besides lucrative items like upgrade stones, pull currency, and animated background, esther's event shop was a scam in terms of rewards to keys spent. it was way better to spend keys on the paths to get those items instead.

is mina's event shop also the same case? thx

A minor patch today and they still havent:

- Added lvled up equipment to be salvageable, which they promised and said it was a mistake because lvled up equipment had a different internal id. This should be a very simple fix and they didnt do it yet after a week.

- Disappearing mon bug. This is a harder issue to tackle, but this is more game breaking. At this point, it seems they just dont want to add more server cost and are ok with losing players fed up with this.

If I forgot something, please chime in.

Ive been stuck on rift 27 with an a0f1 mina, a0 angel or a1 yeonhwa, and a2 francis. The mini boss halfway takes too long to kill.

I have been using mina during the stagger windows instead of angel. Saw somewhere to say use angel during stagger because assassins do alot more dmg during stagger.

So I used a shit ton of resources to build up angel the rest of the way. Already lvl 60, lvled up talents to 9. I gave her all of my esther equipment and artifacts. She is over 8000 atk, capped cr/cdmg with food buffs, and has good monlings.

But during the stagger phase, she is not doing any more damage than mina during stagger phase. In fact, shes during worse than mina. What I do at the start of stagger is switch to francis for atk buff, then switch to angel and start with her ult, then skill and basic attack until stagger window is over.

Feels like I wasted a ton of resources on bad advice. Like to hear other peoples input on this. Thx.

I just figured this out and surprised I didnt see a guide on this before, so I will share it. I just got my purple 4* el dorado to 5* doing this. And moving traits only cost me 20 puree (only 2 traits) because I failed once. But spending 20 puree is better than spending a golden upgrade stone!

Now why would you want to do this? Because they gave only 3 gold upgrade stones for f2p players. I think the only extra ones you can get are from the monthly subscription. So you want to save those gold upgrade stones for rare monlings.

FYI, this works best with a monster you have alot of (i.e. el dorado). Would advise not using this technique on a monster you have scarce amounts of. I would use el dorado as the example here.

Step 1. Try to get as many 5* monlings you can (any fodder kind). The best way to do this is to batch combine all monlings you dont need for mutations to fill up your pokedex, dont have 5* traits, etc... Lock all the good ones, batch combine the rest. This may cost alot of gold though.

As you batch combine, you may start getting purple 4* monlings. Include the 4* monlings in the batch combine auto select, and then you may start getting orange 5* monlings after batch combining.

I batch combined like 1600 monlings, and got like 4-5 five* monlings. It did cost alot, like 12M gold.

Step 2. Now if you have been doing the daily el dorado, you should have alot of 3* el dorados. Don't use the el dorado you already have 5* traits on. Use only fodder el dorados you have been saving. Now this step is to try to get one of these 3* el dorados into a 4* el dorado. There are several ways to do this.

You can combine two 3* el dorados until you get a 4* el dorado. This is only a 20% chance to get a 4* el dorado, but you get el dorado back all the time.

Another method is to combine a 3* el dorado with a 4* monling that you dont need. It has a 25* to get a 4* el dorado, 25* to get a 3* el dorado, or 50* to get the other monling back.

Alternatively, you may yolo and try to combine a 3* el dorado with a 5* monling you dont need. You could consider doing this if you dont have alot to work with and feeling lucky. It has these outcome rates:

5* el dorado - 20%, 5* other - 20%

4* el dorado - 17.5%, 4* other - 17.5%

3* el dorado - 12.5%, 3* other - 12.5%

Step 3. If you were able to get a 4* el dorado from this, now its time to try to get a 5* el dorado. If you managed to get a 5* el dorado straight from combining a 3* el dorado with a 5* monling, congrats and you dont need this part.

Take your 4* el dorado and combine with a 5* monling. The outcome rates are:

5* el dorado - 25%, 5* other - 25%

4* el dorado - 25%, 4* other - 25%

Step 4. Now if you have your 5* el dorado, its time to combine with your existing el dorado that has 5* traits. Combine and use puree to lock in the traits. You will always get an el dorado as the result, but it may be 3,4,5* depending on the quality of el dorados you put in. Hopefullyt it doesnt cost you too much puree to get the 5* el dorado with the locked traits.

After todays refresh, got 3 free tickets and 3 tickets in the mail. The 3 tickets in mail were added as charge tickets. I noticed rift was consuming free tickets before any charge tickets.

Bought rift shop tickets and those are also charge tickets.

Do charge tickets have an expiration? Thanks

Ive been trying to get gold crit rate for more than a week. Finally got it after batch combining a shit ton of monlings. I was stupidly salvaging common monlings I dont need for the first half week. Its very costly, but ever since they gave out 2500 keys, I can just use keys for gold every day to fund this. Maybe i got lucky, but I spent like 12M gold and got 3x cdmg, 1 crit rate, 1 skill cd, and several different element dmg and res/hp etc..., probably 10+ gold traits.

So if you need certain gold traits and have the gold to dump into this:

Batch combine them and sort by trait quality after each time. I would do this after locking all the important ones and mutating everything u have that can fill the pokedex first tho.
