1.5x Story and Dailies Drop Rate Boost Discussion Thread

[YoxalLoyal]

Decided to make a separate thread for 1.5x drop rates. And ignore the Story part in this thread's title until we get one in the future. XD How's everyone's farming going?

1st day was pretty...bad for me. 1 valk orb (which I needed) and only 3 black fairies, 1 plat fairy, and 1 rainbow fairy. Could always look forward to Friday for that daily.

Today was a little better. Not running the AW orb daily, so I had some charisma to spare for gifts. Ran Skyfallen Gift X with a non-AW'ed Cuterie and got a ton of purple orbs, 3 rubies, and 1 diamond.

Here's to hoping tomorrow's DC daily will go well. Need lots of them if I'm going to AW my princesses.

Ran 2 times the map for aw orbs yesterday : 2 times perfect drops \o/ (plus sacred crystal for 3 starring the map, didn't do it before...)

[Davion]

4 spirit x runs : 1 plat, 1 black - 2 blacks - 2 blacks - 2 rainbows and 1 black
Today skyfallen G (2 stars with more or less this guide https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=184wCAlDI1o ) First run without 1 diamond, second full drop (ruby is 100% now). One run for orbs - only 2 :P

[Talith]

I could really use that spirit sorting rax right about now. I have maybe 55 gold and black spirits each and no units to spend them on. The black spirits more because I don't have the tin cans to spend on my awoken Deine or Saki.

[seorizuki]

my luck have been pretty good for orb, full orb drop almost on every run. Got enough enough valk orb for Olivier and bishop orb for Marius who i pulled yesterday.
the fairy drop on the other hand, only 1 rainbow drop.

[soranokira]

just hoarding orbs atm. tuesday was not all that great, though I managed 2 valk orbs out of 5 runs i guess. wednesday (today) was pretty good thus far. gotten enough of all orbs pretty much, shouldnt run low on any in the near future. the least orbs I had was soldier, which I got about 4 in 5 runs. aiming to get at least 5 of every orb probably.

Hmmm do I awaken bashira,yuyu (who I don't use often) mehlis or get a spica for the CR and since it's 3xexp and awaken just mehlis or yuyu. I have 2 dupes bashira, yuyu and 1 dupe mehlis

[NotThatGuy]

Well, personally I'd suggest trying to CR Spica, and if you want to take advantage of the 3x XP, awaken Bashira and CR her as well with your mentioned dupes. Yuyu is pretty good as a replacement to Calliope, but isn't super needed if you aren't using her much already, and can likely wait (also needs her cost reduced some to make her viable as a low cost witch). Additionally, while gold units do still get the triple XP, it's not nearly as big a boost as it is for the platinum units, so choosing between Mehlis or Bashira I'd go with Bashira, and I'd pick CRing Spica over prioritizing Mehlis and Yuyu. That said, if you can 3* the G map reliably, today it gives 21 DC per run with its 100% drop rate, so if you aren't adverse to spending a few SC, you can likely get another 100 before the day is done (assuming at least 16 max stamina, you can get 42 DC per SC, not counting potential need to refill charisma, but you get more than twice the needed charisma in the time it takes to regen the stamina naturally).

All these people who are crazed about the whole Spica CRing yet i have never been in a situation where she would have made a difference at less cost.

All these people who are crazed about the whole Spica CRing yet i have never been in a situation where she would have made a difference at less cost.

Probably because she is one of the few units that is insanely easy to CR, just slap two copies onto her and usually the second one can get her to that golden dream.

But yeah, CRing her isn't that much of a big deal enough that it needs the next best thing to a religion on the subject. The only reason why it'd be necessary is if you're dealing with a map where the unit point pool is strained to the point where every unit placed matters *coughDangerintheOasiscough*. But that is never really a problem since UP generators like Katie and the whole band of soldier units with Call Reinforcements exist, and they're usually the first units placed.

Not to mention if some people got lucky with premium rolls at the start and got units up in the black/plat rarity that are decent or supremely efficient for their cost, they usually carry maps at the start and usually let you get away with placing units with high costs.

->Open Spoiler<-

Why no, I'm NOT jealous of you people who got blacks in their first set of rolls early on. Considering I came in before the black rarity tier got flooded with the all-star units, I probably deserve it. Least I got Olivie later on who never failed her skill lv ups.
