Well done! You haven't done the New year's challenge yet, have you? I can't find all the chests in the second stage.

[MidoriYasha 1]

Are the Birth by Sleep banners worth the jewels?

I'VE ONLY FOUND 2?!?!?!  gonna try again and do some screenshots of what I can find and share them here!

[loamrangercosplay 29]

These are the ones I've found so far.

[hawk222 152]

Well, one year of salt ends and another begins.

 

So, those boards... They look good, but that price tag looks pretty bad. I'm not sure on whether anyone should go for those just yet.

The new tier 9 medals are powerful, but we kind of got shafted compared to JP. Don't get me wrong, the fact that the banners are falling price and the lack of a VIP mercy banner are both great things, but this means there's no mercy whatsoever for these medals. Combine that with the returning "collect these medals to get this medal" schtick and you end up spending potentially double what you would've if there had been a VIP mercy. So it's like: nice gesture, but you're still screwing us over.

Also, something else to point out about these medals: SN Terra, SN Aqua, and SN Ven will always use 2 gauges. This means that even if you have an SP1 skill on them, they will still use 3 gauges. So be careful when figuring out your setups.

As for the raid week event... The good news is that it seems to be available all the time and not just for 4 select hours during the day. The bad news is that they probably haven't changed the number of coins you receive or the lux output, so more of the same nonsense as last time...

The 4th chest is in the fountain area where you find the target enemy. It's hidden behind the corner of a building at the bottom of the map, just to the left of the target enemy. You might have to tap the scenery for a bit to find it, but it's there.

That's weird... I found those three too and the mission never completed. Then I just did it again now and it registered. What the heck?

[MidoriYasha 1]

So, is it better ti try the BBS banners now or wait for an eventual mercy pull version of them?

Maybe this quest is just wonky?  Or since the final chest really close to the boss, maybe you opened it without realizing? Or the "open" animation didn't trigger for some reason

I'd say go for it if ya got Js to spare, but if your really low on Js then ya might as well just wait for a possible mercy pull. I don't doubt they'll bring out a mercy pull or some other chance to gain these medals.

I keep getting pummeled in PVP.

[hawk222 152]

PVP has become a chore ever since people started stocking their setups with Kairis, Xions, and Supernova medals.

No kidding!  I detest PVP, they should at least make all those metals easier to get.

True, it's more of a chore though.
