Thread: Sacred Sword Princesses

Ah right, thanks Kotono.

Did a a few trial runs to test rerolls after my main account didn't get the 3* I wanted out of the 3 (Got the healer girl instead of Isabelle), and I think the best strategy is simply skip through the story as quickly as possible until you get to the gacha, and then use your discount 2 pulls in step up to try and get a 3*. Rinse and repeat. Takes only a few minutes and you have a guaranteed 600 diamonds for pulls from the matching minigame on the startup screen.

Ran into a concern on my first run through, and that was shards for 2*+ rarity character evolutions.

Is this going to be one of those games that has a new server like every week? Common among Chinese browser games and a real good way at killing the community.

I'd have to argue there's no community in these games to be worried about killing.

Because this type of game is pretty much entirely a "power race", new players are completely boned if they don't keep coming out with new servers for 'em where they stand a fighting chance.

Unless the mobile version changed from when I last played it (and maybe it did. It's been like, a year), they seem to have streamlined a few things and got rid of some of the particularly stupid cash shop mechanics. Like that utterly infuriating one where you couldn't de-equip an item from a character without an equipment oil.

Funny thing is, the equipment oil is still mentioned in the tutorial for this game. It just no longer is needed and no longer exists as far as I know (thank goodness)

There is no power race anywhere is the game, unlike pocket fantasy. The only "power race" is the arena (it's a bit logical) and it's 100% avoidable if you don't like it. No exclusive character or whatever.

But yeah, I like the current version a lot. Both the chinese version and the Japanese one had things which made me worry (The fact max stars were different depending of the starting star of character in chinese version, the fact you had no free draw in japanese one), but the Nutaku version is curiously really, really fair on that.

Anyway, pro tips: Don't waste time on reroll, the current 3* will be quickly outclassed by the 1*. By the way, don't waste too much ressources on 2* either. 3* are good for the first months, but Trisha, Naladia and Elnora will be everyone core for a long time.

Oh, so the 1* characters do go up to 7* in this version? Wasn't sure if they'd stop being able to evolve at 5, and you'd just be sitting there with an ugly 2 empty stars forever.

On your 2nd point, would you mind expanding on 2-3*s being quickly outclassed? Does this mean that my suspicion about shards for 2*+ characters only coming from what seems to be gacha is true? If that's the case, is there even a damned point to pulling? You'd need an unholy amount of dupes, and good luck getting multiple copies of a 3*. I just hope event characters make up for the gacha being useless, if that's the case. Shame though, the 2-3* characters have better designs and art than the 1*s, as expected.

I hit the lvl cap on my oh my characters and i need 30 essences and stuff like that. Is there a faster way ro get them beside doing a daily every 11 hours to get them.

You are completly right and that's exactly why 1* will quickly crush 2* and 3*. You need premium gacha for 2*+ shards. And the stats are not lower (or in a very minor way, which will be quickly forgotten when you will have 1 or 2 more stars).

You get also 1* shards from friend and basic gacha, and among them, you get Trisha, Naladia and Elnora shards while farming the hard mode (there is a 4rd farmable character as well, but she is earth/archer, which is a doublon with Trisha being earth and Elnora being an archer).

Trisha, especially, is a 3* for free (since you get enough shards just by login during the first week) with a 3* special weapon (from the login and another achievement). So she is 2345345353% worth it to farm.

Tomorrow (3rd day), she will be 3*; I have already farmed 30 shards.


However, an exception can be made for Claire (3*). She heals, and it's rare. So, you may want her in arena and/or in tower of trial.


As for pulling, I will spend my first 6K diamonds into the equipment gacha. With a little luck, I will get a pair of wings. After that, yeah, I will pull the premium gacha, just for the sake of collection.

Are the chests in cleansing worth spending 20 diamonds to open?
