[SF: Duel] - Updated Shop guide! Time to shift focus & not be a BOOMER! Buy the right things

[@aznkether]

I would argue that you should still buy the red Soul Cores. You're correct that it's Gem-inefficient, but much like Special Summoning tickets, they are an extremely valuable and limited resource. I've stopped spending gems on Car Tokens and shifted that resource for the red Soul Cores, and am only paying an additional 300-400 Gems. The potential power you get from the red Soul Cores, in my opinion, is too invaluable to pass up. At the moment, the gap between a character with potentially maxed 120 Soul Cores, and one without any Soul Cores, is quite large.

[@PayneBlade]

Ya I just see them in the city for 150 of them for 35k tokens Rather refresh that for 1k and get them again

[@Just_A_Name14]

Yes and those aren’t random like cars can be. You’ll forever buy 30+ extra cars to get one useful car

[@norrinradd8671]

Nice. This is the exact regimen I follow as well. Good to see some confirmation that I'm buying the right stuff. Thanks again man. :)

[@Alias_Salia]

id recommend saving up some (by some i mean a lot) of guild coins to prepare for t3 stones which they will eventually introduce and buy\upgrade gear to t3 sooner, faction gear will drop randomly and you can still change the faction so for end game it's a priority but not like super top priority

[@FondantApple]

Thank you for the update version of what to buy in the shop!!

[@gbz-ninjaz9354]

Thank you for all your vids and tips.

[@PayneBlade]

Anytime broski

I'm curious about your thoughts on using gems for the hero choice summons. I'm f2p and on Ch. 33, as well. I usually spend my gems exclusively on the special summons tickets, after I get my 3 hero choice (almost 4!), because there are always necessary faction heroes that I need to build up. Like, getting Guile to 5*, or getting Summer Yang to SSS(I've had very poor luck in getting him from stones and tokens).

[@PayneBlade]

I honestly use it when I need a last unit to finish sss or to get to sss+5. I know many people don't like it but I think it's an excellent resource

[@foomp]

IMO, the original tokens (purple ones for FS1-10) are very much worth the gems from the regular shop. I don't recall if it was always this cheap, but 498 gems for 30 of them is VERY good IMO. I want to say it was a more recent change for them to be this cheap, because it'd be weird that the cash value for purple is about the same as gold (FS11-20) but their gem value is so different. 498 gems for 30 purple vs 1560 for 20 gold. I'm actually conflicted on the Soul Shards. We don't know how long it'll be until they start having more characters with the buffs, so until we see how quickly they roll that out, I'd honestly say it's not worth spending the cash (or gems for the cores) for them. We do get a few from idle that's why.

[@demonvector8678]

I officially give up on the game but I do want to say keep up the good content!

[@PayneBlade]

Thanks bro!

[@christopherpetry5362]

Anyone having trouble claiming rewards from the Ken portion? I finished 21st in my battle zone, but nothing in my inbox. Was there a delay on rewards for this event?

[@PayneBlade]

Ya maybe end of event

[@stronggirlarmy6936]

I'm at 25 and I don't yet have access to raids which seems to be the big regular diamond provider for you. Oh and because you asked in another video I still can't access the +2 options when event stores come up

[@a2daj]

I always buy the Tanuki Whirl fragment.

[@PayneBlade]

Ah ya that's a good option for the ex move

[@Lionheart198]

Strange i havent got the soul shards to show up in my city shop yet, maybe your shop reset after update?

[@PayneBlade]

Just gotta refresh

[@cuzinpete2713]

I buy faction gear from guild shop, but it is taking a very long time to gear my team out. I am struggling with cash. Hopefully they will add colab heros & ex moves to the store.

[@cuzinpete2713]

What about using gems on Fast Gains & character summons or Divination?

[@PayneBlade]

Fast gain sure. Gems on summons not really cause u get a lot of tokens from the events and div it depends but ya after 11 sss units then go bison sss

[@CoachUncfromBROOKLYN]

The Red soul core gems are needed after your fighter reaches level 60...

[@bingbavage9424]

Could you explain final showdown or do a video about it if you haven’t I’m still confused on how it works.

[@PayneBlade]

Hey bro I have twice. Just search super showdown or final showdown

[@chrysovalantisstylianos5074]

some times i refresh bountis for more gems and works pretty well 1 max 2 times !!

[@TheBigDeckClub]

I’m a simple man, I see percentage increases and buy.

[@daimonmau5097]

The price of gears on my guild shop is permanently decreased, do you know the cause? Yours cost each some 85.500 and on mine they all cost around 68.500. Must be some bonus that your guild achieves with time?

[@Aaron-zw1wb]

Use to get around 1700 gems daily from secret training… disappointing

[@stephengrenleski1972]

At what stage do I not need Breakstones anymore?

[@aznkether]

Honestly, I would still buy the Breakstones. Even after you go past the 240 cap, you will still eventually need more Breakstones to level up, so it's best to accumulate them, especially if they only cost Cash.

[@PayneBlade]

290 ish

[@PayneBlade]

U just get so many of them they still around an issue at 297 but if u can afford it. Money is so scarce now

[@Just_A_Name14]

I’m at level 296 and have 422k saved up I think I have enough saved up plus all the reward ones.

[@bon3342]

Boost stone kit for 3k gems in general shop is worth?

[@PayneBlade]

Nah u get them from events often

[@gafak47]

ive got a lot of diamonds and a lot of summoning tokens saved up 🤣

[@PayneBlade]

Keep at it!

[@gafak47]

@@PayneBlade i so wanna quit this game but I'm gonna do that once the content creators give up😅

[@PayneBlade]

Lol going down with the ship

[@thelastchoi6217]

Make sure to buy deez 🥜

[@HajinKazama]

Thanks for the video, I think I get a little but less than you every day, I'll try to see where I'm missing some. Btw how much guild currency do you get every day? I'm the only active person in mine and getting those succulent gears takes a while. Do you think joining an active guild is a must?
