on the other hand, there are so many alter egos i still want
kiara, kingprotea, doman, melt and super bunyan kinda, and coming soon grigori rasputin and tiamat
bonus points for alter egos being great for some upcoming content
I want Tiamat mostly though my next big goal will be Kukulkan
apparently theres a kukulkan rerun after tiamat
Unfair
so i might be looking into getting her too
I'm still not sure what to use my GSSR on for New Years hmm
yeah im still deciding
I was gonna say this is the worst DB form created but Ego exists and I thank God it hasn't been adapted anywhere and hope it stays that way.
And a half, iirc.
Ye, it was June '22.
time flies by fast
Beast does fuck all narratively. Like random Rage Boost could just as much let Gohan do the exact same thing.
And it looked okay in the movie, ignoring the copy paste transformation, but every promotional image and the manga makes his goofy aaah hair more ridiculous.
Ego is just built different to somehow be worse than that.
Get beaten to get stronger -> Lose because you took too much damage.
Fucking genius. It's like they distilled jobbing into a transformation.
And also takes the dumbass brow of SS3 with the worst shade of Maroon to make the most off putting form. How people keep gassing it up and asking for it in Dokkan/Legends/Heroes and now Sparking Zero is beyond me.
On that note tho, as much as I hate Black Freeza Toyo made him look cool for once in his latest render.
Almost a big glowup as when Freeza turns Gold when brought back at Baba's place. Shit changes opinion thru mere vibes.
rip
Honestly the film should've just ended after the gammas were beaten
oh right, for gbf players, today's reset in about half an hour will include the premium banner which would drop in about 8 hours from now
so you have a choice to use those rolls on the current flash banner (and go for yatima or whoever else) or save them for premium (and go for raphael, indra, or orologia summon)
i'll be saving mine since i got yatima already
but it's your call
roulette gave me three 10 rolls
will likely get nothing useful out of them but we'll seein about 7 hours
mlm ships: And I… wish to see you completely bare.
wlw ships: So when I throw the harpoon, Whales turn to you.
got 100 rolls on roulete
based

She's slaughtered every fight I've put her in
downside, she crumples against knight classes, upside, she punches everything else into oblivion
looks like you'll have future content on easy mode then
I'd never go through with it, because I love Castoria as a character and as a unit
But I think I could skip Summer Castoria because of Bazett if I really wanted to lol
they do different things
if you like castoria enough , go for her summer form
she remains one of, if not the best, st dps in the game
starting after new year's when I drop my NYE 10-roll on trying to get nitocris alter, I'm saving for aesc and oberon
nothing will move me
didn't oberon just have a banner
yes but I spent everything on getting muramasa
I was gonna say, if you're going for Nito Alter then there's not a ton of time to save back up rn
Yeah, many of the banner leading up to new years are tempting
I finally have my own normal skadi so shes become even more powerful
shes called lotta because shes does a lotta work removing them trashmobs
oh god scam cat is on to me
you know she wanted to use a different word than "splurge"
okay so in addition to the characters they announced earlier, goblin mage is also playable now
let's see what they all do
indala looks like a toxicosis-based skill nuker
fitting of the snake zodiac
raphael looks like wind ca support
but also his ward skill has 16 hits on it for some fucking reason
so that'll be nice with ewiyar's beak and tiamat edge aura
his weapon is another one in the vein of fenie's where it's strictly mh only
(and it's a fist so yay for luchador/sumaibito i guess)
orologia's effects aren't all shown in the preview so idfk about it
anyway, tonight's draws were ass
only an owlcat dupe for them
i'm probably gonna throw another ten roll or two at it out of spite
well i got goblin mage
now i just have to hope the rest of the banner plays nice over the next few days
to this day i still don't have vikala so it would be par for the course if the other dark zodiac also didn't show up
i got orologia and goblin mage in the 100 pulls
congrats
hopefully i can get indala to add to this list
seasonals aside, i'm missing andira, mahira, vikala, and now indala
apparently consensus is that indala is pretty mediocre
i don't think she's that bad, personally
but uh
payila was a mistake and next to nothing they were realistically gonna release was gonna be even close
like payila's base kit is the best zodiac in the game, including seasonals, including 5* uncaps
and that's a list that includes v cidala who's also very good
payila is cracked to the point idek what they'll do for her 5* in a few years
all hail the neet dragon
oh also with indala she has an effect that takes a little time to build up, but once it does, it's pretty nuts
cuts foes' buff durations by 5 turns
this sounds tailor-made for higher end gw
(hence why i don't think she's that bad)
used my grand ticket
since all my options were on flash banner anyway i just used it early
(if you have targets you'd want off the premium banner, hold until that one's over (but not too long since the ticket does expire))
anyway i took gabriel
it was really only between her, zeta, and cosmos
and now my water gets a bit stronger
everytime i see the antics of the main team + helena on the Elmo I always think of that 1 meme of the guy holding like 5 leashes trying to wrangle his kids
and with that i have one of the bog standard water teams
yatima's also an option but she has some anti-synergy with payila so i'm running this without her first
【QRT of Arknights_EN (@ArknightsEN):】
'Dear Doctor,
Rerun SideStory Event: So Long, Adele: Home Away From Home will soon be live on January 3, 2025, 10:00 (UTC-7), and some of the contents are…
Banger banger, another banger by girbo on twitter.com
thanks to the power of a neet dragon, an angel, and her disciple, this is cut down to 9, and it feels like it'll be consistent, since i had a ton of room to spare on the last turn
(supportless astaroth)
while i was looking for that other message i found this one, and now i have g sandy so i can try a light comp on astaroth at some point (just not right now and def not sandy on his own)
Rejoice mongrels
ooh thats nice
oh cool, those buffs are finally on global
tldr enkidu gets a 50% battery and gil's is self-explanatory
we are mere moments away from rapihood banner
wtf is this, i must've missed it in the patch notes but it just gave me like 700 gems
if it gives that amount every day for the next 7, that's some real stonks
rupee blessing us with the gift of more pulls
anyway i'm just waiting to log in
i'm not expecting the kind of luck i had with cindy, but we'll see
naga skin sighting in the new year's "event"
i am so cooked
i wish the gacha skins were better as a whole but they're just good enough that i can't resist scamming myself
i wish the gacha skin system was better as a whole
like monetize the skins, that's fine, but the rng element is dumb
aye
though to be fair the RNG is balanced such that you need to be insanely lucky to spend less than $50
and in most cases you'll need all $600
which, even with the other goodies you get from it, is a scam
surprising absolutely no one since strange fake just started airing and they did this shit with sr saber last year
i could buy rapihood with pity immediately but i'm gonna do a 10-pull for luck because i have zero restraint
rip, nothing
oh well
two years in the making
welp, only got one copy of her in all my pulls
how many pulls
but here's a complete list of all the other spooks that decided to show up in the process
umm
itw as like 30k something gems and 47 tickets
so a bunhc
oh damn you really did burn everything lol
yes
but
setting failing to mlb rapi aside
epinel
laplace
rosanna
poli
rosanna
nero
rouge
scarlet
tia
noah
finally you can field a bunny duo lol
idk why rosanna saw fit to show up twice
but yeah got a bunny duo finished and also schoolgirl duo
rapihood release perfectly timed for elysion tower day
damn, didn't have enough skill books saved to get her to 10/10/10 immediately
also somehow missing elysion attacker boots lol
but i got her a level 15 doll so
she's got that, 7/10/8 skills, and 3/4 overload pieces
my gacha goes as expected
no fsf saber and I don't have any gems to roll in nikke
wtf

Nice
huh?
Yyyyyyep
i'm not a big fan
requires the use of grails and presumably the bond ce still counts toward party cost
oh, i misread
i was under the impression this was saying "fuse 7 servants into one grand servant"
Oh lmao
If the bond CEs count towards party cost I will actually be upset
But requiring just level 100 isn't a high bar these days imo
^
requiring grails to attempt to fix bond ce issues reeks of desperation
it also actively encourages grailing for gameplay
now you can equip your herc with both castle of snow and golden sumo at the same time, but you need to throw 7 grails at him first
that doesn't sit right with me
The way I saw it, the system is giving you extra ways to play with characters you loved- not trying to force you into meta scenarios
it'll 100% be a way to force meta scenarios
castoria can use both her bond ce and an overcharge ce for extra support; koyan and oberon can use a relevant battery ce and their own bond ces
Their bond CEs are not all that impactful
i'm 99% sure both of them have anti-trait
that's relevant
koyan: 15% anti-human, 15% anti-man attribute
oberon: 20% anti-lawful
15 and 20%, lol
(for koyan the anti-man is much more relevant than anti-human)
and? they're partywide, permanent buffs
Anyways Scheherazade grand caster 
scheherazade's bond ce has 100% debuff resistance
i guess that could be handy in a cq context or the like
it's only for herself unfortunately
Emiya, Cu, Odysseus, Sasaki, Space Ishtar and Space Ereshkigal off the top of my head
Odysseus might not make the cut, but that's five easily
do we know if its one per class?
speaking of eresh, hers is partywide aerial drive, which is okay
s eresh is a selfish one
kagekiyo and sasaki are def getting a slot
30% np damage, 30% crit damage against servants, and +1 affection level
ciel has 30% np damage, 5% gauge per turn, 500 hp heal per turn
so she gets to negate bg's drawback lol
barghest and bazett probs also
bazett gets 30% np damage and a 1 time guts (20% hp)
yea i know
geez is 30% np damage just the default they put on bond ces these days
gogh and summer kiara maybe also
and then ig castoria cause my only other bond 10 servants at that point are muramasa (who gets crit stuff), mango waver and nobukatsu
im not getting nobukatsu or mango to level 100
and im not using waver anymore
in hindsight i probably shouldn't have blown ~6k gems on the nikke step up banner since i don't really need anyone in particular
oh well
ended up picking bunny soda since she has eluded me for long enough
want to get shotgun team going maybe ever
meanwhile, i dont know who to choose
without knowing your roster, idk who you should choose either
probably a good support you don't have yet
i coould get privaty 2 ig
i could also theoreitcally get a dupe, but that feels liek a waste
yeah i'd recommend against using it for a dupe but really depends on what you have and where you are on breaking the 160 wall
if you don't have naga, tia, blanc, or rouge, they're also definitely worth getting
if there's any upside to my rolls not giving me mlb rapi it's that i got some nice nikkes i had already been targeting
i just don't know if i want to start with tia/naga or blanc/rouge
tia/naga is better, especially since on the fabled day where you get crown, naga is best paired with her
pretty sure blanc only outperforms ti/ga if the enemy doesn't have an exposed core to exploit
and even then the gap isn't huge
tia does get annoying at high deficit because she has a screenwide taunt so she's liable to get one-shot, but even then her buffs with naga are more useful for pushing high deficit
you don't seem like you want to deal with the headache of pushing super high deficit content anyway so it's not a big concern
in the interest of trying out some of my new stuff, i'm thinking something like this
(for tia/naga at least)
https://x.com/ivyfriday/status/1874131278607638838 sometimes i forget that they do gendered gssr banners
non-binary banner when?
as an aside, you should get tia's skill 1 to level 7 ASAP if you're going to be using her consistently
before that her burst's self-CDR is awkward and has some downtime
ye
overloaded a helmet for rapi and it only gave me ele damage
which granted, ele damage is nice
but it'd have been nice to get a decent second effect there too
new mystic code
is super based
Snowball Fight: Increase Quick & Arts Card effectiveness [10-20%] (1 turn) for all allies.
Cooldown: 15/14/13
Cool Skating: Apply Evade (1 time, 3 turns) for one ally + Gain [5-15] C. Stars.
Cooldown: 15/14/13
Hot Cocoa Break: Restore [1000-2000] HP & increase NP Gauge by 10% for all allies.
Cooldown 15/14/13
if it doesn't have swap, omni card buff and np gain+strength in the same kit i'm not interested : ^)
I wish
(in all seriousness it's not bad)
you could transmog the mystic codes
aighty i'm gonna take this rrh comp for a spin
I got douman once from gssr, i was fuming
douman's actually pretty good tho
im still hoping to get douman one day
i imagine it was a scenario where youw anted any of the other servants way more tho
okay so even with my fps not being top of the line rapi feels pretty decent
her output is definitely more balanced than cindy's
I CANNOT BELIEVE MICA LEGITIMATELY AND CANONICALLY ADDED SEX WHATTTTTTT
GROZA AND SKK ACTUALLY FUCK IN HER OATH STORY 😭😭😭 https://t.co/NFVdvxoPXG
So the recent patch on GFL2 CN added Groza oath scene
I HATE HOW YOU CAN ACTUALLY CALL THE TELEPHONE NUMBER IN DOUMAN'S TV AD
AND DOUMAN ACTUALLY ANSWERS
ALL
Playing through the Wuthering Waves event
... I have to say, for all my issues with the game, it really knows how to do atmosphere
The Somnoire is just cool
am i delusional or do i see ||maxwell?||
the infamous heavy production in GFL1 resulting in MP5 was immortalised as a joke in the dorm
||maxwell demon soon cope||
||DO THE IMPOSSIBLE SEE THE INVISIBLE||
Ok yeah WuWa out of all Gachas feels the most held back by being a Gacha
ik wym
the hoyo gachas are still built with gacha in mind
but wuwa felt like it should 100% have been a standalone title
doesnt help that the storytelling is pretty bad but it feels the most hurt by it being a gacha game
Thing is, its storytelling is mostly bad because it doesnt have room to breathe I feel
When they slow down, they get pretty good
thats what i mean
has to release in chunks
so they rush some concepts
genshin does this too but u can tell hoyo at least has had experience in this department
But yeah both the fact that almost all characters are female and obviously interested in the Rover and the fact that it can't really introduce interactions between the characters hurt the game a lot
check in on HSR sub Reddit
"😭💢" Posting
Leave
the main hsr sub is pretty awful
first mistake was opening reddit
true
I mainly go on it for one piece tcg news
Like beneath all of the Gachaisms WuWa has is a genuinely solid concept
And its a shame it doesnt get to be fully explored
code HAPPY2025 for our gfl2 gamers @idle grove @timber sigil @old galleon @slow raft @torn harbor
I just wish it was more original in it's world design cause it all just blended together for me
The Somnoire is better there, but fair
@versed pawn too
here we go mates
WHAT
WHAT
nvm he's ass
Mordred 
What a kit
We will NOT be rolling lmao
uhh what's the kit
The most underwhelming quick aoe ive seen in a while
His np is buster actually
buster is even worse for him if he has nothing to stand out with
Oh he smelled of quick so k just assumed
competing with saber, mordred, and salter is not a good start
Why does he have np gen up in his kit then
to say nothing of ibuki
Hes supposed to be a rainbow servant
okay lemme go check atlas
Fog horn sound effect.wav
Someone holding their nose and fanning their hand.gif
he's buster, not quick
I know but I will be blind to hate on quick
anyway the most interesting thing i'm seeing is the targetable cooldown reduction
which gives him something at least
he also has the trinity in just two of his skills along with a 30% battery
Yeah but im not really seeing the multicore angle im ngl
Do they say what his Buster crit damage amp on skill 3 is? Fandom doesn’t have that penciled in yet
def 2x koyan compatible; idk if he's bg compatible or not but the cooldown reduction in his own kit gives me hope
50% at level 10
Eh
My reaction to the entire kit
It kinda reminds me of muramasa with how the kit has no defensive utility and looks set up to do crit damage while also having an aoe np for some reason
me 3 seconds into reading his kit https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3nD2wAP3oR8
Spongebob Stinky Sound Effect
#spongebob
#soundeffects
#soundeffect
#sound
That’s Jalter skill level crit, so it’s not horrible, but Muramasa already has 100% crit damage up
reminds me more of iori's, where he just brings about everything you want in an offensive skill set
but he is missing the hard survival
He also has 50 on his np
Tbf
Ohhhhh
and it's 3 turns so it stacks
Okay that’s pretty nice
so another possible application is in cqs or longer fights as a crit nuke
I'm fine with no defensive utility on muramasa, but I do hope they give him a buff one of these days that gives him like an evade or an invincible and maybe a charisma on one of his skills
And 2k burn is fairly strong as far as burns go
tho that's obv not unique
Plus overcharge rainbow card type debuff on NP. So there’s a few neat tricks in there
my take is: pretty general kit all around, serviceable if you're missing the other great aoe buster sabers, but lacks hard survivability so you need to support him if you're using him outside of farming
unfortunately he's not as cute or iconic as muramasa so I will not be pulling
if you've already invested in ibuki/saber/salter/mordred or even altera i guess, probably not worth just from gameplay perspective
but if you like the character, go for it
if you've read strange fake or are gonna watch the anime, richard is a blast
his character is pretty fun and he gets some neat moments
I find most fate properties post-HA not worth engaging with personally
The furthest I read in SF was the prologue, which has already been animated lol. So I’m going in blind from here on
fate/zero would consider those fighting words
I was initially skeptical, but as far as AOE Buster Sabers he’s actually better than I initially thought
I might roll for him
i'm at the stage of copium where i'm going back and catching up on ex fights for gems
knowing it's not gonna work lol
oh btw apparently narita says richard's third ascension (furry stage) is not a strange fake thing, and was created specifically for fgo
so at least no sf spoilers there
wind
oh right wind isn't a seasonal
oh
good god my levels of cope are unreal right now
what happened
being introduced to the salt mine that is a 1% banner on nikke
i'm trying to mlb ssr rapi bc i like the character and keep being told "fuck you"
strictly speaking, this isn't wise, but hey
i've rolled story banner on fgo a bunch, i'm no stranger to unwise decisions
if i can't mlb her here she's getting mlb'd next time she shows up (unless i luck into it on wishlist) so it'll be inevitable anyway
it's just a matter of if it happens now or 365 days from now
365 days from now it is
Ah, not having done the WuWa story is biting me in the ass now
I cant do the event because I havent unlocked the black shores
Err
Cant finish it

nikke spoils us too much, to the point that i avoid pulling on 1% banners entirely and always try to have pity for them
meanwhile for way too many other gacha a 1% rate-up is the norm
or even above the norm
looking at you and your bullshit, hoyo
"but it's nearly 2% counting pity!" - some psycho, probably
yeah make no mistake, i consider nikke quite generous, esp bc its version of sparking is the best i've seen
and now that i'm past 160 wall mlb rapi is absolutely not necessary
so really i'm in a hell of my own creation
but i knew that going in
i occasionally do madlad shit like this, by the numbers i should occasionally get punished
I'm at a party 
roulette gave me only one 10 roll, and it gave me a gold moon
Asked my boss if I can celebrate new year at out hotel because it has a view over the whole city because I wanna see fireworks again at midnight
Same except
blessed
Got 2 gold.moona from the 10.and went 2 pulls and got another gold.moon
Got the multi going into zeph and slyph summons in one ten roll
I should use the funny snake lady more
https://x.com/Goma_74umai/status/1873210419957121456
add blanc dupe to the list of spooks
congrats
man i goofed spreading out my basic info cores to get neural helix nodes on a bunch of different dolls in gfl2
these things are scarce once you blow through the massive frontloaded amount the game throws at you initially
pretty sure you only get them from event shops (6 per event) and boss fight shop (1 per week)
and you need 3 to unlock one fixed neural helix node on SSR dolls, and each doll has 6 nodes to unlock (18 info cores total)
oofers
feels like that's enough info cores to finish an SSR doll's neural helix track like once every 2 months
that's brutal
ye
tbh it's stuff like that and hoyo rates being discouraging that's making me less enthusiastic for the game, despite loving the ip
military sim gives 1 as well
forgot about that
don't remember how long sim seasons are but i think it's about a week, so another 1/week
i don't know much about the first gfl but i remember hearing it was even grindier than this?
by the ip i mean just that, not the gameplay of gfl1
gfl1 had its own issues
but i like the storytelling, i like the characters, i like the overall plot
oh hey just another couple hundred away from another nopium roll
even at lb0 i'm really liking rapi's performance so far
to be honest, if anything turns me off gfl2 it'll be the double whammy of dupes giving notable power increases, and weapon banners
i hope the eventual over-specs for anis and neon similarly do them justice
oh i just ignore weapon banners
both of these things are the worst systems a gacha can implement and gfl2 does both
and it does both with hoyo rates which are shit
well, slightly better than hoyo rates, but not enough better to not be shit
alrighty, someone bless my roll
as ZZZ has recently taught me, i do too until the game bends over backwards to make a character awkward as hell to gear without their signature weapon
idc if it's god, the devil, or guy
idk if you're rolling in nikke or somewhere else but take smol rapi to bless your gacha
it is nikke, yes
bless you 🙏
rapi's mass-produced brethren
do i need to pray to the rapture queen or something
mb
not your fault, no worries
anyway i am fast reaching a dilemma
i have 0lb rapi and 590 mileage
oh brother
and a certain pilgrim named sbs is also available
inb4 you pull SBS from rapi banner
IF ONLY THAT SCARLET DUPE WAS SBS
ended up having to drop the full $60 on naga skin, as expected
i felt bad, but then i looked at my bank account and realized i don't care
hmmm when do season 2 favorite items go live
want to start focusing helm's
probably in a few weeks idk
yeah they're not in the patch notes, they must've just been part of the christmas livestream as a teaser, similar to the collab event announcements
shame
really looking forward to seeing what helm's item is
she's already pretty decent, and she's also pristine wife material
i'd like it if she became meta
have favorite items made any nikke meta
like i know they make them better, but that's relative
i believe exia's made her a top candidate for electric weak solo raids
but i think she's the only one
so that's 20% success rate
i know people talk up laplace but at the end of the day, i don't see anyone using her over pilgrims
to be fair, she was also not starting from as good a spot as helm is
helm might be the strongest nikke to get a favorite item so far
her or drake probably
exia, diesel, viper, and frima all sucked pre-favorite item, and laplace was just meh
helm, drake, miranda, and milk are the next wave, and of those i think milk is the only meh one. the rest are above average to even decent, and helm is probably the strongest
it's honestly kinda impressive how well helm has held up, she was the game's very first banner
cindy off burst almost outdamaging rrh on neutral
not a knock on rapi but testament to cindy just being dumb
(also she's got a bunch of investment i haven't been able to give rapi yet)
(and also the way damage is calculated favours cindy)
iirc cindy's off-burst damage is actually kinda meh
her burst is where the magic happens
i know but even off burst she's been quite serviceable for me
perks of being your most invested character i imagine
machine guns have an inherent disadvantage on my device bc they fire at 1 shot per frame
and i can't keep 60fps in combat
oh hey it's full burst day
didn't expect that
first time i've seen that outside of the weekend
blessed
gonna need the extra sim room and interception loot to fully kit rapihood lol
would help if my interceptions gave anything useful
but i keep getting abnormal gear recently
im still working on sbs skills lmao
game knows the eva and stellar blade collabs are coming
nikke skills take forever to level
game doesn't konw i'm probably not rolling them much
i remember doing the math once and it's basically 2 months of every day sim room to get a character to 10/10/10
in practice it goes a bit faster since you get also get books from event shops, login rewards, and overclock sim room once you can do it
but yeah skills are a long-term investment
best way is to get all your important girls' skills to level 7 first, then go to 10 one at a time
since levels 8, 9, and 10 are like 75% of the total cost of 1 to 10, damn exponential cost increase
btw guy i wouldn't recommend investing much in SBS's skill 2
i think my SBS is 10/4/10 lol
her skill 1 and burst are amazing, her skill 2 is kinda whatever
i was going for 10 7 10
yeah, solid investment lol
Argor how long do the free pulls go for in GBF
brother they just announced a new walpurgisnacht, why are you pulling
I've been pulling for Wild Hunt 
it's like the 4th or 5th depending on time zone
premium banner in particular will end on the 3rd, iirc; it def ends before the guaranteed (200?) rolls
Of course it does
remember to use your grand ticket before it expires, but if you want to use it on someone who shows up on premium banner, use it after premium goes away
Already used it
who'd you grab/
Galleon

first you need to pull every heathcliff ig
the more gacha skins and MLBs i get, the more i'm praying that nikke adds a system like AL's random secretary rotation
i have more than 5 to display/rotate between dammit
put it as feedback in their next survey
i've put it as feedback in every survey that's let me do so lol
and cope for them to listen
i just realized that even if shes not built, i can use my firefly in sim uni already
we game
No
still love the line from archer right before this
speaking of fate, apparently richards ascension 3 isnt animal characteristic which is very funny
Animal characteristics? Wait who deals with that trait

My youngest sister saw the Hoyoverse widget on my tablet, said "is that Honkai Star Rail?"
I asked her how she'd heard of it, and she said she'd seen the ads
im natasha, an underground doctor
All I could say after that was "I'm so sorry"
at least she didn't see azur lane on your tablet
the question of wether you quit or she finds it will be one for the ages

Wuthering Waves Version 2.0 "All Silent Souls Can Sing" is coming on January 2, 10:00 (UTC+8)! The Carnevale Begins: A World Renewed by Your Arrival.
Not exactly the elysium nikke i was hoping for im ngl
oof
I don't like the implications of this
i've seen nikke occasionally have login problems, it's never been anything bad, just a momentary bug
you may need to log out of the launcher and back in to get things working again
okay internet suggested relog in the launcher
saved
seems like that's a nikke rite of passage lol
i had that problem once and then never again, pretty sure argor has seen it too
so which banners should I focus on first
rapihood > SBS probably

Oath Story 2
SKK:
Hmm... now that I think about it, that sleepless night wasn’t just a dream.
【QRT of mosinman esparttt (@esparttt):】
'I CANNOT BELIEVE MICA …
They don't call Groza "Queen of the Night" for no reason
(At least in GFL1 before AS VAL MOD III)
Groza ain't ever beating the wife allegations tho
if not wife, why wife shaped
okay not the SSR I was looking for but
blessed
welcome to rabbity gang
ULTRA BLESSED
I'll hold on pulling until I get more tickets for now
for context meta, the one on the left (crown) is the best burst 2 unit in the game
and should immediately be synchro'd and leveled for use in your campaign team
on a serious note noir should probably be spoiler tagged
Its sjouldve been me etc
Grats tho
hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm too much booba
smh meta's usually been good about censoring his pulls
the covered legs tricked me
I usually cover up the pulls when the lower half is exposed
So im gonna 1984 it
can't believe this mod abuse 
anyway Crown and Noir are in the accel synchro machine
censoring noir worship in my good christian gacha chat
I maybe shoulda asked but im just assumung emma isnt good
correct she is not
her (future) overspec design looks so much better
i got rapi yipee
nikke ch34 spoilers i guess, just a design tease though
liable to change for when she's released as a unit too, since rapi red hood did as well
this is huge
looking at emma's body
yeah no kiddng
me when
me when the game keeps giving me SSRs but not the one I asked for
scarlet probably doesn't need to be censored, her design isn't that ridiculous lol
at worst it's spoiler taggable
but rejoice, best girl has graced your pulls
time to fiddle around and see if I can build a proper-ish arena team
wooooo
well at the very least rapi hasn't outright abandoned anyone here (that i know of)
blessed pull
I think I'm the last one still looking to pull her
the call to sink gems is tempting
how many gems you got
sitting at like 26k rn after some gem pulls
how many golden pity tickets you got
I actually pulled enough extra times to hit 200
ah nice
tbh i'd just keep sinking gems into rapihood banner until you pull her, and then pity SBS
there's ultimately no difference between using gems vs tickets
just that stockpiling gems to ridiculous levels gives a bit of neuron activation
poggers four pilgrims now
daily reminder that pilgrim molds in particular are a colossal scam and you should expect nothing out of them
i am also here
Its time
the priest smiled
https://youtu.be/F8qRZt_jSF0?si=_QnPUasOdHckelZF already got my catalyst
Just a remake of an old video. The editing in the old one was so offensively bad that I had to delete it
she ate a lot of my gem stockpile
but
down to just 8.7k gems...
would just drop 200 pity tickets on SBS and call it a day on pulls for a while
currently debating whether to delve into my deep gem stockpile to MLB rapihood
wish i liked her burst animation more
pog gift in the mail
i did not get priest sadge
blessed
i'm almost more excited for the synchro expansion item than the gems since i know the gems are gonna once again deny me my rapi dupe
poggers
I just filled out my synchro machine with my new pulls

god i wish scarlet's title wasn't scuffed
2-san's english arc is peak
the fact it's "scarlet's my lord" instead of "scarlet's lord" is so stupid
maybe they thought "scarlet's my lady" would be too easy to meme
i'd sooner MLB scarlet to have her title but nooooo
no it's just laziness, since all of the titles are just "<nikke>'s <way of referring to SKK in conversation>"
and scarlet uses "my lord" to refer to SKK
which is fine in conversation
but it translates shittily to the title
and evidently they don't care about fixing it
i guarantee you it's just some string in the game files and the titles are constructed in this exact way using string substitution
ok i have 160k gems, i'm gonna pull until 100k (so 200 pulls) and see where i'm at afterward, since if i pull a single dupe by then i can just pity to MLB
disclaimer: this is a stupid use of my pulls but my heart says to go for it, rapi is worth it
Its just that easy
blessed
60 pulls, bunny soda dupe (this is funny because i used my step up guaranteed SSR on her just yesterday lol)
Im not exactly elated about my np 3 jeanne but it is what it is
Ill never complain about getting the ssr i want in onyl 60 pulls in fgo
80 pulls, bay dupe
Now to ponder gssr
110 pulls, noir dupe
i'll be honest i just speedran a bunch of multis since i wasn't getting any SSRs so i lost track
150 (?) pulls, isabel dupe
favorite item agenda still intact
160 pulls, rosanna (not a dupe, actually my first pull of her lol)
170, admi dupe
200th pull lmao
hes just like me frfr
YOROKOBE SHOUJO SHOUNEN
came on a double SSR pull with a harran dupe too
hit the pilgrim pool twice
welp
i can MLB rapi with pity and that's what i'll be doing
that was painful
mlb rapi just does not like us for some reason
maybe it's her punishment for not being efficient with gems
O.o
now i'm getting a bunch of rosanna blabla chats since i have both her and her alt
CANON SEGGS
(cummander and rosanna have 100% banged multiple times between her bond story, side events, and blabla chats)
gifted rapihood all the way to affection 40 immediately
all i need is elysion boots for her last OL slot and i can use her title
surprising absolutely nobody
pretty sure she's the only one he's explicitly done it multiple times with
except maybe blanc/noir
the writers are clearly biased for the pole dancing bunnies
||and i don't blame them||
yeah very based of them
happy new year (or early new year if you're west of eastern standard time)
in the last april fool's event, cummander plays a joke by using the outpost chat to invite nikkes who want to get "hot and heavy" to a hotel room (in reality he's just making some hot roasted sweet potato parfaits)
may the gacha gods bless your pulls this year, your rosters be filled, and ||your degenerate desires fulfilled||
the nikkes who show up expecting something else are: rosanna, rupee, mary, privaty, blanc and noir (together of course), and yulha
these are canonically the nikkes most down bad for SKK
happy new year
how much you bet rapi gets added to this list at some point
she def seems to be at least a bit more aggressive now
tho, hot take: i don't want her getting on that level
rapi is down bad but also has a far more wholesome, emotional connection
would feel really out of character
all of these girls ofc like SKK but 100% have a more physical attraction to him than anything
rapi's got genuine love going for her
i've already heard some unhinged lunatics complaining that rapihood's bond story doesn't include a canon "encounter"
it's just sweet to the point of diabetes where her and SKK basically go on a date and hold hands and hug
this is what happens when gooners get vocal on a gooner game
(also one could read into it and argue there is an "encounter", it's just not quite so heavy handed like the others)
not like that blanc and noir scene where it's literally just a threesome
yeah i think that's heavy cope
i'd agree but
you know how people are
i'd say there's a non-zero chance something happened, but non-zero doesn't have to be a large number
and if it did it wasn't particularly made explicit
so i don't care
let the game's poster girl have a wholesome relationship
i welcome that
HUOOOOOOOOOOOOUGH HAPI RAPI
whosoever would do anything to make this woman cry will know suffering
or something like that
hmm i've changed my tune after playing through the bond story
the possibility of an encounter is nontrivial, but i still don't think it happened
so we agree
she was hesitant to ask for a hug in the last episode, i don't think they went from hug to seggs that fast lol
but the phrasing is definitely vague--intentionally so i'm sure--with them "embracing for a long while" and SKK going home after his legs start getting sore
god dammit where am i gonna put this rapihood burst animation in my lobby rotation
top five, khaios
i have SBS gacha burst (gonna be there forever, it's way too good when paired with scarlet's theme), naga gacha burst, s.rosanna burst, marciana gacha burst, and x.ludmilla burst
i feel obligated to have the gacha skin bursts on my lobby screen because it makes the $60 hurt less
s.rosanna was the first nikke i ever went out of my way to MLB for her burst animation, it's too peak to not use
i guess that leaves x.ludmilla as the odd one out but i love her too
aaaaaaaaaaa 5 isn't enough
they really want me to spend money on that naga skin
it's a damn good skin, but genuinely no nikke skin is worth $60, not even with the goodies along the way
as good as the naga skin is, it's not enough to make me drop 60 bucks
same for the cindy skin, same for the sbs skin, etc
gacha skins are a scam, if you don't have enough money to not care like me then don't spend
where's the $60 price point come from
is that the amount for a guaranteed skin?
yeah
you can get it before spending that much, but the odds are astronomical
it's like a sub-1% chance before you reach the $50 point
is the step up banner worth it
for you with an incomplete roster? probably
on one hand, getting your pick after only 6600 gems sounds legit
on the other, no mileage
so ymmv
guarantees any non-pilgrim SSR at the end + 30 discounted pulls
spending gems on non-rate up banners is somewhat bad civ but the guarantee is likely worth it for a young account that needs to fill holes in their roster
tbf mine is also a young account but after the random spooks from rapi not showing up combined with what i already had, i don't think i need it
most of what i actively want at this point is pilgrims
after putting rapihood burst on my lobby, i'm happy i did
her theme from this event goes very well with it
similar to gacha scarlet's burst + her theme, the pairing elevates it
is her theme already in the jukebox?
yeah, "rising higher" in the events album
aight
you also have been insanely lucky on pulls to fill out your account pre-rapihood drought lol
and even then you still got rapihood, you just also tried for MLB like a madlad
and i'll succeed if i forsake sbs
hence my dilemma
admittedly, i wasn't expecting this to go this far south tho
the only worse outcome woudl have been not pulling rapi at all
inb4 all of anis/neon/mihara/yuni/eunhwa/emma/vesti over-specs release in the calendar year
matis had them too right?
so add laplace/drake/maxwell to that list
.....there's no way
ain't no fuckin shot they release 10 over-specs in the same year, there shouldn't be enough event space
but idk
I won 
Groza ain't never beating the wife allegations now
not as part of the story, no
somewhat doubt yuni will get overspec lol
really the only ones that are set up as part of the story right now are mihara and absolute (eunhwa/emma/vesti)
c34 ends with an allusion to anis getting an upgrade, but we don't know the timeline
i'm sure neon will get one too eventually, but hard to see how it'll happen right this very moment
they've been cooking up something about her glasses being special in the story, but that doesn't really seem like setup for an overspec, more about her identity as a "spy"
blessed
but also yeah hard to see them releasing that many overspecs in a year
she needs proper 5* upgrade like rapi (and preferably not gacha in this case lmao)
they're basically new pilgrim slots, and pilgrims only really release during anni events and new year's
anis and neon probably need something to be able to keep up with rapi
like, rapi's fused with fuckin red hood
pretty noticeable power jump compared to them
they do, but tbh a big point of recent chapters is that the entire counters squad (even pre-rapihood) just wasn't cut out for dealing with some of the shit they're dealing with atm
so it's less keeping up with rapi (though that's part of it) and more keeping up with the raptures and heretics
then that would be a decent motivation to introduce an upgrade for them
(and no their summer versions don't count for obv reasons)
hence c34 setting up an anis upgrade (she basically pulls an "ok i need to go talk to the boss, i've put this off long enough")
not so much for neon yet though
would it be out of character for mustang to pull a dick move on her
i feel like behind the "EEEEEEEENTERTAAAAINMENT" facade there's a schemer
btw there's like a 99% chance that ||anis is this "pretty" nikke idol that's been referenced several times in recent chapters and events||
mustang definitely has something cooked up for anis but i don't think it's a dick move
all the way back in chapter 5 or so he has a short conversation with anis that's something to the effect of "you're not coming back? fine, i will wait as long as necessary, because no good thing comes easy"
they clearly have a history of some sort, we just don't know what it is
which could be a reference to what you spoilered but could also be just a whole "you're a tetra nikke working with counters" thing
but idk how much more evidence exists for that
in a vaccuum it could've easily been the latter
but with how much they seem to be setting anis up for a tragic past of her own
it's a near certainty there's something going on there, more than just a tetra nikke going off on her lonesome
okay if i need 400 gems fast without swiping and have already caught up on ex stages i can actually do, what's the fastest in-game way of doing that
asking for a friend
idk how many gifts i have to work with
i don't keep up with bond stories as i unlock them, i have easily thousands of gems stored as a rainy day fund in unlocked but unseen chapters lol
i think i calculated exactly how many once, and it's only grown since
i do bond stories as they become available
back here i arrived at 11k gems banked in bond stories
and like i said it's probably grown since
nowadays i try going through them all at once when i max out a nikke (max bond level + 20/20 advice sessions saved)
but i've fallen behind even on that, think i still have to go through helm, dolla, and maid privaty's stories by that metric
you up to date on hard campaign stages too?
the ex stages, yes
but i'm not super far in hard campaign
like chapter 5 or so
which is around where chapter 21 is in terms of recommended cp
hmm
250 gems from co-op shop if you haven't already bought it
regular tribe tower floors give 50 apiece if you're not already as far as you can go there
Took the 30 sq for another try at nito, no luck
speaking of, rapi still not showing up
none of the other GSSR categories have a strong enough balance of good targets vs neutral/bad targets for me to even consider them
should I go ST Saber or AOE Lancer?
personal bias aoe lancer
Ryouma?
Saber for musashi
completely unsurprising lol
get 10 advanced tickets from shifty
pull on rapi again
finally a fucking gold door
first nikke is gold
milk
i just cannot win
favorite item gaming
i have like just about everyone aside from miranda who has a favorite item by now lol
did they not give out buffs for new year's in JP
of course you'd drop u-olga and not goetia you fucks
cash in one last mold before I finish for tonight
these folks think they're so clever
trying to get me to gamble for skins
AS SHRIMPLE AS THAT BABY
starting to actually try and build more thanone team in zzz, this look about right? (team 3 is lycanon waiting room)
all looks good

damn tfw only unit I'm missing now is Tololo
would probably move seth to being after jane (so jane->seth->grace or smth), since his quick assist triggers backwards and you'd rather give the shield + anomaly buff to jane since she's your main on fielder + anomaly trigger-er
blessed, the gems + synchro expansions from yesterday was just the first gift in a series of 3, we get 20 more advanced vouchers over the next 2 days
also got 10 advanced vouchers in the mail today as part of a random new year's gift too
after doing a round of hard union raid today
i think rapihood might actually be better as a B1
but i don't have her fully kitted/overloaded so TBD
but she seems to still do a sizeable amount of damage as B1, and using her there frees up a B3 slot for someone who needs it to do damage
she's really good either way though
a B1/B3 with good DPS and buffs either way and two elemental strengths, easily the most versatile unit in the game, honestly even moreso than red hood herself since red hood being all 3 bursts is more of a gimmick than anything
wtfffff
apparently Ullrid's VA also voiced Takemi from P5
I was wondering why her voice was really familiar
Mavuika's cool
all i know about her is that ZZZ's influence is spreading because hoyo gave her dummy jiggle physics
i wish i was built like the rat girl or the other cop girl with the red highlights in her hair
well prepare yourself since apparently that's coming to genshin
well atleast they got their tanaka rie out the system
imagine if they got her voice with ZZZ physics
it would be so beyond joever for non headphone or home alone player
Genshin on their way to give you 20 pulls after the archon banner
dick move to put citlali on phase 1 too
like why
well besides money
it took like 80 pulls for me to get mavuika
im using the remaining pulls on citlali for this phase but i got 0
by phase 2 im going for clorinde coz i lost to her last time
that's what im sayin
woohoo more nopium
idk if this is necessarily true, she does still compete with liter
but her own personal damage is definitely much higher
she's still insane regardless
again, the context of my testing was in hard union raid where you field 3 teams, so there was room for rapihood
for general use liter is still almost certainly better
i mean hard raid
yeah, so mock battle in hard raid
i wasn't mock battling but sure
i had to field 3 teams for my 3 attempts
rapihood was on one of them, liter was on another
yeah so that's why i was asking if your union still had hard raid up
bc mine's been done with it for a bit now
not that i got to contribute much to it lol
the union i'm in definitely is not a strong competitor for clears
we place somewhere in the 18-20% ranks on every union raid
i CBA to go find a new union that's better
i think mine was in like 12-13% or somewhere around there, would hav eto check later
again, not that i contributed much to that
i'm still leeching lol
day 1 of union raid i got to make some contributions and then day 2 i did like 15% over 3 fights
lol
i'm finally at the stage where i'm definitely one of the higher contributors in my union
one of the screenshots i shared a few days ago of my electric team doing 1.5 billion or something was me one-shotting level 6 or 7 union raid alteisen
given my union is definitely on the more casual end though, this isn't saying too terribly much though
one of my teams is competing with the top contributers
but seeing as on a whole were only in the top 35 that isnt really saying much
lmao

okay amphoreus has my attention now
its been clear that trying to wrap up story in 4 patches hasnt worked for penacony or natlan in genshin
sometimes its just that easy
missing the second half of wholeness, but i doubt its goign to matter

raw skill 3 does half his health and staggers 
Also I went back into Granblue again, just to use the free rewards
I'm assuming this Vane is pretty good?
RIP
iirc grand vane is pretty underwhelming
his weapon is great tho
anyway, roulette gave me three 10 rolls again
and they gave me a copy of orologia
so for yet another year i managed to snipe the ny providence summon
still don't have raphael or overworked snek tho
also was able to do another roll in nikke, which of course gave me nothing
i'm really gonna have to use all 600 mileage to mlb rapi at this rate
did i miss the free 5* for hsr
Should still be up? I think?
If you mean Dr ratio though yeah you missed him a while ago
nah the newer one
that gives a standard banner
i stopped rigjt before it and was like imm logon to geab himeko
bht never dod
no you havent
i guess part 2 of nikke event story dropped some lore bombs
Ah are u guys also experienceing some issues with the genshin patch like ping spikes
its been very smooth for me

@slow raft @versed pawn @torn harbor @old galleon @rapid bough
i maintain that actually playing soukaku feels like shit since all her attacks/animations are slow as sin and she feels unresponsive as a result
but i also haven't exactly given it an extended try, it probably feels better once you know wtf you're doing
so i hear and look forward to experiencing, though i refuse to spend gems on extra tickets just to finish the story. i'll be patient
i do think it's annoying that you can buy your way to finishing the story early so the community splits between people who have done so and people who haven't
and the people who do rush to the end often are irresponsible with spoilers
this got really bad with old tales and the red shoes reveal
ex skill 3 times into 6 normals into swap
