How do you create a gacha system where a character and their signature weapon are featured on the same banner?, and there is no pity system? Hello? i just got back to back limit pull it's like 6 times and you know what? there is no single character banner and signature i got... just see how trash this game...ok i'm done with this trash, for remind for you guys that want to try this game.

Don't even bother. It's just not worth the time wasted. Edit: Was annoyed at an event boss. Lvl 60. My chars were lvl 80-90 mix. Boss goes 6 times in a row, buffs itself 3 times and then attacks 3 times. Then my nearly dead characters deal under 100 in damage when it's got like 1 mil hp. Also, purple chars fully ascended or whatever can't even compare to a base orange char. Purple char ultimate 5k dmg, orange char ultimate 50k dmg. Also, has pickup events with supposed preferential drop rates for specific char+weapon combo. I needed a steel ball weapon for the orange char and it was featured on that specific gacha pull. 0 steel ball drops in all my pulls, of any rarity. It's a complete joke and waste of time.
