Punishing: Gray Raven

[proven marten]

memory = stigmata/relic/artifact

in hi3/hsr/genshin terms

resonance = substats however there is no rng involved as we have ways to select the exact ones we want. also there is no value rng involved either

[sand verge]

thats cool

but doesnt that remove a lot of the endgame farming?

[proven marten]

yesnt

it largely removes gear farming

but there are tons of shit to farm to progess character

similar to mastery/modules in AK

we have leap upgrades, memory resonance, weapon resonance

awakenings

ultimate awakening

and so on and so forth

the endgame farming is more focused on linear, largely non-rng grind rather than stat rng malding

which is amazing

and since these mats can be bought from event shop it just makes endgame farming very easy

cuz it's not the point of the game

the point is the combat and skill involved in competing in the endgame modes

im a fucking day 5 player and im writing essays like im a year 2 player

tho to be fair the game itself is pretty easy for me to pickup as it shares so many similarities with hi3

and in a lot of cases very much improved on hi3's systems

[supple vine]

some bits are worse some are better

[proven marten]

im tryna think what's worse

in terms of systems

[supple vine]

i think the story is worse for 1 and i like honkai charecter designs more

in terms of systems only the ui

[proven marten]

ah sure thats subjective

[supple vine]

the ui is worse

imo

[proven marten]

they are probably equally horrible

any beginner gets lost in both of them

[sand verge]

I dont like the characters that much
they're like an uncanny valley of hoyo anime and too realistic looking

[proven marten]

so many fkin menus and submenus and even subber menus

[sand verge]

but yes my main gripe are the fucking menus

but I guess you get used to them

[proven marten]

yeah

[supple vine]

god i cant wait for hi3 ui update

[proven marten]

looking thru it

it doesnt improve much

[supple vine]

worst part of game fixed

[proven marten]

just looks different

in terms of design

[supple vine]

god really

?

[proven marten]

yeah

[supple vine]

thats not good

[proven marten]

they just swapped it to a more "tech" look

[tribal iron]

its joever

[proven marten]

also seemingly removed the bridge

but i hope to god thats just an oversight

[supple vine]

you can swap between new and the bridge

[proven marten]

thank god

if we talk just system-wise

i dont like how we dont get RC for 1st time completion

[tribal iron]

max efficiency

[proven marten]

and i somewhat dislike the rng feel of the orb system tho i am getting over that already

and it's not as rng as it felt on first look

i just didnt know about switch skills

[sand verge]

I think orb system is p good actually making decisions on the fly on which ones to get rid of to fish for a bigger combo or just cash in what you have

[proven marten]

yea it grew on me

plus most of the time it doesnt really matter

which color

as long as it's a 3 ping

and where it does usually it's built into their switch skill

so for example rosetta's only special 3ping is her blue

but she autocasts blue 3ping on switch

so that solves the issue

same with veritas who wants to start her combo with a 3red 1 blue

but her switch casts a 3red

so u only need to quickly fish 1 blue

it's a fun idea definitely

at least i havent seen this in my other gachas before

[sand verge]

btw why is there a difference between holding F or holding M1

[proven marten]

i dont understand the question

whats F

[flat jolt]

I am level 67

[proven marten]

i rebound most of my keys

[flat jolt]

But like

[sand verge]

rapid fire basic attack I think

[flat jolt]

This is my second account, idk wtf did I do to my first account

[proven marten]

ah. it means you dont have to hold it

it's supposed to be a toggle

but nobody uses that

outside uh

palefire lee

[flat jolt]

Holding dodge to launch an attack

The new move

New Bianca has that kinda mechanic right?

It’s similar to haicma

[proven marten]

yesnt

haicma has to really hold it

bianca is just a long press

and she can trigger matrix with it

[flat jolt]

Man, gimme the omniframe haicma pls game

[proven marten]

in exchange she cannot trigger matrix on an ex dodge

[sand verge]

bianca I like a lot

[flat jolt]

Or a manaka iwami character

[proven marten]

bianca is amazing

especially stigmata frame

so good

[sand verge]

the fingersnap thing is really cool

[flat jolt]

I thought she was Rosetta a hot minute

And then I checked the name

[proven marten]

the snap is kinda her thing

all her frames do it

but her other 2 frames are bow users

[supple vine]

@proven marten is there any point to uniframes

?

[proven marten]

yesnt

for main game purposes not really

there are modes where they can be handy

but as i understood they are mostly a copout way to take npcs out of jail

or make "villains" playable

[supple vine]

got it

[proven marten]

some of them eventually escape uniframe jail tho

like selena

Qu is about to escape it aswell

[supple vine]

so im getting that they are mostly for fun

rather than compeitive

[proven marten]

100%

originally they werent even playable outside their special modes

[supple vine]

lol

[proven marten]

nowdays you can play them together with omniframes but they get a -30% dmg for each omni in the team

[tribal iron]

anyone tell me what is this

[proven marten]

now that i have zero clue about

[supple vine]

thats some monkers stat nerf

[proven marten]

i have yet to dive into dorm

[proven marten]

cuz they have monkers numbers apparently

and they can be pulled with a 10pull pity

and they are all S ranks

[supple vine]

you go in and like interact with the chibi in the dorm

[proven marten]

just ignore them

[proven marten]

OH THATS IT?

[flat jolt]

Da winkie?

[proven marten]

just pat them?

[tribal iron]

i already that

[supple vine]

yep

iirc

[tribal iron]

and it didnt count

[proven marten]

the most used support set

[flat jolt]

No

There an interaction thing in the menu

Click on the character and then in the left side, you should see it

Hold on

Ignore the battery

Ya see the interact button there above the guide?

[tribal iron]

yes

[proven marten]

but thats not the dorm event

[flat jolt]

[flat jolt]

Oh there’s an interaction thing for the dorm event?

[proven marten]

dunno

but that was the original question

😄

[tribal iron]

am i blind

do i need to put my glasses on or what

where are they

oh there is another page?

thats weird

❓

why is one considered gear, the other an item

[proven marten]

gear stuff can be reduced, item stuff cant

thats all

and dont ask why one is item and the other is gear

regards to the same looking enhance mat

[tribal iron]

pog got another S omniface thing

[flat jolt]

Man this skin looks so pretty

Fuck if I’m ever gonna pay for that

[proven marten]

oh yea

[flat jolt]

O?

[proven marten]

too bad plume gameplay is still bleh

[proven marten]

who

[flat jolt]

I’m sure I’ll grow into it

[proven marten]

im gonna ignore her

and enjoy bambi next patch

[flat jolt]

Selena gameplay was weird at first but now I love her

[flat jolt]

Still can’t get over tempest tho

[proven marten]

oh you mean selector

[flat jolt]

I was so disappointed

[flat jolt]

What characters do ya have in general

It’s prolly better to get a character that suits your team

[proven marten]

did you roll bianca?

[proven marten]

there are exactly 3 useful units in that selector (4 if you ignore upcoming stuff)

[tribal iron]

• bigger asta + kamui + nanami storm

[proven marten]

ah no bianca

which kamui?

[tribal iron]

bastion

[proven marten]

ah not tenebra

okay

so

your 3 choices are

[flat jolt]

I mean laura is prolly okay

[proven marten]

rosetta - best phys tank
luna - best dark dps (until july 2024)
plume - best ice dps (until oct/nov 2024) - whoever we get a FREE ice dps next patch - bambi, whos pretty good and would fulfill your ice dps needs just fine

rosetta would be my choice if you rolled bianca

cuz bianca+rosetta+luminance is the mtea phys team

[flat jolt]

I can replace wanshi for bambi then I guess?

[proven marten]

if you do not plan on getting bianca just go get luna

[proven marten]

no you cant

wanshi is a support, bambi is pure dps

[flat jolt]

Is wanshi the amp

Oh

[proven marten]

besides wanshi is getting crept in january by free ice ayla

[flat jolt]

What’s the current ayla then?

[proven marten]

shes a mostly all-purpose beginner elemental tank

but shes outdated so shes fine if u have literally nothing else

new ayla is amp unit

so new ice team will be plume/bambi , glory, ayla

kaleido is her frame name

[tribal iron]

10 more levels to get those juicy 10 pulls for standare

[proven marten]

anyway for emma

[tribal iron]

[proven marten]

i'd say hold off on using the selector

until you get your 40pity on standard

[tribal iron]

damn

why did i get chrome

now im starting to like the game

[proven marten]

you got glory?

yall gotta start calling them by their frame name if they have more than 1 frame

otherwise im confused

😄

[tribal iron]

too bad

thats what these games get for making a bazillion copies

[proven marten]

sigh

[tribal iron]

of the same characters

[proven marten]

bazillion

chrome has 2 copies

-_-

anyway which chromeeeee

@tribal iron

[tribal iron]

the basic one idk

[proven marten]

arclight?

[tribal iron]

arclight

[proven marten]

ah okay

A rank then

[tribal iron]

zoomie zoomie

[proven marten]

hes good

lightning tank

powercrept by vera garnet

but hes totally fine

anyway, let me know when u hit ur 40 pity

on base banner

im interested to see who u get

[flat jolt]

Base banner?

[tribal iron]

currently at 21/40

[rigid kelp]

yay tomorrow reverse 1999 bri ish

[rigid kelp]

elysia

[proven marten]

aye

[rigid kelp]

also pgr does bow char the best

[proven marten]

the purple card banner

[rigid kelp]

imo

[proven marten]

for the first ever S rank you have a 40 pity instead of 60

[rigid kelp]

alisa and bianca are cool af

[proven marten]

i need balter SS

i should have rolled more

and try for a dupe

sheesh

now i can wait to get enough skulls

[flat jolt]

Cool

Gonna start that and hope it is alright

[tribal iron]

what does War Zone give as rewards primarily

[proven marten]

it's abyss

just the 2 sides are separately challengeable

otherwise literally the same concept

actually it's more like hi3 abyss

but twice

[rigid kelp]

bc

[proven marten]

2 different weathers

and yes it gives BC

[rigid kelp]

same

[tribal iron]

i dont speak acronynoms yet

whats bc

[proven marten]

black card

= primos

[tribal iron]

okay i aint that stupid

[proven marten]

just making sure

[tribal iron]

💀

[proven marten]

[rigid kelp]

https://tenor.com/view/banji-wanshi-pgr-punishing-gray-raven-sussy-baka-gif-22784142

[proven marten]

for a sec i thuoght it was gonna be another hyperlee plug

[rigid kelp]

LMAO

https://tenor.com/view/anime-umamusume-teio-tokai-ballin-gif-4425670698508250914

[proven marten]

okay

we can actually team up

for war zone

now that i read up on it

during the recruitment phase we can choose each other

and then we wont get 2 randoms

[rigid kelp]

wew

[proven marten]

so yall better fucking shape up

cuz i need malding partners

[rigid kelp]

for a sec i read mating

[proven marten]

wait

war zone

[rigid kelp]

[proven marten]

is twice a week right?

like hi3 abyss

[rigid kelp]

honestly idk

XDDD

i just do it

[proven marten]

dear lord

do you do it more than once a week?

😄

[rigid kelp]

yes

[proven marten]

alr

so the guide saying "biweekly" means twice a week

not 2 weeks

they just dont know english

[flat jolt]

I’ll try

[proven marten]

or wait biweekly means twice a week too

[flat jolt]

Considering my team isn’t even a team

Biweekly means twice a week

[proven marten]

@flat jolt @rigid kelp yall both failed when u picked plume over rose tho

but ily anyway

[flat jolt]

Fortnight is in 2 weeks

[proven marten]

[flat jolt]

I mean considering I’m focusing on Selena rn anyways

My phy team wouldn’t have been built till next year

[tribal iron]

what lvl are you

[proven marten]

58

[rigid kelp]

i dont need rosetta i have the power of friendship

[proven marten]

but ur not even eu emma

[flat jolt]

I’m 69

[tribal iron]

addict

[flat jolt]

[rigid kelp]

89

[proven marten]

im sorry i found a game i liked so im rushing to get into the mald

[flat jolt]

I think if I had my first account and I didn’t mald during Lucia alpha banner

[proven marten]

aah okay

[flat jolt]

I prolly would’ve hit max level or something

[proven marten]

so we cant play together just yet

[flat jolt]

I started this game during launch week

[proven marten]

so let's agree to get our accounts in order by the time i get to lv 80

[rigid kelp]

[proven marten]

and since im not above spending i'll probably catch up fast

[rigid kelp]

i lost that acc

[flat jolt]

Oof

I malded hard

Cuz I pulled on the wrong alpha banner

[rigid kelp]

it didnt had anything anyway

[flat jolt]

I saved pity for alpha

And I fucked it by summoning on the other one

[rigid kelp]

[flat jolt]

And then I quit the game

[rigid kelp]

lmao

[flat jolt]

For a year before starting this account

[rigid kelp]

rip bozo

[flat jolt]

But ye, I love Selena

I don’t care that she’s an amp

She will always be my main dps

[proven marten]

what i dont get

we have 5 zones

and we can unlock 2

but the 2 is randomyl selected anyway

so why do i have to "unlock"

it's like the illusion of choice

[tribal iron]

smh

[proven marten]

shoulda made an eu account

smh

[tribal iron]

sure ill make one also

[proven marten]

anyway go go go play get to that first S rank fast

im hyped for it

and it's not even my own gacha

[tribal iron]

furiHUH

[proven marten]

[tribal iron]

wtf

u actually have it

[proven marten]

https://tenor.com/view/hair-flip-duhh-gif-26170789

[flat jolt]

Literally, this is my main team

[rigid kelp]

https://tenor.com/view/lamia-lamia-pgr-gif-2151191760868905918

[tribal iron]

oh yeah ur in the server

[flat jolt]

[proven marten]

erm thats 3 different elements and all supports

but

sure

😄

[rigid kelp]

[flat jolt]

It’s all different

[rigid kelp]

im raising nanami tank

[proven marten]

yeye typo

[flat jolt]

Dark amp, lightning support, physical support

[rigid kelp]

so i have at least 1 supp for my boy

lee

[proven marten]

i mean this is good for fun

[rigid kelp]

im not gay but man lee

[proven marten]

but i hope this is not your endgame plan

[flat jolt]

Not at all

Cuz I never thought about it

I wanna max out my livs first

[proven marten]

I SO KNOW THIS FEELING

[flat jolt]

At least get them to SSS at least

[proven marten]

im not straight but bianca is doing something for me

~~ and vera~~

[flat jolt]

For me that’s uhh

Selena

I can’t think of anyone else

[rigid kelp]

[proven marten]

ah so ur not doing warzone or ppc or any of it?

[flat jolt]

Or maybe the new alpha that’ll save lightning

[rigid kelp]

alisa makes me super straight tho

[flat jolt]

I’m doing war zone, just not doing that well at it

[proven marten]

she sure will

[rigid kelp]

lmao

[proven marten]

no surprise

you have one team

[flat jolt]

Got like 380k points in one of the things

[proven marten]

😄

[flat jolt]

It wasn’t that bad

[proven marten]

you can do better

i believe

[flat jolt]

Phantom pain is hard in general

I mean I’m not that bothered

BUT

[proven marten]

thats okay

i need to get 2 maldy eu ppl

[flat jolt]

I do have some characters I need to level up

[proven marten]

who will mald with me

[flat jolt]

What does mald mean here

Like, get salty?

[proven marten]

mald as in tryhard for score

[flat jolt]

I see

Yea, I ain’t that competitive

[proven marten]

or at least

have an actual viable taem

like thats the baseline

[flat jolt]

Maybe Reiv or seylm will do it

[proven marten]

reiv is sea

selym is na

[flat jolt]

I mean I have it, kinda

[proven marten]

so im fked

[flat jolt]

Once I get A liv to SSS

I’ll focus on wanshi

[proven marten]

who will die in january

tragically

[flat jolt]

Then I can just focus on the new girl

I mean it’s still alright to have wanshi until I can like

Build up the new chara

[proven marten]

i mean building isnt that deep ur not even 80 yet

so

it's just a matter of spamming that event stage

getting the memories

[flat jolt]

I need to figure out what the resonance shit means

Also need to get weapons

[proven marten]

basically substats

[flat jolt]

[flat jolt]

Right, do I gotta max out the reso memories?

[proven marten]

eventually yes

but the main focus is to have at least two teams up and running

preferably 5 teams

one for each ele

with memories

then u can think about diving deeper

but i'd be happy with 2 teams alrdy

so you have at least a chance of getting the warzone weather right

[flat jolt]

I don’t know if I got nuff charas for 5 teams BUT

[rigid kelp]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-JW89Y7YDGE&pp=ygUScGdyIGFsaXNhIGdhbWVwbGF5

wife

[flat jolt]

I’ll start working on the teams

Lemme finish maxing out Selena memories first

[proven marten]

teamcomps are in pinned

[flat jolt]

And then I’ll build that ice team

[flat jolt]

Ye I saw

[proven marten]

dark team is the easiest to build

cuz all 3 of them are A ranks for starter comp

and you have an upgrade in selena

[flat jolt]

I gotta read these memories and chara skills

[proven marten]

lightning is finnicky to build unless you luck into vertias cuz shes not worth aiming for anymore as alpha will kill her ass

[flat jolt]

I have been just pressing buttons

[proven marten]

[flat jolt]

I don’t think I have any vera frames

[proven marten]

shes an A rank

get her from base banner

[flat jolt]

Besides the base one

O it’s the base one

[proven marten]

rozen

is the dark support

but you wont be using her

cuz you have selena

selena is gonna be your elemental support in every team

[flat jolt]

Well first goal is to make the ice team

[proven marten]

until you get empyera

and the rest

[flat jolt]

I have glory and plume

[rigid kelp]

selena needs SSS really

lmao

[proven marten]

rola is going for that

cuz selena their top waifu

[rigid kelp]

gl

gen 2 dark tank when

[proven marten]

plume glory wanshi is 1 comp - you have ice done

just get their memories

[rigid kelp]

can we retire 21 and kamui

[proven marten]

they are retired wdym

scire powercrept them

[flat jolt]

I gotta build characters for phantom pain as well

Fuck

[rigid kelp]

SS+ required

lol

also

i forgot she existed

LMAO

[proven marten]

SS is required for a lot of ppl

im starting to see

that the gacha pity is so low and guaranteed

cuz S rank isnt rlly enough for high competition

but it will work for us just fine

[rigid kelp]

i mean

who cares about competition

[proven marten]

well then she dun need SS

[rigid kelp]

i just want cool husbando and wifes

[proven marten]

is your tenebra SS?

[rigid kelp]

tenebra?

[proven marten]

kamui

tenebrion

i call him tenebra

😄

[rigid kelp]

i use SSS+ 21

[proven marten]

ah

[rigid kelp]

it works fine

[proven marten]

cool cool

yea she does

i need to beeline SS/SS3 stigma

cuz S rank is coooope

not having enough bar for double combo

feelsbad

[rigid kelp]

can we get alisa areadly

[proven marten]

im hyped for bambi for now

her moveset looks so unique

[rigid kelp]

what she even does

[proven marten]

shes ice dps

worse than plume ofc but good enough to let me not hunt for plume

[tribal iron]

damn wtf

i went from 40 to 50 quick

[proven marten]

did u get a mentor alrdy?

[proven marten]

if not then get one

military instructor or whatever is the name

those missions shoot you up in lvl like crazy

[tribal iron]

no but thats probably why

i did the collab mission

[rigid kelp]

its called bitch slayer

[tribal iron]

gave me 10 levels instantly

alright

[proven marten]

did you have 3 or 6 slots for the collab mission?

[tribal iron]

ill get 50

i mean

[proven marten]

iirc without mentor u only get 3

[tribal iron]

40 pity

i had 6 slots

[proven marten]

hmm

okay so all the actual mentor does is give you memory frags

okay

[proven marten]

now?

u have enough,

?

[tribal iron]

yeah

imma do a isngle

[proven marten]

WAIT

WAIt

you are using purple cards right?

and not BC

dont use bc on base banner

[proven marten]

it's like throwing primos into standard

[tribal iron]

ariel ive already got gacha experience

smh smh

[proven marten]

just making sure

also im thinkin

@rigid kelp when do new S ranks enter base banner?

the patch after?

[tribal iron]

39/40

lets go

[proven marten]

or when the next S rank comes

cuz bianca might be in it

next patch

[rigid kelp]

i think when patch ends

idk cause im a returnee

[proven marten]

so ideally

emma should wait

till patch ends

so theres a chance for balter

[rigid kelp]

i think the first pity is like

[tribal iron]

💀

[rigid kelp]

only release chars

but ya gotta check

[proven marten]

veritas was release char?

[tribal iron]

whats balter

[rigid kelp]

ye shes old

af

[proven marten]

bianca stigmata = bianca alter

= balter

cuz of the whole saber alter reference

[proven marten]

lul

i got her too

veritas

top meta lightning dps until february

[tribal iron]

smh wheres my beginner luck, i shouldve gotten 3 highest rank characters by now

[proven marten]

tho her tank outdpses her

[tribal iron]

trash game

[proven marten]

kek

anyway you can use the selector now if you want to

unless ur good to wait

till a 2nd S rank from base 😄

[tribal iron]

💀

[rigid kelp]

i have SS veritas...

[tribal iron]

i can already tell this game is going to be forever to gain stuff

so i aint gonna wait

[rigid kelp]

her leap makes her better but by then alpha crimson weave exist

[proven marten]

alr

[tribal iron]

i got Wanshi hypnos also i guess

[proven marten]

get luna from the selector then imo

her wep is in the wep selector u get later

from the guide missions

shes basically pgr's hov

[tribal iron]

she uses gun?

[proven marten]

she uses void spkies

[tribal iron]

chrome decked out

[proven marten]

and u got the dps for him

put them together with whoever support (lux is best after she hits SS until then whoever works with the basic elemental support set )

and you have your lightning comp

by picking luna and her wep you can have a dark comp

with vera rozen + 21

and there's ur 2 comps

for ice u can have bambi, wanshi, ayla

if u roll hyperlee u can have something with fire too

so only phys thats gonna be nonexistent

and this is fine coverage

[tribal iron]

smh and i trained lucia well

[proven marten]

lotus isnt very good sadly

your next best thing is probably crimson alpha or lee entropy

but without rosetta it's just eh

[tribal iron]

damn i dont have good bows

[proven marten]

just let phys go for now

focus on your dark first and foremost since thats where u have a dps that has more than 4 months to live

but lightning also works

[tribal iron]

wait why is the dark dps

who*

[proven marten]

luna

[tribal iron]

sorry engrish broke

[proven marten]

ur getting her from the selector don't you?

[tribal iron]

oh

i thought she was a support

for some reason

[proven marten]

nah

[tribal iron]

i probably read another by accident

[proven marten]

shes the premier dark dps till next july

then shes drowned by a certain mermaid

[tribal iron]

why does bianca get a 3* bow but luna gets a 4*

[proven marten]

cuz selector is nice

but dun matter cuz u get luna's 6* wep

from the wep selector

in a couple days

if you really wanna make veritas happen you can throw a 10pull on her bow ig

[tribal iron]

hierachy

[proven marten]

but do check out her gameplay first at least

maybe u wont like her

https://tenor.com/view/pgr-punishing-gray-raven-alpha-pgr-alpha-punishing-gray-raven-alpha-gif-27258814

and this bitch is killing her in february

[rigid kelp]

https://tenor.com/view/pgr-punishing-gray-raven-lucia-alpha-wintry-shackles-gif-17817094631059065697

coolest char in the game

[tribal iron]

damn

i bought faded colors

and after that, it gave me a box that has it

[proven marten]

[tribal iron]

now i have 2 useless weapon boxes

because i dont have any user for them

[proven marten]

what do u have

[tribal iron]

i mean technically i can buy a greatsword

[proven marten]

you can get another faded colors for ayla for ice tank ig and there's a 5* katana in there what will work fine on rozen

[tribal iron]

but nah

[flat jolt]

I feel like liv is a cheat code for this pantomime mode

[tribal iron]

thre is no 5* kata on these boxes so far

[proven marten]

SHE IS

[tribal iron]

[proven marten]

what kind of weirdo boxes are those

[flat jolt]

Also, how is she an amp when she does so much damage

Or am I being dumb

[proven marten]

ur in a mode where ur megabuffed

[tribal iron]

its gun, canon, magma pillar, greatsword, chainsaw

[proven marten]

lol

[tribal iron]

and the other is

dynamo greatsword, faded, whit qilin and animus

[flat jolt]

I mean she looks like she prolly has big damage in general, no?

I guess not

[proven marten]

she does

with SSS

and dps build

[flat jolt]

I c

[proven marten]

but she cant compete with an actual dps

and you wont be running her on dps gear

that mode put her on full dps gear

[flat jolt]

I’ll do it once I make the support build

Still dunno how to get her to sss tho

I c

[proven marten]

animus is good for 21, thats her 5* wep

[proven marten]

skulls...like everybody else

@tribal ironyou will eventually get a 5* A rank support wep box. that has a katana for vera

[proven marten]

and from this box u can pick guardian mount and put it on any liv frame

[tribal iron]

which vera

[proven marten]

rozen

the dark supp

[tribal iron]

oh i can get her

[proven marten]

yes

...

[tribal iron]

from this 4* box

[proven marten]

you can get her

form the base banner

[tribal iron]

5*

[proven marten]

you can choose ur rateup still

[tribal iron]

i got this choice pack

😄

[tribal iron]

oh i already have one

[proven marten]

pick vera from there and pick 21 from the tank one

[proven marten]

then keep the box for now ig

[tribal iron]

ok cool i got vera

[proven marten]

now get 21

and u have ur dark team

make sure to get their ranks up from the base banner

ur a dark main now son

[tribal iron]

well i cant get 21 i think

[proven marten]

what did u use the tank box on?

arclight?

[tribal iron]

probably

[proven marten]

just put her as the rateup on base banner

and you get her a 10pull

[tribal iron]

damn now i am an adict

8 levels behind ariel

[proven marten]

lol

go go

why arent u on fkin eu

i need you

[tribal iron]

i couldve probably

this game doesnt require lots of internet

[proven marten]

it's fine

[tribal iron]

its okay, ill just make an eu character and get 2 6* there

[proven marten]

[tribal iron]

Eu is always lucky for me

got JY on the first 10 pull on HSR

got Rizzley and Jean on Jenshin within 20 pulls

[proven marten]

pff

too bad no bianca banner anymore

could have tried ur eu luck on her

[tribal iron]

[proven marten]

aaaaa im torn do i try to roll veritas bow

her 5* bow has fkin crit cdmg boost

for some damn reason

on a lightning dps

like

?????????

i get that shes old af

but srsly

[tribal iron]

how do u get red cards

is it only black cards

[proven marten]

bc or $$

[tribal iron]

i still havent gotten one

ah

lee is taking forever

he better hurry up

[flat jolt]

Wait skulls? Like

The phantom pain thing?

[tribal iron]

pog

i can access the event now

nice

[proven marten]

yeah thats why we grind ppc. skulls are the only non-gacha way to rank up S ranks

[tribal iron]

okay she's 2.5k battle power now

whats ppc

damn

okay i thought she was long range but still cool

[proven marten]

ppc = phantom pain cage = pgr's version of hi3 memorial arena

[flat jolt]

And I gotta build charas to do the ppc

Fun moments

I need to get the exp

[proven marten]

okay

i found actual use for uniframe

since im not gonna bother with dark team building now

camu is gonna have to solo ppc dark half

[tribal iron]

[proven marten]

btw @tribal iron down the line you will get a 5* wep selector that has a bow

you can put that on veritas

im building the same team now

[tribal iron]

[proven marten]

so we can do it together

[tribal iron]

when did u get it

or how

guide?

[proven marten]

day 3 guide quest

have 10 memories lv 35

[tribal iron]

god damn

10

[proven marten]

you will have that in not time

no time

trust me

just farm the event diligently

u hit lv 40 alrdy

did you finish ch5?

[tribal iron]

im still at chapter 4

[proven marten]

push on

finish 5-7

then u will dump all your stuff into the event

and get your lightning team fully kitted

[tribal iron]

is matrix the time stop here

[proven marten]

yes

well

no

yesnt

😄

[tribal iron]

[proven marten]

from what i gather pgr doesnt have time frac

just timestop

[tribal iron]

i mean its the mode that you enter when you dodge perfect right?

[proven marten]

so in essence matrix is timestop yes

[tribal iron]

kk

[proven marten]

but in hi3 perfect dodge gives timefrac not timestop

just to clear that up

[tribal iron]

well nice

[proven marten]

hanna

you can put that on bambi

thats her main set

cuz shes a 3ping spammer

but worry about that later

main goal for you rn is:
finish 5-7
get your lightning team geared
then get your AAA dark team (consisting of astral watanabe, vera rozen, and 21)
then u can go ice with bambi, ayla, hypnos

but dark team is stronger than that unless you sacc chrome glory for it

also as it turns out @flat jolt in ice team plume is basically a quickswap character, you swap her in for quick pings and ult and your main onfielder is glory, thats why u need glory wep more than plume

[tribal iron]

i am finished

dang it also has solar ring tho

[proven marten]

?

what do you want with that?

wait you have luna RIGHT

[tribal iron]

yeah

[proven marten]

okay scrap the lightning team

but dont get that

you can have her 6* wep

[tribal iron]

[proven marten]

from the selector at the end of the guide track

OMG YOU DIDNT GET IT RIGHT?

[tribal iron]

so i dont get solar ring??

[proven marten]

no

you get the bow

for veritas

[tribal iron]

tf

ok then

[proven marten]

you get ozma from the last selector

thats a couple days

alr i totally forgot about luna

so

change of plans

u dont need AAA dark team xd

[tribal iron]

3 more days

[proven marten]

so get to 5-7

then farm event full force

get dark team kitted

i'll help you with it if you dont wanna do your own reserach

but everything is in the pinned comp list

the memory set for vera is the same that lux will use for lightning and we have presets so u can easily swap with 1 click between characters

hoyo could never

[tribal iron]

how do u preset

[proven marten]

when u are on a memory page

[tribal iron]

oh

found it

[proven marten]

top right has memory set

then u can ave

anyway

pay attention to the memory placements

bottom row ones always boost atk and def, top row boosts hp and crit

so focus on the bottom row

this also means that you have to fit your memories the same way between characters that use the same thing

so example:

this is the general element support set

used both by rozen and lux

guin is the general "buff dmg on heal" 2pc

and davinci (=dv in the future) is needed in every team

it forces the other units qte too for a quick burst

so you will level the bottom dv pieces

and you put them in this order

we get 2pc guin for free from some mission but it's 1 and 4 i think and you want 3

so you will still have to get guin 3 from event sthop

since all dv users will have dv laid out in the 2 4 5 6 position with the 2pc flex on 1 3

it's improtant to keep this in mind

cuz these boxes dont always give us the correct pieces

the 4pc dv we get from guide has 2 3 5 6 i think

1 piece is wrong i forgot whcih

so you'll have to buy that from event too

ANYWAY

keep grinding to 5-7 D:

[supple vine]
