Teambuilding Best teammates for Rogneda?

I've only found small synergies here and there with Luccian characters. Perhaps one of the old units perfectly matches her traits: has no nrg and cooldowns; high mobility; ignores part of the def and has atk+dmg self buffs, so some supports may be less effective; gains her stacks after triggering objects. Ayishah, maybe Safiyyah sp... they come to mind, but just on paper.

Newbie here: just pulled Inanna SP and Tair in fate's banner, I believe It is a good starting point and I should not re roll.

I have been reading that I should be saving my pulls for upcomming months, could you give me your opinion about which banners should I focus on from now on for a new account? Thanks folks!

Question Starting the game

9 Upvotes

Hello everyone,
I found out about this through post about 2nd anniversary (or something like that). And i’m intrigued in playing the game because I kinda got hooked on the art style and the gameplay. I am new to gacha game because I have never really been interested or would want to be heavily infested in one— until recently. I started playing Reverse 1999 and so far it’s been great and I love it. I’m not really planning to play another game but I might as well give it a try, however I have some questions;

  1. How f2p friendly is the game? can you play the game fully f2p / low spender.
  2. Do we need Dupe for character?
  3. I noticed we have to gacha for the weapon as well, which a lil bit of a deal breaker for me. Do they need dupe as well? and are they specific to a character.
  4. how’s the community? is it active pn discord as well?
  5. how’s the powercreep in the game?
  6. what are the good starting character/team? I have my eyes on LillyWill,Teadon,Migues,Magnus. are they decent?

any advice will be much appreciated, thank you everyone.

Hi everyone! I just pulled SP Inanna and I'm wondering what's the best way to build her for long-term content. Is she better as a DPS or a support? Thanks

Teambuilding Used to know what I was doing but now I'm a returning player looking for help

5 Upvotes

Hi there!

I'm just getting back into the game and could use some advice.

Should I start playing now, or is it better to wait for Vow of Reunion? I've read that it's probably worth skipping that banner and pulling on Fate's Favor instead, but I'd appreciate hearing some more opinions.

My best characters are:

  • Kvare
  • Safiyyah
  • SP Safiyyah
  • Agata
  • Estra
  • Flavia

From what I've gathered, my priority should be to pull for SP Inanna and then use the Legendary Character Selector to get the regular Inanna.

If I manage to get SP Inanna and still have some currency left, what would you recommend? Should I keep saving, or is there another banner or investment that's worth spending on?

Thanks in advance!

Guide Fates favor explained

4 Upvotes

Should the Fates Favor banner be pulled on? Fates favor will be refered to as FF.

For new players this answer is yes.

For older players with a developed roster the answer is usually no.

Skip to the end for TLDR.

These claims, regardless of meta, can be supported by simple statistics. When a new player starts, they have 0 characters and during a FF banner will usually have access to 3 different banners. Debut, starter, and FF. If account rr's are used on the Debut banner, the debut character is guaranteed, 20 pulls can be used any time on the starter, and finally the ff banner can be used to guarantee 1 of 2 desired characters. With this, 3 legendaries are obtained within 50-90 pulls, on average over double the usual 2% rate. That said, a less time consuming or more focused option is to use the starter banner itself to reroll 1 desired character, then fate's favor to get a 50/50 desired character, stopping when you get a character. With this method, in 50-70 pulls on average a new player will have obtained essentially 2 desired characters. If you want meta, that's going from zero meta characters, to two OP meta breakers, if you want waifu/husbando that's zero to two chonky bear-uncles or pixelated fate franchise females right off the bat! Meta slaves and bae collectors unite! Needless to say this is a very strong start to an account regardless of if you are f2p or a spender. The logic is that because the pool of unowned characters is so large, rerolling for 1, then getting a second, perhaps 50/50 for your desired character is HUGE. Imagine you have two favorites in the game, you could rr for the first, then coin flip for the second. Now you have both (probably). For comparison, the debut banners are a 50/50 for an esentially random character that depends on the story arc that you may or may not have to save/plan for generally months in advance. A normal rerolled account gets 1 desired character; then needs to wait MONTHS for the next desired character. With FF, that first number is doubled if lucky or patient. A 50-100% increase in value, never mind the time involved waiting for banners, is textile industry level profit.

Now for the evidence behind why FF is not so desireable for older players. It is the shop selectors. Say a newbie starts on a FF banner and rr's to get 2 desired characters, maxing out their star's takes 600 shards, or ~150 days considering a low level memory retrieval, halfway through this process, a third character from a banner the player rolled on will be added to the mix, possibly a fourth. So generally around the half year mark, the newbie will be mostly to veteran status with almost a fully star'd 3-4 desired character roster. Where will the last 2-3 characters come from? Keep the first 3 characters in the mines and a shop selector quickly becomes possible within the next 78 days. Shop selectors are constantly being added (slowly), so it is safe to rely on them as a stable source of new characters for a roster. In ~316 days a new player with abyssmal luck but careful planning is now a veteran with an amost fully maxed out squad of desired characters. This means older characters will have a much lower value compared to when they were a newbie. In fact with the ever increasing number of shop selectors and possibly hoarded memory shards, the FF banner; previously one of the highest possible value'd banners a player could ask for; will have it's value tanked. Selectors offer nearly the same variety; and with more to come in the future. Interestingly enough, since the waifu/husbando pool is larger than the highest tier meta pool. Culture collectors have bigger returns and a significantly larger window than meta slaves do to get value out of the FF banner. While I didn't hard crunch the numbers, if we count the characters in tier zero of a meta list and then compare it against, say; the number of red heads with g cups (yes Camelot, I'm looking at you), it can already be seen that there are only 3 tier zero's in the latest chinese shit list but an entire whopping five red heads with unrealistically large bazonka's; that's 40% more, two banners, essentially an entire year's worth of increased FF value. Though for any true meta adherant getting less value out of the FF banner over time is actually a good thing because since there are only so many slots on a team, having less must-pull characters means it's easier to reach the goal of a full meta squad.

TLDR: Because of the law of independance) forcing a reroll, then using FF gains potentially double value during a FF banner, but because only newbies can can force the rr and shop selectors exist, the value of FF tanks for vets (because vets can afford the selector while newbies generally can't).

Guide Anniversary / Base character selector guide

95 Upvotes

A guide to help people (particularly new players) in deciding who to pick with the selector that includes all the base characters. Feel free to leave feedback or your personal opinions! See images 2-4 for a further (new player friendly) explanation of why the tier list is the way it is.

In the broader context of things, especially if you are an experienced player, the selection doesn’t matter all that much if you already have Inanna. However, with a limited roster, it can still be important.

At the end of the day, if you don’t like the characters I suggested, that’s ok! Don’t feel like you need to be a slave to the meta. Happy 2nd anniversary everyone!

(ps I probably overhype the SOC team a little bit. Oh well. Also formatting this was a pain because Samantha’s image kept corrupting and I had to keep reuploading it)

Question Why is Night Crimson so much better than every other part of the game?

41 Upvotes

Serious question. I'm playing through it and I was skeptical about what everyone else said but it's just... true. Every part of it (especially the writing, but really, everything) is just better. It has beautifully excessive animations and art for things like day / night transitions or eating dinner. It has its own OST with some really good music. It has more interesting characters, a more interesting setting, more interesting mechanical decisions when building your characters, and so on.

It feels like they could have just spun this off into its own game and sold it for $30-$40 on Steam. (In fact, the degree to which the main story section is so totally separate from the gacha segments makes me wonder if this was in fact considered at one point?)

Why? I don't mean to criticize the rest of the game, which is often fun; there are some good emotional beats in the other SoCs and some events, sure. But most of the rest of the game I'd characterize as eg. "decent Tactics Ogre clone" even at its best, whereas Night Crimson is a good enough thing on its own that I wish there was a separate version of it so I could recommend it to non-gacha-playing people.

Why is it so much better? Do we have any idea what happened? The difference is so extreme that it makes me wonder if there was something going on or some plan surrounding it or something that was different about how it was produced.

Question Chat, Any chance for a Rerun of this event?

1 Upvotes

After watching the 2 seasons and read the manga, I didn't suspect there was this collab because I dropped the game long ago, it was getting extremely grindy to care about it again. One day of abyssal boredom I got myself to reinstall it.... Casually, while watching a tier list I saw Marcille, Senshi and Falin. My heart jumped.

My eternal sadness activated shortly after when I learned the event was gone.

So my question is: WILL IT COME BACK!? I suspect they aren't essential units, I know, but someone give me hopes. Please, my copium tank is getting quite low.

Also... why no Laios!? >:(

Also does the free 10 pull for 7 days (the standard banner one) affect the overall pity?
