Exactly. The Cost per pull is to big, and there is to much junk in the gacha. These two factors combined turned this event of which concept I also liked, as stated previously - into horrible, boring and unfullfilling grind fest.
FU Asian Grind loving bastards... (Nothing against Asians, I do like em as people, however their obsession with grinding is out of the norm at which I tend to operate T__T).
Were the prices lower/Not increasing per each Reset, even with all the junk in the box it would be much more enjoyable.

Game isn't down eventhough it's updating time. Stages are no longer accessible though.

The event didn't turn out that bad for me, personally. Got stuck in only 2 out of 7 rounds (5th and 7th) and was done by Friday. As what Drynix remarked, it could still be improved though.

I think it was pretty okay.
The first few boxes might've contained mostly crap, but those were pretty cheap to run as well.
Boxes 6 and 7 were expensive, but also contained very good fillers.
Boxes 4 and 5 could perhaps use some tweaking, as getting stuck on these two boxes is a turning point, whether the player is guaranteed to clear everything in time, or starts risking to not complete the gacha due to unlucky rolls, while the fillers are a bit "meh", making these boxes a bit frustrating.

Other options would be reducing the cost to play the gacha by about 5-10% (yes, "just" about 5-10%) or increasing the event drop by about 5% (the results wouldn't be exactly the same, but the difference is pretty marginal).

The event is a "grind" event. But then, *every* event except maybe the medal type is a grind event. But, what were you going to do anyway after you finished an event? Oh, right, GRIND 12-1/12-3/12-5 again... Seriously, stop complaining about grinding events, the whole game is about grinding, if you don't want to grind any maps over and over, you're playing the wrong game.

Well but there is a slight, yet humongous difference between time restricted grind, and free form grind.

I strongly dislike timed events in games (like - You have 5 minutes, drive this guy from one side of the map to the other). In this case its "collect massive amount of crap in 2 weeks".

I would not mind the grind if the restrictions of event completition would be set lower thus alleviating part of the stress and frustration that goes along with completing it. I play this to enjoy a relaxing time watching cute anime girls smash some bugs, not to cry blood and sweat, hoping I make in time for the deadline. I have plenty of that crap at work. *shrugs shoulders*

If you ask me, I take grinding over 3* RNG salt for max girl anyday.

Each to his own I suppose.

I´ve sent you a PM.

Wait wait wait..Monopastrum is INSTANTLY not available in the exchange center? I had left her sitting there the entire time, going to get her after I got all of her upgrades (I managed 6). Every other even we've done you've been able to mess around in the exchange center AFTER the deadline.

Please tell me I'm missing something here. UGH.

I have to wonder why you don't simply get her in the first place.

Seriously. Why do people put things off at the last minute?

Someone else was complaining that they didn't get to use their rainbow ticket after spending on the $10 roll.

Seriously, people.

Glad I had rng on my side for my last roll with the gacha still half full. Fuck this event
