Announced R6 rerun

Proceed to leave without any word

What a sigma chad

[wanton stratus]

@hallow garnet

[hallow garnet]

ssh

it's gone now

[wanton stratus]

Among us

[nocturne quarry]

My Plan:

Sad Cat > Vivi > Dragon Sibling

Cancel that, I'll just wait for the 6* ticket for Jessica

Sparking Nian's just going to evaporate all my stash

Yup, everything

And this here is after 400 x10 pulls

[versed compass]

we back into this nonsense

imagine map mechanic being stronger then any op

[versed compass]

only word was (hey we putting 4 new units)

and thats it

not even archtype announced

all we know fuze will be a guard

[bleak mirage]

I can’t wait for jessica

[versed compass]

everyone coming up is actually solid

out side of like heo

and vivi

[quaint arch]

Heo

That's intentional, no?

[wanton stratus]

Jess is more geared towards hardcore content right?

Other than that… why tf are they all so good

[versed compass]

jessica is like a normal defender but with damage

its like what hoshi wanted to be

she pretty skipable of course but still solid if you get her

[wanton stratus]

Saria in beta having 1x2 tile range

[quaint arch]

Why 6* Guardian Defenders Attack Tile are 1x1 beside Maria Nearl?

[wanton stratus]

Maria should be another archetype tbh

[versed compass]

others are all just very good
typhon follow mechanic and also bonker consistence dps
virt is ehhh but currently noone resist her
degen is irene but without the bad parts
ray heavy hitter that bind forever
zuo is strong and spammy lane holder/duelist
shu seems like the better support saria

[wanton stratus]

Saria having 1x2 tile range was literally broken which is why they nerfed her lol

[versed compass]

defenders are not consistence in range for whatever reason
like hoshi/nian have different range then other normal defenders

you dont see this in other archtypes out side of kal

[wanton stratus]

Can Shu seeds heal enmity?

[versed compass]

yes

but would not cope her as enmity healer

or any op for the matter

theres a bigger issue if enmity dies anyway

[ebon sphinx]

people with swords and stuff tend to have 1 more range

[versed compass]

hoshi have a doritos

[wanton stratus]

[wanton stratus]

Huh

[versed compass]

hi mantaro

[wanton stratus]

REEEEEEEEE, GET OFF MY BOARD

[versed compass]

boss phase 1 : heres a wall of text of my mechanics

boss phase 2 : haha am just a wraith

[hallow garnet]

ugh i hate this

so snooze

[fluid verge]

When typhoon coming

[hot rampart]

end of this month

[versed compass]

trial alone seems ass

did not cn have trial with some other stuff or something

[hot rampart]

trial was ran inbetween gavial rerun and eyja event

it has ceylon skin

also CN have typhon way earlier so they coulda use typhon for the trial bosses

[versed compass]

tbh i knew en will try to time typhon with IS

since its her IS

also i heard this trial is destroyed by pre made squads so its whatever if we miss typhon i guess

its not DOS which i heard it have hands

[hot rampart]

trial is easy yeah

but like

typhon is made for killing bosses which what trial is

so would have been useful to shill her no cap

release typhon and trial around the same time

not when it ended

[versed compass]

typhon is actually very good for general content

cause s2 have very high damage

for a perma skill

the one who feel like (pure boss murder) is ray

[hot rampart]

yes

but that doesn't take away typhon s3 following the boss

its much easier

[versed compass]

am just saying typhon is all around instead of just boss killer

[hot rampart]

aside from mobs going through where boss is

[versed compass]

anyway dont next tfn have the ch12 boss?

[hot rampart]

idk

[versed compass]

kinda annoying for typhon ngl

just realized mo reset to 0 for quests

[wanton stratus]

Wut

What are you talking about

[hot rampart]

the 200 enemy stage

[versed compass]

400

you have to redo it if you want to grab all mats in quests

[ebon sphinx]

[tribal thicket]

Damn rent is cheap in Terra

[ebon sphinx]

I think 19% repairs counts as "rent"

[tribal thicket]

That's entertainment

[versed compass]

everyone there have some damn sweettooth

[ebon sphinx]

Adnachiel: Would you like to try some of my handmade sweets? I'm kind of ashamed that I can only make 25 types of desserts. It feels like I've disgraced the Laterano people. <- consider this

Also, Insider uh, is a huge sweettooth even by Sankta standards that his frosted donuts actually was too sweet for them and he used quadruple the sugar amount of the original recipe

[versed compass]

bro i cant even think of 25 types of desserts

[ebon sphinx]

i probably can but i'd need some time to remember

though thats mainly due to my exposure to different culture foods

[nocturne quarry]

This one took a bit

Only the final 3 stages & I'm done with the event haha

[versed compass]

yato soloing ex8 cm

[wanton stratus]

As lowlight intended

Did I mess up when I didn’t buy Mizuki from the cert shop?

[tribal thicket]

You missed best waifu

F

[tired sky]

lmao no, 180 certs for mizuki sounds like a waste unless favorite

ive seen ethan used more than mizuki and it isnt even close

[wanton stratus]

I didn’t build Ethan either…

[hallow garnet]

did we not have this convo alrdy with u

or was that someone else asking abt mizuki

[fluid verge]

Yes, in the words of inori and namie, ur missing out on mizukis very soft armpits

[wanton stratus]

Ah yes

Lmao

[wanton stratus]

You did

[fluid verge]

So u gonna follow logic and meta

Or go for very soft armpits

[tribal thicket]

Going meta in a mobile gacha game

[fluid verge]

There is always a meta

[wanton stratus]

I care more about being frugal than being meta

||F2Pride ||

[hot rampart]

the only meta that matters is if its make my pp hard

[wanton stratus]

Metal pp

[nocturne quarry]

Easy enough

I can continue doing story quests now haha

Need to get to chapter 11 for Lin's module

[mossy tinsel]

Frostleaf on her way to one shot every enemy in this event.

-me who play opposite of afk

[hallow garnet]

next in cert shop is fartooth right?

[versed compass]

FIVE SUPERNOVA LIVE MOMENT: Executor alter,Swire, Exu, Ureka, Jessica ||

[ebon sphinx]

the only thing that matters is...whats the skin set

[hot rampart]

my bet on || five supernova , dreaming people ||

[ebon sphinx]

really, i am ruling out any set that has a limited, so its probably the former

[hot rampart]

uhh which one is that cuz each one has limited

[ebon sphinx]

||Executor Alter isnt one||

[hot rampart]

ouh yeah i forgot only 1 group gets skin

xd

[versed compass]

tfn3 bosses for those who want to see them

||or elites ♿||

[versed compass]

R6 leaked ops

[fluid verge]

LeoZi or astegenne

Which one to build

[wanton stratus]

Do you absolutely have to build one of them? I don’t think either is fantastic tbh…

[hot rampart]

i go with leizi if u are willing to invest into her module at least lvl 2
astgenne otherwise

4* pudding is also decent and less resource sink

[wanton stratus]

Leizi has the better talent, especially with module

But I would say Astgenne has a more solid kit

[hot rampart]

also uhh do u not have passenger or something

or just want chain electric tower spam

[fluid verge]

passenger is man 🚮

[wanton stratus]

Just wait until you remember what gender you are

[violet vortex]

The girls look so out of place here

At least the one with green dye

[hot rampart]

they already have a sprite anyway

[quaint arch]

Imejin seeing leaks

[ebon sphinx]

MEANWHILE DESTINY COLLAB

[hot rampart]

there is no destiny collab in arknights 🤫

[tribal thicket]

Meh fuck Destiny

[hot rampart]

i never play destiny but as far as i can see it looks worse than warframe

[versed compass]

the colored hair girl look like she came from cyperbunk or something

green hair girl is the 6*

[hot rampart]

her sprite definitely looks more tacticool than lana so im not surprised

[versed compass]

fair

[hot rampart]

also damn doc???

rofl

[versed compass]

enemies will prio him

thinking he is us

[hot rampart]

both have solid ass forgot to add

[versed compass]

oh just checked R6 wiki and ela one is a skin

which helped make her look way out of place

[violet vortex]

Oh that makes sense

[versed compass]

normal outfit look similar to this (still have the green hair)

[nocturne quarry]

Youngest Bro reveal?

Loose translation is "Let's eat together"

[nocturne quarry]

Welp, pulling for Doc just to pretend it's actually Doktah blasting the enemies haha

[violet vortex]

Based on Nian’s expression it’s probably lets get food poisoning together

[tribal thicket]

JAPANIZING BEAM WINS AGAIN

[tribal thicket]

NOOOO WHAT A FUCKING L

[nocturne quarry]

Think this is the third Dusk figurine

Did Nian get one yet?

[versed compass]

do anyone (trust me bro) for R6 ops archtypes?

[violet vortex]

[hallow garnet]

astgenne if you really must build one of them

[wanton stratus]

Based

[nocturne quarry]

Aight, who to E2 next?

[quaint arch]

What you got in your current arsenal?

[fluid verge]

I want this

I need it so bad

Whenever pre orders are out I'm snatching onw

[hot rampart]

remind me

[ebon sphinx]

it's from wonfes, likely expensive

[hot rampart]

tham ngan

[hallow garnet]

eyjalter

or wait

actual eyja

you dont have her e2 yet wow

yea do her

[quaint arch]

Your High Tile Arts Unit seems limited to me

Consider Adele/Fire Sheep (Caster)

(Yes, there's Lin and Dusk, but they're more on specialized stuff, not [Burst] Damage )

Also Surtr le Good

||Raise Uncle Horsey if you're somehow still lacking Physical Damage||

Oh also, Kelsuis good

Pure Damage comes in handy sometimes

[nocturne quarry]

Mylnar's already E2

[nocturne quarry]

Whoops, meant this one

[mossy tinsel]

Does anyone have a fully maxed out SA?

[hallow garnet]

wdym fully

if it's lv90 s3m3, sure probably everybody

[mossy tinsel]

Yeah that.

[hallow garnet]

if you want m9 that's probably a lot rarer

aye

imma put him up for you

[mossy tinsel]

No, not M9

[hallow garnet]

hes up go ham

[nocturne quarry]

Do not look at the screenshot I posted

[hallow garnet]

ur fine

i meant everybody whos a veteran

or follows/followed meta at some point

[nocturne quarry]

Dang, both Vifer & Kukki going to shift away from Arknights

[quaint arch]

Oh no... That YouTube Retirement train...

[wanton stratus]

NO

NONONO

[nocturne quarry]

The Vifer stream said that him, Kukki, Box2 & Yii were all in the same Discord. So it was probably a domino effect ye

[wanton stratus]

Did Box2 also quit?

[nocturne quarry]

A while ago

[wanton stratus]

Wtf

I missed that

[nocturne quarry]

At least a year now I think

[quaint arch]

(||Speaking of which, I'm taking a break too... Ever since I fell into a rabbit hole|| ||of that 2D Minecraft||)

[nocturne quarry]

||Terraria?||

[wanton stratus]

Common alt account L (I’m sorry Yuwen)

[quaint arch]

||Yep ||

[wanton stratus]

Last AK vid was 9 months ago and last AK stream was 5 months ago. Really feeling like I’ve been living under a rock right now

[quaint arch]

Like that Starfish in Bikini Bottom?

[wanton stratus]

Yes, Grandpa

He’s literally me

[nocturne quarry]

Don't really blame them, since Arknight's not exactly that mainstream for big growth. Just a bit sad that they'll be dropping the game mostly

Kukki said that he'll still make some AK video on his alt channel, but Vifer said that he's not gonna revisit it until new/interesting stuff pops up

[wanton stratus]

SUPAH is about to go from the most hated arknights YouTuber to the only arknights YouTuber

[nocturne quarry]

Finally managed to kept all the dudes alive

[fluid verge]

Feelsbadman

No fan animations from non CN content creators besides wheels

Takdes fell off a cliff, his content is pretty meh nowadays

There's still that frostbite guy

But he just drones with a bot

[fluid verge]

Lol tha map was clown fest

Angelina and perfumer to heal the shieldbros

Which map was that

[ebon sphinx]

snrk...

[nocturne quarry]

M8-6

[quaint arch]

Give it more Levels.

You sure are comfy with the damage at such levels?

[nocturne quarry]

Only +24 though, not worth it

[quaint arch]

Still better than nothing

24 * 5= 120

Since S3 is all that needed

[mighty helm]

Waiting for Dairin return

[tribal thicket]

Typhon is fat

And ugly

[violet vortex]

Looks like all the other character the guy draws

[mighty helm]

[fluid verge]

Why didn't we get this for typhon

[hot rampart]

HG missed with typhon shouldnt hv let lm7 drew her

it worked for ceobe due to her being dumb as brick so the face fits her
hool experienced brain dmg procedure

ange looks fine tho

typhon skin looks better at least

[hallow garnet]

it's not even just the derpy face

it's that the art looks outdated af

like beta-level

[hot rampart]

i dont see what u mean

typhon problem is just her face

[glacial breach]

That artist struggles a lot with faces

Just look at ceobes art

At least its not Azling tho

[tired gulch]

The time for Trials hath come

[hallow garnet]

what i mean is the art style itself

feels outdated

if you look at how crisp other arts are

cant explain it better

[nocturne quarry]

Chapter 2?

That's the chapter with W as boss right?

[hot rampart]

the only difference i see are just typhon art has crazy/too much amount of details going on

the huge bow is a big as her

[versed compass]

chap 2 is skull first fight

[hot rampart]

wasnt that chapter 3

[versed compass]

chap 3 is skull second fight

[hot rampart]

ouh ye

but wasnt the 1st fight still in ch3?

[civic linden]

getting stuck at skullshatterer is reasonable

[nocturne quarry]

Ah Skullshatter stage makes sense

[versed compass]

0 had no boss
1 had crown as mini boss and W as final
2 was first fight of skull
3 had crown and sarkaz guy as mini bosses and skull (misha) as final

[nocturne quarry]

Thought it was W so went "Huh?"

[civic linden]

w is kinda tough too tbh

for like e0 lv

[versed compass]

ah yes
such a cool team

[nocturne quarry]

lel

[civic linden]

oh trials for navigator started alredy?

[versed compass]

no i play in CN server with english text

[civic linden]

i though it would start after ideal city

[versed compass]

trial overlab often

in cn too

[mossy tinsel]

There's a guide for it tho...

[versed compass]

game seems to freeze if you click (back) while on trial

use the house if you trying to get out

[versed compass]

nvm game freeze either way

[nocturne quarry]

Finally got ||Guardmiya ||

[versed compass]

cant wait for vg amiya in chap 14

[nocturne quarry]

Fack this dude

[fluid verge]

What he do again

Can't be blocked if under 2 block?

[versed compass]

takes 2 block

and can attack citizens

decent move speed and tankness

[fluid verge]

Shred em with arts dmg

[versed compass]

i dont recall their res to def ratio

but i think any decent phy kill them

just not marksmans level phy

[nocturne quarry]

Main thing is that they just blitz for the Blue when Talulah doing her death AOE

Half my team are Medics so can't keep plopping down Guards to kill em'

Had to delay killing Talulah till the very last chokepoint to just kill em' in time

[versed compass]

use skalter s1 or ng s3 for talulah

easy cheese

for fire

[nocturne quarry]

Skalter had a S1?

[fluid verge]

It's actually quite strong

But s2 is just so comfy and braindead

Skadoot can tank a lot of DMG with s1

[nocturne quarry]

Can I work for RI?

[fluid verge]

My god this new sarkaz NPC on CN

Sarkaz woman truly a step up

[nocturne quarry]

Her?

[fluid verge]

ya

[wanton stratus]

Thank you, HG

[hot rampart]

its yostar

[versed compass]

i just did tn3

with 0 CC

[quaint arch]

Madness

[versed compass]

90% dodge?

just hit the 10%

👏

tho will change texas to s3 so she dont feel garbo

[versed compass]

time to leak

[quaint arch]

When you get 6 HP, sure

It's just how would you do that?

[versed compass]

getting him to blue box or getting 6 hp

[tidal hawk]

Guys between Suzuran or Shining, who should I get to be guaranteed in certi shop?

[versed compass]

suzuran

[tidal hawk]

Kay thanks

[tidal hawk]

The deed is done

Hope she's worth the tix

And the cert

Need to pull a little bit to get enough cert 😦

[hot rampart]

suzu will help bursting boss squad

and her s2 is fine to use as general use

[wanton stratus]

My Suzuran still has no skill masteries to this day

[sharp tartan]

Welcome

[versed compass]

your squad kinda suck if you have to use it ngl

s3 is super strong tho

[fluid verge]

s2 for braindead afk comp

[hot rampart]

hey its for afk gamers

thats pretty casual thing tbf

iirc the sl 5 barbeinheimer afk guide used suzu s2 ( and gg s2)

[versed compass]

theres a lot of bonker afk skills

mizuki being my fav

[hallow garnet]

i havent used her s3 in a long time

almost exclusively using her s2

i like afk shit

also i have to focus on manualing cheeto s2 most of the time

[versed compass]

s3 have high duration/cd so it dont take much attantion

usually if am not using s3 she is not in the squad

even in my heavy afk clears

[versed compass]

GG is so nuts this event

[nocturne quarry]

Anyone I'm forgetting?

And still debating whether to count the Lungmen characters, as Lee & Lin both did show up in Yan events xd

[nocturne quarry]

Oh wait I can test it

Alright, Lungmen counts

[hot rampart]

https://fxtwitter.com/morini_ochiteru/status/1757416841499291787

[versed compass]

theres a list in game press

just use those

[nocturne quarry]

List doesn't count the Lungmen ops. From the squad buff, Lin counts as a Yan Operator

[versed compass]

did others get more hp when you deployed lin?

the buff effect everyone

not just yan

i buffed mlynar for example

just tried it seem to count a lot of stuff

even texas alter

[hot rampart]

it buff everyone

[versed compass]

no as in texas trigger the hp buff

[hot rampart]

but the buff strength is reliant on how many yan op u have

[versed compass]

yes

texas count for that one

[hot rampart]

hah

[versed compass]

had ely + texas only on board

ely hp was buffed

i retreat texas

ely hp go to normal

[hot rampart]

must be a bug

[versed compass]

so it probably count all lungmans

even the pengilogistic

@nocturne quarry ok if you gonna count lin as yan

you gonna have to count exu/texas/sora etc as yan

[nocturne quarry]

I drop Lin in, Ling's HP increases

Huh weird

[versed compass]

keep reading what i said

it count way too many

peng ops (exu/sora/texas) count too

which imo would be way too weird to include in a yan only team

[nocturne quarry]

Would've been amazing before

[versed compass]

tags roll rarity first

so when a tag get worse they become more common

pretty much

[nocturne quarry]

Ye I know, in the past would've gotten several 5* there haha

[wanton stratus]

I forgot to buy the skins…

[nocturne quarry]

It's fine, just pray for it to occur on the next rerun

Though I think I've been praying for this skin for over 3 years now

[wanton stratus]

They haven’t rerun on CN yet. I’m deadass gonna have to wait for an entire year

I knew I was forgetting something, fml

Been hella stressed lately

[quaint arch]

Go take a break then

[mossy tinsel]

I didn't.

[nocturne quarry]

TN-3 squad's suck

DP gang? Alright cool.
Yan gang to turbo charge Ling? Cool

TN-3 Squad makes it harder dammit

[hot rampart]

..and chocolate water

[fluid verge]

Skadoot goes alter

[versed compass]

this time i fully controled it

[versed compass]

alright done

smol reword

[fluid verge]

how long did that take to do 45 levels

[versed compass]

1 clear every stage/diffeculty

[quaint arch]

"Diffeculty"

Autocorrect didn't work?

[ebon sphinx]

iirc there aren't any dailies in trials right

[versed compass]

i dont have auto currect on

and yes i said correct wrong

[versed compass]

yes nothing

clear all once

claim shit

go out

[wanton stratus]

I cleared trial 1 a fourth time on the lowest difficulty to unlock the 100 enemies killed module faster

By the way, does anyone remember which event it was that featured a ‘orundum negotiation’ where you could pick different ‘negotiation strategies’ for a chance at varying orundum amounts instead of the usual mining permits?

[ebon sphinx]

uh the Rhine Lab speesh

[wanton stratus]

I could’ve sworn it was before October but if you say so..

(Lonetrail was in October, right?)

[hot rampart]

it was around that

[nocturne quarry]

Did it with Sui Squad

Both Saria & Silence were on auto

[nocturne quarry]

Oho? I just failed a bunch of time & got to the 100 enemy naturally

[wanton stratus]

Brute force is the way

[wanton stratus]

Very nice art, do you know if it’s a reference to something?

[hot rampart]

yes a character from honkai star rail

called black swan

[ebon sphinx]

its a voice actor joke

[wanton stratus]

I see

I know nothing about HSR, so I couldn’t have figured that out by myself

Thank ye kindly, lads

[hot rampart]

i let gladiia whisper to me

[wanton stratus]

I forgot to buy the furniture sets too

[hot rampart]

its gojover

[wanton stratus]

It really is

At least they come back next year

[hot rampart]

i forgot to change furniture since 2 years ago its fine

[wanton stratus]

With the skins

I missed out on the furniture set that came out with Saileach’s banner in 2022 and that one is probably never coming back tho

I am genuinely sad that I missed the GG and Myrtle skins though

[hot rampart]

this is so sad alexa play despacito

[strong rampart]

green box?

that's new

why is Arknights going green

[versed compass]

boss rush now have those
some enemies will try to enter it in first fight and will reappear in last stage if you let them

so either you kill them early or have to handle them with last wave

[strong rampart]

AoE caster time to shine

pog

[versed compass]

enemies dont even get close to each other

[strong rampart]

wtf

lame

[versed compass]

st is pretty favored here

GG wont get distracted with trash mobs cause theres barely any

[strong rampart]

lol

GG still op

of course

[versed compass]

and one of the squad give 3 sp every 2 secs

GG play ground

[willow nymph]

Honestly this tn is probably one of the easiests

Other than first tn

[versed compass]

they also seem to have forgot to make tn4 bosses leak 5 hp

currently you can leak them

which is funny af

pre set squad can beat teh ultimate trial

[mossy tinsel]

Huh. I wasn't expecting her when I put Blaze and Angelina as rate-up operators in that blue headhunt.

[wanton stratus]

Damn, 2 people getting their first Suzuran in 3 days. Congrats

[hallow garnet]

oh wow

what a good joint op

this is a quality banner

probably the best joint op in a while

all 4 are good

[versed compass]

lee is weirdo

but the other 3 are stonks

god yato is such a bully in IS2

[hallow garnet]

lee is great tbh

ye niche but great

[versed compass]

i mean even a nerd like me barely used his niche

its just way too weird and specific

most people will see lee as a loss this banner just like ling banner

but still 75% chance of greatness is pretty high

[willow nymph]

I mean places where Lee's gonna own they'll just borrow

[versed compass]

i guess izumik is a place where borrowing is not ideal

but there barely any who play izumik high D anyway

[hallow garnet]

sure but they need people who actually own him to borrow

[versed compass]

theres whales that own everyone

and unlucky people who pulled on ling

[willow nymph]

ak gacha is so lenient that a lot do have him

shrug

[versed compass]

i mean he also shared banners with sought after ops

so many will have him without targeting him

[hallow garnet]

ak gacha is one of the worst

lol

wdym lenient

out of the gachas i play rn ak has like the 2nd worst gacha

the shop makes up for it somewhat tho

and the annitixes

but otherwise AK is just terrible

it had no pity for years

and even current pity is cope af

150 pulls and THEN the next pull is the rateup guarantee but still coinflip between 2 rateups

like

????

what fresh shit is this

[versed compass]

idk what gachas you play but i played some and each was worse

its not about the pulls needed only

but also how many you get

[hallow garnet]

on the spectrum of

gbf/fgo to pgr

i'd say ak is on the lower end

the income isnt THAT generous and doesnt justify the lack of hard pity

or the 300 spark

[versed compass]

its still pretty generous if you think about it
most players have way too many 6*
i have almost all limiteds and almost all units i wanted as f2p

[hallow garnet]

like

[versed compass]

if anything this is pretty generous

sparking/pity is whatever

[hallow garnet]

too many 6*s they didnt want

[versed compass]

the rates are solid

i get every 6* i wanted
otehrs dont seem to have issue in missing who they wanted

am only missing like 1

[hallow garnet]

and thats whta i mean

[versed compass]

in 4 fucking years of gameplay

[hallow garnet]

people who are lucky

wont complain

[versed compass]

idk i barely see anyone complain about it

you actually one of the few who i saw do that

[hallow garnet]

313 pulls for one thorns

[versed compass]

and usually complainers have bigger voice then people who are fine with it

[hallow garnet]

kinda made me salty

for life

but on the other hand i got p5 bag in 120

so

i have been blessed before too

[violet vortex]

Gbf gacha is some of the worst out there wym

In gbf you spend 300 pulls

[hallow garnet]

it is

that's why it's the lowest end of the spectrum

[violet vortex]

Get nothing

[hallow garnet]

or wdym

[violet vortex]

Okay I didn’t read it properly then

[hallow garnet]

gbf/fgo are the worst end

pgr is the best

for me personally

[violet vortex]

I’ve never had big issues with ak but I think that’s more because of how easy it is to skip things

[hallow garnet]

i dont complain much either

tbh

but thats cuz im lucky usually

with a few big outliers

like thorns

or skalter and eyalter

[versed compass]

i mean thats everyone i saw experience
which is why i rarely see any complains

[hallow garnet]

or reedic....

[violet vortex]

Think I’ve only skipped 1 unit I would’ve rather gone for but I also skipped them because of their character

[hallow garnet]

shit i threw almost 200 on reedic

for nothing

[versed compass]

i only missed out on 1 i wanted and pulled for

and i still have chance to get her in rerun

(reedic)

[hallow garnet]

i'll just tix her

eventually

i dont have the pulls to spare

im not going thru this again with a limited banner

gotta save properly

[violet vortex]

You get a 6* on average every 1 in 36 or something pulls

And pretty much everyone swings between lucky - unlucky every so often

[versed compass]

its actually pretty rare to be so unlucky and need to spark/pity

out side of old limiteds who have abysmal chance

like ya we all will remmeber that out liner one

[hallow garnet]

im very very extreme

i either get it in the free 10pull

or have to go to 300

[versed compass]

but 4 years and only one outliner is very rare i think

[willow nymph]

ak actually has a hidden hard pity now

for solo rateup banners

[violet vortex]

It was a hidden 200 before

It’s a visible 150 now

[hallow garnet]

since when

was that always a thing?

cuz im pretty sure i went over 200 for that one thorns

[violet vortex]

Over 200 then the next 6 is that character

Worst case scenario is get a 6 at 199 then take a long time to get to the next 6

[mossy tinsel]

AK Gacha is one of the worst because it doesn't have a good pity.

[hot rampart]

pgr is an exception

despite the 100% rate up + an odd SSR rarity u get just from 10 pull they have other stuff to make u use ur pulls more through weapon banners and they also introduced pets gacha (both of this is ignorable) its just the devs needed to give whales an incentive to pull more

in terms of AK i would say it was generous until the absolute stain being called limited banners

comparing it to other gachas is just comparing garbage bins A to garbage bins B

[wanton stratus]

As they say, “gambling addicts fighting over which way of going into debt is better”

[hot rampart]

AK generosity comes from the existence called top operator tag and gold certificate shop

[wanton stratus]

As was said, this is a very important factor

You’d really need to calculate the pull economy over a month or even longer to properly compare

Which would require knowledge of applied statistics, time, and a lot of data

[hot rampart]

im not a math nerd but

arknights characted release is pretty spread out from each other

like 1 new character per month

AND

it depends on u as a player to want pull them or not

when u have less impulse and doesnt think with ur dick u are very likely to save more pulls

[wanton stratus]

Sure

[versed compass]

some nerds maffed events and what not and its like 300 pulls every 6~ months

[wanton stratus]

Anyway, I think a surface level comparison like the ones above aren’t really doing the complexity of this issue justice

[hot rampart]

yeah but those saved pulls can easily be drained by a limited banner if u are unlucky

[versed compass]

kinda unrelated but i saw someone in ako who opened a new account and rolled all 4 joint ops on a day 1 account

[hot rampart]

rerolling shenanigans?

[versed compass]

dont think he rerolled alot

but even then all 4 need insane luck

~~i also remember someone who was rerolling on limited banner and ended up stopping with account with rosmo and W but that guy rerolled a lot ~~

[wanton stratus]

Got a link?

[versed compass]

forgot his name

he just popped up asking for help on how to build a team/play the game

[wanton stratus]

[hot rampart]

https://tenor.com/view/green-mile-im-tired-boss-michael-clarke-duncan-gif-16875499

[versed compass]

new ones in a month

the first time rewords/quests is all what matters

monthly farm for module mats when module blocks will run out first anyway

[wanton stratus]

Don’t remind me…

I’ll never live down the fact that I missed the ‘Under-construction Dossoles plate’ ones

[ebon sphinx]

https://fxtwitter.com/SihZari/status/1758085526064943192?t=1bDtFLbuFKFTazNOxl8iPQ&s=19 interesting, wonder how long did they spend getting it right

[wanton stratus]

“Hugging” pose, huh

[violet vortex]

Yes that’s what it is

[wanton stratus]

Alright

[violet vortex]

Mans just horny 24/7
Physical contact of any kind -> prelude to sex

[wanton stratus]

Huh

I didn’t make the full joke but it was about nsfw artist

[violet vortex]

Is that what that person is

[wanton stratus]

Yes

[violet vortex]

Alright then rephrase my comment to be about that person

Balance restored

[wanton stratus]

[hot rampart]

crisis averted

[versed compass]

wtf

[nocturne quarry]

?

[nocturne quarry]

Oh, I'm one of those rerolling limited dudes.

Rerolled for Dusk

Took up to +2 to my email if I remember correctly

Or +3

[willow nymph]

Not +69

Sad

[hallow garnet]

pgr basically has what hi3 has but better. new S rank every 2 patches and if you are full f2p and never even buy monhtly or bp you still get enough to guarantee yourself the new S rank everytime

thats damn huge

not to mention rankups being farmable but thats another topic

pets are whatever. they are cool and 20 pull guarantee but entirely skippable. they are starting become more relevant nowadays but still unless ur competing on the highest tiers of ranks you wont need them

sig weapons are good qol for newer units but the banner is permanent, with no limiteds ever. and you can select your 70% rateup wep anytime. 30pull pity

but i agree with you. AK was good until limiteds

if limiteds had 2nd idiot in there then it would be much much better and whales/skippers can still go 300 to get an older limited if they want

[willow nymph]

I just see you're getting bled out of pulls if you want more than just the char

From what you say

[hot rampart]

yes

[fluid verge]

Just don't go chasing p6 limiteds

[hot rampart]

its unavoidable when u have a banner with 2 shared rate ups and u only want one of them

[nocturne quarry]

I'm boutta get Shu P6'd

Need to spark Nian

Missing her for both niche squads that I'm building up

[hot rampart]

u are getting pot 6 zuo le

and have to spark shu

[willow nymph]

Nah i'd get 7 shu before zuo

It happened during eyjalt it can happen again

[hot rampart]

many such cases

entirely dependent on who u want
the desire sensor will give u the opposite

[nocturne quarry]

I want Nian

Nian ain't on the banner

Fight meh desire sensor

You cannot stop me

[nocturne quarry]

Joking aside, I'm cool with either Pot 6 Zuo Le or Shu haha

Both units are cool

[wanton stratus]

Y’all planning way ahead, huh

Very responsible, couldn’t be me though

[fluid verge]

Gotta p6 shu

[hallow garnet]

the point is they can be pulled anytime

no banner needed

im bled out of pulls in ak if i want a limited too

and new char only every 12 weeks

ak gives limiteds every 12 weeks

and you cant have guaranteed aomunt of pulls for those kek while you can guarantee the pgr unit

so yall are coping if u think ak gacha is better

[hot rampart]

nah and as i said pgr is an exception

its one of kuro's biggest mistake even for not being able to gain more profit without tanking their own playerbase

u won't see that kind of generosity in their next game wuthering wave

AK introduced limited banners during their "peak" and got away with it and here we are

[willow nymph]

so poor

only 150 in hh permits

[hot rampart]

i like AK for having an option to buy 38 pulls with a currency u can passively gain from free recruitment altho most gold certs gain is from pulling in actual banners and reruns 5* pots

[willow nymph]

there's is so many reruns the influx is quite high

tbh

[hot rampart]

damn ty for counting it for me

[willow nymph]

30 per

~~138 actually ~~

gross rounding be like

[wanton stratus]

You asked for it

[violet vortex]

Same people discussing how terrible ak’s gacha is

Are virtually unaffected by it

[wanton stratus]

I didn’t complain this time

[violet vortex]

Not just you it just looks like almost everyone in this channel got like

Massive stockpile + already knows to be a little picky

So very few are ever hit by the “want something but can’t get it”

[wanton stratus]

That sounds good to me

[violet vortex]

That’s why it’s weird that anyone here would have many issues with ak’s gacha

If so many including themselves are basically in the best position

[wanton stratus]

So if I have a lot of gacha resources I am in the best position, but I reached this state by not participating in the gacha as much as I could muster, so… the only winning move is to not play? (Or have unlimited money ig)

[violet vortex]

If a game easily supports it then yeah

Plenty talk about rates & income then they’re playing a game where if you aren’t pulling every other unit you’re behind

[violet vortex]

No coincidence that so many have stockpiles in this game

[fluid verge]

Damn I'm a baby compared to yall

[willow nymph]

I actually have very little because i blew my load recently

still have 100pulls so eh

[hot rampart]

entirely becuz i chose to ignore most limited banners

well not most

but i have been skipping chong yue and texas alter

and entirely skipped the recent eyjalt + swire banner cuz both doesnt interest me at all

[violet vortex]

So what’s the problem

Ability to get what you want
Skip what you don’t with basically no punishment

Any time you do roll it becomes guaranteed

The only thing better I could think of would be a game where you can get literally everything

[hot rampart]

limited chasing is a regular thing in gacha due to fomo

i chose to ignore limited

becuz if i dont im sure as hell not get to have this much stockpiled

but i cant say the same thing to the regular people

[violet vortex]

Which means the game is clearly not doing a good job at making limiteds feel necessary

Alleviating that issue

[hot rampart]

u are correct

but not everyone thinks that way

[willow nymph]

eh i have every 6* in the game

[violet vortex]

That’s their fault if a system fully supports easy access to not having many if any problems
And they choose otherwise

[willow nymph]

and didn't whale that much

actually i'm missing rosmon sorry for lying

[hot rampart]

main problem is still the limited banner double rate up
if u just want one of them and if fate is against u u have to use a lot of pulls to only get one of them

im still shocked HG got away with making their first ever limited with a waifubait and have it share a rate up with furries 💀

[ebon sphinx]

[wanton stratus]

Just overturn fate smh my head

[hot rampart]

i wil give them a grand order

[wanton stratus]

You alone are the gambled one

[hot rampart]

would you pity?
nah id sacc

[nocturne quarry]

Can still farm like another 100+ Originite from all the stage I didn't complete

[versed compass]

i chose too but they end up in my account anyway

[fluid verge]

Just don't p6 limiteds and u good

[tired sky]

whats wrong with p6ing limiteds

[hot rampart]

if u are f2p dont try it

[nocturne quarry]

Thought it said 5 LMD a month initially

[fluid verge]

Could be me and get burned by badly by p6 spalter

Too expensive

I lucked out on her banner within 70 pulls

600 something pulls later

I had to spark twice to p6

Think I got ntr(d) twice that banner too

[tired sky]

just me be and get them to p6 offbanner like it happened with chalter

got my last copy while rolling for eyja

[fluid verge]

Ntr got p6 off banner

[tired sky]

see

that easy

tbh i only have chalter and kirin p6'd

[fluid verge]

1k USD ez

[hot rampart]

1k usd 💀

[tribal thicket]

I bought someone's acc with P6 chen alter for only 50usd

1K at that point might as well buy someone's acc

[hot rampart]

yeah but that didnt come with lvl 120 acc already

and bunch of other raised operators

2 years worth of stuff

[wanton stratus]

Step 1: roll for P6 limited with existing resources but fail
Step 2: swipe hard, 1K USD
Step 3: get p6 limited, but get burned out as a result
Step 4: sell account for 50 dollars
Step 5: win(?)

When did you buy your acc btw?

[bleak mirage]

Lol

[tribal thicket]

2 years ago

[tribal thicket]

Tbf, AK accounts now are super cheap

[nocturne quarry]

Oh shite

Artillery hits through Firewatch camouflage

Was hoping she's immune in invis

[wanton stratus]

The fact that someone P6’d Chalter, who came out in January 2022, probably spending hundreds of dollars and then selling of the account for 50 usd 1-2 months later is fucking wild

Whoever they are, they are a strong person for managing their composure in the most violent throes of sunk cost fallacy and escaping with their sanity intact

[tribal thicket]

Tbf dude could just luckshit get them under 100 draws

[wanton stratus]

In that case bro was the luckiest player on global

[hot rampart]

nah thats possible

i pot 5 rosmontis under 100 pulls

[queen sequoia]

Is there anyone here that can’t exchange tokens to green and yellow certificates?
The game is telling me I don’t have any yet in my inventory i can still see I have some.

[hot rampart]

some of them is probably not max pot yet

so they just chilling there

waiting to get potted

then actual excess ones will get exchanged

[queen sequoia]

No they are already max pot.

One is 5 star

[hot rampart]

thats weird can u show a screenshot

[queen sequoia]

Gimme a second

I just recently got frostleaf and can only exchange certificates for her and not the others

[violet vortex]

Looks like a problem with kernal tokens

Going by the icons

Frostleaf has the normal pot icon

[queen sequoia]

Oh

[queen sequoia]

So it’s a bug then

[violet vortex]

Can you exchange them in the blue section

[queen sequoia]

Yes I can

[violet vortex]

There is your answer

Kernal tokens = Blue only

[queen sequoia]

Ok but why? I wanted to exchange to green and yellow certificates
