That being said , i kinda think that nutaku is giving us time to prepare for awakening , otherwise i see no point in this break right after a gold rush.


Regardless of the reasons , i don't care that much , since grinding AFF/unit xp is the same in my eyes as grinding event map for new units. After the first 2-3 runs (usually on the last map , since i rarely grinded lower maps) , i get bored of them anyway. It also gives me time to level up the more niche units and stock resources for future events , so not THAT big of a deal IMO. Still , i can see how people would get bored after a gold rush

Did Cuterie's passive stack? I remember Monica's not stacking, but I'm sure Cuterie did. It would be great since I have two of her.

monica and cuterie belong to the same group of units that give % in drops. Since monica doesn't stack, it makes sense that cuterie doesn't as well. Or i should be raining in aff gifts with my 4 cuteries

According to the wiki, Cuterie's passive is additive. Not 100% sure about this, that's why I asked.

They probably mean addititve to the curent chance (as in ..let's say a 2% base chance >>> cuterie will give 2%+2% instead of 2% + 2% of the base chance - which is 2%)

At least that's how i get it

^probably this. multiple cuterie buffs do NOT stack with each other.

@namho yeah, that's for AW fodder. still, I wouldnt hurry with doing that unless you're dead sure you dont need those silvers anymore. for the time being I'm using some of the better silvers for mincosting purposes since I might need early deploy useful units in some situations.

can't do, most of cc-ed units i have are silver, for important roles in team well i have huge deficit of platinum and gold, no black unit,
just kind of worry if event happens after AW will be harder than before because you guys already have really strong units

don't worry, I have no blacks either, only lilia/Hina from my 1st 10 premium summons (according to lafate SC use guide), and the rest are event plat/golds. basically right now, just focus on maxing the core units that you have, as well as some of the golds you just got from this gold rush, like bernice, julian, conrad, kerry, fedora.

we have at least a 1 week break for now; getting affection items for your core units will likely be the priority, and you'll eventually be able to get silvers from the next few events as well as fairly decent plat units to use. even full cost plat units with lvl 1 skill can be useful, such as Odette for me (I only got 1 copy of her because I joined late). eventually you'll catch up and do decently well.

Oh well, that's a bummer. Thanks for clearing my doubts. I guess I'll use my second Cuterie as AW material.

The only Gold Unit I missed was Barbastroff (may have gotten him if I skipped the Monday dailies), is he stronger than Cyrus or was it okay to skip him?

He is stronger than cyrus, but you probably have plat mages so he isn't really isnt that missed. although would be good to have him for male-only maps I suppose
