- I had the same impression, it's like there's double the side stories to play. But looking carefully I think it's just like during the other banners, but this one is so pop and colorful that it looks bigger compared to the others. The shop, too, I feel like has more stuff (double the stickers, several music tracks). Then you have the clothes rerun (which I immediately grabbed because those come from catch-22 and I was already resigned that I wouldn't get them), the new outfits, the promise event, the floral head accessory, the black turtleneck outfit (which is so delicious, my god). There IS more stuff to do around.
- I'm still thinking about the banner outfits. I have RafMC, but I'm eyeing the red one too. I don't think I'll keep on pulling to the next crate, so Sylus will stay sans dance outfit, but MC's is really calling me. If you go for more than 3 you might as well buy the package that gives all 5, it will cost less diamonds.
- For battles they fixed a couple of routing issues with LSG and KOD where MC spawned in the wrong place when using a certain skill, but mostly they finally worked that battle level where you need to stay in the circle with the...thing while it charges, and if any wonderer steps into the circle it goes red and you lose progress. Well now no more, when you step out of the circle or a wonderer goes in the loading simply stops until you clear the circle again, you don't lose progress. And if you kill all the wonderers it's also an automatic win, you don't have to wait for the thing to load up to 100% anymore.
There probably is something else but I can't remember it now. Unfortunately we still have that awful timer starting before you even reach the battle arena and the enemies have spawned. Maybe at a certain point we'll get that fixed too.
- Speaking of battles, I am stuck at fire orbit 190 and while I cried a bit because Raf's card is yellow and I really wanted a red or blue, it was still useful because I swapped it with the one I was using before and got a bit more DMG boost. Congrats on your open orbit! Usually the hard battles are every 5 levels, so you should be able to climb to 75 without issue and get some sweet red diamonds out of it.
- And speaking of Raf's card, I finally managed to play it and I love it so much. So so good. It's Banquet Ablaze 2.0, so that 4-star should be watched before this card. What was hilarious was how random the dance off was. I can just imagine the meeting with his writing team at infold like "This script is bomb, we really outdid ourselves this time" "Yes I'm very proud of you, but this is an idol banner? We need a scene where they dance a choreo?" "Uhhhhhhh yeah IDK at a certain point they want to twerk a bit, but then we go back to the bomb script!"
Like, I don't think I can convey just how hilarious this scene is once you read the story. It's so absolutely random.
Another big thing that I'm noticing is that finally the LIs are sitting when they're described as sitting in the car or on the couch! They're using the correct poses to do that! I might cry!
P.S. Illusio is back for this banner, so have fun!
