Looking back at the 9 months (or so) that i've played, I can't believe I've done 3 sparks.
1) Spark 1 (Summer 2018)
- My first spark with Summer Jeanne as my spark target.
-Notable pulls included her + 2 Ixabas. Overall was 18 SSRs in 300 Pulls which was about average (6%). Fantastic spark since it gave me the backbone of my Agni grid.
-Sparked: Alexiel
2) Spark 2 (Early December 2018)
-I honestly did not want to spark, since all my funds since Summer were saved for the upcoming Zodiac at the end of the year.
-However, since this was Vajra's last appearance for the next year or so, it really forced my hand and made me reluctantly commit to the spark.
-The most notable pull was Cain (who I didn't want). Other that that, I got Freezie, Gandalf, Arulumaya, and Nemone + 6 Gold Moons.
-I had a hilarious (and extremely triggering) streak of summon pulls of DAOx2, Maculax2, Snow White.
-Overall was 15 SSRs in 300 Pulls which was below average (5%). Personally, I was very disappointed with the spark, especially since it was a reluctant spark.
-Sparked: Vajra
3) Spark 3 (End December 2018/Start January 19)
- A portion of this spark (20%~) came straight from my wallet (bless Christmas/New Years Costumes/Suptix). The rest of the crystals came from Fate Episodes (all 25 pages of them), Free Quests, Freebies, Events and so on. Roulette helped as well (although I did not get anything above 30 rolls during legfest.
-This spark is a weird one since it could have very nearly have been the worst spark that i've seen. Statistically, its a terrible spark; yet, its also my favorite/personally best spark now. I even hit Gachapin twice during legfest and yet they both broke on first 10 roll and gave me utter shit.
-It all started so well, with the first 10 pull giving me Gabriel. However, the next 260 pulls was utter despair. I basically pulled Grea (Gold Moon), Vane, Metera (Gold Moon) Quetzalcotl and Prometheus.
-On the last day of legfest, roulette gave me a single 10 roll.....which thankfully, gave me Kumbhira and single handed-ly saved my spark from gutter. I then finished off the last 30 rolls with tickets (which predictably gave me 0 SSRs).
-Overall this was 7 SSRs in 300 pulls which is wayyy below average (2.33%). I'm extremely delighted though since I managed to get both Kumbhira, Anila and not to mention Gabriel in one Spark. Quality > Quantity
-Sparked: Anila
Kumbhira first impressions
I've heard that she's insane for Zeus Grids but so far in my mostly completed M2 Light Grid, she feels like an above average/good character. She's the buffer that Light Magna has been begging for, yet at the same time she's not. Her buff is not consistent due to lack of DATA (well TA specifically). This makes it quite difficult to stack her Reckless Abandon without it dropping off since she already has a somewhat low base MA rate.
Until she gets her eventual buff, she will need some sort of grid supplement to get her performing in Magna grids.
eg:
Chevira/Amira/Kumbhira with Hollowsky Axe.
Seruel/Amirra/Kumbhira with Ultima Spear.
Looking forward
After doing Kumbhira's Fate Episode, I am very inclined to go after Andira next since she seems very adorable (not to mention she's getting her FLB soon). However, the legfest pool is frankly getting very unappealing, the remaining Grand Story characters that I've not gotten feel very subpar (Have Lecia/Katarina atm). The only primal grid I use is Agni as well meaning that most legfest Grand Weapons have little appeal to me.
