Talk:Fall 2015 Event/@comment-26850872-20151207173504

All right. As of tonight, or rather, 20 hours ago, I'm done with this event altogether. Time to summarize.

Clearance: I'm too lazy to keep attempting for an all-Hard clearance. Second event and all, I figured I probably could since I completed the event clearance by Day 2 but screw it, my goal is to just clear it. Not to have me boast against the RNG on how I have super luck that overpowers all its shenaningans to the point I can just tell it to always display the die number I want. That includes the scope of event clearing on all-Hard while getting exactly all the ships I want per map-clearing runs made.

This event by far is more about farming itself to hell and back than actually clearing it in my books. Every single new post I see almost everyday, including from myself, is about the salt RNG gives on every farming run made. As I've noted on the onset of the event, having Graf Zeppelin as a drop is a bit of a low blow by devs IMO. Not that I'd like the rest of the new shipgirls to replace her "drop-only" status, however. Hagikaze has the design that made me go full-speed ahead to fetch her, same goes with Kashima and her character just adds to that, Arashi's character is pretty interesting IMO and there's a lot of fun to write regarding Battle of Midway between her and the Nagumo Mobile Fleet... so yeah.

So, okay. Fine. Enough negativity.

Personal benchmarks:

1. First event successfully cleared. On event day 2. PT bugs be damned, armor debuffing be damned. A bit disappointed there's no AD Hime in sight for me to challenge her to some hot, steamy and intense gun sex Round 2  (first one was in Summer 2015 E-7) But eh, gotta go with the storyline I guess, so gotta go with the stars for the event. DD Water Demon is actually a pretty interesting design, but didn't captivate me as much as AD Hime.

2. Be careful of what I wish for. On my wishlist prior to this event were two things: Nagato and an Agano-class with 'Yahagi preferred' in the brackets. What happened in this event - Nagato while looking for Graf Zeppelin. And another Nagato while looking for Arashi. Yahagi was the first of the Agano-class that dropped for me. Then the rest of her sisters followed next. Yahagi herself dropped three times, while the rest of her sisters dropped twice. All while looking for Arashi.

3. Figures "You simply haven't ran enough runs" are not applicable to some people. In which this case applies instead: "Unbelievable! RNG truly favors this (kuso) teitoku!?"
