Legendary banner results
Since the legendary banner is leaving and there was a discussion about legendary banners just being frustrating for people, I thought I'd show what happened to me.
Objectives were reds for all 3, and greens for B.Ike and L.Hector. Wrath was lowest on the priority list, and I wasn't interested in S.Sharena.
Expected 4.51 orbs per summon on average, focus unit every 14-15 red stones and every 9-10 greens, 4* to 3* ratio of 1.71 (this last number might be a bit off because I didn't adjust for colours, just went 58%/34%).
First 311 orbs: 69 summons, so pretty much 4.51 orbs per summon exactly. 43 reds, 21 greens. 1xL.Ike, 2xB.Tharja, 2xKarla, 2xL.Hector, 1xB.Ike, 1xS.Sharena. +def -HP on L.Ike, no other remarkable IVs. That's 2 more focus reds and 1 more focus green than expected.
Other pulls: lots and lots of 3*. Only 1.22 4* for every 3* I pulled (remember, expected 1.71. It's like I pulled 5 less 4* than expected for every 10 3*s). Generally, I wasn't too happy about what was coming in fodder, especially from greens.
Next 157 orbs: 41 pulls, which is a lot. 3.83 orbs per summon. Rare to get below 4. One long dry streak until Micaiah pitybroke me +def -spd. I actually don't mind so much - I don't have her and I've wanted her. -spd is unpleasant though. I finished the circle since I was at 11.5% and got the one green focus I didn't care about, S.Sharena, already having gotten her once. Two 5* in 41 pulls is a 4.9% rate. 23 red pulls, no focus (1 or 2 below average), 12 green pulls, 1 focus (average).
Other pulls: 4* to 3* ratio of 1.29, which is again very low. Some decent fodder. Got Tailtiu and Roderick 4* finishing the pitybreak round, earlier a 3* Shanna, 4* Palla, 4* Gunter, some other stuff.
Last 118 orbs: 28 summons, so 4.21 orbs per pull, which is better than average. 2x B.Tharja, 2x L.Ike, 1x S.Sharena. 12 red pulls, 4 focus units is 3 above expectation, and 1 focus green in 10 pulls is average. 4* to 3* ratio of 1.56, so better this time but still worse than average.
These could have been three different banners. Then the first and the third would have been very nice for me, and the second would have been a disaster.
But when we add it up?
586 orbs, 138 pulls. 4.25 orbs per summon = better than average.
9 red focus in 78 pulls is 3 above expectation.
6 green focus in 43 pulls is 2 above expectation. However, I got 3x S.Sharena when I didn't want her, and I only got 1 B.Ike, so arguably I'm actually doing about average here. I could have expected 4 focus units, which on average means 1 of each plus 1 more. 2/3 that the 1 more is either B.Ike or L.Hector, and I did get an extra L.Hector. So we can consider that I got 4 focus units according to expectation, and the two extra S.Sharena are just a bonus.
4* to 3* ratio of 1.3, which is disappointing.
For fodder I was running pretty bad. Lots of Raigh, lots of Boey, lots of Y.Roy when I already have like 9 of him and don't plan to merge soon, lots of regular Tharja, all mostly at 3*.
No Ares, and more crucially, no Barst or Selena! This is quite annoying! There are only 30-ish red units in the 3*-4* pool; in 69 pulls I wanted to see Selena twice and Ares at least once! Same with greens! 20-or-so units at 3*-4* and 39 pulls? But not even one!
So I'd say this banner was actually kind of average. I was doing well in 5*s and bad for the rest, especially for 4*. But since I can probably pick up the non-focus on another banner, I have reason to be pleased. Yet, perhaps the biggest takeaway is that we can do well even if legendary banners mess with us really hard for upwards of 150 orbs - if not on the same banner, then on another banner.
Answers
mmm i didnt take precise notes of my pulls, so i cant add much to this conversation, but it was something like this:
i wanted all colours but colorless, and then in each color i wanted tiki on blue, but i wouldnt mind micchy, and i didnt care for catria.
Then tharja, ike and karla on red, and L!hector on green, tho i wouldnt mind either sharena or more Bikes.
Went in with around 160 orbs, and managed to get 2 catrias (+res -def and +spd -res ok i guess but i wont use her), 1 micchy (+res-def, way better than my previous -atk+spd), 1 tharja (+spd -def, great going there) and a bike
All in all i guess it was about average, though not getting tiki and pulling 2 catrias instead really stings.
