No end of the month bonuses :(

Discussion

Well today was the day we were expecting to receive the end of the month bonuses that include 4.5 star staffs and mythril and major growth eggs the JP version has enjoyed every month since reaching this point in the cycle. Instead we got orb conversion and ability shattering. My guess is DeNA tried to cover up not getting the extra bonus card with the orb feature.

I guess it is another feature us second class global citizens will go without along with rolling gatcha and collab events.

I really would have liked those 4.5 star items.

Gee, could you possibly be more over-dramatic?

We got orb conversion/ability shattering way earlier than JP did relatively. We get so many nice things earlier. I just wholeheartedly disagree with this.

Uhh there are 10 rewards on the card and 31 days in January. 10 days before the 31st is the 21st (today). We got conversion/shattering on this day instead of one week after the UI update like the JP client.

Feel free to drink the DeNA koolaid, but these type of things makes me regret making a global account instead of a JP account and every day that passes the difference grows wider and wider.

JP didn't even have the UI update compared to where we are in global, so your statement above is inaccurate. Also, just because it isn't here today doesn't mean anything, an end of month celebration can start at the end and go into the next month.

In either case, just calm down and wait.

While we probably won't get it, you did your math wrong there.

If there are 10 rewards, and we get the last reward ON the 31st, then the rewards would begin on the 22nd, not the 21st.

22 - 1st Reward

23 - 2nd

24 - 3rd

25 - 4th

26 - 5th

27 - 6th

28 - 7th

29 - 8th

30 - 9th

31 - 10th

January was not a 30 days month? I get confused frequently

30 days have September, April, June and November.

A rhyme I remember from grade school to know which months have 30 days.

It's like no matter how much cool stuff we get (and early too) there's always someone moaning about something else. Personally, I think you should create a "NO RAGRETS" post and play the JP game exclusively so there's less whining on the Global side.

Then go make a JP Account?

I can't say that I'm not a little jealous of JP - I get it, we probably all want to have the same rewards, events, mc's, etc.. as a the JP version, but Global is repeatedly treated differently. Better in some ways (earlier UI updates, extra Lucky Draws) and worse in most others, but expecting them to match JP 1-for-1 and getting repeatedly disappointed doesn't make sense to me.

Y'know, the old addage of "Doing the same exact thing and expecting different results is the definition of insanity"?

I realize DeNA is the one "doing" the action here, but you can modify the one aspect you do still have control over - your expectations.

The ones with core 4.5* gear have always launched from the 26th to the 29th of a month.

Today is only the 21st.

deepdrillOP•

You are correct that they start on the 26th; however, we should have started getting them beginning on December 26, 2015.

If they don't start on Tuesday it is very likely we'll be getting nothing.

we had other login stuff and events going on last month

deepdrillOP•

Yeah but the JP version always has something going on and yet those bonuses continued, steadfast.

They also get all those other bonuses and more and it doesn't seem to stop them from getting even more.

There was no JP end of month login in September due to the Anniversary campaign, nor was there one in December due to the New Year's campaign.

Quite frankly, you have no idea what you've been talking about in this whole topic. In the future, I would suggest you do some actual research before making a whining thread, or else you'll look like an incompetent whiner again.

False. Japan didn't get a core relic last month, either.

Actually, they didn't start in December because there was another log-in reward. The same thing happened in JP where they didn't have an end of month celebration in December.

Only once has Japan gotten the end of month login on the 26th; the end of July one came as late as the 29th, and that is quite possible the one we'll get this month.

We never get those anyway. We still have our 5 mythril winter bonus on 1/23 and another 5 mythril on 1/30.

JP got that too. And we can't say 'never' when it's just getting to the point they were added. Actually it should have been last month but we hoped it was just delayed due to the busy holiday season.

Technically we had one last month in the form of the XIII gun and a few other Christmas items.

When was the last time we get those end of month login bonuses?

what part of "it's just getting to the point they were added" did you not understand?

I think you don't understand Global version is not getting the same thing as JP version.
