I was wondering why we had a retreat button

then I realise it's useful to throw away normal raid bosses during raid boss events

Just hit retreat

I wish people would throw away those seedy seeds instead of cluttering with 40 of them during a raid boss event.

So do peeps here think it is better to use the FGs for Stamina regen/material/Whale runs instead of hoarding for an 11 pull? Saw comment on this and how most of the pulls would just be vender trash anyway.

I'm guessing it depends on two factors:

1: Do you have a team of twenty characters in your squad that you like? (And mostly 5* or 6*?)

2: Are you willing to pay any 'real money' whatsoever (even if only a limited amount compared to the true 'whales') for one-time gachas or daily deals that guarantee you 5* or 6*s?

If the answer to both those questions is "Yes" I can definitely see the logic behind preferring FGs for anything but 11-pulls as you're relying on other sources to get the characters you want for your team, and your team's already strong enough without needing extra characters to fill out your ranks.

Well I haven't spent a dime on the game and would like some new 5 ranks and know that getting a 6 is nigh impossible without money. I have plenty of characters from the events that still need development so I guess I can fall back on the 5 ranks.

BTW, I glanced at youtube and saw a supposed guaranteed way to get a 6rank from the free gacha by this method

1.Don't do the daily free pull
2.Take the team through a map run
3.Spend 5 fgs on the premium 1 pull
4.Do free pull a

Well, I envy your financial responsibility.

However, if you're not going to spend real money in the game, I'd strongly recommend you continue to do 11-pulls, at least until you get more solid 5*s. You'll have bad luck with some of them, even most of them, but you have no other way to even have a chance of getting new quality 5* or even 6* girls on your squad.

I've probably went through about a dozen premium 11-rolls with the awful 5* and 6* odds (a few of them I purchased, most of them just through collecting FGs) since I joined and I have gotten two 6*s and at least ten 5*s that way. It's tempting to get down on the 11-rolls when you get unlucky, but it's worth noting that the odds are objectively over 50% with every 11-roll that you'll get at least one 5*. In other words, based simply on the numbers an 11-roll will more likely than not (not always, but probably) give you at least one 5* character that will probably be considerably better than the 'free' 5*s you'll earn through events.

And I'd say that's worth more than stamina rejuvenation if that's the only way you can potentially collect more quality 5* and 6* girls.

As much as I prefer saving my FGs for stamina, I can't argue the points you've made (but I'll try!); if you don't want to pay any money at all into the game then without the FG gachas, you will hit a brick wall with just event 5*s...but not as soon as one might think.

A good number of event 5* have decent stats and abilities, and since they are pretty easy to get to 5/5 will definitely outperform most, if not all, non-event 5* who are sitting at 1/1. I'm not sure that a group of 5/5 fully ampied event girls could take on later whaleship missions, but they will definitely get you through all other current content.

But, until you build up a good stable of event girls (don't forget the reissues!), I would probably still argue that FGs are better for stam to allow you to run reissue maps alongside current events. It definitely isn't exciting, but I think would get you the most bang for your FG. Right now, there are 20 permanent-reissued girls to get, one reissued girl and of course, the current event girl. That's more than enough to get you a team of full 5* units with enough variety of abilities and attack types (at least 5 of each attack type).

Consider that, if that method in any way actually worked:
1) people here would never complain about gacha pulls since they wouldn't have a need to do them, and
2) the FKG dev team wouldn't make a dime since no one would pay for premium pulls or even guaranteed tickets.

->Open Spoiler<-

To be perfectly clear, that method you saw doesn't work and if it -ever- did, didn't work for very long.

I wish more people would do this for non-event RBs. That said, it looks like the RB list is now sorted with event RBs always at the top.
