help

[timber finch]

ah alright, was wondering exactly because of logos and tragodia lol

[vital kelp]

lim doesnt mean meta

[drifting prairie]

then the next stndard is the thorns alt rerun

[formal shadow]

muelsyse is meta frfr

[vital kelp]

standard banner is the two op banner

[wraith sentinel]

Kernel banner isn't worth pulling even if good ops are rate-up because you don't get Distinction Certificates (gold ones) for pulling.

Best option is to buy from the shop if possible.

[vital kelp]

standard banner is the one where ur shoperator comes from, ur talking about debut and rerun which arent standard banners

[pale glen]

Would going all in with 80 pulls plus all 256 certs a wise idea for Sash2 and Pram2?

[wraith sentinel]

Those are still standard banners by pity though.

[rocky pilot]

I would just get one 6* and stop tbh and save my pulls

[timber finch]

that's my objective currently, trying to get new 6stars with my 200 🙏

[vital kelp]

yes but no one calls them standard banner to avoid confusion

[drifting prairie]

isnt buying pulls with yellow cert technically more worth it? at least thats the advice i always get

[wraith sentinel]

You get a 6* for like twenty-something pulls, is pretty decent.

[wraith sentinel]

What confusion are you avoiding? I feel it adds more if anything, since the main relevant thing is pity.

[vital kelp]

if u read the pins you can see people telling u to avoid standard banner like plague

[tepid thistle]

That's if you are lucky , normally its about 50 pulls for a 6 star

[slim tusk]

newer ops is generally better but it's also depend on the op

[wraith sentinel]

Buying from the shop is a set 180 Distinction cost.

[chilly apex]

if you are confortable with waiting maybe infinity time until you hit an op from losing the rate up it is better i think

[slim tusk]

shop op is generally like 2 years op,only a few worth buying

[tepid thistle]

Yes normally it is except for a few really good operators

[rocky pilot]

Isn’t ulpipi and ray and so coming sooner or later if I am not wrong

[wraith sentinel]

Just say avoid reruns, but I suppose it makes a bit of sense.

[chilly apex]

i think its like 6 months or so still

[vital kelp]

??? some reruns can be good like trag coming later, standard banner is the banner with two uprate and shoperator that u should avoid

[proven kelp]

Kinda depends on who is that Op is

But yes, nowadays it is much better to get pulls since Modern Units are much much more powerful than ops that are 2 year old

Unless its like Mlynar or Trag, i won't really recommend buying anyone else from Gold Cert

[drifting prairie]

I only buy ops with yellow cert if I think it’s gonna be hard to get them to complete collection

[wraith sentinel]

I've never heard that banner being referred to as the only standard banner to be honest, but I guess you learn something new everyday.

Anyway, if you really like an Operator and they appear in the shop the cost is quite alright for the equivalent amount of pulls.

[formal shadow]

standard headhunting so

[tepid thistle]

Logos,Ascalon,Ulpi and Ray are also good upcoming buys from gold cert shop

[coarse notch]

i dunno if i would buy them in this day and age tbh, depends on how power starved the account is

but those are good buys i agree

[chilly apex]

but even so, its so fay away you can spend now for pulls if you want and have enought by then

[tepid thistle]

Yeah true

[wraith sentinel]

(Also, not really a priority, but certain 5*s are nice to have as well from Kernel.)

[coarse notch]

ehh you wait for the 5 star selector for those

[proven kelp]

They're good ops but not really someone i will consider worth buying over having better chances for Pram2 and Wang

[tacit dew]

Should I save for any upcoming banner or should I pull on the current banners

[wraith sentinel]

Save for the limited banner next week.

[tacit dew]

Okay

[vital kelp]

light need to update pull prio

[tacit dew]

Whos up next?

[wraith sentinel]

SilverAsh the Reignfrost and Pramanix the Prerita.

[sick night]

If I skip silverash alter will he rerun in a year? It’s been so long since I’ve played I can’t remember.

[wraith sentinel]

(I gotta say I hate the capitalization mid-name, it bugs me so hard. At least they 'fixed' that with Crownslayer.)

[coarse notch]

hes the limited so no

[sick night]

Thanks

[frank wing]

He'll be sparkable in a year but no he doesn't get a rerun

[chilly apex]

are you happy(or atleast build him) if you get an offbanner lee or do you leave him benched for the rest of your life?

[coarse notch]

benched

[wraith sentinel]

Merchants are funny.

[worldly fern]

im new, should i get this silverAsh? I dont understand the banners

[chilly apex]

sadge

[coarse notch]

mine is built but objectively speaking most players will never actually need him
build who you want tho

[wraith sentinel]

Yes, limited banners these days as a rule are good to pull on.

[coarse notch]

you should be pulling on his banner because hes good and he shares it with pramanix who is even better

[worldly fern]

oh, i was planning to pull on surtr but found out shes a standard and so the kernel banner is

[coarse notch]

never pull on the 2 op rotating standard or kernel banners
those two banners are complete bait

[wraith sentinel]

I think in the past year the only slightly questionable operator on a limited banner has been Blaze the Igniting Spark, and only if you didn't get Yu?

[raw wigeon]

surtr is washed sadly

[tacit dew]

I'm not too sure if I want to pull for Silverash alter just because I feel like I have good enough vanguards would it be worth it?

[worldly fern]

i did a single ten pull on the discount banner and got blaze though

[robust thistle]

Wdym slightly, blaze alt is very underwhelming

[coarse notch]

hes the second best vanguard in the game so yes
also your goal is getting pramalter specifically

[wraith sentinel]

His utility goes beyond just DP generation.

[robust thistle]

Shes borderline unusable without yu, and is just decent with yu

[coarse notch]

marcille and pepe were both very whelming as well
the lappalt/vulpis banner was just okay too

[wraith sentinel]

I didn't get her so I wasn't too sure (only got three Yu's).

[worldly fern]

So this is the limited banner, the other three are bait?

[wraith sentinel]

No, that's a standard banner.

[frank wing]

No, the limited banner isnt out yet

[coarse notch]

that banner and the one to the right are bait
the limited isnt out yet

[hoary ruin]

Nope. Limited banner is not up until the 14th.

[worldly fern]

ohhh, glad i didnt pull

[coarse notch]

limited banners have a special entrance animation and a timer on their pulls
and only have the two featured 6 stars on the banner image itself, no 5 stars

[wraith sentinel]

Limited banners only come out every quarter year.

[bright lake]

am i all clear to use these 4d expiry pots?

[coarse notch]

yea

[robust thistle]

Unless you wanma watch them rot

[frank wing]

if you want to, just dont let them expire

[worldly fern]

okk, thank you all

[bright lake]

i just dont know if we got another event in 5d

[coarse notch]

our next event is sash2 in 6 days

[bright lake]

confirmed in 6d?

[tepid thistle]

Yes.

[coarse notch]

yep, livestream was today and its in pins

[wraith sentinel]

Check pins for timestamp.

[bright lake]

cool thnx pablo, now i dont got to read

[sweet warren]

Wait.. where the hell is free Top Operator recruit. It said "After Update" when I tried to get it but now the tab gone?

[wraith sentinel]

When SilverAsh's event is live.

Discord should add sticky messages...

[vital kelp]

some servers do, its just an ass to conversations

and the pins is literally right there

[wraith sentinel]

Wait, is it a new feature I haven't heard of or is it with bots?

[vital kelp]

bots

[wraith sentinel]

Yeah that sounds obnoxious.

[neat acorn]

Used to be in a server where a bot sends a message when a certain word is mentioned

[neat kayak]

Is it worth it to pull for silverash alter when he releases or nah?

[coarse notch]

the banner is worth it regardless of your roster

[wraith sentinel]

If there isn't someone in the next six months you extremely want to pull not much reason not to.

[coarse notch]

your target is pramalter but you should be going for both

[sick night]

I have 300 pulls saved for silverash and pramanix alter. There’s 3 months before Wang, yeah? I should be able to get enough pulls to get them all, pog.

[coarse notch]

you're more than fine yea

[sick night]

I like how I took a 6 month break and I still can get every meta operator.

[neat acorn]

You can get all four with 10 pulls trust

[winter crystal]

brave of you to post a roster with projekt red 🥀

[neat kayak]

Hopefully i'm able to farm as much pulls as i can before the silverash alter banner

[sick night]

I got Sakiko, haruka, etc.

[coarse notch]

get chen3 as well when wang comes around

[neat kayak]

I've got no other good operators that do the same as her

[sick night]

Arknights feels pretty generous.

[winter crystal]

gravel.....

[pale tapir]

good thing lyudmila is free with lapptop event rerun soon™

[neat acorn]

Most generous gacha game besides pgr

[sick night]

I’d use gravel over projekt red unless you maxed her

[abstract mauve]

i'd switch out fedex before project red 🤫

[sick night]

I am a big gravel enjoyer though

[pale tapir]

I'd assume they're using red for the stun and not the bait
red eats a scratch of dmg and dies

[wraith sentinel]

Limbus Company though.

[neat kayak]

I'm gonna be honest, mostly for bait for exu alter's S2...

[coarse notch]

i think if you made players run through IS every week you might start a riot

[pale tapir]

[winter crystal]

hes using S1.......

[slim tusk]

no need to bait exu s2

[winter carbon]

projekt red is the op that got me into playing fast redeploys

[sick night]

Usually the short stun isn’t much longer than gravel survives but with enough investment she’s perfectly competent tbh

[sick night]

S1? Damn, who does that?

[neat kayak]

[winter crystal]

🥀

[slim tusk]

anyhow miksa and red is dead slot regardless

[light latch]

I use projekt red for dmg sometimes

[wraith sentinel]

To be fair MD requires a lot less thought than IS, but yeah often I just don't do it for a few weeks at a time.

[abstract mauve]

i sometimes run crownslayer s1 ye

[neat kayak]

Hopefully we get crownslayer alter and she's just a texas alter powercreep 🙏

[coarse notch]

projekt red damage is pretty solid against 9600 def and 50% DR with 300 atkspd!

[abstract mauve]

crownslayer already better than texalter

[wraith sentinel]

She already is.

[neat kayak]

Really? I thought she was pretry bad, i don't have her regardless so eh

[slim tusk]

stunbot

[wraith sentinel]

At high investment she's quite good due to her new Module.

[abstract mauve]

you say stun bot like texalter isnt that but worse

[wraith sentinel]

Essentially ~50% uptime I think?

[coarse notch]

okay im not a fan of texalter or something but calling crownslayer texalter powercreep doesnt sit right with me

[abstract mauve]

i never said powercreep. i just think she's better

[slim tusk]

it's just shiled shilling

[abstract mauve]

texalter can actually die during skill. has dogshit s3 uptime on stun that enemies can actually hit her worse range as well

[coarse notch]

shiled shileding

[abstract mauve]

damage isnt even an issue since they deal comparable damage

the only actual thing texalter has over crownsalyer is that she can hit air and target more enemies on deploy only

[coarse notch]

i feel like hitting air and having aoe are pretty significant advantages

[winter crystal]

shes also hotter

[wraith sentinel]

Debatable.

[abstract mauve]

i feel like the other things combined make crownslayer better. hitting air only makes her better in is3

[coarse notch]

especially since neither are used in advanced content and in gen content frds are just used as erasers for your mistakes

[formal shadow]

it depends 🧘‍♂️

[abstract mauve]

you can reliably stun powerful elites using crownslayer. texalt gets bodied or just does fuck all

[wispy peak]

will eblana be in the cert shop any time soon?

[winter crystal]

no

[coarse notch]

eh unless the elites have uncancelable attack windups the microstuns still work

[winter crystal]

around the same time monster will

[abstract mauve]

rerun just happened on CN. give it 1 more year on CN and 1.5 years on global

[proven kelp]

Texas2 fraud frfr

[wispy peak]

aight will she be in the next 6 selector?

[wraith sentinel]

Crownslayer was used in a max Risk CCB4 clear I think?

[abstract mauve]

that doesnt factor into the discussion not one bit
CC doesnt exist

[coarse notch]

she was the first to be optimized out when people were still clueless about the actual ending strategy
and yea max risk cc kinda isnt relevant

[forest parcel]

Is penance strong?

[wraith sentinel]

Fair enough, I did find her helpful at least on a lower risk clear.

[winter crystal]

if youve ever seen max risk cc its so skizo it doesnt apply to the rest of the game

[coarse notch]

there was the schizo lappalt fear rng blazealt yu s3 strategy as well but i dont think anyone is vouching for them on that basis

[winter crystal]

that plus monster S3

[abstract mauve]

CC has a largely different meta from the rest of the game based on the roulette they have for the risks. if they keep the -aspd we might actually never see agents there again

[winter crystal]

cc3 was pull and push op tho at least for basic clear I didnt check high risk

[formal shadow]

weedy + gladiia real

[coarse notch]

10 dp deduction on deployment and rdp time up

[formal shadow]

needed mody lvl1 gladiia and it depends which vid you looked at for weedy mod

[light latch]

Time to add -sp and CC’d for set duration on deployment

[coarse notch]

meanwhile mon3tr gets hit by like 4 risks and doesnt give a fuck

[formal shadow]

yeah most used modx but I believe the low op one actually used mody weedy

[winter crystal]

actually i made it work with just E2 lvl 1 gladiia and E1 weedy, had to deploy weedies cannon twice as much as normal and needed suzu passive to slow the last guy enough for him to not walk out of gladiias S1 eventually

skizo solution for a skizo game mode

[wraith sentinel]

I do prefer the other modes I suppose, yeah.

[winter crystal]

I mean dont get me wrong its fun, but at high risk its usually mindnumbing watching what people come up with

[limpid yarrow]

i think its rather interesting
compared to most players solutions of "how can i just block this even more"

[winter crystal]

its also fun to see different ops instead of the same ones again and again used in unique ways

[sick night]

I replaced Ptilopsis with Haruka, Purestream with Monst3r, and Myrtle with Tragodia and Gladiia with Sakiko Togawa. This squad seems to perform well for me. If you could replace one operator with any one other operator, who would it be?

[limpid yarrow]

who invited the medium cups

[sick night]

I am working on maxing the new ops modules.

[limpid yarrow]

vulpis has to go im afraid

[thorny edge]

tragodia wants his breakpoint

[winter crystal]

replace vulp with sashalt and tex with pram2

[sick night]

I plan to swap her with silverash alter! Don’t worrt.

[limpid yarrow]

reaplce logos with tex2 tbh

[sick night]

Wait, did silverash’s banner end or come yet? Did I miss it?

[limpid yarrow]

logos the 🐛🐛🐛
texas is at least a safety belt for gen content

[sick night]

I forgot to log on for a while, busy irl

[thorny edge]

replace logos with wangussy

[winter crystal]

well whatever he needs, pram2 and logos is kinda redundant yeah

[limpid yarrow]

not yet, it'll be here on the 14th

[coarse notch]

how is lappalter dodging all the allegations here

[sick night]

Thanks, I will definitely pull them both and try texas or logos -> Pramanic and Vulpis into Sulverash

[limpid yarrow]

lappalter is a comfy gen content merchant

[slim tusk]

ditch lappalt

[sick night]

I love lapp alter, my pet unit, I never cut her, sorry she is very fun

[winter crystal]

bc theres no more comfy op then a global one for gen content

[sick night]

I love watching her wolves chase every enemy all the way to the red box haha

[coarse notch]

[sick night]

Exactly, I used to use goldenglow before her, very comfy and ez mode

[winter crystal]

youll replace ela with wang tho

[sick night]

Yes, ela to wang is ideal. I agree.

[winter crystal]

and hopefully eventually haruka for monster

[sick night]

I use two healers so I use both haruka and monster

[slim tusk]

they do diff things but whatever

[sick night]

One’s offensive and one is defensive

[slim tusk]

you have like full squad 6* it doesn't matter atp

[winter crystal]

ik but its still monster over haruka generally unless you need haruka for a specific stage

[sick night]

Yeah, Monster carries hard

[winter crystal]

oh wait im blind wtf you have monster jesus i think i need sleep
you only need one healer

[sick night]

Okie, I find two comfy is all, but one is usually enough, yes

[heady thunder]

which mod is better for saileach?

[pallid creek]

Will sa alter replace ines or myrtle in everyday use?

[winter crystal]

uhhh myrtle isnt a part of the discussion

[hidden nacelle]

is neither an option

[vital kelp]

no

[light latch]

The default module

[pallid creek]

???

[heady thunder]

honestly valid

[winter crystal]

myrtle is no longer needed now that we have agents like surfer, canta and ines,
Sash2 and ines also work well together

[formal shadow]

y

[slim tusk]

when the best dps like exu and wang cost like peanuts,why do you need flags

[pallid creek]

Oh..I have still just been using the bagpipe setup for first tries on any stages so far

[winter crystal]

bagpipe is badpipe

[pallid creek]

[wanton meadow]

Uh for the jp announcements earlier, what was supposed to be in the mastery ticket packs again?

[pallid creek]

Well..true

[waxen brook]

Is ifrit worth it to m6 for afk and some difficult content?

[light latch]

They should go back to making ops cost 25+ dp for a bit again and watch opinions on vg do a 180

[winter crystal]

looks at mudrock 36 dp cost

[pallid creek]

Also, how good is zima s2 at afk content? Will she be replacing ulpianus in everyday content?

[fathom nest]

Stronger Blaze s2

[pallid creek]

Guessed as much

[random kestrel]

as good as afk would go

[pallid creek]

Thanks for answering guys

[severe nexus]

Should I raise Elysium even I already have myrtle built?

[winter crystal]

no

[fathom nest]

Skimming through the jp stream and I can't find what you're talking about

[prime flame]

which skill do i m3 for myrtle

[ivory terrace]

s1

[wanton meadow]

This one

[rocky pilot]

Nobody uses s2 to begin with

[bold kernel]

Is using Logo's base skill or a 60% training speed faster for mastering the last 2 levels of a skill?

[wanton meadow]

What's the 12

[dire furnace]

logos > logos > lvl 3 training skill for that class

[winter crystal]

1500 yen is about 9.50 dollars?

[bold kernel]

Bet ty

[fathom nest]

Originite

[dire furnace]

same for irene base skill

[wanton meadow]

Ish

[random kestrel]

should be OP

[winter crystal]

10 bucks for mastery pack is pretty cheap no?

[random kestrel]

yes

[winter crystal]

i got like 15-20 in my head or is that the E2 pack/max level pack

[winter crystal]

ah ok yeah 20 for E2

[random kestrel]

skill upgrade always hard and/or expensive to get

[rocky pilot]

Oh neat 36 op

[drifting prairie]

its not bad

[winter crystal]

id much rather a 10 dollar lvl 90 pack

[drifting prairie]

that exists (partially) isnt like 1 million lmd + 16 op for $10?

[crimson star]

Is firewatch worth building if the only 6 star snipers I have are exusiai and fartooth (I use kroos + kroos alter atm)

[fathom nest]

No

[winter crystal]

both 6 stars arent worth building either

[neon siren]

Hey, during sa2 upd, the top operator tag we get, the recruitment pool will have kaltist rt?

Ahh alr

[lyric lagoon]

summon tag will finally have a use for top op

[neon siren]

So medic summon, or just summon, will be a garunteed kal, but medic is a 1/3 chance with shining and nightingale

With top op tag ofc

[lyric lagoon]

just summon alone will guarantee her, there's no other summon top-op operator

[neon siren]

Ahh, alright thx

[formal shadow]

:clueless:

[sinful tapir]

Is there any use for jessicalter nowadays

[robust thistle]

Her use is the same as its always been

[sinful tapir]

What is it

[vital kelp]

socks can u add it in the pins the TO stuff

[nimble kite]

Laneholding with killing weak trash as well as tanking something not looking like Ep16 Cocaine Bear, but still the about same damage output power.

[sinful tapir]

Hmm spending 180 gold certs for her instead of buying pulls might be a mentally challenged move then

[robust thistle]

Meatshielf with a stun+extra body

[fathom nest]

What, the free one?

[vital kelp]

yeah, everyones asking about it

[shadow bay]

guys when will we have the TO tag???

[fathom nest]

Scheduled server maintenance will be held from <t:1776164400:F> until <t:1776178800:F>

[ebon plaza]

so does that mean we're getting the kjerag banner in 5 days as well or is that not how it goes

[fathom nest]

Bro

[void ivy]

Yeah Sash2 in 5 days

[nimble kite]

Event and banner starts in the same time.

[ebon plaza]

me when someone asks a question in the help channel

[fathom nest]

Me when question is answered in the message above the question

[outer gyro]

@urban sleet i got a job for you

[vital kelp]

Guys have u all thought about how the fact that "no one read pins" could be a survivor bias, if they do read the pins maybe they wont ask here and thats why everyone that do ask gives us the impression that no one reads pins

[shadow bay]

me when someone not spooning me in help

[robust thistle]

Lewd

[limpid yarrow]

hello i noticed im not being spooned can the mods fix this

[nimble kite]

Five. Minutes. Slowmode. 🚬

[vital kelp]

what if a lot of people actually do read the pins, its just we dont know they exist

hence how we got the impression that no one reads pins

[neon siren]

Maybe

[rocky pilot]

Man I have to wait for the vouchers I guess

[gray grove]

any good tierlist out there?

[coarse notch]

no

[knotty wave]

we dont do that here

[coarse notch]

its time for pvp

[rocky pilot]

I don’t have enough money cause out of everyone my own dad have to borrow a thousand dollars from me
Gotta wait until they’re returned so I can 💳 6* vouchers

[native cargo]

whos better surfer or cantabile

[knotty wave]

the selector is only 30 bucks

[coarse notch]

surfer is marginally better but in gen content just use whoever you like

[shadow bay]

ohh too sad lemme play my smallest violin here 🎻

[frank wing]

not really, as operators are good in certain scenarios and not others (such as lappland being great when you need silence and useless everywhere else) so just ranking them in a single tier doesnt really show that very well

[coarse notch]

just ask here if you want an assessment of your roster or a specific operator

[vital kelp]

i have a tierlist if anyone would like to have a look-

[kind plinth]

did u guys get your free top tag? the event seems over now its not in the home screen anymore and so far i obly got the senior tag

[coarse notch]

grub was never seen again

[rocky pilot]

For the love of
Pins

[lyric lagoon]

14th

[kind plinth]

sorryyyyy but thx

[runic willow]

Therefore, 3d tierlist

[rocky pilot]

Are these guys this down bad for a top op tag?

[outer gyro]

can i see

[kind plinth]

been ages since i get one💀💀🥲

[frank wing]

its just so exciting to get a bad operator you probably wont use

[rocky pilot]

Give me hellagur and my life is yours

[gray grove]

which one is best squad formation 1st , 2nd ,or 3rd?

[runic willow]

There are no fixed rules
Classes are just a suggestion

[robust thistle]

If you read it, you'll see its the same thing

[lyric lagoon]

all this for tag drop and then chen jumpscare

[rocky pilot]

Happened to me once

[vital kelp]

no help is gonna kill me

[robust thistle]

And please dont use all *3 like youre kyostinv's successor or something

[rocky pilot]

My dumbass went for solo top op tag instead of supporter for suzuran 50/50
safe to say I suffered the consequences of my own questions

[runic willow]

Bless late kyostin

[robust thistle]

You get 2 *5s and 2 *6s
Use then

[runic willow]

Actually what happened to the top tag event?

[vital kelp]

check pins

[robust thistle]

Nothing

[urban sleet]

Nobody gets top op tag since they couldn't read

[rocky pilot]

It’s already stated after update to begin with some people really cannot read

I forgot why I am here to ask crap

Right gnosis
He’s usable enough for general content right?

[urban sleet]

#icebreaker-lockers

[gray grove]

how to know if that 6 star can replace that op? does it need to be the same subclass or smth?

[pearl cave]

ooohh ok thanks

[robust thistle]

You read their kit

[urban sleet]

I was told he's used in IS

[lyric lagoon]

he is with mod

[rocky pilot]

I mean his is mod isn’t out yet but might as well ask outside of is

[outer gyro]

Most people rejected His message

They hated 230 pulls for max pot skk(done) because He told them the truth
Amiya. 4:16

[lyric lagoon]

his mod is coming literally in 5 days

[vital kelp]

😭 fr

[rocky pilot]

Right

[robust thistle]

What are you talking about

[buoyant sigil]

My very bad pull decisions right before limited

[rocky pilot]

Not even my low iq can understand this message

[severe crypt]

Just checked: them decisions baaaad

[robust thistle]

Who asked

We have #arknights for this kind of stuff

[severe crypt]

Also true

[rocky pilot]

Wait there’s another 6* voucher for 30 usd during wang banner right?

[buoyant sigil]

I’m asking on wether any of these are salvageable basically

[robust thistle]

There is no semblance of that sentence in the original statement

[severe crypt]

Ok I’m even more confused

[coarse notch]

bruh you could have waited for pozy cert

[buoyant sigil]

Sorry for the lack of clarity then

[severe crypt]

what are you asking is salvageable or whatnot

[lyric lagoon]

fia is dorm slave, pozy is... pozy, and you should already know our thoughts on typhon when you've been here this long

[buoyant sigil]

Sent it in salt mines

[coarse notch]

pozy is fine to build
typhon mid ass afk option which considering pramalt is about to release
penance is whatever
i sure hope you have the pulls for the celebration banner

[urban sleet]

Pozy is decent but uh gl playing tetris with her amd her typewriter

Typhon and penance are mid
Fia stays e0
Congrats on wasting all your pulls on worthless bums right before a limited

[buoyant sigil]

I see, what about jessica 2? Seen mixed opinions on her though generally leading towards mid-bad

[lyric lagoon]

she's like one of the defining ops of "mid"

[coarse notch]

shes pretty decent
not carrying anything though

[severe crypt]

…do you even have enough pulls for sash

[urban sleet]

They dont

[frank wing]

is gnosis IS mod one of those broken ones like mizuki and archetto? what does it do?

[rocky pilot]

He’s broke period

[snow siren]

is the next update Mlynar alter?

[sterile ledge]

is the guaranteed top op out?

[severe crypt]

Top 10 most preventable disasters

[urban sleet]

You can read pins for FAQd

[nova nest]

Did the Top operator recruitment already finish?

[bleak wave]

hows mumu?

[sterile ledge]

ah so the one I got wasn't the guarantee

[urban sleet]

Darderion you have been here long enough to know that such questions arr answered in pins

[snow siren]

wdym ❓

[frank wing]

mlynar alter has not been announced, so we don't know

[coarse notch]

not giga broken but quite strong, probably a bit below mizuki and archetto's
it increases damage against cold/frozen and lets kjerag apply cold

[snow siren]

the next alternate is Pramanix alter and mlynar alter.

[robust thistle]

Dude

[rocky pilot]

Damn new Mlynar alter everyone guess I am not pulling for wang anymore

Dude no, where did you even find that?
Is goddamn silverash and pramanix who is getting an alter

[severe crypt]

He’s joking right

[frank wing]

no its pramanix alter and silverash alter

[severe crypt]

This IS bait

[rocky pilot]

Did you mistake silverash s3 with mlynar or what

[urban sleet]

I mean its the guy who blamed us for their IS5 run loss due to their skill issues

[snow siren]

oh, sorry mixed their names. but the mandatory update is for silverash alter right>

[sterile ledge]

what tag do I pick?

[coarse notch]

cant believe i missed cinema wtf

[snow siren]

my guy, yall made the game harder

[rocky pilot]

I don’t even need to check the messages to know the context

[snow siren]

I asked what I should get to help me, you gave me something that hindered me.

[rocky pilot]

Okay now I am curious

[vital kelp]

this is peak cinema

[snow siren]

and then try and gaslight me into thinking its my fault.

[robust thistle]

Skill issue isnt the community's fault, just saying
The community just gave advice that worked for, everyone else

[urban sleet]

We didnt, yoy can cope harder about your skill issues
Complaining about us making you take ed5 when it has no effect on normal stages whatsoever and losing to said normal stage

[raw wigeon]

🍿

[vital kelp]

this is so fucking hilarious LMAOOOOOOO

[slim tusk]

bad koo smh

[rocky pilot]

Lmao fucking peak

[severe crypt]

Good god #help on that demon time this hour

[lyric lagoon]

where are the blues when you need them

[snow siren]

sure it is (gaslighting still) so is Silverash alter coming on the 14th or 15th?

[vital kelp]

check pins

[robust thistle]

pins

[slim tusk]

spin

[rocky pilot]

The simple discord feature named pins

[coarse notch]

after a quick scroll, your loss on chaos has absolutely nothing to do with tree man telling you to take ed5

[snow siren]

ok thanks

[robust thistle]

it literally has a timer that automatically converts to your local time

[thick token]

Should i buy surtr from gold cert shop or is there someone better coming?? I alr have lots of other dps like ulpi, lemuen, trag, SA, mlynar, sakiko...but i really need other meta ops like texalter, logos, ines etc

[urban sleet]

Their pathing choices were also questionable iirc lack of ops/e2s iirc

[severe crypt]

First sentence is enough for a definitive answer

[thick token]

So....Who is coming next??

[robust thistle]

define "next"

[urban sleet]

You only cert cream of the crop from gold cert shop

[lyric lagoon]

texalter isn’t even meta unless you need an emergency stun grenade for some reason

[tidal pond]

1. Surtr is terrible compared to the banners we have coming
2. Texalter is okay but also not worth pulling if you want to guarantee sash2

[runic willow]

I didn't see anything about it there

[vital kelp]

read harder

[rocky pilot]

Do you need my glasses

[runic willow]

Yes please

[frank wing]

id do supporter for suzuran gamble, or specialist and crowd control for weedy gamble

[thick token]

No i mostly just need an executor that's not gravel (i have none unless you count waai fu)

[robust thistle]

you dont need an executor

[sick night]

Not worth it unless she’s your waifu, she’s solid and her module makes her hold up much better since it’s like a 30% dps boost vs very hard targets iirc but she’s still been powercrept by a lot

[lyric lagoon]

why do you need an executor

[raw wigeon]

you have Tragodia S2 😭

[robust thistle]

the only good FRD is yato alt, and good luck getting her

[runic willow]

Could you screenshot where I'm supposed to look just this once

[rocky pilot]

Just kill dude it isn’t that hard

[sick night]

Yato is better than Texas but I still find Texas to be quite useful and fun to play

[thick token]

But the cat only lures and explodes, it doesnt bait, it has a longer redeployment time and there's only 1 of it

[robust thistle]

mfw texalt dies before getting halfway through her skill

[runic willow]

The sutr selector wasn't permanent?

[tidal pond]

Gravel is enough for any FRD purpose nowadays. She's tankier than the likes of crownslayer, which is really all you're going to use executors for.

[rocky pilot]

#help message

bloody hell I cannot believe I actually have to do this

[vital kelp]

this isnt true, ines is a good frd

[lyric lagoon]

halfway? she doesn’t even get a second hit off 💔

[thick token]

I dont have ines either

[lone valley]

Hi shat pookies

[rocky pilot]

Is anniversary

[runic willow]

Thanks , and brother I thought it was full screen alr

[sick night]

I don’t think so? I can’t remember honestly.

[lone valley]

Ofc it isnt

[lyric lagoon]

also if you want a stun grenade for some reason, crownslayer is right there, no need for texalter

[rocky pilot]

Hmmmm yes voucher for anniversary is permanent

[robust thistle]

thats literally the top message in the pins right

[thick token]

She's alr in global??

[vital kelp]

[sick night]

I still prefer Texas to Crownslayer

[urban sleet]

Texalter was released in 2023

[tidal pond]

Mfw the free stuff you get for the limited-time event is in fact limited-time

[abstract mauve]

i prefer crownslayer to texalter

[sick night]

It’s very true she’s not necessary anymore though

[runic willow]

Lightmode, I cancel my question

[thick token]

Isnt crownslayer constantly clowned on tho, how can she be better than texalt

[vital kelp]

u get cancelled

[robust thistle]

shes not

[sterile ledge]

I wanted magallan and got suzu pot 3

[sick night]

I wouldn’t bother trying to get Texas Alter anymore

[rocky pilot]

Fym she’s already in global she got added like a year ago

[lyric lagoon]

that was before the mod that made her actually usable

[thick token]

I remember i checked all the record restorations and didnt find her....am i stupid

[robust thistle]

because the event hasnt reran yet

[buoyant sigil]

Yeah, isn’t her event almost rerunning…? Like a few events from now

[frank wing]

I swear everyone who wants suzu gets magallan, and now you wanted magallan and got suzu 😭

[thorny edge]

frediboo <3

[rocky pilot]

You do know it hasn’t rerun right?

[thick token]

Oh so it's not rr

[robust thistle]

RR is 2 years after the original event run

[frank wing]

the rerun to get crownslayer is the event after the sash2 event

[abstract mauve]

record restoration is 2 years after original release. it hasnt even been a year yet

[frank wing]

wait no im stupid

[thick token]

Bruh i still have to wait after all....is she actually good with the mod or just "usable"

[robust thistle]

shes only good with mod3 and only for stunning purposes

[rocky pilot]

Maybe check https://arknights.wiki.gg/wiki/Operator/Free instead of checking each rr individually

[sick night]

Crownslayer is much better for stunlocking a single enemy tbh. I mostly use Texas for her 30% resistance debuff nowadays when I nuke things, but there’s many operators that give a similar buff or debuff.

[lone valley]

Laqy! 🥹
Darling dearest

[robust thistle]

shes not better than texalt if thats what youre asking

[sterile ledge]

she's really good in like high high end content, for general content not really

[robust thistle]

thats like saying ethan is better than ascalon

[slim tusk]

average player won't care about stunbot,just krill

[thick token]

Hmm aight

[abstract mauve]

it really isnt

[frank wing]

I think crownslayer was really only used in cc

[robust thistle]

it really is

[floral loom]

What's the best set of tags to use here?

[sick night]

It’s not like ethan vs ascalon because crownslayer action stunlocks one to three enemies for a long time, texas does a group but only a small stun

[robust thistle]

like no one cares about CS being able to stunlock one enemy unless they know what youre doing

this is like bibeak all over again

[sick night]

Texas however has her s2 to strip res and nuke lone enemies which I like, it’s comfy for general content

[abstract mauve]

crownslayer stunlocks 2 enemies 18 seconds. 3rd enemy for 12 seconds. doesnt have to be ST

[eager hull]

Were we supposed to get a Top Operator Recruitment Tag or smth recently?

[rocky pilot]

Pins

[sick night]

Yes, small groups work

[robust thistle]

oh but you can stunlock enemy indefinitely with bibeak by canceling their attack foreswing
no one cares

[thorny edge]

gen content doesnt need res shredding from texalt surely

[abstract mauve]

wdym

[sick night]

My bad but yeah, lower targets but she stuns longer is my point, the extra stun makes her a better cc operator

[floral loom]

Please I don't want to waste a Top operator chnce

[eager hull]

Ohh k thanks
I checked earlier today didnt see anything

[lyric lagoon]

and then hard content texalt is evaporating on deploy

[robust thistle]

what I mean is the fact that crownslayer is better at stunning than texalt doesnt mean shes better than texalt

[abstract mauve]

what does texalt do then?

[robust thistle]

stun and damage

[frank wing]

id say either caster support for mostima, or caster for ceobe/mostima/passenger/ifrit (you don't really want passenger though)

[abstract mauve]

how much damage?

[robust thistle]

yes shes washed by today's standards, but give them to any roster and she'll do great work

[thick token]

Texalt makes me happy

[robust thistle]

not everyone has the funny cat man
not everyone wants to sink s3m3 mod3 to a welfare that only has one specific use

[abstract mauve]

thats no reason to call texalter better tho

[sick night]

You don’t need it in general content and she does instadie in really hard stuff but it’s still comfy to have a cross map nuke in most content, just like using lappalter is rarely optimal, that’s my opinion anyways and why I use her. I agree that stuff like Tragodia S2 and Crownslayer S3 are better for CC in high end content.

[thorny edge]

texalt is better cuz i actually raised texalt

[frank wing]

why are we even arguing about this anyways

[sick night]

Personally also I already invested a lot of stuff into texas when she was very good

[abstract mauve]

if you got texalter today, the only reason you'd raise her is to try and find out what all the fuss about her was years ago

you wouldnt raise crownslayer at all which is fair

[sick night]

I don’t want to dump more into any other fwd just yet haha

[lyric lagoon]

somebody brought up “needing” executors

[thorny edge]

gng the age of executors is past

[robust thistle]

if a normal non-veteran got texalt as a spook and they dont have 10 other meta ops, I would still say to raise her because she still does work

[abstract mauve]

ye im not against that

[signal dragon]

wasn't that like a hour or two ago

[limpid yarrow]

texas alt is an expensive mr boom 😔

[thorny edge]

replaced with wangussy and friends

[lyric lagoon]

well they also said texalter was meta which devolved into this debate

[surreal wing]

april fools event will come back next year and i'll be able to get all rewards?

[sick night]

Any yes, her cross map nuke is being thoroughly eviscerated by Wang in three months, yet again. And yeah, anyone who says Texas is still actually meta and not merely usable is smoking something.

[frank wing]

like 15 minutes ago I think

[slim tusk]

no that's cs

[hidden nacelle]

corwnslayer mod for stun increase makes stun uptime how long on 3 enemies?

[sick night]

Imagine fielding squishy assassin instead of clusterbombs from the sky

[robust thistle]

permastun for the whole skill duration

[sick night]

I will likeky swap Texas out for Wang and keep Ela tbh

[wraith sentinel]

18s.

[sick night]

I like Ela more than Texas, her mines are super useful and combine very well with Wang’s ultimate

[robust thistle]

does wang has a Q W or E

[sick night]

Lmao, my bad, not his ultimate but his 3rd skill.

[rocky pilot]

When did arknights turn into a moba?

[lyric lagoon]

just one step away with how we have tft

[spare jetty]

wang is like
trapmaster but without the trap part

[coarse notch]

his s1 and s2 are pretty good too

[rocky pilot]

S2 does the most bomb damage no?

[severe crypt]

Soooo he’s just a master

[proven kelp]

He looks too gloomy to be a trap

[spare jetty]

true

[abstract mauve]

texalt doesnt do anything to anything more than how a mr boom would serve you and she's mechanically closer to one 🥱

[severe crypt]

Awful news for fib

[lyric lagoon]

for a single bomb, yes, but s3 spawns multiple

[rocky pilot]

Homelessmaster

[severe crypt]

That’s called a comp sci grad

[sick night]

S3 clusterbombs them, hard to beat tbh

Such low cooldown and huge range is insane, step 1 ela mine step 2 wang clusterbomb step 3 profit

[slim tusk]

mod 3 this bum to be expensive stunbot,sounds like mr bum boom

[rocky pilot]

I want to blow shit up with nasti + wang
Unfortunately I don’t have enough pulls for the both

[lyric lagoon]

just get sash2 and pram2 in 24 pulls

[frank wing]

what does nasti do for wang

[rocky pilot]

That’s the thing I am doing that

[lyric lagoon]

platform buff

[rocky pilot]

I wasted like what 80 pulls to begin with on useless standard banners

[pale tapir]

gives him a throne to aura farm on

[rocky pilot]

Damn we need a nasti skin next cn update to make our ops aura farm on the platform

[lyric lagoon]

platform buff is honestly quite nasty

[frank wing]

does the operator on the platform get a stat buff or anything

[severe crypt]

Just skillfully offrate her (you’ll just get hool)

[rocky pilot]

Does 60% atk on m3 sounds nice?

[frank wing]

oh damn

[rustic yoke]

which saria module is better?

[robust thistle]

y1

[rocky pilot]

Nah I wait for next year on her rerun

At that point I’ll probably have a job anyway to 💳

[pale glen]

What replaces jessica liberated banner?

[still surge]

Hey quick question when will crownslayer next show up? I know she’s not the best but I like her.

[lyric lagoon]

lin and lee

[coarse notch]

when lappalt event reruns, sometime soon after sash2

[frank wing]

the event after sash2

[still surge]

Time wise? Like a month or two?

[pale glen]

Oh, that's very bad

[rocky pilot]

We do not know just wait

[severe crypt]

And yet peeps will pull 🥀

[lyric lagoon]

going by cn events, stronghold first then lappalt event rerun

[pale glen]

The joint banner was also a trap ngl

[wraith sentinel]

She's quite good with her Module.

[coarse notch]

we know stronghold is on the 28th already so probably after that but who knows

[rocky pilot]

Millions must succumb to the hool curse

[lyric lagoon]

ah right, they did release stronghold release date

[pale glen]

I did

[rocky pilot]

Too bad

[severe crypt]

Really

[coarse notch]

holyheck is6 technology though

[sick night]

I’m on the wiki and it says Nasti S3 platforms give +160% ATK and +160% DEF. I assume by the wording that’s the platform’s buff and not for her own stats. Is it actually 60%? Also, idk what “Double the HP and SP recovery effect of Littlengineer Device for the Platform Device.” means.

[rocky pilot]

Now you got a hot lady you won’t ever use

[pale glen]

I got Degenmommy wdym

[lyric lagoon]

is6 dlc saving one hoolhayek off-rate with one cope at a time

[frank wing]

we've had stronghold before right? what is it?

[robust thistle]

the wiki says 20% atk buff on the platform per layer

[abstract mauve]

check the page for nasti's summons not her skill

[lyric lagoon]

do you know league of legends tft

[severe crypt]

So now you have a hot lady you may never use

[sick night]

So the 160% is for herself and the platform is 60% ATK?

[frank wing]

no

[robust thistle]

160% buff is for her own stats

[sick night]

Okay, thanks! Interesting operator. Might pull.

[rocky pilot]

Okay first off those 160% are for her own stats

[robust thistle]

the platform itself has another separate 'skill' like stainless

[rocky pilot]

You can check this yk

https://arknights.wiki.gg/wiki/Emergency_Support_Team

[lyric lagoon]

ok imagine sss but with shops and you can fuse the same operator with themselves to upgrade them, instead of different operators

[still surge]

Ok thanks. I’m just trying to get all of the reuinion related ops. I don’t have a list but I know she is one

[frank wing]

this doesn't really make sense but sounds fun

[robust thistle]

its literally autochess, but tower defense

[frank wing]

which event is the one with the big stage with 3 bosses, and when you kill a boss you get more stage and a new boss

[robust thistle]

thats TFN

[sick night]

Man I am having fun building all these new operators, they are sick

[still breach]

Its fun until you ran out of mats

[rocky pilot]

Honestly I may go ahead and pull nasti if is in July but knowing how to plan for dates and thinking when they’re most unlikely

[frank wing]

what does TFN stand for tho

[robust thistle]

trials for navigator

[wraith sentinel]

Trials for Navigator.

[frank wing]

ohhh ok ty

[wraith sentinel]

Made by our beloved Closure.

[coarse tide]

Dih

[still breach]

Does it do something to the ops? Or just 200 ori challenge for fun?

[wraith sentinel]

Paradox Simulations? The latter.

[still breach]

I see, a bit of extra cash to go then

[rocky pilot]

Why did he sound like mr crabs

[lyric lagoon]

endfield capitalism brainrot

[severe crypt]

Can confirm

[still surge]

Wonder when we’ll get more reunion ops like talulah. I mean I can fix her

[rocky pilot]

Chapter 16:

[robust thistle]

ask HG

[coarse notch]

maybe 7th anniv

[lyric lagoon]

7th anni will be another main story anni trust

[coarse notch]

maybe 4th 5th 6th 7th anniv

[lyric lagoon]

7 is the lucky number of course

[still surge]

When is arknights ani? I only know limbus ani cause I played that since launch

[rocky pilot]

Here’s how it goes talulah got jealous at chen’s two alters and joined rhodes island just to throw hands with her

[wraith sentinel]

It'll be the ninth anniversary because of Nine.

[coarse notch]

cn is may 1st
global date varies from year to year but its mid jan

[lyric lagoon]

yostar likes freeballing

[frank wing]

global is sometime in january

[still surge]

Ah so I missed this years gotcha

[hidden wolf]

Do we get sth for cn anni

[lyric lagoon]

no

[wraith sentinel]

It's global's half-anniversary so technically yes, but generally everything is staggered.

[lyric lagoon]

I mean unless you count “future vision” as something, then yeah, but we don’t directly receive anything for cn anni

[coarse notch]

when it comes around on global, if we are consistent with the past two years, we'll get a monthly card

[past ferry]

Could Quercus, Haruka and Perfume² together be a viable SP Battery?

[robust thistle]

just use ptilo

[urban sleet]

Quercus doesnt give sp per heal, its 1 sp or whatever it was oncr duribg the skill duration
Haruka's sp battery-ing is 1/8 gamble

[sick night]

Anyone have any idea how much attack and defense Zima alter gives all ops from her talent?

[wraith sentinel]

For Haruka it is 1/5th (20%).

[slim tusk]

quercus is 1 sp for each healing during s2 duration

[urban sleet]

so I ENed

[frozen echo]

mod?

[slim tusk]

anyhow just use direct sp battery atp instead of whatver this combo is

[shadow bay]

listen listen

stainless????

[lyric lagoon]

bro tryna play abjurerknight 😭

[left tulip]

Why did they post akkord mah I ask, is it smth they do just posting 4 star ops like that also she’s not that good is she

[urban sleet]

Akkord and hadiya are being added to red cert shop with sa2+pram2 event

[shadow bay]

definitely would build

[left tulip]

Would build akkord? Why?

[formal shadow]

if a new op debuts they post their preview

[radiant wyvern]

so degen is not able to get sa buffs ?

[formal shadow]

yeah cuz she's not from there

[proven kelp]

Very unfortunate that she's not getting a +Def

[robust thistle]

Dpes it say kjerag or karlan

[radiant wyvern]

this one is kjerag

[robust thistle]

Then yes, degen is leithanien

[austere wagon]

when ash limited coming?

[slim tusk]

degen is kjerag,sa buff her

[formal shadow]

well degen's faction is karlan and karlan is part of kjerag so

[frozen echo]

5 days

[proven kelp]

Can't u just use Tomimi

[left tulip]

How’s hadiya btw?

[radiant wyvern]

lets go degen buffed

[austere wagon]

in 5 more days?

[slim tusk]

how opie is tomimi

[robust thistle]

I love ambiguous factions

[frozen echo]

who broke wiki.gg

[slim tusk]

it's just sub faction she is both leithanien and kjerag

[formal shadow]

idk

[radiant wyvern]

its broken for me too i thought it was jst me

[urban sleet]

[formal shadow]

it's just broken

[lyric lagoon]

it’s still… usable, just gotta deal with weird ui

[hidden wolf]

What is this

[left tulip]

@shadow bay why you building akkord so I can get an excuse for it too

[lyric lagoon]

tomimi.dev

[hidden wolf]

Im asking the filter

[lyric lagoon]

faction: kjerag

[formal shadow]

to prove the point that all karlan ops are in fact considered kjerag faction

[odd sky]

can someone check puppiiz too

[urban sleet]

Simply read lore to know

[gusty charm]

Who should I build to e2 first(dont mind e2 amiya)

[formal shadow]

lem

[lyric lagoon]

same thing as tomimi

[urban sleet]

I am more concerned abour your lack of base slaves

[ivory terrace]

thorns
u alrdy got to that point and he needs e2

[urban sleet]

Nvm thats by rarity not level mb

[formal shadow]

degenbrecher has a good chunk of factions, a leithanien who became a kazimierz knight who is hired by Karlan trade :ya:

[slim tusk]

i'll do you better

[native cargo]

matterhorn upscale?

[robust thistle]

Dont bother

[proven kelp]

Ah yes
A 60 def upscale, truly broken

[urban sleet]

Dog bites hurt less now

[robust thistle]

His real upscale is his coral coast skin that shows off his washboard

[rocky pilot]

Cows have lots of protein

[left tulip]

Is he actually good btw I just managed to pull him as a 4 star defender 🥹

[sick night]

Matterhorn helped me do trials for navigator #4 vs the leader when I was a noob

[proven kelp]

People who value SA2 passive must be loving Shining with her double the amount of def buff

[rocky pilot]

AND SPEAKING OF

[sick night]

Love him, he’s such a good arts bait early game

But he’s still not worth investing a huge amount into unfortunately, too niche

[fallow sonnet]

maybe

[sick night]

You just don’t need a defender that tanks arts damage in almost all general content

But the one time I needed him he was the only cheap unit I had that would let me clear trials

[fallow sonnet]

I swear thorns carried me when I started I did make him E2 by spending money tho...

[robust thistle]

💀

[rocky pilot]

The guy who wants e2 to work does something when e2
Surprising

[fallow sonnet]

day one I remember I got shu on my first ever good banner

the good days

[urban sleet]

And you didnt spend money to raide shu?...

[left tulip]

I see, I’ll wait for cuora/gummy/bubble then😭

[pale tapir]

good for is6 ed4 that's about it

[fallow sonnet]

nah I got lucky for that

but getting Yu fucked me

[rocky pilot]

Yu is good wym

[fallow sonnet]

I should've just saved when I got shu

I'm hoping I get the new silverash in 30 pulls or the wallet will hurt

[sick night]

Yeah, Cuora is amazing for how cheap she is

Bubble is very similar

[odd sky]

also metal is back

[sick night]

Yes, I am back, I am tired of Magic the Gathering kekw

I have lots to learn about these new ops and the new is6

[limpid phoenix]

Which one for promotion next, you guys reckon. Or go dig up another 5 star or welfare or whatever, from my pile of shame

[formal shadow]

dig up your proviso

[odd sky]

uhh we can't see unraised ops

[limpid phoenix]

I meant for E2

[formal shadow]

yes. your proviso

[ivory terrace]

sort by rarity

[urban sleet]

Dig up 'how to make a krooster account'

[gray grove]

Random ahh pull she gud?

[odd sky]

no, and stop randomly pulling

[urban sleet]

I think you were told to save for upcoming limited

And no you won the wrong 1/4

[cursive maple]

wont stop pulling

sa2 drops
oh no i dont have pulls, i didnt know that he will come so soon

[zinc crown]

wont stop pulling -> sa2 drops -> oh yay i have sa2, i didnt know that he will come so soon

[ivory terrace]

win in free 24

[cursive maple]

cant wait for rng to hit them in their face!

[vale finch]

Hmm does having the original operator convey any in game advantage, like some games I spend allow you to inherit a small part of the original kit with a new alter so you get more flexibility

[ivory terrace]

not rly
they share trust % tho

[vale finch]

Ah I guess that's something at least..

[pale tapir]

alters tend to share a skill that has similar characteristics to one of the original's skills
like how silence alter has the deployable drone on s2
but it's not really a particularly useful thing

[urban sleet]

We used to get skin vouchers before

[ivory terrace]

along with rebates if u built either form
because u couldn't bring both together

[vale finch]

Oh like if u own the original, you get a skin voucher for free when u get the alter version?

[ivory terrace]

per skin u owned for the OG

[vale finch]

Wow that's pretty good

[ivory terrace]

but again, it was because u couldn't just bring them together (until like 3 years ago)
so they compensate u

[reef zinc]

Are there any operators that i should prioritize in working on right now that I got so far?

[vale finch]

Hmm let's say I have 2 sash skins, I'll get 2 vouchers the moment I get sash2?

[ivory terrace]

they stopped doing that 3 years ago or so
when texas alter came out and lifted the alter restriction

[vale finch]

Oh...

[pale tapir]

get your skill levels up
why are so many dps ops at like sl5 or sl6?

[odd sky]

/baseskills in #bot-spam

[reef zinc]

Its just the one thing I keep frgeting to lvl up... or sometimes to lazy to grind fr the materials fr

[tardy urchin]

s3m3 exu alter spotted

[rocky pilot]

I thought putting a stage on 6x auto and doomscrolling on a second device isn’t hard

[calm raptor]

Will there be a paid selector for standard ops in the shop in sa alt event?

[pale tapir]

should be, I believe it's any op in the pool older than lemon

[ancient belfry]

E2 Projekt red better than E2 phantom?

[chrome tiger]

not by a long shit

and phantom barely gets any screentime outside schizo IS low ops solves

[rocky pilot]

There is
And if remember the pool from the jp livestream is Lee until mon3tr

[gloomy fossil]

If i cleared ep3 in one day and keep that pace up, will i be able to have enough pulls for sa2 by the event

[vale finch]

Who would be the best pick? I'm kinda leaning towards ray or naruntuya

[chrome tiger]

ray scales better ig

[rocky pilot]

Ep 3: 24
Ep 4: 30
Ep 5: 34
Ep 6: 40
You can get about 10x so on after that by beating all the stages as well as challenge mode

Also how many pulls do have you have rn?

[rain night]

i would say both ( i use both )

oh its a choice
then ray

[vale finch]

Ouh ok...I was kinda leaning towards her anw

[worldly fern]

hello, can someone explain what is a drill plan and how do i use it?? I cant figure it out

[rocky pilot]

Practice (drill plan got removed but you can still do practice on any stage to complete it)

[worldly fern]

ahhh, lmaoo, thanks

[shadow bay]

not removed, they just make it limitless

[left tulip]

The paid selector is 30 bucks right

[rocky pilot]

And on a second note do not get taxes
Just stop when they ask you to put 2 operators as support units

[left tulip]

Soooooo priceyyyy

[rocky pilot]

You get what you pay for

[worldly fern]

ohh, may i know why?

[left tulip]

I will get ray on gold certs eventually ig

[left tulip]

It requires you to upgrade parts of base which would make you unable to invest as much into the left side of it

And those upgrades are irreversible

[rocky pilot]

You cannot downgrade reception room (have to level up to put more than 1 operator in support page) which ruins the maximum amount of resources you can get from base

At least for dormitories you can downgrade and get the materials back but at the cost of the drones being gone but they recover so

[calm raptor]

How does gg compare to lapalt?

[robust thistle]

slightly worse

[calm raptor]

In uhh what metric

[median fable]

GG does like half the dmg or sth like that

[left tulip]

Wayyyy less dmg and doesn’t have some of the effects

[robust thistle]

all

[pale tapir]

lapptop powercrept her in everything except cuteness

[shadow bay]

but but...

my laptop sometimes attack immovable objects and just stay there

[median fable]

GG does more dmg at 90 res though

[robust thistle]

the only thing GG has going better is she has better skill cycle

[left tulip]

She’s badass asf tho

[lyric lagoon]

powercrept her in being an actual dog

[median fable]

don't trust the bot so much but yeah

[rocky pilot]

Who even has 90 res again

[robust thistle]

pat

[pale tapir]

who is reaching for burnslop caster when facing 90 res enemy tho

[earnest jay]

Is this 6 star good? I just lost 50/50 to them 🥀

[robust thistle]

no

[rocky pilot]

Oh my god…
My condolences

[shadow bay]

ehh eben kinda whatever in general

[robust thistle]

who are you losing 50/50 to anyways, theres no event banner

[rocky pilot]

He’s the only 6* in his archetype but is just 🚮

[shadow bay]

he have funny gimmick but rarely bought upon coz... he is gimmicky

[earnest jay]

[median fable]

why are you even pulling mate 🥹

[royal swan]

Bro pulled on jessicat

[rocky pilot]

Yeah who did you even pull to begin with???

[robust thistle]

is it really 50/50 when theres like 3 outcomes

[royal swan]

25-75 if they're aiming for a specific one or 50-50 if either would do

[shadow bay]

its 50 50 on surface atleast

[odd sky]

either you get it or you don't

[pale tapir]

yeah you either get what you want or you don't

[left tulip]

I will be glad to lose my 50/50 on sash2 banner and get one of the off rate ups

[rocky pilot]

I don’t

[shadow bay]

okay understood... enjoy ur muelsyse

[royal swan]

There's no 50-50 on SA alter, its 70-30 and u can hit the same eben they just hit as well

[robust thistle]

I dont think thats how that works

[rocky pilot]

Wanted hoshi2 but got gavial2 instead

[left tulip]

Yuh yuh dw ive seen the odds i was messing 🙏

[robust thistle]

its 35/35/30 and the offrate limited is in the 30 among a long list of ops

[rocky pilot]

Why

[lyric lagoon]

and bro is broke

[robust thistle]

thats not an event banner

[earnest jay]

looked cool

[lyric lagoon]

clinging on with literal hopes and dreams

[rocky pilot]

So you like gun violence I assume

[pale tapir]

if your name isn't Jessicat simp I love jessica brynley jessica alter alter trust you should not be pulling on that banner

[shadow bay]

oh mumu dont even have weight huh

[left tulip]

Nop

[earnest jay]

[odd sky]

mumu lost her weight this banner

[median fable]

tip as an arknights educator, you'd rather ask before pulling and not after
we'll soon have Sash2 and Pram2 banner which are way better

[rocky pilot]

Good thing I am a simp for a welfare so I don’t need to pull

[royal swan]

Shouldn't be pulling either way, cert shop is a thing

[shadow bay]

simping is good if he is rich

[pale tapir]

cert shop doesn't get u pot6
unless u wait a couple years

[left tulip]

Welfare simp which welfare do I get

[median fable]

he's not rich though 🥹

[rocky pilot]

A umamusume

[shadow bay]

indeed thats also the problem 🥹

[formal shadow]

that would be shileds downstairs

[earnest jay]

[rocky pilot]

And by I mean by uma I mean grani

[shadow bay]

all the advices btw here based on meta and effeciency

if u have other pulling criterion u prefer to follow, do that... just dont cry or something yeyey

[earnest jay]

So do i just restart n save my rrs?

[tight fossil]

are there any skills worth m3ing for these operators?

[shadow bay]

resta-- what?

[earnest jay]

[rain night]

what site ?

[left tulip]

I went to read, she does look cool but………

[robust thistle]

lots

[formal shadow]

mly s3 hoshi s3 trag s2 ceob s2 ulp s3

[rocky pilot]

Exactly

[odd sky]

is your acc like super new or smt?

[rocky pilot]

I can hear mlynar crying and I don’t even have him

[royal swan]

It's from a video

[pale tapir]

defense focused vanguard that relies on killing enemies to generate dp

[earnest jay]

Made it 5 days ago but only been playing since yesterday

[rain night]

ah alr

[earnest jay]

[odd sky]

i guess bro, 40 pulls is a lot, and it's only a day of progress

[left tulip]

Damn ceobe looks super cool

[royal swan]

If u don't mind rerolling+ waiting, I'd recommend rerolling post the update on the 14th for silverash alter

[rocky pilot]

I think you mean cute

[earnest jay]

Okay

[rocky pilot]

I see nobody use eben at all for a good reason

[left tulip]

Fair enough ig that too, "really hot knives","really heavy spear" are funny skill names

I want her

[royal swan]

He gets used in funny boss one shot videos

[shadow bay]

do u qualify one shotting boss a good reason?

[rocky pilot]

Yea that I only see him once because someone has a generational grudge against the boss in ato

[pale tapir]

good thing she's in recruitment

[royal swan]

You're probably just new, he gets used on every boss for the funny showcase, even on prts.

Not good ofc but it's funny

[rocky pilot]

I am just stupid

[left tulip]

Actually I remember seeing a high cc on yt run using ceobeiirc, is she good

[formal shadow]

niche. very useful niche

[royal swan]

Ccb3 probably, good in her niche

[left tulip]

And what’s the niche?

[odd sky]

her dmg scales with enemy def

[royal swan]

Fun fact even if ur acc owns literally every char except her, u cannot kill one of the RA CC bosses after a certain day count

[rocky pilot]

Also her s2 priorities the highest def enemy, so

[left tulip]

I didn’t touch RA yet… I eventually will

[still surge]

Is nymph worth it to pour recorces into if I already have logos and ebonholtz built to E2?

[rocky pilot]

I find it stupid that two casters I like are also the only two casters that deals both arts and phy damage

[royal swan]

Prob ch3n also works idk, this is based on EN

[undone portal]

nymph is less for damage and more for single target stall. the bigger question for her is whether you have tragodia

[still surge]

Nah I want him tho. Don’t know when his rerun is

He is the funny cat dude right?

[undone portal]

nymph isnt completely obsolesced by tragodia since her stall is easier to keep consistent (she just needs sp for her s2, trag wants lowered rdp time for cat) but in the vast majority of cases he can cover for what she does

[rocky pilot]

Okay I want to ask when irene was released how relevant or good was she

[robust thistle]

not good since release

[undone portal]

she was comfortably just okay on debut
fell off a cliff when degenbrecher released
got an is mod and carved herself a usable niche as an area control bot with levitate

[royal swan]

https://fxtwitter.com/AK_CN_Shitpost/status/2029405389729751329 I assume during stultifera Navis, u can check the wiki but she's about to hit the kernel pool (already has in CN)

AK_CN_InfoDump (@AK_CN_Shitpost)

[rocky pilot]

Damn so I made the right choice not returning to play arknights during that time

[royal swan]

I mean stultifera navis was like years ago, if u pulled her at that point, it'd be cuz u were pulling on the limited so it would be fine?

[sleek finch]

when irene was released, people were exciting about new toy syndrome
and she is commonly used with buff like warfarin and nuke general content enemies (because high end contents dont exist yet)

most people saw irene like that because of something known as "content creators" tend to make videos showing the good, and not the bad

4 second of glory follow up with 30s of doing nothing

[undone portal]

atk% scale skill pairs well with warfarin. fork found in kitchen. what else is new

[sleek finch]

if you ignore the 95% of the time she does nothing, she is decent

yeah idk even if you can use irene skill nowadays
that shit is like 30k total dmg lmao

[slender girder]

I only just bought GG and Horn with gold certs, why are they going to Kernel already

[rocky pilot]

One video has always convinced me not going back to play arknights
It was the only video showing me the “bad” part and not the good part

[urban sleet]

Thats on you for buying mid ops with gold certs

[undone portal]

in modern contexts, now that irene is mod exists, shes got a weird executor/ambusher hybrid playstyle going on now and asks other ops be deployed in her range a la mantra s3
not meta-defining for is the way mizuki/angelina are but shes back to being usable

[slender girder]

They're actually among the strongest ones that I didn't already have. I was gonna buy them anyway because I like them. But if I get the Top OP tag with one of them next week it'd be unfortunate lol

[undone portal]

kernel pool and recruit pool arent the same thing
also cn just got this, 6months or so before this reflects in global

[copper charm]

Are any of the banners running worth chat?

[slender girder]

Ohh. Right I forgot about that. I'm less upset then haha

[urban sleet]

Or you could've just saved them to get actually good ops instead of going for ops that feel good only for newbies

[urban sleet]

Save for limited baner

[undone portal]

nope. wait for silveralt/pramalt in less than a week

[rocky pilot]

Right brings me to my second question
How hard was talulah during 2021-2022

[undone portal]

talulah was never hard, nightingale is a launch unit

[random kestrel]

not hard

[copper charm]

Gotcha. I have quite saved up (60k) hopefully i dont get shafted

[urban sleet]

Filtered players for sure (she does even today despite modwrn ops shitting on the stage)

Amd by that I mean yeah ppl still have skill issur

[rocky pilot]

So I overestimated H8-4

[undone portal]

the skill issue never went away
if anything its gotten worse

[urban sleet]

Borrow haruka and call it a day

Bit yeah back in 2021-22 it was either nightingale or gravel bait

[slender girder]

I have plenty of good ops already and lots of pulls saved up. The two were filling in niches I was missing like invis reveal and Yu burn combo

[rocky pilot]

I mean my ass was like 11 years old something watching that video back then so

I just watched it “I am not doing this shit” and proceed to not play arknights ever again until this year

[pseudo flume]

Actual Fetus wao

[random kestrel]

story mode never hard to begin with even with simulation or something

[undone portal]

main story strategic simulation is pretty clawless yea

[urban sleet]

Needing an operator for invis reveal is crazy but sure do what you want, very bad use of gold certs but your account your chojce
Certing gg for yu combo is also but yea your choice

[undone portal]

holographic combat matrix on the other hand

[random kestrel]

it change when huge debuff/risk come into it

[rocky pilot]

But I am in my final high school year

[pseudo flume]

Tbh the whiners on the Google Playstore Comment Section make it sound like Ch 2 is some unbalanced shit that can't be passed without 💳 a few hundred $

I can't believe those people smh, ch 2 is introductory and they are failing miserably on it

[random kestrel]

holographic is how HG please player base
personally against it

[rocky pilot]

Wait what chapter is W the boss again

[random kestrel]

just make a dedicated game mode for that

[urban sleet]

This makes the strewmer who struggled on ch 2 tutorials cuz they couldnt borrow wis seem normal

[pseudo flume]

Istg its basic tutorials

[undone portal]

i have to periodically remind myself a good majority of players actively avoid reading like the plague

[native cargo]

how do i see the prep materials for future ops

[urban sleet]

Krooster

[undone portal]

check wiki, use krooster planner,

[rocky pilot]

I am a victim of the shaw tutorial with metal crab

[pseudo flume]

Look into CN News and look into Krooster or Wiki on what to prep afterwards

[pseudo flume]

Isn't that just the tutorial that requires placing Shaw on the High Tile

Or the Extra Push Tile

[rocky pilot]

Yeah

[random kestrel]

lol
mean this game is not for them
complaining its p2w game... typical f2p players type of behaviour

[rocky pilot]

I was confused why before I just
“Why is there a hole”
“Oh”

[pseudo flume]

Don't rope me in with those bozos smh

[undone portal]

idk i think people who are used to playing gachas f2p learn to be resourceful
its the people who spend on other gachas and enter arknights with a self-fulfilling prophecy that theyll have to do the same here

[pseudo flume]

Anyways even with money you'll still struggle if you can't place right

[rocky pilot]

Can confirm

[robust thistle]

TL;DR
money cant fix stupid
