Wow. I should save up my love gems to do a bulk pull like this. One at a time just seems to posh now.

Never ever solo scout when using love gems. You always get a bonus card for scouting in bulk so 50 gems gets you 11 cards instead of 10. And between events you are guaranteed at least 1 SR with the 10+1 scout. Turning a 9% chance into a 100% chance is pretty good.

CGSS: I don't think the iOS version is out yet

The iOS version is available here (or search for 'starlight stage' in Japan iTunes). You do need a Japanese iTunes account but there's plenty of tutorials on the internet for that.

In addition to the event running in SIF, there also seems to be something special going on with scouting tomorrow. The text says something to the effect of an SR member or above being guaranteed every time you do an 11 pack.

However, it also says only specific members are available during this period but when I looked at the list it seemed to be the same world-wide list you always scout from, so...

I think they're finally applying the same 10+1 pull promo that happens outside of events to the limited scouting boxes that are open during events.

Am I wrong in thinking that there'll eventually be blue scouting ticket options for the limited scouting during events? I had it in my mind that this was in the JP version, but now that I can't find any info on it anywhere I'm not sure why I'm holding on to 15 of them.

Yeah, it cycles around. Sometimes by year, sometimes my color, sometimes by subgroup, sometimes by when the cards were released. Maybe others.

Make certain to generate and save your transfer code. Other -> Settings -> Issue Passcode, then, once you have your new device, Enter. If you're switching from Android to Apple (or vice-versa, for that matter) you can't have any love gems on your account, so scout them away first (any <5 extra can be used to increase the number of idols you can have). I think you can have them sitting in your inbox, though?

You can issue the code now and it's good for your account for a year, so really, :siren: if the thought of losing your account fills you with dread, make certain to get your transfer code and write it down. :siren:

「この一撃にかけるっ!」

Been playing LLSIP since the US version came out. I'm super jealous of your good draws. The times that I've gone all in with 50 gems have netted me a couple of SRs but mostly just Rares that I already had.

I play on my Nexus 4 so its just two thumbs for me. I tried using multiple fingers but it doesn't flow quite as well. I'm always amazed at the people with tens of thousands of points during the events.

I'm going to put a little table in the OP of CG:SS/LLSIF (EN) user IDs for folks who want to populate their friendslists with people they marginally know.

Moldy Taxes, I think your LLSIF ID was malformed at 10 digits instead of 9; could I request a repost of that?

Also apparently the new SSR is a Miku so I might as well finally do my premium 10-draw.

In the CGSS tutorial, I vaguely remember something about a different kind of Star Lesson where you can grind up the lower rarities of a character and buff your SRs with a Rare and a Rare+. Is that a thing, or was I misreading/not paying enough attention?

Polsy

You can use Rares and above (and veteran trainers) to (possibly) improve the level of a character's special skill. This just happens on the regular lesson screen.

That is too many Jougasakis. I'm pretty happy with the roll overall though, especially getting two SRs who heal. Also the Cutest Idol.

I've done two 10 card draws so far which has given me a total of 3 SRs...

I doubt anyone here would object to letting your own OP include the SIF IDs from the other thread. Unless iDevice versions of the games can't friend Android versions and vice versa? I haven't confirmed

I'd care more about not pulling an SSR in two 10-pulls if I knew who the characters were. Well, I know Anzu, but I don't know if that makes me want her or to avoid her.

Does anyone know what you're supposed to do with doubles of an SR? It seems like a waste to throw her into a star lesson, but I'm not sure what else to do.

EDIT: just to clarify, this is Starlight Stage, not Love Live

I Star Lessoned my double, because I think there's literally no other use for her.

You can simultaneously field a + idol and her non-+ self (though it picks a random different character model) if you think the special effect is worth it. At least, I think so, it works for Normal and Normal+ and the text it pops up seems to say both special effects apply.

Ahhhh, that's too bad. I guess since you're always swimming in normals and getting them to 5 stars is so easy, it feels like a weirdly trivial way to use SRs to me.

I got that text when I had them both in the same unit, but I didn't read the part about their effects very closely. It seems to apply to SRs as well, though.

I guess I'll probably hold on to her for a while, then, since I still have plenty of space and the extra star level doesn't seem like that big a deal.
