My ID is 13595841335 and I can only input 13595841

[shadow bay]

hmmm i would only note ops u will most likely to use here.. for specific ones u still use u can ask what mod if u want

u can give these modules
haruka mod1
kal IS mod3 (general she want panacea mod3 module... if u can spare ig better)

would do those first and then... uhhh... idk ceobe e2 next?

For this upcoming CC, I have a little dilemma. I do not have anyone from Jan 2024 to Dec 2025 as I wasn't playing during those times. What is the general idea of getting 620 points?

[shadow bay]

waiting for a low end guide

[lyric lagoon]

banana solo trust

[pliant summit]

Yeah… that’s a lot of good ops missed

[craggy thunder]

thank u my user is smart-plum-shu-16hc

[median fable]

620 is doable if not easily close to it

[shadow bay]

surely 620 can be cleared with a one broken 6 star and bunch of bodies

[small thunder]

Like who? My only "broken" ops are from before Jan 2024.

[rustic pecan]

i got proviso by pulling limited banner, should i use 5 star selector on shamare? Yes i checked pins but i want to be sure

thanks for the help!

[shadow bay]

wisadel exu alter tragodia...

i think ull familiar with the concept of low end guides yeh

[solemn carbon]

what's the borrow situation like in CC?

[shadow bay]

as much as i can remember, most of cc r18 low end guides were still doable with a 6 star borrow and bunch of 3-4 stars

[small thunder]

I tried searching on YouTube but I couldn't find any, unless I was searching wrong lol. I can borrow a Trag. I still have a bunch of 6 stars with masteries and some modules too.

[misty ridge]

is it not possible to e2 hoshiguma the breacher as a new player it says clear 15-9

[slim tusk]

search billi

yt will only have guide when the stage is out

[shadow bay]

u w8 for a while, ccb4 isnt in global yet

if u wanna see clrs though, u wanna visit cn websites like bili

[small thunder]

Yeah that is what I meant. I'll try BB

[median fable]

https://www.vxbilibili.com/video/BV1fZeTzxE7Z/
this one is kinda brainless

[small thunder]

Thanks!

[tiny abyss]

Extra stats from IS mods only apply in IS right

[slate ridge]

base no

[shadow bay]

ahh coz u lack mats that have nodule in it (coz that can be unlocked at 15-9)

u can still raise hoshi as long as u get the exact mats outside crafting....

if u need to craft hough, u rly wanna go 15-9 first, as a note... u can readily access ch15

[tiny abyss]

Oh alr

[median fable]

the stats from IS mods are applied even outside last time I checked

[subtle ether]

does radian only start becoming useful at e2 in is6 or is she already good at e1 there

Are there any consequences for leaking in stationary security service?

What skill to m3 for Yu?

[proud violet]

which thorns modle better

[formal shadow]

s2

[rocky cloak]

How about Hoshi alter?

[formal shadow]

s3

[rocky cloak]

Thanks!

[abstract mauve]

they are both about equal. i have been told the nervous impairment one is more backloaded damage than the arts damage one tho but it applies paralysis

[misty ridge]

oh thank you

[formal shadow]

pretty sure delta has like a 1-2% dps advantage and it applies paralysis too

[abstract mauve]

i've been having a relatively good time with delta mod but i havent tried the other one much to compare. numbers wise ye

[marble viper]

hoshi2 mod is coming out with sash2 right? how good is it

[ionic fractal]

Is hoshi2 apart of “top 10 best ops”

[abstract mauve]

it's quite decent

[formal shadow]

probably

[abstract mauve]

is yu in your top 10?

[sharp lagoon]

Is there an easy way to do the business event, this feels tedious af

[marble viper]

does it warrant a mod3? or is it just dmg

[slim tusk]

pretty good

[abstract mauve]

mod 2 and mod3 lower her tenacity threshhold but overall it doesnt change much. the main things are the trait change and the base stats. i think overall it's like a ~25% damage increase

talent change does also give a bit more akt% but s3 already has a bunch

[marble viper]

i see, thanks.

[solemn carbon]

if I'm already in prosperous epoch, entering it again through encounter is just going to refresh it right? wondering if it would extend
edit2: tested it, it refreshes (doesn't extend)

[coral flax]

Yo should I choose eyja or surtr? This is my units

[rustic pecan]

whats the hype with proviso and shamare. Why are they the go to select? cause im not sure what to do with them

[slim tusk]

proviso broken in base

[rustic pecan]

nice. but what about shamare?

[slim tusk]

good in base,pretty good debuffer if you use her

[solemn carbon]

shamare's the same, they both improve TP income a lot when they're e2

[rustic pecan]

so they are base slaves?

[idle finch]

I have 12 aketons and 18 nodules, should I keep farming nodules or is there a certain amount of aketons I should farm to?

[solemn carbon]

would probably keep doing nodules because they're more annoying/expensive to farm outside of event
they're both baseslaves but shamare also sees niche use as atk/def debuffer

[idle finch]

Bet

[elfin ermine]

How do reruns work? I want Mostima but I'm not sure when she'll be back. Is it worth trying on the standard banner? Relatively new player

[true pagoda]

Hey guys if i leak planes here can i still get the full rewards?

[stable brook]

btw

how hoshi alt s1?
worth raising?

[unkempt pollen]

nop just stick with s3 > s2

[elfin ermine]

Bump

[formal shadow]

your choice
also level the 6* to module level (60) and get most of them their modules

[unkempt pollen]

answer is in the pins

[bright blade]

Is haruka much good in high end content or is, or is she mostly a general stage afk healer

[unkempt pollen]

mostima is long gone and is trapped in kernel hell, either wait until a kernel banner comes along where she's featured and pull on it (not recommended at all) or win the 50/50 that she's purchaseable in the shop for 180 gold certs or get lucky and get her from top op tag recruit

[shadow bay]

standard banners outside vignette (short events), chapter update and limited would get rerun a year after their debut

and thats it... mostima been in ages, and her being locked in kernel banner mean u can only cope her being on rate, and use certs to get her

mostima specifically though can be ontained thru recruitment, but wouldn't count on it

[pulsar loom]

I rerolled and acciunt with higorashima. Do i reroll for more than that? Or is that ok?

[unkempt pollen]

works just fine in harder content, idk about the extreme case stuff but i'd imagine 60% sanctuary does wonders

[elfin ermine]

Certificates? I don't see her in the shop

[formal shadow]

that's fine

[shadow bay]

yeh u need to wait until she is certable... as for when... dunno

[formal shadow]

they rotate around

[pulsar loom]

Do i have to try and get another character in another banner. Or do i start saving

[hushed niche]

ive done 130 pulls, got zero left, Is it worth to keep going for hoshialter?

[unkempt pollen]

if you dont care about sakiko, sure

[formal shadow]

do a couple of pulls on the starter banner to get the guaranteed 6* then save i'd say

[elfin ermine]

I was going to convert my 51 gold certificates for Kernel wishes, but should I instead just save it and pray that Mostima comes along soon?

[vital kelp]

Do not convert 51 gold certificate for kernel wishes

[unkempt pollen]

never buy kernel pulls or pull on kernel unless you have a very specific reason to

[abstract mauve]

hiiii. if im 11 pulls off of chalter and i have 40 pity, do i go for chen and the next 6* :shusmug:?

[elfin ermine]

One more thing, can you choose which rate up 6 star you get? I was trying for the Oni but I got the idol instead

[vital kelp]

No

[elfin ermine]

Is there a guarantee system?

[unkempt pollen]

arknights BOGO how broken
i mean if you have like 70 pulls i'd do it

[vital kelp]

No

[elfin ermine]

Mmm, what's the highest pity?

[abstract mauve]

i have exactly 130 orundum and 6

[vital kelp]

300

[copper yacht]

How focused should I be on getting e2 for my characters as a new player if I already used my e2 ticket?

[nimble zenith]

you need 300 to guarantee both

[vital kelp]

Broke ass

[unkempt pollen]

arknights has no coin flip guarantee (and neither does endfield if you're curious)
this negative comes at the positive that you can "beat arknights" with whatever you get

[elfin ermine]

THAT'S INSANE

[unkempt pollen]

not really
most people probably have 200+ pulls saved

[elfin ermine]

I just started like, last week 💔

[vital kelp]

I’d say the odds are better than genshin

[unkempt pollen]

might be time to use l*****r

[hushed niche]

any idea how many pulls you can get monthly?

[abstract mauve]

it's also exceedingly unlucky but it happens to people so you gotta be ready for the pain sometimes

[formal shadow]

not a huge priority until ~ch5-6+
ideally you want your team to be equal in level

[vital kelp]

40-50

[unkempt pollen]

yeah, ofc it takes time, but arknights doesn't hound for your pulls 24/7 so its really easy to save, i've only been playing for just over a year

[lyric lagoon]

the big thing about ak isn’t gacha, but resource management

[copper yacht]

Ok tysm

[elfin ermine]

Naofumi mentioned
Cough anyway, so what else should I know?

[vital kelp]

Reroll now is a good idea

[elfin ermine]

Rerolling for who exactly? For the Oni?

[vital kelp]

Yes

[tiny abyss]

You can get one 6* pot after clearing CCB max risk right

[violet ledge]

does arknights have other languages for display?

[vital kelp]

Max risk offers no rewards

[tiny abyss]

Wait I mean 620 or smth

[quick jolt]

its just up to 620 but yes

[vital kelp]

Not on English server u need to change client

[elfin ermine]

Hmm but I have characters I like such as Kichisei, Whisperain, Feater, and Silence on this account

And also, I got Exusiai whom I started the game for

[tiny abyss]

Ya I meant 620

[vital kelp]

None of them are worth unless the exusiai is exusiai the new covenant

[elfin ermine]

The what

[pulsar loom]

I got silver ash and im still garunteed another one i think? Do i do the other 10 pull and is silver ash useful?

[quick jolt]

they just started, so no

[vital kelp]

Exualter who is gone now, so yeah prob reroll for oni and if u really want oni + exu

[elfin ermine]

I'm certain that mine is just regular 'ol Exusiai

[vital kelp]

No there’s only one 6 star guaranteed so ignore

[quick jolt]

unfortunately, exusiai is quite bad compared to other starters, but if you like her a lot it doesnt matter that much. just make sure you follow the "newbie selectors" guide in this channel's pins

[slim tusk]

kichisei,whsiperain sucks
silence can be gotten from selector
if you like exusia that much you can also selector her,she is bad tho

[gentle viper]

just get Thorns and your game gonna set to easy mode

[vital kelp]

Thorns is bad

[frank rune]

till he gets powercrept in a month

[gentle viper]

[somber gate]

If i use support friend when i clear stage i don't get regular drops, is that how it works? cause everytime i clear that stage with supports i always get extra drops or is this just pure rng? (Im talking S9-4)

[vital kelp]

He got power crept 3 years ago

[abstract mauve]

thorns is not carrying your ass in any remotely challenging content

[quick jolt]

its not recommended to use the selector like this, but if you wanted, you'd be able to reroll for hoshiguma now (who is extremely good) and guarantee you still get exusiai on day 5 @elfin ermine

[lyric lagoon]

someone got tainted by youtuber guides

[mild yacht]

It’s total rng. Support just means you can’t auto it.

[elfin ermine]

What are the chances of getting her with rerolls?

[quick jolt]

pretty high

[somber gate]

Yeah im cooked then, thanks man

[quick jolt]

might take an hour or two unless you're extremely unlucky

[elfin ermine]

Will reroll ig, since I can get Exusiai still. Although, how big of a coincidence is it that my favourite characters all suck

[gentle viper]

i really E2 Thorns first btw

[vital kelp]

Exualt is good

[elfin ermine]

I'm still getting them

[tiny abyss]

Exu 2025 edition

[lyric lagoon]

just play nicheknights

[gentle viper]

[vital kelp]

Bro raised thorns over trag

[tiny abyss]

Trag

[elfin ermine]

Whoooo

And will she rerun? I will save after getting Oni if yes

[tiny abyss]

Limiteds dont get rerun but she will be offrate in like 9 months

[lyric lagoon]

no limiteds rerun, though she will appear as an offrate (at a very very low rate)

[quick jolt]

dont worry the game will still be very playable, especially with hoshi as a carry. its only to speed up your early progression. still highly recommend following the part of the infographic that mentions using your 5star e2 voucher on tequila

[gentle viper]

I'm currently waiting for the Thorns lodestar to reroll

[abstract mauve]

wdym reroll?

[lyric lagoon]

bro is putting his acc with trag in the dump for thorns2

[pulsar loom]

Is silver ash useable ?

[pseudo jungle]

don't worry if you think you invested into the "incorrect units," this game can wait for you and your progress

you aren't falling behind or something

[elfin ermine]

Darn. Will she appear in the shop?

One more thing, how much should I progress before rerolling again?

[lyric lagoon]

best of the beginner 6*s

[elfin ermine]

When you say offrate, can it be likened to a standard pool?

[gentle viper]

rerun

[lyric lagoon]

no acc is truly bricked, the only bricked accs are those that are unplayed

[pseudo jungle]

very usable as a comfortable burst dps upon e2, has great talents that'll help you in a lot of stages

[quick jolt]

shes a past limited, so shes really hard to get. she wont be available until ~november, and you either guarantee her by doing 300 pulls, or get really lucky and get her as a random offrate (you're more likely to have to do the 300)

[pseudo jungle]

no acc is truly bricked except for the ones who e2'd frostleaf

[rustic pecan]

Which event stage is the most efficient at getting rumors?

[gentle viper]

the off rate on arknights have a higher chance to some operators. like on the Hoshi banner, the highest rate off are for Eyjafalla medic, gavial Alter, and one i forgot. but the others than that are equal

[lyric lagoon]

doesn’t matter, it’s a 1:1 sanity conversion

[quick jolt]

referred to as sparking and its advised against doing because you need to skip a lot of banners. but once again if you really like her, you can do it

[pseudo jungle]

yeah it doesn't matter
i'd recommend at-6, it's guaranteed t3 rocks

[quick jolt]

you have way more than enough time to anyway

[elfin ermine]

That's at least a lot of time to save wishes

[rustic pecan]

Aight thx then

[pseudo jungle]

and you need a fuck ton of those regardless of what place you're at in the game

[elfin ermine]

What about my reroll question?

[quick jolt]

reroll using only the 7 ish pulls you get from mail. getting anymore is slower overall

[lyric lagoon]

after soonfield becomes nowfield in 20 hours and 26 minutes, pc launcher will be the next memed to death thing

[tame pier]

Who do I build

https://www.krooster.com/u/megasensei

[gentle viper]

T3 rock do what?

[tiny badge]

the mini-event where u talk to the busy/angry/shy/whatever guy is normal to take a lot of time? I did like 10x and its like half the way to complete the battle pass thing

[pseudo jungle]

it's just a material that's really needed for many operators

[pulsar loom]

Who in the free 5 stars do i get guys

[quick jolt]

you have 3 weeks so dont worry about it

[pseudo jungle]

do you mean the silence, projekt red, pramanix one?

i forgot the last one. was it ptilopsis?

[lyric lagoon]

proviso e1 at least

[gentle viper]

it was Ptilopsis

[pulsar loom]

That one. I get ptilo?

[true pagoda]

if i have 180 gold certs, can i just buy sakiko directly like that?

[tiny badge]

I saw this thing I was mostly worried if the pontuations I was getting was too low since its taking a lot of runs and want to get done with this thing and just do the stages mainly

[quick jolt]

she wont be in shop. you can only get her by pulling

[pseudo jungle]

surtr, elysium

[true pagoda]

does the new collab banner come out right after this haruka banner ends?

[pseudo jungle]

pretty much, she's ridiculously good even in the endgame

ptilopsis >>>> silence ≥ projekt red ≥ pramanix

imo

[lyric lagoon]

those rocks are what allowed for ak ops to be reconvened into endfield trust

[gentle viper]

it can be, it can't be

[lyric lagoon]

we can’t speculate

[pulsar loom]

Theres no ptilopsis

[pseudo jungle]

oh liskarm LOL

uhm

[vital kelp]

Is she really ridiculously good

[pulsar loom]

Theres ptilopsis here tho

[quick jolt]

ptilopsis is from the day 7 selector

[mild yacht]

We already know it won’t come out as soon as the current banner ends. That would require running the related event with it, and they won’t run two events that consume sanity at the same time.

[pseudo jungle]

they're all equally... okay?

pramanix has ridiculously good debuffs, but that's pretty much the only thing she has. other debuffers have some sort of other niche & with how modern units are nowadays, debuffs aren't rly needed

projekt red is a fast redeploy, which makes her good by default, but even then she's extremely meh

liskarm's really only used as an SP battery, but there isn't that much use case outside of that

[tiny badge]

yea, just want to get done with it fast to forget it tbh, not a fan of this mini event

[pulsar loom]

So who do i get from these 2 selectors

[quick jolt]

its boring but atleast its easy

[astral bear]

not sure if prams debuffs are 'ridiculously good' they are 'acceptable' most of the time

[gentle viper]

my ops go to Enfield using the mighty coalgutive nodule

[tiny badge]

yea ig

[pulsar loom]

Anyone who can help mi higo and my silver ash

[fiery lynx]

take pram for pre trust farm pramalter. thats the best you can get out of those 3.
you wont use any of them anyway

[pseudo jungle]

in a vacuum her debuffs are incredible at -60% def and -30% res, but like

nowadays operators just
don't need debuffs anymore

[astral bear]

true that

[vital kelp]

What are you on about

[pulsar loom]

And the other selector? I get ptori?

[pseudo jungle]

right, pramalter

yeah, go for pramanix and trust farm for her future alter

[arctic cargo]

Hey guys just pulled SilverAsh from beginner banners in 10 pulls, should i stop pulling on beginner banner now and just save everything?

[gentle viper]

nothing, just being sarcastic for the missing nodule on the shop

[pulsar loom]

Who i get here

[analog birch]

stop on starter if you got 6 star

[gentle viper]

Current Banner Recs: #help message

New Operator Builds / New Module Recs: #help message

6* Selector: Surtr > Saria (unless Shu) > Eyja > Bagpipe

-# Most of these operators are dated, consider picking up a dupe just for gold certs if you aren't a newbie! Newbies should not choose dupes!

Anniversary 5* Selector: Proviso > Shamare

[pseudo jungle]

for other selector, you can get either specter, lappland, nearl, or warfarin

specter's a great aoe guard who can lanehold + self regen

lappland's a lord guard with great utility + some arts damage

nearl is a healing defender, but this is rly only if you don't have saria. even then you can build gummy so i wouldn't fully recommend

warfarin has the best atk buff in the game with her s2 and she heals off of the target's hp, so she's a great medic

[subtle ether]

if i have mon3tr and saria do i still need ptilo as a second healer ont he team

[arctic cargo]

i have haruka, silverash and hoshiguma

[fiery lynx]

ptilo is a decent option for that but does that selector have cantabile?
otherwise I'll pick canta since you already have silence for the heal.

[analog birch]

I did not ask regarding that, I just said stop on beginner banner

[pulsar loom]

Wait ppl r having different opinions im confused

[pseudo jungle]

oh wait canta's in the selector? i thought it was an older one

yeah pick cantabile

[quick jolt]

she is not

[pseudo jungle]

ptilopsis is still a great addition due to her sp talent

she basically makes auto recovery 30% faster for everyone for free

[quick jolt]

its only kernel units

[vital kelp]

For free:

[pseudo jungle]

oh bruh

pick elysium or warfarin

[pulsar loom]

No canta

[arctic cargo]

i gave more context because i was wondering if i should pull anywhere or save everything

[gentle viper]

5 stars ops is the ops that are pretty weak compared to the 6 stars but being overly expensive if to compare to 4 stars ops. so everyone have their own perspective

[subtle ether]

how rare is a top operator tag?

[pulsar loom]

Elysium?

[analog birch]

common sense, why would you pull on a banner which you got both rateup on

[pseudo jungle]

extremely

[pseudo jungle]

incredible dp printer + has good sniper support with lower dp cost and aspd buff when his skill's active

[vital kelp]

2%

[pseudo jungle]

they're more confused about the conflicting recommendations

yume gave recommendations on the free 5 star selector we got at anniversary

i gave recommendations on the free 5 star selector beginners get

[pulsar loom]

I don't see an elysium whar

[jaunty eagle]

hosi red mode won't activate if I don't stop her s3 early?~

[arctic cargo]

bro dont be a dick about it , i was just asking incase there were units or off banner characters i should be interested in

[gentle viper]

yes

[jaunty eagle]

i watch a vid...she dies after red mode~

[fiery lynx]

You might want to ss the whole thing.

[pulsar loom]

Imma js get warfarine there's no elysium

[pseudo jungle]

really depends on your priorities and what operators you currently have

are you waifu > meta or meta > waifu? is there any characters you specifically like?

what operators do you have? do you have any niches that are missing?

[gentle viper]

that's why just let her skill on without stop it yourself

[fiery lynx]

Is that everything?

[pseudo jungle]

scroll all the way to the bottom, still nothing?

[gusty citrus]

anyone know the next best value for money in straight up pulls after the 30 and 50 dollar packs? is it monthly headhunting?

[severe crypt]

Wouldn’t this mean they already have Ely?

[lyric lagoon]

nothing?… mr… nothing?

[pulsar loom]

Under is the stuff i have already

[pseudo jungle]

oh
pick warfarin lol

[pulsar loom]

Okki

[gentle viper]

i think Ptilopsis better... or did he already have it?

[pseudo jungle]

beginners get ptilopsis for free after 7 days

[fiery lynx]

He dont have ptilo

[analog birch]

he doesnt hav ptilo, top right

[pseudo jungle]

if my memory serves me correct

[pulsar loom]

Who do i e2

[chrome epoch]

can i ask what proviso does?

[jaunty eagle]

ok...also apple pie s3~

[formal shadow]

+2 gold/order for all orders with <4 base gold (+1 at e0)

[pseudo jungle]

play the game first, test the units, see which units you need in your squad

[neat acorn]

Any other sniper I can get from side story besides kroos

[gentle viper]

if you have Mrs Apple pie, you good to go on spamming red oni

[analog birch]

jieyun and someone else

[chrome epoch]

oh so she's a trading post pick? got it

[arctic cargo]

thanks for the reply, i generally like to pick meta to keep account strong. I currently have SilverAsh, Hoshiguma and Haruka for 6stars . I was planning on grabbing Surtr from the selector as well. Im not sure of what niches are missing today is my first day playing this game. If there are some really good meta characters coming soon im down to save if you recommend.

[formal shadow]

you can get jieyun (bad) and insider (okay)

[pulsar loom]

Okk

[severe crypt]

The answer is none of these btw

[chrome epoch]

i am in need of lmd... to e2 my haruka....

[gentle viper]

you should get Eyja over Surtr, you're missing range unit

[neat acorn]

Is there like any other way sniper outside of side story

[formal shadow]

cc shop give erato (bad)

[jaunty eagle]

will Mrs apple pie s3 make op on field have their s3 full sp?(i do have Mrs apple pie )~

[analog birch]

event shop
IS
RA
Base

And no haruka does not need immediate e2, her best skill is s2

[pseudo jungle]

if you already have hoshiguma alter, there's no need to get surtr. hoshiguma's dps is better than surtr's

eyjafjalla or saria are both excellent picks. one is good sustained aoe arts damage without aoe caster weaknesses, and the other is a really good medic defender you use in many stages

[arctic cargo]

ah ok thanks, i think i just defaulted to pinned message without looking at what account needed

[pseudo jungle]

rly depends on what your squad needs, but eyjafjalla's a perfectly good pick for her s2

[hazy dew]

Who should I upgrade to elite 2 first? Can upgrade 2 characters, 1 for wisadel, what about the other?

[neat acorn]

Crazy but which side story is insider from

[gentle viper]

100% Wisadel

[neat acorn]

Thanks

[analog birch]

oh

[formal shadow]

tragodia & haruka e1 first then trag e2 I think

[pseudo jungle]

they said one for wisadel already

[slim tusk]

raise that tragodia

[arctic cargo]

Ok i think i will grab eyja now, ill get my surtr fix for when endfield comes out haha, thanks. Once i progress i will likely come back to this chat to ask about skill upgrade priorities as from what i understand the resources are somewhat limited

[gentle viper]

wait, does Wisadel need at least Module level 2?

[hazy dew]

Oki ty ty, tragodia's a lot better than I thought huh , glad I asked, was originally thinking bout getting a tank or something for my other elite 2

[lyric lagoon]

wisadel then tragodia then logos then hoshi then haruka imo

[formal shadow]

mod1/mod3 breakpoints
mod1 is basically a must

[subtle ether]

is mon3tr s3 her best skill

[slim tusk]

tragodia is top 3 units alongside wis and exualt

[pseudo jungle]

also to the new players

it's perfectly fine to ask for help on which units to pick and stuff, but there's a certain line between suggestions and just being told what to do

i highly recommend for you to experience the game first, then ask the questions

[pseudo jungle]

by that i mean playing the stages, not necessarily building operators

[lyric lagoon]

depends on if you want her to be a dps that can heal or a pure buffer that can heal

[gentle viper]

this is me 100%, going E2 Thorns without caring

[pseudo jungle]

meh i would do the same thing, i like thorny

[lyric lagoon]

(though ig s3 still can buff, just not as good)

[subtle ether]

how are her heals as a dps?

[lyric lagoon]

still super strong as long as there’s an enemy she’s able to hit

[gentle viper]

finally! found a friend who understands

[lyric lagoon]

assuming she doesn’t instantly wipe them off the map

[subtle ether]

lwk i should probably still e2 leizi alter first lol. or maybe save for mlynar? leizi closer tho

[lyric lagoon]

they’re about the same

[chrome epoch]

do i still keep 3* kroos

[subtle ether]

ight save for e2 leizi alter it is

[vital kelp]

Yes these two will be enough

[pseudo jungle]

arknights isn't a game that punishes you for not making the correct decisions at the start of your account

it isn't like other gacha games where there's an explicitly clear guide on what is the "best option," simply because arknights is purely just for you and only you. you are completely free to play as you please, and the game embraces that

[subtle ether]

oh god i need 400k lmds i need spare change

[vital kelp]

Office: sike

[pseudo jungle]

it's okay to go at a slower pace; i highly recommend you just experience it on your own before asking more experienced players on what the "correct" move is

[vital kelp]

Perma account dmg

[lyric lagoon]

good thing is, any account is recoverable by playing the game, unlike most other gachas where you just gotta wait to get lucky to unbrick an account by vertically investing into a super powerful new SSR equivalent character

[subtle ether]

whats so bad abt the office lol

[pseudo jungle]

correct!

also, no character is truly "unobtainable" (save for collab operators), there's always a chance to get them in the future

[lyric lagoon]

even if you do somehow waste all your resources

[vital kelp]

Perma power loss from base into a useless undowngradeable upgrade

[torn rose]

anyone building Matsuriki? is he like a solid op to build? the stats he gives to supporter and defender ops seems tempting haha

[formal shadow]

yeah he's solid

[lyric lagoon]

very solid welfare and vanguard

[gray mulch]

Right side downgrade when

[subtle ether]

i need ines to spook me on an offbanner lwk

[candid bluff]

Building tragodia first or building haruka first ? Please help :((

[vital kelp]

Trag

[fiery lynx]

event shop got 600k
sss side mission got 200k
each IS battle pass gives you between 1.8mil-2.1mil lmd not counting for the monthly mission.
so pick whatever suits you.

[lyric lagoon]

same

[gentle viper]

Trag

[candid bluff]

Okie thanks

[subtle ether]

finished event shop xd. whats sss side mission? that one went towards my first e2 on apple pie

[lyric lagoon]

I got spooked by mlynar, mon3tr, and ulpi

[pseudo jungle]

personally, no i'm not building him

he's a good welfare, but he isn't the most efficient in dp production and supporters often don't need the dp cost reduction imo hahaha

go build him if you want

[hazy dew]

Where's this? is it in the story?

[pseudo jungle]

Darknights Memoir

[vital kelp]

Dark night memoir

[formal shadow]

cuz the dp reduction is for defender duh

[lyric lagoon]

it’s in a side story, piss easy one asw

[hazy dew]

[gentle viper]

I'm still confused to build Saria or Hoshi2 first, both are good on their own term

[silver smelt]

hoshi2

[lyric lagoon]

hoshi2

[pseudo jungle]

i guess?

but considering how long you need to actually wait for the dp reduction to really make a difference

it's easier to just pop a myrtle/elysium/cantabile and call it a day

[chrome epoch]

how do i get furniture parts

[lyric lagoon]

just kill the enemies before they reach you, and even if they do reach you, just kill them anyways

[left shoal]

Do people still use the Gamepress Team Tier List the Dead Site Edition? For Arknights Operators Tier List?

[vital kelp]

Hoshi2

[vital kelp]

No one used it before it died

[pseudo jungle]

gamepress team tier list is bullshit, don't take it

[fiery lynx]

open your sss tab and look at the top right. "seasonal missions"
click on that.

[hazy dew]

Tragodia which skill is better?

[pseudo jungle]

s2

[gentle viper]

s2 cat

[hazy dew]

[left shoal]

Talking about the Updated One, The Google Sheet one on Reddit. Before when the "Actual" GamePress Website got shutdown.

[vast nexus]

when is cn live stream

[pseudo jungle]

s2 might seem overwhelming to understand, but it's basically just

• you get a cat you can place on the map
• enemies around the cat get pulled in
• cat goes kaboom
• enemies die

[formal shadow]

that may be the case

[bold kernel]

What kinda base talent should I pair with Lappland and Texas in the Trading Post?

[arctic cargo]

thats good to hear, im scarred from other gachas that have a clear terrible picks that can brick ur account lol

[lyric lagoon]

put down cat -> cat kill

[vast nexus]

his s2 is top tier

[pseudo jungle]

-> win

[vast nexus]

gummy

[gentle viper]

4 stars ops can carry you if you want to being hardcore

[bold kernel]

bet ty

[vast nexus]

because less morale consumption for texas plus decent productivity

[pseudo jungle]

yeah

i might've gone a bit too far in my yapping, but i just REALLY wanted to stress to the new players that arknights does not punish you for making the "less correct" decisions unlike most gacha games

you can always make up for them one way or another

[bold kernel]

oh wow it gets a 102% efficiency too, goated ty

[formal shadow]

isn't gummy -morale reduction is self only

[fiery lynx]

e0 jaye or e2 ogexu

[vital kelp]

Gummy morale part is for herself only

[pseudo jungle]

exusiai, she prevents texas's morale loss

[vast nexus]

i know

not intentional misinfo i forgor

[pseudo jungle]

misinformation in MY ako help?!

[outer gyro]

whos the is3 carry

[vital kelp]

Exu2

[outer gyro]

damn i misplayed by getting trag

[pseudo jungle]

rng

i'm being so fucking deadass.
rng is the key to is3. you have to have good rng to have a comfortably good run

[chrome epoch]

is matsukiri not good?

[lyric lagoon]

he is, just not the best

[vital kelp]

That’s is2

[outer gyro]

lowkey i'm on d1 level 2 on the battle pass

[silver smelt]

Hes Okay

[lyric lagoon]

if you have no other good vanguards, then do raise him

[pseudo jungle]

no, not really

is2's rng is wayyyy more controlled. the only reason why it feels like is2 is more difficult is because the stages aren't designed for five year old children who can't understand arknights

[pulsar loom]

Hi guys who were yall talking abt that's the off chance in the banner thats one of the best supports?? (Who will also get a rerun)

[outer gyro]

oh man am i gonna have issues playing is3 as a 5 year old who can't understand arknights

[lyric lagoon]

is2 when you get funny ingots and then go brrrr

[silver smelt]

me when you get the relic of despair and hatred at the very start of your run that makes the run unplayable for no reason at all

[pseudo jungle]

no, the stages on is3 are way simpler and more boring in terms of stage design

you're just completely at the mercy of is3's rng system

[pulsar loom]

Hi guys who were yall talking abt that's the off chance in the banner thats one of the best supports?? (Who will also get a rerun)

[formal shadow]

best support is a banner-featured unit

[pulsar loom]

He's a guy and y'all were talking abt him earlier legit

Wanted to put him in my goals his name starts w T if i remember correctly

[formal shadow]

tragodia?

[pseudo jungle]

eh to me it's better than getting fucked over second floor in with your carry getting that dumbass rejection

and you're not on difficulty 16

[fiery lynx]

him? prolly tragodia.. phantom alter

[pulsar loom]

That onee

[formal shadow]

ah

[silver smelt]

Mmm true

[lyric lagoon]

I wonder if former fgo players ever get activated like a sleeper agent whenever we refer to an operator variant as an alter

[pseudo jungle]

mfw that halves-everything rejection gets inflicted on exu2 and i don't have d16:

[silver smelt]

anything thats not is4 5 6 are not real gamemodes

[pseudo jungle]

is5 isn't a gamemode, it's minecraft creative

[silver smelt]

actually fuck 4 too

[oblique haven]

i havnt figured out is5, i lose so fast in that one

[pseudo jungle]

you can literally use whoever the fuck you want and it won't matter cuz you have lamp and blueprint

[silver smelt]

Just dont play lamp slop
self report smh

[pseudo jungle]

1. pick blueprint squad
2. pick lamp of wishes
3. refresh nodes
4. win

[fiery lynx]

4 is balance.
5 is for fun.
6 is underwhelming.

[oblique haven]

people say that alot, but i still dont get it

[pseudo jungle]

i want to shoot myself in the mouth every time i play is4. the stages are so... ew

[outer gyro]

how playable is is3 if you're in grayscale

[formal shadow]

is4 is da goat

[silver smelt]

6 is "Do you get good vouchers on f1 or nah" check

[pseudo jungle]

manmade carnival is staring right at you rn

[formal shadow]

jus evade

[pseudo jungle]

you cannot tell me that is a good stage

[silver smelt]

when i get murdered by 4000 drones with mongolian throat singing ast he bgm

[robust thistle]

Manmade is fine for the most part

Just save a node convertsion fold in hand

[formal shadow]

is3 has ubi and is5 has heavenly paradise
this means that both of them are harder than letting yo bih go through yo phone

[pseudo jungle]

i once got trapped between two options

both were manmade carnival emergency :((((

[quick jolt]

shouldve just won

[pseudo jungle]

i cried for five minutes after that............................

[severe crypt]

That’s 10 minutes too much 🥹

[pseudo jungle]

[silver smelt]

me when i reroll into elusive merc

[outer gyro]

what about P=BPP? is it harder than that ❓

[pseudo jungle]

also is4 i feel like
very much restricts me on which operators i can use

cuz the dps checks you get is ridiculous

[silver smelt]

is6 has that one FUCKING f3 bonethrower boss variation.

[pseudo jungle]

and let's not forget ending1 boss where it can sometimes fuck you over and go hard mode

ngl is1 was peak even tho i never played it

cuz one of the endings is ceobe overdosing on mushrooms

[silver smelt]

ok so i was right, anything thats not 5 and 6 arent real gamemodes ✅

[formal shadow]

this is because they are singular iterations of a gamemode, and not a gamemode in itself. hope this helps

[robust thistle]

IS1 was peak even though I never played it

Yeah we'll see about that when you get triple medic start with 2021 roster

[pseudo jungle]

skill issue (this is a joke)

[mild yacht]

Just Kelsey it.

[left shoal]

ok ngl
I thought using Support Unit (Friends) won't give you 3 Star rating on stages.
When I played Arknights on Launch.
What I read back then.

[robust thistle]

No that never happened

[silver smelt]

you never like.. tried it?

[robust thistle]

Borrowing prevents autobattle, not 3 star

[pseudo jungle]

don't worry

when i first played ak (not at launch), i picked meteorite for my free 5 star cuz the top of the internet said meteorite was good

this was for my original account though, my main account is now better

[solemn carbon]

is hand of buckler (the 3% current hp dmg on abjurer attacks relic) going to work on all of the explosions from haruka s2?

[late surge]

How is this regenerated ?

[gray mulch]

Spend sanity in event

[torn galleon]

Do we need to login daily in the webevent?

[hybrid bluff]

guys is kroos alter worth e2ing?

[gray mulch]

I don't believe they count as 'attack's

[slim tusk]

not really

or low prio since marksman

[hybrid bluff]

why marksman is getting hated?

[slim tusk]

they deal piss dmg when enemy has 500 def

[hybrid bluff]

oh...

[elfin ermine]

I've rerolled 10~ accounts in the past hour, and I've even gotten the idol back to back before I got the Oni. What are the chances

[gray mulch]

The slot machine one? You can finish it in 1 sitting and the rewards aren't even good

[elfin ermine]

Should I just stick with the account that has two idol copies

[torn galleon]

Thanks

[slim tusk]

copies don't matter

mostly

[gray mulch]

Copies are really low value in this game compared to some other gachas

[elfin ermine]

Should I continue rerolling for Oni

[forest ocean]

I just pulled this unit and I noticed its the same name as kaltsit pet. Is their a combo for them?

[gray mulch]

If you want yes hoshi is much better

[elfin ermine]

Sigh, this is gonna take a while

[hybrid bluff]

it's like evolved version of her pet

[forest ocean]

Ow ok. Is it just it?

[hybrid bluff]

more powerful healer + dps

[gray mulch]

Unfortunately you cannot combine them like a gundam

[forest ocean]

yeah, I thought at first there may be a combo for them haha

[arctic cargo]

I saw on wiki that some skins are on side story like eyjafjalla's skin. was that only a time limited thing or can i do the side story still as a new player?

[slim tusk]

like what

[wind tree]

does every shot of ray s3 heals apol pie alter?

[forest ocean]

is it best to e2 myrtle?

[slim tusk]

eyja has no skin from sidestory

[left shoal]

Sadist day of my life, I thought I did it right.

[quick jolt]

hunter "ammo" is different from skills that are ammo type

[gray mulch]

Most skins other than collab limited will be collectible via other means later, ie record restore, cert shop or cc shop

[hybrid bluff]

is surtr worth moduling?

[robust thistle]

If you use her

[wind tree]

i see, got confused because it's ammo not ammo type skills, sankyu

[forest sorrel]

Need advice on unit building. Currently have Mlynar, Surtr, and Hoshi Alter at SL7. Should i S3M3 all of them? And who should i module? Mlynar and Surtr? Or only of them?

[formal shadow]

can still do side things and get rewards (with rewards having a delay for acquisition after the event rerun). but as mr nidhoggr says there are no eyja skins

[quick jolt]

yes, s3m3 all. mlynar module lvl3. surtr module it depends tbh

surtr mod maybe lvl2

[left shoal]

Does Operator Steal Kills Counts? Or no? Or that Main Op need to Kill them.

[forest sorrel]

Oh if i may ask, why is Surtr module depends?

[quick jolt]

because her usefulness drops a lot when you have hoshi

[gray mulch]

Canta has to get the last hit just let her solo them

[late surge]

Final hit with canta

[grand wigeon]

With haruka s2 m3 and level 60 how much can she heal?

[left shoal]

i-if you say so...

[gray mulch]

Put her on s1 and redeploy her on 3 different casters

[left shoal]

rip

[gray mulch]

Don't use her to hold lane

[severe crypt]

why are you using mid healers

[gray mulch]

Use her like an assassin, get in get out

[severe crypt]

gavial sucks and you shouldnt count on saria's healing

and ng is servicable but mainly used for arts dmg

[marble nymph]

So I'm trying to learn the reclamation game mode, saw a video that said you need 2 energy drinks per mission, but I definitely need 3. Am I missing something, or was this incorrect (or dated) information?

[severe crypt]

it could be because ur on hard mode, you can switch to it in the RA lobby screen, the triangle icon beside the "Start" button

[forest sorrel]

Ah i see. I read on the wiki that Hoshi 2 will be getting a module soon? Is her module good? Maybe i should use my sanity to farm her module instead of Surtr's module and leave Surtr at S3M3?

[quick jolt]

its really good yeah but it comes out in about 3 months

[severe crypt]

does it do anything diff other than more dmg

[gray mulch]

If you use more than 6 (or 7 I don't remember) ops it requires more energy drink, every drink added lets you add a certain number more ops

[marble nymph]

Thanks, I'll check that out because I'm mega starved for energy drinks sometimes lol

[gray mulch]

Difficulty doesn't matter afaik

[marble nymph]

Ah ok, I'll check on this too

[severe crypt]

yeah ur correct i was misremember how to get energy drinks via the wheat thing

[quick jolt]

not really, but it doesnt really need to. big damage increase on huge damage operator
i mean it gives her a good hp increase too which gets included in her talent

[forest sorrel]

Oh noted, thanks

[gray mulch]

Build plants and put them in your base you shouldn't be running out

[fluid flame]

btw rn my vanguards are elysium and texas.. i kinda wanna change to something better , who should i look for?

[copper oracle]

ines

[fluid flame]

Idt im getting her

[ancient lotus]

honestly just wait for silverash alter, elysium is fine enough

[fluid flame]

next joint banner 1/4 chance haiyaaaa

[severe crypt]

ditch texas

[fluid flame]

oh silalt is vang?

[ancient lotus]

yep

[copper oracle]

why

[fluid flame]

TO WHO HAHAHHA she was my best vanguard up until now (my day 1)

[fluid flame]

Not enough pulls to get her basically

[severe crypt]

ely is more than enough now, tex wasnt good to begin with

[slim tusk]

just wait for ines shop again

[copper oracle]

just get her in certs shop

[fluid flame]

ines can be in shop??

[severe crypt]

she was

[copper oracle]

she was in shop already before

[fluid flame]

that would take like 1000 years now wouldnt it lol

[slim tusk]

no?

[severe crypt]

its just random now in when ines shows up again

[copper oracle]

no lol once theyre in shop, it doesnt take long to appear again

[severe crypt]

damn didnt know ling was in shop too

[copper oracle]

typo 🥹

[wintry steppe]

What should I get from this (I'm still new tho)

[robust thistle]

Check voucher guide in pins

[severe crypt]

is this the anniversary one?

[formal shadow]

yeah

[severe crypt]

also in pins but a single sentence

[regal dust]

Will Haruka be a staple in AFK team like Ulpi?

[fluid flame]

How long is long ( an est )

[marble nymph]

Working towards that, I just started so I need to get my base to level 2. First lol.

[severe crypt]

do you think the time zone makes a difference

[ancient lotus]

yes

[left shoal]

rip, can't unlock it 🥀

[formal shadow]

est is shorthand for estimate
anyhow it's up to yostar's mercy

[fluid flame]

I mean like, per how many refresh, 2 months? 3? or more

[severe crypt]

ohhhh, also no idea

[robust thistle]

Dunno, when yostar feels like it

[severe crypt]

we dont even illegally know 🥹

[sturdy juniper]

who to pick

[robust thistle]

Not bagpipe

[severe crypt]

[copper oracle]

6ish month mayb

[half raptor]

what classes are u missing?

[sturdy juniper]

wdym

[robust thistle]

Classes dont matter, just get surtr

[sturdy juniper]

my roster is pretty stacked just dont know flagpipe or immortal arts dps

[severe crypt]

you really think an eyja/saria pot would help for reasons other than gold certs?

[robust thistle]

Bagpipe is ass and you already have the other two

[slim tusk]

i don't like abjurer range but ye if you need the sanctuary

[fluid flame]

surtr maybe

[severe crypt]

flagpipe in the big 26 🥹

[robust thistle]

Theres like only one option there

[somber gate]

Can someone explain wtf is IS? cause that things is fucking hard (or maybe im dumb af) even tho i already use friends operator, all stage have unique bs... like always

[robust thistle]

Its roguelike mode that has its own gimmick

[sturdy juniper]

is bagpipe s2 afk not pretty decent

[robust thistle]

And no its not hard, yes youre "dumb af", your words, not mine

[severe crypt]

perhaps back in fucking 2021 maybe, fuh naw in 2026

[regal dust]

Would you sacrifice collab for her?

[robust thistle]

Decent isnt good enough

Also afk in the big 2026 on a below average op

[severe crypt]

damn bag propaganda has ingrained itself into peeps

[humble nova]

Has ulpi ever been into gold cert shop?

[jolly garnet]

I’m a new player, is there anyone I should reroll for from the event banner and permanent pool? Also is it possible to get a 6* from the event banner with the free tickets? Also before I start to reroll is it worth the time to reroll?

[formal shadow]

reroll? sure go for hoshiguma the breacher

[fluid flame]

Not encouraging reroll BAHHAA

[robust thistle]

Reroll for hoshialt, reroll guide in pins

[sturdy juniper]

okaay so surtr

[jolly garnet]

Thank you!

[solemn carbon]

it becomes a lot more fun as you build up your roster of ops, even still since it's RNG it can be pretty punishing - learning the unique bs can be fun when you don't have any sanity for other stuff

[sturdy juniper]

ill bench for now coz im fucking broke

[hybrid bluff]

remind me of how I spent 5 hrs just to past d1 is 6 :3

[severe crypt]

tbf with a built roster all the ops from this selector would be benched

[somber gate]

Well yeah, you're right once you get that stupid stage all your things goes boom

[sturdy juniper]

so true

[robust thistle]

We have 5 different seasons of IS, we have like tens of "stupid stages"

[somber gate]

i mean what's the level recomendatio to play is again? cause i only use low ops

[robust thistle]

What if I told you a single op can carry on IS if youre good enough

[somber gate]

no way

[ancient lotus]

Whenever you have enough ops built

[robust thistle]

You borrow a good carry, and let them do their job

[woeful zodiac]

yes way

[gray mulch]

[solemn carbon]

it really scales in a way that requires at least one decent 6*

[turbid ocean]

Wisadel can solo IS5 @ D18 lol

[somber gate]

any suggestion... please (im tryharding to get my hoshi2 to e2 asap)

[robust thistle]

But if you dont have enough brainpower for that, wait until you have a full E1 50 squad with a few E2s

[ancient lotus]

Or…

[robust thistle]

Unfortunately there is no "suggestion" when it relies on your own effort

[onyx mango]

actually, how good hoshiguma starter in IS6

[robust thistle]

We can recommend you good IS starters, but it doesnt matter if you have zero map knowledge

[solemn carbon]

my advice would be to jump into #is-station check pinned for the is6 tips, and build raidian up with that

[somber gate]

ohh sorry, not talking bout current IS im talking about last chapter (ig the 1 operator can carry still apply here?)

[robust thistle]

What "last chapter"

[gray mulch]

Not bad at all her s2 is really nice actually

[formal shadow]

IS5 is even more braindead if you're referring to that

[robust thistle]

We have 16 main story chapters and like 20+ side stories

[somber gate]

it got mental as it own gimmick, idk what it's called

[robust thistle]

We dont know

[turbid ocean]

IS5

[severe crypt]

ohhh thoughts

[robust thistle]

If you dont know what it is, how are we supposed to know what it is

[woeful zodiac]

its all down to you playing the stages and remembering how to play them for next time.

[ancient lotus]

Usable, still better to just use raidian tho

[somber gate]

yes, i think this is what it's called

[severe crypt]

managing thought economy isnt really that hard

[solemn carbon]

some kind of brain resource (not present in the room with us)
IS is all about replayability - keep at it, check those #is-station tips for the IS you're in, borrow wisadel lol

[robust thistle]

IS is 80% knowledge check

[onyx mango]

what if, spec squad+raidian

[somber gate]

im cooked then

[onyx mango]

well, that looks like what you did

[robust thistle]

If you dont put in effort to understand the gimmick and stages then its not for you

[gray mulch]

Yeah it's like any other roguelike, you're supposed to die the first several tries and enjoy the learning curve

[half raptor]

yea

[robust thistle]

Yes its supposed to be "hard and gimmicky" because its the challenging permanent content

[half raptor]

not pot but if missing the char as new player

[gray mulch]

If you wanna "cheat" you can always look up the stage on youtube so you don't have to blind clear

[somber gate]

Im pretty sure this is the IS that i meant, im just trying to get to level 13 really (also is not recommended to buy level pass with OP right? )

[robust thistle]

Borrow a wisadel carry and use lamp strat
Read #is-station pins for that

[somber gate]

Okie thanks man!

[woeful zodiac]

yeah don't buy level. And yeah you can just solocarry this too. Same with every other one tbh.

[gray mulch]

It's something you can get for free so ofc it's not a good way to spend OP for f2p. Only whales that don't like IS spend there

[muted owl]

What is that prize pool from golden fortune ticket?

[onyx mango]

i buy level when im 1 level away from skin
(am i cooked?)

[severe crypt]

always were

[woeful zodiac]

ur bricked

Which one should I get?

Tempted to get Exusiai since i heard shes good.

[woeful zodiac]

check newbie selector in pins. it says saria.

[severe crypt]

yeah whoever told you this lying they ass off

[olive mason]

exu the covenant is good, original exu is not

[gray mulch]

That's the other exusiai

[subtle ether]

Ru sure u weren’t told about iexu2

[white forum]

I held off so which one should I get?

[severe crypt]

if they meant the other one, they were omitting some cruicial info

[lyric lagoon]

either you heard about exia2 or whoever told you that is an opp

[plain jackal]

Is Shamare a decent unit and if so what is her best skill so I can train it

[severe crypt]

saria

[white forum]

Okay!

Well i did heard its the other ver of Exusiai.

[gentle viper]

original exu is just mid, she's not that bad

[lyric lagoon]

time to shill warf exia

[elfin ermine]

DOES THE IDOL HAVE HIGHER RATES THAN THE ONI?

[onyx mango]

nop
both have equal rate

[elfin ermine]

WHY HAVE MY PAST 12 REROLLS BEEN THE IDOL

[onyx mango]

idk, skill issue ig

[white forum]

So Saria it is?

[winter crystal]

Only bad luck is guaranteed

[tiny abyss]

Vro is not John Gacha

[gray mulch]

Imagine having bad luck couldn't be me

[lyric lagoon]

bro lost the coin toss 12 times

[gentle viper]

get Mountain i would say, E1 mountain can help you a lot

[olive mason]

not worth the mats compared to kroos alt + kroos who can get you through drone stages for less

[white forum]

[woeful zodiac]

average is 20 rerolls for 2 rate up banner so ig its still within reason

[white forum]

So either Mountain or Saria..

[gentle viper]

well, i don't know how much your ops currently are

[onyx mango]

nah, she is bad, low dph in modern days

[elfin ermine]

I didn't think my bad luck would follow me here. On Genshin have an 8% winrate and on other games I haven't won 🫩

[severe crypt]

whoever said mountain dont listen to them, saria

[ancient lotus]

If you’re only doing ending 1 sure

[white forum]

I'm a beginner so not much

[winter crystal]

Saria, mountain isn’t meta advice

[olive mason]

you'll get better guards in the future and mountain falls off, just pick saria

[gentle viper]

do you already use the 4 free 6 stars ops selector?

[white forum]

Yes, went for Surtr

[gentle viper]

Saria then, she's a solid tank that only need E1

[woeful zodiac]

theres no saria "then".. saria is the only pick when u already have silverash.

[gentle viper]

i won't comment much about operators since i build Thorns E2 without hesitation

[formal shadow]

-# inb4 the SA + thorns shill

[winter crystal]

Exactly

[winter crystal]

Prob shouldn’t give advice the

[gray mulch]

I like mountain and thorns

[white forum]

Yay

[woeful zodiac]

m*le lover you might get shot

[onyx mango]

i like swirealt, doesnt mean she's good

[olive mason]

you can like bad operators, just don't recommend them to other people

[lyric lagoon]

well, she’s serviceable enough in IS

[gentle viper]

can i see all your ops?

[white forum]

Roster?

[onyx mango]

kRooster

[white forum]

Not much

[gray mulch]

Krooster.com for all your roster sharing needs (it's safe and yostar approved)

[lyric lagoon]

humble beginnings

[severe crypt]

its yostar approved in the sense that the cop doesnt care if im doing 10 kph over the limit

[onyx mango]

pretty lit start acc i see

[tiny abyss]

I heard Krooster will steal your modblocks is this true

[gentle viper]

build 3 stars first if you feel hard

[onyx mango]

i just lost 7 mods block from them taxing me

[lyric lagoon]

work on the phrasing

[proven kelp]

What if its soft

[white forum]

I heard its 4-5 stars then 6 stars since they're hard to build early this game

[onyx mango]

i feel hard indeed

[white forum]

[winter crystal]

Surtr, silverass,Lapland, silence, hakura, fang, click, saria, coura, steward :/ (then get tequila and kroosalt for free)

[gray mulch]

Perfumer is a good 4 star medic but you already have too many healers so you don't need her. Also do NOT build jessica she sucks ass

[severe crypt]

hakura

[gentle viper]

skip most 5 stars. just build 4 and 3 stars first, after that build your 6 stars

[lyric lagoon]

haruka sister unlocked

[winter crystal]

I can’t spell

[gray mulch]

Hakura ma tatas

[woeful zodiac]

its mainly 4 stars. you want to level ppl evenly till elite1 then work on priority 6 star to e2.

[winter crystal]

Added to it

[white forum]

Oooh okay, thank you!

[tiny abyss]

Reimu Hakurei???

[onyx mango]

laugh at this user guys, it's so funni

[gentle viper]

unless you want to make it hard like me, goes through all in into E2 Thorns without hesitation and resignation

[silver smelt]

does this apply to self healing

[white forum]

"I feel hard indeed"
-YOU

[lyric lagoon]

since there’s so many goddamn 5*s and most of them aren’t worth the cost compared to 4* replacements, most 5*s are mid

[subtle ether]

ts was me lwk tho not on thorns

[gray mulch]

It applies to green number heals but not passive ones

[onyx mango]

damn, doing E2 thorns really makes you hard huh?

[gentle viper]

indeed

[white forum]

Any good youtubers to watch tips on about Arknights?

[silver smelt]

DragonGJY

[gentle viper]

KyostinV for story

[onyx mango]

before the mod appear, i will take my leave

[rain forge]

Arflanyr and kyostinv have some good stage guides if you’re struggling on a stage

[fiery lynx]

PeterYR is the goat

[grim phoenix]

Guys are there any way to get the pyramid thing for haruka module(i haven't cleared 15-1,currently on 9-1)

[silver smelt]

farm AT-8

[gentle viper]

also you can watch Schiel for some awesome guide

[gray mulch]

Sciel for IS news

[tiny abyss]

You have to unlock recipe no?

[lyric lagoon]

not rn

[silver smelt]

oh thats true

[rain forge]

they still gotta beat 15-9 or whatever that stage was for the crafting recipe

[tiny abyss]

So 15-9

[grim phoenix]

It drop?

[lyric lagoon]

or 💳

[silver smelt]

it drops the piss jar not the piss pyramid unfortunately

[proven kelp]

Can't you directly skip to ch15

[tiny abyss]

Drops the mat, you still gotta beat 15-9 for the recipe to craft

[gentle viper]

you can

[woeful zodiac]

stage clear guides are good for reference in ur stage clearing. But for general tips youtube isnt the most trusty place. Best is to jus ask here when ur lost on somthing.

[proven kelp]

Grats, theres your answer

[tiny abyss]

Yea u can skip to ch 15

[winter crystal]

Gotta be able to clear the stages tho

[proven kelp]

Clearing Story stages is not really that diffuclt if you just borrow
Not like you're farming it

[grim phoenix]

Still no other way around to get the pyramid huh...

[winter crystal]

Ye but no auto 🥀

[lyric lagoon]

yeah, you missed the events that had them

[gray mulch]

It can be hard for a newbie that literally just started chill

[rich inlet]

hello i havent played arknights in like more than a year can anyone help me with roster building and what units to upgrade? krooster is in my profile

[grim phoenix]

I can progress normally i guess?(i got my ass clapped by tatulah? Boss)

[gentle viper]

story can be done if you have a decent dealers and good lane holder

[lyric lagoon]

raise ines

[gray mulch]

Story can be done with literal E0L1's, I meant a newbie will need time to learn the game

[winter crystal]

Ok well step one, start investing in your E0 Ines

[gentle viper]

Ines

[grim phoenix]

L1? What is that?

[rich inlet]

i think i was working on m3 on exe and degenbreacher before i stopped do i just quit those

[silver smelt]

level 1

[gray mulch]

Level 1. Some crazy ppl do self imposed challenges like playing with only level 1 ops

[grim phoenix]

There are? Like damn how?

[lyric lagoon]

they good dokutahs

[copper oracle]

by reading mechanics, and calculating dmg

[grim phoenix]

I'm struggling with e2 and they can do that like damn....

[gray mulch]

Yeah there's lots of different challenges like that but E0L1 is definitely one of the most impressive

[lyric lagoon]

very hardcore dokutahs

[copper oracle]

read harder

[rich inlet]

also why does base have like 6 more slots are they good to upgrade

[random kestrel]

pretty much like that
and many more micromanage that cant be see if not fully understand

[woeful zodiac]

you can skip to ch15 so just get to 15-9

[lyric lagoon]

activity rooms not worth it unless you wanna flex for sum reason

[grim phoenix]

This sound like they have the entire wiki in their head....

[left shoal]

Your telling me... BombTails-G Can Deploy their Bomb if they WANTED too... What in th-

[gray mulch]

It farms trust for you. QoL so you don't have to do 2 op trust farms anymore

[random kestrel]

more like they knew the game very well

[severe crypt]

it also increases drone cap

[formal shadow]

they bust them @ the first op they see

[left shoal]

At Ch. 5-6 one of the Drove Bomb goes on back line on your Base and Wait it out to Deploy the Bomb.

[grim phoenix]

But the story is good so i don't want to skip tho....(and i'm not sure i can even progress on chap15 due to the fact that i'm struggling on chap 8)

[severe crypt]

you can always come back and read it

[formal shadow]

it's just the preset route

[copper oracle]

they dont, they just read

[nimble zenith]

hwell butter my butt and call me a biscuit
it’s fib

[robust thistle]

No they just drop the bomb as soon as a target enters their range

[copper oracle]

omg hi jennie

[severe crypt]

please say that every time you enter #help 🥹

[hybrid bluff]

chat is there anyway I can get amiya guard without fighting ?

[grim phoenix]

Sadly no....

[woeful zodiac]

read ch15 later and just clear then. And you don't need to beat ch8 to get to ch15 is what we're saying with "can skip to ch15"

[zinc crown]

support unit

[hybrid bluff]

isn't there is a story mode or sth... I just start ch 7

[lyric lagoon]

the plot must progress…

[nimble zenith]

will you call me a biscuit if i do

[grim phoenix]

You get her on chap 8

[left shoal]

I am confused why it delay it bombs. When the Bomber Drone is already 1 cm of the Operator range...

[hybrid bluff]

right after fighting patriot?

[grim phoenix]

After j8t-2

[hybrid bluff]

zamn

[severe crypt]

will calling you a Hyundai Tucson N-line suffice 🥹

[grim phoenix]

You can search on wiki for that information

[nimble zenith]

also i just saw an endfield ad at my school
im going into endfield induced psychosis

[hybrid bluff]

is guard amiya good?

[hybrid bluff]

go and grow the factory

[woeful zodiac]

when bombtails just spawned, it needs to wait for its "cooldown" because the bomb 'skill' doesnt start ready when they spawn.

[grim phoenix]

"Good" i guess?

[hybrid bluff]

in a positive way right...?

[severe crypt]

she shit

[hybrid bluff]

😔 but her skin is pretty

[grim phoenix]

Same

[tiny abyss]

How much does Ines mod reduce her redployment time again

[solemn carbon]

holds arts dmg enemies well enough, havent gotten much use out of her other than that

[left shoal]

Yeah but it was already in my Back Line Base.... Like it was faraway from their Red Base Spawn, But it somehow waited out going to my back line... and did not deploy the Bomb at a Operator in 1 CM Range... in like 8 seconds... I was playing this map in 1x speed.

[woeful zodiac]

you can see her skin once every month when u have no choice but to recruit her in IS

[tiny abyss]

Like -30%?

[rich inlet]

ok i e2ed ines what skill do i mastery

[hybrid bluff]

I've heard her medic form is good ?

[nimble zenith]

2

[grim phoenix]

"Good" as a dps i guess?

[rich inlet]

is module important? or should i mod other ops

[woeful zodiac]

its either you have invis/camo or ur jus schizo.

[hybrid bluff]

healing?

[tiny abyss]

Not rlly for Ines

[lyric lagoon]

she’s more caster than she is medic

[grim phoenix]

She heal by dealing dmg....

[shadow bay]

modules are dependent per unit

some dont need em
some appreciate em
some badly need them

[hybrid bluff]

ohh :0

[nimble zenith]

amiya is lowkey only good because she’s less hope in most class squads
also true damage for is5 spikes

[sturdy karma]

Is it worth to use an account with ascalon on it? or should i keep rerolling for hoshi?

[nimble zenith]

hoshi is better

[hybrid bluff]

still I saw some vid showcasing amiya boss killing skill using her guard form

[shadow bay]

hmmm u can stop with asca

but u can aim higher with hoshi

[rich inlet]

why did they make another defender hoshi
which one is better

[gray mulch]

Ascalon is good if you wanna settle but hoshi is better if you wanna keep going

[true pagoda]

How to play?

[sturdy karma]

ok thanks!

[silver smelt]

Logos S3

[grim phoenix]

She deal true dmg so is good

[lyric lagoon]

satoru logos

[shadow bay]

because hypergryph

anyway mostly lean on alter coz she can actually deal dmg

og hoshi just a brick

[grim phoenix]

4 healers and a tanker that can't die

[slim tusk]

you saw meme showcasing

[silver smelt]

need to block for civs

[lyric lagoon]

#strategy if you need more info

[grim phoenix]

Civs?

[hybrid bluff]

[rich inlet]

i m3 mod3ed hoshi last time i played 🥀

[slim tusk]

guard amiya is pretty bad for boss killing

[silver smelt]

little shitheads in the back die you lose

[lyric lagoon]

ursus civilians, each one costs one lp

[hybrid bluff]

aw I was so cope

[tiny abyss]

U have 2 lp

[shadow bay]

also have her s2m3 mod3 coz neat brick

[lyric lagoon]

that’s why satoru logos is recommended

[grim phoenix]

Oh wait this ain't the tatulah? Boss?

[silver smelt]

It is talulah

[lyric lagoon]

stage after main story

[left shoal]

No Camo... got to here THEN Finally throw it... what...
Confused why the Bomb Drone didn't throw the Bomb Earlier...

[woeful zodiac]

showcase point is to make character "look good". theres no relation to other operator performance so its never a good reference point unless you watched other showcases and compare it.
But even then, showcase isnt always good

[gray mulch]

Logos eats those fireballs if you don't wanna interact with that mechanic

[grim phoenix]

So some of them are for the meme?

[lyric lagoon]

logos proving the pen is mightier than the sword

[hybrid bluff]

I see... I thought amiya was able to grow to become super op operator

[lyric lagoon]

(but it can never beat the two rifles or cat)

[grim phoenix]

She still good if you don't have anyone better than her

[lyric lagoon]

well eos isn’t here yet, so there’s still room

[gray mulch]

There was this cool clear of jt8-3 with logos and muelseye where muelseye summons block the fireballs when logos s3 on cd but I can't find it rip

[hybrid bluff]

cope

[lyric lagoon]

she still has potential

[grim phoenix]

Eos?

[silver smelt]

end of service

[lyric lagoon]

end of service

[grim phoenix]

So that mean she gonna have more form?

[silver smelt]

could be

[lyric lagoon]

potentially

[grim phoenix]

Let's goooooo

[tiny abyss]

Between Logos and Mon3 who's better if I were to buy selector soon

[kind igloo]

which one should i E2 next?

[woeful zodiac]

idk vru just run it back and deploy a melee guy on its path I don't got a time machine to solve ur mystery.
their range is abt 2~3 tiles so just dont drop them too far.

[gray mulch]

Logos is cleary more attractive and I am not biased

[slim tusk]

logos better dps but i feel like mon3tr more unique

[tiny abyss]

Leaning towards M3 cause I think she's more versatile plus Logos is could be in cert shop later this year

[silver smelt]

if its defender amiya maybe defender tag can be less dogshit

[proven kelp]

Logos is mael so he lose by default

[lyric lagoon]

also M3 our granddaughter

[gray mulch]

If you care about IS logos is one of the only good caster choices

[lyric lagoon]

are you going to be an absentee grandpa?

[silver smelt]

thats true can tey make caster tag less shit too

[tiny abyss]

I select Lin for Yan

[proven kelp]

I'd rather save hope

[slim tusk]

logos is not that good in IS

[lyric lagoon]

mantra about to go right next to him soon

[proven kelp]

It being better doesn't mean its good
Just save hope for something more important

[gray mulch]

Yeah but if you get really unlucky he's one of the few options

[lyric lagoon]

rhode island truly is peak caster (except blaze the igniting FRAUD)

[quick jolt]

caster voucher is useless in like all IS lol its just for getting medimiya

[woeful zodiac]

what if ur playing tact destruction and you have every important specialist 🥹

[silver smelt]

blazealt is better than wisadel

(in max risk cc)

[severe dew]

which combination would be the best here

[proven kelp]

Supporter and pray Suzu

[winter crystal]

Logos

[left shoal]

Idk but... Use Arknights DB Website?

[silver smelt]

idt either of them are worth 30 dollars imo
...saying this as someone who bought logos for 30 dollars

[severe dew]

got her thanks

[silver smelt]

I did it because I like logos not because the kit is worth 30$

[grim phoenix]

So guys should e2 lv70 phip?

[tiny abyss]

Well solo banner gurantees op at 150, no?

So it's worth 150 pulls..,..,.,, plus 10 pull ticket!!!

[woeful zodiac]

technically nobody is "worth" $30 cause you can get everyone for free.. buying selector is just a choice of whether u wanna get it or not

[lyric lagoon]

also you don’t need top meta to clear content

[silver smelt]

within those pulls you cant expect a specific offrate anyway so

[lyric lagoon]

unless you wanna do max risk

[quick jolt]

i still think mlynar is best selector choice

[gray mulch]

Realistically you won't be getting an op if they have no banner upcoming

[silk parrot]

this feels like a dumb question, but does the arts protector 'deal arts damage while skill is active' apply to Hoshi's S1? (or unlimited duration in general?) I don't see why it wouldn't but it sounds too good to be true lol

[lyric lagoon]

unless lady luck smiles upon you

[quick jolt]

ofc it does

[silk parrot]

yummy

[quick jolt]

unlimited duration skills are active skills

[silver smelt]

i bought it not to clear but because waifu ✅

[lyric lagoon]

she’s an arts defender, assume it unless otherwise stated

[lyric lagoon]

for a male…

[tiny abyss]

I wanna collect

[silver smelt]

I fail to see the issue

[sturdy juniper]

how does this work on abjurer onskill

[grim phoenix]

Should i e2 lv70 ptilopsis?

[frank wing]

does haruka's s2 bubble explosion hit air?

[silk parrot]

ty, is this one of the ops where there's no obvious skill to m3? S3 is awesome but i can see the other two being just as useful

[silver smelt]

Hoshi2? no, the obvious choice is s3

[woeful zodiac]

logos is more dad than waif. He will hop on his stool to buy milk for u.

[tiny abyss]

So Logos or M3? (serious)
