SE did away with the armoire delay some time back. Smile
This makes me so happy to hear. Are they finally pulling their head out of their asses when it comes to the armoire? Will we someday be able to throw all our extra greens/blues in there for endless glamour wardrobe? I can dream.

I guess those yellow gloves kinda look like boxing gloves. It's a shame no weapon resembles that in-game yet, but the color doesn't quite work for me. 

A few others do have design elements of the creature that inspires it, but more the problem is coloration. If you could dye these things, some might actually be passable, at a distance. Really the big selling point for me by far is the minions and Whis.

More or less sums up my stance. I find the weapons far too cartoonish to even warrant as glamour. That said, the collector bug has bitten. So I at least want the minions/mount/achievements just to have them. If I can't toss the weapons in the Armoire immediately.... I may just toss them period. >.>

Now I have a question, I figured between my brother being a fan and this collaberation, I might as well give the anime a try so I watched a few episodes. Its...a little more like a Slice of Life show the the likes of Pokemon and Digimon.

I want to know why you guys think of the show and games?

BTW I'm going for the minions as well. And trying to get the weapons for collection's sake

So, plus side, it seems getting the minions and such aren't too bad. The near-instant FATE respawn in Outer La Noscea means you can run back and forth and get your badges pretty quick. There IS a bit of a hitch that folks should be aware of for both minions and the weapons, though.

It's not stated right away, but as you progress, you require MORE badges for the things. Your first minion is 1 token, the next three are 3, next three are 5, then 7 and finally 9 per. The total number of tokens for all the minions is 73 or something similar. I managed to get 6-7 minions in about an hour or so of FATE farming in Outer La Noscea.

Where it gets vicious is if you want the weapons. First one is 7 legendary tokens, which - as the event stuff states - has a chance to drop if you're doing FATEs in a zone with a minion whose Legendary tokens that drop there. However, EACH successive weapon requires two more tokens. So your second weapon is 9 legendary tokens, then 11, then 13, then 15. From what I read yesterday, it is unknown how much the fifth and beyond weapons are - whether they cap at 15 tokens each or if it keeps increasing to a higher cap, if there even is one.

So, if you're wanting a full set of weapons? You're going to be doing a LOT of FATE grinding. So, I'd recommend aiming for one, maybe two weapons, and just get all the minions for the ghostmobile. Likely going to be much less headache-inducing.

You DO have until October to do all this, though, so there's no particular rush if you decide you want all of the things.

The minions remind me of the Pillsbury Dough Boy for some reason and the mount looks like those peek a boo ghost from Mario lol.

I like looking at em.

Reddit research has the numbers on the weapons. It starts at seven, then nine, then eleven, thirteen, and "capping" at fifteen for weapons four through ten. For the last three? Thirty each. For a grand total of 222 legendary tokens required to get all the weapons.

... Keep in mind that getting all the minions costs 73 normal medals, which have a 100% drop rate as long as you have the watch on (though, fortunately you don't need to be wearing the watch to get the legendary medals, just have the "right" minion out) and don't require you to be using the "right" minion to get them to spawn.

I don't think I'll be going for more than two weapons.

There's a mount reward for collecting all weapons.

The ride will never end.

You mean the ghost mobile for getting all the minions? Or is there a second, unmentioned mount?

... Well I'll be. Looked it up and there really is a second, supposedly flashier ghost mobile for getting all the weapons. I... don't know if I care enough to get it. That is a LOT of FATE grinding.

I'm mixing both. Got Robonyan F-2 because I liked the look of the machinist weapon (and considering how EX Mog will be a fucking pain to do over and over again for the glamour I might use it as a replacement glamour) and started doing FATEs in the appropriate areas. Probs gonna port back and get the minions as I complete it.

That's... kinda how I've been doing it? The first day, I basically had a minion (Toko) who gets legendary medals out in Outer La Noscea. Did those FATEs until I had seven legendary tokens, then I went back to pick up the weapon and turned in all the regular tokens picked up in the process for more minions. Considering the time of day, I took a break there, but that's basically what I did yesterday too - switched to another minion that gets legendaries (USApyon this time) in that zone and farmed again.

Given the drop rate of the normal medals, though, you're going to get all the minions WAY before the weapons. Even if you were the luckiest person in the world and got a legendary token drop every FATE. You'd still be a third of the way to having all the tokens you need for all the weapons.

It is definitely a ton of FATE grinding but it's not absolutely awful. I think we've got about three months to do it in? Going for one a day typically has you grind FATEs for about an hour depending on RNG. I've heard rumor that the last 3 weapons require 30 legendary tokens per, so I don't know if I'll be doing those all in one day. I don't think it's necessarily terrible unless you're a masochist and want to fate grind for days without stop.

I seem to have no interest in this event like previous ones. Maybe it's because it's a promotion for Yo-Kai watch that was talked about for a month in the us and then forgotten.
Maybe it's because the weapons and mount along with the pets are unappealing to me personally...
Or maybe I was not into the Yo-Kao watch hype after playing the demo....what a let down for combat.

The event itself and the grind is fine but the rewards feel so lackluster. Even the mount is sort of meh. Silly but meh.

I'll be skipping on this event though. First one I am skipping in my MMO playtime Sad

So can confirm as I now have it, there is a second mount for getting all the weapons.  Its the same as the first mount except it glows a little more, is blue tinted rather than red, and has the red two tailed cat clinging to the side.
