New Prayers for New Players
When it comes to starting a game that's already been around for over two years, there's always a sense of needing to catch up. The Official Discord Server is filled with players showing off their favourite Friends and the various alternate versions that have been released over the years. A Sanae wearing yellow, a Koishi decked in white...and is that a Reimu dressed in blue?
Friends are more than just pretty decorations that sit on your home screen, letting you know that their laps are for taking naps in. They're instrumental for clearing all sorts of seasonal and permanent content. For new players, it can be daunting to collect the right characters to form the dream team. Many Friends only see limited returns, and its entirely possible to not see your favourite Friend return for months.
For new players, some of these concerns are about to be addressed in a big way. Starting after maintenance on February 15, 2024, new players who create an account will have access to a new set of Start Dash Guaranteed Prayers that can be used to exchange for a guaranteed Ultra Festival, Relic and Epic Friend.
All these Prayers begin as soon as a player creates a new account, and will run for varying durations of time.
Read on for more details.
Start Dash Guaranteed Ultra Festival Prayer
The first of these prayers runs for 10 days, allowing players to perform a Prayer once a day.
When performing a Prayer, players are guaranteed to receive a Friend from the eligible list. This list includes all the following Friends that have been added to the game before May 2023:
- L1 Friends
