[quick hinge]

That's a hero

Mines a skin

[timber cipher]

Yea sorry that is limited off to the cool kids and we're not invited

[timber cipher]

I wouldn't tho anyways

But having mehira skin actually baited me a bit more into building her first instead of audrae

[quick hinge]

[timber cipher]

But u also cant get lyca skin

[quick hinge]

[timber cipher]

are all skins limited off in companions or what

[quick hinge]

Mhm : /

Even mishka skin was $100

[timber cipher]

[quick hinge]

[timber cipher]

I mean mishka skin came as extra

for a good bundle

[quick hinge]

Shem skin was event limited aswell

[timber cipher]

ice shem looks kinda weird tho so thats fine

[quick hinge]

I didn't like it

So

No skin

[timber cipher]

i mean the snowstorm animation is nice

[quick hinge]

Makes her look better

[timber cipher]

but all other stuff on her is mhh

[quick hinge]

Got this today

[opaque flume]

Poor

[timber cipher]

i want faction gear

[quick hinge]

Poor

[timber cipher]

like i got so many non faction gear pulls

[quick hinge]

[timber cipher]

[quick hinge]

There is an issue here

[quick hinge]

Oh

Thats

Uh

M8

[timber cipher]

trish is actually really badge

[opaque flume]

I don't trust the wealth management of anyone with Arthur

[timber cipher]

[quick hinge]

Poor

[opaque flume]

At some point, it's generational

[quick hinge]

Tbf

I bought 2 pieces

For $100

[timber cipher]

[quick hinge]

She looks nice though

[timber cipher]

i went on most banners not further than 360

so sometimes rough

[opaque flume]

Does Trish not have engraving effect at all?

Mine is only m

[quick hinge]

The perks of maxing new heroes

[timber cipher]

divinity

[quick hinge]

[timber cipher]

its called

[opaque flume]

But does her divinity include her engraving effect

[quick hinge]

No

Go away

[timber cipher]

part of it

[opaque flume]

Which part

[civic verge]

https://tenor.com/view/smug-gif-21978756

[quick hinge]

Stop swiping

[opaque flume]

Those look like her furniture effects

[timber cipher]

furniture only has 2 effects no? 3f and 9f?

[opaque flume]

I don't make the rules

[timber cipher]

she doesnt have the aBaden effect some ppl from classic say

if u mean that engraving effect

[quick hinge]

Enough afk for me

Time for madoka

[timber cipher]

[quick hinge]

[timber cipher]

will prob watch a video and go back to reddit and try understanding classic a bit more to compare

[opaque flume]

I think a3 is her e60 maybe

Sad no summon boost effect

[civic verge]

Maduka Meguca

[timber cipher]

yes i believe so

[quick hinge]

[quick hinge]

Madoka

[opaque flume]

Dude is just playing Arena at this point

[quick hinge]

[timber cipher]

stage pushing on auto battle

[civic verge]

https://wiki.puella-magi.net/Meduka_meguca

[quick hinge]

That name is wrong

[civic verge]

Read the wiki

[opaque flume]

We don't push stages anymore on < S10

It's corny

[quick hinge]

Madoka

[eternal drum]

Ma dookie

[quick hinge]

[quick hinge]

Lazy

[civic verge]

You’re too young to have seen those parody videos

[quick hinge]

[opaque flume]

S9 is all about AFK

[timber cipher]

will do a short bit of classic and then prob sleep a bit

so early gn8 from me

[opaque flume]

Work smarter not harder

[quick hinge]

Not smarter

That's lazier

[opaque flume]

Yup, playing an idle game all day is the definition of productive and hardworking

[quick hinge]

[opaque flume]

You're right

[quick hinge]

Well yes

Bc you're pushing

For max resources

?

I'm further then 90% of others

[opaque flume]

Is that the story you'll tell your grandkids?

Dang only 90%

That's lazy

[quick hinge]

Do u just call everyone poor

[opaque flume]

Bro what

[quick hinge]

First msg u sent u called me poor

[opaque flume]

You are poor

[quick hinge]

[opaque flume]

Not even 5* Arthur is crazy

His 5* is a huge buff

[quick hinge]

He's 5* tmr

[opaque flume]

Why not today

Paycheck to paycheck?

[quick hinge]

Bc I have no reason to?

[opaque flume]

Doesn't sound like you're pushing very hard

[quick hinge]

?

[opaque flume]

By this time tomorrow, you'll only be ahead of 80%

[civic verge]

Kasumi has no troll detector at all. It’s cus they’re so young

[quick hinge]

Kasumi how old

[quick hinge]

Mf's first msg was calling someone poor

Wild

[opaque flume]

No just you

[quick hinge]

That's even worse

[opaque flume]

What's the most expensive thing you own

[quick hinge]

My house

[slow umbra]

I am shook by this lol

[opaque flume]

What's your mortgage balance

[quick hinge]

At 19 I own my house and am able to spend $70k on gachas in 3 months

Although 20 tmr

[quick hinge]

[opaque flume]

I'm only 18 and I own 3 houses and a dog lol

[quick hinge]

[slow umbra]

I remembered you mentioned b day 🙂

[quick hinge]

[slow umbra]

happy early b day if I'm off Kasu ❤️

[quick hinge]

Going out to eat with family

[opaque flume]

I have 12 camels

[quick hinge]

[opaque flume]

Just for my housekeepers to get around the property

There's 18 housekeepers, so sometimes they fight and have to go to the hospital

Because they all want a camel!

[slow umbra]

do u sleep kasu

[opaque flume]

Kasumi, you remind me of those camels

[civic verge]

I work from home so.. I mess with my phone all day while working

[quick hinge]

Normally 5hrs or so

[slow umbra]

so do I but damn you guys are dedicated

[quick hinge]

Yours counts background?

[slow umbra]

I travel a lot for work so thats usually when i am active

[quick hinge]

Just slightly

[slow umbra]

100 hr T.T

[civic verge]

That was my activity just for today

[opaque flume]

I don't even own a smartphone

[quick hinge]

Is it nice?

Traveling wise

[opaque flume]

I thought you meant is it nice having a job

It's not

[civic verge]

I hate working

All I do is work

[opaque flume]

I should make AI generated Tik toks indtead

[slow umbra]

no its awful. The traveling is not as nice as people might think. It was fun the first year. Then the second and third just drain you

[slow umbra]

Now when I'm at on sites, I just want to go back to my hotel and do nothing

[quick hinge]

Sounds about right

[slow umbra]

Because you still have to finish your actual work on top of client things traveling

(I work with enterprise systems + data)

[civic verge]

My dream job is being paid to exist on the beach

[slow umbra]

thats me in may 🙂

using 3 weeks of PTO to peace out

[civic verge]

Oooo grats 💕

Enjoy it

[slow umbra]

hopefully my guilds won't fall apart because I plan on being somewhat unplugged

[slow umbra]

Ty! I try to take one long break in addition to the Holiday (dec-Jan) one i take

This year is going to be a nice trip so excited to get away (I'm based in Midwest US - so weather is awful)

[civic verge]

I grew up in Indiana oh how I know the struggle. You could have rainstorms, tornados, hail, and snow all at the same time

[slow umbra]

Im a buffalo hometown girlie so the weather doesn't phase me

just the annual seasonal depression from the lack of sun yk lol

[slow umbra]

you get it then lol

[civic verge]

YUP. It was awful. Then summers be way too hot and humid too

[slow umbra]

yea and my allergies always acting up T.T

chicago is nice though

[civic verge]

💯 ‼️

[slow umbra]

I like it better than my last city

[civic verge]

I had an aunt live up in Gurnee, it’s nice over there

[low mulch]

Hi

[slow umbra]

oh thats a bit north of where I am but nice area. If i settle down here I'll probably buy/build near there

would be nice to be close to the water

[frigid willow]

I had it

[slow umbra]

@pine sable re:zero s1 was actually quite good.

[quick hinge]

Oh

[slow umbra]

I forget why i dropped it

[quick hinge]

First 50 then?

[slow umbra]

Has anybody bothered building zikis

[quick hinge]

Tank

5* sig 30

[civic verge]

Re: Zero season 2 is really good too!

Season 3 Is out now but I wasn’t pulled in like the first two seasons

[slow umbra]

O.O more to look forward to

Subaru kinda sucks but I assume he becomes less insufferable

[civic verge]

I swear his character development arc is the entire series but yes he gets better

[slow umbra]

I had to take a short break after the petelguese ep

[civic verge]

Don’t blame u on that

[frigid willow]

Top 3 in my server

[low mulch]

which tactic should I choose

[frigid willow]

4th

[lusty plank]

I’ve still never seen someone with an ascended Mezoth

I think I’ve seen every other hero at ascended by now except him

[quick hinge]

[timber cipher]

How tf did i win that in classic btw

i dont understand classic

[civic verge]

LMAO

[pine sable]

all 3 seasons are so good imo but opinions arent all the same so maybe u didnt like them

[quick hinge]

His tree is lvl 0

[pine sable]

and yes felix is a guy lol @slow umbra

[timber cipher]

but still he highborn woked me out of the game

[pine sable]

wtf is even going on here lmaooo

[timber cipher]

he did like 10x my damage

i did like 0 dmg to him

[timber cipher]

i have 0 animations btw that are all the enemies that do that

[pine sable]

i have no clue what any of these heroes do its just a cluster fck for me haha

[timber cipher]

like just to show you my alna did 30m damage she didnt carry that

[timber cipher]

same

like i need a phd to understand what went wrong for the enemy

ig tree and pet

[pine sable]

need to study that shit for 10 yrs and then u can start understanding maybe 1% of what happening

[timber cipher]

am trying maybe it'll help me be a bit better and prepared in companions aswell

[pine sable]

like yeah his tree is lv0 for some reason but ur "assassin creed character" (idek how tf he got there) was basically useless lmao

also why are there red stars and white stars and yellow and orange and "idek what color to call that" stars what does that even mean

[timber cipher]

[pine sable]

and why am i becoming an interior design master and architect for heroes so they do better shit

what kinda concept is that

[timber cipher]

white stars is engraving +80
red stars engraving +60
orange stars +30
and yellow +0

and then they have for 3f 9f those red thingies below the +30

and then for +40 they have the big +30

idk nothing else

[pine sable]

what are engravings? and what the difference to furniture?

[timber cipher]

engravings and furniture is what companion has in divinity

[pine sable]

why is there so many extra steps for everything in classic lol

[timber cipher]

furniture is like a currency that came before engravings to do the same as SI item

and engravings is the same as furniture and SI item just again more currency and more unlocked skills

[pine sable]

more stuff u need to pay for

very smart i see

[timber cipher]

because it was developed and bloated over the time i left after engraving bc people were spamming maxing engraving on heroes was 100k$

and i mean now ppl from classic are spamming in here sometimes classic good > companion bad

because they have resource generation modes in classic so that they need to f2p for 4 months to unlock a p2w hero

and i kind to make a picture out of it for myself

[pine sable]

sounds pretty ass ngl

[timber cipher]

or idk what you'd called

call it*

like my own thought

i wont say whos right or wrong but i enjoy companions

my classic account is from 2019-2020 or 2021 idk

[pine sable]

idk classic is doing too much, if they simplified it like in companions it would be better but then they would have less shit people could spend their money on so ig that never happens haha

companions way more chill and less p2w for now but this arthur shit is basically just testing the waters fs

[frigid willow]

Idk about less p2w with the last patch

[pine sable]

i started playing cos of the overlord event i cant lie

[lusty plank]

Draconians + collections = over for classic

[pine sable]

yeah i heard lots of people said fck this after they added dragons

[frigid willow]

Don’t forget about pets

[lusty plank]

I’ve been playing classic since 2019 (you can see my server join date lol), yet I find myself opening companions more often

[pine sable]

yeah arthur is def a social experiment

[lusty plank]

Pets are fine once you get to res 18

And they’re not rly rng dependent

[frigid willow]

Testing is

Us

[frigid willow]

How many years that can take as a f2p

[timber cipher]

i think the main issue that people dont induldge in is that classic has resource generation modes

while companions has atm no such stuff

and i give companions the same time as classic

like give them some time to cook and maybe lilith will cook

because divinity is so simplified and nice

[lusty plank]

Like 1.5 💀

[frigid willow]

Also you need to completely ignore other rewards in event and pick only pet bait for reso 18

[frigid willow]

Good sistem

[lusty plank]

Realistically, engravings were the beginning of Lilith’s shitty updates

[frigid willow]

They could have make it like companion

[lusty plank]

But ppl got used to them

I remember the great “Engraveyard” protests of 2021

[pine sable]

gotta see what they doing with it i think classic def has some good stuff as well but its so overloaded if u tryna start

[pine sable]

thats a hilarious name lmao

[frigid willow]

Engraving was crazy because how hard was to achieve 80, even 60

[pine sable]

[frigid willow]

And people were mad because whales again had a new advantage

[lusty plank]

Whales always have an advantage

It’s how a company needs to generate revenue

No whaling = no game

[pine sable]

money wins

as always

[lusty plank]

Well ppl at Lilith ultimately gotta live, and they wanna live well

Gotta milk every buck

[pine sable]

thats just how it is but some love for the game would be great as well they definetly make more money if they listen to the community a bit more and keep doing it for the long run

[lusty plank]

No microtransaction/p2w game will allow a f2p to surpass a big spender

It’s how it is

[frigid willow]

Money wins but you need a balance you know

[pine sable]

if its not for cosmetics that fund the game 100% not yeah

[lusty plank]

Idk how much they care about AFK Arena as a whole. This is the game’s 6th year, the cash cow phase passed like 3 years ago

They’re just riding it till they inevitably shut it down

I don’t think they care about pleasing the playerbase when their income is from the 1% that will buy whatever they release

Even if it’s a $300 elite hero

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[pine sable]

true

[frigid willow]

If you look in Reddit at every power up system Lilith introduced, nothing was good lol

[lusty plank]

Yes but people keep whaling regardless

That small minority is who Lilith cares about

If they buy then it’s ok, if it ain’t broke don’t fix it type shit

Business 101

[frigid willow]

Whales dictate the state of games nowadays

If we look at every company nowadays, everyone is after money

[lusty plank]

This game is all or nothing, no point in spending unless you can spend thousands a month

[frigid willow]

Even single player games have a battle pass

[lusty plank]

Only way to truly be competitive

Once you stop spending for a while u start to fall behind

[frigid willow]

I realised this late, if you want to spend..you can’t stop and be good

[lusty plank]

I lowkey regret spending $600 cause I still feel like a f2p

[frigid willow]

You have to consistently spend

[lusty plank]

I didn’t really change anything for me

[frigid willow]

Same here

[lusty plank]

You have to spend $600 every month for years to actually feel strong

And to play for many years

[frigid willow]

Everyweeks I fall behind in ranks

[lusty plank]

That’s how old players on classic have every awakened ascended

And even they can’t afford ascended draconians

Only the players that spend $5000/mo can

[lusty plank]

If you stop spending you might as well just go f2p

Use it or lose it basically

Can’t afford to stop spending and then start again after a couple of months unless you’re a bonafide millionaire

[frigid willow]

I stopped spending a month ago and I already feel it

[timber cipher]

I mean they dropped the xp event

[lusty plank]

I never spent a lot to begin with, in classic back in 2019 i spent a couple hundred in my first month and realized it was a waste

[frigid willow]

I’m not supporting shit like this

[timber cipher]

and made xp be the most rewarding resource

so its kinda devious

but it is what it is because every other f2p is also bleeding out

[lusty plank]

If I spend now I only buy the $5 ticket and nothing more

[frigid willow]

Supporting shit like this makes them release shit like this again and again

[lusty plank]

Or some random $1 deal

[timber cipher]

so basically nobody is gaining

[lusty plank]

It’s not even about not having money, it’s just pointless cause you have to spend in a consistent manner every month

To stay at the top

[lusty plank]

Even you missed out on that Talene deal cause you were f2p

That’s what I meant

[timber cipher]

i think so to and wont gaze further atm

[frigid willow]

Wonder if they release a game with only cosmetics, how many players will that game have

[timber cipher]

Yep

[lusty plank]

Once you miss something in the game as a spender it becomes annoying later

Cause they don’t give many chances

[frigid willow]

After you spend 500 in Arthur “event”

[lusty plank]

I’m only playing for my own enjoyment, staying in my own lane

I push whenever I want to

[frigid willow]

I gave up too

Just playin to fill some time

[timber cipher]

Yea because im in a phase where im comparing classic and companions a bit and am enjoying companions atm way more

but im like playing for myself

[lusty plank]

I don’t even need to dedicate more than 15min every day

It’s perfect for an afk game

[lusty plank]

Companions is definitely cheaper to feel like a “God” in

But that’s mostly cause of the stupid locked servers

They need to scrap all of that and make it like classic

Then the true whales and krakens will show themselves

[frigid willow]

I’m enjoying moco rn

[lusty plank]

They also need to add the damn VIP rewards

[timber cipher]

kinda that'd be all some nice stuff

[lusty plank]

It’s not even that, literally basic gacha 101 stuff

[timber cipher]

its not the arthur event for me its the xp event

[lusty plank]

Every gacha has a VIP system

Even the main game has it

[timber cipher]

skipped the 325-360 drought

[lusty plank]

They started companions as an obvious trap to lure in ppl as a f2p chill game

Then once it gained traction they started making it like classic

[frigid willow]

They gave whales what they wanted. Exp

[lusty plank]

The fact we don’t have a new awakened is more than enough proof

[frigid willow]

And f2p got nothing

[timber cipher]

because xp is a rare resource atm

might be that it wont be - but the earlier im high level, the more level advantage i can keep - since we do have little resources

is devious but it is what it is

[lusty plank]

They don’t want ppl having S tier heroes for doing nothing

[frigid willow]

We don’t because they are free

If they were paid

We would have had 5

[lusty plank]

They locked themselves in a corner

[timber cipher]

isnt true, even if f2p got a free arthur they'd need dim souls to upgrade which 99% dont have

[lusty plank]

If they added awakeneds for every faction, everyone would be at ch 40 by now

[timber cipher]

if we would've had free arthur

[lusty plank]

Just having Solise in a team is usually a win

[timber cipher]

ppl would've complained about dim souls

100%

[lusty plank]

Now imagine 4 awakeneds

[low mulch]

What should I set my wishlist to?

[timber cipher]

read through pins in #companions-questions (first pin has it)

[lusty plank]

Honestly I couldn’t care less about Arthur, idk why ppl are crying so much… in my 4 region pvp…. only one guy has Arthur

And it’s at M+

No one else has him and at most 4 ppl will

4 ppl from like 500 active players is a joke

[timber cipher]

i think ppl just expected arthur and a long divinity banner like shalltear

[frigid willow]

Man, I won’t discuss further.

[timber cipher]

and expections werent met

[frigid willow]

Your case, my top 10 arena already has maxed Arthur

[timber cipher]

its devious but why'd compare with ppl that spent 500$ on a gaccha

[lusty plank]

I’m just pissed about the pvp change and the lack of transparency regarding awakened heroes

This game started off well

But it’s going down the toilet fast

Arthur is least of my worries

[timber cipher]

kinda transparency and a release schedule for companion would be lovely

[frigid willow]

I don’t worry much about Arthur but there are others things that made the game harder for f2p

[lusty plank]

I’m on s13 so most ppl are bored and f2p now, even the whales don’t spend now

[frigid willow]

Lack of roadmap shows how much they care about people and not money

[timber cipher]

tbh for me not so much I'll do a f2p acc on birthday aniverserity or next banner

[lusty plank]

I noticed there aren’t many whales on servers under 40 now

Most whales popped up after s60

[timber cipher]

they didnt had that for classic tbh too

[lusty plank]

And a crazy amount in the s80+ range

But in the old ass s1 to s20 servers no one rly spends

[frigid willow]

Newer servers are more powerful than old ones

[lusty plank]

Except 2 krakens

Yippy and Menirz

S1 and s8

[timber cipher]

i think they'll do the content but they need time - like we finished with all heroes getting divinity a few weeks ago

before that only a handful of heroes had "furniture and engravings" / divinity

[lusty plank]

Obviously you enjoy it since you’re getting your dopamine fix from all the rewards and stages cleared

[frigid willow]

[lusty plank]

But you’ll plateau at ch 41 and get bored

Soon

[frigid willow]

Small indie company can’t design new things

Same patch everyday

Copy paste

[lusty plank]

Is “small” sarcasm? Lol

I can’t tell

[frigid willow]

Ofc

[lusty plank]

Ah good

[frigid willow]

They made millions with afk arena of

Og

[lusty plank]

They make even more with Rise of Kingdoms

[frigid willow]

They were number 1 on google play and Apple Store back in the day for a few years

[lusty plank]

RoK spenders make afk look like a joke

[frigid willow]

Before super cell made clash royale

But still then Afk was top 3

[lusty plank]

AFK Arena during its launch period is in the top 40 most downloaded games for that period

U can even see it on wikipedia

2019

[frigid willow]

Imagine how much money they invested and how much money they got in return

[lusty plank]

I was one of those April 2019 players

[frigid willow]

People say Pc games and Console games makes a lot of money

But Mobile games are Huge

[lusty plank]

I used to play a game called Monster Legends, I remember when it was making crazy amounts of money then it just fell off

But Supercell are the top dawgs

[frigid willow]

Played them all, dragon city

All

When they were Facebook games

[lusty plank]

Yeah Socialpoint games

I have a $20000 account in Monster Legends lol

Deadass game

Even worse than afk arena in terms of activity now

It’s only like 60 elite players

[frigid willow]

Super cell made huge money with Clash royale, CoC and brawl stars

When you compare Lilith games with Super cell

[lusty plank]

Chinese devs make a lot more than Supercell I think

[frigid willow]

Thinking that this company was top 1 for a long time

[lusty plank]

We just don’t have much data

Remember that AFK has a special app just for Chinese ppl

I’ve heard they spend way more than ppl out of China

[frigid willow]

Supercell made so much money and they invested that money into new games that are not actually bad

[lusty plank]

We have the international version

[frigid willow]

But Lilith idk what they did

[frigid willow]

Every game a Chinese version

[lusty plank]

Lilith likely makes over $1B/year at the very least

They’re doing fine

[frigid willow]

That s why you can’t really tell how huge is a game

Because you have to calculate Asia

[lusty plank]

Asia is the ultimate goldmine for mobile game devs

[frigid willow]

But you don’t have much data on that

[lusty plank]

China, Japan and South Korea

🐳

[frigid willow]

Vietnam is crazy in mobile games

[lusty plank]

Most ppl in the west play PC/console based games rather than gachas

[gloomy comet]

$1B annual profit not revenue <-> a random suggestion channel tucked away in a discord server somewhere

what do they listen to

[frigid willow]

I think the only pc game that was close to mobile games at revenue was Genshin

[lusty plank]

Genshin is a crazy cash cow

I’ve seen the data

Sheesh

[lusty plank]

They’re obviously gonna listen to the peasants

[frigid willow]

Idk, I miss the old games

Where battle passes didn’t existed

[lusty plank]

2010s mobile games >>>>

My childhood

And i mean before 2017

[frigid willow]

And cosmetics were the micro transactions

[lusty plank]

Fortnite started the battlepass trend

[lusty plank]

CSGO nostalgia

[frigid willow]

yea

[lusty plank]

Buying skins

[gloomy comet]

out of all the things that happened to gaming i think battle passes are the most annoying

[lusty plank]

Shoving shitty loot crate deals too

[frigid willow]

Overwatch had loot crates

[lusty plank]

And the fucking fact we can’t use diamonds for stargazing on companions is outrageous

[eternal drum]

At least other games do $5 battle passes. Wtf is with the prices in AFK

[gloomy comet]

chores that you have to pay to do for items that get locked out of your account if you don't pay a ransom

[frigid willow]

Apex had such a good loot boxes before they added sprays and dialogue shit

[lusty plank]

They’re so scared of people speedrunning through the game and quitting

It’s obvious

[frigid willow]

And all you get was sprays

[lusty plank]

AFK spending is a scam unless you’re seriously wealthy

Like able to spend over $1000/month

At the very minimum

[eternal drum]

You'd think they were trying to fund an entire country with these prices

[lusty plank]

I always respect whales tho, they keep the game alive

[frigid willow]

Every gatcha is like this

[lusty plank]

AFK is the only gacha i’ve played for years

Everything else I quit after a few days

I don’t think i’ll ever play a gacha after afk

[frigid willow]

Imagine how much money they made from this island shit event

[lusty plank]

I generally dislike the genre

[frigid willow]

They already had the design and all that

For Arthur too

They just loaded the file with 0 costs

[lusty plank]

It’s easy work

Work smart not hard

[frigid willow]

And put Arthur at 2K$

[lusty plank]

Can’t blame them

I’d do the same if i were their ceo

Try to milk money

Everyone would if they could

Let’s not lie to ourselves kek

[frigid willow]

Idk man

I’m not like that

[eternal drum]

I wouldn't. I've seen the people who ruin their lives on these addictions

Why have that guilt on your shoulders

[frigid willow]

Ok, let s make some bread but have a limit

[lusty plank]

I just realized my morals are quite questionable

[gloomy comet]

ragnarok actually had a decent idle afk game, even with it having had 0 updates for 2 years, i never felt behind like i do here

[frigid willow]

Devs has gone mad these days

Even single players have battle passes

And micro transactions

[gloomy comet]

it was just there to take vip passes and stuff until there wasnt enough to pay for a global server

[eternal drum]

I've moved on to GFL2 for now. I log in for the 5 minutes a day on afk but that's all

[gloomy comet]

cn got updates the entire way

[lusty plank]

Running a game with 0 updates after 2 years is crazy

How is it even up

[lusty plank]

Yeah at least the low time investment is goated when it comes to this game

Even classic doesn’t take thaaat much

[gloomy comet]

because enough people bough deviruchi wings and angel wings i guess

[lusty plank]

I play both versions daily

[gloomy comet]

idk

[eternal drum]

I hope this golden frontier doesn't take my time

[lusty plank]

We’ll see, but I doubt it

Even abEx isn’t that brutal

[frigid willow]

Hope it s like journey clash if you guys know

[gloomy comet]

its probably going to be over designed so people think they're playing a game for once

which just means headache to deal with

[lusty plank]

Interesting to see a major new event just for companions tho

[frigid willow]

Wonder how much time they spend designing it

[lusty plank]

The spire and companion challenge thing are hardly events

[frigid willow]

And when people will complain about it, they will say it s beta

And keep it beta forever

[lusty plank]

So something bigger feels reinvigorating

[gloomy comet]

i wouldn't expect anything more than redesigned journey leftovers

[lusty plank]

Bro back in 2019 did you know classic had something super cool

Called guild wars

You could fight against other guilds

THEY NEVER DID IT AGAIN

It was so cool

Actual compensation

[gloomy comet]

they put RoE in afk classic?

[lusty plank]

It probably made 0 revenue

[lusty plank]

What’s RoE sorry?

[gloomy comet]

i'd have to look it up what the R is

[lusty plank]

I mean what event

Describe

[gloomy comet]

my bad

WoE

[lusty plank]

I’m so used to robotically doing events that I’ve started forgetting their names

[gloomy comet]

war of emperium from ragnarok

[lusty plank]

Ah nah

I don’t think so

I never played Ragnarok

[gloomy comet]

guild v guild pvp

i never did that i just know its there

[lusty plank]

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=o8YC_RW_9kY

If you’re interested

As I said

They only did it once

Despite being rly good imo

[gloomy comet]

i hope fhg drops a big video trashing companions this weekend

[lusty plank]

FHG seems to be getting done with this franchise

Sad

I have the guy added on discord, used to chat with him going back to 2020

Very dedicated to what he does

[frigid willow]

Anniversary patch will decide the fate of both games

[frigid willow]

I think he mostly does Journey

Another milk money game

Hoped Lilith was not involved in that game

I actually enjoy a bit early

[lusty plank]

I’m glad I never touched journey

Was never gonna like it anyways

From what I saw it was like Genshin

I’m lazy and hate travel based gachas

[gloomy comet]

good graphics, i liked the base game experience enough, trash the minute they started seasons

[frigid willow]

Don’t worry, story is ass. Not so much to walk

Every season the story is shorter

[lusty plank]

One of the reasons I like afk arena so much is also the design

I hate the overused 3d animated gachas

[gloomy comet]

the story was watchable

[lusty plank]

They just feel cheap

Idk

[gloomy comet]

until maulers then its like i dont give a f about any of these people or whats going on here, i have more shit to do and less time to do it in

[lusty plank]

Most gachas are just ripoffs from each other atp

Afk def had something special about it compared to most tho

[gloomy comet]

jar jar binks exile storyline with blood battle younglings or something idk

[lusty plank]

[frigid willow]

They actually had devs in the early years

[gloomy comet]

blah blah honor tribe blah blah

[frigid willow]

Listening to players and all that shit

[lusty plank]

Afk arena from 2019-2021 unbeatable

[frigid willow]

Most of this discord is dead

[lusty plank]

There was a reason i took a break from Dec 2021 to 2023

When they released awakeneds i started getting bored

[frigid willow]

I stopped at pets I think

[lusty plank]

Then when I came back in Jan 2024 i started liking them a bit

But then draconians shat the bed

[gloomy comet]

i joined after the wokelene event and saw scarlet drop

or she had just been released

[lusty plank]

When I started Brutus was considered god tier

I stargazed for him in 2019

Pain

And for rowan too

Extra pain

And a bit for rosaline… pain

[gloomy comet]

i e30 fawkes because i hate dealing with brutus

[lusty plank]

Classic or here?

[gloomy comet]

classic

[frigid willow]

When I started and I did Rowan 30 I was so fucking happy

[lusty plank]

I could never lol, bold move tho

[gloomy comet]

for the on field coffin

[lusty plank]

I always liked Fawkes design wise

Mysterious man aura

[gloomy comet]

took out a lot of eironns gwyneths and vurks before they do their thing

[lusty plank]

Altho my first maxed out hero was Farael

[frigid willow]

My fav was Eirron, I joined my first Abex and they gave us Eirron skin

I was so happy that I achieved Prince and got his skin

[gloomy comet]

i didnt spend so i didnt worry to much about making bad moves as long as they werent disastrously bad

[frigid willow]

Crazy time

[gloomy comet]

lol damn is that a 4x hcp monthly?

oh no its 2700

[lusty plank]

I got this shit on my birthday back in 2021

To make things better

It was my last needed Luci copy

Good times

I miss them

[frigid willow]

I posted it on Reddit and people told me that s impossible

And I photoshopped it

lol

[lusty plank]

Bro if you bought a lottery ticket with this luck…

[frigid willow]

[lusty plank]

The probability is insane

Like seriously

[gloomy comet]

it looks like a shop

but out of millions of 10pulls someones bound to see crazy shit

its not like its 3 different awakened

[frigid willow]

Some guy calculate it on Reddit and said it s almost impossible

It was like 0.000003 or something

[lusty plank]

I think I managed to get a collection with the exact same stats as a previous one and it deleted the new one

[frigid willow]

Crazy times

[lusty plank]

I can hardly prove it tho

This happened like 2 weeks ago

[gloomy comet]

collections killed the game for me

[lusty plank]

Even support couldn’t help me

They basically owe me a collection

I never got it

[gloomy comet]

every time i think about afk collections, or genshin artifacts. i'm reminded of a borderlands 2 video

[lusty plank]

Idk much since i’m not competitive

But they’re ridiculously important

At the higher levels

Since heroes need specific stats

Sometimes heroes need different shit just for different game modes

It’s too much

[gloomy comet]

some guy is going thru the game, and he's talking about how its statistically impossible to get a perfect roll on any item in the game

[lusty plank]

Collections suck even for whales

Too much rng

Luckily custom collections are a thing now

They didn’t use to be

[frigid willow]

I would pay a fortune to play afk arena 2019-2020

[gloomy comet]

i think its a campaign world record speedrun or something, and he's like i will never not mod my saves unless i'm doing it for a record because fuck this design

[lusty plank]

Me too, just to relive it

It was so much fun

I was like a mini Kasu when afk launched in 2019

All for nothing anyways, I missed out on a year of content in 2022

Fucked my account

[gloomy comet]

each item has like 6~12 different manufacturer components in it, and they all effect stats, its basically afk collections

its how you get millions of weapons out of 200-300

[lusty plank]

I’ve just gotten to a point where if something is at a +2 it’s good enough for me

Specific stats can fuck themselves

I only care about the skill level

[gloomy comet]

i just quit running gallery

[lusty plank]

Me too, i cba to even do 3 blues

[gloomy comet]

my collections are abysmal and i'm in chapter 51

[lusty plank]

And they kick me in the balls by giving me better stuff from 3 blues than using golden ones

[eternal drum]

Borderlands is like afk arena. You run the same content 100 times a day and don't get anywhere.

[lusty plank]

I’m in 66 and i can probably get to 68 but meh

I went from 54 to 65 on auto lmao

In Jan

Needed diamonds

And when my diamonds get low again I can probably auto like 400 KT stages

[gloomy comet]

just having some to equip at all goes a long way, not a great long way, but a bit

[lusty plank]

I just level cram

Wanna hit lvl 1000 before i quit

[gloomy comet]

the state that clears to follow is in, is

[lusty plank]

I expect to reach it in 2026

[gloomy comet]

woke chad woke dragon chad

[lusty plank]

I’ve gonna finally get an ascended highborn dragon soon lol

After a year

Lan ig

[gloomy comet]

i have hildwin i need another 2 lan for a

[lusty plank]

Gonna get Envy to A in a few days

Just busy with work

I wanna enjoy the experience

So i do it when i can relax

It’s like some weird ritual since it happens every 4 months for me 😭

[gloomy comet]

experience is just count to 7 then look at the screen, yep pity

[lusty plank]

I even screen record the summons but never post it anywhere

Just for myself

[lusty plank]

But yeah… pretty much the same

[slow umbra]

@pine sable @civic verge rem best girlie still

It's kind of gross how obsessed subaru is with emilia

guy just straight up asked rem to help him protect another woman he loves after she confessed to him smh

[civic verge]

Yeah that was terribly cringey of Subaru

Right after she poured her heart out

https://tenor.com/view/rem-visura-prazer-rem-gif-18341110

[dusty olive]

Anyone have awakened talene🤔

[lusty plank]

A few

At least 6

[dusty olive]

6😂

@timber cipher

You have her yet?

[lusty plank]

He doesn’t have it

Not even close

[dusty olive]

Ah

[lusty plank]

He’s at 1/5

[warped rain]

What is that prince thing?

[lusty plank]

You need to spend like $5000 just to get her

[dusty olive]

Vault of time

[lusty plank]

Abyssal expedition

[warped rain]

How many ascended should I have for the first one of the server?

[lusty plank]

To get the event?

You just have to wait, I assume you’re on a new server if you’re asking this

[warped rain]

yeah

Honestly didn't know companion had Abyssal

[lusty plank]

[eternal drum]

More like abysmal

[lusty plank]

[sour crag]

@myst2018 Honestly it's easy than classic

I prepare Mortas for Abex but it's too easy my friends kill the boss before i can do anything

Maybe Abex S4 will be difficult than a little bit 😁✨

[frigid willow]

Journey is getting dimensional heroes

Fairy tail collab actually

We might also get the collab

[worldly sapphire]

Someone save my sanity, but didn't ice crown also buffed dims? Now only celohypo?

Or was it always just celohypo

[remote canopy]

always celehypo

[eternal drum]

Fairy Tail did us dirty with the final season

Ruined the series for me. Don't even want to collab now.

[vital pond]

our second-best guild is falling

They're leaving

[eternal drum]

That's the problem with such a weirdly small guild size that is just too small to fit everyone who is active and too large to leave room for a second guild

but I guess over time when there really are only <30 active players on a server it's fine

[vital pond]

My guild is third and the top 1 guild has 1 whale

Our server ded assf rn

[hot hollow]

which server?

[vital pond]

127

The story why they leaving is in warzone chat

[hot hollow]

Why would be that the reason ?

[eternal drum]

Did they see which servers they were paired up against?

[vital pond]

No they're leaving because their guild leader was inactive for 2days

[eternal drum]

I wouldn't blame the guild leader

game has gone to shit

probably playing madoka now

[vital pond]

The story is in the warzone chat. You can read there

[vital pond]

Once my leader do that I would leave too

[hot hollow]

at least to try and switch the leader

[eternal drum]

I meant to say I don't blame the leader for quitting because they should

every patch it feels like companions is just a way to recycle scraps

[cloud wing]

Our guildmaster

Our original

Is gone

[eternal drum]

Would be funny if they migrated back to classic

[lusty plank]

Could you pls screenshot the top player of your server?

[full python]

Hey guys

[vital pond]

Lmao they moved to the #1 guild

[full python]

I hope you all doing great

Can you please help me

About focusing to a specific hero

Shemira for example

I'm upgrading her

I wished there was a updated tir list or something

[worldly sapphire]

Focus on wilder heroes to unlock ASolise

[remote canopy]

[stoic pilot]

I see nothing wrong with this. A Mauler's only use is to take a hit.
They even gave Brutus invicibility so that he would be better than the average Mauler at it.

[grizzled parrot]

Which fairy tail heroes are journey getting?

[full python]

I think it's late I focused graveborn

I have only two good wild born heroes

[worldly sapphire]

Never too late, wilders is a must for fast progression with Solise

Otherwise you may aswell play the game blindfolded

[bitter ingot]

Could i use Mehira early in the game? (i only have a couple 120 heroes so far.

Im trying to figure out who to focus right now.

[full python]

Ok ty can you explain what you mean by focusing wilders ?

You mean I get all of their heroes

Or ascend some of them

[pine sable]

rejection hurts but subaru did a different type of fcked up shit lmaoo

[granite owl]

What is better? Classic of companions?

[eternal drum]

classic is looking better with each companions patch

a month ago companions would've been a much easier pick

[granite owl]

I just start on companions, but I'll guess I'll start over on classic

I just started today

[eternal drum]

Classic will have a lot of things that you'll have to learn

but companions is getting shafted hard by the devs

[quick hinge]

Front

[eternal drum]

Maybe they're suggesting Kren is bad no matter where you put them

[maiden hare]

Neither

[eternal drum]

True that. Quit while you're ahead.

And the less you play, the more ahead you are.

[quick hinge]

[maiden hare]

good investment

[quick hinge]

Great investment

[maiden hare]

Well spent 300$

[quick hinge]

Crassio did 0 dmg

Th owl

Did more then everyone

Trish did work though

[hollow flume]

ofc ice Shemira means the death sentences to physical dmg dealers

rip Kren

[eternal drum]

what about emotional damage dealers

[hollow flume]

next boss is Burning Brute

[quick hinge]

Thane is physical though no?

[quick hinge]

Talene big dmg boss

[hollow flume]

[quick hinge]

Pipa

The only use

Pipa has

[eternal drum]

Hey pippa is a useful fodder

[bitter ingot]

what do i do with mehira/talene at the start of the game? i pulled mehira, im stuck at 10-40 atm

[worldly sapphire]

Look at the beginner guide Melchior posted above, it will explain all

[bitter ingot]

damn, i guess its not easy to explain

[eternal drum]

I'd say it's easier than 99% of gacha

the only game that's easier to explain is cookie clicker

[knotty dragon]

I'm getting tired of constantly repairing the game 🥱

It keeps re-downloading the game and when I repair it, it's become annoying.

[bitter ingot]

its still complicated with 3 bajillion heroes that idk what to do with

[eternal drum]

You can look at other people's formations in every stage

[bitter ingot]

https://tenor.com/view/no-cat-no-cat-cat-meme-gif-12648446265180742764

[eternal drum]

See what people used to clear

[bitter ingot]

theyre not even from my server tho

[eternal drum]

Why does that matter

These guides aren't made by people in your server

[bitter ingot]

i didnt think about that

[eternal drum]

Look at others formations and see if you can copy them. See what makes them work.

[bitter ingot]

i think i might be at a waiting point then..

everyone is at least full 120 with maybe a 140

[eternal drum]

Maybe. You can get a higher level player to duo with you and rush stages

That will unlock some other content to get resources

[bitter ingot]

naw, i think im 4th right now.

theres no one else to duo with

how much does the ascend level matter?

this.. wouldnt work, would it?

[hollow flume]

No Shalltears

https://tenor.com/view/markets-in-your-favor-gif-27376773

[bitter ingot]

rip?

[bitter ingot]

whos shalltear?

[hollow flume]

https://tenor.com/view/overlord-anime-shaltear-gif-22102422

[bitter ingot]

oh, sucks you didnt get her

Should i be taking Trishea or Levanthi up to L+ first?

This is my box rn

[quick hinge]

Trish best hero in the game

[bitter ingot]

mmm but does she do well with what i already have set up?

would i use her over lyca?

this is what ive been pushing with.

[charred locust]

Anyone have this issue?

[quick hinge]

Delete the game and retry

@timber cipher

[timber cipher]

that looks actually annoying to fight

tower feels a bit hard eventho 3 teams

need to look at the formations and push it been lazy at like 570

[quick hinge]

Wait till the vid loads

My team dies in under 20 secs

[timber cipher]

had to sign some contracts today

aswell as prep some handovers for my old company

[quick hinge]

[timber cipher]

am still written sick, but if i dont do that i feel like morally bad

[quick hinge]

Am racing tank atm

[timber cipher]

[quick hinge]

So far we both stuck on this stage

[timber cipher]

think deers and salaki can be the easy answer to not dying as early

but not sure if ur missing dps

against mauler gwyneth would shred them wirth arthur

literally gwyneth 2 shots teams in 5seconds

2 shots, kills 2-3 ppl, insta ults and maybe 1 tanky frontliner is left

[quick hinge]

[quick hinge]

I beat the first 2 stages

It's the third wave

[timber cipher]

mhh

can u use talene for nara?

[quick hinge]

My solies team is to sht

[timber cipher]

u have 3 issues

trez is charging your backline carry
nara is displacing your frontliners and ccing

isabella is doing enemy isabella things

and mehira is just annoying on top of that, but not the main issue

[quick hinge]

Mhm

[timber cipher]

so if u can use talene or brutus in here

u will be most likely able to beat it

[quick hinge]

Can't

[timber cipher]

or both

like u need a cheat death/cheat damage

[quick hinge]

What I used

[timber cipher]

what are the formations on team 3 looking like?

(level / used heroes)?

[quick hinge]

365+

[timber cipher]

oof

[quick hinge]

There's not many people who are above me

It's only showing 5 people

[timber cipher]

[quick hinge]

7

[timber cipher]

kasumi ascending from kings tower to kaiser tower

[quick hinge]

People

Look at all these whales

[timber cipher]

whats the solution of the 90M guy that has top 5?

[quick hinge]

Everyone got trans

[timber cipher]

+3% boost

[quick hinge]

He copied the others

So

The same as everyone else's

[timber cipher]

will climb tower to see the krakens ig

[quick hinge]

We the only ones without trans

This high

[timber cipher]

not yet

am still in 372

[quick hinge]

Well me at least

U still need to catch up

[timber cipher]

[quick hinge]

[timber cipher]

well

we have almost trans trish and mishka

[quick hinge]

True

Need 1 more Trish

And just a few more hero copies

Have 4 4*'s

Idk who will be my 5th 5*
