Update: 12k diamonds, 370 pulls, $270 spent. I got all of them š I hit hard pity on every single one. This was definitely my worst pull ever. Xavier: 2 Rafayel: 2 Sylus, Zayne: 1 and Caleb: had to use the crate. I used up 90% of my budget on this one event š¤Ŗ. The kindles will be sent out soon āļø
Update: Iām working on getting Zanyie and Caleb š„¹ RAF keeps cockblocking me lol
*this all in my opinion obviously, not really any spoilers but just in case. Also sorry Caleb I didnāt feel like changing my banner cause you werenāt out when I started on this lol
Rafayel: Lumerian Sea God
Story 9/10. Battle skills 7/10
Help my fishie is crying and it broke my heart. I knew going into this myth that it was going to hurt but damn at least kiss the brick before you throw it at me. I find Rafayel so fascinating and this myth answer some questions but also gave me a lot more questions. Also I love how this myth tied into the main story *chef kiss* I think Iām a little biased because of the fact that Rafayelās myths are the only ones I love each one. I love mermaids and they gave it to us without it feeling like fan service.
Very easy battle campanion. I wish now that we have the others that his is more powerful but Iām a simply person. Fighting with a giant fish is entertaining.
Xavier: King of Darknight
Story 9/10. Battle skills 8/10
My baby š„¹ I love this myth, and itās honestly tied with RAF imo for best 3rd myth. I love how this is a continuation of Lightseeker, and not only that confirmation that Xavier MC are stuck in a time loop. I think Iām a sucker for what if stories and this checks all the boxes. Also I liked how stoic Xavier was in this, heās personality very intriguing bust makes sense, since in this timeline heās literally lost everything he loves, and basically punishing himself for his mistakes.
I think is this his best skin, hands down. Thereās no comparison to Lumiere and Lightseeker (also note I know thereās a lot wrong with this set when you are in the high levels, but Iām only in the early 100s and have had no problems yet)
Caleb: Netherlord
Story 8/10. Battle skills 8/10
I went into his myth thinking I was going to hate it but I really love it. But first letās address the elephant in the room; I do not care/have a problem with the whole Gege/Meimei baby sister troupe. I could see it coming from his very first introduction that he was the forbidden love troupe. Anyway Caleb is my least fave LI, he talks to much and he annoys me but damn he is hot and this myth wrapped him up in a pretty bow for me lol. I think the yearning between Caleb and MC was done very well, by the end I was actually sad. I also really loved the whole underworld storyline. And it really played into the whole we arenāt ever going to be together because of fate, but weāll still try to defy it anyway. Also the whole ghost bridegroom reminded me of TGCF so thatās also probably why I really like it.
This is a slight learning curve to this skin. The whole you actually have to pay attention to the Arden oath cut scene and hit the circles is interesting. I think this skin is way more powerful than X02.
Zayne: God of Annihilation
Story 6/10. Battle 8/10
Zaynie how I love you but I hate this myth. The backshots, tiddies out canāt fully make up for the lack of story. Imma be honest, I donāt really remember much from this myth cause I was bored reading it. I feel like Zayne really got the short end of the stick, and we didnāt really learn anything new about him. It wa style same old, canāt be together because of astra, Zayne figures out they canāt be together and someone dies. I wish that they would have given us just a little more insight to Zayne, like how is he a foreseer and a god? I need a little more connecting points.
Not gonna lie this skin confused me. It took me a while on how to actually battle with this one. The whole having to drain this to unlock that took a while to figure out. But once I did I really like playing him. Tbh I didnāt like his other skins so this was a nice change.
Sylus: Silverwing Fiend
Story 5/10. Battle 7/10
I really wanted to love this Myth, it had everything I love Vampires, Period drama, and fighting as foreplay. But to me, this felt full of fan service. It was like watching a filler episode of anime that is just pure fan service. Donāt get me wrong I love hear Sylus call us his wife, but that paired with people wanting vampire Sylus as wellā¦ it felt like the story was more of an after thought. And we really didnāt learn much else about Sylus and MC past. Compared to RAF and Xav being a continuation, I would have expected the same. Also dragon Sylus is top tiered in my opinion, and I wanted to see more of that.
Same goes for his battle play, I think it can be a powerful skin, but I tend to play with Dragon Sylus more often than this one. That being said it is an easy skin to play with and doesnāt require much thought on how to use it and the special moves.
I didnāt proof read any of this, but who is surprised at this point.
Iāve finished it and all I can say is Iām a little confused lol. The only thing I can takeaway from is the the LIs are from different dimensions and are flipping between their(the world of their myths) and present day. And I think itās causing the earth to die faster
Iāll elaborate more in the morning when I can process everything more lol
This might be a little controversial what Iām about to say, but hang with me.
Caleb girlies getting upset with the whole baby sister line is forgetting/not fully understanding MC and Calebās troupe. They are the Forbidden love architect. Their whole dynamic is a will they wonāt they situation. In 90% of Calebās 5 star cards, thereās this underlining tension and line where toeing between whether the other one is willing to cross.
To me when you take this dynamic a way, you kind of ruin Calebās whole storyline. Caleb is so obsessed with MC that he is willing to be anything to her as long as heās in her life. Even if that means playing the role of a brother figure. And in turn we slowly see MC become equally obsessed, and start to realize that she actually has feelings for him that arenāt entirely platonic.
Also, the whole āgege/meimei, niichan/neechanā dynamic would translate more closely to the whole āwhat are you doing stepbrother/ daddy kinkā in English. Or if youāve ever seen Clueless,it is like Cher and her stepbros relationship.
In my personal opinion : this is what makes Caleb interesting. ļæ¼
Also I do recognize that not everyone grew up watch animeās/Asian dramas where this is a very common storyline. Read Vampire Knight, and I promise you this wonāt seem like a big deal anymore lol.
Anyway ignore all grammar/spelling mistakes. Itās late, Iām tired and had a very stressful week lol
I have reservations about his theme for this myth. Iām a hardcore vampire lover (thanks twilight obsession) but Iām not sure I like it in Sylus. And I know heās technically a Fiend(demon) but I was super underwhelmed watching his trailer. But I will update in a few days once I read through and play with his myth and give my final thoughts.
I just hit the one year mark and it makes me so sad that this game has fallen off story wise.
I was so into this game that I got a bunch of my friends to start playing it at the beginning of the year but like Iām bored now. And it started right around the wedding banner.
Personally I thought it was way too early to have a wedding banner and I still stick by it. Because one) Caleb had just been reintroduced and now weāre getting āmarriedā
two) now the banner will be lopsided if we ever get the last LI
No new story updates, the whole point of the game, and it hasnāt been updated in how many months? And on top of that we are getting half asses banners instead. The whole Idol banner disappointed me so much. The only card that was good was Xavierās and even then the whole Polar Night mcguaffin sucked. The banner should have been an AU like the Catch-22 banner. Also the minigames sucked ass too. I didnāt even complete them because it was so boring even the story was hard to sit through.
On top of that thereās no way to farm diamonds, everything is maxed out for in trials. The only thing left is the deepspace ones but since Iām at a higher level itās getting harder to complete them when I donāt have certain cards R3.
As a Raf girlie his solo card looks good, but Iām not pulling on it because Iām trying to wait for sylus third myth, but also because the last couple of banners the cards just werenāt good. Hell Zayne third myth sucked imo compared to Xavierās and Rafayels.
I really hope Infold starts listening to the feedback and start updating the story vs throwing out new events every 2 weeks.
To start off, I used to be a big spender in game. From the time of Nightly Rendezvous to about the Spring Banner I spent just a little of $600 in game. Which I was completely fine with one) because I wanted to see how much money it would cost to pull for all 5 LI
two) because there is really no merch to buy in the US, the money I would of spent buying figures I just put into the game.
Now the reason I stopped spending money was because one) I just tired of the endless banners and no real story updates and two) I quit my job so no extra income for me to spend on it.
During this time I realized that the less you spend the more likely you are to get the cards during pulls. For example today with the idol banner, this is a banner Iāve been wanting forever so I allowed myself $50 to spend on said banner. Now normally going into these 5* banners, I have anywhere from 10-30k diamonds saved up. But because of Zayneās and sylus myth and Xavierās birthday. I used up all my diamonds and only have 3k and 5 gold tickets (no including the free 10). So far at 80 pulls and $50 spent, Iāve only gotten Xavierās card. Which is fine since thatās the one I really wanted. I ended up getting him in the first 20, so no money spent.
Normally during these pulls after about 50, I get another 5*. Not this time tho lol. I have 7 pulls left until I hit hard pity.
This is so unusual for me, so let me recap past banners:
Xavier birthday: 60 pulls
Zayneās 3rd Myth: 120 pulls(I lost to Caleb at 60), 150
Zayneās bday: 10 pulls
Summer banner: I wasnāt pulling for it but I got Xavier with the free 10
Xavier 3rd myth: 10, 70, (140got Zayne, I was trying to get the crate and r1)
Wedding banner: this is the last multi banner I actively pulled on. I was pulling purely to get 3 outfit crates as well. 10 sylus, 40(Xavier), 100(Rafayel), 110(Caleb and Zayne) 150(sylus)
I canāt go back to see all of my spring banner but I did get all 5 again.
Now it could be Infold just messing around with pull rates or it could just be that they want you to spend more once you already had. Iām only slightly complaining but I realized that I have pretty good luck in the banners, but I wish there was more ways to farm diamonds. Iām pretty high in all the battle orbits so those arenāt viable ways to farm anymore, the unicorns and Tobias missions I have long since received all the rewards. This is leading to me getting super bored with the game. I donāt mind spending money on the game, but when it becomes a money pit with little rewards incentive thatās when I start having a problem with it.
But idk if anyone else has notice this or itās just Infold messing around like usual.
Granted I donāt I mainly interact with the CN girlies only on XHS, but I just watched the trailer for beach banner over there, and MC carrying Raf is still in the trailer.
So the rumor going around that Infold is taking it out is probably not true. People complaining on both sides are pitting the fandoms against each other. Everyone is posting screenshots and posting and spreading misinformation is creating hatred between cn and global players.
But Iāll keep yall updated if I see any changes. āļø
Will forever hate the fact that some lads players will always ruin the fun for raf girlies. Their dynamic is based on equality, there are no roles for them and that is their charm. Raf carried mc and then it is shown mc carried Raf too. That type of relationship is adorable and admirable. Donāt yāall think that being put off about mc showing her strength and Raf showing vulnerability is rooted in a place where toxic masculinity is still prevalent? Idk, itās just getting annoying now. Thanks for reading about my rant
Iām on my like 3rd Xavier crashout of the week and itās only Tuesday.
Iām like so tired of people including Xavier in hcs and stuff when they clearly donāt give a shit about him.
Like cute thought out headcanons about all the LIs andddd Xavierās asleep.
Or this idea that he canāt do anything because he canāt cook, and a damn near bum because of how broke he is. (News flash he has more money than youād think.)
Like heās not a former prince of a galaxy, the number 1 hunter even though he is constantly having his evol suppressed, has multiple degrees, and a literal rocket scientist.
Oh my gawdddddd.
If youāre going to shit on him JUST LEAVE HIM OUT OF IT.
Itās very obvious heās the least popular love interest but that doesnāt mean you gotta punch his fans while weāre down š.
On the flip side: I love when people say they arenāt super familiar with him and ask for feedback on his characterization. It really shows they are trying to put out quality content and that they are trying fr.
And please stop tagging him when heās not in the post bro.
Iāve been blessed and got all 5 within 110 pulls (sorry raffy I forgot to screenshot yours š) I really just wanted the outfit crates not gonna lie šš
