I've been meaning to get Katarina since she came out, but then I flopped towards the end. I've been aiming for Reds all that banner and got Athena and Luke.
1. Can I hope for an Owl Tome banner.
2. How many orbs do you recommend getting before trying again.
Currently have 24 orbs, and I can still hope to get at least twice to even three times as much through Quests, Arena and all that.
Thank you.
Katarina is one I've wanted for a while. Aside from an Owl Tome Banner, maybe the next Tempest Trial will take place in Mystery of the New Emblem.
Tempest Trials have so far taken place in Awakening and Echoes, so there are many possibilities. Otherwise, go all red pulls and hope for the best, but there are a ton of reds out there to get.
You don't. She's 5-star exclusive and unless you legitimately start resetting/re-rolling your entire game over and over you won't have any 'decent' chances at her. The main banners out right now are all sword lord (and thajra) focused so there isn't even a raised chance at her.
At best, you can maybe hope the blade tome banner's replacement is an Owl Tome banner assuming they keep up the inheritance theme banners but there is zero guarantee of that since these inheritance banners seem to be made on a whim and are never announced
It's kinda difficult to get her without a focus so you need to wait for a banner that includes her. Like you said, one focusing on Owl Tomes or maybe the Ploy skills.
Just save every orb you can get until you have like 90. What some people do (including me) if a banner does have a unit we really want is to do between 2-4 full summons to make the rate go up, then snipe (in your case pull only red stones) until we get them. This saves orbs and you may get different units for skill fodder and if you're lucky, a 5*.
Also, don't use your free summon yet, use it when you have enough orbs to do a full session so you save even more orbs (you use 15 instead of 20, these 5 orbs count specially if you're F2P). The rest of it is pure luck, you can even get her while you're pulling in a different banner, so good luck with your summons. Be patient and you will have her someday (and I hope with good IV's).
I actually never saw free summons and taking advantage of the summoning rate like that. It's only recent for me to see that people do a few full-summon to spike it up, and then try whaling for your color.
I couldn't wait now, so I kind of wasted most of them...currently down at 2 orbs. I don't feel too bad because I know I'll get more, but now that I know this I know I feel a lot more motivated to save up to that point now.
Thanks.
You're welcome. It's the best way to get a specific unit without using too much orbs. Since it's luck, you can even get the unit in the first or second sessions but it's really useful to save orbs.
September is coming so we will have new month quests and there's a lot of events that may happen before a Katarina banner appears so you have plenty of time to get orbs. Good luck!
