[dry python]

Wtf ches back

Merry christmas ches

[lyric anvil]

Shit dps without thelema

[amber finch]

got mad and decided to take a 10(?) days break from this hell hole

[dry python]

Wow

[amber finch]

cay you’re like a month late

[dry python]

More like you were a month early

[amber finch]

oh yeah this is a better one

[sweet flax]

less to do with the dkey, more to do with hohe

as a dps, wod is a dead ring atm, ice weathers are infrequent, and over-reliant on thelema to properly play
as a loa support, she has no BiS case outside the tank, and is worse in comparison to all other loa supports, also loa is gonna start dying slowly now that a new ring is out
as a goi support, she isnt the go to support for the only goi dps atm (paws), and we will have to see how her situation develops

[dry python]

No one starts christmas season in August bro

[amber finch]

nuh

[amber finch]

its chesmas

completely different from christmas smh

[sweet flax]

[dry python]

[amber finch]

DO NOT PULL FOR THELEMA (not like she’s getting any reruns atp tbh)

[dry python]

Thel is hot

[sweet flax]

one of the better beginner teams you can make

hohe jk rc/kira

[abstract sequoia]

country pride tax?

[storm lantern]

jesus

what the whale

[slim blaze]

Ikr

[amber finch]

that + international shipping

and the usual weighing stuffs too

[amber finch]

i ned it to libe

[sweet flax]

you only need 1 chesney

[abstract sequoia]

yea the usual, its the same here for non-EU shit

scammed by shipping costs

even UK stuff, since brexit

[amber finch]

its gonna be like 40-50 dollers shipping for me or smt

[sweet flax]

become the shipping

[amber finch]

once i tried to order a fat seal from amazon

[abstract sequoia]

nah i won't work for amazon

[amber finch]

the seal was 20, the fucking shipping was ONE FUCKING THOUSAND DOLLARSSS

[abstract sequoia]

WHAT

[sweet flax]

ew fuck no, I meant deliver it yourself for a fraction of the cost

[amber finch]

IM NOT EVEN JOKINGG

[abstract sequoia]

ohhh

[amber finch]

I WAS TRYING TO GET MY UNCLE TO BUY IT FOR ME

[abstract sequoia]

yea thats doable

[amber finch]

THEN HE SHOWED ME THE SHIPPING LMAOO

[sweet flax]

https://tenor.com/view/anime-uhh-awkward-gif-1115120943304019191

[abstract sequoia]

where do they send it for 1k shipping costs??

[amber finch]

1.015 usd to be exact (there was some cents too)

[abstract sequoia]

one globe rotation around the world?

[amber finch]

honestly idk how they even got it to 1k😭

[sweet flax]

where the fuck are you living that shipping is $1k fucking mars?

[rugged compass]

Its a Holly Jolly Christmas

[amber finch]

i didnt choose express or whatever it is, it was normal shipping

[abstract sequoia]

venus, need to afford delivery cooling i guess

[sweet flax]

might be interstellar not local

[abstract sequoia]

anyway for an on-topic question

i think im not done topping up, but really how much am i spending for bchip bundles compared to just buying more xtals. might cave in and go for chenxue SS

remaining max pulls are 50

[sweet flax]

could just wait till next patch before spending

[amber finch]

what the fuck ram

[sweet flax]

oh wait ss chenxue

[abstract sequoia]

yea

[sweet flax]

hmm

nah I would hold off on spending, 50 pulls is too huge of a sum

[amber finch]

i mean, do you really need ss chen that much (are you in nirv)

[amber finch]

esp with such a big patch coming

[abstract sequoia]

i want nirvana jailtime, so yes

[sweet flax]

just hold onto next patch

[abstract sequoia]

i need at least 2 +100dos

[sweet flax]

if it reruns get it then

[amber finch]

my current route is save for 8.5 and backpull chen if you reslly really want that

[abstract sequoia]

but then everyone has SSS...

[sweet flax]

welcome to the cruel world

[amber finch]

ss is enough for t50 anyways

just mald to hell like awa

[abstract sequoia]

its teri all over again

[amber finch]

think of yourself as the eu awa

[sweet flax]

ye but teri was t50 with just s no?

[abstract sequoia]

this time I fell for it because im tired of Redlotus

[amber finch]

anyways, hold off from spending anything for now ram

[abstract sequoia]

idfk i just know I'm screwed on any LoA without her

[sweet flax]

[abstract sequoia]

Cay keeps telling me otherwise, but I don't see him proofing me otherwise

[sweet flax]

well my professional opinion as a filthy whale
dont spend that dumb amount of money

[abstract sequoia]

i mean how much..

[sweet flax]

I could've shown you my t100 standings before I pulled teri if I took a screenshot back then

[amber finch]

also uh 20-30 dollars for a 10 pull(?) compared to barely a 10 pull with xtals (assuming 2x) ig??

honestly i didnt look at the values

i just bought out the big bchips packs lmao

[abstract sequoia]

yea but that was when she came out right?

now all i see is SS or SSS

[sweet flax]

if you consider 8.2 the patch she came out, then ye

even in 8.1 it was doable

[amber finch]

this is why you should be sea ram smh

everyone is deadge here (real)

[sweet flax]

sea is the least sweatiest region

[abstract sequoia]

german prices

[amber finch]

lmao get fucked

[sweet flax]

holy fuck that's expensive

[amber finch]

thats fucking insane

[abstract sequoia]

you'll need a jaw holder if you convert that into your currency

[sweet flax]

what the fuck a whole 25 euros more than what I pay LMFAO

[amber finch]

110 euros for the 6.6k?? like holy dhit

[abstract sequoia]

Europoors getting scammed

[odd plume]

chenxue is just the start, you will need to spend more to maintain nirvana

[abstract sequoia]

WHAT WHRE

I might need to migrate

[sweet flax]

habibi come to middle east

I dont wanna go back to europe because prices are higher

[abstract sequoia]

🫠

[sweet flax]

forced to go back soon

[abstract sequoia]

well yes we get more money too, but not THIS much more money

[sweet flax]

😔 no more spending for me

[abstract sequoia]

we also spend more money

on rent, food etc

[amber finch]

wait til you go to a country with an even weaker currency

actually i wanna see, brb

[abstract sequoia]

inflation fucking us on top of that

[sweet flax]

anyways back to the actual topic

[storm lantern]

i have a friend in india and microtransactions are like 30% more than usd

[sweet flax]

too expensive

[amber finch]

HOLY SHIT

[abstract sequoia]

ikr

[storm lantern]

dong lol

[amber finch]

i usually pay uh 2.5m for the same pack

[sweet flax]

idk if that's a lot but damn
that's a lot of dongs

[amber finch]

the difference is almost 1m

38 dollars

[abstract sequoia]

yea you see how bad things are in eu

[odd plume]

use topup service

[abstract sequoia]

topping up in games is always a scam

[amber finch]

33 euros lmao

[sweet flax]

bro getting it for 3 dinar cheaper than me, gg im getting scammed

[amber finch]

the diff is insane

[amber finch]

L

[sweet flax]

could've bought a private jet with that kind of money smh

[amber finch]

THE topup service or the topup service?

[odd plume]

[amber finch]

[storm lantern]

for a whel like u buying a plane ticket would be cheaper than paying those prices

[sweet flax]

calling me a whel when the millionaire ches is putting down 8mil next patch is crazy

[storm lantern]

true

[amber finch]

anyways

for birb i dont hab hofi so its just vita cora cora for me huh

[sweet flax]

this is the cost of a plane ticket back to my home in germany

[storm lantern]

vita cora cora should be better if u have op

[abstract sequoia]

okay going by this, 3300x2 is still worth more than bchips. 1320x2 isn't

[storm lantern]

hm thats quite a bit

[amber finch]

yooo thats the price of my seal

[sweet flax]

"quite a bit"

[amber finch]

your prices just fucks over everything lmao

[storm lantern]

are u saying its not that much

holy whale

[sweet flax]

no im saying its a fucking lot

"quite a bit" is an understatement

[sweet flax]

what b-chip bundles are available

anything with more than 2x value?

[abstract sequoia]

3rd screenshot

or is there more

[sweet flax]

bro making me look myself smh

[sweet flax]

just this then

you'd rather top up crystals compared to the other bundles

[abstract sequoia]

okay got it

[sweet flax]

how much can you spend

without feeling like shit

[abstract sequoia]

100€ max

[sweet flax]

cuz personally i'd get the 5 euro 50 b chip pack to get the 3 cards, and maybe the 55 euro AT MOST

26 pulls gets you halfway to the ss chenxue goal

if you have the daily you can probs make the rest of the 7k before the banner leaves

[abstract sequoia]

I'm also thining about next patch maybe, but I honestly have to do crystal farm calcs for that

[storm lantern]

do euro farming calcs

[abstract sequoia]

lmao

[abstract sequoia]

sounds good

im just scared of next patch like I already said

"huehue must pull cause ani valk"

[storm lantern]

no must pull because ||elysia valk||

[abstract sequoia]

i don't care about her in a waifu sense

even if she's such an amazing character

[glad ice]

ani?

[abstract sequoia]

glblul anniversary

[sweet flax]

oh not because of that, you are in eu

[abstract sequoia]

or was it cn anni

[sweet flax]

this is the land of the elysia simps

cn anni

[abstract sequoia]

right

yet i didnt see many of these perform

which makes sense i guess

[sweet flax]

eu also has a lack of hands

[abstract sequoia]

they just pull flawless and chill

anyway, what if I just pull ||dk horb, risking having her only S0||

or would i just fuck myself over even more

[sweet flax]

better than not pulling next patch

tbh that's my plan

||although my horb is ranked lol||

[abstract sequoia]

makes more sense in your case then

[sweet flax]

anyways food here, I leave, feel free to dm me if you wanna ask me smth otherwise auf wiedersehen

[abstract sequoia]

alright dankeschön for now

[amber finch]

asu

|| no horb stamps or anything next patch right||

fuckkk

[ancient needle]

No

[amber finch]

die

why no stampedes

mine is literally hardstuck s1 what yeh frick

[storm lantern]

how do you get this sidekick

[glad ice]

at the sea

[amber finch]

[glad ice]

if u notice the color of water

there's a road to it

[storm lantern]

oh i see ty

[sweet flax]

https://tenor.com/view/laughing-cat-catlaughing-laughingcat-point-gif-7577620470218150413

[amber finch]

shudup

[glad ice]

i sea

[sweet flax]

[amber finch]

if next topup has horb stamps then you’re fucked

[sweet flax]

im gonna make sure my horb is always 1 rank ahead of yours

[amber finch]

wont work bc i have the power of money on my side

[sweet flax]

oh no

[amber finch]

if horb’s in bp then you know im buying paladin

[sweet flax]

im so scared of ches' money

[amber finch]

[sweet flax]

you mean you dont buy paladin every patch?

holy fuck I might be a whale

[amber finch]

i may have money but i also have brains

[abstract sequoia]

at least you have s1

[amber finch]

what the fuck asu

you actually buy pala every patch??

[sweet flax]

ye

[abstract sequoia]

wtf

[amber finch]

why

[sweet flax]

collection purposes, I want the borders

[abstract sequoia]

oh understandable

[sweet flax]

(also the affix mats are nice)

[amber finch]

oh there we go, YOU’RE MORE WHEL THAN ME

[sweet flax]

nuh uh

[amber finch]

WDYM CHESWHEL, ASU IS A LEVIATHAN

[sweet flax]

NUH UH

[amber finch]

anyways do i buy this patch’s knight or skip

[sweet flax]

the crystallum are permanent, if there's no reason for you to get it right now dont bother

[amber finch]

yeah no reasons, i just want the 2k xtals lmfao

[storm lantern]

unreal whaling

[abstract sequoia]

literally the most useless p-

[sweet flax]

says you

[amber cedar]

it doesnt reset each patch?

[glad ice]

limited shop reset right?

[storm lantern]

im basically f2p

[sweet flax]

not since 8.1 no

[amber finch]

hasnt reset since uh for awhile joe

the balls stay permanent

[sweet flax]

"basically f2p" aka whel

[amber cedar]

icic

[amber finch]

everyone here is a whel

i dont even spend money in this game

[abstract sequoia]

crystallum will never reset again

[amber finch]

not a single cent

[amber finch]

inb4 p3 with new shitty bp

[storm lantern]

and my family is proud of me

[abstract sequoia]

and mental issues are imaginary

[amber finch]

exactly bc im the 3rd person in my lineage to become a teacher

[amber finch]

what the fork

[sweet flax]

tbh I have a lot of reasons
I want:
the borders
the extra mats
the extra crystallum because I lack dkeys
I benefited from getting bonus shards, in the case I ever unlock fov or lv I will have them at s2 should the need for that ever arise (from older top up boxes)
etc...

[amber finch]

guys, money in bank != real money

its just 2d numbers!!

[amber finch]

i also have alot of reasons

[sweet flax]

ye

[amber finch]

uhh idk

[sweet flax]

you are a whel, you whel hard, you whel

there 3 reasons

[amber finch]

AHH

[storm lantern]

i never thought about it like that

[amber finch]

oh also can you gib me the img of this patch’s border

[amber finch]

exactly, its all numbers!!

[sweet flax]

let me open the game then

[amber finch]

with real money you have to count and hesitate when you spend

with money in ur bank acc, its literally just 4 numbers away from you spending evrrythint without any warnings (for purchases under 5k usd in my case)

[storm lantern]

i cant buy the dkeys bc im missing abyss and fhp

[amber finch]

its so real!!!

[amber finch]

best money saving hack confirmed

[amber finch]

ew thats disgusting

[sweet flax]

here ches

[amber finch]

this is why i dont use borders

(i didnt have money to buy the good ones)

[sweet flax]

xd

paws fws and lp ones are nice

[amber finch]

gonna wait for next patch’s border and decide if i buy pala or not ig

also thx for img

wuv u

[abstract sequoia]

all totally understandable

not sure if fov will ever have a use tho

[amber finch]

oh btw all the bchips packs that screams VALUE VALUE at my face, are they actually value

[sweet flax]

not like lv will either

but if I had lv, id still be in nirv

[amber finch]

shuddup lv dkey soon

[storm lantern]

just do the math

[sweet flax]

so who knows

[abstract sequoia]

btw, my crystal calcs

[amber finch]

you’ll all be crying while im laughing my ass off with my ss lv

[sweet flax]

ye looks like ||horb dkey and ss chenxue|| angle

[amber finch]

oh actually i should do that brb

[abstract sequoia]

i wont hit it for chen without paying or luck and I'm fucked next patch

[sweet flax]

we are fucked dw

[amber finch]

whats the starting date of 8.5

[amber finch]

just be rich???

[sweet flax]

btw did you include the 1 time crystal sources from 8.5 anni

[abstract sequoia]

23rd october

[amber finch]

[sweet flax]

[abstract sequoia]

[amber finch]

ohhh yeah nvm im fucked

[abstract sequoia]

no extra sources

[amber finch]

definitely spending atleast 100

[sweet flax]

whel

[storm lantern]

if i have to skip ||horb dkey|| idc

[sweet flax]

😔 I need them to reset the top up bonuses man

have to wait till cny

[amber finch]

huh

something’s wrong

[sweet flax]

wtf

how much are you wheling

[amber finch]

wait a second the dates are right

[amber finch]

monthly + pala for next patch

WHY AM I GETTING 24K FROM ABYSS

[quick birch]

why are we calculating from the 10.5

time travelling smh

[amber finch]

oh wait

[glad ice]

monthly expire?

[amber finch]

idk it just auto put me there so i just ignored it

[amber finch]

my monthlies wont expire dont worry

[glad ice]

13 in calculator

[storm lantern]

especially since ur a3

[amber finch]

there we go

[amber finch]

bc im at my 13th day

[amber finch]

what tje fork

cmon im bad but not that bad

23k, lets round that to 24

[prisma oyster]

which ones are more worth to buy? crystal or torus

[amber finch]

yeah im spending 100+ arent i

[amber finch]

there are no crystals there, just buy the pink balls + the dorm cards

[storm lantern]

you can get both so buy whichever you need faster

[sweet flax]

what are the odds I get my first non-hard pity pull in 8.5 ||from the free 10x||

[storm lantern]

0%

[prisma oyster]

yes the balls are called cystallums im just too lazy to type it all out

[amber finch]

then you’ll become me and go on a first 10 pull spree for 4 patches straight

[sweet flax]

ches give me that luck ive been going 90 pulls for.... when did thelema release?

[glad ice]

ur ball is always first priority

[amber finch]

just say balls and we’ll understand, no one is bothered to actually call its by its government name

[amber finch]

7.4 or smt

[abstract sequoia]

okay so +7420 if i did the math correctly

[sweet flax]

erm akshually 🤓 they are called crystallums

[amber finch]

mine started from thel to vita

[amber finch]

shuddup nerd

[storm lantern]

its bc hoyo knows they're getting your money regardless

[amber finch]

and then i got unlucky

[abstract sequoia]

wait wtf +10 valk and gear too??

okay 10220

[amber finch]

then i got back on my feet and now im 20 pulls for a valk ches

[sweet flax]

oh wait fuck ||what would I even get from carnival I have all the valks, vita and ps are also ranked bruh||

[amber finch]

ehh ss vita is good for the intensity right?

[glad ice]

s2?

[sweet flax]

ig ye

[amber finch]

s2 badum is nothing notable iirc?

[sweet flax]

ss vita or s2 fws though?
not taking ps to ss1

[storm lantern]

asu how did i not know u were a leviathan

[sweet flax]

wdym

[storm lantern]

ss ps s2 vita

[sweet flax]

I dont have paws clearly im not leviathan

[storm lantern]

nice try

[sweet flax]

see no paws, clearly not whel

[abstract sequoia]

on demand evasion skill trigger on WA and 4th BA

[amber finch]

hmghe

ig thats good for the tf for ma?

[abstract sequoia]

ma stuff

[amber finch]

other than thats its meh

[abstract sequoia]

yes amazingly good

[storm lantern]

own lamp and qua = whel

[amber finch]

s2 for more atk ig?

[abstract sequoia]

because badum isnt such a slow fatass like vita

[amber finch]

vita doesnt see any uses nowadays compared to badum

[abstract sequoia]

what the vita

[sweet flax]

hey lantern is hot so I pulled I still need her weapon

[amber finch]

and badum is an anni valk too so she basically wins

there’s your answer asu

[sweet flax]

ss vita it is

[amber finch]

L

[sweet flax]

because im a filthy simp

[amber finch]

what the fork

[amber finch]

understandable

do i pull for badum hmghe

[abstract sequoia]

ah shit ||elf boxes are back||

[amber finch]

is badum without weap a decentish support

[abstract sequoia]

uh sure

[sweet flax]

id argue fuck no but I cant remember what her weapon did

[amber finch]

eh i’ll just bank on my 20 pulls for badum luck

[storm lantern]

20 tdm or something

[abstract sequoia]

that stellar shift time stop

[sweet flax]

ye but that's when leader

he is asking about support

[abstract sequoia]

not only on leader

[amber finch]

actually if i go out of my way to pull for badum

[sweet flax]

After she casts Stellar Shift as the leader, she triggers Time-frozen Domain for 1.5s

[amber finch]

then it’ll cost me wayyy more than 100-200

i dont wanna step into the 300 territory

[abstract sequoia]

time frozen domain applies even when she's in the support slot though does it?

[ancient needle]

?

[amber finch]

ig just 8.5 valk + that thing for me

[ancient needle]

No?

[sweet flax]

I know reading is hard as a gacha player, but come on ram

[amber finch]

dont go too hard on him, he’s blinded by money

[abstract sequoia]

okay i was wrong sry

[sweet flax]

that total damage vulnerability is pretty juicy though

[amber finch]

oh also just spent 50 bucks on crocs so the budget went down to 150 max

[abstract sequoia]

bro

[ancient needle]

You can apologize by funding my SS CX pulls

[sweet flax]

no, fund MY ss cx pulls

[storm lantern]

no fund my sss cx pulls

[amber finch]

fund my sss cora pull

[sweet flax]

I require a small loan

pls halp uwu

[ancient needle]

You're so dead in 8.5

[storm lantern]

[sweet flax]

not wearing my glasses cant distinguish shapes

[amber finch]

i mean my eyes got worse too

and it has been like 2 years since i got that glass

im truly a master at procrastinating

[sweet flax]

ggs glasses dead at 2 years

bro is gonna need a millionaire's bank account to save him

[amber finch]

hey im supposed to get new ones every 6 months

[sweet flax]

HUH????

[amber finch]

idk thats what my doctors said

[abstract sequoia]

your eyes are cooked

[sweet flax]

bro is being scammed real time, or his eyes are disintegrating

[ancient needle]

That's quite normal if you're still growing

[amber finch]

they’re not, they’re actually good considering that i’ve been like this for like 6 years

[ancient needle]

Though it was ~1 year for me

[sweet flax]

ive switched my glasses once in the past decade holy fk 😭

[amber finch]

so this is what im currently at

3 meatster

and i started off when i was 12 at 0.25

so 6 years of me glueing my eyes to my phone

thats not bad compared to my friends

[thick bolt]

beginner help will never beat the blind allegations

[amber finch]

[amber finch]

shudup

[ancient needle]

I'm defo not helping with my -9.5

[sweet flax]

atp apply for legal blindship

[thick bolt]

damn, I'm only -6.5

[amber finch]

it got worse at my school’s health checkup tho

[abstract sequoia]

my eyes are healthy, i think

[amber finch]

on a scale of 10

my left is 5/10 my right is 9/10

the balance is real

oh also i somehow became shorter by 1cm

oh btw how time gated is the current event

[sweet flax]

pretty time gated

[thick bolt]

very

[amber finch]

can i just ignore it for the entire patch- nvm

[sweet flax]

will take you more than a week if you want the skin

[amber finch]

fuckk i want that skin too

[sweet flax]

its pretty linear

[amber finch]

dc abt the xtals, they’re like 5 bucks fr

[sweet flax]

similar to the kitchen event in 8.2 the more you progress the easier it becomes

[thick bolt]

it's like flashbacks to the ranch events, where you're constantly gated

[amber finch]

can i pay a staff here to get into my account and just code the skin into it

[sweet flax]

moots....

[ancient needle]

Moooots

[thick bolt]

send your petition in #🎮honkai-chat

[amber finch]

sent

[sweet flax]

so has beginner help went through anything beginner related today

[amber finch]

yes

[abstract sequoia]

so that's why the music is similar

[amber finch]

there was the akemi guy and the satoshi guy

we hit our quota of 2 newbies a day

that’s not bad

[sweet flax]

zamn

didnt we use to hit 5 newbies on average per day

[abstract sequoia]

im beginner in whaling so

[sweet flax]

gg game is dying

[amber finch]

used to be 20 lmao

[abstract sequoia]

do i count?

[amber finch]

and that was when the game was considered “dead”

[sweet flax]

ye but there was also a shit ton of beginner help drama

those were fun days lmfao

[sweet flax]

do you want to count

[amber finch]

oh there were? i just remember the insane amount of iconic memes being born lmao

[ancient needle]

No, he wants to whale

[amber finch]

smh

[ancient needle]

Whaling is precisely to avoid counting crystals

[amber finch]

honestly idk how to whale efficiently and im too lazy to look at the faq

[ancient needle]

Aqua?

[amber finch]

i just buy whatever with the value stamp lmao

[ancient needle]

That's the main mf I remember

[amber finch]

OH YEAHHH THAT LIL SHIT

[sweet flax]

"He who shall not be named" actually

[abstract sequoia]

then i take that statement back,call it coping for affording aop

[amber finch]

i remember my cadets memeing and diana the cow lmao

[sweet flax]

diana the cow 💀

[thick bolt]

Unless you're pretty close to pity betting on a rerun next patch may be a better idea

main reason being the cost, then the other stuff

[amber finch]

ram move to sea and i’ll sponsor

pinky promise

[sweet flax]

sponsor you with 10k viet dongs

dont fall for it

[amber finch]

thats a whole 43 cents

thats alot smh

[prisma oyster]

are the tasks in dorm errands random or is there any way we can higher the chance of getting a task that gives u crystal

[ancient needle]

Dorm Errands lah

[thick bolt]

Increasing errand task level

[sweet flax]

oh wait

cough

[ancient needle]

Afaik increasing your general Dorm lvl increases the chances of crystal tasks

But other than that no

[amber finch]

this is why i instantly dip whenever there’s a question idk

living by faq ches’s principles

if you dont know it, then just ignore them

[thick bolt]

and at certain breakpoints the crystal tasks start needing S2 valks and then SS (only base S ranks count)

[prisma oyster]

damn too bad

[amber finch]

thx for solidifying

[sweet flax]

I looked for keywords not the actual question lmfao

[amber finch]

you’re literally 2024 ches oh my ga

this is why everybody thinks you’re the next prof

[abstract sequoia]

50 pulls away, I'm just honesty fed up putting so much effort into current patch and getting no reward

[sweet flax]

unlike 2024 ches I dont have a faq named after me for constantly giving missinfo

[amber finch]

[sweet flax]

https://tenor.com/view/star-wars-yoda-patience-sw3-gif-21070142

[amber finch]

dudu’s patch was a literal blur for me

[thick bolt]

my own suggestion would be to just cut costs, going till pity again would not be nice on the mental imo
also leaves time for dealing with the bad stuff

[abstract sequoia]

I've been patient before that

[amber finch]

i dont even know how i got her and even her weap

and idk how i even retained rl during her patch

i was experiencing massive burnouts in dudu’s patch lmao

[sweet flax]

dudu patch was so dead

Idk how I demoted to agony 3 during it

[abstract sequoia]

then nirvana bouncing happened and i just get tired of RL being full of lazy people and Nirvana gating me over the stupidest things

[amber finch]

the real miracle is my monthly wasnt wasted

[abstract sequoia]

none of these involve my own skill

[amber finch]

i literally remember skipping 3 days

but i still got the full 3.3k lmao

[ancient needle]

Wtf

[storm lantern]

we need a5

[sweet flax]

welcome to my life lmfao

[ancient needle]

Welcome to HI3

[abstract sequoia]

but aren't you nirb anyway?

[sweet flax]

I demoted today

[ancient needle]

Same

[abstract sequoia]

oh

[sweet flax]

because I didnt have paws

21081 score LOL

[ancient needle]

Because I didn't have CX or maybe Kia

[abstract sequoia]

[storm lantern]

im highkey glad i was not in nirv for that horrid boss

[abstract sequoia]

I'm not sure if I would've lived

[sweet flax]

be glad you didnt have to try dumbshit like ps fdd gd

[thick bolt]

Also since this is going on better shift to #🎮honkai-chat

[ancient needle]

Outside of transition it's kinda fun

[amber finch]

got too lazy malding jk and just decided to one run and sleep fr

[upbeat egret]

Ram ram too tired of ago4

[opal ingot]

Pt3 will fix it

[abstract sequoia]

you say it like you've been at this point before

[upbeat egret]

Of course...I was feeling the same way back then when I was new... RL was too boring.. I was playing meme team and still +100

Now its even worse

[shadow gyro]

time to make rl2

[upbeat egret]

Nobody is playing in RL

[abstract sequoia]

so rl always was this way

[upbeat egret]

In my era it was a bit better

[abstract sequoia]

how so

i mean i remember only really sweating when I lacked stats

[upbeat egret]

Peeps were still malding.. more like top 1-7

Now only the top 1 is malding

Sometime bracket is dead and nobody mald

[abstract sequoia]

so far there was only 1 rl bracket that denied me trophies while I still had a good team

which was tank i believe

rest is just... a pubstomp

[upbeat egret]

This the reason Rl = ago4

[abstract sequoia]

maybe they should make an extra tier

[upbeat egret]

Yeah something like rl myriad will motivate peeps i think

[abstract sequoia]

that too

[upbeat egret]

Or maybe something like top 5 +100 and below top6-20 -200

[abstract sequoia]

Green Lettuce

[old tendon]

was the same for me

[abstract sequoia]

comes after Redlotus and before Nirvana

[upbeat egret]

Peeps will have motivation to mald

[abstract sequoia]

wasnt that the old nirb system

[upbeat egret]

Yeah

It was really good imo

[abstract sequoia]

then why change

[upbeat egret]

Idk

[old tendon]

yeah and you really couldnt stay in nirv if you didnt whale

[abstract sequoia]

i see

i mean now that i think about it, i always would have gotten minus trophies

[upbeat egret]

Nah full S0 were still able to stay

U needed good hands

Malded ur life

[old tendon]

im too old to mald all my days away for +2 points

[abstract sequoia]

and now ppl have j*bs

so i guess more swiping

[upbeat egret]

I am just telling u how it was....u don't need to mald

[old tendon]

im well aware how it was

[abstract sequoia]

it should never be a one and done for the highest ranked tier

[upbeat egret]

Nah peeps are not whaling nowadays

[abstract sequoia]

that's just screwed up balanced

[upbeat egret]

We barely have 9s peeps in top 5

[abstract sequoia]

good

lets keep it that way

[upbeat egret]

Back then top 1-7 were all 9S

[old tendon]

unfortunately those are the ones keeping the game most alive

[abstract sequoia]

but most ppl spend into aops now

hidden ranks basically

can't compare them to elfs because they're way more than what elfs were

[upbeat egret]

[upbeat egret]

Its the same actually

U need 3 copies of elf for 4*

Same as aop

[abstract sequoia]

and you needed them in nirb?

[old tendon]

CD reduction was a must

[upbeat egret]

Ofc

[abstract sequoia]

i mean for the last gen elfs, they only rly go online at 3*

but i guess the switch cd refund was the actual stonks

[upbeat egret]

Nah 3* was same as SS aop

Dudu 4* and kiana 4* were game changer

Really op

[abstract sequoia]

and 2* are just not enough?

[upbeat egret]

2* was trash

[abstract sequoia]

figured

[upbeat egret]

Very very bad

[abstract sequoia]

so even less useful than S rank Songque

[upbeat egret]

Yes

[abstract sequoia]

im really just trying to understand how things were back then, i mean with the worse banners you also had to spend more..

so that's why S0 was normalized

4/4 was already a flex

[upbeat egret]

Definitely

30k was not enough for s0 +4

Sometime u need to spend 45k for s0

[old tendon]

i think there was this number? 46800?

it was like the average for full s0 4/4?

[abstract sequoia]

i think i spent less on coralie and chenxue..

wait whats full hard pity now?

[old tendon]

150

90+60

[abstract sequoia]

42k yea, and with aop it's 56k..

yea nevermind i wasted more

[old tendon]

i spent 69440

[abstract sequoia]

well i only got chen S

yea anyway, im really just gonna think about this for a while how and if I want to do the leap

abyss in just lotus isn't fun anymore

i don't have enough cope I could try for fun

[normal aspen]

should i pri arm my weapons? is it worth it?

[abstract sequoia]

yes of course

[outer spruce]

yes, it's a better version of the weapon you have

no downside

[normal aspen]

ty

[abstract sequoia]

you gain an extra passive for each pri-arm compared to the normal wep, as well as higher buff ratios

some older ones also change their functionality slightly

[upbeat egret]

Well if u really want to join us ..u will need to invest a bit more if u are not lucky tbh

S aop are just not enough

[abstract sequoia]

i know

[upbeat egret]

Ofc u can be lucky with ur bracket but how much do u want to pray for luck bracket?

[abstract sequoia]

does that mean teri is also worth a thought or should I just ignore her

im screwed in any LoA without her

[abstract sequoia]

my luck only comes when i don't need it

and in the most stupid way

Murphy's Chaos

[old tendon]

very hard to t10 without at least S teri me thinks

you skipped any p2 valks?

[abstract sequoia]

simp and rs

[old tendon]

rs

[abstract sequoia]

and sena was an impossible pull

[old tendon]

well she's relevant less and less it seems

did she had any abyss last patch?

[abstract sequoia]

oh yea and maid dress girl

[abstract sequoia]

i think so

guaymas lightning i think

or world star actually

WS would screw Badum havers more

[old tendon]

i meant rs

[abstract sequoia]

oh

[abstract sequoia]

nothing

not even MA

[upbeat egret]

Well aop are really worth at ss tbh.. teri is is good at S because of the double super qte.. u can not really afford her now and in the future... no crystal

[abstract sequoia]

unless you count flower MA

[upbeat egret]

Rs is not really relevant

[abstract sequoia]

rs is a nice thought but shieldbreak isn't common enough

and img bosses are usually trio'd

yea im not planning to backpull any valks

its really just aops that I need

[abstract sequoia]

that might change next patch depending on my funds

hopefully not

[upbeat egret]

Ram wants to join the big boys

[abstract sequoia]

actually looks that way

[upbeat egret]

U need more challenge

Ago4 too boring

[abstract sequoia]

actual +100 in nirvana next

you'll see

[upbeat egret]

[old tendon]

[upbeat egret]

Ramlao

[normal aspen]

Just got azure empyrea from dorm, should i use her? my only other s rank is fate defying dragon and he free one you get on day 2

also who should i get from the valkerie option s egg?

[thick bolt]

Not worth using her, she takes too much field time that solo FDD will be better in every way

[abstract sequoia]

ae is an old elemental support, you can use her for that role as an option. Just keep in mind that you ideally want 3 Astral Ring valkyries for fdd

[thick bolt]

as for egg

!faq egg

[small willow]

S-Rank Valkyrie Option

Hello, Captain!

[Click here](#👶beginner-help message) to see the in-depth explanation of what to choose!

Ai-chan recommends that you keep this egg until you have two from the following: Shadow Knight, Sixth Serenade and Goushinnso Memento. When you own two, unlock the one you are still missing.

[abstract sequoia]

I'd rather use her for MA in a second team where fdd is already used elsewhere

so you can buff either VBm or VBs depending on who you're fighting

[thick bolt]

RC is better

AE needs field time and most of the buffs are on ult

big sp issues

[abstract sequoia]

ae has a better gather though

[thick bolt]

when was the last time you needed gather in MA

[abstract sequoia]

other than that, i just found her fun really. you're right with cat being the generally best option

i needed it for q-manifold and superstring sidestages

[dry python]

AE in abyss aw hell nah

[abstract sequoia]

that way i could kill all meatshields at once instead of running out of time for killing them one by one

i think it's a fair argument to think of good gather options

I'm also talking about A3/RL sidestages btw

not just the very early stuff

[quick birch]

in abyss you'd just brute force with fdd + vbs + vbm or if we consider future valks, new valk + fdd + vbm

all def better than ae

also iirc fdd ba4 kind of gathers but lemme check that rq

[abstract sequoia]

and if you're type countered and just want to beat side stages to get to the boss?

[quick birch]

you'd still rock fdd

she's better than everything else a beginner has

[abstract sequoia]

yea, but assuming fdd has no gather, you will keep missing stuff

[quick birch]

giving up that fdd leader passive still isnt worth it by a long shot

it's like 30% fire and total dmg taken

[abstract sequoia]

since when are ring passives on RoO good

[thick bolt]

vita

[quick birch]

since they made fdd and paws compatible

that's the only reasony why her team is vbm + vbs

[abstract sequoia]

that's more their passive synergy

wait, that counts for vbs too??

[quick birch]

vbs literally does nothing and is inactive the whole run

[abstract sequoia]

but the passive skill only counts with paws right

[quick birch]

nah

that's just a branch in her leader skill

[thick bolt]

AE buffs also last 15 seconds which is a mismatch with the usual p2 valk 25 second duration. Meaning more frequent switch ins

[quick birch]

that's the paws exclusive skill

[abstract sequoia]

mb i meant the leader skill

i got it mixed up because its a passive on paws

im aware 3/3 roo works with any p2 valk

i just didn't think the buff was this strong

[quick birch]

🤓 technically that isnt the buff related to the 3/3 leader skill

but this is nitpicking

her actual 3/3 leader skill gives like 4% total damage taken

[abstract sequoia]

i meant specifically this effect, not her RoO skill that cheats it

[quick birch]

lmao fdd has the excact same buffs

[abstract sequoia]

those numbers are low on every roo valk, except fdd

[quick birch]

nah they are low on every RoO valk

fdd just has another passive in her leader skill branch

[abstract sequoia]

oh, so you meant the 30% tdm and fire taken are from leader

[quick birch]

which then requires all teammembers to be protected by an astral ring

[abstract sequoia]

ohh

okay i get why they've done that but its a huge fuck you

so any 3rd slot cook is impossible

like it was done with LV and Vita

[quick birch]

idt they really thought about that it was more to not lose like 30% dmg when you dont have 3/3 RoO and also to include paws

on the other side hoyo doesnt like cooking with cope stuff in abyss anyway

made fdd + ala suck ass

[abstract sequoia]

because stigmas have bleed dmg up already?

[quick birch]

because her breach is low without her sig stigs

[quick birch]

that's RoO exclusive

[abstract sequoia]

sounds a bit future proof at least

[quick birch]

specifically reffering to this

dragon's prowess being her 3pc buff

[abstract sequoia]

of course it is

[normal aspen]

are any characters in the war treasury gotten with only ancient willpower good

[outer spruce]

in abyss? no

[normal aspen]

in general

[outer spruce]

you can use some of them in er but that's all they're good for

[abstract sequoia]

Very niche use cases in Memorial Arena for some, especially when you lack any recent valk that would fill the sameish role.
DPS investment is usually not worth it, some valks like Lightning Empress (LE) and Herrscher of Flamescion (HoFs) however have good Leader skills or skills that apply Time Fracture (TF) that can make it worth getting them for those cases.

you'll always slap support stuff on them though to buff your more recent and stronger valkyries

Their main purpose is more being a Crystal farm through Elysian Realm and gaining Dorm XP for permanent stat boosts you gain from it

[normal aspen]

wha about the starter supply characters (songque and senadina)? are they any good?

[storm lantern]

no

aside from being not good they also need support tags that a new player is going to have trouble getting

songque is better since she supports a more recent ring so do the 1 pull that gets refunded on her banner

[normal aspen]

so should i gett songwue then or is she not worth it?

[storm lantern]

she's not worth it you just have to do 1 pull that gets refunded to advance starter manual

[remote frost]

What team does she need😢?Also does she need her pri arm or chenxue

[steep drift]

If I have all the chests unlocked here, does that mean I've done everything I can with inkspot?

[steep drift]

pri arm first at least.

[outer spruce]

yeah that's it

[quick birch]

gacha astral ops aren't needed unless you want to retain nirvana

for now you can play her with vbm and vbs

[sweet flax]

you are in no position to be pulling astral ops, especially with an account more barren than a desert

[outer spruce]

you don't need chenxue at all, if you don't have her weapon, get it then pri arm it

[steep drift]

I remember seeing a conersation between Vita and the cat online somewhere. Is that some secret I have to unlock or will that happen naturally or did I not see it correctly?

[outer spruce]

that's not in this event

that was in the luna farm event

[steep drift]

oh, ok mb

ty

[ancient needle]

In general her only support options are PAWS > Vita > HoFi > VBm
It looks like you don't have any P2 valks though, use the team in the pins in that case

Ah, didn't see the last part alr being mentioned

[prisma oyster]

what's the most core can u get on a single er run

[wintry juniper]

if running Pardofelis, you can actually get all cores

but for the most part, 6 cores if you're lucky

[rugged compass]

Howcome?

[wintry juniper]

wdym howcome

it's called GAMBLING

[sweet flax]

[outer spruce]

pardo money run

[rugged compass]

Sorry im just confused

[outer spruce]

you can gamble with the pardo slot machine and pardo gets a permanent discount in the shop

[unkempt hamlet]

[rugged compass]

Oh ok

[wintry juniper]

her flamechaser item allows her to roll the slot machine, and there's a roll where you can get 999 silvers

add on the fact that she literally makes every signet in the shop discounted as mentioned

so if you get her own signet early on, you can probably buy out all signets in ER

[wintry juniper]

why are you here

[jaunty beacon]

hi!
does anyone know how big this game is on mobile, I'm planning to download Hi3 and play it but im not sure how much storage it will take up

[wintry juniper]

unsure the actual size, but I recall seeing an infographic that says to save about 25GB for the game

[jaunty beacon]

ok ty

[sweet flax]

there should be an faq size, although im not sure if its updated, #🔌technical-help probs has the exact answer

[rugged compass]

Ohok

[unkempt hamlet]

[warped geyser]

mine is 38 gb om my phone, but i also have i think 7 gb of extra stuff not downloaded

[supple creek]

How long do you have to be away to trigger returner awards?

[amber finch]

for first time returnees its 15 days +
for second time returnees (or higher) its 45(?) days plus
for the returnee gacha, you need to be a 2nd time (or higher) returnee
disclaimer: returnee event is absolutely dogshit no questions asked

[wintry juniper]

returnee banner is fun tho

[supple creek]

I managed to unlock my second returnee event. Didn't mean too, I thought I was only a week or two behind.....

Had to get caught up with HSR's story. Was at the beginning of 3.0, turns out there is a LOT to that chapter

no banner though

[dry python]

Prof doesn't know faq gamesize

[slim blaze]

Washed up

[ancient needle]

It was bumped up to 60 in 8.2

The second part

[wintry juniper]

[warped geyser]

please tell me the last chest is i one of the missions

[wintry juniper]

can always search YT for the chest locations

[wispy aurora]

Do I use my egg or Buy in WT

If I use the Egg I can get VE saving me 1120 AW

[thick bolt]

upto you tbh, using egg saves you farming for that valk to get ranks earlier. On the other hand if you have collecting tendencies you may wanna just keep it in inv for pretty value

it's a personal decision at this point

[warped geyser]

i searched every inch like 10 times so i think it's behind a mission wall

😭

[whole bloom]

Is senadina worth to pull? Starter supply

[quick birch]

No, she's an extremely niche DPS and newer players also can't utilize her support role properly due to the lack of WoD units

[amber finch]

dead game confirmed

[amber finch]

yeah she’s worth it, to be a decoration

[sweet flax]

toxic ches

[lilac reef]

it's ok we'll get another Sena ||eventually ||

[misty blade]

is there anyway to reset progress in your account rather than having to create a new hoyoverse one? cuz i'd rather have hsr and hi3rd on the same mail but i already tried hi3rd 3 years ago for only 7 days :c

[sweet flax]

you can just salt your email

that way its still linked to the same email, just different log in info

[misty blade]

is that the only way? isn't there a email swap possibility or something similar?

[sweet flax]

not that im aware of, there's no way to reset your progress

[misty blade]

bummer

thanks tho

[amber finch]

you can swap your email if you are a significant shareholder in hoyo

inb4 he’s actually is one

[sweet flax]

thanks ches for your valuable input

[amber finch]

np

there’s a reason i was considered for prof smh

[slim blaze]

Yeah considered crazy
