Hey guys, just started this game and saved up 50 flower gems to get the extra roll but I see that there's three gachas(the premium and limited) to roll in, so which one is probably the best for a new player? Or is there some event I'm supposed to wait for to get the most bang for my gems

There's not a huge difference. The Limited priority gachas (new character and reissued) have slightly higher chances of drawing the three featured characters, if you like one of them. Premium doesn't have that. The drop rate for rarity is the same across all of them so I rarely if ever pull the premium.
On rare occasions there are ticket gachas that have given a guaranteed gold ticket on a 50 gem draw, so those are worth saving for...but if you're new then there are higher odds that you will get something useful to you now anyways.

Welcome to the game.
Since you're probably still in the middle of leveling your basic knights, you're probably running low level maps (like 2-1) and farming manyus on secret gardens - therefore you don't need any powerful units right now.
I'd advise you to wait for a ticket gatcha. That's a special one that gives you a 4* guaranteed ticket for every single pull and a 5* guaranteed ticket for every 10+1 pull. In the end these are the only gatcha to go for if you're not planning to spend any real cash on the game.
It is true that you could get something good with a pull right now, but nothing is guaranteed - worst case scenario you'd get 11 3* girls. You can get a few 4*, but having a 5* in that draw is already considered lucky. With the ticket gatcha, you have a 5* guaranteed on a 10+1 pull (since you get a ticket to use, that would actually be a 10+1+1 pull).

yes, yes wait for ticket gacha, and play with your 2-3 star team next 3 month. its so fun.

You'll pick up event girls and with a possible anniversary event for 1 year on nutaku in the next few weeks I'd at least hold them till the end of the month

The 'hold till ticket' is the BEST bet but it is dull and boring, the right and sensible thing generally is

Never use your Flower Gems on the premium gacha. It's a trap. There is nothing more than the available girls before the current event in.
Use them on the priority gacha only if there is a featured girl you really want. If not, don't spend on it. Or you can try if you really need a new gold but it's not advised. But keep in mind that "increased chance of getting featured girl" means "slightly increased chance to get the featured 5*/6* ONLY if you get the 6% or 0.5% to get the 5* or 6*.
Keep your FG for the rare ticket gacha. It's the better and safer option.

answer is none, look around here...... the same people here just pay for their girls and shit

just expand your character inventory if anything

AHAHAHAHA

and why did someone mention event girls, they're not what the op is looking for and they'll be dispensable lmao

It's a game. It's meant to be something you enjoy. Play it however you see fit, so long as you enjoy it. Or rather, so long as you know your options, and understand what you're giving up by choosing one over the other. Which is presumably why this topic was made, so...

Me, I usually just save up until I have 50, then hit the priority one. It's a nice middle ground. It's not quite as efficient as the "free ticket" one, but it's always available, and acts as a reward of sorts for playing the month or so required for those gems. On the other hand, it's more efficient than then single pulls, and I'm not THAT impatient that I can't save up for a little longer for my potential shinies.

If you wanna hoard and don't mind waiting for the most efficient option, then go for it. If you want to spend them all immediately on solo pulls because you value getting things now over efficiency, go for that instead (I see screenshots on the forums periodically of people doing solo pulls so obviously some do). Either way, just be aware of what those options are - an uninformed choice that you later regret is the only real "bad" choice.

With what I know about how easy FG are to get for new players within the first 100 days (Including the new 10, 30, 50 100 day bonuses) what option you choose to spend them on is not that important. From a beta players perspective however let me say this... Adding more slots for girls is well worth the investment.

As for gatcha, I find that I get a 5* 90% of the time if I roll my 10+1 roll just after a new event and thus the new gatcha has been released (within 1 day of release). Almost every time I have rolled a 10+1 at a time NOT near release it has been bad with no 5*.

Could just be RNG but to me at least over that last year of playing that has been the trend.
