BLEACH Brave Souls |OT| (© Tite Kubo/Shueisha, TV TOKYO, dentsu, Pierrot)

Got Muramasa on my 7th single, he's the one I wanted the most!
This makes up for not getting anything from my 6 4/5 tickets and 10 Brave Souls tickets.

He'll probably be replaced if I get Ulquiorra next month >.>
 
Whoa, that's a lot! Good luck if you're going to keep trying! I was only going to do 10 singles because of the double chance gacha, want Riruka.

Finally got a good secondary on my NY Card (10% SP) after 3 re-rolls.

Yeah, i'm definitely done with this gacha. Gotta build up orbs for the X2 gacha. Must have used all my luck getting TT Rukia from that ticket and getting both NY Orihime and Mind Kisuke within 2 singles.

Gratz on the secondary. Wish I could get SP on it since I mainly only use it for SAD/SAR builds.
 
Thanks! I farmed all the Byakuya yesterday and just evolved him today. I just need to augment him and level up :D

I miss the Rukia EXP event. :(
Cmon 19 million downloads!

Finally got my Stark 100% maxed. Man I forgot what a fun character he was to play with. Not pulling on this banner either, even though Kazeshini looks like fun too. I guess I just don't care much about the zanpukto characters.

The Awakened Gacha with 6 Star Shunsui, Jushiro, TT Rukia, Past Shinji, and Toshiro is coming in the next update, today at 11pm PST.

Interesting that they released this while the last zanpakuto banner is still up. I won't summon as I have two of the characters. Just as a note as well, I don't think the 50 missed orbs is that big of a deal to lose out on. That's two 3 stars you woulda pulled anyway right?

I've three of the five so I wont be pulling but apart from missing out on 50 orbs I wonder will the 6* unlock the 5* version in your gallery? Because that could lead to some OCD rage ;)

No it doesn't, that's one of the reasons I'm not pulling D:

Curious to see what the fillers for Fullbring gacha are, hope it's not the Tag Team Noble Bearing fillers we missed out on because of the Step Ups (Academy characters, Tosen, Blue Soi Fon...)

Judging from what happened prior with the first step-up gatcha we received, I'm guessing that's exactly the fillers we'll get with Rukia/Riruka/Renji, and it saddens me. I really want to pull for the former three, but I already have Izuru/Momo Academy versions (multiple of them, actually), as well as Soi Fon. Tosen, I don't need or care for. So yeah, not the best gatcha to pull from. I might just see what Japan receives and then decide. As mentioned, I do REALLY want Rukia/Riruka, but not if the rest of the gatcha is filled with horrible units.
 
I don't have any of those characters and even I'm hesitating D:

I don't blame you if you don't pull on this gacha, there's always a chance that the banner characters will be included in an Attribute Selection as well.

Valentines is also coming up!

Yeah, lots to save up for, that's for sure. I'm still hoping they'll put in some better characters as fillers, but I'm doubtful.

Yikes, if those are the fillers then that is more the reason for me to save up for the Vizard banner in a month.

As for the album stuff, I never check it out so I don't care about that haha.

Well this should make Crystal/Jewel grinding easier, too bad I only have the 4 Star Kisuke.

This is coming in the 4.1 update along with some character balances for Academy Renji, Academy Momo, and Tech Yamamoto.

Thats gonna make farming jewels a hell of alot easier. I need another 5* Kisuke though, and 3 of the medal moes when he releases at the end of the month.
 
Yeah I'm definitely going to get 3 Moes from the Medal Exchange because of this change!

Excited for the new Omaeda that was added to the Album, my Coin Team will get even better :D

Man, that crystal link change is a long time coming. Glad to see it finally being fixed/altered!

Well did another single on the Zanpakuto gacha and got Muramasa! So glad I got what I wanted after all the orbs I spent.
Congrats on achieving your goal! d(^_^)v
 
Congrats! Glad you finally got something from this gacha!

The Byakuya Raid is coming back in back in 2 days, technically tomorrow at 11pm PST

Thanks!

Yay! I get to farm it again after just finishing TT Rukia.

Thanks! It took alot of orbs but I do feel a sense of accomplishment.

Ahhh crystal drop rate being improved is so nice. I have Captain Urahara so that will help me tremendously. I don't know if you guys have this issue, but now that I have so many six stars, farming for crystals is what I spend wayyyy too much time on.

Nothing kills my interest in this game like grinding out lots of high level co-op, pub groups seem almost universally terrible

I hate when people AFK and when someone with a bad special takes the soul bomb. 😩

What raid were you doing? I might be able to help!

The raid update improved co-op a lot but I haven't played raids in a looong time. One person who afks or disconnects ruins the whole run. I just stick to farming raid characters in solo. It takes more runs, but is less frustrating and doesn't feel like a waste of time.

My need to have at least one 5* Ken got the better of me and I pulled a few times on the new gacha, no Ken but I did get Soi Fon on my 4th pull and decided to call it quits there. She's new to me so happy enough with that. I'm sure I'll get a Ken some day

Thanks for the offer, it was Byakuya, got it done in the end, I think the fact I was doing it at an odd hour had a lot to do with it. During prime time its usually not quite so bad.

Yeah I tend to use solo more than raids, largely because it does as you say feel like less of a waste of time. Dreaming of the day I have decent enough equipment to auto the 5* solo raids ;)

Congrats on the Soi Fon!

I have both Kenpachi (Power and Technique), and honestly I rarely play them. Their movesets are so incredibly boring (and they're slow). Power-wise they're great, but I'd much rather run a different Power/Technique character, such as the aforementioned Soi Fon or Rukia), even if it took longer to clear content. They're just so much more enjoyable to play as.

I hope the new Kenpachi coming up has a better moveset.

Yeah I have Redpachi, but I only use him in PVP. I would use him in PVE if he actually had a guard break strong attack, so i'm just sticking with Xmas Lisa for raids for now
unless I get VC Rukia in the upcoming X2 gacha, fingers crossed.
 
The Klab Games stream (JP) revealed that the Medal Exchange characters Old Man Zangetsu and Blue Toshiro are getting 6 Stars along with Tech Shikai Ichigo and Purple Kon.

The new Medal Exchange Rukia (the plushie) is Tech and has Damage Reduction.

I guess you'll be able to choose a new title screen with the update, there's a Shinigami with Ichigo's gang and Aizen/Gin/Tosen with the Espada and Wonderweiss. Wonder if that means Aaronieoro, Zomarri, Lilynette, and Wonderweiss will get some playable units.

Zanpakuto Side Story Part 2 was also announced.

If all DLC came tied to $13 figurines, I'd consider all DLC to be free
I stopped playing the game during the Holidays because of how much time you had to spend to max level and crystal farm the 6* units. Did it get any better the last couple weeks ?
 
Scans have revealed Timeskip Toshiro, Kenny, and Ikkaku as the new 5 stars for the double chance, Ginjou is a 4 Star.

They just released an update to make the Crystal drop soul trait work more like Coin drop for easier farming.
Raid points were added to make getting Raid characters easier to get, you get 1 for each 200 points.

Basically what Hypno said. The new raid point system makes it much easier to get raid characters playing solo and the new crystal/jewel link drop rate is improved.

Those new character announcements seem pretty good. Didn't expect post timeskip Ikkaku to get a 5 star if I'm being honest. Hopefully it's cool though, seeing as how Bankai Ikkaku has only been in one banner for the past 6 months or so.
 
Managed to beat all the Espada Challenges, Muramasa's weakening special really helped out.

Got a Orange Spirit Core from the 4 Star ticket and another from the 3 Star or more ticket.

Oh wow at the new JP gatcha....

Trait: Damage Reduction

Skills: Super Armor, Flurry, SA Range/Power Up, NA Range, Special Move Power Up

Heart Toushiro: (Arrancar Killer)

Trait: SAD

Skills: NA Range/Power Up, Frenzy, Special Move Range/Power Up, Debiliator, Sprinter

Technique Ikkaku: (Hollow Killer)

Trait: +100 attack

Filler characters:

Past Kisuke

Man...I was going to summon for Riruka/Rukia, but not anymore. I'm saving everything for this one. The filler pool is amazing too, so man y new characters for me to try for.

And yes, they gave the new Kenpachi Flurry + Super Armor. Again. Even with the new "Soul Bomb" meta, a team of Power/Technique/Speed Kenpachi will be a nightmare. The Speed Kenpachi is Damage Reduction too, so with full DR Links...yeah, good luck killing him before he kills you.
