the fairy system is probably the most p2w thing in this game right now, you can't buy theiah's orbs with in game currency, only premium currency and they are RARELY on sale. continuous care should not have been added to the fairy, that was a HUGE cashgrab move

Took me one and half month to get a T4 fairy with two t5 skills (Feathery V and Continuous V). Got a brilliant one, sprouted and became a Radiant. I've used 6... yeah, only 6 Theias's from past events to get it. Luck I guess. Don't want to do it again.

I hope they make it easier since it's a big pain to get a good fairy with good skills. They could do a fairy market just like horse market, showing their skills, tiers, etc. I don't want anyone to suffer like I did.

Theiah's orbs entirely players initiative, they wasn't intended to exist, the correct way of getting fairy is to get new fairy if yours don't end up how you want it.

Noone force you to pay, just do it the way its was designed, like  how players got it when fairies was introduced. With 2017 account reg date you pretty much know this already.

My friend, it's still a bad system, be it now or when it was introduced in Febuary 2018. This is the feedback section, not the copium section.

Yes the system is bad, but OP don't complain about it, OP complain about players made Theiah orb's.  PA  gave out  enough orb's to get decent fairy. Just like i did, not the "BIS" fairy, decent enought with only IV skills and i still have 27 free orb's left.

You're not wrong, but what are you implying? It reads like you are saying that because there is an arguably worse system or design choice in place, this one is "okay" or "tolerable."

 Honestly, I've played the game on and off with the last two years have been daily. Never gotten free orbs. These events seem too infrequent. The only time I've seen them given is as a new player only. I also don't understand your arguement, that 'players made the orbs;' players didn't code the orbs into the game, the developers did. Even then, this still doesn't change that the orbs are a bit too rare when it comes to acquiring them for free and the system in general is just awful.

Well, that's the entire commercial idea behind it : you're not forced, it is simply heavily suggested. So devs can hide behind this idea, and even players will say that "it's fine".

As long as it relies on gambling mechanics with real money (directly or not), it is not fine to have it in a uncontrolled video game, even if there's nothing "forced". Orbs, mount skill change coupons, crons... This belongs to casino, with control.

If devs really wanted us to get a fairy "the way it was designed", they would allow us to have a second one to work on it in the long run, while we use the first one (only one active at a time, obviously).

But no, they only suggest us a cash shop solution, for sure... XD

This is gonna sound pretty callous, but I was a life skiller since forever, and I've always had fairies. I've had multiple wings. I still got 3 or 4 (forgot?) My problem is the way rerolling works. My fairy is DEF NOT OP, but it's got mediocre versions of the skills I want. The thing is, if I roll a skill, I could lose it forever and get like... underwater breathing. I think even if they have it less likely, you should be able to roll w/ orbs for just the skill you have. I don't buy stuff to enhance my gameplay (cept weight and hedgehog :D) but it's not even worth giving up the orbs you have to try to reroll.

One of these days, I'm gonna have to reroll new wings and roll starting out (when it only has 1 skill or 2.) It's not like you can't get some orbs, but when you actually math out how many orbs it would take to get your fairy 'right,' indeed, it is a joke. There are skills I really want, like the highest weight one, but all the skills I have are good, and it'd be a 1 step backwards for hope of forward (I already rerolled fairy from scratch once to get this one, better in some areas worse in others...)

The good thing is you don't NEED fairy. If you really are about that life, just reroll til you get the best pot thing.

They will continue to give you orbs, but never forget that you can mess up your fairy just as easily as you can get a good skill. So it's A TRAP.

Edit: I have CC and it's fun, but I don't use it much. I'd take the L on that to get my other skills right.

The only thing I don't think PA will give you is WEIGHT or a CAMP.

Hedgehog is also more P2W than fairies
