Pilots!

Today we've got another edition of Should You Pull, brought to you by AetherRose on our discord server at https://discord.gg/JTsv8gX. Check out my assessment of this week's banner below!

Wowee! Unfortunately, I haven’t had the time to dive into the extended side content for Iron Blooded Orphans, but I’m pretty pumped to now after seeing gunpla like Astaroth! I’m an aesthetic type and this really speaks to me, especially since it’s not perfectly synergistic and really takes advantage of--anyways. I’m looking forward to this banner! I’ve already been spoiled that there’s a hissatsu shot attack, and I heard there’s competition for Mika, so let’s get right into it!

Last week we got 1,380 Haro Chips, and here’s how:

150 - Login Bonus

350 - Daily Achievements

100 - Event Login

200 - Christmas Login Bonus

210 - Mission Completion

170 - Arena Participation

200 - Build Divers Re:Rise Celebration

Let’s set up some ground rules so you know exactly what to expect and how you should be treating this!

This is entirely my opinion, but I will do my best to justify my opinion and explain to you why I feel a certain way. If at all possible, I’ll use real numbers as well and present an objective outlook before my opinion.

Do not pull on the banner hoping for a single Part. It’s 0.2% for a single Part, which is 50x 10-pulls or 500 pulls. In terms of real money, that’s 5,400 USD.

SS is considered meta defining, S is meta, A is great, B is average, C is below average, D is considered well below average, and F is awful. Parts are compared to all other Parts as a whole and on how well they synergize with other Parts. This means a 4* and a 3* would be compared to everything as low as a 1* to as high as other 4*s.

There are some notations which aren’t immediately obvious:

An EX Skill with D/B at 21/6 CD means it has a D in Piercing, B in Power, a 21 second cooldown, and it’s available for use 6 seconds after the match starts.

All stats, letters, and numbers are at Max Value.

With all of that out of the way, let’s get right into the new banner and what we’re looking at this week!

This week is a normal banner, which means it will be going to Standard Gunpla Parts Capsule 2 when the week is up.

Banner Grade: C+

Summary: This banner has a 0.9% (2.7%) chance of drawing something above average, and a 0.2% (0.68%) chance of drawing something of great value or higher.

This banner was a doozy. With so many Parts, AND I DO MEAN SO MANY, I honestly expected a lot more of them to be awful. The percentage of pulling a decent Part is relatively high, however, but these Parts are only slightly above average and do what other, more common Parts, already do.

I would skip. EDIT: The rest was removed, as well as the banner odds of pulling favorable Parts changed because I misread an EX Skill and rated a Part incorrectly. I'm very sorry for those that pulled based on this rating.
