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.

I think we only discuss, and from what I read nobody really want to jump into this boosting star thing right now. Even me.
But in future I'll do it for sure.
I can't resist the possibility of having rainbow Purple Tulip and Purple Pansy in my first 20 girls team.
Also Hoto-chan, my first gold ever in FKG universe.
And if this system not OK, Yo-Game dev will adjust or do something.
Considering that they always monitor everything player done in game.
They will find the way.
Yeah i am certain the devs will tweak the system in the future. They will balance it over time.
For me i would love to have a 6* Dahlia. I hope she will get good upgrades after promoting
I am only five 10+1 rolls away before i reach 680 crystals so it's not that bad.

and the problem is, they feel the discontent of the players and try to fix something, but the rainbow crystals are too early, we had to add new ampi first, so that we can further upgrade the old characters, and then add a 5 * upgrade to 6 * Escht, but not just three
I would update several, for example so
Update

no update

Just drop by...
Fun Fact! I just notice we have 50% off currency for flipping card...
Only until you hit the jackpot (blooms or equipment), after that the price returns to normal
