this is so noice
i dont have to worry about spending it every day

honest lark
this got complicated all of a sudden <:pepega:818462972628303872>
Nice to see someone slowly enjoying the game
clear phoenix
the ferrium shortage in wuling drives me insane smh
eternal pike
some quests try to make me care for kids NPCs
why would i care if they are not working force
@supple sundial idk what you smoking
Antal > Ake even overworld for me
enemies never stugger to get her chain off
they die before that
shes just there to look cute

Temporarily paused story now that i properly reached Wuling. Gonna go back and fully max out Valley IV before continuing. Im skipping at least the next 2 banners since idk what comes after Yvonne

I'm hoping for Rossi

All the characters I'm hoping for wont happen till at least half anni so I'm chilling. Looking forward to simply seeing how things progress
fast root
I just entered the 2nd region so idk how many characters are in the queue to be playable
west skiff
most of my favourite AK operators are not infected, it's so over for me 
leaden cloud
I think any AK op can get ported, not just infected ones. The ones in Endfield arent the originals anyway, so the whole child of oripathy thing doesnt have any implications for who could be mad playable
west skiff
i though that the ones that came back are like replicas made from originium due to infection no?
fast root
Think so.
leaden cloud
i though that the ones that came back are like replicas made from originium due ...
Just went a triple fact checked myself. They're made from the information stored in originium (you remember what it is from AK, basically just physically manifested data).
So from my understanding, anyone that has ever been in the presence of originium can show up, infected or not. Since the 'clone' is made from stored data and not like a broken off Oripathy super tumor
Kinda like how the current Grand Magistrate of Wuling ||is Green Nian, and she was never infected||

found only 1 spot in that area that could fit power and a zip

also this etch system for weapons is kinda confusing my small brain
its korean rpj system

from what i grasped
queen crow
also this etch system for weapons is kinda confusing my small brain
find the base that you want
then just upgrade it
clear phoenix
its korean rpj system

idk what that means tbh
and that's the other thing, i dont even know what bases are best
queen crow
the 3 stats of your weapon
clear phoenix
guess im going to prydwyn or something
eternal pike
you increase stats
but with increases there is chance for your upgrade to fail
and resourses burn
clear phoenix
isn't the base stats random
or is there only 1 outcome i want for the base
ive done a couple runs of them but i cant tell yet
eternal pike
i didnt get too deep
just saw basic intro
queen crow
so for laevs weapon you want an int/attack/twilight base
eternal pike
you find base that fits your operator first right?
then grade it up with chance to fail
clear phoenix
eternal pike
thats instead of artifacts/relics/echoes endgame optimisation basically
you level your char
you upgrade skills
you get them gear from automation
you bother with this shit afterwards
thats final tuning
queen crow
thats what this screen is about
clear phoenix
the part i really am confused on is when you're engraving them, where it has chance to fail
eternal pike

the higher the skill level the higher the chance of failing
eternal pike
compared to dmg% and crit
clear phoenix
i think i gotta find a goo goo ga ga guide on it
queen crow
compared to dmg% and crit
you just go with whatever weapon youre using
queen crow
Look at the 3 stats of your weapon
Find the essence encounter which can drop them (each encounter will have "compatible weapons" to make it easier)
slam your head against a wall and randomly try to get your "BASE" essence or use a ticket to somewhat deterministically get it
upgrade your BASE essence by using FODDER essence that you would have picked up in those same fights
clear phoenix
i get half of it
just lemme find some boosted gacha youtuber who's talking about it to spoonfeed the part im worried about
eternal pike
you sink stamina
you get orbs
you try find orbs with same stats as your wep
you feed orbs to wep
if many orbs fed they might not upgrade
clear phoenix
you guys are beating your heads against a wall rn
clear phoenix
ok i think i get it
the only thing im wondering is if there's a limit on how much you can etch
eternal pike
its like +9 no?
clear phoenix
im guessing i can only increase the thing up to the number of notches that my weapon can slot?
but im free to keep trying until i hit the cap right
eternal pike
ask Road for more details
i only grasp basics
and decided that last stage of optimisation
aint doing it now
clear phoenix
if all you need is for you base to have the 3 main stats you want then like
i think it's fine
queen crow
im guessing i can only increase the thing up to the number of notches that my we...
9 is max yeah
or was it 6
yeah 6
clear phoenix
but there's no limit of i can only enhance like 4 times total across the board
queen crow
or was it 7 
queen crow
i believe thats how it works but still trying to get my base essence
laevatains is only from wuling 
makes it annoying
clear phoenix
yeah
i need hers too
ok i think i get it then, unless im jebaiting myself
mostly i was worried about a cap and having to like minmax which stat i upgrade
like a cap of i can only enhance 3 times total sort of thing
clear phoenix
i was thinkign at first those tickets would get consumed for a free reward claim instead
but no
pay sanity and ticket smh
eternal pike
do you need all 3 to be your stat?
queen crow
yeah
sharp yarrow
You can feed other essences in after though
queen crow
you can use other ones in the meantime just for some stat bonuses
but ultimately you only want to invest in a 3/3 essence
sharp yarrow
So once you roll the right one its going to become your BiS forever
queen crow
because of the costs
wuling is a really bad one though because theres like 0 overlap in weapons
but its the ONLY one that has laevatains combination
queen crow
i need to go over things since i max expanded/depot everything
just been super lazy
clear phoenix
the thing is like
im not sure what else to make in wuling
mostly cause of resource shortage
queen crow
not really much
clear phoenix
i have a syringe setup going but there's not enough ferrium to make a second setup
despite me having space
clear phoenix
my battery farm and the originium cube gel is all that's really going on
i did have the gear farm going a bit but i have enough parts for a while so i swapped it out
just doing two batterys now
queen crow
also stock recharges in 3ish days
so need to buy all the engraving tickets before them 
queen crow
i think valley 4 tickets were like 16 million total or something
clear phoenix
i have all my stuff maxed on upgrades so i may as well go for broke
fast root
I'm already starting to break
I can't handle this being 100+ years in the future
I miss Jessica
I miss Myrtle
I miss KOKODAYO

Pretty sure none of them were

everyone will be Reconvener

if they werent, you're not getting a reconvener

Don't talk about money

Endeared me to her very strongly

she's apparently here
eternal pike
thats just vampire in a hat
clear phoenix
so we might see her

warfarin is special though cause she's probably the only character we're gonna see from terra that we know
aside from M3 if she's monst3r

I still want to know what's up with Dolly
queen crow
just a chill pink sheep
also google says its immortal
its a beast lord or something
fast root
But I mean what's it's deal with new Eyja
queen crow
maybe it has a thing for sheep girls
fast root
OG Eyja has a whole arc about meeting Dolly, complete with gaslighting, emotional buildup, and active volcanos
queen crow
might be in her file
fast root
It has ties to her family so it's not surprising its here but I want context
queen crow
fast root
BUT I DON'T KNOW HOW TO READ
queen crow
who needs to read
just feed it into chatgpt
Ardelia meets Mr. Dolly shortly after she joins Endfield, during her first visit to a Blight-ravaged sector of Talos-II.
Sheâs staying at a survivorsâ shelter helping the wounded, and thatâs whenâafter night fallsâMr. Dolly suddenly appears in the shelter and starts causing harmless chaos (knocking things over, darting between beds, startling nurses and kids). Ardelia chases it into an old break room, uncovers a dusty piano, and starts playingâwhile Mr. Dolly settles nearby and the children gather around it. That moment is basically the start of their bond: Dolly shows up in the worst place, turns the mood, and Ardelia connects with people through music instead of empty sympathy.
fast root
He's just an invisible reality-warping immortal who happens to really like Eyjafjalla and her family
Enjoys gaslighting and lighthearted partying
But if he's here it does mean others like him are fair game to be here as well
So we can keep believing in Emporer
Arknights lore is just some of the wildest shit out there
Even more than most characters I just wanna see the return of the lore elements
west skiff
All i want is Tupac to be playable in Endfield đ
clear phoenix
the only lore i need is seeing how endmin eats their ramen instant noodle packs
eternal pike
does it prove whos || clone they are? Pristess or Doctor? ||
tender fable
appearently they're having a maintenance today to address some issues
clear phoenix
i doubt we'll hear about gacha until at least 1.1 if people are waiting on that
clear phoenix
i dont know that lore
do you know how doctor eats instant ramen
eternal pike
if i eat instant noodles
i fry egg and add it in
also some green onions
and may be mayo

Yeah I was reading different logs and stuff. I talked about it earlier, but it seems like the Ops ported over dont specifically need to have been infected in AK from how they describe the process. Originium and Oripathy are two completely different things, with this new Gen stemming from Originium itself
clear phoenix
that's a completely different thing than the warf thing
but hey if that means i still have a chance at mosty
fast root
Warfarin is just a hag
leaden cloud
I dont think Warf is on Talos. Not because anything disproving her presence has happened, but simply cause if she is there and active Hyper has done a terrible job of conveying that in these first 1.5 regions
Which considering her role
I imagine they'd have put some extra hutzpa to get her at least directly in contact with us asap
clear phoenix
they might not be as big as you think
since they werent even involved in that meeting of the minds we have before wuling
leaden cloud
If she's branch lead, and endmin is ||some crazy ultra secret weapon to fix things when shit goes too far awry||, it genuinely doesnt make a lick of sense that she wouldnt have at least had a short digital checkup with us at this point
Especially considering how much shit has happened
Thats just basic sense, as someone that does have a similar but not as prestigious job irl
If im Warf, the moment any of the ||Aether rift|| stuff happens im reaching out to Endmins last known point of contact
clear phoenix
I mean did we announce to the world we're back
I don't think we did, I think people just started finding out because people were like holy shit the endmin is here and started telling people
and we specifically reached out (perlica did) to those 3 nations or whatever you wanna classify them as
so Perlica left them out
clear phoenix
Let's just wait and see what happens when RI does introduce themselves

you realize its not just about her combo its about her heat app on skill to stack surtr passive faster right? antal wont give her a stack on skill
queen crow
we already have contact with them im sure
some of the operators are from there
like Snowshine
leaden cloud
That's not how Warf's position operates. She's not a random employee, even taking endmin out of the equation it's her job to keep tabs on everything. When any of the bad stuff happens, Warf is supposed to have sitreps and site contact
clear phoenix
yeah they're on loan or whatever but we still don't know our full relation with them
Yeah but Warf is also a goober, who knows what the fuck she's up to
i give benefit of the doubt until they do something super stupid
leaden cloud
Well thats simply fanon tbf. She's more of a weirdo than a goof, but not the fun goofy kind of weirdo.

She's more likely to hear we have amnesia and get way too excited to medically fuck with us in vain of figuring out why amnesia and how to fix amnesia
But also 150 years of punished warf watching people die
May just be jaded
That'd be sad
leaden cloud
Im waiting for anni when Green ||Nian|| becomes playable.
Her and Talulah clone are my two big saves rn
clear phoenix
who the fuck is the green one you keep mentioning
also why do you keep spoiling it that name from ak 1 anyway
leaden cloud
True I should unironically spoil green instead
clear phoenix
im not sure who you're referencing with the green one
unless it's just one of the other sisters
i only know up to ling though
leaden cloud
The Grand Magistrate. She's just green, serious Nian with lightning. Exact same body as well as eye color and shadow
leaden cloud
unless it's just one of the other sisters
Nian was the first Sui introduced
Also my fav
clear phoenix
yeah wheich is why im confused that you kept saying green one

ain't nothing like nian, cause nian was cool
west skiff

leaden cloud
Idr her name, just that shes the grand magistrate of wuling
clear phoenix
yeah so the one i mentioned
west skiff
compared to all the other reconviners she changed too much
clear phoenix
yeah but she's not nian coded

west skiff
i mean...anyone can just buy red eyeshadow
leaden cloud
clear phoenix
keep pushing it on me that i should care about that woman
west skiff
chen isn't a reconviner she is a decendant
leaden cloud
The Sui are weird in general. Odds are they cant even be reconveners anyway tbh, because of how they are
Fragments of a Fernamut and whatnot
Might be a descendant lowkey
Shes def sui coded in general
clear phoenix
ehhhh
i dunno about that
but if you like her then save for her that's all that matters
leaden cloud
Idk what youre unsure of, so I'm gonna spout some topical lore for the people in the back.
The Sui are effectively immune to Oripathy due to them not being the same kind of living being as anything else in the original AK world. They're quite literally fragments of a god, and exist more closely tied to literal magic than Originium in general
They also all have really good designs
queen crow

HSR of all games broke the curse. For CNY we're getting another Xianzhou general for the banner, but we're not touching any of the space ships

The culture just has a lot of focus on "tradition" and I've hated that word since I was 7
stray brook
The HSRfication of ZZZ has been ongoing for a while now
Hope 3.0 remedies it
Unlike HSR 3.0 who doubled down on powercreep
fast root
I don't think ZZZ will be slowing down on powercreep given the two recent patches
And YSG team isn't even at full power yet
stray brook
No but main issue with HSR is how strong dupes are
E2 being twice as strong as the E0 version is so fucking dumb
Max dupe surtr is only like 50% better than base
clear phoenix
i'm glad, i dont want dupes to make me feel like I'm missing out on half my character
stray brook
Zzz is roughly 25% stronger per dupe
clear phoenix
for endfield
stray brook
Which is still too much but it's manageable
stray brook
i'm glad, i dont want dupes to make me feel like I'm missing out on half my char...
Especially HSR dupes that fix core kit kneecaps
Like aglaea
'pull e1 or your char is trash' type shit
All started with acheron being crippled as fuck without her lightcone really

I'm always terrified of games doing that now
HYV games are too successful
And the market is just desperate to emulate them
stray brook
They rest way too much on overinvested playerbases
clear phoenix
i really dont wanna have us emulating their shit here
everyone already mad we havent emulated their pity system lmao
stray brook
It's fucking insane when I read reddit takes from dumbasses upset over how endfield doesnt emulate a hoyo game
Or how the gacha is supposedly 'worse'
When it's objectively better
If you aren't some impulsive gamba troglodyte
clear phoenix
but they are
stray brook
120 guarantee vs hoyo's 160
'free' weapon banner
losing coinflip can actually be a net positive
Yes, you aren't guaranteed on second coinflip but thats the only downside
eternal pike
main gripe for 120 garantee is its reset
stray brook
With no pity carryover
fast root
No pity carryover is basically the entirety of my gripes
stray brook
When you do lose coinflip though, you still get a weapon 10 pull
fast root
Aside from the gripes I have with gacha as a concept
stray brook
No pity carryover is basically the entirety of my gripes
Then just dont pull unless you have 120 prepared
eternal pike
im so used to throw 10 on evey banner
fast root
But we have tickets that expire
eternal pike
just to see if i sac
stray brook
im so used to throw 10 on evey banner
They do give you a freebie 10 pull on new banner though
eternal pike
yeah
eternal pike
expired tickets are fake tickets
eternal pike
if you pulled 40 on previous
stray brook
I pulled enough to get dossier for the upcoming banner
hypergryphs idea is that since you get 10 free you are compelled to pull for more
Can't save the dossier
eternal pike
its overly complicated
its like they tried to sit on two chairs
stray brook
It's definitely not without flaws
But overall I think its a net positive system for most players
fast root
I'm glad they're at least trying a new formula
stray brook
Unless you are a dupe puller

cos i didnt know pity dosent carry over
and probably wont get Leavi wep
and just get BPs
i shouldt basically rolled at all
old gorge
wat?
i did say going to 240 and only getting p3 baevatain felt off
buuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttt

its significantly cheaper than being a mhy whale
@eternal pike i think this gacha rate is better for me
clear phoenix
also me being fucked with wep banner

the weapon banner is staying for 2 more banners i think

there's 1 thing i can think of they can do

stray brook
I like weapons showing visually
I dont, actually
not in this games case at least
It severely hampers their design choices
AK has tons of unconventional weapons that cant be done here because they're restricted to 5 weapon types

ZZZ did it a million times better with sig w-engines just giving you some visual flair or effects on the character like glowing hair
But doesn't restrict weapon types

I think like I said there's potential to give some characters more unique weapons if they just slot the arts core into it and make them a core user
but i wouldn't have minded a system like zzz's weapon thing

What's all this about?
you can use thermal power banks to jump out of bounds into parts of the map you're not supposed to be in
and you can build shit there
for example, with a thermal bank
it should be possible to get ontop of this building, it sounds dumb but many are abusing it

Yeah

The Genshin drama with Jinx and Tuner like 5+ years ago basically ruined Tectone forever for me
fast root
Basically started a fight about Zhongli. He claimed he was actually good and his argument was basically "what if they're playing on mobile where it's hard to dodge and have multiple Constellations"
Basically his fanbase harassed them until they left the game
And he made a giant show of not apologizing and then played the pity card
He claimed he just wanted friends and that once he was so lonely he made friends with a rock at some point in there
fast root
We have Tectone wannabes and copycats unfortunately
I distinctly remember Pokke in HSR
Could have been a decent CC but wanted to be Tectone so badly

No pity carryover is basically the entirety of my gripes
Idk if this was ever touched on again, just woke up to go to work, but it does. Just halfsies. The game remembers what summon you were to the next soft pity (85), and keeps you going from there. The only thing that does reset is the 120 hard guarantee.
So if you end a banner at 80 pulls and get nothing, when you do your free multi (10 tickets for 3 multis) on the next banner you'll instantly get a 6*
