| Welp! I quit.
I was traveling last night and missed out on the last 12 hours of the event, during which I fell from #170-ish to #225 in BT points (which I fully expected) and #112 to #210 in battles (which is nigh-impossible except in a system where people can pay cash to leap over people who don't).
My "reward" was 10 Premium Tickets, which gave Alex, six 3*s and three 2*s.
I will never own a 5* without hitting Powerball, so I'm done participating in events.

The Black Castle in the Sky event you can get a 5* for clearing the tower (thingy?)... 100 Floors. | |

| And if it's that easy to get it'll be like Fiona, a 4 1/4* in practice because it will be meaningless in trade value. Don't get me wrong, I'm not delete-the-app angry, I don't need Froggy as my avatar. I got beat fair and square. I'm just resigned to being a lower-tier player. Back in the 5* thread, I said I believed there were three routes to high-end cards: cash, extreme luck and extreme grinding. Well, I underestimated the amount of the last two required. If 70+ hours of grinding the VC wasn't enough, I don't need it that badly. With Premium Tickets revealed as a bad joke, extreme luck becomes REALLY extreme luck. Worse yet, the hordes of PTs spawned by Venus has flooded the 3* and 4* market, devaluing what I did get from all those tickets. If I'd spent the entire event doing nothing but grinding out brews and feeders, I'd have come out far ahead Luna-wise than coming just short of #200 on both sides got me. "A little more grinding" doesn't fix my issues because that translates to "other people will just buy a few more elixirs." Even then, the 5*s that anyone will actually consider worthy of notice are generally well into eight figures and requiring months and months of grinding. I could probably liquidate my maxed 4*s and pick up a Thrain right now, if I really wanted to, and I'd end up with a pretty much untradeable 5* that is arguably just a little better than an Achillea, _which nearly everyone who played the event just got for free_. (Sea attack aside, as the game has no meaningful sea content yet.) So I'll keep playing, but mostly just to complete what's left in my 3* and 4* album slots. Anything above that goal-wise is out of my reach because whatever I do, someone with cash to spend can blast right by it. And I knew that going in, of course, the whole game is structured around pay-to-play; I had no illusions of hitting any top 10 leaderboards or competing with people who buy ten boxes at a time. I just didn't think it was _that_ overwhelmingly tilted. Silly me. | |

| Actually it's a very good (IMO) 5* if I remember correctly.

http://w.livedoor.jp/fantasica/d/%a5%e6%a5%cb%a5%c3%a5%c8%a1%fa5#sonia The 5* you get in that event is a monster. http://w.livedoor.jp/fantasica/d/%C5%B7%B6%F5%A4%CE%B9%F5%CE%B5%BE%EB#sonia It then can be reincarnated in an later event. | |

| Why do you class yourself as a 'lower-tier' player? lol I don't think this game is serious enough atm to have tiers of players. Nothing so far takes skill to do which should establish tiers. The only thing you need is Elixer.

I agree... and also, I started playing shortly after the game came out here. It took me over a month (I believe it was around 6 weeks) to save up enough money to buy my first 4* (Django). I paid 800k for him which sucked my bank dry. I got lucky and bought a Gleb for 500k. Now 4*'s are practically given out like candy, so... really, you've just managed to skip the big wait between 3* and 4*. The jump from 4* to 5* is much larger, but with events, that means more and more are getting injected into the game, which means there will be more and more available for you to try to trade up. I got my first 5* from being in the bottom tier of Demon Tower... and you better believe pretty much every second I was awake I was glued to my phone. It consumed me. Don't forget to have fun... it's a game! Don't give up hope. You'll get one. Even if you give up trying to trade and buy a box. You just need a little more time. | |

I don't think I've been this consumed in a phone game. Not even with Rage of Bahamut was I this addicted... Now with the event over I can get some sleep~! Haha Sadly I fall in the category of buying cards but *shrugs* meh *shrugs.* But oh well. It still makes the game more enjoyable for me :-) | |
