[onyx moth]

good to know

[rain forge]

🤫

[magic sundial]

Basically some operators basically deal 4x the damage as other operators and have more utility, allowing them to solo stages in a lot of cases
But that doesn't mean the other ones are "bad", they're just "bad" in relation to the broken ones

[onyx moth]

like in the different stages or in general

[magic sundial]

In general

[burnt tree]

at least use the girl before giving opinion 😔

[magic sundial]

Like for example wisadel has invis, tanks, slows, and deals some of the highest damage nukes in the game

[rain forge]

my information comes from you all

[wispy peak]

is hoshi alter worth pulling?

[ancient lotus]

yes

[magic sundial]

So if I had to compare wisadel is like placing down 5 caster amiyas or more lol

[onyx moth]

Please dont tell me lappland is bad too I really like her skill

[wispy peak]

which one?

[ancient lotus]

lappland alter the caster is one of the better ones

[rain forge]

Not worth levelling past e1 level 1

[onyx moth]

wdym

[magic sundial]

She's mid, her skill is always useful for stages with explode-on-death mobs tho
I also leveled her to E2 and even put module and I had a good time, but it's not optimal

[onyx moth]

My last 5 days grinding are a lie

[ancient lotus]

the 5 star guard is not really comparable to the meta ops

doesnt mean shes unusable tho

[burnt tree]

wait what i mean lappland is a decent unit early game

[magic sundial]

I mean my personal opinion is that you should balance being optimal with having fun

you learn a lot more about strategy by having dogshit units as well

[rain forge]

early game e1l1 should be enough for lappy

[onyx moth]

I have fun when im winning tho xD

[ancient current]

there are two lapplands

[magic sundial]

ah fair enough, then yeah just follow the advice of this channel 100% then xd and you'll win with the least effort possible

[burnt tree]

e1 1 is such a scuffed threshold for lapp wtf

[onyx moth]

I mean I have her at e1 lvl 35 thats not too bad ig

[burnt tree]

like you either e1 40-50 sl7 her to serve as your early game lord, or just use midnight and keep her at e0

[onyx moth]

works for story episode 5

[burnt tree]

e1 lv1 is really the worst of both world because you just have her deal shit damage instead

[rain forge]

honestly I only used her as a silence bot

[magic sundial]

yeah you should never keep operators at E1 lvl 1 or E2 lvl 1, just pump at least 20 extra levels in there cuz it costs next to nothing

[rain forge]

sash did all the heavy lifting for me early game

[onyx moth]

the other one is better right can I get her right now?

[abstract mauve]

nope

[rain forge]

Other one is miles better but is a limited

she’ll only be available as an off rate during celebration limited banners

[onyx moth]

I should have started earlier fu

[magic sundial]

should've been born 1M years ago u missed out on a lot

u wouldn't believe it people made tools out of stone n shit

[onyx moth]

nahh thats crazyy

[rain forge]

Was lappy2 released with siracusano or the other one

[abstract mauve]

the other one

[burnt tree]

siracusano was texas

[rain forge]

I see

[onyx moth]

yo

would you bet on me only leveling up bad 5 stars

[magic sundial]

you shouldn't level 5 stars in general tbh
most of them

[onyx moth]

why tho

[magic sundial]

same as always, some are just way better
personally I like leveling 5 stars and playing them and having the variety

[onyx moth]

they are impossible to get tho

[magic sundial]

you can get kroos alter for free in side story content
she's a good 5*

[ancient current]

already 2 of the good ones are welfares

[magic sundial]

and uh tequila I think, idk I didn't get him I played with other stuff instead

[onyx moth]

I looked at the wrong thing

[ancient current]

you get 2 more good ones from tickets

[onyx moth]

5 Stars I only have amiya lappland and red

[magic sundial]

that's not bad
you can make that work with good strategy

[onyx moth]

but I have two 6 stars too

[ancient current]

lappy is fine to e1

pretty much it

[magic sundial]

whomst

[onyx moth]

saria and Silverash

[magic sundial]

both are good
level them up broski

[rain forge]

projekt red is 🚮

[solemn void]

Which 4 and/or 5* ops are a must for IS6?

[magic sundial]

she's a fast redeploy tho which is useful

[onyx moth]

I mean her stun is useful

[ancient current]

she works at e0 lv1

[rain forge]

doesn’t matter if she’s mid

just use gravel if you need a frd

[onyx moth]

which one first?

[magic sundial]

also idk I feel like strategy wise I could've done a lot with a project red, canceling some channeled enemies and such

[onyx moth]

uhh I kinda have both build a bit

[magic sundial]

DPS first always (if you wanna be optimal), so silverash

[frail thunder]

https://is-central.github.io/is6-sui/low-rarity-recommendations/

click the ops to see what elite level you should have them cause some of them are just there cause of Yan faction

[ancient current]

saria's breakpoint is e1 because she uses s1
silverash needs e2 so you can focus on him after E1 50 both

[worthy gyro]

drop stun is pretty handy imo
especially with things like the sarkaz chain casters in the early chapters

[ancient current]

but you can leave saria at e1 for a while

[burnt tree]

think of it this way,
4* cost 2 resources to raise, with performance being 3/10
5* cost 4 resources to raise, with performance power being 4/10
6* cost 6 resources to raise, with performance power being 10/10
because you have limited resource, you'd rather fueling your resources into 6* instead

[onyx moth]

okay good so I can just focus on silverash

[onyx moth]

Seems logical

[waxen wasp]

but also sometimes:
4 Ethan & Myrtle costs 2 resources with performance being 11/10

[magic sundial]

I honestly prefer saria S2 for most things (since usually I only put defenders down if things can 1 shot other ops) but yah sometimes S1 is goated

[rain forge]

and sometimes 6* carnelian costs 6 materials and is a 1/10

[ancient current]

saria s2 works when the healing pressure is as important as 0-1, ya

[burnt tree]

in addition, instead of investing fully, you could invest half by keeping a unit at e1
in this case, 4* is worth it - they cost 1 resources for a 2/10 performance

[magic sundial]

saria S2 vs one-shot abilities, S1 otherwise

[onyx moth]

thats what I did up to now

[worthy gyro]

saria s2 seems nice for incidental healing, when a unit might get poked occasionally but not enough to mandate a full-time healer

[onyx moth]

Btw Is it really bad that I use both saria and gummy

[magic sundial]

it still heals a lot, it's only like half of S1
and it's AoE

[frail thunder]

It also has a massive range

[ancient current]

saria s2 is fine when you're lazy to put down medics and you get mild healing pressure in a large zone
tldr use medics idk

[worthy gyro]

the massive range makes it fantastic for incidental healing, yee
the flexibility you get in her placement is fun

[magic sundial]

She's much more flexible than medics due to being melee
But yes

[ancient current]

the awesome flexibility when she procs skill on cuora taking 1 dmg from a dog just before big bob beats her ass

[magic sundial]

that's every healer tho xd but yes

[wind blade]

big bob defeating cuora? fake news

[ancient current]

no because every healer has consistent healing

(and actually good healing)

but anyways

[burnt tree]

tbf a lot of 6* dps nowday have some kind of sustain in their kit (like literally every single one for the past 2 years) which allow them to get away without a dedicated medic

[magic sundial]

I think you shit on saria S2 too much, her S2 healing is pretty good actually
obviously not medic tier but still good
It's just like 8 SP or something

[burnt tree]

someone in hg have been pushing the bard propaganda for sure 😔

[ancient current]

just use saria however u want
if u see s2 doesn't work, switch skill
it's that shrimple
ur not limited to 1 attempt per stage

[wind blade]

you don't often need a more tanky defender, so having 2 healing defenders instead is perfectly fine and pretty nice to have

[magic sundial]

thank god for that change btw holyy
1 sanity on loss was annoying af restarting the game perma

[magic sundial]

are bards considered bad

[abstract mauve]

generally yes

[magic sundial]

I tried using the free one from story and her atk inspiration skill only lasts 5 second (on 2x speed) and I was like wha

[ancient current]

bards are kinda like duelist defenders except a bit less shit
(the archetype)

it's more like worthless than plain bad tbh

[burnt tree]

most bard are kinda bad yeah, only skadi have some kind of relevancy and she's kinda mid (derogatory)

i just use bard because with all the role compression nowaday even a bard is enough to act as 'sustain'

[keen anvil]

Biggest difference is that bards have potential and duelist defenders don't

[ancient current]

hear me out on aurora...

[magic sundial]

bards are healers for sure yah

[burnt tree]

but yes, as rechord said, bard are lowkey just worthless, their stat are normally too low for anything decent to happen

[waxen wasp]

unless you use them on drone casters

[burnt tree]

i still love skalter though, she's a really comfy pick

[keen anvil]

One day we'll get an actually good bard trust 🙏

[magic sundial]

wouldn't it be good to do bard stacking on like uhhh kroos2 or something
idk xd

[keen anvil]

Yes but that's a terrible strategy

[wind blade]

this would require using multiple bards, which is equivalent to throwing the game

[ancient current]

some duelist defenders have niche uses but they are generally just bad,
which is one similarity they have with bards where they also have niche uses (heidi, sora) but that's it, they're generally not worth a slot in your team

[prisma thorn]

but why would you allocate an operator just for kroos2

[burnt tree]

multiple bards doesn't stack, that's kinda their whole identity

[magic sundial]

no I mean high attacks per second character

[ancient lotus]

just use someone like warf instead of a bard

[ancient current]

because quilon is tanky as fuck and if you keep getting spammed with supporter tickets and are hope starved you cannot do it another way

[burnt tree]

i know you're trust trying to showcase aurora but this has to be the worst way to defend a unit 😭

[magic sundial]

idk a good 6* high attacks per second character

[rain forge]

Exu2

[magic sundial]

oh yeah her

[burnt tree]

i bet half the people doesn't know what happen in that vid and just assume aurora has regen relic

[ancient lotus]

Sakiko

[wind blade]

her greatest skill: doing literally nothing

[magic sundial]

Doesn't exu1 have more attacks per second tho?
Exu2 hits like a truck tho

[rain forge]

Exu1 is dogshit

[magic sundial]

Yeah but I'm talking purely attacks per second on a 6*

[ancient current]

oh you meant hitcount. uhhhh jessalt s2?

less than exu1 but ya

[magic sundial]

Wait really? damn

[ancient current]

i mean yeah she hits fast

[keen anvil]

Sakiko as cube mentioned

[ancient current]

oh, ash s2

[magic sundial]

SPOILERS=BAND!!!!!

[keen anvil]

?

[burnt tree]

ling s3 with 4 dragons

[magic sundial]

just joking that sakiko isn't released yet

[keen anvil]

Bro hit a bit too much of that devil's lettuce
Wait can I say that?

[magic sundial]

I will allow it

[burnt tree]

that's true aoe 8 hit per seconds, i think the highest of all operators (assuming no aspd relics)

[ancient current]

just use DoT

[magic sundial]

damn I wish I had her for the damn IS6 things

hate being strong and losing to not having la pluma or ethan or whatever

[burnt tree]

i think a lot of people forgot that ling release during the event where hitcount enemies were first a thing, so of course her s3 are designed to payola it

[whole abyss]

This is random but you guys know how muelsyse can copy an operator's damage type? What happens if we clone a medic (incantation medics excluded) since they don't really do damage?

[burnt tree]

they do damage equal to atk stat, heal is part of their trait

[whole abyss]

What is their damage type though?

[magic sundial]

I assume physical since that's probably the default

[wind blade]

I think incantation do arts, forgot what regular do

[burnt tree]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lcFggTiXpjk
here's a video

[prisma thorn]

arts
same for bards as well etc

[ancient current]

if a damage type cannot be copied, it defaults to arts

[whole abyss]

Ohhh

[ancient current]

https://arknights.wiki.gg/wiki/Flowing_Shape

[burnt tree]

does the sui sibling follow a naming scheme of some sort? and what is it?

[ancient current]

by release date?

[kindred root]

When in doubt ethan s1

[burnt tree]

just in general

[ancient current]

#ak-lore might have an answer

[burnt tree]

all road lead to that channel 😔

[hidden nacelle]

let me know if you find an answer

[loud cargo]

Would starting arknights now or when the anniversary happens so I can reroll for the limited character a better idea?

[frank kraken]

I take some dragon feet for 30 ingots in IS6 and think it’s some helper but it some shit just spawning leg on my units and kill my brain, what is this thing for?

[ancient current]

if you start right now and reroll for mlynar, then bank up everything for hoshi, that'd technically be an even better start
rerolling is optional anyway, but what you could do if you really want to push it is start now with mlynar and turbo save for hoshialt/haruka
worst case scenario you don't get hoshi/haruka and you end up rerolling there instead, after having accumulated early game knowledge already
up to you

[ancient current]

that's for ed2 iirc

[loud cargo]

hmm alright, one final question is what would you think would be an estimate for the amount of pulls id have if I did turbo save everything I could with a new account till the anniversary banner?

[ancient current]

that depends quite a lot on how much you play until around jan 16, which is our anniversary date (but the event can happen a bit before or a bit after this date)
you have a pulls calculator in pins

usually around 100 pulls is the safe bet
average 6* drop is 35, but considering this is an average, it may take more or less
just accumulate as much as you can, don't pull at all before hoshialt since nothing is interesting before that aside from the mlynar reroll and the 6* from beginner banner, and that'd be good already

[frank kraken]

I just hate it it’s impossible to play

[kindred root]

Dont forget free pulls on hoshi banner too

[ancient current]

if you aren't going for ed2, just...don't take the hand

[frank kraken]

Just ruin everything, spawn just for fun when all units in 1 spot and it spawn directly on my tragedia that stay alone for kilometre

[loud cargo]

Alrighty then, ill be stuck in reroll hell for today then, since I do wanna play a lot actually, mainly also cause I started playing so I can really get into arknights as a whole since I wanna play arknights endfield with some knowledge on the game universe

[ancient current]

btw the hand target prio is most units around itself > bottom of the map > bottom left of the map

[frank kraken]

I think there is different timelines or no?

[frank kraken]

I just get very bad map

[loud cargo]

Yeah ive been told, different world too, but i still wanna learn it regardless

[ancient current]

the timeline is different, yes, but arknights already familiarises you with the world and the concepts
it's essentially a continuation so it helps regardless

[loud cargo]

also wait not diff timelines, just far into the future im pretty sure

[severe crypt]

#ak-lore can help you out with that, and/or the endfield server

[burnt tree]

endfield is 150 years after og game

[loud cargo]

Yeah

[ancient current]

either way, moving on

[frank kraken]

Where the leg stays there was only tragodia I intentionally remove everyone else

[round turtle]

Whats the next banner

[ancient current]

should be hoshialt

[waxen wasp]

but around ~10-11 days later, dead month still

[ancient current]

possibly

[round turtle]

She’s skippable?

[ancient current]

she's the least skippable in the next 6 months

[abstract mauve]

how built is your account?

[round turtle]

Wait she’s good? Looked like shes mid

[coarse notch]

shes great

[round turtle]

Very

[abstract mauve]

she's the only defender you will be drafting in IS once she releases soo

[ancient current]

surtr talent + great tankiness + 230k damage
that isn't mid

[round turtle]

Oh…..

[abstract mauve]

• good range

[coarse notch]

only pattern i know is that they all have one character names

[round turtle]

How about sash alter?

[abstract mauve]

sash2 is good but we dont know how good exactly yet till that's tested in a CC enviroment. prama2 is peak afk unit

[round turtle]

[frail thunder]

Are the pick3 banners usually different for global?

[keen anvil]

Yes

[ancient current]

did we ever even have one that remained unchanged

[hexed adder]

The first one maybe, idr remember tho. (The bigshots still there atleast) after that just disaster

[burnt tree]

how often does a cc even come around, it's been forever

[tidal pond]

What's the intended clear for rhine guardians without a detector like ines?

[coarse notch]

used to be more often, now its about every half year

[burnt tree]

i see, iirc this dev news cycle doesn't have cc though so 😔

[coarse notch]

block to reveal then pillar them

[ancient current]

(rhine guardians is one of the stages where you just reroll or avoid it)

[coarse notch]

ideally you pull up with chalice and 2k or 3k but its very rough yea

[frank kraken]

We know which heroes will be after Mlynar? It’s possible for example Ines?

[modern pivot]

Story gets quiet hard

[coarse notch]

until it shows up in #game-news we can't predict future shoperators

[modern pivot]

[ancient current]

we do not have visibility on standard operators
we know roughly when to expect them based off cn's schedule, but ours differs sometimes so we don't really know
standard rotating banners like mlynar's, however, we have zero clue

next limited is hoshialt though

[tidal pond]

3k? Ingots?

[coarse notch]

they tend to show up around 2 years after their debut but other than that we dont know the exact order or dates

[coarse notch]

150 ingot chalice + 2 or 3 kings relics

[sinful gull]

only been using 3* + shaw + amiya so far... will I be able to beat story mode like this or will i need to upgrader higher star units?

[undone portal]

rhine guardians is kinda an instant leak without ines
mon3tr can camp right side if that helps

[coarse notch]

check newbie voucher and teambuilding links in pins

[frank kraken]

I just cannot decide buy Mlynar or keep for pulls cause have leizi2 and already have around 120 pulls and probably beside ani will pull on collab too, but cause new acc surely will get 50+ till any and then question if it’s more valuable to get Mlynar in such situation or to get new heroes

[undone portal]

advice is to get mlynar regardless of literally anyone else you have

[tidal pond]

My strategy has been to burden myself from the very beginning and speedrun 4k with lamp before actually doing any nodes properly, does this fall off at higher difficulties?

[coarse notch]

the f5 maps are all fine if your run has gone smoothly until then
at least for snp and gvg

[hidden nacelle]

lezi is really good. mylnar is another lezi. two really good > one really good

[frank kraken]

But it is possible that will come some Ines or will not have enough pulls for some good banner later on because buy him rn

[coarse notch]

speedrunning kings is fine if you refresh low value nodes but if you're going for ed4/5 its very hard to get scale your squad power with each floor if you do that

[ancient wind]

Is there some kind of diagram where I can view the chronology of all the story lines? The game seems to show when certain stories start in comparison to other story lines, but I can’t view the whole selection at once

[undone portal]

sorta punished for rushing lampwishes on highdiff since you still need to draft ops

[ancient current]

ines was a shoperator not that long ago. highly unlikely she'll come again anytime soon

[coarse notch]

if you're playing flingers you need an agent + e2 kaltsit/krooster + amiya + ideally greyyalt by the time you reach f4

[undone portal]

doesnt matter if youve finished hand + 4k, wis'adel isnt soloing floor4

[coarse notch]

rushing kings early means you lose hope, also you need to maximize the amount of command exp you get before petal cooks you

[ancient current]

more of a question for #ak-lore
there was one on reddit, forgot which post it was though

[ancient wind]

Sorry

[tidal pond]

How are the sarkaz king relics? I've found you can satisfy conditions for both king and sarkaz king if you have the relic that makes max health = 1

[undone portal]

finding said relic is rng, and needs to happen after you hit lv6 because earlier levels will give you max lp and fuck it up

[coarse notch]

too inconsistent, you need the max hp = 1 relic after you get command level 6 and you lose 3 nodes refreshing for it which is run ending if you're playing high diff

its a win more relic if you're playing ingot talons mostly

https://is-central.github.io/is5-sarkaz/sniper-med-rosmontis/
id recommend reading this if you're interested in higher end optimization

[burnt tree]

which story?

[tidal pond]

I've read on Reddit that you can beat ending 4 by just leaking phase 1 boss, is this true?

[coarse notch]

theres more guides on boat jumping, yato sescort, and gvg if those interest you

[undone portal]

theres even a lore file unlocked by clearing it this way

[burnt tree]

leaking phase 1 boss unironically easier 😔

[coarse notch]

if you're playing 245 tho leaking quilon is a pretty bad idea

[burnt tree]

idk if there's a reliable way to gather shield in is5 though

[tidal pond]

What's 245?

[formal shadow]

Lingerers:

[coarse notch]

there is, get anchor and the relic that gives shield on inspire usage and you spam shields

[undone portal]

stacking 31lp is significantly easier than . everything going on with quilon phase2
leaking quilon on 245 has to mean going to amiya heavily damaged ofc

[coarse notch]

doing ending 2, 4, and 5 in one run

[formal shadow]

Yeah is5 is one of the easier ones to get a shield stack going

[burnt tree]

is6 is the easiest i assume?

[coarse notch]

quilon is the amiya gatekeeper, hes a harder fight but if you're forced to leak him you're probably screwed for amiya anyways

[formal shadow]

Idk I still haven't played is6

[burnt tree]

also who even do 245 😔

[undone portal]

Do the monthly cards automatically charge every month?

[coarse notch]

no

[ancient lotus]

no

[modern pivot]

No, you have to renew them

[ancient lotus]

no scummy business practices on our turf (surely)

[undone portal]

not a subscription, you go in and buy it again every month

[rich crescent]

Alright that’s great

[modern pivot]

You can stack them up too

[ancient lotus]

you will receive a mail notification when its about to expire

[undone portal]

youre logging in every day to actually get the monthly card rewards so you should know when it expires anyway

how good is Silverash alter's S3 dp generation in comparison with flags and agents?

iirc shileds had a whole segment on it in the other place, just search up sa2
0.62 sp/s for first activation i think

its 0.687

[spare pelican]

guys mylnar or save to buy the 40 gold cert pulls

i have 130 pulls rn for haruka and hoshi alter

[modern pivot]

I just used a mylnar support, that guy is strong as fuck

[spare pelican]

i want both

and i have leizi

[frank crypt]

jaye s1 or 2

[ancient current]

s2

you only use s1 for silence gimmick

[coarse notch]

what do you mean by the 40 gold cert pulls

[spare pelican]

the

[ancient current]

they probably meant the entire batch of 38 pulls, but rounded it up

[rich crescent]

Is it worth it to keep Jaye at e0? I’ve heard it’s recommended but idk

[frank crypt]

the 38 pulls in the cert shop and no get mlynar

[ancient current]

you aren't really using him anyway lol so sure

[spare pelican]

yeah

[frank crypt]

why?

[coarse notch]

ah, id probably buy mlynar tbh

[orchid summit]

I don't see the topic about team building on Discord. Iam blind, or should I look elsewhere? Sorry, I like the game, I've been playing for two days and I'm having fun 😀 I think I'll stick with the game for a while.

oh shileds' online

do you have the graph by any chance?

debating whether or not to build his S3 for gen content

[abstract mauve]

i didnt make a graph for it. just made comparisons between him and other dp gen ops
i can work on that if you want

[frank crypt]

you can go to bot spam and /teamstrat or something similar teams dont act coheasivly except in rare cases you stratigise using the unites and what they bring what they bring is under the wmbrella term of their class

if it wont take you too long, thanks.

Oh my gosh, hidden at the very bottom, I found it 😀 sry and thanks

[coarse notch]

jaye is pretty useless outside of base

[orchid summit]

Because I pull 3x6 stars and I'm thinking about fitting people into the team.

[frank crypt]

who

[ancient lotus]

Technically Jaye is a pretty good 4 star

But i dont think anyone should actually prioritize 4 stars

[coarse notch]

interesting team you have here, follow the teambuilding link

[keen anvil]

I would have only Myrtle and Gummy built if I didn't play low rarity 😭

And like 2 others E1lvl60 for IS

[coarse notch]

dont forget about my goats deepcolor, indigo, and ethan

[frank crypt]

my goat ethan
btw is indigo good she is one of the very very last 4 stars i got so didnt test her out but i need more arts dmg for is click cant carry the arts hitcount

ah and quercuz s1 or s2

[coarse notch]

quercus s1

click or indigo can both solo a spine unless you get catastrophes

indigo is good but you dont need to raise her unless its for is5

[frank crypt]

y is 5 particularly

[coarse notch]

very good in sniper/medic squad, kills spines early, has some cc, kills boats with krooster/amiya, stalls quilon in phase 3, summons rosmontis pillars

[frank crypt]

i will keep that in mind

[sonic zinc]

Why is it so hard to get vouchers of the same class? I'm trying to unlock the IS buff where you recruit 5 of the same class.

[ancient current]

rng moment

[formal shadow]

it's called luck

just rng bruh keep playing and youll get it

Do you need to actually get an ending or just get five of the same class and then bail?

[ancient current]

iirc you do need an ending

"complete an adventure"

[modern pivot]

How many summons do I have to do approx. For 70 missing certificate?

[ancient current]

you can consider approx. 1 pull = 0.8 gold cert

[modern pivot]

So let's say around 8 multis

[abstract mauve]

does anyone have the old vanguard dp gen graph?

[ancient current]

ya

is it this one

[abstract mauve]

i wanna compare my dp graph to it just to be sure

[modern pivot]

And how many gold gems are 1 multi?

[ancient current]

around 10
can be more, can be less, depending on what comes out of it and your potentials

[modern pivot]

10 gold coins are 1 multi? That can't be true

I'm talking about orignium

[burnt tree]

i think it would be great if we start using terms from the game to avoid confusion

[boreal steeple]

BRO WHAT

[ancient current]

oh originium

[modern pivot]

[daring shard]

yolo pls

[burnt tree]

based on how the tags system work, getting top op and senior op isn't that rare compare to solo top op

[ancient current]

tags are kinda ass
i wouldn't even weedy/saria gamba tbh, unless u want to

[boreal steeple]

Yea ik it's the first I'm getting both but double what

[burnt tree]

senior tag is actually worse becaue it's effectively a dead tag

[boreal steeple]

I already have saria btw. Maybe ifrit is fine. I don't have good caster

[ancient current]

you likely won't use her but sure ig

[silk escarp]

Is rosmontis good

[ancient current]

in IS she's very good

meh everywhere else

[ancient current]

if you mean , we call those originite, gold coins do not correspond to any ingame linguo to us
1 = 180
600 = 1 pull
do the math

[boreal steeple]

Either ifrit or gambling top op

[ancient current]

1/3 weedy gamba

up to you

[boreal steeple]

Fr

[rich crescent]

How useful is greyy the lightning bearer? Do they have good utility or dps for a 5*?

[ancient current]

he is not a dps

he has zero dmg

he is basically a decel binder with a flinger's range

pretty good in IS, fine everywhere else

[rich crescent]

Yeah, idk what they do so I was asking to see if they have good utility or dps, dont want to waste resources

[ancient current]

if you don't have anything else to build he's a solid raise

[burnt tree]

🥹 truly faithful to his 4* counterpart

[ancient current]

esp if you haven't finished IS yet

[rich crescent]

Good to lnow, thanks

[burnt tree]

what's the main difference between cc & ccb? specifically ccb cuz i've never played ccb before compared to cc

[ancient current]

ccb is basically a new series of cc
remastered, in a way

[severe crypt]

It’s just so that we can differentiate cc1 and ccb1

[vital shoal]

Is he still worth it it? Or save it for someone else?(For my friend I already have him, he does mostly afk, but also would want a dps melter for end stages ) and I was wondering which ops would be suggested Instead

[ancient current]

he is worth it

[formal shadow]

mlynar is good DPS

[severe crypt]

How poor are you in pulls

[vital shoal]

Me almost broke, I think he Is "okay"

He has like 400+ gold certs or something

[quick jolt]

mlynar is worth getting

[shadow bay]

if u are fine with pulls and have certs to spare u can buy miweenar

[severe crypt]

I’d say yeah your friend is better off with mlynar

[shadow bay]

i am the friend 🥹

[boreal steeple]

I got phantom damn it

[ancient current]

he works in IS

[vital shoal]

@limber scarab

[boreal steeple]

Now i got even more year 1 ops in my squad nice

A walking time machine

[burnt tree]

s2m3 lemon is not worth it right...i'm highkey running out of resources

[ancient current]

you can easily skip it

[ancient lotus]

its a good skill but other ops can take care of it generally speaking

[frank kraken]

Scroll of scars is ending 1 in IS6?

[burnt tree]

https://www.krooster.com/u/orac1e
anything in here worth masterying at all or am i finally free from the shackle of meta slave (at least until hoshi banner drop)

[ancient current]

4*knights player but 4* barely built

(other ops are fine)

[severe crypt]

Wow fraud

[burnt tree]

i'll have you know my training room have been working 90% of time for the past 3 months

literally timegated 😭

[formal shadow]

no gravel mastery 🚮

[severe crypt]

No gravel mastery is a sin

[burnt tree]

SOON, i need to finish my ambriel mastery first

oh and also perfumer mastery

[abstract mauve]

this is focusing on sash2 first s3 usage
(img below)

[ancient lotus]

thanks goat

so i guess he's a solid exu s3 target huh

[formal shadow]

[abstract mauve]

btw this assumes max pot elysium and myrtle but pot1 sash2

[burnt tree]

icl i don't understand why sash s2 is a better general content skill

[abstract mauve]

proper framing

[burnt tree]

his s3 dp boost is so goated like, who need silverash swing when you can have a great opener that have dpgen equal to myrtle

[abstract mauve]

s2 has dp reduction that on average cuts even more dp than his s3's first skill activation. it's just that s3 generates dp while s2 cuts it. i think both are pretty good
i feel like the situations where i'd use flagbearers over him are limited

[burnt tree]

i think i'd use him over flagbearer so i can slop even more

sometimes putting down agent is very hard work

[modern pivot]

i pulled this fucker again, do i feed his dupe or is there other use?

[burnt tree]

no other use, if you don't like twink then tough luck

[ancient current]

dupes only have the use of converting into more gold certs after the op's pot is maxed
no other use aside from this

[quick jolt]

how did this happen bro

[modern pivot]

yes idk lol

[quick jolt]

i think u lowk have a gambling addiction though

[modern pivot]

i pulled 8 off banner SSR before pulling a banner one

[burnt tree]

woah woah what is this? #intervention?

[coarse notch]

why is bro pulling rn

[modern pivot]

well i wanted mylnar, but i got him now so its fine

[wispy jolt]

Does the collectible "enemies -90% atk when they attack for the first time" work on Yi's summons?

[ancient current]

that's not an attack so iirc no

[wispy jolt]

What about multi hit attacks like the Sui foot?

[quick jolt]

attacks and skills are different

[wispy jolt]

Uhhh... theres no other multi hit basic attackers in is6 right?

[steel wagon]

should I e1 silence, lappland, kroos (5*) or amiya

[shadow bay]

all except amiya would be nice to e1

[ancient current]

can do kroos, silence and lappy

[steel wagon]

mk

does she get like better later on or something cus like ig rn shes terrible

[young glacier]

Pretty sure it would be something lame like only first hit of multihit get reduced, maybe two if they are close between because some game checks happen like every 3rd/4th frame or so

[shadow bay]

not rly

you would e2 her eventually coz some stages need her e2 to be unlocked, but that can be done like anytime u want... no pressure

[steel wagon]

ohhh i was wondering cus sometimes i see e2 amiya when looking through supports..
thanks though

[shadow bay]

and ig if u want access ||to her other forms, ie guard and medic form(this one most likely)||

[raw forge]

Really good healer tbh

[worthy gyro]

not building amiya is disrespecting your leader

[modern pivot]

How do.i get rid of those energys on the top?

[young glacier]

Kaltsit will unthanos snap to murder us for putting amiya at risk

[young glacier]

That's "Used/Available" (Don't question who the f designed that UI), deal with it

[worthy gyro]

she's my only source of pure damage, telling her to self-destruct is optimal

[modern pivot]

Th 102 and 60?

[young glacier]

102 is drones, you use them to build/upgrade and if those options exausted speed up post/factory crafts

[wispy jolt]

You dont need true dmg if you just play with their mechanics
(Except Theresis in IS and Eblana)

[shadow bay]

*exhausted

[modern pivot]

Well I can't built because I have no materials for it

[worthy gyro]

for now just focus on expanding your landship when you can
there's a resource stage that gives building materials (or at least something that can be made into building materials)

[split sphinx]

Farm farm farm

[shadow bay]

u farm sk stages then

earlier base done means earlier lmd and exp income

[worthy gyro]

i don't think there's a better source of building materials than the designated building material stages

i guess you can get some via the credit store, but that's really quite slow
and it's best to get your base online ASAP

[modern pivot]

Okay I found out what the 102 was for, now what's the 60 agai

[young glacier]

60 energy used out of 60 you have. Because they designed UI that way. You literally not getting rid of that number because it going down means you doing something wrong

[modern pivot]

[shadow bay]

but what if 351 🤫

||surely it exist||

[split sphinx]

Make sure not to upgrade office btw

[modern pivot]

Thought? I removed the mage girl you guys said yesterday

[shadow bay]

ig that would be fine for the meantime

typhon would be fine also at e1

and i think if u want bait gravel would be better, unless that yato have other purpose

[ancient current]

should i first s2 or s3 m3 jessalt

[cobalt crater]

guys should i get cliffheart, specter, or lappland

[ancient current]

lappy

remember pins have that info

[cobalt crater]

oh ok

[rich crescent]

How vital is E2 for mlynar? Managed to pull him

[proven kelp]

Very

[ancient current]

as vital as if you severed both his arms and legs

[rigid parcel]

Similar to thorns,

His main skill is locked bhind E2

[modern pivot]

Is santala good ?

[modern pivot]

I just have him as emergency tank due to low cost

[shadow bay]

*her

and gravel can be also used like that

her shield is quite thicc for a 4 star yeh

[ancient current]

not really

she's a 5* splash caster, this says it all

(she's a splash caster, this says it all)

[cinder hearth]

I'd argue if you're using jessalt chances are you want the s3.

[mild yacht]

Once upon a time, people actually regarded her as decent.

[bright bobcat]

so in regards to challanges like grand bazaar who is a better dp- recovery than vigna in terms of creating dp?

[cinder hearth]

s2 is interesting but you'd essentially be using it as dodge bot.

[ancient current]

i've barely used her so far so idrk what skill she generally uses. i thought it was s2

[cinder hearth]

Unless an enemy has 0 def it's not hitting for shit.

[ancient current]

a pioneer or a flagbearer

[bright bobcat]

like myrtle?

[cinder hearth]

s3 already goes all the way up to ATK +310% vs s2's ATK +75%, and s3 doesn't have great dph.

[ancient current]

yes. she's ideal for annihilation missions

[bright bobcat]

alrighty ty

[cinder hearth]

Like just compare what these two are actually doing for her.

[ancient current]

i'll start with s3 then ty
she will eventually be m9 but masteries are slow except for the m3 voucher that's gonna get used in a min

[cinder hearth]

Also s2 has piss-poor uptime. 15s skill for 30sp.

[shadow bay]

i like her s2 though

[cinder hearth]

Her s2 is fun but it's really not hitting for much.

[orchid summit]

Ten kernel. Photo removed ( becouse i use wrong channel)

[mild yacht]

Cool
A ) Never touch kernel
B) #salt-mines

[cinder hearth]

Wrong chat, yeah.

[mild yacht]

Also C) shit results

[cinder hearth]

He got ansel, acc saved

The better 3* healer has arrived

[mild yacht]

He also got Ambriel. He can now evade taxes for the year.

[balmy panther]

S3 is the usual angle

s2 is for quick rotation sweep
but who needs that when you can just s3

there may be some extremely niche case for the range tho
for the invis reveal

[cinder hearth]

What exactly is the quick part about the quick rotation sweep.

[balmy panther]

30/15 cycle

[cinder hearth]

The s3 sits at 40, they're way too close imo given s3 uptime is way better.

[strong robin]

How does radian s3 coordinate work? Does it like boost the summon atk if chained?

[mild yacht]

If one can’t hit shit but another in its range can, it sends the shot to that one to hit the target.

[orchid summit]

I got x10 ticket for kernel ( so i use ). Thanks for information 😀

[shadow bay]

iirc the one that cant attack should have the drone that can attack in range 🤔

[mild yacht]

In a way, it’s like a more complicated version of Lemuen’s talent.

[somber coral]

was mlynar actually the best dps before wisadel released?

[thorny edge]

its pretty straightforward. the drone shares the range of another drone in its attack range, which chains.

which is nothing like lemuen's talent

[mild yacht]

You mean her talent that lets her extend her reach if an elite is in a Laterano op’s range?

[thorny edge]

she doesnt have to have the laterano operator in her own range and she cant hit the elite until its been marked by the laterano operator

[median fable]

yeah

[somber coral]

so why is he so low in ratings now since wisadel is still aparently the best dps

[mild yacht]

Did I say it was identical? I’m pretty sure I said it was similar, which is totally not the same definition as identical.

[thorny edge]

how is mlynar low in ratings? did u watch the supah video

[median fable]

where is he low on ratings? Because people here keep recommending lol

[thorny edge]

is it similar? it doesnt seem similar at all

[median fable]

only thing we don't recommend is pulling the banner but that's for another reason

[odd sky]

🍿

[somber coral]

in that one stream I saw recently he was 3 tiers below wisadel idk

[mild yacht]

Nope, totally not similar to extending the range of one unit via use of another unit. Nope, not remotely similar.

[median fable]

I'm pretty sure we told you and others to not trust yt or tier lists in general

[thorny edge]

cuz its not a range extension?? lemuen cant hit enemies in the other laterano operator's range. she can only mark

[somber coral]

c'mon who actually uses that one phalanx caster with horns

[mild yacht]

Yes, and that mark totally doesn’t let her just start sniping it.

[coarse notch]

said stream was pretty dogshit

[median fable]

Carnelian? I don't see how it's relevant

[somber coral]

I mean carnelion works like mlynar but she's bad

[mild yacht]

Beeswax is also a phalanx with horns.

[thorny edge]

thats different. this is like saying a butterfly is similar to an elephant because they both breathe oxygen and have the ultimate goal of spreading their genes and birthing the next generation 💀

[median fable]

[odd sky]

what a funny time to be online

[median fable]

what even is this discussion about lol

[crisp dawn]

comparing carne to mly

[thorny edge]

idek anymore :p

[median fable]

lemuen being similar to?

[mild yacht]

Raidian s3

[median fable]

how they should be similar?

[crisp dawn]

range extension ig?

[split sphinx]

[median fable]

I'd say they are both unique enough to not call them similar

[mild yacht]

S3 lets her drones shoot things in another’s range. Leumen’s talent lets her snipe elites that were in a laterano’s range.

[crisp dawn]

[split sphinx]

That might be top 5 things I've seen on #help

[bright bobcat]

how do i unlock another slot for bulletin challange?

[split sphinx]

Reception room

[bright bobcat]

ty

[thorny edge]

you raise reception room for more slots, which is irreversible

[median fable]

I'm not that convinced honestly. I'd compare it more to Sakiko

[bright bobcat]

is that bad?

[split sphinx]

I recommend only upgrade it to lv2 for 252 reasons

[thorny edge]

generally yeah

[odd sky]

what level is your office?

[bright bobcat]

4

[somber coral]

I mean the meta people would say that wasting energy on reception room is bad cuz you can need more energy for the meta base setup

[odd sky]

office level only goes up to 3

[bright bobcat]

oh idc about that i want texas

[median fable]

Texas is meh btw

[split sphinx]

He probably thinking about CC level

[bright bobcat]

thats fine i want to collect people

[mild yacht]

The only difference is Lemuen doesn’t need to be adjacent to the op. At this point, arguing against it sounds more like arguing about how mines work in RA.

[bright bobcat]

lol true

[grizzled gate]

hey i just started this game but am coming to ask a question, how the pity systems work, and on the zuo le banner if that is more of a 50/50 on either 6 star unit or if its able to pick which you want

[odd sky]

6 years too late to collect people ril

[split sphinx]

25/25/50 (offrate)

[manic marsh]

the former

[thorny edge]

and the difference being lemuen cant just attack in exu's range and requires a specific enemy type and for them to be marked which takes 8/6s and she gains a 15% damage boost. ofc. small differences that totally doesnt change their gameplay entirely

[somber coral]

I dont think anyone actually gambles on zuo le for zuo le but good luck?

[manic marsh]

zuo le is good

[somber coral]

is he

[median fable]

Lemuen doesn't treat other laterano' range as extension to her targeting range but uniquely for the talent. It's unique enough that I wouldn't say they are that similar

agree to disagree, I think the semantic discussion went on for too long lol

[manic marsh]

yea he's a good tank

[somber coral]

a tank? aint he a guard

[thorny edge]

😔 what happened to john semantics

[fervent owl]

Should I get ulpipi? He seems weak without his E2 on IS

[median fable]

PM expert now

[proven kelp]

Damn, John Semantics has fallen off

[split sphinx]

Zuo le not good enough to pull esp with hoshi2 in about a week

[somber coral]

his skill 3 is busted in IS

[thorny edge]

idt ulpianus is even good in IS

[somber coral]

with SP on deployment relics you can spam his skill 3 every second

[shadow bay]

i think wiki would be better to look here

although rough idea

1. encounter that will give u relic that give +3dp(?) cost to ur units
2. get "stand in actor" relic in f3 boss
3. encounter fishing in f4-5, get the relic that looks like torch

and ur set to ed3 after clring ed1/2 boss

[fervent owl]

But It's either I die before getting his e2 or not get any relics at all

[median fable]

Milen kinda right with this one

[manic marsh]

too much acronyms bro

[somber coral]

of course im right I've done it before

[split sphinx]

That's why he told you to go to wiki

[thorny edge]

wasnt this an is5 thing that people stopped using cuz theres better drafts

[proven kelp]

Check Roadless Camelot on the pins for Ending guide for IS2
Theres visual guide so its easier to understand

[shadow bay]

yeh sry i only know the images of encounters, not the relics or name of encounters themselves

so yeh thats why wiki is the best to go

[mild yacht]

I thought ed2 was a letter and a pair of scissors.

[median fable]

draft others ops first, you should draft first Leizi2 for example

[somber coral]

I mean it's still viable anyways?

[split sphinx]

He's asking for ed3

[shadow bay]

is2 ed3

[median fable]

Ulpi kinda suck early on in IS

[thorny edge]

viable doesnt mean good tho

[shadow bay]

what do u mean i love his s2 that take 300 business days to activate

[thorny edge]

but but the talisman are basically buffs for him

[median fable]

either play gvg and open with him at e2 (not worth) or draft him later on if ticket/hope make it feasible

[mild yacht]

But he usually delivers right on time with the end of the stage.

[cinder hearth]

Faster than Yostar QC.

[split sphinx]

What gvg mean

[shadow bay]

guard vanguard

[median fable]

guard vanguard team

[thorny edge]

gvg and borrow so u save the e2 for the f2 pathfinder trust

[split sphinx]

Oh

[manic marsh]

is leizi good for is2

[split sphinx]

Yes

[mild yacht]

Leizi1 or Leizi2

[manic marsh]

leizi2

[somber coral]

im pretty sure leizi will be always better than mlynar in IS cuz of having good skill 1 and skill 2 anyways?

[split sphinx]

That's not how it works

[somber coral]

for early I mean

[thorny edge]

well yeah leizi s2 is available at e1 and she's kinda just better. she has great tiles in is6 stages
with some exceptions..

this screenshot belongs to a slopper

[spare jetty]

true

[thorny edge]

the only one this specimen plays is IS5lop

[somber coral]

why not?

[grizzled gate]

does pity carry over?

[manic marsh]

The stages

[thorny edge]

for standard headhunting banners ya

[spare jetty]

limited banners no

[grizzled gate]

ahh gotcha

[shadow bay]

i think the pins have guidelines for what pity carry over and what banner can share pity

[thorny edge]

they're great

[manic marsh]

Who even are you

[burnt tree]

what stream

[manic marsh]

Nobody likes those stages

[odd sky]

is5 has more cancer stages

[somber coral]

by the way mlynar is tuff

[mild yacht]

IS5 also has more cheese.

[odd sky]

that you changed to wish node

[shadow bay]

~~its kukki ~~

[manic marsh]

IS5 lets you refresh nodes

[spare jetty]

the very easy to get brainrotted

[violet hare]

Wait so is it still worth it to pull on limiteds if you don't have 300 pulls?

[odd sky]

is6 too smh

[manic marsh]

I just check what fight it is and i decide if i want to do that

[spare jetty]

never spark if ur a f2p

[manic marsh]

Is5 uses plans but Is6 uses coupons

[odd sky]

lmao

[spare jetty]

is6 its completely free

[mild yacht]

IS6 wants the special coin.

[split sphinx]

Yes, having to go 300 is very unlikely

[shadow bay]

yeh... dw ur more likely to get the rate ups before hitting 300

but ofc it still depends if the rate ups are actually good, fortunately the upcoming limited banner were good to pull in

[manic marsh]

yea but in Is5 these plans do come cheap

[violet hare]

It's more of a matter if I get the correct rate up, really

[odd sky]

smh bro never played is6 why bother talking

[grizzled gate]

whats maximum pity on limted banners

[manic marsh]

Fair

[violet hare]

I really want haruka since I don't have any good healers on my account, hoshi alter doesn't really interest me really

[thorny edge]

i could tell they're slopper

[thorny edge]

you'll get her, believe in urself

[violet hare]

Thx bro, may the gacha gods also bless your pulls

[manic marsh]

don't call me a slopper I just like an IS that you don't

[shadow bay]

inb4 hoshi is the most sought coz well dps

and ull survive in general with sussuro and ptilo or something, rly

[grizzled gate]

wait guysss someone plsss, whats max pity

[manic marsh]

none

[mild yacht]

300, then you buy the op.

[grizzled gate]

oh! what!

[violet hare]

I'm pretty well off on the DPS department

[manic marsh]

your luck is the limit

[thorny edge]

an IS that's slop :yawn

[mild yacht]

Less luck, more wallet depth.

[waxen wasp]

300 is present rate up limited op or their pot. Then you can buy old or current ops from shop each 300 or 200 depending on whom. You wallet is max pity

[mild yacht]

-# Wait till they hear about collab banners.

[shadow bay]

i mean if he like an IS that rly easy to play with, just need malding for relics and such, he is welcome to do so

next agenda

rly easy when i fail mostly to anti wisadel stage

[thorny edge]

yeah ofc didnt say he couldnt be a slopper

[bright bobcat]

is there an easiest annihilation mission?

[mild yacht]

Clearly we just need to install more spiked chests on other stages to fix your dependency.

[violet hare]

Easiest in what exactly?

Easiest to farm on or easiest to beat?

[violet hare]

Annihilation 1 then

[tiny abyss]

Chernobog permanent one

[somber coral]

chernobog is easiest ngl

[manic marsh]

Do the chernobog one it's easy borrow a wisadel or exualter

[somber coral]

wisadel can take 2 lines at once

[bright bobcat]

alrighty chernbog it is ty everyone

[violet hare]

Just get wisadel support for maximum profit

[manic marsh]

Exualter has the best dps in the game

[bright bobcat]

no idea who that is but ill look into it

[split sphinx]

Wisadel can probably solve world hunger too

[somber coral]

actually theres air enemies do u have anything to deal with em

[mild yacht]

-# Solve it by killing the rest of the world.

[bright bobcat]

yes platinum lemuen lappland

[manic marsh]

exualter

[thorny edge]

raidian s2 perfectly deals with spike chests. mama is as mama does

[bright bobcat]

dont have

[manic marsh]

borrow a support

[bright bobcat]

does that count for rewards?

[manic marsh]

do you want to be able to use auto deploy or no

[bright bobcat]

preferrably yes but im more worried about doing the bulletin challange rn

[manic marsh]

They'll always come back again

[slim tusk]

cherno is piss easy,it's for e0 low e1 stage
you already has several e2

[bright bobcat]

im at 300 out of 400 rn i think ill be fine lol

[manic marsh]

The final boss is just crownslayer

[bright bobcat]

this game has given me ptsd with some of the stuff ive tried to do

[burnt tree]

does is5 portal consume summon?

[split sphinx]

"boss"

Indeed

[shadow bay]

dont think so

[burnt tree]

wow the deep exploration's gonna be annoying

[turbid ocean]

One of the fastest deep explorations

Possible to complete by F3

[slim tusk]

it's pretty simple,give it fodder or summon it on last battle stage of the floor

[bright bobcat]

that was very easy

[burnt tree]

i can't do it in 3 battles 😔 😔

[bright bobcat]

i think the hardest one for me is gonna be 4k ambience in dormitory

[burnt tree]

wait can the portal be blocked?

[shadow bay]

thing should be blockable, dont recall it hovering anyway despite its sprite

[coarse notch]

its a ground enemy yea

[bright bobcat]

i have to have a lvl 4 dorm for this?

[steel wagon]

do originium slugs explosion hit the enemies too?

[formal shadow]

no

[shadow bay]

only to ur units

[steel wagon]

thanks lol

[burnt root]

btw there are multiple of those missions, up to requiring 18000 ambience total in your dorms. just so you know. you can build them up for the missions and then downgrade them

[bright bobcat]

oh huge okey good cause i really didnt wanna upgrade this lol

[shadow bay]

all of that for some furniture parts

[formal shadow]

me when I cripple my base for furniture parts

and a 5* that I never use

[burnt root]

personally I like to complete missions, and it's very temporary

[shadow bay]

non texas enjoyer u deserve death

[modern pivot]

I can't craft, it says I lack LMD but I have enough

[formal shadow]

I don't think you do

[formal shadow]

give me a sec it's a visual thing

[shadow bay]

does arene cut lmd cost when crafting??? iirc he only boost product depend on low morale in dorm

[formal shadow]

only blemi I think does that

[shadow bay]

yeh im trying to remember if those actually cost 0 lmd to craft

[formal shadow]

100 lmd to craft

[split sphinx]

Locks you at 0 amount to craft cause you can't afford to craft even 1

[shadow bay]

so it display 0 coz he cant afford it???

[formal shadow]

it won't let you increase the amount because they lack the lmd to craft

[shadow bay]

what a shit UI

should have still display lmd cost but in red... or something

[formal shadow]

at least you don't have to pay LMD to recruit ops anymore

[burnt root]

48 lmd

[steady tusk]

I can't read, are we getting the rerun on reset?
usually it is 10am but this is 4am for some reason

[split sphinx]

Game had years of not having claim all button 🔥 40M revenue game btw

[shadow bay]

later reset

mr socks have the timer in pins

[formal shadow]

rip the enjoyment of having to go into each room and trust tap all ops individually

[shadow bay]

unless mr socks mistyped the timer... cant check the announcement atm

[steady tusk]

but noone scrolls that far down the pins list

[formal shadow]

yes it's on daily reset

[fathom nest]

#game-news has it on reset so that's the time I placed

[fathom nest]

Fixed

[steady tusk]

Thanks for obliging my lazy nature.

[surreal needle]

Does Swire Alters Coins count as "ammo" at all?

[manic marsh]

Debatable

[pine plover]

it is coded completely different

[surreal needle]

Aight. Just making sure for ammo knights.

[pine plover]

kinda like 2ndary SP system

[elfin loom]

Is there confirmed date on hoshialt/haruka?

[pine plover]

if you know hakumen from blazblue, it's like that

[shadow bay]

just the livestream atm

[elfin loom]

Ty

[formal shadow]

just like how hunter sniper ammo isn't ammo

[polar kestrel]

Guys is there any order for doing side story or can I just pick one that gives a operator

[mild yacht]

Yes and yes.

[polar kestrel]

Any suggestion

[mild yacht]

Not every event is its own isolated story, and you can get operators from it if it has record restoration.

[formal shadow]

and some of the isolated story events have their own timeline

[hollow sparrow]

time to do OF

[formal shadow]

for recommended, dossoles holiday and invitation to wine give good welfare ops

[solid panther]

how important is mlynar module?

[formal shadow]

it's solid damage improvement. I forget the exact percent

[polar kestrel]

Okay

[split sphinx]

Word on the streets say 30%
Makes him very competitive with 2 years of powercreep

[maiden plover]

Do i use qiubai s3 or s1 if i were to only use her in IS?

[solid panther]

im poor i dont have lmd or mats for that many modules lmao

[split sphinx]

You'll be okay. Game is easy

[frail thunder]

If you wanna see its actual power find a comparison on YouTube

[coarse notch]

s1 but it works at sl7

[formal shadow]

yeah pretty sure quibai's only use in IS these days is permabind in is5

and technically tragodia can do that

[maiden plover]

Isn't she also drafted in IS6 because she's also yan or is it because her kit isn't that good in IS6

[coarse notch]

not worth it

[solid panther]

ty anyways

[formal shadow]

I haven't played is6 so I'm 0 on is6 knowledge

[coarse notch]

there are a lot of 0 hope yan guards and she doesnt solve anything to my knowledge

[formal shadow]

there's a lot of yan options indeed

time to build my LXH :ya:

[mild yacht]

Somewhere, they were saying Chen2 didn’t count.

[solid panther]

i played a bit of is6 to my knowledge shes fine there prob the best lord cuz there are some maps with great spots for her and some good relics that interact with her bind

[coarse notch]

fyi chen and blaze alt dont count

[mild yacht]

-# But does Hoshi2 count!?

[odd sky]

hidden faction shenanigans

[formal shadow]

yeah hoshialt is still LGD (which is part of Yan)

[shadow bay]

this is what ive extracted in tomimi

[coarse notch]

yes, euthy posted that in is central a while back, its wrong

[shadow bay]

yeh i should've cropped some parts

[mild yacht]

Blaze didn’t exactly unYan herself, though.

[coarse notch]

hg is just a blaze/chen alter hater i guess idk

[solid panther]

i did one or two runs with her i think leizi is slightly better if you have her but im not used to playing with liberators yet so i dont know how good leizi actually is there, qiubai is very comfortable to do tho cuz lords are easy

[burnt tree]

wait wdym ch'en doesn't count

[odd sky]

blaze2 and chen2 have Yan as hidden faction
while exu2 have Yan as Sub-faction

[coarse notch]

leizialt is miles better than qb they arent in the same universe

[coarse notch]

chenalt is RI, blazealt is RI EO

[formal shadow]

I guess IS6 doesn't care about subfactions

[solid panther]

my bad it hasnt even been a month since i started running liberators

[mild yacht]

HG spaghetti coding shenanigans.

[odd sky]

that's not the reason tho
it's hidden factions not counted yet

[vale finch]

Which skill is mainly used by mumu?

[coarse notch]

im assuming they didnt know that chenalt changed from LGD to RI
but yea hidden factions

[solid panther]

qiubai is perfectly fine in is6 in my opinion tho esp cuz arts is not that great

[coarse notch]

s3

[odd sky]

What's weird is that Exu2 event occurs in laterano
while blaze2 event occurs in yan

[formal shadow]

what about it?

[coarse notch]

exu2 is hanging on by a thread cuz penguin logistics i guess
texas being yan feels really weird too

[odd sky]

exu2 count while blaze2 doesn't

[mild yacht]

Maybe they’re just prejudice to ops who live outside their home.

[formal shadow]

oh yeah exualt is still PL and PL still counts as yan

[odd sky]

is this fixed on CN or what

[burnt tree]

prts said chenalt is RI yan

[formal shadow]

Penguin Logistics, Lee's Detective Agency, Lungmen are all factions that count as yan

[mild yacht]

Fixed on CN is only hoping. What matters is whether yostar is able to implement the fix.

[formal shadow]

yeah the point is IS6 doesn't look at subfactions when checking if an op is Yan

[odd sky]

it does, what it doesn't look at is hidden faction

[mild yacht]

-# And then we end up with Gaviel the Leithianian caster.

[formal shadow]

that's what I mean by subfaction

[odd sky]

in game files they're different thing

[coarse notch]

隐藏势力

[burnt tree]

wait is doesn't look at subfaction? that's stupid

[coarse notch]

specifically 隐藏

[formal shadow]

oh yeah sub faction would be different. It doesn't look at hidden factions

[burnt tree]

still so stupid dies

[odd sky]

[mild yacht]

Implementing a new hidden system just to overlook it where it matters.

[odd sky]

ikr

[formal shadow]

what's stupid is what the fuck is going on here

[burnt tree]

i mean exu fit geeks imo

[odd sky]

idk should be sniper

[mild yacht]

Aak is what’s happening there.

[formal shadow]

no I mean how it looks visually on aceship

[burnt tree]

the shield is big, and the redeploy is solid

[formal shadow]

the offcenter is driving me mad

[odd sky]

oh yea

[mild yacht]

Looks symmetrical if you divide it in half and rotate one half 180°.

[formal shadow]

but it's clipping into the text :realmad:

[odd sky]

holy shit i didn't see that the black blends in

my brightness also is very low

[burnt tree]

both side clip though so it's symmetrical

[mild yacht]

Specialists are superior to css boxes.

[shadow bay]

its not annoying when u cant see it

[marble viper]

is pram alter revive once per deployment or once per mission?

[odd sky]

anyways the important is they fix green cert nodule

[formal shadow]

the problem is I can see it

[rustic fiber]

I read online that new players shouldn't spend too much resources on standard banners, and they should instead spend it on limited banners (when they appear). Can someone tell me if that's correct, and when the next limited banner is scheduled (if that info is available)

[burnt tree]

send the source

[formal shadow]

one per deployment I believe?

at least all the other talents like that are once per deployment

[rustic fiber]

I forgot where it was, it was a few days ago

[shadow bay]

u should indeed avoid standard banner

the more correct phrase is u should pull on banner thats actually worth to pull in

there are instances of limited banner that honestly fine to skip on

[formal shadow]

I mean not quite but it's true 99% of time that standard banner is ass to roll on

[split sphinx]

Standard rotating banners suck cause you get split rateup (rarely ever get 2 prio units in there, one always kinda eh)

[burnt tree]

see idk if standard banner here mean like standard or 'debut banner for standard operator'

[slate ridge]

should i raise Click / Pudding for IS caster vouchers

https://www.krooster.com/u/quiet-cream-kroos-76xs

[proven kelp]

Not quite
That depends on what they mean by "Standard banner"

The term Standard banner can mean different things to different groups or people

They can either mean All Non-Limited banners, so Rotating, Debut, Orie, JO etc
or Rotating Banner, a specific Banner that's always active and most people consider as The "Standard Banner"

If the site meant by Standard is the latter, then its correct
If its the former, then its dead wrong

[shadow bay]

hmmm when i say standard banner, i usually connote it to THE standard banner, like the rotating ones

others were refered specifically, like solo rate up

[naive moat]

Generally, I wouldn't ever pull on any of the kernel headhunting banners (blue cert). If you want an operator from there, just wait until the custom banner where you can buy any operator from there for 180 yellow certs (distinctions)
Right now, its a really bad time to pull on standards because the next rounds of limited operators are pretty strong, and also chances for getting a limited operator are higher than getting a rate-up standard operator
By standard banners I'm referring to the rotating banners that have units that already had their debut banners

[formal shadow]

I wouldn't really bother with pudding imo but click e1 max could be a thing

click and indigo were the only 4* casters I bothered trying in IS

[coarse notch]

how about click and indigo

yea just snail me already broom

[rustic fiber]

From what I understood, the red banner, where currently there is Mylnar and Zuo Le, is the "standard banner", right?

[mild yacht]

True, all those free blue tickets they give us should be kept as momentos of all the times HG tried to bribe us to accept its existence.

[naive moat]

Yes.

[slate ridge]

guess Click Indigo it is

[proven kelp]

That banner is the "Rotating Banner"

[rustic fiber]

So when a limited banner appears, will there be 3 banners at the same time? Kernel, Standard, and Limited? Or will the limited banner take the place of the standard banner?

[quick jolt]

its the standard rotating banner, but there are multiple banner types that fall under the term "standard banner". tldr dont pull it unless you just started and want to reroll for mlynar

[formal shadow]

former

[quick jolt]

the former, limited is its own thing

[naive moat]

Both are actually very good units, its just that there's an important limited banner coming in like less than 2 weeks

[proven kelp]

Kernel and Rotating are always active

If an event is active, there will be a Event banner that are separate from the 2

[marble viper]

what alter is in the hoshi alt shop

[mild yacht]

Other than Hoshi?

[proven kelp]

Check pins for Limited list

[rustic fiber]

and the event banners usually have the best units?

[coarse notch]

usually but just follow the pull priority guide in pins

[proven kelp]

Kinda

Event Banners are what you tend to pull on
but not every Event Banners are good

[mild yacht]

The best options, doesn’t mean the unit on the banner is one of the best.

[tardy urchin]

I have 114 gold certs would it be possible to get enough for mlynar before he gets axed?

[shadow bay]

dont think so unless u have massive recruitment stock

[naive moat]

probably not, how many recruitment vouchers do you have saved up

[rustic fiber]

Ohh very useful links there. Thanks for the heads up

[naive moat]

that and maybe expedited plans

[shadow bay]

mah brain cant imagine miweenar banner would make it to ato

[burnt tree]

people do be acting like 100+ gold cert means automatically close to 180

[mild yacht]

If they serial-opened every event and didn’t do enough to get the ops, maybe.

[random shard]

But who are the drawings of

[radiant mantle]

Better luck next time

[marble viper]

either im looking at a diff link but at what im seeing there are names on top

[random shard]

I looked at the thing that said limited pool

It's adorable but who are they

[mild yacht]

-# ‘Hashi’

[frail thunder]

Pepe ejya alter and gavial alter

Honestly, Neb’s Gaviel looks like Astgenne now.

[naive moat]

anything can happen, gavialt jumpscared me on pepe banner

[split sphinx]

it's like 5% chance on a 6star. I can cope it

[mild yacht]

You’d be surprised how many people still get the third oldest on the banner.

[formal shadow]

I did it. Only took me 300 pulls :clueless:

[mild yacht]

I got two Dusks off Chong’s and then a Ling off Shu’s.

#arknights

[slow dust]

so, after clearing EP3-8, its unlocked next arc up to EP15, is it recommended to do later EP first or just do in order?

[formal shadow]

wanna do most of ch9 and a bit of ch15 for the material synthesis unlock then you can do in order

[split sphinx]

Just do the stages you need to unlock material/crafting

[slow dust]

ok, so its just give access to new material very early?

[proven kelp]

Crafting the materials, you can still get them if events or one time rewards give it

[modern pivot]

This is hard

[slow dust]

ok, thanks

[twilit owl]

~~can watch arflanyr guides on youtube or something ~~

That’s Lappland’s playground.

If you need stage help then head to #strategy as others have said. Make sure you read the channels rules to avoid harsher punishment next time as this does violate #1 and #4 for blogging and unnecessary media

With that in mind if I auto this will I be able to fill up my weekly allowance? Or does it have to be several different missions

you can fill weekly allowance yes
