[hot rampart]

im skipping eyja banner

[hot rampart]

Ray
6* Sniper [Hunter]
Trait

Attacks require ammo and increase ATK
When not attacking, gradually reload ammo (up to a limit)
Talent 1
Can summon a Sand Beast within Attack Range for a certain duration. The Sand Beast scouts the area and extends Ray's Attack Range. Ray will prioritize targets within the scouting area and deal increased Physical damage to them
Skill 1
Immediately fires an additional special bullet at the target, dealing a certain amount of Physical damage to them and pushing them away with certain force. If the target is defeated, reload additional ammo during the next reload
Can hold charges
Skill 2
Passive: When Sand Beast retreats, it recovers the spent ammo in the scouting area
Active: Expand Attack Range, increase ATK, reduce Sand Beast's redeployment time
Infinite duration
Skill 3
Immediately stop attacking until all ammo is reloaded. Greatly reduce ammo reload interval and expand Attack Range. Attacks deal a certain amount of Physical damage and Bind the target for several seconds
If enemies are defeated within skill duration, gain SP after the skill ends

[versed compass]

the push looked like ass

[tired sky]

i never skip limiteds because getting them after their initial banner is far more miserable

[hot rampart]

i skipped nian , chong , sexas and my life is still the same

[wanton stratus]

Who’s standing up top?

[wanton stratus]

“Gain SP after the skill ends” is crazy tho

[versed compass]

jessica the many guns user

[versed compass]

i mean it still depend on numbers

you probably getting that sp per skill so i guess we just count the time between that sp and next cast for down time

[wanton stratus]

Right, I was wondering who shoots a big Biden blast

Jesscatter S3, huh

[versed compass]

i heard jessica is good in IS

tank that do damage good

[wanton stratus]

Keeping in mind that it might be an inaccurate translation, the phrasing “if enemies are defeated” makes it sound like it’s not only enemies she defeats

Which could be very strong

[versed compass]

lets be real it probably were defeated by her

also it dont say per enemy

so probably fixed sp if she kill 1

if it was per kill it might be broken

[wanton stratus]

Ah, I didn’t think about that

Rip

[versed compass]

the wording seem to go that way
but who knows maybe they meant the other way

which would be more intresting for sure

[wanton stratus]

I hope she’s decent at least

[tired sky]

shes considered to be among the best defenders in CN right now

same as usual tho, mudrock, penance, saria, horn

[versed compass]

defenders in general are behind in IS tho so thats that

[tired sky]

jessica is valued on the same tier as those by CN, but the bigger surprise is they value Nian that high too

[versed compass]

its probably something related to IS4 but am not spoiling my self over it for now

so gonna have to wait and see

tho i do think horn in general is much higher then others cause of being unique

[tired sky]

at least defenders arent casters

in the tier list ive seen of CN theres only one caster in what they call "tier 1"

and its goldenglow

[versed compass]

eyja matchs but gg is more comfy

[tired sky]

FeelsCasterMan

[versed compass]

pass is relic dependent but is busted when he get it

IS3 tho is so unfair for casters

[tired sky]

oh the tier is probably general playstyle i guess, not necessarily IS4

[versed compass]

ah am mostly looking at it in IS

i actually think saria is garbo in IS

unless you doing some s3 gimmicky play

[tired sky]

the funny thing about the tier list ive seen was Ling, Magallan and dorothy were all under a specific tier called "Performance varies with Brain"

[versed compass]

ling is brain dead tho

[tired sky]

depends on the map layout

theres some maps where you need to be pretty good at her skill activations

[versed compass]

hardest unit i ever saw was noir

that fucker have some pepega timing on all his skills

[tired sky]

but yeah basically

t0 units according to CN right now are

[versed compass]

mlynar chalter surtr?

[tired sky]

Mlynar, Bagpipe, Ines, Saileach, texas alter, kirin yato, Suzuran, Ling, chen alter and surtr

[versed compass]

bagpipe overrated af still huh

[tired sky]

bagpipe is mostly because she lets you start printing dp instantly

[versed compass]

which is why i think she is overrated

[tired sky]

and is a cheap early drop that can hold early enemies and refund all cost when you can

[versed compass]

if they gonna put her high cause of CC relevance why is not coube high when she be getting tons of love in CC too now

[tired sky]

i think the biggest insanity of that tier list was that mountain was tier 2 alongside vivianna

[versed compass]

(lane holder) is overrated nowa days

theres units that do that and more

like executer/penance/mudrock

[tired sky]

sure but how many are as effective as mountain for that little cost

[versed compass]

that little cost is really never that relevant unless you going high CC where mountain fall off anyway

its pretty nice to have i admit but its not like having burst dps that auto win you the fight

i think executer is taking his spot nowa days

dp not high
can kill waves easily and self sustain
have big burst too

[violet vortex]

A limited I’m not gonna use isn’t gonna be something I aim to get later anyways

[tired sky]

i'm 100% using her tho so

shes a better mulberry/honeyberry, can't go wrong with that

i think the only limited i havent used at all past their banner was Dusk, but i still love her aesthetic

[versed compass]

i skipped almost all CNY limiteds

only picked up ling

kinda regret tho

chungus was a cool one to pick

i have all anniversary limited
and only missing chalter from summer ones

[tired sky]

i'm still only missing Mizuki out of the 6 stars

could have picked him with last selector but i really dont care about shota cthullu

[versed compass]

i actually aimed at p6 pluma in chalter

got her quick

decided to go one pity in hope for mizuki and dipped

[tired sky]

pluma who, i only know executor

[versed compass]

4 hope pick

[tired sky]

just go vanguard/guard team and executor is 4 hope pick too

[versed compass]

thats still 5

smh my head

[tired sky]

unless you meant with surging waves 4+

in which case, should have said it

i'd probably still pick executor over her

[versed compass]

i mean i said 4 hope

5* are base 3 hope

[violet vortex]

I’d probably use her if I got her but no aim to

[tired sky]

hmm ok i guess you win this one

|| i'd still pick executor over her, that module is so stupid good ||

https://vxtwitter.com/PCaccount13/status/1744665517946995081 from the AK 4th anni PV, people taking note that it seems GG has some volume

[versed compass]

this is adoarble

[versed compass]

look like 30 sp 16 duration and get 10 sp if killing withen skill for ray s3

so 20 sp 16 duration ♿

[versed compass]

also i just realized mizuki is the only one chilling by him self
should ahve added highmore there smh

[tired sky]

considering IS are "what if" scenarios then we probably never actually met highmore

[versed compass]

i think ending 1 is cannon

while other endings are the what if skalter universe

besides those clips were referencing the events we had in recent times

mizuki with the camp being IS3

[wanton stratus]

What a pointless mechanic

[versed compass]

its kinda like kal s3

using it on something that take 7 years to die have a down side

but usually you wont see that down side

tho i did use kal skill to trigger module stun so thats that

[willow nymph]

I've tried out every defender in IS

and surprisingly Nian felt the best to use for tanking

mud and penance kinda just folds with no hp relic

also very crappy e1 in the case of penance

with overwhelming cost

hoshi is like nian but crappier stats and no shields

dodge is not good to count on

silencing is fairly ok utility even if not stellar

Horn is the only defender i'd consider for damage and the best for IS imo

Saria is bulky and self heals i like her more than the juggernaut for sustain

because she cost half the price and half the dp

for 3/4th of the stats and better hp tanking

[willow nymph]

Jessica is like horn except she can tank better, hit air, and has less range (when the maps are kinda small for most and you're not using it to the fullest in general)

so yes jester good

[versed compass]

ya jessica and horn big advantage is they dont compete with similar ops in the ticket

same for reedic and kal tho reedic would just make caster unpicked if she went to their ticket

btw bara what do you think of greyy post module

[willow nymph]

greyyalt?

really good as far as 5* sniper go

basically perma slow aoe op

with good output

[versed compass]

ya i plan to e2 him on dead week during typhon

[tired sky]

"Screw the defender tropes, i have MONEY" - Jessica, probably.

such a shame i'm not too high on pulls, so unless i get lucky with my eyja alter/typhoon pulls i might have to skip jessica

[versed compass]

jessica did not go against the idea of defenders tbh

sure she have damage but she also play like a tank too

horn on the other hand

[willow nymph]

I wish i'll get stew easily

[versed compass]

i probably going eyja shot into one pity on ch 13 preload

actually not having any of the 3 might as will get a guranteed

[violet vortex]

Penance is great in IS to solo hold an ending 4 land

[versed compass]

lol this is funny

[versed compass]

this is kinda ehhhh

Time event thing @simple kernel

The girl who came with her mother is very cute and shy

Woulda talked to her if she were alone

[simple kernel]

u miss ur chance

but in japan i ask my female friends bout it they say

in japan if a guy no matter how handsome randomly walks up to a girl and talks its disgusting as fuck

[tribal thicket]

Ya, need to have been in a group together first

Like project or school or work or CCA

[tired sky]

is the mother cute

order an oyakodon grim

I was hoping there would be Virtuosa merch but I'm too far into the future

Grim can talk to the mom while play ak with the daughter

[tribal thicket]

[ebon sphinx]

really, that would explain why guys who do that in fiction seem to be automatically pegged as suspicious

[simple kernel]

its just nasty like u have some other motives for it

[tribal thicket]

Well, yes.

The motive of wanting s**

[serene swallow]

picking up girls at the arknights cafe

[violet vortex]

The better approach was to meet the mom first

You’d have to meet them at some point, why not start there with an opportunity in front of you

Getting lucky is just that. But some know how to leverage more tries. And some don’t even notice the tries they had

Never squander opportunity when it’s harmless & can only end well

Or how you end up not taking the opportunity in the first place, but without regret

Relationships can and are made under any circumstance fairly randomly
You don’t make friends by asking to be friends
It just happens

Plus, it’s an arknights cafe, you already share an interest

@violet vortex look at this weedy strat with no weight relic

(not mine but saw it in ako)

this is like passenger stuff but with weedy

[violet vortex]

Wild

[mossy tinsel]

That's my dream! E2 Weedy!

[hot rampart]

wait whats going on here

[violet vortex]

There are a handful of relics that give sp, based on how fast it’s going it may be based on targets hit or a non attacking one

[quaint arch]

+2 SP per hit Relic on Sea Terror

[violet vortex]

Referencing Passenger I noticed like a week or so ago hitting jellyfish with Passenger procs per target hit

So after casting skill 3

[quaint arch]

Weedy S3 hit damage calculated per tile

Go figure

[violet vortex]

The skill 3 itself charged the skill 3

So it infinitely looped

So she’s likely getting sp while the enemies are taking damage from being pushed

So it’s generating extremely fast

Because it’s almost in the form of a DoT

[versed compass]

ya weedy was farming sp on jellys on the left

and cannon push izumik for like 0.2 of the tile

[mossy tinsel]

Who should I get from red ticket shop?
-Quartz

[wanton stratus]

Does one get any in-game rewards from the mini game?

[versed compass]

30k lmd is what i got

[wanton stratus]

Not sure if I cba for that amount

It's a fun deal, I'll say

[nocturne quarry]

Think I did decent?

[nocturne quarry]

Wait how do I have a higher score than you?

[versed compass]

you sacrifaced one of the pics

[nocturne quarry]

You got more combinations though, should have higher/equal score to mine

[versed compass]

idk if more combinations matter for final score

[nocturne quarry]

How da hell

[violet vortex]

Signature at the bottom means they used another program to draw it

[fluid verge]

surtr summer skin apparently the #1 skin in the game

https://www.reddit.com/r/arknights/comments/195qwyb/arknights_statistics/

[tired sky]

unsurprising

people are more likely to buy skins for operators they own

and surtr was the single most "must-get" operator for a long time

still is among the top

so many players have her and thus, her skin becomes more tempting

[versed compass]

i think simping played a huge role too

surtr is most assistance i think?

[fluid verge]

third i think?

nvm shes #1

QUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEN

[violet vortex]

Simping for a character with some of the least lore proportional to their time out & a textbook personality of just a little rude

[hot rampart]

she is pretty hot and 99% of the playerbase likely to not care about AK lore or character lore even for this case so it doesnt matter

nowadays its always judge a book by its cover

[ebon sphinx]

https://vxtwitter.com/Yatuno_LLC/status/1746374322741215320?t=jbNrnYrMOovU54LmdEAi7Q&s=19 most exchanged operators

[hot rampart]

exchanged?

support unit or what

[quaint arch]

Most Gacha Rolled Ops?

[ebon sphinx]

its literally the 6* exchange ticket

[hot rampart]

ouh the 6* picker?

that makes sense

[tribal thicket]

Wtf Suzuran skin

Still available?

[hot rampart]

no

but it can rerun

[tribal thicket]

I blame AK for not givin enough free shits for me to open the game

[hot rampart]

damn thats crazy

She’s a university graduate

But imagine reading enough to know that; couldn’t be me

[mossy tinsel]

How would you know that tho?

[wanton stratus]

That’s one of life’s great mysteries, isn’t it?

[mossy tinsel]

I'm pretty sure you read it.

You read all her lore.

[tired gulch]

Unless you're an idiot

Perhaps buying the monthly card wouldn’t be too bad…

https://tenor.com/view/dies-from-cringe-meme-cringe-imagine-gif-23477312

[wanton stratus]

Yeah

[tribal thicket]

Don't know why people are so adamant in not paying money to support a game they enjoy, and take some sort of sick pride in it.

[wanton stratus]

Eh

If you say so

[tired sky]

specially a game as good as arknights

[versed compass]

GG second lmao

[versed compass]

just realized pokedex update show if ability is silenceable with X marker

[mossy tinsel]

That's uncalled for, some people just don't want to spend money on them.

If they want to spend money, go for it.
If not, that's fine too.

You mean they don’t spend or that they hate players who don’t?

[tribal thicket]

F2Pbtw fandom

That always complain about genshin bring stingy and shit game

Yet don't even give contribution or anything beside f2pbtw

And yet still play the game despite complaining shits

[wanton stratus]

Well, at least they’re right

(I have never played GI in my life)

[tribal thicket]

Same with AK tbh

Imagine needing to spark for guaranteed

And the pity not even carry over

75% rate up for 2 characters

[wanton stratus]

Yup, it ain’t fun

[tribal thicket]

Literally 37.5% chance

For one specific

[wanton stratus]

Actually it’s 35% for a specific one

70% for both

It’s even worse

[tribal thicket]

Oh even worse 2.5%

[hot rampart]

its not changing anytime soon cuz everytime theres a limited banner the profit spikes 4 times more

[wanton stratus]

That’s the crux with live service games

They will always maximize profit, no matter how much it worsens the player experience

[versed compass]

apparently executer s1 have better dps then mountain/blaze

average reaper gaming

♿

wait am mistaken nvm

still pretty strong for a (weak) skill on him

[wanton stratus]

According to DragonGJY Execu2 S1 is worse than atk up gamma

[versed compass]

it does similar average dps to mountain

red is executer s1

take not executer uses s1 sl7 here vs mountain m3 (orange)

its just s3 is much better skill

that you should not look at the other skills

[wanton stratus]

But why is ExeCUTEr’s skills Sl7 tho

[ebon sphinx]

https://vxtwitter.com/ArknightsEN/status/1746728916121952270?t=5qI6kAzsnwtarMJUpWh4fA&s=19 for some reason I had thought it was 18 and not 16, oh well

[hot rampart]

even so s2 is just 4 sp more than s1, more bullets per sp cost (if he evade even just once ) , higher dph and block +1

s3 eclipse all this ofc

[wanton stratus]

S2 is an infinite skill as long as you get lucky enough

[hot rampart]

its also good for when u get those attack buff from evasion books in is3

s1 is just for

absolute afk peeps

like

not even pressing a button kinda afk peeps

s2 mountain requires u to click him once not afk on god

press F for supah

[violet vortex]

The games are free so people will play them for free. People will complain about them regardless because being free has never stopped anyone from having issues (see: literally anything else in life you’ve been given or gained for free). These games are also free to spread word of mouth with the understanding that longevity comes from select big spenders. It is not a charity, it’s a business & marketing decision.

F2pbtw comes from the innate human drive to be considered the underdog/victim/minority(last one accusatory towards the majority for spending for what they have), especially in recent times. People don’t want to be considered a part of the privileged, regardless of what the reality is. So they want to be considered f2p/unlucky. This is also why some will alter the definition of f2p, by saying “f2p outside x thing I pay for.” Or how no matter how fortunate someone is, they will find a way to say they’re unfortunate overall.

[tribal thicket]

so f2pbtw people are masochist?

They get turned on by getting abused 🥵

No wonder they have stockholm syndrome

[violet vortex]

It plays into not wanting to be seen as having an advantage

The innate advantage of money

By getting lucky without that advantage. But then the same people will also complain about being unlucky, since they simultaneously don’t want to be seen as having an innate luck advantage.

Gacha players are mentally ill & constantly in conflict with wanting to be fortunate, but be seen as unfortunate.

[ebon sphinx]

victim complex eh

[tired sky]

its not only present in gachas of course, the whole underdog thing grim mentioned is very much a thing in all games

people that use weaker characters in competitive games for example often take pride in it because theyre the weaker ones and theyre not using "meta" picks

works as a sort of excuse in case they lose too

they lost because their characters werent meta/unbalanced picks

not because of skill or anything

[versed compass]

just to save on resources

[tired sky]

jesus christ, this anni is a clusterfuck

[ebon sphinx]

I don't judge people if they just love playing weaker characters because they are good or just love them. But if they do what was mentioned, that's just being a scrub

[versed compass]

eblana this anni just lose 40% hp to one yato s3

bruh

pathatic

just deleted her

actually much more weaker then normal one in her event

ok this eblana seems to have same stats as normal one

she just dont cast the shield spell cause all enemies are red and she only cast on normal in her normal version

[tired sky]

well the important thing is getting it done before tomorrow so it doesnt get in the way of event

[hallow garnet]

oh new anni

sigh

[fluid verge]

Lin covering both sides lanes

Best rat ever

[tribal thicket]

Rin actually underrated

Love her lots

1.2k defence with a -200dmg shield is pretty rad

Will be sad to replace her with Arturia

[versed compass]

she have that niche blocking gimmicks in IS

been useful to players in IS3

but then IS3 caster ticket is dead af anyway

[mossy tinsel]

Is April worth 45 yellow tickets?

[mossy tinsel]

Frostnova is scary to face against.

[wanton stratus]

She might be, if your roster isn’t great

Her damage is so low compared to the best burst units nowadays that her camouflage doesn’t properly compensate for that

[quaint arch]

(||Also Potentials matter for FRD||)

[ebon sphinx]

https://vxtwitter.com/wittleredd/status/1747077460083331225?t=UNvXcc5r0CBXwCasIntNQg&s=19 she does seem to throw scaldingly hot boiling water in her skin at least

[mossy tinsel]

[mossy tinsel]

Nah, I also got Magallan.
