The lucrative spread of rewards described here may lead a long-term player to wonder whether it's worthwhile to step away from the game from time to time to take advantage of the Returner Program, so it's worth taking some space to compare the Returner Program to continuous play to help players make this decision.
The lucrative spread of rewards described here may lead a long-term player to wonder whether it's worthwhile to step away from the game from time to time to take advantage of the Returner Program, so it's worth taking some space to compare the Returner Program to continuous play to help players make this decision.


The main draws in the revamped returner program are the chance to obtain several past limited cards, including the [[Love in the Air Event]] MR cards and the Year 1 limited SSRs. However, it should be noted that the returner program now requires significantly more time to activate -- 45 days as opposed to the previous 15 days -- and that all limited card rewards require spending {{Currency|S-Chip}}s or real money to obtain. It's also worth noting that we will likely see future reruns of these items for all players. While we can't guarantee global servers will get the same events as others did, no card has been left unattainable forever in CN/TW servers.
===Returners===
If a player makes maximum use of the returner program, the free rewards come to a total of:


In the meantime, during the 45 days a player waits offline in order to trigger the program, it's extremely likely that 1-2 major events with their own limited cards, as well as multiple minor events with badges, namecards, and other permanently missable rewards.
* {{Currency|S-Chip}} x920
* {{Currency|Tears of Themis}} x1
* {{Item icon|Energy Drink Basic Pack}} x15
* {{Currency|Stellin}} x455,000
* 1,965,000 EXP worth of card EXP items ({{Item icon|Oracle of Justice III}} x220, {{Item icon|Oracle of Justice IV}} x65)
* Chip II x110 (Includes {{Item icon|Logic Chip II}}, {{Item icon|Empathy Chip II}}, {{Item icon|Intuition Chip II}}, {{Item icon|Selection Chip II}})
* Chip III x40 (Includes {{Item icon|Logic Chip III}}, {{Item icon|Empathy Chip III}}, {{Item icon|Intuition Chip III}}, {{Item icon|Selection Chip III}})
* Impression II x60 (Includes {{Item icon|Logic Impression II}}, {{Item icon|Empathy Impression II}}, {{Item icon|Intuition Impression II}})
* Impression III x30 (Includes {{Item icon|Logic Impression III}}, {{Item icon|Empathy Impression III}}, {{Item icon|Intuition Impression III}})
* {{Currency|Friendship Badge}} x10,000
* {{Currency|Home Deco Voucher}} x500
* {{Item icon|Selection Star SR}} x1


However, it should be noted that the returner tasks '''require''' the player to draw 10 visions, meaning the total {{Currency|S-Chip}} income is '''negative''' 700 {{Currency|S-Chip}}s; while this is not a problem if a player wishes to draw from the current banners, the player will lose out on 300 {{Currency|S-Chip}}s (200 for finishing all 44 tasks, 100 for the visions task itself) should the choice be made to save instead.
===Continuing Players===
To compare, a free-to-play player who makes maximum use of daily and weekly tasks for the 14 days offline that would have been required to trigger the Returner Program will receive task rewards totaling:
* {{Currency|S-Chip}} x620 for cumulative task rewards
* {{Item icon|Energy Drink Basic Pack}} x30
* {{Currency|Stellin}} x170,000
* 1,752,000 EXP worth of Oracles of Justice ({{Item icon|Oracle of Justice III}} x140, {{Item icon|Oracle of Justice IV}} x16)
* {{Currency|Home Deco Voucher}} x840
Plus rewards for the gameplay required to complete the daily and weekly tasks:
* Up to {{Currency|S-Chip}} x800 for two weeks' Temple of Trials
* Up to {{Currency|Stellin}} x280,000 for 28x [[Business Consult V]]
* Up to 1,680,000 EXP worth of Oracles of Justice ({{Item icon|Oracle of Justice II}} x224, {{Item icon|Oracle of Justice III}} x112, {{Item icon|Oracle of Justice IV}} x56) for 28x [[Operational Assessment V]]
* 14x {{Item icon|Work Permit}} to boost either of the above as the player wishes
* At least 42 Anomaly Levels' rewards
* At least 70 Fieldwork Cases' and 10 Fieldwork Lawsuits' rewards
* 14 days' {{Currency|Friendship Badge}}s; at the Level 1 maximum of 50 friends, a player could earn {{Currency|Friendship Badge}} x21,000
===Conclusion===
While we should embrace the Returner Program and the returning attorneys who make use of it, the rewards only help to close the gap between those who take a break and those who play continuously, and it's unlikely to be worthwhile to intentionally take breaks to trigger the Returner Program.
