The sad thing is they gave him 4star arcana stats and he is a knight so in v1 that already sets him behind the power curve.

Thought experiment. F2p might have had a lb3 Selene plus similar level Selene friends with the Pike equipped for the previous raid. Each demon raid has progressively gotten harder per data collecting on demon hp. It is unlikely f2p will be given another chance at lb3 5star mace demon event capable arcana.

Unless they scale back the difficulty because Sapuras has poison, how far can a f2p expect to get with a Melvina, Marga, Lyda/Dengal/Brewery, Zaren team? You would subject yourself to a rainbow mana team and be at the mercy of the Sega/gumi's idea of what demon weapon drops should be (some data collecting found it to be under 5%).

Combined with the 1% chance that extra demons come from chests and demon coin recruits, f2p should only expect to get two copies of demons. Which is very saddening. Be content with only using the next couple of demons as kitzuna and not mlb core team members.

This brings us to the reason why demon drop mechanics was changed in v2 for Japan. Please feel free to look into how it was changed, it was designed in an elegant and progressive fashion.
