[thorny edge]

popsicle

[vale dock]

[modern ivy]

at least thats something thank you

[humble nova]

I cant see info on zima alter online, but does she go just as well as ulpianus with sash2?

[native cargo]

Is horn good phys dps

[winter crystal]

Funny horn moment in IS where enough attack speed = she wastes bullets bc the mortars take time to travel

[limpid yarrow]

not that you can't still use her there tbh

[pine plover]

self kill to proc her on death talent

[limpid yarrow]

disillusion hjg the greatest horn fan to ever do it
usable but only if you're a big horn fan

[humble nova]

I KNEW IT, yall KNOW yall KNOW IT

just admit, dont make me suffer with this, I cant admit it myself

[winter crystal]

Wut

[humble nova]

nvm maybe im too paranoid

[coarse notch]

[quick jolt]

#help schizoposting

[glass mango]

Wanna DM to have a peace of mind?

[copper oracle]

concerned

[humble nova]

sorry sorry, I genuinely thought yall had something on me. dont mind me

[winter crystal]

We do now 📸

[reef sparrow]

from gameplay help to psychological help

[cursive maple]

more like gay makeout

[wraith sentinel]

I like her a lot, she's decent-ish I find. Range can be handy in some scenarios.

[glass mango]

Gay makeout and aftercare

[pine plover]

at the speed of light eee

[thorny edge]

😭 what

[humble nova]

I cant find the part where pram2 is healing herself or im blind

[glacial bolt]

how long it take to get from level 3 to max level

[wraith sentinel]

SilverAsh's Talent maybe?

[copper oracle]

her talent gives her a free revive

[limpid yarrow]

no one tell him about When deployed, [Kjerag] operators are Immune to Freeze, gain +80 (+20) DEF and recover 2% (+0.5%) of Max HP per second.

[wraith sentinel]

Over a year.

[humble nova]

Oh it is sash2's talent

[quick jolt]

without monthly card like 2-2.5 years

[copper oracle]

just learn the kit of every op omg smh

[glacial bolt]

💔

[mild yacht]

As fast as the speed of swipe.

[humble nova]

I forgottt 🥺 I was watching a video and I was like "huh" why is she healing herself

[copper oracle]

[glacial bolt]

how long have yall spent on this game

[quick jolt]

im lvl 118 after 2.5 years, missed 3 months total, and have only ever gotten 4 monthly cards excluding free ones

[odd sky]

a minute

[humble nova]

a second

[severe crypt]

Wow baby player

[vivid yew]

Hello, i made a new account after i lost the old one. Is it worth to get module for La Pluma, Tequilla, Shamare, Mantra, Ray, and Mountain?

[copper oracle]

like in game? prolly more than 5k hours already

[humble nova]

Mantra and Ray yes

[limpid yarrow]

no no no yes yes no

[wraith sentinel]

Almost a year, without any days missed. Level 93 currently.

[coarse notch]

probaly well over 1k hrs without counting autodeploying

[mild yacht]

The days long gone of autodeploy anni and waiting fifteen minutes to do it over again.

[copper oracle]

cringe

[odd sky]

does yostar track how many hours we play

[quick jolt]

probably but wont show us

[wraith sentinel]

Probably.

[mild yacht]

They did a few years ago, but that site's dead ever since they changed the login method.

[gritty bluff]

what was the day 1 prospective login reward? i know the senior skill training pack, but whats the other thing

[odd sky]

profile thing

[quick jolt]

recruitment permits and expedited plans

[mild yacht]

They do still give random metrics for 'most X' or 'highest Y' or 'longest Z'.

[vivid yew]

Shamare S2?

[copper oracle]

do we have highest time wasted clearing a single stage metric

[mild yacht]

You mean the time someone spent almost a year on one IS run?

[wraith sentinel]

It's good yeah.

[slate ridge]

Wouldnt that just be the ones still running vgless anni21 or whatever it was that takes like 4 years

[copper oracle]

no it has to be in stage so like actually in battle with ops and shit

like u can permastall stages with kafka weedy to push and not dmg enemies

[frosty flame]

no rewards from annihilation ever disappear except what you miss from the weekly orundum rewards right?

[mild yacht]

You really wanna bring back Poo, don't you?

[real hare]

will top up refresh in 5 days

[quick jolt]

can do it with raidian s2 too

[copper oracle]

poo will be short vs whatever the schizos can do 🤫

[wraith sentinel]

Or enemies that can heal themselves.

[frosty flame]

ty

[slate ridge]

Anni dp gen is 1 dp per 11 days before engine update so its whoever still running anni before engine update would count since running vgless until enough dp to setup squad

[ancient belfry]

Chen alter alter or spark Texas alter?

[copper oracle]

how do u think ppl figured out that the new duration for infintie skills is 25 hours ‼️

[mild yacht]

They added the 'storm' to gamble mode because of the potential for mobs to cancel each other out so long, the stage never ends.

[quick jolt]

context? in what situation are you choosing between them

[wraith sentinel]

Don't spark Texas unless it's for waifu reasons.

[ancient belfry]

I want nuke specialist FRD. smooth brain gaming

[copper oracle]

texas isnt a nuke

[slender temple]

Trago... Oh wait

[winter crystal]

Ok well exu2

[wraith sentinel]

Crownslayer is coming back soon and she's decent.

[formal shadow]

they played RA danger mode

[quick jolt]

if you are doing 300 pulls you're almost guaranteed to get chen3 anyway

[mild yacht]

-# That's just NTR.

[ancient belfry]

yeah, sadly he's on my second account

[neat acorn]

Hm

[vague field]

What does E1, sl 7 and max mean? First time playing them game

[ancient wind]

Wait, so we got Wis’Adel and Lappy Alter in this upcoming banner?

[winter crystal]

Omfg not this website again

[vivid yew]

What’s the general consensus on Zima Alter?

[copper oracle]

e1 sl7 means half built unit
elite 1 skill lv 7

[formal shadow]

arknights tierlist mentioned

[wraith sentinel]

E1 is Elite 1, SL7 is Skill Level 7. Max means Elite 2 Level max with Masters.

[quick jolt]

as offrates. dont expect to be getting them without doing 300 for spark, the chances are ridiculously low

[ancient belfry]

chen3 is still 3 months away i think, i mean in salt banner should i spark

[ancient wind]

Ah, ok

So what about Sashalter?

[frosty flame]

35%

[quick jolt]

hes main rateup split with pram

[frosty flame]

of 6 stars should be sashalter iirc

[copper oracle]

if ur playing meta, texas sucks she doesnt do shit

[quick jolt]

if you're asking here, sparking for anyone on any banner is never worth it

[jovial urchin]

What's the old one? I remembered it being much lower

[copper oracle]

30 minutes iirc (at 2x spd)

[ancient belfry]

even wis?

[neat acorn]

Where did you even get this

[ancient wind]

Been saving up pulls for shit like this.

Should I clear out all the gold cert pulls or save?

[quick jolt]

yeah. those 300 pulls going to 4-6 different banners will make a bigger difference than 1 wisadel

[wraith sentinel]

Buy only after you pull, might get luckier than expected and get to save your Distinctions.

[copper oracle]

shes fine but she has more competition now and isnt rly ahead of others

[winter crystal]

Get them if you need them and have 258 gold certs or save

[jovial urchin]

OBJECTION

[limpid yarrow]

comfy afk unit

[drifting marlin]

Hey guys, which 5* OP should i promote to E2?

[copper oracle]

bro i sparked texas then i barely use her 💢

[quick jolt]

and majority of the 6stars youll be pulling will be dupes of salter/pramalt. dupes arent very great

[ancient belfry]

whats the recommended number of pulls? around 150?

So I can have 300 pulls during wang?

I have about 270 now

[copper oracle]

wym salt dupes r great

[quick jolt]

150 is a good amount and around the average youll need

[frosty flame]

258 gets you 38 pulls?

[real hare]

will top up refresh or na

[copper oracle]

vg dupes r good bro 🚬

[reef sparrow]

might as well save

[ancient wind]

Sashalter is a vanguard…?

[wraith sentinel]

Yes.

[quick jolt]

salter dupes are not worth for a probably very casual player who wouldnt be asking for advice here if they needed them

[vale dock]

Yes

[ancient belfry]

However, it's better to save 180 first and dont touch it as you accumulate another 258.

[ancient wind]

That seems underwhelming

[drifting marlin]

Any good 5* OP coming up later? Which banner?

[wraith sentinel]

Strategist Vanguard, he's very good. A lot of utility and damage.

[pale tapir]

unless you’re starved for dps save it until u get proviso or something

[quick jolt]

but yes i didnt mean his dupes are bad in general ofc

[slender temple]

Have you seen his showcase or at least READ his kits

[frosty flame]

I really hope I lose the 70%30 atleast once on rateups, me want the other limiteds

[pale tapir]

reading is a lot to expect of us cmon

[ancient wind]

No, but he’s a vanguard.

Aren’t they designed to… leave after a while?

[sick holly]

Is gummy worth lvl. 70ing?

[neat acorn]

[wraith sentinel]

E1 is usually enough I believe.

[frosty flame]

you can just borrow one if its for IS starting squad I believe

[winter crystal]

No cuora before her if anything (saying that bc you wanted to use it on cuora earlier)

[reef sparrow]

nothing really, just there nothing worth in that 5* roster of yours atm

[copper oracle]

just play better and become a non casual player

[ancient belfry]

I just borrow. dont want to waste resources

[quick jolt]

ur so right

[limpid yarrow]

tbh vanguard dupes you feel them more because you need to open with

[copper oracle]

no c*suals plz

[quick jolt]

i will now be advising people to do 300 pulls for pots

[jovial urchin]

Imagine being so broke you can't max out E1 gummy :clueless:

[rocky pilot]

I have seen lots of people with a gummy for borrow when playing is

[wraith sentinel]

Royal Tokens.

[copper oracle]

need more whales in EN anyway, this server so poor compared to CN/JP

[spare tide]

Who else limited ops available in upcoming SA sibling banner?

[limpid yarrow]

looking at EN pickrates for IS you'd think they just stopped pulling altogehter after like 2020 💀

[rocky pilot]

If I don’t get a pot6 wang with 300 pulls I am smithing you down

[winter crystal]

Do you have click?

[sick holly]

Yes

[spare tide]

Probably?

[ancient belfry]

Im expecting several 6 stars to come home this salt banner, I only have 500k LMD

[copper oracle]

sorry EN is full of poor ppl who cant pull

[wraith sentinel]

https://arknights.wiki.gg/wiki/Operator/Limited#Celebration

[stark arch]

Would yall recommend pulling on the joint operation? or should I save for a future banner

[lyric lagoon]

pins -> roadless camelot -> limited banner pool

[copper oracle]

whos in joint ops rn

[neat acorn]

Is that exu2 I see

[frosty flame]

I think itd be all of these right?

[rocky pilot]

Oh no

[limpid yarrow]

i can't wait for newest banner goldenglow to come out

[wraith sentinel]

Excluding Exusiai, she'll only appear next Celebration.

[ancient belfry]

During Wang, are Wis, Lapalt will be offrates too?

[lyric lagoon]

not including exu2 (yet)

[quick jolt]

naran lemuen degen hool

[vale dock]

No

[wraith sentinel]

Only Sui operators.

[slender temple]

Suis banner only has sui siblings

[lyric lagoon]

not including exu2

[limpid yarrow]

(jp stats for reference)

[copper oracle]

see this is why myrtle gladia saria and bagpoop is there, theyre free units ‼️

[quick jolt]

different limited pool. theres 3 types of limited banners

[ancient belfry]

but chen

[rocky pilot]

They don’t appear whatsoever when is the Sui siblings turn

[lyric lagoon]

ch3n is a standard operator

[wraith sentinel]

She's a standard operator getting her debut then.

[copper oracle]

EN poor af

[frosty flame]

why?

[stark arch]

Narantuya and Degenbrecher which I thinka re cool

[neat acorn]

You would think this is EN

[slender temple]

Sorry, "as a limited"

[winter crystal]

Honestly whoever you end up using the ticket on is fine, you said earlier about cuora and there’s click. 4 stars at lvl 70 is what it is. The times you bring them into IS you generally won’t be promoting them

[limpid yarrow]

EN actually just never pulls its so over
4/5 top picks are free

[copper oracle]

meh theyre not that good, i would just save

[lyric lagoon]

limiteds only become part of the off-rate pool around a year after their debut

[wraith sentinel]

Limited operators only appear a year after release again, Celebration banners happen twice a year.

[frosty flame]

ooooooh

[wraith sentinel]

Three types of seasonal limited banners; Celebration > Carnival (Summer-ish) > Celebration > Festival (Sui).

[languid swallow]

There are limited banner series 🚬

[rocky pilot]

I feel like I am watching a caveman discovering fire

[ancient belfry]

well so this is the only chance I can get Lapalt, Skalt, or Wisalt.

It's hard to choose between guaranteeing Chen3 or one of the three above

[robust thistle]

why do you have to go 300

[wraith sentinel]

You can wait until the banner after that.

[quick jolt]

its not, dont bother sparking. just get silveralt and pram then stop

[copper oracle]

chen alter alter sucks (terms and conditions apply)

[robust thistle]

you can just get pramalt/SAlter then wait for wang banner

[languid swallow]

Just say Wis, the original was W 😭

[limpid yarrow]

30 page privacy policy

[pale tapir]

can’t decide, franka s2 or one of the bandori members? if you say save it I will e2 projekt red and m3 her s1

[frosty flame]

the next orienteering after sashalt looks kinda fire

[robust thistle]

save it

[wraith sentinel]

(Shamare S2 good.)

[limpid yarrow]

shamare s2 good

[sick holly]

Ah okay in that case I’d probably just want to pick someone who’d be most useful outside of IS then are there any good candidates?

[copper oracle]

surfer s1

[winter crystal]

Assuming nothing changes you mean

[cyan owl]

Meh, you can wait, or Shamare S2 maybe.
Surfer is also a good option, any skills.

[frosty flame]

any of ulpianus, tragodia or narantuya/mlynar would be cool

[pale tapir]

what does tila s1 m3 do

[neat acorn]

Gamble everything or suffer 3 months from now gambling

[frosty flame]

thats true

[winter crystal]

Cuora click, depends on what you need I guess.

[copper oracle]

surfer s2 sucks, i have it m3 and it sucks

[pale tapir]

I’m aware lol
what benefit does mastery on her s1 provide tho

[lyric lagoon]

surfer s2 tryna mimic a fraction of ines s2's power

[jovial urchin]

Not that fire, it does suck

[copper oracle]

+skill duration

[lyric lagoon]

oh they fixed wiki

[limpid yarrow]

s2 play around crystal mystery fr

[quick jolt]

can they unfix it

[cyan owl]

Cutter is decent-ish (up for speculation).
Else, Cuora and Click are 2 wonderful options.
Gravel also.

[winter crystal]

Ah forgot there’s gravel she’s great (still prob using it on click or Cuora tho)

[pale tapir]

thanks
I’ll just give it to shammy extra skill duration sounds boring

[jovial urchin]

Cutter is just alright in IS imo, I pick Utage or Humus

[limpid yarrow]

many are sleeping on beehunter

[robust thistle]

because dodge tank is cringe

[wraith sentinel]

She dodged all the attention.

[cyan owl]

“Just dodge it.” - Beehunter.

[neat acorn]

Just parry it

[pale tapir]

you can pry assclown s3 mody out of my cold dead hands

[cyan owl]

Just tank it.

[neat acorn]

Is there a parry mechanic in a character?

[robust thistle]

yes

[wraith sentinel]

Noir Corne Alter?

[cyan owl]

Rathalos (namely Noir Corne alt).

Also you have Akafuyu S2 I guess?

[robust thistle]

akafuyu

[cyan owl]

Many thanks.

[inland osprey]

i recommend you invest on defender , as you progress through main story you will realize how important those rock defender really is , damn even my saria 70 e2 wouldnt cut it anymore , esp on cp10 holy

[robust thistle]

and no akafuyu doesnt have 'parry'

[lyric lagoon]

rathalos is the name of the gear noir wears, which is subsequently named after the monster the gear is made out of...

[cyan owl]

She has a shield I suppose(?)

[robust thistle]

a lot of ops have shields

[winter crystal]

Fyi Frederic is wonder what she should use her lvl 70 4star ticket on

[wraith sentinel]

Roberta gaming.

[cyan owl]

Fair point.

[pale tapir]

I remember it as akafuyu like red winter

[jovial urchin]

My goat roberta has plenty of shields

[rocky pilot]

Where is the one r6 guy with a shield but isn’t a defender

[cyan owl]

Fuze.

[limpid yarrow]

true fuze is an attacker

[fathom hawk]

if i do this do i get anything

[robust thistle]

module mats

[cyan owl]

Centurion, to be precise.

[limpid yarrow]

(maxed)

[fathom hawk]

even tho the thing above begin is maxed?

[jovial urchin]

Doesn't tachanka also have a shield? (Or am I thinking of R6 Tachanka)

[robust thistle]

attacker is his 'class' in R6S

[wraith sentinel]

Whislash also gives (Physical) Shields with her Module.

[ancient lintel]

You do them for mod blocks ye
They only give mod blocks for first clear tho, but mod blocks are hard to come by so ya know

[wraith sentinel]

Oh hey, Whislash is another operator who gains a new Talent with her Module, one more to the list.

[fathom hawk]

even tho the weekly thing is maxed right

[robust thistle]

I mean you already know its maxed

[ancient lintel]

Like your only consistent source of mod blocks are red certs and weeklies lol

[robust thistle]

why would you assume you will get something if you hit the periodic limit cap

[fathom hawk]

so i won’t get anything?

[ancient lintel]

Which is equivalent to like what 8 mod blocks per month?

[robust thistle]

well duh

[cyan owl]

Excluding events, that is.

[fathom hawk]

ok thx… u did say i’d get module mats at first so i was confusdd

[ancient lintel]

Excluding those ye

[robust thistle]

you will get module mats from that mode yes

[fathom hawk]

ok yeah

[inland osprey]

so which ops from all of those are getting the most out of their modules, or which 1 is worth investing their module on?

[robust thistle]

show your krooster acc

[lyric lagoon]

3 IS merchants on the team (and one schizo IS merchant)

[sterile stag]

https://www.krooster.com/u/tiny-mauve-tiger-92et

Who should i get from a 30$ 6* selector? I'm thinking either Mlynar or Ines but maybe there are better options

[robust thistle]

all those ops fall under mid/niche

[ancient lintel]

Sash n surtr I guess? Kal and cheeto IS mod if ur into IS

[rocky pilot]

I am assuming this is a very old account

[light sparrow]

are any of the operators in the purchase certificates gud?

[robust thistle]

ask again after the selector is here and youre done pulling

[inland osprey]

https://www.krooster.com/u/bright-brown-shu-38mh
here you go

[rocky pilot]

Yup I am correct 👏

[ancient lintel]

If trag's in that selector I'd recommend going for him

[inland osprey]

i just so confused on those is mode 😅

[lyric lagoon]

ethan for battle, quartz and diamante for base slaving (you don't need to get dupes)

[inland osprey]

well im trying to catch up for a while now after 3 years away from the game

[ancient lintel]

Did u just came back after like 2 years?

[robust thistle]

e1 purestream and roberta
chalter modY3
kal mizuki cheeto modA3
surtr mod2
SA mod3

thats it

[hidden nacelle]

its up to monst2r

[light sparrow]

What about philae
she looks cool

[hidden nacelle]

she is REALLY pretty but uh not great

[sterile stag]

He is not i think

[ancient lintel]

Uma unc or ulpi would be the best ones in it then I think

[rocky pilot]

Is mod means they only take effect if you use them on is mode
Which is this

https://arknights.wiki.gg/wiki/Integrated_Strategies

[inland osprey]

3 years to be exact , like the last banner before i went offline are nian i think

[hidden nacelle]

ascalon ines exist too

[lyric lagoon]

I can't believe they released the IS mini-boss mon2tr as a playable operator

[inland osprey]

i kinda gets it , but the whole gamemode just made me even more confused 😅

[light sparrow]

aight thx

[hidden nacelle]

thats more than 3 if nian
even nian rerun was old

[wraith sentinel]

(Contrail can be funny for Skyranger stuff too.)

[ancient lintel]

Eh I'd value mylnar and ulpi higher than ines or ascalon
Plus you dont have to get ines if ur planing on rolling for sash2

[robust thistle]

everyone is confused playing a new game mode, because you have to learn

[inland osprey]

neat , thz for the input mate

[hidden nacelle]

play for like half an hour youll get it

[rocky pilot]

Get op, get relics, went through floors, get ending

[ancient lintel]

IS is the mode that most people play ye

[hidden nacelle]

erm actually story mode is 100% of players have played story mode

[ancient lintel]

Rec alg enjoyers dont exists
They're impostors

[inland osprey]

well tbf someone here told me its similar to rouge like rpg , whcih i hated 😅

[robust thistle]

wouldnt know if you havent tried it

[lyric lagoon]

I know we'll be eating these words once ra3 comes out...

[rocky pilot]

Who tf said that to begin with

[ancient lintel]

just play endfield smh my head

[inland osprey]

i forgot who , but it def someone here

[robust thistle]

if youre not playing IS then you can skip kal mizuki and cheeto mod

[hidden nacelle]

what does snow hunter do

[sterile stag]

They're reptiloids, no human would ever enjoy that

[rocky pilot]

But kinda yes and no since they affect what relics you wanna get for your operators plus which route and ending you wanna get

[ancient lintel]

I mean it's rougelike alr

[hidden nacelle]

erm its a roguelite

[rocky pilot]

Is just arknights with side quests to do for about 30 mins to 1 hour

[inland osprey]

ive tried it before a couple times , but couldnt last through enough , i guess my rooster are just weak

[robust thistle]

youre just new and you dont know anything about the mode

[ancient lintel]

Your roster is very lack luster by today standards ye

[robust thistle]

its a roguelite, youre expected to fail

[rocky pilot]

Those old ops won’t cut it

[inland osprey]

well after my sanity gone , all im doin is just spam farming ra 😂

[ancient lintel]

You can still clear content just fine but ya know it'll require less brain power if you get your hands on u know what I mean

[rocky pilot]

Wisadel fentanyl

[calm raptor]

Is ulpi worth getting the paid selector ticket for in the sash event?

[robust thistle]

no

[ancient lintel]

Wang c*caine

[rocky pilot]

Isn’t ulpi out for gold cert sooner or later again?

[limpid yarrow]

very later

[inland osprey]

tbf i do like nuking stuff to oblivion , but sometimes some stages required a bit of brain cell 😅

[ancient lintel]

In a few months from now if we're on schedule

[calm raptor]

Is there anyone like worth aiming for there (this is my current default squad for context)

[robust thistle]

no

you have very weird raising priorities

[calm raptor]

Not even monster?

[inland osprey]

i really hope so , man my abyssal squad worth jack shit without him

[robust thistle]

lemuen mlynar and exy wants their mod more than tragodia

[lyric lagoon]

how much y'all wanna bet we're gonna get people spamming if ast2 is worth raising

[rocky pilot]

My debit card

[robust thistle]

you have haruka, why do you need mon3tr

[slender temple]

Finish your Exu2 Lemon and Mlynar for the love of god

[ancient lintel]

Same amount as those who ask "is miksa worth raising"

Maybe shileds should make a pin about ast2

[lyric lagoon]

and their next lines are "I don't have ch13 unlocked"

[formal shadow]

"I'm only at chapter 7"

[calm raptor]

I thought her main selling point was the uhh atk speed and true damage niche

[robust thistle]

you dont look like you need those

[formal shadow]

mon3tr is nice but not necessary

[calm raptor]

I’m on it, i just got back from the game after a while so i kinda forgot all of my priorities

[ancient lintel]

Do you need multi target true dmg? Or do you want to play IS outside of IS? If yes then ye get mon3tr, but if ur looking for generic healing haruka alone is enough

[rocky pilot]

Well that’s the thing nobody’s using abyssal squad nowadays

[formal shadow]

normal people don't use abyssal squad, even back in the day

[fallow hinge]

I know Sash and Pramanix alter have their uses, but I also noticed there's Astgenne alter. Is she not as useful as the two?

[ancient lintel]

Now I mostly use monmon for afk
And maybe for IS6 DLC2 for chongus as well

[robust thistle]

shes welfare, thats a red flag

[hoary ruin]

She's not a banner unit, and free so...yeah not as good.

[formal shadow]

forgetable

[inland osprey]

so what are the current meta nowdays, man im like an old boomer among all these gen z circle

[formal shadow]

abyssal squad was never meta

[robust thistle]

the meta is whatever deals the most damage

[calm raptor]

Is there like anyone worth getting here, (i figured imma get it anyways just because i can guarantee a good six star at least?)

[ancient lintel]

The meta is just damage lol

[inland osprey]

well im saving all i could for sash2 banner hoping for something new

[fallow hinge]

ahhh okay that's why, that's nice I can just focus on the two

[formal shadow]

mon3tr just being randomly in english

[hoary ruin]

Damage. Lots of it. No need for much else when the enemies die seconds after entering the range of your ops.

[rocky pilot]

And add in a haruka if you want healing

[robust thistle]

youre asking the same question like 3 times, the answer is still the same

[vivid yew]

What’s the general consensus on Zima Alter?

[hoary ruin]

Is this the $30 selector?

[rocky pilot]

Yea

[ancient lintel]

You have 2 options
Consistent 30% sanc or 60% sanc in like 40s

[hoary ruin]

Best picks here are Mylinar, Ines, Ascalon, Mont3r or Ulpi, depending on who you don't own already.

If you own none, I would probaly pick Mylinar since he's the strongest DPS on the selector.

[rocky pilot]

Also is it weird that I find it weird mlynar can hit flying

[robust thistle]

they already have mlynar

[ancient lintel]

I mean lots of people are hitting stuff they shouldnt be hitting lol

Waltuh's a pretty good example of that XD

[vague wasp]

Keep this dood from executor alter

[rocky pilot]

So that’s the power of reading newspapers huh

[hoary ruin]

Though the best advice regarding the selector is....

DO your pulls on SA2's banner FIRST. That way you don't pick someone using the selector and then pull them off the banner.

[paper swan]

Do we know who's the next shop operator?

[robust thistle]

no

[light latch]

Yes #game-news message

[slender temple]

Oh it's Lee

[rocky pilot]

From tekken

[robust thistle]

isnt that banner already on

[paper swan]

Lee's a skip

[robust thistle]

eh

[slender temple]

Today reset iirc

[ancient lintel]

Bro has dual shotguns but isnt capable of hitting air...

[light latch]

I dont believe it april 10 4am in utc-7 yet

[slender temple]

Shotgun are shot range so yeah

[paper swan]

Still early tho

[marble viper]

bruh is the retracing steps on 14 a live stream or the actual update

[ancient lintel]

Meanwhile some random weirdo from kazimier who just sits there reading a newspaper can hit air...

[robust thistle]

shotguns are definitely not short ranged weapons

[inland osprey]

well tbf shotgun range irl just wouldn't able to hit most range target

[rocky pilot]

Dude got 1v1ed by lemuen with a sniper rifle in close range he’s already a fraud in the beginning to begin with

[light sparrow]

How do you E2 Raidian?

[paper swan]

Do IS6 missions

[robust thistle]

clear D2 IS6

[ancient lintel]

Clear IS6 on diff2

[slender temple]

Mid range at best, so not hitting air kinda make sense ig

[light sparrow]

ok how hard is that exactly?

[paper swan]

Any ending

[marble viper]

anyone know

[paper swan]

Depends on your roster, but you can borrow someone like Tragodia

[ancient lintel]

Actual update I think

[marble viper]

why is it so early

[rocky pilot]

Too slow smh

[ancient lintel]

If u have hoshi2 then just borrow trag and it's kinda GG ngl
Hoshi diffs Yi until like D10+ iirc

[potent tartan]

To stop people from spamming when is it coming

[marble viper]

b-but more time more pulls

[light sparrow]

aight thx

[rocky pilot]

The power of-
Wait what is the ranking of tallest female ops again and where is hoshi at

[ancient lintel]

Mods: 30min slowmode 🥀

[winter crystal]

Hoshi2 still diffs yi on d15 just get a handful of some of the most common relics or a healer

[potent tartan]

should be 24h slow mode fr

[wraith sentinel]

Mantra is the tallest I think?

[paper swan]

Do you put her near the blue box with S2?

[rocky pilot]

I know but where is hoshi ranked at in tallest female ops

[ancient lintel]

Damn
Yi caused us so much trouble pre hoshi2 and now post hoshi2 he'a a fraud 🥀

[winter crystal]

Put hoshi2 as close to the red box yi comes out of as you possibly can

[paper swan]

So spawn camping, got it

[ancient lintel]

If u like sabotaging your own run then yes

[formal shadow]

it works near blue box as well technically

[paper swan]

What about Phase 2 tho

[slender temple]

3rd rank

[rocky pilot]

Oh

[ancient lintel]

Hoshi2 can solo Yi bruh

[winter crystal]

? Just to make sure we are talking about IS6 ending 1

[paper swan]

Yes

[robust thistle]

hoshialt solos yi

[formal shadow]

she just tanks it

[winter crystal]

^

[ancient lintel]

Hoshi2 diffs Yi bruh
Like Yi does arts dmg and what is bro gonna do against a 90 res hoshi2?

[paper swan]

Damn ok, that makes things easier

S2 or S3?

[winter crystal]

2

[ancient lintel]

2 for self sustaining

[karmic flax]

Probably a dumb question, but does Bagpipe still have any value if I'm already using Myrtle and SilverAsh Alter

[winter crystal]

One of the few times you prefer using S2 over S3

[formal shadow]

her value is in the trash

[slender temple]

The actual problem is whether you're capable of getting to Yi in the first place tbh

[nimble kite]

She's dead in any case.

[paper swan]

Just don't get unlucky

[rocky pilot]

Just pray game doesn’t throw bullshit at you

[winter crystal]

Even if you don’t have silver alter you don’t use bagpipe. You shouldn’t be using flags either like Myrtle now that agents like canta surfer and Ines are in the game

[paper swan]

And Puzzle is free

[rocky pilot]

Ahem

[ancient lintel]

The game gives you emer feng shui with 0 spec voucher for ethan or asca or mizuki

[limpid yarrow]

radian solo
ente solo

[robust thistle]

*terms and conditions apply

[karmic flax]

Thanks for the advice, I appreciate it

[light sparrow]

what other integrated stratergies are worth completing?

[winter crystal]

All

[robust thistle]

all of them?

[light sparrow]

ok where should I start

[rocky pilot]

Just aim for whatever the hell you want and want to do

[winter crystal]

They cost no sanity and give rewards wdym worth?

[robust thistle]

simplest is IS2
easiest to cheese is IS5

[light sparrow]

aight thanks

[rocky pilot]

Personally I don’t really care I just want that mudrock skin and hop off and do other is

[formal shadow]

is5 braindead strat

[winter crystal]

Well Mudrock skin is like one of the last rewards so

[ancient lintel]

I did 4 because the UI looks too good lol

[rocky pilot]

Anything for free pixels

[cursive maple]

i bought it with OP

[rocky pilot]

Nevermind
Technically

[neon zinc]

Should you completely go all in for Sash2 and Pram2 or should you stop pulling after getting one like usual

[ancient lintel]

I tried different endings in 4 but got clapped by the weird eyeball and the 2 kings 🥀

[slender temple]

Go for both since why not

[neon zinc]

Like, are they both a must?

[cursive maple]

like usual, get both and dip

[winter crystal]

Try to get both even if you run out of pulls we don’t have good targets to pull on until the next limited in 3 months

[ancient lintel]

No one's a must

[rocky pilot]

I curse you with the hool curse

[slender temple]

I don't think the usual term for limited is pulling 1 then stop, you almost always wanna get both

[ancient lintel]

Ur not rbp bruh gtfo 🥀

[robust thistle]

not really

[neon zinc]

Rn, i dont have a strong caster operator and sash2 is broken? so im considering maybe going all in?

[dire furnace]

[robust thistle]

not all limited banners have two good ops

[rocky pilot]

Okay I am learning the eben curse then

[runic willow]

How many pulls could you expect to get in a 3 month span

[neon zinc]

31.5k orundum and 47 primes, currently chapter 7 of main story so i have plenty more to farm

[robust thistle]

sometimes both are mid as hell even

[formal shadow]

curse of ho'ol be upon you

[ancient lintel]

Aw hell naw not ebenballz

[jovial urchin]

Hool

[dire furnace]

wtf rood

[slender temple]

I mean recently it's just that way

[marble viper]

is there already a global livestream for retracing steps

[rocky pilot]

At least guaranteed 60 if you do all anni and daily and weekly

[robust thistle]

just evaluate them individually per banner, no need to blanket them into one

[jovial urchin]

Global has no livestream for retracing our steps

[runic willow]

Not counting events avg?

[neon zinc]

How many pulls to guarantee one? Is it 300 or smth

[timber finch]

one question, how hard would it be with a very bad roaster to get raidian to elite 2 for the current event ?

[winter crystal]

300

[robust thistle]

what event

[rocky pilot]

Did I include it to begin with

[timber finch]

coop one

[slender temple]

IS6 is permanent

[robust thistle]

and why do you need a roaster, or raidian for icebreaker

[rocky pilot]

??????

[hoary ruin]

You can just borrow someone's trag and clear enough of it. IS is mostly knowledge rather than roster size.

[jovial urchin]

Struggling to find an emote for this question

[runic willow]

Iirc 300 is hard pity for one of the rate ups
Pity for 6vstar is lower?
But the likelyhood of going to 300 before one is like 6% or smt

[timber finch]

because it's still one of the strongest in some maps

[robust thistle]

?

[winter crystal]

The odds that you don’t get either until hitting hard pity at 300 are astronomically low. You usually end up with at least a couple dupes of both

[timber finch]

most of my units don't deal as much damage as her summons ?

[ancient lintel]

Guarantee a 6*?

[jovial urchin]

[rocky pilot]

[robust thistle]

what are you smoking

[neon zinc]

600 x 300 = 180,000 orundum

o.o

[marble viper]

[jovial urchin]

I hope this is a case of miscommunication

[slender temple]

So, you want to know how hard it is to E2 Raidian so you can use her on Icebreaker?

[ancient lintel]

From what I know rad isnt particularly OP in IBG #2 lol

[timber finch]

basically, yeah

[robust thistle]

just borrow a tragodia

[neon zinc]

Is Sash2 like guaranteed after 100 pulls like sakiko or no

[severe crypt]

Even then it’ll take a hot minute

[timber finch]

in my current state, she is stronger then 80% of my units to hold lines with her summons
especially with buffs

[ancient belfry]

NTR worth it if I accidentally had 200 certs?

[jovial urchin]

Borrow someone smh

[neon zinc]

oh noooooooooooooooooooooooo

[winter crystal]

This some hidden icebreaker strat I don’t know of (no it’s not)

[severe crypt]

Best option is rosmontis for IS

[ancient lintel]

Nah you'll want like rosmontis for IS or exodia in RIIC me thinks

[neon zinc]

nvm i might skip this banner i think im too poor and might brick my account

[rocky pilot]

Making raidian pissed off strat

[cinder stag]

huh? why is there 3 6*s on the silverash banner?
its a 33% chance to get what u want on this one?

[fathom nest]

Pinned event timers have been updated

[jovial urchin]

There's ros who has better IS viability. NTR is alright, nothing too crazy

[robust thistle]

astgenne is welfare

[ancient lintel]

3 6* cause 1 of them is welfare

[cinder stag]

ohh, i c thanks

[robust thistle]

like every other celebration banner, we have a *6 welfare

[ancient belfry]

Stronger than Surtr as helidrop cos of true dmg?

[cinder stag]

didnt know that, i thought we got a 6* welfare at random

[robust thistle]

what true damage

[ancient lintel]

You use her s2 for helidroping, and from what I know her s2 does not have true dmg

[rocky pilot]

Ah yes the new mod that totally gives true damage

[winter crystal]

@severe crypt 😂

[neon zinc]

Will this be enough or is it too risky to pull

[ancient lintel]

Her s3 is where her true dmg is but it needs enemies to be blocked by the sword thingy, which I find annoying asf icl

[robust thistle]

I mean what else are you gonna pull on

[ancient lintel]

Dont summon the curser 🥀

[neon zinc]

idk, im not sure about banners

[robust thistle]

banner priority in pins

[rocky pilot]

52 pulls with orundum
Then 24 free pulls from daily and 10x from mail in silverash

[robust thistle]

6 months between SAlter and the next confirmed good banner

[runic willow]

Would it be bad manners to play exchange mode with a 3 star comp

[robust thistle]

you either pull now or you wait until the mid year to pull

[winter crystal]

There’s nothing worth pulling for 3 months after this, so literally spend all your pulls trying to get both

[ancient lintel]

6??????
I thought 3??

[robust thistle]

right 3, forgor

[winter crystal]

It’s 3 😂

wang is a fraud

[neon zinc]

alright then ill try dumping everything this banner

[marble viper]

bro is going for end of year anniv

[ancient belfry]

but theres a trag orieenteering banner after salt banner right

[ancient lintel]

Man I got happy for a sec, got half a year to save for wang's balls and ch3n's... uhm, ya know what forget about it

[robust thistle]

we dont have the same orienteering pool as CN

[marble viper]

can be changed

[ancient belfry]

then late ber months, there will be trag banner?

[robust thistle]

maybe

[winter crystal]

Usually is but not completely, 1-2 ops are usually changed

[ancient lintel]

Which means good options can become bad options, but bad options can also become good options

[wide knot]

Should I develope horns?

[ancient lintel]

They can replace trag with ho'ol, but at the same time they can replace blue swire with mylnar for example

[robust thistle]

you still have an unraised logos

[light latch]

no mod sakiko, unraised logos

[wide knot]

Trying to raise the gut

[rocky pilot]

Why silence alt

[ancient lintel]

Finish those ur already upgrading 🥀

[wide knot]

I am only missing the red candy and the chips

[slender temple]

More like why Lumen

[runic willow]

Isn't it highly likely they will put good orienteering banners before big banners like Ani

[wide knot]

Oh I thought silence was good but she doesn't even heal without skills like imagine my shock

[rocky pilot]

Oh right forgot maybe because I like him so much

[robust thistle]

silence is good, silence alt is trash

[neon zinc]

how many pulls do you usually need to get 2 of the featured ops anyway

[wide knot]

The alt vers I mean

[ancient lintel]

"He's a welfare with a big ass range and counter negative status effects ofc he's good"

[robust thistle]

2

[slender temple]

So you didn't even bother reading her trait and kits, should I be surprised

[wide knot]

Nah he's good he ain't wash

[jolly egret]

how do i use second authentication token

[robust thistle]

are you getting scammed

[wide knot]

Ahem... maybe?

[hoary ruin]

150 pulls is normally enough. RNG gonna RNG sometimes tho.

[neon zinc]

150, ok

[vale dock]

what is that

[ancient lintel]

Saying lumen's good when reedic mon3tr and later Titi exists is wild 🥀

[runic willow]

in my biased exp usually below 100 for one of them. For both I dunno

[lyric lagoon]

who's paying you for this shill

[wide knot]

Guys I dont have the alternatives sho chill

[rocky pilot]

I am only building lumen because I like him but like don’t

[wide knot]

Not like he's bad anyway

[ancient lintel]

Your name says it all ye

[slender temple]

Not worth anyway

[jolly egret]

the thingy token when doing returners missions from being gone for a while

[robust thistle]

hes not bad per se, he's just very mid

[rocky pilot]

I build anything except eben to curse upon y’all

[wide knot]

He's got a big ass range so he has that

[robust thistle]

isnt eben in kernel

[runic willow]

High investment cost / average ability?

[slender temple]

4* medics also work fine, you just get out of the way and build a 6* that doesn't contribute much

[wide knot]

Size matters yes?

[rocky pilot]

Nope

[robust thistle]

oh

[ancient lintel]

Not really, he's pumping ~500 HPS with that range I think? While sussuro pumps like 800 lol

[rocky pilot]

He’s still in standard for now

[gloomy fossil]

Is astgenne the lightchaser looking good?

[winter crystal]

Lord guard vs hoshi2 range

[wide knot]

I dont regret it if I had to rerool again imma still e2 him

[slender temple]

So does Puresteam

[lyric lagoon]

alternative for suzu if you don't have suzu but like not really worth

[ancient lintel]

Now that u say that lord guard's range looks kinda like...

[rocky pilot]

Oh lord

[pine plover]

heal less when target is 2 tiles away

[wide knot]

Skill 3?

[robust thistle]

doesnt say it removes his trait

[rocky pilot]

You need his better mod for that

[wide knot]

Module

[ancient lintel]

ModY removes it iirc

[slender temple]

Bro everyone and their mother saying he's mid, just let the copes go

[pine plover]

imagine needing module and still heal less than sussurro

[robust thistle]

still mid, stop coping it
and stop bothering the guy for his lumen, its not like he can refund it

[rocky pilot]

Anyways back to this

Okay am I seeing that right did you deadass pulled on kernel

[pine plover]

811.85 hps sussurro s2 (lv70 p1 unmodded)
vs
473.91 hps lumen s3 (lv90 p6 modY3)

[slim tusk]

lumen mid but this whole sussuro shit is pretty disingenous
no shit burst healing heal more than afk healing

[robust thistle]

*disingenuous

[wide knot]

What of course not got her on my top operator tag when I first started

[ancient lintel]

Dang, and sussuro isnt even at her peak 🥀

[wide knot]

Well since were on thr topic is Ptolpis mid as well?

[robust thistle]

ptilo is good

[pine plover]

sussurro needs to lower herself so lumen can heal on par with her

[lyric lagoon]

man is trying to do anything to justify the lumen raise

[slender temple]

Ptilopsis > Lumen

[wide knot]

Ill only ever replace lumen when I have monster thats it

[light sparrow]

idk I use them both

[robust thistle]

kid named haruka and eyjaberry

[cursive maple]

well ofc ptilop has burst healing while lumen is afk

[slim tusk]

eyja heal less than suss,she is bad fr

[rocky pilot]

Are you serious

Why did you pulled on kernel to begin with

[slender temple]

Actually I was on the verge of building him to back when I start, the only thing holding me back is he doesn't look feminine enough which is lucky for me

[winter crystal]

I’ll pray you don’t get monster then 🥀

[wide knot]

Like I said I did not pull

[robust thistle]

reading comprehension -1

[cursive maple]

reading problem

[pine plover]

failed wisdom check

[severe crypt]

Bro putting the tomimi simps back 50 years

[rocky pilot]

I’ll get a chocolate I am out of sanity
Give me 2 minutes

[pine plover]

they should instead make a shaper caster that kills ally to make summon

[undone portal]

with snegurochka theres 59 4stars yes?

[lyric lagoon]

so mumu but there's actual consequences for using an operator to copy

[undone portal]

aak alter

[pine plover]

so i can kill even the tankier operators

[ancient lintel]

Mumu's still decent right?

[light latch]

aak alter should forcibly retreat an op to buff another op

[slender temple]

Aak alter should be a new class that off themselves when deployed to activate something

[lyric lagoon]

if you need consistent bind

[cursive maple]

she was used in ccb3 low ops until she wasnt lol

[undone portal]

like thrm-ex?

[lyric lagoon]

endfield strikers

[ancient lintel]

Stack the retreated op's stats on the op u wanna buff sounds kinda funny ye

[rocky pilot]

So I can put grani in a sacrificial alter to buff wisadel?

I’ll take it

[light latch]

u don't get to choose who is sacrifice

[pine plover]

the melee form has same stunlock skill like eunectes s2 but better in a way it doesnt need to block enemy to generate SP

[rocky pilot]

Nevermind I am refunding

[marble viper]

[winter crystal]

I will pray your Wis away

[undone portal]

still quite good for early laneholding + bind application, especially if you own one of the ideal ranged clone candidates. not to say melee mumu is bad either

[pine plover]

sacrifice everyone in range

[rocky pilot]

For that I am cursing you get eben

[ancient lintel]

Is wis an ideal one then

[lyric lagoon]

merchant operator where we'll get randomly generated deployables when 😔

[pine plover]

loopshoter or trapmaster because 1s atk interval is better for ranged form copy

[hidden wolf]

Yo is the new ops good

[undone portal]

absolutely not, mumu clone doesnt copy trait so it doesnt get flinger shockwaves
loopshooters/trapmasters/geeks are what to look for

[pine plover]

for melee form, just copy a juggernaut

[undone portal]

or hoshi1

[ancient lintel]

I have exu2 then, great

[hidden wolf]

Worth pulling?

[wraith sentinel]

She's free, and not that great.

[lyric lagoon]

she's welfare

[undone portal]

welfare unit, dont even need to pull
shes decent

[rocky pilot]

She’s a welfare

[hoary ruin]

Event welfare unit.

[light latch]

how u pulling for a welfare

[ancient lintel]

Uh ye you need 0 pulls to get her apparently

[pine plover]

imagine reading the rest of the news

[cursive maple]

no, shes decent for a welfare

[vale dock]

yes you can pull her

[winter crystal]

Impossible this is EN, they rather post here and read 2 paragraphs of people telling them exactly what it says

[slim tusk]

hi how to pull welfare?

[slate ridge]

she can pull me instead

[rocky pilot]

Flirting

[slim tusk]

will you build her for s2 shift?

[burnt cedar]

how does her s3 work again

[hoary ruin]

How does Aste Alt compare to Suzu in terms of slow and fragile application?

[slate ridge]

you mean Swire2 S2 ?

[undone portal]

astgennalt tl:dr: damage amp + arts dps hybrid on s3 (think a less potent suzuran s3 who contributes her own damage), can permaslow individual targets on s2

[pine plover]

i imagine it's like the chain mechanic in babel event where some enemies deals damage to all chained operator

[lyric lagoon]

those are neither random nor deployable

[undone portal]

much more consistent slow uptime if s2
lower fragile numbers

[pine plover]

merchant if they actually sell a thing

[wraith sentinel]

Her S3 links two enemies and transfers a portion of damage to the other if one gets damaged.

[lyric lagoon]

exactly

[slate ridge]

uh yes but not sure if i should make her SL7 / M1 / M2 / M3 since all these levels changes her interactions

[light latch]

they're selling their services silly

[pine plover]

so like hooker

[undone portal]

just m3 it this is a 'shu s3 sl7 needed for nl-ex-8' type concern

[burnt cedar]

i never found out but does it work like entelechia s3

[pine plover]

more like PL boss mechanic i think

[undone portal]

^ linked enemy just takes a portion of the other enemys received damage as arts

[winter crystal]

hoe’er*

[pine plover]

hore

[undone portal]

how short is the relink delay

[burnt cedar]

does the damage transfer count all arts damage or just hers

probably 1

[undone portal]

all

[lyric lagoon]

all arts

[ancient belfry]

Merchant could actually be viable if they dont consume deployment slot

[undone portal]

lee is mod base effect surely

[winter crystal]

Exu2 but merchant instead of geek

[wraith sentinel]

Probably just until she attacks again (her targeting is what links them), but prts.wiki doesn't say anything else too.

[lyric lagoon]

merchant that sells allies for more dp than their cost when

[undone portal]

exualt s3

[fluid night]

Hi. Is there a paid selector when the event goes live?

[winter crystal]

30 big ones

[ancient belfry]

I thought chen3 was specialist -_-

Since it's a waste to use 300 pulls for texas alter, maxing out Crownslayer vs phantom is better right

[lyric lagoon]

why do you specifically need a specialist

[severe crypt]

Cuz they’re special

[ancient belfry]

I used to borrow texas alter and just throw her against bosses or elite mobs, it made the game significantly easier. tho wis exist, but id rather not use her

[urban sleet]

Wang

[severe crypt]

So you want a cheat code, but not a cheat code

[winter crystal]

More mixed messages then my ex

[lyric lagoon]

bro’s like those people who don’t wanna feel guilty while eating meat 🥀

[urban sleet]

You are pivoting to your new tragodia account, he's enough smh

[ancient belfry]

Sort of, something that doesn't make all my ops useless.

[severe crypt]

Theres like tons of better ops than Tex while still not fully soloing the stage like Wis and company

[urban sleet]

Imagine throwing away a raised account for a new account just for tragofia but you dont even know how to use him

[severe crypt]

Wait he has trag???

[proven kelp]

Use the Band

[ancient belfry]

I just bought monthly pass with my main account so, well I guess im sticking with it now 🥀

[lyric lagoon]

on a new acc

[winter crystal]

If you never get new ops your old ones won’t be useless

On a real note welcome to gacha power creep

[severe crypt]

…you do know he’s like as good as Wis right

[ancient belfry]

E2 trag, mantra, narantuya, thorns hehe

[urban sleet]

Tldr they haf a raised account (I forgot who all he hsd except ines) but decided to throw it all for a new account with trag

[severe crypt]

wtf is this soap opera I’m watching

[pale tapir]

and this game isn't even bad relative to others like h*r

[proven kelp]

The Twink route

[lyric lagoon]

this is some real 1 step forward 40 flights of stairs fallen back type progression

[severe crypt]

The more context I hear, the worse it gets 🥹

[inland osprey]

does disable here count as silence?

[proven kelp]

Can you give more context

[ancient belfry]

Noo, I did not . Im planning to give away the second account, im just looking for someone worthy lol

[severe crypt]

Like tremble from degen for example

[rose mist]

Is Lappy2 worth getting if no Yu?

[pale tapir]

I would uh not mention that here

[inland osprey]

well im talking bout blitz s1 eff where he stun and disable enemies special abilities

[wraith sentinel]

"Disables special abilities" is Silence if that's what you mean.

[coarse notch]

not worth sparking regardless of yu status

[urban sleet]

Sparking is always a no if you are f2p

[severe crypt]

Look metawise, Pramalt CLEARS her, so you’d only get lap if you want her want her

[lyric lagoon]

she’s not really worth getting with spark regardless, and even if you do get her pram2 is just a better arts option

[inland osprey]

does that also count as silence?

[wraith sentinel]

Yes.

[ancient belfry]

Why does silence cant silence enemies?

[rose mist]

Then I should be sparking Walter instead then

[pale tapir]

because her name is olivia

[inland osprey]

emm when they cannot be silence , esp bosses

[coarse notch]

you shouldnt be sparking at all but if you end up at 300 wis is the obvious choice

[urban sleet]

Is this so hard to read

[lyric lagoon]

why do you feel the need to spark

[wraith sentinel]

Even Ptilopsis chose a proper codename, Silence just used her surname...

[winter crystal]

What part of “don’t spark” is confusing 😭

[rose mist]

I kinda just want new units to play with assuming I somehow dont get SA2 under 300 pulls

[formal shadow]

pram2:

[lyric lagoon]

crownslayer’s codename being made fun of for never having killed anyone with a high reputation:

[severe crypt]

$30 selector:

[winter crystal]

Ok ignoring that very unlikely possibility, really I’m assuming you’re just trying to justify sparking Wis

[pale tapir]

just be chad and spark rosmontis is5
if you're dead set on sparking something at least minimize the losses

[wanton meadow]

By ||the tsar of ursus|| no less

[severe crypt]

Don’t make fun of her username she made during the cod4 mw days 🥹

[coarse notch]

sparking is the opposite of going for new units

[formal shadow]

or divert to 5* units it's more fun

[coarse notch]

sparking is dumping pulls repeatedly for dupes of the same units

[rose mist]

Not really. Just thinking if I did pull 300 id want someone cool to play with (and better if theyre strong). I was also considering Specter2 for a full abyssal hunter team

[pale tapir]

unfortunately this requires brain

[rose mist]

Yes, I understand your point

[coarse notch]

if due to bad luck you get close to 300 before getting the banner operators then go for wis

[ancient belfry]

In case I spend for it, is Mylanar the best choice for this or Ulpianus?
My roster is just SA, Ines, Asca, Reed Medic, Surtr, Mountain

[robust thistle]

is that a type of drug prescription

[potent tartan]

Is there a website for calcing future pulls? I know theres a google sheet for that linked in the pins, but the UIs really finnicky to use on my phone rn

[wanton meadow]

Heavily depends on roster but you'd see the common mlynar/ines answer

[winter crystal]

Mylnar yes

[wraith sentinel]

https://imivi.github.io/arknights-pulls-calculator/
?

[coarse notch]

id honestly go for mon3tr but im biased
mlynar is the strongest operator on that selector but hes in the gold cert rotation already

[ancient belfry]

Is Leizi thunder not on the selector?

[pale tapir]

selector is mon3tr and older

[winter crystal]

Monster is also a very good pick but I’m IS biased

[ancient belfry]

There wont be offrate rate up for Leizi this year right sad

[coarse notch]

she'll never rerun but shes offrateable as a standard operator at the same low rate as all other standard operators

[undone portal]

mlynars probably the highest impact choice you could make
mon3tr might feel better if you get your sanity-free enjoyment from is

only consider ines if you get through silveralt banner without picking him up

[coarse notch]

they already have ines

[wanton meadow]

https://www.krooster.com/u/gvm the ines/mlynar choice is also stumping me ngl

[winter crystal]

Oh remember don’t use the ticket until the orienteering banner after Sashalt, you might want to pull on that depending on how it changes and don’t want to pull a mylnar dupe

[winter crystal]

Mylnar

[coarse notch]

its pretty mlynar favored
im stingy with my money tho so id wait for both to rotate through gold cert and get them there

[vital kelp]

should I pull mantra

[pale tapir]

I thought u guys were still on sakichan

[coarse notch]

probably not
with your demonic tw schedule def not

[vital kelp]

Yeah but asking in advance

[winter crystal]

If you have trag, like cc, and have enough pulls for sashalt sure

[fast prawn]

Would it be stupid to spark Silverash banner for Lapp alter? Just returned in Jan and my roster is still... old. Have 450 pulls rn

[wanton meadow]

I'm gonna whale anyway so might as well whale for the right units

[coarse notch]

quite

[pale tapir]

lapptop will not make it any newer
I suggest just getting the sibling alters then saving for wang/ch3n
should be easy with so many pulls

[vital kelp]

Yes

[undone portal]

also in the event you dump 300pulls anyway wis'adels right there

[vital kelp]

Yes Meh yes

Hmmm

[winter crystal]

It would be stupid to spark if you don’t spend a lot of money in the game period

[urban sleet]

Sparking is never optimal even for wisadel if f2p since it's a lot of pulls invested to get ine good op whereas it could have been used to get multiple good ops, not to mention you are more likely to get dupes of rate-ups and dupes are meaningless in this game for the most part

But if you have to spark, wis is the choice

[formal shadow]

fraudland in the big 26

[wanton meadow]

Actually that reminds me to ask, i probably should hold the selector till the next orienteering right?

[vital kelp]

Exu isn’t in the spark pool yet right

[coarse notch]

sash2/pramalt is a combined modern vg and dps banner
you have enough pulls to go for the orienteering after if its good, which will net you another modern unit
then wang/chen3 in 3 months are another two extremely strong dps options

[winter crystal]

You can, she combos pretty hard with trag and you could also use that combo in IS. But otherwise she’s another standard op, the limited banner take prio

[undone portal]

not just yet, she'll be there with 7th anni limited whoever it is

[potent tartan]

There should be an orienterring banner in between SAsh2 and the next limited with other meta OPs. Thatd be less expensive to pull for instead of sparking Lapp2
(assuming Yostar doesnt change the banner too much)

[wanton meadow]

Less expensive you mean?

[fast prawn]

Thanks, I thought it was dumb but I needed to hear it

[lyric lagoon]

this april fools should’ve come with a 7 star rarity icon for 7th anni smh

[potent tartan]

brainfarted
but yes

[runic willow]

There's no gurantee after first sakiko right?

[vital kelp]

Yeah

[coarse notch]

grub is the lucker

[undone portal]

indeed not

[lyric lagoon]

yeah, but what does that have to do with spark pool

[runic willow]

Nothing

[vital kelp]

230 for 4 copies is average at best

[undone portal]

max pot 6star in 230 is really good actually

[vital kelp]

It’s 4 copies cuz I have 8 of guard thing

[undone portal]

ok not as impressive but glad to see that weight taken off your shoulders grub

[runic willow]

Oh lmao

[formal shadow]

[vital kelp]

Now i regret not buying Pepe skin

[lyric lagoon]

imagine if they do add a 7 star rarity for 7th anni though

[undone portal]

no regrets needed, just get it next year

[winter crystal]

Eos follows shortly after

[lyric lagoon]

last endfield funding spurt

[undone portal]

i pray for nasti in first 10. id prefer to spark dusk and not be completely broke afterwards

[vital kelp]

Fair, I’m quite low on OP according to my skin buying schedule so

[winter crystal]

Honestly with how much I know genshin like games make I’m def worried

[runic willow]

Increased rarity creep kills gachas

[proven kelp]

Kill endfield first before AK

[cinder hearth]

Trvke

[vital kelp]

I wanna spark Nian too and maybe virt for afk

[runic willow]

Are you made out of orundum?

[vital kelp]

I’ve got like 270 pulls rn

[lyric lagoon]

we got some real 🐳 up in here

[winter crystal]

How can we convince you to do the opposite

[robust thistle]

arturia for afk is like '

[vital kelp]

Ok counterpoint, xiaoran use her

[robust thistle]

what year is it

[undone portal]

arturia s1

[digital phoenix]

is mod x the usual recommendation for suzuran?

[robust thistle]

idk who xiaoran is

and the usual recs for suzu is to not mod her

[undone portal]

either modless or y3 depending on how much you care about her

[limpid yarrow]

xiaoran a cn creator that does afk guides
low step afk guides

[digital phoenix]

ah i'll just leave her modless, thank ya guys

[robust thistle]

I only watch storn

[undone portal]

oyuki/willizer

[vital kelp]

But uh, I’ll see how it goes

The thing is I have all the modern afk op except her and I don’t wanna borrow so I can be lazy next year

Prob skipping mantra and see how pram2 pulling goes

[lyric lagoon]

why do you need more afk ops than just pram2 and haruka

[undone portal]

calling arturia a modern afk op in the era of tragodia is a choice
just run trag s2 and have cat as a panic button

[vital kelp]

ok but that’s not what xiaoran does-

[undone portal]

and yea, for afk gaming pramalt/zimaalt/haruka already clear like 95% of gen content on their own. no ritualists needed

[vital kelp]

Promise I won’t spark virt if I get pram2 in under 200 pulls

[lone valley]

Holy respect destroyed
Smh

[lyric lagoon]

so called "player with free will" be like

[odd sky]

i watch nicheknights

[undone portal]

i play nicheknights

[vital kelp]

I don’t play arknights

[tight fossil]

ulpianus m3 skill 2 or 3?

[formal shadow]

s3

[spare jetty]

everything ruined in 1 sentence 😭

[lone valley]

Thats like saying "i love watching supah"

[pale tapir]

supah is actually entertaining ngl
no matter how bad his takes may be
def not #help material

[undone portal]

i cant even call supahs takes bad anymore hes refreshingly well-informed as of late

cant even keep his most hated ak youtuber title, washed frfr

[pale tapir]

surprising indeed

[nimble kite]

S3 first. S2 if you want the AFK part for Annihilations, otherwise skip completely.

[undone portal]

every situation ive seen ask for ulpi s2 already works at sl7 tbh

or is made more consistent with smart s3 timing

[bright lake]

what is uh, this red box for the day 1 login reward?

[undone portal]

recruit permits + expedited plans packaged together

[hidden wolf]

Material bro

[bright lake]

? its not in my inventory to open

[undone portal]

shouldve just received 10 of each when you claimed it, its not a consumable item

[candid badger]

10 recruitment and 10 flash recruit

[bright lake]

wait what happened to this guerenteed chance+ for 6* tagset in recruit? is this buff not in effect anymore or smth? i dont see it anywhere anymore

[candid badger]

they added when sash2 banner

[bright lake]

breh okay ty

thoughts on astegenne alt?

[formal shadow]

forgettable

[undone portal]

has a permaslow niche in s2, but has lower fragile numbers than suzuran and s3 link mechanic has yet to find real applications
decent unit but not really high impact for most accounts

[nimble kite]

Dead.

[undone portal]

tl:dr safe bench candidate unless you just like her

[vale finch]

I've gotten module lvl 1 for lappy alt, chong yue, ulpipi and haruka.

Is that sufficient or should I go further?

[undone portal]

theyre all fine staying at lv1

[lunar bobcat]

how does silverash alter s2 and phatom clone work again, does it just straight up get the effect or do you have to reapply silverash alter s2

[vale finch]

Ouh okay, I use them fairly frequently so not sure if I'll be gimping them.

How about stainless? I still haven't M3 or module him yet

[undone portal]

silveralt s2 applies slash stacks on the operators themselves, not any summons in your deploy bar, so i would assume phantom clone doesnt receive them

[undone portal]

depends on what you bring him for. neither mod is of very big impact, but s3 prefers device recycling and s1 prefers the aspd buff

[vale finch]

Hmm so far I've been using his S3 mostly. I find that it works really well with charging chong yue S3

[hidden wolf]

bagpie is absolute trash?

[undone portal]

your stainless sounds safe staying modless tbh

[lunar bobcat]

oh ok. one more question, what if the op he applies the effect on get shoot out by exusiai s3, does it still trigger the slashes?

[undone portal]

should work i believe. exualt s3 counts as a standard deploy

[pine plover]

silverash2 s2 with bellone s3 but make him block count 0 so he loops on teleporting

[nimble kite]

Has no usable niche. Back then, she has only one being strongest Vanguard to start CC maps with big ass stat Risks.

[undone portal]

her initial sp niche .. still exists i suppose? modern bagpipe application is kinda just letting ines/silveralt get their skills up immediately but you will basically never need this
flagpipe is overkill everywhere

[nimble kite]

Since CCB3, Bagpipe isn't even required.

[limpid yarrow]

she does exactly one thing and that is give initial SP
so there's always a chance she's needed but that chance gets less every year 😔
in gen content its just overkill

[vague zodiac]

Hi, is anyone familiar with Yostar's CS? I asked them about account problems via the official CS web form. Problem is, i cant seem to track the ticket's progress. There had been no email from them, nor a menu to track said ticket?
Like how long their response time is, etc

[undone portal]

certainly dont expect bagpipe to actually kill anything and gen dp herself

[limpid yarrow]

ya no she's just a talent now

[spare jetty]

wait for 1+ business day

[limpid yarrow]

bagpipe go stop that traffic cop

[spare jetty]

then check the mails

[zealous ingot]

is there a channel where can i find a team for the event?

[pine plover]

sometimes gmail being whack and for no reason email notifications didnt appear

[undone portal]

#icebreaker-lockers

[nimble kite]

Should answer from ingame CS to actually know when you get answer.

And you won't like the ETA of answering 100%.

[lunar bobcat]

silveralt also has a talent that's just bagpipe but for.. everyone

[undone portal]

everyone cheaper than 14/19dp, but those are the ops you would care about initial sp on anyway

[vague zodiac]

alright then, webform i submit is already nearing 2 days. an email i sent is about to be 4 days. none had been met with reply 😵

@nimble kite thats the problem, im trying to recover my old account. sent them all the proofs i could, purchase invoices, CC clear, profile from a friend whos still active, etc. think there were a migration to yostar account where if your google only account wasnt linked, its bound to be lost?

anyway thanks, you two

[nimble kite]

You had Yostar (Email) bind by chance?

[random shard]

There was an automated process for recovering that somewhere

[vague zodiac]

i didnt 😬
ive only made one now

[undone portal]

if silveralt mod boosts his initial sp boost any further then bagpipe will be found dead in a ditch

[nimble kite]

Well, enter the game and write this ticket there. For making sure.

[vague zodiac]

alright, thanks again!

[lunar bobcat]

oh right he's coming out with his mod ? holy shi-

[random shard]

When you did was there an option to bind your account? https://www.reddit.com/r/arknights/comments/1julz6i/yostar_bind_for_not_yet_migrated_accounts/ assuming you know your old details you don't need cs

[undone portal]

i didnt say that silveralt mod doesnt exist yet, even on cn

[nimble kite]

*<link>

[lunar bobcat]

oh ok i thought he was going to have his mod too on release since i couldn't find any info on that

[random shard]

I forgot if it needed spaces or not

[undone portal]

matsukiri mod will be huge
-# for penance

[mental gull]

where's the imgur.com banner recommendation?

[nimble kite]

The problem is... it requires a email bound, which this dude doesn't have it. And their only option - is to make a ticket in CS.

[mental gull]

you guys don't use imgur now?

[undone portal]

i guess not
imgur kinda sucks to be fair

[odd sky]

some ppl have imgur blocked so

[vague zodiac]

YOOOOOOOO TYSM

[nimble kite]

I guess I need to reread this thread and use it.

[vague zodiac]

i dont know why when i log into the game with said email, it was a fresh account instead of this. i assume its all this binding thing? whatever. got my account back
