Gacha Chat

[glossy latch]

The final boss, who is doable

[slow raft]

[glossy latch]

And one of the two possible second elites, who is not

[slow raft]

I mean the boss is gepard, isnt he?

He doesnt really do anything

[glossy latch]

Yeah, but he has 3 phases

Makes him midly challenging

[slow raft]

Im just gonna do it once i hit the next equilibrium

[glossy latch]

But Clara with Elation clears most enemies

[slow raft]

I make it a habit not to make gachas more difficult than necessary for myself

<-enjoyes cc

[glossy latch]

I cannot overstate how busted Elation blessings are

[slow raft]

<-reset for minturning railway

[slow raft]

Oh, i know, you cannot fathom how much "time to twirl" ive heard

[glossy latch]

Uh

I dont know what character that is

[slow raft]

Herta

[glossy latch]

Ah

I dont use her

Right now Im using March and Clara, Serval and Seele (because I feel obligated to)

So far Seele has been alright tbh

I think she needs some upgrades to be busted

[slow raft]

Im using mc(mostly destruction, switched recently), herta, the 5 star healer and the mahjong girl

Herta just clears so many enemies so fast its great

[long tree]

5 star healer
Might as well be dragging a whole ass hospital with you, she just doesn't let you die

[slow raft]

I assure you, i am quite capable of dying still

[idle grove]

Healers are revolutionary in this game honestly

[slow raft]

Yeah

[long tree]

Technique deficit

[idle grove]

got e2 natasha and I just never stop getting the heals

[slow raft]

I got a few nat doubles from my seele pulls

[idle grove]

gets hit to 1hp
fully heals herself
refuses to elaborate

[slow raft]

Just like pela

[long tree]

I got a lot of mole

Which sucks but whatever

[slow raft]

I got a few hooks too

Im not gonna use pela or the sword dude in the near future tho, i already have an ice dps

[long tree]

Got enough to guarantee a 5 star saved up so I'm hoping jings banner doesn't kill me

[idle grove]

My team rn is literally just like

regular mc, march, natasha, then whoever else has adv damage

[slow raft]

I have 3 units you get for free and one guaranteed 5 star in my team, call me f2p man

Basically dr silvergun at this point

[idle grove]

Might replace march with herta at some point, she looks like she might be better for ice damage

[slow raft]

Personally dont like march 7th, even though the targeted shield and the freeze are nice

[idle grove]

The shield is alright but her normal damage feels kinda mid

[slow raft]

Yeah

[idle grove]

so maybe herta is coming out of hibernation

[slow raft]

Helps that you get free copies

[idle grove]

yee

also how hard is it to make your characters not feel like twigs

after 30 do they start getting good hp bonuses or is it a big gear thing?

[glossy latch]

Light Cones and Relics give a decent amount of survivability

[glossy latch]

True!

[summer hornet]

you just have to imagine yourself as the iron giant

[slow raft]

Honse done

Oh right, i should buy the onceler skin for lee

[copper steppe]

the what

[slow raft]

The magician skin

[copper steppe]

oh thank god

i thought you meant literally lol

[slow raft]

Ive been told that it looks like the onceler

[slow raft]

And i say that that it is for exacly this reaction

[copper steppe]

he looks like arlekino

[summer hornet]

imagine being able to m3 Mylnar... must be nice ;_;

[slow raft]

Sure is

Dwai tho, i have had a login streak dince day one, i have access to just a few more resources than the average ak player

[glossy latch]

Also man

I am mad that I still dont have Sampo

I really wanna build Sampo

[slow raft]

Getting 4stars in gachas is always a pain

But you just have to wait for him to be in the shop ig

[dull bridge]

LETS GOOOOOOO

I AM SO HYPEEEEEEEE

I GOT HIS SIG WEAPON

this is the only sad thing

i superimposed this already

:(

lmao

[slow raft]

me when i see a bug

[dull bridge]

he just hit a 27k crit

that's insane

[dull bridge]

holy shit

anyone else seen this crazy thing

[glossy latch]

What does it do

[dull bridge]

lets you make a custom 5* relic

they need to add this tog e shin

genshin

[slow raft]

btw, for anyone on eu, my uid is 701477458

[idle grove]

oh pog

700617478 is mine

..I have no idea how to beat this trial

[glossy latch]

Ill check what mine is later

[idle grove]

I can beat one enemy but I have no hp to fight the other

[long tree]

Fellas, I have 70 in pity, I have 40 pulls on the draw and I am unsure if I'm gonna last the 16 days it's gonna take for Jing to get here

[summer hornet]

Wait do you need to be on the same server to add friends?

[idle grove]

yeah probably

[old galleon]

yes

for example, if you're in american server and try to add guy, it will give you a 'player not found' prompt

[summer hornet]

Ovven, are you in NA or EU?

[old galleon]

||been seeing a bunch of people complain the kafka story fight is too hard, but i just did it and had basically no trouble with it||

||fire mc can taunt her domination nonsense and natasha can cleanse it, then just bring 2 dps to clean up||

[slow raft]

||||

[old galleon]

||that is literally the name of the status condition||

[slow raft]

yes

|| also yeah i did that fight in one go||

[old galleon]

go to horny jail, do not pass go, do not collect $200

[long tree]

Was a very easy fight yeah

Now world 5 boss Kafka is a different story

[old galleon]

good thing we don't talk about simulated universe bosses before we're ready for them : ^)

but it's like, i see a bunch of people in various other parts of the community complain about story fights like that

being too hard or whatever

and it's like, if you've gotten that far, you have the tools to handle her

just keep up with your traces and shit

[long tree]

Legit got up to her in world 5, beat the first phase easy... Then phase 2 came along and one shot nadaiha through gerpard shield

a monument to your suffering

[long tree]

Got a dupe seele cause why not, and it's insane how much it helps

15% extra crit rate which applied on every hit of their skill

[old galleon]

iirc e2 is her most impactful one

but mine's e0 and still doing just fine

[glossy latch]

EU

As you might remember from when we tried to play BBTAG

[summer hornet]

Oh right- yeah that was a disaster

[old galleon]

just got a praise of high morals for vandalizing public property, so that's a thing

[glossy latch]

UID is the one at the bottom right right?

Err bottom left

In the PC version

701451319

[old galleon]

yes

[digital marlin]

Aight you got me intrested

[old galleon]

one of us

[dull bridge]

i did it

;-;

[astral drift]

it was a great chapter

different kind of great compared to LB6

[summer hornet]

||that's not actually Romani though, is it? Just Goetia in Roman's body||

[dull bridge]

bro

[astral drift]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[long tree]

Bruh the trailblazer is unhinged

Should probably be in a psychiatric ward but here they are, romancing trash cans and begging people to arrest them

[slow raft]

im the trash man

[dull bridge]

^

[summer hornet]

You can drink coffee in the herta space station and get knocked out

[long tree]

I'm going to stop the stellarons, with the power of love, friendship, and this baseball bat I found

[long tree]

To be fair it is drugged

[dull bridge]

no

now we got a sword

made by an aeon

sorry epask

speak

[slow raft]

there are so many ways to pass out

like when you hide for 3 days in hide and seek

(decisive victory)

[copper steppe]

is star rail actually good

[dull bridge]

u would have to try for yourself

i enjoy it a lot

[summer hornet]

Surprisingly, I think so

[dull bridge]

WE CAN DO ITTT

[summer hornet]

But yeah, mileage may vary

[copper steppe]

in good i mean not just waifu/husbando bait

[dull bridge]

its a good game

yes

[slow raft]

i dont think theres anyone here so far that played the game that had a negative experience

[copper steppe]

some is acceptable

also do i need to play/watch the other honkai stuff to understand what’s going on

[dull bridge]

no

[summer hornet]

You don't need to, but apparently there's a LOT of references

[dull bridge]

ive never played any honkai games

and i understand the story perfectly well

[copper steppe]

i reckon that makes sense

[long tree]

There's also like

2 genshin references if you're familar with that game

[dull bridge]

yeah

sadly

:(

i mean tbf

the game feels like a reskin of genshin

with mechanics

outside of combat and exploration

[copper steppe]

i have not and will never play genshin

[glossy latch]

I think its decent

The combat is the weakest part

[dull bridge]

honestly

[glossy latch]

But even it isnt as boring as I first thought

[dull bridge]

imo

combat is one of the better parts

for me

[idle grove]

I quite like the combat because I'm gachabrained

[copper steppe]

i’ll consider trying it when i have the time

[glossy latch]

Im a long-time JRPG player, for me its a tad too basic

[long tree]

You win or lose the combat before you start the fight basically

Not a lot of strategy in the fight itself

[copper steppe]

well no jrpg can beat gigachad smt press turn system

so im fine with any type of gameplay as long as its decent

[dull bridge]

i mean

theres some

i just like it more than genshin just cause

its not spam buttons

which genshin can feel like sometimes

[glossy latch]

I do wonder why theres not more than 1 skill to use

[long tree]

I mean that's what I do and I've never lost a fight I wasn't under leveled for

[glossy latch]

Or skills that use more than 1 point

[dull bridge]

ig

idk

i think

idk

[copper steppe]

press buttons (possible ishizu tear reference)

[long tree]

I'm not a huge fan of the fact that characters skills are tied to the same action point bar

But I get it

[glossy latch]

That I actually like

I just wish there was more to it

[versed pawn]

2 weeks

[dull bridge]

oh

kinda related to that

anyone know if they have said

[copper steppe]

on another note i heard that the game has cool tunes so thats a plus

[dull bridge]

when remainder of storyt quest will drop

[dull bridge]

its by hoyoverse

all hoyoverse games have insane music

[copper steppe]

gacha games making amazing music for no reason

its crazy lol

[old galleon]

i've heard nothing about main story update

[dull bridge]

ok

[old galleon]

game's been out a week, give it time

[dull bridge]

if i were to guess

[glossy latch]

Oh right ,that game exists

[dull bridge]

i assume it will happen when we get yang jun

or whatever his name is

cause that will be a banner update

[copper steppe]

i only know pgr by the music and maxor

[long tree]

Honestly I wouldn't expect new content until 1.2 minimum

[dull bridge]

really

ok

[summer hornet]

Beast Vitch OST in FGO, Dominion Black Dragon in GBF, whatever that Zhongli ost for genshin is that I keep seeing on YouTube

[glossy latch]

That would be unfortunate

[versed pawn]

A lot of people do

[long tree]

We are the lights and case I from dragalia lost

[summer hornet]

Obligatory o7 for Dragalia

[dull bridge]

waitr

[copper steppe]

rip

[dull bridge]

nvm

[copper steppe]

no more cleo

[long tree]

Me who spent 3 years fully understanding the lore

[glossy latch]

I did try PGR

But I hated the gacha systems and didnt care enough otherwise

[dull bridge]

genshin is scara theme

[copper steppe]

oh yeah blue archive also has some bangers

[versed pawn]

I think after the nanami mech release the patch after we get the radiant marcher boss fight which has a nice soundtrack

[copper steppe]

with whatever crackhead that made unwelcome school

[dull bridge]

alright

comming up on kafka boss

lets see how i can do

[astral drift]

many tracks in nikke

[dull bridge]

hmm

do i keep yanqwing

or use dan heng

[versed pawn]

And I get my mecha on mecha battle

[summer hornet]

[versed pawn]

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=dCgFjO2ZOY0&pp=ygUPUmFkaWFudCBtYXJjaGVy

I think we also get a patch where u get to play a few missions as the boss which is kinda cool

[summer hornet]

Oh you're talking Punishing Gray Raven, not Star Rail

[long tree]

Closest honkai has to mechs so far is himekos space cannon

[dull bridge]

alright

phase 2 basically down

[versed pawn]

Nanami is like unique in that regard only unit that actually rides a mech everything else is like normal

[dull bridge]

fuck

[versed pawn]

Tho kinda lucked when I started pgr my first s rank pull seems like to be the best lightning unit in the game

Ans she fun

[dull bridge]

I

AM

GOING TO CRY

WATCH THIS

damnit

file to bnig

give a sec

will upload to yu

yt

https://youtu.be/kEfwreFSbVw

i am so mad rn

like

i should not have lost thattttt

if i clicked faster i would have won no?

[old galleon]

be me
log in granblue for the first time since before u&f started
see there are free rolls
do it, get new ssr
jamil
was almost legendary

[zealous kite]

Yours was better than mine

[dull bridge]

not to sound cocky

this felt way too easy

like

in the boss fight i never once thought i was in danger of losing

none of my people ever dropped below 2k health

blessings of abundance

are fucking insane

[glossy latch]

How do I trigger Claras companion quest?

[dull bridge]

just wait

its not smt you can trigger

[slow raft]

i got a message at equilibrium level 2

[dull bridge]

they are just random

iirc

why is this so good

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PVqezHKDPC4&ab_channel=Pom-Pom’sWorkstation

[glossy latch]

Ah, I see

[dull bridge]

ugh

so much grinding

[old galleon]

i'd call it honkai: grind rail but then it'd sound like a knockoff of tony hawk's pro skater

[dull bridge]

tbf tho

tbfff

grinding is very easy

because of auto

and supports

[old galleon]

supports are nice because i can just use other people's seele when i'm still behind on the curve

(even if mine would still suffice)

[dull bridge]

i mean

i only have 1 leveled dps

so its nice to just grab another

in replace of nat

when i just need damage damage damasge

turns out

this planner dosent auto craft

which is weird

[glossy latch]

Where can you use other peoples characters anyway?

[dull bridge]

god

[old galleon]

echo of war and calyx for content i've actually run

[dull bridge]

most things that require trailblaze power

[old galleon]

potentially other traiblaze power stuff as well

[dull bridge]

also the domains

relic domains

[dull bridge]

alright

what could be a good team

i can build anyone nessecary

hmm

what about mc welt nat hook

lets try!

[dull bridge]

is this new

?

[old galleon]

that prompt has been on that screen as long as i remember

[dull bridge]

lmao

[old galleon]

there's 30 of those things?

it took me forever to finally figure out exactly what i'm doing with them

[dull bridge]

well

there are 15

and than they make "new ones"

and so you redo all of them

also ppl think this will be avalible to buy

from ppl

who get it

its from the world tour

[dull bridge]

tommorow

[old galleon]

completed silvermane challenge 3, gunning straight for gepard, and cleared all challenges, despite losing seele at 50%

not sure how i managed that

[summer hornet]

Went back to progress in the main story for Belobog, ||and I would just like to say that I KNEW we were gonna deal with some Undercity-Overcity civil war shenanigans as soon as they mentioned an underground mining society, it just fell into place too easily||

Also, when are you able to ascend your characters? I’m doing fine for the moment with everyone at level 20 but still

[idle grove]

you should be able to ascend from 20 just fine

as long as they're max level

[old galleon]

you also need trailblaze level

for first ascension i think it's tb level 15

[idle grove]

is there any way to see how many rolls you've done on a banner

[old galleon]

yes, although you have to count manually

[old galleon]

on a banner, click 'view details', then go into the records tab

each page shows 5 individual rolls

i'm just lucky i got seele relatively early

rn i'm on 21 special warp tickets and over 7k jade

not sure what i'm gonna roll on next

aside from just using the regular tickets as they come

[idle grove]

oh sure

feel like I'm going to run out of steam before I end up getting her tbh

done 4 10 rolls then I think

[idle grove]

BASED

[dull bridge]

yeah

i really liked this

[slow raft]

Alright, 110 pulls on the seele banner, prayge that i dont need much more

[long tree]

You need about 40 more so good luck, it's doable

[slow raft]

Yeah im hoping that i need less than that

Im also close to pity on the standard banner

At the very latest ill have both of those done in a week

Btw, actually, i could try to see if the 74 theory is correct

Cause im at 71 and have 3 tickets

[long tree]

It is, mathematically it should be where you get your five star, but it could be a little more

[slow raft]

I got a 4 star, which is almost as good

Mahjon girl dupe is great tho, so ill take it

Need two more tho to get the best passive

[ebon quartz]

What is with this game and trash cans LOL

[slow raft]

I am the trash man

Love it when the mc is just a gremlin

[idle grove]

oh no we've had licia suckered into gacha too

[ebon quartz]

I like having the agency here to be polite to strangers, but an absolute gremlin to your friends.

Just like me irl :D

[slow raft]

I have also befriended the trashcans

And recycled one of my praise of high morals

[copper steppe]

the bad civ has reached licia

Clearly you missed my FGO days

Oh I can be flirty okay

[slow raft]

Herta is such a cool character frfr

Also HECK YEAH, WELCOME TO STAR RAIL! What's your friend code (are you in the America server?)

[glossy latch]

Oh no, Licia has fallen into gacha hell

[dull bridge]

are you america?

[summer hornet]

[dull bridge]

wait friend me

601510123

[summer hornet]

Will do!

Also

[summer hornet]

Licia was already fully submerged into the Nasuverse when I was a wee babe, being blown away by F/SN: Unlimited Blade Works

[slow raft]

idk why, but this ascension kinda reminds me of kriem

[ebon quartz]

Yeah on American.

I think my code is 602385974

[summer hornet]

your name is Miya, right?

[idle grove]

Me guy and ovven holding down the european server

[slow raft]

🫡

[glossy latch]

Is the european server trying to run? Why are we holding it down

[dull bridge]

yup

[summer hornet]

sent to both of you guys! My name's Reginald954, pfp is a trash can

...also gosh darnit Ovven

[glossy latch]

[summer hornet]

MADE IT TO LEVEL 15

time to do some Ascensions

[dull bridge]

nice

!!

[summer hornet]

okay yeah, the traces (skill tree) system takes some time, doesn't it

[copper steppe]

||siegfried looking ass||

[summer hornet]

||lmao no offense but Siegfried wishes he could look as cool as her||

[copper steppe]

lol

[ebon quartz]

YOOOO????

[summer hornet]

AYYYYYYY

[dull bridge]

lucky

:(

[ebon quartz]

Oh and I got a second Natasha on that same pull.

[dull bridge]

i would like 1 more nat

i have her e5

[glossy latch]

Nice

That character is quite busted

Anyway I would love if the game would give me Sampo already >:[

[ebon quartz]

Yeah honestly I have the team I want now

[glossy latch]

Whats the team?

[astral drift]

i'm liking her voice

reminds me of laplus

[ebon quartz]

Trailblazer, Natasha, March, and Seele.

I might replace March if I find another character I like and can protecc

[summer hornet]

ayyyy

have you looked at Clara yet?

[ebon quartz]

Oh I put Seele as my support if anyone wants to use her.

And nope!

[glossy latch]

Clara is great

https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/houkai-star-rail/images/c/c2/Character_Clara_Splash_Art.png/revision/latest?cb=20230216231958

[summer hornet]

She's slower than Seele, and due to being the same element as Trailblazer is easier to slot in over MC, but her whole design and playstyle is like Illya and Herc but if Herc was the Iron Giant

[glossy latch]

Big robot protecc

Also really good with March actually

[ebon quartz]

See I tend not to like designs that are just "little girl"

[glossy latch]

Anytime she is attacked, Svarog (the robot) fires back

[long tree]

Also has highest aoe DPS provided they're attacked twice

[glossy latch]

And her ult increases the damage of it and makes it splash damage

[glossy latch]

Honestly Svarog is most of the design lmao

[long tree]

Seele not allowed to fight with her wife sadge

[glossy latch]

Every attack is just Svarog doing something, Clara is more or less just there for framing

[summer hornet]

...wait

it's Bedman? !

[long tree]

?

[glossy latch]

Basically yes

Bedman? is a GG strive character

Delilah is there, but the bed is what does all the combat

[summer hornet]

the bed is the remnants of her dead brother's soul or something like that iirc

[summer hornet]

but yeah, understandable

You've got a pretty baller setup already

[digital marlin]

Or a glitch in system

[dull bridge]

god

clara is so cool

clara fire mc march nat sounds legitimately insane

[long tree]

Ehh fire MC will draw aggro away from clara

[dull bridge]

ah

fair

[long tree]

Since the classes naturally have different aggro percentages in addition to the fire MCs taunt

[ebon quartz]

Oh my god

So I didn't realize it but WOW you can kill something with Seele, get an extra turn, then use her ult later in the turn to kill something and gain another turn.

[summer hornet]

yeppppppp

Argor was calling her "best AOE unit in the game" a few days ago lol

[long tree]

Honestly he's probably not wrong, especially with two dupes

That speed boost fucks

[ebon quartz]

Jesus

[idle grove]

5* dupes...

didn't even know you could get 5*s :^)

[ebon quartz]

Yeah debating if I want to try pulling for more

[dull bridge]

HOLY SHIT

this dudes seele is insane

[long tree]

two speed boost stacks

Eyep sounds about right

[dull bridge]

i just need better relics

i would love to get his eidolns

but like

ugh

its impossible

[ebon quartz]

Hey so speaking of Clara

[slow raft]

i just realized that i am in fact not close to pity on the standard banner

cause i got a 5 star light cone somewhere along the way

😔

[glossy latch]

Damn, you got the same exact 5* as me

Clara is a lot of fun tbh, and also helps a lot with simulated universe

[dull bridge]

same

[ebon quartz]

Yeah but Seela

[glossy latch]

Seele

Also Seele is good, but in simulated universe Im not sure she is as good

[slow raft]

that is actually closer to how they pronounce it

[glossy latch]

Clara can just solo worlds tbh

[glossy latch]

Yes, but theyre incorrect

[slow raft]

claras followup attack just seems way to easy to trigger, if im reading it correctly

[glossy latch]

If she is attacked, or with ult up, if any of your party are attacked

Yeah

Add Elation blessings

And you get the idea

[slow raft]

like, compare "getting hit" to himikos "break enemies 3 times"

[glossy latch]

Yeah

Granted, Himekos is baseline AoE

And arguably better against small fry

[slow raft]

yeah yeah, different niches and all

[glossy latch]

Anyway I wonder if I should save up for Kafka now

Because apparently she is good with DoTs

And I really wanna make a Sampo team

[dull bridge]

honestly

no one i rly wanna save for

i love my team a lot

kinda just wanna burn pulls for chance of getting xq eidlons

i mean yq

[glossy latch]

I also kinda wanna save up for ||Sampos inevitable 5* form||

[slow raft]

oh wait, her name is himeko
sry, i have terminal fgo stall brain

[dull bridge]

honestly

i really wanna save for luocha

he seems rly cool

and i love imaginary

[ebon quartz]

I think I need to balance the team a bit more, seems to suck if I don't have a weakness to hit.

Oh wait I know who I need to get I think

Tingun to maximize Seele damage

[long tree]

Licia get seeles wife I believe in you

[dull bridge]

jotlico have you cleared w5 yet?

you had said it was tough begore

curious if you were able to do it

[mystic python]

Counterargument:

[long tree]

Haven't done so yet, could probably get it done once I got my relics up and had a better run

[dull bridge]

ok

[dull bridge]

^ clara is so funny when messaging

[old galleon]

i can't think of any dedicated aoe unit who can do what seele does, so

[slow raft]

finally, my dumpster diving has born fruit

[long tree]

The quantum typing alone makes her amazing

[old galleon]

lots of things weak to quantum, yes

anyway, i'll go add licia later

[glossy latch]

Where is this

[slow raft]

around here(on the lower floor)

there should be a vase, hit it to start the conversation

[glossy latch]

Ah, on the new world I havent explored yet

[dull bridge]

holy shut

mad respect

[glossy latch]

... how

I didnt even know gold relics were possible

[long tree]

They must be level 40 already, it gets you legendary artifacts

[slow raft]

You get atleast one gold relic somewhere in the uh

The thing where you have 4 missions fir each level

[old galleon]

pretty sure you can also get them from runs of sufficiently high leveled simulated universe

but them having the whole set is probably grinding for it specifically

(or even half the set)

[long tree]

You can, though it'll only be of world's 5 and higher, which have a character level recommendation of 60, which is only achievable at trailblazer level 40

[dull bridge]

they have full sets for clara and seele

and the subs are like not bad

[slow raft]

[summer hornet]

did you get like 3 5-stars in the span of a single day?!

[idle grove]

[old galleon]

sent request

[long tree]

I hid in a wardrobe and scared the hell out of a room service employee, received a praise of high morals for it

Oh also a "the shining" reference, nice

[dull bridge]

what is the shining?

[old galleon]

a movie

[dull bridge]

ok

[old galleon]

you might be more familiar with the here's johnny bit

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d-ABIIZV3vA

[long tree]

Managed to stop a depressed crane robot from ending it's life

So that was something

[old galleon]

did you get a praise of high morals out of it

[dull bridge]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EYKg5atxqhA&ab_channel=Deyash

goddamn

why is this so good

[long tree]

Nah I gotta talk to someone else about a reward

[dull bridge]

if the world 1 boss theme is this good

[long tree]

I'm now on a quest to find 6 other cranes each representing different deadly sins

holy shit

blessings of abundance are insane

you legitimately cannot die

as proven by this

[old galleon]

hey, have you ever hit someone with a guitar case before?

shit hurts

[glossy latch]

Especially a guitar-case that big

[slow raft]

me when i fuck around and find out

[dull bridge]

YES!!!!

[ebon quartz]

Oh hey

[dull bridge]

yoo

lucky fuck

i rly want er

her

[ebon quartz]

Okay yeah I have my team xD

[dull bridge]

shes one of the best damage amps

rn

[glossy latch]

wait isnt this one you get for free?

[dull bridge]

no

[ebon quartz]

No?

[glossy latch]

Huh

Cuz I thought she was a free one

[dull bridge]

you get

[glossy latch]

I also have her

[dull bridge]

her for free

[glossy latch]

I have all but 3 4*s

Unfortunately one of those 3 is the one I really want

[dull bridge]

i have all but 2

and i really want both

-_-

[glossy latch]

Im missing Arland, Shushang and Sampo

I want Sampo

[dull bridge]

im missing

sampo, and tingyun

i want sampo for a fun dot team

and tingyun simply because shes the best "f2p" damage support

i am so fucking tempted

to just waste all my jade

and just pull

[glossy latch]

Sampo is also a character you want Eidolons for >.>

[ebon quartz]

Yeah I think I'm done pulling lol

[glossy latch]

I need like 3 more regular tickets to pull and maybe get Sampo

[ebon quartz]

I don't get what the "recover 50 energy" thing is about though...?

[glossy latch]

Whats annoying is that I have 2 characters at Eidolon 2 before I got one Sampo

[dull bridge]

on who

tingyun?

[glossy latch]

Your ultimate uses energy

[long tree]

It gives you more energy to charge your ult

[glossy latch]

It basically fills up their ult meter

[ebon quartz]

oooooooooooh

Gotcha gotcha

[glossy latch]

Not to full but a good amount

Well, depends on the character

[ebon quartz]

Yeah

[long tree]

It's pretty much half usually

[ebon quartz]

I mean she seems busted with Seele

Like adding jet fuel to a fire.

[dull bridge]

yup

:/

thats exactly what she does

[glossy latch]

A little under for most, a little over for a couple, about a third for the other quantum character

For some reason her ult takes 140

[dull bridge]

mainly cause her ulty

is too good

[glossy latch]

Do we know who the next banner is?

[dull bridge]

yeah

[glossy latch]

Is it Jing or Kafka?

[dull bridge]

jing

[glossy latch]

Mmh

The one I dont care for

[long tree]

I was simping hard for him

Then I saw the in game model

It is awful

[dull bridge]

yeah

;/

[glossy latch]

Is it?

He looks like his splash art to me

[long tree]

He just looks like a bootleg action figure

The resemblance is there but something's clearly off

[idle grove]

2 more 10 rolls of 1 4*

what gacha gods have I been cursed by

[glossy latch]

I am so close

To just caching in Herta currency for regular passes

[dull bridge]

FUCK YEAH

COMMERE SAMPO

[glossy latch]

Nvm I forgot that I hadnt cached out the stores yet

Somehow I am missing currency for the space station?

... nvm I got a 5* I think

And it was a Lightcone >.>

But hey I got Tingyun eidolon 1 ig

[dull bridge]

god

i just fucking want tingyun

[glossy latch]

And I want Sampo

[dull bridge]

trade

[summer hornet]

Personally, I'd like Gepard myself

[dull bridge]

yanqing

[glossy latch]

It couldve at least been Claras light cone smh

Are 5* cones even good without superimpose?

[dull bridge]

idk

[old galleon]

don't be too surprised if we get her for free later, but right now, she's not

freebies currently accessible are

one copy each of march 7th, dan heng, asta, serval, natasha, qingque

herta plus 3 of her eidolons

and mc goes without saying, although apparently not all of their preservation eidolons are available yet

[glossy latch]

Its apparently 1 off

Also, 5* light cones, are they even good without superimposition?

[old galleon]

should be

[dull bridge]

only 1 eidlon missing

[old galleon]

would probably depend on the light cone

[glossy latch]

Still mad I got (I think) Himekos signature

[old galleon]

but if the base effect is good, then just use it

[glossy latch]

Yeah its Himekos signature

Whom I do not have

Also man, still no Sampo >.>

[old galleon]

night on the milky way?

[glossy latch]

Aye

[slow raft]

I got the same one

[glossy latch]

Huh

[dull bridge]

whats a good sampo team

welt sampo

what should my last 2 slots be

[glossy latch]

Also Tingyun Eidolon 1 before 1 Sampo is rough

Ive seen Hook and Serval used

[dull bridge]

smt like this?

[slow raft]

Looks about right

[glossy latch]

Yeah

Maybe Serval over Hook, but Ive seen both

[slow raft]

I should prolly level my nat

[dull bridge]

my hook is higher level

[slow raft]

Need that debuff cleanse frfr

[dull bridge]

nat best healer

better than bailu

not even joking

[slow raft]

Yeah, it seems like it

[dull bridge]

everyones like

omg omg balu broken

but no one understands how powerful cleanse is

[glossy latch]

Huh, Welt is the only 5* left I care about

The rest are kinda meh

Maybe Bronya

[dull bridge]

yeha

bronya

is the one i want rn

[slow raft]

Btw, does your pity count carry over from banner to banner or just the "after you miss one coinflip the next ones guaranteed"

[dull bridge]

pity carrys over

where do i test this team

🤔

[slow raft]

Might stop pulling for seele, Jing yuan seems neat

[glossy latch]

I guess Ill hope to get Sampo and save up for Kafka

My team will be quite Kafka-esque

[dull bridge]

honestly

im just trying to get tingyaung

like

dsbgkd

i just wanna have a busted yanqing

[ebon quartz]

Big numbies

[dull bridge]

yay

[glossy latch]

Is there any reason to not use Trend of the Universal Market for the fire trailblazer?

[dull bridge]

huh

what is trend of the universal market

a lgiht cone?

this is what i wanna buiild

;-;

but im missing 2 peeps

:(

[glossy latch]

Yeah its a Lightcone

When attacked your burn enemies, doing a % of your DEF as a DoT

[dull bridge]

sure

that works

imo best one rn is laundaus choice

which is only a 4 so u might have

SAMPO E1

BEFORE A FUCKING TINGYUN

FUCK THISD GAME DUDE

[glossy latch]

But I dotn want tankiness

I want more damage

[dull bridge]

OH MY FUCKING GOD

I GOT BAILU

I DONT FUCKING WANT BAILU

I FUCKING WANT TINGYUN

im mad rn

[glossy latch]

H-how did you have more to pull

[dull bridge]

huh

i saved so much

i just burnt it all

cause i want a fucking tingyun

halfway to a bronya btw

[glossy latch]

Oh we have leaks for future characters

Spoiler most of them have the same face and arent interesting

[dull bridge]

huh

which ones

[glossy latch]

Idk their names

But theyre not the ones we already know of like Kafka and Blade

[dull bridge]

i know there is lauchou

[glossy latch]

I will say, there is one thats interesting

[dull bridge]

loucho

[glossy latch]

||Screwllum||

[dull bridge]

wait

wait

where tf u find those leaks

i wanna seeee

plz

[glossy latch]

You can just google it

Im not gonna post it here just to make sure no one is spoiled

(There might be a spoiler-ish in one of them)

(Well, future spoiler)

[ebon quartz]

Okay so current team

... I just cheated to beat a kid at rock, paper, scissors.

[summer hornet]

Ovven, just DM me the leaks

[old galleon]

best fire mc light cone atm is probably the herta shop one

the others mentioned aren't bad tho

https://honkai.gg/lightcones/texture-of-memories

this thing

[dull bridge]

no

well

ig

but imo landau just so good

for fire mc

damn

i need 150 wishes

thats 24000 primos

;-;

sorry stellar jhade

[ebon quartz]

Why are all these characters just little girls lol

[dull bridge]

ughhhh

i rly need tinyaung

like i would like bronya

but tingyang is needed

:(

[summer hornet]

The cool guys are all locked behind 5*... Except Sampo, because he's sus, and Dan Heng, because he's part of the Main Team

[dull bridge]

arlan is cool

:(

[summer hornet]

Oh true

I'm sorry, Arlan

[dull bridge]

this peice is so good

but its the wrong set

😭

[digital marlin]

wtf are you doing here i thought you hated Gacha

[ebon quartz]

Does NOBODY remember my FGO days???

[digital marlin]

That's what made me make the statement tho I think I misremembered it

[old galleon]

i remember

i can also make a compelling case for you to play again, since global will be getting arc next year

[ebon quartz]

owo

I don't even have my old account so that works lol

[ebon quartz]

https://i.redd.it/zeh1f40yhgxa1.png

[summer hornet]

“Fine, I’ll do it myself”

[ebon quartz]

Also something I've noticed with Seele-

She's an amazing support.

She can apply a debilitating debuff to enemies 4-5 times a turn.

That debuff is death.

[summer hornet]

Lmfaooooo

She really is ridiculous

And to think she’s just the first limited 5 star in the game

Like where do you go from here

[ebon quartz]

yep

She's the kind of broke ass character I would have expected after a year or two.

[old galleon]

the same every other game does: broken-ass supports

even for a nuke of seele's caliber, damage is damage and can be replicated to some extent with others

but specific support may not be so easy to replicate

[late canopy]

[old galleon]

so it's not a coincidence that herta is an anagram of earth, right?

[idle grove]

hmm should I use herta or pela

[long tree]

It's mihoyo so probably not

[long tree]

you really pulling on the standard banner huh

[ebon quartz]

GAY GAY GAY GAY GAY GAY GA

[long tree]

Seele and bronya best couple

[ebon quartz]

And now Seelas atk is over 600 and just grows to nearly 800 over the course of a fight.

https://v.redd.it/uk529uezfjxa1

[dull bridge]

honestly seems kinda crazy but i feel that for me it's better

cause i rly need bro ya

and it's better to get the 300

idk

[slow raft]

30 pulls before pity

...true. you think we'll get Merlin, Skadi, or S. Cagliostro first?

[glossy latch]

Btw

You guys should look up the entry for Masked Fools under the Faction section of the Database

[dull bridge]

yeah

it's amazing

[slow raft]

[glossy latch]

Its important lore

[slow raft]

50 exp away from level 34

and with that my next mission

[dull bridge]

2k away from 42

leveling is soooooo slow

past like 36-38

[old galleon]

s cagliostro is not the comparison i would draw if i were referencing granblue

[zealous kite]

Speaking of granblue, babyl starts soon

[summer hornet]

Who would you suggest then? Korwa, Rei, Nehan, or...?

[old galleon]

s korwa most likely, but remember she got a rebalance to make her what she is

[zealous kite]

Nehan was broken from day 1

And he's arguably the strongest support in granblue

So he's a good comparison

[old galleon]

i think s korwa is more well rounded

[summer hornet]

I've always thought of S Cags as the premiere example of GBF support, but I also got her early on and she defined my water teams for like 3+ years

Party Water buff + crit buff, heal plus stat boost, and a skill to dispel enemy buffs

[long tree]

Honestly idk how they're gonna top bronya as a support without just kinda

Fucking everything

[glossy latch]

Theyll find a way

Maybe well get HI3 levels of powercreep

[long tree]

Dear lord I hope not

[glossy latch]

Me neither

[long tree]

Seeles already touching insane power creep with their unlimited turn works

And she's just the first unit released

[dull bridge]

do u think they might nerf

ppl

[idle grove]

gacha games very rarely nerf characters unless they literally break the game

[dull bridge]

i mean to me

it feels ike seele breaks the game

but sure ig

[old galleon]

seele, as good as she is, does still have noticeable flaws

in pure single target fights where no mobs get spawned, she can't fuel her bonus attacks

in fights where there are multiple large enemies, it takes longer to get the mobs to a point where you can feed them to her

she's still very good, and i'm not just memeing when i say she's the best aoe unit in the game

but she's not game-breaking

[glossy latch]

Even in pure single target fights her DPS is really high isnt it?

[old galleon]

it is, yes

i'm not saying 'don't bring her to pure st fights bc you can't feed her'

just, her mechanics, while very powerful, don't break the game in half

[glossy latch]

Ok yeah its confirmed, Gepards weapon is a guitar case

[old galleon]

speaking of gepard, he just smacked my ass in world 3

i'm guessing i need more ability tree upgrades bc i felt like i was doing no meaningful damage half the time

[glossy latch]

What was your team and what blessings did you go for?

[old galleon]

i went seele/sushang/natasha/fire mc with hunt blessings for the hunt resonance to deal with his mobs faster

i'm not a huge fan of turtling if i can avoid it

got him to phase 3 before it all fell apart

[glossy latch]

Well, my "easy" solution requires Clara

Becuase Clara + Elation blessings is hilariously busted

[old galleon]

i haven't tried clara elation in world 3 yet

would probably work, i just need to get clara levels

[glossy latch]

Its how I beat it

While underlevelled even

[dull bridge]

i mean i will always recomend turtling but if you don't like it mabye swap sus for a damage amp if u have tingyung or mabye asta tho idk

i feel like 2 dps is overkill

[slow raft]

alright, main story done

also damn, the shop resets monthly and not weekly

guess that was to much to hope for

[glossy latch]

Wait which shop?

I thought all of them reset weekly

[slow raft]

ember and starlight

[glossy latch]

That one does reset weekly doesnt it?

[glossy latch]

Oh

It resets monthly

RIP

[slow raft]

why did i type daily and not monthly

[glossy latch]

That sucks

[long tree]

The highest

Not only that but bosses in this game so far always summon adds

[idle grove]

Just when I thought it couldn't get cooler

[glossy latch]

||Well the region does have sub-zero temperatures||

[idle grove]

[idle grove]

ok I love ||fire MC||

[idle grove]

man this is a really nice CG

[glossy latch]

The art is consistently good

I wish the characters were more varied tho

[glossy latch]

Was the direction for Kafkas VA in english just "sound as seductive as possible with every line" or what?

[slow raft]

Seems like it

[glossy latch]

||Huh, so Nanook is gonna be the endgame? Doubt the game will ever reach that part though||
