I'm already dreaming of the S! Heles, S! Naoise, Khumbira team I am going to run once I get her. All the grinding is making me delirious. That free Atma Spear from the anni can't get here fast enough.

I really wonder how a Kumbhira and Grand Vira axe team could turn out

I have never get 100 free roll until it being guaranteed on the last day, both in main or alt account.

But my friend got 100 roll yesterday and today. Good thing is from that 200 free roll in legfest, he only got 1 new character (dark Zeta), the rest is gold moon. hahaha

My free rolls this year have been pretty bad.

Last year free rolls gave me most of my SSRs.

Only got a few this time around.

well, i mean it has only been 2 days this year. lol

This has been the most cursed free draw event ever for me. I'm constantly hitting 20 or 30s, and getting nothing but 9R-1SR. I hit Frenzy after a week (bar fills slow with these 30 draws), I get a Gold Moon or a bad summon instantly. Yesterday, I hit 30, and somehow got 6 SSRs (2 per draw).

Grind over, my first spark today! Hopefully I don't get a 10 roll and have to empty everything. Which is of course what will happen now.

The best thing about Granblue is that I haven't spent a single cent and I'm rolling in the SSRs. Got Orchid and Yodarah and others my past two days. I currently got 30000 crystals and will be saving that to spark Dark Zooey.

The two gachapin frenzies I got ended on a single draw. I hope I get some good luck today during my spark.

Are there any good picks in the Surprise Special Draw set?
Post the element you are looking for and the characters that you have in that element, and we can give you some reccomendations. Otherwise, just pick the character that appeals to you

I'm highly debating using my ticket on Arthur and Mordred, for example, because there are no more characters I "need"

Isn't that the time when you maybe should consider not buying the ticket at all? I thought the point of them was to finally get that character you love (or really need for esports reasons).

Hm, got Eustace while going for the spark and now it's between Pholia and Athena since I have everyone else. For anyone that has her, is Pholia worth it?

Edit: Ended up picking Athena because I figured I'd try out a fire tank.

I love Arthurkuyn and probably would have suptix'd him last ticket if he was avalible (I think I ended up ticketing Amira because there was NOTHING I wanted avalible otherwise). This time, it's between Vane and Lancelot and Algove if I want an SSR....

Well, I have 150 sparks from free draws right now, so I guess I might as well spark...
Who would be best to get? Isn't Anila supposed to be really good or something?

Anila is really good.
However, the point of Premium Gala is more about the weapons than the actual characters..... A lot of the Grand series characters are either only really good earlier in the game, or very niche. However, all of the Grand series weapons are basically the best weapons in their respective elements. Murglies (Katalina) is the backbone of Varuna, Love Eternal (Rosetta) is a pretty huge upgrade over the GW Dagger, AK-4A (Eugen)has one of the highest attack values in the game and Gambanteinn (Io) gives Trium to light.

Flash Gala is where all the limiteds that are awesome for being CHARACTERS are, such as Strum, Summer Zooey, Orchid, and the Magna 2 characters are. That's not to say that the weapons aren't good here, but Flash is more about the awesome units.

The problem with Premium Gala characters is that most of them are quite old/obsolete, under the right circustances Rosetta still has the best party buff in all the game though. Sturm weapon is far more relevant than the character, Anila or Athena are better fire characters so not all Flash Gala characters are great.

Okay, so I guess if I already have Io's weapon and don't really have a party I like for water, then it's either Rosetta, Eugen, Anila, or maybe Athena?

Anila is one of the best characters in the game and she's in practically every fire team so you can't go wrong with her

I can't wait a year for Mahira to get her 5* and to not just be the cutest character in the game, but also the best character....

The wheel was kind to me and I had enough rolls to spark! Got Rosetta, and Anila from the draws, so I sparked the Pig.

Europa, Khumbira, and Anila are all characters I really wanted and I got them all this roulette. I got crazy, super lucky. Honestly, I don't even know what I want to spark next. I got most everything I wanted.

Wow, something weird happened with my last rolls. So, I got a 10 roll as today's spin. That 10 roll also filled my gachapin bar, so, after that 10 roll (which gave me uriel), going to the home page landed me again on the spinner to get the frenzy, and after 20 rolls it gave me the pig!

I suppose its to guarranty the 100 rolls tomorrow, but yeah, I feel so lucky.

I got another gachapin yesterday, broke it on my second multi-pull with a gold moon. I guess I won't be sparking this time. I got ten pulls today (and not the 100, as I knew I wouldn't) and got Pholia and Europa out of it, both new. I'm happy it's not another gold moon at least, and the character/summon looks great. I'm sure I'll get my 100 draws tomorrow when the banner changes to something horrible, so here's hoping I get some moons out of it.

Got a third gachapin today, the third one that ends after the first 10 rolls. Gachapin is rigged, I'm telling ya. Anyways, finished my spark and it went amazing. I got all the featured characters while building my 300 Sparks and a bunch of nice bonuses including Pholia, and the Levin sisters, so I sparked Anila. Now I also own the four primarch summons, so that's great too.

Thanks for the borrowed luck, Moara

After today's draw, guess the roulette thing is mostly done

One new SSR character, 3 gold moons and one summon that's has some use throughout the whole event. Not really going to expect much for the 100 tomorrow. All I can do is laugh I guess.

These are the characters and summons I currently have. My summon is kind of lacking so I'm debating if I should use the surprise ticket and the beginner ticket on summons like Athena or Medusa. I'm still really early on in the game and didn't make any mono team yet, so I'm just running around with a team of different element doing story and free missions, which I think is pretty bad without Grand Order. On the bright side I managed to pull Athena and Kumbhira today, and I can also spark for Anila.

First off, I suggest not to use the beginner ticket on summons like Athena or Medusa lol. Good thing about it is that you can grab limited/themed characters depending on the day the account was made. I think most would go for S.Zooey (Dark) because of how useful she is early and late game. Although, I don't know if she's still available for you.

For the surprise ticket, as someone mentioned one page back, De La Fille (earth) would synergies well with your Alexiel (support skill and providing DATA). Also bringing some form of buff and sustain to the team. Furthermore, you can make an atma sword team if you want, due to the fact that anniversary coming soon and it's giving a free weapon.

You... you have 6 Limited characters out of 25 SSRs......... I have 119 SSRs and have only drawn 13 limiteds.......
Also, why are none of your characters uncapped?

As far as sparking Anila, you have 10 hours left to do it, and if you are close (like, you hit your 100 draws in this banner), i would say go for it. I'd love to have her, and your fire SUCKS right now.

Don't get any of the summons. There was a time where I would reccomend one of the racist summons like Tezcat, but now there are so many 100% up summons out there you can always find one as a friend summon.
Lets break this down by Elment:
Fire: This is not a strong element for you. You have Athena who is good, and Clarissa has a defined roll (she caps Defense down), but you could use an attacker. Percival would be the Fire character to ticket here in this element
Dirt: You have 2 great Earth characters, Siegfried (though he's mearly good before lvl 100, he becomes a monster at lvl 100) and Alex. You need a buffer, and Earth De La Fille is the fit here- she synergizes well with Alex, and she is also a sword proficent character for later this year when you can get a free atma weapon. Plus, she randomly gives casino chips every few fights!
Water: you have Phlia and Yuel which is good, but you need an attacker. The best ticketable attackers are Vane or Lancelot, with Vane being the best long-term investment. Also, you could consider Yodahara. His ougi does 1 million plain (ignores damage cuts/elemental resistance) no matter how strong or weak your grid is, which will make playing the game a lot easier, and based on the fact that you have nothing uncapped, i'm guessing you are an early player
Wind: This is one of your stronger elements. Korwa is kind of outdated at this point, but she is still very powerful for new players. Scathacha is a very good unit, and Metera is fine for what she is. Lancelot would be a good replacement for Metera, but this is the element you least need to use a ticket
Dark: Another element where you are pretty good. Vira is a great utility character, Olivia is very strong, and Black Knight has fear. The only reccomendations I could make for Dark are Jeannine D'Arc (probably the best non-limited character in the draw pool), or Wulfie (and you don't need them)
Light: Far and away your best element. You have Pig Girl, you have Roombi, you have Vira, you have Jeannie, hell you even have Albert!

In your space, I would probably be ticketing Earth De La Fille (MAKE SURE NOT TO PICK THE LIGHT VERSION SHE SUCKS), Vane, Jeane d'Arc (dark), or Percival, with serious thought given to Yodahara

That's a good point, should spark soon if you decided to or its gona go kapoof.

Edit: Also has anyone bought any of the new year skins? The Eahta one looks nice and I would like to know how much did they add to it.

First spark completed. Got my target at 270 pulls (Kumhbira) so I sparked Anila. Now I need to save up and spark Shiva for spear memes.

Spark was pretty good, 17 ssrs (3 limited, 3 unticketables, and Athena).

Now does anyone want to carry my newb ass through ubahaHL lol. I need an atma spear.

I just came back for the free rolls after an 8 month break. I already had two sparks saved and sparked Shiva. And then I got Pig with the free 3k crystals they gave out the other day. I can save my spark for something else now!

I gotta check my blood pressure from all this salt. Plenty of pigs and four-armed gods for everyone else but not much at all for me. I got just two new SSR characters after all of this roulette nonsense. One of those is Athena, so I'm not complaining as much as I could be, but still sucks to know about and anticipate roulette and the impending releases for Shiva and Kumbhira for what seems like months, and then to not get either one.

Thank you so much, that was very detailed and helpful. I will surprise ticket the Earth De La Fille then!

Just to throw a second opinion in, I'd pick Yoda because his 1 million plain dmg ougi is such a big QOL improvement to the grinding that you have to do. His niche is somewhat neutered because of the abundance of 100% element summons, but he goes a long way in clearing pre-HL stuff. I probably never would've gotten over some of the initial grind roadblocks if it wasn't for him. You can one-button your hard raids, and get full pendant contribution with a single button at strike times. He gets you to HL and functional weapon grids that much quicker.

Complete my 3rd spark and pick Anila.

She is gonna be a special since she is my 100th SSR unit.

I'm gonna work you to the bone sheep.

All in all, a very great and satisfying spark (that gives me 11 Gold moon, lol).

Thank you so much, that was very detailed and helpful. I will surprise ticket the Earth De La Fille then!

You can also consider Dark Jeanne if you love Jalter. lol

Is Anila good enough to be the third with Sturm and Therese? I will have to stick to my atma sword till the anniversary but I hear her buffs are worth the lack of sword prof.

Agreed, Anila is good enough that the damage she ain't doing is already being tunneled into your other units with what she provides.

Man, its going to be interesting to see what they do with Monkey's uncap.

Random Question, but I have 5 Colo canes in my fire grid and 3 are flb. Is it worth gathering the materials to flb the rest or am I going to most likely change them out in the future?
