yeah maybe its spending week or power up week

in which event is shisui gonna be? in konoha great tree or where?

...huh

nice

Am I the only one who is bothered by skillbooks being released then end up being free on day 1? I mean wasn't the whole "gather frags for skillbooks" the whole premise? So why bother gathering frags of Oasis gives us these skillbooks for free on day 1?

Rank 6 to 7 costs up to 800, 7 to 8 up to 1600, 8 to 9 up to 4000 threads. Even if we do it only on rebates, we just save up a very little % of it.

In average rank 6 to 9 directly costs around 5000 threads if you get full advantage of rebates. Even for your average 500$ per month whale it's something close to be unaffordable and now also pretty meaningless (during the battle armor panic buy they cost 38 ingots each one. Means around 200,000 ingots invested there to get what Myoboku Trial cultivation or Summon Cultivation or Charms grant you with less than 50k).

That's the reason why, de facto, not even whales in servers younger than 250 ever thought to go for them.

Had a meaning before Ultimate Training implementation, when was the only way to get an advantage in power, now in 4.0 it's useless to go on with this strictly policy of denial.

they aren't giving you the full books, just a part of them. Like for Neji. There's mystery +1, chase +1, passive +1 and +2.

Can't complain about these events, good mixture of F2P and P2W. although it was pretty obvious the rebate events were coming as it is that time of the month but it would be nice if OG implement some form of schedule as to when certain events will be out I.E 1st event week is blah blah blah followed by a bonus event, 2nd event week is blah blah followed by a bonus event etc. Helps players keep control of their resources so they know exactly what to save up and when to save it up but all in all, nice balance this week.

We made it guys, we reached the point where people are complaining about Oasis giving free stuff, it's all going to be downhill from now on!

Those rebates, at least since charm intruduction were around for like... 8 months now? +- 1 week depending if theres any additional seasonal event like halloween, christmas, easter. Those who wanted to know what to expect and when should have already figured it out :P Also considering how long the grind is in this game, whether you stockpile wrong items (eg you put emphasis on refines instead of charms given month), you will simply end up reaching higher rebate during next months rebate comes back. Those items dont lose value, since you should be using those items only during their corresponding rebates anyway. In a long run, it doesn't matter if you use that rebate this month or next, only important thing is to use threshold that has the best rewards:required items ratio

Fully agree with others about advanced threads. Even if they are really in the drop table, there's no reason 60cp item shouldn't drop on regular basis from SA, even at small quantities like 0-1 with 50% chance on each extreme SA. Look at seal scrolls, which have more overall value- they drop from ninja test, survival, sealed on regular basis even though they cost more. Right now only source of adv threads is space-time shop, in which average player that gets 400coins gets a whopping 7threads/month. That, or at least add them to events. It's been 1.5 year since the game release and I could count on fingers how many times I've seen them as redeemable. Even adding threads to the treasure of the sages would be gigantic change for all of us. There's no reason why this item should be that rare, since every new feature that gives power give it at much better ingot:power ratio.

We really need more breakthrough, which is actually beneficial for both playerbase and the dev team. There's literally close to no skilbook from basic ninjas (basic as those from elite instance/redemption shop) that is gamechanging and shakes the meta for heavy spenders, but 1) it provides some variation for collectors, 2)siginicant help for newbies/medium power players, 3) developer team gets praise instead of curses and critique because they add free content. It doesn't matter that that content for top players is useless, it's free content for majority of players. Notice that we arent asking for kage super rare's books and mutations the moment GNW treasure was released, because that would be actually unfair towards most spending players- it's too soon to implement breakthroughs that can easily compete with newly released event ninjas. I don't really know how to put it in even more simple words- we are just asking for something, anything, give us that crappy ninjas on regular basis at least. Considering how many ninjas there are, we could be getting 3new breakthrough and 3 new premium event ninja every month, and everybody would be satisfied. Unless you are planning to introduce them in a gigantic batch together with mutation system, there's no reason to not add more less common ninjas right now.

As for events itself, looks promising. There should be recharge rebate, since spending synergy is great this week, there are viable spending events (treasure of the sages, konoha trees) but there's no recharge rebate at all.

I do appreciate the fact Great Ninja War Treasure was included in the selective treasure recruitment rebate, thanks for that.
On a side note, would I be a s.o.b. if I asked what redeemables are in each event in the future, please?
I can only imagine Shisui will be in the Great Tree though. In any case, if a mod has some spare time to share the info of what is redeemable before events end tonight, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks.

So we can officially say that the Refine rebate got moved from week 1 to week 2/3?

bleh why no land of lightning treasure in rebate ZZZZZZZZZZZZ screw kage no one using that again lool or even jin 1 sigh :(

Still no news on Ultimate Training? man, come on..

I know they are not giving everything, I'd rather the skillbooks be out for about 4 months before giving them out is all I'm saying.

It's too early to say this since the holiday events messed up the order. They probably added the refine rebate since people were complaining about it not showing up in it's typical order.

Yohoooowwwww Refining rebate im coming >.<

The update is here but i see no shisui -_-

Meh, the events are getting lame and expensive. They seem awful set on bleeding the money out of our pockets before catching us up to the rest of the world.... Save your money, maybe one day they will reduce the price, be more transparent with their event and seal treasures and overall stop stealing the crap out of people's money. Lure them in thinking they are going to get what they want for cheap, then give them nothing... lmfao. Won't get any more of my money.

what time do events go live? 6am and nothing
