[JP] Fell asleep while doing mog king and accidentally selected the 20 NRG one. Didn't expect it to be so easy. Been wasting time doing the 7 NRG one.

Got a rare spawn and got 20,000 currency. Insane.

[JP] Pulled Kid Rydia on the free pull, was hoping for a CG unit :(

I can understand the disappointment of off banner but she is an amazing unit so congrats.

Yeah your one CG Sakura paired with another CG Sakura is easy money.

Oh totally - I'm pretty stoked about it actually! I just can't seem to get me a CG unit at this time...

[JP] Man you rank up so fast because of the half NRG cost of the mog king. I ranked up last night and again this morning. Getting the second part of the any unit ticket may actually be feasible at this rate.

Right?! I put the second ticket on my "want but may not get list." But I may be able to get it. Working hard though on trying to get everything I want. You running the high end one? I see I didn't go far enough to read you are now. How easy is easy?

I ranked up yesterday and today as well. Also gotten kind of lucky on some bonus units. One of the runs today I had x/7. One round of it was just a bomb, second round was a bomb and a bunny. Yes please! And running CG Nichol, CG Lid, and CG Sakura, plus one of the plethora of bonus units I always find on my guest list and it's been really good. I feel like I spend half the day running though! LOL

The half RNG is seriously a boon. But the time sink ... haha! Of course I am running the 7. Mainly because I can handle it without it being out of control. Haven't tried the 20 NRG one. When I last looked I was ~70K currency. And I've had quite a few runs since. I found out though I need around 350k currency for everything I want. XD We shall see how this goes!
 
Sheratan down, missed the esper part as i prepared poorly and the only esper i could use was titan lmao. So while it went off it did no damage :-( Will go back after obtaining a magic tank.

Ended up using wilhelm, wol, tilith, a2 and 2b with pods, marie, and rikku. Ended up rikku cheesing after 50%.

20 minutes until GL maintenance. Use it or lose it.

Clear Chamber of XP PRO and/or Chamber of Riches PRO for 1st time lapis, just in case they go poof with the maintenance.

No ETA because they won't even know when it'll be back up.

Any bets on time up? Or if things will still be broken?

Their stupidity can never be underestimated but I really hope they fix every problem the game has including the disgusting input delay.

Wonderful. I just got the announcement btw. Good job keeping your audience informed through official channels Gumi. It's too bad you didn't know the maintenance was happening 9 hours ago.

Yeah, the announcement came in-game literally like 3 minutes before the downtime, rofl...

... and maintenance is on, no ETA. Fun times for all.

I wasn't in the mood to play tonight so I welcome the maintenance. I won't say no to extra lapis before Ayaka and Silvia arrive.

Oh crap, game is down again? Good thing I did daily stuff this morning, but very much full on energy at this point. Oh well!

Uh, why is there emergency maintenance?

Obviously, I expect some sort of bonus when it comes back up but this is becoming absolutely ridiculous.

They announced it on their page and it's because the game is a buggy mess. We can only expect they fix everything once they are done.

I certainly expect some sort of lapis as well. If it's not put into the game, it's not unannounced.

They have been a complete shit show for weeks now and it's unacceptable at this point.

They did put in game, three minutes before the maintenance lol.

I was just looking at the update schedule. Nier was a little less than two months ago. I actually thought it was much longer. I would have guessed in June or something but it was only August 11. Feels like it's been a lifetime since then. I went on a lapis diet after that so I've gained about 17k lapis in two months. Not a bad rate actually.

Yeah it's interesting because I was thinking the same thing, haven't spent much of anything and I'm coming up to 20k lapis. I mean , that's with the freebie 5000 lapis from the screw up but still. It feels nice to have saved so much. I don't even want to spend anymore.

I'm at 18K lapis with 45tix + 7 tix + 2 10 tix.
and that after went to literally 0 lapis and ticket after Nier (and didnt get anything of value).

I have to admit they are really generous in the last 2 month (The hacker kinda help though)

I hope one day they'll be as generous as Japan's Exvius. I think they owe us over here

Yeah she's insane. I used my lil' Rydia, Sakura, and friend Sakura for that 100+ chain overkill lmao.

Oh totally - I'm pretty stoked about it actually! I just can't seem to get me a CG unit at this time...

I definitely know that feeling. Kept getting rainbows on basch's banner but couldn't seem to get on banner. At the very least Rydia's LB chaining with Sakura's LB for easy mog king clears.

You running the high end one? I see I didn't go far enough to read you are now. How easy is easy?

For your team you'll easily be able to clear it. One of my runs was with your Sakura. I basically use Nichol's mag boosting skill every round and use a combination of skills from the two Sakura's to clear the waves (I can tell you exactly what I use if you need it). The other 3 units do regular attacks as Nichol's move increases LB rate (150%). You can also use lid, Jake, or lasswell to debuff spr on certain rounds as well if need be. On the final round I chain Sakura's LB with another Nichol boost.

I ranked up again after that run where I fell asleep (lmao) which makes 3 rank ups in 36 hours. It's insane atm.

I know what you mean about the time sink, that's why I'm glad I found that I could do the 20 NRG run, as it's saving a ton of irl time. As I say, you'll easily be able to do it with your Sakura, and as you have Nichol you can run full bonus as you only need those two and a friend Sakura.

Had a double rare spawn...twice, on the same run. Nice cool 28k currency. And with that I have enough for part two of the ticket, on day 3 of the event lol.

If all DLC came tied to $13 figurines, I'd consider all DLC to be free

BE has been under maintenance over 8 hours. They started it very early (as in EU time).
I tried to log in around 06:05 my time and it was already on maintenance. I think it started 05:00 EET (06:00 CET)

Thanks,
On one hand it sucks when we know how long it should take and they keep extending on the other hand... Not knowing at all how long the process could take seems even worse.

Hope we get a update soon.

I guess they noticed that too many players were cheesing Sheratan (kill it from 51% hp to 0% in one turn). Dunno, never tried 10 man tiral. Oh well, this just means more compensation :).

Oh damn... He is supposed to be even tougher? I didn't try it but the impression I read already made him sound very troublesome.

Let's see how long this one will take then.

Still not up, still no ETA on when it's coming back.

I honestly don't mind, as long as all bugs are properly squashed.

I didn't know they didn't give compensation because the maintenance was scheduled. Every single mobile game I've played gives compensation regardless of what kind of maintenance it was. Announcement or no announcement, the compensation is because you can't access the game while it's down, and it's down because of bugs on their end.

[JP] I ranked up again...wtf. That's 4 times in 48 hours. I spent the 150k from earlier, which left me with 15k, and I'm already back up to 87k with 50 NRG still to use (ran out of viable friends). Half NRG cost is nuts for this type of event.

Welcome to Gumi. That being said I'm not sure if Alim give us anything on the JP side either (I can't read Japanese so I just accept what they give us lol).
 
So the last update was such a massively buggy mess (duh) that we are on almost 11 hours of additional maintenance with no end in sight, yet the game was allowed to stay in that fucked-up state for days?

Sigh..this company. So on top of this I assume(because it's Gumi and they don't get the benefit) that we will still have maintenance on Wed or Thursday for another 8 hours min.

I was already way behind on this week's exploration rewards before they shut down the game for 18 hours. We'd better get a ton of advance tokens for this disruption.

oh come on Gumi.
why you have to nerf back Sparky damage variance?

i feel pretty pissed, just when i though I can rely on her again. This happen.

It is like they don't want anything to do with Doublehand.
And prefer everyone to focus on chainer meta.

pretty pretty disappointing.

Fixing something that is not broken.

What Sheratan problem? I though the fact she didn't transform was only a visual bug. She summoned the fruits and changed her pattern with no issues.

The whole day has gone by here now and no game.
Maybe I should just play something else if this is how the handle the game.

Yeah, kinda incredible...as a EU player the game has been off for the whole day. That is already bad...but so many hours in and we still have no clue how long it will take overall or when to expect the game to be back.

I hate to be that guy...but you really gotta wonder who works on this game and how much they saving by skipping out in the QA adjustment. Its like they want Global to fail...lol.
