[@GrayRavenRadio]

Time to confess: are you getting Bianca: Stigmata's "Snow Petals" coating? ❄

[@TofuNeck]

YES IF I SURVIVE

[@BlackwindZarya]

. . . I will admit it just this once. *I will be whaling for that coating, AND NOBODY WILL STOP ME!* *-Unknown Construct **_a_*

[@TKS87]

no

[@onokenfudou3394]

I would love to, but as a regular Monthly Pass Holder there's just so much I can do, so I would rather focus on characters rather than on the coatings themselves, specially since Gen.2 Alpha is out on the same patch and we all know how absolutely insane she is lol.

[@endarion88172]

started playing this game just for bianca stigmata so...

[@magpiezaychik]

Bianca was the literal reason I even started playing. Saw her Stigmata form advertised leading up to the banner release and it reminded me of Artoria from Fate. So to see her coating look more Paladin Holy like is awesome. Really gives that EXCALIBUR feel

[@nateklempner561]

It made me think of Saber Lily once I thought about it a little more. A couple months ago I was thinking I'd skip the coating gacha, but now that we're closer and I'm approaching my S Rank summon goal in terms of saving for Hyperreal through Crimson Weave, I'm realizing I can absolutely go for this beautiful coating with no worries over not summoning enough of the god-tier S Rank Attackers coming out.

[@Randgriz6]

Best part is that...Jp va is the same as saber...and yes both Bianca and the VA made me started the game waaaay back XD

[@reimaya8126]

believe or not i am saving for this event since >>> N O W

[@joemartin7451]

yep me too. except i came to the game completely blind. lucky for me it was the start of stigmata event. and i knew i had to pull for her when i saw her. she was the saber alter i always wanted to play in a video game. even better to know she is part of the meta too. this skin looks cool but her original skin captures the saber alter feel. especially with her ult2 move.

[@lop1652]

Kawasumi Ayako voicing both sure is a nice coincidence, hahahah

[@Pk-yi3wx]

I fucking LOVE the coating. BUT I am also a massive fan of sword beams. As a big fan of Saber form Fate, swordbeams make me weak and its one of the reason why I love Balter on top of her shared VA Ayako Kawasumi. So when she just gets a big ol sword rather than a beam of light, it does indeed hurt me a bit.

[@veliona8920]

Bianca Astigmata and Crimson Weave Alpha were the biggest reasons for my return to PGR and as someone who has a paid a substantial amount for HI3 skins, I don't care what this cost, this absolutely breathtaking coating will be mine. I was literally getting goosebumps watching this video and could literally not pick up my jaw from the floor. This is probably one of the best character skins I've ever seen.

[@eXeFTW]

Just picked up the game after seeing gameplay for the upcoming Ayla and this is easily my favorite new channel. Entertaining and informative, plus the random hit sound effects always get a laugh out of me (and was that hyper beam at 3:54?) And yes, absolutely picking this coating up. I joined for Ayla but I was not prepared for Bianca

[@quinslion4563]

I whaled to the max on Bianca this patch and it will be written in the stars that her coating and all that embodies her glory ( whips crying wallet ) be attained lol

[@lemoniscate]

Amen, my brother in whaling

[@HowAreYou2]

​@@lemoniscatebro wailing too

[@OtakuGamingEdits]

This will cost you 17,500 BC but you get a return value through 2500 event event construct tickets and 2500 target weapon tickets in addition to a 6 star weapon resonance material worth 7500 BC. In terms of account progression, you're losing 5000 BC worth which isn't as bad as the overall price makes it seem.

[@coffeebreak7668]

As someone who's never bothered to look into it, how exactly is a 6 star weapon resonance material worth 7500 BC?

[@yxunny]

Did this coating get a rerun in CN?

[@sarettodn5708]

​@@coffeebreak7668 pitying a 6 weapon to use as reso fodder is 30 pull which is 7500 bc, in practice though a reso usb isnt really as valuable as 7500 bc since its possible to get weapons in less than 30 pulls and you can also get reso frags with bp currency, norman and expedition

[@sarettodn5708]

​@@yxunny yes but cost rc

[@qiuec0]

@@coffeebreak7668 a 6* weapon resonance material is equivalent to a 6* weapon, which for that you will need at max 7500 bc (30 pulls) for it. Example if you get a dupe of Balter's weapon Hecate, usually people would use that as resonance fodder so 6* weapon = 6* weapon resonance material = 7500 bc

[@saur...]

Thanks for the information ℹ️

[@eugeneoxtord]

It's 10000% worth it. Look at the Nikke costume gacha for example: You CAN'T get the costume as a F2P. You HAVE TO sink in 60$ to get it. (Yeah, 2d skin for 60$) The fact that you can get this coating FOR FREE, and it also comes with A LOT of other stuff - is flipping amazing

[@massimoye597]

What do you mean getting it for free?

[@limchuanzhong5669]

@@massimoye597 as in "save ur bc, not pulling for other characters" free

[@rey00032]

It's mean you can play the game, collect enough bc, get the skin, without spending real money.

[@DarkLess89X]

From f2p You have to choose to take this skin or the next character 😂 Absolutely not raccomaeded if you buy the monthly passes, in 5 months you can earn 17k bc at a price of around 25/30 euro dollar depending on where you buy

[@oklahoma8666]

​@@limchuanzhong5669 look at the bright side, technically you get refounded 12500 bc 2500 character currency 2500 weapon currency And the weapon res chip count as 7500 bc (weapon banner pity)

[@lexer6400]

Thank you for always keep create great content, You are my fav PGR content creator. 😀

[@GrayRavenRadio]

You are so sweet, thank you 🥰

[@jra1908]

thanks much. i am already 100% decided to get the skin when i first saw this months ago, but i am happy to hear about the other prizes in the gacha.

[@adrianmarcelleno2471]

Really like your content ☺️ need more for upcoming patch

[@ohman5004]

Really helpful content XD... BTW hopefully in the future there will be videos about resource management and advance things like resonance for us newbs in pgr... Tq tho

[@OfentsePlays]

This is, the most beautiful coating I have seen in any game. This is a definite must-get for me. I love everything about it, and the very honourable pose after the battle is done, she has her hands on the pommel of her sword, and the camera closing in on her for her animation as we see her beautiful blue eyes. That, is my favourite part.

[@user-ashborn16]

Have been preparing myself since i started this game in january. Nothing in this planet will stop me from getting her coating. My soul is ready!!!

[@CatharticStasis]

We will get it! STRIVE! FOR THE TIME IS COMING! WE MUST ACQUIRE BIANCA FLASHBANG! Also, great video GrayRavenRadio, fantastic work as always!

[@Dexyne]

The true reason she has this coating during Alpha's patch is because she is Solon's waifu, and it was already too many months since her patch! On my end, I will get it for sure, I already have enough right now as I started my eco prior to Bianca's patch but got lucky on Bianca and her weapon (and her pet) which is great. And also there is the blue card banner during Lamia's patch for those that plan to skip a character if necessary (I was planning to skip Lee in my case if I couldn't get enough in-between but I'll skip XXI for Lamia + BRS patch instead) as she is the last character available on the banner that got out. A perfect plan if I say so myself!

[@edboi2154]

Watching this because goddamn I don't think I can pull for Crimson Weave and Stigmata at the moment and get both AAAAAUGHHH

[@diahgo5226]

you got me with the profile frame

[@HeyImKatyusha]

im currently waiting for lucia crimson wave. i will get her the second she comes out!

[@hollowfragment237]

I just love the scenery background

[@tiachi_uchiha2911]

U just got yourself a new subscriber lol, I actually only play this on mobile and I gotta say Bianca is my #1 Waifu on PGR I love her so much 😩

[@phillipjfry105]

damn that's beautiful. I'll be saving from now to get the skin and Alpha

[@Player-re9mo]

I'm gonna get Bianca's coating and Lucia Crimson Weave both! I'm gonna farm in game and irl too. I need them!

[@RevhuXO]

Im more on the Team Bianca than alpha, though i will still go for alpha and the bianca coating. I started playing Pgr because i saw Bianca and her coating, and i will get her the coating as a gift.

[@limchuanzhong5669]

The more i watch gray raven radio video the more i feel they are as chaotic as us players xD (heck yeah 17500 bc felt worth it, i mean we get the skin set, but the lobby background is the best one and the one that sold me 😍😍

[@ej879]

I'm no meta chaser so I'm definitely gonna go for broke for this. and If I get lucky I might be able to get alpha as well. so I wish good luck to everyone who would be getting this coating with BC

[@mumeipgr]

I'm totally going to get this coating and get alpha from the standard selector banner

[@Jake-zk3eb]

I just got the exorcist skin, but I'm still thinking about this one.

[@MarioLuigi0404]

I absolutely must have that lobby background.

[@handsomejack2201]

I came back like a week ago and managed to sweep all Bianca related stuff. Planned to save till Alpha and I think I will have enough for this at the time. If not, then GL to me.

[@yuanshen7177]

Absolutely love the skin, but As a new player, I missed the bianca stigmata as I don't have enough time to get her. Will she be available to get again before the skin tho

[@DriveAxe]

This is gonna be fastest 500 RC I'll get. Bianca is absolutely G O R G E O U S. And ice effects are just cherry on top. Also I really like how a giant sword falls down on the enemy. For me it feels more impactful than blasting away with a beam sword.

[@salty7182]

from saber alter to saber lily, the devs knows what they're doing

[@ArtificialHuman1]

so... it's debuing in alpha's patch (i forgot how many month i have till that) and has an obscene 17.5k bc cost but returns about 2500 rnd tickets for event, so i assume it's similar to pulling a character, by this logic i will need to get enough for full 2 characters in a single patch, maan i really gotta miss the 100% rateup at anniversary if this goes on

[@SmithOfGear92]

This is tricky... I would really like this coating, along with the weapon coating that goes along with it. The profile icon border and menu lobby are nice, but I don't really need them; looks like you can get those after a certain amount of pulls on the banner though, so if I'm really unlucky, at least there's a consolation prize. Plus, those R&D tickets and that Weapon Resonance adapter have my mouth watering. *None of this is set in stone since there's no way of knowing if I'll get exactly what I want...* Luckily, since the next patch is about Bambinata-- an A Rank, I can continue saving up; I have a metric ton of those Blue Construct R&D tickets saved up from not using them as well as a crap-ton of A Rank Inver-Shard Fragments from all the dupes I pull. However, the next patch is also when Rosetta purportedly gets her Racing Game SFX coating, which I need as badly as we First Day Alyaists need Alya's Dazzler coating. Plus, we have an even bigger problem: after Bambinata comes *MAH BOI* Lee Hyperreal. Then after Lee, us First Day Alyaists rejoice as Alya Kaleido arrives. Then *after Ayla,* Alpha Crimson Weave hops off her badass motorcycle and wants to show us her *MOTIVATION.* Three S-Rankers back to back; good lord 😩 I know you can craft Ayla for free, but sheesh... Tl;dr: *I'm probably going to have to donate a kidney*

[@ReXaZz]

I'm new player and stumbled upon your channel. Your content is very informative, I love your voice, and you just gain a new subscriber ^.^. Also I got Bianca yesterday with 10 pulls so happy as a new player and just noticed it was also her last day on the banner. I'm opening the selector boxes for Rigor and Luminance to pair her today and it's amazing.

[@GrayRavenRadio]

Thank you so much ✨ Wow congrats on the excellent luck!

[@Haryanto8899]

She's the reason I came back playing pgr after 1 year hiatus

[@jonasznizio8675]

I'm f2p and i got bianca on my 2nd account and i got 3 rossetta from base in a row and livs weapon on 1 single pull so it just seemed right to get her there. I had 45k bc so i got sss because she is my favourite frame in pgr overall. Although her original skin is more my style, and i prefer the purple/blacl cplour palette i think it wpuld sstill be cool to get this skin so i can switch inbetween them. I made the second account so that could get things that i cant on ky main. I'll probably get this skin and then ill start saving for another element team .

[@qwinn9963]

Still love my black Varitas Bianca

[@jeje4131]

I if you calculate the rewards in the end cost just 10000 if you go full

[@agatebeowulf643]

Just got Bianca's outfit today, and I can say that it was worth it. Now to save for Karenina's next

[@HonkaiDaily]

My thoughts exactly, and make Future plans for Vera & Lamia, gotta get em All 😂💯

[@simplydave9649]

I already have Liv's gatcha coating, and yes I spent cash on that sh*t, so meaning I'm already deep into this rabbit hole.

[@RaihanSalim-nw7tm]

Wil you get the skill attack ultimate effect etc if i only buy the weapon skin

[@fkinsrsly7552]

I have saved around 6.8k BC currently, ever since after getting stigmata upon her release. I am pretty sure I can save upto 17.5k BC and more by the time this skin releases. Thanks for reaffirming the decision I was having trouble on making; whether to save for the skin or not. This beautiful coating deserves my BC. Subbed!

[@saimyintmyat9373]

Lmao 17k BC for gacha skin. I thought Honkai3 gacha skin costs are more expensive.

[@babaseu]

​@@saimyintmyat9373but 17k bc on pgr is so easy to get, for example 1 stage story gave u 30bc instead 15 like honkai. and weekly gave you lot of bc in just 1 week

[@vince4503]

​​​@@saimyintmyat9373its the hard pity, ofc you'll get other stuff like 6* weapon dupe and 10 pulls weapon and 10 pulls for chars too, as seen in 3:46

[@rtg9733]

​@@saimyintmyat9373gacha skin + bridge background + weapon resonance materials

[@ShinHakumen]

​​@@saimyintmyat9373But you also get 2500 character gacha cards and 2500 weapon gacha cards in the banner, so it's effectively only 12,500 BC. And since you get a ton of free BC anyway, it's not that hard to save up even if you're F2P. If you buy the BC pass regularly, it becomes even easier.

[@shutter-chan]

This coating is still available in jp but I held off cuz Raven's new coating is just a few patches away.

[@RobLucciXIII]

Card gonna get worked like it did for Stigmata patch.

[@mitsurugi667]

I'll be honest the coating looks great, and Kuro Game did great work with it, and I have enough black cards saved up, but there's just to many characters that I want. First of course, I want Alpha Crimson Weave. I been waiting on her, since I saw videos of her that got me playing the game. The other characters I want are No.21 Feral Scent, Lamia, and Qu:Shukra. Plus, I like Alpha: Crimson Weave so much that I was actually planning on getting a copy of her 6 star weapon and a copy of her cub/pet. I did the same with Bianca: Stigmata. Another thing is that even though this is a great skin. I'm still unsure if I like it more than the default one (I take offense to the generic remark about her default coating). I like the default coating cause it fits her theme (Stigmata), which make me think more of a witch than a snow knight like this skin does as the Stigmata frame has been corrupted. So, honestly I really just might wait for a rerun on this skin.

[@arisufizu5698]

I've played PGR a lot back in 2019-2020 but I stopped because of burn out. I came back when I saw Stigmata

[@KuroganeX6]

can you carry over your pulls on the rerun? im curious about that..

[@vishalkapri3769]

Bcuz of this skin i did not summon bianca but i eill definitely pull this skin now 😎

[@Akito-zb4np]

00:51 THAT SHOULD'VE BEEN ME! NOT THE SWORD!!!

[@bunn228]

If you pull 20 on the first run of it, and happened to get the background, does the background exist in the pool for the second run? Or does the pool get smaller? Wondering if I could pull a little bit and see what i get on the first run, and then pull the rest on the second, or if it'd be better to save up and get everything in 1.

[@nguyenngocduyan973]

I want to ask if I pull on the coating rerun, will I still have the pulls I have in the first run, or I have to pull all over again? Definitely get her, but I have never pulled on a coating gacha, so I just wanted to make sure.

[@joji2221]

Genuine question! Will this coating have its rerun on BRS patch? Because that is what I've seen tho I can't confirm it myself. It is because I won't skip Hyperreal but rather skip 21 Feral Scent instead and pull her on Lamia patch. In that way, I won't suffer badly on Ult PPC and WZ at the same time, I'll be able to get the skin.

[@IronGiant2790]

Worth.

[@imdumb2053]

if u dont have enough bc will the pity carry over to the rerun like the banners?

[@5FRANKDATANK12]

Imma do it 👍

[@ResearcherReasearchingResearch]

I want it, and I will get it too. It's too good to pass up.

[@deadaccent]

Not being able to get Lee on time left me with 58/60 pity so I will get both Alpha and this Godly coating. My lazyness of not checking the deadline of Lee's banner did me too good.

[@wolfs1186]

As a person who wants skin plus sss+ alpha my wallet is gonna have horrible time in february. I was thinking about not going for skin but its just too damn beautiful to drop it 😅

[@Nariyuko]

One of the best skins in PGR.

[@handsomejack2201]

Upd from my comment 4 month ago. Got all 90 and I think lobby alone worth it. I wasn't playing on both annis (a bit of regret now looking at theme selector, I didn't know at the time) so new background and white pallet for menu is a bright light in the previous kingdom of... grey. Also managed to grab CW with weapon and cub. Guess this is no №21 for me for real, but I think it was a huge win in the end, to hoard until wintry shackles🎉🎉

[@AxehnWHY]

[@kyouko197]

watched this today and i have a question, if i already pull until 50 will the next rerun still keep the progress bar at 50? or it reset to 0 and i can get dupes

Skipping Lee Hyperreal for this coating. Is it a good idea to skip a high tier meta unit for a coating? Probably not but the bell sound on the signature is sooo cool and is what sold me to go for the coating (alongside everything else about the coating being cool) . Also Black Rock Shooter and the fire tank version of Watanabe that will release much later down the line can fill for Lees spot in the fire team. Might even go for the monthly pass to get the coating and Alphas motorbike CUB depending on how many cards I have at that point. I don't care about meta, I'm going for style.

[@RanRan_11]

If you skip Lee, you can also get him during Lamia's patch through the standard banner that lets you choose which S rank you want (until new Alpha), guaranteed. That is only if you're not planning to use it to SS someone else.
