help

[gloomy fossil]

This is the better arknights server, not the factory one

[slender quail]

Euhm who should i summon for

[median fable]

wait

[slender quail]

Hmm?

[median fable]

Sash2 and Pram2 will drop sooner or later and you'll pull on that banner

[slender quail]

Okey ill wait lool i just diwnloaded the game was wondering who i should summon for

[steep goblet]

How?

[pine plover]

level up, skill level, mastery, module, and promotion, can screw your auto

[median fable]

if you're new read roadless camelot in the pins, most comprehensive and upadted "guide" we have currently

[surreal wing]

welcome to arknights

[slender quail]

Okei

[rain night]

did you upgrade all your ops ?

[median fable]

two reasons mainly:

1. fps issue
2. you upgraded someone who made the og strat go awire

[pine plover]

killing enemies to fast causing the killgate time to change
operators getting more expensive due to promotion increase dp cost
skill level and mastery affecting skill cycle

[humble nova]

windscoot is good right? also tmrw is the stream right

[signal dragon]

just redo it and make sure there's no tight timings

[vivid yew]

Anyone know Zima Alt total damage for S3?

[urban sleet]

67k base, +23k for every high tile or whatever the condition was, at 0 def ofc

[pine plover]

like 100k something with mod3

[urban sleet]

pine and flower guy didnt inckude mod ic

[pine plover]

you forgot the splash damage from trait

smh

[urban sleet]

Pine and flower guy, not me

[vivid yew]

She seems like a good bait banner for whatever coming next

[runic cipher]

guys im new to the game, my friend said this game have monster hunter character how do i get them?

does it have shagaru magala?

[urban sleet]

We do have a 'teased' collab incoming but no details for that
And since you are new refer to beginner guide in pins (roadless camelot section)

[quick jolt]

you cant get them at the moment. there was a past monster hunter collab, but collab units will almost never come back. theres only been 1 collab rerun in the games history. a future monster hunter collab was announced, but date and details are unknown. theres a possibility they will rerun the original collab after it but its just a possibility and not confirmed

[modern ivy]

what event does the lone trail ui and background drop in? or will it be different for en?

[distant wolf]

is there a reward at the 22 or this is it?

[quick jolt]

we responded to a troll

[pine plover]

the teased monster for MHRise collab was apex zinogre iirc

[final garnet]

bruhhh

[quick jolt]

no theres no reward at 22

[urban sleet]

If you just want rewards you can stop after getting that

[pine plover]

when slacking on main story finally bite your ass

[final garnet]

< day 1 player btw

[safe tundra]

wtf shion fell off?

[urban sleet]

Iirc that needs s9-3, ch 9 is open after ch 3

[pine plover]

truly slack maxxing

[runic cipher]

so they're limited monster hunter character what are them? pls be langiacrus

[pine plover]

wtf you mean, i clear alls stages main story already

[pine plover]

we will need to put you down grandpa

[runic cipher]

yea just search it up, just rathalos and kirin, did this game fight the monster or just get character only

[final garnet]

heard theres an upcoming qol update for arknights visual novel so the reading experience is better

which is why i plan to continue to slackmaxxing until then

rip

[safe tundra]

we fought rathalos as final boss

[lunar apex]

isnt it only in CN ?

[pine plover]

but rathalos then died because originium infection instead

[final garnet]

are they not gonna bring it to global??

[pine plover]

*upcoming, global will have it in 6 months anyway

[lunar apex]

idk the whole update but if there is anything they just help u change the font size

[safe tundra]

remind me how fat rathalos tile was? because i remember guides use s2 instead of s3 yato for whatever the fuck reason

[pine plover]

1 tile mobile boss as usual

[runic cipher]

originium infection? isn't that the yellow stone thing?

[safe tundra]

oh

[final garnet]

arent you supposed to cheese him with bombs or shit

[brazen gulch]

what is the qol that's being talked about?

[runic cipher]

yea to put him down while flying then cut his tail

[pine plover]

people just cut its tail and nuke it

[safe tundra]

story reading experience, which CN just recently got

[final garnet]

i have 0 memory of the event

[brazen gulch]

i heard that much, what exactly is being improved? i saw a message about variable font size, is that it?

[safe tundra]

:idk:

[pine plover]

from the teaser, looks like MH Rise collab wont feature the flagship monster but Apex instead

[final garnet]

that sounds good

im pretty sure i lose diopters reading patriot hellagur story when it first released

[pine plover]

otherwise no reason they put zinogre silhouette

[rustic pecan]

Is there any cutscenes for ex levels in under tides?

[wanton meadow]

How replaceable is ela for max risk cc level content

[rustic pecan]

Cause I’m starting to go insane beating these levels

[pine plover]

no cutscenes for any side story EX and S stages afaik

[lapis tide]

there was one in a walk in the dust, not sure if its still there

[rustic pecan]

No? Grani the knight treasure has cutscenes

[lapis tide]

its mostly just the year 1 events though, anything newer have none

[vital kelp]

depends since cc varies a lot

[pine plover]

they dont do it anymore for later side story tbh

[rustic pecan]

Oh kk then

[pine plover]

you meant anything newer?

[lapis tide]

brainfart moment

[pine plover]

help became veteran nursing house

[wanton meadow]

Sorry but idk how to interpret that if it helps narrow it down, I'm not looking to low op stuff

[rocky pilot]

I only actually played this game for like 4 months in total I am just here because I am bored

[wanton meadow]

At least historically how often has she been necessary or optimal

Just a ballpark is fine, i don't need exact numbers and just a general picture

[vital kelp]

a op's usage in cc varies a lot depending on which cc it is
some cc require some op like crazy(e.g. ceobe in some cc) while others are mostly support and have replacement(e.g. muelseyes)

i guess ela fits in the later half?

theres only been so many cc since shes been out

[pine plover]

speaking of trapmaster, does wang even bother with trap deployment limit?

[vital kelp]

id say shes irreplacable when she is needed, the fragile is very accessible and she can add a bit of dmg herself

however stuff like tileban cucks her up a lot

[abstract mauve]

he has 2 seperate deployment limits iirc. 1 for his talent and one for him or smthn

[pine plover]

like dorothy can place up to 10 traps, 13 with modX

[abstract mauve]

anyway wang known fraud. traps cant activate if only 1 is placed in a spot
power of friendship ahh traps

[barren niche]

Wasn't ark no nights supposed to end today?

[pine plover]

wang still known weiqi failure

[rocky pilot]

One more day

[wanton meadow]

Shoot i haven't finished ark ni nights

[rocky pilot]

It ends at exactly 168 hours it has only been 144 hours

[pine plover]

server time is UTC -7, and 1 day remaining usually is 1 day + the remaining hours unlisted

[barren niche]

where does it say that?
i couldn't find a timer for the love of god

[rocky pilot]

It ends at exactly one week to begin with

And it has only been 6 days in total

[slim tusk]

she has been like on what? 2 max risk cc?
some is tied record,1 optimal so you need to like 4 sui to replace her and suzu

[keen scarab]

Arknights wiki gg have timer for events, just scroll down there

[rocky pilot]

Also since zima alt is released now in cn how well is her kit performing like

[barren niche]

I thank everyone for your assistance

[barren niche]

We got Zima alt now?????

[rocky pilot]

Did you not check the trailers

[barren niche]

I barely keep up with Arknights news nowdays

[odd sky]

just youtube it 🥱

[rocky pilot]

Wisadel blast a YouTube logo to this person's face

[vital kelp]

meh

[median fable]

if it's needed it's hard to replace
key words "if it's needed"

[surreal sphinx]

Is the Kernel headhunting some sort of standard banner? Is that the only place you can use the blue tickets on?

[signal dragon]

yes, but never use yellow permits or orundum there

[vital kelp]

yes

[signal dragon]

kernel is full of outdated ops

[frosty flame]

I take it surtr isnt worth anything nowadays?

[signal dragon]

she's not, use certs for pulls instead

[quick jolt]

shes not unuseable but shes far from meta and definitely not worth certs

[rocky pilot]

Only cert her if you really like the ice cream queen

[indigo moat]

Can someone help me decide who to build first? My main team is alr pretty balanced so idk who to build. Any suggestions?

[quick prawn]

do we know who's gonna be the next shoperator?

[ancient current]

we do not

[neon siren]

Ulpianus is right there my man

[quick prawn]

is jessica good or I better save my certs?

[ancient current]

absolutely save your certs

[neon siren]

Save

[ancient current]

she's a giga fraud

[indigo moat]

Oh okay, tbh it's been a while so idk the metas anymore

[neon siren]

Ahh no prob

[vital kelp]

hi rechord

[left tulip]

is it worth pulling in kernel cuz of surtr

[ancient current]

absolutely not

[pine plover]

they are baiting global player 6 months in advance with new module and new L2D skin

[bright dawn]

Is specter gonna be 200 spark anytime soon?
Or shes still at 300 in CN too?

[neon siren]

Is the banner after zima a limited?

[pine plover]

CN 7th anniversary

[ancient current]

if no other banner comes inbetween yes

[neon siren]

So zima is a bait banner too huh

[neon siren]

Ooo damn

[pine plover]

and there will be Tragodia rerun after cn anniversary

[pearl zinc]

Nvm...I thought skadi...

[odd sky]

well we don't know if it's bait yet, who knows if 7th anny is good

[shrewd peak]

There aren't many good banners between right now and this one so it should be fine even if it is a bait banner

[ebon plaza]

hey guys here's my current squad and krooster, any pressing issues or can i start saving for pram2

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

[neon siren]

Have there been any limited banner that have been skipped in the past?

[shrewd peak]

A lot

[abstract mauve]

up until recently limited banners werent particularly good

[shrewd peak]

Spalter Irene following into Mumu Hool for example were pretty mediocre anniversary banner

After that they locked in

[pine plover]

Yu Blaze2

[odd sky]

i skipped pepe, but i got tuta on free pulls i think

[shrewd peak]

Thats cny and yu is a decent operator

[candid badger]

anniv, not cny ...

[neon siren]

Wow

[pine plover]

well, CNY is global half anniversary

[neon siren]

Yu? Isn't he good?

[robust thistle]

the normal perspective was limiteds = mid

[abstract mauve]

i mean guy asked about just limited banners in general

[neon siren]

Oh damn alr

[robust thistle]

it wasnt until texalt that limiteds was considered good

[neon siren]

Ahh alr, now limiteds have been very good right

[pine plover]

in which part he said anniv only tbh

[robust thistle]

so far theyre varying levels of at least good-usable

[neon siren]

Have all the limiteds after wisadel been good?

[pearl zinc]

Lappland? Exu?

[neon siren]

Oh damn, I didn't know the order mb

[pearl zinc]

But still couldn't beat wis rho...

[neon siren]

Oh

[white kraken]

Not pepe

[urban bolt]

Do they not care about the strategy side anymore? Seeing how Wang is so overpowered

[pine plover]

they can just make event mechanic or CC/VB that straight up counter his kits

[neon siren]

I mean, they might be setting us up for a HUGE learning curve and a difficulty spike in gen content maybe?
-# or maybe just they don't care like u said

[brazen gulch]

more of a "gotta give them a broken toy every once in a while" imho

[neon siren]

But everything so far has been broken tho

[abstract mauve]

accessibility option and a new toy for high end. if you dont wanna use a unit you dont use them
stage difficulty hasnt increased much in the past few years that the only real challenges are high diff IS and CCs

[formal shadow]

yes. i am in hg hq and they are implementing a check whether you are associated with mensa and have an iq of over 130 or not. if you don't you get locked out of AK forever

[shrewd peak]

People have been saying this since surtr was released

[slender temple]

Mantra isn't

[shrewd peak]

If you want difficulty just don't use the broken units, it's a casual game

[neon siren]

I ain't even gonna lie, idk what mensa is.

And that would tank player base 😭

[neon siren]

Talking about limited banner only

[brazen gulch]

dunno, strong yeah, broken not really. last one i can recall that'd i call broken is haruka in the healing department and even there she has competitors

[slender temple]

If you wanna struggle so bad just use max 4* team comp or something, let the others have their fun

[pine plover]

also, unlike other trapmaster, wang's traps are sourced damage, anything that deals reflect damage just counter him

[neon siren]

And that was after exu2, which was after lappland alter and wisadel, now we have pram2 and sa2, then wang,

[obtuse berry]

hmm I wanna ask what skill does Leizi alter use, I often use 1 and 2 and find s3 quite underwhelming cuz the attack is so slow

[reef sparrow]

you can pretty much do anything in the game, be it a nicheknights or casually spawn camping every enemies, as long as you're having fun

[vivid yew]

Dies to spike chest

[urban bolt]

Yh I suppose

[pine plover]

they made wang's traps sourced so they can work with yu s3

[median fable]

all three are used depending on contexts, on general s2 is the one more used overall speaking

[neon siren]

Damn same weakness

[obtuse berry]

what is the use for s3

[pearl zinc]

Wang traps are break the trapmaster rule

[pine plover]

when map layout is limiting her s2

[slender temple]

Apparently S3 deals the most total damage in the right circumstances, you just have to use her lightning ball's bounce to its full extent

[reef sparrow]

most broken ops literally break their subclass rules

[brazen gulch]

"then wang" forgetting about a couple of banners in between there mate. the broken things always leave a mark in memory while everything else gets drowned out. i'm not gonna argue about the past since i got back pretty recently but i see all kinds of ops in the future (remember that 6*s are also not the only characters in the game)

[vivid yew]

Map edge count as high tile for Zima?

[median fable]

in is6 for example, even if only for being multihit

[pearl zinc]

You can put his trap right below enemy

[median fable]

and it deals more dmg depending on map layout

[neon siren]

Uhm, I was talking about only limiteds, the Convo started with only limited banner, never was talking about the standard ones to begin with.

[pine plover]

anything that slightly elevated also somehow counts as high-ground

[spare jetty]

spaghetti codes

[slender temple]

It just happens that banner between are also freaking mid, if there's anyone that stands out they'd definitely be in the topic

[obtuse berry]

I have both Mlynar and Leizi but I feel like Mlynar is easier to use (i guess)

[pine plover]

nah, all other talent and skills that interact with high ground since Savage works like this tbh

[cinder pulsar]

for icebreaker games, does the disable team only work for stun/cold/freeze or does it work for stuff like bind/fear/frighten(degenbrecher status) etc?

[slim tusk]

mlynar is pretty vanilla so kinda

[humble nova]

y-yall think I can reach max tier with 120 pulls?

[pine plover]

some old side story stages just dont have it

[slender temple]

Definitely not, you need like 200 more cert

[spare jetty]

sometimes the events doesn't have it

[reef sparrow]

I mean just pray that the limited banner is within this month

[shrewd peak]

Mathematically impossible

Maybe if you have other sources to supplement it

[patent heron]

Oh, so it wasn't implemented across the whole game? Damn, okay

[odd sky]

💳

[slender temple]

Never buy pulls unless you can buy out anyway (258 gcert)

[obtuse berry]

and shall I all in 300 pulls for Wisadel on SA banner

[reef sparrow]

I'm more concerned about you having 52 green certs tho

[opaque remnant]

Please don’t spark-

[shrewd peak]

Not advised

If you have enough pulls for spark save for future units

[neon siren]

Spark train 🚃

[spare jetty]

not recommended for f2p

[obtuse berry]

im not f2p, I am low spender

[spare jetty]

unless everything behind it til wang is skippable then go ahead

[vivid yew]

Still a bad idea

[wanton meadow]

Let's just say if you can't whale for the 300 pulls entirely, it's probably not recommended

[slender temple]

300 pulls can theorically last for like 2 different limited banner, don't waste it for a single unit

[winter crystal]

You need to spend more then a small amount here and there to ignore the sparking rule

[obtuse berry]

alright then I shall put it in the selection banner and get Ulpi and Trago I guess 🤔

[humble nova]

have u ever heard of the sui siblings

[spare jetty]

it can change

[pine plover]

be like JP players, spark for max pot

[neon siren]

[obtuse berry]

of course yeah

[rain night]

they are so rich

[humble nova]

save some for wangs banner (wang, shu, yu, chen3)

[obtuse berry]

I cant

[wanton meadow]

If you wanna spark limited banner and not suffer from missing units, be prepared to spend something like 500 dollars per limited banner

[neon siren]

Holy shit.

[obtuse berry]

isnt Shu and Yu also in the spark pool, I mean second rate up

[true field]

hi is there a tips or trick for beginners? it might sound suspicious for me to ask this but i used to play the game and have no idea about whats going on i dont wanna make mistakes that i will regret later on

[humble nova]

both yes

[rain night]

pins

[humble nova]

im personally sparking, but it doesnt mean u should too. Theres just a lot of banners this year keke

PLEASE DONT PRAY ON MY DOWN FALL I NEED THIS

[opaque remnant]

You can read the roadless Camelot on pins, we have a beginner guide

[neon siren]

[brazen gulch]

tldr; limited banners have had a tendency to introduce "broken" characters. so what?

i'm not gonna lie i just don't see the problem. how are limited ops being "broken" a bad thing? or any ops being broken? i understand the powercreep concerns but it's been 6 years and it's been proven time and time again that you can beat the vast majority of content with widely available units, and i don't see why now would be the time for concern of all times

[wanton meadow]

It's around 100 bucks in OP for 60 pulls, plus minus the packs that appear and monthly headhunting packs but that's not a large majority

[rain night]

who you sparking ?

[wanton meadow]

So you want to be prepared to spend 500 bucks if you wanna spark

[humble nova]

shu (if pulled during the sparking process, I may stop there unless im near sparking, ima get Yu if shu is achieved or if for some reason I didnt get chen3/wang)

[winter crystal]

Ok….not….not that much but like 100 -200 depending on how well you plan your pulls and if you pulled on any standard banner before the limited that number will increase. Thats also just to spark on every limited which even I don’t do

[neon siren]

Dude, read the chat, I never had anything against it, I asked a question and some people spiraled it.

-# what beef do you have with me 😭 the topic ended a few min ago

[slender temple]

If you're not confident to spank without asking here then don't. Tbh you don't even know what you're doing

[humble nova]

also Im praying for exodia

[shadow bay]

spanking... so lewd

[neon siren]

[brazen gulch]

"mid" is a very broad and relative term. if all you care about is power then if anything shouldn't it be good for you that you have 4ish months every time to prepare pulls for the next toy

[rain night]

good luck dude

[humble nova]

tyty 🙏

[brazen gulch]

the chat is fast and i've just been thinking about how to put my thoughts on paper, sorry

[wanton meadow]

I'm saying it's the mindset you want to be prepared for if you wanna spark limited, and if you can't afford that you should not plan to spark limiteds

[neon siren]

Nah it's alr, I was half convinced I said sm wrong lmao

[winter crystal]

Yes, for instance the 100 dollar ori purchase in the shop only gets you like 75 pulls

And that’s assuming you get the bonus first time purchase

[obtuse berry]

Im lacking good Sniper and Caster on my account. Currently Im carrying with Hoshi2 and thorns and Mlynar so I want to make a change i guess (Pramanix is broken ofc but how about sniper)

[wanton meadow]

I'm pretty sure it's closer to 60 pulls on my end but it might be cos my currency is weaker

[south sentinel]

who should i pick? i’m new to the game

i already have saria and exusiai

[raven ermine]

silverash, also check pins

[slender temple]

Idk what's your point but this channel give advice base on practical uses and power level so yeah it do be like that, but if you love your waifu so bad no one can actually teleport to you and stop you from pulling

[south sentinel]

thank you

[reef sparrow]

tbh you don't see wis as a sniper generally unless class restrictions she's just a nuke button

[neon siren]

[wanton meadow]

And yea i didn't count the 1st time bonus cos that's only once a year

[pine plover]

there is mid (average) and mid (derogatory)

[quick jolt]

the latter should just be referred to as bad

[neon siren]

Dw abt classes, if your team clears content then it's a working teams u will get them eventually anyways

[molten scroll]

wis is just anti everything

[brazen gulch]

that's exactly what i meant yeah. broken limiteds aren't a problem because the game isn't designed around them, so there's no incentive to pull specifically on them beyond your own free will ("do i like this visual design? do i like this power? do i like this gameplay?" etc)

the original convo began because of a misunderstanding on my end btw

[winter crystal]

130+130 ori so 260/35 per 10 pull = 7.4 or 74 pulls for 100 bucks

[pine plover]

caster job as ranged arts damage dealer are overtaken by non-caster operators

[neon siren]

Unless you have some challenge modes which offer dp cost difference with classes

[molten scroll]

when the best heaeler isnt a healer type

[slender temple]

Still don't know what's the point here, so you're saying we shouldn't recommend everyone to pull limited even if they're good?

[drifting gate]

Hello what do you advise me to take ? Plss

[wanton meadow]

Yea i used 130+55 cos if they're sparking once i assume they will want to spark on the other limited banners too (cos whale and gamba are inseparable)

[slender temple]

Top op yolo tbh

[brazen gulch]

i am not. recommending to pull for powerful things is the only thing this channel can do because everything else is subjective

[humble nova]

ouchhhh, those are some good tags (for non-top ops) robots robots robots

[drifting gate]

Ok thx

🥲

[pine plover]

real whale would spark for max pot and not just spark to get the units

[rain night]

https://www.krooster.com/u/cuff13
i wonder what kinda char i am missing on my acc

[molten scroll]

what even happens if u top op+elemental/robot

[slender temple]

Yeah Top op + Robot guarantee you Optimus Prime

[humble nova]

real

[rain night]

probably a stunner or smth

[reef sparrow]

how about you do some masteries yah

[raven ermine]

This is not really how you should consider things
You don't aim for operators filling a "gap" in your account
You just aim for upcoming good units

[rain night]

doing those

[molten scroll]

do top op survival and pray for mudrock/mountain trust

[wanton meadow]

And run 342 base while refreshing stamina for xp

[humble nova]

err isnt it both, cuz i'd be damn'd if I lack one role for arts dps

[slender temple]

They... They're not even that good

[rain night]

👍

[pine plover]

they could just buy lmd and exp from shop pack

[raven ermine]

And what, you'd pull for eyja instead of aiming for wang ?

[slender temple]

But tbh, getting top op is kinda whatever nowadays. Don't get too excite about it cuz you're not getting anyone that's a carry

[drifting gate]

Euuu

[reef sparrow]

new unit to bench

[formal shadow]

surely with 2ima there will be a parade of ussg alters to buff her

[drifting gate]

😭

[molten scroll]

u top op to get base slaves trust

[wanton meadow]

If they're caught up then yes, if not and they want to catch up then it's not enough

[odd sky]

#salt-mines

[pine plover]

no no no, it's weekly pack

[wanton meadow]

O-oh

[raven ermine]

ok, eunectes
and uh, who exactly ?

[wanton meadow]

All 3 refresh per week? Like 5 bucks one?

[slender temple]

Top op = free g cert, that's it

[odd sky]

weedy

[raven ermine]

Oh yeah weedy

[pine plover]

passenger

[raven ermine]

Nah fck passenger we have sneg

[slender temple]

Wait do we get 20 free pulls from Sash2 event like usual limited

[wanton meadow]

Passenger is replaced by sneg now

[odd sky]

24

[abstract mauve]

wtf passenger no longer base slave?

[pine plover]

usual limited is 24

[rain night]

i think 10 from the get go
and the rest 14 as free one pull each day.

[odd sky]

collab is technically not limited

[frosty flame]

We get free pulls on limited banners?

[molten scroll]

whats even the best op u could get from top op. surtr?

[spare jetty]

weedy ange

[frosty flame]

There was a list in pins

[pine plover]

angelina isnt even recruitable

[molten scroll]

its either surtr or a base slave afaik

[spare jetty]

oh um

[pine plover]

eyjafjalla isnt even recruitable also

[raven ermine]

sneg is a 30% for automation
Passenger is 25% with 3pp count

[spare jetty]

amnesia
pls understand

[odd sky]

oh yea idk if someone said this already
e1 frostleaf conviction roberta shira, basically /baseskills in #bot-spam

[obtuse berry]

Saria 🤔

[molten scroll]

how many free pulls did we get from the hoshi 2 banner?

[raven ermine]

The same

[spare jetty]

24

[pine plover]

it's +5% per power plant, where is the extra 10% came from?

[rain night]

ah i am already working on base slaves.

[raven ermine]

with eun in cc you have +2
With greyy2 and dead lancet you have +1
For a 252 setup that's 5 pp count total, so 25%

[wanton meadow]

Eunectes in cc i guess

[pine plover]

you said with 3 pp

[wanton meadow]

Basically passenger is dedge, long live sneg

[raven ermine]

yeah with 3pp count, it wasn't worded the best mb

[molten scroll]

pp?

[wanton meadow]

Powerplant

[winter crystal]

The bigger problem is when you want to spark a second time. purchase of Ori is doubled for your first time so the second purchase of $100 Ori will only get you half of 75 pulls. So what whales do in the game is they buy the 20 pull $25 monthly pack every single month in the shop

[pine plover]

why dont just put sneg, pass, and weed in same factory anyway?

[hexed adder]

With 3 pp base its same 162%

[raven ermine]

You can, but pure is 40% and isn't affected by the cancel% from auto ops

[glass nexus]

Who has 3 pp???

[winter crystal]

The $25 for 20 pulls monthly is also mathematically better value than $100 ori purchase even if it’s doubled for your first purchase but you can only buy 20 pulls once a month

[hexed adder]

Oh wait 160% but yea same on 3pp 🍿

If 252, snegu just preferred ig

[raven ermine]

I apologize for the shortcut, what i meant was
252 with greyy2 and dead lancet
Which is 3pp count
Eun in cc would be +2, but that's kind of a given, the only "variant" is dead lancet or not

[pine plover]

but what if 5 trading post purestream

[raven ermine]

What are you doing with all those

[hexed adder]

Looks like someone who want Guinness

[slate ridge]

making money ofc

[spare jetty]

unbricking their 4k+ gold bar stockpile

[pine plover]

what is zima2 base skill btw?

[raven ermine]

Just drop a gold fac for exp 🥹
It won't even last that long

[glass nexus]

Is exusai better than exusai alt

[spare jetty]

[glass nexus]

How to get exusai alt

[spare jetty]

sparking/offrating on limited banners

[somber scaffold]

do we know when is silverash alter banner ?

[spare jetty]

which is not recommended for f2p

[pine plover]

now that i looked at it, USSG base skills are very spread out huh

[wide knot]

Thought I could finally e2 logos but imagine my surprise when I saw this

[wanton meadow]

Guess what I'm doing 🙂

[gentle dove]

Use your drones 😢

[wide knot]

After failing so many times in s9-2 this is what I get

[raven ermine]

Yeah, honestly looks mid-ish

[wide knot]

Dont have anything to use them for

[frosty flame]

The next SAlter banner is going to have all celebration limiteds as off rates?

[pine plover]

they are bunch of kids trying to find their calling

[wanton meadow]

Also it's not exactly half, cos it's 130+55 instead of 130+130

[wide knot]

I've built pretty much everything

[gentle dove]

Tp or base bro

[hexed adder]

Failed at tutorial

[wide knot]

Ah can you elaborate

[odd sky]

you can tho scroll down

[spare jetty]

they're free

[gentle dove]

You can spend drones in the trading post or factories to accelerate gold → lmd exchange or gold production

[near hollow]

is farming orundom actually goated?

[slender temple]

You can use drone to speed up TP, Fac

[spare jetty]

theres some in IS and RA

[wide knot]

Oh thanks didn't know that

[raven ermine]

now show 3 days average

[pine plover]

at least zima became RI ursus branch leader
that like 2nd named branch leader after tulip

[wide knot]

Closed the game sont wanna open it again sorry

[near hollow]

image is from twitter im contemplating switching though

[raven ermine]

Image is bs propaganda

[wanton meadow]

Don't, look at how he's bricking everything else

[near hollow]

500 a day sounds devious

[wanton meadow]

No exp, that lmd is also fake cos he's not making enough gold bars

[gentle dove]

How much lmd does orundum consume though
For that 500 batch for example

[spare jetty]

oro farming when u thinked what it will do to ur acc

[vital kelp]

960k lmd per 1200 rock

[odd sky]

see AO farming guide in #r-i-i-c pins

[hexed adder]

Dude really think its 500 per day :icant:

[pine plover]

500 cost 80k to make

[raven ermine]

orundum farming :
96k LMD for 120 rocks

1 shard = 1600 LMD + 2 rocks (60min)
1 rock = 4.82 sanity

2 shards per order (120min) = 20 originium
300 orders = *10 pull

20 originium = 3200 LMD + 4 rocks(19.28 sanity)
10 pulls = 960k LMD + 1200 rocks (5784 sanity =24d)
IE, stay away unless you know what you're doing

[vital kelp]

500 orundumb is 50 shard which is 100 rock, so that’s like 80k lmd?

[near hollow]

i mean i already have a built squad... so

[gentle dove]

Thanks, yeah

[wanton meadow]

Ok that's fine, time to stop building future units too

[spare jetty]

25 shard

[distant dawn]

Can I use rossi and lavatein in the same team?

[vital kelp]

When I was full on trading post with shard I get 300 orun a day but that’s only cuz I got shards piled up

[pine plover]

you need 2 shard for 1 trade of 20

[near hollow]

so 9.6m for 100 pulls? doesnt sound that bad

[gloomy fossil]

Raidan is a good unit yes?

[spare jetty]

wrong server
its no

[raven ermine]

The issue there is that, this riic report means nothing without 3 days average
That's an entire past day of collection missed, you don't reach those numbers without screwing something up or droning for sanity

[vital kelp]

One shard is 10 orun dude

[gloomy fossil]

We’re the better arknights server

[spare jetty]

the

[wanton meadow]

How would you get the lmd, youre not producing gold bars

[vital kelp]

The?

[pine plover]

1 trade is 2 shard bro

[silent pendant]

yes very

[near hollow]

u are producing some arent u

[spare jetty]

misremembered

[broken stratus]

Guys,should i keep saving up for the next limited banner,or try to gamble?

[distant dawn]

Looks like im lost, i apologize folks

[winter crystal]

[wanton meadow]

Bro that's 17k lmd worth of gold bars per day

[vital kelp]

How can u gamble when ur broke

[pine plover]

how you gonna produce 96k lmd a day

[slender temple]

Save, you're broke

[broken stratus]

K

[raven ermine]

That's a bit of a reductive statement
You need to consider the sanity spent in 1-7
The opportunity cost of exp not produced, and the fact that basically 70-80% of all your lmd prod is going to oru

[near hollow]

so the strat is to produce lmd for a month -> switch to orundom and back?

[spare jetty]

[vital kelp]

Man I kinda wanna see blocked messages but I remember I only block people in AKO for very good reasons

[winter crystal]

Ah interesting yeah you want to avoid that purchase as much as possible it’s only there if you didn’t plan well for the event

[gloomy fossil]

Also does silence or ptil have an alter?

[raven ermine]

#help message

[frosty flame]

Silence has alter

[reef sparrow]

discord needs a better QoL for that tbh

[vital kelp]

Silencealt yes

[pine plover]

silence and it's not even a good one

[slender temple]

Just don't do orundumb farm please, everyone and their mother here have warned you

[spare jetty]

silence yes but her alt r ass

[frosty flame]

Its also welfare

[pine plover]

just farm irl instead

[raven ermine]

I mean i'm farming oru
But might as well do it correctly

[gloomy fossil]

Aw

[near hollow]

4.9b orundum tho

[vital kelp]

They can do what they want tbf, we got a number of people here doing orundumb farming, it’s fine as long as u know what ur doing

[gloomy fossil]

Where do i get it?
Also where do i get blue poison? I find her really good

[vital kelp]

Lone star event

Blue poison is mid and u get her from recruit

[winter crystal]

“As of March 2021”

[pine plover]

and they also spent money weekly to buy LMD

[slender temple]

And what does that have to do with the conversation at all

[reef sparrow]

get a job and buy monthly card

[frosty flame]

Is that even efficient at all assuming fixed lmd to orundum conversion

[near hollow]

thats a lot of orundum hg doesnt want you to know about

[wanton meadow]

Over 6 years and those players probably spend like at least 300-500 dollars a month on the game so they can afford to brick their base income

[raven ermine]

Sure, just take the data from 5 years of collective production from a few millions players, that should do the trick

[winter crystal]

Work a minimum wage job for a day and buy monthly for like 6 months

[spare jetty]

ancient data

[near hollow]

idk im looking at the ao farming doc yall linked

i blame them for the old data

[pine plover]

[vital kelp]

I don’t even need to know who it is to know why I blocked them atp

[gloomy fossil]

Oh how efficiently can i farm pulls after finishing episode 3?

[raven ermine]

Did you block me grub 🥹

[vital kelp]

No I love u

[potent tartan]

Does that number matter if you dont know the sample size of people who do it and contributed to the number

[spare jetty]

so u instinctively blocked them

[slender temple]

Do annihilation and dailies

[vital kelp]

No I blocked them before and seeing everyone replying to blocked message just tells me I did the right thing by blocking baiters

[spare jetty]

lol
that sounds peaceful

[gloomy fossil]

worth grinding IS6 on the side?
Still got no idea wtf i’m doing in there but it got me to E1 on raidan

[vital kelp]

It really is

[gloomy fossil]

Oh :(

[reef sparrow]

but discord showing there's a blocked message in ur screen is

[spare jetty]

low cortisol chatting

[winter crystal]

I have yet to block anyone but I’ve been blocked

[vital kelp]

help has enuff ragebaiter and best we can do is ignore

[vital kelp]

too bad u didn’t block puffy

[raven ermine]

Peace isn't an option
We don't compromise, we don't settle

[winter crystal]

#help message no puffy was 🍿

[gloomy fossil]

Which episodes should i do after ep 3? Since i can start all of the acts now
Should i just do in order for story sake?

[crimson gull]

Ehhh what happened here?

[vital kelp]

Ok fair I didn’t block puffy either it was funny seeing everyone else anger over it and she just pretend to listen and come right back with new questions showing that she didn’t

[spare jetty]

nothing

[spare jetty]

i only block sb when i got attacked by that sb

[vital kelp]

Keep doing story til u can’t
Do Invitation to Wine and Dossoles Holidays side stories for good operators

When there isn’t an event story is a good place to spend sanity

Other side story can be ur origium reserve til u need them

[spare jetty]

when maxed out just 1-7

[abstract mauve]

hi chat are the new units good?

[raven ermine]

Methink zima looks decent

[vital kelp]

I’d say zimaalt is kinda mid, kinda like degen id say? Similar cooldown but a bit more dmg

[rocky pilot]

Afk skill and a aoe bonk cannot complain too much
For me at least

[abstract mauve]

isnt she like double her damage with way better dph?

[crimson gull]

I heard she's upgraded Pepe

[pine plover]

degen has higher downtime

[raven ermine]

Well that's a given, pepe is kinda homeless

[bold mist]

When do y'all think the lone trail UI will drop?

[vital kelp]

No hit air no invul frame and really dependent on tiles tho

She does do more dmg ye

[abstract mauve]

acc what are the exact zima s3 numbers

[bold mist]

She still has a place in my heart ❤️

[vital kelp]

Like 67k? Someone in cn lounge said idk

[raven ermine]

I mean 67k on a 27 cycle is kinda nice

[abstract mauve]

ye that's what im saying

[vital kelp]

Bad range if she’s not next to ranged tile tho

[pine plover]

does that even include damage from trait splash?

[signal dragon]

can we censor that number or round it up or something

[vital kelp]

Lemme check if bloodywolf or sungan has posted

[pine plover]

since talent 1 with mod3 boost trait damage to 90% of ATK

[vital kelp]

Apparently 67k with 23k extra for single high tile

He says super big cup low

Good afk with s2, but otherwise mid/decent

[abstract mauve]

[vital kelp]

I can see the range being really awkward tbf

[opaque remnant]

anyways, what's the review for the new CN ops

[pine plover]

alot part of the map actually counts as high ground tbh

[wooden bay]

Lemuen best all rounder skill?

[livid crest]

Between cuora and bubble, which one has the higher def and hp?

[winter crystal]

Sakiko is upgraded thorns but that doesn’t tell you the massive difference between them

[wide knot]

can anyone tell me what command to use when I want to know which mat to farm

[vital kelp]

Come back in 24 hours

[pine plover]

krooster also has planner for raising operators

[raven ermine]

I mean you might not get the full value out of the skill, but the fact that she hit without a target means the range is actually not that much of an issue

[winter crystal]

Incoming YouTube video “Zima alt vs all story bosses”

[lament forge]

we get 10 free pull + daily pull on silver ash alt banner right? or is it 20

[abstract mauve]

the welfare is half decent and that's in welfare only terms. shit otherwise

[raven ermine]

She's cute, she gets a pass

[gentle dove]

Most important metric

[pine plover]

ukusik is good for dealing with the event mechanic mostly

[vital kelp]

I think she’s gonna have the same problem with degen, being even tho good cycle the dmg isn’t enuff to be that impactful and off skill just sucks

[abstract mauve]

i still need to get masteries for s1 to see if it's good or genuine ass. prolly an IS only skill cuz she needs 15% more attack

[opaque remnant]

is this about the 5 star one

[vital kelp]

And isn’t the range still gonna suck even if u can hit nothing?

[raven ermine]

My issue with zima is that the bind is 2s on s3
But 1.8 atk interval
So you end up losing a full second of bind, which is 10% of the entire duration

[pine plover]

well, zima2 gives +18% ATK and DEF when her skill is active

[abstract mauve]

[versed agate]

My time has come…..
Cuora has a wee bit lower HP growth but Def difference is too much between the two

[vital kelp]

Also, a small surprise is that her first talent isn’t attack scale, it’s fragile

It’s applied after def

[pine plover]

well, add her talent to it

[warm spire]

Do i need to build the other ave mujica operators or sakiko is already good on her own?

[neon siren]

Kyostin had a stream using them I think. Mostly zima altef

[gentle dove]

Not necessary sakiko is plenty good on her own

[pine plover]

her bandmates are optional

[versed agate]

To compensate, she deals damage
Bubble, I mean.

[winter crystal]

Sakiko is good on her own but if you don’t have a full squad of 6 stars there maybe room for some band members

[opaque remnant]

sakiko is already good, her teammates merely serve as range extensions

[raven ermine]

Well the bind is actually a better alternative than what they did with pepe's stun to keep the enemy in range for the entire duration of the skill
It will at least guarantee that she can hit all 5 hits without having to block anything on targets that aren't bind immune

[vital kelp]

@raven ermine her range is awkward since it’s a small cross for the first two hit, becomes degen range for the next two hit, and bigger in the last hit

So like the first two might miss if using without enemy in range

[versed agate]

Yeah. Cuora has higher def? Lower hp tho.

[chrome epoch]

the ambusher mygo member is really good tho. idk her name

[pine plover]

you can count how many enemies that immune to bind in one hand

[wanton meadow]

Uwogh i swapped to shamteq and my gold bar production is not keeping up

[pine plover]

well, her s2 is self regen

[winter crystal]

Umiri

[raven ermine]

Compared to stun immune, yeah that's kinda big

[stoic needle]

How many operators do I have to place before exu alter skill 2 doesn't target mlynar

[teal elk]

make better gold worker

[abstract mauve]

no

[pine plover]

mlynar has taunt

[vital kelp]

Feel like most of the time unless ur blocking the enemy u can only count the last 3 hitting

And I think the main attack doesn’t pass through walls? Like leizi issue

[versed agate]

I just answered the question…. I didn’t consider skills in

[winter crystal]

You should probably read mylnar talent

[stoic needle]

So he's destined to always be targeted? 😭

[chrome epoch]

just use exu2 on mlynar downtime

[vital kelp]

Stun will help if the enemy is hitting u, bind however wouldn’t

Feel like she might have survivability issues

[pine plover]

raw stats isnt everything to look at when it comes to operators comparison, since skill often fill the gaps

[wanton meadow]

I don't have them, and even though i spend I'm not gonna be stupid about it and just pull every banner

[opaque remnant]

just use exu skill on mlynar when he's not attacking

[vital kelp]

What mygo, there’s no mygo member

[versed agate]

The question was comparing who had higher def and hp. 💀

it wasnt cuora vs bubble

[raven ermine]

Yeah but the issue with pepe was that if you wait for an enemy to enter the range, it's kinda cooked already except on some specific enemies that can be attack canceled with the stun
With zima you can wait for them to be in front, click the skill and you'll get the full skill out before they can move again

[pine plover]

yeah, and skills and talent and module fill in the stats gap

[winter crystal]

You can also place your exu next to your teammates mylnar in ice breakers and use your S2 when they use Mylnar skills

[stoic needle]

I thought it only made him more likely to be targeted by enemies💀

[versed agate]

I think youre missing the point… ok then👍

[pine plover]

base stats can only goes so far

[vital kelp]

Yeah her range is better than Pepe for sure

[raven ermine]

That's because the in game description isn't clear
It's +1 taunt level, applies to basically everything, including your ops

[winter crystal]

Exu2 steals from an op with the highest aggro which is usually the last deployed but mylnar talent overrides that

[livid crest]

Was done preparing dinner, thank you for the reply.

[cursive maple]

is zima alter good?

[vital kelp]

Mid/decent

[slim tusk]

there is no overriding

[abstract mauve]

uhhh seems pretty decent

[stoic needle]

Dang, I thought that I could just place like 3 other operators in exu skill range😞

[cursive maple]

another skip it is then hmm

[winter crystal]

Yeah but figured that description was the easiest to understand

[vital kelp]

Better degen but like I don’t see her usage

[abstract mauve]

her usage is in prts 1 cycle videos

[raven ermine]

Looks decent imo
nice cycle, good t.dmg, 9s of bind
The only thing i have a hard time evaluating is how impactful the high tiles aftershock really is

[pine plover]

something something 100k total damage with 27 sp cost

[cursive maple]

so super high dph?

[winter crystal]

If she’s in the right conditions

[raven ermine]

She's an earthshaker so yeah, good dph

[pine plover]

she can goes above 10k+ dph on the 5th hits

[wanton meadow]

S2 is also kinda interesting no? 3.5k hp 3.5k atk 1k def

[vital kelp]

Good afk yeah, like ulpian level

[abstract mauve]

afk skill that's half decent ye

[opaque remnant]

so it's strong against stationary enemies then

[pine plover]

3.3k HP, 4.2k ATK, 1.2 DEF

[cursive maple]

wdym good, anything reaching 10k is among the best

[opaque remnant]

absolute brick

[abstract mauve]

1.2k defense kinda crazy lowkey

[pine plover]

it also binds so everything become stationary

[abstract mauve]

maybe more people will shut the fuck up about hoshi1

[wanton meadow]

Ye exactly it's what caught my eye straight away

[raven ermine]

That's only the 5th hit

[winter crystal]

2k on cuora tho

[cursive maple]

i see

[abstract mauve]

id rather shill cuora over hoshi

[vital kelp]

A part of her dmg is the aftershock which doesn’t have the high dph

Can someone send the one cycle prts stuff im curious

[pine plover]

well, each s3 subsequent hits damage different is like 1k from each other

[opaque remnant]

this is only when her skill is active right

[ancient lake]

Which color is the unowned clue?

[winter crystal]

Otherwise it’s like mid 800s ok it’s 872

[wanton meadow]

It's also around 1.2k offskill iirc

[cursive maple]

faded one

[pine plover]

if you select a clue it will highlight the unowned in orange

[abstract mauve]

nae 1200 when blocked

[wanton meadow]

So yeah basically skilloff cuora levels of tanky

[raven ermine]

Enemies tend to be stationary when they're binded

[ancient lake]

Ooh thanks, first time doing this

[abstract mauve]

yeah that's pretty good

[winter crystal]

Ok….when blocking

[abstract mauve]

we must shill cuora brother

[pine plover]

tank will block when tanking anyway

[calm raptor]

Is trag fine at lvl 1 mod or does he need it at lvl 3

[vital kelp]

I will die on she’s mid/good hill

She’s like a little better than qiubai/viviana/degen but like

[winter crystal]

Yep ranged enemies don’t exist 🥀

[abstract mauve]

so true

[winter crystal]

[vital kelp]

And she’s before lim banner and we have monhon hanging in the air

[pine plover]

shill hoshi2 s1 instead, fast activation using aak

[cursive maple]

what about the other operators in the event? decent too?

[abstract mauve]

last time i saw a ranged physical damage enemy was the bear and he got no diffed by sankta s2

[pine plover]

and tragodia rerun

[raven ermine]

What's the cycle on the chain medic in the end ?

[opaque remnant]

missing out on S3 damage

[winter crystal]

Wait aren’t the mortor enemies ranged physical?

[abstract mauve]

35 sp. 12 second camo duration. the skill itself has no duration

[raven ermine]

Hey it's kinda decent too actually

[pine plover]

the fart is arts dot

[abstract mauve]

the aoe is arts according to wiki
also you meet them before bear

also also the mortars are not elite enemies for some reason

[vital kelp]

Doesn’t sound bad

[abstract mauve]

sounds decent i would say

[pine plover]

there is also chapter 11 fart mortar

[vital kelp]

Well chain medic kinda

[opaque remnant]

this is better than papyrus then right?

[winter crystal]

Wait so these guys do 100% attack as arts splash?

[abstract mauve]

for sure he'd generally be more useful vs a generic healer with no real niche

[hexed adder]

Not that, ch16 mortar

[pine plover]

chapter 16 has new mortar enemies

[solar knot]

Is yu s3 worth using mastry ticket on ?

[abstract mauve]

nothing inherently wrong with a chain medic. they have slightly less healing than ST medic but they bounce

[winter crystal]

Ah I was talking about this bc I have IS brain rot. Was actually so confused

[raven ermine]

Not really, keep it for sa2/pram2, sa2 s2 is expensive and so is pram2 s3

[vital kelp]

They can really improve the bounce logic

But like they have never bothered to fix heal wording issues so

[abstract mauve]

2 allies in range getting healed means they'd be better than even aoe medics inherently but they are more restrictive with placement

[pine plover]

the benefit of chain medic that they can heal from albeit safer distance

[haughty holly]

Dev probs will just say just use monst3r

[abstract mauve]

maybe maybe

[solar knot]

I have enough mats to max out both rn

I was curious about sanity wise which is better

[raven ermine]

Send your options for mastery ticket
Sanity wise pram s3 > sash s2

[solar knot]

Ok

[vital kelp]

Until the chain in between isn’t injured and they sit there doing nothing

[wraith shoal]

is s3 actually better than her s2?

[solar knot]

My rest of mastery are pretty much done only yu s3 left

[abstract mauve]

maybe future mod gives better bounce logic

[vital kelp]

Or they turn around and heals the other direction and the bounce goes the other way

[raven ermine]

Both are used, i reckon s2 will be used more than s3 in general, but i would definitely recommend m6

[haughty holly]

Ah yes mandatory mod surely this won't cause a complain

[vital kelp]

that’s why I have some issue with chain medic it’s just the logic isn’t very good

[pine plover]

just have geek who constantly losing health

[raven ermine]

lemme check yu s3 cost

[winter crystal]

You can mastery his S3 if you want but I wouldn’t use the ticket on him the masteries for pram and Sashalt are very expensive

[vital kelp]

Loses too slow and they heal the other way

[pine plover]

spuria doesnt have self heal

[wraith shoal]

or monster who's constantly healing

[winter crystal]

#off-topic message
these are the final mastery costs for both coming limited ops

[vital kelp]

Wait guys, if we have 2 letter for level naming
That means we will be out of names after like 600 events, what shall we do????

[urban sleet]

You either keep him at lvl 82 mod3 or lvl 88 mod2

[pine plover]

they can just repeat the letter

[urban sleet]

EoS

[wraith shoal]

well if he's lvl88 you might as well max him

[winter crystal]

Add a third letter

[hoary laurel]

Suzu gamba?

[haughty holly]

Three letter names

[vital kelp]

That’s counting repeats

[opaque remnant]

indeed

[pine plover]

IS integrated strategies and IS il siracusano

[vital kelp]

wtf do that another 25 times and we will have 4 letter names

[raven ermine]

Yu s3 is 3.7k sanity
#help message
Those are sash/prama costs

[solar knot]

i have saved all mats

[haughty holly]

That's for the dev to worry about not us

[vital kelp]

IS is a player name, in no official place they call it IS

[hexed adder]

Few event already had same code, simply just add letter

[hoary laurel]

Pretty sure Integrated Strategies has ISW right?

[pine plover]

well the stage name also use three letter

[solar knot]

so pretty much same

[formal shadow]

yeah

[vital kelp]

In a limited amount of years the letters will exceed the maximum text limit of the game engine what will we do then 😭

[winter crystal]

Ok so if you have plenty of mats to spare and there’s no downside to masterying whatever op then do whatever

[haughty holly]

Arknights 2

[hoary laurel]

Won the Suzu gamba.

[raven ermine]

3.7k is above average for mastery costs, so sure, feel free to use it on him if you don't have mats and already prefarmed both

[pine plover]

SSS stages name is repeatedly use LT

[hexed adder]

Its not limited, ur life is limited

[vital kelp]

My son will play arknights whether he wants or not 🔪

[haughty holly]

Ok but fr a mod will come and bonk us

[winter crystal]

The bigger problem is the expensive mats are overlapping between pram and Sashalt, like sinters you need 12 of them bc they want 6 each

[vital kelp]

Nah they on break today I think

[haughty holly]

Let's find out by pinging light

[vital kelp]

Wait I saw rechord earlier

[solar knot]

as you guys suggest i will save ticket for parma s3 for sanity and do yu mastry rn

[vital kelp]

[haughty holly]

Or u could prefarm sash2

[solar knot]

yeah yeah already done'

[haughty holly]

Sash2 s2m3

[solar knot]

both perma and sa2

[vital kelp]

Why do people prefarm?

[winter crystal]

If you literally have enough mats to build all the ops masteries then you’d ideally want to use the ticket on the mats you have the least of or just do whatever

[hexed adder]

Ur name answered it

[vital kelp]

Do u all not have material saved up from previous uprate events or some?

[haughty holly]

No surprisingly

[formal shadow]

do masteryless as self challenge

[solar knot]

ok thanks

[vital kelp]

I didn’t prefarm anything for sakiko

Well not materials anyways

[hexed adder]

Thats still count duh

[haughty holly]

I think my acc is considered old but I still have like 5-10 ops to build

[formal shadow]

you prefarmed orundum

[raven ermine]

Mostly chips
I wouldn't advise farming story stages

[winter crystal]

only 5-10

[haughty holly]

So my mats are constantly dwindling

[solar knot]

to be able to play those characters in their event

[haughty holly]

https://krooster.com/u/pusheen_
Like if u look at this I'm sure u can tell me there's a lot to build 🙂‍↕️

[chrome epoch]

im using the planner on the krooster website, does the craft button in the planner actually craft in game or no??

[vital kelp]

No

[left tulip]

Is there a way to get a notif when sanity fills up or anything like that

[vital kelp]

It adds up any material u don’t have and adds these to materials u need

[haughty holly]

Set a timer

[chrome epoch]

okk i just clicked on it and i think that fucked it up lol

[winter crystal]

E0 mylnar

[opaque remnant]

mlynar e0?

[winter crystal]

You’ve got a funny way of thinking

[haughty holly]

Delayed cuz monster and hoshi masteries

[left tulip]

Fair enough

[formal shadow]

we all have our hopes and dreams

[chrome epoch]

because god forbid people ask stupid questions in help

[raven ermine]

no, you're kinda supposed to click on it
At least for t4/t5 mats, because you want to see how many t3s you need, since that's what you farm

[winter crystal]

[runic willow]

What 4 stars do you think benefit the most from m3?

Ethan myrtle?

[urban sleet]

And hope and dream curio in IS

[haughty holly]

Also if u saw the rest of my roster I don't think there's a scenario where am like "damn I should have built mlynar first"

[winter crystal]

The krooster website says “planner” it’s suppose to help you plan not build them

[runic willow]

Death penalty

[raven ermine]

ethan, indigo mostly

[winter crystal]

Also as a IS nut seeing no masteries on monster hurts

[urban sleet]

Gvg in IS

[haughty holly]

bold of u to assume I play is

[winter crystal]

Ethan

[haughty holly]

Only is I play a lot back then was is5
Is6 is.. well let's just say crown brainrot

[runic willow]

Ethan the only one?

[opaque remnant]

ethan S2

[raven ermine]

Did you even read what i said

[carmine trout]

is mizuki in recruitment pool

[haughty holly]

@runic willow scrolling up is important

[raven ermine]

Can add purestream to an extent, but she's not benefiting nearly as much as these two

[shrewd peak]

🙄

[vital kelp]

-# we all pretend nothing happened

[runic willow]

When is indigo used? She seems to have a similar use case as ethan

[vital kelp]

4 star only clear binder

Maybe in is but click is right there

[shrewd peak]

Are you asking this over 4* only niche

[haughty holly]

Hi satori

[runic willow]

general use case

[vital kelp]

Nowhere

[shrewd peak]

If it's IS shes just a click alternative
for 4* only she does high tile bind with actual dps unlike ethan

[raven ermine]

She's kinda good in IS, good coping draft when you get a caster ticket

[haughty holly]

Click clutches a lot in is actually goated operator

[shrewd peak]

You are not going to use any dps low rarity units in general content if you are not on a niche

[vital kelp]

Ur not realistically using 4 star if u ain’t a newbie

[haughty holly]

low hope moment

[raven ermine]

And yeah she's somewhat similar to ranged ethan
But for both of those, they're not gen content units

[winter crystal]

With attack speed she can repeatedly stun lock an enemy but at that point I’m sure you have other options

[runic willow]

When I say gen i meant is
Like how click, amiya etc, but yea

[vital kelp]

Bro literally said general use case

[haughty holly]

At that point I replace with regular kroos

[halcyon cloak]

What’s probably the most useful 5 star to get from this?

[vital kelp]

Bruh

[haughty holly]

Bro said amiya

[raven ermine]

I actually prefer drafting indigo over click, she benefits better from e2, and does not become irrelevant when you get better damage options

[formal shadow]

proviso

[raven ermine]

screenshot the pool

[haughty holly]

Ah right Mr obviously not ulpi biased main
Should I do ulpi s2m3 over trag s3m3?

[raven ermine]

Nope, ulpi s2 is a lie

[abstract mauve]

slop vs good skill smh

[haughty holly]

Dang is it that bad

[halcyon cloak]

Apparently these are the only ones I can get which I don’t have yet lmao

[hexed adder]

Just focus on trag

[abstract mauve]

no. not bad just afk

[vital kelp]

Mayu is a known afk slop hater

[raven ermine]

No, but it's not really comparable to trag s3
And in most situations, if you click buttons, ulpi s3 will outperform s2 by quite a bit

[winter crystal]

As it should be

[hollow comet]

did zima end pepe or they are having a mid off

[vital kelp]

Pepe never started

[snow beacon]

for the april fools event are you suppose to leak the rat

[heady ruin]

"mid off"

[hexed adder]

pepe just decoration

[winter crystal]

Zima is beating Pepe dead horse

[opaque remnant]

pepe has been dead in a ditch, nyamu was evaporated

[raven ermine]

Nothing of value there, you can either keep it and pick later for collection from those you're missing, or straight up just using it on a p6 unit for certs

[vital kelp]

Nyamu is alive(in my heart)

[heady ruin]

they both have different use cases but Zima is fucking insane with that range

[halcyon cloak]

May as well hold onto it then

[hexed adder]

CN anniv almost here, better save the hype

[formal shadow]

where were you when Djerwnapekhaper Saciut Hatshepsut is die
i was at home watching pepe gameplay in cn when phone ring
"pepe is die"
"no"

[hollow comet]

thank god

[haughty holly]

Hmmm alright then
I do need help against hard mode PTRS tho until today I still can't clear that
And yeah many guides using ulpi s2m3

[heady ruin]

no I'm making fun of you

[haughty holly]

And gladia s1m3

[hollow comet]

what i do

[raven ermine]

Guides using ulpi s2 and gladiia are just low step/afk
And ulpi s3 will be better for PRTS

[heady ruin]

somehow think that zima could ever be mid...

[abstract mauve]

sl7 is enough for gladiia pretty sure

[stone ore]

Which one should I choose

[hexed adder]

Zima looks nice tbh, but thankfully 6 months clairvoyance

[winter crystal]

Pins

[hollow comet]

i was literally just asking but sure

[formal shadow]

debuff probs

[raven ermine]

Overall ulpi m6 isn't a bad idea, but it's just not a priority at all

[haughty holly]

I thought as well and I saw the lurker went in blue box 💀

[haughty holly]

Oki I'll keep that in mind, stage be delayed again

[vital kelp]

U not m9?

[runic willow]

anyone used Marcille s3? Do you ever wanna use it?

[abstract mauve]

sl7 gladiia was enough for normal stage. thought the cycle would lineup for the h stage

[obtuse berry]

I picked Lappland, but you can go for the Ptilo, Wafarin, Specter, Cantabile, Surfer, Greyy i guess

[hollow comet]

so did she make nasti any less niche or

[abstract mauve]

nasti has no relevance to zima

[hexed adder]

Dude too lazy to improvise 1:1 afk slop or smt

[vital kelp]

Oh yeah

Looking at range and damage marcelle s3 is actually really similar to zima

React to high tile too

[frosty flame]

There is a pinned guide for this with conditions

[abstract mauve]

except marcille's react can negatively affect you more

[hollow comet]

isnt her damage has something to do with nearby ranged tiles

[raven ermine]

There's no mid off there lol
Pepe is bad, it's kinda known, she has many flaws
Zima looks pretty decent, and actually improved on pepe's flaws quite a lot
Bind is better than stun to guarantee damage going off, it's also just a better CC overall
Hitting without a target is also one of pepe's big flaws

[hexed adder]

Fixed interval can also be nice on some situation

[abstract mauve]

ye it does but there's enough ranged tiles in stages that she wouldnt get any meaningful damage from nasti unlike chen3 s3 and leizi2 s3. even those usecases are meme usecases since it takes too much effort to setup

[frosty flame]

Which of the chen alters is considered alter alter, the holungday?

[raven ermine]

chen guard 2

[abstract mauve]

chen2 is holungday chen3 is dawnstreak

[frosty flame]

Ah

[silver smelt]

chen the dawnstreak

[frosty flame]

Got a little confused lookin at the roadless

[raven ermine]

Nah what for
My only 2 m9s are leizi and weedy

[haughty holly]

S1m3 for faster pulls cool down 🔥

[hexed adder]

Maleknights puller beside eben

[vital kelp]

wtf no true love

[raven ermine]

-1 sp cost and no shift force 🥹

[frank talon]

Are we allowed to discuss wang banner operators yet

Cool cool, uh, what's the deal with Taraxcums archetype

[formal shadow]

ever since they got revealed in the livestream
my bet is that they want to make something flying cause everyone be flying in the big 26 (see: leizi2, skybox, etc.)

[haughty holly]

Testament on how shit ulpi s1 is 🥀

[raven ermine]

Basically, a medic with take off during skill
Really there's not much to it

[hexed adder]

surely cook smt on 6*

[formal shadow]

on skill: make everyone fly

[frank talon]

But the wiki says he's a ranged operator??

[haughty holly]

?
In what world is a medic melee

[raven ermine]

Well yes, he's a medic

[frank talon]

Why would a medic need to take off

[raven ermine]

Ranged just mean they go on ranged tiles

[opaque remnant]

if a medic doesn't have range, the fuck is the medic supposed to do

[haughty holly]

Why not

[frank talon]

Ykw fair enough

[formal shadow]

more survivability, in theory

[raven ermine]

5* are kinda known to be test subjects
They'll either cook something good with the 6*, or forget the archetype exists in the first place

[formal shadow]

for the 6* if the archetype is bad they'll just stuff <archetype-ignoring talent/skill> or numbers and call it a day

[snow hare]

Trying to catch up on operators I've missed.
Most of them I should be able to get from future orienteering banners but seeing Lemuen in Joint Operations now makes me think she won't be in one of those for a while.

Y'all think this is currently my best chance to get her or do we know of anything like 6* selector packs, etc. that would include her?

[opaque remnant]

rarely they come up with good new 5 star archetypes (matsukiri)

[hexed adder]

Arts defender after 6 years smh

[haughty holly]

Sash2 pram2 coming up joint is basically bait

[snow hare]

That's not what I asked though

[runic willow]

Reclassify themselves as guardian

[livid crest]

I just realized and confirmed that Ansel is a dude by reading from that holiday outfit of his description, made for men. Thought to myself at the time that probably she could crossdress but after I went to the wiki, I was wrong. Was there any other early operators that I might possibly mistaken off of their gender based on their base non E2 appearances?

[frank talon]

Not the place for that but yeah

[opaque remnant]

pretty sure all operator genders are literally in their profile?

[formal shadow]

conviction

[runic willow]

Your assumption that everyone can read

[slender temple]

You can literally read their gender from in-game profile

[winter crystal]

So help what is the “meta” advise for this

[formal shadow]

that requires 3 button clicks. too tedious

[haughty holly]

3 button AND reading

[opaque remnant]

fair

[haughty holly]

Last step is hard

[livid crest]

I was just outside of the game, and I was having my full focus on clearing mama john plate something security drill thing, forgot about it by the time I was there and just remembered it a minute ago

[haughty holly]

Mama John plate...?

[hexed adder]

Its kinda subjective so, tho ansel quite famous on that matter

[winter crystal]

This is some really interesting bakaruu lore

[toxic oyster]

Hi guys, which of this units should I prioritize building to E2 + Mod if needed?

[hexed adder]

Sss map

[haughty holly]

Oh

[raven ermine]

Play SSS, i can feel your mod mats stash screaming

[spare jetty]

ange IS mod

[livid crest]

Yeah I don't know where I got that description off of his outfit for that one, but I remember going to summertime beats event section and unlocking and getting 3 new welfare characters

[haughty holly]

I still have 50 so am good

[spare jetty]

i have 102 modblocks

[abstract mauve]

i have 2

[winter crystal]

Bagpipe, Lumen, BP and wiscoot all E1 in the same image 😭 (please don’t invest anymore into them)

[livid crest]

37 on me I think

[raven ermine]

Ange, weedy
Greyy2/kroos2/indigo/may if you play IS

[rocky pilot]

How's the new surtr mod on first impressions

[raven ermine]

Looks bad, especially compared to her current one

[abstract mauve]

ass

[vital kelp]

Not enuff numbers according to bloodywolfw

But surtr in 2026 is already whatsoever

[abstract mauve]

1 (one) second more invincibility

[haughty holly]

Gladia mod if u have ulpi but low prio

[coarse portal]

recommendations?

[raven ermine]

No do not the gladiia 🥹
30 DR, 210 hps, ts so bad

[opaque remnant]

I would recommend you set up a krooster account instead of needing to post multiple screenshots each time

[hexed adder]

I thought atleast its gonna be -rdp after talent triggers

[raven ermine]

Would go for 1/3 weedy with spec

[abstract mauve]

nop. no peak design for you. you get 30 aspd when she's about to die

[vale dock]

specialist gamble

[livid crest]

I was wondering how much can I get out of that game mode, and suprise me I did that there is a thing called seasonal challenge mission or something that rewards you quite nicely there, that 20k and 60k lmd is nice for one simple type task, though took some time since I only brought myrtle as DP gen

[haughty holly]

But that means I don't need to heal ulpi

[molten scroll]

is there anything hard about 7-9 other than the early waves

[abstract mauve]

haruka upon ye

[keen hedge]

*"I was having my full focus on clearing mama john plate something security drill thing"*This phrase is so funny out of context 🤣

[raven ermine]

But now you need to deploy gladiia 🤮

[haughty holly]

Yeah that's the downside 💀

[haughty holly]

Haruka too busy babysitting trag cuz he's taking damage from breathing

Usually what happens in most stages is ulpi far from other ops cuz either: enemy aoe splash
Spawncamping
Somewhere haruka can't reach/other teammates outside of haruka range

[slim tusk]

just don't let him taking dmg

[abstract mauve]

me think just kill enemy faster

[haughty holly]

Mb bro 🥀

[silver sky]

when is the guaranteed top op recruitment gonna show?

[lucid scarab]

Is there a tier list for top operator tag

[frigid stream]

forbidden word

[bronze finch]

can i refresh the top operator tag?

[dusty zenith]

😐

[rocky pilot]

Do you want to explode?

[bronze finch]

umm

[frigid stream]

Why would you refresh the top op tag

[vale dock]

yes, if you for some reason don't need it

[dusty zenith]

Crazy work

[bronze finch]

to get other combos

[signal dragon]

you can refresh any tag
0.2% chance to get top op

[frigid stream]

The top op tag will refresh too bruh

[bronze finch]

i see

[vale dock]

if you refresh, top op will also get refreshed

[silver sky]

i used 300 vouchers only got senior op tag, so im in need of it

[bronze finch]

i thought since its an event it will stay

[silver sky]

nah be happy with what you get

[bronze finch]

any good combos that you guys recommend?

[rocky pilot]

There was one guy who thought refreshing the senior op tag can get better tags since is guaranteed senior tag this patch and he lost it

[silver sky]

get what you dont have

[bronze finch]

i have nothing i just started playing like a week ago

[raven ermine]

crowd control for ceobe/mosti/weedy

[silver sky]

silverash guaranteed for guard and suppot tag

[rocky pilot]

Crowd control you get a 3/5 chance for either ceobe, mosti or weedy

[opaque remnant]

there's guaranteed silverash, mostima, or you could do top op CC for chance at weedy

[silver sky]

https://aceship.github.io/AN-EN-Tags/akhr.html just check here

[gray grove]

Any combos to get a gud chrac? considering my owned 5 star operators

[frigid stream]

thats the old link isn't it

[raven ermine]

The site isn't even updated

[silver sky]

ohh is there a new one

[frigid stream]

https://puppiizsunniiz.github.io/AN-EN-Tags/akhr.html

[silver sky]

nice thanks

didnt know a new one popped up, im an old player just coming back

[signal dragon]

[raven ermine]

The old aceship isn't supported anymore

[opaque remnant]

e0 proviso and shamare...

[reef sparrow]

[raven ermine]

That's a fork of aceship

[bronze finch]
