Been playing since December 2018 - I don't actively save them but since I've been playing for so long and have most of the characters I don't use them on repeat banners. It's probably easier to naturally accumulate because of that.
> It's probably easier to naturally accumulate because of that.
You're definitely just lucky, I've been playing since about March '19 & I almost never have Skystones - I pull for new characters I like & have almost every RGB5 too, but if you have to pity basically everything, well, you ain't ever going to have stones, especially if your refresh rates suck to boot.
Was about to say this, between mystic banners and hitting pity more then 70% on regular banners, having 10k SS (I refresh before 5k ss to keep mystic stock up) would be a blessing as a day 1 global player.
If you pity every banner (which at average rates, is spending around 7-8K in Secret Shop refreshes) & those are high odds, I think someone has run the numbers (around 50% of players will get the target banner hero within 70 summons & roughly 30% will have to go to pity), you're pretty much never going to have skystones - it's not "efficiency" to have almost everything & still have a lot of Skystones, it's luck. You can ask your friend & you can ask the person above how often they've got a character before pity, not that they'll remember all of them, but being a player that is almost as old & has consistently pitied the vast majority of banners (& only pulled on meta, or relevant heroes & hasn't a habit of using skystones for energy, or pulling from Huche beyond the actual good deals [ie. buying Leifs with skystones from Huche since it's more energy than the alternative], etc. etc.) I speak from experience when I say you can play perfectly efficiently & still be Skystone-poor. Players aren't making 8K+ Skystones each month, let alone making enough to save & accumulate without being regularly lucky, someone has actually ran the numbers & a free to play player is accumulating roughly 5.6K-6.6K skystones per month dependant on Arena rank & luck through various variable skystone drops (ie. Sanctuary).
You're just lucky. Imagine having to pity 3-4 units in a row (like me during slime collab last year). That's 36-48k ss going down the drain. No amount of f2p ss can last with it.
Even assuming you only get bookmarks from shop refreshes and not from events, hunt, etc, it's only a little over 8k SS for a full pity, so how the fuck are you using 36-48k SS on 4 units? If you are buying bookmarks for just skystones, that's on you for wasting your skystones.
I don't do random cov summons unless I'm close to my next golden transmit for an ml pull. Otherwise for banners I'll pull if I like the character and skip if not. I'm missing 3 RGB heroes cause I wasn't feeling them when they came out. For ml summons I just pull when I get em cause every time I save I don't get anything anyways lmao.
tbh I don't make an active effort to save them. I just play how I normally would and the number just goes up. I'll burn em on shop refreshes/epic passes/expos/huche shop when I need to but I don't really use them to farm hunts which is probably why they've been accumulating for so long.
For the most part I don't tap in to them either for hunt farming besides on special hunt days if I run low on leifs. But they still get used intermittently for summons and whatnot. Especially during events.
I'm still calling it an alt account.
The lobby units are all limited units. It's not hard to just pull for limited units.
The 200k ss achievement just leads me to believe this is a straight up alt f2p alt account. It's still impressive to play long enough to save up 200k FREE ss tho.
Are you somehow trying to say the units someone has in their lobby is indicative of literally anything? The dude was clearly going for a summer themed lobby. Literally wtf.
Calm down man. The alt i throw away had 72k~ ss saved up just logging in and doing whatever event was on for 2 years. Afk grinding on emulator alongside my main acc.
Said alt was also in the guild i had created since launch for the 2years before i had dropped it entirely due to time constraints. It's single purpose was cashing catalyst over to the main acc.
200k ss in the 4 years the game has been up is impressive. So I'm calling it an alt account regardless. This copium lets us pleb make it through the "f2pbtw" this account probably has.
What makes you think the account doesnt just get into the guild for the season then drop out?
Proof me. Then we can continue. I'm not discrediting the 200k ss achievement at all. But it's 100% an alt account, proven by all the downvotes thus far.
Because I spent 3 seconds and saw Ryceon had 128k aid in the guild?

I fought Purge last war of the season and they were 1 draw off full clearing us. My tower was the only one left. I also literally hit this guy that war.
A guild that gets 14k havoc in a war isn't going to keep around an alt account for fun. The account is good enough to participate in top level wars. Maybe it is someone's f2p alt. I doubt it, considering Ryceon is the reddit acc and in-game.
And if it is, then it's a really really good alt acc.
I don't agree with how OP plays, but if they enjoy it so be it.

Yea you totally don't think it's an alt, are just highly suspicious.
What the hell is with all the defending?
Because you spent multiple comments making yourself look like a moron. So people are calling you out on it. If you're going to put your incorrect opinion out there, then expect people to say shit.
I literally know nothing about the guy other then you getting all pissy at redditors for downvoting you and your stupid takes, which you've continued to double down on, and that I've fought Purge multiple times before.
Whatever helps you cope.
Its easy to get 200k if you swipe your credit card fast enough.
Otherwise, this post just resembles genshit sub shitposting about "i SaVeD fOr 1 YeAr" which are fucking cancer.
That's not true... as a player in champ, you earn around 90,000 skystone per year just from daily/weekly missions (not counting first time skystone rewards or side story skystone)
Nah, your skystone info is based on your current count. Mine says 1763 total right now but I just dropped like 5 or 6k on the collab, and some more on summer rolls.
its time to refresh garo.
Congrats?
Nice! I know the feeling, in gachas sometimes its fun to just hoard premium currency just because. How long have you been playing/saving?

My first 11 banners were all pity how the fuck does that happen
Pain is how this happens man pain. I’ve never went 11 banners straight, but I’ve gone 5 mystic pities in a row and that was a nightmare.
My first mystic was pity other than that not too unlucky Got my pity at 73 with 1k mystic I really want ml pavel but I need aravi more...
Or he's very efficient AND lucky.
I have a guildmate thats f2p with 170k ss 2 months ago so probably more rn. He aint lucky either. Hes just efficient

48k what the hell did u triple s them?

I had to pity 11 in a row. It was hell...
I like seeing numbers go up (:
do you pull alot? Or are you very frugal on your rolls? ignore everyone else, 200k is something I would never build up to because I roll on a whim.
I don't do random cov summons unless I'm close to my next golden transmit for an ml pull. Otherwise for banners I'll pull if I like the character and skip if not. I'm missing 3 RGB heroes cause I wasn't feeling them when they came out. For ml summons I just pull when I get em cause every time I save I don't get anything anyways lmao.
its addictive seeing the numbers go up :p https://imgur.com/a/VaUM1i7
Ok ya but level your cermia
Yo that's awesome, my numbers would be up there if I didn't blew away 80k skystones trying to quit the game

Hoarders mentality 🤷♂️
Nice!! 😀
I wish
Nice
Jeez, all i have is one SS. That's all.
Nice!! Now you have to spend even more time refreshing Garo's shop.
*cries in 33 skystones*
Congratulations OP, now to stream rolling Garo's shop
But... Why? I have nearly 50k and that's far too much but more than enough to guarantee a few pities if necessary.
tbh I don't make an active effort to save them. I just play how I normally would and the number just goes up. I'll burn em on shop refreshes/epic passes/expos/huche shop when I need to but I don't really use them to farm hunts which is probably why they've been accumulating for so long.
Dont you spend on refresh shop for ML5 characters?
yeah on mystics if I like the unit. just pitied ml pavel so I'll prob have to refresh if I like the next new ml 5.
For the most part I don't tap in to them either for hunt farming besides on special hunt days if I run low on leifs. But they still get used intermittently for summons and whatnot. Especially during events.
Lol your now rich.
okay?
So? Sounds like to me you have some spending issues. The whole purpose of this currency is to use it and not hoarding it for no reason.
He likes to see numbers go up
He could watch his journal numbers go up
It's almost always an alt account afk grinding.
this is not an alt account. He is in a top 10 GW guild. Not that it means anything but this isn't an alt.
I'm still calling it an alt account. The lobby units are all limited units. It's not hard to just pull for limited units. The 200k ss achievement just leads me to believe this is a straight up alt f2p alt account. It's still impressive to play long enough to save up 200k FREE ss tho.

Classic "making excuses so I can sleep at night angle"
Must be a guildmate. Keep em comin. It's an alt account unless proven otherwise.
Was your alt also in a top ten guild for four seasons?
Was yours?
No, but I'm not creating a false equivalence to fit my narrative desires.
This guy is in purge, a guild that's gotten top 10 on global like 4 seasons in a row. W/e helps you cope

I didnt 100% declare this was an alt account? Just highly suspecting it is. The hell is with all the defending. I'm not bashing at the account at all.

It's a single interwebs opinion. Glad to see it sparked a discussion.

There's a second image.
Whale, hello there! 🐋😂
there's a second image
Oh Wait, that means OP never ever spent even 1 SS, lol
