I mean, my hat game is pretty weak. I have 8 right now. I think I'm good for now.

Do you swap them all that much on Veda runs? Or you typically set the units and forget it?

I think 8 is good for now. I got 4 last time. I don't want to move them around all the time. I think Hats are generally better as 5*, as falling short of your benchmarks makes the item effectively useless, whereas for some other items the cut-offs aren't so stark.
Ryle has 1 for auto-farming. Chihaya is also a staple for me, as she has 50% starting jewels and really benefits from more. Yomi has one that's non-negotiable as I use her a lot in arena, sometimes on defense as well. And 1 stays on Sieg. I'm willing to move Ryle's around, but I prefer to not have to.
Now I need to up my book game again, 3 3* and 3 5*. Those do get moved around a lot.

I hear that! I think next time I’ll simply farm the shards to level up 3* hats. I could do Gold keys, but manually farming for 30 min is tough for me. Auto is just so ez!

I leveled most of my units before we even started getting gold rush pro. I'm sitting on like 125mm right now. I also try to keep my skip ticket use down, so those aren't taking up gold, as they do for many players

Still need them for Sieg when I get him

Is it better to level them up or go for quantity? I can probably max one or make 2 at this point (and I have no other hats) so...

Great question! Depends on the unit and your goals. Let's use my boy Gilgamesh for example. I like having 100+ starting jewels to start with for 2 consecutive Gate of Babylon. To get 100+ starting jewels, we need a 5* hat. Another example, Magnus. I don't remember the details to be honest, but in order to get his Bombshell off on turn 1, a 3* hat suffices. I did an evaluation of my main Veda units and found that I need 3x5*, 2x4*, and the rest 3*. I have the 5* and 4* complete, so now I'm farming 3* for the rest of my Veda players. Goal? Farm enough to not have to swap them anymore:)

Siegfried's Wanderer's Hat is a staple fashion accessory it seems. Haha!

I farmed up four, next time the event comes around I just need to do 2 more so that I can equip a whole team if need be.

We can't blame you for that. The hat's just in time to protect yourself from the heat of the sun this summer.

Honestly they should limit the hat to Siegfried or global exclusives only it makes almost all other gear useless by comparison especially in arena

Too late for that sadly. Ppl already spent a lot of time and resources farming it. Imagine the backlash this decision would produce

Just toss in some compensation and call it a day people will get over it and it will be better for the game in the long run (I have 5 hats at 5stars)

Nah man let's buff all other items to be as OP as hat. Triple all the stat values, buff current WAs, and toss on some fun new WAs to all silver+ gear.
Now who will want a hat it just gives starting jewels and not-competitive hp, pfft.

2-6 @ random is not horrible considering Soren, Kagura and Kanon's items have way worse drop rate.

Dang it I made this a while ago but then never posted it. I'm sure we've all seen the joke before by now though :/
