Stopped TM a few hours ago at 29M points, did 57 runs and probably shouldn't have bothered today since I'm stuck around rank 1300 no matter what. That's almost as many runs as I did the few times I got top 500. Probably needed to play 8h-10h a day and do over 100 runs to get in the top 1k with my teams. Totally not worth it, especially Kizuna Marco/Ace started on JP and is much more fun.
This TM is pure madness. Don't want to hear anyone ever ask again for 3x exp ship, more bento boxes on map or easily recruitable TM boosters. The worst part was having the top TM booster, RR Robin, being a pretty decent lead/friend captain. This is what happens when it's a "level playing field".... Just give me garbage TM sugos with terrible odds for TM boosters please T___T
Lemme go back to not playing the game >:[
D: D: D: D: I knew something was fishy when you didn't make your obligatory "Fuck TM, 1M and out!" post... Hope you farmed TM Smoker at least, he's a decent unit

Hope you enjoyed the RNG informational digest of my account!
Nice humble-brag. Joking, loved your post, very informationnal and made me go over my own 2019 archives. I wasn't as thorough as you with my gem counts recording but got about 2700-2750 gems this year so that that's pretty close to your own tally. It's incredible how many gems this game gives away for free, you wouldn't think. People assume it's like 1500 gems per year at max but it's way above 2000 gems.
2600 gems, that's 43 non discounted multis and closer to 60 if you count the discounted multis! Considering we get a big sugo every 3 months, can easily do 15 multis per big sugo if you don't waste them on the sugos in between.
Plus the number of free gems will go up in 2020, it's kept increasing (since there are so many legends nowadays, so the actual value of a gem is lower). I was down to 50 gems after JP NY sugo and now I'm already back to 424 gems with quite a few to farm from current events. Even if you remove the 50 gems for NY, that's over 300 gems in less than a month from Luffy/Zoro events, that's incredible.
When I have more time I might do a breakdown of the legends I got like you did. But I'm definitely very happy with the state of my box at the end of 2019. Though the last month definitely was incredibly lucky for me, the year would have been quite worse without that.
Sounds like Bullet is better :-( wished I save more gems for this event....
Don't worry at all! Honestly you'll probably have a better shot at getting Bullet or Stampede Luffy during Kaido/Anniversary. It's for the best, Anni is just around the corner, better to go ham on anni than do 3 multis for Bullet, 3 for Stampede Luffy and then just 3 for anni.
Thanks, I didn't know the characters reset with each TM, I'll definitely buy a handful of the useful ones now then!
As for my box, it's pretty well-developed, as I've been playing since launch but have taken some extended breaks in-between (just logged in daily and such). I really should get around to cataloguing it, but I always find it an extensive thing to do since I hoard a copy of everything for my collection, so filling things out is a nightmare, haha.
To add to what Heng said, it's much better to buy one or two units and get their LB mats than buying a copy of each TM unit. Most of them are completely useless without their LB. You can see on the database the LB breakdown for each unit.
In example, looking at
Nami, one of the best TM characters, you can see that without any LB, her special maxes out at 26 turns, which is unusable. Also she can be a decent captain for TM if you need to use her but need to get her to LB 39 to unlock her full captain ability.
You don't need to max out every single TM unit you buy you need to make sure their special CD is at the minimum at least.
I agree that Nami, Shanks, Enel, Weevil and Big Mom are the most useful picks. Shanks especially is pretty hard to replace even with RRs or legends.
Late discovery in desperation after fucking up Brook's attack boost: you can reroll Smoker's color switch
I knew that but I couldn't be bothered because loading takes forever now for me. Just used FC Bullet instead, even though it tanked my multiplier.
Sigh.. feeling like you guys. That being said, I.. I hate you

Deep down you know you're enjoying this grind! Anything but working on your thesis :p
