Thread: Problem with event girls

I just got a girl from the Dark Lord but instead of it being Travel Kalissa it was Kimmie. This has happened before I believe with spring break where I got regular Sheheramazond instead of a variant but it didn't bother me really there because it was the same girl. I'm wondering if that is normal. Do the event girls and regular girls have totally different drops or is the event girl supposed to override the regular drops?

I just got travel kalissa from the dark lord, keep trying

I've had this a couple of times not sure if event drops are a separate roll or it rolls 'a girl' then decides which

Hi so event girls are simply added to a pool of drop-able girls from that troll.

You would think that event priority would be a feature that would make sense for them to include (or any number of other differences in how unlocking girls could have been handled). But the way they actually set it up, it's just a matter of beating the (sometimes very harsh) odds to not only get a drop but to also have it happen to choose for your drop to be the event girl as well. Probably a scheme to encourage people to shell out tons of money to just get the drops through epic pachinko spins instead (which is way overpriced to get the guaranteed drop (for a single girl per 10 spins) and may or may not feature event priority (I think it's supposed to, but there have been reports of it not working and just giving out whatever random regularly available girl instead of an event girl)).

* My random thoughts on a potential alternative unlock possibility:
1) include somewhere an inventory where you can see collected boss item drops (the ones needed while going through the story), which will continue to be possible to receive after finishing the chapter
2) make use of the suggested inventory space to also be able to collect event tokens when an event is running (similar frequency as the boss item drops or maybe slightly higher, each different boss participating in the event drops the same event token)
3) add some sort of shop or trade button on each chapter (next to the boss's fight button, I guess) where the chapter's 3 girls and maybe some other extras (random item box (or a ticket for a free great pachinko single spin)? a bit of xp or mojo? a ticket (however expensive) for a free epic pachinko single spin?) can be bought with some number of the boss's special item drop (may require a bunch of them (a matter of weeks worth of farming the boss) to get a single girl, but it's something to work towards if luck isn't giving a girl to you as an instant win, and the extras keep the boss items (somewhat) relevant on a permanent basis)
4) make use of that shop/trade option during events to let us buy event girls (in the appropriate chapters' shops) and the same types of extras using the event tokens (with the event girls hopefully priced fairly reasonable since there's only a couple weeks to get both captured event girls)

A system like that is still tied into a bunch of RNG (which could see people having bad streaks, just the same) but it would give people an alternative option with a measurable amount of progress towards getting regular and event unlocks.

There is a priority for event girls implemented. They are 3x more likely to drop with regards to the other girls. But yeah, priority doesn't mean guaranteed, so sometimes you will get one of the other girls instead.

About the 10x epic pachinko being overprized: for you it maybe is overprized, but if they didn't make a fair amount of money from it, they would've changed it already. So clearly there are enough players to actually buy the kobans for the dev team to say this is the system they will use. Remember that you are getting kobans for free in the game, and that you can actually do a 10x game every 2 to 3 events if you really want to without paying anything.

Off course you can always suggest some changes, but in my eyes the changes you suggested will just transform the game into every other game on nutaku. There are enough of those games out there already.

at op: yes you can get regular girls during events as well. you can either call it bad luck or good luck depending on how the rest of the event unfolds for you. If you happen to get Kalissa as well, you will have 2 girls instead of 1, which is good luck. If you don't get her, then you could call it bad luck. Message is; go on battling Dark Lord and she might eventually drop.

OP here,
Thanks for the info everyone. I mainly just wanted to make sure I wasn't glitching out. I'm glad to know that it was just the luck of the draw. This was the first time I was compelled to ask because I actually wanted the event girl way more than who i got. Once was just a change to Sheheramazond who i heard the original was better anyway, I remember another time I actually just liked the girl I got more than the event girl so I called that a win. I'm still hammering out my battles. At least with Dark Lord I'm covered now and before the event I got Cunegonde, who is very strong and has the sailor moon costume, so I'm not hurting for girls.

Maybe one day someone will crack the code on drop rates and we can all prosper. For now my superstition is to always buff my crit chance and put my corresponding girl to the judge on top. Sometimes I buff whatever the crown stat is but I have now idea what that does.

Ego. It's the amount of health you have in battles and it's determined based on your endurance and (if I'm not mistaken) a bonus based on your current alpha (but not the other two girls).

So... the ginseng and chlorella (huh, I've been reading that as cholera and wondering why they would have called it that, never heard of chlorella before but apparently that word actually means something too) booster items are kind of redundant with each other. They're a little different, but the difference will only matter to players who pick your name to battle against. Your opponents in battle when you select to fight against another player's profile just simply have their ego set equal to their endurance (no bonus from their girls (they don't get the bonus on other battle stats either, basically the system tends to be weighted in your favor unless you come across a player with the best gear and with a ton of in-game cash invested in pumping up their stats)).

Dark Lord is always locked firmly at low level stats (I think all of the bosses are scaled easier than an average player profile?) and should be a pushover regardless of your stats if you're a higher level than him.

The difference between the two buff items (crown and heart ego stat) is mainly that one is applied to the base value and the other to the final value. Not sure which is which anymore though, but the difference isn't really visible under normal conditions.

The battle system is indeed always in your favor, but a lot more than what you seem to think. The bonuses the player gets are good enough to outperform characters with perfect gear and max level girls even when the player is only using store-bought equipment and level 30 girls. Taking myself for example, around a third of my damage and a quarter of my health comes from these bonuses... Epic gear doesn't come close to matching this amount of improvement when compared to rare gear, so people with rare gear can easily win from me if they pick me in the tower (I have almost full epic gear myself, I got all but one part from the contests). I'm not sure if the stats bought in the shop are added to people in the tower either, I think they aren't but I'm not entirely sure. Most of the stats a player gets come from the girls in your team, and that seems to add up more or less to what shows up in the tower and arena...

OP Here with another update for anyone checking out this thread.

The RNG Gods have been good to me this week. I kept at it and got Travel Kalissa yesterday and then Travel Arcana just now.
I'm gonna cross my fingers and keep battling. Maybe I'll have a really hot streak and find more.
