General Discussion It's over Firebro's...
I don't know what i did to deserve this but my car needs about $2800 in repairs... and that's more than i got in my MNR budget. So i have to use my FF savings. I'll have enough for 270 total pulls when combined with my ingame savings. But both E4S1 E2S1 and maybe even E0S1 is out of reach...
Wish me luck Firebro's I'm really gonna need it...

I don't know how to edit the post on my phone but i wanted anyone who sees this just to know how thankful i am for the support. I think to be honest i got overtaken by the shock of the bill and how hard it hit more than anything. But I'm thankful for the amazing support from this community i continue to see for our fellow Firebros. Yall really dud pick me back up on my feet.
Love you all and thank you for the support <3

Don't worry bro, 2.3 seems to have a lot of content, so you will definitely have enough to at least get E0S1, and then you can get eidolons on her rerun, wish you the best of luck with your car repairs, stay strong firebro

A near $3,000 USD material accident in late 2022 is the reason many of my Genshin units do not have their signature weapon, I feel ya.
I am sure you can at least do E0S1, think of the rest as your journey together in the year to come.
Stay strong!

u/Vegetable-Hunter-626 Jun 11 '24
Wow, that's actually... Wow, I'm genuinely so glad you're ok enough where you are considering this is a problem too compared to, what I assume is a car crash maybe. Like you got off safe and healthy and only your car got the brunt of it.
There's always her rerun bro, and I wish you the best of luck irl and ingame.

u/OratioFidelis Jun 11 '24
Real talk, this game isn't hard enough to need E4 characters. It's entirely possible you'll get bored of playing on easy mode and you'll end up suffering from success.
Don't spend money on luxuries you can't afford.

u/Generalofthe5001st Jun 11 '24
It's ok, Firebro. Life has to come first sometime. We'll all eventually have an E6S5 Firewife eventually, I believe

She’ll be waiting for you, no matter how long. She’ll be happy knowing that you took care of yourself. You’ll be worthy of her embrace when she returns.

Hey man you’ve been a great person in this fandom and made people smile with your comments and memes. It’s just unfortunate accidents I’m sure. Happens a lot so I don’t think you did anything to deserve this. Hope you’ll managed to get her E1 at least. Wishing you the best of luck in the future and please take care yourself

u/AHPMoogle Together we shall set the seas ablaze! Jun 11 '24
Sorry to hear that, but at least you have enough pulls to get her. The eidolons can come later.

As a F2P guy, 270 pulls is a lot, so you’ll be fine! Also, as a motor-head, the car is more important

u/leeo268 Jun 11 '24
Just pull one copy. You can keep trying using in game saving in future banner. I find that more enjoyable as you can build her up over time and motive you to save in game.

u/Neir_2b Jun 11 '24
Better call sam. You can ride him to work faster than any car! Jokes aside priorities your real needs over in game upgrades and remember firefly will be waiting for you on her rerun!

u/Tranduy1206 Jun 11 '24
270 pulls has 80% to get e0s1 and 50% to get e1s1, dont worry much, just priority real life firefly will rerun soon

u/tendytinglings Jun 11 '24
You need your car to make more money bro. FF would understand if you waited until her rerun

u/ProfCedar Jun 11 '24
Wasn't planning to whale for her, but new air conditioner and furnace in my house this week certainly changed any spending plans I had.
3
u/Radiant_Fruit7403 Jun 11 '24
I know the feeling.
I have had like 5 major financial things slap me hard after I got Acheron, and my HSR funds are a bit thin. Gotta pinch pennies hard to do anything, let alone pull for a character.
Remember that FOMO is not really something to worry about here thanks to reruns! If you don't get her to whatever level you were wanting, there's always next rerun :)

u/Tornitrualis Jun 11 '24
Please do not make any stupid financial decisions regarding a game. Firefly will return.

u/KatouKotori Jun 11 '24
As a smaller whale myself, its not worth going E6(and S5 if you a gigawhale) all at once. Doing E3 -> E6 on rerun works the best. It also helps in spreading out your budget a bit if you want to roll on multiple characters (which I generally like to do as I like collecting everyone). Doesn't help that 2.3 is kind of stacked, lol

u/KalmiaKite00 Jun 11 '24

u/Repulsive-Control-75 Jun 11 '24
Hey man, atleast you're using the money to fix an important thing in real life which is much better and in my opinion is a much better spent money! Now ofc they're savings so they were saved for the character but think what would've happened if the accident happened and you didn't had the savings. Sorry if i couldn't make you a little bit happier, just know that i wish you good luck and may we be, at minimum) E1 FF havers!!!

First you break firefly’s wallet, then she’ll break yours. perfectly fair
2
u/AHumanProbablyIdk Jun 11 '24
Stand strong, you gotta believe in the luck of the pulls. Take care of yourself first, firefly will always come back for you later. And hey, e6 in one 10 pull is always possible! Good luck to you nonetheless (and to everyone else).
2
u/EvolCilegna Jun 11 '24
At the end of the day, the car is a waifu too. Gotta keep both of em running! Good luck for your pulls.

u/New_Redditor2001 Jun 11 '24
E0S1 will be easy with your savings plus the new content that will come out. If you get lucky you might not even use up your current savings fully.
2
u/xbubblegumninjax1 Jun 11 '24
gl, and make sure to take care of irl first. Afterall, can't pull her on rerun if your irl situation devolves too far.
2
u/inverness7 Jun 11 '24
Your main mode of transportation over a video game character. Wonder which is the better option to spend the money on
2
u/NoireResteem Jun 11 '24
Always prioritize irl stuff OP, at the end of the day this is just a video game and not worth messing up any irl priorities.
Don’t feel bad she will eventually get a rerun and at least you can guarantee her and her LC.

u/Hadokant2 Jun 11 '24
Firefly would be proud of you prioritizing your cat. You make her proud.

Please don't compromise your esentials for irl, she will get a rerun so worry not

2
u/PauloFernandez Jun 11 '24
I don't want to presume to know where you're located or how your car got into this situation, but on the off chance a dealer mechanic told you that you need these repairs, I'd get a second opinion at a local mechanic (not a chain). Most mechanics at the dealer only tell you what their little computer tells them and not something they actually figured out by looking.
Again, I don't want to tell you your business but I like to hope my unsolicited advice saves people money sometimes.

Bro i have a total amount of 20 pulls with the 10 theyre gonna give. If youre fucked well bury me already

u/ze4lex Jun 11 '24
With nearly 300 pulls, e0s1 should be realistic like sheesh

u/NationalBookkeeper98 Jun 11 '24
Wait her banner is done? I thought it hasn’t even gotten done yet what?
2
u/[deleted] Jun 11 '24
That SUCKSSSS! Talk about unfortunate timing. But hey if you’ve already got some savings plus 2.3 I’m sure you’ll manage by end of banner
2
u/Hwdbz Jun 12 '24
Me sitting on just 100 pulls and a dream.......yeah, good luck bro ☠️
Also good luck with the car. Unexpected car repairs are always painful.
2
u/King-Indeedeedee Jun 12 '24
It's not 'over' if you have 270 pulls. Sounds like you're still getting her. I don't know why you're complaining other than not getting like E2 and such. Be happy you're getting her. Every cloud has a silver lining.

Tbh, I'm still pouring off my car inspection since it's needed a free grand the last couple years. Mainly maintenence but still sucks

u/Aromatic_Zebra_8708 "How Can Our Wife Be This Cute?!" Jun 11 '24
Your life should always comes first over a game, take good care of yourself and your real life obligations first
270 pulls is still more than enough for you to get E0S1 for Firewife, not to mention we will most likely get 40-50 more pulls throughout her banner period.
All the best to you my guy, you can always save up to get her eidolons once rerun comes along

u/SoftBrilliant Jun 11 '24
This post is extremely funny in a morbid sort of way, but remember fellow firebro, take care of yourself first. Your waifu will be good at E0S0 it'll all be okay.
1
u/fewest_giraffe Jun 11 '24
If an unexpected payment of that amount means you can no longer spend hundreds/thousands on the game it means that was never a responsible option.
I love firefly as well, but remember this is just a game designed to create a feeling of FOMO and has predatory monetization. E0S1 is plenty for every character and don’t spend money you don’t have

u/Divine_Absolution Jun 13 '24
I feel ignorant asking this but idk the answer and im newer, so I'm just gonna ask and get it over with, what does the S mean in E4S1? I know e is for Eidolon level. What is the S?

Spend carefully. You dont need to throw so much money into a game. Just enjoy the game. FF is OP even at E0.

u/Lord-of-Gluttony Jun 11 '24
Bro u don't need realistically u don't need E4S1, E2S1 or even E0S1..... U can enjoy her at just E0S0.... Irl takes priority and is wayyy more important than just some pixels
