I still have to disagree. It's not a "little" faster when you can spend 5k Kobans for every girl. I don't care about PVP, the leauges or whatever. I only collect girls and follow the story. I almost play for 2 years now and I got a lot of girls without paying a single koban (atleast 85/91 of my girls). I have to admit that we only have seen 2 and 1/4 events with the the new system, but I wasn't very lucky. I got 60 shards for Val Abrael, playing like always. I already had Val Red Battler, but my point is that I wouldn't even have the chance to get her in this event. Idk, maybe I'm just unlucky now, but I still think the old system was better regarding this point.
In the last couple of months I started to invest kobans for 10x perfomances, because the old system was less "smooth". Atleast this is better now. Anyway, i don't complain about my drop rates in the past. i don't need every girl. But most of the time I could get atleast one (I talk about the normal 12 days events and epic days). I will see how much luck I have next month.
Epic Days: i doubt I will get one girl (or even two) out of it now. I just can't collect enough shards in 4 days without investing kobans (except I have the luck of my life I guess).
Legendary Days: They were always hit or miss. Got atleast 3 of 6 girls and that's ok. I didn't play much during this event, so I can't really talk about it.
Well this works. But only one time in like 6 months. i wouldn't have a lot kobans for a long time. I have the feeling I have to this for every girl now.
@Master Blaster I agree, having the same feeling.
My point: i don't see how the new system helps me. It maybe helps to get one girl, but that's all of it. Event with 2 girls (or more) are probably impossible without paying for kobans. The old system was far from perfect, but I have the feeling the lucky part was better than now and was less of a grind. As I said I don't care about PvP, just collecting girls.
