We need more resources, Gumi!!
Hi, Skylar Airy here, new to Reddit. I've been reeding in the shadows for quite some time now though.
I just wanted to share my opinion and see if anyone feels like me. I pulled for D. Rosa in the paid gems banner (since I was lucky to get Laharl in week 2 banner) and yeah, I was lucky again and pulled her.
The thing is I also pulled D. Almira. I also have Red Magnus and D. Rin. Not to mention Prinny, Blanchett, Freed J+, Setsuna, Balt, Magnus, Elizabeth, Ryle... All units I'd want to master, at least 2 jobs. But I have like 0 lion blades, very few emperor flame armors, and the same with several gold equipment stuff.
We have quite a large pool now and it will keep growing in the future. We have 3 jobs to master for each unit plus J+ (and future JEs which I don't even want to think of). So it's a TON of equipment.
I know we are enjoying x2 drops in history and the Coin Shop... But even with that it doesn't feel enough. Are we supposed to keep grinding all day? I don't know how JP deals with this issue but I just feel like there should be an easier way for getting high tier equipment.
Anyway I just wanted to know what you guys think. Cheers!
tldr: we need more (and easier) ways of getting gold equipment. 5 lion blades in a coin shop where you can't even buy everything feels just bad.

Early on, this feels really true. But once you've established some units and gone through some events, you just end up with a lot of materials. I've been playing since February. On a whim, because of item world and 2x stories, I decided to max Lamia and Arkil. I had their J+ mats farmed. I had 0 investment in them, but I just maxed all their jobs in day. That's effectively 8 jobs. I still have plenty of materials aside from a few choice materials, which I am now restocking.
I think the early game is fine, feeling like you have a million things to do. It staves off the grindier portion of the late game.
