pram when zero usecase unit

[rain forge]

Other options are abysmal dogshit so yeah silence

[rain forge]

Can we cope prefarm trust for pralter as a usecase

[ancient current]

[lunar apex]

I mean pram in IS

[ancient current]

tf does pram do in IS

literally shamare

[dapper canopy]

fake unit

[delicate scaffold]

Is there any aggregated info as to what should I prioritize from event shop? Id swear I have seen something mentioned but cant find it...

[rain forge]

Buy everything

/eventshop in #bot-spam to see what the most sanity efficient purchase is

I would say to buy out all of matsukiri’s tokens first

[median fable]

check the Kyo guide, put in support the operator he's using

[ancient current]

wat if no trag raidian ines

[lunar apex]

Give up

[median fable]

even if you have them people won't use them unless lv90 m3 and mdo3 🥹

[ancient current]

someone's borrowed my kaltsit, is she used in ccb4 at all?

[lunar apex]

I saw a strat using kaltist and raidian

[median fable]

she didn't have enough usage to consider it that much

if someone wanted true dmg they could have just borrowed mon3tr

[worldly sky]

if i have a guarantee four star from recruitment what time do I set jt to

[ancient current]

is mon3ter used in ccb4 at all?

[ancient current]

9h always

/rectags in #bot-spam if anything

[median fable]

she's kinda core lol

[ancient current]

oh

[median fable]

at least for high risk, 620 there are many options

[ancient current]

didnt use her at all for 625
okay well i'll put both her and kal on support then

does nymph need mod3 for ccb4? or mod1 fine

[median fable]

honestly I'm not aware of any breakpoints with her mod

if it's for s2 mod1 should be more than enough

[ancient current]

ic thx

[median fable]

there was also blaze2 usage for some of the high risk cc

the first max risk clear featured the burn team

[ancient current]

interesting, i've used her for 625 but didnt know she worked in higher diff

[median fable]

Yu, Lapp2 and Blaze2
got optimized but still a valid strat for many

[olive lagoon]

How do I beat this dragon

Like what should be my setup

[ancient current]

you didnt draft contrail so you lost-

(don't think contrail has is6 usecases)
either way, hitcount matters here iirc

[olive lagoon]

I didn't even get a single specialist recruitment voucher my entire run

[ancient current]

@median fable did u do ed2

[median fable]

https://www.vxbilibili.com/video/BV111YYziECf/
in case you're interested in the clear

[median fable]

yeah, what about it?

[ancient current]

question above

(that's ed2 right?)

[median fable]

which diff are you playing? And are you doing some sort of challenge because I see ops that you shouldn't have drafted

[olive lagoon]

10

And no challenge I'm just trying to beat ending 2 for raidian masteries

[ancient current]

you need ed2 for raidian masteries?

[lunar apex]

why not just do d5 ?

[median fable]

wasn't it ed3?

[olive lagoon]

Idk it's scroll of scars and the black white thingy

[lunar apex]

Thats module

[ancient current]

doesnt matter if it's ed2 or ed3

fuck... i've never done those

[lunar apex]

and its ed3

[ancient current]

wat units do i need for ed3

[olive lagoon]

[median fable]

flamebringer, ptilo, hoe, courier and even mon3tr aren't ops so good to draft

[keen knot]

which should I foucus on first? lumen or shinning?

[olive lagoon]

Most of them were temporary recruits from early game

[ancient current]

is neither an option

[median fable]

I've read module instead of masteries because d10 doesn't unlock them but d7 iirc

[keen knot]

well I like emm

[lunar apex]

The usual with some good ground unit because the pathfinder battle to trigger ed 3

[ancient current]

ok then if you like them lumen first

[median fable]

yeah, you wasted these tickets anyway. You'd rather have saved the ticket and used it later on pathfinder

[keen knot]

thx

[lunar apex]

Yea d7 and some certain squads

[median fable]

you lost because you drafted bad ops, there isn't much to say

[ancient current]

wat is the usual i havent done is6 much
wat are used ground units on ed3 d10

[olive lagoon]

I was using archetto is module with 150 ingot chalice buff

[median fable]

you got chalice mid run? Even if you did there are better ops to draft than her

[olive lagoon]

Anyways which ops should I use cuz I've been trying to get raidian masteries for like an entire week now and haven't got past m1😭

[lunar apex]

the usual are trag and raidian exu
ground units ppl used are leizi, hoshialt,...
not too different to is5 run tbh
leizi are pretty good in here because her take off can destroy talisman quickly

[solid fractal]

Which of these would be better to e2 first

[ancient current]

errrrrr what if i have none except raidian hoshi

[ancient current]

hoshi > ulpi > haruka = zuo imo

not sure about haruka or zuo but you'll do both anyways

[median fable]

1. if you struggle lower the diffs, for mastery you needed d7 and clear th ending with specific squads iirc
2. draft the usual good ops for is6. Exu2, Trag, Leizi2 ecc ecc (avoid Wisadel since she will be targeted by the sui remnant body)

[solid fractal]

Aight ty

[lunar apex]

I think mlynar and wisadel can do it instead
also ines, like you dont really have to worry since the team you bring is almost identical to how you play is5

[ancient current]

wat if no wisadel
and mlynar ines sl7 modless

dunno the breakpoints

[olive lagoon]

My wisadel fried brain cannot plan this

[lunar apex]

As far as I know, under d11 can be beaten with just special squad and borrow exualt

[ancient current]

hm ok ty

[median fable]

you can also consider gettin like 17+ lp and just leak left side

[ancient current]

[olive lagoon]

What works better against the hand? Arts or physical

[lunar apex]

Any dps is fine, the problem is surviving the shockwave and bait the hand

[olive lagoon]

I heard the barricade thingy can bait the hand

[median fable]

yeah, get someone like a frdp to deploy it on the left bottom side to bait it once th ebar is getting close to being full

if you drafted canta/surfer you can use them

[lunar apex]

Yep, use frds, avoid deploying all your operators and notice that the hand can insta kill everything on the field when reaching 50% hp

[olive lagoon]

Including crushers?

[echo hinge]

is this a permanent banner, or does it go away if I don't summon?

[lunar apex]

it forces retreat

[rain forge]

permanent

[olive lagoon]

So the - 65% deployment cd coin is good here then

[lunar apex]

yea but the -2 deploy limit kinda mess with your bait

[median fable]

you can wait so you kill every enemy first and then deal with the boss alone if you lack some spare ops in the deployment zone

[olive lagoon]

That's probably still ok with summoners

I mean raidian

[lunar apex]

if you have the relic that summons doesnt count in deploy limit then yea it should be okay

[olive lagoon]

I hate dragons

[median fable]

ed2 is not that hard overall speaking

you just wasted tickets on trash temp choices

even if they are free 95% of the times you should just ignore them

[olive lagoon]

Getting to the ending is the hard part cuz most of the time I get absolutely destroyed by floor 3 sword glaive spear

[median fable]

who do you start your runs with?

[olive lagoon]

Depends on the recruitment voucher

Hoshialt
Raidian/Tragodia
Ascalon

[median fable]

can't you just borrow Exu2?

[olive lagoon]

Exualt is good here?

[median fable]

kinda meta, yk

[olive lagoon]

I have her but I never use her

[median fable]

I'd say the best operator overall speaking

[olive lagoon]

[median fable]

unless is5 Exu2 is the best in all ISs as a start lol

[olive lagoon]

Which skill?

[median fable]

generally you just use s2, s3 is gimmicky but it should have usage for sth specific

[olive lagoon]

Is Leizi really the only good guard for is6

[median fable]

Mlynar is good, in is6 though you'd rather draft Leizi2 even if only for the Yan status

[olive lagoon]

I don't have Leizi alt😭😭😭

[median fable]

use Mlynar then

[olive lagoon]

Is Ulpianus good for ground tile or are defenders better

[high plinth]

is pepe a decent unit?

[fallow salmon]

is lvl 120 max?

[fathom nest]

Good damage but kinda annoying to use

[fathom nest]

He's arguably better than most defenders

[lyric lagoon]

tanks better than 90% of defenders

[olive lagoon]

For is6 too?

[fathom nest]

No

[median fable]

we could nitpick but kinda

[olive lagoon]

I usually never use guards at all in my runs past floor 3

[abstract mauve]

there's still a handful of good guards you can draft. sakiko would get added to that list soon enough

[copper oracle]

sounds like someone doesnt own leizi

sakiko draft sounds omega fake

[lyric lagoon]

soloed by fast enemies

[abstract mauve]

nop. balls. she is omega cute and like probably good

[copper oracle]

i dont understand how ppl use sakiko without aspd or cheeto, but if u bring cheeto its like 2 ops for the performance of 1 and aspd isnt guranteed unlike is5

[abstract mauve]

ok but like did you consider that ling loop ed5

[median fable]

can't you just get chalice?

[abstract mauve]

there's chalice and the tangbao but that isnt remotely guaranteed. both are rare 🥹

[copper oracle]

yep just bring lamp of wishes to is6

[median fable]

sounds like someone doesn't highroll

[minor breach]

i wanted to ask if the "limited" banners like hoshiguma and the haruka banners have reruns and what's the duration of each limited banner and what's the standard banner

[copper oracle]

highroll runs are sleepers, u should rate ops on midroll or lowroll runs

[median fable]

did is6 expansion 2 already happen?

[abstract mauve]

ye

[copper oracle]

yes

[median fable]

when? I may have missed it

[abstract mauve]

like a couple days ago

[copper oracle]

like 2 days ago

[lyric lagoon]

they’re now only off-rates, haruka may be a featured on a future standard banner, but this specific banner won’t rerun

[split sphinx]

2 weeks no reruns

[median fable]

what did they add there?

[copper oracle]

ed5 chongyue

[abstract mauve]

ed5. and d18
and new squads and skill tree shit

[minor breach]

limited banner lasts for 2 weeks?

[fathom nest]

All banners do

[minor breach]

ohh

[lyric lagoon]

chongyue IS mod when

[copper oracle]

never pls

[median fable]

Ik it's speculation, but they released Dusk IS mod in the previous Sui event. Doesn't seem that far fetched that Chong will get one

[lyric lagoon]

but like, there is nian asw

[median fable]

Nian IS mod when she will be just more bulky in IS 🥀

[crude monolith]

whats the recommended starting squad for is6?

[fading ridge]

uhm sorry if this is a stupid question but i really cant find it, the drill plan and where to use it

[violet siren]

is it better to use yellow certs for a good 6* or is buying them for hh tickets fine if u have 256?

[random shard]

Can vary some based on difficulty. Trag is great at low difficulty. Exualt + raid for 4-10
https://is-central.github.io/is6-sui/is6-progression/ this has some great info for starting

[split sphinx]

do practice mode

[neon siren]

Guys, should I be expecting atleast one of the x5 6stars from just base pulling for 300 pulls?

[random shard]

Do you just ask about the banner every day?

[neon siren]

I mean, helps me keep motivation lol

If u r annoyed I'll just stop lmao.

[random shard]

Krooster has a headhunting page that lets you see the 'averages' you can expect

[neon siren]

Should I delete the msg?

[neon siren]

Huh alr, thx, I'll go check it out then.

[neon siren]

Sry abt that if u r annoyed, just helps me keep motivation, if u want me to stop I'll stop

[lyric lagoon]

genuine gambling addict

[random shard]

It doesn't get specific with the increased rate off rate like i expected but there may be another tool that does

[neon siren]

😂.

[median fable]

are you the one who wanted to spark Lapp2?

[split sphinx]

bro likes the attention of people telling him don't spark

[ancient current]

if you're annoyed you keep your mouth shut, thoughts

[neon siren]

Wisadel, if I get her then I'll spark someone else lmao

[median fable]

[neon siren]

Alr alr I'll stop. If I did like it I'd be doing much more lol

[median fable]

take it as a reference, numbers will be slightly change since differen pool size by like a couple of ops

[neon siren]

Ahh thx, I'll stop yapping abt the banner now then lol

[violet siren]

anyone?

[ancient current]

258

[neon siren]

Based on what u want i think

[ancient current]

also depends on the op

[median fable]

it's better to buy a good 6*, but the key part is "good"

[violet siren]

either waiting for logos or using them for tickets now to try and get haruka

[median fable]

Logos won't be in shop for like 9/10 months, just buy pulls

[violet siren]

kk

[ancient current]

who'd be worthy as debut shoperator before logos again? no one?

genuinely forgot banner timelines

[median fable]

idk, Ray I guess

[untold palm]

Huh are these operators coming back

[ancient current]

oh ray forgot she existed
ya sure

[median fable]

there is also Ascalon close to him

and Ulpi right after, they are all solid for 180 gold certs

[ancient current]

1800

[median fable]

depends also on what they'll release in the coming months, currently we don't have many great banner to pull from apart Sakiko and Celebration

[true pagoda]

Should i buy any of these?

[ancient current]

mod blocks mainly

[split sphinx]

is ulpi worth 1800 certs

[random shard]

When an op is a limited op they will start to show up again as off rates a year after their release

[ancient current]

id buy kal for 1800

anyways yeah forgot about ulpi and asca, def worth

[untold palm]

Ic

[split sphinx]

are you sure? 1800 is equal to about 265 pulls

[ancient current]

yep

[random shard]

I guess I'll be more specific, off rates on that same limited banner type they came with initially.

Right now with hoshi2 we have specifically summer limited vs cny or the other one

[bitter anvil]

prolly is, but it depends on lineup, logos him and asca might be close and those are higher prio than ulpi imo

Before them is ray also, man what a lineup

[violet siren]

how long until they appear approximately?

[split sphinx]

HG really pushed the powercreep around wisadel banner eh

[abstract mauve]

more like new era of unit. most of new units are really good nowadays

[random shard]

In a hypothetical where you have to pick between asca, ray, monster and hoederer for a banner which three do you pick

[abstract mauve]

erm. what is hoe doing in that selection

[median fable]

roughly it's release date + 2 years

[random shard]

He just strictly worse? I'm only vaguely aware of what he does

[abstract mauve]

he's worse in most aspects ye

[median fable]

can I say this is kinda useless hypotetical since:

1. don't buy Hoe
2. Ray and Ascalon are far apart enough that you save for both
3. Mon3tr was just released and won't be in shop for close to two years

[maiden thunder]

Aspd s1 cope ahh unit

[abstract mauve]

jj. i think he's hypothetically talking about a potential orienteering banner

[median fable]

oh, I was still thinking about gold certs from the previous discussion

[random shard]

I have the other options that are worthwhile and I guess overestimated hoes value

[median fable]

still, useless hypotetical since Hoe sneak in there doesn't make me think that much on who to exclude

[abstract mauve]

this is what CN got. hopefully we get something similar or even better

[bitter anvil]

obviously asca, ray and mon3tr

there maybe IS Enthusiasts who alr have so many snipers they might go for hoe, but they can think for themselves to make that decision

[lyric lagoon]

meanwhile in 2027 we’ll prob have like trag line-up

[median fable]

logos, mon3tr and ray/asca sounds dope, ngl

[abstract mauve]

CN had this lineup 🥹

[median fable]

the least obv bait banner lol

[lyric lagoon]

honestly who invited eben

[split sphinx]

gimme logos ascalon mon3tr

[abstract mauve]

is it really bait tho if the units are just really good 🥹

[bitter anvil]

I mean if the next banner is titi

[median fable]

Sui banner will be a good one, trust me

[gray mulch]

It's actually worth though

[paper gyro]

Is it unusual that Hoshi2 banner ends 4 days before her event ends
(6 days vs 10 days)

[violet siren]

so like asca, logos around october this year and ray around july until they appear in yellow shop?

[lyric lagoon]

honestly just cuck one of the suiblings and make them a welfare but somehow make them raidian tier

[gray mulch]

Especially if you're missing 3 of those it's at least worth going for one 6 star

[bitter anvil]

I trust, if it's one of the sui siblings we have seen as boss, we might alr be hinted towards kit too

who knows if YI becomes playable he can nuke the map and solve IS6 ED5a, all hypotheticals ofcourse

[abstract mauve]

why are you doing this to me. what did welfareknights players ever do to you

[bitter anvil]

they would never do that lol

[lyric lagoon]

if astgenne had to suffer, they too will suffer.

[abstract mauve]

they dont release 6* welfare on CNY so it would likely never happen

[bitter anvil]

plus it's cny exclusive unit, for such an important entity to be welfare

[maiden thunder]

What event did this banner come with again?

[split sphinx]

they end 1 week apart

[worldly sky]

if ive gotten ceylon, krooster, and tequilla, are there any other stages I should unlock as a beginner

[maiden thunder]

So long,Adele

[violet siren]

is ray worth getting from yellow cert shop if u have lemuen tho?

[random shard]

Different kinds of snipe

[lyric lagoon]

just play ammoknights

also ray has more control than lemon

[abstract mauve]

depends on whether or not you already have ascalon logos ulpianus yk. the units that released around the same time

[bitter anvil]

Ray is strictly better for ST situation me say, plus bind tech

both Lemon and Ray are really good tho and that's what makes them kinda close too, Lemon obv better for AOE type of situation

[violet siren]

dont have any of those

[abstract mauve]

i would rather just save gold certs for them instead personally

[violet siren]

oh alright

[gaunt vapor]

@proven kelp no CeO for me I pick just ranged

[lyric lagoon]

peak

[violet siren]

kinda regret using using my yellow certs for hh tickets now ngl xD

hopefully I can get enough for both logos and ascalon when they come

[maiden thunder]

We don't have byro in newbies voucher guide yet?

[split sphinx]

you get hella certs when you pull so nothing gto worry about

[median fable]

it's really good value, dw

[gray mulch]

Astgenne deserved it for taking what should've been cliffheart's

[split sphinx]

assuming maxpot4, dupe5, and new6... you get roughly 0.92 certs/pull

[brazen gulch]

||can i borrow some luck from you 😭 ||

[lunar apex]

@echo venture

[split sphinx]

does blud think this is endfield

[abstract mauve]

hermitz can you smite this guy pretty please 👉👈

[lunar apex]

its a bot

[split sphinx]

interesting

[brazen gulch]

reunion invaders

[abstract mauve]

they posted same thing in #friend-id and #trading-post

[lunar apex]

Last time there was another bot with the same AI pfp

[torpid radish]

Am I missing something or is hosialter actually mid as hell

[abstract mauve]

is she e2'd?

[lunar apex]

I hope you dont expect insane damage coming from her

[torpid radish]

Yea

[echo venture]

smh filthy scammers

[abstract mauve]

how often are you using her retreat functionality?

[maiden thunder]

She does have good damage idk what's wrong with expecting that@lunar apex

[torpid radish]

Not really but it's just a bit disappointing

[lunar apex]

Some people have wisadel dmg level expectation

[abstract mauve]

wisadel doesnt even deal that much damage

[lyric lagoon]

we need a “lost endfield player” counter

[brazen gulch]

well she's a defender. i don't know why you would expect her to deal damage on par with actual dps units

[torpid radish]

Is that her main attraction? Not that much

[abstract mauve]

it's not her main attraction, it's just a part of how she functions that might be good to make use of. using it too much or too little is wasting her potential

[bitter anvil]

it will get significantly better after module, the main poblem with her is no res shred, against a low res enemy her dmg is bonkers tho

[abstract mauve]

also ye new mod is like 25% damage increase

[torpid radish]

Yea she handle trash very well

[lyric lagoon]

class doesn’t mean much as opposed to the actual operator

[fair orchid]

Does monthly squad only give vanguard chips or nah

[abstract mauve]

no. it's different for each one

[fair orchid]

How does it work I just got is

[maiden thunder]

All IS have 4 Chips for each classes with the exception of IS6 since it's still running and currently at guard chip 🥱

[broken mirage]

is it normal that the story has no voice acting? or im just bugged or something

[maiden thunder]

Nah,you read

[mild yacht]

There’s almost no voicing for the whole game.

[abstract mauve]

there's is2 is3 is4 is5 and is6. is2-is5 have monthly squad available at all times. is6 has only this month's monthly squad and the past is6 monthly squads will be available at a later date. each monthly squad in each IS gives chips for the classes. the classes are different so you can get chips for each class

[broken mirage]

cool ig

[pseudo jungle]

fun fact: hoshiguma alter s3 does more damage than surtr

[brazen gulch]

if we're violating top-level class defs, i don't know why we still have them. i think it's reasonable to think that an arts protector will deal less damage than a core caster

[maiden thunder]

Low bar

[abstract mauve]

1. depends on res
2. that's a low ass bar

[broken mirage]

is surtr good? i just got her

[abstract mauve]

shalem deals more damage than surtr post mod 🤫

[bitter anvil]

for arts dmg the bar is logos, compare fo him

[maiden thunder]

Serviceable

[lyric lagoon]

bro doesn’t know about horn phys damage…

[maiden thunder]

Is his s2 affected with aspd?

[vocal ferry]

does surtr have her 2nd module?

[pseudo jungle]

yes, she trivializes almost the entirety of the game

she isn't "serviceable,"
she's ridiculously good

there are simply other operators who deal more damage than her, but that isn't to say that her damage decreased by any means

[maiden thunder]

So he instantly explodes with enough aspd? Nice

[abstract mauve]

she's just decent. nowadays there's enough better damage options to not have to use her but if you have a limited roster, she can be nice. she was like the best character in the game a few years ago

[sharp flax]

I reached 291 pulls to get hoshi so now I have 300 token and I can either get a pot 2 hoshi or pot 4 haruka which is better

[broken mirage]

nice

[lyric lagoon]

comparing diamonds to platinum doesn’t mean that one automatically becomes trash

[abstract mauve]

err. the health drain is unchanged. i thought you meant the attacks

[fair orchid]

How do I use the monthly squad for is6 I don’t see a option to use it like in is1

[bitter anvil]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1145312466163728425/1465403684279291915/plot.png?ex=6978fb08&is=6977a988&hm=b99d9fe5618d18885a07f1397fa5931ee86e2ab89fd72e334766e1f2ebc86d74&

[abstract mauve]

brother what is this graph

[lunar apex]

pot 2 hoshi for 1 less dp cost
or perhaps you might be interested in any other limited ops ?

[fair orchid]

Nvm I’m actually b,ind

[pseudo jungle]

this.

ppl b acting like surtr's completely washed

[maiden thunder]

EN can't read I thought he loses HP per attack not by second

[median fable]

Surtr isn't bad but she's kinda washed

[sharp flax]

Pot 2 is the redeployment time as for haruka it is the buff to her talent 2 and I have the other limited units

[maiden thunder]

Surtr is washed tho? Idk why I wanna wait 75s for dps and such small range

[rain forge]

damage difference CANT be that high

[abstract mauve]

surtr doesnt have total damage on the bot so it defaults to dps

[rain forge]

this bot jank as hell

[median fable]

that's because it counts Surtr s3 not having sustain I guess

[abstract mauve]

even without sustain surtr s3 is not 2k total damage 🤫

[lunar apex]

haruka can heal just fine even without talent boost
Hoshiguma extra redeploy time reduce might benefit her s3

[bitter anvil]

It does say on the top it's total dmg for hoshi and logos but not for surtr, weird

[median fable]

oh yeah, that's true

[bitter anvil]

I can calculate the total dmg gimme a second

[abstract mauve]

this is very normal if you use this bot long enough

[median fable]

she's like 90k iirc

[abstract mauve]

some units the bot creator just didnt bother with working out so they simply didnt

[sharp flax]

Hoshi seems to be the better choice after all

[median fable]

for some reason the graph use Surtr dps and not the total dmg

[earnest sparrow]

@pseudo jungle seems to be because of tragodia dying as it's the main thing I used to make this run work
but that's definitely weird I actually auto-deployed AT-8 the whole week and only now did it fail for the first two time

[nimble kite]

SURTR IS WASHED NO FUCKING WAY

[pseudo jungle]

i see, you should probably redo your auto deploy

[broken mirage]

chat should i focus on upgrading my operators or continuing the story im on chapter 2

[lyric lagoon]

both, also focus base

[maiden thunder]

Big dawg go farm the event currency then exchange for recourses in event shop(Ato)

[broken mirage]

alr

[maiden thunder]

Ato btw not that fuckass CCB#4

[untold dawn]

Is this worth getting?

[lunar apex]

yes but would be better if its other class

[maiden thunder]

Kaltsit pots🤯

[untold dawn]

What about the 5* tokens?

[maiden thunder]

Fuh nah

[abstract mauve]

no lmao

[maiden thunder]

You either get the royal tokens because this is the best way to get them or just get the Mats.🚬

[abstract mauve]

wtf sun mats slopper

[shrewd peak]

dont bother with potentials unless you are at a point where other things dont matter

[maiden thunder]

Specialist tokens>whatever the fuck tbh

[rain forge]

imo if you're new i'd prioritise bibeak

[pliant patrol]

Are Purestream or Perfumer worth using for IS6? My only Medics are Silence and Ptilopsis

[rain forge]

purestream's pretty good

[maiden thunder]

Purestream is pretty goated there for being yan(silence and ptilopsis are ok but E1 should be enough)

[rain forge]

she's also just a pretty solid 4* pick overall

[pliant patrol]

Is she worth going E2? Or is E1 enough?

[maiden thunder]

E1 should be fine but e2 gains with masteries mod1 is pretty good

[split sphinx]

purestream is nice

[rain forge]

if i want the purple currency when the ato rerun comes around should i buy the furniture in the event shop or nah

[maiden thunder]

Buy

[gray mulch]

Definitely do e1, e2 optional but nice to have

[split sphinx]

I'm p sure the furniture gives you more pulls than welfare pots

actually maybe not

[rain forge]

[shrewd peak]

furniture is more than gold certs for pulls until you cap it

then its not that different

[rain forge]

i see

[pliant patrol]

Is Gummy worth building for IS6 as well?

[lethal chasm]

Who should I spark with headhunting certs? I already got haruka and hoshi.

[silk pike]

omfg i just realized theres the invisible units on AT-EX-8

[split sphinx]

e1 max is fine

[rain forge]

theres camo units on at-ex-8?
i dont remember there being any

[pliant patrol]

S1 is preferred, right?

[split sphinx]

did you do 300 pulls

[young glacier]

Someone at Hypergryph shilling Ines i swear

[lethal chasm]

Took me 290 to get hoshi unfortunately

[silk pike]

yeah, the black holes on the ground, i kept waking them up and getting ines killed

[rain forge]

dang

[silk pike]

i only realized after beating the stage, and watching it on youtube

[split sphinx]

they all feel bad to spark but eyja2 ig. she has elem heal niche tho it comes up like never

[lethal chasm]

Ah okay. Might as well get her though if I have 300 to use

[rain forge]

does sa2 s2 invis reveal reveal enemies before dealing damage or does it deal damage then reveal invis

[austere wagon]

next restock is there chance still more time to pull haruka?

[maiden thunder]

Ejyaalt niche is global healing

[upper veldt]

might be the biggest fraud of 2026 (not even vergilius slander from limbus compares to this)

[split sphinx]

right she does that too yeah

[earnest sparrow]

huh

[upper veldt]

idk it seems kind of strange that all he does is tank

[rain forge]

[upper veldt]

but that's my opinion at the end of the day

[rain forge]

i mean he's essentially just a slower and gimmickier crownslayer

[lunar apex]

This guy is like patriot but worse

[silk pike]

??? tf you slandering verg

but yeah his EX8 form is so tanky

[upper veldt]

the agenda must continue fellow citizen

[split sphinx]

just have mlynar kill p1 when boss stops on bottom

[rain forge]

atleast patriot threatens your ranged units a bit

[silk pike]

had to nuke him with ela+mlynar+degen

[rain forge]

[silk pike]

sorry man idk either

[hardy merlin]

why is hoshi s3 so strong

[lunar apex]

Try saying something wrong maybe people would get agitated enough to correct you

[maiden thunder]

[gray mulch]

Judging by the text I’d say it deals dmg first then reveal. The skill itself ignores invis

[rain forge]

[split sphinx]

Good mult, good range, good cyle

[upper veldt]

base or alter?

[hardy merlin]

alter idk why its so storng with exu alter

[charred gate]

Who should I select from the upcoming Kernel Headhunt? Which operator would be the best?

[winter crystal]

you should just ignore kernal altogether

[split sphinx]

The combo is that hoshi2 overdrive kills herself then exu2 s3 lets you deploy hoshi2 again and do it again

[ancient lotus]

its a strong standalone skill, exu s3 just makes it so that you can use that skill twice in a short duration. exu s3's initial SP buff also shorten the 8s start up which is already decent

[charred gate]

I have Kernel tickets, lol
I have to use 😂

[magic dome]

Hi, its my first time playing CC well technically 2nd time but last time meh don't care about CC, focusing on other event back then, anyway as of now I can only accumulate 2600 CC bounty? Also any recommendation what should we get in the store

[ancient lotus]

generally speaking you should always grab the royal tokens

[coarse notch]

i would skip this kernel, the 5 star options arent great

[magic dome]

I almost purchase skins earlier thinking can make more CC but thank goodness I'm testing out and nope no more additional CC bounty

[coarse notch]

otherwise kal/ceobe are decent choices

[hardy merlin]

is hoshi alter s3 dps equal to mylnar

[lunar apex]

I think you can push extra 20 for that trimmed medal

[coarse notch]

less

[upper veldt]

when the "retreat after skill deactivation" unit is strong with the "deploy the unit with the largest deploy CD for free" unit

[winter crystal]

kernal ops to hunt for are kalsit, ceobe, suzu, uhhhh idk thats it, if you dont see any of them then dont spend tickets i guess

[magic dome]

Ah yes the trimmed one, I'll try that later thanks for reminding me

[hardy merlin]

😭

[charred gate]

Thanks! What about Gnosis? Is she any good?

[split sphinx]

Hoshi2 is strong on her own. No need to go into this exu2 gimmick

[coarse notch]

hes very niche

[winter crystal]

"He" and meh niche

[charred gate]

Thank you ❤️

[pseudo jungle]

he's situational, though not useless

[charred gate]

Oops, my bad 🙂 thanks mate ❤️

[pseudo jungle]

i can say this as someone who has a maxed out gnosis

he shines mainly in high-end content

[maiden thunder]

Gnosis niche and meh💔 just wait his IS mod

[hardy merlin]

do i mastery s2 or s3

[coarse notch]

s3

[hardy merlin]

what about haruka s2 or s3

[coarse notch]

s2, check pins next time

[pseudo jungle]

or well
end-game content

he's not that useful until you get that once in a while event where he saves your ass

better to just borrow him when u need him

[bitter anvil]

even after IS mod, gnosis is niche, but among niche ops he is a good one

so usually a more advanced player would think of certing him ig

[severe crypt]

Counterpoint: karlan base team

[pseudo jungle]

nod nod nod i can confirm as gnosis haver

[bitter anvil]

the exodia one? If you have ops to complete that team u don't need to be asking about gnosis in the first place ud have to be such an old player 😭😭

[magic dome]

Should I get Chen alter or just leave the 200 headhunting data contracts and convert it into 1200 headhunting parametric models?

[pseudo jungle]

[severe crypt]

Karlan is not exodia wtf

[bitter anvil]

just get chen, she's a decent sniper, especially if ur missing the best ones (ray, lemon, wis)

[hardy merlin]

Will SA alter be limited or 6* selectable

[pseudo jungle]

limited

[bitter anvil]

oh I thought gnosis was part of exodia or whatever

[magic dome]

I do have both Lemuen and Wis'adel

[severe crypt]

[hardy merlin]

How can i suddenly produce 200 pulls

[pseudo jungle]

https://tenor.com/view/credit-card-smacking-credit-card-on-table-gif-21340324

[lunar apex]

Do side story stages

[coarse notch]

exodia is perception information/worldly plight team

[hardy merlin]

ig time to lock in

[coarse notch]

aka a billion limited operators for slightly bigger number

[young glacier]

How many CNYs until we get infinite mood combo in exodia

[pseudo jungle]

if u ever get gnosis and decide to build him, choose his x module over his y module

there rly ain't any reason to use his y module unless ur a kjerag bitch and want the faction wide buff

[bitter anvil]

I would personally go for chen but if u really value those mats uty, chen might still prove useful to you someday, altho it's hard to justify taking her over lemon and wis in 99% content

as of rn I can only see some usage in IS3 since u mainly only draft ranged phy units there, and chen does have true aoe useful for izumik

[pseudo jungle]

his s3 is his best skill but s2 isn't half bad either

he doesn't necessarily require the masteries to fully function as a supporting debuffer but it's nice to have

[coarse notch]

is chen even used for ed4 now
still think you should get chen btw

[young glacier]

For Kjerag bitching wait for his IS module which turns Steward into icefridge

[pseudo jungle]

i'm already a kjerag bitch

[magic dome]

I'll go for Chen then, Chen > ~20 T4 materials. Thanks

[bitter anvil]

she can help, again wis and lemon are better there but if u have the extra hope she's a pick for jellyfish

rn the main viable strat is to just hole izu anyway, after pram2 u can starve viably again, altho atp idk how useful is chen

[pseudo jungle]

ch'en is still good damage + reliable slow in one kit

she's mainly there as a sub dps and make wisadel better (when u use wisadel) cuz of her ammo talent 🫩

[maiden thunder]

Just go certs lmao🚬

[lunar apex]

Dont have weedy

[bitter anvil]

yeah just do pram strat later if u wanna beat bro at d18
below d15 tho u can just brute force

[pseudo jungle]

with that being said if u want crowd control for ur wisadel, would recommend just building or borrowing an ethan and calling it a day

chen expensive af

[maiden thunder]

Like realistically when are u pulling that piggy Chen out when u have these snipers like wisadel/lemuen to draft

Like what are we doing? Just do 2 kichisei spark(my wife) and be done with it

[bitter anvil]

wisadel and lemon don't have the crowd control, technically u could say they control crowd by nuking it

but if u arent on high roll, those jellyfish might still survive wisadel and lemon, chen can slow them atleast

[pseudo jungle]

kichisei mid as fuck

[maiden thunder]

Omg I won't fucking go sniper ticket for CC unless it's ray

[pseudo jungle]

just use pinecone

[bitter anvil]

26 gold certs vs chen alter, yeah ik the pick

[maiden thunder]

It's pretty easy 26gold certs>something u won't realistically use

[magic dome]

It took me 182 pulls for Hoshi alter, and still have some free pulls gonna get me up to 196 pulls, gonna do another 4 pulls for 200 so I can get Chen since its just another 4 pulls anyway

[agile geyser]

Whoo

[maiden thunder]

Fuh nah,just cut loses and spark kichisei

[bitter anvil]

pocket change vs a niche 6* op

[lunar apex]

shes washed

[maiden thunder]

A niche u won't ever use bro stop coping

[magic dome]

Kichisei max pot already

[pseudo jungle]

lmaoooooooo

[maiden thunder]

That's the point@magic dome

[magic dome]

Ohh gold certif I see..

[bitter anvil]

buying 2 kicheshi would give u 26 certs when she's max pot

ngl me don't think its worth unless ur really despo for those certs. Just get chen and embrace sniper medic

[pseudo jungle]

26 gold certs not worth
u can get that so easily thru recruitment

[lunar apex]

how much orundum is 26 certs ?

[agile geyser]

What does pin react mean

[pseudo jungle]

if i were to be so honest
maybe 20-30 pulls worth at most

[hushed niche]

Are any of the joint operation units good?

[bitter anvil]

258 certs = 22800
26 = 2297

[maiden thunder]

These types of questions are so basic we have made a whole section to answer them,check the answers in pinned messages>teambuilding/vouchers guide for newbies

[bitter anvil]

bro 258 certs is 38 pulls wdym 26 certs is 30

[pseudo jungle]

not worth breaking your bank for imo
they're all just "okay" units

[agile geyser]

Im new here, didn't know. Thanks

[pseudo jungle]

ohh i thought they meant like
getting gold certs from pulls
mb gang, i can't read loool

[burnt bridge]

anyone have ulpi s2m3 full module?

[lunar apex]

Either choose the optimal option or spark a washed unit simply because you like them

[maiden thunder]

It's ok,just make a habit that if the question sounds simple then it's best to check the pinned messages.

[bitter anvil]

u dint need full mod for the cc afk guides btw

[magic dome]

I have, Rouzaki#3931

[burnt bridge]

i dont have gladia up yet, and my acc can do it with full, but my other only have module lv 2

[worldly sky]

whos a strong caster I can get as a beginner

[maiden thunder]

Steward/click

[split sphinx]

26 certs is equal to about a whopping 3.5 pulls

[bitter anvil]

Hoshi Click

[burnt bridge]

i sent you 🫃

[worldly sky]

i have hoshi alter but i thought she was a tank

[maiden thunder]

E1 steward>E1 amiya(cold take)

[maiden thunder]

Don't care too much about the classes they are signed too,care more about what they do

[bitter anvil]

she will do arts dmg to both ground and ranged units and do better job than any caster u get at the beginning of the game

[magic dome]

Tank Caster I would say myself xD

[worldly sky]

ok bet

ive just been struggling with air does she hit that at e1?

[bitter anvil]

e2, I think her S1 can technically hit air if the aerial units attack her

[maiden thunder]

Use s1🤫 ,ok but it's mainly her s3 u wanna use

[worldly sky]

alr

[split sphinx]

If air, you need anti air like kroos2 for early game

Castera dont prioritize fliers

[hushed niche]

What will the pity for sakiko’s banner be? And how many free pulls will you get when her banner goes live?

[worldly sky]

i have exusisa e1 level 40, is it worth running both?

[bitter anvil]

10 on day 1, 10 again on day 10 I believe(?) I forget

Total 120 for hardpity, 20 are free so you realistically need to save 100

[ancient lotus]

very early sure

if you're still pushing through early story it's fine to run 2 marksman

exusiai at e1 40 is right about the sweet spot, don't level her any further

[young glacier]

Kroos alter stuns will be helpful in chapter 9 and some optional content

[worldly sky]

got it, also, is there any aoe I should go for? I have kichisei but i dont think shes very good

ive been using haruka as my aoe 💀

[bitter anvil]

Hoshi S2 is true AOE and Hoshi S3 hits 3 targets at once, dont think u need more multi target

[unkempt condor]

hey im a returning player and I need help deciding on which operators to upgrade. can I send screenshots of who I have right now in this chat?

[young glacier]

Depends on content, AoE useful when many weaker targets, physical damage fall off against high DEF

[bitter anvil]

send krooster instead, its a website, link ur account, it auto imports everything, then share the link

[unkempt condor]

oh ok

[worldly sky]

im still struggling with aoe rven with skill 2 on most stages

[bitter anvil]

Silverash can do 6 targets at once I think

[worldly sky]

ok ty

[ancient lotus]

if its image spam pls compile them in an album using stuff like imgur, krooster.com link is ideal

[split sphinx]

just use krooster gng

[unkempt condor]

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

[lethal chasm]

What level do I put Hoshi at again? Is it 60?

[unkempt condor]

i need help in deciding who to upgrade and who I should save for in the upcoming banners

im currently working on building logos to e2 lvl 60

[echo hinge]

is there a unit from around the year after Arknights came out that is still extremely good rn?

[split sphinx]

Logos exu2 hoshi2 lemuen all raise

[bitter anvil]

save for Saki, u have a lot of missing masteries ngl.
in random order coz it would be a headache to give u priority here (generally dps units come first, depends on what u need more)

to build all these u need money btw, I didn't spot proviso in ur account, (unless u have her and me just tunnel vision) with free 5* selector can get her and put in level 2 tp (e2 her if u can) with another highest % worker for permanent more lmd gain

Lemon E2 S3M3 Mod2
Hoshi Alter E2 S3M3 (S2M3 can do later or skip)
Ines S2M3
Exia Alter S2M3 Mod3 (S3M3 later)
Logos E2 S3M3>S1M3 Delta Mod3
Eyja Alter S3M3
Texas's best skill is S3 but if you use S2 exclusively ig it's fine too, not a prio
Cantabile S1M3 (S2M3 can do later or can skip)

Some niche units to invest in would be (mainly for IS or CC or other niche content)

Silverash Mod3
Ceobe S2M3 Mod3
Nightingale S3M3 Mod1
Kaltsit S3M3 + IS Mod3
Angelina S3M3 IS Mod3
Hoederer S1M3, S3M3 Mod1 (this one is mainly for IS5 tho)
Gnosis can also be raised after he gets IS module, he can also be useful in cc sometime for low invest accounts

Also up ur base slaves, use /base slave command in #bot-spam or use the base sheet in #r-i-i-c pins for optimal base, u need lmd and exp for all this, and base is perfect to get that

[severe crypt]

Might as well use outlook atp

[coarse notch]

none that are extremely good in general
kaltsit and rosmontis are very good in IS, archetto in IS is offmeta but fun and pretty good
surtr is decent, mostima is very niche, suzuran is good but niche

[split sphinx]

None of them are close to meta. Still good units tho, can clear p much all content you need

[echo hinge]

so how long till Exu2, tragodia and wisadel aren't top 3 anymore?

[coarse notch]

no idea how we're supposed to know that

[lyric lagoon]

how long till eos ass question

[vast estuary]

Is hoshi alter s1 worth m3?

Aight tyvm

[coarse notch]

hg could powercreep them tomorrow, or let them ride for years

[echo hinge]

if bleach brave souls makes like 10k per month at it's 10th anniversary, surely Arknights will reach 25th anniversary

[coarse notch]

arknights has a slightly higher operating cost than whatever that is

[lyric lagoon]

bleach brave souls has like nothing outside their game cause of the ip they originate from

[split sphinx]

Arknights also makes 4,000 times more than 10k

[echo hinge]

it was an exaggeration

[lyric lagoon]

the two games also operate on very different philosophies

[median fable]

they will stop being top 3 once someone stronger gets released

or maybe someone as strong gets released and it turns into a top4

[solemn wraith]

Damn bro 😵‍💫

[lyric lagoon]

or someone weaker somehow gets a broken ass module

[lunar apex]

....in IS

[solemn wraith]

I would like to see rosmontis is mod in general

[lyric lagoon]

IS is 90% of the gameplay loop anyways

[bitter anvil]

very rare for a non IS module to make an op that much better to compete with likes of wisadel and exu

they generally don't give alr good units very broken mods. Like sure u could give Lemuen a mod like that and massively increase her dmg output but why would they do that

[echo hinge]

it was a braindead question i just come up with meaningless questions when im baked

[lyric lagoon]

so it’s just blogging

[bitter hornet]

where can i find the link for the list of like ops for base? i remember there was a spreadsheet a while back (like combos in base)

[lyric lagoon]

#r-i-i-c pins

[fair orchid]

Is any banners coming up worth pulling u alr got the two featured from hoshiguma banner

[fathom nest]

Sakiko from the collab

[river shadow]

I need to strategize

The usage of my elite 2 training card

[severe crypt]

Pins but the answer is usually tequila, assuming it’s the 5 star one

[clear dawn]

whats max base level

[worldly sky]

for the event, do I grind at-8 or just do whatever mats I need

[severe crypt]

Ideally you grind that stage cuz idt we have better farms for that mat soon

[worldly sky]

8?

[ancient current]

base level? control center you mean?

[clear dawn]

yeah

[ancient current]

5

wait or was it 6

[robust thistle]

5

[ancient current]

it is 5 i'm not tripping

[paper swan]

Which Defenders have the 4 block module?

[ancient current]

matterhorn croissant hoshi

and nian

uh that's it iirc

• heavyrain

[neon inlet]

what do I do with the red certs? I have 600, is there any priority there?

[ancient current]

module blocks mainly

[neon inlet]

so I buy this every time, right?

[ancient current]

yes

[neon inlet]

ok thanks

[void magnet]

are there cc week 1 medals?

[winter crystal]

They reset at the end of every month so you’ll be able to buy them again soon

[gray mulch]

I don't think so you can leave it last minute and do it all at once at the end if you want

[worldly sky]

whats best to kill the at-8 first boss

[robust thistle]

any dps that hits decently hard

[ancient current]

provence one cycles

[worldly sky]

do i need an e2 to beat it

[robust thistle]

no?

where does it say that you need an E2

[worldly sky]

just for the damage

im using hoshi alter surtr raidian and i cant seem to kill it

[robust thistle]

you can just, borrow one

[worldly sky]

im trying to 3 star for autofarm

[robust thistle]

you can 3star with borrow

[worldly sky]

you cant autofarm if u borrow

[robust thistle]

and if you cant autofarm AT8, you can farm 6 or 7

[worldly sky]

right but im asking how to beat it so I can farm at-8, is my team not enough rn?

[ancient current]

move to #strategy with your squad

[worldly sky]

ty

[granite needle]

How can i put Surtr into this team?

[ancient current]

can kill bagpipe or something

[winter crystal]

yeah bagpipe can be gone, was looking at exu but you dont really have any anit air beisdes her 🥀

[granite needle]

exusai my goat, she will never leave the team
(wish i came back earlier for her alter)

[robust thistle]

imagine needing anti air in 2026

[severe crypt]

Despite her being one of the weakest links?

[granite needle]

Bagpipe will combust and Surtr will take her place

[severe crypt]

Also typhon s3??

[granite needle]

yessir
with the spec thing

[robust thistle]

yeah thats the wrong skill

[severe crypt]

[granite needle]

tf u mean wrong skill
what was i doing back then

[robust thistle]

yeah its the wrong skill

[severe crypt]

As a guy with m6 typhon, that’s the wrong skill

[granite needle]

S2 then?

[worldly sky]

is there a way to prog base faster or do u just gotta wait for drones

[ancient current]

as a guy with s1m3 only typhon, this is indeed the wrong skill

[prisma thorn]

use sanity. (don't)

[severe crypt]

You have s1m3 reed ur an exception

[gray mulch]

You're the first person I've ever seen to use eyja s1

[severe crypt]

OH WAIT THAT IS S1

[robust thistle]

haruka should be on S2, exalt needs his mod3

[granite needle]

I think i forgot to set it

[robust thistle]

mlynar also wants his mod

[granite needle]

I forgot eyja doesnt have skill 3 yet, thats why

[robust thistle]

typhon also wants her mod, all your ops are so old they want their mod to function really

[gray mulch]

Yeah for a sec I was like "wait why does her skill look like that" I haven't seen that icon for years

[misty idol]

With an account with Hoshigama Alter and Qiubai, who should someone go for in the selector with: Mountain, Saria, Exusia, Silverash, and Thorns?

[robust thistle]

still silverash

[ancient current]

silverash

[misty idol]

Ok! Thanks

[granite needle]

I'll get to the mod mines then and hopefully my people are on right skills now lol

[robust thistle]

just follow the voucher guide

[gray mulch]

She should be on s2 anyways

[native cargo]

Whats best banner for ppl just starting the game rn

[ancient current]

hoshialt

[polar hollow]

hi how many free pulls are left now? 3?

[ancient current]

should be yea

last one is on the 29th

[granite needle]

Also I do have an Archetto if Exu fails me, S3 the right one there?

[ancient current]

yes

[granite needle]

Also should I spec Typhoon, Haruka, Eyja or Kal'tsit first?

[ancient current]

uh haruka > kal > the rest tbh

[tidal pond]

Does anyone here outdps her?

[ancient current]

idk how exactly the bot calcs hoshi2 dps

[gray mulch]

Leizi s3 with 3 walls would win

[paper gyro]

I thought you'd calc it manually in an excel sheet

[ancient current]

no i suck at math

[tiny hedge]

Who are the top vanguards to borrow? Working on those long 400 count stages

[gray mulch]

Ines

[ancient current]

if it's for annihilation you can just use myrtle

[paper gyro]

Hoshi2 does arts DMG and get DMG drops around 80 res and flatlines at 90 res, iirc res reduces %arts DMG
Setting it at purely low res enemies (average has 25% res?) puts hoshi dps at higher than the others

[tiny hedge]

Ya annihilation. I want sure if I wanted to build Myrtle myself. I have her. But have surfer built too

[ancient current]

myrtle e1 lv1 sl7 with surfer will be fine

[paper gyro]

I copied a low squad guide and used courier.. with myrtle

[tidal pond]

Which damage calc do you use?

[ancient current]

the akdpscompare bot, in dragonjy's server

[neon inlet]

wich one is the good matsukiri skill?

[copper schooner]

I should probably raise nian in case I need 4 sui

[ancient current]

do you have a question

[ancient current]

s2 unless not many defenders or supporters in squad

[neon inlet]

I have 2 and 2

these are the other vanguards I have

[copper schooner]

I also have chongyue he not as valuable in high end content right

[ancient current]

havent heard of any chongyue usage

[copper schooner]

Because this cc i think people only use him for 4 sui or an extra body block

[ancient current]

don't people use the other sui

[granite needle]

So since exu alter was like 2-3 months ago, do you guys think I have enough time to save for Spark when shes sparkable again?

[copper schooner]

I think i only saw nian yu and shu the other were just slotted in for just to trigger the buff

[ancient current]

sparking isn't a great idea

[copper schooner]

Could be wrong

[granite needle]

isnt it the only way to get her though?

[ancient current]

or by getting lucky with a spook
but yes

still, that's 300 pulls for 1 unit
gotta see what cn releases before that

[granite needle]

oh right, You can still get 6* on any banner in this game

[ancient current]

no, only the standard ones

exualt is limited so she'll be an offrate on the next celebration banner

[granite needle]

I see
and by celebration banner you mean anniversary? or any celebration banner

[ancient current]

anniversary

check pins for limited banner pools and types

[granite needle]

👍

[elfin loom]

is it worth trying to fish for ejya alter

[ancient current]

do you have haruka/hoshialt

[elfin loom]

yes

[ancient current]

don't bother

haruka is literally an eyjalt powercreep

[elfin loom]

ah

[tiny hedge]

should i be using surfer 2nd skill? I feel like she doesnt get me enough DP sometimes

[broken mirage]

is matsukiri good?

[severe crypt]

Better than flags, worse than agents

[ancient current]

s1 is used most of the time

[wraith kayak]

How to fix this? I cant Play normaly beacuse game crashes often

[ancient current]

try #tech-support

[wraith kayak]

Okay

[hollow stratus]

Who should I prioritize building first?

[lyric lagoon]

hoshi > haruka (only e1) > tragodia (e2) > haruka (e2) (make sure tragodia has skill level 7 though)

[hollow stratus]

Ty

[granite needle]

Im very down bad for LMD, is Cargo escort worth using Sanity for? dont remember if that was fine in AK

[lyric lagoon]

utilize base with proviso, shamare, and tequila

[worldly sky]

how do u do the krooster binding email stuff? will it just not work if u used a google acc

[tiny hedge]

I deployed her but i dont see my DP going up anymore. something Im doing wrong?

[prisma thorn]

she needs to hit an enemy

[tiny hedge]

ya i put her in front and she's been killing enemies left and right. no dp movement though

[ancient current]

she needs to be on skill

[prisma thorn]

(her s1 is a passive) only lasts 17s with sl7

[tiny hedge]

is the 1 DP generation only for the first 15 seconds or something?

[prisma thorn]

it's while her passive is active
active from deployment

[haughty silo]

is haruka eyjalt power creep?

[tiny hedge]

so she should be gaining DP the whole battle?

[granite needle]

I dont have tequila, is there a replacement?

[prisma thorn]

no her passive only lasts 17s if it's skill level 7, and 20s with m3

[tiny hedge]

i see, oof i need alot more than that. why is she considered good?

[abstract mauve]

just go get them

[tawny wedge]

Anyone know you get this profile picture?

[prisma thorn]

it's just for early dp gen
you can also redeploy her

[granite needle]

Is there a way that isnt gacha?

[severe crypt]

So long Adele record restoration

[tawny wedge]

Thx

[pine plover]

he is welfare unit, aka free

[severe crypt]

Pray tell what banner you think he’s on

[prisma thorn]

dossoles holiday welfare

[granite needle]

ah

[pine plover]

[tawny wedge]

Do you also happen to know where to get the Steward skin 😭

[tiny hedge]

Do I need another vanguard? Should I build Myrtle or the new green 5* guy

[shadow bay]

pretty sure that one is given in a vignette event or something

[pine plover]

aint that from login event reward, take a long while to return as purchaseable

[pine plover]

surfer is enough

[tawny wedge]

Ohhh, so it’s like one of those ‘claim after 7 days’ then takes years to go in some kind of shop, right? Or would it be sold in an event shop with event currency

[tiny hedge]

ok i will just use surfer for now

[winter crystal]

Haruka heals more but eyj heals elemental damage

[granite needle]

huh

[elder ermine]

why tf the game keep unequipping my Mlynar's skin everytime i start the game????

[pine plover]

do you play on two device?

[azure river]

is 80$ worth it for Haruka + Hoshi Alter + Eyja Alter + Gavial Alter and Ch'en Alter? I have never whaled this hard before so i cant guage if this was worth the large amount i spent

Ik all of them are limited but 80 bucks is too much imo

[elder ermine]

majority of the time PC but i sometimes open on android in case of away from pc

[haughty silo]

which one's better to bring?
and thank you so much man for answering, i was eyeing the whole chatter til now and thought to myself maybe I'm just asking a dumb question here

[elder ermine]

haruka for general healing, eyja for the range and elemental healing

[abstract mauve]

haruka in like 99% of cases

[winter crystal]

no dumb questions but for general content Haruka is your best bet if you need elemental healing you can just borrow eyj

[haughty silo]

okay thanks both of you, you guys are nice peeps

[shadow bay]

you're welcome

[severe crypt]

Doesnt haruka’s range cover the same number of tiles as eyjalter

[copper schooner]

What

[severe crypt]

Like the number of tiles her range has, is it equal to the number of tiles eyjalter’s range has

[elder ermine]

you tell me

[severe crypt]

Oh damn yeah I was tripping

I kept thinking haruka had three tiles ahead not two

[winter crystal]

Completely up you, we don’t know how important that 80 bucks was but the only ops of importsnce imo is hoshi alt and haruka

[abstract mauve]

rbp known fraud

[severe crypt]

Ok homeless

[humble nova]

Okay but like she backshots the backside so 👍

[abstract mauve]

brother?

[copper schooner]

Huh

[severe crypt]

Didn’t need that statement homie

[winter crystal]

Well I regret reading that

[severe crypt]

Yeah damn how do you manage to outstupid me in the next second that’s crazy

[humble nova]

Sorry i immediately saw some haruka and eyjalter comparison and had to put that

[severe crypt]

No you didn’t

[copper schooner]

Help when there no mod

[elder ermine]

should i pull for ave mujica or just save for silverash siblings alter? i have like 20k

[abstract mauve]

they both arent like very high prio banners just decent banners sooo

[winter crystal]

well you get free pulls during both events so....pray i guess then make your decision on the last day

[abstract mauve]

like if we get 1 good good unit on CNY, their priority will fall off a cliff

[winter crystal]

wait silverash siblings? is that during the silverashbaner or another one

[elder ermine]

i don't really care much for ave mujica aside from them being collab characters and i'd much rather guarantee getting both silverash siblings

[humble nova]

In that case get the daddy sash, swing swoosh swing

[copper schooner]

Wait do we just get 20 free pull flat out for collab?

[humble nova]

10 first 10 next week iirc

[copper schooner]

Oh

[glacial timber]

is swire alter good

[pine plover]

for base

i had discussion about how bad secondary sp system like her coin is, 3 years prior to her release

[balmy wren]

Hey guys, Im quite new to all this arknights thing, ive just started playing a week ago.

There was this anniversary thing, where you could choose a 6 star operator. I chose Saria, but am now regretting i didn’t get Surtr. Do you think it would be best to restart or are you saying just go with it

[gray mulch]

Do you have hoshi alter?

[balmy wren]

Nope

[abstract mauve]

what 6* units do you have?

[gray mulch]

Then you can restart lol

[pine plover]

dont you not get the anniversary 6★ selector if you make new account now?

[abstract mauve]

i dont think you get a 6* selector ye

[bitter hornet]

can someone tell me what "clue exchange" means. like after you get all the clues you get 30%?

[balmy wren]

lmao really?

[gray mulch]

Just checked. You get the 6 star selector even if you start now. But you don't get the 5 star selector or savage (but they're whatever)

[shadow bay]

ops search clue 30% faster

[frank hedge]

when you get all the clues and activate exchange, and the exchange is ongoing, you get +30% search speed

[pine plover]

about clue exchange itself, after you get all clue, there is button 'clue exchange', you exchange the clue you got for friend credit, it lasts for 24hr, and if your friend visit during that time, you get bonus

[bitter hornet]

ohhhh thank you forgot it takes time

[balmy wren]

well i guess then ill restart

[gray mulch]

Show us your 6 star just in case

[gray mulch]

Yeah you can restart haha

Go with surtr and silverash. If you're rerolling go for hoshi alter

[frank hedge]

how come exu has skin if you just started?

[gray mulch]

There is a newbie voucher guide in pins

[balmy wren]

where is that exactly

[patent heron]

Outfit voucher is given with a 6 star selector

[frank hedge]

right forgot about that

[gray mulch]

#help message

Ignore the reroll tier list btw

[arctic hawk]

Its pinned for a reason

Its good enough to consider even if not fully agreeable

[proven kelp]

Check Roadless Camelot for Reroll guide

[balmy wren]

Where is that ✨

[candid berry]

Does it make sense for me to level gravel? got the special thingies to e1 her and should I take saria or take exusiai and level some other defender? And I heard a lot of kroos praise so should I level her or blue poison/platinum? (Don't have myrtle or baseball tank yet if that helps with anything)

[proven kelp]

#help message

Check the first link in this message

[severe crypt]

Cantabile is right there

[abstract mauve]

ok see this resource is significantly more agreeable than the previous reroll guide

[candid berry]

Don't like her

[proven kelp]

[turbid ocean]

yk what good stuff fae

keeping it small and limiting what they need to pay attention to

[severe crypt]

Ok but she’s your best vg currently

And can be used in similar situations as gravel albeit not as frequently

[gray mulch]

Good shit much better than the old one

[candid berry]

And the rest, should I take Saria or exusiai / should I level a sniper?

[gray mulch]

Like as a character?

[candid berry]

Yeah

[severe crypt]

So you don’t wanna use her despite her being the best vanguard you have

[gray mulch]

Well if you're just gonna play by waifu tier then why even ask here

[candid berry]

The dp gain only being for a couple seconds after deployment doesn't sit with me right, feels, like I gotta stare at the range in slow mo to deploy her the optimal second, and then she just dies with barely paying herself off

[edgy dirge]

Any recommendations on what op i should get-

[gray mulch]

You can do most of story just playing with waifus it will just be harder and probably take a lot more time

[severe crypt]

SHES FUCKING UNTOUCHED

[gray mulch]

Maybe raise her first

[random shard]

Level 1 > dies. Who knew

[severe crypt]

If you said that about e2 lvl50 s1m3 maybe we could debate, you have NO ground to stand on rn

[gray mulch]

Personally I'd take guaranteed ifrit. You can gamba for nightingale though if you're feeling lucky

[candid berry]

I mean imma get spectre in a couple days and you get bagpipe choise so I kinda just got/gathered for them

[edgy dirge]

No im feeling terribly unlucky 🙏

[severe crypt]

Who’s giving you these choices

[candid berry]

New player

[tiny abyss]

Do tokens refresh every cc or is it one time buy

[candid berry]

Here

[severe crypt]

That last selector is where you shoulda got ptilopsis

You picked liskarm for the first one didn’t you

[random shard]

I mean they have ptilo. E2

[candid berry]

Maybe

[gray mulch]

They refresh once in a blue moon

[severe crypt]

So you chose mid/ass units yet you’re here tryna argue a good unit isnt good

[balmy wren]

Well its not quite clear to me, when to i exactly decide to reroll? like how far do i advance

[candid berry]

I mean the tierlist I looked at had all 4 in same tier so I kinda just took a defender since I only had gummy and 3 stars

[severe crypt]

Aye there’s the rub

[random shard]

Just for whatever selectors you have left I suggest you take a look at the pins

[edgy dirge]

Tierlists for reference only 🙏

[severe crypt]

Spoiler alert, general tierlists absolutely suck, you got got

[tiny abyss]

So not every cc

[random shard]

If someone makes a new account now do they get the surtr selector?

[tiny abyss]

Tier list sucks, there's too much factor to account in using a unit

[random shard]

On top of looking at the pins you might consider just rerolling and tryin for a better start

[gray mulch]

They get surtr selector but not the 5 star anniv selector or savage which don't really matter anyways

[severe crypt]

A tier list may work in very specific circumstances, like certain is endings

Generally tho, tierlists can’t communicate the nuance of ak ops

[quartz imp]

If i trade this in do i lose any current hp?

[gray mulch]

I believe you play until the game prompts you to pull on the beginner banner. Quit out of the beginner and pull on event (hoshi not joint op). I think you can claim extra pulls in the mail

But someone else here might know in better detail

[severe crypt]

You keep the hp

[gray mulch]

+life, hope, shield, squad, deploy are all perma

[candid berry]

Where are pinned msges other than the 6 star selector?

[severe crypt]

Scroll down to useful links

[gray mulch]

Are you asking how to see pins?

[candid berry]

ty

[random shard]

You expand the selector message for the others besides the 6* one too

[burnt lintel]

is it worth to put masteries on her Skill 1 for afk purposes?

[severe crypt]

Technically s2 is the main afk skill

[tiny abyss]

Doesn't gain much from it

Wait does take off block the jumpers and flying ninjas

[glacial timber]

Does anyone know if Mostima module works? her talent when i deploy her says slows enemies within her attack range by 15 percent but her her module says it slows enemies outside her attack range. Is this a persistent debuff from thje moment I deploy her?

[proven kelp]

Yes

[lyric lagoon]

s1 is really just for clip farming “dies of cringe” memes

[tiny abyss]

And the M3 cost 6 peeramids wtf

[shadow bay]

just say u cant afford it

[tiny abyss]

Aight gonna m9 her

[unkempt condor]

how do you downgrade reception and office?

[tiny abyss]

You don't

[gray mulch]

You don't

[unkempt condor]

shi ok

[tiny abyss]

Vro got permanent base damage

[gray mulch]

Congrats you've bricked yourself

[upper mist]

Which would be a good option here

[tiny abyss]

Uh Support for Suzu/Saria/NG??

[unkempt condor]

use this and choose the tags that would give u something u want
https://akgcc.github.io/recruit/

[humble arrow]

Honestly correct answer

[tiny abyss]

Still gamble tho 3/8 Iirc

[humble arrow]

Its 3/3

[tiny abyss]

Isn't there other ops with support tag too

[gray mulch]

Dps support? Do you have SA?

[tiny abyss]

Oh darn dps support

[humble arrow]

SA in the big 25

[tiny abyss]

Aak

[proven kelp]

[humble arrow]

Shi its the big 26 now

[turbid ocean]

Rather pure support

[gray mulch]

At least aak is fun

[turbid ocean]

Not the metric we use to give advice

[gray mulch]

Is phantom still used in IS actually

[turbid ocean]

No hes not

Kind of never used outside of relicless

[proven kelp]

He can be used
Better than getting anyone else in the pool

[gray mulch]

Really better than SA?

[turbid ocean]

Well if you’re account is developed yes

[proven kelp]

Everyone gets SA

[turbid ocean]

Because SA doesn’t contribute to a developed account

[gray mulch]

I guess

[turbid ocean]

Waiting for the is5 gvg players to show up

[gray mulch]

Returning players won't have him though so not everyone

[proven kelp]

Fib said SA is now ass even in GVG

[turbid ocean]

Returning implying that they have other operators on their account

[humble arrow]

I play is5 gvg and pure support tag every day lol

[turbid ocean]

IS5s?

Idk about any other IS tourney standard don’t follow anymore

[upper mist]

thanks

[proven kelp]

Ask Fib
He only told me that modded Mlynar is better

[turbid ocean]

I think it’s just harder to open with but yeah Mlynar should outperform

Sash Gvg is already hard to play

[green rose]

Whats the best way to get ato bazaar tickets?

[turbid ocean]

For the shop? Just farm the farming stages

#bot-spam /eventfarm

[misty idol]

Is she strong? Or.. Do I continue rerolling for Hoshi alter?

[gray mulch]

She's strong but stopping would be a settle not a high roll

[haughty holly]

Hi Light long time no see

[gloomy fossil]

Are any of the summer operators good? I’m thinking of rerolling and picking ak up again

[fiery canopy]

where is our promised dusk nian yuri

[gray mulch]

Current banner both rate ups are good

[gloomy fossil]

For a new acc?

[misty idol]

How about this? I already have a reroll acc with Haruka and Chen Summer Alter. Is there any point keeping this acc now?

Both are Snipers

[gray mulch]

Not bad but chen alter is not as good at low investment. Haruka is great but is a healer so you won't be prioritizing her until later

You can settle or keep going up to you

[fallow salmon]

can you change the new ui (old dream) to be the purple one permanently?

[glacial timber]

is my team good enough for integrated strategies? just wanna hold over until i can unlock my 6 stars. any suggestions?

[gray mulch]

Yes hoshi alter would be what you wanna aim for as a newbie

[burnt sun]

guys how do i beat izumik in is3

[misty idol]

I see. Thank you

[limpid jacinth]

my friend started an ak account to get the 6* selector (surtr) but it isn't in his mail, is he too late or is it still there?

[gray mulch]

I don't think so

[pale tapir]

I don't believe new players get it
had to be playing before anni
but yeah double check depot anyway

[gray mulch]

Did he check depot?

is there a way or a guide to get more treasure pouches in that stupid bloody event minigame for the medal

When you guys can't push story, if there is no event, how do you spend sanity on a daily basis?

[pseudo jungle]

which integrated strategies are you talking about?

is2 → possible with good friend supports (you are lacking burst dps)

is3 → possible with a good ranged stunner & elemental medic

is4 → lol no

is5 → yes with lamp + blueprint abuse

is6 → lol no

1-7 rock farm
always rock farm
rock farm is the answer

or you chip farm

Please update lol I’ve been telling newbies to reroll because I thought they could still get this
