Arknights

[hot rampart]

pick which one is hotter for u

both works fine

then cutter and lappland can focus on the main enemies

[tardy vigil]

I'm not sure if it would change things as aoe casters did me dirty

Since Typhon targets heaviest

[hot rampart]

cutter and lappland should get rid of them fast so they dont build up

and overrun u

[vagrant tusk]

wow not bad
Probably 2nd highest in this channel?

in terms of Orundums

[hot rampart]

theres another guy but he not active in this channel much

[vagrant tusk]

oh

[hot rampart]

he does 1-7 farm

[vagrant tusk]

hell

[hot rampart]

but orundum wise last time i saw him at 300k

[vagrant tusk]

which player is this?

cos I'm new here

[hot rampart]

@devout zenith how is ur stash

[hot rampart]

that fits

[vagrant tusk]

That's some based tips

[wanton stratus]

For some reason I remembered this being way higher so I thought I was 3rd, but I’m probably 2nd, yeah @vagrant tusk

[hot rampart]

no u are still 3rd

[wanton stratus]

Who is guilty?

[hot rampart]

just scroll up abit

[wanton stratus]

It’s Aiur innit

Wait, it isn’t

I’m losing my mind

[wanton stratus]

I’m trying to figure out who the second most orundum-rich person in the channel is

I’m stumped

[mossy tinsel]

Obviously me.

[fluid verge]

Depends on what u mean

In terms of spending?

Or just savings

[wanton stratus]

Maybe one day li’l buddy

[mossy tinsel]

Spending of course.

[wanton stratus]

No, amount of orundum

In this specific case

[mossy tinsel]

I know, I was being a goof.

[fluid verge]

Not me

[wanton stratus]

Goober moment

[mossy tinsel]

At least I have Weedy tho, she's almost ready of getting S2M3.

[fluid verge]

Probably have way more if I didn't e6 a whole bunch of limited ops

[wanton stratus]

How would not E2ing operators make your stash bigger?

[fluid verge]

hsr lingo, I meant p6

[wanton stratus]

Oh wait

Yeah I saw ‘e’ as the first letter and assumed it meant e2

Shadowverse moment

[fluid verge]

I've actually been pretty lucky nabbing the first copy of a limited unit

It's just the p6 part that's draining

[wanton stratus]

You really push it, huh

Sounds rough

[hot rampart]

@wanton stratus

[wanton stratus]

My brother in christ

I know gato is the richest

I love Shu

[hot rampart]

ah

thats where the confusion is

u dk the first guy

[mossy tinsel]

Weedy can push more harder now.

[hot rampart]

@wanton stratus

[wanton stratus]

Oh, right

I forgor

[mossy tinsel]

Now that makes both her S3 and S2 at M3.

[wanton stratus]

[versed compass]

its funny how this event is just enemies stacking def

ceobe event

[hot rampart]

ceobesweep

[versed compass]

each energy give enemy like +20% def boost with an extra bonus at max stack
enemy defender on max stack goes to like 5k def

gets 3 shot by ceobe

only issue is ceobe might focus vents on s2

[tardy vigil]

no shit it takes ages for me to kill it

[versed compass]

it have low res so arts kill

or over charge it with machines and wait them to lose stacks

once done they have no def/res and their hp is weak anyway

[willow nymph]

Mousse is super good this event

[hot rampart]

https://vxtwitter.com/secondfuton/status/1771228236648702437?t=o74B8vAMssP7sLkzUn2Zfw&s=19

#ebensweeep

[vagrant tusk]

wow seems like Ceobe is still useful
Sadly got no Ceobe yet

[willow nymph]

Got buffed really hard by mod

And enemies this event have 3 bajillion def

[versed compass]

ceobe is best op to scale vs def post mod

even if enemy go something like 5k def 90 res ceobe would be best dps or something if am not mistaken

this event have like 5k def 0 res

[willow nymph]

that's withholding all the inconveniences of ceobe

like standard caster range
ST
low burst compared to eben s3
very long rotation

[versed compass]

ya she mostly used as a niche anti def like this event

instead of general caster

reedic is the general caster now

why is a medic doing casters job

[tardy vigil]

for anyone playing on emulator

is there any way to tweak graphics?

[hot rampart]

theres in game setting for like frame locking 30/60 fps but i have no clue for emulator wise

i play AK on pc using google play games beta and its the smoothest i ever experienced compare to emulators

they are barebones feature wise tho

[tardy vigil]

It's an ingame setting so exists inside emulator

I think my monitor is a bit different from phones tho

[hot rampart]

for sure

[quaint arch]

From /r0sanitymemes

Not so much of a spoiler, but who knows?

[willow nymph]

ak runs on 30fps no matter what anyway

gameplay wise

it's only graphics that are at 60

[quaint arch]

https://youtu.be/oExfGGQDjp8?si=jfTaDok7WnOwvM7x
EBENSWEEPERS at it again.

[wanton stratus]

AK used to run at 60 fps for me though? Or am I stupid

[ebon sphinx]

there's an in game setting to have it run at 60 fps

[hallow garnet]

tf proccing all those things at once so fast

[quaint arch]

It's called Pause Trick

An Advanced Trick

[willow nymph]

Yeah and it's just graphic setting

The ingame clock stays at 30 fps

[ebon sphinx]

I think the reason for that is that messing with the in game clock can lead to...flaky autos

and it's already a bit unreliable as it is

[tardy vigil]

the reason is company is greedy and dont want to dedicate resources to make a proper 60 fps game

probably the reason being "its a mobile only game, 90% of them have potato phones anyway and another 9 do not care"

• big part of gameplay are

• base
• pulling
• book
• thinking about operators

[ebon sphinx]

greedy implies that its cutting corners when its a feature that should have been in. But its not

[hot rampart]

its a mobile chibi game

dont see it as being greedy

said resources can be used on something else instead

the fact that theres a 60 fps graphics setting is enough

this is the first time i heard about 30 frames in game clock thing but even so having frame lock is better for game optimization

[ebon sphinx]

now if Endfield wasnt proper 60 FPS then perhaps you have more room to complain...

oh it seems to be 60 FPS

[tardy vigil]

In my opinion this feature should be there

[hot rampart]

yeah its called the 60 fps in the graphic setting

[tribal thicket]

Missed a login day cos of Dogma

[quaint arch]

Should've not play that then

You're not playing that on PC, right?

[tribal thicket]

PC

[quaint arch]

Did it all go smoothly?

[hot rampart]

if he forgor about login in ak so probably

[wanton stratus]

Dogma 2 kinda sus

2 dollars to customize your character after character creation is completed

And always online even if you play single player

[hot rampart]

nah the mtx is actually nonsense

typical capcom selling basic resources u get ingame just by playing

the real issue is not having a new game option

and performance issue

and yes even that character edit thing is obtainable in game

[ebon sphinx]

the MTX part shouldnt be there to begin with, but on the other hand people are also overblowing it out of proportion since absolutely everything except 1(old DD1 sounds) are perfectly attainable in game at cheap or reasonable rates

this sadly drowns out the legitimate concerns around optimization

[hot rampart]

the mtx shouldnt be there for every single crapcom game releases ever since dmc fucking 5

[ebon sphinx]

some theorize some suit demanded for it to be there, they obliged by making it the most useless MTX ever

[hot rampart]

but i really love the gaming community using it as a scapegoat and spreading misinformation about how crucial the mtx are at affecting the gameplay

and drown the actual problem of yet another AAA slop game launching with the shit optimization shit ever

ouh and the very lack of save slots + option to start a new game

👏

[wanton stratus]

Capcom won

[strong rampart]

The Resident Evil remakes have no mtx

But yeah I think microtransactions in general are the stupidest idea to ever grace modern gaming

[hot rampart]

sure bud

[strong rampart]

That’s DLC

[hot rampart]

blud

its the same thing for dragons dogma 2

"dlc"

[strong rampart]

None of that shit is in the game

[hot rampart]

u can only pay once

blud

dragons dogma mtx is also not in game

by that definition

cuz its all on steam page

where everyone who doesnt buy the game can see

👏

[strong rampart]

Microtransactions are like

Buying loot boxes

[hot rampart]

tene

find

fine

by that definition

[strong rampart]

[hot rampart]

dragons dogma 2 has no mtx

[strong rampart]

Or in-game currencies

The only items in that list I’d classify as microtransaction are the weapon upgrade tickets

The rest is dlc

[hot rampart]

wowie "no mtx" huh

[strong rampart]

Quit being a smartass. Like I said, none of those buy options are in the game itself & I would not have known the option to buy those tickets existed until you posted the steam page ss

time to whale

[hot rampart]

the irony is that u tried to be a smartass

"uhhh re remake dont have mtx"

[strong rampart]

What?

I was stating something I thought to be true. There was no attitude or “I’m so smort” feeling behind it

I’m sorry if I gave that impression

[hot rampart]

thats what u think

i dont want to be a smart ass either ☝️ 🤓

[strong rampart]

…

[violet vortex]

Do you guys not just take the definition literally

Micro transaction
Micro
Small transaction(s) made after purchasing something
Small enough of a price that someone can justify purchasing it
With the goal of numerous small purchases that lead to a lot of money spent unintentionally

They all usually fall under this anyways

The specifics of the content that they put behind it is more a question of quality than definition

I can assure you the publishers would consider the definition literally when demanding that they exist in a game

[hot rampart]

im just lowering my definition to whatever tene tries to define it

i know what micro and transaction is

[tough matrix]

wrong jessicat

[versed compass]

this is something

[hot rampart]

damn look at mr temp recruit here

Same.

[ebon sphinx]

if I get this right, essentially the bank caught one of the biggest karmic paybacks possible

[hot rampart]

not really

cash stolen is specifically some loan from blacksteel

[mossy tinsel]

So they stole Blacksteel money?

[hot rampart]

its government money but blacksteel is the one responsible sending it i think

the bank manager and president being treated harshly during the heist was great tho

[mossy tinsel]

Well regardless, Blacksteel doesn't give a damn about that heist anyways.

[hot rampart]

yep

[mossy tinsel]

Agreed. I savored that moment.

I like how Cliff just says no to Jessica's resignation and still treats her as a Blacksteel employee.

[hot rampart]

being in the "frontline" might come in handy in the future

[mossy tinsel]

Would've been funny if Cliff stunned Woodrow and teleport behind him in the story.

Because mixing game mechanics into story scenes is amusing to me.

[hot rampart]

just assume woody can also do the same thing and both did it

that standoff just to shoot each other's hat is amusing

[mossy tinsel]

They both shot, stunned, teleported each other.

"You might have shot me Woody, but I have a second phase that gives me invulnerability for a few seconds!"

[tardy vigil]

ngl cv-7 feels unbeatable

this "low star clears" guy uses weird operators that I dont wanna to e1

I just hope those tiles arent hard to farm otherwise

[willow nymph]

just activate the rays to get free damage

[civic linden]

raising some of the 3* can be very beneficial for hte roguelike modes if that makes you feel any better

units like spot,beagle,cardigan,fang and orchid were even used in a roguelike cn tournament that happened recently i think

[willow nymph]

Spot cardigan kroos steward are staple 3* that are just great

Cheap good at their job

[violet vortex]

https://youtu.be/Mn_FBiUr0kQ?si=q7j-QLAvPI3Z6Hju

[wanton stratus]

My god

4* only wasn’t enough for him

[tardy vigil]

wow, why?

do they get extra benefits?

if those guys are part of "endgame meta" then it certainly makes me feel better about rising them

usually in my gatcha experience low star = you have 5/6* do same but better

[wanton stratus]

I don’t think you fully understand how astronomical of a difference in resources spent there is to raise a 3* vs any higher rarity

[tardy vigil]

I do understand

[wanton stratus]

It’s a drop in the ocean

[tardy vigil]

But 3* is limited to e1 lvl 45

[wanton stratus]

https://tenor.com/view/do-it-what-are-you-waiting-for-determined-angry-gif-5247874

[tardy vigil]

I can bring up 6* to same shit

[wanton stratus]

It’s E1 lv55 actually

[tardy vigil]

And 6* has 80lvl

[wanton stratus]

There are so many 6* which only show their worth at E2, at the same E1 and level almost all 3* blow them out of the water

[tardy vigil]

Ok but 4*

Surely they are mostly just better

[wanton stratus]

Sure, but significantly more expensive

[tardy vigil]

Yea 4* e1 doesn't cost shit

Few runs at chip stage

Not like I have stam to do it

F2p have allegedly 56 stam left after cleaning the event shop

[versed compass]

take note those calcs dont account for level ups

which newer players have

unlike us oldies

[tardy vigil]

yea but

its just 500-600 stam

[versed compass]

thats 2 day of sanity

theres also some worthless mats in the shop like furniture parts and the module stuff (except module block

those 2 to be exact are super worthless

[tardy vigil]

Why they are worthless?

I thought they are needed to upgrade skills

[versed compass]

those are module upgrade mats that you can get from a mode called SSS later on

but you need module blocks too which is way more limited then those and dont drop in SSS except in first clear rewords

so you end up with too much of them

unuseable

cause module blocks just says no

[tardy vigil]

And where you get those?

If they are truly bottlenecked then 450 sanity saved

[versed compass]

red cert (4 max a month)/1 from weekly quests/ events shop (so buy it in this event shop)/first clear in SSS/monthly in IS

[tardy vigil]

AK emote

[versed compass]

we have a few here

[tardy vigil]

Who is it

[versed compass]

frostleaf

[tardy vigil]

It's been here forever

[versed compass]

probably one of the most garbage ops in the game

[tardy vigil]

AK shadow council

[civic linden]

in roguelike mode to recruit ops you need to spend a resource called "hope" 6* cost 6 but 2* / 3* cost 0 hope to recruit so they are very good to save up hope or even serve as meathshield for random debuffs that happens in roguelike

[versed compass]

ya i go 3* + 6* comps often in IS

[tardy vigil]

You buy your units?

No hopes no bitches

[versed compass]

yes pretty much

[civic linden]

yeah you get a random class voucher every stage

[versed compass]

you get tickets for battleing and build up a squad

[civic linden]

spot is especially good cause sometime the game doesn't give medic voucher

so some emergency healing for defender is good

[tardy vigil]

I thought to bear with beagle and jessicat

Beagle so high def

And Jess

[versed compass]

example this is my most recent win in it
ops hired are left at e1 max until you get another ticket and upgrade them with more hope cost (they will use your account stats tho so need to be e2ed in account to benefit from e2 stuff)

the ops with blue thingy over them are (temporary ops) those come for free hope randomly and are maxed (still need to be upgraded)
the one with red is special op only playable in IS

[tardy vigil]

Half your shit is red

[versed compass]

on top i mean

the bottom just mean i upgraded the op

to be exact this is the IS exclusive op

[civic linden]

some 3* even appear at the top of usage rate in roguelike mode

[wanton stratus]

Gotta get around to building my Spot

I haven’t yet because furry and also I don’t play IS

But one day

[hot rampart]

hope u have his skin to make him less ugly

[wanton stratus]

I guess I forgot that I leveled him up. Idk why his skill is SL1 though

[tardy vigil]

This whole game is furry

[wanton stratus]

That’s crazy

[mossy tinsel]

Isn't that the whole point of Arknights? Cute anime furries tower defense gacha game.

[hot rampart]

that depends if u wanna call nekomimi a furry or not

[mossy tinsel]

A furry to me is having an animal face like Spot or Mountain.

Having only animal ears and animal tails doesn't make them a furry.

[versed compass]

most of ak is not furry then

[hot rampart]

the last furry released is Lee which is like

almost

3 years ago

[willow nymph]

Luo and Terra research commission

[nocturne quarry]

Objection

If this ain't a furry cat, I dunno what is

[hot rampart]

you wouldnt do a cat

and 3 cats

[wanton stratus]

Okay, but 3 cats in a trench coat though?

[wanton stratus]

[tardy vigil]

I tried cv-7

Nothing works

Guess I need to farm exp sticks at stage 4

Why amiya s2 an autocast

[hot rampart]

stick with s1

[sharp tartan]

S1 is better

[tardy vigil]

But s1 does jack shit

S2 gives 230% dmg over the duration

[quaint arch]

100 SP Cost for a 25 Sec Skill

Are you sure?

[civic linden]

You need to time s2 well for it to be worth it

[tardy vigil]

I didn't notice that nuance

[civic linden]

https://youtu.be/WfDfdGbpKjo?si=MwHb-YkmywCuX7av

[willow nymph]

S2 amiya is outright better than s1 at e2

E1 the uptime is dubious so stick to s1

[mossy tinsel]

Damn, you need full potential on all those 4* operators.
I only have half of them at full potential.

[willow nymph]

It's not a run you should do

Lots of indigo rng

[mossy tinsel]

I know, it just looked fun.

[violet vortex]

Just level them past level 1

Problem solved

Make them e1 lvl20 or something

[wanton stratus]

Hmmm

Shitknights is more my style than low lv clears

Dr Silvergun far surpasses my power level

[vagrant tusk]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aVrejKFt59U

yea....all his low stars clear

I usually watch Oyuki guides though

But yes, these next few months are rough.

[vagrant tusk]

Yea
Farm some Orundum after acquired the desired items from event shop

[vagrant tusk]

Gonna get my Degenbrecher goat momma as well 🤤

[wanton stratus]

either i get out of this broken or dead
Me waking up every day

[versed compass]

theres tons of upcoming power creep after virt banner

degen/ray/shu/zuo/ela

[wanton stratus]

So many ops, so few pulls

Kind of regretting going for Typhon ngl

[hot rampart]

degen and ela is main powercreep and ease of use

shu is unique but her healing do be crazy

[hot rampart]

typhon pretty strong herself tho

[willow nymph]

Shu is strong as hell
Checkpoint is broken and so is wide ranged super strong heals with lasting shelter

[wanton stratus]

Yes, but why choose strong when broken is an option?

[hot rampart]

yeah i would say that is true for
degen, shu, ela

[wanton stratus]

That’s at least 4, since I have to get Virtuosa out of FOMO

And possibly Ray because… I want her ig

Depending on how things turn out I might skip the non-limiteds and just sacc them in spooks later

[hot rampart]

and 1.5 month after r6s banner it be 5th anni limited

[wanton stratus]

Man

What NPCs are up for becoming an anni operator at this point?

Talulah, right

I saw people talking about Ulpianus and Logos

[hot rampart]

ulpianus no

5th anni is likely to be chapter 14

no clue who will be the operator

my money on Walter cuz it be so perfect with ines(ch12) > hoederer (ch13) > W (ch14)

[fluid verge]

tal tal plz come home and ascend to the throne as the rightful heir of britannia

siege alter is just a meme at this point

[hot rampart]

nuhh tall is only when AK is at the brink of eos

[fluid verge]

they'll never fix siege

[hot rampart]

its the emergency

[quaint arch]

What Siege?

Rainbow 6: Siege?

Like this one? @fluid verge

[versed compass]

her non unique parts kinda power creep saria

as in healing + supportive abilitis

sure saria s3 is there but i feel shu out right get used over saria most of time

[hot rampart]

her s3 can keep up with surtr and overkill in that regards right

[versed compass]

s3 hps is just massive

i think its stronger then blemis without condition

[wanton stratus]

I’m sorry, but I don’t think her “parts” powercreep Saria’s at all

[hot rampart]

blemibros....

[versed compass]

we still have the sleep cope

blemi out dps others vs sleeped enemies

[wanton stratus]

It’s a shame that stun immunity = sleep immunity these days

But also great for smoothbrains like me who don’t know how to stall

[tardy vigil]

this video failed to explain to me why I should care about any of those operators

I guess rainbow 6 is cool

[hot rampart]

its just basic information of telling the operator kits

ouh wait

its not even that

that vid just saying those banners are limited

[tribal thicket]

Limited means they will never get rate-up rerun... and if you suddenly feel the hots for a limited in the next 2 years, you gotta shell out 300pulls to pity pull them.

Instead of like 60-80 pulls for them if they are on banner.

[tardy vigil]

wdym 60-80 pulls?

[hot rampart]

this true for usual limited banners

[tribal thicket]

They rerun Ash tho, thank goodness

[hot rampart]

but collabs limited only needs 120 pulls for hard pity

[tardy vigil]

isnt stnadard rate 150 + next 6* guaranteed featured aka 200

[hot rampart]

thats the hard pity

[tardy vigil]

sure, rainbow siege pog

[hot rampart]

soft pity are

50+++

kicking in

[tardy vigil]

but every other banner are just bunch of words to me

[hot rampart]

on average u should get a 6* around 60 pulls

just from soft pity

[tribal thicket]

Gonna pump my pulls for waifutoria and pity spalter

[tardy vigil]

I believe in half cases you get a 6* after 35 pulls

[tribal thicket]

Saved for a year

[hot rampart]

i mean being an average

unlucky

[tardy vigil]

there are a lot of averages

[hot rampart]

for real such is gacha

[tardy vigil]

just be careful to not go from average to mid

[hot rampart]

i have a friend on a spree of his average pulling a 6* in 10-30 pulls

i want to kill him so much

for the past

5 banners

[tardy vigil]

me

[hot rampart]

lock ur door

[tardy vigil]

true for 100% banners

[tribal thicket]

Its called beginners luck

They be takin that away after you got 10 6*s

https://tenor.com/view/amitabh-bachchan-big-b-bachan-silsila-holi-hai-gif-19672326

[tardy vigil]

(its true for 1 banner because other ones were guaranteed)

[hot rampart]

on another end of the spectrum a friend has been the shittiest luck possible by constantly rolling 100+ and doesnt even get em

[ebon sphinx]

you mean 100+ but no featured op?

[vagrant tusk]

Still need another 320k

[tardy vigil]

I DID IT

1 HP practice

Spot is much better against big dudes then beagle

Her armor doesn't do shit against big hit compared to his 20% dodge

[hot rampart]

wait spot has dodge???

[hot rampart]

holy shit

[tardy vigil]

I love how I don't see any attack crit but I see a defense crit

I guess there is a stun chance on attacks

Aka another defensive crit

[hot rampart]

gummy

[tardy vigil]

Imagine you play moba, buy 1k damage item, walk to the opponent and think "I gonna kill them in 3 hits" but they have

• 30% chance to stun you
• 20% chance to dodge an attack
• block 500 damage when you land a hit
• for each your attempt to hit they get healed 200 hp

1k DPS gets reduced to 280 average with 200 healed back

Or a boss in MMO

[tardy vigil]

Ghhh I'm so close to ***

I can smell it

[versed compass]

i can be the good guy for once

[tardy vigil]

Unbelievable

Around 60 attempts

[versed compass]

we still can cope love from second sight

[tardy vigil]

and auto replicates my pixel perfect timings

I'm so glad I have jessicat and can just skip lava

[tardy vigil]

so I almost did the shop

should I continue grinding stages because they are still best farming I get?

,y story is around chapter 3

[hot rampart]

yep

she told us not to touch her furniture
first option is to ignore what she asked us to do and her furniture go angry cause we ignored her

second is simply waiting for her to come back

Damn, this is tough.

[hot rampart]

u have typhon its easy

or are u trying to do the medal requirement?

PSA : u dont need the vent to last hit cliff
u just need to kill cliff while he is being damaged by the vent

this is prime ifrit lane btw

[tired gulch]

Now this is VERY good to know

Because I wanna get the Trimmed Medal

[hot rampart]

good luck

[tired gulch]

Right

[tired gulch]

I made it!

[hot rampart]

bros.. this cant be it..

[quaint arch]

What happened?

Wait...

No internet connection?

[fallow cedar]

Happened to me too

GUess its just a common bug right now

[wanton stratus]

It’s an EN exclusive bug

[versed compass]

free stuff for the bug please

[hot rampart]

200 orundum

[versed compass]

ok i actually thought its just visual stuff

holy shit this is big

now am unsure should i readd people or wait

i actually lost some players i had more then people here in friend list

[quaint arch]

Wao

[wanton stratus]

The interesting thing is that friends’ support units still showed up in the support unit list like an hour ago, but they don’t appear anymore

So the friends were still there somehow despite not being visible in the list

[versed compass]

i will wait a day or 2

before readding

[wanton stratus]

We boutta miss out on 300 friend credits

This is so sad

[versed compass]

i just dont want to lose those guys i had 4 years ago

kinda attached

[wanton stratus]

Same

Otherwise I want 300 pulls as compensation

[versed compass]

theres also someone with chinese or japenese name with good support units

[versed compass]

tho i dont miss your ines

[wanton stratus]

Wdym, S3 is great

[versed compass]

not even max level

ok they reacted

[quaint arch]

Who's they?

[hot rampart]

https://fxtwitter.com/ArknightsEN/status/1772949908753989770?t=d4Zh6TMjFnlEcX_NtlT2Pw&s=19

[versed compass]

we never had a game breaking bug like this before right?

[hot rampart]

hmm yeah idts

[versed compass]

the only weird bug i recall is that stage that had no tiles visable

[hot rampart]

theres lesser bugs than this like

firewatch not properly on rate up in mostima banner,

jp and kr having access to crystallize byproduct even before their release

both got 10 pull for it too

[wanton stratus]

Bro, global always gets shafted

It’s a law

[wanton stratus]

Welp, they extended the maintenance. Pretty sure my sanity is going to cap now

[versed compass]

i think mine is on like 90

so i should be fine

[wanton stratus]

For some reason, when I saw the glitch I didn’t immediately think “oh, there’s gonna be an emergency maintenance so I better spend my sanity quickly”, so I just took my sweet time clearing CV-EX-2

I have brain damage

[tardy vigil]

When is it

[wanton stratus]

2 hours and 17 minutes from now

[tardy vigil]

So now is 5.44?

4.44

[wanton stratus]

Yes

[tardy vigil]

Ok nice

[wanton stratus]

Wait no

[tardy vigil]

Ngl this game makes me anxiously check and knowing I can't and shouldn't sounds relieving to me

[wanton stratus]

Now is 5:45

You’re right

1h 15m left

[hot rampart]

is this only a bug on EN?

[wanton stratus]

@hot rampart

[hot rampart]

wow extended maintenance i hope we got 10 pulls for this fr

[versed compass]

2 green exp cards

take it or leave it

[tardy vigil]

And 2 green skill cards

[versed compass]

alright everyone is back

i added this guy like when i started randomly and he have been there since then

also 500 orundum 50 sanity in mail

[versed compass]

i just killed cliff
with mly reflect

wait am supposed to beat both forms on beam

lmao

i missed up

[versed compass]

medal is harder then cm

[hot rampart]

u only need to kill him while he is beamed in both phase

no need for beam to last hit

[versed compass]

i know that

i did it on one phase

without noticing the trim

[tardy vigil]

Where

[fluid verge]

10 pull comp doko

[tardy vigil]

Did I really get no orundum because I didn't try to login during original maintenance time?

[hot rampart]

check that 50 sanity

its in there with it

[tardy vigil]

Hidden treasure

[versed compass]

500 orundum is almost a 6*

[vagrant tusk]

wow lucky EN players

[versed compass]

what happened to people

who added others

before fix

[wanton stratus]

I wonder as well

Lemme know if you find out

[versed compass]

seems like they lose some of old friends

[versed compass]

saw someone saying they added a bunch before patch so only handful returned

[mossy tinsel]

Does anyone have an E2 Lvl 90 Ifrit?

[fluid verge]

What skill

[mossy tinsel]

S2

[fluid verge]

Done

[mossy tinsel]

Thanks!

[wanton stratus]

Damn, that’s sad. I was worried that might happen, so I’m glad I didn’t add anyone else during the time the bug was occurring

[wanton stratus]

Thankfully I didn’t lose a single friend

[versed compass]

tbh wanted to risk adding 1 to lose that weird e2 60 s3m3 ines

[wanton stratus]

Hey man

When you see an E2 lv60 the obvious first thought is “there’s a smart player, putting their operators at an optimal level”

Also, I can switch is out to S2sl7 if you insist…

[versed compass]

i play IS

i dont care about whats set up

i care whats mastered

jess and typhon players are pretty nice tho

seeing m6 often

[wanton stratus]

You’re welcome

At least my Typhon is M6 Mod3 Lv60

Wait, hold up

Ines hasn’t been up for 3 weeks

[hot rampart]

i forgot whats on my supp

[quaint arch]

I still remember mine

[hot rampart]

ouh its spuria, W, executor(without module)

[quaint arch]

TACHANKA, Blitz, and EBENSWEEP

[fluid verge]

This guy too poor to go lvl 90 is my thought

[wanton stratus]

Yeah, but you have terminal whale brain though

[fluid verge]

Nah its called peak performance

[wanton stratus]

Excuter no mod is crazy

[hot rampart]

yea forgot to put it up on supp

[willow nymph]

i mean it's not like it's your whole roster

do people a favor and put 90s on supp

tyvm

[wanton stratus]

Nah

Personally I think lv60 is fine for supports, as long the skill is M3

There’s this one crazy guy on my friend list with a lv90 Mod3 S3sl7 Sexas though

[ebon sphinx]

60 is my go to level since you can unlock modules

[wanton stratus]

Nice and pragmatic, just the way i like it

[versed compass]

i think i only put non maxed units if someone asked me to put one

maxed as in level/mastery
not pots/module

[versed compass]

what does that mean in term of op predection

[hot rampart]

new character could be anybody from babel/rhodes island/related to theresa

this applies to the sidestory

anniversary is ch14 and could be any story related characters

[versed compass]

wow we going back to anniversary chaps?

or maybe its cause this one the end of this arc

[hot rampart]

ch7 was an anniversary

ch 14 which is 7*2

be anniversary too it all makes sense fr

im expecting victoria arc to end at ch 15 tho

[versed compass]

was not chap 8 also anniv

or half anniv

[hot rampart]

half anniv

that was rosmontis and mudrock banner but they werent anni

[versed compass]

we counting it anyway

[hot rampart]

tru

[versed compass]

9 10 11 12 13 were all normal banners

maybe 14 anni and 15 half anni to finish the arc

[hot rampart]

yeah that sounds fine

[versed compass]

amiya gonna become a flag vg at the end of it

that support art dps

[hot rampart]

she gonna be a 6* caster and be the best caster in the game fr fr

[versed compass]

thats not even a high par, even a medic beat it

thats a new one

[willow nymph]

please make amiya a real class

thanks

like geek

[quaint arch]

Geek is just a geek

[hot rampart]

geek isnt bad

only spuria is

[willow nymph]

Yeah it works with the self harm of amiya too

Just unhinged hp loss from limit break

[tardy vigil]

Self harm seems sus

[willow nymph]

well her arts aren't exactly good for her health

[spark oasis]

Arts Geek would be funny.

Doubt they'd ever do anything like that though, they seem to be afraid of making Arts DPS good.

[tardy vigil]

how do you balance arts dps

with arts res units?

so typhon and jessicat just shred them?

[quaint arch]

Jessicat
Shred

What?

[hot rampart]

yeah when an enemy has high res they tend to have lower def so u use physical dps

except theres a bunch of defense debuffer in the game to even invalidate high def enemies
this isnt true for arts dps as res debuffer is harder to use and most are on 6*

[quaint arch]

Ifrit kek

Pramanix kek

What else?

[hot rampart]

eyja s2

sexas s2

[tardy vigil]

https://tenor.com/view/flirty-gif-25165916

[tardy vigil]

Yes

[willow nymph]

HAZE

[hot rampart]

HAZE

[willow nymph]

also freeze has a flat -15 res

so all ops that freeze are technically res debuffer

[hot rampart]

leonhardt has too actually

% tho

[tardy vigil]

isnt res a % anyway?

[hot rampart]

correct

but %res debuff is not a flat substraction

its basically just taking off -15% of specific res

[tardy vigil]

what is res of a regular enemy

100?

[hot rampart]

-15% against 50 res is just (50-7.5)

check enemy info

[tardy vigil]

or 0?

[tardy vigil]

on external sites?

[hot rampart]

0

[tardy vigil]

nah

[tardy vigil]

so 15% is bad

[hot rampart]

0 to 100

u are confusing me

[tardy vigil]

15% is less then 15 flat

[spark oasis]

Percentage RES reduction is bad, yes.

Most enemies rarely have more than 40.

So 10% of that is basically nothing.

[tardy vigil]

its aint nothing

[wanton stratus]

@versed compass If you, or anyone else here for that matter, can convince me that Ines S2 is a good skill there’s a high chance I’ll M3 it

[hot rampart]

its literally her best skil

[wanton stratus]

[hot rampart]

bigger range 25 sp cooldown decent damage steal attackspeed print dp fast if theres a tanky enemy

[wanton stratus]

But S3 tho

[hot rampart]

the bigger range alone just means her effective talent range becomes way better

[wanton stratus]

Moar atk

[spark oasis]

Ines' S3 is janky fun.

[hot rampart]

do "too much" dmg

[wanton stratus]

Or do you think S2 is the superior helidrop skill as well?

[hot rampart]

yes it still is

the range alone makes it way easier to use and lets her be deployed safely, more flexible

just wait 5 second or just bring a bagpipe for insta if too smoothbrain to wait 5 sec

[versed compass]

its litirally does everything you want her to do

damage/range expend/abusing sword talent/dp gen

and it work with redeploy too or be static

[hot rampart]

yep

[wanton stratus]

So is S3 just bad, then?

[hot rampart]

no

s2 is just better and does everything u want from her

[tardy vigil]

if enemy has 35 res then 15% res decrease results in 8% more damage

[versed compass]

i thought ines was 90% s2 10% s3
but i was wrong
it is 99% s2 1% the other 2 skills

[hot rampart]

0.01% of s1

[versed compass]

i heard CC with -90% sp regen made people use s1

[wanton stratus]

Sunk cost fallacy keeping me tethered to S3

[hot rampart]

u mastery her s3?

[wanton stratus]

Yes

[hot rampart]

(its not bad

[spark oasis]

Check your math.
It's 5.25%

[versed compass]

yours is e2 60 anywya am not gonna borrow over e2 90 friends i have

[hot rampart]

s2 range is just

so comfy

s3 sometimes u want her to be deployed on enemy just so u can hit it with the dagger

kinda jank

u only need to kill while he being damaged by the vent

Yeah, I read that here earlier

Gotta even out some kinks with my strat

Turns out having Lin on S1 bottom right to turbocharge the vents is kind of a meme

[hot rampart]

lol

[versed compass]

it charge faster with fast hitters

gravel double hit is actually used now

But it’s cool that her unique mechanic is coming in handy

Oh, so that’s why her S3 is so good for charging the vents

[willow nymph]

Use ethan s1 to charge vents

[tardy vigil]

why e2 mats require me to beat story 9

u can jump to chapter 9 if u finish chapter 3
