avrora-general

[ornate mantle]

That's good though, especiallu just from Signals.

[wintry sonnet]

I agree, there is indeed so fakking much to do

[ornate mantle]

LUL

I love having the Kizunas.

Just to hear these types of lines.

Same with their Aux.

"- No Talking Shit!"

[verbal obsidian]

gn memers

[wintry sonnet]

[ornate mantle]

There's only one memer in here though.

[wintry sonnet]

slow farming today

if it wasn't for the skin boxes I bought, I wouldn't have a single skin today

despite doing like 20-30 runs of SP3

[ornate mantle]

I've been getting them fairly frequently. They're just all Kizuna Plane skins.

God knows how many times I've run SP4.

[wintry sonnet]

I had like 4 roll out yesterday

but today, complete drought

[ornate mantle]

Oof.

[wintry sonnet]

and my oil's dipped to below 1k

good thing it's week reset

I rather not have to open up the tutorial missions stockpile just yet

rather keep that 6k oil for PR

[ornate mantle]

I'm at 12k oil still.

[cosmic pier]

you luccsacced all of em yesterday

[ornate mantle]

Started at 23k oil this morning.

SO i definitely made a dent.

[wintry sonnet]

oof

how much do you pay per sortie

150?

[ornate mantle]

Uhhhh, 21 per trash.

And 32 Per Boss.

[wintry sonnet]

so 147 including the sortie payment

[ornate mantle]

Yeah.

[wintry sonnet]

that's a lot of runs

and you were making oil from commissions too

[ornate mantle]

I've lost track of how many exactly.

Yeah, there was that too.

[wintry sonnet]

above 80 would be my guess

[ornate mantle]

Also oil from missions.

[wintry sonnet]

near 90

[ornate mantle]

Sound about right i think.

[wintry sonnet]

so you made about 10k points today

[ornate mantle]

10 runs nets 1.2k Points.

Crap.

[wintry sonnet]

actually you made close to 12k points

cause dailies + black-SP

[ornate mantle]

Uwaaaaaah.

Wait wtf.

Did I take a break somewhere.

I don't know how many points I have, lmao.

[wintry sonnet]

go to event map

[ornate mantle]

Ah, in total I've earned 12500 points.

Atm I have 4000 ready for exchange.

[wintry sonnet]

huh...

that doesnt seem right

[ornate mantle]

I used 2000 earlier today.

[wintry sonnet]

no I mean

[ornate mantle]

I know.

I should have way more.

[wintry sonnet]

are you using subs or is it just dry runs

[ornate mantle]

Dry.

[wintry sonnet]

not sure what happened then

[ornate mantle]

Idk, All i know is I have been at this map all day.

OH.

I was using oil for other shit too.

And I get lazy on those, so I end up using 70 oil fleets.

[wintry sonnet]

ah, that would explain it then

[ornate mantle]

The mystery has been solved.

I guess.

[wintry sonnet]

I go about 30-40 oil for non-torp dodging dailies

could go lower, but cba to swap out my ships

my fleets are largely unchangeable save for adding a ship here and there depending on what sos signal I get

if it's below world 6, I just send my lb0s

6 to 8, 1:1 with phoenix and 1:2 for boss

[ornate mantle]

I have nothing at Lb0.

[wintry sonnet]

9, I throw in Cassin to trash mob

[ornate mantle]

So i usualy just 1:1 anything below W6.

[wintry sonnet]

10, I go 2:2 and 1:3

[ornate mantle]

I'm not as conservative with oil unless it's dedicated farming.

[wintry sonnet]

well

I'm gonna start saving up alot of oil soon

[ornate mantle]

PRRRRRRRRRRR

[wintry sonnet]

cause I'm down to last affection point on i-58

[ornate mantle]

Oh nice.

[wintry sonnet]

meaning I dont have to grind subs anymore

until I get the other 2 that is

[ornate mantle]

Which subs you missing?

Bunny and Tiddy Kitty right?

[wintry sonnet]

dark chocolate and frau miau, yea

[ornate mantle]

Ah, gotcha.

[cosmic pier]

not getting your pizza neko to 200?

[wintry sonnet]

she'll get there eventually

I'm not really one to spam for 200 affection

heck I dont even have any 200 affection ships yet

Concord, Duke and Nimi are at 190

[ornate mantle]

I wasn't paying attention to my farming... and the boss was right there and it got me so confused.

"Didn't I just start the map? What do I do from here."

But it turned out I killed 4 trash nodes.

I haven't married Nimi unfortunately. Maybe I should.

She's been with me since Day 1 and deserves the ring.

She was also the key component to me beating a few challenging things.

[wintry sonnet]

that was my reason for oathing her. She's been there for me from the start, carrying my fleet

ah, the days we've spent farming C1 during Fallen Wings

[ornate mantle]

Whew.

Her HP will always make me feel confident for a DD.

[wintry sonnet]

she kept every single backline BB I was levelling safe throughout the whole thing

[vital edge]

wait

is this real?

[ornate mantle]

Yeah, LMAO.

[wintry sonnet]

no, it's a mirage

[vital edge]

omfg what a meme

[wintry sonnet]

[ornate mantle]

The others are kinda meme too.

But that is by far the best.

[wintry sonnet]

too bad it'll stop being a meme post-event for whatever reason

[vital edge]

...r u fkin kiddin me?

it's already the best this event has to offer?

[wintry sonnet]

right now if you equip it, it makes your fleet autobattle in a static diamond line

[vital edge]

[cosmic pier]

you're dreaming

[ornate mantle]

Well, the story has a lot of people talkin' shit.

[vital edge]

so it affects auto mode movement, huh?

[ornate mantle]

The Kizuna also have voicelines that talk shit.

[cosmic pier]

only on AI botes

[vital edge]

hmm

[cosmic pier]

and only for the duration of the event

[wintry sonnet]

tbh static diamond movement might potentially be good

[cosmic pier]

[vital edge]

That sounds interesting actua...oh

just for the event time

[wintry sonnet]

yeah post-event they're removing that for whatever reason

it'll just be a stat stick

[vital edge]

talk about fucking useless

[cosmic pier]

it just makes her move in a circle ish

[wintry sonnet]

not a good one at that

[cosmic pier]

like 9-4 boss

[ornate mantle]

Wait really.

I didn't know about that Diamond affect.

I gott try it out.

[vital edge]

This event continues to surprise me in all the bad ways

[wintry sonnet]

I could see that being good

if they always move in the same pattern with the same timing, then you just have to fix the timings

[vital edge]

I was almost tempted to get points just for that AI chip

[wintry sonnet]

and you can effectively make your fleet always torp away in the middle

[ornate mantle]

The chip gets instant +10.

[wintry sonnet]

or close to it

[vital edge]

instant +10?

[cosmic pier]

https://cdn.binary102.com/share/2019-04-27_21-12-21.mp4

[ornate mantle]

Just gave it +10 right now.

[wintry sonnet]

I'm more interested in the box tbh

[cosmic pier]

only one of the aux imma grab is the hit/eva one and the 500hp with 2+ luck if I get excess points

[wintry sonnet]

swaps between weapons skins + has accuracy stat and can be equipped on carriers

[vital edge]

I saw the box stats

it's just a fancy gyroscope, isn't it?

[wintry sonnet]

rather it's a weaker SG radar

[ornate mantle]

Let’s have some fun.

[cosmic pier]

an sg radar you can pop on a cv so they can get more hits in

good shit

[wintry sonnet]

pretty much

just the fact you can give it to carriers is massive

[vital edge]

Does the box lower encounter rate?

[wintry sonnet]

cause y'know, not many good aux equips for carriers right now

just aviation and hp

[vital edge]

and eva

[ornate mantle]

Has anyone here gotten the Dorm shit for Kizuna?

[vital edge]

Not me

[wintry sonnet]

working on it, only picked up the x times stuff

so I can buy everything else with 1 click

as for the box, if you mean does it have the sg radar effect, no as far as I remember

[vital edge]

You know, I had an idea

[wintry sonnet]

it will give you a slight buff to ambush tho, since it increases eva

[vital edge]

Why don't we have a separate dock for bulins?

[ornate mantle]

Did you get the Gem items?

[cosmic pier]

[ornate mantle]

Whew, since they're lame... what do they do exactly.

I'm probably gonna end up buying them.

[wintry sonnet]

the stage is basically a mini sandy stage but withotu sandy

the tv is just a tv but actually works

unlike the one from sakura dorm

[ornate mantle]

Yeah fuck it. I'll buy them.

They're collectibles.

I probably won't use them just yet as I love my dorm though.

[wintry sonnet]

I'll pick them only if I can get Zeppy

no zeppy, no bueno

[ornate mantle]

You don't have Zeppy yet?

What the fuck rando.

[wintry sonnet]

nope

[cosmic pier]

when the sheppy plan doesnt exactly work cuz of frontline damage

[wintry sonnet]

ain't gettign better in special for me

[ornate mantle]

Ganbatte, how many cubes have been sacrified.

[wintry sonnet]

my first 10roll in special was takao, 3 rares, 6 commons

the 2nd one had enty in it

so that puts me at 220 cubes total so far this event

[ornate mantle]

You got the other Lolies right.

[wintry sonnet]

185 sank into collab

yeah, I got 2 akagis and hiei

which is the worst scenario I could've had

[ornate mantle]

Wait, so 35 thus far into Special alone.

[cosmic pier]

thanks for taking my share of hieis

[wintry sonnet]

cause now I have to snipe Zeppy against 2 other elites that have all the same rate

[cosmic pier]

really appreciated

[ornate mantle]

I had to snipe Akagi-chan when all was said and done.

Zeppy was my first Loli, so that got me happy.

[wintry sonnet]

I hate it when ships have the same %

gimmie different percentage per ship, I'm gucci

but as soon as 2 or more share the same chance

it just goes into fox mines level autismo

[cosmic pier]

went into trophy room for the first time in a while yesterday

[wintry sonnet]

point proven, 5 fucking cv kizunas

[cosmic pier]

saw this

https://discordapp.com/channels/456397991847395339/479676955411873802/572186884634312704

good meme

[wintry sonnet]

before getting the bb version

11 fucking curlews before kimberly

[ornate mantle]

Yeah, that's some godlike luck.

[wintry sonnet]

I'm trying to remember a time when elites didnt give me brain tumour trying to roll for them

I'm coming up emptyhanded

[ornate mantle]

The elites are more of a Spook than the SSR now.

[wintry sonnet]

actually no, there was one

Z-force

Vampire loved jumping at me over and over

[ornate mantle]

Wtf, when there was one Elite, lmao.

I think PoW was more of a headache to me than anything else.

When I first rolled her.

She felt like a fake SSR.

Like, a "You Tried" trophy.

[wintry sonnet]

I went into Z-force building convinced that I'm gonna get bamboozled over and over with Atago's timer

only to see Takao instead

got her on my first timer

but not before I pulled like 6 lusties

[ornate mantle]

[wintry sonnet]

or was it hood

it was either hood or lusty

[ornate mantle]

I remember when I first started, I was rolling cubes every moments I could in special for Lusty. Then VDIR came and I rolled 5 Lusty before Shoukaku.

Ehhhhh, it's theorteically not bad.

When you start farming, it's bad.

[wintry sonnet]

35k would pretty much be the absolute minimum I want

cause PR prints in point exchange

but I wanna get everything

[ornate mantle]

True.

I'm probably gonna hit 13k before stopping for the night.

[wintry sonnet]

if push comes to shove, I'll bail on any non-royal box and non-general purple plate

everythign else I want

[ornate mantle]

The only thing I'm interested in is the 35k points for the last print.

[wintry sonnet]

it's 1,2k per box type and 900 per purple plate type

[cosmic pier]

I'm just going for 25k ish points
oil+gold+pr+chips+dimension items+1 or max 2 of the gear thingies

[ornate mantle]

But 15k of these points are going to All the Prints 100%.

[cosmic pier]

the oxys and boxes and plates can go jump off a cliff

[wintry sonnet]

yea, definitely getting all the pr stuff

the sooner I can kickstart my Ibuki the better

[ornate mantle]

[frail mulch]

⚙ Result

3.92156862745098

[ornate mantle]

That definitely doesn't sound right.

[cosmic pier]

[wintry sonnet]

assuming you dont do any more daily 3

you get 400 from dailies + 600 from black-sp

[frail mulch]

⚙ Result

470.588235294118

[ornate mantle]

Wait.

That's assuming you're going for 25k points though.

AH.

Yeah, gotcha.

[cosmic pier]

wao Im behind schedule

[wintry sonnet]

hm, if I do 10 sp3 runs a day, then with 1k from dailies+black sp I'll make 30k points

that's 39k total with what I got currently

[ornate mantle]

Yeah, I'm very much in the safe zone atm.

[wintry sonnet]

so like 1-2 more runs per day and I can easily clear shop

[ornate mantle]

Just do 5 runs to be on the safe side.

And to finish a little quicker.

[wintry sonnet]

yeah, although to be honest

with how I'm already at over 1k for bel event just doing sos signals

I dont think I'll be at risk of having to rush anything

[frail mulch]

⚙ Result

37400

[wintry sonnet]

did you already pop the tutorial missions reserve?

you're gucci then lol

[cosmic pier]

rando Imma slap you

[ornate mantle]

Ahhh, French event can wait.

I need to catch up on cubes.

[ornate mantle]

Oof.

and LOL..

[cosmic pier]

you also wanted to pass up on the oil

[wintry sonnet]

I have procced maybe 3 cubes total since this event started from various commissions

[cosmic pier]

while going for buying oil

[wintry sonnet]

so I'm not even making enough to keep doing 3 rolls a day

[ornate mantle]

I got like 8 cube commmissions today.

And 1 of them gave me cubes.

[cosmic pier]

lol

[wintry sonnet]

I get nothing but drills

even the 1,2k comm was drills

drills fucking for days

[cosmic pier]

doesnt your pride n stuff hurt you for not buying the shop out

for possible flexes

[ornate mantle]

Damn, Drills Haven.

[wintry sonnet]

[ornate mantle]

Fuuuuuuuuuuuck.

[wintry sonnet]

suddenly i miss the good ol days when I had 3 digit cubes and no drills

[ornate mantle]

I'm sorry.

[cosmic pier]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/466250908682944522/572225128776073217/unknown.png

I'd sell you oil for cheaper than the market price

[ornate mantle]

I missed when I had triple ditis too.

LUL

[cosmic pier]

F

[wintry sonnet]

gotim

[ornate mantle]

Sheeeeeit.

[cosmic pier]

its fine if I use a vpn

idk how many drills I got

do the purins' drills count

life is so much easier after getting 2 more subs and having 6 ammo instead of 2

[wintry sonnet]

actually as soon as I'm done with my current lb0 fleet

I'm gonna go down to like 11 oil per run

kizuna cv + matsukaze + kamikaze + sendai

kamikaze-class costs 1 oil per battle despite being rares

[cosmic pier]

my 4 bulins are waiting for me to get zeppy-chan to level 70

[wintry sonnet]

or, if I get zeppy before that

I dont remember what elite carrier oil consumption is

but I think she stays at like 6 at lvl 70

either 6 or 5

[ornate mantle]

Which Auz equipment makes my ship girl go into a set automovement?

[cosmic pier]

great, just got another planezuna skin

[wintry sonnet]

yeah, most likely 6, just looked up my lb0 yorktown

[cosmic pier]

♿

[ornate mantle]

Hm, I can't see the movement.

[cosmic pier]

most of the plane skins are drops

gib fakkyus so I can stack more fakkyus in storage

[ornate mantle]

OH.

I thought it was any ship.

Rip.

[wintry sonnet]

uh, wait

Rei, you had a vid of the chip in action

[cosmic pier]

there's a reason its a 'chip'

[wintry sonnet]

who was the vanguard on it

[cosmic pier]

trashzuna

[wintry sonnet]

well, that won't answer it then

but I dont think the chip is kizuna-only

[ornate mantle]

I'll test out in a sec.

[cosmic pier]

https://cdn.binary102.com/share/2019-04-27_21-12-21.mp4

[wintry sonnet]

that would make even less sense

only works on kizuna ai and stops working post-event?

[cosmic pier]

it 'technically' makes sense cuz its a chip and she's an A I n all that and you insert the chip on it blah blah

[flat palm]

Idk if ill bother trying more for zeppy and i19 ehh

[cosmic pier]

some randomass reasoning like that

[ornate mantle]

That sounds like a really stupid decision.

[flat palm]

To do or not to do a multi for weekly today

[ornate mantle]

@flat palm : KEEP IT UP.

[flat palm]

I only got 54 cubes doe

[ornate mantle]

Uhhhhh, don't keep it up then.

[wintry sonnet]

I still win in cubes department

dont even have any emails

[cosmic pier]

shit I got less drills

what is this blasphemy

[wintry sonnet]

#1stworldproblems

[cosmic pier]

you have the whaling option

totally definitely evens it out

[ornate mantle]

Look at what the chip makes my Cygnet do at every battle start, lmao.

[wintry sonnet]

hhmmm... having nearly 400 cubes and not having to buy them, or having no cubes but money to buy them

not sure which is better

sounds like both are equal

[cosmic pier]

imagine not having cubes nor money to buy em

[wintry sonnet]

hai domo

[cosmic pier]

cuz the moment I get unluckier than with nagato Im exactly that

[wintry sonnet]

aquan dess

[cosmic pier]

[ornate mantle]

Literally she shoots out passed the boundary.

[wintry sonnet]

I mgiht have to even forego buying the trade license this month

cuz fucking comic1 out of nowhere

[ornate mantle]

Because what.

[wintry sonnet]

it's like a smaller comiket

[flat palm]

Err

[ornate mantle]

Ahhhh.

[dim crystal]

damn

[flat palm]

I guess ill do a x5 today

[ornate mantle]

Do it aki.

[flat palm]

And daily special for rest of the event

[dim crystal]

farming this event is hard

[ornate mantle]

Ping me when you do.

[flat palm]

Im only missing uhh

[dim crystal]

since the best map give only 120

........

[flat palm]

Zeppy from the lolis

[cosmic pier]

I mean you can technically do 4 and it'll be justified cuz 10 build weekly

[dim crystal]

I'm only missing 3

[flat palm]

And targetting just one ship in special doesnt sound smart

[wintry sonnet]

Can I just point out

[dim crystal]

after almost 400 cubes

[wintry sonnet]

what's the point of having 3x points on Black-SP

when we can only do it once a day anyway

why not just say "600 base points"

what kind of scam artistry is this

[flat palm]

I did one multi and a x3 yday azu

And got 2 enty 1 sandy lol

[dim crystal]

farming this shit event is the worst

[ornate mantle]

I make 600 points in 5 runs which is 147 * 5.

[dim crystal]

[flat palm]

In same 10

[ornate mantle]

.calc (147*5)

[frail mulch]

⚙ Result

735

[dim crystal]

120 per run

[ornate mantle]

So 735 per run.

I ean, 735 per 600 points I earn.

[flat palm]

I got the fakkyu one as a drop i think

[wintry sonnet]

honestly, not sure if I even want to

memories of farming all the gear skins from neptunia event are still fresh in my brain

[flat palm]

Ive farmed.. 10.5k so far

[wintry sonnet]

look at this shit

I got all of this

[flat palm]

Im behind cause i did belchan first

[wintry sonnet]

trying to get that fucking joypad skin

[flat palm]

But god this event feels SO slow to farm

Atleast we can farm the PR ship xp in sp4 i guess?

Right

[wintry sonnet]

still, the worst set so far

was the boar set

no question about it

they mishandled that shit so badly

not only did it go full price just as we got finished with the christmas gear sets that were on discount

they ran it for 7 days

you couldn't even get the entire set if you bought every single box and got 0 dupes

[flat palm]

I ignored it

Didnt like it

[cosmic pier]

I got some boar vomits outta the boxes

[wintry sonnet]

Wish they stopped with this "You can only buy the gear skins for 7k three times a day" nonsense

just make them drop from event maps

like you do in collabs

[dim crystal]

i didnt even bother to equip the weapon skins

[stuck copper]

I know that feeling rand

[dim crystal]

too much effort

[stuck copper]

I never use wep skins

Especially when you move gear around a lot

[wintry sonnet]

I try to use them, but the game doesnt help

since it doesnt save the skin presets

[stuck copper]

Like the moment you move gear

[dim crystal]

they need to make a function

[wintry sonnet]

every time I swap out equipment, poof

[stuck copper]

"Instantly removes the skin"

[dim crystal]

to have the skin fused

[wintry sonnet]

gotta reassign shit again

[dim crystal]

somehow

[stuck copper]

So it's like

Nah

I'm good

[wintry sonnet]

yea Palp, they should just make the skins assigned to a ship

and not equipment

[flat palm]

Im abit underwhelmed by the waitress skin set

[stuck copper]

Tbf

[flat palm]

From art they looked so cute

But their rly meh

[stuck copper]

You know what makes even less sense Aquan

[flat palm]

Nothing new about them really

[stuck copper]

Why they don't just make it so that the skin can be assigned to all botes

Rather than having to farm the same thing 15x over

[wintry sonnet]

because fuck you give us 7k coins per box

[cosmic pier]

that would be too convenient

[stuck copper]

You have events like this

Which only appear once ever

And are expected to suddenly farm a fleets worth

Yeah I think that's dumb as fuck lol

[flat palm]

Sp4 seems to drop alot of weapon skins

[cosmic pier]

I mean you aint expected to

[wintry sonnet]

honestly, I can accept having to grind or roll the dice for the sets, even if its complete ass and a hassle and waste of coins

[flat palm]

Which is kinda nice i guess

[cosmic pier]

[wintry sonnet]

just lemme assign the skins to a ship slot and not to equipment

[stuck copper]

No but if you miss it you're screwed out of it for good

[wintry sonnet]

so it doesnt get reset everytime I swap shit out

[cosmic pier]

only wep skins I actually use are on zepper, deutsch and spee lel

for obvious reasons

[stuck copper]

But you get what I mean

You miss it and that's it

[ornate mantle]

LOL.

[stuck copper]

There's no getting them

[ornate mantle]

You gear what I mean.

[wintry sonnet]

oh you mean collab skins

yea, you pretty much are boned

[stuck copper]

It's ridiculous really

[wintry sonnet]

I guess that's why they let you farm them from event maps

[stuck copper]

The issue with that though

It still is complete rng

[wintry sonnet]

even though it should be the default option

I mean here's how I'd ideally see it

[stuck copper]

So you can end up just getting boned anyway

[ornate mantle]

I didn't get all the Neptunia shit... but that's because I wasn't too keen on the idea of collectin at the time.

[wintry sonnet]

make it so weapon skins are droppable from event maps at random

but then you can buy the box for 7k

and pick whichever gear skin you want

that would make whole lot of more sense ot me

[stuck copper]

But yeah I have to say though

I don't get why you need to farm it X times

Just because apparently you can only use them on one bote at a time

Seems backward to me

[wintry sonnet]

Guess that's where Destiny 2 got its idea for shaders

[stuck copper]

Yeah like remember when shaders weren't sold for monez

[wintry sonnet]

getting shit for actually playing the game?

what a revolutionary concept

[stuck copper]

Preposterous

They can't do that

No monez in it

[wintry sonnet]

what do they think this is, early 2000?

[stuck copper]

[wintry sonnet]

we can't be using such outdated business models

even if they fucking worked

[stuck copper]

I mean the saying existed for a reason

"If it ain't broke don't fix it"

Apparently it stopped being relevant somewhere down the line

Now they have to fix things that be not broken

[wintry sonnet]

Well, why sell you a round wheel

when you can instead sell a square wheel

and then sell round tires that fit on it

[stuck copper]

Business is the same as ever lol

[cosmic pier]

business is business

they want your money

done

[wintry sonnet]

no shit, everyone wants money

many games want and make money

many games arent pricks about it either

[stuck copper]

That's true

Remember when back in the day

You bought a game

And actually got what you paid for

THE NERVE OF THOSE PEOPLE

[ornate mantle]

I pay for waifus though.

Well not waifus themselves.

[cosmic pier]

well a game I used to play for 2 years apparently wasnt making enough money so they're shutting down

[ornate mantle]

But the Cosmetics.

[wintry sonnet]

honestly, I never thought I'd ever say it

[stuck copper]

You're talking about a F2P game Azu lol

[wintry sonnet]

but there was genuinely a time

I despised subscription-based games

[flat palm]

I have a problem

[wintry sonnet]

now I look at that 15$ a month, look at how much you spend on microtransactions

[dense wing]

I dont buy any skins unless I have extra gems..

[wintry sonnet]

and it's like LOL can we go back to that shit

[stuck copper]

Ikr Aquan

Sure you pay to play the game

But at least you know what you're in for

[dense wing]

I do get gems though but for fr$$

[stuck copper]

With micro transactions now you never know

[flat palm]

All my bb’s are atleast 500k xp over 110 and i got nothing to level besides Cv

[stuck copper]

Especially when triple A games now do them too

[flat palm]

And solo cv gets murderer in sp4

[ornate mantle]

@stuck copper : Exactly, it's F2P... and there's not hardcore lootbox in the game, which means you pay for what you get.

[stuck copper]

No but F2P

HAS to have some form of microtransactions

Or they'd be out of business

[wintry sonnet]

ikr

[flat palm]

Trust me, my mmo isnt any cheaper aran lmao

[stuck copper]

I'm referring to a game you spend full whack for

[flat palm]

I pay 13€ a month

[ornate mantle]

I mean, games back in the day would cost anywhere from $40 to upwards of $80.

[stuck copper]

Only to have half the game missing

[flat palm]

But their p2w outfits are overpriced

And arent Even account wide

[stuck copper]

$40-$80 or

Hundreds or even thousands

[flat palm]

Ff14

[stuck copper]

Due to MT's

I don't really need to explain which costs more

[flat palm]

Fantasia gets really expensive

[stuck copper]

"P2W outfits"

[flat palm]

7 euro each

[stuck copper]

Ermmmmmm

There are no P2W outfits in FFXIV

[ornate mantle]

Exactly... but in both cases, unless you're playing FGO and PAD, you're getting what you're paying for.

Which is the argumnet.

[flat palm]

Would you rather me call them Pay to be cute outfits?

[stuck copper]

P2W implies Pay to Win

[ornate mantle]

Pay to be sexy.

[stuck copper]

There is nothing about them

That makes your gameplay better

It's literally just cosmetics

[ornate mantle]

I think my Lewd Nagato begs to differ.

[stuck copper]

Lol

[wintry sonnet]

honestly, I'm not even that hot on "just cosmetics" argument

[ornate mantle]

LOLOL.

[wintry sonnet]

I only tolerate it if its in a f2p game

[flat palm]

Idk dude i feel like i play better by being a total cutie

[wintry sonnet]

if you demand any kind of money as entry fee or as subscription, fuck off

if you want f2p business model, make a f2p game

[flat palm]

I like looking at myself and thinking "damn im a snack"

[ornate mantle]

No.

[stuck copper]

No but the actual P2W implies shit like Maplestory for anyone who knows how bad it was

Well I say P2W

[ornate mantle]

I'm a s n a c c

[stuck copper]

It's more like P2C

[ornate mantle]

When i was a gradeschooler I players that game.

[flat palm]

Stuff like jump potions are normal in mmo’s now

You can call that p2w

[stuck copper]

Like maple was literally Pay to Compete

That's how bad that was

Jump potions aren't really winning per say though

Sure they boost your level

But that's just because after a certain point

[wintry sonnet]

jump potions in AL would be winning tho

jump over torpedoes

[flat palm]

Even FF has jump potions to skip main story and get a class to 60 instantly + gives you coins and gear

[stuck copper]

The grind is actually stupid

I mean look at WoW for example

Og was 1-60

What's the level cap now

100+ something

[flat palm]

I think they give you 500k coins ontop of a gear set for one jump pot

[stuck copper]

Yeah

But to be honest about it all

It gets to a point where exp wise

It's a joke

I mean look at AL just as an example

100-120 alone is 3x the exp from 1-100

Imagine if they add more and more levels

Then after a while you see how big the gap gets

[flat palm]

Too bad being past 90 literally basicly does nothing

[ornate mantle]

I think what they'll do is make a NL+ option eventually.

[stuck copper]

From what I know

[ornate mantle]

Kind of liek what Call of Duty does to Presiteges.

[stuck copper]

70 atm

[flat palm]

Limited is the newer ones i guess

[stuck copper]

80 in next expan

[flat palm]

And yeah 70

Expac comes in late june

With 80 cap

[wintry sonnet]

to be fair, AL also gives you passive ways of levelling, so you dont feel that exp difference as strongly as you would most games

[stuck copper]

Exactly

[ornate mantle]

Imagine hitting level 120 and then getting an option for NG+

[stuck copper]

They alleviate the grind by making OTHER options

[ornate mantle]

Where it rests you to Level 1+

[stuck copper]

MMO's do not

[wintry sonnet]

I mean shit I put Takago into my dorm like 5-6 days ago at lvl 100

they're already lvl 108

[stuck copper]

MMO's on the other hand

[flat palm]

I dislike how AL gives you less xp for being oil efficient

[wintry sonnet]

just from the 1,2k commi and dorm

[stuck copper]

Require you to actually grind

Oil efficient?

If you're being oil efficient

[ornate mantle]

Do new Commissions open up at Level 90.

[stuck copper]

You'd be doing 10 hour comms

As exp to oil wise

It's the most efficient

[wintry sonnet]

yeah once you hit lvl 100 commander level, you pretty much got access to everything

even before that iirc

[flat palm]

Lvl 90 is kinda nice

[ornate mantle]

It should be before Level 100.

[flat palm]

The lvl 90 comm are good

[ornate mantle]

Level 95 gets you max thing.

But when is the highest level Comm.

[stuck copper]

90

[ornate mantle]

Awesome.

[stuck copper]

That's when you get the best comms

[wintry sonnet]

isn't 95 for Academy?

[ornate mantle]

I'm basically gonna be there tomorrow.

[stuck copper]

Yeah

95 is academy

[wintry sonnet]

I remember having to grind to 95 for something

[ornate mantle]

It was Academy.

[stuck copper]

The issue I find with the game

And it's not a big one

But being oil efficient

Slows down your commander level grind lol

[wintry sonnet]

frankly? I dont think oil efficiency's the problem per se

rather it's that you can't guarantee fixed amount of oil per day

cause of how commissions operate

one day you get showered with oil commissions

other you just get drills

there's no middleground

[ornate mantle]

Going full 6 boat fleet definitely makes things faster.

[stuck copper]

No I mean

[ornate mantle]

But running 70+ oil per battle is costly as all hell.

[stuck copper]

You actively get less exp for your level the less botes you use lol

[wintry sonnet]

tfw nobody ever got A rank on 3 to 5 ships

[stuck copper]

Lol

[cosmic pier]

woohoo

[ornate mantle]

Be the first Quan.

[cosmic pier]

I bagged another planezuna skin

🚮

[ornate mantle]

Walk on untrodden ground.

[wintry sonnet]

nah I was the first already

I was the first to post the full Sp3 drop list

I think they forgot one ship tho, might have to look it up

[ornate mantle]

Show em how it's done by getting the ship their missing.

[wintry sonnet]

yeah they forgot Raleigh

[ornate mantle]

Now get Raleigh from the map.

And put it in Trophy.

[stuck copper]

Lol

[ornate mantle]

What.

[wintry sonnet]

she was in the screenshot I posted

I guess they just missed her

[ornate mantle]

Oh.

I forget Weapon Skins exist sometimes.

I think the only ones that have actively gotten my attention are the Snowball Weapon Skin and the Fakkyu.

Oh.

And the Plane skins for Neptune.

[stuck copper]

None get my attention

[dense wing]

I still need to buy one

[stuck copper]

I've bought none

[dense wing]

but im afraid I will run out of gold, so im saving it for the last few days

[stuck copper]

I'd rather get botes that help then farm for something that does nothing but be there

Still need hiei-chan

[ornate mantle]

Does anyone have the A.I. Nursing Device?

[cosmic pier]

just oath a fire extinguisher and call it hiei chan

[stuck copper]

Lol

[dense wing]

hehe

[wintry sonnet]

we meta bois now

[stuck copper]

[cosmic pier]

🍪

[ornate mantle]

Ahhhh Shit.

[wintry sonnet]

shame you can't work on multiple skills on 1 girl

I wanna go full ham on Zepp

[wintry sonnet]

Guess I'll just bash Hummus with some blue books

[ornate mantle]

I just put in girls at random

[flat palm]

im lvling nep skills atm lol

i ran out of skills to lvl

all my 100+ ships have maxed skills

[wintry sonnet]

funny thing, I finally got my first nep to 100 affection today

[flat palm]

working on black heart graf zeppelin and bb kaga to 110 atm

[wintry sonnet]

after months of being swarmed with new stuff

[ornate mantle]

I don't think I have any Nep at level 100.

[flat palm]

saving every other ship for PR farming

[ornate mantle]

Or even affection up.

[flat palm]

i have ph and bh at 100

only neps i like

[ornate mantle]

Worth.

I'd have them all married.

[flat palm]

i actually have all 4 nep skins

in a ridic way

[ornate mantle]

?

[wintry sonnet]

I'd have only 1 or 2

but fkin lucky bag gave me white heart

[ornate mantle]

I have all 4.

[wintry sonnet]

so I had to end up buying them

[flat palm]

i bought the nep bag that had a guaranteed skin, and it glitched out and somehow i ended up buying two

so i got the bag twice

[wintry sonnet]

and then I figured "I already have 3... eh might as well get the 4th one fuck it"

[flat palm]

and got gh and wh skins in them

[ornate mantle]

Did you pay Tewice?

[flat palm]

but the only skins i wanted was ph and bh so i ended up with all 4

yeah i did

[ornate mantle]

LOL.

[wintry sonnet]

one day

[flat palm]

so what happened was

[cosmic pier]

too poor

[wintry sonnet]

I'll get to lvl 100 100 affection bulin/purin

[flat palm]

i bought it, and got a dev to send me it manually

[wintry sonnet]

one day

[flat palm]

but the bag stayed in the shop

so i bought it again

since it didnt send me the first one

[stuck copper]

I need to work on mine at some point

[ornate mantle]

Yeah, i haven't payed any attention to my neps.

I gotta change that.

[flat palm]

i was kinda new so i thought it was intentional to be able to buy same bag more than once

[stuck copper]

All at 90

5*

Too wazy

[wintry sonnet]

reset in a minute

[flat palm]

ph having 3 red skills is a big fuck you

[wintry sonnet]

can't wait for my suffolks and pensacommons from daily 3 rolls

[stuck copper]

I know that feel Aki

[flat palm]

but atleast the 2d red skill is useless

since it procs after 115s

[ornate mantle]

Alrighty, I stopped playing the game for today.

[flat palm]

or smth

[cosmic pier]

its only 45 t3 red books

[stuck copper]

I experienced it a lot when I was leveling Vicky

[cosmic pier]

nothing much

[stuck copper]

She has 2 but still

When Sirius came out at the same time

That's 3 in one sitting

[flat palm]

tfw black heart barrage is actually good but its 40%

[ornate mantle]

I have 2/3 of the Chinawall skills maxed.

[stuck copper]

Tfw Kizuna BB is actually a strong bote and not a meme bote

[ornate mantle]

I should hammer them all out... and get their levels to 110.

[stuck copper]

Btw Kizuna CA I have something to mention

[ornate mantle]

Honestly, I'm disappointed they made the Kizuna boats good... because future people might not have access to them and that basically locks out a bunch of people from useful content.

[stuck copper]

"For each Kizuna AI in your fleet (excluding this ship) at the start of the battle: increases this ship's FP by 1.5% (6%) (can be stacked up to 4 times.) If there are no other Kizuna AIs in your fleet: decreases the DMG this ship takes by 5% (15%) for 30s after the battle starts."

Now I don't know about you guys

[ornate mantle]

They're not meta defining for sure.

[stuck copper]

But can someone figure out the math for how this works

[cosmic pier]

scammissions

[ornate mantle]

But they're more than usable.

[stuck copper]

"4 stacks"

"Doesn't count self"

"Only 4 kizuna botes"

HMMMMMMMMMMMM

[flat palm]

what gun does PH even use

[stuck copper]

Either someone fucked up on math

[ornate mantle]

What.

[stuck copper]

Or this makes no sense

[ornate mantle]

The fuck.

[flat palm]

it should count herself though?

like amagi

[cosmic pier]

it literally says excludes self if you can read

[stuck copper]

"(excluding this ship)"

[flat palm]

oh

missed that lul

ok yeah thats wtf

[cosmic pier]

maybe the "turns bote into a kizuna faction" item counts for it and they expect you to do that

[dense wing]

12 pulls later and I got anniversary kizuna!!

[stuck copper]

Hmm

That does make sense

[flat palm]

grats kawa

[ornate mantle]

Congrats!

[dense wing]

thanks!

[flat palm]

im gna do a 5 build on special in a few

[dense wing]

now im done

[stuck copper]

Not gonna lie though but CA kizuna is also really good

255 FP for a gunbote

Is hilariously stupid

[flat palm]

whats her other skill?

or is it only the one

[stuck copper]

"Decreases the duration this ship Burns by 3s and decreases the HE DMG it takes by 5% (15%)."

She counters HE botes

[flat palm]

ah

not bad

[ornate mantle]

PVP META>

IS KIZUNA.

[stuck copper]

And considering all DD guns

Are HE used

"Because AP sucks"

[dense wing]

luccsacc?

[flat palm]

basicly just really lucky lol

[ornate mantle]

Yeah.

[dense wing]

[wintry sonnet]

[cosmic pier]

[wintry sonnet]

[cosmic pier]

[flat palm]

[ornate mantle]

[cosmic pier]

2 langleys 1 shropshire 1 lonk island

[wintry sonnet]

gimmie a sec

I dont have enough cubes for 3 rolls

need to do dailies first

[flat palm]

man this always happens

when theres one rate up ship im missing

i get the same rate dupe forever

Hiei is the only one i dont care for too

[wintry sonnet]

Bogue, pensacommon, Shropshire

nothing to see here

[cosmic pier]

1 medal

nice

[wintry sonnet]

wew

Washington

also looks like Sandy ran out of cheaters to ban

[flat palm]

well this sucks

i only have 45 cubes now

after collecting weekly build 10 cubes

i need to go full save mode now

[wintry sonnet]

I'm gonna be so fucked for the next event

[flat palm]

my attempts at getting zeppy and i19 has apparently failed

luckily for us, i think its over a month until next major build event

its probly mikasa

which im planning to skip

[wintry sonnet]

whatever it will be I'm not looking forward to it

[flat palm]

thats most likely glorious

if they released a build only event middle of may

backlash would be harsh

no but like

extreme backlash

[ornate mantle]

I mean, he’s not wrong.

[wintry sonnet]

you can't control if there's backlash or not, but you can control how big it will be

poking at a hornet's nest won't do you any favors in the long run

[ornate mantle]

I don’t even think you can control that.

But, the devs are conscious of their decisions it seems.

[cosmic pier]

glorious would be meme-y

[ornate mantle]

So I’ll trust that they can maneuver it with some “light” tugging by the fan base.

[flat palm]

i mean it is really generous tbf

also weird, every single staff just logged off discord same time

inb4 power outage and this is why i didnt get zeppy

[ornate mantle]

Time for anarchy.
