Also considering Acacia, but not liking her design as much as the aforementioned three. Would any of them be a good choice?

And I've also been wondering about 5* knights from events. Are they weaker than those you might draw with gems or bought with NG? Not really in the position to buy the 5* ticket at the moment.

Thank you very much for your guidance!

1) Based on your 3 choices, you seem to be a fan of Monety's art. Alpinia and Kerria are also very solid choices (from the same artist), and ones I would recommend over Victoria/Bride and Lycoris (though I love all three). If you lean more towards function over form, Dendrobium would be my first recommendation.

2) Please take a read over this thread where the 5* gacha vs. event girls was discussed: http://harem-battle.club/flower-knig...ower-gems.html

today's deal is a rainbow dressbloom for 1000 zimbabwe dollars

Oh, it's a lot more than 1000 ZWL. Zimbabwe stopped using ZWL years ago and when the banks finally converted all balances to USD two years ago it had gotten to 35,000,000,000,000,000 (quadrillion) ZWL = 1 USD. The notorious 100,000,000,000,000 (trillion) notes that went for 0.4 USD eight years ago are now sold to collectors for $100, making a de facto exchange rate of 1,000,000,000,000 (trillion) ZWL = 1 USD.

I imagine most people don't care, but I found the story fascinating years ago.

edit: changed ZWD to ZWL as I'd forgotten about the iterations of Zimbabwe's currency (the original was the ZWD, then it was changed three more times as the value kept plummeting, in the end the 100 trillion ZWL was equivalent to 10,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 (octillion!) ZWD)

No, thats actually interesting. Thanks for the info. I remember a friend of mine brought one of those to class when I was still in high school (ages ago by now), and I was like "What the .... is that a One milion bill right there ?! "

Thank you very much for your reply! In that case, I shall pick one of the three you suggested!

And that is a very informative thread. I've been suspicious because the two knights I managed to get, Bolivian Sunset and Clematis, have been dropping like flies against intermediate pests who are of lower levels than they are. Granted, they're not evolved, and I couldn't unlock all of Bolivian Sunset's equipment slot and 5/5 skill levels...

Oh well, here's to more tickets on future daily deals!

Don't think I can spend anymore. Getting tight. Wish I could for the dressbloom.

today's deal is a gold dressbloom which are becoming more important as blooms are actually being implemented now

Hope they bloom Cymbidium next.

Hope they bloom an event girl so the majority aren't twiddling their thumbs.

The problem with event girls is that they are not worth using even when bloomed. Bloom them, lvl to 80 with 2nd affection at 100% and they are only maybe = to a current non bloomed 6* with no 2nd affection and that INCLUDES the first 3 who actually had decent stats.

In addition, their passives are worse for sure, their actives are worse for sure and their active rates are worse for sure. This is all at lvl 5 skills for the event girls and lvl 1 for the 6*.

Compared to gatcha golds a bloomed event is better then a non bloomed gatcha but not by massive amounts.
