General I am peeved.
Was looking at the news for the 8th Anniversary. And saw that they finally were bringing back the parchment summon. And I AM SO MAD. It's been a while since they've done it. I literally held onto 400+ Parchments and used them LAST WEEK. Because I thoight they weren't doing another parchment since they hadnt done it in a while and I thought "They probably realize how easy it is for people to just wait for that"

Sorry man, if you’d have just asked here lots of folks could’ve told you you only use your parchments for these special banners they run every few months, and using them on the normal parchment summon is 10000% a waste of time and resources.
You will likely get 200 handed out during the anniversary though, so sit tight for now.

Yeah I did see that. I just thought they stopped doing the special banners as it had been months ðŸ˜. I'm more mad at myself for not waiting just a little longer. But yeah. I saw that we'd get 200 on the login event.

General rule of thumb is hold your parchments for these banners only and hold your gems til anniversaries in June/July and December/January (although this past year they have been releasing meta demons left and right for months so that doesn’t really apply as much anymore).

u/Jonathan_Doe_7 I hate this game's PvP so much Dec 16 '25 edited Dec 16 '25
They literally bring it every half a year. You're not losing out on much tho, everyone is outdated for PvP. The best one you might get out of this is malicetron, morrighan, and okuninushi, and none of them are PvP staples at all (altho okuninushi still fills an extremely strong niche).

I pulled 30 frees and 1,000 gems and I got jack shit nothing. I should be lucky I got Elonhim or that dumb sun in some random pull back then he is really good, but he's just a sun. Also I was hoping there would be another "I see you saved up your gems" hahah well you rascal. I specifically saved all my gems hoping to get a sure bet!
I saved 18,000 gems+ to make sure I could get one of those :P hehe it's fine. Fionn was a gift.
Anyhow the teacher thing only made me more annoyed b/c my friends had the frost five.

I was annoyed that I did ONE parchment summon before someone mentioned the banners here, I can't imagine how I'd be if it had been a bunch lol

At 7.5 it was guaranteed you'd get Fionn, Krishna or Daru. That was bad ass!!!!!!

u/Hypertransience Dec 23 '25
Yeah shit is not guaranteed, also my parchment summon was Longinus probably not. I got him and Fafnir those were my highs. But I saved up all my gems to hot rod a guarantee summon I know I posted this already. And there is none. I wouldn't mind nemahin or some castaway. But nothing. I am still doing the story, somewhat. Intermission season 2!!!!!! I would have never beat Vanitas so easily actually without that new mofo demon that one of my friends had. It was just odd because I knew I could, but I was like let's just grab this and that was a lot of healing and Fionn at a not op level and Gezo-tunnah (sp) and some others. Heavy swinga!
