meanwhile in game customer support be like

college beauty mio is the new girl that will stay in the pachinko pool.

Yes, true, my comment was something more like "that would be the bare minimum investment required if you're scoring top 50 consistently to get to the second girl, and it is a lot. To score top 50 consistently is still not enough"

A consistently top 50 ranker gets from natural regen+ rankin rewards up to 15882 crystals, 11k+ crystals from the second girl, they basically need to score an MD comparable amount of points every three days (at least, probably more, since I did all my MD fights, while this mega bullshit was already live, and i used the saved kisses from season and big card without managing to stay in the top 50 the first day). Champion tickets surely help, so platinum/diamond card holders for the win, but I honestly do not know how much manageable is in the long run

Yep, it's kind of like the game gets stunned *badum tss* Jokes aside, yes, it happened to me as well. At first I thought it was a problem with how the game process these new heavily tested new skills (for me the first time it freezed after the stun ended, with a crit by the pantheon squad, that would have definitely killed me if it wasn't for the stun skill). Then it happened again in non critical moments ( @Horsting had the same thought process I had but much earlier. Note to self: read the comments in the topic till the end next time)

If they told that more tierS are to come (with 5 listed but not present at the moment of the feature release), I'd expect at least a tier 6 to come to bother our lives, sooner or later. If you have forbidden knowledge and you can assure us that tier 6 skills are not and won't ever be a thing, I can only thank you for sharing that info with us and then God for having mercy on our mortal souls

Tier V skills weren't exactly a "mods secret", since they were inside the ingame info panel of the skill feature when this yet another layer of nightmarish micromanagement extravaganza was still confined in the test server, and it stayed there when the feature came alive. that said, about tier 6 skills, the original patch note does say that "more tiers are to come"

yay~!

I honestly doubt it: had they really raised the x100 lucky shot chances they probably would have told us, even just as a form of valuable "damage control statement" to hit back and calm down the wave of negative feedback they are receiving. On personal experience, I can say my last lucky 100 previous to this was on Alt. Mala, a permanent pool girl, at the end of august (so quite recent indeed). Before that I got Lapis back in march, and I did not have a lucky 100 drop for quite some time before Lapis' @garadronhas a fair point.

Limona apparently did not agree with my plans for her. Well, a nice way to celebrate level 500, I guess

I actually kind of agree with @garadron, here. The second girl of the LR is out of reach unless you whale hard. Of the four actually valuable rewards inbetween the two girls, the first one (the six legendary bulbs) should be fairly approachable by any dedicated player that takes part in at least one between MD, LD or MDR and doesn't ignore completely the champion fights, the second one (the event pachinko orbs) could be achievable with a bit of extra effort and extra kobans investment (I'd say that an EvP orb isn't worthy of the required effort and kobans expense, but that is mine opinion), and the last couple of valuable rewards (mythic bulbs and MyPx3 orb) are whale gated exactly like the second girl is. Not using SPs during MD/MDR/LD to snatch a little more crystals while refilling CPs for a "good cause" is definitely more valuable in SE than it is in LR. That said I only kind of agree with Garadron because I usually use SP on mythics only 😂 to go back on track with the actual topic, I had Imogen at 20 shards, and I brought her to 43. Next step will be to bring Limona to 40+ shards as well. After that, my priority will shift back to Imogen: while I like Limona's art more than Imogen's, knowing that Limona has the new "light" scenes is a huge turn off. A second point in Imogen's favour, she is with Jackson: fight for her shards would mean fighting for Balista's 22 shards I still miss, too, and it would also mean getting closer to unlocking his tier III as well

In the long run that 1 x10^-15% could be gamechanging

This new format is part of the Mega Event family. Since girls from Seasonal Events (which are also part of the ME fam) are spared from the lazy 2-scenes-with-zoom-action treatment, it should be safe to assume that those in Lusty Race (and Hot Assembly next month) have full scenes as well. But then again, consistency isn't KK's forte...

Apparently, if you get 1 point (or more) before opening the Mega event tab and ranking, it does not award you with those two ranking rewards. Also, crystals awarded via ranking seems to not being counted towards the next ranking (crystals obtained with ranking CPs do). Not sure if it is intended or part of the same bug that prevent getting rewards, though EDIT: It is a bug as well.

For a f2p spending 15,6K kobans for one L5 girls is pure madness. In SE the third girl requires a similar expense of kobans + the cost of the two cards (without the 1k crystals gift), but that cost is somewhat mitigated by the fact that you can spend those kobans in CP refills to get other girls during MD, LD and MDR. Here it is the raw cost of one L5 girl (two for the whales)

"Mega Event" is the umbrella term, and it refers to Seasonal Event, Lusty Race (this current one) and Hot Assembly (next month I guess)

(sorry for the double post) The premium path has exactly double the rewards of the "free" path, with the only exception being the legendary chocolates awarded by reaching a total amount of crystal of 26250 (LOL), where the free path gives out 4 of them and the premium path only 6. Those in the next image are all the rewards in the premium path only (as I said, If you want to know what the free path offers, divide these rewards by two. Legendary chocolates in the free path are 9 in total, truly gamechanging). As I already said, green gems appears as a reward only one time, for no good apparent reason other than they completely forgot about them. In the first column there are the rewards up to the first girl milestones (7200 crystals); in the second column there are the rewards between the two girls milestones (7200 - 27000 crystals); in the third column there are the rewards for those who'll manage to go after the second girl milestone and reach the very end of the event As you can see, totally worthy of 15,6K kobans to be spent on top of the kobans and effort one should invest to reach any milestone. /s

I was taking note of the rewards, to quantify what they consider to be 15,6 kobans worthy as a pass and have a laugh, and I found out something. Not that it really matters, since I don't know how far past the first girl non-heavy-kobans-spender players will be able to go, but they completely forgot about adding green gems as a reward after the first cycle of the 8 colours (that ends way before the first girl, at 3150 crystals). Between the two girls rewards, there are 3 cycles of gem rewards, awarding 135 gems in total in the free path and 270 in total in the paid path (so 405 in total) for every gem colour but the green ones. The fact that the mythic girl this month was a green one, too, makes it even more hilarious Should I write a ticket to support and tell them? Nah, I don't care enough

In the first pose of the club champion they are basically detached from her body. to the point she bacame infamous, a bad meme (the fact that original kanako's poses aren't exactly top otch quality for sure didn't help. just kind what happened with Natasha back in the days), and it probably sticked to her even in this new version of her, even if it is undoubtedly way better than the CC version

Aren't them all from Legendary days?

In a sense, this new event is rich in horror vibes. Halloween came earlier this year

Thank you, I was definitely too short in goats to be able to face that shit next month

Can't wait to see what the third seasonal bullshit-like event format will ask us to do next month. Probably to sacrifice a goat to kinkoid divinities for a chance to get 10 shards of a girl

Oh gosh. The omega bullshit was so big I didn't even realize the icon you initially posted here wasn't the icon of the new crystal, but a completely different unknown currency 😭 @SpectralCalmI'm currently 5000+ in the top rankings leaderboard, so I'd say it is from all players

21600 are just from the crystal rewards rankings, though. If you add the 3930 crystals base ground (free kisses and CPs + daily chests, champions not included), they reach 25530 crystals. Also, Top ranking awards CPs, too. 160 for the first place: 160 x9 =1440, + 25530 = 26970, which are basically way more than 27k+ considering extra rewards from paths, cards, leagues season AND champion fights. If you are able to consistently sit in the two top spots in the top ranking leaderboard, this event is a breeze
