I've been online for all the refreshes thus far. For both the first and second, the 75,000 shards were depleted in around 45 minutes from the refresh. As of right now, less than 10 minutes after the 3rd refresh, 15,000 shards are gone already.

Lag didn't noticibly pick up until the last 20 seconds or so. I went to pachinko screen with 40 seconds remaining in contest intending to spend 10 orbs before the end, could only get through 9.

It's months of banking up free orbs that got me to 660k points, could have gone to 800k if I needed to. But yeah, that's the trouble if you don't know this BS event is coming.

Damn, 1.2 M points to win? That's Venezuela, making it a 7 am reset time for him, guess he couldn't be on that early and wanted to be sure.

2 epic x10 orbs from the last PoA and 49 single orbs (would have been 50 but lagged out in the last seconds) got me first place, glad I don't have to worry about stupid legendary contests for a while. And the 49 single orbs got me 2 girls. The German guy in 4th got bumped down to 5th when I made my play, luckily for him he was online and noticed, and got some more points. Sucks to be the American who finished in 5th, who got bumped down from 3rd.

Managed to get Sai at just under 5k kobans spent. I really should stop spending kobans on legendary days taht don't match my class. Before this event, I did not have Ninja Spy at tier 3, I now have 90 shards towards his tier 3 girl. Thankfully had F&F from a previous release.

My free spin + 39 single orbs just got me junk. I spent a lot of my multi-orbs a few days ago when tanned Cunegonde was the only girl available to me in the rotation. I have 5 3-orbs left, if only Fabienne was in the rotation for me I'd spend them and max her out with kobans, but unfortunately I don't have this Kimie variant either.

Have you tried fighting different bosses? Which boss(es) have you been fighting?

I'm doing pretty well. No additional kobans spent. I managed to finish off task 5 yesterday, had to stay up late to do it, but it let me spend ~90 banked energy into task 6 without wasting any in between energy tasks. I'll have task 6 completed in 2.5 hours. I'm holding the free 10 combats and 2 from yesterday's contest until I'm at task 10. I expect to have task 10 at least halfway two thirds done by the end of the day without claiming any rewards.

Almost every girl gives 1397/h at 3 stars or 3411/h at 5 stars. The difference between girls payout is just how much time must pass before she's ready to payout. This girl pays out 5588 in 4 hours, Kimie pays out 9779 in 7 hours, Arcana pays out 11176 in 8 hours. But all are 1397/h. The girls that have a different rate are Bunny, Juliette, Red Battler, Ankyo and Agate.

I think you guys are all misconstruing my point. I will easily be able to play great pachinko enough to get garbage equipment to sell without having to dip into any of my reserves. I will still be able to easily complete the spend money tasks. My issue is that alot of that money spent is wasted. If the spend money task came before the sell items task, I would be spending maybe half as much money. I could sell my stash of gifts and books as a way of avoiding spending money on great pachinko, but then those items are wasted. The nature of the event necessitates SOME wasteful usage of resources, whether it's cash or grey gifts/books. But re-ordering the tasks would cause LESS wasteful usage.

I have 30ish equipment. I foolishly thought that would be enough.

I'm on Jackson's Crew so I'm getting piles of books. But again I don't want to sell my stash. I don't mind spending on great pachinko for trash to sell, I just wish I could get that spending counted to another task.

Do you not use them? Once I hit 50 of an item I spam click offer until I'm down to 15ish.

Selling affection items is a bit counter-productive, since buying them is always a major expenditure. I have a nice stash: But I'm still going to go to great pachinko rather than start selling even the flowers.

The one change I'd make to this event is the order of the tasks. It requires us to sell items, then spend money, then do champion fights, which is the exact reverse order it should be in. The tasks I'll have trouble with most are selling items, I'll have to spend a boatload in great pachinko. Too bad it'll be hard/impossible to get it counted towards the spending cash task. It would be better to do champion fights gaining cash, then spend that cash in pachinko, then sell the accumulated items.

180 energy = 22.5 hours, 250 energy = 33.75 hours. But there's a prize of 125 energy down the path, so you won't have to wait that full amount. Have you actually reached the 180 energy task (6)? Because my plan was to only get tasks 1-4 done today and let the 40 combativity in task 5 and 180 energy in task 6 mostly accumulate simultaneously overnight, not claiming my already won prizes until I need them further down the path.

The trouble with that is you're treating the price as if it were the value. In my opinion, energy, tickets and great orbs have no value. Combativity has very little value when there are no event girls on bosses. Mythic multi-orbs do have value, but not as much as their price. That said, I do think the pay-to-unlock side of rewards are well worth the price, just not as wildly valuable as the table suggests.

Wow I hadn't even noticed the epic multi-orbs at first. 7 girls total.

All the mythic multi-orbs combined add up to 110 shards. So effectively its 5 girls for 7200 kobans. Pretty good.

Well I'm pretty happy with the event so far.

34 shards for the whole event. Kinda disappointing.

Beach Samane is the girl I most want from this, I've always been curious how she's considered charm since Samane is the least charming girl ever in the story. And she's on the boss I want to farm out anyway, which is good. Let's just hope the drop rate is better.

I was intending on showing the pointlessness of luring people to the social media sites. My actual issue is a private matter, and likely a unique one. But suffice it to say if the codes are only on facebook or twitter, they may as well be completely inaccessible to me.

94 fights, 6 shards.
