More I think about it, Ulpi being a Pusher sounds the coolest
And it fits
hallow garnet
this is me with maria delta module letting her s3 heal herself
willow nymph
Also surtr deals arts arts suck
hallow garnet
huh
willow nymph
violet vortex
Him being a Pusher also means he could be on ranger tiles to fit the same flexibility as Gladiia
willow nymph
well her sub cannons do
violet vortex
this is what he needs to be
willow nymph
logos waltuh 120
quaint arch
You're unworthy
willow nymph
i win
violet vortex
So what will Upli’s AH buff be
quaint arch
I have stupid question about Logos
Does Logos work even without Mods?
fluid verge
Smack even harder
I already get tos in guilty gear strive with may and she uses an achor
So logically ulpian will one touch bosses with mods
quaint arch
So what will Upli’s AH buff be
Elemental Damage Regen and Reduction
Nah... Too bad for a talent
fluid verge
That seems more like an AH healer or support character
violet vortex
Well Gladiia is Damage Reduction & Regen
willow nymph
I have stupid question about Logos
Does Logos work even without Mods?
yes
fluid verge
She's the team captain, she beats her underlinhs until morale improves
violet vortex
Ulpi is also a team captain
fluid verge
Wait he is?
quaint arch
So what will Upli’s AH buff be
You know what would be funny?
Make AH Buffs work on certain Ops
fluid verge
Who does he lead?
violet vortex
Skadi was under Ulpi’s team
quaint arch
willow nymph
it's not a functional change in case of logos mod
violet vortex
Which is why her skin has her using his anchor weapon
fluid verge
Guess I forgot about that
willow nymph
it's not a functional change
fluid verge
Below skadi and shark
wanton stratus
As the resident (false) prophet, I’ll make a prediction that Ulpianus will be a push stroker
willow nymph
like he goes from doing just extra arts damage w 40% chance to doing both arts and ED w 60% chance
if the damage wasn't already there
mod would be mid
the damage is there
mod is goated
violet vortex
Andre is not a real AH
fluid verge
Doesn't croissant have displacement in her kit?
violet vortex
She doesn’t have the advancements
But yeah Ulpi is Skadi’s captain
He just wasn’t around so Gladiia looked after her as a superior
Mr. Bloodborne mc himself
violet vortex
He’s also as tall as Gladiia so you know he’s a superior
All art has him as a real big dude
Also Ulpi has to be broken, they just put out WAlter to drain pulls for the real king to show up
Oh yeah and I did see it pointed out
If you add Specter Alt’s sp regen
- Duelist Defender’s sp mod
It would alleviate most if not all of the drawback to that archetype
Potentially making him just a character with an ultra broken skill that has normal sp uptime instead of the inherent downside
And if he gets the wildest AH buff like +1 block, it would make both him as a Duelist Defender better, & Skadi
fluid verge
the teacher is > the student

hallow garnet
his s3 just outdamage eyja pre mod
oh wow. i mean i wanna say eyja finally crept but like who are we kidding. there werent any other casters next to her and gg anyway so eyja still has a spot 
ah wait ifrit exists ig
forgor
hot rampart
it took them
hallow garnet
anyway all hail logos
hot rampart
to make a caster better than eyja
hallow garnet
oh he doesa
s1
w logos banner gotta be the best duo banner ever
with shu zuo close 2nd
tho hmm hag skalter was good too
and in retrospect lin is a lot better than we gave her credit for
hot rampart
she needed mod
fluid verge
i mean, its a different subclass but GG was a strong caster
fluid verge
her S3 was braindead 👏
hot rampart
s3 global attack range
but dps is dogwater idk
her s1 is literally her highest dps skill and that says something
she is like built to be at least decent with strong foundation (has ignore res and le big number talent)
but not that amazing actually
wanton stratus
ebon sphinx
one of the things shes particularly good at is versus higher res enemies since res ignore + death by a thousand cuts as opposed to a single big hit that gets reduced by a lot
for the longest time, Eyja, Ifrit and her are considered amazing thanks to the whole res reduce or ignore part
tardy vigil
In interview they said the base will be introduced slowly to not scare people
hot rampart
for the longest time, Eyja, Ifrit and her are considered amazing thanks to the w...
yes but when i say as good as eyja i have 2 criteria
- ease of use
- strong high diff use case
gg only has 1.
ifrit only has 2.
while eyja is both
i wouldnt put ifrit or gg in the same tier as eyja becuz of this
honorable mention of ceobe but she is extreme reliant case of no 2 despite having "ease of use"
she requires enemy at high diff having absurd amount def
versed compass
would not say have strong high diff use case
sure some CC favored casters but its pretty eh in IS if not for the fact we have no options
think logos will compeletly take over eyja compared to ceobe/ifrit who still have their relative niches in high end
tardy vigil
And who tf asked for plants vs zombies gacha?
HG definitely got their playerbase because of the unorthodox approach and exploration of new ways to engage players. They see how much community is involved in the limited base we already have, they successes of games like Factorio or dvarf fortress or many others production chain simulators.
The game is definitely not a genshin clone and it is exactly what HG should not be doing. I think original big titles is what gacha market needs to continue growing because not every player dreams about "another meaty action RPG, I need dark souls clone 15 I need Witcher wannabe 25 yes mooore please"
tardy vigil
I am trying to raise a point that AK endfield being niche is a good thing broadly speaking 
yee gacha wants to keep people attention all year so they look at more banners that are spaced out
other ways of monetization like WoW works more in dlc manner because they dont care when you play and when you dont play
as I understand you wont be able to build a base in one go anyway
you would have to do open world rpg and quests and progression
ebon sphinx
And who tf asked for plants vs zombies gacha?
HG definitely got their playerbase...
I do note that a game that was older than AK yet very similar exists
uh, Millennium War Aigis
predates AK, AK's formula took that and refined it by a lot
a difference is that Aigis has some insane class type bloat
tardy vigil
AK has insane class type bloat change my mind
The game is primarily available on the Japanese adult entertainment portal FANZA (previously known as DMM), although there are app versions for both Apple and Android devices.
ebon sphinx
AK has insane class type bloat change my mind
the core classes never changed from the start, Vanguard, Guard, Caster, Sniper, Supporter, Defender, Medic
it's the subclasses that are starting to be numerous
even so I can say that it's still much easier to track Vs Aigis
tardy vigil
ebon sphinx
yet I can remember almost all of what they do
tardy vigil
Maybe you played AK a lot, people learn entire skill trees in PoE
Or maybe this other one is much worse
How could I know, information on them is not so easy to find
violet vortex
AK took a lot from Aegis, enough that some could be considered plagiarized
There was one particular map that was exactly the same in function in the early stages of AK
tardy vigil
I dont see criminal similarities there
violet vortex
The map’s solution was the exact same and it uses the same layout
tardy vigil
its natural for games in the same genre to reiterate on its predecessors, so I dont like the term plagiarized. It sounds really formal as if something that can be reliably proven
civic linden
Derivative would be a better term
tardy vigil
The map’s solution was the exact same and it uses the same layout
its just roads from right left and middle + 2 block main gate. Shit you can see in lots of castles as one road is around walls and one comes directly from front
"same solution" doesnt mean anything to me. Both just cover edges of the road with tiles
tardy vigil
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=50NtyD2gbQE
there are millions solutions as you bring your unique squad
violet vortex
It followed the same vg caster sniper progression that you could use it as a guide for the ak map
This was when the game was much more simplistic and this was the common solution with your significantly weaker options
tardy vigil
idk man I literally rerolled when getting into the game and had a unique powerful 6*
- begginner banner 6*
both define my squad quite heavily compared to...baseline 3*?
idk what your "common solution" is
violet vortex
Exactly what I posted in the video
This was when silverash vs eyja for the best 6* was the debate
Nowadays obviously you could solo half the game with texas and 2*s but that’s irrelevant
hot rampart
sure some CC favored casters but its pretty eh in IS if not for the fact we have...
is3 high diff shits on caster
is4 its much better for them but eyja still being the best caster has on offer
ending 2 is easy as fuck and u dont actually need hool for it just a dedicated tank and a medic which is a basic squad build
ceobe only has her niche and mainly for ed 4 , ifrit at this point is basically is only res shred but im afraid logos has this shit built in and dont need her , texas also already offers res shred while being good for general use
mostima is a glorified supporter that slows invulnerable enemies
eyja 2 still offers decent chunk of aoe and st dmg with s2 (while still doing res shred crazy)
while s3 is just still a reliable delete everything button even at high diff
versed compass
is3 high diff shits on caster
is4 its much better for them but eyja still being...
IS4 is really just caster tickets sucking less , its still dont feel as a desired ticket
ya you pick eyja but it she still conisdered whatever
also mostima ceobe work for ed2 too
hot rampart

versed compass
of course
hot rampart

sometimes you add help in case of skull issue (which i have cause i keep pos ceobe wrong) but am sure it works on a cycle
hot rampart
thats fair i guess but the thing with stall is u naturally have it even when u not necessarily aiming for it
a dedicated healer
versed compass
but anyway as i said caster ticket is kinda underwhelming compared to otehr damage tickets until logos
versed compass

thats not true at all
you need good defender + healer to apply it
which is not always up
unless you open with jessica
versed compass
you dont pick strong defender/healer until later stages so its not (natural picks)
hot rampart
defender and a medic is pretty fair natural pick if u already have dps up and just needing
versed compass
and being flexable is pretty good idea
espically in runs where you get multiple caster tickets
instead of waiting for medics just go for plan B
hot rampart
thats a specific issue
versed compass
i dont think its specific when it happen more then half teh runs
medic/defender tickets are still used on weaker stuff even on ed2
cause you still need damage to live
anyway back to eyja talk
i dont think she have much usage vs logos once he drop
versed compass
while ceobe/mostima still keep their niches (tho mostima maybe fall off with ascalon/shu)
hot rampart
beforehand u have reed which is the better caster already
but her high burst dmg is tied to sandwich or multiple enemies in close proximity
versed compass
neither is hard to trigger lol
i think most often people overrate those consditions
when it happen in most content
all teh time
versed compass
if reed was in caster ticket she will completely put eyja out of job in IS
but being medic is better cause that mean reed or logo will be consistence now
not owning reed hurting my IS runs atm
hot rampart
should have get her in 10 pull
versed compass
even pass with hand felt ass to use somehow

wanton stratus
Been thinking about Virtuosa S1. Perhaps it’s alright to leave her at M2? She’s able to gain the last charge during the attack animation of her first two attacks after deployment anyway, for quickly triggering necrosis on a single target
wanton stratus
do you even reach those 2k
At P1 E2lv90, assuming she gets 3 ticks of her first talent off (and that the first talent is boosted by the second), she just barely procs necrosis
With M2
Maybe I forgot to account for the trust bonus

i'm pretty sure
wanton stratus
willow nymph
@versed compass you're a w simp say the skin price lore
wanton stratus
TFW guy with W related pfp isn’t the biggest W simp
willow nymph
cos you like it
isn't that why people buy skins
not because they're meta relevant
wanton stratus
Magallan skin lets her S3 hit enemies 1 frame faster than with no skin
P2W for sure
willow nymph
attack reset is what matters and 95% of people don't even know how to do it
and it works no skin
there are massive shitty dps optis to do with mag
also with s1
to get 18s of skill
willow nymph
it's not an attack reset in case of s1
because s1 cycles stay the same
so there's a very small window where you start a new bind cycle as the skill ends
and that window also allows for instant freezing when skill start
tardy vigil
not because they're meta relevant
I buy skins to use them, so I can see those units
violet vortex

hot rampart
<@358810104788942848> you're a w simp say the skin price lore
its just limited had no l2d at first
then they start making limited with l2d and wants to give older limited l2d starting from their e2 (W and rosmontis )
and then their skin
now the best thing about W skin not only they give it l2d but also special voicelines and intro animation that make it cost 24 op when release price was only 18 op 👍
tardy vigil
What is l2d
ebon sphinx
usually has the most amount of work put into it
for some time AK had only static skins while other games had L2Ds
wanton stratus
I wonder what the first L2D art was
Can’t rember
W and Rosmontis didn’t have it when they released, not sure about Dusk. I guess that leaves Skalter?
tardy vigil
Animated skins in this case
You mean splashart is a gif?
I value that thing really low
hot rampart
yeah they just cause inflation in arknights
it could just stay be an 18 op skin but they make it move around wigggle abit and add +3 op price tag for it
theres also less 15 op skin getting released too
ebon sphinx
I wonder what the first L2D art was
Skadiva I think
W and Rosmontis didn't have one initially but updated to have it
tardy vigil
This ain't inflation if income doesn't grow
It's a straight up impoverishing of f2p
Just like in controversial and extremely predatory p2w IRL

They are scared (that their beloved game will die out with less money)
Average genshinfan potato head

No just leading to a lot of toxic discourse and comparisons
I think after wuwa there will be much less
They will see genshin didn't die because of a competitor and stop being so agitated
Plus endfield barely competes with genshin

I don't think it's a fear of competition...it's just some people being toxic and a bit elitist

both arent reliable

thats not how u should see it
she does a lot of things that can apply to any sort of situation where one or more said thing can be very useful
thats her value
dmg - yeah it doesn't instantly delete enemies but it will deal its full dmg accordingly cuz no enemy currently in the game has elemental resist
slow - something extra is it good? not really in ur usecase but its there
enemy attack debuff - survivality increase for her and ur team
theres also the buff that she gives that is not significant but an increase regardless
jack of all trades
and all her trades are very decent
willow nymph
one of the most common use of s2 tutu is s3 reed
that way you just proc necrosis on everything on the map
which is a big load of damage
hot rampart
triggering the necrosis through S3 DoT makes enemy die faster too to proc the on death explosion
willow nymph
slow doesnt have universal value, it only helps sometimes
also on god ????
what are you smoking
hot rampart
thats a neat way to see it
willow nymph
defender stalling
also about this one
most defender stalls are easily replaced by body pushing +slow
there's a very small amount of maps where you want to stall a group of more than 1 and less than 4 for long
(excluding low rarity defknights because it's particular )
6* defknights doesn't even fucking anymore it just has dps to kill everything
so dumb
I hate modern 6* defenders except shu
hot rampart
yeh 6* rarity squad is basically just killing enemies before they even reach your defense line
willow nymph
since nian tell me how many didn't "just do truckton of damage while being tanky"
THERE'S ONLY SHU
Shu is cracked don't get me wrong
but atleast she isn't a dps defender even if she doubles the team's damage
hot rampart
i mean u cant really design pure defender in this days and age that all they do is
being a turtle
that wont sell
and shu definitely unique with her s3
willow nymph
i mean u cant really design pure defender in this days and age that all they do ...
You can definitely have more CC focused archetypes
I was really disappointed by the lack of cc in jessicat kit
there's only the s3 bullet in the whole kit
hot rampart
despite her cracked domain expansion s3
it also actually gives shitton of healing and decent amount of attack speed
hot rampart
You can definitely have more CC focused archetypes
I was really disappointed by...
yeah but i think this is dev issue
they probably feel like if they do this its like making glorified supporters but on melee tile AND tanky so they dont wanna do this that often
willow nymph
we still don't have shifts in 6* defenders
willow nymph
yeah but i think this is dev issue
they probably feel like if they do this its ...
Fucking ascalon
hot rampart
shu just so happen get to be said non dps defender
willow nymph
no it's not even about making melee supporters that are tanky
hot rampart
ascalon is already in an archetype where u have someone being a slow and she gets to be the better version
hot rampart
u cant say that for defender
willow nymph
ascalon is already in an archetype where u have someone being a slow and she get...
SHE GETS TAUNT AND REGEN TO NOT BE BAD AS BAIT
hot rampart
yeah that's not what im arguing
willow nymph
and you don't need to block if
-84%mvt spd
for 30 goddamn seconds
except rangeds but she outheal their hits
so it doesn't matter
hot rampart
im just saying how the dev mental gymnastic goes when designing operators for 6*
willow nymph
no i just hate how 6* defenders are designed except nian shu and blemishine because blemi was the second dps defender after hoshi and an offensive counterpart to saria
The rest is all dps ooga booga
hot rampart
next in line for a defender archetype that doesnt hv a 6* yet is the arts defender btw
its gonna be yet another dps defender 👍
hot rampart
if asbestos and shalem range to be examples
it gonna have big aoe range and arts dmg
gee i wonder what the 6* gonna do
hot rampart
yeah i dont exclude her being an arts defender
just saying the defender archetype that consist of durnar , asbestos , shalem that doesnt hv a 6* yet
for like
4 years already
willow nymph
oh just realised
Ray the only 6* with no survivability shit in her kit
since typhon

tardy vigil
Blocking is -100% mvtspd
and how does slow helps when unit is blocked?
willow nymph
slow helps before by reducing pressure because your units block less
so you need less healing to keep your ops alive
a bit less damage because you had more time to soften the enemies and can kill them before the new ones leak
Slow helps the pace of the map your way
tardy vigil
sure - on a correct path with a real slower
as I said my main complaint to virtuosa is her range
I found more success not including her - even ines has more clear visible value
S1 virtuosa at least snipes elites
willow nymph
missing like 40 units yep
wanton stratus
Who does the second talent belong to?
willow nymph
czerny
wanton stratus
I see
wanton stratus
I found more success not including her - even ines has more clear visible value
It’s one thing to say you personally dislike Ines and another entirely to say she is bad
Wouldn’t want to get diagnosed with skill issue
tardy vigil
I explicitly state that I see clear value in ines
5 second 100% slow is an impactful mechanic
plus she can kill most initial mobs on map if they dont let me myrtle safely
willow nymph
it's not impactful it's fucking stupidly overpowered

I heavily disagree, he nitpicks and focuses on particular details while ignoring others
Dialogue getting cut in autoplay and subtitles not scrolling he mentioned, but stutter on pc he didn't because his PC managed to run it fine
When all of those problems are obviously fixable - if you want to sink hundreds of hours into the game are all irrelevant
Much less relevant then having 240 stam unlike AK
- voice lines playing every 25 seconds, him sitting with a timer (hsr and genshin have afk lines)
- their first story is set in China UNLIKE AK where players get to Lungmen of Yen fraction, that clearly totally undisputably represents not China but London according to him
tardy vigil
There are reasons to dislike wuwa, but I disagree with the most that he has put forward
"omg they don't all look at me during dialogue, how dare they asian parents would whip their ass" isn't one of them
And neither is "too much skin"
tardy vigil
What I hate the most is it's story being too much yapping about shit I couldn't care less
tardy vigil
A side story about meeting performer has
- talking with 3 vendors about buying his performer things
- going with a girl on quest to save her brother who was misled by bandits who used a monster folk tale to lure him in
Talking with vendors has more text then the rest of the quest
The rest of the quest - excellent, real good shit
Bazaar yapping - why am I here, just to suffer
Same shit with the main story quests - I tried to read, it isn't even nerdy lore world building or back stories. It's yapping

what medic to e2 after ptilopsis: Sussurro or Silence?
both feel great to use
hot rampart
hmm would say sussuro? cuz for a 4* her s2 is way above her paycheck being a 4*
like the HPS is just crazy
tardy vigil
silnece is so comfy on weird maps to do off range healing
with lin her drone is enough heal to justify putting far away
hot rampart
yeah but in her case if u need that she does that just fine at e1 max with sl7
hot rampart
i dont have her s2m3 despite e2 cuz i just find her good enough with sl7 for that kinda thing
and some relic abuse
tardy vigil
it does
tardy vigil
damn really
maybe not with stats, but with level for sure
dunno if buffing her atk helps
hot rampart
actually yeah that makes sense
other operator with summons like kal , summoners , the entire beanstalk archetype have the summons scale with levels
tardy vigil
buffing medic atk so you can heal harder off range with drone is some serious
but what if you can buff atk of drone itself?!!!
tardy vigil
and untargetable by enemies and alike
its their problem, not mine
hot rampart
maybe not with stats, but with level for sure
i didnt expect silence follows this since her summon is deadass tied to her s2 only instead of talent
tardy vigil
I can target and recall it
versed compass
do they also give more hope?
on IS4 specifcally yes unironically
tho it cap on D9 which is a lot less stats then D15
they upgrade some relics at diffeculty 3 6 9
those relics are for recruiting

i think most (no deploy summons) follow this
exception being mumu archtype
hot rampart
huh hold that thought
mumu archetype doesnt follow this?
versed compass
pretty sure they can be targeted by stuff
i recall using skalter on vigil wolf for example
hot rampart
i mean as in specifically stats scaling by level
versed compass
oh mb
hot rampart
yeah im clueless about the getting targeted by buff tho
versed compass
pretty much all deploy taking summons and mumu archtype can be buffed
while no deploy summons cant

He does say that both in the first half and at the end of the video, but he never says Lungmen is London
All he says is players were introduced to Lungmen around 7 months after release

I agree it seems like unfounded criticism when his main argument was “the Chinese names are hard to remember, trust me as I am Chinese”
It’s a based take but oh so smoothbrained lol

he said lun - meeen in such a way I misheard him
no one in the west says it like that

I see
tardy vigil
but anyway dont bring up AK as an example of early game story
wanton stratus
tardy vigil
It’s a based take but oh so smoothbrained lol
it felt bad for first 5 min then my brain adapted
it isnt a critisism of the game as a whole and worse - doesnt matter for devs who sell their game mostly in china, and maybe in jp/kr
none of them get spooked by chinese names
willow nymph
if wuwa problems were cn names no one would talk about it
it's kernel level anti-cheat unpolished full of bugs 3d open world game from a company that laid off half their employees right before release
so yeah go expect improvements from a company that fired their manpower
tardy vigil
so yeah go expect improvements from a company that fired their manpower
They clearly didn't deliver
Really it says they went over their budget to develop the game
willow nymph
Really it says they went over their budget to develop the game
lack of Proper planning being an issue just says a lot about kuro games
it's far from their first gacha
well honestly it says a lot about their upper management honestly
the money to develop the game was enough with the money from pgr
development time ? clearly not considering cbt1,2 and release were in a row
the budget? i don't have insider info but usually when you add a new long term project to your company you hire people not fire them
you can see healthy development process from HG's example
They actually HIRE people when they make new projects, they take time between cbt and release to fix things
they take time before releasing a cbt
tardy vigil
lack of Proper planning being an issue just says a lot about kuro games
it clearly was their planning
hot rampart
arknight cbt also looked fairly different art and look wise compared to the final product
and kal being put into npc jail for 2 years despite existing since cbt
willow nymph
Kuro games has way too many issues at that point when making gachas
it's all good ideas that go into shit
hot rampart
if i had a nickle every time kuro games fucks up the launch for their gacha game i have 3 nickles which isnt a lot but its strange it happened thrice
3rd one being the WORST possible fuck up too personally
willow nymph
it's a burning mess yeah leave me far from that crap
meanwhile hg collabs with hello kitty :true
hot rampart
1st was technical issue and they had to rollback server and piss a lot of the launch playerbase ,
2nd is pgr global english management issue with in-store mtx pricing and fucking ruined the launch first impression through a discord message of all fucking thing to smear your launch (the 1 dollar drama)
willow nymph
oh yeah there's still a 1 dollar thing in wuwa
you could buy 99$ dollar pack while paying $1 dollar
hot rampart
willow nymph
they didn't roll it back so uh
some people are just stashed out
probably because of the pgr thing
hot rampart
i want to use kuro being a publicly traded company as the scapegoat for shit to go half baked like this especially the company layoff as the work as one of the higher ups but man hope they get their shit together man
hot rampart
just a sad existence overall
willow nymph
also yuck kernel level anti-cheat
hot rampart
first impression in any gacha is not something u fuck up without heavy punishment
willow nymph
if it was only first impression
hot rampart
really hope HG didnt go this way pls god

very clearly hasn't yet atleast
just gonna hope they don't have their yearly summer stroke

better not release this shit during summer

first impression matters but when people first impression is how insufferable it is to even start playing they will have this negativity thinking and start being nitpicky and these are the results of it
