Thread: The Alchemist and the Philosopher's Stone guide

4/5 skill, 20 cost when evolved, enough for a character i will barely ever use i'd say...

Armour daily! Capitalism ho!

What kind of waifu collector doesn't give appropriate space to his/her harem?...

You're a horrible collector :<

Being able to keep fodders and silvers so you can get your newly attained waifus up to snuff fast is a great thing and saves you from whining about "no break" because you won't have to use up all those silvers you need later meaning you won't have to grind silvers every event.

Well, I don't have a lot of SC right now. If I do buy, I want to make sure I spend 50 SC in that very month. That way, it knock 2 birds w/ one stone.

Did combined my Colin, mincost her w/ 8 Colins.

Had 12 Colins in total so far

What to do w/ the 3 last copies? I don't really care for maxing out skills and I don't plan to use Colin either.

Not right now, I don't have 50 SC to spend. If I do spend SC to buy space, it has to be 50 in one go.

I do plan to collect Waifus. Right now, I'm a noob who is focusing on developing a team first so I can 3 star maps easily. Starting from July 2016, it has been a challenge to clear maps for me.

Got Colin to +3/-4. Good enough for a niche unit. I can see me using her sometimes as I love my archers and she supports them well in the right conditions. But they tend to shred everything aside from the heaviest armored stuff anyway and thats when I bring in the witches/mage/bishop anyway. Hmmm...

Thats what I did this month. Put a heap into space, a couple of rolls in the premium gacha (Got Gellius - YAY!) and the rest into refills. I normally would stop at 50 and start saving again but Anya/Echidna's revival events demand I burn more.

You misunderstand... waifu collecting requires collecting waifus or else all that extra space is meaningless.
Steps:
1) Gather a solid group of waifus
2) Buy extra space for future waifus
3) Collect said future waifus, expanding the Harem Palace as necessary

Expanding space is only more important than collecting new waifus when you've run out (I use fodder frequently, so I don't run into issues since I unlocked the 1st barracks; half that barracks is filled with "eye candy waifus" that have 100% affection )

ive gotten a total of 9 extra colins (8 more has been used to su 4/5 and cr 1 more colins)
and i have not enough fairy to make a mini platinum armor

better farm for fairies then...

TBH I don't think the Special card should ever really influence your SC expenditure unless you're already very close. I like Rainbow Spirits as much as the next guy but that and a Spirit Queen are the only "big" rewards you get and that's small potatoes compared to the Deluxe or Legend cards. As a free player I'd rather just spend exactly what I need to store fodder efficiently and go back to saving rather than crush my reserve.

Last run since I won't get more stam before 2 AM - my 13th Colin - was hoping for Percis or Valerie. I'll take her

Set up Colin vs Colin for LOLs

Funny thing, she ignored Colin and went after Pallis

Kind of a ho hum event for me. Got a nearly perfect event unit, only missing one point to min cost. Got a few silvers.... but I'm going to have to get the barracks upgrade soon..
