Arknights

[versed compass]

shawl at home

[ebon sphinx]

either a game changer or utterly useless :<

[versed compass]

utterly me is game changer

it helped a little first fight

very useful

[versed compass]

@hot rampart found another map with multiple defenders

[hot rampart]

i got 2 shielder on the map with chongyue event enemies

1 for each lane it was great

[hot rampart]

damn that one is decent
the other one i found is pretty meh

[versed compass]

actually hard carried

ya this relic also good

this relic is nuts

from what i learned it dont shuffle dp like white flower

instead it roll a number from -60% to +20% for dp/redeploy every fight

[hot rampart]

NO WONDER

i took it without thinking much cuz I don't want double dp cost (with other double stuff) on one operator

then i see the cost shuffle is like way lower than usual

[hot rampart]

ouh it can be more expensive

💀

[versed compass]

but only slight amount

20% is not game breaking

but 60% is

and with ops like skadi it account for base deploy time

so you end up with shit like 3 sec skadi if you roll high

funny as hell

only issue is dp 💀

camo saving me again (cannot rob f6)

[versed compass]

[strong rampart]

Wtf

GN is back

[versed compass]

bypassed her and the boss

[versed compass]

also we actually get her lore now

this is GN pre evo

[strong rampart]

Wtf

[versed compass]

notice the move speed here btw

she fucking zooms

[strong rampart]

Yes

SS move speed is

Monka

[versed compass]

dogs are S+ btw

she is faster then dogs

the funny part is

theres 2 other enemies with SS move speed in same IS

litirally zoomers

[strong rampart]

Not as fast as me

[versed compass]

its a new (race) of enemies like sarkaz

all have some sort of move speed boost

or have SS speed

[strong rampart]

[versed compass]

[strong rampart]

They trying to make 2x dangerous

[versed compass]

this one also boost move speed of others by hitting them

one of them walked to here before mlynar finish the swing and get hit anyway

mlynar aim hack

[strong rampart]

Thats how most ranged work

Once they start the wind-up on an enemy & it moves outside the range, it still get shot

Mlynar just that op

[versed compass]

meanwhile ifrit will miss every single enemy this event

[willow nymph]

[willow nymph]

Funniest thing tbh is stacking transform things into rogue traders with any other green buff

Like double ingots

Or temp recruits

[hallow garnet]

these runners everywhere

it's so wild going into these stages blind

didnt even watch any playthru this time

[hot rampart]

[tough matrix]

Man, I really want to get Lin

But if I do that, I will have less savings for the new Nian's sibling

[hot rampart]

fartooth sucks

[fluid verge]

Fartooth is cope

Unfortunately

[tough matrix]

I just want Lin man

[hot rampart]

[willow nymph]

[strong rampart]

[hot rampart]

WHAT??????

[versed compass]

its not even on the list when you check unlocked debuffs

[hot rampart]

LMAOOOO

[versed compass]

like its a secret

you can play a game of guess of who those ops are

(whos that pokemon)

[willow nymph]

Let me try from left to right
Totter blemi ely greyyalt pram eyjalt

[versed compass]

you got them

how about middle one here

i failed

fuck

[mossy tinsel]

I pulled her thrice from 2 different banners, I guess she really wanted to join Rhodes Island.

[wanton stratus]

Hey @fluid verge, where’s the Phantom Thief W artwork in your pfp from?

[fluid verge]

https://www.pixiv.net/en/artworks/106907485

[willow nymph]

Man stun anim make it hard

Is it matterhorn?

[hot rampart]

a familiar face

[versed compass]

dammit you got it right

i stunned him on propose to make it harder

[hallow garnet]

typhon module done yay

[hallow garnet]

but how the fuck do i not get a single sniper recruit

it's insane

i am keep getting fkin supporter

and defender

...........

are you kidding meeeeeeeeeeee

[fluid verge]

defenders good tho no?

u need them to block the speedy demons

[hallow garnet]

ye but i dont have the damage

to kill them with

lin aint gonna solo carry this

i couldnt even pick up a strong medic yet to keep her alive

[fluid verge]

s1m3 lin doko

[hallow garnet]

s3 is fine

if i had a strong medic

to keep her alive

and i made it to the boss stage

with a clown ass comp

im not gonna clear with this shit

i dont even know what the boss does

i think im gonna look it up now

got typhon at the last store

but welp

i mean i could try to kill da boss with exalt

okay ima ctually doin it

blue fkin woman

to the win

and sexas

phew

this fight is less hard than i imagined

[versed compass]

boss one is simple

he kinda remind me of UT boss

[hallow garnet]

yea this was surprsingly simple

this was bear

like

literally bear

but easier

cuz it doesnt hit hard if i hit it

[versed compass]

feel more like ut boss
big boss thats a punching bag and do attack your units with some damage

[hallow garnet]

exalt was a good starter pick

he carried a lot early

before blue woman got her summon relic

[versed compass]

generally aoe/blocker is ideal for this IS

they shit ton of stuff

[hallow garnet]

all these runner shits tho

[versed compass]

early

[hallow garnet]

make me think gnosis might be gud here

[versed compass]

they might out run him tbh

superisingly theres a secret kiddo that do very good

greyy alter

[hallow garnet]

[versed compass]

no joke the kid is doing work

[hallow garnet]

i mean

hes alrdy e2 for me

so

i can try

but

how so

[versed compass]

his module is needed at level 1+

[hallow garnet]

isnt he just ros?

[versed compass]

will just level 1

ros dont slow every auto

his auto have chance to slow

every wave

which is why you want module to get that extra wave

[hallow garnet]

so why not just piss then?

[versed compass]

resulting in many slow procs

[hallow garnet]

if ur lookin for slow on auto

[versed compass]

piss is worse in slowing

worse range too

also cost twice the hope

[hallow garnet]

hmm

anyway first clear

yayge

[versed compass]

just did my D11 recently

i need to get a reedic

[hallow garnet]

hmm

so greyy alter

need any mastery?

probably not

cuz just autos

s1 seems better to use in general too

if we just go for the autos

[versed compass]

i have him m6

both skills seems nice but i like 1 more

[hallow garnet]

oh i didnt get his skin

weird

but im happy he has good use now

[willow nymph]

he is simple until emergency

god the emergency of that map is aids

[hallow garnet]

theres emergency version of boss?

[willow nymph]

tldr of it is
doubled enemy counts
3 Saxo guys are prespawned on the right

and the added enemies are all annoying as hell

[versed compass]

emer/alter is up now or is it in future update?

[willow nymph]

after expansion all end bosses get emergency from n12+

[versed compass]

ah

i guess that will be a fun hunt

i know they also made it shinier to do endings on D12 post update

so i plan to do all endings on D12+ lol

[hallow garnet]

anyway

should i m6 greyy then?

or just m3 one

[willow nymph]

just m3 s2

it's better 95% of the time

[hallow garnet]

okay

who else is considered for is4 then

i watched that dragongjy vid

but no mention of greyy

so now im doubting the man

oh mod2 looks nice too

im almost out of module blocks

sheesh

i might just stayon on mod1 then

tho mod2 seems pretty nice

for overall team support

10% dmg from all sources sounds pog

yea i'll just grab it

[hallow garnet]

also i wonder

hows swire opener?

i see a lot of holes

so she could transition into pusher later

maybe i should s3m3 her too

[willow nymph]

kinda garbage as all 1 block openers are

damage is on the high side so she's fine ish paired with cardi or spot

she truly owns lategame tho

love her on later floors

tho she take a bit of practice because her preferred skill change depending on your team

[willow nymph]

I LOVE HAVING ALL MY OPS AT -75 ASPD

[hallow garnet]

tbh she kinda feels fine for opener. her being 1b dont matter cuz mobs dont even get to her with s2

[willow nymph]

(fairly major oversight)

[hallow garnet]

also i forgot that greyy cant hit air

kek

[hallow garnet]

ooooh. tell me more

[willow nymph]

well first off short cd heli burst is great, second diagonal push can be abused in a lot of late game maps

third she doesn't insta die even if she spawns at -60% hp

fourth s2 is pretty good at helping more than 1 lane

[nocturne quarry]

ohh, I wanna see Firewatch with that debuff

One attack every 10 second

[hallow garnet]

so m6 worth? mod1 enough?

shes only mod1 s2m3 for now

[willow nymph]

mod2 atk buff is quite massive

[hallow garnet]

sheesh

the last of my mod blockthen can go to this

unless theres something more pressing

[versed compass]

i once got this with temp flame

she dodged every attack

until tola came

and one shot her during skill

god dammit flame

[tired gulch]

I'm just lingering in IS3

[hot rampart]

leave skadi

NOW

[tired gulch]

I killed her

Now I must kill Mizuki

[hot rampart]

https://vxtwitter.com/NoContextArkn/status/1766417385282744789?s=19

[wanton stratus]

The lore is immaculate

By the way, memes aside, how many of you got the Saileach swimsuit skin? And is it worth it to buy?

[ebon sphinx]

i did and i thought it looked nice

[hot rampart]

i did and i like boobs

[tribal thicket]

Can't beat Saileach feet

[wanton stratus]

To each their own, I guess

[wanton stratus]

I respect it

[tough matrix]

should I

[hot rampart]

guarantee and dip

[tough matrix]

I got hoolheyak (I actually want her)

I hate grinding for chips

man, I want to pull Typhon, but I also want to get Shu

[versed compass]

finally took revenge on this damn encounter

4 6* e2s by end of F2

[versed compass]

did not even click mlynar

[tough matrix]

now I have no regrets

[nocturne quarry]

Opening's really cool

https://youtu.be/w9mrWH-gSkw?si=eWl6nByWWSG8xYR-

[hallow garnet]

alr i decided

i'll m6 swire

i kinda like her as an opener

and i kinda like her diagonal push

[versed compass]

they kept spamming the ranged tickets and now i feel i need to get some units raised for those tickets

[hallow garnet]

i dig swire

fkin surprise i know

ines mvp tho

[versed compass]

i should raise mine too

but first i need to e2 val

and crystal maidan

[wanton stratus]

Bro?

Why E2 CM tho

[versed compass]

why not

[tired gulch]

Huh. Remind me when exactly Gavial's first event came up?

[quaint arch]

2nd year?

I mean the 2nd Summer Event

[tired gulch]

No. I mean the one with IS1

[tired gulch]

Conclusion. Gnosis made Gravestone an utter joke

[tired gulch]

Second conclusion. Gonna need more blockers to ward off his kids. This is gonna be a handful.

[hot rampart]

u need mlynar , chalter for this

tons of aoe

are u tryna cheese mizuki with weedy or something

yeheee boi

[hallow garnet]

whho?

[quaint arch]

Crystal Maiden

(It's actually Santalla)

It's a joke

[hot rampart]

no its real

[ebon sphinx]

her S2 is Crystal Maiden Snowfall

wait no

Freezing Field

[hot rampart]

gonna miss these rune totem things in is5

good thing were only 1 week into is4

[willow nymph]

I think some sort of runes will stay

Those add just way too much to the experience

[hot rampart]

but it also made it way way easier

in a good way sort of

it gives them an excuse to make out of control again

[wanton stratus]

March or April 2021

Iirc

I remember Tectone talking about it when it showed up on CN which must’ve been before he quit in November-December 2020 after going nuclear on the community

[tired gulch]

More like, my very first run

[tired gulch]

So... 3 damn years

[wanton stratus]

Indeed, it’s been a while

[tired gulch]

And I killed Gravestone for the first time today. I feel old

[willow nymph]

The f6 maps are way more fucked than is3's

So i call this a win win

[versed compass]

good thing we can easily counter F6 maps with flodrals

[tardy vigil]

is arknights beginner friendly?

[willow nymph]

Yes

[tardy vigil]

how long per day/week it takes time?

assuming I never read shit

[willow nymph]

If you're not progressing content it's like 15mins a day twice

Not very high upkeep gacha

Game does have a lot of stamina free stuff to do

+regularly events you have to clear

[tardy vigil]

And progressing content as I heard kinda hard

So might take long depending how dumb you are

[hallow garnet]

if ur dumb just follow kyostinv or eckogen guides on yt

they do stage-by-stage guide for literally everything using low rarity units

takes the fun out of the game but good crutch if ur in a hurry or dummy

[tardy vigil]

Surely I'm smart

[tardy vigil]

I don't have fun playing games

So not an issue

[nocturne quarry]

I'd recommend upgrading the 3* and 4* first to use

5* and 6* a bit too expensive to raise at the beginning

Fang & Kroos are the standout 3*

And you can clear old events for free 6* & 5* to use

[willow nymph]

just raise the good 4*s first yeah

4*s are really goddamn strong in this game

and cheap to raise

[nocturne quarry]

If you really wanna raise the 5 and 6 stars, it's fine to do it. Just gonna take a bit longer to grind.

Like when I started, I only raised 5 and 6 stars. Dusk & Angelina in my case. Not exactly what you'd call meta units. And I'm doing fine haha. But if I raised the 3* and 4* instead, I would've had a way faster progression.

[tardy vigil]

Wtf is arknights endfield?

It's like genshin (but isn't released)?

[nocturne quarry]

Uh, think of it as a spinoff, but set in the same universe

Higher budget too. Different gameplay. Arknights is Tower Defense, Endfield is like action RPG + base management

[tardy vigil]

Base management

[willow nymph]

basically it's a sequel in the somewhat distant future and another planet

because everyone's gonna die in arknights

from like

20 different reasons

💀

There's a whole non-canon mode about the struggles of the survivors after the end of the world by seaborns

[versed compass]

hey they get out after a while or something

[willow nymph]

only in izumik ending

Izumik a real g

[versed compass]

oh right knight ending

[versed compass]

d15

[willow nymph]

gg

[versed compass]

am really happy they let us use 3* again

[mossy tinsel]

Yeah, save your resources for 3* and 4* operators.
Don't immediately use them on a 6* operator.

[versed compass]

nah

6* still too broken

am just happy that my 3* dont cost 1 hope

so i can go 6 and 3 for most part

[versed compass]

like my whole clear is just 6 stars and 3 stars

[hot rampart]

https://vxtwitter.com/NoUgrad/status/1766913665671033190

skabidi

[fluid verge]

yo how tf u beat these speed demons

who are your starters?

this is4 is throwing me in for a loop

[willow nymph]

random voucher start

for example just now i've done humus lin spot

very highrolly

last one was e2 valarqvin+Fang

[fluid verge]

how u get the cyclops?

[willow nymph]

by playing is

[versed compass]

i always play as your heart desire

but if you want something conisstence you can go something like spot + lava + 6* sniper i guess

or pupokar reedic like most players

[hot rampart]

popukar, reedic

gavial, ansel is decent too

[tardy vigil]

Is there a reroll strat?

I was never a huge fun, but if it makes my gameplay easier then why not

I guess there is, with any method to choose

[tribal thicket]

cringe

[wanton stratus]

Should’ve been Skadibi instead

[hot rampart]

nah skabidi is better

[violet vortex]

Anyone not picking heart’s desire will be reported

[tribal thicket]

meta cringe

https://tenor.com/view/cringe-gif-24463133

[strong rampart]

^

[hot rampart]

so true

non meta players always go for heart's desire

[violet vortex]

Heart’s desire is for everyone

Both optimal & the only fun choice

[hallow garnet]

how good is arturia btw?

im looking at the upcoming stuff

[hot rampart]

really good

[hallow garnet]

hmmm

if you had to set up a prio order for all upcoming shit what would it be

if we disregard the "i wanna collect all limited" thign

[hot rampart]

ela (r6s) > virtuosa > degen > shu

[hallow garnet]

really

ela that good

[hot rampart]

i didnt disregard her limited status

but she is very good

[hallow garnet]

disregard it

[hot rampart]

nuh uh

[hallow garnet]

im not gonna skip her

dont worry

i just wanna see where they stand

jess and hoe are skips

ray idk

zuo le seems pogger

[hot rampart]

ray is very good

[hallow garnet]

but just gimme what i ask 😄

[hot rampart]

typhon tier

[hallow garnet]

pretend they arent limited

[hot rampart]

ela > virtuosa > degen > shu > ray

[hallow garnet]

interesting

i dunno what ela does

but wow she must be strong

and i didnt know arturia was that op

i thought degen was the best upcoming up

[hot rampart]

ela does shitton of dmg with s3
her s2 makes her pseudo aoe sniper thats actually has good damage
her mines also has a lot of utilty : s3 inflict fragile and slow , s2 has stun

[hallow garnet]

so shes doro

[hot rampart]

no

[hallow garnet]

but more utility

?

[hot rampart]

her mines dont do damage

[hallow garnet]

HUH

[hot rampart]

shes basically a sniper

[hallow garnet]

shes doro but sniper

so shes doro but mumu mimic

[hot rampart]

all her dmg comes from her attacks

[hallow garnet]

i see

[hot rampart]

and her mines can be activated when enemy walks within 3x3 of its tile

and she can be deployed on melee tiles with her module

cuz her s2 also gives her def

she does a lot of things while being very good on the damage department

cant pass on that

[hallow garnet]

and arturia banner is stronger than shu zuo le

even with vivi being a dumpsterfire

[hot rampart]

i didnt take that into consideration actually

vivi definitely drags arturia banner down

[strong rampart]

There’s an op named Degen

[hot rampart]

degenbrecher

[strong rampart]

Degen Breaker

[hot rampart]

i let her break me

[hallow garnet]

ikr

[hallow garnet]

the boss from gnosis event

[hot rampart]

she is not garbage

but its just

a kit that be good if she was released in AK 2020

[hallow garnet]

i havent looked into arturia enough

but didnt realize she was this strong

that you'd put her over shu zuo le banner

[hot rampart]

think of it as suzu that deals damage

[strong rampart]

Apoptosis Damage

Sounds painful

[hallow garnet]

where would you put zuo le?

[hot rampart]

zuo le does look good but he is ur typical laneholder unit

[hallow garnet]

in terms of power

hmm

[hot rampart]

under ray

shu is only utility but a very odd fun one

[hallow garnet]

ikr

[hallow garnet]

so hes exalt-level?

[hot rampart]

yeah

[hallow garnet]

neato

kinda wish we get other males

than guards

but

it is what it is

at least most males are strong

hoederer crying in the skip corner

[hot rampart]

dw i will pull him

[hallow garnet]

also we should be getting a reedic solo rerun sometime

[hallow garnet]

oh?

i'll give him a 10pull

for collection

but i dont really see big uses for him

[hot rampart]

another typical laneholder

[hallow garnet]

crusher dont seem like a good class

[hot rampart]

but he isnt flashy

its like some mountain sidegrade

[hallow garnet]

but without full uptime

[hot rampart]

no he deadass has a

toggle skill

[hallow garnet]

oh s2

okay so overall the order would be

ela > arturia & vivi > degen > shu & zuo le > ray > jess > hoederer ?

[hot rampart]

yea

that fits

[hallow garnet]

ookay

[hot rampart]

i just rank it in terms of

utility+damage > damage > utility

jess and hoederer doesnt have that much respectable damage

jess is still good but she definitely more towards being a good defender that just happens to deal damage

[hallow garnet]

well we cant roll everybody

i still have to get reedic

will she be in the next selector?

we should get one during arturia

[hot rampart]

yes

the selector is up until ines

im kinda planning to get qiubai from it

[hallow garnet]

ooo great

so i dont need solo reedic banner then

just can get her from selector

[hot rampart]

and roll her from spook like 2 months later

(i experienced it with fia)

https://tenor.com/view/cat-orange-cat-cat-feeder-cat-feeder-camera-cat-camera-gif-1435288208602596413

[hallow garnet]

i never experienced it before

so im safe

also i dont have anybody else to pick

so

chewbye i guess

is the only i dont have

and fartooth

but

fartooth yall said not worth picking up from shop

[hot rampart]

fartooth

her only niche was the evasion ignore

and thats no longer a niche

global single line tile attack range

single line

[hallow garnet]

yea no

[hot rampart]

[hallow garnet]

in general

whos the best overall pick from selector

mlynar right?

i have a friend who recently got back

so im sure they gonna ask who to pick

[hot rampart]

mlynar no contest

[hallow garnet]

they will want gg i think

but gg should be in shop sometime

[hot rampart]

mlynar > ines

[hallow garnet]

ines that high up

wowge

i would have said reedic before ines

[hot rampart]

ines offers too much utility and still have decent chunk of dmg

reed is best at being the no 1 caster

as of currently

[hallow garnet]

hmmm

did chewbyes ranking change?

i technically could roll reedic

[hot rampart]

meh not really

[hallow garnet]

and pick chewbye

but yea

then no

[hot rampart]

u can skip qb tbh

[hallow garnet]

just gonna save pulls

[hot rampart]

literally walmart ines

ethan is too goated at binding enemies

[hallow garnet]

mm

[hot rampart]

this year august

so sort of close i guess

[versed compass]

so true

only reason to go non heart desire is for first run cause heart desire is banned

and only to concede first node to start with heart desire

[hot rampart]

when the heart desire 2 medic ticket

[versed compass]

thats my reed opener

or pure stream + blitz and dying to first node

[hot rampart]

yeah pray the 3rd one isnt a ranged class

[versed compass]

i blame yuwen blitz being 3 levels below max

[versed compass]

they changed it in IS2 i think
you cant have 3 ranged or 3 melee anymore

[hot rampart]

huh really

[versed compass]

i never seen a 3 melee/3 ranged ever since IS2 release

of course you can pick ranged specalist to force ranged only for example

but still specalist ticket is counted as (melee)

[hot rampart]

specialist ticket has reserve vanguard right

[versed compass]

yes

vg/g/def/spec are melee classes

other 4 are ranged classes

[hot rampart]

😭 😭 😭 😭

[quaint arch]

What? You want me to Raise it to Max?

I'm waiting for Virtuosa Event before I come back

[hot rampart]

obviously that +3 attack and +2 def gonna be crucial

[versed compass]

yes he would win if he was max

trust me bro

[strong rampart]

I used Fartooth to bully Playwright

Unironically the global line is useful there

[hot rampart]

i used Schwarz theres no difference

[strong rampart]

She can spawncamp him from top left corner

Schwarz can’t

[hot rampart]

Schwarz can

[strong rampart]

Not from top left

Her range is too short

[hot rampart]

i played on "hard" difficulty

deadass that doesn't matter

theres a tile top left

[strong rampart]

shrug

Fartooth also has reverse taunt, which Schew does not have

[hot rampart]

reverse taunt? what

[strong rampart]

Yes

Less likely to be targeted

[hot rampart]

wow thats so useful

u know whats that called

deployment order

[strong rampart]

Why use brain

When I can just not use brain

[hot rampart]

u are fucking right

[strong rampart]

[hot rampart]

i used chalter 80% of the time to kill playwright

[strong rampart]

There u go

Ezpz 0 brain required

[hot rampart]

yeah why bother fartooth at that point

[strong rampart]

Because I like Fartooth

And she gets that op relic I forget

The execute relic

[hot rampart]

that didnt work on bosses during is2

[strong rampart]

Yeah ik

Still op

[hot rampart]

nah its mid ah

recently got buffed on is 4

and typhon,rosa is better for it

[strong rampart]

Now ur asking me to grind mats to build new ops

That’s asking too much

(New for my acc)

[hot rampart]

yeah ik its a tall order for u

[strong rampart]

Well

Post-secondary does that

[hot rampart]

it is what it is

[strong rampart]

Kama, write my essay for me

So I can farm

[versed compass]

modules were too horrible for fartooth its actually sad

first he module is basic shit
her second module is like worst version of first module
and they give heavy shooters module for anti dodge

delta will save fartooth

[strong rampart]

Too many ppl malding Manlet & Phantom

And not wanting to roll Fartooth

Kalt cleans up Manlet anyway

[hot rampart]

that is the only time fartooth is relevant + dodgy seaborns during spalter

[strong rampart]

Does Schwarz have 100% dodge ignore with module

I can’t recall

Hell I even have Schwarz maxed out ffs

I’ll just use both

[tardy vigil]

man, rerolls arent as resource intensive as I expected

googling how to do them takes much more memory

[strong rampart]

57 Chrome tabs what the fuck?

[tardy vigil]

only 21 are open, idk what this number is

oh, its processes of chrome

[fluid verge]

Yea okay

We know what those tabs are

Show us those cat pics

[hot rampart]

yes she does

straight up evasion ignore

[quaint arch]

Mod X

Shooting at a Straight Line deals 5% More Damage and makes it undodgeable

[versed compass]

yes schwarts and pozy do

[quaint arch]

[versed compass]

in straight line

which is what fartooth does

[quaint arch]

Schwarz capitalize the Mod better

Tho Advotya damage is still higher

[wanton stratus]

Schwarz mod X (the redeployment time reduction one) was a mistake

It should’ve been a delta module but they hadn’t figured out that concept back then

[hot rampart]

no the mistake is still fartooth module

they made mod X and mod X 2.0

smh

[wanton stratus]

But imagine Pozy with mod X

[hot rampart]

nah thats actually pretty decent

some frd sniper is neat

[wanton stratus]

Literally what the typewriter is for

To not have to retreat her

[hot rampart]

yeah they saw schwarz with the mod x was kinda cool

and give pozy lil schwarz

[tardy vigil]

Apparently rerolls are just 8 pulls per acc

but with 2% its still kinda big

[hallow garnet]

ooo she pretty. she good for anything?

[versed compass]

more like mod X and mod X at home

[versed compass]

she is ehhhh pretty hot

on my way to e2 her too

dont need much reasoning do i

[willow nymph]

she's an ok is4 opener

actuallly

i don't dislike it

[versed compass]

same train

[hallow garnet]

can u give me an is4 opener tierlist?

or like

maybe a top 10

or something

im just intrigued

i kinda dig swire open for no reason

[wanton stratus]

Damn, rerolls were so much easier on launch since there weren’t too many 6*. What ops are you aiming for?

[willow nymph]

the run down is really
is there a defender in 3 vouchers -> take ranged w aoe
no defender -> take galter/spalter depending on availability

for me

[tardy vigil]

archer girl on the limited banner

they give 5100 gems after 0-2 but 10pull on limited cost 6k

[wanton stratus]

That’s an event banner, not a limited one

But alright

Good luck mate

[tardy vigil]

what sorts of banners are in this game

[willow nymph]

event standard JO and limiteds

oh and collab limiteds

events have 1 rateup 6* 2 rateup 5*
limiteds have 2 rateup 6* one being limited the other isn't and 1 rateup 5*
JO have 4 rateup 6* but don't have offrates
Standards are trash don't pull on them
collab limiteds are like event banners but there's a hard pity at 120 that guarantees the limited

[nocturne quarry]

Limited banner comes every 6 month. You can obtain past limited 6* in these banners & can spark for them here after 30 x10 pulls.

Collab Limited have guaranteed limited unit after 12 x10 pulls. It may or may not get a rerun. We dunno.

Thus far, these are the collabs.
Rainbow 6 Siege: Getting a rerun & new units in the future

Monster Hunter: Kirin R Yato as thr 6 star, thus far no reruns.

Destiny 2: ??? - Unkown when

Nine-Colored Deer: Free 5 star, no reruns yet

Luo Xiao Hei: Free 4*, no reruns yet

[glacial breach]

Might as well say limited chars are also out of reach for non whales unless they save for 6 months+

And spark them

[nocturne quarry]

Ye

[tardy vigil]

I will mash on big bow waifu

[hallow garnet]

just get lucky bro

[nocturne quarry]

Fair enough, Typhon's good haha

[hallow garnet]

cries in 300 pull for skalter and eyja

[tardy vigil]

what is spark

[nocturne quarry]

And you'll get a free skin after doing some IS4 runs

[glacial breach]

Dont think Ive ever gotten an off banner limited while pulling for one

[willow nymph]

that's big fat lie

[tardy vigil]

so 30 pulls = unit on a rerun?

[hallow garnet]

on limited banner after 300 pulls u can select any of the rateups and get them

[willow nymph]

gran has them all with careful spending

he's f2p

[tardy vigil]

ok really interesting story

(will not happen)

[glacial breach]

If you pull them on their release banners yes

I meant after their initial run

They're practically impossible

[willow nymph]

just save for the 300

it's actually not that outlandish

[glacial breach]

300 pulls as f2p is like 8 months of saving

[tardy vigil]

so just pull on event banners I guess

[willow nymph]

if you really like a character

[hallow garnet]

if you want it save for it

[willow nymph]

closer to 5 because of the currency we get from other sources

[hallow garnet]

if you dont wanna save then you dont want it enough

[glacial breach]

Saving for 8 months also means skipping for 8 months

[nocturne quarry]

Ye 30 x10 pulls. So in total 300 pulls.

You get about 20 free pulls, so lower that to 28 x10 pulls.

[hallow garnet]

life do be like dat

also i dont think it's 8 months

[willow nymph]

ye

[hallow garnet]

but i didnt do the math myself

[nocturne quarry]

6 months worth of pull ticket from events should lower it to like 23-24 x10 pulls

[glacial breach]

Arknights is pretty damn bad with how little pulls per months it gives you actually

Its like not even 20

[willow nymph]

you get 24 and lottery is like 10~15 pulls

• 3 from event and PO is also pulls

[tardy vigil]

so game aint f2p friendly

[willow nymph]

that's almost 50

[nocturne quarry]

Nah 100% F2P friendly

[glacial breach]

If you want every unit, its not f2p friendly no

[willow nymph]

well DUH

it's a gacha

[tardy vigil]

if I dont care for 90% of units then?

[hallow garnet]

it is cause f2ps shouldnt have every unit

[willow nymph]

it's 100% f2p friendly

[tardy vigil]

I dont mind if rngesus gives me smth else

[hallow garnet]

and you dont even NEED every unit

[nocturne quarry]

Kyo can clear everything stage with base 3* & 4*

[hallow garnet]

there are some very strong cornerstone archetypes, if you get 1 of each ur set for life

[glacial breach]

Theres no gacha where you NEED premium chars to win

Its a moot argument

[hallow garnet]

if ur f2p u just have to be more mindful about your choices

thats all

[willow nymph]

Blud never played a pvp gacha

lmao

[nocturne quarry]

Dunno bout' that boss

I've played WotV and Fire Emblem Hero

[hallow garnet]

tell that to any gacha with a ranking system or pvp

[nocturne quarry]

[glacial breach]

I meant actual good games tho

[willow nymph]

*There's no gacha

[glacial breach]

Semantics

[hallow garnet]

xd

[nocturne quarry]

Dragalia did needed some Gala units during the Agito events

[hallow garnet]

arknights monthly income is pretty shit

i agree on that

[nocturne quarry]

And Dragalia's great

[hallow garnet]

people defend the system a lot

but with how little we get

and hard pity being like 150+ pulls

[glacial breach]

You get some primes for doing event stuff but it doesnt translate into pull currency very well and rather use them on skins

And a few headhunting permits in event shops

[willow nymph]

I do hate limited spark i just think the system is fine otherwise

[hallow garnet]

but since all of us have been mostly lucky im inclined to believe that it's not that bad

[willow nymph]

i've not been lucky

[hallow garnet]

my luck dried up lately too

[nocturne quarry]

Didn't Eyjalter dodge you?

[willow nymph]

I don't think an average of 250 pulls every limited is lucky

[hallow garnet]

yes she did

i detest the limited banner system

spiking it with a non-lim

is so trash

[glacial breach]

Im still mad I dont have spalter

And will probably never

[hallow garnet]

but i put on my bigboy pants

and opened wallet

[willow nymph]

just save 300 and ... spark her?

like yeah that's just an option

[glacial breach]

And skip new good chars for 6 months?

[hallow garnet]

then u dont want her enough

[willow nymph]

I'm carefree with my spending of pulls because i whale

[glacial breach]

If you could actually get somewhat value out of whaling in this game though, you dont even get that much orundum out of the 100 dollar pack

[willow nymph]

I don't pull for everyone but i do pull the majority of ops

[tardy vigil]

so as f2p I will just not pull because no freebies, but still beat everything
honestly whatever, no weapon banners is a W

[hallow garnet]

pull very carefully

you gotta plan ahead

[nocturne quarry]

It's like 2 event every month

So two sets of 3x HH tickets.

6 month should give 36 HH tickets

[hallow garnet]

but yes if u wont even buy monthly pass

it's gonna be tougher

[glacial breach]

You can beat almost every map in the game currently with no 6* by just using guides - or if theres a 6* core to the strat, you can pick it out of support

[hallow garnet]

^

[willow nymph]

you can beat every map in the game using no 6*

[nocturne quarry]

I wouldn't say that.

Dolly need Mylnar

[willow nymph]

and no 5* too

no

[nocturne quarry]

Just get it from Support unit though

[tardy vigil]

so I can use support in every content of the game?

lul

[nocturne quarry]

Ye

[willow nymph]

pull up arkrec.com and you can look up how to beat any map

using 4* only

[hallow garnet]

yes but you wont unlock auto repeat if u clear with support

thats the only drawback

[tardy vigil]

ono

[hallow garnet]

but for just clearing's sake you can do anything with support

[glacial breach]

Yeah just not when auto farming

[tardy vigil]

literally unplayable unless auto

[hallow garnet]

well for the farming stage just set it up without support

[willow nymph]

farming maps are a joke

anyway

[glacial breach]

Member back when annihilations didnt have skip tickets

[hallow garnet]

yikes

[glacial breach]

[hallow garnet]

one day we will get autorepeat

and a later day we will get sweep for regular stages

still dont understand why that's not a thing

[glacial breach]

I want auto repeat, but atm I just have a mini window of the emulator in a corner on my monitor while doing something else

[willow nymph]

ok you're gonna laugh but

autorepeat is a thing in cn

💀

1 qol update a year

[nocturne quarry]

QoL update team is just 1 dude

[tardy vigil]

its fine I cant struggle after rerolling

[nocturne quarry]

Haven't got her yet?

[glacial breach]

Think buying an account in this stage of the games lifespan would have been smarter

[hallow garnet]

heck yea

[nocturne quarry]

I only rerolled 3 time for Dusk so shouldn't be that bad

[hallow garnet]

just go to epic and buy one

but there are people who take joy in goin thru the beginner experience

and the early stages

[glacial breach]

That is definitely true

[nocturne quarry]

A fun thing is getting revenge on early stages/events

[glacial breach]

I had the most fun with this game first starting out

And struggling

[tardy vigil]

ez

second pack

[glacial breach]

[willow nymph]

ak accs are like giga cheap

[tardy vigil]

lowkey dont like her splash art much - but ingame model looks great

[willow nymph]

there's a free skin for her

[tardy vigil]

wher

[willow nymph]

that you're gonna struggle getting

[tardy vigil]

is it in some event

that requires giga buff team

that gonna expire in a week

[willow nymph]

no it's not gonna expire ever

atleast

[tardy vigil]

if I can get it in half a year I dont mind at all

freeee

[willow nymph]

but it does require a lot of operators built to have the funniest experience

[glacial breach]

Isnt it a skin in IS4

[tardy vigil]

[willow nymph]

otherwise it's kinda crap

yes

[glacial breach]

Yeah no expiry then

Can still earn the phantom skin in is2

[tardy vigil]

do any banners share pity

[willow nymph]

yes

except for limited banners and limited collabs

that have their own pity

[tardy vigil]

I got a second one

3 pulls later

should I care for 5*?

[glacial breach]

Some of them are really good

[tardy vigil]

or rather for 4*

[glacial breach]

But alot of 4* can carry hard

And are easier to raise

[tardy vigil]

or I will get most of 4*

anyway

[glacial breach]

Requiring less mats

[tardy vigil]

is anyone here op

of 4*

[nocturne quarry]

It's a Permanent Rougelike mode
