you can play ciel without s bb
It's almost as bad as Korean shovelware gacha
but she does help obv
oops!
it's genuinely insane, returning to regular gacha games after I've sunk 500 hours into Limbus
what do you mean I need to save up for months just to get enough currency to guarantee I'll get a unit that will only appear on a banner once within the next 2 years
s bb next banner should be later this year btw
but depending on what you're trying to get, it's awful timing
*explaining genshin impact to my project moon oomfs* ok so imagine if there was no sharding available for anyone except 2*s and you could only shard certain ones depending on the day. Now imagine the standard banner had only cinqdon kuroshu nsault ouficliff and zwei Gregor
gacha games are so tiring to deal with
Limbus just kinda chucks everything at you and says "STOP PAYING FOR OUR SHIT PLEASE"
I can't believe FGO gets enough money to permanently put part 2 of Tsukihime Remake on hiatus with this kind of gacha system
They are so laughably bad at getting peoples money 
and yet they've acquired enough funds to run limbus at a loss for 3 years!
Something something dragalia lost something something
GLORY TO PROJECT MOON
Power of the ip i fear
Limbus just needs good end-game content that's a bit more varied than mirror dungeons and it'll be golden for the next 5 years
They should keep old railways
yes
Eh tsukihime part 1 took so long I'm not even fazed by part 2 taking any length of time, FGO or no
let us replay old railways
Lemme go through railway one with new age burn
type-moon just does shit it be like that
Legit they could make a 5 star male shiki banner in fgo that is specifically advertised that the profit will fund tsukuhime part 2 and they'd get that shit funded day 1
like the fate/extra remake is meant to come out this year and we dont even know anything about it apart from 1 gameplay demo
"wait for anime expo" or something : ^)
a cool game mode they could do is take all of your ID's and set you off on like a Miitopia-esque adventure with you slowly picking up random ID's to join your party
Schizophrenia or tulpas call it
don quixote storybook adventure
cooked even harder today
👀
she's phantom's squadmate
pretty design and likely goofball/dork if phantom is anything to go by
winning formula
will have to see kit, but at the very least, elysion tower is pretty full for me already
regardless, i'm probably just saving
i'm definitely saving unless she's busted but more cute nikkes more better
another future wishlist candidate
so much for being bad on gluttony
i can only assume the raid version doesn't have the dot mitigation
bc people were definitely observing it in the story version
i also don't know what their overloads on rapi vs mihara look like
but yes, when boss design doesn't actively fuck her over, mihara is actually good
mihara is one thing, but every day, i'm still feeling the pain of not having crown
probably does better at keeping rapi alive with helm, but this was a first test
just decided to put a bunch of fire nikkes in the same comp and see if it worked
squad alone hit 1.1b
this is just ling with extra steps
@long tree good news, seems Cartethyia has an ult that transforms her into the tall form from her boss fight
good things happen when rapi stays alive
hopefully i don't lose overall damage for doing this tho
do a yolo single roll on mihara banner
finally see gold gate
pilgrim
||red hood dupe lmao||
scam mold gave me biscuit
so i can finally build around that comp in arena lol
NO PLEASE MY WALLET
i like how theres a sea spawning in the middle of her ult that is split in half
i was wondering why scirroco wasnt given his white suit
now it makes sense
wait hold up these are just the plain zeta vers
wait was zeta legit not in the game already
it was just zeta new translation
this is base zeta
also yeah the attacks reflect this is base zeta, in base zeta he only does a beam slash then goes waverider kamikaze
in new translation he does a bit more
in zeta new translation he uses his wrist guns, slash then does a kick to waverider kamikaze
i'll give new translation this, when it's the new scenes, man they look really pretty
they give kamille more char's fighting traits like the char kick
for some reason, ever since zeta new translation, that has become the default version for games that feature zeta
now the alt version is base zeta
even WHEN ZZ is also in the same game and is the next story mode order
but yeah the artstyle of kamille, the fact he only channels 3 souls instead of 4 souls like new translation
I'm curious
There goes my plan to pull Changli, rip
that's alot of stamina woah
I think I spend most of the time on the event to not spent it...
I swear I should built my Amatsu Mina after I'm done with my degree (which is after SF...)
Genuinely didn't know the crest was supposed to be some sort of hat, but I like the aesthetic
It's over-the-top that kinda feels out of place in SEED, but perfect for Astray
i find it funny how extra the amatsu mina is, it's black and evil looking
the other 2 just looks like regular suits
Yeah, even the crab claws sorta looks like cape
It took me to see it in motion to appreciate its design
despite in SD package
astray had restraint early on before it succumbed to backpack overload that seed suits became
I think I prefer SD Amatsu Mina than its actual form...
It just looks so much more cleaner
yeah
the longer the lobster claws are the least intimidating it looks
it looks comical
It doesn't even looks like cape anymore
how to make you look super evil
change your entire suit from white and gold to black red and gold
Dude is so extra, but I'm amazed how anyone instantly guessed it's the gold frame despite the design overhaul, like, it doesn't even looks like part of Astray line anymore lol
It's more in-line with something from G Gundam
Yeah, Mk II showed us that grunt Gundam is possible, so why can't they?
Holy shit lmao
I didn't see that coming at ALL
Really is crazy that we're rolling for TV version of Zeta
But they did make it look great lol
Yeah, that’s an excellent touch
This is what my endgame stuff looks like rn
The SEED Astray event was more fun than I anticipated, and I finished the G-Witch story. Gonna keep replaying it till I can 3-star Darilbalde, then I’ll move to IBO, Wing, and SEED
yeah astray gives seed levels an advantage
iirc you can use astray units in seed story mode team 1
since they take place within those events
the best astray unit isnt even the gacha red frame, it's the yellow frame which is cool
Oh they already had a version of Red Frame in the standard gacha?
That explains why they made yellow and blue the SSRs in the event
it was for the strike freedom banner
Ohhhhhh
yeah it's why they give you a lowe in the event that corresponds with his attribute
i have all 3 maxxed out, and feels like gold is the best then red and blue are tied to me
the event is pretty generous, with like the duel links event lottery system when you exchange tickets for rewards in certain events
Yeah the boss fight system is REALLY nice
And I like that they don't require you to use SEED units in the boss fights
that red gundam stage was kinda a pain in the ass
but this one felt like it shouldve came first, with the difficulty balance
but i guess to tie into GQX, and they wanted to have it with the strike freedom banner coz it's seed
"save the Servant Society... Saul Goodman...!"
Istg if i get scirocco im quitting
Imagine pulling in a gacha and getting epstein

crazy way to phrase it but not inaccurate
OwO
Also yeah, the Astray event is lot more generous than red gundam one, and not simply because I'm stronger now
Red gundam event is frustating because you have to play cat and mouse
While in Astray you dont have to chase/avoid the boss, so you can focus on whittling down its health the most optimal way you can
GQ Char, you should be lucky am getting another GQ grandpa to limit break it
Still waiting on that Sazabi to complete the package...
I would give her a big hug

I would fold like a lawn chair with way too many hinges
I would give her a sprinting jump bearhug and she would simply salute and say "Glory to Limbus Company"
oh i just noticed they fucked up their own subs for meri siva's name
Thats too many typo in one screen
Reminds me that SEED Campaign also choose this exact shot
it's weird when it's a character they named, with clear english text
so it's not an animation error?
so it's just the localisation/translation team that made a weird messup
since theyre consistent with using the name meia shiva
switched over to bunnies and got rapi's doll to 15, added about 200m
how big is end game
endgame whales are hitting between 7-8b with god comp
totaling around 17-19b between the 5 teams
why they make the numbers so high yeesh
her i am thinking 99 million is the highest ive seen in a gacha game (dokkan)
another eden's newest story update added hp sponge bosses with > 100b hp
just that's a completely different combat system
also in master difficulty a scripted fight had the boss with 420t hp, just to make it clear you're not supposed to (and can't) win it
for comparison, damage hard cap is 10b -1 per hit, with a soft cap at 2.5b that significantly reduces damage past it
i'll probably do one more run on the last day where every squad actually survives to the end of the fight
apparently shift up ceo posted about expedition 33, leading some people to call for a collab with nikke lol
haven't gotten to play it but i've seen some gameplay and it looks neat enough
like a new age take on superstar saga in terms of combat
not sure how well a collab with nikke would work tho
I don't think they would
It's just two games who's goals are just completely unaligned
idk enough about the game to know for sure
i just think the setting of expedition 33 probably doesn't fit very well with nikke
ofc that hasn't stopped them before
It's not just the setting it's like
All the collabs with nikke have been gooner adjacent at the very least
Stellar blade nier automata are self explanatory and the less said about CSM Eva and re zeros fan bases the better
It'd be a crossover no one really wants
Legit the only way to make it work would be a makima coat situation
Even then seeing characters like cinderella (not saying she's a bad character, just that her outfit is atrocious) in the same team as the expedition cast is probably not what the developers would want

haven't checked it but this is probably the interview they mistakenly posted early that spoiled some event stuff

how do they think kirei got away with it for so long

oh is the azur lane cn anni event gonna be hms again
ngl i haven't touched azur lane since like, the start of last month
but i do still keep tabs
yep
not sure what they're doing for the ur tho
all i know is that i'm back over 500 cubes and ready to be hearbroken by another 200 pull adventure
biszwei should rerun right after, god help me
the frequency of UR events running b2b(2b) is only gonna increase now that we're deep into regular reruns
based on this (apparently) leaked CN promo, people are theorizing ||HMS lion (BB) for the UR|| -- spoilered for actual spoiler btw, not NSFW (rare azur lane non-NSFW share)
||shishiro botan lol||
Finished HSR 3.2- I gotta admit, it was really good. Especially since things seem to be picking up steam… ||I’m going to miss the Flamechaser of Reason||
Going from the consecutive plot hammers at the quest conclusion to this is just hilarious tho

cant believe after 10 years summer 15 is still the hardest event
i was there 
kancolle?
yeah
kancolle the first gacha game with permadeath
pretty sure? not entirely sure but as far as im aware it was
aight
kancolle is ancient in terms of gacha games
easy to avoid if you aren't intentionally trying to sink them
i remember when i first started playing azur lane, which showers you with dupes for some ships, i got worried there was ship permadeath lol
then i realized that was the other boat gacha game
how does permadeath even work in a gacha game
if you lose a unit in a battle you gotta pull for it again?
yes
permadeath more like
moneydeath
kancolle is sort of maybe not a gacha game
you pay for dock space not to roll (like azur lane)
they're all dorks
Fucking hell
was only like 80-90 aix
i had to go through

im good can concentrate on other characters now
ah thats whatever
will make me go insane to try to hit 100%
zanis dmg is to consistent for me to care about that
its not like carlotta or jinshi where missing that 1 crit half of your dmg is gonwe
Im mostly struggling getting a good Capitaneus >.>
I don't think there is any other gacha game you can do this with

Welp new gacha dropped I guess
If this is on mobile u probably carry a pipebomb
meanwhile me playing 4 others
and tbh gfl2 ranks kinda low on my gacha totem pole, if i were to start dropping games it'd probably be the second one i drop (the first would be bd2)
nikke, ZZZ, and AL are my untouchables atm
kinda funny since AL is probably the least good as an actual game of the 5 that i play
but it scratches an itch none of the others do, that collector itch
500+ "characters" to get, gotta catch em all

I have a better understanding of powercreep than I did 30 minutes ago
It deals 9999 x 10^68 x 10^68 damage per second.
i have never heard of a bigger number in my life
This is genuinely atrocious
Literally in all my days I've never seen sheer blatant big number fixation like this
isnt that number higher than there is atoms on the earth
Is that number notations?
Yeah that'd 10 to the power of 68 times 10 to the power of 68
So ten with 68.68 0s at the end
Or about a septuagintillion
I hope I never see this word again
only a septuagintillion? those are rookie numbers
10^68 x 10^68 is much less than a googolplex, for example
and that pales in comparison to stuff like graham's number or tree3
tetration also generates some pretty big numbers really fast, though not as fast as the tree function
and i'm sure even bigger numbers (that have actual mathematical meaning beyond x value +1) exist
that said, if we're getting numbers like 10 followed by 136 zeroes, that's still kinda fucked
even a (comparatively) small number like that is pretty much impossible for us to visualize
so sleepy...

Thanks
I'm expecting a gelgoog soon either gacha or event
owo!
Dang she got no spoken line too
All GQ chars always has no spoken lines at first huh
It just recently they added Machu & Shuji's
They're pretty recent rush jobs, I think
Mostly due to the recency of the episodes
yeah i suspect when we get the GQX story mode after the series is done + give a take 6+ months
i can see them make the SSRs from the mail into the story mode
unless they dont expire i didnt check
last day of mermaid banner, sadly no luck on the free pulls so that's 200 mileage down the drain
but she is now proudly at the top of my nikke power rankings, easily my strongest support
i didn't spend any rocks on rerolling her OL lines (not worth for supports relative to rerolling DPS units) but i feel like i got insanely lucky on the default rolls i was given
lots of ATK and max ammo boosts
tbf siren can function as a semi-sub-dps
rerolling her lines wouldn't be the worst investment relative to other supports
sure but with how many DPS units you'd rather reroll, still not worth lol
depends on how many you still have to reroll
the list is endless since there are so many DPS to optimize
i've only really optimized SBS and alice
and i'm like 95% of the way to optimal RRH
but ofc the last 5-10% of optimization is what costs the most blue rocks to get right
stage 8 kraken with mermaid 👀
i really would like to get either mana or the wind asuka+rei team going so i can stop having to waste alice in this comp though lol
i should note that stage 7 is the last one where rewards increase so there is no benefit to pushing this far other than bragging rights
I can finally synchro to level 200
i just made the hugest blunder in HSR
fuck it, i will now make a bad impulse decision to pull for MLB mihara
was doing customized relic building only to forget to change the main stat from hp to attack cause i was doing it to quickly

going to use since it was mean enough to give me the crit damage too
60 pulls deep and i've pulled dolla, clay, and modernia. i am already going to regret this
oh baby things are comin up khaios
that was either 90 or 100 pulls, i think 100
at least i got 10 back from the scam recruitment benefits track
ok i'm gonna stop pulling here since i have her for the raid now and see what the next week of free pulls brings
if i don't somehow luck into 2 more copies off 7 free pulls, i'll go back to pulling
probably just pull one more dupe and then burn mileage on the last
trade offer
i receive: modernia
you receive: my blessing that you'll mlb mihara with your remaining free pulls
if i could enforce such a trade i'd take it
her status as optimal campaign DPS is gone but she's still good in fire weak raids (like this one)
she's still relevant!
i'd probably find a use for her in campaign even
not bad initial rolls for mihara either, though i won't be rerolling her yet either since i have other higher pri nikkes
siren likes machine guns, rapi and modernia both qualify
got 3x ATK lines and a max ammo line and some other random shit like crit
and she who won't come home from her throne still hasn't blessed my account
nearly 4b damage sheesh
i'm worried my other teams are just gonna die to mechanics i basically wasn't paying attention to because crown shield is such a crutch for avoiding damage lol
nm this appears to be a pretty low damage boss all things considered
also about 1.5b, modernia doing work despite having awful OL lines
basically same performance from pirate maid + SBS/alice comp. i got a new mouse and am even more shit at alice spam shots than normal so that's not ideal
pretty meh 700m from eva fire comp but not only do they have shit OL lines, ideally you use modernia/mihara off-burst here, not rapunzel. i just wanted horny nun's healing to be safe, not actually sure it's necessary
good showing from shotgun comp, just over 1b here. soda/drake's OL lines aren't even close to optimal, and drake especially would've gone nuts in this fight if she had any ele damage rolls

Least insane blue archive player
i don't get it
ended up subbing out rei for red hood in the final attempt, it did slightly better but not as much as i thought. rei's buffs for all the other fire units are significant so even though red hood did more, asuka/grave/d:kw did almost the same amount less
with a properly optimal team, rei definitely beats out red hood there
but also this boss sucks ass for pierce in general since there's nothing to actually pierce, so this team was kinda DOA anyway
man shotgun team needs bunny alice real bad
i see tove's stacks falling off all the time
rip, no way this stays below 3%
well, i lost... BUT I WON SINCE I GOT LUCKY AND ONLY HAD TO SPEND $20
LET'S GOOOOOOOO REWARDING SCAM BUSINESS MODELS
lobby screen + song combo was worth it, just like with SBS
sadly she replaces rapihood's burst lobby screen until the fabled day when we get more than 5 to choose from
also ended up buying the dolla skin, i said i'd sit on it and after 3 weeks it still occurred to me that i want it so yoink
all told i am $80 poorer after buying 4 skins (alice, dolla, grave, mermaid) this anni, which is actually better than i expected considering i saved $30 on the mermaid skin and won't be getting the mihara skin as i thought i would (MLBing her for the base burst lobby ani is what i'm choosing to do instead)
was it worth? probably not, but do i care? certainly not
hermann is so bad i need her
last day
gotta make my purchasing decisions tonight
i've already opted not to buy anything, as usual
i like the gacha skins but on principle i can't bring myself to buy either of em
someone on the sub got a triple siren + phantom pull
now y'all can't say anything about my triple cindy anymore : ^)
oh god i just realized hugo and lighter banners start tomorrow
my nikke luck today made me pretty happy and i'm feeling pretty good about things as that anni event closes out
can't wait for ZZZ to crush my soul with some lost 50s

i gotta say after seeing the brown dust 2 collab character skill cutscenes, that regardless of people being salty they're not horny enough (b/c that's just the sort of game BD2 is and the community it cultivates), they're super high quality--like visually very crisp and with good animation
it sorta bums me out to open nikke and have a skill cutscene play that has obvious pixelation/low res textures used throughout
like, to be clear, i love lots of nikke burst animations, but the actual image quality of them compared to BD2's is quite noticeable
i feel like shift up does some janky shit to compress images and animations, probably to conserve space on mobile devices, but it torpedos some of the quality
i know they're capable of very crisp sprites and good animations, all of the nikke idle/touch animations are imo some of the best in the business
but for whatever reason their base image and skill cutscene assets are just compressed to oblivion or osmething
okay
picked up the Alice, Liter, Sugar, and Dolla skins
based
not gonna go for any of the gacha skins this time around
unfort
what do I spend my monochrome on
occasionally skins, but they also convert 1:1 to polys
there are also some packs in the shop that you can buy with monochromes that give you an equal amount of polys + some leveling materials and dennies
so in theory if you want to convert your monos to polys, you should do it through those packs first (can only buy them once) since they're extra value
new on the left
honestly... looks way better
may all our hugo/lighter/whatever pulls be blessed
wow the new one looks way better, amazing what small changes can do
still not buying it over her base outfit but at least it might be worth for more people now since it was ultra meh before
hot
arcana skills
i was joking earlier but is this actually isabel cope lol
first things i always notice is a 40sec CD burst 2. thus far the only characters of that archetype who manage relevance are the pirate maids, and that's because they're a duo built on alternating bursts
as advertised though, it looks if you pair arcana with a normal CD reducer (say mermaid) + a nikke that reduces full burst time by 5 sec (isabel, vesti), you end up with proper CD reduction for no-delay rotations
her buffs outside of burst are kinda bonkers too and because they last 15 sec, they'd apply to the next (non-arcana) full burst rotation too
legit though, the only nikke who perfectly fits the mold arcana is meant to buff is isabel
isabel
- is electric burst 3
- reduces full burst time
- has a skill 2 with a cooldown that's reduced by arcana's B1
she's basically an isabel treasure but in nikke form lol
damn she got a nice rack 👀
ok for one, 
for two, she does, but in nikke that's like the buzz lightyear shelf meme
the real W of her design is the sheer dress with pronounced tummy
are you talking about the double thanatos lol
(not really thanatos but may as well be)
Yes
i had minimal issues just luring them to a corner and burst AoEing them down with miyabi/vivian
and before vivian was out i did that with miyabi/yanagi too
Idk, I just hate how RNG they are and how annoying they are
Luring them in a corner doesnt reallywork when one just keeps staying at range
Also no Hugo so far 😔
wait is his banner active or do you mean you're still waiting for it to be
must be EU privilege since i've still got 5 hours til they run in US
her burst animation confirms she's a dork just like phantom
anyway it seems to me like she's made for electric comps ft. isabel, but you also need a CDR B1 and another B2 for proper rotations, so i can think of
- isabel / rouge / cindy / arcana / blanc
- isabel / rouge / scarlet / arcana / trina
no idea whether it'll be worth bending over backwards to make isabel work
thing is that isabel actually is pretty decent, but her shortening full burst duration makes her kit DOA. now arcana makes that usable, but ofc at the cost of running other nikkes so who knows whether the end result will be viable
i am kind of a fan of what they've been doing with nikke kit design lately
they're targeting specific niches/pairings (even if not explicitly), which gives more interesting comp options while also minimizing powercreep since every new nikke isn't made to be good everywhere
god, i do not like the bubble march hard mode stages
they do be hard
ohayooooo
heroes, tier 2 defenders, tier 3 gunners
should be enough for hard 7
and easily gets you through challenge wave 12
yeah i got to challenge 20 with that strat + some healers occasionally sprinkled in
but yes, bubble march hard mode is actually challenging
abe is enough sustain for getting all the rewards
if you want to push challenge past like 15 or so, then yeah, probably start using medics too
anyway, i see they released vesti isabel cope kit
why tier 2 over tier 3? is there something i dont know about them?
if you're succeeding with tier 3 defenders, then you can probably still keep using them
tier 2 is just what i used
its just, theyre the same cost so idk why i would use them over tier 2
it feels like im missing something
tier 2 has more survivability, tier 3 has more damage
ohhh
ye
(for context, tier 2 give themselves a temporary shield so their effective HP is higher)
i was wondering why they were dying so fast
tier 2 has a shield
also i feel like upgrading hasnt been worth it at all so far
if you're only using the regular bubbles, then yeah, upgrading is pretty important
if you're also using heroes, then you can get away with fewer upgrades
cindy in particular is busted
if you're investing the minigame perk currency into the perks that increase your base level (which you should be, they're by far the most important perks), then yeah upgrading isn't super necessary
it is necessary in challenge mode though, since the cap for you is level 50 and the enemies will go way beyond that
yeah i have all of the trait points into level except for 10 which i have in bubble charge speed
i'm actually unreasonably hype for arcana
largely because i need a reason to use isabel to show off her dress skin
but also because i think she enables some really neat comps
liter/volume + arcana + isabel + scarlet + trina is a banger comp solely because it has almost none of the usual suspects but might actually be quite good
always like to see some interesting niches being explored
that said, it's probably not a coincidence that 2 pilgrims now have gotten nikkes specifically made for them lol
probability of pilgrim treasures decreasing steadily
doro support where
pirate maids :^)
nice sbs support : ^)
i must say though
why is it always electric nikkes getting team buffers/supports lol
all the other code types have basically no buffers/supports for their type of damage
electric meanwhile has... s.anis, x.maiden, trina, treasure exia, and now arcana, off the top of my head
justice for other codes! gives us element buffers for things other than electric!
man i just realized if arcana was a re-enter b2 nikke, the comp with scarlet and trina would go so hard
since trina burst actually buffs isabel too
sadly you'll have to cycle between arcana burst paired with isabel and trina burst paired with scarlet
i have high hopes for this team tho and i'm super happy it can co-exist with all the usual suspects, always love to get some use out of otherwise forgotten nikkes, especially ones with unique mechanics
it being an electric comp is also nice since it gives raid viability as one of your 5 teams, even if i will continue to bitch that it's seemingly only electric teams that get this kind of synergy lol
finished bubble march 
also completely forgot til now that trina has good healing so it won't even be one of those awkward comps where your party slowly dies lol
thanks for the tip on the difference between tier 2 and 3 defenders, literally all that was holding me back

early
i already got lighter
but now im conflicted
i can get hugo now
but i could bank it for yi xuan
Im like 3 off of soft pity for Hugo
But I have nothing really to get more rolls rn >.>
The correct approach 
hugo secured
2pc/2pc/2pc
im leaving him unleveled for the moment bc im out of money

lighter, jane, and vivi ate up every last denny i have
and lighter isnt done. i still gotta level his wengine
by his i mean the random koleda wengine i got
Lighter has aged so well as a unit ngl
yeah he just keeps getting more dps children to feed
lost 50 but was early, only 30 pulls. can't complain too much, lighter guaranteed now
funny that i lost lighter 50 to the stunner he's replacing tho
someone on the nikke sub requested a boobs tier list lol
(would be fine, except one was posted there recently, by a certain degenerate y'all might know...)
😎
i can't hold a candle to the azur lane bros that do measurements and shit to rank the shipgirls bust size tho
cutie's home
didn't track the pulls but pretty sure it was 70 or 80, basically another soft pity wonder
50 pulls for his wengine, thank god i won the 75/25
and now no hugo for me, yixuan saving time
I thought about getting mihara from mileage just for the 5x5 but i think ill cope for the gambling a bit longer
woo got Vector v1 now

Bro wanted that big payout
That reminds me
I still havent build Chimichanga
Maybe once he gets buffed in patch 3.X
the comp i'm seeing is
miranda/s rosanna/mihara/helm/dkw
incidentally, the players doing that (and not putting rapi/mihara together) run something like crown/siren/rapi/x ludmilla/maid mast
x lud can also be alice, apparently
s rosanna notwithstanding, i'm also missing miranda
I already had Lycaon is the problem
this looks jank as shit lol
And since I have Lighter but dont have Ellen, he isnt even useful 😔
but if it works...
miyabi/soukaku/lycaon actually goes quite hard but it's hard as fuck to play
Just have to get lucky I guess
Problem is I also have Yanagi
So I have little reason to switch to a different Miyabi team
i actually have wanted to use a different miyabi team since yanagi is the only electric DPS i'm good at due to harumasa skill diff lol
and i hate her being tied at the hip to miyabi when i need to use her for an electric weak stage
Grumble grumble
I just wanted the twink 😔
Guess I have to get lucky or Im getting the raven lady whose name I already forgot
in other news, i tried out astra/eve/lighter against DA pompey (which doesn't even have good buffs for this team atm) and easily cleared 20k lol
i was barely getting 20k with koleda
like final 5 seconds i'd break the 20k threshold
now i'm getting easily 50% more to like 30-35k and that's with shitty play since i'm not really used to the rotations or lighter's mechanics yet
lighter really do be an insane buff for eve
granted i also have his wengine which turns that up to 11 but still
the difference is wild
like 50/30/20 between lycaon, lighter, and hugo iirc
hugo obviously just during stuns, lycaon/lighter for stunning and keeping up buffs
the idea is apparently to cover mihara in burst while boosted by miranda for massive dot crits?
there's basically no reason for him to be on field outside of stun since to my knowledge there aren't any buffs he needs to set up beforehand
Ye I assumed as much
so it's basically all dazing/buffing with lighter/lycaon until stun, then set up 2x hugo chain attack + ult/EX
Just means you barely get to see his animations lmao
thing is that all of hugo's animations are fucking long so he ends up being on field for longer than you'd expect for a guy who does like 3 things then leaves
also with 2 stunners you do stun a LOT so you see hugo often anyway
totalize refunds stun
so yeah you will just stun a lot
hugo is very present in the team
Ye but from what I understand you mostly only see his chain attack, EX and ult
His basics basically dont exist
if you want that you can always use some off-field stunners like trigger, pulchra, and soon to be ju fufu
Eh, Ill see
If I get lucky I get hugo, if I dont, I get the raven lady
Realistically she is the bigger upgrade to my account anyway
... although her being a new class means you kinda have to pull her signature engine
assuming yixuan is as OP as miyabi, i feel like i'm gonna soon run into a wall where very few new characters are actually a noticeable improvement to my account lol
i guess we're still waiting on a "modern" physical DPS
since even the rat is dated relative to new releases
(jane is still very good though and more importantly she's super forgiving/easy to play so i feel pretty comfortable with her as my main physical DPS, especially since i can use burnice or vivian to back her up)
but miyabi covers ice, yixuan will cover ether, eve+lighter covers fire, and yanagi ft. whoever the hell else because nagi is insane covers electric
and because yixuan is a weird new class who apparently can either carry or support, she'll probably be a crutch even when you're not using her to ass blast ether weak content
Im still not sure if Im doing something wrong with Jane ngl
The assaults arent as big as those in showcase videos
i'll be honest i just faceroll anomaly characters and proc them as many times as possible
i know people get big brain with saving anomaly procs for right before or inside stun windows and i just CBA
I mean same
that's probably how people are hitting insane assaults
i caved in to kuku since i don’t have many units i want to get rn
i failed
she evaded
direct thy rage at a certain arms dealer
15.14%
considering i was only just barely outside of 10% as of about 18 hours ago, i'm kinda pissed
champs arena matchup today had someone named jien
idc how lopsided the crowd vote was, i'm cheering against jien
forgot to do the chalenge stage for solo raid 
rip
oof
the more i use of the mermaid gacha skin the happier i am with my purchase
her burst ani + voicelines are way better than base
funny turn of events since before anni i was unenthusiastic about mermaid's skin but considered mihara's skin as good as bought
the only lines i figure a bunch of people will remember her for are "ooh ahh" and "ovulating soon"
now my opinions on each have completely flipped
though a large part of opinion on mihara's skin changing is her burst animation arguably being worse than base
especially when used in the lobby
bad people
her gacha burst line is "swim with all your might toward the light" and it matches the animation really well
the misheard line got a bunch of traction tho
base's is "tell me the story of victory" which is also good but i'm not a huge fan of the animation
The skin burst is really good
But I actually really like the base burst
and it's not $60
understandable have a nice day
though gacha skins for annis are technically $50
since the free pulls you get knock $10 off the max price
i lucked tf out and got mermaid's after spending $20 so it basically ended up costing the same as a normal skin for me
which probably also colors my opinion of the skin lmao
i remember when people were bashing the skin and i'm just sitting here like "y'all are fools"
tis a great skin
i was one of them i regret to admit
but i can't justify buying it on principle
it has joined SBS's gacha skin as one where i don't regret my purchase at all, and i don't think i would even if it had cost me the full $50 (which ofc i went in expecting, i just got pleasantly surprised)
all the other gacha skins i own cause me to at least occasionally ask whether i really shoulda bought it
except naga's i guess. that is also a really good skin
naga's is the closest one so far i've considered buying
still ended up not doing so
but good lord
so i guess gacha skins have been more hit than miss for me, since i really like SBS/naga/mermaid and i'm lukewarm on helm and marciana
cindy's is also great, but unlike at least one curmudgeon in here, i like her default skin
though my opinion of helm's skin is strongly affected by the fact she has another really good skin that isn't $60
it's a good skin with a great burst ani (wish it didn't have a bunch of low res assets tho) but her dress skin is nearly as good for $40 less
oh well
wait who's the curmudgeon, i love cindy's default
it's why i didn't buy her gacha skin lol
i'm not gonna put a target on their backs : ^)
I'm thinking of getting Cindy's pass skin
but they have made their distaste known in here before
10b qp wouldn't even be enough to do all the skills for what's left of my servant roster
that shit ramps up fast
i ended up at 4.37% this solo raid
actually fell less than expected, kinda figured i'd fall below 5%
when i actually did the challenge stage i ended at 2.97%
i didn't expect to fall damn near 5% in 18 hours
i figured i'd be at like 12, 13% at worst
stillc hasing my first top 3% placement for the best border
about 3.5 hrs til nikke maintenance btw, if you wanna get your dailies done beforehand
servers should be back up in time to do them after maintenance, but i like getting them out of the way early in case maintenance gets extended or something blows up or something lol
whats do people usually run for relics on rememberance trailblazer?
2 pc speed and 2 pc speed

Broken keel for planar I believe
support planar of choice
speed
a lot of it
could run a speed planar too
of which i think theres just 2 but neither do anything for rmc
so not worth it. just chase speed subs and 2pc/2pc speed
also factor in that the herta shop lc gives speed so you may not need as much speed as you may think you need raw
Ksenia a snitch fr
me when the rapid training campaign ends in azur lane
True!
(don't forget that the high school girl mastered True Magic btw)
Good event 
mastered true magic
needs some fr*nch church lady and a demon kouhai to unlock her full potential

- Free skin for Yoohee's signature weapon for 1 Withdrawal Receipt
- Added covenants are Yoohee and Ullrid for this update
- Yoohee's customisable outfit added to the store
- obligatory story event w/a platformer minigame similar to Doodle Jump if you ever played that
- Daiyan, Vepley, Littara get their expansion keys
- New permanent minigame called Coordination Drill, it's pretty much soccer but with extra steps

only standouts atm being Daiyan/Groza/Ullrid
huge for gfl1
mr. pizza spreads
nikke ||arcana is apparently another marriage certificate nikke lmao||
||oath mechanic when||
also apparently ||dataminers have found K assets, including her shooting pose, in the patch files. she may finally be getting released from NPC jail||
oh also mihara got buffed
limbus company canto 8 spoiler ||THIS CHAIR THIS CHAIR THIS CHAIR||
||THIS CHAIR IS AN EYESORE||
anyway, ensnaring chains and dragging chain cannot be removed now
which i assume is their way of fixing her for indivilia
new nikke released
directly seeks legal marriage with the commander
people post rapi cuck memes, again
cycle never ends
the chair looms in the distance
the chair is an eyesore
apparently she still sucks for indivilia though so
idk whether their fix just didn't work or if that wasn't the reason
i kinda think it's the former, the way the indivilia/mihara interaction sounded to me was that it was actually indivilia's self-applied debuff immunity that was causing issues (by preventing mihara's DoT from ever being applied again or something)
couldn't do my Nikke dailies last night
gotta turbo through them before reset today
New patch, they fix Mihara's DoT can't be removed, a big buff to her in AI Indivlia. Now people can clear this easily.
#nikke #nikkegoddesofvictory
mihara outdamages rapi here
def wouldn't say she sucks
mihara being +7 while rapi is +5 isn't that meaningful either; even if they were equal and rapi ended up outdamaging mihara, it wouldn't be a big difference
i would say that if she's competitive with rapi in the fight where she was originally doing like half rapi's damage, that the buff did its job
also this almost certainly means i'll grab her with mileage, whereas before i was considering passing
i was just reading comments of people complaining their mihara damage didn't seem to change before and after the patch, but it's possible they were just stupid and/or bad 
what is pirate mast doing in that comp tho, surely x.lud is the move if you want a flex MG
probably her buff
mast sitting there getting stunned for half the boss fight lol
I think mast has on-FB buffs
i know some content creators are hyping crown/maid mast
i guess crown+mast gives full reload speed and that's what they want
oh
I have a bunch of reward-up nikkes for this event already
pog
i wonder if this is noticebly better than just using privaty (and if so by how much)
privaty would provide more ATK and consistent reload speed (since mast occaisonally loses her stacks and has to start fresh)
she also doesn't stun herself for 10 sec every 3 bursts lol
mast gives crit rate (and ATK, but less than privaty) and synergizes with mermaid better
privaty's max ammo decrease might also be annoying, but with 100% reload speed that shouldn't matter too much
though i imagine over the course of a fight you get several reloads outside of burst which will suck for MGs (though crown+resilience is still a really fast reload so they shouldn't lose all their charge time)
if it's a small difference then i'd sooner just use privaty since in solo raid there's no way you're using mast on her own, you're saving her for use with anchor
top ranker used mast solo
albeit with rapi instead of mihara
their rapi comp was crown/rapi/siren/x lud/m mast
their mihara comp was miranda/dkw/mihara/helm/s rosanna
anchor nowhere in sight
top jp ranker used same rapi team as top overall ranker, just replacing x lud with alice
again, no anchor in sight
jp number 2 used the standard maid duo with sbs
jp number 3 ran the same rapi and mihara comps as top overall ranker
global number 1 also did
so between na 1 (overall 1), jp 1, 2, 3, and global 1, four of the five used solo mast with rapi
wild, guess i don't know shit
then again, this isn't a wind weak boss
you'll prolly want mast/anchor duo'd for SBS comp for wind weak bossing
more importantly though plebs like us without whaled comps and a fully invested roster can't really afford to spread out good nikkes like that lol
ye
ngl tempted to waifu pull for Arcana
neat design but i'll be skipping
i really don't see a world where i get much use out of her right now
i'm actually strongly considering pulling for her because she's the centerpiece of a comp (whether it's good or bad) and relying on the wishlist for that is a PITA
that's fair, it's just a comp i never see myself using
i regret not pulling trina when i could for the same reason
whereas trina i currently am using in arena and might use in electric weak solo raid
ofc i also don't exactly have a pull shortage so i can basically do what i want lol
have like 70 advanced vouchers and nearly 200k gems
we'll see what MLB mihara takes and then i'll decide on arcana
i'll have to rely on wishlist for mlb mihara
but that's fine
she's plenty good even at 0lb
i basically don't consider stat benefits when deciding who i want to MLB, at that point if i really cared i'd be going for core 7
i just want her burst for my lobby lol
for the fabled day when i can use more than 5

there's no way that isn't a top demand at this point, and imo it'd only drive up sales since it'd mean people don't have to worry about being selective with displaying skins they purchase
surely they implement it some time soon
i hope they remove the cap entirely but i'd settle for even doubling the cap to 10 or something
about a week ago that'd sound as cope as ||k fans finally getting their waifu|| but i could sorta see it
the more nikkes and skins we get the more pronounced the issue is
and i don't think raising the cap to 10 meaningfully cahnges that
and they've put so much work into lobby customization, imo it's one of the main things they've done right compared to other gacha
i'd rather they just do away with it
i mean same lol
but i'd accept baby steps too
but a system like azur lane where you can just select an arbitrary number of random lobby screens? yes please
obviously keeping the ability to mix and match music and backgrounds too
The biggest bait banner ever, but ulpianus is really good 🤔
If only i didnt already have everyone else
doro sighted
also with infinite lobby screens i'd actually feel good about showcasing nikkes (with skins) instead of just burst animations lol
that'd be nice since it means i would occasionally enjoy the skins i've bought for lesser used nikkes
like my dolla dress skin
unless the community fucks up and votes a bad skin for rapi i'll be showcasing that one for sure
struggle of having zero restraint and owning so many gacha skins is that i have too many to show and feel obligated to use them to justify the purchase lol
Btw @long tree we have gotten some pretty detailed leaks on Cartethyia
Both her forms are relevant, the small one builds up buffs, the big one cashes them in for beeg damage
max pot dorothy is also really good

Nah, i am not insane
Also realitically i should b saving my funds
Whats up next, blaze alter?
Thorns alter first it seems
If it wasn’t for Exu Alter on the horizon I’d probably be going for him
yeah we got
thorns
blaze/yu
entelechia
el banana
mon3tr
the lems
and i need to get all if them, damn
i'm going to have to skip thorns and blaze so i have a chance at the others
The onyl one of these id be comfortable skipping is blaze so well see what the future holds for me lol
hey on the bright side they're all non limiteds (except yu and exu) so if you believe hard enough you'll just get spooked in the next banner
True...
wait what? did free pulls for mihara end after maintenance?
if they have that'd be weird since i'd expect them to last for the full banner
more likely i'm just being dumb
especially since if they ended that means you get fewer free pulls on mihara than mermaid
oh they brought grave digger back for challenge stage
isabel cope
i don't have any of the 40% bonus nikkes lol
and i'm not pulling arcana so i don't ahve her either
so i'm once again stuck doing some jank 30/30/20/20 setup that gives me no real freedom
Reed will be in the shop in a week and ines will be later, so for now its between typhon and swire 🤔
is that even a real choice or did swire get buffed?
Oh no, from a gameplay perspective, typhon is 100 times better
But who cares about power, i am a merchant merchant

Oh huh
Cartetythia doesnt need an ult to get to her big form, she can access it any time, even in exploration
@long tree guess youll have your tall exploration character 
blessed ferry
hmm
is anyone here buying the Stellar Blace Complete Edition on PC
i completely forgot it was getting (got?) a PC version
right in line with the nikke collab i'm sure
that's why people are trying to speculate about when the collab will drop
preorders are up on steam
i may get it... perhaps
you need the complete edition for the in-NIKKE skin
eighty buckaroos
that four pass skins
you can redeem the key until mid-November
so you don't gotta get it right away
just saw a video on the nikke sub of an arcana+isabel comp with three b1 CDR units (mermaid, rouge, liter) so you just spam isabel burst lol
jank and certainly suboptimal but funny
key
steam game
granblue noises intensify
I mean the key for the NIKKE skin
yeah i know
point is, granblue never did keys on the steam versions of their games
only the ps versions
ahhh
almost done with chapter 27
ended solo raid at 18.64%
