How should I summon on tomorrow?

I asked this question yesterday, but one person didn't answer and the other I don't feel like they helped me (they tried, it just didn't work for me). When I start summoning tomorrow, I will have about 200 orbs. My main targets on the Legendary Banner are Eirika, Olivia, Sumia and Bride Ninian, plus I also want some extra merges for Female Grima and some of the others I wouldn't mind for fodder (Male Grima, Summer Tana, Ephraim and Genny).

However, I do also want Halloween Myrrh and Mia. I already spent 55 orbs on that banner and got Kagero (who I wanted, so I wasn't upset). And I won't be summoning after tomorrow's session because I will start saving orbs again for the next Legendary Banner.

What's the recommendation to do?

I don’t care too much about getting seasonals and just see them as bonuses you might get on legendary banners. So in my case I’d just wait for the next legendary banner with her on it. When I didn’t get Innes and his daddy version what did I do? I gave Summer Leo an owltome and pretended he didn’t exist until November. For the case of LARoy I pulled hard for right there however. Your call? You know all I know. You also probably know what you want better than I do

1. Focus on SEASONAL heroes since they are extremely rare and random, unless you dont reallly need them or you have other priorities. Seassonal have the adventaje that last lot of time (1 month). You will have access to them only on this banner, 1 time more on some random legendary banner and then, on the next year halloween banner...

2. Focus on LEGENDARY banners. People just cry a lot about LBanners but I always get at least 2 heroes from these banners, and I never save up orbs (I have 2 right now). Also LBanners rates grown much faster and easier than other. You will get SOMETHING, thats sure.
Just pull for BLUE or RED orbs and ignore others (dont try to pull others colors just to increase the rate, its not worth and you will get pitybroken easier).

Since you want Eirika, Oliva and Tana, and also Ephraim, Ninian and the other blue one, you will always get something you desire... I dont see the problem here.

Hmm, if what I offered wasn't clicking for you, I'd be interested to hear whether it was that it didn't make sense, or if something wasn't clear, or whether you weren't sure what to do with the information or what was missing for you.

My recommendation based on what I wrote earlier is that you wait for the Halloween units to reappear on legendary banners. It's a risk because you might not like the units sharing their colour, but if you pull for one now, you can expect to fork over 150 orbs (any less and I'd say you got off easy) likely getting an off-focus with her as a bonus. That leaves you with 50 orbs to try on the legendary banner, which will maybe get you one focus unit.

In contrast, if you go straight for the legendary banner, you can probably pick up three focus units. And I would suggest sticking to red and blue. You have a lot of interests on the banner and you'll get the most value this way.

I just don't 100% understand the percentages on the Should You Pull sections. However, this answer is much more understandable and will just summon on the Legendary Banner. However, there are other things I want from green and colorless, mostly for fodder (Genny and Sothe), merge projects (Female Grima and Camilla) or better IVs (Bride Sanaki).

If you're ok with getting less of the other focus units on the legendary banners you could do full circles.

The percentages on the should you pull articles can be pretty confusing. I know what they mean, but I'm not sure how to devise strategy using them. Basically what it means is this: let's suppose you have the 50% number of orbs and you snipe that colour. If you do it over and over and over again, half the time you will get the targeted focus, and half the time you will not. The challenge for us is that we summon on each banner once, and some focus units we're more willing to miss than others, plus there can be other considerations like getting other focus units of the same colour. So it's not obvious how high of a percentage we want to have before we commit to targeting a focus unit, and if we're pulling multiple colours then I'm really not sure how to use the information they offer (so I do my own calculations). Akariss seems to imply 90% is a good number for targeting a focus unit. If you have the 90% number of orbs every time you target a focus unit, you will succeed on 9/10 banners. However, that number is usually in the upper 200s if not above 300 or sometimes 400, and about 1 in 10 banners is how often you will actually need to fire that many orbs to get the target focus, so I'm not convinced that being able to cover 90% on every banner is the best strategy.
