Is it just me or did they increase the # of location failures you need before another spot opens up? For example, in the last one if you failed a location with 3 open spots 2 times you would get 4 open spots on your third try. Now I seem to be getting only 3 open spots on my third try through.

Last elite guard was before they started taking away the temporary consumables to shift balance towards paid players. Even so, EG gives out PLENTY of burgers to stock up. You can also get full puddings and half puddings from silver cases. Silver keys aren't that hard to get. I've had something like 20 of them so far this event as a free player. Granted, not every silver key gives one, but I've gotten them on both the unlocking and receiving ends.

The fact that they brought back glasses was good enough for me, but I'll admit they destroyed the extra stage. It takes a LOT to get through it now.

I'm curious if I'll have to redo stage 100 again. Last time, when you started phase 2, you had to redo stage 100 (for no benefit). Stage 100 was a bitch to clear since it starts off with only 1 correct box. You can drain a full set of stamina just trying to FINALLY get it.

Midway through the event and I have a little less than 6,000 trophies. I'm thinking just save my eGatcha tickets for Elite Guard.

More then Likely they done that on every gambit so far. I often use a set of glasses on it just to knock it out quickly

Ahem, do you know that there is no etter "L" in japanese language, so they replase it with "R" and same goes for "Z/S" in English words quite often?
Riza and Lisa are the same person - it's juts the artist that drawed the sprite was different, i suppose. You can even notice they both have the same doctor coat and both even "hop" when "seduced".

For the event - it sucks just liek the previous one - patr 2 is starting today, i'm sitting in teh Bonus Stage for 2 days now, and still got olny 5k Trophies. Which means no 50k Trophies SR girl in the end and i'll barely end up with 20-25k just like the last time. Good thing this time the reward cards' pictures are below average (at least, for my liking). (i like school swimsuits and green hair and squirting/fingering alot, but the artwork is quite sluggish overall, so i won't regret that much of not getting the card this time - not that much that i regretted the last time - for sure).
As for the cases - Glod ones still drop much worse rewards than Silver ones, so this time i even regret the fact that i can't ward off Lisa to save Focus for Alice, with her silver cases that give me SR girl cards for Daily Missions and precious Pero Glasses and Ryu, that give nice loot form Pink boxes, too.
The Achievement Rewards are total trash this time, so i don't even bother collecting those Trophies that much this time, after i got that Card Reveal fro 5k, the Boss girls are bugged this time, and don't make sweet noises when pies hit them, so the only good thing in this gambit is, probably, the story, that seems to be moderately funny and intriguing this time.
So, the best thing in this gambit is box loot.
For the SR girl rate - i used to get her every day after opening around 5-7 cases, but after i've reached the Bonus Stage, i suddenly had a bad day, having to use 25 keys to get one.
So yeah, i'm completely disappointed the Gambit type of Events from now on.

Part 2 still isn't open. Anyone know when it will start?
