Avoid Grand Summoners and Criware games at all costs or it will cost you hundreds of dollars. Ok, so I've spent about a month playing this game and have spent over $500 Canadian dollars **** par results. But I was one of the lucky ones. So why I'm writing this review is, because I'm just done with this bull !@#$, I'm tired having to pay hundreds of dollars for such little results. I just hate it. You know the expression pay to play or pay to win, well this is pay to try to win or play. Let's Start off by the pricing, to get even 11 basic characters will be around 50 paid crystals for be best results, which is only a %4 chance of a 5 star awaken character. They say they guarantee a 5-star character but they don't say if its awaken or not and, yes, there is a difference. Each paid Crystal will come around $0.50 each. Which rather expensive in the long run so don't be fooled. Ok so what are the bundles like, well for $109.99 you get 200 crystals, 2 limit breakers, 75 awoken stones (which this game hands them out like candy so and need to evolve your character), Alch Stone X2000 (You need 10000 to pull a really good unit) and 2 rainbow gems. Did I mention this bundle is only available 6 times for each person. Now in order to get the best characters in order to beat the game's most difficult challenges which are the blood knights, you need to get through to the blood knights jump-start summoner packs you need to do the other 5 jump starts which there are 4 steps to complete each one. How you complete it? You pay 25 crystals for the first one and the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th time are 50. This means in order to pay for that will come to about $139.99 Canadain in order to get 220 crystals which means you have spent 175 crystals on one jump start. and you have to do this 4 other times just to get access to the best units. Coming to around 875 paid crystals. That's $560 worth of crystals, to get access to the units you need in order to beat any challenges and yes they say as you step each time the results are better and better but not much, for 200% which is only %8. On the final step, they guarantee you get a great unit but there is a meta. Oh yes, there is a meta in this game. So if you want to grantee a certain unit, you have get 30 of these...weird crystal cards that will cost you 500 crystals and assuming your summoning on an event that offers it. Here are the list of units that I know from the top of my head that are the big units you must have. Vox, Earth Fen, Dark Fen (yes they repost the same character with different element change), Thetis, Rimiru, Mako (Which you can't get these 2 units anymore), Berwick (don't get confused for the sword version, yes doubles is a come theme for this series.) Sandstone, Weaver, Mira, Platina, Feena, and Dark Celina. You don't have these units well your @#$% out of luck. Oh, and did I mention they have true weapons for there equipment, don't even get me started on these, it takes 30 rainbow gems to get even 1. you how much it will cost you to get that many? 300 Crystals and assuming your on a summon event that will give you rainbow gems. And for some characters like Mira and Thetis, you need those true weapons. Also the limit breaks on characters and equipment and the enhancements, its just a cost stream of time and money. Ok so I've talked about all the costs lets talk about what they offer for free...Well, they give you a bunch of free crystals around 800 (not paid ones and yes there is a difference.) that are only 1/4th of the chance of getting an awoken character at best. lowest I've seen is 0.2% chance of getting an awoken character. I'm not kidding. They give you one or two awoken characters at the start which are garbage, and one ticket to get you any (but not really) hero you want. As well as one free true weapon (but not really) you want for said character. They offer a few limit breakers to make sure your characters can get to their highest potential but it requires 5 and getting 3 will cost you 69.99 last I check. **** do the math. Geez even when I try to talk about free stuff it still expensive to do so. They do have limited deals for each person, 1 dollar for 50 crystals per person only once. Yeah...Wooh ho. Paying once for only 50 crystals its a dream true. *Cough cough* Not really. But what about the promotional units, I hear you ask, trust me, they ain't even worth talking about they are that worthless. So don't be fooled about the shield heroes' cool-looking appearance. So basically if you want any of the good stuff you are looking about $1k Canadian dollars or your region equivalent. In other words, just go play Azur lane, it's way better and has better prices for more.
