Issue #1: The following event rewards are completely locked behind a paywall:
- Tomoe's Crystal (SSR to UR Ascension item for Tomoe)
- UR Artifact: Tomoe's Katana (fellow attuned artifact)
- UR Artifact: Mio's Iron Fan (fellow attuned artifact)
- UR Artifact: Shiki's Crown (fellow attuned artifact)
These items are locked in the top two levels of the Demiplane Voucher Shop and are directly tied to gacha draws in the Demiplane Supply Station. The second to last shop level requires 1000 Demiplane Vouchers just to unlock the ability to purchase the fellow attuned artifacts. Without spending, the maximum number of Demiplane Vouchers that can be acquired is 250. Since any unused Demiplane Gift Cards (event gacha tickets) covert into crystals at the end of each event appearance, it is impossible to ever acquire these awards without spending.
Issue #2: Low draw rate for SSR Fellows
While low draw rates are not unique to this event, there are a few additional confounding factors that make Moonlit Chill Work especially unfriendly to free to play players:
- The guaranteed SSR draw pity counter resets at each appearance of the event.
- The Otherworld Bond pity counter resets at each appearance of the event.
- Demiplane Gift Cards (event gacha tickets) expire and are converted into crystals at the end of each appearance of the event.
Issue #3: Event crystal packs can only be purchased once each appearance of the event.
Crystal pack event bundle purchase limits do not reset during the course of the event so they can only be purchased once. The price of the top 3 packs is fairly high (1988 crystals).
Issue #4: Event changes in the most recent iteration of the event resulted in the reduction of freely available Demiplane Gift Cards from 35 to 25.
As a result, it is no longer possible to acquire the Demiplane Gift Box (contains choice of either SR Fellow: Emma or 5 Demiplane Gift Cards) without spending.
Cost Analysis: Acquiring Tomoe's 5 star Justice in the Night Costume
Acquiring Tomoe's Justice in the Night costume in one event appearance requires a total of at least 450k points. Points are acquired by delivering goods in Emma's Trade Post. Due to the fact that there are three rarities of goods / orders and the exact number acquired each day is random, this cannot be definitively estimated to exact precision. However, each pairing of Order Ticket and Goods Ticket will yield approximately 1k points.
Each day a free run of the "Get Goods" and "Get Orders" mini games can be attempted. In addition, one Order Ticket and one Goods Ticket is available via each Daily Task list. Over the course of the event this will account for approximately 24k of the 450k points.
It is possible to acquire another 6 Order Tickets and 6 Goods Tickets with crystals in the Event Bundles shop. This will set you back 188 + 988 + 1988 = 3164 crystals for each ticket type or a total of 6328 crystals. That brings the total from 24k + 6k = 30k of the required 450k points. So the remaining 420k points must be from tickets purchased in the cash shop.
Since the lower priced cash shop ticket packs yield more tickets per dollar, the most cost effective method of p2w is to spread the purchases out over the course of the entire event. To determine exactly which packs need to be purchased, calculate the daily p2w point total required. 420k / 12 days = 35k points per day.
The 99 cent pack yields 2 of each ticket type, the $4.99 pack yields 8 of each ticket type, and the $19.99 pack yields 30 of each ticket type. So 40k points each day all 3 of those packs are purchased. 40 tickets * 12 days = 480 tickets which is 60 tickets over the 420k goal. So subtract two $19.99 packs over the course of the event. This comes out to $0.99 + $4.99 + $19.99 = $25.97 per day * 12 days = $311.64 over the course of the event. Then subtract those two $19.99 packs for $311.64 - $39.98 = $271.66 expected spend to acquire Tomoe's 5 star Justice in the Night costume in a single event run.
As stated at the beginning of this section, there is an amount of randomness to daily point acquisition so it may be necessary to purchase an additional $19.99 pack.
