Thread: [Event 32] Crucible of Combat vs The Demon Gluttony (Union Event)

At last, it's time to rumble.

The event starts after tomorrow's maintenance.

So we will get 2 full days of farming potions and seeds before the grinding madness begins again.

Good luck everyone.

Unless they change it, you basically gain all the seeds you use in union events as clear reward.

I have 3k Jewels and I'm wondering (as a Wind main) if it's worth it to wait 'til Huster gets released or should I wait more?

Hastur is available with the 2nd Miracle ticket. SSR Cybele probably isn't, and she appears along with Hraesvelg, the Wind +100% eidolon. So I think the best option is pretty clear.

Hmm? What?

Didn't they nerf the 100% Seed droprate like a couple Union events ago... not even Ultimate gives you a Seed every time now, sigh.

You probably shouldn't run ultimate anymore than you need to for union events. Expert is where you can gain a fair amount of seeds to offset the amount you spend.

Thanks for the heads up.

The eidolons don't get an appearance bonus though, do they?

I'm in a similar position, but it's for an alt that currently has 16k jewels, Gaia, and Titania. The way I see it is a bit like shopping for a computer - there's always something better coming. In this case, rolling for Seth gives you a shot at Seth, Cybele, Hraesvelg and Hastur, but rolling for Cybele only gives you a shot at 3/4 (but with an appearance bonus). And if your rolls are duds, or you get good rolls but for a different element, then you might've been misdirecting your farming.

So I'm a bit tempted to roll for Hastur, knowing that I'll have more jewels when Cybele releases. Is this wrong?

(I've also got a similar dilemma on my main, where I think I should optimally wait for Ashirato, but I don't really want to wait that long.)

The 100% eidolons do have an appearance bonus. I know Belial was boosted in the fire gacha draw they had. I believe Kirin was similarly boosted in some new chars release gacha.

There's no real right or wrong when it comes to rolling, it's all RNG. If you want 1 specific hime more than any other, you should probably save all your jewels for that appearance, to increase your odds. That's really all you can ever do, but there will never be any guarantee.

They do, but their bonus is way smaller than it is for Kamihime. The game started at 5x for those, and moved up to 15x some months ago... ... ... if Nutaku implemented that.

For Eidolons, it's just 2.5x. Which is not little either, considering how much fewer Eidolons there are.

Oh, that does make hoarding an easier decision then. Thanks!
