I might spend on it again. I'll have entered saving mode by then, but that rate really does sicken me if we're being honest. We'll see if either being disciplined or being vindictive wins out in the end. I feel like a shmuck for losing out on all these great banners (wanted Dorcas, Wanted Nagi, wanted B!Lucina, Mythic banner has some winners on it) just to have effectively wasted all my orbs on nothing. Even a pitiful dancing Berkut would make it worth it. Good luck with that! So I collected some monthly orbs, arena and VG rewards to break my 4.75%+ rate with: Spoiler Bangggggg! +SPD/-HP even, that's awesome! I really didn't plan to spend that many orbs, these were some weeks of pain. At least most of the units I got are useful: Hilda (new), Reinhardt (new), Yarne (new, big fun!), Lene (dupe), Owain ( 3rd? dupe), A!Camilla (new, but not very useful) and my newest addition (see spoiler).

Yeah, in the end it looks really lucky, but the part were I only got Owain and Lene at high rates was really frustrating. Wish I knew by then I would have an happy ending.

EricaofRenais Posted October 1, 2019 Share Posted October 1, 2019 (edited) Well I finally pulled Nagi with the help of VG+some monthly orbs. +spd,-hp so I am happy and I already love her. I am hoping Halloween is a skip for me, but knowing my luck they will put Elffin on it since I will be low on orbs. Now I am in save mode (hopefully).

Etrurian emperor Posted October 2, 2019 Share Posted October 2, 2019 Finally pulled myself a dancer Ishtar. Neat! With that my orbs can rest again till Halloween. She was easily the star of the banner so I'm happy having pulled her. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fire Emblem Fan Posted October 2, 2019 Share Posted October 2, 2019 I finally got Dancer Nephenee. Did a "why the heck not" summon, and BOOM there she was! With +Spd/-Def, to boot! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NSSKG151 Posted October 3, 2019 Share Posted October 3, 2019 Felt tempted to pull on the Archanea banner to get a merge for Nagi to remove that Res bane. Spent around 75 orbs and got another Nagi so that bane is gone now but now Phina and Sirius tempt me. Can't try summoning them for now since Farfetched is so close.

Xenomata Posted October 3, 2019 Share Posted October 3, 2019 A few days ago, I pulled Sirius +Res -Spd, which... well, 47 spd when alone and with Lull Atk/Spd active is still good... I guess... if I have to live with it... But just now... the lucky maiden must have swooned a few times my direction, because I pulled Sirius +Def -Atk, which can be Merged out and is still better than Res. ...also Neutral Nagi. Could ask for better, not gonna because flat average is still better than +Spd -Atk on her and I'm okay with this anyway. Counting on Norne being demoted because she will be, still don't have Ban-Ban... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chrom-ulent Posted October 3, 2019 Share Posted October 3, 2019 Alt is throwing orbs at the Chosen Ones trying to get a 5-star, any 5-star. Nope, nothing but 3-star Fates stuff. I haven't even finished one route of Fates and this is already making me want to keep it on the back burner due to being soured on the characters.

Usana Posted October 3, 2019 Share Posted October 3, 2019 Well I am throwing in the towel on this mythic banner. Probably should have done so sooner, but I wanted to break the pity I was building up. I was hoping to net a Thrasir to join Duma on defense. It would free up my Cav Veronica to join my cav line, since she is the one I would most likely remove to make room. instead I got two Spring Veronica's and a Yune. I guess a merge on Yune will reduce the amount lost whenever the cav team fails. But that reduction amount(for a single merge) is rather insignificant so I would rather gotten Thrasir.

With +Spd/-Def, to boot! ALL RIGHT! When she shows up on legendary i am hoping to get more of her. (Theoretically. for spd tactic -actually, just to make her more scary. mine is Neutral, so if i can get more Nephys with an ideal nature i can have her pull double duty :D)- as it is now, i'd like to pull some NY Fjorms and make her into a Chill Bot 1 hour ago, Usana said: Well I am throwing in the towel on this mythic banner.

BoaFerox Posted October 3, 2019 Share Posted October 3, 2019 Got my first 3-star Bantu today. +Spd -Def, not that nice, but at least he was something new in a full batch of 3-stars.

Even if his special art is kind of cool, his portrait art is all the reason to not give him a banner. ^^ 27 minutes ago, BoaFerox said: Congrats!

I spent over 250 orbs without getting a 5-star on that banner, got pitybroken by Female Byleth at about 6%... Luckily Ishtar came right after, (+Atk -HP as well), and Byleth isn't bad either. Now all my orbs are going towards another Tana merge, which hopefully shows up before Sunday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I arrived to 5% a couple of times, but never to 6 on this banner. Luckily a happy end for both of us. Good luck getting a lot of Tanas!

SuperNova125 Posted October 3, 2019 Share Posted October 3, 2019 9.50 and no 5* yet, will try and get one and stop pulling and wait for the Halloween banner. I am pulling for green and red (green for a defensive mythic and red for Eliwood or DC). Honestly, I need something good as an Eirika merge is underwhelming considering the other options.

You really start hoping for a session with multiple 5-stars when the rate gets that high, even if the odds of that are still rather low. (High five for same Ishtar *smack*!)

I am so nervous about this halloween banner (Mia's) because i need 2 copies. i don't have qualms foddering off only copies but i'd really like a Mia for myself. but i got boned so hard going for her. i just really hope i can get in, get out and just go into major hoard mode. yah! (*smack*) I'd really like to snag a berkut, but just can't right now so hopefully i can get him on the legendary when he shows up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I worked really hard to get Halloween Mia last year, wouldn't mind getting another but with Dozla and L'Arachel being on this year's banner I doubt I'll have the orbs to even try. One of my personal goals is to have every Sacred Stones unit, so those two are going to be my main focus this month I guess. And Tana, until Sunday. I'd like to snag Nephenee myself, but just as you I can't right now so I'll also hold on to hope for the Legendary banners. Hope we both get them eventually!

Vicious Sal Posted October 4, 2019 Share Posted October 4, 2019 I wanted more Yune and Eir, sadly my latest two 5 stars were S!Veronica and Genny. Both are fine, since they’re 6k feather and some flowers with nice fodder. I don’t need more of them though, So I won’t risk it. Yune in january, i need to fix that Res bane. so this banner gave me Thrasir, 2xCorrin, S!Vero and P!Genny. Not the best, but some decent fodder and a useful anima mythic. So all in all it is not that bad. More Yune and Eir would have been better, but that’s Gacha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SockPuppet Posted October 5, 2019 Share Posted October 5, 2019 I've spent probably 100 orbs trying to get Innes... at 5.6% I got my second Fallen Male Robin, -Spd/+Def; afterward, I got my rate to like 4.6% and got my first Fallen Female Corrin -Spd/+Def as well. Great... lol. I guess I'll try as much as I can 😞 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheSilentChloey Posted October 5, 2019 Share Posted October 5, 2019 I feel I need to vent. So I gave the Performing Arts banner a go. Over 100 dollars later and all I have to show for it is a -Atk Fanlivia. Not only is that her WORST IV possible but I got almost up to well over 6% for a subpar unit that I now have to work out what the fuck to do with. Oh and Lugh decided to make his presence known from the banner with Nagi on it. Guess I am having a shit run of luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
