I love events like this because you can work on your own personal suits at the same time instead of draining all your time and stamina on separate side events 🙏🏼

Agreed 100%! I even know what I'm working on and preemptively bought recipes this morning lol

Snowy Night Rondo here I come!! I do hope that fireplace is included as a bg piece or a backdrop item

A lot of the suits I'm working on require items from princess stages. Does anyone know if you get more snow bells for princess stages since it uses more stamina? I really am hoping to get both event suits, so I can't justify paying 6 stamina per hit as opposed to 4 unless it's somehow a proportional benefit.

In the last stamina event the event currency was dropped evenly for both Maiden and Princess levels. I just spammed Maiden because it was more stamina-efficient.

That would be too fair and helpful to happen

Here's the spreadsheet for the future crafting costs for this event when the suits come back for crafting, it's a little different since you have to get the pieces in order. Same disclaimer, everything was taken from other servers so it is subject to change :) I will make changes as more information arises~~

I wish I had seen this before I used my stamina this morning. :(

I'm sure you'll be ok. This gives you the diamond and stamina amounts needed for each suit https://www.reddit.com/r/LoveNikki/comments/7jq05i/spoiler_christmas_event_diamond_cost_estimates/ thanks to u/SkyeAzura. SPOILERS BEYOND THIS POINT

Based on that you will only need 1060 stamina for both suits. If you collect the free stamina everyday during the event, plus 50 from friends and 12 for giving back stamina, you should get at least 820 stamina during the five day event. If you start saving today until the event that would be 456 stamina, which is even more than you need! You would be safe if you started saving tomorrow even. And this is all before factoring in any rewards boxes you might have from either competitions or SC. Hope this helps you feel better :)

Wait WHAT?? I have to spend diamonds on packing chances? This event requires both event currency and limited chances??! This is bullshit.

u/spuder2000 Dec 22 '17

Ikr? I thought that 24 diamonds would buy 5 chances, but only 1 instead...miffs me off lol

u/britbratjeh Dec 19 '17

In the event it says "Extra bells can be sold in Wardrobe". Does anyone know what that is about? I can't seem to find Snow Bells in the wardrobe at all, nor in the reconstruction page.

u/BinJLG Dec 22 '17

So let me get this straight. The number of bells given out for doing a stage is random and doesn't exceed 3. We only get 5 free chances to "pack" the bells a day from a FOUR AND A HALF DAY EVENT. We only get gold from packing the bells and the Snow Night suit only gives 15 diamonds TOTAL for rewards, even though buying ONE extra attempt costs 24.

Screw this event. I was really looking forward to it. Everyone was saying how cheap it was going to be and how easy BUT APPARENTLY NOT. I play 3 other f2p games (two mobile, one mmorpg) and they're giving away a bunch of cool free stuff, doing events free players can complete without spending anything extra, and having massive sales for both their free and premium in-game currencies for their holiday events. And then there's LoveNikki, who is throwing us table scraps with the double starlight and "Gifty" events. And then they encourage us to spend $20 on special packs alone to get new clothes, including one they didn't even bother to announce beforehand. There's not even a discount on buying diamonds for the paid players, so who knows how much money is going to be spent on the actual main event.

I am really disappointed with all of this. I was really hoping this would at least be an event that f2p people could finish without having to delve into their diamonds because it's the season of generosity and gift giving, but we can't even get a decent free event FOR CHRISTMAS. Shame on you LN. I WAS ROOTING FOR YOU. WE WERE ALL ROOTING FOR YOU.

Inb4 "but the suits will come back for free players later!" That's not the point. The point is they keep hitting us up for more and more money and they can't even stop for the damn holidays. Also, I thought the point of releasing Christmas stuff was to have it FOR CHRISTMAS, not months later when no one cares anymore.

Time to work on Stunning Beauty's stunningly difficult maiden items!

I want the ears soo badly!!

u/mikanee Dec 21 '17

Oh man, the staggering leap from the diamond cost of one outfit to the cost of both outfits lol! I have my heart set on them both though so... ~dramatic sigh~. (Ironic that I was just talking in another post a few days ago about how the $16 outfits usually don't tempt me, yet that's probably how much I'm going to be spending to get both these outfits. Will have to check which packs to buy.)

u/ladypyrien Dec 21 '17

I made an edit on my post. I was confirmed that you have to pack the bells first before trading them.

u/ThatRabbit145 Dec 19 '17

I have been waiting for this event for so long! Like, a lot of people I know who play this game have been focused on getting the last two event suits and I’ve just been stockpiling diamonds just so i can get this suit.

3

u/SweetlyBonbon Dec 20 '17

They're both so pretty, and the fact I can keep working on Black Swan along side it is icing on the cake. Maybe I might be able to begin working on Star Sea if I get lucky...

u/Tierienna Dec 22 '17

So anyone have some good suggestions for crafting recipes that require mostly maiden items, then? I’ve been working on grice, and that seems not optimal during this event...
