Kuro.....

[tribal patio]

It's invested team.

But if invested team can suck pretty hard - then it's not exactly that much better than HI3. That's the main problem, it's very debatable if HSR nowadays has better balancing.

[mystic pond]

they built their company off a white haired protag, its their staple

[primal kestrel]

Anime styles and white hair....

[hollow reef]

Not really
Kiana
Kiana og

Sanby lol

[primal kestrel]

Reviving that pink like 7 times but cant revive the Mom... smh

[scenic vapor]

That's Why Hi3 has better balancing despite..... Well having similar powercrep problems

[hollow reef]

Right?? But they can give us that once chick who looks like her

that's the biggest fuck you right there

[hearty tiger]

I LOVE KALLEN

[primal kestrel]

Subtle hint of her background and chao...

Yeah Im Hare...

[hearty tiger]

All of Kallen’s battlesuits are so fun, it’s a shame you can’t use them for anything now because they aren’t S ranks released in the last 3 months

[hollow reef]

Oh yea that's her name, hair

[hollow reef]

Do you not have all 3 sss?

fake fan

[primal kestrel]

Js do Er runs

[hearty tiger]

I am still working on getting one of them to SSS but the rest are

[scenic vapor]

Kuro has more White haired i think:
Liv, Karenina, Rosetta, Alpha, Galbrena, Camellya

[subtle lion]

Kiana, Kiana 2.0, Kiana again but blonde later one, Kiana's mom. Kiana's mom look-a-like, Unknown god, Kiana but sirin, Kiana's ancestor (yae/otto's girlfriend), Kiana's first ancestor, kiana's dad

[hearty tiger]

Already have, ER got boring when I gained access to Simulated Universe in HSR and the ZZZ one

[hollow reef]

I can understand sun and 6s, but the other one is not understandable

[hearty tiger]

They just do it better

[scenic vapor]

We talked about girls tho

[primal kestrel]

Isnt luna also white

[subtle lion]

who else is related to kiana

[primal kestrel]

[scenic vapor]

Yeah luna too

[mystic pond]

kebin

[gusty kestrel]

This hi3 talk in off topic is funni

[hearty tiger]

I got pissed off when they changed the default ER to be the stupid 3 round combat thing instead of an actual roguelike game mode

Made it so much more boring

[scenic vapor]

Jetavie

[subtle lion]

Kiana's bestie (the short one altho her hair is more gray than white)

[hearty tiger]

Her wife Mei

[primal kestrel]

We are in the server after all even if its a lil off topic

[hollow reef]

Phainon who is her ancestor in another game

[subtle lion]

Oh right Kiana's ancestor clone who is her principal and her aunt? I dunno i cant remember where teri stand in all of this

[scenic vapor]

Bruhnya, the Charachter with more variants ever made

[hearty tiger]

Phainon annoys me

[hollow reef]

[primal kestrel]

Teris is a clone of Kallen tho

[hollow reef]

the best written character in new er btw

[primal kestrel]

If you count this you got amber too

[hollow reef]

There's also big teri, kongmi teri

its a mess

[primal kestrel]

Captain verse

[hearty tiger]

Yeah but he just gives off that vibe of like, the edgy overpowered OC

I liked him better early in the story

[hollow reef]

That's ron lol

[hearty tiger]

Phainon does it way worse, look at his attack animations

[subtle lion]

Teri also technicaly her aunt since she was friends with both her parents and she is technically a kaslana born in around the same year as their parents sooo

[hearty tiger]

He has like 4 different ultimates

[hollow reef]

2

[hearty tiger]

Ron has 1

[mystic pond]

i still wonder if kiana in hsr is the person that acheron encountered

[hearty tiger]

People like to bitch about Ron but I think every single character in Amphorous does it way worse

[primal kestrel]

Ron being the testing subjet for powercreep

[hearty tiger]

Ron just being cool

[scenic vapor]

Amphoreus was slop imo

[hearty tiger]

It was

[scenic vapor]

Shaoji ass writing

[hearty tiger]

You are correct

[subtle lion]

shaoji ass writing coming to zzz

[hearty tiger]

“What if we made ER but again, and Kevin is there and Elysia is there”

[hollow reef]

Lets calm down

[hearty tiger]

No bro

I don’t want that

[subtle lion]

i still think this will end up as another ER

like

80% sure

[primal kestrel]

They going to leave that plot for 10 years and forget abt it later on

[scenic vapor]

It will

[hollow reef]

Kevin was done infinitely better than the other clowns

[primal kestrel]

Yo... stop

[hearty tiger]

Yeah but I just don’t want to see Kevin

[scenic vapor]

"We are dead and we talks with you"

[hollow reef]

[hearty tiger]

I played HI3 I get the point

[mystic pond]

there are two characters mentioned in her story that sound like kiana, i wonder if they would ever revisit acheron

[primal kestrel]

I dont want 700 hour of yap that can be said in 3 lines

[hollow reef]

I played hi3 and majority of the cast get mogged by the side male characters

[scenic vapor]

Amphoreus 1000 phylosophical words to explain "Water is liquid"

[subtle lion]

domain expansion

Wall of text

and probably shit i dont really want to know about

[primal kestrel]

Welp its so Hoyo to bring one of the Big trio for the Hype of veterans and forge ahead with new charas using that hype

[scenic vapor]

Look at Wuwa getting CW

[hearty tiger]

I hate Hi3 story with a burning passion, Himeko dying was the peak of the story and then it just turned into slop for the next 70 chapters

[mystic pond]

im actually surprised we went this long without a single kiana expy

[scenic vapor]

Surely kuro doesn't do the same

[hearty tiger]

I swear they just started pulling things out of their ass

[scenic vapor]

[gusty kestrel]

I liked fu hua arc and HoI arc

[subtle lion]

genshin doesnt have a bronya yet
HSR doesnt have a tuna yet

[hearty tiger]

I still find it hilarious that the big twist of Amphorous is that it’s basically just ER but everyone already knew that going into it

[gusty kestrel]

Who is kiana in genshin?

[hearty tiger]

“We are looping” holy shit it’s almost like your entire fucking planet IS AN INFINITI SYMBOL

[mystic pond]

hasnt it been rumored for years that she was the cryo archon

[subtle lion]

unkown god

[primal kestrel]

For what i know since de did the yeah Hsr is all in the same place as Hi3 they going to blend the story and add the "Buff" kiana in that story to make a Huge "Impact"

[mystic pond]

or is that fan cope

[scenic vapor]

Only Hi3 vets knew it, The non Hi3 vets were blind on doing it

[lone torrent]

Asmoday

[subtle lion]

just a rumor

which i am still hoping to be true

[hollow reef]

No its just people speculating

[hearty tiger]

If you mean she’s coded like the Kiana elf then maybe

[mystic pond]

i hope its either her or a cocolia, hsr robbed us of not being able to use that mommy

[gusty kestrel]

Why dont we explore the area ahead of us later...

[primal kestrel]

[hearty tiger]

Cocolia my beloved, she could’ve been so much cooler

[primal kestrel]

Killed in the first arc

[subtle lion]

too bad she died before reaching absolute zero

literally

probably our fault

we kinda burned her

[hearty tiger]

Still the best arc

[subtle lion]

its been a few years now I cant remember how cocolia died

[hearty tiger]

We killed her

[subtle lion]

all i remember is some giant robot

and fire lance

[hearty tiger]

I wonder what Erudition MC will be like

We will probably get a mask

[subtle lion]

and the epic soundtrack that I still listen to this day

and remix with proi Proi

[primal kestrel]

Bc the rest ws js shet

[subtle lion]

if theres one thing I will always have a posible opinion about hoyo is that their OSTs slaps me

[hearty tiger]

The Amphorous songs were kind of mid

[subtle lion]

i like the CG songs

lemme actually go get a sample of Wild fire and proi proi remixed

[hollow reef]

Speaking of giant robot

finish the damn robot hoyo

dude has been at 99% since 2016

[subtle lion]

nahhh that shit not getting out

[hearty tiger]

So true, that shit also pissed me off

[trail hare]

maybe bro will finish on hsr

[subtle lion]

oh sick we can have the audio play without downloading it now

[hearty tiger]

What is ZZZ does a crossover with Tears of Themis

[subtle lion]

go to around 4:00 or 4:10

[primal kestrel]

[dusky wigeon]

S5Ger said something about Rossi not appearing for 50/50 loss for Tangtang and I interpreted it as limited chars not being 50/50 options for loss anymore at all

[dusky wigeon]

and thx

[lone torrent]

oh this, yes FUTURE chars WILL NOT appear in current patch's previous banner anymore

but past chars? nothing changes

so you cant offrate rossi on tangtang but still you can get yvonne or gil

[dusky wigeon]

[lone torrent]

idk if I'd count quota pulls as "free" but I get it

[unreal vigil]

Had one. Used it. Tangtang dropped.

[dusky wigeon]

I pulled more on Yvonne after getting her just to get Dossier

technically more pulls

https://tenor.com/view/perlica-cute-bird-girl-feline-feathers-gif-7404647746885153064

as long as I get Rossi, I don’t care, didn’t really want Tangtang

[unreal vigil]

I was at 12 pulls from a 6* guarantee and she dropped a little bit earlier. Basically the 4th 50/50 was the good one.

[dusky wigeon]

@lone torrent, your clues are full, can you exchange pls, so I can send some junk to you

i been optimizing my xircon production layout i forgot to dijiang

[neon tiger]

time to go into the mine

[lone torrent]

do you know calculations for water usage in facilities?

is my assumption correct?
if a pump provides 1 fluid / second, one pump is suifficient for two buldings that use 1 unit of fluid per two seconds

[neon tiger]

yup, your assumption is correct

[wraith karma]

What am I missing?

I'm hardstuck at lvl7 until the outpost fills up enough bills

[lone torrent]

depot node

[wraith karma]

Depot not maxed?

[lone torrent]

yes

[dusky wigeon]

gotta upgrade everything

[wraith karma]

I thought i did, ill check again

[neon tiger]

all buildings that where stuck on 2 got an additional level, so depot, forcasting and exchange

[wraith karma]

Yea i got forecasting and exchange for sure

Guess i didnt do depot

[dusky wigeon]

@neon tiger, do you know if 3rd battle stage in IS-6 has some special mechanics? I got completely overrun yesterday

[wraith karma]

Thanks

[dusky wigeon]

it’s the first battle on the 2nd floor

so wondering if there maybe is some mechanic I still don’t know exists

it’s the level with the catapult

[lone torrent]

did they fixed metastorage?

i cant select cuprium part

[wraith karma]

Also @neon tiger what's soup²'s skill level prio?

...what i do wrong?

[neon tiger]

considering those stages selected are entire RNG, I cant say to much, but IF it is the stage I think about, the only mechanic specific to that stage is, that the 4 enemies to the left move early when you attack them

[neon tiger]

AI chan just being a troll

[lone torrent]

[dusky wigeon]

oh!
yeah, that was it…
Thank you!

[lone torrent]

it's endover

[wraith karma]

[wraith karma]

I see

[mystic pond]

fuck man, im behind in both zzz and arkights, and im lazy

[wraith karma]

All these years, and it seems this is the first time i tagged a mod i guess

[neon tiger]

funny enough my AK alt can clear Guided Tour 10 ending 3, but for hell fails to clear ending 2 on Guided Tour 5+

[wraith karma]

It seems i suck at IS6

I had no problem with IS5 and below but i just can't get past ending 2 in IS6

[hollow reef]

Sometimes i think she knows which emotes to use, like some of them are very accurate to the situation

[lone torrent]

aichan self aware

anyashock

[neon tiger]

ending 2 is technically shit tbh. ending 3 is by miles easier, despite its limitation

[dusky wigeon]

there was some para-psychological experiment done where it was confirmed that humans can somehow “magically” manipulate random number generators

[neon tiger]

and Soli, your account has more tools than my Alt account; my main easily does up to tour 12 without exploits

Happy Birthday, Jean!

︀︀
︀︀You're just in time. I've received a gift from the Knights stationed in Nod-Krai. Would you like to open it with me?
︀︀According to the letter, this ornament was crafted from stone found in the region. And since you've just returned from Nod-Krai, I'm sure you're far more familiar with its sights and creatures than I am.
︀︀Ah, this must be... a Mandragora. I remember seeing one in a compendium, and this carving is incredibly detailed.
︀︀The book says so little, and I'm certain it's nowhere near as lively as witnessing them in person. Why don't you tell me more about your encounters with those creatures along the way?
︀︀There's no need to hurry. I've already seen to today's affairs, so we may speak at leisure.

[primal kestrel]

[neon tiger]

maybe getting a freaking run with >50 MAX-HP would make fighting Sui easier

[hollow reef]

finally here

[neon tiger]

my start is always the same, Raidian/Specter/any healer

[wraith karma]

My raidian isnt maxed yet

Guess i should play more is6

[neon tiger]

just use support units in that case

[wraith karma]

What skill do you use most of the time on raidian?

[primal kestrel]

https://youtu.be/Sq9VtAEBTcM?si=RYuOlLXY58nKimwi

[mystic pond]

@hollow reef

[wraith karma]

The melee tile one?

[mystic pond]

this is the hooded lady

shes so hot

shes a crow thiren

[neon tiger]

depends on the stage and items, I actually actively use all 3

early on the 2nd skill

[brazen geyser]

omg they didn't make her like elysia

thank you zzz devs

[mystic pond]

thank god

[hearty tiger]

Number 3

[neon tiger]

3rd skill when I need more DPS; 1st skill when I either need to tank (some of those stages are like that) or when I have the risk coin, that enemy have 150% HP but take 5% HP/s when blocked

[hearty tiger]

[brazen geyser]

okay now i watch special program cause i just woke up

[mystic pond]

crow or some type of bird, maybe flying gameplay

[hearty tiger]

I want number 3 immediately

[mystic pond]

white haired ojousama

[wraith karma]

Interesting, okay

[brazen geyser]

1 and 3 are on my list

[hearty tiger]

https://tenor.com/view/one-peak-one-piece-one-piece-cry-its-so-peak-gif-13413926760013023520

Is the Mei expy lady a bad guy? I’m very behind on the story

[mystic pond]

i need her, looks like acheron/mei and has her english va whos so goated

[hearty tiger]

Oh I need her too

Her and white haired lady are must haves for me

Depending on if either of them are after Cissia I might have to skip Cissia

I can’t miss out on such peakness

[neon tiger]

speaking of that risk coin:

[mystic pond]

cissia fights the raiden expy in the trailer

[hearty tiger]

I saw, which made me think Raiden expy is a bad guy

Cause isn’t Cissia part of the same faction as Zhu

Sort of

[mystic pond]

well shes tops

but we arent 100% whos bad or good yet

[mystic pond]

yup

[hearty tiger]

Ah

[hearty tiger]

So IPC but ZZZ version

[mystic pond]

theres a bunch of police officers in this game lmfao

[hearty tiger]

I mean it makes sense

ZZZ is a much more urban setting so it makes sense that most of the people sent to deal with problems would be law enforcement

[mystic pond]

not a bad thing just funny

[wraith karma]

Yea it's great

The best one is the -40% skill cd

But makes you auto use it

[hearty tiger]

Cissia is kind of stupid though, I dont think she’s the same quality of cop as Zhu lol

[wraith karma]

Like.. when do you ever want to not use it

[neon tiger]

I have actually a decent amount of cases

[mystic pond]

[dusky wigeon]

with Public Officers it was kinda 50/50 so far on intelligence, like Qingyi and Jane are pretty smart, but Zhu Yuan and Seth weren’t the brightest

[neon tiger]

especially ending2, since you want to time your skills

[mystic pond]

zhu is smart, shes just too trusting and can be a bit naive because of her innocence

[hollow reef]

bottom right, thats all i need now

everyone else is nothing

[hollow reef]

please give her explosions

i beg

[dusky wigeon]

naivety counts imho, but I know what you mean

[mystic pond]

i hope shes a S, i need a meta smol bomb running around

[soft yoke]

@indigo karma did you dm me?

[gusty kestrel]

But seths adoreable :(

[wraith karma]

90% of the time it's more useful than not

[dusky wigeon]

oh! I do like him as a character, I just don’t think he’s very bright

[neon tiger]

99% of the time it will screw you over in ending 2 bc skill timings are entirely off, ending 2 is bursted forcused

[indigo karma]

That happens

[wraith karma]

Maybe that's why i keep failing p2

Ending 2*

[hearty tiger]

People are talking about S rank Billy which would be pretty cool

[neon tiger]

nah, the ending is 💩 anyway 50 enemies alongside Sui, Sui not being vulnerable all the time, each time he enters vulnerability, he nukes the biggest operator+summon cluster you have, when he hit 50% HP he board-wipes, and when a certain time pasted, he simply deals 50 HP damage and end the fight, while also being the highest HP boss of all 6 IS

[dusky wigeon]

if S Rank Billy happens, then I’ll suspect S Rank Anby at some point

* Nicole

[wraith karma]

So essentially i need lots of quick redeploy, is what you're telling me

Texalter to the rescue?

I havent used her in a hot minute

[neon tiger]

yes, and Raidian, deployed in a spot where you dont cluster, IS is focused around summons, you actually can get raidians summons to 5 deploy at once and 0 DP cost

[wraith karma]

Ling must be OP too

Awesome

Haven't used her in a hot minute as well

[dusky wigeon]

I have to brute-force some stuff with AoE units
-# they cost so much DP, all of ’em

[neon tiger]

some meta units obv. make some stages easier too, Eyja helps with 'Feng Shui' stage, Logos being Logos, and dont forget our lovly tanks like Saria and Shu

I dont see me defeating Sui with this on F3

[hearty tiger]

Apparently Promeia is in the same faction as Zhao, Dailyn, and Banue

She’s also the “executioner” of that squad, while Dailyn is the “judge”

So when Dailyn says “yo phone linging” it means that Promeia is being sent to kill you

[cyan crown]

this has to be ragebait 🥀

[hearty tiger]

https://tenor.com/view/zzz-zenless-zone-zero-dialyn-gif-10123829804645372181

[cyan crown]

just make her playable already

all these vita references in hsr and she's still not playable

[hearty tiger]

Vita?

[cyan crown]

makes my skin crawl

[cyan crown]

Yes

[hearty tiger]

I’d love vita in HSR

Wouldn’t surprise me if she’s a late story patch drop

Similar to Cyrene

[mystic pond]

i know this because shes in the recent story

are you behind?

[hearty tiger]

I still haven’t finished the haunted hotel story with Victoria Housekeeping

[mystic pond]

[cyan crown]

we pray she's a high budget character

wait hold on do we?

[hearty tiger]

Yea I’m a tad bit behind

Just a smidge

[cyan crown]

hoyo reselling the same character

classic

[mystic pond]

lol

[hearty tiger]

I’ll catch up eventually don’t worry

[subtle lion]

Me

[hearty tiger]

You’ve gotta be fucking kidding me, Yidhari is rerunning with Nangong

Now I have to pick between Cissia and Yidhari

I won’t even get to try out Cissia to compare

[brazen geyser]

well who do you have on your account

[mystic pond]

snake or octo

[neon tiger]

@wraith karma I did it, even had 7 HP left

[hearty tiger]

The thing is I don’t need Yidhari, Cissia would likely be way more useful to me

But I like Yidhari as a character more

[mystic pond]

do you not have any 60's?

[hearty tiger]

Nah I haven’t ranked up to unlock level 60 yet

[brazen geyser]

isn't cissia bricked because she's just a seed support?

[hearty tiger]

I thought Cissia was a main dps

[mystic pond]

no, but she is another electric attacker

[neon tiger]

@dusky wigeon

[hearty tiger]

Like I don’t need another ice DPS with Miyabi but Yidhari is very funny

https://tenor.com/view/hammer-game-explode-gif-15267202

Big hammer gaming

[brazen geyser]

well they're used in different scenarios

[hearty tiger]

Oh wait Yidhari is rupture?

I thought she was attack

Damn I don’t have shit for rupture characters lol

Still want her

[brazen geyser]

how long have you been under a rock

[mystic pond]

do you have the goat

?

[hearty tiger]

I am a bug after all

[hearty tiger]

Who

Lucia?

I do not have Lucia but I also want her

[wraith karma]

https://tenor.com/view/zenless-zone-zero-zzz-lucia-ears-ear-gif-14329964286105056623

[brazen geyser]

since you got yixuan just aim for lucia first

also do you have any stunners?

[hearty tiger]

Ew no

[brazen geyser]

what?

[hearty tiger]

Stunning is boring

[brazen geyser]

.

they're essential though?

[hearty tiger]

https://tenor.com/view/lucia-zzz-lucia-zzz-meme-goofy-roll-gif-17357544185682818572

[hearty tiger]

Not for me

[mystic pond]

shes so cute, one of my fav characters

[hearty tiger]

Yeah I pulled for Lucia when she came out but didn’t get her, still waiting on the rerun

[brazen geyser]

this has to be ragebait wtf

[hearty tiger]

Same with Yidhari but her rerun came at an unfortunate time

[hearty tiger]

I mean i genuinely don’t play any content that really requires it

And most of my teams just kill stuff anyways

[brazen geyser]

you'll eventually need them though

especially for certain teams

[hearty tiger]

I mean I have Trigger, she’s a stunner I think

That’s about it that I can think of

[brazen geyser]

she is but not used all the time

[wraith karma]

https://tenor.com/view/lucia-elowen-lucía-elowen-lucia-elowen-zenless-lucía-lucia-gif-15975371203032252087

[brazen geyser]

honestly if you pulled ju fufu or dialyn your yixuan team will be good to go

[hearty tiger]

I did pull on Dialyn, just didn’t get her

And ju fufu I don’t much care for

She’s silly but I dislike her gameplay

[mystic pond]

lmfao zug you are starting to make me feel bad, it sounds like you pulled on everyone and got almost none

[hearty tiger]

That is simply my way of life

Neo likes to tell me just to get all of them but I always have to budget for one character because I don’t get early pulls

Best I can do is maybe win a 50/50

I’ve gone to 75+ pulls on the past 9 banners I’ve pulled on

[brazen geyser]

https://tenor.com/view/aod-angels-angel-angelofdelusion-angels-of-delusion-gif-6690199684212505541

[hearty tiger]

I’m the soft pity warrior

[brazen geyser]

this might just be a cursed account zug

[subtle lion]

She's mostly just for Yixuan team

You can probably use her somewhere else but like lighter exists

[hearty tiger]

Nah it’s how it goes in all my gachas, HSR is the same

I’m just lucky I can win so many 50/50s otherwise I’d have literally no one

[mystic pond]

she has the best wengine designever

[brazen geyser]

can be used for rupture teams and then evelyn

[hearty tiger]

Shungus was a 50/50 win

[subtle lion]

Oh yeah manato also exists

Forgot about his broad chest

[brazen geyser]

i would say something about it but ai chan stalks everywhere we go so no

[hearty tiger]

I’ll probably just end up pulling for Yidhari because I really like her

[brazen geyser]

just get lucia first since you have yixuan

[hearty tiger]

https://tenor.com/view/zenless-zone-zero-zzz-yidhari-true-yidhari-murphy-gif-12473737986325324093

[subtle lion]

Im getting Yixuan's wengine cuz she cope af without it

[hearty tiger]

You say that as if she’s rerunning anytime soon

[brazen geyser]

she might

hoyo likes fucking people over anyways

[subtle lion]

ZHU YUAN POTENTIAL WHENNNN

[hearty tiger]

But we don’t know, and I’d rather not pass up two characters I’d like to have just for a support for a character I already get good mileage out of

[subtle lion]

SHE'S BEEN ROTTING FOR LITERAL AGES

[hearty tiger]

I want Zhu to rise from the ashes and become a T0 dps, girl needs a pick me up

[mystic pond]

i dont really understand why they skipped over her for buffs

[subtle lion]

Ellen got buffed but not Zhu Yuan

[hearty tiger]

She needed it arguably more than Ellen did

[brazen geyser]

ellen bias I guess

[subtle lion]

Zhu Yuan needed to be buffed cuz before aria, ether was liter in the barren for dps options

[hearty tiger]

Fr

[mystic pond]

they gave my goat S anby like 3 buffs lol

[subtle lion]

It was either just Yixuan or no yixuan for ether bosses

[mystic pond]

my M4 sanby eatting good ngl

paired with my seed my electric team just be eating

[subtle lion]

Zhu Yuan rn needs a crutch from Dialyn to keep nuking

And since her chain and ultimate actually has a pretty high multiplier

[hearty tiger]

For literally no fucking reason

[subtle lion]

Also didn't anby just get buffed once?

[mystic pond]

[subtle lion]

And she just appeared again when other characters got potentials

Along with Ellen iirc

She got buffed during seed patch

[mystic pond]

she got buffed before the potential stuff

[subtle lion]

Really?

[mystic pond]

yea

[brazen geyser]

how do you not know

[mystic pond]

she got buffed after release, then got buffed again later, then got potential

[subtle lion]

Cuz I mostly ignored her due to how cope she is without the other members of the Defense force

[mystic pond]

she makes a great team with seed and trigger that i use

[subtle lion]

Her teammates are either seed, trigger, orphie

Other than that

Better just let her retire

[mystic pond]

i mean

how many charcters have more than 4 teammates

[brazen geyser]

https://tenor.com/view/aod-angels-angel-angelofdelusion-angels-of-delusion-gif-6690199684212505541

[subtle lion]

Miyabi works with pretty much any anomaly

Aaaannnd

Thats it

[brazen geyser]

that's just anomaly in general tho

[mystic pond]

well its a dumb question, gacha games arent gonna let you combo a bunch of different units, that makes no money in the long run

[subtle lion]

Anomally rn wants specific characters to maximize their dmg

Like you can't even pair Aria with Yanagi

I mean you can but its arguably worse than just having a mono ether team

[hearty tiger]

That’s what I do and it works for me

I am counter to the average gacha gamer

[lone torrent]

https://www.reddit.com/r/Endfield/comments/1rsjvas/poland_mentioned_npc_slipping_some_polish_in_his/ Poland (Kazimierz) mentioned

[hearty tiger]

“Hoyo HATES this one trick” and it’s just a picture of my account

[subtle lion]

Alice also very much wants Yuzuha in her team

Without her the dmg drop off is hilarious

[brazen geyser]

almost all anomaly wants yuzuha cause she's a good anomaly support

[hearty tiger]

[brazen geyser]

wtf is this

[hearty tiger]

Well yeah of course she would want her girlfriend

[subtle lion]

Yeah but most anomaly can manage with out Yuzuha

[hearty tiger]

My castorice team

[subtle lion]

Meanwhile Alice just really really wants her to be in the team

[brazen geyser]

that's not a castorice team...

[hearty tiger]

It’s got castorice on it so it’s a castorice team

[brazen geyser]

no it's not

[mystic pond]

zug you dont play endgame so it makes sense why it works

[hearty tiger]

Indeed

“Play my game”
“No”

[subtle lion]

Mono electric yanagi also just really isn't a thing rn

So far the best flexible pair for Anomaly units is Yanagi

There's also Vivian but she deals Abloom

[brazen geyser]

i really gotta get soldier anby and her teammates, my accounts lacks so much lightning units rn

[subtle lion]

Haven't tried the Harumasa buff

And I'm not keen to trying it

I'm pretty sure he just want another crutch team

[brazen geyser]

wheelchair

[subtle lion]

Buff the units

-Make team overly reliant on newer units

Call it a day

[hearty tiger]

I pull characters I like

If I don’t like their support I don’t pull for the support

[subtle lion]

So far my favorite potential awakened character rn is Lycoan

[brazen geyser]

you're eventually gonna reach endgame and will need them

[subtle lion]

He became somewhat useful outside ice teams

Can even work very well on shungus if the random kid is too busy helping her robot bestie

[mystic pond]

i finished sanby and burnice

[subtle lion]

Better than pulchra cuz shungus team FOR SOME FUCKING REASON has a hard time triggering her Aftershock effect

[mystic pond]

i love pulchra but shes not usable

[subtle lion]

Her kit just sucks rn

[mystic pond]

it does

[subtle lion]

And she loses to most stun units

[brazen geyser]

A-rank curse

[subtle lion]

It's cool that she get to apply stun off field but the meta rn is quick swap teams

They also seem to be pushing the stun meta with the new boss next patch

Time to dig Anby out the grave

[wraith karma]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/1448672344678596833.webp?size=96&animated=true

[subtle lion]

I got sanby and Lycoan

I unlocked grace too

But like

Her Abloom seems really abysmal

[mystic pond]

im actually working on grace now lol

[subtle lion]

Im not sure if I want to even continue unlocked her

[mystic pond]

i have her sig at like +3 and shes M3 so i was like why not

[subtle lion]

Her new mit deals continuous abloom iirc but its overly reliant on her ult

Her EX pulls enemies now tho which is neat

[mystic pond]

grouping is always great

[subtle lion]

She kinda wants a lot of on field time tho

Which

Is a red flag

[mystic pond]

nah lol

[mystic pond]

yea

[subtle lion]

It would've been fine if she was able to trigger Abloom off field

But her kit rn makes her like a worse electric Aria

And not even a good one

I dunno what they were going with the grace buff

[neon tiger]

still stupid fight, it ended up with me literally rotating since my Raidian died TWICE

[mystic pond]

bait?

[subtle lion]

I dunno she doesn't really fit with any team comps

[hearty tiger]

You say that but I still haven’t beaten the second story arc in the game

That day is long away

[subtle lion]

Maybe she's like a free enabler for Vivian

I don't really have Vivian so idk how she works

I don't see her working with aria since aria wants a lot of feild time

And she doesn't work with Yanagi either

Abloom makes her incompatible with Miyabi too and she takes just about anyone as a team

Ah ok she's like budget Yanagi but with Abloom instead of disorder

Which still makes her suck

[severe raft]

I made a video about why canon sonickid not a member on zzz unofficial ultimate no more in the main timeline he did go too far

[wraith karma]

Game wtf u smoking

[subtle lion]

@mystic pond oh okay grace only workable team is either Vivian or Burnice

[wraith karma]

Did someone say burnice?

[subtle lion]

Also potential 2 is apparently enough

[wraith karma]

Mocktails, mixers, ice

[subtle lion]

But going to 3 to 6 is up to you

[wraith karma]

https://tenor.com/view/burnice-burnice-go-burnice-dance-burnice-zzz-zenless-gif-775985986860153028

https://tenor.com/view/zzz-burnice-smile-gif-6983828365646858135

[subtle lion]

Most of her dmg comes from disorder still and 2nd is Abloom

Her abloom dmg is locked behind her ult and you can only trigger 4 ablooms (?) per ult

And since she's an electric character she can deal disorder with Yanagi so nagi is out of the board

She mainly wants most of the feild time so off feild anomaly works best for her

But this also means no Aria, no piper, no jane?, and no Miyabers (altho arguably it could still work on her), alice also workable but uh that's very coping

[mystic pond]

so whats the point lmfao

[subtle lion]

A budget abloom Yanagi

Also her special combo that comrs after the ult sucks

You don't want to use her

The one where she bombards the enemy with grenades

Its better to just do basic and alternate between special and basic since it doesn't interrupt her basic chain and that her basic also gives her stack

Sooo

Yeah her buff kinda sucks

It makes her more usable than before

But it sucks ass

[gusty kestrel]

The chargeup should not take so long

imo

[scarlet dune]

she's just a budget Yanagi

[gusty kestrel]

But yanagis good

As an anomaly electric agent

[earnest dew]

This shit never was here before update

[scarlet dune]

she's aight

[subtle lion]

It also doesn't really help since the anomaly application is slower than just having your ex which isn't that hard to trigger since her energy cost is so low

You basically gain more form just alternating between Basic and special than doing that bombardment

And you only get 4 pulse charge per ult anyways so having more bombs doesn't give you more ablooms

Her abloom can also trigger with any of her electro bombs meaning her normal special and ex special can do abloom

[gusty kestrel]

Ill stick with main dps grace

And sub dps vivi burnice

Sometimes main dps burnice

[subtle lion]

Grace wants a lot of feild time

Which made this buff automatically suck

[gusty kestrel]

Grace dps.!

[neon tiger]

you'll laugh, it actually was

[subtle lion]

It would've been fine if she did off feild dmg as a sub dps

[gusty kestrel]

They should give a buff to vivian

[scarlet dune]

she's really just made to be a budget ano driver

[subtle lion]

Vivian still works wonders imo

[gusty kestrel]

I still want vivi buffs

I like vivian

[hearty tiger]

I think we should get Miyabi buff guys

Jane buff when

[earnest dew]

I am pretty sure it was never there because it's my daily route every single day i pass from this area and I only saw them near the edge after this update otherwise they were in big open area nearby

[scarlet dune]

then you want them as late as possible so she gets something relevant

[subtle lion]

Not happening

Infact the exact opposite is happening rn

[scarlet dune]

they just need to accept that they fucked up, remove the freeze mechanic entirely and let her play the game normally

[gusty kestrel]

:3

[subtle lion]

Miyabi released with so much rainbow that they made the game environment actively hostile towards her

And introduce characters that supposedly work with her on paper but changed to remove that benefit

Introduce boss that makes her obsolete

All that shit and only got dropped from T0 to T0.5

[scarlet dune]

I don't even know how they want to make the next character work with that when they're already so scared of miyabi

[subtle lion]

Her ears are still on Tier 0

[hearty tiger]

[subtle lion]

Is nangong yu supposed to be ice?

I thought she was ether

[scarlet dune]

she's ether

[subtle lion]

🤔

[scarlet dune]

that's a set for a future character

they always do that

[subtle lion]

Was about to ask whos an ice anomaly that deals Abloom

[scarlet dune]

like we had Aria's with shungus, Seed's with yuzuha and all that

[lone torrent]

nah man it has always been here

[earnest dew]

It was never there near the edge

They were in nearby big open area

[subtle lion]

Welp

It's 3 am

[earnest dew]

Now they are not in that area but near edge

[subtle lion]

Time to sleep

[earnest dew]

It's daily delivery route

There is also that jump mechanic placed

Sometimes when I accept 3 frnds deliveries

I happen to run the same route

[gusty kestrel]

Is it really yuzhuas? I feel like its moreso for every support aside from astra

[earnest dew]

They were near that far away top left side tower

[mystic pond]

yes more anomaly

[hearty tiger]

Anomaly supremacy

Jane Doe on top

so, I was poking around some of the Warframe accessories and found this

it.. it just looks so terrible. Like he's surrounded by an old Windows screensaver.
I kinda love it.

[dusky wigeon]

I don’t know yet what it is, but good job!

[neon tiger]

its ending2, the most annoying one, sadly its only 1 of three times, I need to do it

[dusky wigeon]

for IS-6?

does it actually have story relevance or it’s just flavour text?

the little text I’ve seen so far mostly seemed like it’s only there to fill the experience with some text at all, like rogue likes do it sometimes

[neon tiger]

it has its own story, obviously only the opening scene and the endings are, everything inbetween is flavor text

[dusky wigeon]

oh thx! man, I already forgot what the opening even was atp

[neon tiger]

effectively, its about a yearly ritual to renew the seal on Sui, ending 1 is ||about fulfilling the ritual||, ending 2 is ||having a dream about Sui||, ending 3 is ||the true ending||

IS lores are more or less worldbuilding, since they are decopled from the main-story and place in more remote regions

rip, looks like I have to get Amiya this run

[dusky wigeon]

[neon tiger]

its a stupidly situational item, since we have like what? ~5 operators in total that even deal true dmg

[dusky wigeon]

oh

[neon tiger]

nvm the run just died bc of forced elite feng shui... one of the WORST stages without Eyja

well new run, one runkiller is already gone, I found the node for ending2 early

[neon tiger]

btw @dusky wigeon worst enemys in this IS: https://arknights.wiki.gg/wiki/Iron_Spearhead
https://arknights.wiki.gg/wiki/Sharpedge

[dusky wigeon]

I think I haven’t seen that one yet

I made the same mistake with that level where you can’t attack too soon again

probably should focus on one thing at a time

anyways, I made a ZZZ intelligence power scale for fun

I’m not biased

[novel sluice]

my unc self felt this one in my soul @errant fractal @blazing plume @hollow reef

[neon tiger]

I am only aware of two stages with them, and in both I consistently bleed HP, since unless you have rapid fire operators, you want to ignore them

[hollow reef]

Put haramusa in one braincell

[hollow reef]

The used money on other things is so real

[dusky wigeon]

I’ll need Uika for that

[dusky wigeon]

thought about it, but also he’s just a slacker

on the lazyness powerscale he’d win though

[hollow reef]

Bro would be #1 in that

[dusky wigeon]

[blazing plume]

Damn

You want to hear a sad story @novel sluice

[novel sluice]

did u get rejected again

[blazing plume]

Even worse

[novel sluice]

i'm listening

[quasi peak]

bro got rejected twice

[novel sluice]

only thing i can think of being worse than that is that he actually thought he got the job but then they 'mistook him for someone else'

[dusky wigeon]

worse than getting rejected can only be getting hired, my condolences

[atomic bronze]

Who's better dps thelema or elysia part 2?

For Ice dmg

[dusky wigeon]

which Ely?

also depends on the boss

[blazing plume]

So remember how I’m looking for a special someone?

So I did actually get a match with someone through Facebook dating (don’t laugh, I’m keeping my options open and my methods diverse)

Well, we started talking for a bit, did a bit of conversation. As is usual, the guy puts in a lot of effort and the girl just puts basic sentences. Well, no biggie.

Then she asks me if I have a WhatsApp number so we can move the conversation number there.

That set off huge warning bells in my head, so I told her I couldn’t get WhatsApp to work (that’s a lie, I actually did)

She hasn’t responded since.

So yeah, I was likely contacted by a scammer. I’m like 95 percent sure

[dusky wigeon]

nowaydas HLE is usually taking both spots if you have a team for her

old Ely is sometimes stronger

[quasi peak]

facebook got a dating app

[dusky wigeon]

Thelema… haven’t seen her in a while

[novel sluice]

well that's still better than being rejected out of a job you were sure you got

[quasi peak]

bro almost got his shit yoinked

[blazing plume]

Thelema usually doesn’t do dps anymore. Most people have her at higher ranks, and she’s usually for ARI farming as a support

[novel sluice]

at least you didn't went on a date and spent money just to find out she already had someone else, and she just wanted some free food

totally not speaking from experience

[blazing plume]

Yeah I’m glad that hasn’t happened to me

[dusky wigeon]

also I recommend asking HI3rd related questions in #👶beginner-help, #💁gameplay-help or even simply #🎮honkai-chat, @atomic bronze, your question might get lost here

[atomic bronze]

The latest one the hi love elf

[blazing plume]

Wait that’s happened to you?

[atomic bronze]

Ok

[novel sluice]

man the strikethrough is not working today

[dusky wigeon]

also in those channels there are typically more veterans around

[blazing plume]

Damn these girls ain’t worth it

[quasi peak]

you'd be shocked the shit people do for free food

[blazing plume]

Where are all the good women at

[dusky wigeon]

she should outscale Thelema in almost any circumstances nowadays

[novel sluice]

in fiction

[blazing plume]

[blazing plume]

Oh damn we’ve become the shut ins huh

[novel sluice]

well i'm not chasing skirts no more

but i feel bad for you

just do ur best

[blazing plume]

Speaking of which

Found this hilarious

[novel sluice]

you're more likely to actually have a chance if you get introduced to someone by a friend, going through dating apps is a surefire way to get catfished

Libraries, bars, parks, they’re going away

[novel sluice]

it do be tough times

[errant fractal]

lmao

[blazing plume]

My Reddit feed is weird

[dusky wigeon]

well… fuckass is fitting

[quasi peak]

clearly hasnt gotten past the login screen

[novel sluice]

they probably tried some ai bootleg version

yes those exist

[blazing plume]

Mors

[blazing plume]

Reminds me of the Palmon ads

Sorry Palworld

[quasi peak]

-# whats funny is pokemon's outdoing them at their own game

er their own stolen game ig

[blazing plume]

I require context

[novel sluice]

they just got more clout after the lawsuit i guess

this shit runs on the switch 2 and doesnt require like a nasa pc to run

[blazing plume]

Oh
Is it only on switch 2?

[quasi peak]

palworld's pc only iirc

[blazing plume]

No I mean winds

[quasi peak]

not like nintendo would ever let them on their hardware to begin with

[quasi peak]

yea

[blazing plume]

I might get it
Idk
I’ve never played a Pokémon game before

[quasi peak]

i mean bro can you see those waves working on switch 1

[blazing plume]

Except for maybe on the calculator

[quasi peak]

ngl id suggest starting with za for switch titles to get a grasp of it

-# hell if you wanna go farther back you can start with like sun and moon on the 3ds

[blazing plume]

I only play master duel on the switch 2
Getting it was a waste of money

[errant fractal]

go play za if you wanna get into modern pokemon games

[blazing plume]

Oh I can emulate that
(For legal reasons this is a hypothetical scenario)

[dusky wigeon]

if you like the idea of collecting units, but not specifically pokémon, then maybe SMT is for you

[quasi peak]

-# its better on the actual hardware

[dusky wigeon]

(Shin Megami Tensei)

[blazing plume]

The one featuring Dante from the Devil May Cry series?

[dusky wigeon]

well…

[quasi peak]

the emulators tend to run shitty and have a shit ton of glitches on their own atm

[hollow reef]

@quasi peak its time for you to get fortnite

suesei in fort

[quasi peak]

meeks?

[blazing plume]

I’m aware of SMT
But it feels too Japanese-y for me if that makes sense

[errant fractal]

no that one vtuber idol

[dusky wigeon]

Strange Journey is bit more “European”-y

[quasi peak]

persona's technically a spin off of SMT

[dusky wigeon]

if you’re interested at all that is

[blazing plume]

Wait what
I thought it was the opposite

[dusky wigeon]

no-no

[quasi peak]

SMT was first

[dusky wigeon]

MT → SMT → SMT: If → Persona

[blazing plume]

I have so many games to play I can’t pick up another one

Haven’t finished my first play through of requiem yet
15 hours in and I just reached raccoon city
And there’s crimson desert which looks cool

[hollow reef]

[blazing plume]

Shin megami tensei

[hollow reef]

Ah that

[blazing plume]

I tried playing Metal gear 1

I got stuck

[errant fractal]

[hollow reef]

steam back at it with sales

[dusky wigeon]

steam has categories for the male/female protagonists now?

[hollow reef]

Has had them for years now

[dusky wigeon]

oh wow

[hollow reef]

Its the tags

It also works in wishlist

[dusky wigeon]

tbf I only open Steam nowadays to run one of the Souls games, so I barely know much xD

[dusky wigeon]

Nevergrave
metroidvania

thx for recommendation

[hollow reef]

I use it alot since my games are there, some are on switch though

[hollow reef]

It just looked interesting to me

[dusky wigeon]

I like Metroidvanias

the higher the metroidvanianess-factor the better

[hollow reef]

Real

How about jump parts in metroid games

[dusky wigeon]

main reason why I like Souls games so much

[dusky wigeon]

depends

[hollow reef]

Like this

[dusky wigeon]

https://youtu.be/xRtLuQ3KN6A?&t=2233

not a metroidvania, but if it’s something like this, then I’m a fan

[dusky wigeon]

that’s straight up Celeste

[blazing plume]

What the hell

I’m too unskilled for that

[hollow reef]

That's just one section for a chest

some have emeies others have random jump parts

[hollow reef]

I did it like 5 times then remembered i have a dash

also forgot about this boss, ur technically supposed to fight him at level 10

[neon tiger]

than you don't want to see hollow knight path of pain

[hollow reef]

That looks easy ngl

[dusky wigeon]

https://youtu.be/CIn447GofYY

[hollow reef]

Celeste made me question reality

[dusky wigeon]

also yeah, what S5Ger said

[hollow reef]

i still haven't done farewell

[dusky wigeon]

Hollow Knight can be very brutal too

[hollow reef]

im on hiatus on celeste

[neon tiger]

and randomizer can hide a key item there

[hollow reef]

C sides are for crazy people (don't look at the d sides and other letters, modders are crazy)

[dusky wigeon]

Celese was too hard for me

I’ll try again one day though

[neon tiger]

blind, its a lot of try and error, even speedrunner need months to years to learn it deathless

[blazing plume]

Yeah no this doesn’t look fun

[hollow reef]

i still remember ch 3 of celeste, i had 500 deaths at the end

[dusky wigeon]

back when this came out I watched a YouTuber who actually clearly smoothed most of it blindly

he’s exceptionally good though

[hollow reef]

Wanna hear something funny, in a side farewell there's a section that the game itself teaches you new moves to use, then test you on them

[neon tiger]

https://youtu.be/0QnLG-JEzzU?is=O8y0CIET9SBGU_xM

[dusky wigeon]

not gonna say it’s not hard — it absolutely is, but it also looks harder than it is

you just zen-focus on the matter and enter a flow-state

it just works

-# it’s still absolutely hard though

[blazing plume]

I’m scared to ask what path of pain is

:skullemoji:

[hollow reef]

[blazing plume]

Stuff like this makes me want to quit gaming

[dusky wigeon]

this is the good part

[neon tiger]

in vanilla hollow knight, at the time you get there easy

in randos, can be a pain

its a test of skill, with a follow up reminder, to always be on guard

[hollow reef]

Hell to the yesss

[novel sluice]

[hollow reef]

If i looked at then ff13lr wouldn't be my favorite ff game

[novel sluice]

[mystic pond]

[hollow reef]

Also flor have you read dcko

[hearty tiger]

@mortal gazelle @opaque furnace
Since I have Jerrod's Spear F5, Klassic or MK11 Rain will start with two bars of power

[errant fractal]

i don’t read any comics aside from transformers skybound so no

[sick wagon]

Preferably I used Klassic since his sp2 bypass blocking
