Well, now i see this "game balance" myself...
I had 5 egacha tickets saved (started saving them after the last Gambit) so i used all of them, and got all 3 R SECs (feeling very sorry that i had to choose http://harem-battle.club/wiki/PeroPe...o:Yae-Marikawa over http://harem-battle.club/wiki/PeroPe...o:Nodoka-Otomo because of the bloody Gambit Multiplier (i really like Nodoka and wanted to get her very much since i saw her, and besides, she is SR, while Yae is just an R and looks not so special at all, but meh - had to make my experiment clean) and what did i got? Exactly. No new SR cards at all, no SR SECs, but still, an insane (for me, of course) Kairo multiplier of 5.62! Blargh, this is just stupid. While i only got 3k Kairo during the Phase 1, i now already have 10k by just using up half of my max Stamina, 25 Radars and like 10 Glasses! Welp... that's just "meh". The Gambits seems to be totally unwinnable if you are low-average level f2p without a decent pile of items kept unused for numerous events, but turns nothing should you toss some dosh @ Nutaku... =__=" And if you can and will spend ALOT, like our top players do, then there's even nothing much to compete for left, except the ranking which almost gives you nothing (except, maybe, some useless - for a player of THAT level SR "Guaranteed" Gacha tickets and such) and is, technically, just a "battle of wallets", which, for me, just resembles a bunch of kids playing in a pile of sand, and arguing like "my dad is cooler - he works as a boss in the office - no, MY dad is cooler, he works as a banker!" while showing off their pricy toys to each other... Which, for me, doesn't make much sense or entertainment...
Sure, i am awful as a buisnessman, and sure i understand that "whales" and other cashers will still shower Nutaku and other similiar companies with money, and those companies will still get their profit from these f2p games like that, but for me - these games are just ruined. I'd really perfer if these games just had a subscription fee, but, at least, were balanced well. But... who cares.
So yeah, my only problems are that these games look good enough for me to want to play them until i get to know how they work well enough, are addictive enough so once i start playing them it's quite hard for me to quit, and a need in something like that, that would help me waste my time every day and meet new people with interests similiar to mine...
Well, my goal during this Gambit is to try and get that 1k Ranking reward card (since she is really cute and is totally worth getting - for me, at least) and to check, if i can actually get enough Kairo to get 51k kairo reward card by saving all eGacha tickets that i can get during all other Events and using them all only during Phase 2 of Gambits... If i'll manage to pull that trick, i'll, probably, stay in PPS for a while. If not - well, then "the end is nigh" and i'll do as i've planned - complete the Story Mode (supposedly, two more girls/stages, since the last achievement says "Free 16 girls from the Naked King") and then - quit. Time will tell...

Are people quitting or boycotting the new Gambit? Because I am like 400 ranking and I am never that low, Also I am way behind on location normal I am at about 150 on the 1st day of of 2nd half. I am only on 120. I did not even get to hit extra stage in phase one this time around. Also I am about 8 or 9k behind in Event points then normal are, but and I am 500 Ranks better then I normally am. I also noted in 2nd half at 120 there is only 2 correct answer instead of 3 like in the previous last event looks like they may have made the locations hard in the 2nd half.

They screwed us with this gambit... put in a weird progression on reward points, shortened the event length, and overall fuckuppery... oh well lets hope they put it back to a more sane level next time around...
And due to this fuckuppery people just are not trying that's why you look like you are doing better... you aren't, others are just doing worse...

Think a lot of people can't be arsed this time around. Reaching 50k has always been hard and now we have far less time to actually reach it. So I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of people just didn't bother at all and saved their e-gachas/consumables for the next event.

Gonna have fun myself, used for 4 e-gachas, didn't get a single slayer.... Getting 50k with 1.44 multiplier will be such a joy.

mmm the worst part of event is lenght...too short...well rewards are better ...but in a week you will not feel the differecne. and well dont know down but up is hard so hard...on first week it was well too many peronamis for stay on 500 ranking ...today i decided use my collection of glassess and etc go to 304 with 33k, i think probably at end of event i will be 51k and ranking between 400-600. i couldnt get top 1k in last event so my multiplier is not good.

PD forget say i was 76 on get to floor 200 ...so well floor dont say anything about ranking...is more about luck.

T_T they take away from me the few thing that i could get from gambit ...the sr in silver box, the sr for 200 map, want you waste consumables AGAIN because in last colosseum it was other bulshit
i only going focus in the pink box ¬¬

I've gotten plenty of gold keys from the rolls and as reward for climbing higher. Gotten a fair deal of that SR too from gold boxes, she does not seem rare. Currently at 165, will have to burn some more puddings later i guess.

If you got the 2 girls from the boxes I would keep rest for silver and gold keys for next you might need them more there.

lol, i never was below 1500 during any events, and i always finisher in 1k or even above 500 Rank, (but never got 50k trophies since Gambit 2 or 3) but man, this time i ended Phase 1 below 3k ranking!!! that's just super shtty, i never thought something like that could happen - but it did...

Are we sure they didn't repeat the bug with previous gambit where certain people couldn't get the SR card from the cases? I ask because I've opened or have had opened since part 2 about 12 golden cases and not seen 1 card but I see almost every 4 gold cases from others having the card. Would like to know if anyone else is having problems getting her too.
