Really depends what you want to get out of Gachapon. Sleeves or PGC? Kerning. WS? NLC CS and bunch of scrolls? Shrine Ski and Maple Leaf? Showa
Yes I'm aware of this and agree, thus I included "in general" in the title to survey which gach and items people found most accessible and/or valuable when putting these factors together along with the ultimate goal of making mesos.
RNG... I once got garbage from NLC and Garbage from kerning, then one day from 70 tickets. Boom 5 white scrolls. RNG...
I usually preferred showa for a while. New source came and I blew a couple hundred tickets between kerning and Shrine. Kerning gave me a pgc worth 3bil. Shrine gave me a ton of random scrolls and itcg stuff. CBD was pretty good, especially for the ice ele wand.
CBD gives me nothing but those stupid flag weapons After 70 tickets I got one ele7 and it was 144matt I've always been fond of Sleepy gachapon. Has lots of cool stuff in it and you don't have to go all the way to showa
Pls. Showa is like 3 more maps than Sleepywood (Assuming you go from Lith/Ellinia > Ant tunnel > town scroll). As long as you have showa milks. I always liked sleepywood gacha too. But now that it doesn't have Taru Totems/ old BVM, I feel like it's not worth as much imo.
Shrine/CBD are my favorite, the safest gach with almost zero percent of getting garbage on a 35+ tickets run, especially shrine. Got 3 CS and TONS of hp washing scrolls there with not much tickets used. Got my totem at CBD on the second ticket. Got a clean racc mask on the next one I have turned into 6 int 5 slots one using scrolls I got from shrine, also made a 30 tma shield thanks to the scrolls from shrine and many more items I have made. These things add up and in the long run, you will outperform even those who got perfect sleeves and PGCs once, but got garbage with the rst of their tickets. Gached in NLC and Kerning as well, with the same amount of tickets I did in shrine. Got ZERO WS and a mere 3 att pgc. The rest was complete GARBAGE. Kerning you either score big with 9-8 att clean pgc/perfect purple sleeve or you get bandanas and garbage scrolls/npc fodder. There is no middle, you win big or you lose it all. NLC is even worse. The best item you can get now is ws which is 310m at best, and this is supposed to be the "jackpot". The rest is garbage. Showa is meh, but still much, much better than Kerning and NLC. At least you can get a good maple leaf for your character, clean ywg/red marker and more nice stuff. It's not bad. There is also the ski jackpot to add some more "spice" to the gach so it's not a bad gach. Much better than NLC for sure. Very underrated gach, but still not something I would blow 1000 tickets on. Didn't try the rest, are they even worth it? I'm thinking of trying henesys or ellinia, but I have a feeling henesys is the same as kerning but with bwg instead of pgc and ellinia just gives you tons of npc fodder mage crap and 60% wand/staff scrolls. Bottom line, If you are lucky with scrolling and you are not too funded/looking for a huge low possibility jackpot to use for yourself (perfecting a sleeve or chaosing a godly cape), gach at shrine or cbd and sometimes showa if you want to diversify. On the long run, you are going to make much more mesos if you know what you are doing. I may be wrong and maybe there are people here who are pulling perfect sleeves/9 att pgc every second run, but I highly doubt so.
I got all garbage when I did CBD. I got the best stuff in Nautilus I think (bvm, good chairs, decent atk knuckle) but now it doesn't give bvm anymore (I think it gives totem instead though) NLC gives better drop rate than shrine (the ws rate is much higher than the chaos one) but the rest of the equips it gives are garbage mostly like melting cheese (the only good items there are stonetooth and ele wand, even the scrolls there are garbage). Shrine gives a lot of scrolls but it's annoying to sell all and makes your inventory full. Kerning always gave me garbage except 2 atk pgcs that nobody buys. Hene and perion gave me garbage mostly too, ellinia gives good mage scrolls (overall int, wand matk etc) but no expensive items. Sleepywood is good if you want the cute moon chair or the maple leaf nose. From showa the best I got were some 60% shield matk scrolls I think
Nautilus actually sounds nice if you are pirate which I'm going to main (corsair). Can you gach your end game gun there? What kind of chairs did you get? I think I'm gonna give it a try. Sounds better than CBD which gives totem now so it's not as bad as it was. In the old source Sleepywood was better than CBD, but not anymore (I think Sleepywood gave BVM?)..You can also get maple leaf in Showa so it makes Sleepywood gacha almost useless now. Ele wands and ST are meh unless they have really, really good stats. You better off with gaching in Kerning this way. Never going to gach in NLC anymore lol I agree that arranging the USE inventory during the shrine gach is annoying, but it's worth it. You can even try your luck and make some really nice items out of these scrolls like INT shields, earrings and overalls. Selling will be much easier with the stores update.
Sleepywood gach gives Nairicain jewels needed for cilbis according to my itcg guide, so it's not entirely useless. Just not as good as it was before.
Nautilus can give godly pirate lvl 100/110 guns/knuckles (and overalls too) but with a low chance (the same like kerning giving godly claws), though even decent stats can be worth since guns/knuckles are pretty rare. The chairs are the lord pirate and the palm tree or something, there is also an untradeable fishing one.
