Ai-chan's Newsflash: Gameplay Updates
Aug 3, 2022

Dear Captain, today Ai-chan introduces to you the gameplay updates in v5.9!

After the v5.9 update, you will see new content in Supply events, returnee events and Elysian Realm. Now let's check out the details!


※※※※※ Expansion Battlesuit Supply Battlesuit Fragment & Soul Drops Adjustment ※※※※※
To optimize the progress of obtaining Battlesuit Fragments & Souls from Expansion Battlesuit Supply, the v5.9 update made the following adjustments regarding the drop of Battlesuit Fragments, Souls, and Essentine in Expansion Battlesuit Supply:

1. The Essentine system has been changed from "Available after Captains unlock the UP S-rank battlesuit of this round" to "Permanently available even when Captains don't have the UP S-rank battlesuit of this round". The rule "The numbers of Essentine offered by the first 60 drops are multiplied by 150%" has been deleted.

2. The number of Essentine offered by 1 drop has been increased from 20/30/40/50 to a fixed 50. S-rank Battlesuit Fragments & Souls from Expansion Supply drops have been replaced by A-rank Battlesuit Fragments & Souls and Battlesuit Shards.

3. The number of Essentine required to exchange for S-rank Battlesuit Fragment x1 has been lowered from 270 to 210. But the number of Essentine required to exchange for S-rank Battlesuit Soul x1 is unchanged, which is 100.

※※※※※ Focused Supply's New Guarantee System ※※※※※
Starting from v5.9, Expansion Equipment Supply will be removed and the rule "You are guaranteed to pull all UP equipment items in 200 drops" will be added to Focused Supply (This guarantee system is identical to that of Expansion Equipment Supply).

Besides, the duration of Focused Supply A and Focused Supply B will also be adjusted. Please check out official announcements for the schedule of each Focused Supply round.

※※※※※ Valkyrie Reinforcements & Equipment Reinforcements ※※※※※
Returnee Support debuts in v5.9! Returnees (who've been away for no less than 45 days) can use Hearts' Reunion on the Returnee event screen to participate in Valkyrie Reinforcements and Equipment Reinforcements. The event will last 45 days since the day of return.

The S-rank Battlesuit in Valkyrie Reinforcements is Silverwing: N-EX. Equipment Reinforcements provides Falcon Flare 0019, the recommended weapon for Silverwing: N-EX, and Wings of Reason set: Bronya: N-EX. Valkyrie Reinforcements and Expansion Supply share the same rules. Equipment Reinforcements and the new Focused Supply share the same rules.

※ Please refer to the event screen info for the specific rules of Returnee Support.


How to get Hearts' Reunion:
Returnees can participate in Valkyrie Reinforcements once for free per day (Up to 10 times of participation for free in total during the event).

Returnees can spend Crystals in Supply events (except for Dorm Supply and Returnee Support) to obtain Hearts' Reunion. 


※※※※※ Elysian Realm Update ※※※※※
After the v5.9 update, Helical Contraption and Goushinnso Memento will be playable in Elysian Realm battles and Stygian Nymph can be used as a support character. Nexus and Enhanced Signets of Helix, Daybreak, and Reverie will also be available in v5.9.

New stage effects and buff factors will also be released in v5.9. Captains can welcome new challenges in the updated Elysian Realm.

※※※※※ Memorial Arena Update ※※※※※
After the v5.9 update, the 2nd SSS-rank boss will be added to Memorial Arena. Memorial Arena will also be adjusted and better rewards will be given.

Upon reaching the score requirement of SSS-rank Boss (not UP Boss) challenge, Captains can obtain up to Ancient Legacy x12, Ancient Willpower x28, and Crystal x20.

※ Please refer to the v5.9 update announcement for more info about Memorial Arena adjustments. 

※※※※※ Superstring Dimension Nirvana Tier Trophy Update ※※※※※
After the v5.9 update, retention positions will be added to the Superstring Dimension Nirvana tier. For example, if there are 20 players in a group, Captains ranked 6th to 10th will no longer lose 200 Trophies (the number stays the same). If there are less than 20 players in a group, the number of retention positions will decrease accordingly.

Please refer to the photo below for the new trophy rule (The updated part is highlighted in yellow, and the remaining part is unchanged).
