Well then. I had the time to do my manuals today. But first, let me post my AAB damage numbers. Left is the first event (the same one as we have now), and on the right are what I got this time around.

Water: 24.8m -> 43m (Andromeda)
Wind: 28m -> 35m (Andromeda)
Fire: 21m -> 32m (Andromeda)
Dark: 29m -> 46m (Hercules)
Thunder: 46m -> 52m (Hercules)
Light: 15m -> 32m (Andromeda)

Ho.
Ly.
Shit.

The powercreep is real. Note that in the previous event, all of those were probably Hercules. But my go-to teams for all elements are very much Andromeda now, since that's just what gets you through Rags and Guardians if you don't happen to get whale carries.

All the elements got significant Grid updates in the past months, which explains most of the increases. But also some key Hime have made a huge difference. Water almost doubled in score thanks to Leviathan, Dark thanks to Anubis. My Light was absolutely nothing last event, but now I'm only Lugh/Iris away from having a very strong (though far from ideal) team.

And then manuals:

Water: 39.2m -> 91.6m (Shingen(EI)-Vohu-Shiva-Cthulhu-Lakshimi)
Wind: 45.8m -> 67.7m (Shingen(EI)-Cu-Azazel-Cybele-Hastur)
Fire: 51m -> 66m (Shingen(SS)-Uriel-Svarog-Mars-Mammon)
Dark: 38m -> 65.4m (Hercules(SS)-Thanatos-Susanoo-Cherno-Osiris)
Thunder: 63.7m -> 74.8m (Shingen(EI)-Marduk-Baal-Raiko-Nuwa)
Light: 0m -> 52m (Shingen(EI)-Tish-Artemis-Sol-Tsuku)

Notice that all of these were once-and-done. Like my Water lost ~1.5m damage since I thought I was on turn14 and didn't use Shiva nukes due to upcoming buffs, but nope, fight ended. If I were to minmax, Thunder could easily have gotten 80m+, but I fucked up with SSR Baal and basically fought with -20% Def for the last four turns. Not to mention that I was leaving out Hime like Perkele and/or Tyr who certainly could burst for far higher.

For my Water team Earring Saraswati came to replace Lakshimi as soon as she killed herself, worked perfectly without even slowing down the FB cycle. Probably should've ran Saraswati from the start - I've said it before and I'll say it again, Vohu-Saraswati synergy is no joke. Vohu was slowing down my FBs after the first one, since her guaranteed triple skill has such an insane CD.

Overall, I did way better than what I expected. Still, I doubt that I'll get anywhere on the score lists - this event is very much a matter of "Hey, who has Managarmr and Michael?" of which I have neither, so hey.

I think those rewards are still the same as ever? To get 15k Medals in a single event, you need to hit top500. That's 13k awards and 2k from rewards.

You'll just have to sit on those 13k Medals for the next two years, waiting for the top players to quit...
