Thread: Today i rolled...

Some people are simply unlucky, some are not. That's really all there is to it. I do spend a bit albeit the main part of my spending goes into 1.5x events to bloody get fairies and fodder to level stuff.

I mean, with 20 summons when i started DMM i got 4 blacks, that's just how it is. Many times when i have just noticed "oh i have 20SC, let's roll" i have gotten a black. Most of those times i spent nothing at all.

It really is in how you see things. You see people with 4+ blacks and think they must be whales. I see people who say they've spent 800SC without a black and think "How's that even possible? I'd have gotten like 10 blacks with that."

To give you some perspective on some of my rolls:

-As said, my first 20 summons on DMM yielded me 4 blacks. There was no money involved.

-I had 20 SC and decided to go for Leda when she came out, i got Esther instead. There was no money involved. This and a few others led sora to start joking that i have a 25% chance to get a black.

-I haven't spent any money on DMM since the start of the year, i have still gotten some blacks.

-When Kibahime and Lapis came out on DMM. I had 20SC and there were 2 new blacks i REALLY wanted! I bought a whole 150SC! I ended up getting both within 4 rolls. Yes, i would have gotten them both with just the 20 free SC i had -_- Later at different times i used those remaining SCs and got 2-3 blacks i believe.

That's just some examples for times when i did not actually spend anything. Currently i have placed an oath to not spend on DMM again unless a character with my irl name appears. At that point i shall whale til i get it. Unless it is an event unit, obviously.

I tend to spend quite a bit on nutaku when the 1.5x events come up. Depending on how much SC i have i will buy so i get to the 150SC limit for that month, use most of the stuff on dailies and the usually 30-50SC to roll. Tends to score me a black. That's about my usual spending. I don't spend every month though. There are units i will spend for, however, like Kayou. And if i am low because i just rolled and a collection event shows up i will spend to get enough SC to mincost the unit.

Several years back ive played roulette actively for ~1year,, for a number to drop there its 2,7% lil bit less than 3% like black here but not that much apart and in all that time i seen number to not drop in 300+ rolls in a row,, or to drop one number 4times in a row rng is just a luck either u hit it or dont,, but as luck goes that something we can whine about =))

this game is f.. kiddin me.. rolled few more now,, got 2plats and one black,, buut that black was 2nd esther, tho i have only 3 gacha blacks and one plat was 2nd sherry..

uzume and gellius are rather good plats , but still....250 scs.... Its better to go for 150 at a time , and get a plat ticket.

With 250 , you could have easily raised another 50 , and go 150 this month , and 150 next month and get 2 other plat tickets


edit : sorry to hear that iggzikof. honestly you should never try to roll after reading 1 of tenhou's post because she has insane luck compared to the rest of us and might make you feel that it's possible to get better , when its not. I've done that mistake some time ago and i wasted 150 scs and got just 2 plats , 1 of it being daisy which is trash and the other being tethis which i already had ... like 2 or 3 of her already.

I may have gotten 9 plats with those 250 sc though your plats are more worth than all the 9 combined that i got xD at least for me

same happened to me with grace, only had 2 shrine blacks and the third i got was a dupe (grace).

Rolled 210...got two plats (one dupe Cynthia, the other Flamel - yaay, me likes!), no blacks. Seriously?
This game makes me feel, dunno..the more I play the more it punishes me in rolls.

I rolled Anelia and Altia today. Anelia I think could be pretty useful seeing as I've not yet rolled a Princess, and her multi-attack while her skill is active is pretty neat. Not sure about Altia yet, although from the way the wiki further outlines her skill she could be a really good unit to have when or if you need to perform some really rapid fire deployment. Not to mention the boost to my Soldiers, should allow them to take a few more hits.

I also managed to land a Zenobia during that same roll with Call Reinforcements III, and Salia made it onto my team just for her skill alone.

Zola and Katina were a nice icing on the cake to finish off my rolls.

I got Altia back when she was introduced thanks to my then platinum ticket. My advice is to get her skill to 5/5 while she's still lvl 1, then use her before CC as a quick UP generator.
When you CC her, her cost goes up by 3 which does hurt UP generation a bit, but once awakened, she does hit quite hard. I'd advise against SAWing her yet, since her continuous UP generation will slow even further, and the "drop, activate, withdraw" only nets you a handful of UP. When her SAW is patched though to what DMM currently has, she does become an excellent UP generator.

i myself have anelia and have her maxed. I personally love her and found her very useful on subjugations maps , but considering your other drops , she might not be your first priority.


Still , solid unit overall

Yea I have her in my team mainly because I don't have a Princess yet. I mean, I do have other sources of magical damage, but her range allows for some good damage against armored enemies before they get too close to potentially be a threat.
