    According to the notes, increasing skill level and equipment slots of rarity-promoted characters will only be possible with rainbow skill and equipment flowers respectively, which means a rarity-promoted 6★ will likely be stuck at 1/1 for a long time...

    Rainbow Skill Flower of Kodaibana
    500 life crystals
    Rainbow Equipment Flower of Kodaibana
    *Only packaged in specific DMM point promos

    It's also stated that simply trying to increase rarity-promoted characters' skill level and equipment slots with their exact copies, or upgrade flowers (as in the case of event characters or characters in the bond crystals tab, for example) won't work.

    Presumably, this restriction is so that it won't be that easy to full-spec a rarity-promoted 6★ to 5/4 over any true gacha 6★.

    Thank you, buddy.

    I won't hoard FGs for 5* and continue with my original plan.

    Man i wish i could get my hands on Aconite. She would be my perfect target for promoting.

    Btw. how does your final Debuff Team look like? I am curious cause i think we will have quite similar team members

    It's good for Irincium???, she can have a CANDY TREE for use in future.
    Well she name flat but she doesn't flat at all.

    I'll jump the Star Boost System for sure, in future.
    I can change my starter gold girls team to be come rainbow.
    And talking about the amount of crystal, we may get it easy than we thought.
    Dev will deliver some as gift for sure.
    Also not to mention that thios system will have some problem until Dev have to do crystal compensate.

    The only problem, well not exactly a problem, is that the girl who you want to rainbownize is usually your waifu but normally you should already use dressbloom/skillbloom on them. Some might even use ampy on them but I guess it shouldn't be a problem since amped stat should be carried over. The point is ideally you want to rainbownize from fresh girl right. As I said, very clever strategic marketing of dev team.

    Losing the skill level and slots is painful but there is still some benefit. Promoting someone with a level 5 skill reduces the rainbow shard cost by 60. Four slots is another -120 shards. The preview also shows ampies being retained.

    After reading up on this and seeing everyone's posts, I have to say my reaction right now is this: Meh. Now I don't mean to insult the FKG DMM devs as I certainly can appreciate the purpose of this kind of update. But it's meh for me because it doesn't fit my focus currently. Right now I am focused on leveling and amping up all my rainbows, which I have a lot of. On top of that, I have so many golds that I wouldn't even begin to know which 5* waifu to choose. And it will likely bit a little while before I have enough of these crystals to do so.

    Frankly, even with having quite a few 5* waifus, I would prefer to use this feature as a strategic means to help round out my rainbows. Will I need that final and last girl with crit skill or another skill for a certain squad? Or will I still be in dire need of a good Blunt rainbow by that point to where I can choose from a pool of Blunt 5* waifus? Either way, it's not too much a pressing need and I figure I will let the devs continue to figure things out and make tweaks where needed as time goes on. So yeah, I'm pretty chillax about this specific update to be honest.

    Considering how rare the upgrade flower are (dressblooms even more so), the restriction of not being able to use them is retarded.

    I guarantee you that one will be lifted, at the moments its more like a stop gap for whales than anything else, but once the new systems gets settled in they will either make it viable or will introduce a specific new item to upgrade the skills and equipment.

    Personally I would not promote a 5/5 4/4 girl into a rainbow. If I get another dupe of my 5* Nadeshiko, then she will get the uprade as I think she will be OP counter girl. The discount is not worth it either as you are literally burning 3 dupe girls and possibly 2-4 skill blooms for meager discount on the Promotion.

    Guys think longterm - this is a longterm freebie just like rainbow coins. Its not like you have to shift your focus on this. There aint enough girls to promote anyway atm. Just keep doing what you are doing and when you finally get around to it, you will have plenty of all the stuff you need to do it. Just treat this update like any other - if this feature wasnt added none of us would even notice, and would keep on doing our own stuff in the game. Just because it was added people immediately think how to milk the new system and are dissapointed that its not worth it right now. Just chill, relax, do your thing and eventually the right time to use it will come. Less complaining for no reason. If to many people complain (not here but in JP) the devs might get sick of the underappreciative attitude, and remove it completely... I d rather take a freebie long term feature than no feature at all, is all I am saying.
