I think our boxes are probably pretty similar at this point. I also need a QCK rate up before I consider pulling again. Thatch, Boa, and Capone are the RR characters that I need to make blue on par with the rest of my colors. Red and Purple are waaaay ahead, followed by yellow, then green, and lastly blue.

From what I've seen in this thread and through time as pirate friends, most likely! I'm missing the log units as I mentioned before (minus Brook, Luffy) and Sakura Nami. But realistically those units outside of Log Luffy are pretty much novelty/collectors. I feel confident they'll come in time. However, I will say my favorite collector and perhaps overall units I have are the three kids (Ace/Sabo/Luffy). Otherwise I'm like you, need a QCK rate up and am missing Boa, Thatch and Jimbe.
I have a majority of the story units, but am still missing a large handful I want to say. I'm still not super focused on completing the character log yet... I more so go about collecting/trying to drop favorite/main characters from the series. And that's the problem with this game... there are too many! I really want a Gladiator Lucy unit, lol.
Log Nami.

From what I've read from/talked to other players, Marco and Usopp books may only drop from the ducks and it might be specific ducks like how Karoo drops Bonney books.
It's the only one I have left. Just going to wait til tomorrow when the island will have a 2x drop rate.
Pretty crazy Sugofest for me.
I went for broke because... why not? Ever since I've been "back" after ~2-3 months away I've only been playing pretty casually 3-4 times total per week, so I figured I might as well drain my gem stockpile and see what I end up with. I don't have G3, WB, or (obviously) Log Luffy, so it felt like a good Sugo to pull heavy.
In terms of raw pulls, it was... probably the best Sugofest ever? Loads and loads of heavy-hitters. Unfortunately it was several faces I had already collected:
For those keeping track, that's 9/13 gacha-exclusives, 6/13 new to me, and I think 2/13 that are super useful, A+ pulls that will see play (Log Nami and Kuma?). After pulling Basil, LS Zoro, and Vista back-to-back right at the start, I was like "Man... for a new player this would be the best Sugo ever."
I've been out of the scene... are any of these pulls besides Nami and Kuma useful?

From what you've bolded:
I like Rakuyo as a unit, he's another heavy PSY hitter and also has a relatively short enough cooldown (16) which self orbs himself and your captain. I've been using him a lot in my rainbow teams lately. Easy and quick animation to hit I find. Also you can pair him with other strikers, like Urouge, or in a Kid team.
Namule I used during the Brook fortnight, he's a fighter and boosts them as well with his special. There really isn't any restrictions that I'm aware of where "fighters only" come into play. But he has a decent 1,300+ attack when fully leveled which places him along with Law and Mihawk for quick 4 combo hitting power. Otherwise he's a solid DEX unit along with the other Whitebeard crew who are typically heavy hitters.
Nojiko is one of the new 'bonds of friendship' units, but not much to say about her unfortunately.
Log Nami is probably one of the more useful log characters in regards to her special. In the recent Franky ranking she was used to get some pretty high scores. She has a low enough cooldown to start with and will boost orbs.
Kuma is works well too as another STR unit, in combination with other units it'll help get orbs. He's a shooter and if you want to run 2x/2x teams with attack and HP, that works. We just had his skillbooks however in the Skypiea fortnight which just ended.
Don Krieg is a decent INT hitter, personally I used him when Garp first came out and his animation is easy enough I've found. His special is a 999 turn poison, but it's nothing comparable to the farmable Sir Crocodile evolution's poison special which will be extremely useful when the Princess Turtle comes out.
Lastly Fossa, is the STR orb booster, he's got a relatively high cooldown now which only maxes to 18 when his skillbooks become available. The cooldown is a bit too high in my opinion but I think he's a cool unit. Another strong STR slasher, however Arlong still bests him in raw attack.
--
Some of these units have second types which I haven't listed, mainly because we don't have that released in Global yet as well as the sockets/slots upgrade where some of these units will benefit more to your overall team. Give this website a check for more in-depth info: https://optc.github.io/
Fossa also features in some goofy teams that use his captain ability to make Monster Chopper (among others) do insane damage with their specials. Not sure how often they see use, but they're fun.
As for "fighters only" restrictions, each of the four upcoming Impel Down fortnights focus on one of the character classes. They don't prevent you from using other classes (like the color type fortnights we've had), but the stat penalties are so severe that you wouldn't use anyone else outside of utility (Usopp, etc).

Yeah, I have Jinbe, but I feel like he's not really utilized in QCK teams. If peopl actually liked Fighter teams, I'd be set!
I have Log Luffy, Sanji, Chopper, and Robin. Robin being my favorite novelty character because the art is pretty sweet.
I am completely ignoring the character log. I cut any character that isn't novelty cool not useful in any way. I'm waiting for Dressrosa 6-star Zoro to show up one day and for him to be suuuuper sick.
Also what I'm getting out of our conversations is whoever gets Boa first wins, right?
Great - thank you! I actually have pretty good luck with Sugos and have a very respectable box, although it won't wow heavy players or anything. But because I've pulled some good units it makes people like Rakuyo and Namule a little less exciting. I already have Shanks as a Psy heavy hitter, QCK units from Fortnites, etc.
It's interesting... the bigger my collection gets, the more "narrow" the use case becomes for a character. Kuma may or may not get use as a Sub in a STR team for example, but, like Vista, I'm assuming there might be some opportunity to use him as a captain when I need the HP.

Lol, sure. We can call it the Boa campaign. You're right, Jimbe probably doesn't get much use as a unit, but for me a good portion of the game is almost pokedex like. Whenever possible I like using units I haven't before, right now with duck isle I've got Siam and Curiel in my team. So I'd definitely have use for Jimbe, he just needs to join my crew!
That may be the case and sometimes you have no choice in regards to captain selection amongst friends. But there are always viable team compositions for clearing events and most of the time it's 'clearing it once' versus 'clearing it multiple times'. Eventually the latter only matters if you're mass farming and want a fast run time. Otherwise I find that all units will have their use eventually, plus preference of seeing X on your team is always fun. Glad you were able to get new recruits.
Not exactly happy with my Sugo pulls...
So, starting off right away, I have three duplicates. Mr. 2 being the worst. I swear to god I get this guy almost every single sugo. I'm so tired of seeing him drop. Truly the (poisoned) gift that keeps on giving.
Other three guys are new, but I'm not too sure how good they are. Mr. 3 is an extra turn delay guy but he's farmable so I don't feel TOO happy. But yeah, at least he's a new addition. Not sure how good the Voyage Dream Usopp is.
Ceriel seems like the only drop I'm kinda okay with. I've been wanting a new INT unit to replace Don Krieg in my high-end INT team. I have Vista, Moria, Nico Robin, Basil Hawkins and Don Krieg. All of them are 5 star units except for Krieg. I'm not sure how good Ceriel is, though.

2 Marco books, 2 Bonny books and 4 GPU books. A little bit disappointed because my goal was to get 3 Marco books per day. That said I wasted some stamina on the mission and the Kraken challenge so maybe this would've get me my 3rd book.
And damn this island sucks if you want to evolve pigs and Karoos... Because you can only use skill books to level them. The "fooder" animals all have skills which I want to max. They aren't really necessary but I like to complete things.

Log Usopp seems pretty good, still has a turn delay but he also cuts enemy defense. I wouldn't mind it, plus he's a striker so he'd get a boost in a Kidd or Rakuyo team.

damn..latelky everything this game does is irritating..the drop rate on carue island is irritating,the cola mission on shells town is irritating..the farming without results is irritating..
i have like 3 evolved carue and 4 skillbooks of marco from my farming since the whole event started

Erm...the event is just a day old at this point xD
And its not really irritating...just RNG, same way it has been since Day 1.
PS. 4 Marco skillbooks per day would be a great rate for the event.

well i reason more in stamina bars than days..and yesterday got 2 refills
also,if i got this straight..basically marco skillbooks only drop if you get a secret stage and it drops a chest,otherwise is just 2 types of vivi skillbooks and nothing else
so if you are also interested in famring carue,you have to choose between the two
and it's possible that the same kin d of "drop condition" it's shared with GP usopp's ones..so i must consider myself lucky to not have gotten those instead
well i reason more in stamina bars than days..and yesterday got 2 refills
Hmm...okay that makes it look a bit worse indeed. How many Usopp books did you get during that time ? It seems like Bamco has dropped the Golden Pound skill book drop rate by quite a lot since the first Kuro Fortnight.
Anyway good luck on getting those Marco books, im skipping this Fortnight because i dont need any of the skillbooks or Caroue.
Since they gave 3 free gems today, I decided to do 1 more pull. I got Pell, which at least I didn't have.
My Carue island team from now on will be the following one:
Log Nami / Towel Nami
Crocodile / Hawkins
Buggy / Ussop
With Buggy and Log Nami special I can kill carue in 2 turns, which is nice. BTW, do you know if Carue uses his <20% skill even if he is delayed?

only one skillbook for GP..but I'm ok with that since it's already maxed for me
as i said,for marco the condition for the drop seems clear..get a secret stage (either?) and get a chest drop instead of a duck..i don't know about Gp usopp though...it might be the same and so have a 50-50 chance of getting either marco or gp usopp skillbooks..but lately i always got marco's
then you have bonney that you get with a chest in the boss stage,the 2 vivi skillbooks that are random and then the sea cat one that i got once and have no idea how.

Are we supposed to evolve a whole bunch of Karoos to create his skillbooks?
Majukun
Member
yeah
basically i'ts impossible to bring it down to a decent amount no matter what..i managed to evolve 3 for now,but i keep getting bonney skillbooks at the boss stage
it's a shame because a maxed carue can found it's way in a kid rainbow team quite well..but max it with this drop rate and conditions is insane
and what is worst,is that there isn't even skillbooks for the thing,not even in japan
Neoriceisgood

Yet his "skillbook" drop rate has still been higher for me than golden pound.
yeah,but GP usopp has multiple fortnights from which it can drops
carue only has this ..and japan is now so far past this fortnight that i don't think it will ever get a proper skillbook at all..and that's a shame
Fortnights characters never have skill books somewhere else. It's not the biggest lose ever, but it's sad that we won't be able to max him since his skill is not useless (orb shuffler, no TND or RCV). It's the best f2p PSY Striker too...
So far I have 2 Marco books and 3 Usopp ones. Mine is at 13 CD, so theorically 12 should be enough during a skill up. I'm going to try to farm 20 though.

A vista x towel team is way faster for clearing this island than vivi x mihawk lol.
sure there's a little bit of risk but otherwise it's way better.

Well that's it for me and sugo. I am pulling again when Bandai gives you a 100 % sugo unit as your first pull.
Well I did Carue 30 stamina, don't have the will to do more runs. I just can't get a constant run, no matter what.
Does Usopps book drop only on 30 stamina or also on 15?

i would say it's actuallòy really useful,shuffler and 3 orbs exchange means that in a rainbow team,even with pretty bad luck you are gonna get at least 2 guys with a matching orb using its skill,and that's the pessimistic scenario
and that's the kind of risk i don't wanna take
it's 30 stamina anyway,so at best i'm gonna do 8 runs a day of that..i can lose a bit more time ,but i hate to waste stamina

I think I'm gonna exchange vista for striker Croc actually.
Vista/Towel Nami is perfectly doable ... but it gets extremely risky if you happen to run into every duck squad in a row, basically 0% of building up the HP a vista team needs.
I've been tossing a delay on him with Mr. 3 and he hasn't hit me with that skill so far.
I've been rolling two Towel Namis and just making sure to hit all my food orbs. Robin's special helps, but I have neglected to put Buggy in my team like I've meant to do, so idk if 2x attack with a non-purple orb is as good as a matching orb.
Regarding the Marco books each time the Banana Gator dropped a chest I got one. It was only 2 times so far but it's still a 100% rate.
