Grats for people who got Ayaka, for the others, good luck next time I guess?

This event is okay, I don't need awakening mats so it'll quickly be over, already crafted 25 candies thanks to a rank up.

Daily Yuri, still not doing any more than that!

Looks like overall people had fairly good luck so far, though of course a few that got burned too.

Was close to having enough for another multi so bought the few lapis needed.

Double rainbow!

...

Dark Fina and Fohlen.

That's four off banner five stars.

One five star is greatly beating the odds.

Four and all off banner just ... ugh

My luck has gotten really good apparently. That was the first pull I did.

Nice Shadow you have there. Sick pull grats.

This may not be optimal build but whatever:

I haven't done 10 man trial so no trial staff to use. She is semi potted, nothing is on max. Esper is Lakshmi.
 
I started in with my 8 tickets and got Silvia on my first pull. Holy hell. Figured I should've stopped there, but did the rest anyway. All garbage.

Decided to do 3 multi-pulls.
Lots and lots of the blue banner units, a few really good TM units, and a whole lot of garbage.

Oh well.

Did the event and got the 3 tickets in exchange for the candy.

First ticket.
Rainbow.

Ayaka.

Hot damn!

So, in short, got Ayaka and Silvia in 11 tickets.
Got a whole bunch of crap with 3 mutli-pulls. There's a lesson in there, I think.
 
Gumi leak/hack talk:

With the leak/hack last week, we generally know what to expect from banners for a month or so. We also know that FFXI disappointed Gumi sales wise, and they were expecting the interim orlandeau banner to “catch up their expectations”. I wonder how much that banner actually brought in compared to day today’s new banner...

I mean even if we had not known ayaka was the next week, I feel that running Orlandeau with such a bad banner last week was a mistake. There were ways to “fix” that banner, dump Mercedes for Shine, swap exdeath for Cecil. Banner is now instantly more appealing. But as it was, it just looks like a money grab.

CONGRATULATIONS to everyone on Ayaka!

16 tickets got me 2 kamuis and a silvia

had 12k lapis,

got shit on the first multipull
RAINBOW on the second one... Ended up being Zargabutt lol

Spent money, back to 20k lapis
3rd multipull: 2 kamuis a silvia
4th multi: AYAKA BABY


So, 4 multis and 16 tickets got me a few kamuis and silvias, ayaka and zargabath. Not bad :)

Way better than my nier luck lol
 
Got my share of Yuri...did get Kamui and Silvia too but no Ayaka. After 5 tickets and 3 multis. Oh well.

With fan festa today, thought I'd have better luck!

Two multis, 10 tickets - got a handful of golds but no Sylvia. Will take a break and see if my luck is better later in the week.

Congrats guys! Looks like we got some lucky streaks here. Gumi increasing rainbow rates to bring back players confirmed.

As for me, I used my 12 tickets and did a single 10+1 as I was limiting myself to. Got lots of the samurai and ninja girl, one Goken, and of course 0 of that girl I actually wanted for the TM sword.

Here's my 10+1:


Wee!

I for one am thrilled for my free unit and bottle of water.

Was definitely going to do that myself. Hoping it is worth the trip haha!

Hoping there's at least some schwag and a charging station for phones.
Also, anyone know of any good import/used game shops in the city? It's been a while since I've lived there so I'm not sure what's in or out.

The physical form of blasphemy
2 10+1 pulls (lapis)
11 tickets
1 4* ticket

Pulled Ayaka on the last one. No Silvia. Don't have her max potted, nor have I beaten the 10 man trial.

Back to saving.
 
This was an all or nothing moment for me, 10 multi pulls , 53 regular, two 4* tickets later, and I got nothing. Ayaka and Gumi claimed one, I'm out

Wonder if they'll talk about the compensation they promised we would get latter at the Fan Festa, it's probably more impactful than the normal ones so he has to talk about it with the JP producer.
Anyway, let's hope for a good time for people going there!

Xon/Locke don't affect event currency drops, apparently. I'm running one because I already had a team defined for farming Chamber of Gems and I'm too lazy to switch. But it doesn't do anything.

Everybody posting about Ayaka makes me very hopeful but I know GAF luck /= my luck, so we'll see what happens. I'm not expending all my resources so if I fail, I fail. Congrats to the rest of you lucky SOBs though. Will give it a shot shortly...

Burned 22 tickets including my 4* ticket.
21 regular tickets resulted in no gold but one rainbow>Aileen *new* exciting but not what I wanted to see.
4* ticket to Soleil.

11-pull

Works out to 3 rainbows in 33 units. I know it's not how it works, but there goes my luck for a long time.

Man, I'm going to need cactuars.

47 Summon Tickets and a half-off pull, and not even a single rainbow crystal. I'll keep half-off pulling til the last day of the banner, then go all-in with 10k lapis.

Man, seeing everybody on my FL get Ayaka on the news feed lol. Grats everyone!

Did Gumi boost rainbow rates or something today?

Because most people here seem to be very lucky. Lots of happy stories. I did a single 10+1 and used maybe 8 tickets before I got mine, my GF's account got hers on the first 10+1 pull, and most people here seem to be getting her at much higher frequency than 0.5% probability would suggest.

Maybe they are trying to build back some good will from all the troubles recently.

I did three multis and didn't even get another Kamui, you guys are cursed by some devilish luck. I have a fuck ton of lapis still but I'm done here.

Hopefully FFIV and Halloween banners will be trash so I don't have to spend any lapis nor tickets for a good while.

How did you already get her TM??? O_O
Saved up trust moogles would do it. End of Season 1 story also gives a 100% moogle.

Hopefully they did, because it's likely one of the few things they could do to prevent hemorrhaging/bring back old players. Of course, it's always hard to say since some got lucky plenty of others didn't and small sample sizes and what not.

How awesome would I have to be to clear that PRO stage? My units are pretty damn mushy but if all I need is a good friend unit, I have plenty of you guys.

You are wise man!

Used the four tickets from the event: Golbez, Krile, Ludmille and Yuri...

4 multis 26 tickets 1 10+1 one 4* ex one 4* banner ticket and not a single rainbow. No rainbow on nier, no on ok no on ayaka. Fuck this. No Rainbows in close to 350-400 pulls is just bullshit. I'm now a broken man. Can't blame gumi for my weak willpower. Should have saved everything for Fina...but that's life, lesson learned. I burned my hand way to many times now.

Congrats to everyone who pulled ayaka. I'm out of pulling for the next weeks except the guaranteed 5*.

Will follow this thread and as usual give stupid comments in discord. At least i have Kirito who knows my pain.
