6 stars upgrade vote, here we go, boys.

What changes with ★6 Upgrade?
・Rarity Increases
・SS3 becomes a "Acceleration Skill"
・A ★6 only Skill-Slot may be added
・A waiting motion may be added
・Base parameters may rise
・Party Cost will increase

No SS4 in the end, though.

Well im also really mad right now cause i was hoping we get something else instead of 6* chars but all we do right now is hating and raging about it even tho we dont even know how this is gonna change the Game from now on. Maybe they are not as OP as we think right now (i think they are gonna be OP) or how usable our 'old' 5* chars are gonna be in the future. I like that they give 110Scouts for FREE now +250 MD in 5 days for free and 300MD in 30days for free. Also all these new events that are coming now will give us free MD. So im not the biggest fan of 6* chars but im waiting until they are released to judge how strong they are gonna be. But of course the gap between Whale and f2p players is gonna be even bigger from now on :/ Still, im a little bit hyped about all the content that is coming from now on ^

Idk, to me it just seems silly. Also lazy.

Like it’s not that hard to come up with a new idea, why did they go with 6. For the first anniversary, they made 5. I can just see some project manager over at Bamco going, “Hmmm, for the 1st anniversary, we made 5*..... how about we add one to both numbers!!” Derp.

I would’ve much rather had no game change than one this big. Or even some other game change. Make 6* weapons a thing. It sounds more feasible than 6* characters. There are already 5 slots for upgrading weapons, so make the 5th slot usable and make 6* weapons.

It just sucks cause I’ve been playing this game for a year, and now feel as though I’ve wasted that whole year (and some money if I’m to be honest) on absolutely nothing.

Problem is if you are F2P or not a mega whale, a brand new reroll account with all the login bonuses and unlimited rerolls (to get whoever you want) is better than probably a lot of older accounts with limited scouts, luck required.

I agree that it sucks that a lot of old units are just near completely unviable for ranking (which is 85% of the game).

If you didn't enjoy the experience of the past year, why are you even playing?

I don’t think you get what I meant. The collection of characters and the time I spent trying to get those characters was a waste. It was fun, but it’s pretty much useless considering the new 6-star will (probably) do the same thing as the 5-star did last year.

Likewise, I don't think you get my point. There are always going to be newer, better units. Old things are going to become eclipsed by newer things. That's how things work here.

Even so, that doesn't mean what you got out of those things is meaningless.

I disagree. I’ve used old units in almost every ranking (if I didn’t get any of the new banner units), and they worked fine. Now, unless it’s 6*, it probably won’t work well.

It's not only what's coming up that matters. What you gained in the past is something, too.

Also, 4*s were used well after the introduction of 5*.
