  1. Found myself a nice weak league to get my first top 4. No AMs used, just 6 sets of 2gin 1co.

  2. I thought last week was a bit exceptional, with the D2-16~30 range being so tight (100 points between 15th and 30th player), but it was actually even worse this week. I placed 16th ~30 minutes before the end of the league, and it's a good thing I checked again ~2 minutes before the end, because I was back to 31st position. 15th player was at 4397, and 30th was at 4354 (Less than 50 points difference). Fortunately, I had just enough time (and fights) to get back to 16th position a few seconds before the end of the week (4395 points). And it held But I didn't realize how competitive the 16-30 bracket was, in D2. I guess many players want to stay away from D3, while still maximizing their gains. Now I want to go to D3 to avoid this last-minute sniping @JustVisitingRebornHow are you doing in D3 these days?

  4. Alright..let me brag about my league results No AM boosters used.. fought 4 boosted players on each account (1 surprising loss on hh (0,03% yay rng ) and 2 losses on nutaku) congratz to @Hugh Jerexion for asserting his dominance in the league 🤣 And gratz to the golden Duck @Chthugha for the casual top 4

  5. Yeah, it was kind of clear that La Kajira would win this one. But I still went ahead and splurged far too many resources for a "guaranteed" top 4. About 1½ AMEs and a fair bit of other boosters were used for this. But what this league was really about for me, was improving the toolset I have for predicting my own score. I feel like I can somewhat even trust the predictions I'm making now about myself, but we'll see. It doesn't take into account the blessings change, of course, and honestly I'm having to scale back the amount of calculations I'm making. It's a delicate balance between a lot of quality data and the game being at all playable, and there was some loss in accuracy from an optimization I made earlier, so I rolled that back and I no longer can reasonably have as many predictions being calculated. If I could find the time, I'd make a separate program that's GPU accelerated for all the number crunching I could desire... until I find ways to waste even that extra computational power somehow. I could have achieved a score of 7349 if I really wanted to. Not that it would have made a difference this time.

  6. ------------------ D3 run #72 2022/01/06-13 Boosters used: 3 legendaries all the time, + about half an AM booster. 102 players. 101 opponents. 303 fights. wins: 299. losses: 4. Average: 21.78 Finished: top 15 Girl Shards: Madame Ivanka (week 5) (already completed) Refills: 563ko Well, I was aiming for "Top 15 and chill" this week, so ending up that close to a Top 4 wasn't a disappointment. But it was a bit surprising. The partial AM booster was a left-over from the previous week, and the few refills were to get rid of it (not too wastefully) so I could start playing KC. Good luck have fun this week, folks. Stay safe!

  7. rarum already posted the screen of our league. La Kajira was out of reach, so I decided to play without AME and seasons this week, almost did 1 1/2 refills, 2 cordy 1 ginseng the whole week. Had to fight 4 boosted players, lost one fight (very bad RNG). Overall i was, 0,097 under expected average. It doesnt matter though. This week looks much better, I should win when I play with AME, but I also might win when I dont, so I might try it this way or maybe with one AME.

  8. Thx. For context: 103 players. 306 fights. wins: 306 . losses: 0 Average: 23.68 (same average as last week 😁). 3cordys all week. No AM. I was helped by the blessings favouring Mythics on Nutaku this week. It's going to be interesting next week when it changes to Leg/Exhibitionist to see if anyone has been saving their green gems for the 5* Legendary girls. Good luck to all.

  9. I know I said that I was going to go for a cheap top 4, but some of you know my situation so I decided to challenge Gogeta anyway, just to see how far off I was now when his P2W advantage is in the works again after the awakening patch (He has a full mythic team at level 750). Why would I save kobans when I won't need them soon anyway ^^ Aaaaand I missed to check the end results... I didn't have time to check the last 3 hours of the league, but I was ahead of him at that point but I knew he had at least 1 guy left, which he must have, as I ended up 2nd. Well, I tried, no one remembers a coward as they say 🤪

  10. Congrats to Zak for his win, also to Luffy (team at 650) placing close to him. I was third with 7219 points and 23,59 average. Top 4 was completed by Cricox tailed by Kamira. No AM boosters. Congrats to all of you in the posts above for your excellent scores. You are improving them every week.

  11. Pretty well, though not comparative to most of the people posting here. The league that ended today was my 4th week. First week finished 54th. Was unhappy about that as it was poorer rewards than D2 16-30. Decided to press on. Improved my strategy and 2nd week was 44th. Happy with that. Third week I finished 33rd, having Awakend to Level 550 in the last 36 hours. 4th week I finished 28th, and could have gained another couple of places had I paid for the 8 refills that I didn't get naturally over the week. Given that I was the lowest level player in my league (started 371, finished 374) and the median was ~90 player levels higher than me I've concluded that while the very top end of D3 is very competitive there are still a lot of players in the D3 bracket that are not playing optimally. And I can still make strategy improvements. It's only in the last 72 hours that I've really realised just how much difference countering Dominances can make (the Pantheon forced that lesson). So I'll be building that into my strategy from this point on, rather than simply going with a one offense and one defence team. That said, I'm still a LONG way off getting close to a top 15 finish. I'd need to gain ~2.5-3 points per fight over the whole week to have a chance at top 15. But I'm still very happy with hitting the top 30 at my level for both ego and reward reasons

  12. Well, it took 400 champion tickets plus natural regen and some Season rewards to reach 2500 in less than a week. And time. So much time. Would not have been possible if I wasn't working from home and could set a 15 minute alarm clock. I do NOT want to go through this every PvE iteration of PoV, but I gave it a shot this time to see how bad it was. Just forget about getting to 6500...

  13. I know this from my times before I go regular to D3. It comes to this because a lot of player won't promote to D3 but want to get most of XP and Koban from the league so they try to end in 30-16. The small gap was normal. @LiliatIt's an old phenomenon and not because players left d3 it's more they feel not strong enough (or playing to casual) fro D3 but didn't want to loose to much.

  14. Update for the past 2 weeks: Orange: +1416 (101) Purple: +1398 (100) Red: +1218 (87) Yellow: +1294 (92) White: +1558 (111) Green: +2164 (154) Blue: +932 (66) Dark: +806 (57) Total for the past 8 weeks: Orange: +7302 (130) Purple: +9062 (162) Red: +6221 (111) Yellow: +6923 (123) White: +6124 (109) Green: +8789 (157) Blue: +5734 (102) Dark: +6659 (119) In total, we're still above 100/Day for all colors (Just barely for blue, with a good margin for everything else). Some things to note for this batch: - We didn't have the Dark/Blue Gems event in these past 2 Weeks (LC), but I've collected most of the gems from Seasons (Still missing 360 Dark and 180 Blue) - I paid all PoV so far, except for the current one. They give 150 Gems for each color, which is slightly more than 10/Day each. A bit less if you can't complete the 2500-6500 range (32 Tiers require <= 2500 Points, 16 tiers require >2500 points). - I didn't spend any pachinko orbs in a long time, except for GPx10 and free MPx1. So, not a lot of gems from there. However, I have a decent stash; which will provide me with at least 6.6k gems when I spend it. That's more than 800 gems for each color (On average) - I spent some time fighting Sylvanus (ED, and I think Classic, white gems), and even more against Edwarda (MD, green+orange gems) - I didn't have any Gems PoP this past week (So less Green/Purple gems than usual) Since the gems drop seem relatively consistent (a lot of week-to-week variation, but we still find pretty much the same long-term trends, with lots of Green/Purple, and not too many Blue/Dark), I'll probably stop posting results for a while (At least until we see new gems events or other significant changes). Regarding the strategy, I'm on my way to lvl 600. I still lack a few yellow and blue gems (Surprise, surprise...), but more than that, I need XPPP I should have 60 lvl 550 girls by the end of the month, and a decent amount of lvl 600 L/M girls sometime in March. With all the PXP we get from PoV (+15 levels in 1 month), I'll probably be able to reach D3 earlier than expected. I think I'll try it once I reach the lvl 600 cap (So, probably once I get the next League girl, after Ivanka, in 4 or 5 weeks)

  15. Another week in D3, started at level 442, finished at level 445. Here is the screenshot taken 5 minutes before the end. Final rank: 8th Boosters used : 18 legendaries (1 cordycep / 2 gingseng 6 times). 0 mythic. 103 players -> 102 opponents -> 306 possible fights -> 306 fights performed -> 302 wins and 4 losses I didn't expect a top 4 this week, so I played without mythic booster to get a prety easy top 15 Take care.

  18. Without the contest yesterday I hadn't reached this score today: I will go to 6250 Points at least because I want the kisses for KC. To reach this goal I have to spend every day at least 95 tickets, all combativity and worship from natural regen, PoV and Season. This PoV is to 🤮 Not that I have to spend the combativity and the worship, the amount of tickets to reach the last step with kisses is heavy (and if I hadn't storaged more than 2000 before the start of PoV...) I fear the next PoV...

  23. What Bolitho said. It's been like this in D2 for a long time. A lot of players there are easily strong enough to promote, but (feel) too weak to compete in D3. So they play the D2 Top 30 usual dance: extract as much XP as possible, without being the sucker who goes a few points too far [Edit: and then has to miss out on all of the XP the following week in order to demote back to D2]. Here's a screenshot from the last D2 I ever played, back in August 2020: It wasn't the first time that happened to me either, and back then I had a whole system with a full set of the crappiest equipment imaginable so I could play all my fights and not miss out on XP. But that one was the last straw for me and I just stayed in D3 ever since, first and foremost so I wouldn't have to deliberately underperform ever again.

  24. Where are those people? I haven't noticed a lot of them on the forum. There might be a lot of them on Discord, or in your club chat or other places. But It seems that here at least, most of us here agree PoV has an even higher value than PoA (which is still the second best value in the game). About value being subjective, that's a semantics argument (that I've notably experienced with Blaa in the game economy thread). Some people use it to express a somewhat or even a completely subjective preference, but the term "value" in economy is objective. And you're doing maths on it in this thread, so it's a safe bet you have that sense of the term in mind. Yop. PoA (the good and perfectly balanced version) just feels good. It's well established, you know what to expect, you can plan for it. On top of that, it's the last even of the month, and its arrival often signals a "phew! we made it!" brief moment of relatively relaxed gameplay compared to the over-packed schedule of the rest of most months. PoV is all over the place in terms of how difficult, tedious or even feasible it is from one set of Objectives to the next. That's true and what I'm about to say about PoV is unrelated, apart from the ability to pick and choose your rewards. It's simply a poor UI design issue, but I find it pretty annoying that PoV has one Claim button per line of rewards. For instance, for the 200 points milestone, if I want those 4 books ASAP, I need to refrain from buying the extra path before I've claimed them, otherwise clicking "Claim" will also give me the Kisses and Gems automatically. And if I want to claim the Gems but save up the Kisses, it's just not an option. PoA used to be closer to this, but in its current form you can claim rewards from either paths whenever you want. That's a plus for PoA right now. ------------- Edit: Almost forgot. PoV loses quite a lot of value for players who already reached max player level. Of course, players who are already level 500 are a lot more likely to be able to afford both anyway, so a lot of them probably don't mind either way. But it's worth noting that a lot of PoV's value has an expiry date, and the later you've started the game, the more valuable that extra XP is.

  25. I decided not to even submit a poll response since the limitations on the pages was way too restrictive, and the end result didn't really reflect my opinions at all. There were some pages where I couldn't select all the girls I liked, and other pages where I was forced to select girls that I dislike because it wouldn't let me proceed without making more selections. The worst offender is Bunny's extended family, which I feel is over-represented as it stands and really would prefer to see some other girls get the spotlight (Bunny and Lupa already comprise 3 of the 14 existing mythics), and it forced me to select 4 of them.

  26. Player stats (from the market) and equipment (... from the market as well) still count for approximately 50% of your overall strength (Down from ~66% before awakening). So, definitely something to consider. That's a very good reason, too

  31. Update for January 4th-11th: Purple (Voyeur): 11045->12492 (+1447) Green (Exhibitionist): 8283->9453 (+1170) White (Submissive): 6650->7815 (+1165) Blue (Sensual): 5611->6612 (+1001) Yellow (Playful): 5871->6848 (+977) Dark (Dominatrix): 5488->6398 (+910) Red (Eccentric): 6556->7394 (+839) Orange (Physical): 5645->6257 (+622) This includes the 1000wetdreams code, many of the seasons rewards, and about 50 mythic orbs were spent (didn't get any of the girls, unfortunately) but even after accounting for those factors this week's haul has been very, very good. I've been grinding Sake and her drop rate has been cooperative, and PoP has been quite generous for everything in rotation. I have not been buying PoV, as I anticipate having to spend copious amounts of kobons on shop refreshes, and I feel there's a 50% chance next month's mythic will be Voyeur so I want to be ready to grab her. In terms of proceeding up to level 650, all I need to collect now is 1500 more Eccentric gems. I've already built up some healthy stockpiles in many gem categories, but there are others where I'll need to collect significantly more to upgrade even a single girl up to level 650 once that becomes available to me. The biggest obstacle is girl experience. I now have about 665k in GXP stockpiled, thanks in part to PoV providing a large influx of books. I also have the 40k mythic book reward coming up very shortly in seasons. Still, this still isn't enough just to get the 70 girls up to level 600 that I need, and I'll have enough gems to take several up to level 650 immediately so I will need even more GXP on top of that. In order words, I'm going to need to spend a lot of kobons on market refreshes. My apologies to anyone who ends up in my bracket on day 4 of Legendary Contests. The overall long-term drop rate trends are starting to become obvious, though I am very concerned about Submissive gems. I have been grinding Sake with very few breaks since the gem system was first introduced, and Submissive gems are barely above average. While Sensual and Dominatrix have erratic income, they really aren't doing much worse than Playful and Eccentric. However, Physical is clearly lagging behind. Seasons battles just don't reward enough.

  33. I never had that dilemma, I went straight to the upper leagues as soon as they opened, including D3, and back then I was not one of the strongest players, but I preferred trying my best than having to restrain my efforts. It is very rewarding seeing how you slowly improve your results week after week. I am doing the same in CxH now and even not being very strong and never boosted I am standing my ground.

  38. I used to look at converting everything to Koban values, but I realized that was a bad idea for me personally, as a free player. Kobans are so scarce I don't spend them except to get either girls or more Kobans, and both the PoA & PoV count. However, since Sandalwood Perfume costs Kobans to buy, it makes sense that that is converted. Combativity could work like that, but it also freely regenerates. Both paths have their uses for me, and I basically agree with your rationale.

  42. The so called Path of Valor (as well as most of the newest "features") gives a perfect example of a game being developed without a beta testing cycle. We see ideas being promoted which are contrary to the basic game lore (i.e. date rape). We discover game mechanics which are dysfunctional (i.e. the slider bar which still requires a kludge work-around for many players). And, as many have pointed out, we see game imbalances which should be obvious to anyone playing the game as a beta tester. The test server is, at best, a concept test site which rightly belongs to the alpha group while the game we are playing is the true beta site. It shouldn't be a shock to find players who come to play a game are upset to discover they are being asked to pay for the development of the game. Nor should it be unreasonable for free players to be upset to discover this game they are playing is in a state of flux as features change almost monthly.

No in all honesty..there are few really helpful topics/posts on the forum about league (as well as the script) I´d recommend you check those out (if you haven´t already). You might be surprised how much you can improve your league performance Also if there are any questions you can obviously ask in the Q and A section, I´m sure someone in the community will be able to help you with those So a good change since it makes your work for the script easier ? @45026831 if so this might by a great patch afterall I mean what would we all be without people like numbers ?

  47. I spent most of the initial 3000 gems on day 1, to awaken beyond lvl 400, and then I started collecting numbers. So, all values are for the past 4 weeks (11/19 to 12/16). If I include the 3000 gems, it looks like this (Approximately): Orange: -2852 Purple: -1998 Red: -2205 Yellow: -6750 White: -2690 Green: -4450 Blue: -2795 Dark: -4490 (There are some weird values in there, so I probably acquired a few extra gems during the first awakening, before properly collecting data). And with these values, we can really see which elements I'm still missing It's worth noting that I still have a stack of ~180 Orbs (M+E) waiting for the next relevant contest, so that will give a good boost to my stack of gems (> 5000) ; which will be very welcome since I'm about to break the lvl 500 cap (In a week or so). In the past 2 weeks, we always had running Villains events; so I've not chosen villains based on gems color. I've fought Donatien (Dark) for Finalmecia, Sylvanus? (White) for Rosana, and now Karole (Green). I can't fight Pandora, Nike or Sake yet (So I don't have access to a reliable source of yellow gems from Villains; Dark lord is the only one atm). I also play exclusively F2P, skipping the paid path for PoA. I will take the paid PoV path (either this one or the next, we'll see), but not yet, so I didn't include any gems from there. Tbh, I don't know where all these yellow gems come from I don't really have yellow PoP, I don't fight yellow villains, and the only other sources are Daily Missions and random sources (Pachinko, ...). But I'm not complaining, since I have at least a million of playful girls to awaken.

  48. Here's where I stand (counting everything other than the initial 3000). I have not unlocked any of the kobon paths in PoA or PoV in this time (my kobons are going towards shop refreshes, but levelling up after level 500 is expensive), nor have I purchased any bundles: Orange (Physical): 3137 (112) Purple (Voyeur): 6116 (218) Red (Eccentric): 4200 (150) Yellow (Playful): 3695 (131) White (Submissive): 3177 (113) Green (Exhibitionist): 5292 (189) Blue (Sensual): 3214 (114) Dark (Dominatrix): 3668 (131) Total accrued: 32499 (1160/day) So we're definitely seeing some huge divergences. I've accumulated almost 5000 more gems than you in total, but our distributions are completely different. You've actually accrued more Playful (yellow), Sensual (Blue), and Dominatrix (Dark) gems than me. I have a modest lead in Eccentric (Red) but most of my advantage is coming from Voyeur and Exhibitionist (Purple and Green) where I am way ahead. And that's pretty much entirely on the backs of Places of Power, which has been a gold mine (gem mine?) and is by far the most generous with those two colors. Places of Power is where the vast majority of my overall gem income comes from. Part of this could be the change to villain drop rates, and which villain you're farming can make a huge difference. It used to be that all villains dropped Playful and Eccentric (Yellow and Red) gems, but now each villain drops a different type of gem. I know my progress with Playful (Yellow) gems has ground to a complete stop since this change, and it's quickly becoming one of the rarest gem types for me. I've still got to get Estelle from Pandora and all these awakenings have made me strong enough that I don't have to worry about losing to her anymore, so maybe I'll farm her after orgy days ends (although I do want to clean out Sake before the next world opens and I'm a long ways away from that) Edit: So overall from my experience, Voyeur (Purple) is by far the most common with Exhibitionist (Green) in a very distant second, then Eccentric (Red) in a very distant third from there. Playful and Dominatrix (Yellow, and Dark) are fairly common, while Physical, Sensual, and Submissive (Orange, Blue, and White) are trailing the pack. You haven't even spent the initial 3000 gift yet? My total spend is as follows: Orange (Physical): -5150 (1 common to level 600, 4 legendaries and 1 common to level 550) Purple (Voyeur): -8975 (4 legendaries to level 600; 6 commons to level 550) Red (Eccentric): -6300 (1 legendary to level 600; 1 legendary, 1 epic, 1 rare, and 7 commons to level 550) Yellow (Playful): -6150 (1 mythic to level 600; 2 legendary and 2 commons to level 550; 1 legendary and 1 rare to level 500) White (Submissive): -4900 (1 legendary to level 600; 2 legendary and 5 common to level 550) Green (Exhibitionist): -7275 (1 legendary, 1 epic, and 1 common to level 600; 3 legendary, 1 rare, and 3 common to level 550) Blue (Sensual): -5550 (1 legendary to level 600; 1 legendary, 2 rare, and 4 common to level 550; 2 rare to level 500) Dark (Dominatrix) -6200 (1 mythic and 1 legendary to level 600; 1 legendary, 2 rares, and 3 commons to level 550) All of these girls were grandfathered to at least level 401. You can see that on Playful and Sensual (Yellow and Blue) I've abandoned further awakenings on girls that it's become clear that I cannot afford, since these gems just aren't common enough. Meanwhile I'm very quickly running out of things to spend Voyeur gems on, and if the current income keeps up I'm just going to be stockpiling them. I may have enough of a stockpile to justify picking up a Mythic girl and getting her caught up with the rest of my harem. I'm still a long ways to level 650, and will probably require at least another 20k more gems before I'm up there. Likely more since the distribution is lopsided and I'm running out of girls for certain categories.
