The guest party always consists of new girls implemented in the gacha/relevant to the current story. It's a way for people to preview the abilities and sprites of the new girls in battle outside of the banner sidebar.

Since the first two or so chapters of events are piss easy anyways, you may as well use it as a chance to preview new girls with the guest party.
Well, if it worked properly anyways. But since we're behind on DMM anyways i guess most people who cared enough would just look at the Japanese wiki.

every time you add/remove a character from a squad it refreshes the raid boss list so just keep doing that

And I'm done with this 1st phase of the event. Still had 300 stars and 120 bells in stock and 2,5 days left before 2nd phase. It's nice.
Reissued event done too.

It is your choice, but I need to let you know that there are more rewards than the last event, so the maximum amount of stars to get all rewards is exceeding 40K.

I am aiming to collect all rewards since they are free (although they cost my time of life).

dat explains why there weren't as much raid bosses compared to last event

I was wondering if it felt slow or not as intense as the last event

been killing raid bosses left and right

I don't see less bosses than last boss event. I need to refresh game to see bosses as often as before. Or rather there is enough of them if you refresh game to always use your RP on 80/90 level special ones.

But I only want jewelleries, manyus and ampies for the second phase. Gifts are only bonuses if I got stars leftovers.

Everything in phase 2 will cost 34,5k starts. 5k of this are gifts. Saying you want everything part gifts as gifts will be a bonus if you have left overs, when you barely finished phase 1 is kinda well "GL to you sir, you will need it" kind of deal.

There will be better bosses in phase 2 dropping more starts per kill/spawn, but if they will have as much hp as red ones had last event, then I hope people learned and wont poke them with a single 2* level 1 girl cause that fucking doesn't help and actually lot of those bosses escaped to the point I stopped spawning them and attacking at least till I saw they would surely die.

As for my personal progress in this event: phase 1 shop is clear, 10k5 starts accumulated for sake of phase 2, and 250 bells to spawn better 20 bells bosses in phase 2.

My strategy is kinda selfish for phase 1. I don't spawn bosses with bells. Used stamina to finish reissue (do phase 2 maps and get everything from shop), and use it to do the nation fights as I didn't touch them yet. Else I run 40 stamina event map to get bells and LCs. I use all my RBs on 80/90 level special bosses others spawn, and if I spawn normal boss with that 40 stamina map, then I just share it not poking it myself - I get around 20 stars from that (finder reward) which just adds to the avg I get from 80/90 bosses I spent RBs on.

Thou on phase 2 all the bells will go towards spawning better special boss. If they will give as much stars as they were giving stuff in previous RB event (and same amounts dropped for normal/yellow special bosses now vs previous event suggest it), then it will be 292 stars for 80 level one and 320 for 90 level (or 175/192 for people who didn't spawn them but participated) - so with average of 310 starts per boss I have close to 4k "stored" in bells so nearly half of what I need to clear phase 2 shop .
