new year wishes

1-4 Jan 2022

TLDR: Complete ‘quests’ to get exclusive rewards! Takes estimated about 10,400 gems to complete the quests!


Rewards

The main rewards are pretty decent, and it’s the first time they are giving away a costume for ‘free’ (albeit an old one – Beast King).

There’s 3 packs to choose from and you can only select one.

  • Pack 1: Beast King New Year costume + 40 photo chests +100k gold
  • Pack 2: Class S2 badge + 40 Purple Insignia Exp card + 100k gold
  • Pack 3: Sigil Box V + 25 Emblem supply token + 100k gold

It really depends on what you need as they are all situational. In my personal opinion, the best pack in terms of practicality and use is Pack 3 with the Sigil Box V and Emblem supply tokens – you can’t go wrong with Sharp sigil 5!

However if you need a Class S2 badge to ascend a unit, then you may choose that too. However I don’t recommend as it’s pretty easy to get badges via lightsticks.

In terms of value wise, I feel the BK costume is the most valuable since you’re getting a free costume via gems. Let’s put it this way, you can always get Sigil Box V and Class S2 badge in some way as long as you save up, but not this costume. So for F2Ps, this might be an option to consider. Moreover the photos also do provide a slight buff so that’s also good!


HOW TO PLAY?

  • To get the above pack rewards, you need to get all 4 wishing coins
  • To get the coins, you need to complete quests
  • Each Wishing Quest set gives you ONE coin, so you need to complete all 4 sets over the 4 days to get 4 coins
  • The Wish Points you get determine how much progress you make, and the Packs that you buy with gems count as ONE point per purchase, so buying 2x Ascension Supply Boxes already gives you 2 points. (Do note not confirmed for Day 4 on the Core Power box, whether you get 5 points, but I wouldn’t recommend buying that anyways).
  • You DON’T have to do ALL the quests to get 8/8, do make sure to count the points and plan what you want to do
  • It seems that currently the other gem packs are ‘Closed’ and can’t be bought, so I guess that it will open on their respective day, eg Wishing Quest 2-Omni Supply box will open on Day 2

Of course we want to minimize our diamond spending, so I have planned out a gem-efficient way below under Suggested. I am not accounting for the individual rewards for each quest, so if you want those rewards, please feel free to complete the quests if you want!

SUGGESTED

NEW YEAR PACK

On a side note, there is a New Year’s Pack (2022 gems) which has

  • 2 BT
  • 2 BS
  • 4 Elite tix
  • 2 RND SSR Omni

..and you can buy 3 packs!

TBH it’s not super bang for buck in terms of gem value, but the value here is more on the limit that you can buy monthly. Getting 6 BS is almost like getting 1 more extra month of BS in exchange for gems.

So while it is certainly not cheap, definitely get them if you have spare gems.
