Re: Jan 12th- Kingdom Hearts Unchained ? ENG Update - Meet Skuld!

Now that we're at Atlantica medals, anyone think the Little Mermaid HSC could be up soon? I'd like to prep by getting the appropriate score boost medals for that HSC. However, it'd be interesting if Ill Kairi is the score boost medal for Ariel given she does exactly what the JP Ariel medal does and more.

They're officially in the game data so yes.

So I'd have to pull from this current deal (Ill Kairi + Atlantica) before it ends to get the boost? I don't tend to pay attention to HSC timing, but does the medal draw for the score boost end before the HSC starts?

They're going to hear about returning the guaranteed premium medal pull to ten. I saved up my jewels for a day like this, and then they pull this on me. Way to make a day-one KHUnx gamer feel appreciated, SENA.

From videos I'm watching, many players believe SENA might go back to 5-pulls after this specific EMC. Ill Kairi only came out 2 months ago and costed many players 30,000 jewels. If they released her again now for only 12,500 jewels, they'd be "hearing" from much more bitter players. She already dropped 5,000 in cost, but if she dropped 15,000+, people would be hesitant to ever spend again, fearing that the medal would come up in a few months >50% off.

However, going forward with new medals or medals that haven't come out as recently as 2 months, perhaps they will go back to 5-pulls.

either way, i'll just wait for the 5-pull deals to come back before i start spending jewels.

Re: Jan 12th- Kingdom Hearts Unchained ? ENG Update - Meet Skuld!

Urgh. That's kind of crushing. I'm nowhere NEAR 25,000 jewels and there's no way I'll reach that mark before this event ends without spending a lot of real-world cash.

I'm kind of torn. I'm running out of space in my medal inventory and I don't have many level up/evolve medals left. I don't even have enough jewels for the guarantee. Should I go for it anyways? >__>

Re: Jan 12th- Kingdom Hearts Unchained ? ENG Update - Meet Skuld!

^(I'm going to be very vague here, but if you don't want to be spoiled be careful) There is going to be a medal that is pretty similar to coming out possibly in the early Spring, or maybe earlier. I actually wouldn't be too concerned about this.

The problem is we don't know if that medal will be given to us fairly like it was in the Japanese version. It may not be five pulls. It may not even be ten. It may be locked behind a massive paywall like HD Mickey and the like.

Otherwise, the nearly guaranteed upcoming HSC is going to have some great buff medals as rewards. They won't have the heal like Illustrated Kairi, but if it's the buff you're looking for, try to compete in the HSC.

I'm already aware of Ill. KH2 Kairi. It restores 7 SP gauges, right? It sounds good, but it doesn't have that power boost that Ill. KH1 Kairi has...

Speaking of he Atlantica buff medals. Can you give me some details on what those are like, at least in the JP version?

[spoiler]Well, either way it's an incredible medal. I believe it heals, too. It's buff is inferior, but that can be dealt with for everything else it offers.

Sebastian offers an attack boost of three tiers for one turn (just like Illutrated Kairi) but for 6SP Cost. (You definitely want a 1SP cost skill for this one)

Ariel and Flounder offers the same but for 3SP cost.

Sebastian will be the only medal that I have even the slightest chance of getting, if I can even do that. =( I don't want to waste jewels on the current EMC because I don't have enough to guarantee Illustrated Kairi, and I want to make sure that when Illustrated KHII Kairi comes around I do.[/spoiler]

10 SP gauges, and she provides a 1 tier elemental buff (user)/debuff (enemy), so you can stack her with Ill. KH1 Kairi.

Wait, Illustrated KH2 Kairi might be coming soon? Omg I wanted that medal soo much. XD But, it also comes with FIXED damage and debuffs! Meaning chu can defeat even those egg enemies in one hit and bypass the defense. :o If chu consider that, it truly is worth it. Kairi so OP...XD

I'm so glad Skuld came out earlier then I expected. ( I expected they would include all of the major update with Skuld next week, so getting her today was really cool. ^_^ I think I mentioned it before, but Skuld's among my top three favorite Unchained X characters with Ephemer and Ava. :3 Kinda wish I could meet her irl, in a way. :o
