Personally I would not spend any gems yet, 6000 will most likely get you 0-1 5* and you will be quite disappointed. Best bet is to get to 20k gems use the alchemy and so you are at 25K gems and blow all of them on a specific faction booster pack. If you have a star membership (3000 gems), use the monthly sign rewards (1185 gems) daily login rewards (300 gems), purchase the gems in the tournament (600 gems) you will easily be able to get around 5k gems a month.
*tournament gems are available from 10,20,50

If it's 5* you want, I'd say go for ultimas. 24k Gems will net you minimum 3 5* at each guaranteed draw. Boosters are luck of the draw mostly

Save for that alchemy. I always go for ultima, but I've never bought a booster so I can't speak to that. In general I avoid focusing on a specific faction because a) I think it makes the game less interesting and b) having a lot of options can be a big advantage. For example I think spikey bits 8+ is essential, Wight is essential, and a 4* human can be nice with oracles, swordmasters, and a melded royal dragon, + whatever else.

If you are already going human I'd go for human boosters. Can't really have too many Swordmasters starting out, the 4*s (Swordmaster, Techno-Chief and Cleric) all work really well together and you will probably get a great 5* as well.

Go for Ultima chests I rolled 24000 gems in boosters and got 1 5* death knight complete waste. I even talked to customer support about it bc I felt cheated and they told me to go cry elsewhere in their professional terms. So I will be a f2p player from now on hope that helps

Boosters are better hands down unless you know you are eventually going to spend 8000 gems on ultima and get the bonus 5*. If you are going to spend 8000 then the question becomes would you rather have on average:
Your choice of 1.2 stronger 5*s and a bunch of meldable 4*s (boosters) 2 random 5*s and a few random 4*s with no real chance for enough duplicates to meld (ultima)
As long as you hit the bonus on ultimas I wouldn't say one is strictly better than the other. It all depends where you are at and what you need. That's mostly for human boosters though. I'm not really a fan of the non faction ones at all unless you are really far along, have everything else you need and it's the only chance you have at a specific limited time 5*. In case this sounds biased 2 is a lot bigger than 1.2 to be fair.

human boosters hands down is your best option. Revive, retreat and disposal are possible to get which are all amazing. The only way ultimate chest is better than human booster is if they have an event to get paragon shards or any other CREATURE shards (maybe killer queen in the future). that way you can easily get a massive chunk of shards for paragon, blademaster on the other hand is twice as many shards needed which is why i say creatures and not heroes. This means 8000 gems should get you at least 1 5* card and around 10 paragon shards.

Have to agree with going with Human Booster. Regretfully, this is speaking from experience. Foolishly decided to go for Ultima due to the supposedly great boost to ultimate chest reward event. Fair warning, don't expect extra 5*. Should you decide to buy Ultima, keep your expectation low and you won't be disappointed. And calvinstate, I wish I've read your post before I wasted my gems. Lol.

I managed to get a fenhir and hyppo BEFORE my guaranteed 5* on 10th draw, undying will. So for 8000 gems, I got 3 killer cards, if this is worthless than what is not? I've spent about 5-6 k gems on human booster and only got a titania ( let's be honest here, Titania is no where near as good as hyppo, fenhir or undying will) and some nice 4*. This game is about luck, and I had ton with ultimate chest. Go with what you fell but I personally think you should buy booster once you have a good deck alleady set up.

Sick draw. I was happy with my Ash Beast and Spirit Siren for 8000. I think Titania might be the most underrated card in the game though. I expect to see a lot of duplicate (and not just 2) Phantom Liege and duplicate melded Graboid decks in the future.

She a + vs any deck with mutiple of the same card but she is not part of my main deck. It's all about luck. Spend on human booster and draw a great mystic, you will fell like a genius, draw nothing and you will feel like booster pack are worthless. Same goes for ultima chests.

Luck all evens out in the long term. The key is looking past short term results and feeling like a genius if your long term strategy beats the competition.

Ultima chests work out better than boosters the way I see it, unless you have a LOT of money to sink into boosters

All other variables aside, Ultima Chests are the only way to get a guaranteed 5*

Imo, you should stick to Boosters if you have limited gems to spend. The amount of 4 stars you get will allow you to evolve them, widen your deck strategy and focus on one Faction eaaily. Get Ultimas if you are indecently rich. The way I see it, unmelded 5 stars are only strong if they have any of the ff: Seals, Disposal, Recycle, Tanky Skill Combination. Anything else can be outplayed by melded 4 stars. Melding allows more flexible playstyles and a wider choice of cards (Guild Battles, Gauntlet, etc). Ultimas are only if you're content with random Faction 5 stars (Guaranteed 5 star does not mean game-changing 5 star all the time). We all have different luck though, so you decide. Marty had insane luck with Ultimas, I have decent luck with coupons, some get 2 GMs from 5 Boosters, etc.
Below 8k Gems: Boosters 8k Gems: Ultimas Above 10k, Below 16k: Ultimas OR Boosters 16k: Ultimas Above 16k: ALL Boosters

As most have mentioned, it's all down to luck. 8k gems for Ultima leave me with a Pit Dragon and some useless 4*s. I'd have been better off with a few meldable 4*s, even with no 5*, if I have gone for Human Booster. So imagining worst case scenarios for Ultima and Human Booster, I think Human Booster is the more practical choice in the long run. I was just so desperate for a 5* I failed to think clearly.

I still believe human boosters should always be your first option, then ultimate chest. After months of saving i had over 25K gems, blew it all on boosters got 2 great mystics, 1 archdeva, 1 balthazar, and a f*** ton of 4 stars to a point where i got 71 free coupons. The reason why i say human boosters is because it is hands down better then gem draws and those are the only two ways to get the skill revive which is a must for late game high level players who want to advance further in the game in almost every aspect. once you have revive then go for ultimate chests if you want as that is your next best option, but i recommend you do it during an ultimate chest event.
There comes a point where recycle will only get you so far and revive is a necessity.

Ultima gives recycle 2 though which you need late game too but yea you probably want revive first.

I have never spend a single gem on ultima chests. I usually save gems for a single shot at Limited time events with a specific card in it. It has the most 5* creatures in it and the chance of getting a 5* is for me the highest. I got Archdeva, Death Knight and 2 weeks ago I got Blossoms.
