The Gacha
1. Permanent Gacha: There's a few types of permanent gacha. One of them has two 5 stars and a few 4 stars, and you use tickets you earn in the game to do it. The other has one 6 star and I think one 5 star, and it requires specific 6 star tickets for it - however Glorious Invitations work as well, which are the tickets you use for the standard permanent gacha. So this is basically the "special" permanent gacha. I refer to them as the "normal" and the "premium" permanent gacha. Keep in mind, you can't catch up on finishing these gachas with diamonds - only through the tickets you slowly collect - as the 10 roll costs 2888 diamonds and it's just not worth it.2. Limited Gacha: They're always limited to a specific time window, can only be bought with diamonds, have one or two 6 star sets and often two or one 5 star set(s), plus one or two 4 star sets. The value out of the limited gacha is pretty amazing, especially if you're new to the game and you don't have these many types of sets yet. These are usually called events, although you'll be able to differentiate them from actual events by noticing that they always have a gacha banner on the front and center of the event tab once you open it up. These limited gacha come back and go away during a "rerun", which happens once a gacha is old enough. Honestly the wait time is pretty short, people observed it's around a year - but this rule isn't always true. As to be expected, the gacha becomes discounted and offers extra goodies during the first rerun to attract people to it. After the first rerun it loses it's discount perk, and will just rotate between being available and not being available. Oh, but there's no pity system at all here - you're going all in for what? That's just how it is!
3. Wish Boxes: These are kind of a new type of gacha with a single 5 star set and one 4 star set. They're going to run along reruns of limited gachas so old players can continue to spend their cash, of course. You can't catch a break! Each Wish Box has a different run time. The current one in global is 90 days, but some will be 20 days.
Tips:
1.: When it comes to deciding on which permanent gacha you should use tickets on - you should choose one which items you like the most and stick with it, until you at least finish one 6 star set within it.
2.: When rolling on a gacha keep this in mind, the moment you get a dress or a bottom (if the set has top + bottom) of a certain set you get locked into it, and the chances of receiving items from that set become higher. That means that if you have two 5 star sets and you get a dress from set number one, you probably won't get a single item from set number two until you're done with set number one. If you don't have a lot of tickets to spend then and you get locked into a set you don't like, cut your losses and don't bother rolling - unless you like both sets of course and you're ready to roll a lot. This rule only applies to sets within the same rarity, so getting locked into a 5 star set won't cuck you out of getting 6 star set items.
3.: You are guaranteed one 5 star item/SR ally card every 10 rolls in the double 5 star gachas. Likewise, you are guaranteed a 6 star item every 25 rolls in the 6 star gacha along with the 10 roll rule for the for the 5 Star I think, because it's not listed anywhere but I feel like it's true, lmao.
4.: The reason why Bloom gacha can only use Glorious invitations is because it's newer. Beloved and Essence are cross compatible with Glorious Invitations, which means you're able to finish these sooner if you use all the tickets on them. It still doesn't matter that much though, I'm personally putting a lot of tickets into Bloom because I like the items more lol
5.: At the start of every week you can buy three Glorious Invitations in the guild shop. Don't miss out on it!
6.: The rates of rare items don't get increased if you do 10x rolls. In fact, I feel like my luck is better if I do single rolls but this is all pure superstition. Roll in whichever way you prefer.
7.: Reruns of limited gacha will start to happen around the 1 year mark of the game's lifespan, as observed by the older regions. Limited gacha that was a collab (like the Sanrio one) will not have reruns because they'd need to renew their license for the collab. As such, if you really like a gacha and it's a collab - you will only have one chance to complete it.
8.: Personal advice, don't spend diamonds on permanent gacha. You will obtain everything from it eventually, whereas limited gacha is only there for a short time.
