[hot rampart]

duh

shes fun tho

viability wise is literally useless

[tardy vigil]

[hot rampart]

for general use stage she is just a stunbot

[violet vortex]

Literally useless is a pretty wild claim for a character that does afk stun aoe damage

[glacial breach]

She was decent for a year 1 character

But was never meta

Had some fringe CC use tho

[violet vortex]

I still use her occasionally as an afk unit I don’t see the problem

[bleak mirage]

Game is about using whatever to solve solutions after all

*Necrosis Damage

Also, I don't really pay attention to using the Buff part of S3

Don't Sleep on S1 tho

[quaint arch]

AoE True Damage
Nuh-uh, Elemental Damage is still Elemental Damage

It's just that HIPPO didn't bother to add Elemental Damage Resistance to the enemies yet

[quaint arch]

Not even Yatoman?

I wonder how the community will comment when Surtr gets Mod ∆ (like EBENSWEEP & Logos) but it's Burn Damage instead

[hot rampart]

yeah they want for tutu to hit global first
once the profit is maximized ( people are convinced elemental dmg is le true damage cuz HG didnt bother to actually add elemental resist enemies yet )

in the near future events for CN u will start see some enemies with em

[civic linden]

Isn't the new kjerag event boss resistent to elemental damage? I remember hearing something like that...

[hallow garnet]

okay? i never use suzu s3 either

so

maybe thats why

only in like super high end cc shit where i have to make a death tile and cram a million buffs+mlynar+surtr+typhon and shit onto that big ass meat

honestly if anything her s1 seems to add more

cuz at least diff class cheaper caster thing?

idk

if i look at this from an IS standpoint

cuz for general gameplay shes nowhere interesting enough

for me to force her into my comps

nor do i have any attachment to her like i do to certain underappreciated units

her s2 also seems more interesting with stuff like cheeto

[civic linden]

Arturia is cool for me cause of more 'no auto attack' members

sorry i just really like that meme

[violet vortex]

She’s good just not anything crazy

A fairly normal outcome for a character mildly spoiled by future characters being strong

With Degen coming out next it just looks a lot worse

This is a positive for me since I don’t like how Vir looks

Walter isn’t changing that

[bleak mirage]

Some people just need em

Even with all the diversity their roster provides

[hot rampart]

gacha audience when the game has complicated gameplay

[willow nymph]

Ak gen content really isnt hard

You can absolutely bust it with shit units

[hot rampart]

instead of pick 4 out of ur roster
focus on that 4

then gacha introduce different elements so u cant stick to the same 4 character u invested for artificial difficulty padding idk

[hot rampart]

to u maybe

[willow nymph]

Wow i feel like youre shitting on hoyo games

[hot rampart]

its funny like ofc im focusing on moyoyo

but i can apply it to gbf

fgo

blue archive

then they introduce soem "support" characters behind the firing line

to supposedly increase squad size

its like babysitting u what this character does

this gachas can still be fun in their own right but like most of the "thinking" is before the battle even start where the only hard thing to do is team building

while executing them is just take ur time when its ur turn

just not for me i think

[civic linden]

Yeah i really wish star rail at least had a block button or like a "pass turn" button

2 buttons is so boring

[hot rampart]

due to its simplicity it helps gaining and retaining players

all they need to focus on is presentation of their story to make it look cool as fuck so the weeb audience eat it up

[civic linden]

I mean i don't have any problems if you like mihoyo games it just ain't for me

[hot rampart]

thats the thing i dont

[civic linden]

Oh i didn't mean it for you especifically just in general

[hot rampart]

i dont like turn based (unless its a card game) cuz they play like shittiest version of chess where my decision is between attacking enemy x or y or z

then some characters has aoe attacks so u just attack one enemy

at this point inside my head i just know how the battle ends before it even begin

[willow nymph]

You never played a good turn based rpg

[hot rampart]

true actually

[civic linden]

I kinda wanna try that new games they're making but as soon as i saw : 90 pulls for garanteed, 0.2% for 5*, weapon banner and artifact system 3.0 i legit went like "fuck it's mihoyo" and my expectations went waaay down

[willow nymph]

Go play chrono trigger or bravely default

[civic linden]

I really wish mihoyo was more gentle with the gacha (and completely removed every ounce of code about the relics/ artifacts)

Their games would be so much better imo

[hot rampart]

but that means printing less money

[wanton stratus]

It also means less players for better games

[willow nymph]

Why would they

It wouldnt make their game more lucrative

[wanton stratus]

someone has to be the paragon of shitty gachas

Thank god it’s mihoyo

[willow nymph]

I mean fgo ups them on rates
Gbf on grind

[hot rampart]

its shitty gacha but most popular one currently

[hallow garnet]

so you wish hoyo would intentionally lose billions?

[willow nymph]

Theres plenty of worse shit

[civic linden]

I know i know i don't expect them to do anything like that

[willow nymph]

In gacha world

[hallow garnet]

no company would do that

[hot rampart]

honestly yeah

i wish that happens

[wanton stratus]

Yes

[civic linden]

Just venting

[hallow garnet]

i mean sure i wish that too, i phrased it wrong

[willow nymph]

Hoyo is just #1 gachas in west world

[hallow garnet]

maybe wuwa will be decent and hoyo will get their shit together

no coincidence they timed the new abyss mode to wuwa release

[willow nymph]

Master coper

Lmao

[hallow garnet]

[hot rampart]

mihoyo tapped into the whale territory of mobile market like subway surfer and candy crush did

[civic linden]

Wuwa?

[hallow garnet]

wuthering waves

[civic linden]

Oh

[hot rampart]

wuwa has uh

worrying to me

its upside is it looks like genshin

but thats also a downside

[wanton stratus]

[hot rampart]

cuz u know it has no identity

[hallow garnet]

wdym no identity

just cuz it shares the same genre as genshin?

[hot rampart]

its trailing on this "we just wanna make genshin but better"

[hallow garnet]

it's like sayin X mmo has no identity cuz looks like wow

kek

[hot rampart]

but if they cant deliver in this front its just be tower of flop

[hot rampart]

thats a different case

[hallow garnet]

wuwa has a very different focus than genshin

[hot rampart]

i legit cannot say this

[hallow garnet]

is it?

[hot rampart]

to wuwa

like

i shit u not it looks like genshin

[hallow garnet]

cause there are no other games that combine open world with gacha

[hot rampart]

from UI, Maps,

[hallow garnet]

maybe ToF ig

it's the same damn genre bro

[hot rampart]

i know its the same genre but make it look different

💀

[hallow garnet]

i dont think it looks the same

it has a very different feel

and graphic style

to me at least

the ui isnt the same either

[hot rampart]

u cappin if the UI doesnt look the same

its just slightly differenr coat of paint

[hallow garnet]

it has a mobile game ui

kek

genshin did not invent that

[hot rampart]

yeah ik mobile UI do be standardized shit and copy it for every similae type of application actually

UI UX is my passion

[hallow garnet]

like u dont really have much room

in this sense

i think wuwa did good to make themselves different from genshin by having the focus shift

but you can only go so far

and still be the same genre

then again i dont care about these

all i care about is gameplay

[hot rampart]

i think my expectations are just too high

[hallow garnet]

they are lol

[hot rampart]

in a sense that

[hallow garnet]

look at this way

[hot rampart]

PGR did look different than honkai

[hallow garnet]

i can 100% guarantee you that wuwa to kuro is what genshin is to hoyo

[hot rampart]

but wuwa and genshin doesnt have this same gap of different

[hallow garnet]

cashcow attempt to fund their actual favorite game

being hi3/pgr

[hot rampart]

i just wish they make like

[hallow garnet]

kuro fumbled it with pgr cause they dont make enough money. they went too generous on the gacha and they are paying for it now

[hot rampart]

pgr but open world u know (maybe thats their goal)

in the artstyle, art direction

so far it looks closer to genshin than pgr

[hallow garnet]

erm

[hot rampart]

aside from some enemy boss looking rad as fuck

[hallow garnet]

you cant make a fantasy rpg

and make it look like pgr

which is post-apocalyptic cybord world

[hot rampart]

this is so sad how true this is actually

[hallow garnet]

well im milking their generosity hard

so im not complaining

also them not making enough money ensures they never get greedy

and they always release good quality stuff

[wanton stratus]

“Oh no, the company wasn’t predatory enough towards the end users”

[hot rampart]

this is just what i mean by identity

i dont want genshin fantasy i want pgr fantasy

[hot rampart]

yeah u can definitely see by their profit amount

actually lemme see this seems out of my ass

i just wanna check direct comparison between pgr and honkai (honkai definitely boosted by genshin and star rail playerbasr abit)

[hallow garnet]

okay so if they go fantasy which is similar to genshin they dont have identity but if they copy pgr's world they do? make this make sense pls

you can legit NEVER find any new ideas in terms of overall theme for a world anymore

cuz everything has been done already

[hot rampart]

its not copying another different company

[hallow garnet]

THEY ARE NOT COPYING JESUS

[hot rampart]

its just copying from the same company

[hallow garnet]

pgr included a lot of modern elements

in their designs

and wuwa did too

but combined it with fantasy

the soundwave thing

the random robots

it does have a tech feel to it

[hot rampart]

i can see that but its still leaning towards classical fantasy

[hallow garnet]

so?

it's a popular ass genre

way more popular than what pgr is offering

[wanton stratus]

[hallow garnet]

just bc you hate genshin or really wish wuwa to be completely opposite to genshin it doesnt mean it doesnt have an identity

in the end kuro NEEDS to make money

they really do

so they will gravitate towards that

while trying to make meaningful combat and endgame

[hot rampart]

yeah thats a seperate discussion than

[hallow garnet]

what you wish for

is cyberpunk but gacha

[hot rampart]

yes

[hallow garnet]

thats never gonna sell bro

it's a western thing

[hot rampart]

the game named cyberpunk :

[hallow garnet]

totally different audience

this theme isnt popular with cn

and their main target is cn

[hot rampart]

hear this

genshin successful cuz its try to pull different audiencr than the normal gacha shits

[hallow garnet]

genshin is successful cause they made a genre that didnt exist before AND they did this during covid when everybody had millions of time on their hands

[wanton stratus]

The Chinese audience doesn’t like the fictional setting of an industrialized hellscape because it hits too close to home

[hallow garnet]

nobody can ever replicate that

not in the same genre at least

[hot rampart]

covid buff is one thing

[hallow garnet]

covid buff and new genre buff

[hot rampart]

open world is a new genre?

[hallow garnet]

pulling in non-gacha players with botw copy

[hot rampart]

thats an insult to botw

[hallow garnet]

open world GACHA is a new genre

[tardy vigil]

Have you ever heard of go?

[hallow garnet]

with this level of rng added

[hot rampart]

i wouldnt count "insert known genre here" but gacha as a new genre

[hallow garnet]

it kind of is tho

botw didnt revolve around team combat

[hot rampart]

yes i prefer them over the turn based gachas i see actually

[civic linden]

it did introduce the gacha mechanics to most people

[hallow garnet]

and the feel of fomo

[tardy vigil]

My point was: go has simple af rules and still is more complicated then chess

[hot rampart]

does it?

[hallow garnet]

also hsr is a trash ass game with super good character designs (except space cn women who all looked the same)

and it's also a cashcow

[tardy vigil]

Wdym "does it"

[hallow garnet]

he questions your statement

😄

[hot rampart]

hold on im mistake go with something else

[tardy vigil]

What part of the statement

[hot rampart]

i fucking thought it was another black and white circle thing board

yeah my thought wasnt that

i dont even know how that thing plays

[tardy vigil]

You place a stone on the board

Taking turns

If you encircle you convert their whole group to your color

[hot rampart]

shit im stupid

[tardy vigil]

Win is to have more your stones when the game ends

[hot rampart]

u know my first thought was "huh Go yeah i know them"
inside the brain : checkers imagery being thought as Go

[tardy vigil]

[hot rampart]

[tardy vigil]

In go computers couldn't beat humans as of 2015

Dunno if it's done already

[hot rampart]

my only exposition of Go is just hunter x hunter ant arc

[tardy vigil]

I played it in math summer school

[wanton stratus]

Wait what

Is go like reversi/othello

[tardy vigil]

?

[wanton stratus]

Or whatever it’s called

[tardy vigil]

Go is an ancient Chinese game

Never heard of othello

[wanton stratus]

What’s the board game with wood piece with different names

Not chess

[tardy vigil]

Checkers?

[wanton stratus]

No, like the individual pieces have names just like chess

[tardy vigil]

Well, not in go

In go you have just a pile of rocks

Nameless pieces to get encircled and vanish for your entertainment

[wanton stratus]

[hot rampart]

i love the arknights discussion we just had

[tardy vigil]

You had hsr discussion

[hot rampart]

nuh uh

[wanton stratus]

I was thinking of shogi @tardy vigil

[tardy vigil]

I heavily disagree

[tardy vigil]

Idk what it is but looks complicated

[hot rampart]

wait

[tardy vigil]

[hot rampart]

holy mandela

the hunter x hunter i mentioned isnt even Go

its shogi

[wanton stratus]

Ikr, that’s what I thought

I was confused tho

So I wasn’t sure

[tardy vigil]

Ofc Japanese anime would play japanese game

They don't have tradition of go

[hot rampart]

some of em seems to have knowledge of go

[tardy vigil]

But it isn't widespread enough to include it in anime imo

[hot rampart]

man i wish i remember that artist name
they made a meme with go

and arknight

[tardy vigil]

They mostly write about something relatable

[wanton stratus]

I remember that one

[hot rampart]

tru

[wanton stratus]

It was great

[hot rampart]

ok help me remember that

it had ursus fart, andoain playing against each other

[wanton stratus]

I can’t remember the artist either

[hot rampart]

do u remember the date of trial navigators with andoain, brap man and talulah

aight i found the artist name

doesnt look like go actually

idk

[wanton stratus]

It’s reversi/othello

[hot rampart]

(disregard the fact that these two is bullshitting how it plays)

[wanton stratus]

Go is 19x19 square grid

Othello/reversi is 8x8

[hot rampart]

[wanton stratus]

Well, to be specific; in othello you start with 2 black and 2 white piece in the middle of the board like in the animation, and in reverse it starts empty

So it’s othello

[hot rampart]

oooo

[tardy vigil]

Go plays on intersection of grids

this one is on centers

and yes, 8x8 board

smallest go board is 9x9
go figure why

[hot rampart]

hah go figure

Or you fully learned game in English and just play it in cn for years?

i memorized everything

also

my cn acc is only 2 months older

no sorry i meant 2 months younger than my global acc

im tired

What to buy...

A mid skin of a beloved unit or a great skin of average unit

[wanton stratus]

Literally can’t tell which one is which

[tardy vigil]

Apparently elemental dmg sucks

[wanton stratus]

What are you on about, m8?

[tardy vigil]

Fragile doesn't buff elemental dmg, compared to true dmg

Oh

Thank goodness

[quaint arch]

Classic illiteracy of SV Player

[tardy vigil]

The damage from necrosis damage fallout is fixed, and also of the “elemental” type. The fallout from burn damage deals arts damage though

So it can be amplified

[quaint arch]

[tardy vigil]

Who applies burn dmg?

[wanton stratus]

CN operators

[tardy vigil]

NUH UH

[tardy vigil]

She looks kinda cute, I wonder when her banner comes

[tardy vigil]

5* aren't real

[quaint arch]

Nah, look at early 5*

[wanton stratus]

Perhaps I confused it with the enemy version, which deals arts dmg to friendly operators

[quaint arch]

Some of them are still to date

[tardy vigil]

This creature is a cute-looking skeleton tho, I admit

[tardy vigil]

Wowoweee is2 has 6* specialist token

IS#3 take on Casters be like:

Pre Expansion II: Enemies (and Bosses alike) have quite a RES and more HP the higher the Difficulty
Post Expansion II: So here's a collectibles that'll make Casters actually great if the stars align

[tardy vigil]

Vivi is a protagonist in the last story

So she is clearly changed

[hot rampart]

basically W too to some extent

mudrock was an antagonist in suzuran event but she was showed to not have any sort of "evil" motive and just wanted a place to stay for the moment but got dragged into the town's problem

[tardy vigil]

Good thing we killed both skullshatterers

[hot rampart]

skullshatterers are so bad with their motivation

SHADOBA IN MY GACHA CHANNEL WHICH IS IN SHADOBA SERVER?

[mossy tinsel]

Weedy plays SV with doktah sometimes.

[hot rampart]

i hope shadoba 2 isnt a flop

[mossy tinsel]

Well, we have multiple game modes that are not card related.

[tardy vigil]

cant go wrong with fishing

and SV art

SV closed down not because it flopped, but because it is old for this day and age

it wasnt built to last ages

and thats why they dont change core values of the game, only doing side polish

(new graphics still look old to me, japan is truly stagnating)

[mossy tinsel]

The leader animations look sick though.

[versed compass]

we making a team of (enemies)

[fluid verge]

hear me out

eblana and reed are twins and we fought eblana before

they has the same genes

[wanton stratus]

By that logic both Ch’en and Chalter would fit in the squad

[fluid verge]

they not boss enemies

which is what useless is trying to make

[wanton stratus]

Jesse

Who is Ch’en the sister of?

[fluid verge]

talulah is her half sister, same mom different dad iirc?

[ebon sphinx]

yes

[tough matrix]

maybe I'm misunderstanding, but I like how you think that the child of a thief will become a thief as well

(they probably will)

[fluid verge]

if u wanna stretch, dusk can fit since in her event, shes fairly antagonistic

and her paintings attack you

[tough matrix]

pretty sure the one that we fought on Ling's event is chongyue, right?

so chongyue also counts

[wanton stratus]

She was also technically in a boss stage in her event, although she couldn’t be attacked

Good call

[fluid verge]

did we fight chongyue?

all i remember is Ya

[tough matrix]

the big dragon that shoot lasers

[fluid verge]

oh that boss

iirc thats what will happen if all the sui sibligns combine back together to become the god thingy

[wanton stratus]

He’s right that it looks like Chongus tho

Same colour scheme and tail ornament

[tough matrix]

oh, I thought it was chongyue, because they have the same color scheme

yeah

[fluid verge]

nah thats someone different

the upcoming cn IS has

||kalstit as a boss||

[tough matrix]

I guess she also count

and ||theresa||

imagine if the next would be ||amiyi||

[fluid verge]

i wanna see a bardnight only comp

[tough matrix]

I wonder if inspiration effect from other operator can affect the others

because bardnight would do zero damage, except if you use skalter's s3

I see

[tough matrix]

free operator on degenbrecher's event

[quaint arch]

IS#3 Hand Relic

[versed compass]

oh dont have to be boss enemies

can be non bosses like doro and vivi

[hot rampart]

thats sui

illusion of sui

chong being the eldest is likely why he looks closest to sui

in terms of color

[versed compass]

i was considering boss knight for a while

might do an IS run with them for lols

you can get them from recruitment if lucky

that is highly unlikely

just gotta hope thier skins reruns are frequent enough

Ah, that’s fucking lovely

Nothing quite like beating the ZT-EX-8 CM in practice mode, attempting it for real and failing, beating it in practice mode again and then attempting it for real and failing a second time

[wanton stratus]

Ah yes, I’ll put off the event stages for 6 months. Surely they’ll be available to play at that time still

[versed compass]

i attempted it in practice mode

fucked up badly

still won

realized it was not practice

[quaint arch]

This is why I don't bother clearing later EX Stages

[versed compass]

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

@wanton stratus

Wake up

Stop sleeping on the job

[tardy vigil]

Shuffle my ass

I had perfect siege-entrenched account just to meet the boss who shuffled everyone around no matter the planning

[civic linden]

He shuffles only the last 2 deployed

So you can deploy 2 fast redeploys just before: half health, start of phase 2, half health of phase 2, to bait it out

Thats what i did for the ex boss at least

[tardy vigil]

and low star guides for all ex stages feature mylnar ofc

[civic linden]

This event isn't that hard, i doubt mlynar is required, even for low rarity stuff

Guides usually constantly use busted ops cause thats the easiest way

Not that thats a problem but they do that cause some people are really annoying and complain if the guide doesn't work, even if it was their fault

[hot rampart]

tend to use busted one cuz borrow is only one single operator so that being mlynar cuz he is the best

[civic linden]

Like reed absolutely destroyd the first ex stage

There is also one stage that is so long i'm pretty sure half the ops can solo it

[tardy vigil]

I don't have reed

Everything I have at e2 is slow and long range

[hot rampart]

ur texas can bait one of his redeploy

just need another to bait

[tardy vigil]

I meant ex 1 where hoards rush in

[hot rampart]

ur horn

reach them

[civic linden]

Your Lin can handle one side too

[hot rampart]

this is the

all enemies spawned

and marching infront with a lot of ground tile ban right

[civic linden]

Yeah lin can handle one side(with a blocker)

[tardy vigil]

I forgot to change the tune

[civic linden]

I used carnelian on that map

They pretty much are the same without ranged enemies

[tardy vigil]

Her s3 has too big downtime

[civic linden]

You don't need to use it every wave

First wave comes, blocker blocks 3, only activated it during the second wave, repeat

[tardy vigil]

wowee ex 2 and 3 are so much easier to set up and bomb them to the ground

meanwhile someone did 794 rerolls for texalter and still didnt get her

theoretically my ram can handle 8 instances, doubt my cpu would

upd 1250

this person be trading sanity for the waifu

[hallow garnet]

daughter go brrrr

[tardy vigil]

Is there a previous story to this German city?

About Ebenholz and his sister?

[hot rampart]

lingering echoes is about ebenholz

hortus de escapismo has arturia and executor in it but plotwise has no deep relation to current event

[willow nymph]

ngl i'd say buying an account is probably faster and cheaper than rerolling 800 times

electricity wise

[hot rampart]

real

hell buy the one with both yato and sexas in it

im sure thats how much 800 rolls cost

[willow nymph]

no he said reroll

not rolls

[hot rampart]

ouh

im dum

but yeah ak accs are cheap af so ...

if you wanna hard reroll for an op just don't and buy an acc

[wanton stratus]

Virtuosa

he waits until last day of the banner cuz of the free dailies

Stream it @wanton stratus

I wanna see it

[bleak mirage]

When wednesday comes I’m buying up everything

[tardy vigil]

How could you pull not the first day of the banner

[wanton stratus]

Because I’m built diff

[wanton stratus]

I don’t think my shitty 7-year old iPad could take it, but I’ll send some screen shots

[wanton stratus]

First, an inventory overview. I have 752 pulls in total and 535 pulls without originite prime

54 pulls in, could this be it?

Oh, a shame

94 pulls in 🙏

Oh yes, it’s over

Well, that was acceptable. 1 Viviana and 1 Virtuosa in 94 pulls, 70 of which were from my stash. We take those

[bleak mirage]

Nice brother

You did like one ten draw less then me

I got arturia at pull 100

Vivi at 40 and two offbanners

[wanton stratus]

You got more 6* than me, at least

A small comfort

[tardy vigil]

How the heck you got so many? Skipped for months on end?

[willow nymph]

also oru farming

from the looks of it

[wanton stratus]

I only started trading orundum shards a week ago, so I’ve probably earned less than a ten-pull from that so far

[wanton stratus]

I guess so, I’ve pulled for Eyjaberry and Typhon so far this year

[tardy vigil]

This 50% pay raise is a scam

Event free pulls, even shop pulls, event odumdum: all of those inflate your income and value of red mining

[wanton stratus]

More pulls equals more better

[tardy vigil]

cant wait to download shadoba 2 and use absolutely 0 brain power on account management

go fishing
pull cards
build shadow deck because its in game's name
go back to fishing

[civic linden]

mlynar is busted because he represents the deep voiced depressed divorced man we all need in our life

I didn’t know he used to be married

he wasn't i think

he just gives the vibes of a divorced man

the minigame is... too much UI element/ button click imo

its ass to remember and do everyday

this also not including reading

💀

[mossy tinsel]

I just brute force that minigame.
Just randomly pick a few ones until the game tells you what they want.

[tardy vigil]

Not really

You skip 5 times then you read 1 red line

Just imagine this situation and it's done

Not to mention 70% of them are desire for wordly things, probably because they are random plebs from the street

[tardy vigil]

Thanks, I love bug abuses

[versed compass]

its actually not a bug

its how ak decided to code rage quit

when you rage quit in ak you count as 0 kill lost

in every stage thats just a lose

but in anni you never lose, you just get refunded if you miss the 400 kill mark

0~99 refund is max sanity refund since you gained nothing

cant use what i dont have

[quaint arch]

It should've make you insta lose the moment your Compass drop to 0

He looks autistic from the book

[wanton stratus]

[hot rampart]

spot on

[ebon sphinx]

particularly notable because Sankta have innate empathy within their race, they just instinctively know what any other Sankta feel currently. Federico/Executor uh...has stunted empathy and emotions

and exactly for that reason he's the one assigned to deal with his sister who uses emotion-based music Arts

[tardy vigil]

[ebon sphinx]

a section in his profile is just a bunch of girls at RI talking about their lack of success with him

[tardy vigil]

So he attracts girls

But they can't get anything happen?

[ebon sphinx]

yes, because his emotional capacity is barely more than a brick

[wanton stratus]

So he’s a ‘literally me’ character

[ebon sphinx]

i dunno, do you act like an Terminator?

[wanton stratus]

Actually just finished the terminator movie franchise last night

[ebon sphinx]

complete with using the same shotgun too

[tardy vigil]

What if I gave her stainless turrets?

Probably bad as her stats have downtime of 12 seconds while enemy is affected

[willow nymph]

I mean use s3 turrets

Rapid fire when necrosis is procced on them

Also gives atk to stainless possibly

For even higher synergy

isnt s3 immune to elemental damage?
