Gacha Chat

[glossy latch]

Like Aemeath is not quite my character but her mecha form is sick and you actually are in it a lot

[slow raft]

was around release

[runic ether]

and then in ruina they state iirc that you need to be... 20? to be a fixer?

[glossy latch]

Mornye is good other than her prosthetics having heels (????)

[slow raft]

when canto 3 was the newest content

[slow raft]

21 i think

[glossy latch]

Im fond of Lynae despite basically just being a typical gyaru-style outfit

[runic ether]

so unless limbus company was breaking the law around that... which they'd be hunted by the head for, then sinclair is of age

[slow raft]

breaking the law
in the city
imagine

[runic ether]

heh

[slow raft]

limbus company headquaters were fighting of arbiters and claws daily just so they could do a little bit of child labour

[runic ether]

it would be kind of funny if the reason the whole plan of limbus company headquarters went up in smoke is because the head is chasing them down over minor labor laws in regards to sinclair having been 20 not 21

[slow raft]

"even im not crazy enough to mess with the IRS" type deal

[runic ether]

[glossy latch]

At some point I might actually play Limbus if you keep talking about it that much not rn tho I have too many gachas as is

[runic ether]

dont treat it like a gacha anyways

u can freely grind for all ids and ego

except walpurgis but those are far more limited and rarely as necessary

[slow raft]

honestly, if you dont want to play another gacha just try ruina first

[runic ether]

true!

[pastel bear]

I TOLD YOU! IT'S! GENETICS!

[slow raft]

it goes on sale again i think

[runic ether]

play library of ruina

[glossy latch]

I certainly dont need another game on my backlog lmaoooo

[runic ether]

dont backlog it simple

[glossy latch]

Gachas dont count

Also whats Walpurgis anyway?

Are they special IDs or just early releases of IDs?

[runic ether]

walpurgis is a sometimes type of event where they release fanservice ids

and i mean fanservice as like

fan service

where they are referencing lob corp and ruina stuff

it has lore tie ins during their events but the actual event remains playable

[slow raft]

its the limited banner essentially

[runic ether]

but the banner to pull on only comes around...

sometimes

[slow raft]

they invented it to get more money but that didnt work either

[runic ether]

yeah its basically the only true limited banner

[slow raft]

because they let you just buy the ids on the next walpurgis banner anyways

[runic ether]

yeah more or less... every id and ego released in limbus goes to standard

and you can freely craft them after a week

only other restriction is the last season ids

you need to wait until the next season

[slow raft]

im truly suprised that there are people who fell for the whole "you have to wait a week" gambit

when i first read about it i was like "surely this wont convince anyone to roll lmao"

but it did

[runic ether]

its crazy

there is literally no fomo involved other than "you cant use the id for a week" and ppl still gamble

fwiw i do so too cus im lucky

[pastel bear]

if it helps, as soon as I started Ruina I didn't stop until it was over

[runic ether]

sometimes too lucky such as getting lik 4 renclairs

[glossy latch]

Main thing holding me off is that Im still not sure if the gameplay is gonna work for me

[slow raft]

thats fair

[runic ether]

yeah i get that

[glossy latch]

Might give it a shot eventually™ tho

For now I have like ... so many games to play

[runic ether]

the thing is... ruina is way better gameplay

[glossy latch]

And two exams to work on

[slow raft]

i think the gameplay might legit be the weakest part of the game, esp compared to ruina

[runic ether]

limbus simplified it for the sake of it being easier...

but i do think the limbus gameplay is pretty solid ultimately

its significantly more engaging than hsr for instance

[slow raft]

brother i am writing my bachelors thesis rn, tell me about it

[runic ether]

also cus pjm hasnt really held back on some bosses who will genuinely beat you senseless if you dont read

[glossy latch]

Honestly, as someone who wrote his much worse than hed like to have

[runic ether]

even if ppl meme about winrate being a genuine solution... they can and will put pretty great roadblocks

[pastel bear]

Ruina last stretch I will always love you

[glossy latch]

I highly recommend focusing on it and getting as much feedback from your supervisor as you can

[pastel bear]

people complain about you but I will always love you

[runic ether]

which last stretch

cus i can think of a set of goated after goated fights

[pastel bear]

||everything until the final reception||

[runic ether]

||rat reception to the head reception true||

[pastel bear]

legendary run

[slow raft]

oh im way past that
im submitting this thing on friday
and its not gonna be even close to my standards lol
i did get alot of feedback from my supervisor and from that feedback it seems my standards might be too high, so heres hoping

[pastel bear]

good luck guy

[glossy latch]

Oh wow

Good luck then

[runic ether]

if we dont hear back from guy then it means that the thesis ate him

[pastel bear]

I call dibs on his fishing rod

[wispy goblet]

It has come to my attention
that allegedly Promeia's set in 2.7
has Ice DMG as its 2pc effect

[digital marlin]

well i managed to get 100% by doing the Area quests that involved climbing the mountain.

its weird i can reach 100% with only 74% chest reached but i will take it

[glossy latch]

Its just how WuWa (mostly) does things

[old galleon]

union arena tcg apparently has new nikke maid arts and

uh

well i'll leave it to y'all to judge

the ones i've seen are rapi red hood, marian (yes, marian), red hood, dorothy, scarlet, and cindy

so basically the popular pilgrims, overspec, and og

but missing a few other popular ones too cough anis cough

[rapid bough]

thus far, this has been how all wuwa zones i've explored work except fucking desorock highland which actually needs 100% everywhere for some reason

imo it's much better than their explorable content is like 120% worth so you don't need to do literally everything, having to track down that one puzzle you missed that doesn't show on any map is fucking annoying

[summer hornet]

Ruminating

Insights appreciated

(DHIL has a lightcone, but it’s currently on DanTE. Sparkle is on DDD, and consistently paired with e2 Garcher)

(I have e1 SW for Acheron, and Black Swan, but I don’t have the other cats)

[glossy latch]

Genuinely a tough one tbh

[rapid bough]

also i must agree, i'm more fanservice-brained ofc but thus far i think all designs have been mostly fitting for the characters and either tastefully hot or badass, or both (lupa my beloved, galbrena)

ofc there's some left on the table (the absolute force of nature that muscular augusta could've been)

[long tree]

Acheron to make your simulated universe runs not a pain in the ass

[rapid bough]

and funnily enough despite what cantarella does to my neurons, i actually think they leaned a bit too hard into the fanservice because her jiggle physics are like 150% anyone else's and it can look kind of silly

as misty put it, "breasting boobily"

[glossy latch]

True

I didnt pull her mostly for that, despite her being bis for Phrolova

The other reason is that I dont have Phrolovas signature

[rapid bough]

it only seemed to be an issue during cutscenes, not in gameplay

something about her walking animation just sent those thangs thangin

uwu what's this

[digital marlin]

Huanglong 100%*(sort of)

[summer hornet]

Already got Phainon e2 lol

Good point though

[runic ether]

outside of kafka and sparkle, none have a real use in meta teams without significant investment

arguably u need investments there too to hit the reqa

*reqs

[old galleon]

this quest started off really dumb but i'll relish any opportunity to get one over genshin

[toxic cloud]

This one server I'm in is full of og AK fans so they've just been pooping on endfield story

game might be a kusoge 💔
but I like it

[old galleon]

god genshin's a moron

his plan to not become shigure's son is to become aldo's son instead

good news: genshin gets his comeuppance, courtesy of mommy

bad news: wedding's off (for now)

[runic ether]

zhuang fangyi has a really nice face

[toxic cloud]

Argor someone told me lb6 was mid

that's gotta be troll right

they only liked 4 5 7

[old galleon]

maybe not, but people are allowed to have incorrect opinions

[toxic cloud]

1 was ok to them and 2 and 3 sucked

[runic ether]

oh i see mi fu and fangyi are an item

[rapid bough]

felt like this took me forever into soft pity but we got there

galbrena saving time

[glossy latch]

Good luck

[rapid bough]

just checked, 71 pulls

unfortunate but i can't emphasize enough how relieving it is that weapons in wuwa are guaranteed

if i had to worry about losing a 75/25 i would not have been pulling for this

weapon banners are still abysmal dogshit as a concept so it doesn't absolve wuwa of the sin of having them

but at least it's a form that doesn't feel like complete shit to pull on

[wispy goblet]

thank you standard pulls

thank you again standard pulls

[rapid bough]

only a few months til her favorite item

[wispy goblet]

thank you again again standard pulls

C1 Drake now

at some point I should MLB Maxwell too
only need one more copy

oh apparently that's my MLB copy for Zwei
I already had two lamo

whoops
oh well

[rapid bough]

my wishlist has been set up specifically to MLB instead of get core upgrades on meta units for a while now

lobby screen meta > 2% stat increase

[wispy goblet]

maybe I should chase copies on Julia for favorite item

nvm I already have two copies of her

I really should cash these in at some point
I keep hoarding for weeklies but I have a lot lamo

and it's harder to track how many dupes I have

[rapid bough]

before my recent 200 standard pull bender, i cashed in all the spare bodies i had for every unit i hadn't already MLB'd so i could properly see how many dupes i still needed for each character

i kept spare bodies for those i had already MLB'd though

now i just +1 core a nikke for the weekly

[wispy goblet]

I can take Privaty to Core 3 at this point lamo

I guess I should actually level up her item so I can do her favorite item story

[rapid bough]

social pulls today gave me a helm... one of my only two c7 units

(the other is alice)

[wispy goblet]

I am really low on maintenance kits

Emma Overspec

[old galleon]

for better or worse, she's not an overspec

but still not bad

the only currently playable overspecs in the game are rapi red hood and mihara bonding chain

God help us if nl call something "ideal"

[runic ether]

i feel like he'll say cathy before ideal... i just feel it

[slow raft]

All that needs to happen for that is a chat member asking nl for his take on the wuthering heights movie

I'm so happy to see PM spread here

[old galleon]

glenn's 5* and stellar skills were shown on stream and they look bonkers for a freebie

wind sword character, so attacks are wind slash

he's in the same attacking niche as sesta and shigure es, but that's not a fair comparison

it'll depend on his internals but he has potential to be very good

after 3000 years, nekoko is finally real lol

(real as in playable)

af damage display adds 3 digits
game is saved

cap in astral archive challenge is still 1b - 1, but that's fine

[rapid bough]

how many months have you been playing now?

[wispy goblet]

325 logins according to this

[rapid bough]

damn

i don't remember how long it took me to hit 60 but i feel like it was significantly less than a year

though i do vaguely recall you were mostly just logging in and spending battery for the first few weeks/months

[wispy goblet]

I think that makes sense?
I played during 1.4 to farm for the Zhu Yuan rerun
then maybe 1.7 to farm for Yixuan
then all of Season 2 so far

yeah my early gameplay was just doing the basic dailies and spending battery as little as possible

[runic ether]

i have not missed a log in since launch

im at like 530 something goodmornings new eridu

[rapid bough]

i don't think i've missed a login since starting, but i haven't played since launch so my total is probably less than misty's

time to open the game and find out

[wispy goblet]

just did Ether 6 of Operation Matrix with monophys
felt pretty easygoing
Might do Ether 9 and 12 under this rotation

[rapid bough]

i'm at 561 and counting so misty if you played since launch you're probably closer to 600

Well tbf even her own son doesnt see her as a mother, i wouldnt pit her in ex either

[old galleon]

she's in 19, for the number of lightning bolts headed demeter's way

then stealth add an exclamation mark

[mental acorn]

it's peak

[mortal iron]

Easiest theatre

[summer hornet]

Scathach lower than Cu is hilarious

...Then again it's Cu Caster specifically

So it might be due to the whole Odin Eye thing

[digital marlin]

HOW IN HELL IS CAENIS SO HIGH

almost everyone in 60 range makes no sense to be there

[summer hornet]

Ashiya Douman and Shutendoji should be way lower

[digital marlin]

somehow Medea lily is higher than her regular form

[summer hornet]

That's genuinely evil

....it's almost comically low

I guess it's cause she killed her kids?

[digital marlin]

im convinced that Demeter is just trolling everyone

[slow raft]

Specifically got points deducted for filicide yea

[summer hornet]

Yeah that's unfortunately fair

Also I've double and triple checked the list at this point

Where are Anne and Mary

[digital marlin]

who cares about them

The real question is Wherei s Ivan

also did Tiamat score that low due to Singulairy 7

[summer hornet]

All I'm saying is that even with the Mary debuff and the skewed scoring, I think Anne could beat out Genderbent Sniper Grandpa

[summer hornet]

Probably Beast factor in general

Far as I can tell none of the Servants with history or potential of being Beasts/Threats to Humanity placed above 30 (aside from papa Hokusai and, for some baffling reason, Ashiya Douman)

[digital marlin]

Dam Tiamat was unjustly scored

[old galleon]

had enough helm and drake mats to get moran to phase 2

and i did decide on moran over privaty simply bc another b1 cdr

gonna be a while yet before either of them get to phase 3

[wispy goblet]

after a more thorough reading of CIssia's kit
I am now significantly less interested

my fear of a Caesar rerun in 2.7 has also gone down significantly

now I am wondering if they rerun Vivian or Miyabi alongside Nangong

[rapid bough]

thomas had never seen such bullshit before

this boss is a fucking sin

[digital marlin]

Ayo

Was waiting for the day for you tackle Holograms

[rapid bough]

i've tackled several holograms

this is by far the hardest one and it's not even close

it's not even because it's fusion RES to my mono fusion team either (though that is annoying)

it's that the fight has zero visibility and it spams wide area attacks at you that have like 3 different parts you need to dodge

and if you don't dodge you just die instantly

[digital marlin]

That's a recurring theme in Holograms especially with the projectiles

The high end ones are hell

[rapid bough]

i did just clear it with havoc rover/shorekeeper/sanhua tho

gave me hell doing so

and that's only level 3

i might have to find the devs and choke a bitch if level 6 is even worse

Good morning Yvonne fans

[runic ether]

hello ren

are u ready for her banner in 6 days

im p sure i'll have the 120 pulls to get her

[mystic python]

I dunno if other levels are any different besides having more HP and damage

Holograms have different movesets from the base enemy but I think that new moveset is applied to all levels

[toxic cloud]

Definitely trying to get ready

doing all that I can lmao

I should also have the 120 pulls

https://tenor.com/view/yvonne-arknights-endfield-arknights-arknights-endfield-yvonne-yvonne-selfie-gif-7089286716342609542

Practically skipped the gilb banner

[runic ether]

i skipped laev (i was likely never getting her anyways)

[digital marlin]

Some of the moves get new properties like Beringal have monkeys span and do Projectile attack after some of his moves

Ant remember if some of the moves that some of the rinacista ones had where present in all levels or only the highest since I may have killed them before I got a chance to see them.

[rapid bough]

it's certainly an adjustment, but i didn't expect people to get that mad about it

finally

not exactly who I was looking for

also not exactly who I'm looking for

i have yet to 100% rinascita or lahai roi but i'm not the least bit surprised if the consensus is that they're easier than huanglong

the chests are hell in huanglong zones

[rapid bough]

nikke hard mode minigame is beating my ass

still moderately fun figuring it out though, rhythm games are definitely not my forte lol

i see it's getting a lot of hate though and i don't really know why, other than the fact that the difficulty spike from normal to hard is very significant

[wispy goblet]

we are getting closer

should end up with 2647 ATK (including the DEF conversion) and 346 AP

[rapid bough]

i admire the commitment even if i don't understand it

[wispy goblet]

the two teams are
Grace/Yuzuha/Ben
and Miyabi/Ben/Lucy

the Miyabi team is way closer to being fully built
Miyabi is already built and Lucy just needs her core and maybe farming up a second copy of Kaboom so I'm not sharing
Yuzuha is also built but I still gotta farm up an entire Grace build

[rapid bough]

miyabi/ben/lucy is so funny to me

now that we have damage stats on the end screen, if miyabi isn't like 99% of that team's damage i'll be surprised

[wispy goblet]

in the calcs I think she's at least 80%

[rapid bough]

round 2 of nikke co-op is up

[wispy goblet]

fluctuates a little based on minor changes
and these calcs don't have the fully leveled discs on Ben
but Miyabi is 80% to 84% of the damage output

Ben is like 13% to 15%

[rapid bough]

bro thinks he's on the team

[wispy goblet]

Ben actually has a respectable 30% or so damage share on the Grace/Yuzuha/Ben team
although those calcs were before Grace's PU
and the team is also... not a very high damage team

man if I wanna keep up in PvP I gotta cash in some boxes

and actually overclock my gear

[rapid bough]

i recently bit the bullet and overclocked some gear for PvP nikkes... blanc, rapunzel, vesti (i even rerolled vesti's lines to hit a charge speed threshold that's important for her PvP performance)

not sure it was worth it since i feel like i'm in basically the same PvP spot as i used to be, but at least it's easier for me to find people i can beat

[old galleon]

do you not use vesti in campaign or tower

[rapid bough]

negative

[rapid bough]

maybe i should try to do so, but my elysion tower team is DKW/aegis maids/RRH/helm and campaign just shifts with elemental weakness but fire weak would be mermaid/crown/RRH/alice/helm

[old galleon]

obligatory isuka bullying with my shiny new toy

[old galleon]

fair enough

the idea is simply that vesti seems extremely good in mobbing contexts, like in tower or most campaign fights

[rapid bough]

she is, but i can't invest her for both PvP and campaign/tower at the same time, and i already have perfectly good campaign/tower options so i just focused on PvP for her

kinda awkward that the way OL gear works prevents having different role loadouts, but in nearly 2 years of playing the game, vesti is the only one i've had that issue come up with lol

[old galleon]

understandable

i don't even have her, but even if i did, idk if i'd use her in tower either, what with helm being what she is

it'd take a bunch of investment first, if nothing else

and my rocks are crying right now bc i tried to do some snow investment and uh

she hate me

[rapid bough]

rip

[old galleon]

kinda fucked up the setup the first time i ran it and only got like 1.5t (out of 1.7t needed)

ran the setup properly this time and once again ended up with an overkill score

[rapid bough]

nikke collab story honestly feels like they could've cooked if they made it longer

instead it just feels rushed, especially the last few parts

kind of a shame tbh

like, it's a collab story so i'm not expecting anything great, but it had a solid foundation from an already existing in-universe side story that overlapped surprisingly well with lycoreco

seemed like it took a mad dash to the finish line in part 2 which is unfortunate

[wispy goblet]

To be fair
This is the longest event structure they have

P1, P2, Hard

[rapid bough]

well hard barely counts since it's one story cutscene

the problem is the length of the individual story cutscenes

they could've fit more in if they wanted, but again, just seemed to rush the conclusion instead

[rapid bough]

ez

first try for all but the last which took me a few to get the grouping at the start right

[wispy goblet]

okay
based on my remaining IK membership time
and the remaining biweekly challenge cycle
I'm expecting at least 35 more pulls before patch's end
that would get me to 92 pulls
do I want to go for Nangong
and sig if I get a miracle

[rapid bough]

i mean if you're talking about getting nangong then surely you need to count the pulls you'd get during her patch too

[wispy goblet]

it would be nice to rip her straight off
according to this pull simulator
if I can get at least 60 pulls during the first part of 2.7
I should be able to secure her counting refund pulls

[rapid bough]

a normal patch has over 100 pulls so you're really closer to 200

[wispy goblet]

Jane is fully prebuilt
I can cash her and her sig in any time I need her

[rapid bough]

wait did you end up going deep into the spending event to get the selector?

[wispy goblet]

ye

I posted it when I got it lamo

[rapid bough]

i probably saw and forgot

why not just cash it in now

you know you want her lol

[wispy goblet]

but what if they add Caesar before I need to cash her in

(they almost certainly will not)

(I'll be using monophys for the Vesper Deadly Assault)

oh uh
did you do 2.6 story yet

[rapid bough]

nope

[wispy goblet]

oh

uh

pay no attention then

[rapid bough]

not like i haven't already seen vesper in the new hollow zero

[wispy goblet]

go do the story and the event when you have a chance

I enjoyed it

and if the opinions of the masses mean anything to you, people are up bigly on it

[rapid bough]

i have 3 gachas to catch up on story for and ZZZ is the mid priority of them (wuwa > zzz > gfl2)

[wispy goblet]

thinking of picking up a new real game
wowee

been bitten by the Cities: Skylines 2 bug

[rapid bough]

one day i'll get back into real games

though tbh wuwa felt fairly close to a real game... you can basically play it like an open world exploration game in the mold of botw and it's not massively different

of course the gacha mechanics hang over the whole experience like a storm cloud and it's hard to ignore those

i got snakebit by eu5 for a month or so when it first released, but it was the authentic paradox game experience that made me just want to wait for DLC to flesh things out lol

i recall hearing that cities skylines 2 was basically the same way on its release, but it's old enough that it's finally reached the point where it's fleshed out enough to compare favorably to the first game

[wispy goblet]

less more content has come out
and more mods have properly developed
but yeah

but also
there was a studio change for the game
which is normally bad
but the new studio has really put their best foot forward

[runic ether]

the good open world gachas have this feel too

genshin, for all its faults for instance in terms of the gacha content... the exploration is largely good as a whole and it feels like a totally normal game

[rapid bough]

ah yeah that'll do it

[maiden veldt]

why does the image look slightly deep fried?

[astral drift]

pan fried

[rapid bough]

it was reported at one point last year that they were working with com2us to revive/reimagine destiny child

was scheduled for this year even back then, so i'm not sure if this is an actual update or just drumming up hype again

[wispy goblet]

Hard 1 is kicking my ass

[rapid bough]

yeah lol it's by far the hardest minigame stage imo

[wispy goblet]

not having a clear timing on when to do the response to the call makes it feel hard

and that's not even counting not being able to track the rhythm

[old galleon]

i think of hard 1 as being basically mirrored halves of each other

and try to match the timing accordingly

(i still suck at it)

[wispy goblet]

yeah it's call and response

but when do you response

[old galleon]

the same timing as the call

which is why i think of it as halves

so like in the first "half" if there are four notes, i pay attention to when they drop and their rhythm in relation to the start of that "half"

then replicate it in the second "half"

[wispy goblet]

that's the part I get
but when do you start the response
some of the calls start on a delay
and that makes it really hard to track when to start the response

[old galleon]

someone who's more musically inclined can probably explain it better than me, but the "call" part and the "response" part are the same length, in terms of the beats/measures/whatever

so to track when to "start the response", i pay attention to the start and end of the "call" and where the notes dropped in relation to those endpoints

with no mods it's pretty free (not to pfc necessarily, but to clear)

gets quite a bit harder with all the mods

finally caught up to wuwa story

3.1 was definitely a banger

||entered expecting wife, left with daughter||

||was a fucking roller coaster and a half too, felt like it had three or four separate endings, but i anticipated the bittersweet note they left on. if this were a region-ending patch story it'd come as a surprise, but there was so obviously more to build toward in lahai-roi that aemeath is important for that there was no way they were gonna leave her story at "happy ending" for now. too many threads left to pull on||

||feels similar to cartethyia's story without the asspull at the end to make everything "right" again. instead they just set up what's necessary to do that down the line and i can appreciate that||

||i wonder if they'll get there as soon as luuk's story in the second half... i doubt it, but they did set up some sort of plan afoot there so idfk||

||also luuk is a certified real one. also also, to go back to the ult line discussion we had a couple weeks back, i caught his "my scalpel will etch your epitaph" line during his brief demo during the 3.1 story and that went very hard||

[summer hornet]

Ngl, it’s been a while and my brain is cooked - @rapid bough what’re the best rewards to focus on after getting the tickets?

Also just in general, this event was really nice

[old galleon]

dont' worry about that until hard mode is released, then you'd buy the run currency (with gems), clear all hard mode levels once, then spam the second to last one (which should be -11) for core dust cases

that plus event missions should get you enough shop currency to get just about everything else in the shop

in that context, buy out everything except the re energy, core dust, and credits, then with what you have left, you're probably buying core dust

you can also grab teh re energy if you don't have mucho f it, but you can't really use it that much, so it's up to you if you want to grab that

if you're not buying run currency with gems, i'd probably take the core dust cases first, then skill books

[summer hornet]

I'm definitely not buying currency with gems lol

[wispy goblet]

some of the most atrocious Bunny Milk play on the planet

also only T2 Moran
although apparently that's the big one

that's done and dusted for this cycle

[old galleon]

i really don't want to put in that much effort for this fight

[wispy goblet]

thankfully it's not a high damage boss
so I only had to reset once or twice for a premature death

[old galleon]

something about its mechanics makes me question my life decisions

[wispy goblet]

and that's because I got careless with a team with no sustain

I never figured out if there was a way to overcome the super-long invulnerability phase

[old galleon]

you only got one?

[wispy goblet]

no

I think it came like twice or thrice a run

[old galleon]

ye iw as gonna say

[wispy goblet]

where the only thing to shoot are the... shootable orbs

also I only figured out to destroy the hands like my third fight in

[old galleon]

also i've transferred nikke to my tablet now where it runs much better but has the unfortunate downside of, well, not having a keyboard and mouse i can use with it right now

[wispy goblet]

...not that I ever succeeded in destroying them all
except for my last fight

how many pulls

[toxic cloud]

Uhh 3

[mental acorn]

holy

[toxic cloud]

I kept getting wedges for the first two

[runic ether]

thats hell of a pull

[old galleon]

somehow ended up being faster than the slash clear (yuna is weak to thunder but this team is much less optimized)

[rapid bough]

got pretty lucky upgrading privaty doll so got her FI up to level 2 as well

sadly don't have enough to trade in for level 3 since i burned so many on moran

guess i'll figure out solo raid tomorrow

looking at the highest rankings, i should comfortably have 5 teams to put together, though i'm sure i will struggle more than the whales to make them all work

especially miranda/snow white and bunny milk teams... i am simply not big brain enough to optimize manual play for them

[old galleon]

i just don't like the fight enough to try to optimize it that much

it's annoying to me and i don't have that many iron attackers really invested

[rapid bough]

i haven't even tried it yet, what do you find annoying about it

[old galleon]

multiple super long immunity phases

also has a kinda annoying qte if your comps don't have any fast guns

the latter isn't as big of a deal, the former is a pain

[toxic cloud]

if she is dual wielding egos (again) ((red mist allegations never disproven))

and it really is solitude

like come on

it has to be sinking

[runic ether]

q bee surely is bleed/burn...

i wonder how they'll diff him from casettisault and leisault

[slow raft]

Yeah i was just joking since alriune did stagger damage in ruina

[runic ether]

oh true lol

[slow raft]

New status that combines bleed and burn

[runic ether]

call it blurn

[slow raft]

Everytime bleed triggers, so does burn

Imagine theres finally a unit that makes it so burn doesnt have to rely on dark flame so much and its just another walpurgis id

lowkey... he feels like they'll give him poise... idk why

I just realised the reason why they gave Singing Machine to Sinclair is meant as a reference to his feelings on prosthetics. "Nothing could make as facinating music as a human can...Nothing !". Sinclair I love you bbg but you do have some internal issues you need to work through.

on another note, im still stuck on i need a shirou and i feel like an idiot cause ive just now noticed that one of the reasons to use the jennifer saunders version of the song is that some parts of the instrumentation is that parts of it legit sound like the emiya theme https://youtu.be/hG05FVGQL9Q?si=9BsqT8K0gQOYydcQ

I wish HF and FSN got good adaptations

could you imagine the shirou saber AMV's

[toxic cloud]

Me too little one

[rapid bough]

i haven't watched any fate content since ufotable UBW, are/were people down on the HF movies?

[slow raft]

depends on the person but theres certainly grievances to be had with them

most of them stem, i think, from the fact that an entire route got squeezed into 3 movies

[pastel bear]

yeah the movie idea was bad

[rapid bough]

that makes sense ig

[slow raft]

which of course leads to some things being left out, many of which one could call essential

[pastel bear]

Kara no Kyoukai had the decency to do 8 movies

I also, to be fair, was not the biggest fan of HF as a route

I've managed to gaslight myself into believing Shirou's character development is good but it's the only route without a good resolution for Saber

[rapid bough]

i'm not surprised movie adaptations required things to be cut, i guess i was thinking that if each was ~2hrs then the whole trilogy would be the equivalent of about 18 episodes of anime which isn't super far off a 2-cour show

[idle grove]

sure the movie idea is bad but you know the alternative was a 12 episode OVA that would have resulted in the exact same issues

[pastel bear]

we could've done an anime like UBW

[rapid bough]

but of course constructing/pacing a movie is very different from a series of anime episodes

[idle grove]

sure it could have happened I just don't think it would have

[pastel bear]

I just think it's absurd that FGO makes the amount of money it does and we can't even be woke enough to use the funds to give a top 3 VN of all time a half-decent adaptation for 66% of its story

[long tree]

You must understand the money was spent on finding ways to make the fgo engine render even bigger women

[rapid bough]

i'm sure you think that was money well spent jot

[long tree]

I have limits to my tall women

3 days in a row i log on and the AIC has gone to shit

it cannot be this hard to make batteries

[summer hornet]

Can your power plants actually explode wtf

That looks photoshopped but I'm not 100% sure

[mental acorn]

it would be really funny if they did

like "every time you fast charge drones you have a 0.001% chance to put too much power in and it just fucking blows up your base"

although i find Liskarm Fucking Died to be the funnier part of this image

[rapid bough]

if the actual game had typesetting and fonts that inconsistent it would be literally unplayable (unironically, that would drive me nuts)

so i sure hope to god it's fake
