Thanks, this was my first time trying to pull a new character and couldn't decide on the banner/ Got her after finishing the 4 step banner with 17K vis to spare.
Something about the 2K paid banner for a 120 old Halloween unit of your choice: indeed the units are not so great right now however it's potentially 2K paid for a lot of halloween shards to either reincarnate a favorite or use for the new Alaya. As an example i have 214 HLucio shards, if i get him i will obtain 214 shards for 2k, a really good deal compared to the usual offers.
would love to roll for Exia but spent quite a bit of free vis on acquiring Sadali, his VC and the Mana VCs. luck wise, I'm pretty grateful, I might try and chance for her VC but the winter/Christmas unit and FFT is looking to be my target(s).
the 4 step is a trap. not sure if you noticed but you have VC's mixed into the RNG pool vs the direct banner. you're cutting your chances to land the unit by half of what's already an abysmal rate
I thought the same thing a little while ago but the odds are actually the same. The regular unit banner although is 100% units, have higher drop rates than the Vision Card one. But the rate to pull your on-banner unit is exactly the same. Unequivocally, 100%, absolutely the same, on either banner. .4%. Its not a trap its always been like that.
@@ReadyPlayerWillFor standard pool units I think the regular banner is better; the 25% rate up every 60th pull is huge if you value getting the unit more than the shards and mindspheres. 25% chance on a 100 cost unit is big.
@@lpn6530 I’m a minnow (only so $1 daily buys) so getting the unit is way more valuable than any shards, I can farm those. Doing the regular banner first is more economical; you can start with the 300 paid pull to shave some free Vis cost then do some bonus runs on the standard before switching to the four step to reach coin pity. If you start with the 4 step and have to finish on the standard banner you won’t have as many chances at the 25% rate before you hit coin pity. 25% rate up is massive compared to the usual rate for 100 costs
@@lpn6530 you’re forgoing a 25% boost (normally only .4%, less than half a percent) for something that can be bought in the shop for 2000vis. Not to mention, you pick up more blue stars on the main banner than the vc -mixed trap banner
@@ReadyPlayerWill Okay, I think I'll still go for it then. I've always wanted it. Speaking of, can you describe how these cards work? Take Nightmare Before Halloween for example. It's a 3 hit that on say, Dark Fina, caps at like 113,000 damage for me, whereas on another unit it will cap at 87,000 no matter how big the chain is.
i got Hlucio for CMs for 2k paid.. got the pack H..and i luck out H.alaya step 4... then i went for the old VCs i need the multi hit VC skill for gbosses..and got the old leela H. VC along the way.. now im on hold until we get news on a halloween Holo....fingers crossed for redmage spear mace... great stuff RPW.... happy pulls
Really missing the Haroki gifts like we used to get. Running out of skip tickets and gil at this point makes the game an akward balance between buying all the shards for different characters or makiing enough over the weekend just to level a character up a bit.
Always glad to see your videos Will
@vonastra5506 happy to make them :) hope they still have some value!

@@vorpalrabbit4084I guess but 80 shards and 80 mindspheres is a lot… too good to pass imo.

Very Good video Will very good information and love the pulls
What's your opinion on the broom mace?? Yay or nay on the farm???
definitly must get weapon... only way she can get heals
Man trying to save my paid vis to jyst buy garoussa whens he coming i wonder
Is triple kick really not worth it anymore for pve modes? Salire's vision card has done wonders for me in guild raid.
@@janfeae ohh yeah, Exorcists is still amazing for Triple Kick, good callout

We got Hiroki gifts today though, they're basically the same as they always gave
