Get new Snow Soul Fragments from Sacrifice and use them on unique Specials Store items, including the debut Snow Talisman!

From now until December 21st at 4 PM PT, Snow Fragments are event rewards that appear as a bonus from each tier of Sacrifice, in addition to normal sacrifice rewards:


Tier I sacrifices have a bonus of 5 Snow Soul Fragments
Tier II sacrifices have a bonus of 10 Snow Soul Fragments
Tier III sacrifices have a bonus of 35 Snow Soul Fragments
Tier IV sacrifices have a bonus of 125 Snow Soul Fragments
Tier V sacrifices have a bonus of 400 Snow Soul Fragments
Tier VI sacrifices have a bonus of 1500 Snow Soul Fragments
Tier VII sacrifices have a bonus of 5000 Snow Soul Fragments
Vortexes have a bonus of 2500 Snow Soul Fragments, and 50 Blood Soul Fragments (in addition to normal Vortex rewards and normal sacrifice rewards)


These event fragments can be used in 2 ways:
1) Use 400 Snow Fragments to claim a Snow Soul. The Snow Soul is guaranteed to grant a 4* Magus Possessed Snowman! This Snowman can be placed back into the Sacrifice Chamber to gain high Essence Value!
2) Snow and Blood Fragments can be used in the Special Store on limited time items!

Items available for Snow Fragments include:

5* Colorless XP x10 (50 Snow Fragments, 5/week)
5* Colorless Rune Evo x9 (75 Snow Fragments, 5/week)
XP Boost x1 (100 Snow Fragments, 1/day)
Ironite x25 (150 Snow Fragments, 1/day)
Frontier Coin x25 (250 Snow Fragments, 1/day)
Snow Talisman (Arcane) x1 (200 Snow Fragments, 1/week)
Snow Talisman (Power) x1 (200 Snow Fragments, 1/week)
Snow Talisman (Sorcery) x1 (200 Snow Fragments, 1/week)
Charlotte Soul Fragments x10 (250 Snow Fragments, 1/day)
Final Frontier Eddie Fragments x10 (450 Snow Fragments, 1/day)
Legendary Soul x 1 (500 Snow Fragments, 3/week)


Snow Talismans are blue talismans with a 3 set effect that is not available anywhere else! Equip a full set to gain a Snow Shield for 2 turns at the start of battle as well as Immunity to Freeze, Stun, and Taunt effects.

See the Night City Mega Event Post for a full list of store items available for Blood Fragments.

BONUS: Complete Sacrifice themed Event Challenges for Blood Fragments, Final Frontier Eddie Fragments, a full set of Mark Talismans and MORE!

Finally, Mark Talismans are also obtainable from the store for Ironite or IAP. You can get one talisman to finish making a set for Ironite, and if you’d like to get a full set of the talisman with some bonus Ironite, Gold and Sands of War, there is a one-time only offer as an IAP.



Did you know you can double your rewards for a sacrifice? Doing a sacrifice with a higher amount of essence than the minimum required gives you a chance of getting double rewards based on how much you’ve exceeded the essence requirement. If you double the essence required for a tier, you’ll be guaranteed to get double the rewards!

Now is when I really really REALLY wish we could redeem multiple souls from fragments at one time. My initial sacrifices netted at almost 40k snow fragments.

Well, so far the RNG gods have been kind to me. Started the event throwing the 10 Night Souls I purchased earlier into the well and I actually got The Killer. Then after completing my skull quests I went back and threw a Mythic Soul in the well and got The Madam who I needed. Hoping I pull Icarus, Crusader Eddie and Phantom Eddie before this is over. Any thoughts on the new Snow Talisman?

I already have that snow soul character so I haven't really turned any fragments into souls yet.

Of course, I now have 17675 fragments (after buying pretty much everything in the store) that I haven't even touched yet.

Is there a maximum number of fragments you can have of one type?

Thats not bad for a L6. you could get a lot more rare souls that'd give you 3* dupes instead! Ofc you could also have gotten skill shards. I suppose how good that really is, will depend on what you pull from the leg souls!

But I want to know how you got so many snow frags for just a VI sac!?

6 vortex down, more to come! I was going to count what I have but lost interest as it was late here in the UK - but I must have been through over 100 snowmen......the really odd things is even with all the sacking the only new NC character so far is the green trickster from all the souls I have sacked....! LOL you have to laugh! Still I may be able to get some more with the specials purchases......eventually!

Cefiar
12-14-2018, 11:31 AM
I stuck to Level V (9000) or a double level V (18000 - twice the rewards of level V), rather than level VI (20000).

Note: I know that you can have at least 44845 Snow Soul fragments at once. ;) Not sure if there's a limit yet.

Is it better to get snowmen souls and keep sacrificing or just hold on to what you have and spend throughout the season? Aren’t there diminishing returns on the snowmen? Also should I power up said snowmen before sacrificing or just run them in as is?

scott-5496
12-14-2018, 12:48 PM
I am aiming to get Killer Prime, Banshee and the Officer from the specials store with my blood fragments from the vortexes I have done - lost count but now only one away from Killer Prime, then will try for Banshee. It is taking a lot of time to do but hopefully I will have these two over the next day or so

scott-5496
12-14-2018, 12:50 PM
I am powering up snowmen at the moment and using them - roughly four or five level VI sacs gets a vortex - usually use a five star, some snowmen and other fodder to get a level VI where you get very decent snoa frags and other rare souls...helps to keep it ticking over!

12-14-2018, 01:11 PM
So far, one full vortex: received 50 rare gunner/assassin souls+ 5 000 snow shards + 13 skill shards + rewards from the event.
From those souls, after pulling out 3* dupes, I received Asssassin children of the damned (FINALLY) + Prisoner (FINALLY).
I also got another Beast eddie from rare soul. My third one this week (>for sacrifice).
Legendary (as usuals) gave me 4* only. 1 warrior mystical gave me another samourai eddie (>for sacrifice)

Yep I was doing the same, though mostly double V - 9 snowmen

That was once I ran out of ALL my upgrade shards of course!

Esquatcho
12-14-2018, 01:45 PM
So... Im pretty much done for this event. Have a few k of snow shards left for purchases later. But for now, I am super happy. Im unhappy I ran out of all my shards though, as I have money left over after a sacathon for once!

Anyway, 20 NEW CHARACTERS! WOOT!

Granted a lot of 4* that I was missing, but still very happy:

New Eddies: Piece of Mind, Seventh Son, Nevigator, Carriage Rider, Rainmaker
New Allies:
W Allied Soldier, W Hellraised,
S Corrupt Rescuer, S Harpy, S Mayan Priestess, S Pyro
M CotD, M Valkyrie, M Undead Rescuer,
G Chopper, F Hellraised,
A Hellraiser, A Mayan priestess, A Pyro

And then on my last vortex (only just made it) I finally got the Alchemist!

Going to take a while to build up again!

So if purchasable items will be around till “early January” you have the potential to earn around 250 Frontier Eddie Frags at a cost of 11250 snow frags. That’s going on a Jan 8 cut off date. No hard proof of the cutoff date but that’s still a consideration for people who don’t do a ton of Gauntlet.

How early January ?

The charlotte fragments for example, are 1 per day. Say you needed 300 fragments to get Charlotte, that's 30 days. Which would take you to the 13th January. But if you can't get them after say January 8th, then you'd be 50 short, which would be really annoying, to get 90% of the way there, only to fail to complete things.

500 frags to get Charlotte. But if you played gauntlet and are a bit short, it's very useful.

I already have 6 000 frags and will keep some to buy FC so I can have my A Lilith quite quickly.

Yeah. I know it's 500 total. I have like 250 odd, because I didn't have enough characters to get past about grade B in the gauntlet, so I'd have to spend a lot of these snow fragments to get Charlotte, but if the charlotte fragments would become unavailable before I'd be able to get the 500, then... I'd prefer to spend the snow fragments on something else.

Ok I understand.

I will have Charlotte at the end of this gauntlet and as I will have some remaining frags, I was wondering if it was interesting to buy charlotte frags with the snow frags. I decided not to and prefer buy frontiers frags to have it faster.

Haven't had much in terms of new characters, though I did get my first Clansman and a Prisoner on Sniper, where I didn't have him, so pleased with that. Had several Eddies such as POM, VHE and Mystic, which was quite nice. Really liking this event and the thousands upon thousands of fragments :p ! Thank you devs!

For anyone still looking for The Killer, notice that you can still convert Blood Fragments into Night Souls, which also drop Killer Soul fragments! I'm not going to do the math, but it seems that if you buy one Night Soul every day, you may just end up at the needed 750 Killer fragments (considering what you most likely already have).

24.5 vortex fills are needed (if you did not buy event souls to get more than the 75 blood fragments to start with).
This was exhausting and very time and gold consuming. As I did not profit from the gold and crimson bug at that time I don't know if I can go for the next 10 vortex for the Talis or more to get event souls...

Congrats on getting your Alchemists guys!

That sounds about right Blade. I ended up with 3 Alchemist dupes. I just kept going till I got the 3 blood fragment characters. Since the pumpkin sacrifice event, I've been building my gold back up because these events require so much of it. I was up to about $60 million, but now I'm down to $23 million. I did have about 200 skill shards before the event started because I tend to hold onto them, but it seems like every sacrifice they were giving me shards with this event. I wish there was a 'claim all' button for the snowmen though!

Sorry to hear that you can’t get Charlotte man. How many more Charlotte fragments do you need after the end of the season? Besides, you have until the 21st to chase for more snow fragments.

Also, you can buy trooper souls and precious souls after tonight’s reset. Maybe you will lucky and summon a 5* heart.
And farm LOL for the next few days as they drop quite a bit of 1* souls. Every bit counts :)

Thanks Waffen!

Right now I have 220 Charlotte frags. I've never made it past A, but with my haul of chars after this sac, maybe I can get an extra 75. So 295 all up.

@250 snow frags per 10, I'll need 7,375.

I've currently got 2,345. Or only enough to get me to 389 or so.... And Im not even close to the next vortex (I really used everything up!).

Realistically, i'll need another couple of vortexes to get there. Which, is not going to happen unless I sac some 5* one-offs.

I've just got to be happy I finally got Alchemist, even though in hindsight it might have been better to go for Charlotte as Alchemist can always come later.

Anyway, learning experience!

That said, @Kaz, will there be other different chances for Charlotte frags before the gauntlet ends (or after the guantlet)?

You would want to do that if you are chasing for the killer fragments. Every 15 blood soul fragments give you a night soul.
Each night souls drops 5 blood souls and 10 killer souls and of course a chance at the killer himself from the night soul.

Hope that helps!

Realistically, i'll need another couple of vortexes to get there. Which, is not going to happen unless I sac some 5* one-offs.

I've just got to be happy I finally got Alchemist, even though in hindsight it might have been better to go for Charlotte as Alchemist can always come later.

Anyway, learning experience!

That said, @Kaz, will there be other different chances for Charlotte frags before the gauntlet ends (or after the guantlet)?

Wait, if you are only missing 205 Charlotte fragments then your math doesn’t add up lol.

Every 10 Charlotte fargs cost 250 snow fragments.
So 250 snow frags * 21 = 5250 is what you need.

So you need 2905 more snow fragments.
That’s 2 level VI sacrifices as they give you 1500 snow frags each.

You would want to do that if you are chasing for the killer fragments. Every 15 blood soul fragments give you a night soul.
Each night souls drops 5 blood souls and 10 killer souls and of course a chance at the killer himself from the night soul.

Hope that helps!

Thanks Waffen. Already have the Killer. I'm after Killer Prime. I guess I'll just head de to be patient...

No, they won't.

Below is from Kaz a couple pages back, in the context of Blood Fragment shop items:

"Oh yes, it should be noted that the Night Soul is the one item that will change at every major leg of the Night City Mega Event. It will be replaced by the next Night City related Event Soul."

Yep, considering Im an engineer, that is hugely embarrasing! Only defence is that it was quite late, but still pretty shameful.

With the new event, Im pretty confident I can make it now. Im halfway there and Ill be getting close with the arena event now. Woot! Its on!

Thanks mate!

Woot! 500 snow frags today. Looking much more doable to get Charlotte in time! Just as long as I have right up to the 12th to buy the frags with snow (and I dont forget any days)!

First of all thanks for this great sacrifice event! The pumpkins aren't that long ago and again we see such a great event where we can work towards guaranteed rewards plus some really nice goodies and bonuses - great! Also, the overlap with the Arena event is welcome.

But for me, this is the most time consuming sacrifice event ever! Several hours a day is really hard. There clearly is a need for a possibility to claim more souls from fragments in one rush. Don't get me wrong, the animation where the souls is built is really cool, I love it, but it is getting a bit old to watch it >60 times a day! The animation is done like there are different results possible, creating some excitement...but this is not needed here, only for opening souls with potential different results.

Dear devs, please consider to have the claiming souls hud like the one for using xp or Talisman shards/runes, being set to "use all" as the standard and then you have this slider to decrease or increase the number of souls you want to claim. Or if this needs too much change in the code, some checkboxes like for opening souls (claim all / claim 10) would be a good start.

I like the event but not much the amount of gold needed to summon a Snowman, 50000 is too much IMO.
Now farming to get gold and upgrading characters, fortunately we have XP boost for 100 fragments.

Very true! 1/10 of the price would have been fine I think. Those freaking snowmen did cost me about 35 Millions already and it will continue!

Just a friedly reminder about the gold and crimson event glitch: Things like this HAVE an influence, definitively...maybe not directly but in the long run - like now with these gold demanding events! Therefore I think it should be clear now that if such a glitch happens (which is always possible), there MUST be some sort of compensation in the future.

Are people upgrading their snowmen before sacrificing them? Or do you just throwing them in as level 1, 4 stars?

edsel
12-17-2018, 03:20 PM
I exhausted gold and sellable resources on this and the pumpkins. 5000000 for opening 99 stacks of frosty fellows and then sacing 10 per tier 6 over and again yielded almost 100k snow crags and got Killer P and Banshee. Was good to clear out dusty unused talisman sets for gold to keep running. Level 50 sets of Quake, Zone and Comet gave millions. Mega refill Powerslave auto runs give over a million and generate much ironite making the 150 purchase price only about 50. I dumped all dupe Eddies and extra allies, all souls except a 99 stack of Heroic. What a thrash. Now I have to start rebuilding for next sac.

These blood frags are supposed to be available throughout this winter long event, but currently only through 50 per vortex. You know I had to do so f ing many to get both Killer Prime and Banshee, 1250 frags and I started out with 325. This is 19 vortexes worth of every spare character and soul I had. No powering up snowmen as Blade notes, cuz I'm broke broke broke. But on the plus side I sharded every Eddie and ally except a few dupe blockers with 280 shards in reserve. Nothing like Scott packing over 1000 shard inventory, must be a record! These generous sac events really drain resources like gold and xp but payoff in OP characters and skill shards is addictive!

Hi

I'm not sure, but my thoughts are that at the moment the frags of blood souls are appearing as bonuses in the events, I think if you have already fulfilled all of this event, only with vortex to get more blood soul frags, until the next events components of the mega event that is happening.

Also, regarding the characters available to buy with these frags, I'm wondering if there will be any Assassin or Gunner?

Hi,
i have one question to the experienced players here. The last sacrifice event with the pumkins was easy to go on until gold runs out. Pumpkins where coming with enough other souls to get around and complete vortex by vortex.
But here in this sac event i have to use 4 snowman for a tier 5 sacrifice (9000essence) only giving back 1 snoman with the 400 snow fragments. additionaly i get no more than 6 or 7 souls but most 3* only seldom a 4*
So i have no chance to go on unless i start sacrificing my double eddies or double 4 and 5 star (but i want to keep them for gauntlet). Any hints how you reach more vortex? Or did you save up so many useless triple or more 4* and 5* to get around often enough?

good question, i was wondering the same...i got enough to get the red banshee, but if we have time to collect blood frags till february, i'll keep them to get Killer Prime.

edit: it seems it will last for all the mega event duration, this is what Leviathan wrote in the relative thread:

"The Night City Mega Event is a winter-long series of events that will feature a number of collectible characters associated with Night City.

Throughout the course of this event you will be able to collect Blood Fragments which can be traded in for unique items in the Specials Store.

Blood Soul Fragments are the central event currency for the Night City Mega Events and will drop or be rewarded in all associated events."

I found that going with 10 unleveled snowmen, 2025 essence, gives you a tier 6 which is 1500 extra frags. If you level them to 80 they give 2700 essence each and you need 20000 essence for tier 6. 30 snowmen will get you close to a vortex and that will give you an extra 2500 snowman frags and 50 blood frags. I leveled a few snowmen but I mixed and matched to get closest to 20k essence everytime and was able to gather about 500 Blood Frags from Vortex and still end up with 35k snowman frags left. The returns are always diminishing but you can at least get the most value going for tier 6 when you can. I only leveled snowmen when I needed a few more essence. I always kept 20k in frags so I did most of my rotations with 15000 Snowmen frags and other 4* and 5* characters that I had gotten from dropping other souls.

Non-Gunner/Assassin 4* characters give you only 1800 essense each. I think G/A are 2000?

Tim28213

Yeah, I noticed this right away, and was rather disappointed.
The event notices says :

Use 400 Snow Fragments to claim a Snow Soul. The Snow Soul is guaranteed to grant a 4* Magus Possessed Snowman! This Snowman can be placed back into the Sacrifice Chamber to gain high Essence Value!
The pumpkins were 3,000 right out of the gate.

Guess someone didn't do the math at Halloween and it was too good, so it's been scaled back.

Ok LOTB troopers I have a question, I'd love some feedback on please, If you already had a fully skill sharded, fully levelled up Charlotte, and you just got enough frags to claim a second Charlotte.
Do you:
A. Sacrifice the second Charlotte during the current sacrificial event?
B. Hang on to such a valuable character you may never have two of them again?
C. Power up and then sacrifice?

I can't decide really tempted to sacrifice her...

scott-5496
12-18-2018, 11:06 AM
Keep her for sure. I try to keep[ dupes of any characters that will serve me in some way - be it Gauntlet, LOL or for specific missions/passives or what tallies they can carry (six sets for example).

I am a bit away myself - not sure if I can make a second or not!

One odd thing for this event and not sure why but it was just Magus sonwmen we coudl get yet others exist - why were they nto included - will they appear somewhere else? Also they were altered in the update recently for essence but they did not appear - were they pulled last minute due to an issue/bug?

Also, and this is a real grump from me - no chat at all on Coalgiver for these xmas events - Krampus has an event to himself but nothing for us to get Coalgiver.....or will he be the final present in 12 days I wonder? That is the only thing I can think of as he must be somewhere (unless i missed something) as he too got an update recently.....

To be honest.. For that reason I'm a bit scared to spend all my snow soul fragments because I don't know if these will also be useful for the Krampus event.
It does say Christmas event in the description and not particular sacrifice event.

Blade
12-18-2018, 12:32 PM
I am pretty sure we will see the classic x-mas soul including Coalgiver, Snowmen, Krampus and the Reindeers but yes, we don't know exactly when and how they will be introduced. Maybe the upcoming dungeon drops fragments for these souls? We will have to wait and see. I also like planning to be as effective as possible, but sometimes it is also ok to not know exactly what will happen - some excitement is welcome - that's why we wrap those christmas presents usually :)

BTW I made a stupid mistake as I had overseen that we can only claim one event soul per day at the moment purchased with blood frags...so I missed out on some during the last days as I wanted to convert my left over blood frags to event souls in the end. Don't do the same mistake!

Hello everyone.

Just popping in here to let you all know that I have just corrected the listed event rewards in this event post. As I'm sure you may have noticed, Sacrifices that were Tier 4 and up were providing many more Snow Soul Fragments in-game than what was previously listed here.

This was a transcribing error, and it has since been corrected.

For clarity, the true event rewards are as follows:


Tier I sacrifices have a bonus of 5 Snow Soul Fragments
Tier II sacrifices have a bonus of 10 Snow Soul Fragments
Tier III sacrifices have a bonus of 35 Snow Soul Fragments
Tier IV sacrifices have a bonus of 125 Snow Soul Fragments (previously listed as 75)
Tier V sacrifices have a bonus of 400 Snow Soul Fragments (previously listed as 150)
Tier VI sacrifices have a bonus of 1500 Snow Soul Fragments (previously listed as 250)
Tier VII sacrifices have a bonus of 5000 Snow Soul Fragments (previously listed as 500)
Vortexes have a bonus of 2500 Snow Soul Fragments, and 50 Blood Soul Fragments (in addition to normal Vortex rewards and normal sacrifice rewards)


Cheers \m/

Yeah I thin kwe can do with a nice and clear statement from the devs on the longevity of various things that are currently live - do we need to spend all snow frags before the end of the sac event? Is it worth keeping the Killer frags, will they return? Do we keep blood souls frags until when? I just think if we had an post form the team that sets things out in one place instead of across multiple news feeds - I am just not that clear on whether it is worth keeping stuff and until when.

Night Souls are a real crapshoot. I bought several 10 packs and never got the exclusive Red Chopper - then bought a single soul with Blood frags and got him.

I think the Choppers passive makes him probably the best of this rounds “exclusives”, but considering the Banshee is a sure thing and the Night soul isn’t - I’d go for the Banshee

I think leviathan confirmed in one of the posts earlier that the purchasable items with snow fragments will be available until January 12th. Personally, I made a list of items I will be buying daily/weekly with snow fragments and kept aside about 13k fragments.

As far as blood fragments go, all I know is that they will be available until the NF event ends in February. But I would love to hear more details from the devs so we can plan accordingly. I currently have 730 and I think I have 2 more vortex fills in me before this sac event ends. Which means I won’t be able to get killer prime until the next NF event :/

What is up with the rewards from Tier 5 and above in the Bone Pit now ? The Kinds of rewards are WERE getting are now gone....as in so many Rare Souls, Legendary Souls, Rare Gunner/Assassin Souls. Now we're given just Skill Shards and maybe one Legendary Souls...Or maybe just all Skill Shards

What happen ? Did you think you're being cute and tweak this ?
If so...you just ruined the Sacrifice Chamber and all future Sac Events

And this is being reported on behalf of thousands of group Members in a group that has been talking about this for the whole Sac Event this month

It does seem like it was a bit off to me too, actually. I did get a few G/A rare 20s, and some rare souls, but most of the time, for 6's, I seemed to come up with just Skill Shards.

If things are ending on the snow frags front on the 12th (I am not including the 12th in my calcs) then I think I will need around 16100 (one day up or down) to cover me for Charlotte and FFE snow purchases in the store - I think they are both buyable until the 12th of January. So I can get a good way towards FFE and get a second Charlotte. If on top of that I want to buy the other snow related stuff every day I need another 11500 (or so) snow frags to see me through the to the 12th. So around 27,600 frags to get everything between now and the 12th assuming of course that there are no other ways to get snow frags after the current sac event finishes. Is that about right if anyone else has tried to work it out?

Should we keep Charlotte frags beyond this - I think I read somewhere that they will be available after season 1 (like th epones we can buy) but I assumed there may be other events where Charlottle frags are possible?

Killer frags, do we keep them too as I have not got a lot as I dont buy soul packs?

Again it might be useful to get the devs to feedback on these things as I cant be the only one trying to figure out buying startegies?

Cheers

I've been away from the board and assumed the store purchases using snow fragments would end with the event. But I saw the post from Kaz saying they are available until early January....I didn't see a post stating a date though (possible I missed it though) so has the 12th of Jan been confirmed?

At this point Ive bought the talismans, f/c, ironite and even xp boosts each day. But avoided charlotte and FFE frags as I figured 70-80 frags wouldnt be anywhere near enough to gain a dupe of each character and therefore converting to precious soul frags seems a waste...But an extra 2-3 weeks or so for purchases changes things. I currently have 140 charlotte frags and should get either 145/175 more once current gauntlet season ends giving me 285 or 315 frags. Around 20 days would be needed so January 12th should be enough time. But if its not id hate to get so close to a dupe only to convert all those frags. Hmmmm what to do?

As for the rest of the event, I've gotten some new characters but still chasing 2 shinobis and the assassin derby demon. Seems they will have to wait until the next event. I have done enough vortexes to get me the killer prime though so thats a good thing :)

I also got mostly Skill Shards. Sucks, too, cause I was hoping to land a nice cache of new characters I've missed out on the last 7 months. Instead, I walked away with a Crusader Eddie. That's it. The Skill Shards were still welcome, though, since I need them anyway. A few newer characters would have been nice to use all these Skill Shards on...

Hmmmm, got my first alchemist dup. Planning to sac him, but just wanted to check with fellow troopers if there is any reason I shouldn’t?

I guess I am a little hesitant because he is my first alchemist dup ever lol.

I'd keep him. He could be usefull for possible coming magus gauntlet challenge.
I kept 3 of him just in case...

Yeah I think I’m gonna keep him, thanks.I am completely broke anyways, don’t have enough gold to fill up another vortex....

I am 30 blood fragments short of getting the killer prime. I guess I have to wait until next NC event for more fragments.

If your roster is deep enough and you have quite a few relics you really don't need any dupes for Gauntlet. I find it rather challenging to only use one of each kind (and I don't want to shard dupes) per level - part of the fun. That said - it should be the rule for the enemy as well - one of a kind each level. Or at least the talisman setups should be fair.

If you don't have a deep deep roster I'd keep him as well as he can be useful the grades where you are alowed to use dupes. Once you reach SS dupes don't matter so much and therefore it's better to broaden your roster.

I agree, I do not have ANY dupe and can go through 2 full rounds of SSS...

As Gauntlet has progressed I have started letting go of more and more of my dupes as well. There are a few I've saved just because there are some arena combinations I always "wanted to try". A year ago they might have worked, but now they are old and gimmicky so it is purely nostalgia that has me holding on to most dupes at this point.

I burned a lot of dupes during this event to get skill shards and new characters.

I didn’t have a deep roster or adequate relics until this event lol. I struggled a bit with gauntlet this season for that reason.

I know that dupes are not allowed starting SS. But AAA has always been a challenge for me due to the lack of deep roster and that is where dupes helped me.

However, thanks to the sac event I got a lot of new 4* characters. So next gauntlet season shouldn’t be as rough for me.
I just have to focus on upgrading most of them to 5* and I won’t be needing dupes anymore. 👍 to this sac event.

Thanks for all your input guys.
