I thought Red Blast was strange too, but it's written in katakana, so while strange, I don't think it's in error.

SO IT IS!! I'm レド with embarrassment. That'll teach me to pull out the weeb card.
That being said it sorta makes me even more curious since red the colour is usually レッド, so I really wonder what they were going for. If it was spanish for some reason that would mean network so that can't be it... MMMMMH.

Today's pull was Dark Angel Olivia which I once found cool but with several dark summons above 40%ATK increase after some farming I guess I don't really see the appeal anymore.
Wind Metera also showed up but while I'm happy to increase my character collection I already have amazing wind characters up the wazoo.

I feel like the naming has more to do with her character personality than the cold / ice theme, since she's kinda deceivingly temperamental / likes "hot" thing despite being a slow talking ice queen.

True, from the event and her fate episodes it would seem she wouldn't think twice running you through with several ice spears if you spilled her drink.

Granblue actually has a ton of katakana that just seems off to me, of course now that I say that I can't think of anything off the top of my head, but that's definitely not the only time where the Japanese text seems to phoneticize foreign words differently.

All of the talk about the summon rate increase makes me think it might be better to wait until the end-of-August LegFes before I spark Zooey, but there's no guarantee she'll still be there (they could swap her out). I was using the free multi-pulls right now towards the spark, but I have something like 5k worth of crystals I can farm from Fate episodes, as well as story content to complete. That, along with daily rewards, should allow me to spark at the end of August, I'm just worried that Zooey won't be there. I'd hate to have waited a year (probably more, I don't even know anymore) to spark her, and then have her suddenly unavailable.

Still, the rate increase on unticketable summons would be nice, but even then we don't know how substantial it'll be. It could only be a 1% increase for all we know.

2 Silver Moons and 1 Bronze moon with my free crystals.

The search to get a single SSR (now up to 5 10-pulls) this week continues!

zoey might be there next month but my friend guesses she will be there but not a banner character, meaning you can get her in a random pull, but won't be a spark choice

Summons IMO are more valuable than characters, id just feel so wrong ticketing a summon, but after/since I have all my husbandos, my only other place for stat increase is summons.

I still have waifu to collect, hence my dilemma, haha. >_<

Thanks, I might just go ahead with it anyway as I'd rather not take the risk of her not being spark-able. If she isn't, I could always wait until she is again, but who knows how long that might take...

Did they ever say how much the increase to the summons would be? Not sure they'll make it the standard 3% (6% during LegFes) anyway, so there's no telling how much easier it'll be even if I do wait.

Got summer Charlotta and a characterless SR today. I see the pattern, Cygames! One day I'll get a SSR from these!

Todays 10 pull nets me an SSR Petra

From having absolute garbage wind team of just Metera and Feena when I went on hiatus, to having a solid wind team with Korwa, Petra, Feena thanks to the free 10 pulls. Also helps having Anat and Quetzacoatl too.

Hell...just pulling Korwa gives me a ton of options. I wonder how she fares with my Dark duo of Vira and Narumaya.

aaah... aaahh.... AAAAAAAAAAAAAH !!!!!!
this is possibly the best collab they could have ever announced from my perspective.

Didn't get anything interesting from the daily 10-pull but the stream gifts were easily worth a good pull and more besides.

At the point where I'm considering spending money just for skins, which is oh so bad... Want fundoshi eugen, MC fighter rework, MC swimsuits... why do they have to bundle this with MERCH please just sell it to me in game I'll buy damnit

it's not about the 3% to 6% that legfest gives (I think?)

I think it's 3% ssr, but if you get a SSR, the chance of it being a primal summon will be higher. currently like 0.018% chance probably will be upped to 0.037% chance or something lol

Haha, yeah. You're probably right. They probably won't be super-common or anything, but I guess any increase helps.

Anyway, I think I've decided to wait. If Summer Zooey isn't available at the end of August/beginning of September LegFes I guess that's all I can do, but if she is then she'll likely be with a bunch of other Summer characters who I really want, as well as maybe one or two that haven't been announced yet. I'm hoping she's still spark-able, as I'd hate to wait even longer until she's added, but I feel if I'm going to do 300 pulls, it's probably better to do it at a time when rates for the LegFes summons are increased. Those summons can be pretty important, after all.

Definitely difficult holding my finger back from summoning, though. It's got a very nasty itch to do so.

solo coop will be a godsend because finding a room/hosting a room is a nightmare.
I'll be able to farm rupies/class mats etc at my own pace without inconveniencing anyone and that will. be. amazing.

I don't like that they are making coop work solo, it will make much harder to leech others or to find help. I hope that they at least add the "Train" mode they added to coop raids so there is incentive to people to open their rooms as a way to share the cost. I think that they said that they will add search so at least it will be easier to find rooms for grinding specific materials.

-> Finishes building fire magna grid, about to transition to AES.
-> Pulls Agni.

It's going to take a while before I manage to uncap him, but I should start working on primal fire.

Edit: Aaaand I just got an AES drop - game is trolling me now.

I'm happy I got Drang, he's my first limited series character ever, but I'm pissed his fate is locked behind story content I have no chance of clearing at present.

The 16mil Celebration has been very, very good to me.
Especially today.

I did do two 10 pulls as well as the freebies because I'm weak, but that makes my "haul" for this event:

  • SSR Summer Izmir (x2), Summer Vira, Eugen, Ferry, Melleau, Societte (F) (and a Vortex Dragon)
  • SR Summer Ayer, Summer Charlotta
  • R Summer Lowain, Camieux, Cordelia
To say I'm chuffed would be an understatement, but I've got no idea where to start with leveling them all and team building.

Before my teams were sort of decided for me by what I had - Anthuria/Yuel/Percy for fire, Ayer/Razia/Jamil for earth, Kat/Charlotta/SR-Vane for Water (Silva was backline, I'm still leveling her). Now I have actual options. It's a little scary.

It's also the first time I've been able to play the game with actual sound as my old phone couldn't handle anything but the minimal resolution and animation options and they disabled it. I now realise how much I've been missing out on. The voice acting is actually really good (though Vyrn sounds nothing like how I expected), and I was really digging the music during the Sea Urkin fight. Shame it's over so fast.
