Arknights

[willow nymph]

also gives a lot of atk and some aspd

and hp

[versed compass]

for SA it give him bunch of attack scales

[willow nymph]

yeah SA just get massive damage buff and slightly faster redeploy

[versed compass]

Silver Ass
HP +330 | ATK +70
Gain 10% > 20% | 25% ATK, when attacking Elite or Boss enemies, further increase ATK to 110% | 115%
All operators' redeployment time -10%, SA and allies within 8 surrounding tiles additionally reduce 10% redeployment time

fucking

i think its sl7 too

[willow nymph]

I mean
Survivors Contract
Integrated shawl

weirder if she couldn't

[versed compass]

i wonder if she gonna be used into cresson conisdering her low hit speed

[willow nymph]

i mean she works but like the problem of cresson isn't cresson

[versed compass]

i guess you can just let her mob

since she gonna nuke those anyway

[willow nymph]

i think she doesn't cover every wave

and emergency drones tank her ass

gonna need some atk buff to kill them in one s3

[versed compass]

wait

she can summon away

do she prio tiles around her

[willow nymph]

yeah

if tiles are locked around

she doesn't even lose damage

[ebon sphinx]

oh is this a "cant hit air" showcase

wait...

[fluid verge]

now we just need surtr to hit air

[hot rampart]

blue woman era is over

[versed compass]

blue women when red women enter the chat

[fluid verge]

what red women, we roach now

Where is my SKREEEE emote

[quaint arch]

Integrated Shawl
Nah, Walter White 2nd Talent is in Action there

Camo

[quaint arch]

I thought you meant Fincatcher Shawl when you said Integrated

[willow nymph]

No i meant she has a shawl integrated in her kit

[quaint arch]

Illiterate I am

As a SV Players indeed

[hot rampart]

many such cases

[bleak mirage]

[ebon sphinx]

Then she opened her eyes.
She pointed her finger at her antlers, and asked the operator if she could help her out.
It was only then that the operator noticed that her colleague, who had been motionless the whole time like a statue in a museum, had actually gotten her antlers caught in the grapevines and was unable to free herself.
She quickly grabbed a pair of pruning shears, and carefully cut the vines for Viviana. After the brief commotion, Viviana was freed.``` dork

[versed compass]

living with those is hard

[ebon sphinx]

they even have their own nightcaps if you look at her sleeping

[wanton stratus]

If I was Viviana I’d have my antlers cut off and mounted on the wall

[bleak mirage]

Vivi is something else

[hot rampart]

ok ines

[violet vortex]

Her having antlers is due to an unnatural amount of testosterone in her system

Normally, she would not have them

[hot rampart]

in arknight case it turns her gay

[bleak mirage]

So many horn females to look at

[violet vortex]

I don’t think that’s the horns

That’s just every arknights character

Don’t know how the population hasn’t collapsed yet

[ebon sphinx]

[versed compass]

she said she forgot

[hot rampart]

CN playerbase used to associate AK anniversary for her birthday

[ebon sphinx]

makes sense

[hot rampart]

now the fact that she got the wisdale name

the same day

[violet vortex]

Is is4’s 4th ending soon?

[ebon sphinx]

theres a line from Civlight Eterna noting that Amiya still looks so thin and questioning how shouldnt she be taller

Amiya confirmed still fun sized even at 16-17 years old

[hot rampart]

not soon

[violet vortex]

Tragic

It’ll be awhile before I’m playing again so if it’s in a handful of months out from now then maybe it’ll lineup

[versed compass]

i think its in 3~ months

[violet vortex]

That’s good for me then

Haven’t played is4 much but I want to check out 4th ending when it comes around

[ebon sphinx]

oh Logos is training room core...

[hot rampart]

irene but for casters and supporters

[ebon sphinx]

https://vxtwitter.com/AkGoingPIaces/status/1785679118388122091?t=IeBRTQJHwTg6fwgo1ggzlA&s=19 that's amazing AND hilarious

[hot rampart]

balancing
i need to find whoever is in charge of any shit operator design and kill him

[versed compass]

(hey boss i think irene base skill will always be the strongest in training room what we do?)

(easy create another one)

[versed compass]

logos is not even the biggest offender in the banner

[hot rampart]

uhh im not finding the people behind logos and W

or any strong operator

they cook good

but who i need to find is whoever behind quartz, warmy s2, spuria

[versed compass]

tbh idc what they cook

[violet vortex]

The game has powercrept a lot in recent times

[versed compass]

as long as its not chalter ugly am fine

[hot rampart]

gacha will have powercreep but it really took them until mlynar to make it obvious

double down with sexas and yato after

W being broken is not the first of a kind

[versed compass]

everything after virt is like hyper powercreep

[hot rampart]

not like it matters

casuals and newcomers will have access to this stronger operators and make their life easier

[versed compass]

degen is irene + chen + 20 other shit
ray is schwars direct powercreep
shu is powercreeping every medic defender but saria s3
zuo lee have his own nonsense
ela is the real marksman
Wisadel powercreep the game it self

ascalon powercreep manticore hard but 6 vs 5 so its normal even by year 1 standards

[hot rampart]

so whats the issue

[versed compass]

oh am just listing the powercreep

[hot rampart]

thats fine

[versed compass]

its like if i listed SV powercreeps over the year

[hot rampart]

good thing AK isnt a pvp game

[versed compass]

not that i hate it but i wont act like it dont exist

[hot rampart]

i wouldnt act like it dont exist

[versed compass]

some people still cope old units vs new units

[hot rampart]

thats on them for living in the past

[versed compass]

i still remmeber all the SA copers vs mlynar

BLUD IS READING AINT NO WAY

[mossy tinsel]

Isn't Flametail just gimmicky with her high dodge?

[hot rampart]

yeah they are gimmicky

u can use them just fine

but theres nothing to talk about em

[quaint arch]

Vanguard Gaming H8-4

[mossy tinsel]

The fact that Flametail has armor on 1 ear, but not the other is kinda strange and amusing.

[quaint arch]

[versed compass]

why is nervousness part of joy music

[tribal thicket]

Because whenever you feel joy, you feel anxiety and nervousness because you're not supposed to be feeling joy, and now you're scared you missed out on something you're supposed to do.

[versed compass]

[tardy vigil]

so spending 70 pulls on virtuosa was a mistake?

It's fine I got basssss

Seems like I actually need him, those drummers do hella arts dmg and I'm tired of seeing auto failing

[ebon sphinx]

excitement?

[versed compass]

ya but the case here felt like fear with bassline

[hot rampart]

do u know the

that stock soundtrack that plays when shark is about to come out

[violet vortex]

Mistake in what way? If you’re pulling strictly for power use the knowledge of 6 whole months worth of foresight

[tardy vigil]

no I pull for waifu

just a shame that I cant get a guarantee this patch, therefore it feels lackluster

[tribal thicket]

$$

[tardy vigil]

vivi would be ok if she used her candles a little bit in her kit

[tardy vigil]

arknights extracted more money from me then any videogame ever

[tribal thicket]

The gacha odds have no power over money

[tardy vigil]

and I've played this game for what, 5-6 weeks?

[tribal thicket]

Good, they deserve some money.

[tardy vigil]

I dont have 15 millions gajillions dollars to go for 300 pity

costs are what? 20$ for 10 pull? (after all deals exhausted)

30$ for Lin is acceptable since I know what I pay for at least

[tribal thicket]

6 star selector ticket with 10pull is gucci

Pick a Mlynar and never suffer again

[tardy vigil]

kinda despise paying for lever pulls

[tardy vigil]

already got Lin

great unit, does everything I expected from her and even more

s1 turns her into a permanent aoe caster, not blast but real aoe with +atk% and slow - with ability to go back tanking on demand

and s2 looks as really juicy stall even tho it is hard to make use for

[tribal thicket]

I actually really like Lin

S1 does a lot, and S3 kills most everything

And she can reach up to 1k+ def and nullify any attack below 300 dmg.

[tardy vigil]

So 1300 phys or go home archer

I am stuck on e1 because red plantation is closed until Thursday

Thursday aka 2pm Friday local time, aka 2 hours until end of work week

[tired gulch]

I'm absolutely confused by today's pulls.

I got Blemishine in my free pull and Mulberry in a 10

[quaint arch]

Illegal
You can't Heal Reaper Guard, so no SP should've been given

[tardy vigil]

is this some IS thing where units restore sp on heal?

[tardy vigil]

Kama is built different

[civic linden]

Artifact that everytime a ground unit with offensive/defensive recoveries get healed they give sp to surrounding allies

[tardy vigil]

[hot rampart]

the way relics work is that anybody who got healed also gives 1 sp to surrounding 8 tiles

so he is getting sp battery from 2 sp dogs

beside him

[quaint arch]

Still, the drones heal them despite full HP

That's Illegal

[hot rampart]

doesnt inherently matter due to how the "count as healing" works

as long as u see green numbers on top of their head

they are getting healed

[ebon sphinx]

it's the meme

realistically she's probably late 20s or 30~

[tough matrix]

remember the "EN can't read meme"? that's her

[willow nymph]

she actually knows how to read now badly

[hot rampart]

yeah the vid here says something like

W: ...I spent 20 years of my life as a wandering vagrant,
yet I returned to this same place at the end,
because I was saved by a pair of hands that pulled me out of that dark.... dark....

Amiya: 'Prison'

W: Yeah yeah, 'Prison'.
From this day forth, our souls shall never rekindle to wield weapons -something something- of vengeance ever again.

Hoederer: Its "Weapons engulfed by the flames of vengeance".
This is already the 3rd take.

W: Tch. Must I really read this script? Who the hell will understand what you write?

Ines: If you cant read it, then just give up.
No one will be surprised by a speech from an illiterate barbarian anyway.

W: Sure. Sure. Sure... surprise eh?

"Bang."

Well then, i'll give them all a nice shock.

you can try mocking Walter that her literacy level is comparable to Kay-chan, an adolescent wild dog

[hot rampart]

im sure ceobe is more literate than W

she can read "Ceobe" on one of her weapon handle

that I borrowed chalter to beat mandragora

[quaint arch]

[tardy vigil]

I am no way going back to ch9

It was a nightmare, Typhon did 0 damage to that Mandragora

Not 0, but far from enough to win before she kills everyone

[willow nymph]

she need to be downed by pillars to lose the damage reduction

in phase 2

also pillars do a fuckton to her

[tardy vigil]

And problem was not only Mandragora but 5 biggest dudes

ouh whats the chance of endfield news in the next few days

the ark carnival in CN has some endfield stuff

[versed compass]

50%

[hot rampart]

https://fxtwitter.com/bento_oreo/status/1785827319405490457?t=3CGmXJ-ml2xkJ7PnKMR7-w&s=19

[versed compass]

either it happen or it dont

[hot rampart]

[willow nymph]

This moment when hg has too much ad space

[tardy vigil]

#endministrator

[ebon sphinx]

they booked the entire venue space for their thing

[ebon sphinx]

being a high ranked non Sankta is literally suffering as Fia shows

since all the Sankta are quirky weirdos who never miss a chance to have some fun

[civic linden]

I hope endfield makes the arknights ip more popular in western mainstream

Tho idk if anime factorio is gonna have that wide of a reach

[hot rampart]

the combat is pretty simple in restrospect which...

i think will help the casuals normie settles in

but then the factorio part is what actually worry me most regarding this

[civic linden]

oooh

hear me out

what if

they make the gameplay loop feel more like stardew valley than factorio

now that has a wide reach

[hot rampart]

the big brain AK tower def players would hate the simpler ass genshin combat
but the factorio part is like not for them either ( count on how many AK players liked RA mode)

and then the normies will be like wow this combat is worse than genshin or something ( can be a good thing or not idk normie brain thing since its simpler) but then gets filtered by factorio

honestly speaking i just hope

its popular enough to keep itself afloat

doesnt have to be as big as mihoyo stuff

another more important thing is actually

good story and story presentation

since this is often always

what attract audience the most

and make players invested

into the story and giving em "i need to see more of this peak"

and swallow every dogshit gameplay, gacha elements

[willow nymph]

ra problem is mainly first impression sucked

ra2 is pretty neat

the fact it's permanent helps it a lot

[hot rampart]

first impression is very important and you CANNOT fuck that up whatsoever

[willow nymph]

also the monthly raids are funny

boom 250 spiders

[civic linden]

Hmm the 3d artstyle might also help with the first impressions

Cause arknight's 2d chibi style makes it look too much like a generic gacha game which gives pretty bad idea of how it is like from trailers and stuff

[hot rampart]

3d is also easier to be animated

see all the arknights 3d pv

its peak

then see yostar ak global 2d "animation" trailer slideshows

its still good but ngl

its really fucking short

with a lot of cuts

[tardy vigil]

Make 2 modes

• Factorio mode
• 3 in a row mode
  This way they can capture the widest audience without betraying AK fanbase

[hot rampart]

what is 3 in a row mode?

[willow nymph]

Itctactoe

[tardy vigil]

There is a natural place for both since genshin is medieval fantasy and endfield is post-apocalyptic sci-fi

[hot rampart]

deep inside i dont want endfield to be as giant as genshin/hsr

[hot rampart]

i dont like normie fanbase

[hot rampart]

what in the fresh

[tardy vigil]

The biggest gaming genre in the world

[hot rampart]

[hot rampart]

ok hold on u make me wonder

is there no candy crush but anime gacha

this sounds crazy if this aint a thing already

[tardy vigil]

There are

[civic linden]

need to tap into the grandpa audiences too

[tardy vigil]

There are candy crash + dress a girl
Candy crash + dating sim
Candy crash + turn-based jrpg combat

[tardy vigil]

Half of those grandpa's are in their 30s-40s

[willow nymph]

One of the oldest fanservice mobile game was a jp tile matcher

Donnt remember name

[hot rampart]

ooo

[tardy vigil]

Do you mean erotica candy crash?

Yea no shot this would live and prosper

[willow nymph]

Ye

Poster girl is a vig booba dark elf

[hot rampart]

[tardy vigil]

Genshin poster boy is twink

The government can cover it's eyes as long as hoyo brings export revenue

I hope endfield has enough sexy characters

[hot rampart]

i want W in endfield

an actual clone like ange

and then make her the opposite of crazy woman to confuse me

[tardy vigil]

Speaking of shit art like Typhon e0

[hot rampart]

ouh yeah u reminded me

typhon skin is up

[tardy vigil]

How to get this

[hot rampart]

is4

[willow nymph]

Play is4

[tardy vigil]

[hot rampart]

tham ngan

[tardy vigil]

Is it permanent?

[hot rampart]

yep

dw

[willow nymph]

Yep

[hot rampart]

not gonna lie

i lose alot at the start of is4 at fucking -1 diff

[tardy vigil]

Would be funny if I never get time to play is4

[hot rampart]

a lot of encounter battles straight up kills me

[willow nymph]

? Temp only

[hot rampart]

"nah id win"
later

[tardy vigil]

What is lane holding?

Is any tank lane holder?

[hot rampart]

hmm

lets say they hold the lane and killing enemies

at the same time

[tardy vigil]

So gummy isn't lane holder?

[hot rampart]

so they can keep blocking up coming enemies

yeah cuz she cant kill fast enough before next enemies comes in "so she doesnt hold lanes properly"

[tardy vigil]

Gummy can keep blocking upcoming enemies (I use DPS)

[hot rampart]

thats relying on another operator

laneholders are by themselve

most of the time with a medic

[willow nymph]

Theb she's just a defender

[hot rampart]

at least

[willow nymph]

Laneholders are bulky enough to hold lanes without a medic while killing the stuff in it

[tardy vigil]

So lane holding is for 'solo' side lane?

[willow nymph]

Most have sustain

[hot rampart]

good/better laneholders dont need medics*

[tardy vigil]

Is jessicat a lane holder?

[willow nymph]

Yeah

[hot rampart]

i would say so

[willow nymph]

Most maps she just tank no medics with clever shield use

Even if there's arts

[tardy vigil]

So if some big fuck walks down side lane this solo unit just dies?

[hot rampart]

yep

laneholders just meant for weak mobs lane most of the time

[willow nymph]

That's when you drop kirito

[tardy vigil]

Oh helidrop

I see

[willow nymph]

Or you have the modern laneholders that kill big fucks

Like fedex

[hot rampart]

[tardy vigil]

Vivi

[willow nymph]

No vivi sucks

[hot rampart]

vivi is so sad

[willow nymph]

She has the vulk

Not the Block or damage

*bulk

[hot rampart]

they want her to be some laneholder/ boss dueler hybrid

but then she is actually shittier at both

[willow nymph]

Why does s3 not go perma

[hot rampart]

its passable but when u compared to other 6* with said job

she doesnt come close

[willow nymph]

Vivi woild be super cool if it did

Or like make her hit more peeps in range atleast

[tardy vigil]

S2 gives +1 block and aoe hit

[hot rampart]

i think her issue is also just being 1 block off skill

[tardy vigil]

You are supposed to win on second activation?

[hot rampart]

her on skill is "okay"
but god she cant hold a lane at all offskill and mobs just pass her with her ass block 1

[tardy vigil]

They can fix the unit with a module later

[willow nymph]

No

Because what suck isbnt her talents

They are great

It's her skills

[hot rampart]

if she had block 2 u can cope with her offskill holding

"long" enough to activate her skill

[willow nymph]

Honestly just wanted s3 to go perma

[tardy vigil]

Module can give +1 block

[hot rampart]

have no clue what they cook

lords got good ones at least the 6*

[willow nymph]

Ok she's 2 block

[tardy vigil]

Module can do anything

[willow nymph]

Now her damage is still mid

[hot rampart]

just give the upgrade

-5res on attacks and stacks 4 times

on her talent

[tardy vigil]

Res is optional honestly

[hot rampart]

surtr has ignore res talent

[willow nymph]

Res is not really optional now

Like most arts dps 6* have it for a reason

There's lin carne qb that dont shred res

[tardy vigil]

She does double hits. Many units of such nature do "kill big HP that has lower resist to me but big other resist"

[willow nymph]

In 6* arts dealer

[tardy vigil]

(no one likes those units)

[willow nymph]

Double hit doesn't matter

Mid dps does

[hot rampart]

reed is the only outlier of an arts dps without res shred
(arts amps scales horribly against res)

[willow nymph]

Oh yeah reed

[hot rampart]

but she deals metron fuckton of arts dmg

so it doesnt matter

[tardy vigil]

Arts fragile is a dmg multiplier

[willow nymph]

But she has arts amp and -atk for it

[hot rampart]

[tardy vigil]

Double hit is a dmg multiplier

[willow nymph]

Also outrageous damage

[tardy vigil]

Problem is 70 res is atrocious without flat res decrease

[willow nymph]

Surtr gets +340% atk

[tardy vigil]

It is another dmg multiplier in final formula

[willow nymph]

No she just deals very high damage and shreds res

To 4 targets btw

[tardy vigil]

Shredding res op if enemy has high res

[willow nymph]

*shredding res op

Very few enemies have sub 20 res

[tardy vigil]

-20 res for 70 res enemy is equivalent to boosting your damage by 1.67

[willow nymph]

Yes

[civic linden]

I feel like comparing viviana to surtr is unfair

[tardy vigil]

Are there any supports who shred res?

[tardy vigil]

Isn't surtr = unplayable, we all know it

[civic linden]

Arts guards have always been kinda weird...surtr is literally the only meta one and she is only used for helidrop

[civic linden]

There is pramarix but if you wanna find res shred i woudn't say it's super worth it

[hot rampart]

its actually the fairest comparison tbf

they are literally the same archetype

do u wanna know what happens if they swapped place on their release date?

vivi would be called good

and then surtr comes and people say " damn she powercreeps vivi"

[civic linden]

Yeah thats the point, vivi isn't bad it's that surtr is busted as shit

[hot rampart]

i agree but

yeah whoever designed and "play tested" vivi should know how to make her good

with surtr as a baseline

like u want it strength to maybe near surtr

but no

its not even near

[civic linden]

I preffer viviana being bad than the game getting a 2nd surtr

[hot rampart]

disagree

also uh

theres already 2nd surtr

its called sexas

[willow nymph]

2nd surtr wouldnt even be busted

[hot rampart]

3rd surtr*

[willow nymph]

No i mean art duelist

Tex is much stronger than surtr anyway

[tardy vigil]

Ofc it isn't worth it, just buff typhoon

[willow nymph]

hits air

[tardy vigil]

Is air such a problem?

[willow nymph]

No its an old joke

[tardy vigil]

Ok boomer

[willow nymph]

Basically everyone here is one

[tardy vigil]

I'm not

[hallow garnet]

oh what is this about typhon powercrept?

walter killed her?

[hot rampart]

no

[hallow garnet]

oh

okay

so how strong is walter?

[hot rampart]

new mlynar

[hallow garnet]

wat

how is typhon not powercrept then

[hot rampart]

becuz she isnt the only specific one getting powercrept

[hallow garnet]

that wasnt the question

typhon IS powercrept

the real answer is that everybody is powercrept

[hot rampart]

im just saying the level of this powercreep is actually bigger

[hallow garnet]

yay

we really needed that

im sure

[hot rampart]

Waltuh stronger than chalter

[hallow garnet]

good

i hate chalter

[tardy vigil]

someone is unhappy new units are weaker then surtr

someone is unhappy new units are stronger then surtr

[hallow garnet]

i dont care about surtr

i barely use her

what i cared for is viviana being faithful to her boss design

but instead we got a cheap ass 6* astesia from 2020

and now my dreams of having an actual playable candle knight are gone

forever

[fluid verge]

Ez wait for alter

[tardy vigil]

yee thematically it is a terrible operator

[slate stratus]

just wait a module that fixes all her problems XDDDDDDDD

[ebon sphinx]

https://vxtwitter.com/wooperfuri/status/1786116604201427084?t=9MSulgirOibdgR_W1x0-Tw&s=19

[tardy vigil]

can module add candles?

[slate stratus]

if u squint hard enough

[tardy vigil]

give her skin with candle instead of sword

I mean

I dont have busted units and she looks tanky enough to not die to boss

or stand in front of defender to kill elites idk

but why her shield only blocks melee attack? dont some bosses love to do ranged attacks and skills right in your face?

[slate stratus]

if u try hard enough 3 stars are enough to beat the game

xDDD

[tardy vigil]

just borrow chalter🤡

and use 4 stars

and e2 aoe healer

u got walter?

too?

44 pulls in with nothing

[quaint arch]

You mean Mr. Nothing?

[fluid verge]

dont even got him

all i got was 2 fangs

[quaint arch]

Dang

Just get 16 more

It's not that hard, rite?

[fluid verge]

there is a soft pity right?

what number is that?

probably not? I have a ton of annihilations i never did

[quaint arch]

Starts from 51th Pull

[fluid verge]

ill mald the remaining annihilations this weekend

[violet vortex]

I doubt pure 3*s are enough

Pure 4*s are enough but they still have mechanics to utilize

[willow nymph]

pure 3*s don't do H maps

normal maps they do

[violet vortex]

So yeah not enough across the board

And plus that’d be really boring

[willow nymph]

I mean they aren't required for progress

[glacial breach]

Looking at Walter showcases this is the most bullshit unit ever

Taxes or chalter don't even compare

She can just solo DPS every map and kill bosses in 5 shots

Has camo, summons tank ranged damage and slows mobs

Huge range huge aoe

[violet vortex]

Give it a couple months to next anniversary for that crown to be taken

[glacial breach]

Insane powercreep

[violet vortex]

That’s just the direction game has been going last 6 months especially

After this it’s just a bunch of creep units

[glacial breach]

Chalter really was the harbinger of the end

And the trend has only been getting worse

[violet vortex]

Power level is getting extremely high for the average 6* coming out after this point

[glacial breach]

Walter can even shoot drones, eliminating the only real weakness her subclass is supposed to have

[quaint arch]

Lessing

You could just blur Lessing

[glacial breach]

Yeah degen and ray are super strong too

[violet vortex]

Lessing is to show after this point

[glacial breach]

Even uses ammo to not waste uptime

[quaint arch]

This is what happens when Fans want Walter (White) being a thing

[glacial breach]

https://tenor.com/view/aaronpaul-aaron-paul-cry-crying-gif-7621646

[quaint arch]

Hope them enjoy the Powercreep Fest

[violet vortex]

People will still struggle to clear stages with her while Silvergunn does it with 5 4*s so nothing will change

[quaint arch]

Medicmiya actually viable?

(Ngl, Big ahhh S1 Cost scared me out)

[willow nymph]

I mean s1 fucking sucks lmao

but atleast it lets her be an aoe medic when you don't want an incantation medic

[quaint arch]

wdym?

Still have to attack to heal, no?

[willow nymph]

she heals % of her atk every second

[quaint arch]

Oh wait....

[willow nymph]

instead of the damage amount

this is the real stuff

[quaint arch]

Can be used once

Has starting SP

[willow nymph]

matters for cc

[quaint arch]

When will HIPPO lift those restrictions

[willow nymph]

i think they're fine

amiya is like one of the strongest 5*

with said restrictions

I also count the stun from s2 caster and retreat from s3 caster

[quaint arch]

The Caster Mode is at finest

For me

Using S3 that is

[versed compass]

me on my way to enter tola encounter for the 75 time when i have no dps for them

[willow nymph]

Entering tola is the only choice

dies

that map is so bs at d15

[versed compass]

its die or leak tola and kill rest

sometimes kill all

my god this official anni artwork by ryuzakiichi is so good

Tola appears in IS4?

I thought he died in Near Light?

[hot rampart]

he didnt die in near light

maybe some freaks on bilibili do it

3* clears of ch 10 are nowhere found on youtube, less to say about ch 13

[quaint arch]

*don't mind to be spoiled

[hot rampart]

same thing yuwen

[quaint arch]

That wording sounds... Odd

[hot rampart]

its not if u read the sentence before that

dont open for ch14 spoiler
open only if u dont care to be spoiled

im sure u get it

dont open for ch14 spoiler
open only if u dont mind to be spoiled

[slate stratus]

Sorry

English bad

[hot rampart]

lol no im not even blaming u

its just im showing yuwen that u can definitely get it just from what u said already

no need to even make it specific semanthic

[slate stratus]

I kinda fixed it

[hot rampart]

i mean if u mention ch14 these people should know 100% that its said chapter spoiler

the only thing really mattered is the post it self being properly spoilered

[hallow garnet]

at fkin last

[quaint arch]

Reedic

[hallow garnet]

whats her mastery order

cuz guide says s2

but i thought s3 was her main thing

guess i underestimated s2

[quaint arch]

What you need?

More Explosions?

More Damage?

[hallow garnet]

idk i dont really need anything

i was told shes op and carries bloody is

so i need her for IS

mainly

if i am left to my own devices i'll probably just try to force everything with cheeto

and that doesnt work

[quaint arch]

Then just do whatever you want with your Reedic

[hallow garnet]

amsofdnsidnasfidasn

i'll m6 her anyway

it's just the ordering

[fluid verge]

https://www.reddit.com/r/arknights/comments/zxe143/reed_alter_has_the_highest_single_target_arts_dps/

[tardy vigil]

5 more min

I really should start working it's the last day to submit the report

And I have 2 hours left of that day

[hallow garnet]

alr s2 first then

[wanton stratus]

Are we certain that strategy 3 is never worth it?

[hallow garnet]

im juts doin M all the time

M stands for most orundum

[tardy vigil]

Done

[hot rampart]

s2 has insane dps that the very effort of sandwiching enemy between 2 of ur operator is very2 worth it

[hallow garnet]

pogpog

[hot rampart]

VERY2 insane dps and total dmg

[hallow garnet]

so s2 is her better skill

s3 just flashier

or like trash room clear

[hot rampart]

s3 is flashier and better for mobs(70% of the game)

[hallow garnet]

okay now

sell me arturia pls

[hot rampart]

s3

[hallow garnet]

i did it alrdy

and i dont see what the fuss is about

i expected more dmg

[hot rampart]

elemental dmg that none of the enemies in the game has any resist to

[hallow garnet]

ah okay so it will be more impressive vs chonky stuff?

sicne trash has no resists really anyway

i did her s1m1 too for the extra charge

cause i liked the skill icon

[wanton stratus]

[hot rampart]

damage reduction on some bosses shenanigans doesnt affect the damage cuz they are strictly arts and physical dmg reduction

[wanton stratus]

Based

[hot rampart]

say like current boss for ch 13

its like another source of true dmg until HG start introducing more future enemies with elemental resist which is not yet as of now

[hallow garnet]

current boss

ah

vamp boy?

[quaint arch]

Yes

[hot rampart]

vamp boy

[hallow garnet]

i mlynared him

and hag ate the rest

okay so what im hearing

arturia is a kinky way to get thru res

which is kinda pointless cuz i can melt basically anything already anyway

and her dmg isnt too impressive on regular stuff

[quaint arch]

I wonder if you use the Chapter 13 Explosives

[hallow garnet]

da what

oh

[quaint arch]

Against the Vamps

[hallow garnet]

the payload thigns?

[quaint arch]

Yes

[hallow garnet]

yea ofc

thats how i got to phase 2 boss

but i did it too early the first time

and he stomped me

so i just waited the next time around

cuz hes harmless in phase 1

so just kill everything else

let him respawn over and over

and once everything else is ded

i blew up his thing

then mlynar chomped him down

[quaint arch]

Not even using the Payload again?

[hallow garnet]

nah

or

i dont remember

but he destroyed the payloads

it wasnt a hard fight tbh

[quaint arch]

Ahh...

I thought you'd go "Ooga Booga" and ignore the phase 2 gimmicks

[hallow garnet]

i kinda did

but he kept spawning the small shits

that dilute mlynar

so thats where the payload came in

heck maybe i used two

i really dont remember

[quaint arch]

It's alright

[hallow garnet]

i was just throwing stuff at him and it worked

thats how i usually clear stuff

and it's why i hate stupid shit

that needs timing trigger

like the music shit

or figuring out boxes

and whatnot

gimme a kill lane and lemme rain fire

[quaint arch]

Nevermind, you have "Ooga Booga" Mindset

Sort of

[hallow garnet]

i do

lol

[quaint arch]

[hallow garnet]

definitely

there was a ch13 stage

with a perfect ifrit fia lane

and i couldnt decide

so i just put both

on top of each other

im a really simple man

see enemy press button pray damage is enuff

probably thats why reedic seemed weird to me at first glance with s2

cuz it's not an obvious oogabooga button

but now i understand that it is

just needs a dummy to carry her s2

[quaint arch]

No Explosions = No Ooga Booga

[hallow garnet]

wait actually

can she put s2 on mont3r?

[tardy vigil]

Im surprised people dont play arhuria s2 with aoe

*long range aoe

[hallow garnet]

i read that her s2 is not used at all

[bleak mirage]

I wanted siege alter.

Shining alter

Instead I got Another w

Womp womp

[bleak mirage]

I do

[quaint arch]

Another W
That word can be mistaken

[bleak mirage]

Yeah not from me

Cause I literally said it when she was announced

Another w? Another limited one

Why

So I’ll reiterate it

Again if need be. Not really happy about it

[quaint arch]

Where were you when the Livestream was going?

If anything, I'm sadge no Primal Caster

[quaint arch]

HIPPO wanna go with a "BANG!" on Both Sides

[bleak mirage]

Asleep?I’m in the military base currently brother. I got classes to pass

[tidal hawk]

Primal Caster on next MH collab, trust

[bleak mirage]

Not worried about a stream right now

[tidal hawk]

Or maybe during dungeon meshi collab with Marceille

[quaint arch]

[bleak mirage]

Yeah

Thats what I’ve been doing. Learning

good thing about ideograms is you can use pattern recognition for them

and it's super good to get parts of meaning without knowing shit

[tardy vigil]

Good thing about learning chinese characters is that their verbs don't do funny like in Russian or German

To think about it, gachas aren't that scary in monetization if compared to high end titles and how much their dlc cost

(unless you got a gambling addiction)

Phantom liberty is 30$
