    normally i just stockpile mythril but i've done a few cash pulls, usually because i'm wasted and can't resist the urge lol. i did a couple gem pulls on the the most recent tactics 1 (i really, really wanted the lightning damage+ items; i got a couple kaiser shields out of it plus other stuff) , and one pull on burstfest 5 before that which netted SG and 1st fusion sword.

    Mostly stockpiled mythril, but there have been a few times (notably during the last SSB fest) that I have used accrued credit card rewards dollars that I don't normally ever touch for a few pulls just because.

    I'm F2P; I use my Google survey credits to buy more games. I stopped doing 100 gem pulls a year ago and have done maybe 6 of them all year.

    I could have bought an 11 pull and have 1000 gems left over, but all I got was this silly title.

    F2P here except the $8.99 in gems I bought for 100 pulls during Burst Breakfast for my birthday. I may use the $30 from the GTX970 class action suit to buy an 11 pull. Probably around Christmas time.

    I always do the 99 cent pull for every banner since I usually have enough from Google Rewards to cover it, and if not... i's only 99 cents. I've gotten lucky with quite a few of these.

    I never spend Mythril or cash on 1, 2, 3, 11, 14, and Tactics realms since I know those events will be few and far between for now (plus the characters are 'meh') - however, I still do the 99 cent pulls since they are too good to pass up, and a lot times I've gotten lucky.

    Other banners depend on what I have in that realm already, and the contents form the banner. The only time I've spent too much money on a banner (way too much) was the cloud SSB banner a LOOONG time ago, I never got it (until 3 months later when it popped up in a nightmare lucky banner - boy do I feel dumb) and I'm too embarrassed to say how much I spent on it. In the end, the regret reminds me that if I don't get the item I want within the first 12 pulls (1 99 cent pull, and 1 11 pull), I'm not getting it at all, and to stop.

    Since I went crazy trying for Clouds sword, my FF7 synergy is amazing (like 5 other 7 star relics for FF7 folks), so I typically only do the 99 cent pulls on 7 banners now, and maybe a 15 mythril if it benefits my A-Team which has both Zack and Aerith on it.

    for 5 6 8 9 and 10 banners, after the 99 cent pull I may do a single 11 pull IF there is something of value I can use (right now I lack mage synergy in FF8 so eagerly awaiting those banners), OR if there is something that will support my A-Team (which, in addition to Zach and Aerith, would be Squall, Vanielle, and Tyro), otherwise, I wont pull at all, or I'll only pull 15 mythril in an attempt to round out a realm or character.

    Half Price banners I typically PAY for, since they are rare, themed, a single pull (which wont let me go crazy - although I hear this is going away soon [god help me]), and not really that much cash, and Google Rewards helps out occasionally there too (there was one I used mythril on since I had like ~250 sitting on reserve).

    I usually go through my stockpile of Mythril and do some gem pulls on the side if I really want something.
    Since I'm still new to the game I had a bunch from the realm dungeons. However, I'm getting close to finally finishing those up.

    I do the $.99 pulls, but other than that it's all mythril.

    thanks for all the replies. was just curious. I feel like I don't have enough good SBs yet and I didn't know if my luck is just bad or I haven't been spending or what. I think I just haven't been playing long enough though, honestly. I save my mythril for the good banners and I'm pretty smart about it. I'm sure I'll pull something ridiculous before you know it (OSB pls)


    yesterday was 3 GPO, 1 GWO, and about 10k greens btw. pretty damn good. today I've got one MO so far but it's holy :/ meh
