I know. Already have her but it takes freaking forever to get red rings in this game. And with the amount of eggs it takes to get the amount of red rings that I can use to spin the wheel is going to take a bit of time. Let alone the fact that when I spin the wheel there is a high ass chance that I'm going to end up with something worthless rather than the chao or bunny that would make going through the special stages more enjoyable as I would be collecting rewards at a faster pace.
I think for this event you get the egg chao or bunny on your first spin landing on normal or rare eggs, after that it's back to RNG.
Unfortunately I can confirm that's not the case. First spin I had after the event gave me a baby laser wisp (which is useless since I have Yacker)
Unfortunately the Merlina grind is not too useful when it comes to getting red rings (Unless you have the Egg Carrier, then maybe), but it's great for points, assuming you don't lose your combo to bullshit (looking at you Robotnik)
The amount of times I've lost my combo due to miscellaneous bs is insane. When it comes to Eggman avoid springs like the plague. It is very easy to lose your combo if there isn't any item on the ground when you land. Losing your combo because you're flung into an enemy that just appeared on-screen after you made a jump is annoying as hell.
well that sucks, as today the two spins I did unlocked the easter buddies so I presumed their chances were super high, maybe they are but not 100%
Are there any tips for getting high combos? The most I can get without Wisps is 300 (thought I think that's because my phone is old and tends to lag, so it's quite easy to miss items). Also, I noticed there's a lot of comments about Charmy being bad. Any reason why? I find his multiple jumping to be useful.
I managed to get a combo up to about 26k using the bunny and merlina strats, every time I changed character the bunny had about 20 overlaying graphics and my iphone would pause for a second, he was never designed to combo so high lol.
Oh there's no particular reason why Charmy is bad. He's just Tails with a Ring bonus. People around here just don't like Charmy. The reason the flight characters anger people is because flight damages from above and not below, which is contrary to every time Tails has been playable.
Ok runners veterans seeing as those outside of Canada/Japan haven't had a chance to play this yet, is it worth our lengthy wait? What's the best part of the game, and the worst?
Once you start flying you're in a permanently vulnerable state unless you're lucky enough to hit an enemy from above. Speed and Power characters remain in an attacking state during all their double and triple jumps, except after the Dash attack but you can always jump again after that. They also have a slower descent after flying which messes up the timing with a lot of platforms. Charmy and Tails (and Rouge, Cream and Silver by virtue) are the least useful characters.
Rabbit combo bonus is rather easy to abuse but it's rather pointless since you get no score or points from it. And that was in a run where the 3rd eggman boss made me drop my (abusing colour power with merlina) combo
For the first time I won the ring jackpot available in the item roulette: You have to land on the 'big' section three times in a row to get the jackpot. Nice! I also got this notification:
By god, I am trying to stay interested in this game but it is getting really hard. Red rings are so far and few between by now.... I also need one more special egg but that's not gonna happen because I'm at the "20 hits per boss" stage of the game.
