Money Spent (and currency): 0

Coins Spent: 350 (1 for 2 on weapon bridge, as usual)

Battle Cubes: -100

Ruby/Teletraan Pulls: 3 cheeto alts, 1 bot and 2 weaps

Medals: monkey bot and alt plus 3 cheeto bots, all pulls around 100 medals or less

Liked: T3 just got a whole lot easier; it's as simple as powering through day 1 and maintaining rank in the 1800-2000 range using only hourlies to tag whales for the rest of the week. I also really like the R3-and-higher medals in a quality/quantity trade-off. Lucky R/A/W R6 is just as good as a T1 finish too.

Disliked: I've officially been demoted from T2 to T3 on a permanent basis (if the changes stick). T3 is now a vacation but T2 is too much of a cube drain for an insignificantly better reward. Massive cliff around 1500 or so between the haves and have-nots. Needing raiders to farm day 1 sucks but their ease of acquisition offsets this. Also, obligatory Beast Machines hate.

Other: Thought i won the lottery when I drew a ?? as first boss but without raiders it was a 50-cube job that I foolishly finished in a good-money-after-bad way. 300k point bounty vaulted me past all the R4 bosses so I missed out on their cube rewards. Oh well, live and learn.
