Character Fragment Event, featuring EVENT EXCLUSIVE Magus Kari, Valkyrie Siren!

[Mercifal]

Been autoing fear and life VII all day at work when I can. Refilled at least twice so far. I've gotten 5 fragments to show for it.

Same here. I've been doing some gardens on VII and by far I got same ammount of fragments, which is 5. I'd slightly complain about drop rates, but I guess it's RNJesus who hates me lately.

Higher levels have better chances, try VIII and up if you can. Once I even got 50 fragments from level VIII.

So, now we going exclusive, huh? That's pretty fantastic! Pitty though that all the bugs and crashes are NOT being so exclusive, but commonly present everywhere, everytime in a massive scale hasn't seen before (see screenshot below - one of MANY I've encountered lately)...

Definitely manageable? For whom if I may ask?

As I am very short of IRS lately (blew hundereds of them for so called ''higher chances'' of getting certain characters and ended with nothing except bad taste left in my mouth)... It rather should be called ''let's WASTE all the ironities you people have, for might be buying more of them later and continue the fun''... I've tried to get some fragments at lower stages (GOL VI to be precise) as they are cheaper and less time consuming... So did couple of runs till I used all my IRS - and the gains were ''0'' (null) everytime! So now I am wondering if certain levels are ''blocked'' of getting fragments? It seems so...

There shouldn't be an event like that as you've said like ''click here'' but everything is pointed towards the fact to spend the most ca$h and supplies in the shortest amount of time possible - that's why it is called ''exclusive''... Where are the times gone of events lasting at least a week? Now it's for three days... What will be next? 1 day for ''hardcore players'' surely having enough fat wallets come to the rescue in case of something may go wrong and been throwing a lifeline at the store? Or ''ultimate exclusive'' event lasting couple of hours maybe? Why ever not? Let's have fun (at least some)...
So putting some characters into the store with adequately high price tag would be simply more fair as we are pretty close to that now - already you can buy 1/2 of character... Leaving all this ''free'' bullshits behind... Some day I've written here somewhere that we've been treatening like ''walking wallets'' - nothing has changed since that, and sad to say it's lookin' even worse... More ''bargains'', so called ''events'', ''cheap deals''... That's a pitty... Sure thing I wasn't born yesterday and I fully understand and accept that the game even if it's mistakenly called ''free'' was created just to make profits... All right - fine... But somehow's is NOT good and not FAIR if only one side has to have benefits of these investments... Let's face some facts here... The VAST majoirty of us, the players ARE playing DAILY - yes or no? So, why we are rewarded just for 24 days per month of play? I find it greedy... Lack of ideas of possible rewards? How about Legendary Soul been given once a month? It would be very nice and motivating even if it would end as a dupe... But nah, what I dare to expect? It's too ''exclusive'' for a daily reward, right devs? So maybe some ''bug immune talismans''?

Back to the ''event'' though... First run of GOF today, stage VII - buttons disappeared in some part of play... DEFEAT... 15 SoTs WASTED... So how can I stay positive... I do believe I am not gonna make it this way, even if decide to buy some SoTs refills... For what? To encounter even more crashes and God knows what else, but certainly not desired fragments?
After dozens of runs since yesterday's night - up to now I've scored 10 frags while game allowed me to play the battle to the end... With the store's free another 10 - it's 20... Somebody please tell me honestly if it's possible to get missing 180 just farming during 3 days apart of crashing and all that stuff happening while the game not helping me at all?

If any might be thought of bashing me how ungrateful son of a bitch I am - I will say that I am like that cause if supported the devs MANY times with my hard earned money and what I am getting in return? Pitty that they are WASTING them making no improvements in game stability, but inventing all new crashes and so bugs... I guess it's time to finish this ''genuinely fine breaking nerves'' event...

I'd better take a step back and leave this exclusive rat race...

Happy hunting for everyone else...

Promised screenshot...

P.S. Enti - Sorry... No badges for you today... Your champ is very cool... Pity she can't prevent the game from crashing, though...

Have a nice afternoon everyone

Cheers,

Wow... I think you misunderstood my post. I agree with pretty much everything you said. All what i was trying to say is that character fragments (for a good character) is way better than special souls (I stopped buying those a while ago). I wish they could just create a premium membership or something like that (I'm more than happy to subscribe) instead of the current system that directly target the wallet (it's understandable but to some extent).

This event is manageable (at least for me as I didn't waste my ironite on the "special" souls) in comparison with trying to get something out of a soul. You can refill 3 times the sand of time (that's 16 attempts) for the price of 1 brave new world.

I used to be pissed about the drops and the whole cash crab, but imo the best thing to do is to expect nothing (if a soul gives you the wicker man, burn it and make a bbq out of it) and don't waste real money (there is absolutely no difference between the current game system and gambling, I stopped wasting my money a while ago)

results for today 27 runs exclusive on level X gave me 90 frags. from what i read and hear that is in a normal range. so two refills gave me half of the valkyrie. (and don't forget the regular BNW loot in addition to this).

well yeah it took a lot of time to grind on X but it was fun as hell. not one single crash or something annoying. maybe emolators work much better than phones?

i really like the event and since we can get a new and somewhat exclusive char it's worth the grind and all the effort, so personally i cannot see a reason to complain.

but ofc, when the game is crushing all the time or you suffer from button disappearing i can understand the frustration.

all in all i think this is a very fine event.

[MrFreeze]

I do like that it's an event for a new and exclusive character. My earlier complaining was due more to frustration than anything. I must be on the low side of the rng. I'm at 100 frags finally with about 5-6 refills. Most on X except for the auto farming at work. It should be doable. If I don't get another 100 frags before Thursday evening, I'll probably be complaining again

[thealchemist]

I just wanted to say thanks for listening to the fans and putting Eddie back as the app logo!

Also Ive had more luck on floor VII in GoF than floor VIII so a higher floor is no guarantee of more fragments. I think its more about SoT cost and a lot of luck...if I didnt get a drop of 50 fragments I would have quit after first use of 80 SoT.

[JJJ428]

Juat got my 200 and not one 50 frag loot. But got tons of talismans I wanted. Also got one of the best worst roles ever. I actually got 3 talismans to drop but two were skilled. I think this event was worth it and don't why so many people complained in the beginning rare characters like this should be hard to get.

[BG840]

Multiple runs various dungeons ix and x I have yet to see a frag drop! Y'all think you're sneaky but I'm onto ya, this is the only way you could get us to play bnw. Lick some nuts nf

[thealchemist]

I just borrowed Mariner's Kari. Not sure if its useful for PVP but it should help for farming of BNW, at least GoF and possibly GoD with its 5 hits of magic. Helps break down those shield much quicker, especially if you don't have many other toons that are multiple hitters like me.

On a side note, we are meant to be getting 2* Iron and Strength talismans from floors VII and VIII in GoF? Why aren't they 3* like the strike, thorn and explosive that I have also gotten from these floors?

No, 2 star is not intended on floors VII and above. That was a data error on my part. My apologies.

I think I saw you post about that in another thread, so I prepared the fix for a server deploy we're doing later this week (getting event data ready for events later in September). Once that's live, it'll be like the other BNW dungeons (where only 3 star talismans drop on floors VII and above).
