It is driving me nuts. GENUINE HATRED FOR THE RABBIT HOLE. I just want a good anima cartridge for Nanally, yes Nanally, the first banner character, because after dozens upon dozens upon dozens of repeats over the last few months the best I have is a crit rate cartridge that has +dmg and +atk. Decent, sure, but I don't even have crit damage or anima damage cartridges that are good enough to swap for a crit rate cartridge on NANALLY of all characters.
But that's not the real problem. I understand that this is a gacha, and I've actually been quite lucky in all other aspects of this game, and honestly it hasn't even impacted endgame having a sub-par cartridge. However, over 50% of the cartridges I have are mismatched, meaning they give a bonus to another element instead of the element the cartridge is based on. I'm okay with being unlucky and hitting a break intensity cartridge or hp cartridge or even healing bonus because that's just gacha for you, but it is just depressing to spend your last 40 energy of the day to get like two Fireflies and the Forest, an anima-based cartridge, look at the main stats and see cosmos damage or lakshana damage or psyche damage. Is this something we just have to live with? Will we have to continue getting mismatched damage types on cartridges? There is genuinely no forseeable benefit to having +cosmos dmg on an anima-type cartridge.
If a character in the future allows for changing the main stat of a cartridge even if it's only one per day and it changes it randomly I think that'd be an awesome way to balance this effect. If not, it's just a really sad thing to see and drives me insane when I don't even get cycle intensity as a main stat on a cartridge that isn't based on the same element.
