    HOW is that fair game? If I get something so often for free, that I NEVER have to pay to get it, it makes no frigging sense to use the cost I NEVER HAVE TO PAY for a cost analysis, IF the other items can ONLY be paid for?
    You are comparing apples to oranges.

    These boosters aren't actually free.  They're a product of mythic orbs that you're getting your PoPs, which cost over 5K kobans a piece to fully upgrade.  I.e. players invested these kobans to get the advertised return.  Kinkoid's problem is that they think they've given too good of a deal and are trying to change the terms of the original agreement after the transaction has already been made.

    Lol. When did you have to actually pay kobans for boosters the last time?
    For months, I have gotten more than enough boosters simply by using the Mythic Orbs that drop from activities and other rewards.
    That's why I wrote "replacing it with slots for boosters you can only get through kobans and no other way," because while yes, in the shop you always had to pay Kobans for boosters, you could and still can easily obtain the non-mythic boosters through other ways.

    Regardless of whether you're actually buying non-mythic boosters, Kinkoid values them at 90 kobans piece so it's fair game to use that price in a cost analysis.

    In any case, mythic boosters of the same type don't stack according to the patch notes so the cost of staying competitive in PvP has "only" gone up by a factor of around 1.5 stead of a factor of 3.

  3. Boosters were always koban only, but, assuming you can stack mythic boosters of the same type, this change ups the cost to stay competitive in PVP from 360 per day to 1080 per day.  Combined with the combat changes that tempt you to whale for every mythic girl, I'm either at or nearly at the point where I'll just quit this game.

    It is referring to xp that you can get in some of the bundles that are purchased with real-life money. They are trying to avoid accusations of the game being pay-to-win.

    Huh?  If they want to do that, they'd also need to exclude orbs, combativity, tickets, and kisses obtained from bundles and kobans from contests.

    (Not to mention, I don't recall ever seeing XP in a bundle.)

    Yeah I wish people would pay attention to patch notes.

    Pfft.  I'm here to look at hentai, not read.  Unless it's in Spanish, which I'm trying to learn.  Occasionally, this forum has given me a glimpse into how Spanish is spoken colloquially, only for the mods to quickly close the thread.  The Spanish speakers really need their own forum like we have for French ... and Italian.

  6. I noticed today that that one star girls don't even have bios after you upgrade them.  So not only are they useless in orgy teams and champion battles, they aren't even very entertaining.  I give the feature a D- since you can at least pad your harem level and score in the Harem-building contest by leveling them.

    Nothing like spending a bunch of kobans wastefully and getting rewarded with above-average luck to really drive home how pointless that spending was.

    On top of that,  I've got to imagine that doing 1200-1600 fights in rapid succession is boring and tedious even with the 10x option.  They may as well just give us the option to buy mythic girls for 14K kobans and be done with it.

    Already used 100 CP and only got 11 shards.   Decided "Nope" and cut my losses right there.  Had better luck on Legendary Girls.  Much better.

    Data so far suggests that it takes 1200 - 1600 CP to get this one.  So you actually had a bit of a lucky streak.

    Honestly, the only big hurdle I see is pvp. If it was pvp fights performed, no problem. But how do I guarantee enough beatable targets unless I am at the very bottom (where abandoned defenseless wimps topple over just from being looked at) or the very top (where there is no longer risk of being matched with 100% players way above my power level)?

    Sorry, when I was giving you PvP advice, I didn't realize you just started this week.  You shouldn't seriously chase after events for the first month or two.  Leagues are a big source of XP, so be sure to spend your condoms but don't expect to win much.  Certainly, don't waste resources on boosters yet.  You won't get much return on them for a while.

    For a lower level player, legendary boosters will give less than epic.

    You do have a point.  As a level 304 player running 4/6 pieces of equipment as single stat, I get about the same amount of secondary and tertiary stats from epic and legendary boosters and twice as much primary stat from the legendary.  I guess at level 200, the balance would be in favor of epic boosters.

    However, mythic pachinko gives only legendary boosters.

    That girl is gated behind another 30 "defeat players in pvp". I need to increase my stats by something like 20% or 40%.

    (and the mission after that is to spend more money than I can have at that point anyway, unless I throw money at the problem)

    Keep in mind that pvp includes seasons, which may have easier opponents than your league.  Also, you can increase your stats by either 24% or 26.2% (not sure whether the bonus is additive or multiplicative) by using 4 legendary ginseng roots.  You can be rest assured that most of your opponents will be using boosters.

    Of course, to help keep myself boosted with ginseng roots, I have a platinum card and 3 maxed out PoPs (more mythic orbs = more chances to win boosters in mythic pachinko).  Having these things is more a matter of spending money than old vs. new.

    Then again, an important factor in winning the top leagues is character level, and that is determined by how long you've been playing.

    So you can say that the game puts some stumbling blocks before new players and others before f2p.  If you're both, I'm sure its going to suck if you want to compete.  If you're one or the other, you can do OK but you won't reach the top.

    Bonus hint:  There's a UI mod that's allowed by Kinkoid:

    Except that the original creator no longer maintains the script.  You can find the current version here:

  12. Huh.  What's the point of having so many events per month now that we have this one we'll need to horde the bulk of our kobans for?  At this point, my spending will go down on average because I'll have to consider whether any given expenditure will cause me to miss out on a mythic girl that will increase my competitiveness in the leagues.

    She's not charming with her attitude/personality.
    She hates pain and to be ordered around, so she's definitely not hardcore either.
    She is a goddess, a very dumb one, but a goddess non the less, so it makes sense that know-how, while not fitting, is still the best choice.

    But all of this should be disregarded and thrown out the window as this is a PARODY and who Nero is has next to nothing to do with Aqua.
    Aqua is from the Konosuba universe, and Nero is from the Haremverse, it's like comparing DC's Batman with Marvel's Ironman.

    Aqua is hard-core in her devotion to stupidity.   I originally wanted to go with simply hard-core stupid, but I decided to be a bit generous by adding charming idiot.  It's even justified in a couple of ways. Her party tricks are a hit with a crowd so you could say she is charming during her performances.  She also has her fans both in real life and in-universe so she does have a certain charisma with some people.

    There's not an ounce of "know-how" in her though.  Luna even states explicitly that Aqua's intelligence stat is among the lowest she has ever seen.

    Parody works by exaggerating a work's traits.  It can't be too different or it becomes an entirely new work rather than a parody.

    DC and Marvel weren't parodying each other per se.  They were simply in fierce competition to sell comics from the 1950's to 1970's and copied each other's ideas that proved popular.

    I'm pretty sure they meant 2^32 and 2^64, because the number was stored as a binary number. With the change to 64bit the maximum would be 1.8*10^19 Ymen. So there is still a limit, but its hard to reach :D   

    To make everything explicit, they increased the limit from 2^32 (32 bits) to 2^64 (64 bits).  2^32 = 4,294,967,296 which is just shy of 4.3 billion (abbreviated as 4.3G in some countries).  2^64 = 18,466,744,073,709,551,616 or just shy of 18.5 thousand trillions.

    The only way to to reach this later limit is to hack the game or hoard ymens for 1,073,741,824 years (assuming that the current limit can be reached in three months). Therefore, there is no practical limit for legitimate gameplay unless human lifespans dramatically increase and humanity either colonizes other planets or ensures that earth remains habitable even as the sun increases in luminosity as it ages.

    Any questions?

    It's, of course, great that "it won't happen again" and I even believe it a bit. Except I think you should do something about this "new Shina" anyway. It's just that when I compare them, I have bloody tears coming out of my eyes. You can't leave that in the game, it's just beyond good and evil. It is like mocking, like spitting in the face, even the notorious Natasha can be perceived with humor, but there is no excuse for this horror.

    Physicist Shina must've botched her cloning experiment.  Should've stuck with her specialty. SMH.
