but i got spooked by a dude

[ornate mantle]

That Blonde Ripped dude I pulled.

Should have been Mama Raikou.

[flat palm]

uh

another gold

dont you love using 10 tickets

and 8 of them are 3* servants

and all dudes

love fgo

[ornate mantle]

I love using all my resources.

To get 3*s in AK.

[warm bluff]

ak gacha is pain

[flat palm]

oh yeah

the 2d gold was a martha

2 gold 4* neither were the only rate up passionlip

alright one multi coming up, i want my sakura face

[ornate mantle]

GL

Passion Lips tiddies are blessed.

[warm bluff]

[flat palm]

looks like a minroll multi lmao

rubbing salt in the wound

[ornate mantle]

Oof

[flat palm]

coming from ak gacha back to this

i remember why i want to quit now

[ornate mantle]

Yeeeeeeeeeeeh.

FGO is a shit game.

[ripe mantle]

apparently there's been two cases of covid-19 here now

[flat palm]

just gonna spend my last sq on 8 singles and stop playing lmao

[ripe mantle]

costco had hundreds of people line out right at closing for stuff they already sold out of

[flat palm]

guess what

the 8 singles had 0 gold cards

not even a 4* ce

[ornate mantle]

Oof

I wonder if I have anything.

[flat palm]

the only thing im sad about giving up by quitting

is my melt and shishou

but you know, i'll live without them

[ornate mantle]

You don't have to quit.

[ripe mantle]

yo udo

its a bad game

[flat palm]

oh no i have to, if i don't the game will keep trying to tempt me

[ornate mantle]

You just have to not care about doing events and shit.

[flat palm]

the only way is to quit for good

[ornate mantle]

Your attachment to the game is fundamentally different from mine.

So do what you need to do ig.

The moment I got Nitocris.

And Sheba.

Is the moment I stopped caring about the game.

[flat palm]

it's not fun to play a game thats permanently behind jp 2 years anyway

[ornate mantle]

Of course not.

[verbal obsidian]

ye im so curious as to why

[ornate mantle]

I'm surprised FGO is as successful as it is.

[verbal obsidian]

fgo nvr had a catch up system

[flat palm]

because of the fateverse

the characters are very popular

no one can deny how bad the game is both to farm in and gacha

[verbal obsidian]

its also not very visually pleasing

[flat palm]

it looks outdated ya

[ripe mantle]

i never liked fate so it was easy not to play lol

[verbal obsidian]

yea well

insert obligatory no u comment

fate didnt like u!

[ripe mantle]

thats fine

[verbal obsidian]

insert buckypride

[ornate mantle]

I like Nitocris.

A LOT.

I don't like the game itself though.

FGO has someone of the literal most boring gameplay i've ever experienced.

[solar fjord]

https://i.redd.it/1afrb7wbq5k41.png

Fgo story is best but it is a grind

[ornate mantle]

I like how every example is SSR or Higher + 1 Elite unit.

FGO story didn't even catch my attention that much.

Because it was tied to how well I could grind.

[solar fjord]

At least 2 of the best stories are in anime form

Babylonian anime
Camelot movies

[flat palm]

im interested in lostbelts

but honestly

i can just watch yt videos

lol

[ornate mantle]

Holy shit I just noticed this.

"Has Skin"

"Has Retrofit"

That Retrofit one is important.

[somber halo]

you're important

[ornate mantle]

Staaaaaaaaaaaahp it you.

[somber halo]

dont let anyone else twll you otherwise

[ornate mantle]

Roger that chief.

[ripe mantle]

Speaking of qol updates to AL

You can now see all retrofits without having them

So you know who specifically has one

[icy plume]

@ornate mantle What filter? is it in game?

[ornate mantle]

Yep.

I actually can't test it out though since I have every Retrofit.

[icy plume]

Oh shit

[ornate mantle]

But its there.

Nevermind, my dupes get filtered in too.

[ornate mantle]

So all the commons I have with retros are shown.

[icy plume]

Oh yea Ishould do Aya

[warm bluff]

i'm missing curacoa, curlew, newcastle, shigure, and yuugure retrofit

i didn't realize i was so far behind

[ornate mantle]

I remember when you were ahead of me.

[warm bluff]

[icy plume]

I just finished Shigure as my last one

[warm bluff]

just did some calculations, eyja has higher theoretical dps than random male character

i need eyja

[icy plume]

random male character?

[warm bluff]

yeah some random 6* guy with a bird

[icy plume]

oh

[next onyx]

Eyja really is amazing. As soon as I got her I rushed her to E2. I would say she was a game changer for me

[ornate mantle]

Eyja and SA are both two of the most incedible game changers.

[warm bluff]

eyja's dps during skill is around twice that of male character

[magic moon]

you have every retrofit, Ranobe? Nice

and yeah, SA is pretty useful himself

[warm bluff]

but he's a guy therefore eyja is instantly better

[magic moon]

I still need to work up a single-target healer better than Hibiscus...

[ornate mantle]

Wait a goddamn second.

Are those PRINTS that I'm paying for in the shop.

What the living fuck.

[warm bluff]

[flat palm]

I dont mind getting pinged for questions or showing me something

But random pings when im not here abit annoying

[warm bluff]

I don't mind getting pinged since i have everything muted anyway

[stuck copper]

i dont mind getting pinged because im on dnd

[ornate mantle]

I don't mind getting pinged because it makes me feel special.

[steep scarab]

[flat palm]

My answer was to poot btw

I always go for manticore in recruit

[steep scarab]

[flat palm]

O

[steep scarab]

i said time to gamble in response to that 50/50 chance

[flat palm]

Did u get meteorite rinky

[solar fjord]

[flat palm]

[solar fjord]

Specter dupe

[flat palm]

[steep scarab]

[solar fjord]

[flat palm]

[steep scarab]

@solar fjord

ill do recruitment prob

later

[flat palm]

Im gonna buy monthly and grab my pity 6* off ifrit and eyja banner i think..

And buy ifrit in shop if i dont get her

Hopefully the pity is eyja

[steep scarab]

i also did 5-10 cm aki

it took awhile

cuz of mephisto

[flat palm]

5-10 was easy compared to some of the other shit

I just had mephisto left at the end trapped in middle between Lappland and siege

[steep scarab]

dun really have good snipers rn so i borrowed rando's BP

[flat palm]

[steep scarab]

i'm still stuck w/ kroos/jess and plat

i really need bp on the next shop reset

[flat palm]

Yeah

I want ifrit and skyfire the most but eyja would be real nice of my pity

Not so much bc i like her

But shes so strong

I'm rolling for schwarz too

[steep scarab]

think ill e2 gummy and cuora

im still lacking in 5*+ defenders

[flat palm]

Poot super f2p

[steep scarab]

like i don't have 5*+ defenders at all

[flat palm]

I got my liskarm from a random defender tag lmao

[steep scarab]

at least 4* ops are cheaper to e2

[flat palm]

Indeed

Dont need chip catalysts

[solar fjord]

Hoping I get a siege from next banner

[flat palm]

Siege is great

My most used operator

Easily

[steep scarab]

my vg department is pretty much good to go

[solar fjord]

If not somehow get enough credit for shop exchange

[flat palm]

Look how much i need casters

[flat palm]

Casters and more snipers

[steep scarab]

think you should be fine w/ exu plat

[flat palm]

Yeah but i dont really like plat that much

Her gameplay kinda boring

I want schwarz or meteorite

[solar fjord]

Need to level firewatch

[steep scarab]

schwarz short ranged

[ornate mantle]

Man.

[steep scarab]

although she has a pretty decent single target dps

[ornate mantle]

5-7 was super annoying because I didn't have a ranged Arts VG to take care of one of the robots.

But I managed to finagle my way through by using... Ifrit!

When those robots start moving through she just obliterates them.

[flat palm]

Schwarz is a boss killer yeah

[steep scarab]

now try w/o sniper/casters

[flat palm]

I have firewatch btw

Shes lvl 1

[ornate mantle]

Is 5-7 CM w/o snipers/casters.

[steep scarab]

ye

[ornate mantle]

Yeaaaaah, maybe in a few months.

[steep scarab]

you need ranged guard and supporter

[ornate mantle]

Well my Pram is E2... so no worries there.

[flat palm]

Istina/ange and SA tbh

[ornate mantle]

I have Lapp, just need to develop her.

[steep scarab]

i would like an istina

[ornate mantle]

I have Istina too.

[steep scarab]

i have ange so ye

[flat palm]

Azu who do u think my pity 6* will be on ifrit banner

Pls say eyja

[ornate mantle]

Are you gonna roll right now.

[steep scarab]

inb4 ifrit

[flat palm]

No

Tomorrow prob

[ornate mantle]

uhhhhh, Pity will prob be Eyja.

[steep scarab]

@flat palm how would you react if you get ifrit?

[flat palm]

Id love it if it was ifrit, since then i could spend certs on saria or angelina

[ornate mantle]

Poot you are now a bad influence.

[steep scarab]

@ornate mantle just pull

[flat palm]

Either eyja or ifrit and im golden

[ornate mantle]

No.

[flat palm]

Either of saria, angie, ifrit or eyja biggest want from standard banner

[steep scarab]

who knows, you might get ifrit and skyfire in one go

[solar fjord]

[ornate mantle]

[ornate mantle]

Her personality is more in line with what I like than Mostima's ngl.

And I love her design overall.

[verbal obsidian]

not sure if this guy was throwing shade at cal or not

[ornate mantle]

Hell i'd say I love her more than Mostima sometimes

[verbal obsidian]

[ripe mantle]

because healers suck

[magic moon]

there was a time when tanks would pause occasionally to make sure their healer had, y'know, some mana

nowadays it's "lol just thin air"

[ripe mantle]

so i just have to main WHM instead of split maining

[magic moon]

spent the night crafting 480 healing gear

[ripe mantle]

i already have the next tier

[magic moon]

[ripe mantle]

cant even clear E5S as dps

plus eye rings

[flat palm]

most the "good" looks on cat are limited to a few things only

so most end up looking the same

[magic moon]

I enjoy crafting, honestly

[ripe mantle]

dragon eye rings are cute

its hard to give that up

[flat palm]

i like crafting, i dont like gearing up and melding for crafting

[ripe mantle]

honestly im not good enough at red mage to do the rest alone lmao

so we could just go gunbreaker + rdm or healer

i mean i still love melt

im just sick of fgo

lol

yes.. lmao

way over

[warm bluff]

I got vulcan from yesterday's senior operator tag

[flat palm]

you'll be fine

whos vulcan again

[warm bluff]

Defender who can't be healed

[stuck copper]

35 cost Defender

flat girl defender

Who can solo

[flat palm]

ohh

[stuck copper]

The issue though

[steep scarab]

she can't be healed

[stuck copper]

Is that she has guaranteed tags that don't need senior op

[flat palm]

lmao wtf

im sorry inaba, thats a garbage pull

[stuck copper]

Which means he wasted a potential tag unironically

She's actually not garbage

[flat palm]

she sounds garbo

[stuck copper]

She can literally solo

Big bob

[flat palm]

alot of stuff can do that tho

[warm bluff]

Lots of things can solo big bob

[stuck copper]

"A tank"

[warm bluff]

[stuck copper]

Not when it's a tank you're referring to

Guard units yes

Tanks no

what?

which tank can single-handedly take down big bob?

[flat palm]

paying 35 dp to have my defender solo something doesnt uhm

[stuck copper]

Vulcan can

[flat palm]

really sound too tempting

[stuck copper]

She can solo lanes

[flat palm]

so id have to pass on that

[stuck copper]

I think you're underestimating what she can do significantly

[warm bluff]

[flat palm]

https://gamepress.gg/arknights/sites/arknights/files/2019-10/char_163_hpsts_1.png

this one cal

[stuck copper]

i know

that wasn't my point though

[warm bluff]

Oh no

Her base skill is completely useless

[flat palm]

[stuck copper]

her stats look nasty

820 attack power tank

Yeah and she gets a skill which buffs that further

While being AoE

offense mode let's her deal 1k hits at e2 40

And healing on hit

Oh and passive health regen while said skill is up

i'd say she's better than cuora. takes a bit more damage in guard mode but deals a good amount as well. offensive mode just wrecks.

Like her actual good atk stat

Means most units that would stack up normally

Are instantly dead in a few hits

her attack is absurdly high for a tank

Yup

you can reasonably expect to run an e2 unit at level 40, which gives her more attack than melantha

Not to mention at 3 pot with full trust she has 4328 hp

which scales with her passive recovery

a completely absurd tank when paired with e2 perfumer

i want her

She has guaranteed tags

Survival and Defense from memory

[steep scarab]

vulcan can't be healed tho

[stuck copper]

"but Angelina and Perfumer's passive heal to works on her."

Incorrect my good friend

[steep scarab]

oh you mean indirect healing?

[stuck copper]

Yes

Indirect healing does in fact apply

it does

perfumer also heals tentacles

which can't be healed by allies

[steep scarab]

but it says

[stuck copper]

Healed directly

Is what it means

It's weird

But that's how the game works

healers will ignore her, but lavender will still affect her

Because the others are classed as traits

Not heals

[steep scarab]

mm interesting

[stuck copper]

See if you read sora

[steep scarab]

and well considering sora's heal is a direct heal

[stuck copper]

The reason she doesn't work is because like healers

She says in her traits

"Heals units"

While perfumer and angelina are talents

Not traits

So aren't subject to the same rules as traits are

[steep scarab]

fair enough i guess

[stuck copper]

Cause this is Sora's trait

"Does not attack
Heal all allies in range
(Equal to 10% of attack power every second)"

[steep scarab]

ye

[stuck copper]

"Heal friendly unit"

Any healing unit

[steep scarab]

[stuck copper]

See

There are interesting combos most don't know exist

[steep scarab]

[stuck copper]

i'll just do a test run with estelle. if she gets healed, vulcan should get healed.

all i know is that tentacles get healed.

so it makes sense to me that vulcan gets healed as well.

Yeah and I used perfumer a lot in the day

Ironically btw

[steep scarab]

also i heard

there's a new ceylon-like healer

[stuck copper]

Fun fact about them

They're better than Ceylon by a landslide

Despite being 4*

[stuck copper]

okay. no testing. estelle requires e1. that's more than i'm willing to spend.

Yeah you mean Purestream poots

She's a better Ceylon

[steep scarab]

ye

[stuck copper]

Ceylon also sucks because she has a passive that never works because no maps outside of the event she was in even have water tiles

[steep scarab]

purestream

[stuck copper]

Both of her skills are hella strong btw

First skill heals for about 1200 hp at max rank

To everyone in her range

[steep scarab]

[ornate mantle]

AK does burn you out pretty fast.

If you’re hitting the accelerator all the way through.

[verbal obsidian]

Just gonna slow down in both cause I dont necessarily wanna stop playing both, but i can tell the burn out you mentioned is coming quick

[verbal obsidian]

Probably will give it a try either today or sometime this week

I've nvr even tried playing ff14 so it'll be interesting

[stuck copper]

ff14 is slow af

it doesn't get good until later

his fame was built when he started with nsfw

Well now you do.

you should since he loods your fav charas

Did he lood Swire yet.

[grand dew]

nah mostly FGO crap nowadays

[stuck copper]

i forgot hews existed

now i know why

[verbal obsidian]

idk why i argue with ppl on the internet, especially with children lol

I gotta stop getting involved in some of these dumb chats on other servers

Kid goes "all gachas are scams and are made to manipulate and steal money"

smfh

[lament flower]

aren't most chats online dumb anyways

[verbal obsidian]

true

i'll let u slide aran

[grand dew]

@stuck copper yeah forgotten

[warm bluff]

Gacha games do use some pretty predatory methods to earn money

[grand dew]

their rolls/pulls are based on casino with their animation like those in lootbox

[warm bluff]

[verbal obsidian]

i'm not saying what was is wrong

but to say they go in to intentionally prey on people is wrong lol

mobile games can only survive via gacha and most dont even last

[ornate mantle]

There are definitely mobile games that are very predatory in nature, don't forget.

But yeah, arguing on the internet is about as productive as sticking my finger into a hornets nest.

[verbal obsidian]

Right sorry let me re-phrase

To lump them as a whole and to say all gachas are evil was a poor argument

I mostly got upset because he said he quit AK saying it was preying on its users and then he went on his long rant

A college student complaining about a gacha stealing his little to no money

sounds more like hes just stupid

[ornate mantle]

Probably just pissed that he didn't get Ch'en.

[grand dew]

then don't make mobile games based on gacha ? might as well not even waste resrouces knowing it'd die in less than a year

[verbal obsidian]

sometimes you come up with an idea and you think its gonna be great with said gacha system

[ornate mantle]

Who are you arguing against.

[verbal obsidian]

turns out game is poop

it happens

[grand dew]

@ornate mantle you

[ornate mantle]

You bastard.

LOL

[flat palm]

Fuck yourself

[ornate mantle]

What you did was just make your wallet go full throttle and crash.

[verbal obsidian]

how about both

[flat palm]

Ey

Fk you

[verbal obsidian]

LOL

[flat palm]

[verbal obsidian]

ye in aran's case

the game didnt prey on him

he went full need for speed

[grand dew]

[verbal obsidian]

[solar fjord]

[stuck copper]

it's a slippery slope

we have trading card games, which are arguably worse

because some of these have actual value, giving the whole thing real gambling potential

yeah, i was primarily talking about MTG

[solar fjord]

yeah i used to play magic and that got me back into pokemon cards
years ago. spent $200-$400 an expansion on just buying packs

stopped playing magic

[stuck copper]

if you happen to watch rudy, you know how much of a rabbit whole that thing is

and that shit has been going on for ages now

[solar fjord]

the thrill of opening a pack of cards , can be worse than pushing a button on a pokie machine

[stuck copper]

nobody did a damn thing

gotta get those juicy mythics

[ornate mantle]

I used to be in TCGs.

So fucking glad I left that shit behind me.

[stuck copper]

i quit several times. last time was around guildpact, i think.

ravnica was fucking dope

[solar fjord]

but then i got into the pokemon TCGO and ended up spending $100-$200 on codes each expansion off ebay

[ornate mantle]

I started with Yugioh... Then I went to Magic... then I went to Vanguard... then I went to my favorite TCG called Z/X... then I went back to YGO for a short time because my friend wanted someone to play with... then my friend went Rando on YGO and I dipped the fuck out of that.

[solar fjord]

Z/X i want the Azur Lane cards

[ornate mantle]

I still have my full JP Z/X deck.

[solar fjord]

could never find any single cards or packs in japan

[stuck copper]

i don't blame you

[verbal obsidian]

yeah thats a good counter argument Cal

might use this next time

[stuck copper]

affinity decks were cancer

[grand dew]

but you are comparing physical cards vs mobile gacha where you can't sell that shit

[stuck copper]

and in private, we didn't have any specific rules, so my asshole friend made an affinity deck that used tinker and darksteel colossus.

or just affinity, which was already enough

because it generated a billion mana in a few turns

the point is

physical card games won't be banned

and they're probably worse

so why would one expect gacha to get banned?

because the industry will simply take that route and say "it's basically like card games"

[ornate mantle]

You can sell gacha.

[stuck copper]

well, you can sell accounts, yeah

[ornate mantle]

Mhm.

I hate TCGs.

Never again.

[stuck copper]

the card game thing i heard a lawyer talk about. that's why i am 99% sure it won't go anywhere. they already had a case ages ago, and card games won.

[ornate mantle]

of course. Banning a gacha is a futile effort.

[stuck copper]

it's really complicated

[magic moon]

I don't think that you should -ban- gacha. At the same time, the idea that you can take a game that wouldn't have sold for $20 five years ago, and add a gambling mechanic and get people to spend $500 on it, is not something that's good for the gaming industry as a whole

[stuck copper]

because even if you say "at least card games give you something physical", the experience and the service of being able to use a certain unit can be considered a thing of value

[magic moon]

I mean, I enjoy plenty of gacha games, but I'm older and very conservative with my spend on 'em.

I think Azur does a fantastic job of making the -game- part of it very non-predatory

[stuck copper]

i mean, pulling from a gacha is exciting. i enjoy it.

[magic moon]

I also think that Granblue, while being more gacha-focused, has hit the point where it has a lot of padding on the sharp corners

[stuck copper]

you gotta give em that.

[grand dew]

that's what they are gong for the "exciting" part

its like you do slot machine

[magic moon]

Yeah, but if you justify it by "gambling is fun" you also have to deal with "and it's SUPER ILLEGAL in a lot fo places"

[grand dew]

you pull the lever and wait for the rng and see what you get

[magic moon]

And saying "well, it's not real gambling because you lose 100% of the time in that you don't get anything of actual value" is not a wonderful defense of the practice.

[stuck copper]

there isn't really anything wrong with that per se. it's the potential for exploitation that's the issue imho

i think you have to focus on the problematic bits

because gacha as a whole does not need a defense, imho

it's an established model

tcgs, toy capsules, etc

[grand dew]

it does not. which is why japan is addicted to gacha

[magic moon]

Yeah, but exactly how problematic is problematic?

[stuck copper]

it's like alcohol over here. it's the worst, but its consumption is part of our culture. it will never go away.

[grand dew]

there was a guy that spent 10s of thousands ? on GBF for a unit. which they never got

[stuck copper]

so you need to get away from strong sanctions, like bans

[ornate mantle]

I wonder if gacha is what makes the birth crisis in japan so severe.

[grand dew]

it was reported on jp news

[stuck copper]

because those will never happen

[ornate mantle]

Man, JP news is probably lax.

[stuck copper]

regulation should be a-okay tho

[magic moon]

Hyuon, oh yeah. Granblue used to be -really terrible- like that. Like, they did a rate up and it was "lol it is .002% insteaad of .001%"

[solar fjord]

gacha is just a by product of what was already there like arcade games
dance,rhythm games,claw machines

[ornate mantle]

I've always been for minimal micromanagement.

[grand dew]

yeah 100% of .001 is .002!

[magic moon]

After that, they reformed it quite a bit... published rates, lots of "buy a 10-spin and just pick a free thing that you want too"

[stuck copper]

i think we could do a lot just by adjusting age limits

[grand dew]

i think the guy also got some refund or w/e

[magic moon]

like, just put a "you must be 18" on the label and then if people lie, live with it?

[ornate mantle]

I like that idea.

[magic moon]

Hyuon, well, now, if you do 300 spins, they say "okay, we give up, just take what you want"

[stuck copper]

if they do it properly, you can't really circumvent it that easily

like over here, where you have to provide ID

[magic moon]

and that's still kind of awful because, seriously, that's -$900-

[ornate mantle]

No matter how many bans and regulations you put... people will still make shitty decisions.

[magic moon]

but they hand out a ton of free spins too.

[stuck copper]

yeah, they will

[magic moon]

and it's not like "hey, spend some money" is wrong. I mean, I play FF14, I probably spend $250/yr on it

[stuck copper]

and even if you enforce age limits, kids would still be able to buy pokemon cards, and then EA would be like "why can't we sell ultimate team packs to kids then?"

it's a can of worms

and over here, gambling is legal, so don't expect anything from our government

[magic moon]

I just think that we shouldn't let our value proposition -totally normalize- the practice. I mean, it's not wrong to take your gacha spend and think "how many AAA titles with all the DLC could I buy with this" and act accordingly.

[stuck copper]

they don't give a fuck if you ruin yourself

[ornate mantle]

This is what happens when we take self-agency out of the equation.

[magic moon]

But for Azur... hell, I'll just occasionally buy some gems

[ornate mantle]

We get overregulation.

[grand dew]

can't blame on "us/self control"

they target the weak with phycological mechanics

[stuck copper]

yeah, the main argument seems to be that there are people who can't help themselves

but then again, should everybody else really have to hold their hands all the time?

i find that difficult

[magic moon]

It's not wrong to argue that people oughta be personally responsible

[stuck copper]

i mean, they won't stop selling alcohol just because you're an alcoholic

[grand dew]

i guess we are ? more and more gov are pushing ban of "lootbox" style mechanics in games

[ornate mantle]

Regardless of how many people there are with weak self-control, it's not the governments responsibility to regulate that.

[stuck copper]

that's your problem, and you need to learn to cope with it

i am not allowed to play mmos, so i won't. i can do that just fine.

[magic moon]

But even beyond personal responsibility, I can say "this particular crap crosses a line and I don't wanna step beyond it, even though I've got the finances and self-control to tank the hit if I wanted to"

[ornate mantle]

Well yes, but that's not a problem of the gacha aspect itself... that's a "This company has shit game model."

[grand dew]

but we also got the argument about why is this mechanic in my AAA game?

[stuck copper]

yeah

that shit needs to go

[grand dew]

i payed full price and i don't need card packs

[stuck copper]

i am almost fine with outlawing mtx in a game that cost money upfront lmao
