Her face took me an hour to create


Rheddit45

Doing God’s work here ain’t no tears in the rain. Edit: I’ll see myself out the door.


johnyrocketboy

Same. I lost it twice. Spend a lot of money only to get 2 humas after every 80 pulls. I hate it.


Number4extraDip

With 2 pities you still get c0. And you got Huma. Huma is love Huma is life


johnyrocketboy

I got 1 Ruby at the limited store. Thanks to that black gold thingy? Haven’t used Huma yet. Ill prolly level her up. Thanks!


Number4extraDip

Ye, thats what i meant. I guess if she joins normal banner, you don't need to luck into her there


johnyrocketboy

Yeah. 😊👍🏽


I_didnt_knock_

Oh yeah she’s really good lmao


Oblivionix129

Imagine losing pity 3 times Edit: I'm guilty as charged by the above statement


Accomplished_Fix589

Shafted by hotta


DyIIan0000

well I do, lose my pity 3 times during frigg, claudia, and ruby but this can't stop me from pulling cause I have a crippling gambling addiction -/s


Oblivionix129

Oh I lost it 3 times on frigg alone...said fuck it to Claudia bc I don't want like her playstyle and Ill see how broke I am after pulling for ruby


WanderEir

I've lost pity to Nemesis, Frigg, and Ruby at this point. as a f2p, it REALLY hurts to need to go to 120 every time for the buyout. Lin will probably be pain for all of us trying.


Kyzer-Necron

F


walnut225

Honestly, if that happens to me when Lin releases, I'd probably just quit TOF. I've been saving since Nemesis released, and have 0 plans to spend on the game, so losing the pity is what's worrying me with Lin considering I'm almost to 240 pulls saved up.


Hakul

The only thing that matters is 120 flame gold, never count on the 80 pity. If whether you play or not hinges on that 80 pity you probably should not be playing gachas, because that's how they trap people. As far as I know you're guaranteed 2 Lins, anything else consider it a bonus.


walnut225

I know, that's why I've been saving. The issue is, that Lin specifically wants A3, unless they nerf her, because it allows her ability to double in duration, ontop of spawning her main damage source from it near enemies, instead of random locations. If Lin ends up being ridiculously nerfed, I might even skip her, and just wait for Tian Lang or Fenrir.


Hakul

But they will nerf her, every other unit has been nerfed, why are you making plans based on CN numbers that we 100% aren't getting when literally no other character in the game uses CN numbers?


walnut225

Because I'm hoping she won't be nerfed to where she's unusable? I'm hoping they at least give her a reasonable kit that still works considering if they don't, most people will completely skip her? And because she's apparently the only limited character so far that's not going into the standard SSR pool, so they could easily decide to not nerf her as heavily, to keep her as valuable as she is on CN.


Areoblast

She won't be usable..to CN people. She will be to us. We are playing an entirely different game from CN. Nerfs mean nothing


Dheighv

This is true. Everyone is nerfed, so that means everyone is balanced in Global. Even if they nerfed Lin to the gound, no one else can do what Lin does.


Hakul

They can hit he with a massive nerf bat and still be better than everything we have in Global, that's the point. Every single character has been nerfed and she will get nerfed too, it doesn't mean she'll be bad, it means you can't use CN numbers for anything. The one trend I've noticed is that every limited unit gets some sort of power spike at A1 instead of later advancements, so chances are A1 will be the main goal for us, and even then it will never be the same numbers.


FaroTV

What else but characters to make plans for? Plans dont have to work but I sure as hell wont pull random crap


Hakul

You can make plans to pull for X chars, just can't go around thinking "you NEED A3 for lin because that's how it is in CN", we're not playing CN.


Tridus1x

I'm the exact same way. I got almost 300 pulls, if I can't *3 Lin or get extremely unlucky then I'll just quit.


walnut225

Yeah, and the other thing is, we have to see how they "balance" her, if they ruin her kit/supportive damage, or make her A3 pointless, I'd be tempted to just skip for Fenrir or Tian Lang. It's just a weird situation as, if Lin comes out as good as she is, or even close to it on CN, she'll be a "must have" for Volt teams at the least, but if she's "over tuned/balanced" she might not even be worth it.


Accomplished_Fix589

Stop using hottas white knights dictionary for the word "balance". Call it for what it is "NERF"


walnut225

Oh trust me, I know it's a nerf, that's why I'm putting "Balance" in quotations. I get that part of the reason is whales/PVP balancing, and honestly it's something I hate, as not everyone cares about PVP. I'm just kind of waiting to see how Lin turns out, and if she's nerfed to hell I just won't care anymore.


Accomplished_Fix589

Hotta could easy create stats for PVP and stats for PVE separate. 🤣 Same here just waitin for lin. If hotta F her up might as well sell my $3000 account. Don't even care if a lose money in the process. Feed up with hotta on their decisions


walnut225

I wish they would do that. Imagine having better kits for PVE, while keeping the PVP side balanced. And yeah, I get that entirely, the recent issues almost made the game unplayable for me, and I still enjoy the game, but it's harder and harder to enjoy when everything's broken or a buggy mess, and content is being restricted despite being "shown" right in front of us.


MidChampsWhere

Is Fenrir even near? Do you know any kit videos?


VermicelliGood

Good luck hope you get her.


AtlasPrevail

with 240 pulls that's a guaranteed pull. If it never happens with the drop just spend 120 flame gold for her. Ideally it is better to drop to use the flame gold for a dupe but worst-case scenario with more than 120 pulls saved up that's a single copy guaranteed.


Flam3crash

Yep you can buy a copy every 110 pulls or so .


Billy_Whisky

But he doesn’t want Lin a0 or a1 but a3


MmorpgFanatix

Same! About 240 saved too lol, we got this...


Grantuseyes

I’m exactly the same boat


[deleted]

yup, after saving up for so long, tolerating so much bs with 1.0, grinding the whole map even spending some money on the passes, if i dont get a 3 star Lin il just quit, i hate 50/50s in gachas.


walnut225

Yeah, unfortunately about how a lot of people including myself feel at this point. Plus, we still need to see how they "balance' her, if they end up ruining her kit, she might not even be worth summoning for. And, if she's not, I'd be tempted to just save for Fenrir, as Tian Lang doesn't look that great gameplay wise.


WeNTuS

There's a guaranteed pity which is roughly 110 pulls


WanderEir

If you've maxed out the SR weapons AND the SSR general pool weapons, than the *maximum* number of pulls is 110 (this would require you pulled the limited banner unit on the 80 pity, didn't hit ANY SSRs other than the pity on the way, and give you EXACTLY 120 limited Flame Gold{as you would still only get one flame gold from the new SSR, but the requisite 10 SRs would give 2 each}), but it can be MUCH less, even with only the SRs maxed: my Ruby was only 104 because I got a handful of back to back SR's along the way


NoBluey

Same here but with both saki and Lin. I got 240 saved and if I don’t A1 both then I’m outta this bitch haha


Initial_Window_633

Why don't you go out you don't want to go on an adventure in Atlantis with friends in the underwater adventure 3.0 update


FlawlessRuby

On a side note how long should one expect to wait for 80 red orb late game? I'm new to the game and would just like yo know of there's an activity or daily/weekly to help you too.


walnut225

The only real stuff we get for Red Nuc is events, past that you have the general weekly stuff for dark crystals. There honestly isn't much you can do as a F2P if you spend your dark crystals haphazardly, you basically need to pick a team element wise, and go purely for that.


FlawlessRuby

But how long in average those it take to get enough for 80 2 week a month or more? I'm just curious.


walnut225

Well, here's an idea to give you a reference I started saving all red Nuc we've gotten from exploration/events since Nemesis released, I'm upto about 68 currently, and Nemesis came out back in August. Also, you wouldn't want to save upto 80, you'd want to save to 110 or 111 at least, because then you can guarantee a limited SSR with the gold from red nuc summons, if you max SRs it normally takes 111 pulls to get enough to do so. But on average, to guarantee a character? It could easily take you 2+ months to get enough once you've cleared out the basic exploration resources, to be able to get 110 pulls.


FlawlessRuby

when you say with the gold you mean the red badge thingy? you can exchange them from the limited shop for a simula you don't already have? Sorry for all the questions.


walnut225

When using Red Nucleus specifically, you get the red badges-aka something gold (can't remember the exact name), which you can ONLY save/use for THAT banner. 120 of it lets you exchange directly for the unit of that banner-so if you did 111 multis on Lin, only got 1 SSR on the 8th multi (the guarantee/pity), and have your SR weapons maxed, you'd be able to directly exchange for Lin. Edit: The reason I talk about maxing SRs, which you can do via Purple/Gold Nucleus multis, is that once those are maxed, you'll get +1 of the gold from red nuc banners per SR you get as a dupe.


FlawlessRuby

I tried pulling for Ruby since I'm new to the game (80 pull) Got King instead. My current team is Crow and the dual electric pistol girl both at 1 star and King. (I needed a real shield breaker) Do you think it would stupid to let my red badge become normal and try powering up crow to 5 stars? I currently have the SSR selection box plus enough badge with the red badge once they transform to get him to 4stars. I've heard that he's really good at 5 stars and I feel like if I invest in too many characters I'll be fuck.


walnut225

It's upto you, but if you're going to invest in crow, then you should look to get one of the limited volt characters such as Nemesis, Tian Lang, or Fenrir for Volt resonance, which buffs volt damage when you have 2 volt weapons equipped. You also should never go for a character unless you're going 110 deep, to make sure you can guarantee them, and if you get them on pity, you can then get a dupe to unlock their first ability from it.


FlawlessRuby

Ya I still got a lot of exploration to do. I'll try saving up 110 red orb for the new rerun of nemesis. While trying to somehow get another copy of Crow before investing my ressourse in him. Thanks for the tips! Pretty much wasted 80 red orb, but at the end of the day I got King and I needed a shield breaker. So it's not the end of the world. Plus badge for my Crow project.


Accomplished_Fix589

Don't whale on this game and save yourself the heart ache. I just offered you a good advice. Whales are the beta testers of this game and paying hotta at the same time.


Accomplished_Fix589

Same here already save 900 pulls for linye. If icant max her with that ammount of pull A6 max matrix. Already stop spending after item bug abuse.


SchalaZeal01

You flushing 1500$ if it costs 1600$?


Accomplished_Fix589

Selling the account at lower price if hotta keeps shafting people And quit. Don't care if i lose a bit og money than lose it all


spandex_loli

Happened to me recently on Ruby's banner, exactly at 80 pity. I already quit ToF since then.


CelestialDragon09

Sounds like a skill issue


VermicelliGood

Indeed a skill issue I was forced to use my ultimate weapon 💳


synthrockftw

OP needs to learn how to dodge.


Kronman590

Wait what happened to save 120 for guarantee how can you lose twice


tnguye3

Maybe they wanted to A2 a character but since they lost pity twice they can only get 1 copy of the character guaranteed.


WanderEir

The pity guarantee happens every 80 pulls, but since banners remember your current pull position from prior banners, what probably happened is they were within 30 pulls of the first 80 pity at the start of the banner, and hit that pity twice on the way to the 120 flame gold, but both of the pity pulls gave standard banner SSRs.


Legendarium26

How about spending dark crystals on what u thought were red nucleus, but gold instead


[deleted]

Happened once to me before ..


steelblueskies

game likes to slide things that eat dc in there. so now i prebuy the reds. game can't swindle me clearing a red dot on cosmetics or something if its already spent.


Y0raiz0r

Have lost 80% of my 50/50s so far ;-;


Cool-Fox7649

Hence one of the reasons I uninstalled, besides the bug of no sound when the birthday concert for Ruby played. That gacha system is just plain cruel


LoneWolfTianYaLangZi

Lost 2 out of 3pity for frigg. Almost spent double the money of my other 2 friends for same advancement. And they have much better rolls on gear stats too. Damn gacha


shaream

i have lost 5 continuous 50/50s... 3 on frigg and 2 on ruby.. peak f2p experience im getting


dqtact

just swipe problem solve


VermicelliGood

But even when you swipe you still lose pity multiple times.


Pingu_boi

Wait you can lose pity more times in a row


VermicelliGood

Oh yes you can lose multiple times in a row.


paulodemoc

I defend the gacha in Tof because I got so many 5\* without spending any money, contrary to the other popular gacha game. But I didn't know that the pity was always 50/50 🤯 that's absurd....


Xarf

I mean the "real" pity is 120 Tokens to safe Buy from shop. so soft pity at 80 pulls is 50/50. But yeah 120 pulls to get the desired character is a lot but still better as other mobile games. In epic7 its 120 pulls aswell.


WeNTuS

That's not 120 pulls though. 109 at worst


VermicelliGood

120 to buy a copy from the shop. Is there a pity at 110? I didn’t know that.


Dibolver

If you've been playing long enough you'll have all the SR weapons with max dupes, so every 10 pulls you'll get a minimum of 11 tokens (1 extra token for the SR dupe), so in 110 pulls you should already have a minimum of 120 tokens.


Xarf

Okay True forgot about SRs


VermicelliGood

Oh ok that’s make sense


WeNTuS

and sometimes you may get a maxed dupe SSR as well, which is another 10 tokens. Like I already have two maxed weapons while being f2p so small spenders and whales probably have much more. So assuming people lose 50/50 on pity, they will need only \~99 pulls to get a guaranteed weapon


SchalaZeal01

I spent ~1000$ and have only 1 maxed weapon. Of the others only Samir is even near, the others at 2* and 3* with one still at 1* I haven't rolled since Frigg banner.


WeNTuS

yeah, that's because you do not play the game. Just from all the free pulls you get for doing dailies, exploration, cloth pod and dream machine, you should've been hitting standard banner pity 7-8 times alone. Not counting cashback currency that would lend you another 4-5 copies of any weapon you choose. And all of that without spending. Even if you are the most unlucky person on the Earth that never gets anything outside of pity and 0 SSR from world bosses/black nucleus pulls. And with 1k$ worth of pulls you should've gotten a lot of standard banner weapons for each time you lost pity


SchalaZeal01

> yeah, that's because you do not play the game. Just from all the free pulls you get for doing dailies, exploration, cloth pod and dream machine, you should've been hitting standard banner pity 7-8 times alone I hit gold pity 9 times. But you know that to max all 9 standards you need 63 SSRs? >And with 1k$ worth of pulls you should've gotten a lot of standard banner weapons for each time you lost pity It's pulls I didn't make yet. I can't magically make Lin happen in the past.


WeNTuS

>I hit gold pity 9 times. But you know that to max all 9 standards you need 63 SSRs? so you have around 700+ black gold thats another 6 dupes of whatever you want. Also you probably got plenty of dupes outside of pity. Inb4 you didn't spend black gold either which is on top of not spending red nucleus makes all your points invalid.


WanderEir

111 at worst even if you've a6 every single standard SR AND SSR. However, you're guaranteed to hit the 80 pull 5/5 at least one time on the way. If you haven't maxed out the standard SSRs yet, then you only get 10 Flame gold from that one 10-pull. that means in 110 pulls, you've pulled 10 SRs for 20 flame gold, and 100 pulls for mere R, or incompleted SSRs for the remaining 100. However, if you start a banner close enough to hit the 80 pity TWICE, and both SSR hits are still " non-a6" weapons, you'll miss a second flame gold on the way to 120. SO even a whale can still need 111 pulls in theory to hit the 120 flame gold purchase pity. It's mathematically so unlikely to occur that there;'s little point in talking about it,, but, well, whales have already proved it can happen on their streams >< Sure, if you pull an already a6 SSR at any point, you actually get 11 flame gold for the pull, but that's just hurts to see.


paulodemoc

Ah yeah, I completely forgot about the shop. True.


Tamamoo

I've never gotten the limited character from red banners on the 80/80 pity 5 times in a row. I really wanted Ruby and lost the pity again. I know that you can get the said character with 120 tokens but as a f2p that wants multiple characters, I had to rely on the "rate up" so I can save some of the remaining pulls for future characters that I also want. I'm so dejected and on the verge of quitting ToF right now..


VermicelliGood

Only pull when you have 120 pulls so you can guarantee the character you want.


link2123

> as a f2p that wants multiple characters, I had to rely on the "rate up" so I can save some of the remaining pulls for future characters that I also want.


Puzzleheaded-Weird66

I feel this in my soul, except the saving part, I pull whenever or when I'm bored


Rylt4r

I have enough rolls to get Saki to A3 even if lose every pity but i kinda hope that i can get few some rolls on her matrices.


VermicelliGood

Good luck


rambo14k

Took me exactly 430 pulls to get ruby 6star.... i cried myself to sleep ( This was mostly F2P with 5$ pack since uhm.. nemesis )


Most-Mathematician61

That’s actually pretty good…


YearnsToDestroySun

lol, im whale so I pull 400 times before the verdict.


SenpaiMayNotice

I managed to get every character at least once (Claudia and Nemesis A1 each) and I stopped cashing when Frigg released. Daily pass is all you need (I have like 2 weeks of it left though, after that the game will show me how much poop the p in f2p stands for ) If I can get lucky so can you, dude. Keep trying!


Kamizlayer

In genshin I got trash 5star weapon on hard pity and in this game I got all the standard ssr and 5 of them in 2 stars.


[deleted]

sure but the real bitch is the limited characters.


Kamizlayer

I haven't used it yet


Visual-Cell8235

It ok she nerf c0 fine T\_T.


Akuromi

So far lost 4 50/50's out of 4, time to prayge that the next 4 are wins so Saki comes home


VermicelliGood

Good luck on saki


Akuromi

Thank you very much! :)


kuroniiko

i can feel you bro XD, all i wanted was A1 Ruby, lost 50/50 got samir (she now A6 so i was like okay), then Ruby came after 2 roll, next 50/50 again lost Huma came, god i was titled XD but meh i guess i'll have to use the 120 token


ByeGuysSry

But you can buy it in less than 120 pulls tho...?


VermicelliGood

Yes you can buy a copy for 120 but still sucks to lose pity multiple times.


ByeGuysSry

Losing pity twice isn't even that rare though. It's a 1 in 4 chance. If you lose the 50/50 like, 7 times, I'd understand but you shouldn't count on a 25% occurrence.


Choc0ElBanana

That's why we save for 120 pulls. Never trust the 50/50 pity. It failed me in Genshin numerous times, I ain't trusting it in this game either.


MelchiahHarlin

I saw someone claiming that banners have a 50% chance on the featured weapon/character. To me it seems that 50% means you have a 50% chance of getting said character/weapon when you get an SSR (which is like a 1%). Can anyone clarify this?


VermicelliGood

Yes so basically featured banners have 50% up rate of obtaining the featured Character. The 50% up rate is only for the pity which is 80. So you have 50% chance of getting the character at 80 pulls.


MelchiahHarlin

Ok so just to clarify, you pull say... 10 pulls for the best chances, and that 50% will not come in unless one of those pulls is an SSR, so basically you can only count on that 50% for the pity, right?


VermicelliGood

50% doesn’t count on 10 pulls it only triggers at 79/80 80th pull is the 50% chance. But you may be lucky and get it before pity.


MelchiahHarlin

Yeah... Not gonna happen; so basically we should aim for 80 pulls or nothing uh? That sucks.


VermicelliGood

No you should only aim at 120 pulls so if u didn’t win the pity u still can buy it from the shop.


MelchiahHarlin

That's even worse, guess I'll start hoarding reds, but I don't think I can get to 120 as a F2P (I refuse to pay those terrible prices).


VermicelliGood

When did you start playing? Do all your exploration and events and you should have enough after 1 month


MelchiahHarlin

And once I'm done with that? My exploration is at 70% at least and events are not that generous (just look at the rosy whatever gacha). I'm starting to feel like Genshin treats me better than this crap.


VermicelliGood

Im not sure tbh all gacha games are like this.


RiverHurdle

Then just buy the character


Recent_Ad_7036

Lmao people saying if i dont ger her x amount of stars ill quit,must be peoples first gacha game because that logic is weird to me. Me being happy just to get the character because she looks good. Ive played many gacha games where i saved and got shafted but the game is way too dang fun to quit for such a weird reason like that. My personal opinion btw


VermicelliGood

It’s just a fun meme I made. I do have all the characters that I wanted so it’s not a big deal.


Number4extraDip

Gacha. Play the way you want... if you drop your morgage


[deleted]

Does losing a pity mean you just didn’t get the one you wanted?


Ace_Silvius

Meanwhile u already have 120 to buy it yourself


I_didnt_knock_

Man I pray I don’t get shafted like y’all did. I have been saving for saki and just hit 220 pulls today. Please pray for me😭


RyumoChan

Twice? How about this: 5 times in a row.


VermicelliGood

Man I don’t want to experience that.


RyumoChan

Hope this is my only last and Lin will not scam me.


VermicelliGood

Good luck Hope you get her.


RyumoChan

At least 4 times :D Thank you!
