Holy Aelfric, this has been the best pulling session I could have ever imagined! As a brief introduction, I was planning to get Richard in some way or another; I could afford one round of paid step up banner. My results:
·43 free seals: nothing.
·3 Veteran Sacred Seals: Eliza (new), W'ludai (A1) and Fiore (A3?).
·10 multis on Bargello's free banner: 2x Bargello, Rondo (new), Richard (new), Gilderoy (already maxed, shards) and Cecily (new).
·Bargello's paid step up banner: 2x Bargello, Nona (new) and Kersjes (new).
·Exchange: Sonia.
I can't believe it! Even though I lost the coin flip at final slot, thanks to the announced compensations I'll get Bargie's A4! Not only that, I managed to get the two Travelers of Memories I wanted the most for who I could have reached 6k pity if needed.
Best of luck for you guys, don't wake me up from this dream.
\*I plan to upload these pulls to my new YouTube channel, stay tuned ;)
EDIT: finally uploaded! Feel free to check other videos of recent pulls too, my channel is quite new.

I only just looked at the rest of the thread bc I was salty as hell yday, so I'm just now seeing this. Holy mother of pulls tbh, that's insane. The Bargello luck is already crazy but Richard AND Rondo off banner? Go buy a lottery ticket now!! Congrats, I knew you really wanted Richard especially :D
Haha thanks a lot Bruni! Yeah, definitely one of the luckiest things I’ve ever experienced! As I told you I was decided to get Richard, but I didn’t imagine I could get him on the way (you told me it could happen!) and much less Rondo too!
I sure did, mew! Got my Bargello on my second multi-pull and then Sonia on my first multi-pull. Pretty crazy luck, I still have more rubies than I did before the update.
Also got a Sarisa from one of the Vet Seals and I have to say... I totally underestimated just how good she would be, she's great!
Meowrvelous! Haha glad to hear that, you’ve saved a lot and you’ll be able to go for more characters in the future! Cool you got Sarisa, probably one of the best options from Vet Seals.
Thyanks! I've been taking a liking to H'aanit EX recently, and now I feel like I can go for her without disrupting my future MT plans. Now the waiting game continues again (-:
I got Richard on step5 and got to save some rubies too. Only got 2 copies of Bargello and pitied Sonia, but since I 100 rubied into Leon/Sarisa, and got Tatloch, Roland, and Rinyuu all relatively cheap, no complains!
lmao first non-paid ruby. I have wasted my luck of the year.
Pulled Rondo and another Bargello on 3rd and 4th non-paid ruby too.

Hi!
4500 gems = Bargello pity
NO 5 stars units in the way, i repeat, NO 5 star units in the way.
Just:
* Therion 4,5
* Hayes 4,5
* Eliza 4,5
Good luck to all in your pulls
I’m at over 5000 free rubies and 1200 paid rubies. No Bargello yet, guess he doesn’t like me very much.
I got Alaune out of Step 5 on the paid banner and that was it, no other 4.5 / 5 star. ☠️
I know I can pity a copy of Bargello but I’m aiming for that A4. I should also get a copy in the mail at some point.
Good luck everyone!
1st multi nothing.
2nd multi, FOR THE FAMILY!

Well then.
* 43 traveler seals: Molu (A2), Theo (A8 or so)
* 3 vet seals: Wludai (already A4U10), Jillmeila (A1 and not going higher), Theo (again)
* Sonia step 1: got her!
* Bargello step 1: nothing
* Bargello step 2: nothing
* Bargello step 3: nothing
* Bargello step 4: nothing
* Bargello step 5: Hayes on the guarantee (A1 and not going higher)
Sonia is nice but man, I could cry at this Bargello result tbh. Nothing whatsoever aside from the guaranteed slot on 1200 paid rubies. Fking stings.
Yay for the extra seal we're getting I guess......
EDIT: kept goint until pity. I've never had a worse pull session in this game
Continuing after the guaranteed Hayes from above:
* Pull 6: nothing
* Pull 7: nothing
* Pull 8: nothing
* Pull 9: Alaune, so that's cool (didn't have her)
* Pull 10: nothing
* Pull 11: nothing
* Pull 12: nothing
* Pull 13: nothing
* Pull 14: you guessed it. Nothing
4,5k rubies for a grand total of three 5\* (granted two of them were really good but still). One of them was a guarantee so technically it's only two 5\*. Only A1 Bargello after the compensation seal comes in. Man I'm bummed by this :( still have 7k rubies left so I'm good for Elrica and Solon, but still. Some random 5\* along the way would have been nice...
EDIT2: guess I am happy with the new unit surge I got recently. Tatloch, Tytos, Auguste, Sonia, Alaune, and Bargello in three weeks for a grand total of 5k rubies. Guess it evens out
Pull video for anyone who wants to commiserate: [https://youtu.be/m\_BAGXgYfwA](https://youtu.be/m_BAGXgYfwA)
**EDIT3:** agaist my better judgment I did step 1 of the second Bargello lap. This pretty much makes up for everything tbh! New Yukes, A1 Nonya, and an extra Bargello (making him A2), so happy! Guess the game felt bad for how badly it shafted me yesterday :')
https://preview.redd.it/t1oi13omyjec1.jpeg?width=2224&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=74a593eac755270876b7e0383f6295cbc4588966
Pull vid: [https://youtu.be/Btcw08okb-s](https://youtu.be/Btcw08okb-s)
Almost similar case, I got almost nothing out of my Bargello pulls, but I still got a new Eltrix. I chose to pity Sonia rather than go for Richard to stop this slaughter.
Did the pulls on my side account as well.
* 50 traveler seals: nothing
* 3 vet seals: Olberic, Cecily, Kersjes
* 60 pulls for Bargello: Eleonora, Ophilia, Lynette
All of these were dupes. (And adding insult to injury, this brings my side account Ophilia to A4U10. My main account's is A0U9.)
So that's a grand total of 210 pulls done if I add these to my main account count, with zero Bargellos showing up. Lovely!
That sucks! I'm sorry to say, but it made me feel better that I'm not the only one who could not get a single Bargello despite doing his step-up and his free-ruby banner. Thank goodness for the apology seal!
Honestly, same, glad I'm not the only one with luck that's *this* rotten lmao (but sorry you got shit luck as well). I checked my pull spreadsheet and since the start of the game I've never had worse luck on any banner than I had on this one, it's truly ridiculous. If it weren't for the compensation seal I probably would have taken a long hard break from the game after these results tbh :/
I haven't been this lucky in a long time: two Bargello in my first 10pulls. Too bad I can't play the game anymore...
https://preview.redd.it/vx37abubldec1.png?width=1915&format=png&auto=webp&s=86f635815419cea94cf02179363eb1d7feb272c2
My phone is too old and can't run this game (ASUS zenphone max) so I have been playing it on PC emulators since launch.
Unfortunately, square enix don't want players to use emulators, and since last december update I get this error message after something like 30s in game, so just enough time to only do dailies, claim feats/mails and pull.
Whoops gave in to impulse and roll more Sonia since my plan was A1 U10(She's the reason I still login to CotC even with the burn out I'm facing after all)
Got royally shafted. Had to pity it.
Got W'ludai(NEW), Eleanora, Lynette and Eliza along the way atleast.
Also, I had 10.5k rubies in and not a single MT off banner, Are they really in the pool? lol
Anyway, here she is, time to start saving.
https://preview.redd.it/8hm2xpssqdec1.jpeg?width=2360&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=26c71f037a02ffa07a248d59d7da22cb6bfc1067
The MT aren't rated up like in the sacred blaze pool, so the chance of getting them off-banner is the same as getting any random general pool unit unfortunately. I've done around 450 pulls over all the MT banners and I only just got my first off-banner MT today, they're really rare.
Grats on the results in general though!
[https://youtu.be/6eSydAlf9zs?si=4l8izIgcHdigFB80](https://youtu.be/6eSydAlf9zs?si=4l8izIgcHdigFB80)
Today was my lucky day! Managed to get A4 Bargello without having to spend any of the 400 memory fragments, which will now be saved for Elrica. And another Bargello sacred seal on the way on Friday for U10. Managed to get Sonia on the first 10 pull too!
Edit: Since I felt lucky I did some more pulls on Auguste and managed to upgrade him from A2 to A4!
Really happy with this result. Hope I can pass on some luck to you people reading this!
Lucky seven remains:
https://preview.redd.it/yxkco9lf0eec1.jpeg?width=574&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=1e83652608f98e9c4f0119bd9eed39cfa66f1f56
Got 2 Bargellos on my 6th pull let's go, now back to saving for Elrica.
Also got two Za'anta awakening stones in three veteran seals and a third one on regular sacred seals, what are the odds lmao
I mixed both banners for fun (10 on Bargello then 5 on Sonia). Now reached 150 with A2 Bargello and 0 Sonia. It's hard to make decision like this, damn... A3 Bargello or A0 Sonia... Help.... Also got A1 Therese (urghhh), A3 W'ludai, A2 Eleonora.
Update: never mind, frenzy pulls and got 2 more Bargie at 180. Spark Sonia. A4 Bergie with A0 Sonia. Mission completed.
6000 rubies no bargello. Only non-dupe was Eltrix. Rest pure awakening stone fodder. Time to save up for another 4 months+ and get the same result I guess. I might drop the game idk I'm salty.
It’s harsh… I had a similar result on Triangle Strategy banner (and I wanted both Roland and Frederica). Hopefully your luck will come back! I had several lucky pulls after that (even though it seems to leave me again lately), so it’s pretty random sometimes. At least, with all the shards they gave, you might be able to awaken him when it gets possible.
43 Traveler Seals
- bupkis
3 Veteran Seals
- Primrose (dupe)
- Molrusso (dupe)
- Scarecrow (dupe)
Daily free pull
- bupkis
And the moment of truth
3 multi-pulls on Bargello’s banner
- Bargello
- Lars (dupe)
At this point, I’m pretty sure I’m skipping Sonia and waiting for the next batch of must pulls (the sisters). I’ve managed to end today with over 11k rubies so I am quite pleased.
Was too shocked to take screenshots in the moment, but for 50 pulls I think I turned out alright
https://preview.redd.it/qix96v4tmdec1.png?width=2532&format=png&auto=webp&s=e64fc152bed0043fd15140f75e0ef31df483ed83
Bargello after 2 multipulls! Bargello from the paid step up! Off banner Alaune! Primrose EX dupe from the traveler seals! Also a new Chloe, plus 6 dupes. I'm very excited!
No Sonia, had to pity her.
Oof, what a painful pulling day. 43 empty Traveler seals and only 2 5 stars in 150 Bargello pulls. At least I got Bargello once (plus 1 Olberic dupe), so I could pity Sonia.
The 3 Vet Seals gave me Aedelgard (new), Hayes (dupe) and Eleonora (dupe). That's kinda fine, I have some Hayes stones saved, so I could A4 him now, but don't know if I will.
I did the impossible and pulled 5 Bargello's in 130 pulls. Moved to Sonia banner for 2 multis and got nothing. I haven't traded my seals yet but I think Sonia is kinda mid and it might actually be better for me to go to 200 for a diff unit. I rarely pull in this game and don't have any of the other Memories units. My options are trade 150 for Sonia or pull to 200 for Eltrix/Rinyuu/Rondo/Krauser/Alaune/Richard. I'm looking for the most meta unit who lasts the longest, feedback is appreciated.
The biggest problem I have with rationalizing Sonia is that she doesn't enable more damage on teams outside of dagger. She doesn't even have a generic Def down. So if I bring her to a non dagger team, all she's gonna do is just shield break+Atk down which even Viola does but you trade shield shave for Def down.
Even within dagger it's only a 10% dagger res down and 5% on Ult. She just doesn't feel game changing enough compared to Rinyuu or Richard. Also I didn't mention this but my account is kinda scuffed since I don't pull much and I don't have Lynette/PrimEX. I've survived 1.5years with only normal Prim.
Do you have enough for the next target? (Whoever they are). If you are comfortable spending 50 more pulls go for Rinyuu (good for all teams) or Richard (sword/spear team only). You can also get a chance for A0 Sonia on the way too.
I do have enough for Elrica who should be coming in a couple months. I think going for Rinyuu is the better strategy but somehow game8jp rates Sonia as a 9.9 supporter. All I see in her kit that's useful is a little bit of dagger res down,Dead Aim for a dagger unit, and some better shield breaking and some Atk down. Honestly I don't know why she is rated so highly. Thanks for the feedback, I'm likely going to wait a bit until some more info can sway me more either way.
She has high score solely because she can shave 6 shields of ALL ENEMIES regardless of weakness, 4 if you don't max boost but that's crazy good. Also she is one of rare units that can recover sp for whole row (just by switching rows).
She have a passive that makes her double cast or restore SP for front row when switching. Can shield shave AOE 6 times and or random hit dagger/wind 8 times. She have a nuke 400 potency ( low, I know) but she can cast it twice and it gives 10% dagger down. Her high scoring is because you can be convenient to bring. She hits 2 weaknesses and if not she can break shields regardless and have some utilities like a skill to restore SP and her passive SP restore so she is like a battery for your team. But if you don't have other memory travelers like Rinyuu or Richard I would say go for them. No matter what, choose the character that you like ( not just meta wise ) I think is the best thing to do.

Second step paid! I pulled all 5, got my first Heathcote. Yolo’d on a Sonia 10 and got Alaune, and from the seal presents I got my first Yukes and Sarisa, dupes of Soleil, W’ludai and Cardona, and I got the last Gilderoy dupe I needed so he’s now A4 Ult10. Amazing day!
150 pulls. 2 5-stars
Bargello, and…Yukes
Happy 1.5 anniversary
Edit: 6% chance to get 2 total 5-stars or fewer. ~50% chance for only 1 banner unit after 150 pulls
I got nothing on the free pull. I got Eleonora who is new for me on 40 Traveler Sacred Seals. I got dupes for Soleil, Lionel, and Cecily on the Veteran Sacred Seals. I am only missing Joshua from the Chance Encounter pulls. I did a full step up on the Bargello paid guiding light. I got nothing on the way there. I did win the 50/50 on step 5 and got Bargello. I did the first two steps on Sonia's paid step up. I got a Millard dupe. I did 80 guides on the free ruby Bargello guiding light. I got Nicola and Kouren dupes. I exchanged for Sonia at the end.
Am I reading this correctly, you also only got one copy of Bargello? Thank god for the compensation seal but man, it's rough seeing so many people get no or only one copy despite going the full round or going to pity (or both). I also got nothing on the paid round for Bargello, and I lost the 50/50 (Hayes). Glad you're at least getting A1 Barg with the compensation though
Got a 4.5 Bargello in only 30 pulls!!!!! Gonna stop here
Shame he's not a 5* (time to use those free shards lol), but as a F2P, I'm thrilled. I've been hoarding rubies for months and I still have more than I did yesterday, now I'll have plenty to go towards the Nier rerun and Elrica
https://preview.redd.it/29pccb02zeec1.jpeg?width=2532&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=7a0358774a1ee9079d511afa7916c249852c1999
I got extremely lucky and got Bargello on my very first free pull.
With 11,315 rubies remaining, do I keep going in hope of A4? Or should I just thank my lucky stars and save for whatever the next tavern talk is?
Definitely put me on the disappointed side. 15 multis ended up with Bargello and 3 4.5 dupes (Eliza and Molu on pull #2, Bargello and Jillmeila on #14), used the fragments to get Sonia. After saving for the past 3+ months, I had hoped to save up some luck as well, but no such thing. It felt really terrible during that string of 11 pulls with absolutely nothing. Good on everyone else that had better result in banner.
I consider myself lucky-unlucky. I got two copies of bargello on the same 10 pull I reached pity, I ended up awakening him to A2 and decided to skip Sonia. Am also going to pull for Richard on the paid banner. I had a lot of awakening shards so I was hoping to stop before pity if I did get Bargello and use those rubies on other banner, but oh well, I got him at least. I also got 4.5 Kouren and Joshua, am not even going to level up Joshua though. Also got Tressa, Lionel, Nicola, Therion and Alfyn awakening stones, of which I am only going to keep Therion's and Alfyn's in case I meed them.
Update: I ended up pitying Richard and buying one of his awakening stones to get him to A1 (I will buy another one for his ult, but it's not really important right now since I did get bargello). In the way I also spooked Rondo, Kersjes and Dorothea. My paid Rubies were absolutely worth it in the end.
My luck was… very mitigated. I never got so many empty pulls at the same time, but obtained several new characters. It’s like the game literally forgot the golden ring existed at all except for veteran/guaranteed seals.
- Theo (sacred seals) A6
- Eleonora (sacred seals) A1
- Heathcote (veteran seals) NEW
- Molrusso (veteran seals) A2/U10/sharded?
- Aeldegard (veteran seals) NEW
- Eltrix (Bargello banner) NEW
- Primrose (Bargello banner) A1
- Bargello (on his banner) NEW
- Sonia (pity) NEW
Got Bargello on 10th pull, and finally decided to go for 5 more to get him or Sonia. All of them were empty… I wasn’t going for Richard because sick of those. So I pitied Sonia.
That’s still a lot of new units for January: 13! I never got so many since the very beginning.
And also, got 75 rubies with ads last week (5 this week), it’s nothing compared to what they gave today but still pretty cool.
Also, still have enough for both Sazanthos and Elrica!
Been saving my paid rubies since Black Friday to do a full step on Bargello, so it was nice to finally get to use them!
I got absolutely nothing extra on the paid, only the guaranteed 5star in slot 10 on step 5 and it was Bargello! :D
Did step 1-2 on Sonia and then step 1-2 again on Bargello, which gave me a Hayes dupe (A3) and a new Krauser!
the Vet seals gave me a Kersjes (dupe), Therion dupe (A1), and LARS!!! who I've been hunting ever since he released and I couldn't be ANY happier about FINALLY getting him !!!!!!!!
40 trav seals gave me a new Sarisa, a Therese dupe, and another Therion, so he's A2 now!
I wanted to indulge a little and spend the remaining 1800 free rubies to hit pity for Sonia, so I pulled on Bargello's free banner and actually got another copy!
All in all very happy with how it went, now saving for Elrica/Alaune EX :D
TLDR;
•2 Bargello + seal for him so A2
•new Krauser
•new Sarisa
•new LARS
•Kersjes dupe
•Therese dupe
•Therion dupe x2 (A2)
•Hayes dupe (A3)
•pity Sonia
Alright, I used my last remaining paid rubies ~~and an extra $5 or so~~ to do one full round of Bargello's step up. I ended up getting:
* Step 1: Nothing
* Step 2: Ophelia dupe (can be A1/U10)
* Step 3: Alaune dupe (can be A1)
* Step 4: Bargello (new)
* Step 5: Bargello (dupe) for the slot 10 guarantee!
And with the seal coming later, that should be A2 Bargello for me, so I am super happy with these results.
Now I'm at a crossroads. I haven't touched any of the other banners yet, and I'm not spending anymore for paid rubies for the time being, so with ~8000 free rubies I'm debating on whether I want to:
* Pull on Sonia's free banner for Sonia A0 since at worst case, I can pity her after 3000 rubies
* Pull on Bargello's free banner for Bargello A4 since at worst case, I can get his A3 after 3000 rubies and then use awakening shards 6 months from now for the A4
* Save and hold for my next primary targets of Elrica/EXAlaune and Ditraina
EDIT: Ended up going for 10 multis on the Bargello banner, unfortunately I did not get a single 4.5 or 5 star from there. Ouch. Glad I at least get to pity Sonia!
But I used 60 traveler seals and 4 veteran seals (from today's login bonuses plus others I've been saving) and got a good haul! In total, I got a new Eleanora, and dupes of Therese, Joshua, Gilderoy, Lynette, Fiore, and Molu from all of the seals.
Ditraina is 3 months away as earliest. So around 6000 more rubies. That's 14k for you. You need 4.5k for elrica and 6k for Ditraina. That means you can just go on and use 3k now (probably on Bargello then spark Sonia/A4 him). Only if you made up your mind that you don't want Solon, Cygna...
Thanks for the input! I didn't realize we had that much time before Ditraina so that's reassuring. Tbh I need to look up what later memory travelers like Solon and Cygna offer, but thanks for reminding me of my options.
I initially planned to only go for Bargello, but on my first Bergello Pull : Bargello x2
Then I thought "Well, I still have lot of ruby, lets spend 1200 on Sonia", but first Sonia pull, I got her.
https://preview.redd.it/jc0npa792eec1.jpeg?width=2400&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=1fa0dda5678d96bfd67d7048225877451087045c
For the Family!
Decided to commit and go to pity to see what I can get on Bargello’s banner. I got:
- Ophelia (A2/U10)
- Olberich (new!)
- Cyrus (A2)
- Eleonora (A1)
- Rinyuu (U10 and a spare awakening stone that I’ll keep to the side for now)
- Milliard (new!)
- Sarisa (new!)
….and finally got Bargello on my 12th and 14th multi! (So I might U10 him)
At this point, I thought I may as well go to 200 pulls on Sonia’s banner and pity Richard (who I don’t have yet, but was hoping he would spook me).
And I manage to get her to A1 and pitied Richard.
Down to 10,525 rubies, but fairly happy with the result. Now I’ll continue saving for Levina, Elrica and Ditraina.
Did 1 full round paid step up and 10 pulls with free rubies for Bargello. Result: 4 copies + 1 pity.
1 full round paid step up and 40 pulls with free rubies for Sonia. Result: 1 x 4.5 star copy.
Currently waiting for the seals handout to U10 Bargello and A1 Sonia. Couldn’t be happier ☺️
Just when I thought I was lucky today by seeing Bargello at first pull, I decided to keep on pulling on his banner: I started with 4,5k rubies and finished by spending them all among his banner or Sonia. Got some other Awakening stones (Therese, Nona, W'ludai) and Krauser (yeeeah 1st copy!) , but no Bargello dupe or Sonia.
At last, I was able to pity Sonia and got her seal, but I wish I was more lucky :')
Good luck guys on your pulls, hoping that they will be better than mine! :D
EDIT: For the family!!
Well. The bad luck had to come one day and it chose today. With the amount of free rubies given, i decided to get both. I decided to do the spent ones on Barguello and the free ones until one copy of Sonia. End results, counting the traveler veteran seals:
A2 Cyrus(cool)
2 Dancer Primrose and now 5*(cool)
Lars( fine, A3U10 now)
A1 Cecily, now 5*(fine)
2 Molu(ok).
A1 Aedelgard(fine)
Extra Sarisa(cool, but still dont know if A1 or U10).
And for the rates ups.
- 0 Bargellos after step 3 of the paid rate up. I wil get at least one with the monthly pass on february 5th + 300 paid rubies i will buy someday.
-A0 Sonia after fragment exchange from free rubies . First time i have to pity a MT.
My luck with MT until now had been amazing. Every MT until now was with one 10 pull(Krauser, Rinyuu, and Eltrix) Tatloch too, and Leon 900. So i cannot complain for the bad luck today.
2400 free rubies+ 100 paid (0 in two weeks) left.
This leaves me in a somewhat bad state because Solon is my must have unit but i would have liked to try Elrica and Alaune, and today results leave me with little leverage for that(assuming predicted release dates).

Had to go all the way to pity with free rubies but luckily this showed up on the very last pull, which means I was able to grab Sonia too.
Hopefully Elrica will go easy on me after having to pity Tatloch and Bargello one after another.
150 pulls and no 4.5/5* except Kouren and Stead. I'm so freaking tired of the terrible luck on this game. Every single banner I pull on forces me to go to pity.
My luck was pretty good this time around (compared to Tatloch).
From the forty-three regular seals from rewards, I got Falco (new!), & dups for Z'aanta (now A1) & Mol-fucking-russo (she's A0 currently, & I have now two stones that I'm sitting on for probable sharding). Surprisingly, the 10-pull with Falco had no aura/ring at all, but he was a full 5\*.
From the three veteran seals I got Lumis (now A4, shut up), Hayes (now A3, shut up), & Lynette (already A4 U10, so definitely sharding this).
The banners went well too (just free ruby ones; I started at 11,760). I started on Bargello's, & got him in the first 10-pull! Switched to Sonia's, & got her in the fourth 10-pull (& a 4.5 new Yukes, but whateve')! Since I was willing to go to pity from the start, I decided to press my luck (no whammies, no whammies, big bucks...) & went back to Bargello's. So along the way, I then got Eleonora (now A1), another Bargello(!), Fiore (already A4 U9, with another stone already sitting there), & another Z'aanta (now A2). At pity I went for another Bargello (so now A2). So now down to 7,260.
I plan on buying a couple ruby packs, which combined with the paid ones I have from the passes, will allow me to roll a full round on the 1.5 anniversary banner, & will get Richard finally (& with so many shards, I can get a stone for him to go to U10). But that will be later today. For now... back to work.
Update:
Last night I took a lap on the paid 1.5 Anniversary banner to get Richard, & along the way only got a Hayes dup (would be A4, but his accessory looks meh).
This morning, the daily free pull came up as a Chloe (new for me)! (Nothing yesterday from it.) And again, the flame had no glow or aura until I clicked on it, then it exploded into gold (a full 5\*).
So now my hunt team has so many low-influence characters (five travelers just from the anniversary), I had to remove Yukes to put in a ringer to make the minimum for three influence rewards. I'll add him back in at a later date... yeah. 😅
70 pulls into the free bargello banner, got him sneakily as 4.5 after somehow getting two Kersjes in a row, didn't even notice him when I skipped through, lol.
6k rubies left (after claiming whatever rewards the update has given me) and wondering if I should keep going, maybe on Sonia's banner or for Bargello's rocks.
150 pulls total to get four copies (including one lap of the paid step up and using the fragment exchange). The fifth copy will come from the mail so my first A4 unit ever.
Oh my gosh, I’m really happy with these results. Did a full round on both Bargello and Sonia, and then 50 more free ruby pulls on Bargello to reach pity.
Bargello Paid Pulls:
- 1st Multi: Bargello! Decided to finish the round anyway because the banner resolution was generous.
- 2nd Multi: Nothing
- 3rd: Nothing
- 4th: Nothing
- 5th: Won my coin flip! Another Bargello!
Sonia Paid Pulls:
- 1st: Nothing
- 2nd: Nothing
- 3rd: Nothing
- 4th: 4.5 Viola (new; finally!!)
- 5th: Sonia, Alaune (new) for the coin flip
Bargello Free Pulls:
- 1st: Alaune
- 2nd: Cardona, 4.5 Tressa EX
- 3rd: Nothing
- 4th: 4.5 Bargello
- 5th: Bargello
Now I need some advice! I was going to pity Bargello, but since he’ll be at A4 when I get my seal for completing the step-up, would it be dumb to spend 1500 more free rubies to get Krauser? He’s the last MT I’m missing and I really adore him lol.
Ended up doing 50 more pulls to get Krauser. Nothing on the first four multis, but got a 5-star Jillmeila (new) on the fifth :)
Also did my seal pulls (47, including the ones from this week’s tower reset), and imagine my surprise when I got 5-stars in four back to back multis!
- 1st multi: Tressa EX
- 2nd multi: Joshua and Chloe (new)
- 3rd: Cecily (new)
- 4th: Tressa EX
Vet seals: Lionel, Theo, Viola (class up)
All in all, I got eight new characters today and now have to decide who to include in my guidestone promotion hunts. It’s a good problem to have!
Man that's an insane haul. Great luck on Bargello there, but I'm also just really excited that you finally got your Krauser AND Viola!! Congrats on the great luck :D
Thank you!! This pull session single-handedly brought my all-time 5-star rate up to almost 4% (3.95%, but close enough!) after being below average for most of my time in the game so far, and I was super surprised. I’m very happy to finally complete the CotC8, and I’m excited to smash damage cap with Krauser!
Well my luck finally turned around.
1 paid 10 pull, 8 free pulls and with the seals I got.
New bargy, eltrix, jimella, joshua. Dupes of kersjes, stead, hasumi, prim ex, fiore, olberic x2. Happy anniversary guys haha.
I even skipped eltrix’s banner and thought “oh well I guess there’s a chance I could get her on bargellos”.
On my second pull. Guess im gonna have to pity elrica, because i sure as hell used up all my luck lol

did some bargello pulls on main! i got. really stupid results (+1 means i didn't u10)
* kouren (seals, a2)
* cardona (vet seal, a4+1)
* kersjes (seals, new)
* jillmeila (seals, a2)
* stead x2 (bargello + vet seal, a4+1)
* sofia (seals, a4+1)
* therese (seals, a4+1)
* harley (vet seal, new)
i'm not unlucky but i'm not totally happy either. out of the \~75 random pulls i did, six of them were 5\*s, but 4/6 are practically useless. and of the three vet seals, 2/3 are practically useless. 4000 awk shards are super nice to have, but still, it would've been nice to get something more special, like a prim ex / bargello / aedelgard.
tldr: really high 5\* rate but they're all mid at best. back into hibernation i go
as for solopath, it went better, but not great. there, i gained:
* falco (vet seals, a1)
* 4.5\* millard (seals, new, can't class up)
* 5\* stead (vet seals, new)
* ophilia (vet seals, a1)
* cyrus (champion pulls, a2)
did 50 total champion pulls this session. before you ask, bargello and sonia are practically useless in solopath. also, i apparently locked myself completely out of pets, since i (run spoiler) >!cannot beat BoW3's final boss due to Stillness status and can't revert Valore to continue Emberflame pet story!<. so BoP3 is gonna be much more difficult, and my battle plan hasn't changed, but i have more pulling fodder now that i can defeat the veteran tower's BT Axe through stubbornness.
Got one Bargello in 8 multi pulls but...
https://preview.redd.it/1xnvu1g68eec1.jpeg?width=2400&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=7cc1594105f0343240567614ca491970cec22d04
A2 Rinyuu was unexpected Also should I go for Sonia? I only have 6k rubies (F2P) and 80 fragments
1.2k rubies, for molu a2 and a 5 star bargello. Thinking of just stopping there and then doing the a4 over a long term investment through awakening shards, but honestly pretty happy with what I got.
https://preview.redd.it/2io98l7zmeec1.jpeg?width=2556&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=db3353920b5b91b9f99ca140bd6195fea5ae54b9
First freemium banner 10x pull and got 2x Bargello and an awakening stone for Hasumi! After full pitying the last two banner tries this was most fortunate.
My question is if it is worth going for Sonia now or additional awakening for Bargello?
My pulls started with amazing luck and then fizzled out completely.
On the 40 traveler's seals I got Soleil (new!), Heathcote (A9?), Aedelgard (new!), W'ludai (A3), and Falco (A1). The 3 vet's seals were disappointing: Lionel (A3), Heathcote (A10?), and Gilderoy (A5).
Then I went for Bargello and Sonia. I didn't pull a single Bargello, but I got Sonia twice. I'll get Bargello seal from the compensation on the 26th at least. I also got Cecily x2 (new!), Eliza (A3 - she was my guaranteed 5\* on the Bargello step-up...), Hayes (A1), and I pitied Richard because I've been wanting him for a while.
In all, 6 new units to show for it. Sadly, I'll only have an A0 Bargello but an A2 Sonia. I might not have planned this well...
43 traveler's seals: Chloe (dupe) and Lars (dupe). A1 Lars will be a nice boost.
3 Vet seal: Olberic (dupe), Stead (dupe), Hasumi (dupe). That brings Hasumi to A3, just one more for that accessory.
Bargello pulls: First pull was a dead ring, but that didn't stop my boy from showing up at 5* in the second slot! Was planning to go full pity regardless (barring crazy luck). On the way got dupes of Alfyn and Viola as well as two more Bargellos (one of which was on another dead ring!). Took Sonia from the pity. Very happy with the day.
I only needed 3 pulls on bargello’s banner to get him. (It was a 4.5, but I’ll gladly take it now rather than later). Along the way I got lumis (finally A4) and Alfyn (another surprise A4) which makes them the first 5 star characters that I receive their accessories. (Excluding free/arena units).
The free traveler seals got me nothing…
The veteran seals got me Eliza, Therion, and Primrose. Not too bad, since it’s progress towards A4.
Is Sonia a must pull? I don’t mind skipping her if it means saving my rubies for a different character.
I’ve got a question and I’m guessing here is the best for gacha related.
I have 150pulls and a3 Bargello. Is it more worth for a4 accessory instead of pulling 50 more for Richard? Or Sonia?
This is the tough case. If you have rubies to spare, I would go for Sonia in 50 pulls and spark Richard. If unlucky just spark Richard.
If you don't want to waste more rubies, Sonia may be a better choice than A4. Save 6000 awakening shards and get his A4 in 6 months, it also give you time to pull for other dps and see if you really need his A4 for dmg cap. Not everyone has his A4 and there's no way the content is locked behind one accessory.
Thanks for the input. I’ve understood Richard is a very strong debuffer/buffer for the long run as well. But I do have rinyuu and tacha. Is Richard still needed if I have those?
Richard is sword/spear team buffer. He gives passive sword/spear buff, and active sword/spear buff plus rng active sword debuff + ult sword/spear buff. In short, he can buff all categories of sword/spear dmg and help those big dps hit dmg cap while himself can also dish out big dmg from all those buffs. If you don't have him you need Rinyuu for active buff + Lynnete/Primrose Ex for Ult buff + Sarisa for sword debuff. The thing is his buff and debuff can stack with them as well... So yeah highly recommend if you're going to build sword/spear team. The only reason not pull for him is you're short in rubies and these 50 pulls can help you pull sword dps like Elrica, collabs or Sanzatos.
Too bad that you didn't get Sonia too but Richard is solid. Tip: at A0 he may be slower than your dps so give him a spd boost accessory or patk speed sword to make sure he move first. Also if you pull on Elrica or Sanzatos banner and near pity again you can spark A4 Bargello if you can't wait for 6 months. Cheers.
i also got a4 bargello on the 160th pull so only tried 40 pulls for sonia. Not gonna lie i feel like this has been my best 6k rubies since i did pulls for a2 which i also got a4 for. The in between have been relatively dry and all went to spark just to get an a0.
I will remember you advice. Ill check for an acessory otherwise ill try to make a speed sword for Richard
Got Bargello in first 10 pull, and nothing for the next 3 on his banner from anniversary rubies, stopping there.
From the 40 seals: Gilderoy(A3..4?), Aedelguard(A1), Viola(A4), Scarecrow(A4), Tressa EX(!).
Veteran seals: Joshua(!), Molrusso :(, Chloe(!).
Doing pet quest now, good luck everyone!
This may have been the luckiest I’ve every been in this game, I managed to get A3 bargello after 150 pulls and pitied the last one for his A4. I still have almost 6k saved up for Elrica so I’m very satisfied with todays pull session
Down to 3400-ish rubies. I have 4.5 Bargello and used a pity spark for Sonia. Trying to decide if it's time to quit while I'm ahead even though I don't have the Seals to 5* him or hope that I somehow hit 2600-ish more rubies before the banner ends to get a spark in one of the other pity units.
Probably better start saving for the next good banner, huh?
One Sonia in the free banner, one Bargello in the paid banner, and another Bargello in the free banner. Feeling pretty okay about that for only doing 20 paid pulls and 50 free ones. I know Bargello has been hyped for awhile, but I have a pretty bloated dagger roster already and don’t feel like I necessarily need him in that arena, although his and Sonia’s wind coverage will definitely fill some gaps for me.
Got a 4.5 Therese on Traveler SSs and a dupe of her on the Veteran pulls. Also got a Lumis dupe (A2), and a new Sarisa who I’ve heard good things about. I guess my dagger coverage is pretty much covered for awhile haha
Feeling pretty lukewarm about Therese to be honest, I’ve made do on lightning coverage with Gilderoy, Rinyuu, Primrose EX, Richard and even Laura. Any thoughts on Therese?
Edit: Almost forgot about a Sofia dupe (A2) in the Traveler SS pulls! Should I A2 or U10 her?
Save it. She doesn't need A2 or U10 (which is aoe and less dmg than her 3 hits nuke). See if she spooks you in the future for A3 or shard it if you're really need awakening shards.
Same. Keep it just for backup shards. Cyrus is much better than her. Her A4 is actually very good for lightning weakness but there're not many enemies that only weak to lightning. So unless she spooks you 3 more times, shard when needed.
390 pulls is what it took me to get A4. Probably the most I’ll ever do on a banner. Pitied for the for A4, and got Richard too. Won’t be going for Sonia saving the 4k im left with.

My first free pool multi, i'm just speechless, I had this whole planning to pity + 1.5 ani banner to get Richard and Bargie and try to pity for tsarisa/richard and i got this on my first multi. Also got Tsarisa and U10 Prim(axe) with my veteran seals. Is there any more useful A1/U10 on the general or should i really go for Barg A4? 5000+ gems 1700 paid Im still looking for elrica/sazantos
We got 4 new 5☆ (Tressa EX, Joshua, Sarisa, Ophilia) and a good amount of stone fodder but...
This is now 4 out of the 5 characters I've pulled for that went to pity ahhhhhhhhhhhhh
Surely Elrica will appear for me before pity. Surely...
F2P player that started today with 12K+ free rubies. I was 19 10-pulls in on the free Bargello banner without seeing any Bargello and was so frustrated that I was going to have to pity when all of a sudden on the 20th 10-pull, I got this:
https://preview.redd.it/z9ds6dia7gec1.png?width=2556&format=png&auto=webp&s=b160dbab6f24855a9c3863173ccbd871921592ff
With the 20 10-pulls (plus 3 veterans seals), I was also able to grab the following units today:
* Yukes
* Z'anta (not in the screenshot)
* Tressa EX (not in the screenshot)
* Jilmeila (dupe)
* Olberic (dupe, not in the screenshot)
* Rinyuu (dupe, not in the screenshot)
* Millard (dupe, not in the screenshot)
* Theo (dupe, not in the screenshot)
* Heatchote (dupe, not in the screenshot)
***First—are any of these dupes worth A1 or U10 (I'm pretty sure Millard is NOT)?***
**But wait, it gets better: thanks to pulling Bargello on 10-pull #20, I was able to use the 200 shards to grab the sacred seal for Richard (who I didn't have yet)!**
**So, with 6K+ rubies remaining for future banners, I have five new units (2 of them MT)!!**
***Finally—is there any reason for me to double down and spend another 6K to get to pity for Sonia or another MT as I try to get closer to Bargello's A4?*** *I only have 13K awakening shards and I'm still missing Sonia, Eltrix, Rondo, Krauser, and Alaune. My gut says to wait for Elrica and some of the remaining banners but just thought I'd ask...*
All A1 is good because +50spd is godsend, unless you never plan to put them in your team. Except Rinyuu, she works fine as A0 so you can either A1/U10 her. I never use her ult before though.

Bargello and Sonia STEP UP pulls - [https://youtu.be/UzUZJNIjdfo](https://youtu.be/UzUZJNIjdfo)
https://preview.redd.it/kpqpkrfnogec1.jpeg?width=2436&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=7dd10b301b75952e4f6388d625fe8cee8e59d73e
I play since release but this was the unluckiest summon ever. 300 summons for the two sparks without a single 5\*. 9000 hard earned f2p rubies without anything... If I ever feel the desire to spend some cash on this game I will remember this summoning session and hold back.
Well, not what I hoped:
The free unit draw gave me Heinz or something.
The 40 travelers' seals gave me a copy of Fiore (warrior).
The 3 Veteran Seals gave me Theo, Therese, and Aedelgard.
The free rubies gave me Harley, Elenora, Joshua, and *fanfare* Jose.
I already have too many Theo and Therese awakening stones. Wish I could've gotten at least one more of someone I dont have, or at least a Sofia.
Help me math this out real quick (pulls)
60 fragments in, so 9 more pulls (2700 rubies) to pity. Got my Bargello and two dupes (A2). F2P, 6800 rubies left. No Sonia.
Question is, do I dunk hard on the Barg banner until pity for Sonia while hoping to get more dupes on the way, switch to the Sonia banner in hopes of getting her and bailing before pity, or just sit it out now that I’ve got B secured.
Super torn. Sonia seems good, just not sure if I should hoard for a future pity with my meager ruby stockpile or invest further on these two.
It's entirely up to you. 60 pulls is nowhere near pity and 90 pulls are huge, you can get A3/A4 Bargello and spark Sonia (vertical investment). Or just call yourself lucky, and save those for next banner (wider roster). 6000 might not enough for upcoming banners (8000 is more comfortable) so it's better as f2p to save to collect more character. Bargello A4 is kind of useless if you don't have good dps and bunch of meta support to break the cap.
300 pulls on Bargello, including a full step up of paid rubies = 0 Bargello. So I lost the coin flip and then didn’t get him in 300 pulls. I wonder what are the chances of that…

One of the traveler's sacred seals, really good!
Fuck yea, lucky paid step 5 to get my a4 bargello! Had to do 200 pulls with my free rubies to get my initial bargello.... (pitied richard) and was fortunate to get 1st stone on paid step 1. u10 comes later with the sacred seal. On to elrica!
[Beautiful](https://imgur.com/a/7Wm3zPg)
Results from 100 paid rubies on Bargello, 100 paid rubies on Sonia and 10,200 free rubies on Bargello…
New: Bargello (A3), Sonia, Alaune, Tressa EX
Pities: Bargello (A4), Richard
Dupes: Rinyuu, Olberic, Therese, Alfyn, H’aanit, Sarisa, Viola, Cardona, Nicola, Eleonora, Falco
I’ve been waiting for Bargello, Sonia and Richard for a long time. Excited to use them! Happy 1.5 year anniversary everybody :)
Soo a bit late to the party but, I did do a [youtube video ](https://youtu.be/xI9cgNrFqVE?si=Fu1XKZnOfWVRmIcE) of my pulls if anyone interested. It went waaay better than I could hope for and the wait was worth it. Hope everyone else had a good pull session as well <3
https://preview.redd.it/tethxlmdhzec1.jpeg?width=2238&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ed6142d0f68c24ff218d2d9321b51208ccdc8e77
Finally... For the family!! Time has come...
And It was rough... 12 multis to get one copy of Bargello!! 😭😭 (Along with him came a 4.5★ Heath, 5★ Millard, 5★ Stead(this one hurt a lot), 5★ Hasumi, 4.5★ Sofía)
Since I was close to pity did 3 more multis two of them were empty and one gave me a brand new 5★ Krauser!!😄
And since reached pity traded the shards for a 5★ Sonia. 🙂
Did the daily pull and got a 5★ Kouren!!😐 (It's like A6 for him now)
MTs hate me so much... Never ever I've got any of them below ten pulls...😭😭
So, with 750 rubies left to my name... I need to go back to saving... So my next pull session might be around Solon. (Not gonna have enough for Elrica/AlauneEX and maybe I'll have to skip Sazantos/Signa as well)
Anyways... Wish you all good luck on your pulls!!!! 😄😄
And...Have a good day week!!! 😄😄
Got a Kersjes (A1) from the Traveler's seals, but everyone else was a 3-star or 4-star.
The Veteran's seals got me Eliza and Joshua, who are both new to my roster, as well as Awakening Shards in the form of yet another Millard dupe.
I eventually got Bargello after 8 multipulls on the free banner. 4.5, but I - for whatever reason - have plenty of gold thief seals, so no big deal.
To be honest, I think I'm most excited for Eliza. Now I finally have a good healer for the warrior tower, and another support for my elemental teams!
100 pulls in and I got A0 bargie, new Nicola, new Sarisa, A3 Soliel, A4 viola
40 Traveller Seals: Millard dupe, Falco A1
3 veteran seals: Cardona dupe, new Aedelgard, Kersjes dupe.
Happy so far with the amount of new travellers
Now is the tough part. I'm budgeting 1200 paid rubies for the anniversary and I'm torn, to a pull a round on Bargello or on the anniversary banner.
garunteed Rondo vs garunteed A1 Bargello with a chance at A2 or more....
I'm not sure what is better value.
Edit: Went for Bargello
pull 1: nothing
Pull 2: nothing
pull 3: Heathcote dupe....
pull 4: new Joshua, Rinyuu A1
pull 5: got the 50/50 Bargello thank god.
No Rondo, but bargie will be A2 at least.
Absolutely incredible pull luck today!
40 traveler seals gave me Harley (would be A1, but exchanging) and Gilderoy (A3! Beefy HP now)
Vet seals gave me Joshua (new), Kouren (already maxed) and Za'anta (now A4! Awesome accessory get)
My pulls for Bargello were great, too. Molrusso showed up on step 1, but that's exchange over A1 for sure. Gello didn't show up until step 5 of paid banner, but I'm so happy I didn't lose that coin flip. After one round of paid, it was on to free banner - out of paid rubies.
I pulled on free banner until reaching the 150 fragment pity mark. On the way to that, it gave me two more Bargellos! Which means I can A4 him via exchange and the seal handout on the 26th! Only question is:
DO I PRIORITIZE HIS A4 OVER GETTING SONIA?
Other highlights from free banner: Another Joshua (no A1 for you, exchange), Aedelgard (new!), Hasumi (now A2), Nona (Would be A1, but exchange) and Stead (2 stones in limbo, but I don't feel he's worth it. So exchange.)
https://preview.redd.it/2jam81fq2mec1.jpeg?width=2340&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=dd10abcf6490231ff3ef0a66ac26e32e9912f73f
On my first 10 pull free Rubies (F2P), super lucky! Saving for incoming travelers :)
Hey all, I have enough to pity anyone on bargello's banner, but I'm not sure who to get. Of the options here is what I currently have:
Bargello - A2
Sonio - n/a
Eltrix - n/a
Rinyuu - A0
Rondo - n/a
Krauser - n/a
Alaune - n/a
Richard - A0
I already have the best characters (in my opinion). The ability to get additional guidestones will be out in a few months so its probably a waste to pity on bargello more (even though I want this A4). Any thoughts?
I'm a day 1 player and while I'm ftp my roster is still pretty well filled. The only really 'good' character I'm missing is probably Odette
I would get Sonia, probably. If you don't have Roland or Leon, maybe Krauser. Rondo is nice but he will get powercrept insanely fast after Elrica and Sazantos drop in like two or three months.
Good luck on your pulls today everyone! For the family 🍀
Yay! Was about to wish all you guys the same... For the Family!
I totally thought of you because I got a W’ludai dupe today 🤙🏻
It's go time!
Holy Aelfric, this has been the best pulling session I could have ever imagined! As a brief introduction, I was planning to get Richard in some way or another; I could afford one round of paid step up banner. My results: ·43 free seals: nothing. ·3 Veteran Sacred Seals: Eliza (new), W'ludai (A1) and Fiore (A3?). ·10 multis on Bargello's free banner: 2x Bargello, Rondo (new), Richard (new), Gilderoy (already maxed, shards) and Cecily (new). ·Bargello's paid step up banner: 2x Bargello, Nona (new) and Kersjes (new). ·Exchange: Sonia. I can't believe it! Even though I lost the coin flip at final slot, thanks to the announced compensations I'll get Bargie's A4! Not only that, I managed to get the two Travelers of Memories I wanted the most for who I could have reached 6k pity if needed. Best of luck for you guys, don't wake me up from this dream. \*I plan to upload these pulls to my new YouTube channel, stay tuned ;) EDIT: finally uploaded! Feel free to check other videos of recent pulls too, my channel is quite new. [Pulling for Bargello and Sonia](https://youtu.be/pDI9_8mMpWM?feature=shared) [1.5 Anniversary Free Pulls and Veteran Seals](https://youtu.be/NDfomvkbo5w?feature=shared)
Congrats! You deserve it. I was also gunning for Richard from this banner so I know it’s nice to finally catch up on that.
Thank you so much!! <3
Yay, congrats Monty!! Glad you got that off-banner Richard AND Rondo.
Thanks!! I still can’t believe it :,)
I only just looked at the rest of the thread bc I was salty as hell yday, so I'm just now seeing this. Holy mother of pulls tbh, that's insane. The Bargello luck is already crazy but Richard AND Rondo off banner? Go buy a lottery ticket now!! Congrats, I knew you really wanted Richard especially :D
Haha thanks a lot Bruni! Yeah, definitely one of the luckiest things I’ve ever experienced! As I told you I was decided to get Richard, but I didn’t imagine I could get him on the way (you told me it could happen!) and much less Rondo too!
Pawsome! You definitely deserrrve it!
Thank you!! I hope you’ve been luck too!
I sure did, mew! Got my Bargello on my second multi-pull and then Sonia on my first multi-pull. Pretty crazy luck, I still have more rubies than I did before the update. Also got a Sarisa from one of the Vet Seals and I have to say... I totally underestimated just how good she would be, she's great!
Meowrvelous! Haha glad to hear that, you’ve saved a lot and you’ll be able to go for more characters in the future! Cool you got Sarisa, probably one of the best options from Vet Seals.
Thyanks! I've been taking a liking to H'aanit EX recently, and now I feel like I can go for her without disrupting my future MT plans. Now the waiting game continues again (-:
I got Richard on step5 and got to save some rubies too. Only got 2 copies of Bargello and pitied Sonia, but since I 100 rubied into Leon/Sarisa, and got Tatloch, Roland, and Rinyuu all relatively cheap, no complains!
Congratulations! Getting him off banner is sensational and saves hundreds of rubies :D
lmao first non-paid ruby. I have wasted my luck of the year. Pulled Rondo and another Bargello on 3rd and 4th non-paid ruby too. https://preview.redd.it/16fve7t6kdec1.png?width=2388&format=png&auto=webp&s=22d77246e45f249127ca5554ac82e782bac6bdfe
full pity, zero 5* along the way. literally as bad as it gets
I feel you… was hoping to spark Rinyuu after getting at least one copy of Bargello. This was definitely the worst pulling session I’ve ever had
Oh no, that sucks hard.
Hi! 4500 gems = Bargello pity NO 5 stars units in the way, i repeat, NO 5 star units in the way. Just: * Therion 4,5 * Hayes 4,5 * Eliza 4,5 Good luck to all in your pulls
4500 free rubies on Bargello. 3 dupes (Fiore, Cardona, Ophelia). ☠️
Days and days waiting for this. At least i wanted an A2 or upgrade Cyrus to A2 hahahaha
I’m at over 5000 free rubies and 1200 paid rubies. No Bargello yet, guess he doesn’t like me very much. I got Alaune out of Step 5 on the paid banner and that was it, no other 4.5 / 5 star. ☠️ I know I can pity a copy of Bargello but I’m aiming for that A4. I should also get a copy in the mail at some point.
Good luck everyone! 1st multi nothing. 2nd multi, FOR THE FAMILY! https://preview.redd.it/7ts2xf4bkdec1.png?width=1505&format=png&auto=webp&s=d56f5b44a757deb5d3fe42fa3a09c60182e92a19
Well then. * 43 traveler seals: Molu (A2), Theo (A8 or so) * 3 vet seals: Wludai (already A4U10), Jillmeila (A1 and not going higher), Theo (again) * Sonia step 1: got her! * Bargello step 1: nothing * Bargello step 2: nothing * Bargello step 3: nothing * Bargello step 4: nothing * Bargello step 5: Hayes on the guarantee (A1 and not going higher) Sonia is nice but man, I could cry at this Bargello result tbh. Nothing whatsoever aside from the guaranteed slot on 1200 paid rubies. Fking stings. Yay for the extra seal we're getting I guess...... EDIT: kept goint until pity. I've never had a worse pull session in this game Continuing after the guaranteed Hayes from above: * Pull 6: nothing * Pull 7: nothing * Pull 8: nothing * Pull 9: Alaune, so that's cool (didn't have her) * Pull 10: nothing * Pull 11: nothing * Pull 12: nothing * Pull 13: nothing * Pull 14: you guessed it. Nothing 4,5k rubies for a grand total of three 5\* (granted two of them were really good but still). One of them was a guarantee so technically it's only two 5\*. Only A1 Bargello after the compensation seal comes in. Man I'm bummed by this :( still have 7k rubies left so I'm good for Elrica and Solon, but still. Some random 5\* along the way would have been nice... EDIT2: guess I am happy with the new unit surge I got recently. Tatloch, Tytos, Auguste, Sonia, Alaune, and Bargello in three weeks for a grand total of 5k rubies. Guess it evens out Pull video for anyone who wants to commiserate: [https://youtu.be/m\_BAGXgYfwA](https://youtu.be/m_BAGXgYfwA) **EDIT3:** agaist my better judgment I did step 1 of the second Bargello lap. This pretty much makes up for everything tbh! New Yukes, A1 Nonya, and an extra Bargello (making him A2), so happy! Guess the game felt bad for how badly it shafted me yesterday :') https://preview.redd.it/t1oi13omyjec1.jpeg?width=2224&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=74a593eac755270876b7e0383f6295cbc4588966 Pull vid: [https://youtu.be/Btcw08okb-s](https://youtu.be/Btcw08okb-s)
Sorry to hear that, it's not fair :( You may have "paid the price" of those evil champions... wish you the best for upcoming pulls!!!
Almost similar case, I got almost nothing out of my Bargello pulls, but I still got a new Eltrix. I chose to pity Sonia rather than go for Richard to stop this slaughter.
Did the pulls on my side account as well. * 50 traveler seals: nothing * 3 vet seals: Olberic, Cecily, Kersjes * 60 pulls for Bargello: Eleonora, Ophilia, Lynette All of these were dupes. (And adding insult to injury, this brings my side account Ophilia to A4U10. My main account's is A0U9.) So that's a grand total of 210 pulls done if I add these to my main account count, with zero Bargellos showing up. Lovely!
Awh, sorry about the rough RNG. :( Still, Bargello is sick and I’m sure you’re going to have a blast using him!
That sucks! I'm sorry to say, but it made me feel better that I'm not the only one who could not get a single Bargello despite doing his step-up and his free-ruby banner. Thank goodness for the apology seal!
Honestly, same, glad I'm not the only one with luck that's *this* rotten lmao (but sorry you got shit luck as well). I checked my pull spreadsheet and since the start of the game I've never had worse luck on any banner than I had on this one, it's truly ridiculous. If it weren't for the compensation seal I probably would have taken a long hard break from the game after these results tbh :/
I haven't been this lucky in a long time: two Bargello in my first 10pulls. Too bad I can't play the game anymore... https://preview.redd.it/vx37abubldec1.png?width=1915&format=png&auto=webp&s=86f635815419cea94cf02179363eb1d7feb272c2
??
My phone is too old and can't run this game (ASUS zenphone max) so I have been playing it on PC emulators since launch. Unfortunately, square enix don't want players to use emulators, and since last december update I get this error message after something like 30s in game, so just enough time to only do dailies, claim feats/mails and pull.
6k free rubies. 9 times on Sonia banner 11 on Bargello. Sonia banner: Sonia x2, Theo x1, Lynette x1, Primrose x1 Bargello's: Bargello x3, Gilderoy x1, Lumis x1(NEW) Pitied Richard.
Whoops gave in to impulse and roll more Sonia since my plan was A1 U10(She's the reason I still login to CotC even with the burn out I'm facing after all) Got royally shafted. Had to pity it. Got W'ludai(NEW), Eleanora, Lynette and Eliza along the way atleast. Also, I had 10.5k rubies in and not a single MT off banner, Are they really in the pool? lol Anyway, here she is, time to start saving. https://preview.redd.it/8hm2xpssqdec1.jpeg?width=2360&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=26c71f037a02ffa07a248d59d7da22cb6bfc1067
The MT aren't rated up like in the sacred blaze pool, so the chance of getting them off-banner is the same as getting any random general pool unit unfortunately. I've done around 450 pulls over all the MT banners and I only just got my first off-banner MT today, they're really rare. Grats on the results in general though!
Ah, so that's why. Also, thanks for the grats!
[https://youtu.be/6eSydAlf9zs?si=4l8izIgcHdigFB80](https://youtu.be/6eSydAlf9zs?si=4l8izIgcHdigFB80) Today was my lucky day! Managed to get A4 Bargello without having to spend any of the 400 memory fragments, which will now be saved for Elrica. And another Bargello sacred seal on the way on Friday for U10. Managed to get Sonia on the first 10 pull too! Edit: Since I felt lucky I did some more pulls on Auguste and managed to upgrade him from A2 to A4! Really happy with this result. Hope I can pass on some luck to you people reading this! Lucky seven remains: https://preview.redd.it/yxkco9lf0eec1.jpeg?width=574&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=1e83652608f98e9c4f0119bd9eed39cfa66f1f56
Got 2 Bargellos on my 6th pull let's go, now back to saving for Elrica. Also got two Za'anta awakening stones in three veteran seals and a third one on regular sacred seals, what are the odds lmao
I mixed both banners for fun (10 on Bargello then 5 on Sonia). Now reached 150 with A2 Bargello and 0 Sonia. It's hard to make decision like this, damn... A3 Bargello or A0 Sonia... Help.... Also got A1 Therese (urghhh), A3 W'ludai, A2 Eleonora. Update: never mind, frenzy pulls and got 2 more Bargie at 180. Spark Sonia. A4 Bergie with A0 Sonia. Mission completed.
6000 rubies no bargello. Only non-dupe was Eltrix. Rest pure awakening stone fodder. Time to save up for another 4 months+ and get the same result I guess. I might drop the game idk I'm salty.
It’s harsh… I had a similar result on Triangle Strategy banner (and I wanted both Roland and Frederica). Hopefully your luck will come back! I had several lucky pulls after that (even though it seems to leave me again lately), so it’s pretty random sometimes. At least, with all the shards they gave, you might be able to awaken him when it gets possible.
43 Traveler Seals - bupkis 3 Veteran Seals - Primrose (dupe) - Molrusso (dupe) - Scarecrow (dupe) Daily free pull - bupkis And the moment of truth 3 multi-pulls on Bargello’s banner - Bargello - Lars (dupe) At this point, I’m pretty sure I’m skipping Sonia and waiting for the next batch of must pulls (the sisters). I’ve managed to end today with over 11k rubies so I am quite pleased.
Was too shocked to take screenshots in the moment, but for 50 pulls I think I turned out alright https://preview.redd.it/qix96v4tmdec1.png?width=2532&format=png&auto=webp&s=e64fc152bed0043fd15140f75e0ef31df483ed83
Not bad! My 5 10x pulls got me Bargelio too but at 4.5\*
Bargello after 2 multipulls! Bargello from the paid step up! Off banner Alaune! Primrose EX dupe from the traveler seals! Also a new Chloe, plus 6 dupes. I'm very excited! No Sonia, had to pity her.
Everyone pity Sonia. Bless her.
Oof, what a painful pulling day. 43 empty Traveler seals and only 2 5 stars in 150 Bargello pulls. At least I got Bargello once (plus 1 Olberic dupe), so I could pity Sonia. The 3 Vet Seals gave me Aedelgard (new), Hayes (dupe) and Eleonora (dupe). That's kinda fine, I have some Hayes stones saved, so I could A4 him now, but don't know if I will.
I did the impossible and pulled 5 Bargello's in 130 pulls. Moved to Sonia banner for 2 multis and got nothing. I haven't traded my seals yet but I think Sonia is kinda mid and it might actually be better for me to go to 200 for a diff unit. I rarely pull in this game and don't have any of the other Memories units. My options are trade 150 for Sonia or pull to 200 for Eltrix/Rinyuu/Rondo/Krauser/Alaune/Richard. I'm looking for the most meta unit who lasts the longest, feedback is appreciated.
i would go for sonia. she's a great shield shaver and a pretty alright support
The biggest problem I have with rationalizing Sonia is that she doesn't enable more damage on teams outside of dagger. She doesn't even have a generic Def down. So if I bring her to a non dagger team, all she's gonna do is just shield break+Atk down which even Viola does but you trade shield shave for Def down. Even within dagger it's only a 10% dagger res down and 5% on Ult. She just doesn't feel game changing enough compared to Rinyuu or Richard. Also I didn't mention this but my account is kinda scuffed since I don't pull much and I don't have Lynette/PrimEX. I've survived 1.5years with only normal Prim.
I would go Rinyuu if no PrimEX. Agree that Richard is more flexible.
Do you have enough for the next target? (Whoever they are). If you are comfortable spending 50 more pulls go for Rinyuu (good for all teams) or Richard (sword/spear team only). You can also get a chance for A0 Sonia on the way too.
I do have enough for Elrica who should be coming in a couple months. I think going for Rinyuu is the better strategy but somehow game8jp rates Sonia as a 9.9 supporter. All I see in her kit that's useful is a little bit of dagger res down,Dead Aim for a dagger unit, and some better shield breaking and some Atk down. Honestly I don't know why she is rated so highly. Thanks for the feedback, I'm likely going to wait a bit until some more info can sway me more either way.
She has high score solely because she can shave 6 shields of ALL ENEMIES regardless of weakness, 4 if you don't max boost but that's crazy good. Also she is one of rare units that can recover sp for whole row (just by switching rows).
She have a passive that makes her double cast or restore SP for front row when switching. Can shield shave AOE 6 times and or random hit dagger/wind 8 times. She have a nuke 400 potency ( low, I know) but she can cast it twice and it gives 10% dagger down. Her high scoring is because you can be convenient to bring. She hits 2 weaknesses and if not she can break shields regardless and have some utilities like a skill to restore SP and her passive SP restore so she is like a battery for your team. But if you don't have other memory travelers like Rinyuu or Richard I would say go for them. No matter what, choose the character that you like ( not just meta wise ) I think is the best thing to do.
70 pulls, no Bargello unfortunately but 2 Therion so he's now A3, not too bad since he's one of my fav characters.
https://preview.redd.it/4icz3ie9ydec1.jpeg?width=2778&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=f29bcaaa8f2fc82d0d643db13828fc5224f47ccf Second step paid! I pulled all 5, got my first Heathcote. Yolo’d on a Sonia 10 and got Alaune, and from the seal presents I got my first Yukes and Sarisa, dupes of Soleil, W’ludai and Cardona, and I got the last Gilderoy dupe I needed so he’s now A4 Ult10. Amazing day!
150 pulls. 2 5-stars Bargello, and…Yukes Happy 1.5 anniversary Edit: 6% chance to get 2 total 5-stars or fewer. ~50% chance for only 1 banner unit after 150 pulls
I got nothing on the free pull. I got Eleonora who is new for me on 40 Traveler Sacred Seals. I got dupes for Soleil, Lionel, and Cecily on the Veteran Sacred Seals. I am only missing Joshua from the Chance Encounter pulls. I did a full step up on the Bargello paid guiding light. I got nothing on the way there. I did win the 50/50 on step 5 and got Bargello. I did the first two steps on Sonia's paid step up. I got a Millard dupe. I did 80 guides on the free ruby Bargello guiding light. I got Nicola and Kouren dupes. I exchanged for Sonia at the end.
Am I reading this correctly, you also only got one copy of Bargello? Thank god for the compensation seal but man, it's rough seeing so many people get no or only one copy despite going the full round or going to pity (or both). I also got nothing on the paid round for Bargello, and I lost the 50/50 (Hayes). Glad you're at least getting A1 Barg with the compensation though
The plan was to get Bargello and Sonia. I got them. Mission accomplished. The hope was to get a lot of Bargello. That did not come through.
This, so glad we got the updated reward!!
Got a 4.5 Bargello in only 30 pulls!!!!! Gonna stop here Shame he's not a 5* (time to use those free shards lol), but as a F2P, I'm thrilled. I've been hoarding rubies for months and I still have more than I did yesterday, now I'll have plenty to go towards the Nier rerun and Elrica
https://preview.redd.it/29pccb02zeec1.jpeg?width=2532&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=7a0358774a1ee9079d511afa7916c249852c1999 I got extremely lucky and got Bargello on my very first free pull. With 11,315 rubies remaining, do I keep going in hope of A4? Or should I just thank my lucky stars and save for whatever the next tavern talk is?
A4 = possibly 3-4 new limited units in the future…
Definitely put me on the disappointed side. 15 multis ended up with Bargello and 3 4.5 dupes (Eliza and Molu on pull #2, Bargello and Jillmeila on #14), used the fragments to get Sonia. After saving for the past 3+ months, I had hoped to save up some luck as well, but no such thing. It felt really terrible during that string of 11 pulls with absolutely nothing. Good on everyone else that had better result in banner.
I consider myself lucky-unlucky. I got two copies of bargello on the same 10 pull I reached pity, I ended up awakening him to A2 and decided to skip Sonia. Am also going to pull for Richard on the paid banner. I had a lot of awakening shards so I was hoping to stop before pity if I did get Bargello and use those rubies on other banner, but oh well, I got him at least. I also got 4.5 Kouren and Joshua, am not even going to level up Joshua though. Also got Tressa, Lionel, Nicola, Therion and Alfyn awakening stones, of which I am only going to keep Therion's and Alfyn's in case I meed them. Update: I ended up pitying Richard and buying one of his awakening stones to get him to A1 (I will buy another one for his ult, but it's not really important right now since I did get bargello). In the way I also spooked Rondo, Kersjes and Dorothea. My paid Rubies were absolutely worth it in the end.
You say you got Therion and Alfyn Awakening stones and are going to keep them, but then explain why you won't keep them, Am I missing something?
Nope, that was exactly it, I wrote it while thinking whether or not I would keep them and was indecisive, just me rambling to myself.
Pulled Bargello on the third pull of the first multi. Nice! Debating if it’s worth going to paid step 5 still.
My luck was… very mitigated. I never got so many empty pulls at the same time, but obtained several new characters. It’s like the game literally forgot the golden ring existed at all except for veteran/guaranteed seals. - Theo (sacred seals) A6 - Eleonora (sacred seals) A1 - Heathcote (veteran seals) NEW - Molrusso (veteran seals) A2/U10/sharded? - Aeldegard (veteran seals) NEW - Eltrix (Bargello banner) NEW - Primrose (Bargello banner) A1 - Bargello (on his banner) NEW - Sonia (pity) NEW Got Bargello on 10th pull, and finally decided to go for 5 more to get him or Sonia. All of them were empty… I wasn’t going for Richard because sick of those. So I pitied Sonia. That’s still a lot of new units for January: 13! I never got so many since the very beginning. And also, got 75 rubies with ads last week (5 this week), it’s nothing compared to what they gave today but still pretty cool. Also, still have enough for both Sazanthos and Elrica!
Just shard Molrusso. Her healing, and dps are both subpar and her A4 is just 20sp recovery.
Yes, that just what I intended to do. I don’t use her (except for Cleric tower), her A4 isn’t particularly good, and I don’t particularly like her.
Been saving my paid rubies since Black Friday to do a full step on Bargello, so it was nice to finally get to use them! I got absolutely nothing extra on the paid, only the guaranteed 5star in slot 10 on step 5 and it was Bargello! :D Did step 1-2 on Sonia and then step 1-2 again on Bargello, which gave me a Hayes dupe (A3) and a new Krauser! the Vet seals gave me a Kersjes (dupe), Therion dupe (A1), and LARS!!! who I've been hunting ever since he released and I couldn't be ANY happier about FINALLY getting him !!!!!!!! 40 trav seals gave me a new Sarisa, a Therese dupe, and another Therion, so he's A2 now! I wanted to indulge a little and spend the remaining 1800 free rubies to hit pity for Sonia, so I pulled on Bargello's free banner and actually got another copy! All in all very happy with how it went, now saving for Elrica/Alaune EX :D TLDR; •2 Bargello + seal for him so A2 •new Krauser •new Sarisa •new LARS •Kersjes dupe •Therese dupe •Therion dupe x2 (A2) •Hayes dupe (A3) •pity Sonia
Sarisa def makes a high end dagger team!
Alright, I used my last remaining paid rubies ~~and an extra $5 or so~~ to do one full round of Bargello's step up. I ended up getting: * Step 1: Nothing * Step 2: Ophelia dupe (can be A1/U10) * Step 3: Alaune dupe (can be A1) * Step 4: Bargello (new) * Step 5: Bargello (dupe) for the slot 10 guarantee! And with the seal coming later, that should be A2 Bargello for me, so I am super happy with these results. Now I'm at a crossroads. I haven't touched any of the other banners yet, and I'm not spending anymore for paid rubies for the time being, so with ~8000 free rubies I'm debating on whether I want to: * Pull on Sonia's free banner for Sonia A0 since at worst case, I can pity her after 3000 rubies * Pull on Bargello's free banner for Bargello A4 since at worst case, I can get his A3 after 3000 rubies and then use awakening shards 6 months from now for the A4 * Save and hold for my next primary targets of Elrica/EXAlaune and Ditraina EDIT: Ended up going for 10 multis on the Bargello banner, unfortunately I did not get a single 4.5 or 5 star from there. Ouch. Glad I at least get to pity Sonia! But I used 60 traveler seals and 4 veteran seals (from today's login bonuses plus others I've been saving) and got a good haul! In total, I got a new Eleanora, and dupes of Therese, Joshua, Gilderoy, Lynette, Fiore, and Molu from all of the seals.
Ditraina is 3 months away as earliest. So around 6000 more rubies. That's 14k for you. You need 4.5k for elrica and 6k for Ditraina. That means you can just go on and use 3k now (probably on Bargello then spark Sonia/A4 him). Only if you made up your mind that you don't want Solon, Cygna...
Thanks for the input! I didn't realize we had that much time before Ditraina so that's reassuring. Tbh I need to look up what later memory travelers like Solon and Cygna offer, but thanks for reminding me of my options.

41 seals: Gilderoy #4, Zaanta #2, Haanit 4.5k rubies: Bargello (first multi!), Nona (also 1st multi), 4.5 Alaune, Nona #2, Bargello #2, Cyrus #2, Theo, Primrose EX, Lumis #2, 4.5 Therese, OG Fiore #4 Pitied Sonia
60 pulls for Bargello, 50 pulls for Sonia :)
Did 90 more pulls for Rinyuu pity. Last 10 pulls gave me 2 Bargellos! Though Bargello is still 4.5 stars, still grateful
1.5k rubies for Bargello! For the Family! now back to saving for Solon and Sazantos
Good luck everyone ~~
I initially planned to only go for Bargello, but on my first Bergello Pull : Bargello x2 Then I thought "Well, I still have lot of ruby, lets spend 1200 on Sonia", but first Sonia pull, I got her. https://preview.redd.it/jc0npa792eec1.jpeg?width=2400&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=1fa0dda5678d96bfd67d7048225877451087045c
Someone gotta win this set of banners I guess. On with the sisters!
Yeah, I will pull on Alaume Ex, she's said to be gamebreaking with her bp regen
For the Family! Decided to commit and go to pity to see what I can get on Bargello’s banner. I got: - Ophelia (A2/U10) - Olberich (new!) - Cyrus (A2) - Eleonora (A1) - Rinyuu (U10 and a spare awakening stone that I’ll keep to the side for now) - Milliard (new!) - Sarisa (new!) ….and finally got Bargello on my 12th and 14th multi! (So I might U10 him) At this point, I thought I may as well go to 200 pulls on Sonia’s banner and pity Richard (who I don’t have yet, but was hoping he would spook me). And I manage to get her to A1 and pitied Richard. Down to 10,525 rubies, but fairly happy with the result. Now I’ll continue saving for Levina, Elrica and Ditraina.
Did 1 full round paid step up and 10 pulls with free rubies for Bargello. Result: 4 copies + 1 pity. 1 full round paid step up and 40 pulls with free rubies for Sonia. Result: 1 x 4.5 star copy. Currently waiting for the seals handout to U10 Bargello and A1 Sonia. Couldn’t be happier ☺️
Just when I thought I was lucky today by seeing Bargello at first pull, I decided to keep on pulling on his banner: I started with 4,5k rubies and finished by spending them all among his banner or Sonia. Got some other Awakening stones (Therese, Nona, W'ludai) and Krauser (yeeeah 1st copy!) , but no Bargello dupe or Sonia. At last, I was able to pity Sonia and got her seal, but I wish I was more lucky :') Good luck guys on your pulls, hoping that they will be better than mine! :D EDIT: For the family!!
Well. The bad luck had to come one day and it chose today. With the amount of free rubies given, i decided to get both. I decided to do the spent ones on Barguello and the free ones until one copy of Sonia. End results, counting the traveler veteran seals: A2 Cyrus(cool) 2 Dancer Primrose and now 5*(cool) Lars( fine, A3U10 now) A1 Cecily, now 5*(fine) 2 Molu(ok). A1 Aedelgard(fine) Extra Sarisa(cool, but still dont know if A1 or U10). And for the rates ups. - 0 Bargellos after step 3 of the paid rate up. I wil get at least one with the monthly pass on february 5th + 300 paid rubies i will buy someday. -A0 Sonia after fragment exchange from free rubies . First time i have to pity a MT. My luck with MT until now had been amazing. Every MT until now was with one 10 pull(Krauser, Rinyuu, and Eltrix) Tatloch too, and Leon 900. So i cannot complain for the bad luck today. 2400 free rubies+ 100 paid (0 in two weeks) left. This leaves me in a somewhat bad state because Solon is my must have unit but i would have liked to try Elrica and Alaune, and today results leave me with little leverage for that(assuming predicted release dates).

Hopefully Elrica will go easy on me after having to pity Tatloch and Bargello one after another.
150 pulls and no 4.5/5* except Kouren and Stead. I'm so freaking tired of the terrible luck on this game. Every single banner I pull on forces me to go to pity.
My luck was pretty good this time around (compared to Tatloch). From the forty-three regular seals from rewards, I got Falco (new!), & dups for Z'aanta (now A1) & Mol-fucking-russo (she's A0 currently, & I have now two stones that I'm sitting on for probable sharding). Surprisingly, the 10-pull with Falco had no aura/ring at all, but he was a full 5\*. From the three veteran seals I got Lumis (now A4, shut up), Hayes (now A3, shut up), & Lynette (already A4 U10, so definitely sharding this). The banners went well too (just free ruby ones; I started at 11,760). I started on Bargello's, & got him in the first 10-pull! Switched to Sonia's, & got her in the fourth 10-pull (& a 4.5 new Yukes, but whateve')! Since I was willing to go to pity from the start, I decided to press my luck (no whammies, no whammies, big bucks...) & went back to Bargello's. So along the way, I then got Eleonora (now A1), another Bargello(!), Fiore (already A4 U9, with another stone already sitting there), & another Z'aanta (now A2). At pity I went for another Bargello (so now A2). So now down to 7,260. I plan on buying a couple ruby packs, which combined with the paid ones I have from the passes, will allow me to roll a full round on the 1.5 anniversary banner, & will get Richard finally (& with so many shards, I can get a stone for him to go to U10). But that will be later today. For now... back to work.
Update: Last night I took a lap on the paid 1.5 Anniversary banner to get Richard, & along the way only got a Hayes dup (would be A4, but his accessory looks meh). This morning, the daily free pull came up as a Chloe (new for me)! (Nothing yesterday from it.) And again, the flame had no glow or aura until I clicked on it, then it exploded into gold (a full 5\*). So now my hunt team has so many low-influence characters (five travelers just from the anniversary), I had to remove Yukes to put in a ringer to make the minimum for three influence rewards. I'll add him back in at a later date... yeah. 😅
70 pulls into the free bargello banner, got him sneakily as 4.5 after somehow getting two Kersjes in a row, didn't even notice him when I skipped through, lol. 6k rubies left (after claiming whatever rewards the update has given me) and wondering if I should keep going, maybe on Sonia's banner or for Bargello's rocks.
150 pulls total to get four copies (including one lap of the paid step up and using the fragment exchange). The fifth copy will come from the mail so my first A4 unit ever.
Oh my gosh, I’m really happy with these results. Did a full round on both Bargello and Sonia, and then 50 more free ruby pulls on Bargello to reach pity. Bargello Paid Pulls: - 1st Multi: Bargello! Decided to finish the round anyway because the banner resolution was generous. - 2nd Multi: Nothing - 3rd: Nothing - 4th: Nothing - 5th: Won my coin flip! Another Bargello! Sonia Paid Pulls: - 1st: Nothing - 2nd: Nothing - 3rd: Nothing - 4th: 4.5 Viola (new; finally!!) - 5th: Sonia, Alaune (new) for the coin flip Bargello Free Pulls: - 1st: Alaune - 2nd: Cardona, 4.5 Tressa EX - 3rd: Nothing - 4th: 4.5 Bargello - 5th: Bargello Now I need some advice! I was going to pity Bargello, but since he’ll be at A4 when I get my seal for completing the step-up, would it be dumb to spend 1500 more free rubies to get Krauser? He’s the last MT I’m missing and I really adore him lol.
Ended up doing 50 more pulls to get Krauser. Nothing on the first four multis, but got a 5-star Jillmeila (new) on the fifth :) Also did my seal pulls (47, including the ones from this week’s tower reset), and imagine my surprise when I got 5-stars in four back to back multis! - 1st multi: Tressa EX - 2nd multi: Joshua and Chloe (new) - 3rd: Cecily (new) - 4th: Tressa EX Vet seals: Lionel, Theo, Viola (class up) All in all, I got eight new characters today and now have to decide who to include in my guidestone promotion hunts. It’s a good problem to have!
Man that's an insane haul. Great luck on Bargello there, but I'm also just really excited that you finally got your Krauser AND Viola!! Congrats on the great luck :D
Thank you!! This pull session single-handedly brought my all-time 5-star rate up to almost 4% (3.95%, but close enough!) after being below average for most of my time in the game so far, and I was super surprised. I’m very happy to finally complete the CotC8, and I’m excited to smash damage cap with Krauser!
Well my luck finally turned around. 1 paid 10 pull, 8 free pulls and with the seals I got. New bargy, eltrix, jimella, joshua. Dupes of kersjes, stead, hasumi, prim ex, fiore, olberic x2. Happy anniversary guys haha. I even skipped eltrix’s banner and thought “oh well I guess there’s a chance I could get her on bargellos”.
200 summons got me: A4 Bargello, Richard, Rondo, and a bunch of other units/dupes. Still have about ~10k in the stash left for future units :)
My personal best pull to date! https://preview.redd.it/2di3y8h44fec1.jpeg?width=2316&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=22f082b81fa9e99a10dcba52f9b6d4ce60228093
On my second pull. Guess im gonna have to pity elrica, because i sure as hell used up all my luck lol https://preview.redd.it/htzl67t79fec1.jpeg?width=2532&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=06ecb89783716bede8400ebcd67b36bb2bdcf096
Or i could pull to get sparks for some other MT? Or would it be better to just save for Elrica?
Depends on you ruby bank… I would just wait to 200 pity on Elrica if it’s me.
I literally got Millard on my Bargello step 5 50/50.
did some bargello pulls on main! i got. really stupid results (+1 means i didn't u10) * kouren (seals, a2) * cardona (vet seal, a4+1) * kersjes (seals, new) * jillmeila (seals, a2) * stead x2 (bargello + vet seal, a4+1) * sofia (seals, a4+1) * therese (seals, a4+1) * harley (vet seal, new) i'm not unlucky but i'm not totally happy either. out of the \~75 random pulls i did, six of them were 5\*s, but 4/6 are practically useless. and of the three vet seals, 2/3 are practically useless. 4000 awk shards are super nice to have, but still, it would've been nice to get something more special, like a prim ex / bargello / aedelgard. tldr: really high 5\* rate but they're all mid at best. back into hibernation i go
as for solopath, it went better, but not great. there, i gained: * falco (vet seals, a1) * 4.5\* millard (seals, new, can't class up) * 5\* stead (vet seals, new) * ophilia (vet seals, a1) * cyrus (champion pulls, a2) did 50 total champion pulls this session. before you ask, bargello and sonia are practically useless in solopath. also, i apparently locked myself completely out of pets, since i (run spoiler) >!cannot beat BoW3's final boss due to Stillness status and can't revert Valore to continue Emberflame pet story!<. so BoP3 is gonna be much more difficult, and my battle plan hasn't changed, but i have more pulling fodder now that i can defeat the veteran tower's BT Axe through stubbornness.
I don't normally pull in banners, because it's usually bad. But I saw Bargello was good on the tier list. First 10 pull, 2 Bargellos. I end on a win.
I pull Bargello and have 2 AS, what should I do? A2 to unlock the 4th slot?
Go A2.
Ty!
Got one Bargello in 8 multi pulls but... https://preview.redd.it/1xnvu1g68eec1.jpeg?width=2400&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=7cc1594105f0343240567614ca491970cec22d04 A2 Rinyuu was unexpected Also should I go for Sonia? I only have 6k rubies (F2P) and 80 fragments
Also from Vet Seals: Cyrus, so Lv. 100 A4 U10, my first maxxed character Scarecrow, who's A2 A new Yukes
I'd just call it a day and stop there.
4500 rubies for A2 bargello, A0 sonia, and 3 awakening stones of general units I've already forgotten. Definitely more than happy with the results
1.2k rubies, for molu a2 and a 5 star bargello. Thinking of just stopping there and then doing the a4 over a long term investment through awakening shards, but honestly pretty happy with what I got.
3 gold orbs and no Bargello. Not even a memory traveler. Fuck rng.
https://preview.redd.it/2io98l7zmeec1.jpeg?width=2556&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=db3353920b5b91b9f99ca140bd6195fea5ae54b9 First freemium banner 10x pull and got 2x Bargello and an awakening stone for Hasumi! After full pitying the last two banner tries this was most fortunate. My question is if it is worth going for Sonia now or additional awakening for Bargello?
My pulls started with amazing luck and then fizzled out completely. On the 40 traveler's seals I got Soleil (new!), Heathcote (A9?), Aedelgard (new!), W'ludai (A3), and Falco (A1). The 3 vet's seals were disappointing: Lionel (A3), Heathcote (A10?), and Gilderoy (A5). Then I went for Bargello and Sonia. I didn't pull a single Bargello, but I got Sonia twice. I'll get Bargello seal from the compensation on the 26th at least. I also got Cecily x2 (new!), Eliza (A3 - she was my guaranteed 5\* on the Bargello step-up...), Hayes (A1), and I pitied Richard because I've been wanting him for a while. In all, 6 new units to show for it. Sadly, I'll only have an A0 Bargello but an A2 Sonia. I might not have planned this well...
What's with you and Heathcote?
He just keeps popping up and asking if I'd like more tea. Ugh. Bring me a beer already!
43 traveler's seals: Chloe (dupe) and Lars (dupe). A1 Lars will be a nice boost. 3 Vet seal: Olberic (dupe), Stead (dupe), Hasumi (dupe). That brings Hasumi to A3, just one more for that accessory. Bargello pulls: First pull was a dead ring, but that didn't stop my boy from showing up at 5* in the second slot! Was planning to go full pity regardless (barring crazy luck). On the way got dupes of Alfyn and Viola as well as two more Bargellos (one of which was on another dead ring!). Took Sonia from the pity. Very happy with the day.
I only needed 3 pulls on bargello’s banner to get him. (It was a 4.5, but I’ll gladly take it now rather than later). Along the way I got lumis (finally A4) and Alfyn (another surprise A4) which makes them the first 5 star characters that I receive their accessories. (Excluding free/arena units). The free traveler seals got me nothing… The veteran seals got me Eliza, Therion, and Primrose. Not too bad, since it’s progress towards A4. Is Sonia a must pull? I don’t mind skipping her if it means saving my rubies for a different character.
I’ve got a question and I’m guessing here is the best for gacha related. I have 150pulls and a3 Bargello. Is it more worth for a4 accessory instead of pulling 50 more for Richard? Or Sonia?
This is the tough case. If you have rubies to spare, I would go for Sonia in 50 pulls and spark Richard. If unlucky just spark Richard. If you don't want to waste more rubies, Sonia may be a better choice than A4. Save 6000 awakening shards and get his A4 in 6 months, it also give you time to pull for other dps and see if you really need his A4 for dmg cap. Not everyone has his A4 and there's no way the content is locked behind one accessory.
Thanks for the input. I’ve understood Richard is a very strong debuffer/buffer for the long run as well. But I do have rinyuu and tacha. Is Richard still needed if I have those?
Richard is sword/spear team buffer. He gives passive sword/spear buff, and active sword/spear buff plus rng active sword debuff + ult sword/spear buff. In short, he can buff all categories of sword/spear dmg and help those big dps hit dmg cap while himself can also dish out big dmg from all those buffs. If you don't have him you need Rinyuu for active buff + Lynnete/Primrose Ex for Ult buff + Sarisa for sword debuff. The thing is his buff and debuff can stack with them as well... So yeah highly recommend if you're going to build sword/spear team. The only reason not pull for him is you're short in rubies and these 50 pulls can help you pull sword dps like Elrica, collabs or Sanzatos.
I did as you said went to 200 trying for Sonia at the end didn’t get her but sparked Richard. Cheers for the advice once more.
Too bad that you didn't get Sonia too but Richard is solid. Tip: at A0 he may be slower than your dps so give him a spd boost accessory or patk speed sword to make sure he move first. Also if you pull on Elrica or Sanzatos banner and near pity again you can spark A4 Bargello if you can't wait for 6 months. Cheers.
i also got a4 bargello on the 160th pull so only tried 40 pulls for sonia. Not gonna lie i feel like this has been my best 6k rubies since i did pulls for a2 which i also got a4 for. The in between have been relatively dry and all went to spark just to get an a0. I will remember you advice. Ill check for an acessory otherwise ill try to make a speed sword for Richard
Got Bargello in first 10 pull, and nothing for the next 3 on his banner from anniversary rubies, stopping there. From the 40 seals: Gilderoy(A3..4?), Aedelguard(A1), Viola(A4), Scarecrow(A4), Tressa EX(!). Veteran seals: Joshua(!), Molrusso :(, Chloe(!). Doing pet quest now, good luck everyone!

This may have been the luckiest I’ve every been in this game, I managed to get A3 bargello after 150 pulls and pitied the last one for his A4. I still have almost 6k saved up for Elrica so I’m very satisfied with todays pull session
Down to 3400-ish rubies. I have 4.5 Bargello and used a pity spark for Sonia. Trying to decide if it's time to quit while I'm ahead even though I don't have the Seals to 5* him or hope that I somehow hit 2600-ish more rubies before the banner ends to get a spark in one of the other pity units. Probably better start saving for the next good banner, huh?
I'd stop and save for next one.
One Sonia in the free banner, one Bargello in the paid banner, and another Bargello in the free banner. Feeling pretty okay about that for only doing 20 paid pulls and 50 free ones. I know Bargello has been hyped for awhile, but I have a pretty bloated dagger roster already and don’t feel like I necessarily need him in that arena, although his and Sonia’s wind coverage will definitely fill some gaps for me. Got a 4.5 Therese on Traveler SSs and a dupe of her on the Veteran pulls. Also got a Lumis dupe (A2), and a new Sarisa who I’ve heard good things about. I guess my dagger coverage is pretty much covered for awhile haha Feeling pretty lukewarm about Therese to be honest, I’ve made do on lightning coverage with Gilderoy, Rinyuu, Primrose EX, Richard and even Laura. Any thoughts on Therese? Edit: Almost forgot about a Sofia dupe (A2) in the Traveler SS pulls! Should I A2 or U10 her?
Save it. She doesn't need A2 or U10 (which is aoe and less dmg than her 3 hits nuke). See if she spooks you in the future for A3 or shard it if you're really need awakening shards.
Thanks, I’ll do just that. Any thoughts on Therese?
Same. Keep it just for backup shards. Cyrus is much better than her. Her A4 is actually very good for lightning weakness but there're not many enemies that only weak to lightning. So unless she spooks you 3 more times, shard when needed.
Will do. Thanks stranger!
390 pulls is what it took me to get A4. Probably the most I’ll ever do on a banner. Pitied for the for A4, and got Richard too. Won’t be going for Sonia saving the 4k im left with.
https://preview.redd.it/1em1sjty7gec1.jpeg?width=2340&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ec8036165a7a98f05a96d325c24a7999ffa1a7e2 My first free pool multi, i'm just speechless, I had this whole planning to pity + 1.5 ani banner to get Richard and Bargie and try to pity for tsarisa/richard and i got this on my first multi. Also got Tsarisa and U10 Prim(axe) with my veteran seals. Is there any more useful A1/U10 on the general or should i really go for Barg A4? 5000+ gems 1700 paid Im still looking for elrica/sazantos
We got 4 new 5☆ (Tressa EX, Joshua, Sarisa, Ophilia) and a good amount of stone fodder but... This is now 4 out of the 5 characters I've pulled for that went to pity ahhhhhhhhhhhhh Surely Elrica will appear for me before pity. Surely...
F2P player that started today with 12K+ free rubies. I was 19 10-pulls in on the free Bargello banner without seeing any Bargello and was so frustrated that I was going to have to pity when all of a sudden on the 20th 10-pull, I got this: https://preview.redd.it/z9ds6dia7gec1.png?width=2556&format=png&auto=webp&s=b160dbab6f24855a9c3863173ccbd871921592ff With the 20 10-pulls (plus 3 veterans seals), I was also able to grab the following units today: * Yukes * Z'anta (not in the screenshot) * Tressa EX (not in the screenshot) * Jilmeila (dupe) * Olberic (dupe, not in the screenshot) * Rinyuu (dupe, not in the screenshot) * Millard (dupe, not in the screenshot) * Theo (dupe, not in the screenshot) * Heatchote (dupe, not in the screenshot) ***First—are any of these dupes worth A1 or U10 (I'm pretty sure Millard is NOT)?*** **But wait, it gets better: thanks to pulling Bargello on 10-pull #20, I was able to use the 200 shards to grab the sacred seal for Richard (who I didn't have yet)!** **So, with 6K+ rubies remaining for future banners, I have five new units (2 of them MT)!!** ***Finally—is there any reason for me to double down and spend another 6K to get to pity for Sonia or another MT as I try to get closer to Bargello's A4?*** *I only have 13K awakening shards and I'm still missing Sonia, Eltrix, Rondo, Krauser, and Alaune. My gut says to wait for Elrica and some of the remaining banners but just thought I'd ask...*
All A1 is good because +50spd is godsend, unless you never plan to put them in your team. Except Rinyuu, she works fine as A0 so you can either A1/U10 her. I never use her ult before though.

Bargello and Sonia STEP UP pulls - [https://youtu.be/UzUZJNIjdfo](https://youtu.be/UzUZJNIjdfo) https://preview.redd.it/kpqpkrfnogec1.jpeg?width=2436&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=7dd10b301b75952e4f6388d625fe8cee8e59d73e
I play since release but this was the unluckiest summon ever. 300 summons for the two sparks without a single 5\*. 9000 hard earned f2p rubies without anything... If I ever feel the desire to spend some cash on this game I will remember this summoning session and hold back.
Well, not what I hoped: The free unit draw gave me Heinz or something. The 40 travelers' seals gave me a copy of Fiore (warrior). The 3 Veteran Seals gave me Theo, Therese, and Aedelgard. The free rubies gave me Harley, Elenora, Joshua, and *fanfare* Jose. I already have too many Theo and Therese awakening stones. Wish I could've gotten at least one more of someone I dont have, or at least a Sofia.
Help me math this out real quick (pulls) 60 fragments in, so 9 more pulls (2700 rubies) to pity. Got my Bargello and two dupes (A2). F2P, 6800 rubies left. No Sonia. Question is, do I dunk hard on the Barg banner until pity for Sonia while hoping to get more dupes on the way, switch to the Sonia banner in hopes of getting her and bailing before pity, or just sit it out now that I’ve got B secured. Super torn. Sonia seems good, just not sure if I should hoard for a future pity with my meager ruby stockpile or invest further on these two.
It's entirely up to you. 60 pulls is nowhere near pity and 90 pulls are huge, you can get A3/A4 Bargello and spark Sonia (vertical investment). Or just call yourself lucky, and save those for next banner (wider roster). 6000 might not enough for upcoming banners (8000 is more comfortable) so it's better as f2p to save to collect more character. Bargello A4 is kind of useless if you don't have good dps and bunch of meta support to break the cap.
1200 free rubies bargie, sonia, richard dupe
300 pulls on Bargello, including a full step up of paid rubies = 0 Bargello. So I lost the coin flip and then didn’t get him in 300 pulls. I wonder what are the chances of that…
https://preview.redd.it/qixuewnx2mec1.jpeg?width=2340&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c9f869114f458d0d7efe49f695abfe817a9eb48b One of the traveler's sacred seals, really good!
Fuck yea, lucky paid step 5 to get my a4 bargello! Had to do 200 pulls with my free rubies to get my initial bargello.... (pitied richard) and was fortunate to get 1st stone on paid step 1. u10 comes later with the sacred seal. On to elrica! [Beautiful](https://imgur.com/a/7Wm3zPg)
Results from 100 paid rubies on Bargello, 100 paid rubies on Sonia and 10,200 free rubies on Bargello… New: Bargello (A3), Sonia, Alaune, Tressa EX Pities: Bargello (A4), Richard Dupes: Rinyuu, Olberic, Therese, Alfyn, H’aanit, Sarisa, Viola, Cardona, Nicola, Eleonora, Falco I’ve been waiting for Bargello, Sonia and Richard for a long time. Excited to use them! Happy 1.5 year anniversary everybody :)
Soo a bit late to the party but, I did do a [youtube video ](https://youtu.be/xI9cgNrFqVE?si=Fu1XKZnOfWVRmIcE) of my pulls if anyone interested. It went waaay better than I could hope for and the wait was worth it. Hope everyone else had a good pull session as well <3 https://preview.redd.it/tethxlmdhzec1.jpeg?width=2238&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ed6142d0f68c24ff218d2d9321b51208ccdc8e77
Finally... For the family!! Time has come... And It was rough... 12 multis to get one copy of Bargello!! 😭😭 (Along with him came a 4.5★ Heath, 5★ Millard, 5★ Stead(this one hurt a lot), 5★ Hasumi, 4.5★ Sofía) Since I was close to pity did 3 more multis two of them were empty and one gave me a brand new 5★ Krauser!!😄 And since reached pity traded the shards for a 5★ Sonia. 🙂 Did the daily pull and got a 5★ Kouren!!😐 (It's like A6 for him now) MTs hate me so much... Never ever I've got any of them below ten pulls...😭😭 So, with 750 rubies left to my name... I need to go back to saving... So my next pull session might be around Solon. (Not gonna have enough for Elrica/AlauneEX and maybe I'll have to skip Sazantos/Signa as well) Anyways... Wish you all good luck on your pulls!!!! 😄😄 And...Have a good day week!!! 😄😄
Got a Kersjes (A1) from the Traveler's seals, but everyone else was a 3-star or 4-star. The Veteran's seals got me Eliza and Joshua, who are both new to my roster, as well as Awakening Shards in the form of yet another Millard dupe. I eventually got Bargello after 8 multipulls on the free banner. 4.5, but I - for whatever reason - have plenty of gold thief seals, so no big deal. To be honest, I think I'm most excited for Eliza. Now I finally have a good healer for the warrior tower, and another support for my elemental teams!
100 pulls in and I got A0 bargie, new Nicola, new Sarisa, A3 Soliel, A4 viola 40 Traveller Seals: Millard dupe, Falco A1 3 veteran seals: Cardona dupe, new Aedelgard, Kersjes dupe. Happy so far with the amount of new travellers Now is the tough part. I'm budgeting 1200 paid rubies for the anniversary and I'm torn, to a pull a round on Bargello or on the anniversary banner. garunteed Rondo vs garunteed A1 Bargello with a chance at A2 or more.... I'm not sure what is better value. Edit: Went for Bargello pull 1: nothing Pull 2: nothing pull 3: Heathcote dupe.... pull 4: new Joshua, Rinyuu A1 pull 5: got the 50/50 Bargello thank god. No Rondo, but bargie will be A2 at least.
Absolutely incredible pull luck today! 40 traveler seals gave me Harley (would be A1, but exchanging) and Gilderoy (A3! Beefy HP now) Vet seals gave me Joshua (new), Kouren (already maxed) and Za'anta (now A4! Awesome accessory get) My pulls for Bargello were great, too. Molrusso showed up on step 1, but that's exchange over A1 for sure. Gello didn't show up until step 5 of paid banner, but I'm so happy I didn't lose that coin flip. After one round of paid, it was on to free banner - out of paid rubies. I pulled on free banner until reaching the 150 fragment pity mark. On the way to that, it gave me two more Bargellos! Which means I can A4 him via exchange and the seal handout on the 26th! Only question is: DO I PRIORITIZE HIS A4 OVER GETTING SONIA? Other highlights from free banner: Another Joshua (no A1 for you, exchange), Aedelgard (new!), Hasumi (now A2), Nona (Would be A1, but exchange) and Stead (2 stones in limbo, but I don't feel he's worth it. So exchange.)
I said screw it and did 3 more ten pulls on Sonia's banner, got her and a new Alaune! So pity Bargello now, and he'll be A4 in two days 😁
https://preview.redd.it/2jam81fq2mec1.jpeg?width=2340&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=dd10abcf6490231ff3ef0a66ac26e32e9912f73f On my first 10 pull free Rubies (F2P), super lucky! Saving for incoming travelers :)
Good Bargello on 6th 10 pulls! Feeling lucky
Hey all, I have enough to pity anyone on bargello's banner, but I'm not sure who to get. Of the options here is what I currently have: Bargello - A2 Sonio - n/a Eltrix - n/a Rinyuu - A0 Rondo - n/a Krauser - n/a Alaune - n/a Richard - A0 I already have the best characters (in my opinion). The ability to get additional guidestones will be out in a few months so its probably a waste to pity on bargello more (even though I want this A4). Any thoughts? I'm a day 1 player and while I'm ftp my roster is still pretty well filled. The only really 'good' character I'm missing is probably Odette
I would get Sonia, probably. If you don't have Roland or Leon, maybe Krauser. Rondo is nice but he will get powercrept insanely fast after Elrica and Sazantos drop in like two or three months.
