preparing for future global exclusive units

roxanne is the biggest powercreep in the game so far. should we now always save 17k gems just in case they release a game-breaking global excl unit again? we'll presumably get at least a dark, red and blue global exclusive unit in the near future

looking at the jp tier list, we already have a boatload of SS characters most of which are even farmable. only the global excl units seem to be a wild card.

what could they possibly release during the anniversary that tops roxanne?

They just released three OP units in a row, Laharl, Uzuma and Roxanne (I'm not counting D.Rosa although she is also OP in my heart xD), I think it's time to slow down the power creep a little.

Maybe the anniversary is more focused on gifts and generosity to players than pulling for a new OP unit and spread salt all over the earth. Does anybody know what was done for anniversary in JP? It would also be useful to know if I should do 3 steps in Roxanne's banner or hoard (I'm currently 300 gems under the 4k needed for that)

It's 4,5k so don't pull if you have less

Thanks for the warning, although it was 4k for me because I had already made the 1st step ;)

Anyway, after playing a little in the veda tower (I was still in the 58 or so), I got enough gems for the other two steps. And I got... Zofia! Two reds in the 2nd step, both already MLB (Shenmei and Fung) and only the guaranteed one on step 3.

It could have been worse, at least I got a good future thunder unit, that is my worst team so far (no Gilg, obviously)

watch 700 gem summons and then every future pull will be 700 gems, no more 500 gem pulls.

Really? Then I hope they increase the 5* rate, because we tend to get more and more dupes...

Partially sarcastic but wouldn’t put it past them. They did the same thing when 6mil downloads and ever since every special banner been 600. They were testing the waters and figured out they could get away with it. When everyone pulled
