I’ve been quite on the unlucky streak lately. I got no 5-stars on the Christmas or New Years’ Banners, even with all of the free Summon Tickets we received.
In summary, we received:
- 5 tickets for the Gods Renewed banner
- 10 tickets for the Double Special Heroes (ω) banner
- 3 tickets for Shez Legendary Hero banner
- 3 tickets for last year’s Christmas banner
- 3 tickets for 2 years’ ago Christmas banner
Orb Saving Journey
I’ve been aggressively saving up my orbs for the AHR 2023 banner. I haven’t been spending any orbs on summoning on any of the recent banners since Arval’s debut banner (end of October 2022). The unit that I have that is the newest is Askr. All these new unit releases were so tempting to summon on: Ninja Camilla, Embla, Legendary Veronica, Black Knight, Legendary Shez, Duo Cordelia, New Year Askr. I was considering summoning on the Ganglot banner so I could give Flame Emperor the Arcane Axe. I probably could have gotten a good chunk of these if I spent my orbs on those banners instead of saving them up like this.
Between now and then, the 5-star heroes I’ve gotten are 4-star specials from the Arena, tempest trial 5-stars, or off-focus units. The Arena streak tickets are very helpful as they are my main source of 5-star heroes at the moment. So far with those, I’ve gotten Petra, Ophelia, Selkie, Nino, and Silque. My original strategy was to go blue for Brave Hector as I have him at +5 from the years of random summons. However, the chance of getting him 5 times especially with this large of randomization led me to just start picking Colorless orbs because they contain the most units I don’t have, as I rarely summon on that color normally.
Finally
Today, my bad luck streak has been broken, and now my most-recent unit is Harmonic Linde! I’m super happy that I finally got a new unit after a couple of months.
I got a neutral IV, I’ll take it.
As you can see from the screenshots, I’ve saved up 756 orbs at the moment. Ever since Arval’s Mythic Banner, I’ve been saving every orb for AHR 2023. I’m really hoping that all 4 heroes are going to be one color, and with the new Harmonized Linde, the red color is looking even stronger!
