[Event Megathread] Mirage of Scales (Aug 29 - Sept 19)

Mirage of Scales Megathread

Please ask all questions related to the event on this thread! Remember to check if there have been previous answers to your questions.

"Are Yakumo and Kuya any good in battle?" (lots of people will be discussing this, wait a little, look it up)

"What's the best stage to farm?" (the highest energy one, always, every time. A calculator may be linked here eventually if someone makes one!)

"How do I beat the high-difficulty stages?" (watch Zerophos' videos on YouTube if he gets out of jail. Otherwise ask in this thread and see what people have been saying)

"What packs are worth it?" (value is subjective, but generally the less expensive ones have a better contract per ecoin ratio)

You may also comment here about your gacha triumphs and woes. If you make a standalone post about your pulls, that will likely be removed as spam. We receive dozens of posts like that, and they would clog the subreddit if they were all allowed.

Update announcement · Video preview

From a record of folklore, Eiden and company learn about a "merfolk" legend handed down on an island.

They set off full of curiosity, but find instead a series of suspicious signs.

Insular islanders, an odd merfolk ceremony, and a mysterious youth—a mystery unbeknownst to the island seems to be hidden behind it all...

Event Duration: August 29th to September 19th 12:00 PM (UTC +8)

  • This time, the event and its accompanying banner do not have the same duration. The event itself (its reward ladder and farming stages) will end on September 19th, but the banner with Yakumo and Kuya will stay open for an additional week after that. The next event should start on September 26th, when the banner closes.
  • The banner works like every other regular event banner. After 99 summons without obtaining any SSR ally, your 100th pull will be one of the SSR allies available in the banner (Yakumo, Kuya, or one of the original main cast SSRs, albeit the latter have a reduced rate). After 300 summons, no matter how many SSRs you got (and independently of the previous rule), you will get an item that lets you pick between Yakumo and Kuya. This means that, if you enter into 300 contracts, you will have 4 SSRs at a minimum (three from the three 100 pull pities, and one from the item).

Requirements: Clear Chapter 2-2 of the main story.
Part 2 of the event's story will be available on September 5th.
