant, ancient shark suddenly appears...

Subjugation Mission "Awoken Subterranean Dragon Clan":
-Event Lasts Until July 23rd. -Cost Won't Regenerate (Bring Valkyries and Reinforcement Soldiers).
Introduction:
Erenia: "My name is Erenia. Prince, I have heard tales of your bravery."
Erenia: "Long ago, there was a was race called 'dragonewts' they say fought as monster troops during the Millennium War."
Erenia: "Their entire bodies are covered in thick scales, and they possess uncommon strength. Furthermore, they say the long-lived dragonewts are highly intelligent."
Erenia: "I heard that one clan of dragonewts that hid themselves deep beneath the earth long ago responded to the monsters' revival, and were plotting an invasion to the upper world, but then gave up and are now co-existing peacefully with humans."
Erenia: "However, unlike the earlier clan that turned moderate, I received word that the seal was released on another clan of dragonewts led by the 'Dark Elder' who had been sealed during the Millennium War for his brutal cruelty."
Erenia: "I fear the seal was released in accordance with the monsters' increase in activity..."
Erenia: "Unlike the moderate dragonewts, 'Black Elder' is from a clan of dragonewts who enjoy conflict, so it's impossible to settle the matter by reasoning with them. In other words, we have no choice but to fight."
Erenia: "That's where my request comes in... There's a village where many humans live above the revived dragonewts invasion route."
Erenia: "Considering the enemies' forces, I regret to say this, but it's not possible to stop them with just the power of the dragon knighthood I belong to..."
Erenia: "We built a base at the entrance of the cavern where the dragonewts had been sealed. How about it, Prince? Do you care to stop the dragonewts led by the 'Black Elder' at that base for the sake of the people living in the village?"
Erenia: "..."
Erenia: "I'm relieved... so you will fight them. As expected of the kind-hearted Prince... *cough* *cough*"
Erenia: "At least you're famous for being a good-natured prince! I'm reassured. I'll lead you to the base."
Erenia: "The battle this time will be a 'Great Subjugation Mission' where the goal is to just defeat the enemy."
Erenia: "Great Subjugation Missions are different from regular missions in several ways, so please pay attention."
Erenia: "First, the goal of a Great Subjugation Mission is to 'defeat the enemy', nothing more."
Erenia: "Defeating the enemy is much more important than preventing casualties on our side."
Erenia: "You'll clear the mission even if your life reaches zero, and the number of enemies you defeated will be tallied in the results."
Erenia: "Please focus on defeating as many monsters as possible without fear of being wounded."
Erenai: "This time, your deployment cost won't regenerate over time."
Erenia: "So, don't forget to include those with the skill 'Reinforcement' or Valkyries in your team."
Erenia: "Finally, even if you defeat the enemy, you won't receive any EXP, gold, or drops, so keep this point in mind."
Erenia: "Now then, Prince, let's begin the 'Great Subjugation Mission'."
Oh my gosh. What a lovely new illustration and it was surprising to me. I'll miss her other AW illustration, but I love this one too. Thank you, Aigis~.
(no i'm not spending SC for this >.<)
