Thread: Sacred Sword Princesses

The only new things from the patch that I can see are the new characters and a bunch of gachas containing them. the step up seems too expensive. I did the first two steps, single draws for 300 and 400 and got 2 one star characters. Then its fullprice draws, 5 for 300 and two 10 for 6000 thats guaranteed to contain the new three star character. I guess its a bit better than drawing normally but too expensive for me.

Btw, what is that spiritist summon giving people three star chars that you see messages popping up about every now and then.

I'm not 100% sure but I believe it's when you draw any rainbow draws from gacha. It's pretty funny considering you often won't see your draw/name appear til several minutes later because so many people are being announced one at a time.

Also this on discord if anyone missed it.

Aside from adding new girls, they also nerfed league coin gain from donation. I see no new events they mentioned. Unless they're literally calling new gacha their new event.

Damm, if I knew there was going to be another step up, I wouldn't have wasted my diamonds on other crap.

Holy hell, they utterly ruined Ceilim. I left up the arena and tower battles I was doing before. She was doing 2000 to 7000 damage and now does 1 damage. She isn't even worth having at this point. Leina's knock-back still interrupts attack sequences and did Khalis really need to be more powerful? It's blatantly apparent that this "balance pass" was nothing but Nutaku widening the power gap between FTP and PTW girls.

This isn't actually true. Yes, Ceilim got nerfed pretty hard, but the base problem with her was the fact that she was WAYYYY too strong for a base 1 star character. The reason for this is because she was a base 3 star in the original game. When they reduce her to 1 star for nutaku version, they did not account for her level of power. The result was a super powered 1 star that was very easy to star up. Now she should be closer to the level of other 1 stars, but still does well enough. It's all a matter of gearing characters up.

Leina was also nerfed pretty bad. Mine is doing roughly 40% less damage than yesterday.
Poor Trisha is practically useless now.
Elnora is still dominating high end arena.

Khalis was actually really bad before the patch. Still don't know about after, since Grace still takes her out for me. The issue with Khalis was the reverse for Ceilim. Khalis was a base 1 star in the original game, and then got changed to a 3 star, while her abilities remained at 1 star level.

How to update? Do I need to download the whole thing again?

I don't think you need the "whole" thing. But you do need to re-download the client and then a 20mb or so patch.

"This isn't actually true."? Sounds like it's completely true. "But they had reasons!" For boosting all the three star units? For weakening every units you can get from shops*? Sure, I mean, call it what you will, I'm not wasting gear on Ceilim now that she has the weakest special attack in the game**.

'Slightly lowering' Leina's crit = 40% damage loss? Well that doesn't sound right. Also misses the point that the reason she's broken is that every knock-back interrupts the attack cycle of the opponent. Eg - Elnora should destroy Leina by typing, but Leina is hilariously effective against Elnora because she prevents her from ever getting off her five round burst. Same with Emily's fire shield.

Khalis's main problem is that anything that gets in close doesn't get hit by her wardbreaker. Also she's more geared towards taking down big targets or groups than single targets. Her extra attack is a burst of five shots like Elnora, but in a spread instead of a stream. If her basic attack pierced like her soul attack she'd be a monster, but still mechanically worse for arena combat than Elnora. You can't address that kind of mechanical advantage by shoving damage numbers around unless you're doing it specifically for arena.

* Except Emily and Meryl, who didn't get stronger and who no one cares about anyway.
**Except possibly Feita, who might actually be bugged. I know Feita's soul attack is some kind of broke.

Old girls nerfed to the ground, new gacha girls released. Coincidence? Dev already started to confuse me.

After a rebalance patch many things become different so i need another advice what girls to improve. I guess that i must choose 1-2 from each element, not any more, but i don't know who shall be needed at high levels?
So what do i've got:
//Water :Sasha, **Naladia, Feita - need to chooce between 2 mages
//Fire - Meryl, Emily
//Wind - my primal element, just like in kamihime : Khalis, Leyna, Rigg.
//Earth : Trisha***, Chharodi, Dora, Ceilim. Now i'm leveling Trisha because she is already ***, but i doubt that she will good later and do i need someone else.
Leyna was my main but she got a huge nerf, so i don't know what to do. Thrisha and Ceilim got their nerf too (but Thrisha was not that strong before).
Khalis was buffed, but not very much as i see, maybe i'm wrong.
I Need at least 1 girl from each element, at least 1 melee/archer/mage.
So i need community help to choose between them, maybe some my thoughts are wrong.

Priority has not changed. Focus the girls you can rank up first.
