I can't think of a single summer character I want at the moment. Then again, Mahira came out of nowhere earlier this year and I ended up shooting for them. Granblue always leaps something on me just when I'm losing all interest.

(Stop it, Granblue. Stop!)

I'm weak willed. And while I'd absolutely love to have Zooey, my luck likely won't be that good.

And I have some time until it comes about anyway, I'm sure. Enough to get back to where I was, which admittedly wasn't too much (~11k crystals).

Just like the other event, I pretty much have everyone in the event or most people in the event. In this case everyone, except Baotorda and Sevastien.

And this event Charlotta looks better than default, so the costume is going on the default.

Holding onto my rolls. I just broke 200 today. 100 more till I can poverty spark.

I'm not sure if I'll make it by the end of the year. Need 5000 crystals per month or 4100 if I hold onto the three tickets we get per month. If I get plat each month still then 3600 is the target. It's lofty.

Need some freebies and maybe a couple surprise tickets.

Per month we get 6 tickets from Daily Bonus and then 1 from coop each 21 days or so.

changes coming in june/july courtesy of /u/laforet from GBF subreddit

Usual summary:
Changes for the upcoming GW:
Top 50 crews from B and C leagues will be promoted to the next higher league the following day.
Additional consolation badges will be available to those who meet certain contribution targets during the tournament days, unless your crew has already won the match in A league.
Crew leaders will have an option to decide whether 50% contributions earned from public raids (i.e. those not hosted by own crew members) will be added to the crew total.
Other confirmed changes:
June and July will see 4 story chapters added per month 2 months.
Benedia (SSR Rackam's gun) to receive 4*, mostly likely during the June legfest.
Casino skin for Io to arrive later in June
LB/EMP perks for all remaining characters including IM@S collab characters. LB skills added to all characters introduced by early 2016 (up to but not including Hallesena)
Ultimate Bahamut (Previously hinted during the anniversary stream) will be implemented in July with both Normal and Hard (said to be harder than Baha HL) difficulties. The enemy will have null element and deal damage randomly in one of the cardinal elements similar to the previous null element Sandalphon raid. It may have a slight resistance to light and dark damage for balancing.
Very early events will be rerun as "Side Story" beginning in July.
Proposed changes:
Inventory screen to be split into multiple panels by item type
Moon cost of EP items to be adjusted- they were already more expensive than AP items and is even less economical considering EP regen has recently doubled.
Crew chat will have its UX and notification revamped; beta access will be given to small number of crews
18-pax magna HL raids may be reworked to accommodate 30 players
Drop rate for true animas, magna bits and Bahamut horns to be increased across the board, except Baha and Baha HL raids which will see fewer drops of true animas.
Major rebalancing patch planned for July

B rank teams being promoted to A rank doesnt make sense, youre putting cupcake teams against hardcore teams, theyll be obliterated (or rather easy wins for A rank veterans)

18-pax magna HL raids may be reworked to accommodate 30 players

Oh good wanpan x 12 more.

Bye Korwa and Summer Zoey?
Click to expand...

Korwa was already nerfed, its RIP for the game is they nerf her again.

And the train for nerfing Zoey has already passed, several people whaled for her this february and its saving for her right now, korwa and Hallesena were nerfed hours later of release but 1 year later is too much of a wait and the public backslash would be too much.

The rebalance is probably another batch of garbage character buffed like the last time, charas like Sarunan, Agielba, Heles, Socie, Metera... I expect a huge Buff to Io.

So, kinda glad I'm weak willed. I was just a bit shy of 3k crystals and the event helped me get enough, so I did one final 10 roll.

Scathacha, get!

If they wanted to nerf them - they would do it long ago. They survived a number of balance readjustment already. Although I expect that their perks will be pure trash level as some other strong chars.
I think it's more about middle/low powered characters to increase their usefulness. Perks already do some stuff, but some chars need stronger attention.

Correct. I don't recall any of those rebalances actually nerfing characters. The few times they did, it happened days after the release of the characters.

Rolled today and I pretty much got salt... I think I'll seriously start saving up Crystals and draw tickets today for a future spark. Might as well go as far as the inevitable 2018 Zodiac character.

Speaking of, I only joined in late Summer last year so I'm not sure of it, but it felt like Andira was available a lot more than Mahira's been. She's been available all of, what, once? That seems off.

I think the the original question wasn't whether or not "itchy tasty" was in the Japanese version of Resident Evil (as your link says yes it was) but whether or not the "itchy tasty" reference was in the Japanese event preview in Granblue. Which, I just took a listen, and no it's completely different!

Got SSR Orchid from my measly three 10-draws this legfest and I have a 3 SSR-man team of the same element finally: Black Knight / Lady Grey / Orchid. Is this team potentially stronger than my current Magisa / Aoidos / Yoda (lol) ? And who's the weakest link among them, Lady Grey? Either way I think from this point I should give more attention to the dark element pendants-wise since getting Claws as drops is much harder than Colo Canes. I wanted to get Tien/Esser as a first GW character, but maybe Seox/Six would be better now...

yeah that team is very good. I have Orchid and she is fantastic, she hits like a truck and requires almost no button pressing (press 1 spam autoattack) what is great for racing.

In fact that team is simmilar to mine (Black Knight, Orchid, Vira), I am going to get today Six (50 prisms more...) so I will play Six, Orchid and Vira with BK and Vampy in the backseat.

And once I get S.Zoey I have my meme team of D.Sarunan, Zoey, Fire Potato ready to one shot chevs lol.

Why are you getting colo canes, you should be getting ancient ecks sachs from twin elements instead.

Every wiki article, guide, player I've asked, recommend Magma Grid first. I'm playing since February (rank 90) and so far I've go only two Colo Canes from drops (others are from pendants). Eckes are even more rare to start farming immediately so I'm not going to bother with them until I get basic magma grids for every other element.

Finished the little lunch event this morning ...

And now they ask me to draw those characters ? Do you want my money THAT MUCH ?

It's the first time i invest myself in a gran blue event , the draw rates for this event is RIDICULOUS

Its a trap, Charlotta is not worth the effort, she is a begginer character that can be rolled on the rigged ticket. outdated at this point.

Keep in mind that the characters will always be available to draw. The only characters who leave the draw pool temporarily are the SSR versions of the main story characters, seasonal characters, and zodiac characters.

Ancient weapons have magma skills so they also are affected by omega summon auras.

It took me only 3 days from stage 1 to get the character, I dont recommend you grinding so hard if you want to keep your sanity. 200 pots and 700 berries later...I got it.
