After the 1/2 AP EP event, I have no motivation to deal with a lot of this nonsense anymore. Which is good! Because I wouldn't even have the resources to! It really doesn't help that the event right after is the shitty guild war.
Back to just hosting a Magna raid once a day and not doing anything else I guess.

I encourage you to aim for 2 weapons per GW. This is because you won't be able to chose a different weapon during a GW, so you won't be able to start farming for another if you get lucky down the line and end up pulling your last weapon at the beginning of a GW.
In any case, if that's the reason you are taking a break, do disregard this, since a month of work might improve your team a lot, and make farming VH eye a breeze (loading the stage takes me more time than killing it during strike time) so you aren't exactly gimping yourself anyway - certainly not to the point it's worth getting even more burned out.

now everyone can see my preferences (more than usual)
I was ready to rage because I thought I got a character I already had... again... but it was not to be. I'm done spending forever!
That's actually a great advice. Thanks a lot!
Fixed that for you.
lol how many times have you caved already
Only if they release someone cool and new and I can select that character. Like, Godzilla. If I can add Godzilla to my team, I will buy it.
Hmmmm every time?! You should see how I rationalize it. Yesterday I got to watch the new X-men movie for free so I thought, "Hmm, I just saved $40 (for me and gf to see it) by seeing this movie for free, so that means I can buy the star ticket thingy and it all washes out even."
I'm gonna fast two days a month so I have money for mobile games.

Two days? W E A K
Yeah, 2 days isn't very dedicated. Sometimes I tell my GF that we can't go out for an entire month because I want to do Brave Frontier rolls.
Quit while you're ahead to keep your sanity.

On Korwa:
What exactly does this mean? That we can now buff again to extend the ones we have as right now doing it will not reset the counter. The wording doesn't seem to make since.

Finally did a non event raid for the 5 EP...Got luminiera omega summon. I feel lucky.
I don't know, but I'm guessing that they are going to lower the requirements to activate the buffs, perhaps? So, 1/4/2 instead of 2/5/3?
I went from 6.5mil to 800k playing 100k bingo with no first bingos. Thats 57 losses plus whatever third or second bingos I might have gotten in that stretch.
I've never recovered. Forever around a million now.
I hate bingo too.

/has gotten up to almost 6 mil from playing 10 player bingo
playing to hit it big with 20 player bingo is a fool's errand

You are gonna wish you wouldn't see that summon soon enough...trust us.
I just play poker each day in order to buy my daily needs. EP/AP pots and 3 gold animas. Doesn't take that long to earn that money unless you're really unlucky.
Same here. I never invest more in Poker than I need to buy my daily anima, pots, and balm.

there's a little more strategy to that
you'll notice if you click on the square with the ball shown, you'll get a ball lit up on the top left corner, get three lit up and you'll get a bonus ball that'll always be the matching color
what most people do is hold off getting their bonus ball until the 4th or 5th ball appears to increase the chances of not getting the bonus ball to be a number that'll get called in the future
but waiting too long could also mean other people gets bingo before you do, so its a bit of seeing when's the best time to pull the bonus ball

I play it from time to time, just to keep my stash in check (and I want that 1 billion achievement someday). It does have positive return in a long term, even without superbingo taken into account. I setup spreadsheet to calculate risk and profit, and I am really gratefull to SephiZack and Talaysen for probability data.
You need 6 million to have a reasonable start and around 20-25 million to have almost nothing to worry about. After that it's just a tedious process, bringing in slightly less than 1 million per hour.

That's really the best part, it takes less effort and concentration than anything else in the casino. You can just watch TV while tapping on stupid brightly colored tiles.

Granblue casino is a pinnacle of achievement game.
You need to go through grind, pain, losses and frustration. But once you reached certain point - it becomes easy, boring and (emotionally) unrewarding.

Its' in June rebalancing, so it's probably not out yet

yep, once i passed like 1 mil chips, i never really went below that playing 10 man bingo
I'll probably want a giant stash before I comfortably move onto 20 man bingo
well i mean i'm pretty sure slots requires even less attention X)
I believe it'll come with the characters buffs on like june 2nd or something like that

How long does that take you? I feel like I'm playing Poker wrong. It takes me about 40 min just to get the AP pots. I take my money if the higher or lower card is 6-9, and for choosing cards to keep, I aim fo the pairs, usually. If there are no pairs or other patterns I see, I usually keep none of the cards. Is this how I should be doing it?
If you want to make the most chips in the long run, you should always double up unless it's an 8 and you're on the last round. I do suggest considering stopping and taking the money if your current payout is higher than how many chips you currently own just for stability, but once you hit 50k you should just double up nearly every round.

3 ssr in one day. Not too shabby. How often does Cygames do the surprise ticket deals?

Surprise! No one really knows for sure. On average, around once every two or three months.

So far there have been 2 in the span of 1 month. Since I started playing, more or less a month ago.

Wow finally got over 100,000 honors in a raid, and Im just rank 46 with a not so good weapon pool.
The rusted weapons have a couple uses. They are base components for making stronger weapons. There are two that come to mind. The guild wars weapon and the bahamut weapon.
The guild wars weapon needs a MLB rusted weapon of the same type and a bunch of other stuff to change the element of it from light to whatever you want it to be.
The bahamut weapon's first form simply needs a MLB rusted weapon and a bahamut horn which you can only get as a drop from proto bahamut. You can only join proto bahamut raids at rank 50 and can only start them at rank 80.
So basically hold onto it now.
Thank you so much for the clarification. So, since the GW character unlocked with the gun is fire and I'm running fire, do you think it would be a good idea to choose the gun next GW? I chose Harp this time but I'm most likely not getting a single one - I've pretty much given up on participating in this GW and focus on the story chapters.

Not necessarily, the Fire GW character isn't bad but she's not exactly a top tier pick like some others are. She's very good for farming though, but it's arguable how worthwhile it is to spend so much time farming for a GW character just to make farming afterwards a bit easier.
