I do hope that the dev will just let this slide though because we have been having hard time farming monsterlings but do understand the abuse angle.

Like the title says, I have Esther at Awakening 2 with her signature weapon, Wind-Harboring Broom, at Fusion II. I'm loving Esther (she's currently my favourite character to play), but I'm unsure if her third awakening is worth pulling for (I do have the resources to get it). The 4.5% cooldown decrease is less than a second and I don't know if two extra skill levels are worth using resources on.

I am spending money on the game, but I don't plan to buy premium currency outright (the Primordial Star shop section) or *every* limited-time pack or relay offer. I don't intend to full-on whale in this game; I'm enjoying the launch of the game with some extra spending, but I'd say I'll end up being more of a budget player eventually (some packs and relay offers here and there but nothing that would concern family, friends, an accountant or a doctor).

Thanks in advance for any advice.

Specyfically for Esther, Flare, Mina or Ophelia?

Also, between Mina and Esther, which one needs her weapon more? I have enough pulls to get one.

Honeymoon is over, let's address this.

Problems:

- 2hrs daily to grind monsterlings. That's stupid.

- Map is about to expand which will make this worse.

- Monsterling filter is severely lacking. You know what we want (gold trait filter, mass combine possible mutations, etc)

- Rift only 3 weekly sucks, make it 5

- Mina in story was a A1 Mina giving her access to her second clone. Don't do it again, put the free version

- Standard banner selector. Let us choose which character we want to target. You're gonna power creep all of them eventually so why do you care? OR better yet create a system where you can make a standard 5* a copy of another. So I can turn a Sangun copy into a Flare copy for example. Just an idea.

- SKILL BOOKS!!!!! LIKE.....lemme calm down. Where are they? :) cause they're shown to be green rarity in paths and THEY ARE NOT and I do not see any attempt to address this. Skill ups help us who can't do 13+ for Conquest get to 13+ rather than leveling crap gear.

- Skill books reset after rift resets? If not why do you have a timer at the bottom of it? Is it going away? Forever? Is it gonna reset? Idk, rift ends in 3 days and nobody knows.

I can't think of anything else atm, add in comments if you like.

Good things:

- Mina was fixed quick (but she's their cash cow so it makes sense)

- Lots of giveaways due to bugs, quick action

- Amazing character designs so far (Mina, Ester, Narae) but you need to keep improving them to keep the players engaged. Pull another Wuwa, be like the Devs not the game. ACTUALLY PLAY YOUR GAME NETMARBLE. We can tell you don't.

- Konosuba vibe, keep it or you will lose players I guarantee you. You can go dark, go as dark as ReZero idc but keep that "world" alive.

- Lots of giveaways again but we know that's because NTE has them by the balls. Competition is good, let it be known.

- Story is amazing, everyone is on their seats waiting for that opening scene to happen.

- Respects your time ASIDE from farming.

Solutions:

- Improve character design as you move forward

- More key generation and increase on cap

- Fix skill books rates

- FIX MONSTERLING FILTER

- Fix farming goddamnit, create a DISPATCH SYSTEM

- Etc, use your imaginations.

Lastly keep in mind, NTE is not your only competition. Your competition is really Azur Promellia. That's what folks who like this are going to go, so make your game "casual" chill and relaxing with some funny and even dark moments. Azur cannot compete with that, it will soak up player time and they'll have to choose to drop one between NTE, Wuwa, Star Savior and Azur. Many players will drop Star Savior, but stay a chill casual fun game and you immediately become different. Not exhausting to play. Also you'll hook people with actual money to spend because those guys don't have the time to be playing games and living life.

Hiya Mongil community! I have a in-game code that I won from ROG. Not sure what it gives. I assume it may be worth $20 USD give or take. No plans to play so better to give this away to those who actually are deep into it. All I ask is that you get back to me on exactly what you get for redeeming it as I am curious.

To enter, give me your sales pitch on the game. Why do you play? Any comparisons to other games from similar genres? Mobile or PC? Are you committed just for your favorite character? Feel free to add whatever topic.

Please add "Flare" in your reply so I can see that you are interested in the code. I'll choose a winner on May 8, 2026. Will update/reply the winner on this post and DM the code. I look forward to reading your replies!

If you do receive the code, best to redeem as soon as possible. I am not sure if there is an expiration date.

Edit: Dang misspelled Drive for Dive. Oh well, damage is done.

Hello there.

I really loved the game at first. But now, after expending tons of keys and gold (and time, ofc) building Mina, flare and Sangun at level 60 (Jiwon too), level 9 every skill, maxing Mina's artifact...i find no monsterlings to finish their builds (and ofc, no goo 4* artifact for Sangun and Flare) because i should combine a ton of shit to get their BiS. Result? Not able to do any lvl 13 conquest, not able to clean lvl 3 Rift...And because of the lack of quality monsterlings drops, gear crafting materials, etc idk even know how to improve my roster to keep pushing stages.

Due to all of this, i'm really close to drop a game i loved when i starting playing it.

Am I the only one feeling this way?

Am i just trash at this game or is the difficulty jump from rift 2 to rift 3 insane? Rift 2 was so easy but the next level is crazy difficult and there's supposed to be 20+ levels of this? I was expecting a gradual difficulty spike as you climb up and certainly wasn't expecting it to be so hard on just the third level

When you purchase the subscription there are 2 useful things autocapture and getting infinite amount of monsterlings in your inventory...

Well both of these are right now U-SE-LESS.

The autocapture you know why, cause of the loot lag and the souls disappearing and appearing after revisiting... Actually revisiting is better done with manual loot than having to wait for the cat to appear... So it is better not having autoloot cause with autoloot you can't manually loot souls.

And the monsterling limit... Well if you go over 3k monsterling in your bag there is no problem in the monsterling amount, but the game does not allow you to open any chest nor to ENTER PATHS while you have over 3k monsterlings in your bag... I haven't tried using tickets in a banner just in case I get fucked and lose the drops... I know that NM would never give me the tickets back, they would just close the bug report.

So now I have to salvage/fuse monsterlings under 3k or I can do nothing. Exactly the same I would have to do WITHOUT SUBSCRIPTION. Seriously...

Such a good purchase... That just unsubscribed ofc. Rant's over.

I'm the only one who thinks Rin it's the most difficult boss at this moment? Like all the other bosses are manageable but Rin? She is a bullet hell and so hard to break the shield I got less problems whit Duoxini and Hanul, the only other boss that was difficult was Avardan, idk if it's only me or someone else feel that pyke in difficult

See description of video.
Showcase done on Custos because Avardan dies too fast.

I have Francis and also Esther, Ophelia and Jiwon. I really like Mina’s gameplay, but without a way to guarantee flair, I’m wondering how useful she could be. Maybe the next banner will give me the character I need?
