Visiting your friends also helps them win different collection pieces in the rooms they play. There is an interaction between your talent, their talent, the room mode and the room programming. It is wise to have a friend list comprised of variety in terms of their talent. You need those talents from friends whom visit (or you hire). Yes, their talents help you when playing a room as described (higher CI drop rate, reduced energy, increased coins, etc...) but the other benefit is for improving the collection pieces that drop.

If a room seems to always give you the same collection piece over and over try hiring a friend. Move the scroll window (“you can win this scrolling window”)to show a CI or one of the passes at the end - not necessarily the one you want - instead of routinely just playing the room with the default first item showing in that scroll window. Friends whom Visit are good friends indeed. That is not to say “a gifter only” friend is bad or not as good. Gifters can save you the trouble of trying and be of quick support. But maybe this is the difference between giving a friend the fish 🐡 vs giving them the fishing pole 🎣. Sometimes a friend just needs the damn fish and hasn’t the brain power nor energy to learn something new. Sometimes the excitement and true beauty/mystery of SN lies in the challenge of learning how to be a better fisherman/woman. Gifting Visiting Both important 🙀 Both valued in a SN friend 😻
