Yeah, I'm not crazy about this event's rotation either. Rather, fuck glasses, fuck monocles, but dolphin Lantana/Hypericum (just my first impression of Delphinium) is alright.

But people in Discord were pulling golds/rainbows left and right today. I think 2-3 people even yolo'd Daisy, somehow.

So I did my usual NG rolls and got nothing except a dupe Nandina. Was gonna call it quits there, but given the above, I figured, "fuck it, one more".

->Open Spoiler<-

Welp.

About the nuking complaints: For raid boss events, I think it's better to do damage as opposed to leech, but obviously you shouldn't come in with your 400k+ TP squad and kill every boss in a single one-point sweep. I'd actually suggest a squad with a max TP of 50k (though 40k is probably more than enough), so that you're still doing some damage and helping the bosses to die, but not knocking off a million HP and robbing people of the event currency. If there's less than an hour left for a boss, especially a summoned one, that's when it's okay to nuke in my opinion. There's a point where you have to stop caring about courtesy and start caring about currency.

Clever. I like it.

Still, I think even 60 minutes is too long for a raid boss. By 30 minutes, I expect one to at least almost be dead, if not nuked by then. Chances are I'll have run another map by then, and I don't want to see that the previous raid boss I summoned still isn't gone by the time I finish the run.

This isn't really an answer to this RB Topic but merely an afterthought; but I think it's important that we consider that there might be not a fixed rule how we should deal with RB but instead it might be a bit more flexible. While it might be better at some events to only poke them at other it might be better to nuke them instead. This can also happen through changes in the game like for example the change from 3 RB Points to 6.

no, destroy all raid bosses at sight.

I won't nuke an ally's boss until it has < 60 minutes left, but I think that within 30 minutes you've probably gotten 75-85% of the people who might hit it. I tend to only be a bit miffed at the people who nuke within 5 minutes of spawn.

This is what I do but apparently it's difficult for some people. Before this event, my weak raid squad was doing just 10-20k of damage typically, so I could hit a boss 3-4 times without much chance of killing it if it was full health, which made getting quest completion easier. With this event I've adjusted that up a bit so they are doing closer to 100k-200k or so of damage which is a contribution but not a nuke by any means. Phase 2 if there are lots of bosses coming close to escaping I'll hit them with my max raid damage team. Although as long as bosses are only hitting once per turn, they are going to be much easier to kill than the previous event phase 2 bosses. (And yes the 200 point damages on phase 2 event bosses that are escaping is about as annoying as a nuke in the first 3 minutes).

While I find it fun to see what the girls can do let loose on occasion, this just means less raid points and less seeds for everyone. I can one-point nuke pretty much everything but the phase 2 event bosses at this point, and plenty of other people can too. I choose not to because I can let my allies get quest completion and seeds, and it's a win-win if they share as well.

No ally request in sight, guess they're too lazy to adjust a new team more than being stingy.
But no matter, for today is manyu time! Hope I get lots of yellow than purple though...

I think these raid bosses are too weak even if you just set it to allies only

don't mind if anyone nukes mine

just need to keep on changing equipment to spawn raid bosses that are gone in a few secs

Personally, I am not digging the event girl. Nor little dolphin girl with her slight head tilt and psycho "come here and play with me hehe" smile. Yikes! Damn that creepiness is the one thing holding me back for rolling for Rosemary, whom I actually do like. Will have to think the risk over or going with the reissues gatcha, all of which are lovely busty women. In the meantime, I'll just go for the jewelry/ampies instead.

On the RB note, is anyone having problems? I am finding I am going to have to nuke any lvl 90 like schoolgirl pest because for some reason it is freezing up my browser when it switches to the next team. So if I don't nuke it, I can't get the screen to pop up the request for help because it's frozen. Oddly enough, it does fine when it is a normal schoolrep pest. I'll hit those light and share with allies at least until I can figure out why the summoned pests freak out on my browser.

Hi-five! Yeah, dark and busty mature women FTW

Hungry: I'm a little surprised Rosemary isn't your type too, to be honest. I thought she'd be right up your alley but I guess Megane girls are not for you. XD

If her H scene has whips and femdom, then maybe :V
