Every1 should play this game the way they like to play it, whether it's considered to be a good or sensible playstyle or not. I definitely won't sell my champs (anymore, did that once, not again).
Would be great though for you to get some of those champs awakened.
Hopefully your luck will last
Added two more to the roster due to my strategy. And the team synergy
is amazing when I rank everyone.
So getting 25 5* in 6 months it sounds like crazy, since Ive been playing the game like all the time, and progressing relatively quick
And this is my 5* luck LOL,
pulling out all trash champ aside from Domino
Right off the bat, I’m a fairly avid arena grinder. I did it mostly to ramp up my 4* roster during the beginner/intermediate brackets, but over time the PHC shards I accumulated would net me a fair number of 3* dupes (= 4* shards) and 4* dupes (= 5* shards). The more 4*s I accumulated from the basic and featured 4* arena, the more likely I was to open dupes from my 4* shard crystals, which would net me 5* shards at a reasonable pace.
Second of all, I had a lot of very good pointers from veteran players early on in the game, and I was able to clinch the Uncollected title just shy of two months into the game. Needless to say, I spent some arena units to ensure that I ran a UEQ completion that month, and a 100% each subsequent months. UEQ, MEQ, and HEQ exploration each month is just shy of 10,000 5* shards, and that’s excluding any side event rewards.
Now at this point, about two months in I was sitting on around 5 5*s. I started the game a couple days after the SA calendar launched, and at this point this netted me another 5*. Grandmaster shard crystals were kind to me, while I 100%ed Act 4 and and ran an initial completion on Act 5 as soon as I could. Total 5* around 9-10 at this point, especially as I was able to open my first dungeon 5* crystal.
Then comes the the Time After Time event, where we got the chance to collect unified crystal shards, 4000 of which would give you the chance to open a grandmaster unified crystal. As well as completing the side quest itself, you could collect a large number of shards from arena milestones during the ‘champ selector’ arenas. Needless to say, being an arena grinder anyway, I hit as many milestones as possible, and opened around 30 grandmaster unified crystals. In total, I got 7 5* pulls from these (fairly lucky I realise), plus one from Epic difficulty exploration (5* unified crystal), and another 5* from Master difficult exploration (4-5 legendary unified crystal). An additional 5* was obtained from the 5* shards accumulated through exploring these two difficulties. Total count from this month, from this event alone = 10. Throw in another 5* from EQ exploration (UC through to Heroic), and one more from Boss Rush completion. This brought my total pull count up to around 20-22 5*s by the end of my third month (a couple dupes ofc).
Fourth month, here we go. This was where I joined an avid AW alliance. We won most of our wars, finishing in G1 overall and netting a generous amount of shards from war victories and the season rewards (+1 5*). This was the month I pulled a 5* Sentinel, so I ranked him up to 3/45, and alongside my 5/50 Ghost and my 4/55 Sparky, I was able to run an initial completion on Variant 3 (+1 5*). I made a start on Variant 2 (mostly relying on Thing w/ full synergy team, Sentinel, Ghulk, AA, and Domino w/trinity), and finally finished exploring Act 5.4 (which gets you 10,000 5* shards and a fully formed 5* crystal - so, 2+ 5*s). I opened my second dungeon crystal (+1 5*), and formed another 5* crystal from shards accumulated via quests/summoner advancement/arena 1-10% milestones/4* dupes. GMCs were not kind to me this month. Total pull count, roughly 26-28 at this point.
In the last three weeks, I finished my initial completion run on Variant 2 (+1 5*), and opened my first 6*. Act 5 exploration progression, 4* dupes and AW gained me another via shards. Total count here is 29-30 5*s opened, resulting in 25 5* and some dupes.
I’m sure I missed out a couple of details here and there, but that’s as well as I can remember on my commute. I purchased the daily units cards (735 units/month for 4.99, and the summoner’s sigil, which nets you more units and 5* shards weekly. My units almost exclusively went towards masteries, energy refills, and items to finish harder content. Hope it’s helpful for anyone else looking to progress, happy to answer any questions x
Currently, 2 out of 3 4*s I pull are dupes. That means for roughly every 3 4* crystals I open, I’m getting 550 5* shards. In comparison, for every 3 4*s YOU open, you’re getting less than a third of that from selling them. Food for thought.
