They are probably monitoring this forum for brilliant ideas such as that...



Seriously though... I can smell a Grand Prix on the horizon... we have what, like 80+ summons from this event if you got to 200 dice sets, not to mention Ally summons and a metric sh@#ton of Ally points to burn?

lol yep, im currently closing in on 300 free ds

Could just be my poor luck, but I think Ateam "tweaked" the rates on skill leveling with all the skilled B summons floating around. I've never failed so many times trying to level up a level 1 breath monster.

hope this event last for atleast 1 month lol it is f*king great

It ends Wednesday night (Thursday 1:59 AM EST).

For those of you, like me, who need a little inspiration to keep going...




... and if that's not enough: White Fortune Cards! Drop Anima summons and GES. O_o

So how inspired are you by the way they totally nerfed the prize schedule while calling it a "drastic upgrade". Nice job killing all the goodwill this event had generated.

If you can't agree less... that means you disagree with him, because your approval meter has already hit rock bottom and therefore cannot go down any more.
Anyways, I don't really mind, myself. I was never one for repeatedly tapping on an iPhone screen anyway, and nothing will entice me to tap more than I already do. I just got the Great Evolution Soul and finished at that.

Although the event is no longer a Perpetual Potion Machine, and Species/Guild Summons are teh suck, I did manage to get 2 SOS+ from the White cards.

Even at the current low low prices, that's still a day's worth of EP for tapping away at the event.

I'm actually happy they nixed the tons of potions.

It was nice to get tons of myep however it was also making it really hard to gain ground when shooting for ranking. It really came down to how much time you had to spend clicking. Now peoples myep will be weened down and I bet a lot of people will not want to start using there pure ep.

It will also give a chance to correct the value of Soe+. I was having a hard time selling them @ 2:1ep.

Well, it was too late to fix myEP issue. Event ends soon. And even with previous rewards the event was quite a challenge for people bellow level 70 mark

Being level 140, I don't really care if it was a challenge for people at level 70. I was level 70 once and all the events sucked for me too.



That being said, If you were level 70 and had all your points in energy, it was a potion machine for you too.

Not only that, it was a levelling machine, I went up over 25 levels so far.

About the new white cards... do they only appear once a day, or what? Not seeing them at all any more.

The white cards are relatively rare. In 5 laps, I've seen them three times and I've gotten a Dark Summon from each. One of my clan members said he got a Lower Defense Spirit, so there is certainly some good to come from them.

Also, has anyone noticed that it seems like Black Cards appear less frequently? It seemed before they were like 75% chance on each possible spot, and now they feel like 50% or less.

Black Cards does seem to be appear less but then again I am not playing as much as I was before so it could be just that.

In anycase, Ateam is back tracking big time on this event, which is fine with me. It is their product, but what I don't like is insulting my intelligence. Even my dog knows what they did was not "upgrade". Oh yes, my dog does have a DS account.

Black and White cards now only appear during "Bonus Time"

Soooo MAJOR UPGRADE!!!

They changed it now it sucks

also I'm a dumbass for burning through pots to do whole laps and not finding any white cards. just black cards, and all i ever get from those are 6,666, soe REG, and B skilled summon. Seriously, I get better things from gold cards than black cards on average. (sometimes I get 300k from gold cards)


really beginning to suspect there is some sort of account-tied "probability key" that interacts with reward rngs... I've been getting very little gold, net loss in myep for doing laps (because I did most pre-bonus time release). my girlfriend has fewer sets than me, about a clear 50% (my ~5m aggregate to her ~8-9m aggregate) more gold, net GAIN in myep approximately equal to the loss I've got (I lost 14, she gained 13) and we're both at approximately 250 sets each.

And then there are OTHER people who are averaging what 30m/200 sets or something, and gaining my_ep at exorbitant rates due to card multi myep rewards etc...

The thing I find strange about this is that results are consistent. I got about the same amount of stuff at lap 3 as 6 as 9, etc... there was no "big payout" it al seemed consistent throughout. gf said the same, but her consistent gold/myep payout was higher. Other people I talk to who have gotten aforementioned 30m/200 also say the gold was consistent, they just got the 6m black cards frequently.


Anybody care to confirm or deny this?

There really seems to be some sort of account tied modifier to rng results... like how some people have summoned multiple AAs from ally, and others who have been playing for 200+ days never have from any summons.

Larry, I've gotten a total of one 6m payout from Black cards. Only reason is I seem to have figured out the 'pattern' for some of these.

Card Layout:

A B C D
E F G


I see that E and G often end up here:

G E
X X X
X X

That's about it. I was trying Armitaage's idea of just hitting the center card over and over and saw nothing like the gold amounts, but I have been able to select rewards. Add to this the fact that I don't spend $$ on this (that gift card awhile back) I think it is a fact that RNG hates you.

Sorry.

Scratch, thx to you i just got 5x ds, it's the G from your chart

Regarding the gold drops, I've completed 500+ sets, and seen many gold and black fortune cards. I have yet to see as single drop greater than 300k,
