It must decide at the start of the level, like most thingsThe video wasn't necessary because why shouldn't we believe you?
But yeah it seems like it depends on the game. Others report the same. Some get the left swap others the right one.

I took it just to make sure I wasn't somehow messing something up or doing something weird, but that is strange. I don't think anyone had it swap to the bottom left last time.
I think mine is 3.
Nah, I would say it's definitely fixed. There's some reddit guy who has 2 accounts and he always got the same results. Same for me, got always right so far in 5 runs and it looks like that GuardianE always got the bottom left character. Sure it could be RNG but I doubt it.
Yes, it was the bottom right one for everyone when we got him for the first time.
My 6th digit is also a 3. So that has nothing to do with it.
I can do Shiki 40 with
Enel/Enel
Boa/Doflamingo
QCK/QCK
but 2 runs and no drop yet. I don't have the juice on my QCK units to do the 60 reliably, yet. It'll be a shame if we only get Shiki one more time after this.
7/11 was the greatest day in the history of OPTC.

5 days of free crap draws can at least be seen as a pretty good teaching tool / warning to not YOLO pull.

Nah, you're just getting the bad luck out of your system :3
I have had 2 excellent pulls and a bad one so the jury is still out
I managed to reach Shiki on my first try on 60 stamina but I couldnt beat him, 7k each turn was too much for me plus his health cut and his captain switch :/

3rd pull is Chaka, le crapfeste continues.
Yeah those earlier stages are crazy. And then I see some posts on reddit with teams with more than one non qck unit and I can't understand how this should work.
Ran Shiki twice today, cleared it both times but on stage 2 I got the green guys with a cd of 1 and bad orbs...

btw for the people struggling with shiki pirates, here's my 30 sta team:
doffy/doffy
fossa/shiki
H.Zoro/3D2Y Brook
Using brook to fully swap block orbs into matching & then using doffy + fossa allows me to easily insta-KO Indigo, while double doffy gives me enough hp to take several hits from the ape.
I basically never get close to dying, though level 1 antilock is necessary if you use brook.

Not yet, no.

Free pull #3: Mirage Tempo Nami (aka Nami socket)
Free pull: Dupe Whitey Bay. Not terrible, free socket at least
Speaking of, after running Shiki's raid, it bothers me that there isn't an anti-paralysis socket. I know they need to add new features to keep things fresh, but that and blind should be sockets, not damage reduction or things like that. I don't know, I'd just rather have things with better sockets.
Might try 60 stamin shiki later today. I can run 40 pretty easily (lots of stalling since my Enel still has a terrible cooldown). 1/3, so I should probably find a better team

Well, some Sailor Abilities counter those kind of debuffs. The problem is that we are getting newer content earlier (relatively speaking) while updates aren't keeping the same pace.
And Halloween Robin. I just hope they change some Japan unit to give a F2P Blind remover.
Most of the newer ones haven't, right? I'm still waiting on Lucci and Barto books as well.
Though when we get IntHawk books I'll be maxing that ASAP. It's my most used team/character.
The jury is still not out on whether YOLO pulls outside of sugofests are a good idea... for fuck's sake. The value of a silver poster is already bad, and the value of a non-boosted gold poster decreases the more you play the game because the likelihood it's a dupe increases as you collect more units.
EDIT: Looking at the current global RR pool of 4-star INT units, I'm only missing 3 of them. I'm not counting the units that were limited-time, special events. Yikes. This should help me even more avoid this upcoming sugofest. I am guessing a lot of long time players will also have a lot of the 4-star units in the global RR pool just based on total number of pulls they've accumulated.
I'm not sure about our schedule for them, but the way the drop table at the github shows it, the first place to get
legend Mihawk books: first WB pirates FN
legend Lucci: Heart pirates FN
legend Doflamingo: Nico Olvia FN
Bartolomeo: Reovlutionary FN
Of those, it looks like Bartolomeo is the furthest out? I guess we'll see.
Seeing how we get a new Sugo every two weeks now (so we don't skip colour boosts like in the early days) there is no reason to yolo pull at all.
It seems I've had better luck than most though. 3 pulls, 2 new, 1 quire good unit. I've pulled SW Sanji, Chopper and Chinjao.

YES! Finally managed to max my Merry!
I got so lucky though. The last two upgrades were a success at my first try.

I'm basically running a mental checklist every turn to make sure I'm not forgetting something that will instantly kill meI hate the Shiki raid... it's so annoying and you need to pay attention to every single round. Hope it never returns after the 3rd time.
edit: Augh and dead again, missed once on Shiki
I can't take this anymore, even with the non-guaranteed drop I think I'd have been better off doing 40 staminaNeoriceisgood

The half stamina fortnights burned me out, I'm gonna quit stamina-optimizing this game for a while & mostly just log in for gems.

Honestly, I'm not planning on maxing mine any time soon. I'm not sure it's really necessary unless you happen to have Legend Doffy or Fujitora. He's a pretty specific unit compared to raid bosses like Mihawk, Doffy, Kuma, etc, who can help any team.
I still have to max Kuma, and we've got Boa, Kizaru, and Sabo coming in the future. I'd rather put my efforts there.
There were weeks earlier this year where all I did was collect gems from the logins and maybe do snails for colas and what not.
This week, I can't find time to actually use stamina to prevent the bar from being full during half-stamina especially during work days... especially if it's not for units on my go-to teams or a character from the series I really like.

finished my shiki farming (80 copies) and done my first 40 stamina fireza..i don't think i'm gonna farm it though..i'll probably stick to the golen pirates fn rying to get the other sanji skillbooks
i'm gonna go with heal,orb and one between lock and despair..but just because i have planned my sockets that way for my fuji team
if you plan using him as a captain for a driven team lock and despair should be a priority

I'm not in a hurry either. Pica + Coliseum Kid give a full board of matching orbs to Driven teams, and I already have Caesar for boosting their attack.

He's a slasher so autoheal is a high priority and if you plan on ever using him on a QCK Doffy team, it'll be just as useful as you can't use meat orbs to heal unless you want to lose all your damage. I'm going with the tried and true autoheal/bind/despair.
I hit 70 copies earlier so I think that might be enough, I hope.
That's a funny way of saying Gil Tesoro. I'm somewhat expecting it due to the fact that after the next FN, the next possible one could be Gran Tesoro one, which would line up with the unscheduled raids in late November. It's nice to see the movie content hit global but it has the unintended side effect of delaying the release of other legend skill books. We've had SW Ace, Marco, and SW Shanks books repeated in two different FNs so far but no sign of INThawk, which could be another 6 or so FNs away with the WB allies FN.
Tesoro is easy.
Yeah. Tesoro has 3 difficulties: 30, 40 and 60 stamina.
60 stamina launched the second time he appeared and was the only way to get the Rainbow Crab required to evolve him to 5 star. Which apparently has similar stats, same special, but an improved captain ability.
Said difficulty drops other niceties like socketbooks or something like that, iirc. But Tesoro has a 100% drop rate in 40 stamina too.
Source: me being curious and lurking various places.
oh thank god I couldn't handle another Shiki style raid we're in no way prepared for on global
Oh yeah, forgot about him, was mostly thinking 60 stam (even though Tesoro got a 60 stam version later). I'll be farming him too, single character orb fixing is pretty awesome.
And yeah, I'd expect him or Nightmare Luffy to be next. The ones I mentioned could be far off. In fact, at this point I'd say we're actually a little behind on raid bosses, as we're roughly 2-3 months from Marineford story mode and the Admiral legends, but we're waaaay off from being ready for Raid Akainu (both on not having the raid bosses we need and not having the colo characters we need).

Both 40 and 60 are guaranteed drops, which is nice since he has 5 slots to socket. Gamewith says 60 stamina has a 12% tome drop rate and something like 20% for CC. The rainbow crab evolver has a 4% drop rate, which is kinda sad and funny if you ask me. Fortunately his unevolved form still has 5 slots so the only real reason you'd need to evolve him is for his stats.
