    As for the tournament, watched the battles of the top 32 players in which EarthCrimson made his Kenshin an offensive one and equipped with a Takenomata Sword to disable the troop regen of the opponent.

    Anyway it's kinda sucks when you are expecting a general that you want even if you had spent 1.5k kobans on the draw 11 tab. Used the kobans on the event that has greater chance of getting UR Kenshin (H) and got 3 SSRs. The 11th one was a SR Niwa Nagahide. It seems like I have a curse or something when it comes to random stuffs haha.
    I don't spend koban directly on summons anymore, as the soul ticket event especially made it far more valuable to spend it on rations and fast battle tickets. Even if 1500 koban is 75 rations and 750 fast battle tickets, that's probably good for about 12-15 soul tickets once you can beat the end boss in one battle. That's a lot more than you expect to get by buying a summon.

    Yeah that is one good point to follow. The first time I encountered that event (The Tiger of Kai and friends army), I have to beat it like 5-7 times just to start the roulette spinning. The second event of the same army (The Vulture Legion), it took me 2-3 times just to get the reward and yes I had spent 100 kobans for the battle tickets in which it was worth it (1 soul ticket, 700-1200 souls, 2 SSR Takeda Shingen aside from the copper/equipment). Now on the Howling event, it took me 1-2 battles in which made think that my army is quite progressing. I just tested and still prioritizing the Halloween dungeon. Maybe I'll farm at Howling Dungeon next week if I see that the next event is not that interesting to farm at.

    What I do is to clear the final five opponents of pumpkin dream first, which takes a little over an hour. The opponents are very weak, so I pull all but one general off my team so that I don't have to wait so long through various skills taking effect. I need Master Strategist for the last three, but then switch to Saitoh Dohsan with a Playful Kaneko Sword equipped so that I can kill them much more quickly while only having to wait for the weapon skill to take effect rather than a whole long list of things. I intermittently read something else while doing this. For example, that's what I'm doing right now as I type this.

    Once I've cleared that part of pumpkin dream, whatever time remaining I'm on the computer for the day, start another battle of the howling pass event if I notice that the previous one has finished. That seems to be good for around 100 clears of it if I'm at work most of the day, or probably more like 300 on weekends. Winning in one round, not just one battle, helps a lot.

    Has anyone noticed a drop in soul tickets in this current event in comparison to the last one, or am I just having really bad luck so far? I have been clearing it as much as last time and instead of getting 8-10 soul ticket drops a day I have only gotten 3. On the other hand the amount of souls seems to be way higher, since I have collected something like 8000 or so a day of souls. I'm only asking because I'm not sure if they cut the rate of the soul ticket drop or my luck has just been skewed this run.

    You get 8-10 soul tickets per day, not counting from souls? Assuming a 1% soul ticket drop rate, that would put you over 500 million points for the event. On my server, that would have been good for about #2 or #3 server-wide. I'm not saying it's impossible, but did you really play the event as much as you're claiming?

    Jeffrey Uy, I saw you at #1 in the daily world boss fairly late in the event. Unfortunately for you, that event pretty heavily favors people who can rack up more score per battle. In order to get above whatever rank threshold you're aiming for, you have to either be able to run up score fast enough that others can't pass you, or make it expensive enough that they won't try.

    For example, let's suppose that you can kill 500k troops per battle and someone else can kill 1 million troops per battle. Let's suppose that within 1 minute left in the event, you have the same score, and there is time for 8 battles left. The person you're competing against knows that he can drop another 8 million points on his score in that minute, while you can only do 4 million. He might decide to do 5 million just so that you can't beat him and stop. If he's 3 million points behind you, he knows that he can catch up. This often leads to the people who can't put points on the board as fast just declining to compete at all.

    In order for you to win, you have to either happen to hit a day when no one capable of running up a score in a hurry cares to, or else be so far ahead that people who look at it decide it's not worth what it would cost to catch you. Had you been #1 by a margin of 30 million points with 5 minutes to go, it's likely that no one decides to challenge you for #1 even if they could, as it's simply too expensive to bother.

    As for no one else caring, I once got #1 with a score of about 20 million. I don't get #1 often, because I don't want to burn a ton of koban on it. Speaking of koban, on days when koban is the reward, a score of 50 million isn't even guaranteed to put you in the top 10.

    People also tend to try to score just above the threshold for a big reward, not just below it. Sometimes #3 gives far better rewards than #2. Sometimes #10 gives far better rewards than #11. When there is such a drop off, you'll see a lot more competition from people trying to get the better reward rather than the lesser one.

    On the bright side, by pushing Aqua-chain, Rimuru, and Neowarden to have to put up more points than they would otherwise have in order to finish in the top 3, you might be primarily responsible for allowing everyone on the server to clear one convoy more than they would have otherwise. Whether you value that or not is up to you.

    Before I speak, Let me first apologize again that I surpass your World Event Ranking. I meant no offense, just liking the reward of Soul. And Thanks for noticing me. Also, I care, when I participated first time on World Event. I notice you, Aargaez and Temp being top 3. That's where I motivated to become stronger like you. But still end up being a weakling. huhuhu

    Tbh, I was enjoying battling with Neowarden. What pissed me off is Rimuru. I'm not sure how he did it so fast. (Aside from using Fast Battle Ticket). Not only that I spent 150 Koban to buy Fast Battle Tickets and still end up 4th. I need more advice on what to do to become better at World Event. (and hoping not to surpass you again *bows).

    I play on the 2nd server, and ended up finishing 5th since 3 people blitzed an insane amount on the last day or 2 after being firmly in 2nd for the entire event until last couple days. But i ended up getting something like 275 soul tickets total last event and close to half came from soul tickets. Can't remember the final tally for points though, i think it was like 415 million or so.

    uhmmm... i found a new item from port. I thought at first it was Platinum Fragment but it says here Artifact Shard. Should I just keep it for that big Diamond?

    Thanks for the tip... Appreciate it. There is one problem, I can't be online the whole time because I am using the android app haha. So I just have to check what to farm at my free time (aside from playing other android games in which I go online just for the dailies).
