Discussion Half-Anniversary Forever Summons MegaThread - Post Pulls and Questions

Post image
14 Upvotes

So... What's a 'Forever Summon'?

Well, I'm glad you asked! ~ The Forever Summons is an event that will last from July 17, 2026 0:00 PDT to August 25, 2026 4:59 PDT (ie 8/24 is final pull), in which every day, you will do one summon for the first time you log in.

- PLEASE POST YOUR PULLS IN THIS MEGATHREAD IF YOU WANT TO KNOW IF YOU SHOULD KEEP A UNIT OR HOW GOOD ONE IS.

  • During the entire event duration, you will have the chance to "Keep" one of the units you summon. You only receive the ability to keep one of these units, so it's advised to be very cautious in selecting the unit you keep. More on this later.
  • For every day you summon you will gain 1 crystal. These crystals will be claimed whenever the event ends, whether you claim a unit or the event period expires.
  • Each time you Summon, the Deluxe Gauge increases from 1 to 5 stages. If it is at its 5th state, you can pull again for a random unit of the corresponding element. You can save this Deluxe Gauge for a different day but once used, it will reset back to 0.
  • If you decide you don't want the unit you summoned on a certain day, just press the "Back" button in the bottom left corner and be on with your day. If you change your mind, the unit can still be accessed via the "Summon" button on the bottom of your screen during GUI navigation. Press the banner to be taken back to your unit!
  • Your summon only lasts for a day. Every new day, you'll receive a new unit, and the previous unit will no longer be available.

Below you will find a list of units we recommend taking in Forever Summons. Note that players should prioritize Support units due to them being harder to substitute compared to DPS Units.

Taking Duplicate units is generally not recommended.

Without further ado:

Take On Sight if you do not own:
Kirisame, War Hero Fen, Hart, Mizuki the 12th, Thetis, Emperor of Isliid ⭐, Hazuki

Good to take midway::
Fire Orvell, Summer Cestina, Earth Vultee🛡️, Cestina, Vox*, Rosetta, Joker Selia, Summer Juno, Water Priscilla***, Juno, Liza 🍏, Light Cestina, Miranda🛡️

Last Minute Takes:
Demon Edge Berwick, Charlotte, Summer Leone, Valerie, Summer Liza, Platina*, Dark Riviera, Forte***, Dark Fen**, Simon***, Dark Hart***, Dark Celia, Luahn, Duke

*: Can be taken from Unit of Choice.
**: Only take if you either don't own Fen (Earth) or need him for a nuke setup.
***: Players should take note of their equipment and unit list to determine if they can utilize these nuking units.
🍏: If you own Sublime Supernova Liza, you can skip her if you desire. (She can still be used for some SR stages) 
⭐: If you own Isliid, Human Pinnacle, you can skip him if you desire. (He can still be used for some SR stages)
🛡️: If you already own a good taunt tank (e.g Kirisame and/or Thetis), these are lower in importance and can be skipped if desired.

Note: If you own a majority of a certain priority's units, it may be best to look for other lower priority units to increase your chances of walking away with something useful.

Also, you can roll the same unit more than once. Just because you pull it one day does not eliminate it from the pool.Note: Units in each tier are sorted in elemental attribute following this format where possible: Fire, Earth, Water, Light, Dark. This is by no means representative of any order of importance.

The odds of you getting a specific unit dwindle over time. Consider creating a wishlist and expanding it to a broader range as the Forever Summons progresses. Approximate probabilities of receiving a unit on your wishlist from day 1 made up of:

  • 1 Unit: 17.29%
  • 2 Units: 31.65%
  • 3 Units: 43.57%
  • 4 Units: 53.45%
  • 5 Units: 61.64%
  • 6 Units: 68.42%
  • 7 Units: 74.03%
  • 8 Units: 78.66%
  • 9 Units: 82.49%
  • 10 Units: 85.64%

These odds will decrease every day and will not be updated here (above is just the day 1 odds). These odds do not include deluxe summons. Remember to take the first unit you pull that is on your wishlist, even if it isn't your first choice.

Thanks to Discord for this guide.

**PLEASE POST YOUR PULLS ON THIS MEGATHREAD AND NOT AS INDIVIDUAL POST ON THE SUB**

Solo Leveling Crossover Part 1 Review Credits

Sung Jin-Woo: Starburst

Choi Jong-In: Starburst

Equips: Waffles and maybe Monokhrome

Should You Pull: Waffles

Sung Jin-Woo

Race: Human

Unique passive "Weakest Hunter of All Mankind": Increases own ATK by 50% for every Arts, True Arts or Super Arts activated (MAX 500%). Does not stack with abilities of the same name.

Sung Jin-Woo aah… everyone was hyping for you just to become mid. Sung essentially is a selfish DPS that does not offer anything more aside from DMG. He lacks any source to increase his DMG Output outside of PHY RES Down (stackable), which we have other units capable of providing it and his DMG Boost passive paired with his own unique passive. His artgen is tied to dark units, so most times it’s purely a self sustain for him, and his Super Arts is literally just raw DMG multiplier, which increases in real time the less HP the boss has (doubling at 50% and quadrupling at 25%). No need to say with him being so selfish and offering just DMG, he makes his name of being the least desirable unit of this collab.

Pros:

  • Slightly fast animations
  • DMG grows as you accumulate his ATK and reduces boss HP
  • Good slots

Cons:

  • Another ramping system for increase own DMG
  • Doesn’t offer anything aside from DMG
  • At the end, just another DPS

TW Impression: In a few words: increases his own DMG output. The ATK buff matches with his DMG Boost passive, and having a start up Arts Gauge UP and passive 2 aps let him use his desired Arts more frequently

Choi Jong-In

Race: Human

Unique passive “Ultimate Weapon”: Increase all allies’ Magic DMG by 100%. If Choi Jong-In is the Leader, increase all allies' Magic DMG by 150% instead. Does not stack with abilities of the same name.

Choi Jong-In brings on the table two things that make him a good support for magic teams: By just existing, he gives already to all allies a good amount of MAG DMG buff, if he’s Leader, this increase even further, enabling more options to bring on team instead of in specific a generic MAG DMG Buffer. He is also packed with 100% MAG Equip CT, this translates to all your MAG equips having their CT halved, so for both nuke and sustain scenarios he benefits the whole team. Despite him being a bit more concentrated to fire magic allies, thanks to his passive, MAG Equip CT buff and the fact he is the fastest character of the entire collab, Choi Jong-In is a nice addition to any magic team.

Pros:

  • Halves MAG Equip CT with Super Arts
  • Ultra Fast animations
  • Buffs MAG DMG by just existing, further more if Leader

Cons:

  • Bad slots for support
  • True Arts utility is niche
  • Magic teams still have a long way to compare with physical

TW Impression: Fire RES Down locked behind Human user, we have some alternatives that are either similar in terms of how much RES Down it gives, or it’s literally the same thing but with less restriction. The 1 aps increments with his artgen passive, which is always good, while the DMG buff is the buff of all times.

Should You Pull?

Solo Leveling Pt.1 Unit Banner: Neither unit is particularly meta defining as SJW is “just another dps” and CJI is a niche magic buffer with supportive abilities to an extent. Do your guaranteed.

Solo Leveling Pt.1 Equipment Banner: If you want? None of these equips will make you a true adam and save you from the bullies on the playground. If interested, the equip nuke and harusame copy are decent. Do some pulls if new and are seeking to develop an equip box, else pull at own discretion.

Solo Leveling All Stars Alch Banner: NEVER DO THESE

Whales: This whole banner ultimately depends on your fanaticism for Solo Leveling. Whale at your discretion bro.

Thanks to Discord for guide. See Discord for more info including equip reviews.

Why does Japan rank WHF as SS tier when global ranks it A (I think) shouldn’t it be even lower on Japan since they have even more units that out scale? Is there something we are missing?

Showcase Sanosugoat? | GC4 Area 330

I recently took Okarun out of this team for Sanosuke just for this boss to see clear speed difference. But to do that I had to train him up to very high regalia levels (about an hour + siphoning a bit). It's about the same speed but for the regular encounters he wipes the mini bosses off the face of the earth instantaneously (sub 3 second clears) so I'd say it was worth the slight grind.

The developers can make absurd mistakes at any time, so I don't want to talk about suggestions or ideas for the game. After the vote on the Japanese server where Roy came in first place to receive buffs, I resigned myself to the fact that the game's community, for the most part, doesn't collaborate. I really wanted to talk about this character (a giant icon in the history of video games and also the internet and its memes), but I think it's better not to. I love Touhou.

I tried to get the gsod to start a poll but was turned down. The best chance we have of getting a Simon buff is to vote for it in the gsod suggestions channel and to stop using Simon in game.

To vote for this you’ll just have to be in the grand summoners official discord and go to the suggestions channel.

Simon performance is not that bald... its just too slow tbh.. beside the slow ahh decades animation, his dmg is really decent.
I will put my friend code ingame in the cmt. Tell me your name when you add, I have published 30+ Ai for all Nova & Extreme crest with the most variety of comps with many different type of units and equips.
You can copy the Ai in my profile ingame. However make sure to adjust it to your own unit box as my Ai is only applicable the most for my own unit box.
Good luck and enjoy!

Discussion The Simon situation

29 Upvotes

For context I'm a veteran player, been playing for about 6 years now and have spent quite a lot of money on the game throughout this time because I genuinely love this game. However, I'm really struggling to stay positive in light of this new Simon release.

The new Simon sucks, not useful in any content over other current dps units / nukers, he might even be outperformed by some awoken units tbh.

Visually, he is in my opinion one of the best looking and well designed characters in the entire game, which makes it all the more painful that he is not very good because he will not be used often.

It's such a shame really. This was the first chance for the global devs to really show the fans some appreciation by giving us something that JP doesn't have. We've been waiting all this time and we get a unit that looks cool but is practically useless in any meaningful content.

The reaction I've seen from the community has rightfully been major disappointment, and so far nothing has come of it. It just shows how little the devs care about the global player base. They know the community is severely disappointed, but because they are still making money, they don't bother to listen to any feedback or acknowledge anything. They bait us with the cool visuals and hyping this character for months so people spend money on crystals and make people want to pull for him, just to make the kit trash so we are forced to keep spending on better units in the future.

I get that they're running a business, but it's just getting so tiring at this point with global always getting the short end of the stick. I'm personally not making any purchases going forward unless they make some changes.

So far I've been enjoying the release of the new grand crusade chapter and I'm glad they mentioned in the live stream that the most recent summer unit from JP will release this summer, but the whole Simon thing just sucks so much. It's probably the most disappointed I've ever been playing this game.

If you have any thoughts on the matter let me know, I'm interested to hear more opinions.

I did a damage test on the new Simon and compared him to one of the later awoken dps’s (Mikey), the first ascended dps (DE Berwick), and Jinwoo ONLY USING HIS ART!!! Simon is a sub-berwick dps without his phantom bullet. Getting the boss to under 50% hp is miserable 😭😭😭
