[velvet hull]

F

cancer mode

Sabrina, Suomi, WAWA, and QJ/V2 Ullrid should be a very cancerous defence team

[bronze bay]

one ten pull ez

[cloud cypress]

Omg blessed

Lemme siphon some of that rng for later

[tropic forge]

i have won 50/50 3 times in a row now...as for the weapon uh, its not a WA2000 but it works...i guess?

[cloud cypress]

Now im scared

Too many lucky ppl in here

It means i will be rekt

Already got rekt with Suomi

[velvet hull]

Its only like a 5% diff between Samosek and her wep I think

[cloud cypress]

Its funsies mode, top 10% is extremely easy to obtain

I mean 50%

[cloud cypress]

No further rewards after that so its just for fun

[velvet hull]

100% of enemies have Suomi
pokes shield
gets frozen in place

Too busy yapping on discord

Bruh hard pity

[somber pollen]

50/50 isnt hard pity lol

[cloud cypress]

I mean 80 pulls

[somber pollen]

yeah

that isnt hard pity

160 is hard pity

[cloud cypress]

It is hard pity for first round lol

But we needn’t discuss how rekt i got

This purple weapon is pretty aight, i think i’ll use it for wawa

[somber pollen]

no its called soft pity

[cloud cypress]

Bro is still going

For me soft pity is like from 60 to 70 pulls hence why i do single pulls cuz the rate is kinda boosted at that zone

[velvet hull]

ye

I do that too

Tho if pulling for multiple dupes then its not really effective

Since the extra pulls would carry over to the next pity anyway

[weak merlin]

Let's fucking go
I won

[cloud cypress]

O ye i forgot im gatecucked by Basic Info Core

Makiato gonna be slow build

[weak merlin]

The event should have some no?

I haven't checked the stuff

[cloud cypress]

Oh ye u right lets see

I can get 6x there, not bad

[weak merlin]

Only 2 keys huh

Welp
Wait for shop reset ig

[fallen pebble]

Wtf

[bronze bay]

yeah

why live

cant ring wachan

[cloud cypress]

Dam

Baited

[bronze bay]

bought the skin frame 1

[velvet hull]

Guess you'll have to ring Littara instead

[small wharf]

i got fucked

210 pulls for v1 and weap

[cedar wyvern]

Still winning 50/50s

[small wharf]

lost 50 50 to TLL so its not all that bad

[cedar wyvern]

100 pulls for V1 but now I am spent

[small wharf]

grats

[cedar wyvern]

her best f2p option is Samosek?

[small wharf]

yea

[cedar wyvern]

The outfits in this game are so good

[cloud cypress]

That they are

[cedar wyvern]

Ohh she doesn't have journals and memories, wierd. Did they add them later in CN?

[velvet hull]

Meyb

They wouldn't dare not to

Not sure if her Dusty Journals is up tho

[cloud cypress]

Or maybe shes a social experiment

[velvet hull]

Everyone up to Suomi has their Dusty Journal there

[cloud cypress]

Lets see if ppl wil lwhale on this char that dont have much going on

You being unable to ring her is pretty criminal tbh

[cedar wyvern]

Pretty strange choice by them.

[velvet hull]

Like Ullrid?

She got a skin and buffs in future

More than forgotten ol' Ullrid

[cloud cypress]

PogU

Future is bright

[cedar wyvern]

How important is too join platoon asap?

[cloud cypress]

More daily rewards

U can join Dyo and I’s guild if u want uwu ID 104597

God himself joined he knows whats up

[cedar wyvern]

thanks

[fallen pebble]

I wanted more Sharkry dupes

[bronze bay]

ggs

[cursive scaffold]

Toughts on this comp

Wawa
Suomi
Tololo
Qiongjiu

Got Golden Memory for Qiongjiu and Samosek for Wawa and the rest is using purple weapons

[velvet hull]

[tropic forge]

tried V1 and got an Italian instead

[velvet hull]

Now to put wawa and italian in PVP defence

[cedar wyvern]

I wish I had Qiongjiu or Tololo. Standard banner update when?

[velvet hull]

Just roll 260 times

[tropic forge]

i guess that means i'll just get Mosin for 260

this is such a tacky looking gun

[tropic forge]

i'll probably put Tololo(double action, liable to kill anybody who slips against her), Sabrina, Watuk and Suomi on defense

[bronze bay]

gun and attachment skins are always going to be wack

[tropic forge]

...once i have the levels and attachments

[bronze bay]

they wont get any less wack as time goes on

[bronze bay]

[tropic forge]

i wanted to add 30 more days to monthly + get just enough to buy skin but now payment is acting up on my side

[velvet hull]

I am also missing only Tololo

[bronze bay]

gg

[velvet hull]

she cute but doesnt fit in any of my teams tho

And not planning to pull Springfield so no Hydro team for me

[bronze bay]

i'm pulling everyone regardless

100% collection

[fallen pebble]

Looks fine to me

[velvet hull]

[tropic forge]

oh right...the source that correctly predicted Machiato also predicts Daiyan next

...we shall see i guess

[velvet hull]

jesus

[cloud cypress]

DAiyan skipa for me

[tropic forge]

high mobility due to vanguard + fire damage, apparently gets disgusting at high vertebrae but >rolling for high investment vertebrae

[bronze bay]

her dupes are ridiculous

granted i use her on cn bc her insane movement makes capture point maps ridiculously easy lmao

[somber pollen]

skipping daiyan

and her sister

got more important targets to get

[cloud cypress]

Its established that my rng in this game is too bad to dream about collecting all the chars or going for dupes

Or even weapons

[bronze bay]

idk man i have average luck and i have every single character currently out in cn

yeah type 97 is kinda

not real before v3

[cedar wyvern]

Daiyan isn't that good right?

[bronze bay]

shes ok

[cedar wyvern]

If she is next I think I will go for Wa weapon instead

So I can than have samosek for Dush when she comes out

[bronze bay]

she has the usual vanguard weakness of easy to get flanked and die

[velvet hull]

Daiyan = hag = skip

[cloud cypress]

I dont have average luck ,i got rekt twice

122 pulls for suomi and 132 for wawa respectively

Average luck would be like 70-80 pulls

For each

[tropic forge]

did story, did supply and stuff

time to go sleep

[cloud cypress]

Dam

[cedar wyvern]

I got suomi and Wa v1 in around 220 pulls

[cloud cypress]

2 more copies for 30 fewer pulls than me, PogU

[cedar wyvern]

well I didn't get suomi v1

[bronze bay]

how is average luck below a single hard pity

youd be winning every 50/50

which is not average

???????

[cedar wyvern]

That's my average genshin luck

[tropic forge]

i won 3 50/50s in a row for Suomi V1 and Wawa V0, sadly didnt win the 4th one. If the next banner is Daiyan i am tempted to go for V1 but otherwise i might have to let it go

since minimal to no whaling

[cloud cypress]

O god

Hoyoverse really got ppl thinking 130 pulls is average luck

Really ruined gacha

I have not really pulled on weapons, i hear the luck is a bit better

Or maybe its just hearsay

[cedar wyvern]

I think genshin weapons have the same rate?

as chars

They just have 10 lower pity

[cloud cypress]

The listed rates are the same but usually the soft pity boost comes in abit earlier

For weapon

[cedar wyvern]

well yes, cause it's 10 lower overall pity

[cloud cypress]

At least thats what i heard, i never pulled for weapon

Cuz its not f2p tactic

[cedar wyvern]

But weapons in genshin were for the longest time giga scam

[cloud cypress]

Already hard enough to get 1 copy

[cedar wyvern]

33 percent chance to get random crap+33 percent cahnce to get a shit weapon they put on with an actually good one

Dorkwinter bros

[bronze bay]

darkwinter stays winning

get fucked haoplay

[cedar wyvern]

Imagine playing on Haoplay

[bronze bay]

if hoyo's gacha system is bad

lmao

lol.

[cedar wyvern]

I almost did cause no downlowd here in germany

But turns out direct link still works so I am guchi

[small wharf]

wait u dont need to kill boss to advance to next tier

u just need an outstanding ranking lmao

[bronze bay]

yeah just do enough damage to it

[velvet hull]

Haoplay is fucking stupid

Should never have existed

So we would just VPN to Dorkwinter

[small wharf]

thats really shitty

but also really funny

[tropic forge]

eh, for Genshin happens what made it so shitty is how initially....you need to roll 2 off-rate weapons before you can guarantee the one you want in worst case scenario. While technically the rate for rate up weapons is indeed higher at like 75/25 iirc, its...split between two rate up weapons

so, lol

[small wharf]

who was the guy who put in 2k bucks to figure that out

[velvet hull]

There's Haoplay Global
Haoplay Asia
Haoplay KR
Haoplay JP

[small wharf]

some content creator was live streaming it

people watched in horror

[cloud cypress]

Anyone knows the monthly income in this game

[velvet hull]

80pulls per month allegedly

[cedar wyvern]

idk why Mika bothered with 2 publishers

Seams like a recepy for disaster

[cloud cypress]

And a banner’s duration is 1 month yes?

[tropic forge]

21

[bronze bay]

thats just how regional publishing works sometimes

its fucked

[velvet hull]

3 weeks

[cedar wyvern]

Nothing better than having global release in exactly US

[cloud cypress]

So if 160 pulls is average luck

Or 130

How am i supposed to get every char

LOL!!!!

[cedar wyvern]

Skill issue

[velvet hull]

[cloud cypress]

Itd make sense if average luck was 70-80 then i just need to get abit luckier

[tropic forge]

thats a self control issue

[velvet hull]

Some dead months prolly where they rerun

[tropic forge]

its not like i super want every doll either

[small wharf]

snowpeak has it right with their gacha

[cedar wyvern]

The answer is obv you are not supposed to get every doll unless you super lucky or use money

[cloud cypress]

This game makes 1 dupe so powerful too

[cedar wyvern]

But well, if you care about meta you can saifly skip the low power dolls

[small wharf]

meanwhile someone in my platoon

[cedar wyvern]

If you care about waifu just don't waifu everone

[tropic forge]

i am pretty sure while the 1 dupe is powerful, its not...necessary, the game isnt THAT hard

[cloud cypress]

Its really not hard

You just need to be patient with hard content

[cedar wyvern]

I like having early good V1 vs Genshin/HSR puting the good dupes into V2 or usually v6

[cloud cypress]

Its mostly just dps check which we can solve with time

[cedar wyvern]

also makiatto v1 is obv very helpful in dps check department

[small wharf]

oh my god r u srs, tier 8 boss is the second stage for both

[cloud cypress]

Break 1 wall to see a bigger one

[cedar wyvern]

and if the next doll is Dayan it's easy to skip and save for meta

If not well it's still 40 days to get enough pulls should be dueble

[cloud cypress]

yea ill save up full 160 pulls for the next good 1

Should be enough time if i skip Daiyan

[tropic forge]

Daiyan is a fan favorite...though definitely mainly popular in CN...i believe

[small wharf]

the queen

[cloud cypress]

China dress

[velvet hull]

China hags not popular in the west

[cloud cypress]

Huge pairs

[small wharf]

the one who started it all with raymond the chad

[velvet hull]

[cedar wyvern]

Unless they put hk416 or springfield next I am going to be fine

[cloud cypress]

Its easily understandable

[tropic forge]

she has fans but its not at the scale of her fanbase in CN

[tropic forge]

eh those are clearly celebration characters

[cedar wyvern]

I don't like her desing here tbh

NC had a much better look for her

[cedar wyvern]

Yes which is why I think it's fine

Also I also really want Dush and Vector

[velvet hull]

lobby music goes hard

[small wharf]

using my B team on the first side and they are getting slaughtered

[velvet hull]

[bronze bay]

416 is definitely not showing up anytime soon

[cloud cypress]

Half year anniversary for hk416 or spingfield is very much welcome

[small wharf]

aight i guess ill use my A team for first side and try to max points

[cedar wyvern]

416 was anni unit here too right?

Or was it half anni

[bronze bay]

half anni

springfield is the anni

regardless global is gonna need to at least release ch 7 and 8

before 416

[cedar wyvern]

enough time to save. Hope ump45 will get released soon on CN

[tropic forge]

hmm, Kishiyo designed CN trad waifu ranks highly only in CN...and the one that comes to mind for that was how Sun Yat Sen did exactly that for Azur Lane. Only in CN and nowhere else

[velvet hull]

ch 7 is already out

[tropic forge]

😫 I'll do it later, I'm sleepy

[bronze bay]

im at work man

i had time to pull wachan

and thats it

[cedar wyvern]

Well chinease fleet isn't exactly well known so no suprise there

[cloud cypress]

Lets see

[tropic forge]

the only irony for that one is how Sun Yat-Sen is technically a Taiwanese ship...

[cloud cypress]

A tier dpser in china, actually not bad at all

with that design, she’ll get a lot of ppl to pull

[bronze bay]

the prc navy is 90% ships from other countries that deprecated them and gave them away

[velvet hull]

big deeps

[bronze bay]

big deeps but still on haoplay so its not real

[cloud cypress]

Iirc Daiyan and Makiato’s dorm scenes went viral even b4 global release happened

[velvet hull]

[cloud cypress]

I saw them and was like dam ok this game might actually be cooking

[velvet hull]

good marketing

[cloud cypress]

Something something targeting single men something something nuking to the birthrate

[bronze bay]

papasha is ringable

world peace achieved

[cloud cypress]

Gotta be elaborate trolling at this point that makiato isn’t

Same update and everything

[velvet hull]

Ullrid didn't get the ring either

Only Suomi did

[cloud cypress]

Younger looking character in each case is ringable

Subtle messaging

[velvet hull]

Can't let you live now that you figured it out

[cloud cypress]

Do whatever you want with that information

[fallen pebble]

Sharkry v6

[cloud cypress]

Absolutely unchained

[cloud cypress]

Wtf

This man is not bound by mortal limits

[small wharf]

that yours oats?

[fallen pebble]

ya

[small wharf]

truly the tsun tsun to open up your wallet for

[cloud cypress]

Can you send a support ticket titled y no ring

[fallen pebble]

still cheaper than GBF

[small wharf]

do you also have her weapons duped out?

[fallen pebble]

nah just 1 copy

[cloud cypress]

Hers isnt that good

[cedar wyvern]

how much did it cost you?

[fallen pebble]

had stuff saved up + $250

[small wharf]

thats like super lucky wtf

[cedar wyvern]

Not bad, Usually it's way higher for 6 dupes in genshin system

[cloud cypress]

Dafuq

Maybe add another 0

Unless ya luck ran hotter than the sun

[bronze bay]

she is currently ringable in cn

so

just gotta wait for the mica dartboard

[small wharf]

how muich did u save

[bronze bay]

me?

[small wharf]

nah oats

[bronze bay]

oh

imagine if "stuff saved up" is

3 pulls

[small wharf]

+$250 mkay

[cedar wyvern]

3 collapse peices

[fallen pebble]

100 tix + 10k collapse

[small wharf]

wtf is that luck

[bronze bay]

xd

[small wharf]

thats exactly what i had

[cloud cypress]

I dont believe it

[fallen pebble]

won 4/6 of the 50/50s

[cloud cypress]

Prolly just being modest

that still doesnt add up

[small wharf]

how early was this makiatto popping for you wtf

did u get her 20 pulls in each time dafawq

[cedar wyvern]

Prob very lucky in getting early pulls rather than going to pity

[bronze bay]

[cedar wyvern]

Or got one of those crazy triple dupe pulls people brag about

[cloud cypress]

I wouldnt know how much $250 get from the shop tbh

[cedar wyvern]

It's not impossbile tho. I got Firefly to E3 in 250 pulls myself

[fallen pebble]

[cloud cypress]

So i’ll just believe you and ur hot streak

[small wharf]

there were 2 50 dollar bundles that gave u 84 tickets

that bundle got refreshed with machiatto event

so thats 200 for 168 tickets

[fallen pebble]

oh yeah those bundles were part of the 250

so

[small wharf]

iirc, the gold weapon bundle

[cedar wyvern]

I know this is great deal by gacha standard but man, that's elden ring+dlc...

[small wharf]

also gave u 50 tickets????

[fallen pebble]

yep

[small wharf]

~~fuyck you ~~i also bought those bundles so the luck difference is massive

[cloud cypress]

Just be the 1% 4head

[fallen pebble]

since you're also in the GBF channel

[cedar wyvern]

show grids, Having all summons at that is entirely possible as ftp(s)

But yes gbf is way worse to whale on

it's 30 dollars for 10 pulls. You need 300 for 1 spark

[small wharf]

arent they much more aggressive about monetization now?

[cedar wyvern]

gbf? Well, their is powercreep, but their always was powercreep. The game is somewhat less generous than it was last year which sucks but over all it's not like they got super greedy(other than stupid collab which nobody pulled on anyway)

[cloud cypress]

Its OG gacha

So they wouldnt really count in my book

Like FGO

They get away with criminal rates

[bronze bay]

[cedar wyvern]

Gbf rates are dogshit but you are just supposed to alwyas spark so it's whatever

Still bad tho

[bronze bay]

wow

many grid

such pog

[cedar wyvern]

wait aren't landsepter got kicked out?

Or are you still playing it at 3 with medusa weapon

[fallen pebble]

I used it for Nm250 last GW

I used it as a pic to flex

[cedar wyvern]

My earth is only missing 2 medusa weapons.

And I can go titan

but well, now we know how this game made 10 million in 10 days

Cause presumably most whales aren't as lucky as Oats

[fallen pebble]

also a 10 roll in GBF is $20 now, Yen is way down

[bronze bay]

wtf

[cedar wyvern]

Gbf whales crushing yen to whale better

[small wharf]

im one of them

[bronze bay]

it was rebounding when i left japan last aug

now its back in the shitter?

[cedar wyvern]

but hey, hope it keeps being low until anni so I can get the annitix for 20 than

[bronze bay]

buying plane tickets rn

[fallen pebble]

it's been $20 since the pandemic afaik

[cedar wyvern]

Japan is in rough spot economicly since pandemic

What having uber old population does to you

[fallen pebble]

FGO global is ass since its in USD

JP is probably cheaper

[bronze bay]

fgo is ass

i spent $700 on og ereshkigal banner

didnt get ereshkigal

quit the game

[cedar wyvern]

Fgo is great example how IP and good story can hard carry the game no matter how bad the rest is

[velvet hull]

[small wharf]

i spent 300 on morgan

[velvet hull]

"Good story" hasn't been relevant for 4 years

[small wharf]

np5

[fallen pebble]

my next target is 416

[velvet hull]

Only thing keeping FGO on life support is the characters from other IPs and Saberfaces

[bronze bay]

also spent some fuckass $700

on puzzle and dragons banners

didnt get shit

[cedar wyvern]

Was greace already 4 years ago?

[velvet hull]

More than that I think

[cedar wyvern]

I also thought fairy britan was good, at least with how much people hype up oberon for his story

Didn't hear much about story since except that they killed ort

[fallen pebble]

JP vacation is cheap-ish. Buying electronics there is like 30% discount compared to the US

tax free too

[bronze bay]

ehh

tax free just means the shit is marked up

[cedar wyvern]

but you have to deal with people looking at you like a gaijin

[bronze bay]

im also unfortunate enough to be asian and know basic japanese

so no one asks me for passport for the tax free stuff

[fallen pebble]

don't give a shit about that since you're there for a few days

gaijin pass

[cedar wyvern]

i would love to go to japan one day. it's really a pretty country

[fallen pebble]

great country to be a tourist probably not live in

[cedar wyvern]

for sure. the work culture there looks so depressing

[fallen pebble]

[gusty basin]

First 10 after I had popped pity on Suomi

Lmao

Back to 80 with guarantee ig

[small wharf]

Wdym

[somber pollen]

yeah apparently im wrong and this is the def of soft pity

[cursive scaffold]

I got both of them when roling for Makiatto

[cloud cypress]

Its hoyoverse system, unfortunately got too familiar with it

Boi it took almost 3 hours to get through the new event story + supply stages

[somber pollen]

new main story is out too

[cloud cypress]

Fuck

Thats for another day then

Didnt expect it to be out so soon

something I only come to experience and appreciate in 2 is just...how Wawa holds her rifle in the refitting room since it's pretty cute compared to her professional sniper image

[small wharf]

Btw an alpha TPS gfl trailer came out

It's...rough looking though

[tropic forge]

it's a fanmade/third party thing

but officially published

[small wharf]

That would explain the roughness

Yz actually giving the fan made project his blessings

Well it needs a lot of work if it wants to compete with snowbreak

What other games is in the same space, Warframe?

[tropic forge]

it's a TPS, plenty

it's most likely not a live service gacha I feel

[cursive scaffold]

I love Bubu

[olive cypress]

Nice.

[gaunt dune]

Didn't have enough funds to get her. Spent it on Fritia sig

[small wharf]

Now behold p7

[velvet hull]

💀

[cobalt lynx]

160 is average for guarantee i hoyo 120 is average for guarantee in GFL

And GFL gives us enough pulls to do a guarantee every patch unlike hoyo

Hoyo gives us just enough pulls to incentivize us to spend minimally at least on BP and monthly

If not slightly more on the packs if desperate

GFL is also more competitive and predatory by nature in terms of oath rings and dupes actually mattering if you want to make your favorites actually good and compete properly in stuff like guild raid on top of all the extra fan service you get from oath rings and skins

Not to mention all the purple weapons suck ass and purposely too. They could have given them a weaker mainatat at least but no the difference between purple and gold is insane purely by the base and main stat difference alone ignoring the effects

[bronze bay]

everything in this game except pvp is clearable w/o dupes or sig weapons

pvp is pvp

[cobalt lynx]

In that regard hoyo at least makes amazing purple alternatives and dupes generally don't matter since the their games aren't super competitive asides from flexing

[cobalt lynx]

Not guild raid lol

You can never put a F2P friendly tag on guild raid

It's exclusively content for spenders

[bronze bay]

????????????

sure my casual f2p cn guild has no v6 turbowhales

but we can still do the content and get most of the rewards...

[velvet hull]

normalize spending

condemn f2p

[bronze bay]

how

china actively blocks all of my payment methods

i have to be a prc citizen to give them money (i am not)

[cobalt lynx]

Either way a lot of people aren't gonna think "dupes and weapons don't matter" as they won't know how easy or difficult it is to get max rewards unless they look into or someone tells them. I'm saying they're in an environment that's trying to trick them into thinking it matters when it doesn't because a lot of people surprisingly suck at this game and want easier outs that doesn't involve thinking and optimization.

At least in later content because the story doesn't get them ready for anything

They just auto through it and get used to autoing

Then they struggle

[bronze bay]

these are the same people that got filtered by the aoe tutorial

good riddancd

[cobalt lynx]

I'm just saying even tho GFL is more generous with it's pity and pulls per patch ratio it's predatory in other areas. There's no pure one's better over the other.

[bronze bay]

its a gacha and it has to make money somehow yes

[cobalt lynx]

Of course

I never meant to call it out

Just putting the differences between hoyo and GFL out there

So people don't directly compare it to hoyo and get disappointed

[bronze bay]

why would they not

mica literally ctrl+c ctrl+v mhy gacha system

[cobalt lynx]

Because the games have different design philosophy in other aspects

[tropic forge]

meanwhile

[velvet hull]

where swimsuit ullrid

[cobalt lynx]

OMG

When

[tropic forge]

well, soon in CN, but this is something that can possibly come earlier

[cobalt lynx]

Free skin or 10$?

[bronze bay]

has the sofa icon

not free most likely

[cobalt lynx]

So 10-15

Damn

Aight

Do they ever like give vouchers for skins or something to make them cheaper?

[bronze bay]

iirc no

[cobalt lynx]

The current groza one is technically on sale

[cobalt lynx]

Also I just realized I formulated this badly let me rephrase this

Skins don't matter for power

Better

Like even if hoyo is abusing maximum player retention fomo with how they plan their versions, character synergies and pulls to incentivize you to spend more at least they're not selling direct fanservice you can't access without paying

Not that it bothers me or anything just saying it's a give or take scenario

Companies need to earn money they just do it in different ways

Well I guess hoyo did start doing fan service alternate arts that come with dupes from HSR and it became even more apparent in ZZZ

To most people it doesn't matter that much since they can just look it up and it's a png but it's a big deal breaker for the hardcore simps who desire to flex their love and dedication

In GFL 2 if you really like a doll skins will rerun and generally banner reruns also happen often and on top of the generous pulls you can do it in 1-2 reruns assuming you also pulled on the initial banner

While in hoyo you would have to giga whale or skip 4-8 months worth of content to even have a chance as a light spender

In this regard I prefer GFL 2s system way more since I like simping for specific characters rather than collecting

I'm just sad both ZZZ and GFL 2 refuse to make new A ranks/4*/Purple characters

That's been extremely annoying

If this continues to become a trend just because it saves them money

That's just not cool

[velvet hull]

Fuck this ugly bitch holy shit stop spooking me

[cedar wyvern]

Have you seen Hi3 skins? Hoyo doesn't sell sexy skins in Genshin because Genshin is the christian family friendly game nothign else

[cobalt lynx]

I mean yea that's old hoyo

current hoyo is not the same as old hoyo was

they've def changed

[small wharf]

How many copies

This lass spooked me twice

[velvet hull]

3 copies of this lil shit

I despise her design and personality and everything about her

[small wharf]

Cluckcluck stonks

Well might as well use her for her AOE

[cloud cypress]

Ive survived worse gachas as f2p

Patience triumphs all

Minmaxing is less and less effective in the long run cuz at some point the difference is negligible cuz the content being pushed out isnt as often as accounts power growth

Sure there gonna be stages only big whales can clear together aka guild ones but as long as the rest can be clearable with enough time being spent on building up then it should be fine

Watch out if u miss a couple of dailies… i might catch up OWO

[velvet hull]

nyooooooooo

[cloud cypress]

Spending has been normalized since forever, i personally no longer found joy spending in gachas. Games i spent i usually quit within 2 months so by being f2p i actually end up sticking around more

At the end of the day everyone will be cucked by some form of material bottlenecking cuz it happens in every gacha, growth slows down significantly and most will decide to quit out of boredom

[tropic forge]

getting laid off...slowly but surely did a number on my spending habits

[tropic forge]

fun how i am just used to it by now

[cloud cypress]

It takes awhile

[velvet hull]

Actually

Did you see the 3rd person shooter they are making

Its scuffed as fuck tho

[small wharf]

what the maid do again

[velvet hull]

Or just ungabunga Physical Damage

Fire Colphne

[small wharf]

ah

[velvet hull]

Every skill heals, but the passive is what makes me OWO

I guess I'll farm Emergency Repair for her. Only her ult restores Stability and can only use it after 6 Support Attacks (3 turns min)

[cedar wyvern]

Well lunasia is a char from gfl1

Idk why they call her a goddess tho. An in joke?

[tropic forge]

I can tell you it's not an in joke. Explaining takes...a bit

yea i know lunasia is from gfl1 and its big spoilers but i dont recall why she called a goddess again?

PvP is extra cancer now with Makiatto on every enemy team

Pushing my skillz against AI whale teams to the limits

[velvet hull]

I got my first loss to Vepley

Then enemy Vepley just runs all the way up and throws her bomb and kills 2 of my guys

4k bomb every turn

💀

Even Suomi shields didn't last

[cloud cypress]

How the hell you got oneshot by Vepley 💀

Just move back then dam

I personally wouldnt announce losing to meme aoe teams, esp when controlled by AI

[velvet hull]

Wait till you get matched with a stacked and built Vepley

[cloud cypress]

Id have lost regardless i think

Sometimes game trolls and puts me against ppl 10k power hihger

[velvet hull]

I don't think I could have won no matter what I did

It was a 4k Vepley nade every turn

[cloud cypress]

Actually i need to check again wtf i lost to earlier

It was something insane

[velvet hull]

sorry i wasnt clear, a v6 nemesis + 30% def down is pretty strong

[gusty basin]

[small wharf]

it helps party dmg and she hits pretty hard

especially when i give her samosek

[gusty basin]

No Mosin-Nagant?

[cloud cypress]

I will build her at some point for 2nd team

[gusty basin]

Neyuh quit procrastinating grr

[cloud cypress]

Bro i cant even fully upgrade my first time

Team*

[gusty basin]

Someone wasted stam

[cloud cypress]

A bit

But they will all work out in the future

[small wharf]

i have her but shes not doing so well against bosses =/

[gusty basin]

Cuz u robbed her of her Samosek

[bronze bay]

mosin?

[gusty basin]

[cloud cypress]

2nd team will take what it can get

[bronze bay]

she doesn't scale that hard and electric as a type isnt real yet

[gusty basin]

Why they make bosses immune to everything kek

So many useless skills

[small wharf]

also no support fire unless stability broken is painful

[gusty basin]

Just break them

[small wharf]

just break 30+ stability every time

[gusty basin]

I break 15 in a single action

Sharkry op

[small wharf]

fire element always op

[cloud cypress]

Building 2nd team is still a ways in the future

Hell my first team can barely beat the level 45 tank

2nd team full of mostly scrubs aint gonna be able to do it anytime soon

Why rush the process

Unless you

[bronze bay]

even if ur the worlds biggest gigawhale ur still gated by purple cores xdd

[gusty basin]

This skill on its own will break 8 stability

2 stack Zoom in + skill bonus + 3 base

Then her action support key does 2 more

So 10 total stability damage

[velvet hull]

the undesirables

[cloud cypress]

The powercreeped

First team basically the better version of it

[gusty basin]

Who got powercrept alrdy

[velvet hull]

It'll get easier to build second team the more SSRs release

[cloud cypress]

Jsut the usual SSR > SR

[velvet hull]

No point wasting mats on a bunch of 4 stars that will be benched soon

[gusty basin]

Neyuh pls

[cloud cypress]

I aint gonna worry about building 2nd team for 1 type of content

[gusty basin]

You are just gonna ignore Boss Fight then?

[bronze bay]

you'll still want to lvl some of the 4*s to 40 anyways

[velvet hull]

Ye only some tho

[cloud cypress]

At this point its not worth it

[gusty basin]

Man

[cloud cypress]

The reward/investment ratio

[gusty basin]

I think u just want to hoard

[velvet hull]

Level 40 Krolik

[gusty basin]

[velvet hull]

Like me

[cloud cypress]

Not when my first team’s attachments are still trash

[gusty basin]

Even my Krolik

Got some love

[cloud cypress]

Nah bitch gonna stay 15 for the rest of time

[gusty basin]

Poor wabbit

So useless

[cloud cypress]

Forever angy

[gusty basin]

Only niche is translating Nemesis

[cloud cypress]

Competing with Colgate for the covetted spot in the pvp int defense team

They should keep a stat of how many times krolik/colphe gets killed in pvp

It’ll be funny

[gusty basin]

Who is colgate

Colphne?

I’ve only seen Krolik in the int squad once

It’s all Colphne

[cobalt lynx]

I mean no wonder it looks shit

this is why

[gusty basin]

Let them cook smh

[cloud cypress]

I mean they should have clarified it

Posting it without context gonna get people to judge it like an official project

[gusty basin]

Is projectnet even an official account

[bronze bay]

no

[cloud cypress]

Not hard to put Fan game in the posts to avoid all misunderstandings

Unless theyd like to give the illusion of being an official game unless being asked directly

[gusty basin]

It’s not an official account

[cloud cypress]

Ppl would be praising them

If they stated fan game in the first place

Now they’re getting flamed for no reason cuz they’re judging it with official standards

The posts u saw recently are the ones where they had to clarify things

This one is the initial post

They def had official tone to it

[gusty basin]

You don’t judge a half-baked cake…. Look at the bottom right corner

Literally says in the vid its not final quality

[cloud cypress]

Thats why ppl brought up so many questions

[gusty basin]

So ask but don’t be an asshat just cuz u expected more

[cloud cypress]

Why not just state fan game project in that post? They’d be getting praises

Why act like an official release in the work

And get flamed to hell

[gusty basin]

I’d flame the flamers

For being toxic pieces of shit

[cloud cypress]

Gacha players not toxic?

[gusty basin]

[cloud cypress]

Main game: a gacha game that has 30 min daily routine top in the end game

Those ppl dont got anything else to do afterwards

So they go on social medias to shitpost

[gusty basin]

I mean you can shitpost without also being a piece of shit in the process

But nobody told them that

[cloud cypress]

Keyword being main game

They feel passionate about it, enough to take things too seriously

[gusty basin]

I feel very passionately that your game is dogshit

[cloud cypress]

Thankfully this game seems to be self contained, for now

I dont see much fighting with other communities, mostly ppl are just posting horny or bullying colgate memes

[gusty basin]

Ofc

Horny game is horny

It takes so much more effort to win
