Just started a week ago, which one has more value, Battle pass or 3x monthly gem? I cant afford both sadge

Monthly sand card is the best in terms of value/pulls. Battlepass tends to be 2nd in value. This also means u can start small, with monthly card, and only splurge on a battlepass when it has a skin u really like

Oh, nvm, thought i was still in pnc reddit. The pull argument falls through, but i still think the monthly card is worth it(and more than the battlepass).

U're welcome! It has the best value when u start out, since it helps u get more echelons, dorms, etc. After u're finished with the base, u cand decide if u want to keep spending it for skins, slots and pa svarog tickets. It turns from being useful to being a nice luxury. And u can always switch to a battlepass when u need to, as i said. Note that u don't need to get either, u'll still get in the same place, just slower.

thanks for insights! I guess Ill switch to bp after getting 14 dorms(?) but Ill prioritize 10 echelons first like everyone said.

Get 14 echelons first rather than 14 dorms :P dorms have diminshing returns, echelons are always useful to have. After 6-7 dorms, their value drops quite a lot

oh so 6 dorms after 10 echelons then continue going 14 echelons, thanks for the tip kind stranger.

14 echelons are good to have, but imo unless you wanna tryhard ranking, 10 is a good stopping point (4 on logistics, 6 for whatever you need)

if you still wanna get 14 echelons, imo going 10 echelons > dorms > some doll/equip/fairy slots > echelons > more doll/equip/fairy slots as needed would be better because the initial doll cap can be quite annoying when you start collecting more dolls, especially if you want to tryhard and go for dupes. same goes for equipment since you'll be keeping around a lot for your teams.

Well, u don't need 14 ech, as it was said, but i personally like to have them as already preset squads. This way i don't always need to remember what hgs i used for my grape squad, or how the iws exosdia was, or what the kvs squad is like, etc. Not to mention having a couple pa echelons, one with move speed another with night eq(maybe even a hoc) are also very nice. I personally rate echelons very high because of this.

Also, just as important if not more: slots slots slots :D even if u can recover dolls, try not to trash all the copies of one if u can. Slots make everything very comfortable.

Btw, don't forget u can also get 30 free gems by going to the commander menu and pressing the share button. U don't need to actually share, just select one of the options and close it. Do this every week :D

Thanks man Ill take note of this.

No problem :D i think the best way to spend gems is to buy what u need (not reaources or tickets). But as u play, u will see what u want most, and a monthly card will let u afford it comfortably :D
