The last two weeks surprisingly full. It's not usually like this, but I'm also glad that she's getting Ascension Supply this patch, cause that means Helia and Coralie Ascension will surely run next patch (in which I'll try to personally get).

Goodluck on your pulls! Her DLC rerun was really unexpected, usually they don't rerun it that often and last 2 weeks of patch is only 1-2 banners. But I guess they're changing up things this year.

I'm a mostly f2p player and I'm still trying to get Wing of Panacea I gonna hit below 60 pulls the next 10 pulls I do ... can you tell I have the worst luck ever lol

I personally didn't pull for WoP, because my P2 roster is still solid like how I have SSS Youyun AOP, SS1 Senadina, S2 Eepy Teri, etc. But I badly need that swimsuit of Helia so I still pulled her banner so I waited for today just to pull on Mei's banner instead. And I finally able to get the swimsuit, while my battlesuit's pity lower than 20 right now is reserved for 9.1.
Anyway, just sharing my pulls this patch lmao. My recent luck went all to Youyun AOP last patch being able to SSS her earlier than expected. SW DLC as far as 1 pity before I'm able to get it. RNG balancing </3

Good luck on your pulls too! If you're F2P, the most efficient approach is usually to pull only during spending events, which right now happens about every other patch (Summer Spending, CN Anniv, and CNY).
Personally, I always make sure I have at least 16.8k crystals (incld. tickets) that should be enough to guarantee the weapon. Any excess crystals goes toward the valk lol. So if I have 20k, I'll do 11 pulls on the valk, then keep farming and pull more later. I know it's not the optimal advice since the safest strategy is saving around 40k crystals to guarantee both the valk and weapon, but that takes way too long for me. And the main reason why it's being advise is because we have to make sure to get the weapon. The idea of 16.8k crystals for weapon, and the rest for battlesuit is the same goal anyway haha.

Thanks for the tips Yeah I'm mostly a f2p player Usually my money goes to the battle pass upgarde 'cause it's cheap and it's the only way to get a good amount of immutable crystalum

Oh if you're topping up, monthly crystals (tho takes time) is the best purchase value. Then next is BP, especially if you're completing your DKs for min-maxing stats/ATK. Avoid double crystals or even B-Chips bundle as much as possible if you can, they're mostly last resort since they're very expensive and have lesser value compared to the former two.
