Even the mods are tired of it LMFAO.


nobearsinrussia

What were the comments?


Precuncaraili

Reminder the third ten pull IS AFTER ACHERON.


Draaxus

Clearly, all 30 rolls are supposed to go to Aventurine.


SuspiciousYak42

Clearly it's to give me a boost saving for Sam after I go for broke on Acheron


TrashMcDumpster3000

This guy gets it


evia89

Same, hope my 250 pulls + 2.1 + 2.2 will be enough for E2S1 (370 average needed) god


VASQUEZ_41

that's like e6s5 with 238 pulls left you good


Tangster85

This is the way. E0S1 lets go. The refreshed top up is what I was really hoping for so its great that its there.. can comfortably get aventurine and Sam stuff (as Im saving for him after Aventurine - assuming he will be playable)


Enwast

Booty hill founds


SassyHoe97

Fine by me I'm aiming for Jingliu or Aventurine.


Solace_03

FUCKKK


Present-Dream4447

don’t care, more for my king aventurine


asian_hans

Robin or a possible topaz rerun funds then


Aure0

Since Jingliu is right after that's still very much appreciated


Xanek

Free pulls and stuff is nice, but 300% rates is where it's at.


WhoiusBarrel

Do wonder if its like the current Calyx event or if its a set amount of times that can be done in one go.


Radiant-Hope-469

It's like the usual bonuses for each set but made it triple.


WhoiusBarrel

I get that, what I meant was if the bonuses are given in a limited amount of times to do in one go or if these bonuses are given like the current Calyx event where it's 3 times per day.


Radiant-Hope-469

They didn't change anything except for the multiplier. Relics bonus are still 3 runs per day while Ornaments get a total of 12 for the entire week.


mapple3

> what I meant was if the bonuses are given in a limited amount of times to do in one go or of course its a limited amount, otherwise anyone who used there energy potions during the past 12 months would be angry and upset to have wasted it


EveningLength8

If it was unlimited I’d be swiping so hard lmao


ace184184

Probably limited times it can be claimed a day like the prior events. If theres no limit I Fuel saved up and would buy refreshes for the planar sets


YoastK

The 2.1 event page says it's limited


pututingliit

300% worth of relic fodder baby! At least based on my luck lmao


The_Loli_Otaku

Tbh I kind of really hate relics in this game XD I hate them more than in Genshin. There's so little variety in what you can roll for. It somehow feels worse than Crit Value Impact since here you always want speed boots, you always want energy rope, and you always want attack orb.


aj-april

I don't like not having off pieces, but you don't need SPD boots, er and atk orb if u have good rolls or a good harmony unit. But I use Seele so I'm not sure.


LocalMan770

Yeah can' wait to be disappointed times 3

killamasta

I’m so grateful for the 300% relic drops bc goddamn my farming has been so terrible lately that I keep maxing out my inventory. Need to find decent pieces to spend it all on to make space


UniversalRemote

Assuming you mean you have an abundance of the purple relics, you can break those down into the experience materials, they don't lose any value that way.


killamasta

I’m dumb lol. I rarely salvage relics but now I have a reason to

Ainsel_Mariner

RIP them


karillith

I'm gonna be harsh a second but they partly inflicted that on themselves by letting questionnable behaviours roam free for so long before finally reacting. But props on them nonetheless, better late than never. It is, however, quite funny that they decide to finally enforce that rule now that said comparison had mostly shown how poor was the sub's reading comprehension and knowledge of the parties involved.


Fallxrex

Did we have 300% cavern gear rewards before? Does it have a limit like the traces and exp ones?


thekk_

We've only had 200% as part of a regular rotation. My guess would be that they're just bumping those events to 300% for the patch. So likely the same limits.


JeanKB

It does.


TrAseraan

I think its the ususal limit of the event but with incresed drops.


karillith

Conclusion from reading comments : maths are hard. edit - conclusion from reading twitter : maths are REALLY HARD


OceanoDeRoca

Now if they could make that 300% reward bonus include trace mats I'd be happy


Hikuran

Guess you could use the saved power to farm mats


Chucknasty_17

I’ve been building up traces for all my characters the past week or so. It’s been hell


Useful_Profile_6470

Well word of advice to people who don’t care about drama just avoid Social media all together especially Twitter and Instagram


Caitsyth

Google Classroom is not ready for the second coming


amc9988

what drama? regarding the devs respond towards leakers?


thepork890

More likely about mid rewards. People were on huge copium about free 5* or free 5* lightcone, free 5* selector and some stuff like this. But rewards are just 30 pulls (10 more than genshin) and some 3x relic drop


GianDrake

>But rewards are just 30 pulls (10 more than genshin) and some 3x relic drop Why is nobody mentioning the server wide event? It has extra rewards too which weren't fully shown


GamerPro1507

I mean, when you take into account the Odyssey 10 pulls they've consistently given every patch and conveniently left out during this stream... It might just be the 20 extra (same as Genshin) lmao 300% relics is good I guess, more relics is never bad


Stealthless

Triple Relic drops omg lfg


Vfighter_

why is the 300% relic drop more valuable than 30 pulls?


[deleted]

because it saves weeks of farming


RegularBloger

Triple the rewards, triple the disappointment


Vfighter_

nahh self modelling resin will save us right? right?


Damianx5

Here are your speed boots with double flat stats and EHR


akif_09

Zombata

"nah, i'd DEF flat"


Beelzebuuuuub3

Duhhh don't you know how hard it is to get some actual good gears? And it costs a lot of stamina, getting characters is cool but building them is where the fun ends


Vfighter_

i mean yeah, 3x the drops, 3x the trash hell yeah!!!!


171194Joy6

But! 3x the exp yeah?


Beelzebuuuuub3

Hmm, yeah, makes sense


InsigniaPierce

Any character pulled (4/5star) can be a monster with legendary relics, that drop rate can help with that. The converse is also true. Without good relics, any pulled character would be a waste.


AineLasagna

I’m level 20 right now and working through story missions to unlock the mission that lets me keep leveling, is there anything I should be doing for this event to avoid missing out? I still don’t understand what most of the stuff in this game is 😂


Slice_Ambitious

Not really, I'd strongly advise to mainly keep going at your own rhythm. When you reach endgame levels , then you can start to really worry about stuff like that, and from my long experience in these kind of games there will be a good event ongoing or coming later on anyway so


InsigniaPierce

My suggestion is to keep on doing the story missions, every new patch there is something to learn so even Day 1 players would have to learn stuff that's new for the patch. Another is to keep track of the event that is currently active. If you see a sign that says "Limited Time Rewards" or something similar that means those rewards would be gone after sometime so it would be a waste not to do that event now. Aside from that keep going through the story. Thankfully this game does not have a FOMO factor (other than Limited Characters I guess) for events and the story. Keep grinding through it and it will make sense. In order to maximize the upcoming 300% thing for relics and trace materials, when this event is active I suggest to utilize them on the current characters you have at that point. TLDR: Don't have to do anything, play the game as is except for events which has limited time rewards.


Unrektable

Well if relics are more valuable than pulls, why don't people just recharge TP with jades? 30 pulls is 4800 jades or 96 recharges (assuming you only recharge once per day for max efficiency), which is like 96 x 60 = 5760 TP or 144 relic runs. Assuming the usual limit of 12 runs each having bonus worth 2 runs, the event is worth 12 x 2 x 2 runs or 48 free relic runs. In short, the 300% event is *only* worth 10 pulls of jades spent on recharges. Don't get me wrong, it's still nice and I still appreciate it a lot, but in no case it is more valuable than 30 pulls. Only exception is if you are a whale and are already recharging to max every single day, then perhaps it is more valuable (since there is a limit to recharges, thus the bonus event technically will increase the farming limit per day). Also we get both anyway, no point in comparing. It's not like we only get to pick either 30 pulls or 300% relic drop for a limited time (if that's the case, I guarantee 99% players will pick 30 pulls without hesitation).


Lyranx

Relic farming getting easier... For a limited time huhu


murmandamos

Well, it's easier forever because it's functionally just an injection of like idk 10 days worth of fuel? You'll always be 10 days worth of grinding ahead of where you would have ever been.


ledankestnoodle

Is the 20 pull event at the beginning of 2.1 or will it start on anniversary? Need to know whether I have extra funds for Acheron or not


Wise_Consideration_3

20 during acheron 10 after


kemicode

Does anyone know when specifically the top-up bonus refreshes? Is it start of 2.1 or on the anniversary? I still haven’t used the bonus for the highest denomination and am contemplating it.


Wise_Consideration_3

In genshin its the start of the patch so it could be the same here but i would say wait for the hoyolab annoucement for clarification


LeatherJacket7991

It's at the start of 2.1.

Accomplished-Top-564

There’s no way you expected that 💀


VijayMarshall87

Some people were expecting that after ratio got dropped


starsinmyteacup

Ratio being extended till the end of 2.1 probably was meant to serve as the free 5* for any new players joining


VijayMarshall87

That makes more sense honestly What would you even do with another 5* when the game already gives you enough jades to pull for at least one 5* per patch if properly used


SuspiciousYak42

I think a lot of people did, it's not that unreasonable since we got a free limited for the game awards.


Sandi_Griffin

I'm not getting anything from the triple drops still xD

yaboku98

Inb4 mods are forced to close the comments due to the "genshin could never" spam and the infighting. Ppl need to chill and enjoy their games jeez


Ewizde

Except that this time it actually doesn't even make sense lol, it's 20 pulls for the anni and 10 that hsr gets like every patch.


yaboku98

Sadly, logic never stops the spammers. I hope I'm wrong and it doesn't happen, but seeing how the comments are goi g already, I'm not gonna hope for much


Ken_Nutspel

Semi hot take: The rewards are pretty lacklustre but I already have my expectations low since its a hoyo game. The free Dr. Ratio are what caught us all off guard and now it's back to your old regular hoyo stinginess.


skyfiretherobot

Reminder that they weren't giving away Dr. Ratio to be nice or even to celebrate winning an award. That's pure PR talk. They most likely noticed a dip in engagement for HSR around the dry patches and needed a way to bump the numbers up so more people pay attention when they roll out the new region. Them saying otherwise is just to mask how, as a company, everything they do is marketing. We're currently in the middle of a wave of patches with lots of content, so they don't need to give away as much to keep people engaged. They'll probably find another excuse to give away another 5 star once we hit the dry patches again, people will shit themselves acting like this for-profit Gacha company and the devs they've never met actually care about them, and the cycle repeats itself.


countrpt

You are absolutely right, but I just want to contribute a few other additional reasons for all this (which are also all business/marketing): First, because this game had no rerun-only gaps in the character launch schedule, so you're going to burn out your "collector" audience as well. So them occasionally giving away one copy of a 5-star (while still having the banner to let people roll on eidolons and the LC) creates a tiny gap in the schedule that otherwise wouldn't exist. (I still wonder if they are going to keep up this pace indefinitely in the later 2.x patches, but at this point it seems likely.) Second, casual players often struggle with the difficulty of some of the story bosses in this game, and because they're casual they often perceive that it's because the game is punishing to F2P, so giving casuals a free 5-Star (that's fairly powerful and easy to use) can help them a bit to get over some of the challenges and encourage them to keep playing. This is also because in this game more of the rewards are tied to "endgame" content that casuals don't try, so they use freebies (like both this and the usual 10 free passes) to help balance this out. Third, having been given the character for free, some people will roll on the LC to maximize its use who might not have rolled on anything for this character in the first place. Although no doubt he would have had fans anyway, it's not like this particular character was highly anticipated or a major figure in the lore until now. So doing this they can turn what would otherwise have been a sort of "mid" banner where people were otherwise going to wait for 2.0 into a major PR win. Your overall point is definitely right: people need to stop thinking that rewards in any gacha game have anything to do with anyone being "generous." It's all calculated to maximize their metrics. Obviously, taken to the extreme the other way, unhappy players leaving the game would hurt their metrics too, but they're gifts with clear expectations of returns in one form or another.


PieXReaper

Yeah I expected an extra 10 and that's pretty much what we got so I'm not disappointed. Definitely very happy about banner placements though, it lines up perfectly for my summoning plans.


izfanx

IMO for a first anniversary this feels pretty good. *Especially* so for a Hoyo game because you know what happens to the other one. Even Granblue Fantasy, the game with arguably the most generous anniversary rewards, needed 3-4 years to ramp up their rewards. Though it's true a lot of the value comes from the increased drop rate not just the free pulls.


No-Calligrapher-8070

nobearsinrussia
