[serene marlin]

is shirayuki better than kroos?

[buoyant sigil]

No

[serene marlin]

i need to put some rangers on my team but i dont have much

[hidden wolf]

Pull bro @subtle dawn who u got?

[dapper torrent]

If you have May, she's pretty good

[hidden wolf]

Get kroos alter

[serene marlin]

how

[hidden wolf]

Side story

[buoyant sigil]

Use Kroos and when possible clear 4 stages of the “Invitation to Wine” side story under the “Through the Ages” category. Gets you a good pair for her that should handle anti air early in

You unlock side stories after clearing 1-10; if you’re not there yet, just chill for now

[vital kelp]

didnt he already send

[hidden wolf]

No who he got from pulling

[worthy gyro]

that being said, 3-star kroos is an incredibly solid unit and just a good investment in general
even when she's outclassed in the main story, she still gets plenty of use in IS2, 3, and 4

[ancient current]

remember that pull screens are for #salt-mines

[vital kelp]

do we know what the median number of pulls to get a max pot 6 star on specific banners

[worn drift]

let say I have Raidian E2 on floor 1, is it right to assume I got "no longer use deployment limit" on floor 4?

[ancient current]

yes

[worldly estuary]

summons no longer use slots in floor 4, but raidian herself and the others still use slots if its what you meant

[buoyant sigil]

Why floor 4 specifically?

[ancient current]

well, +1 floor each time for each buff

[worldly estuary]

floor 4 and ongoing tho

[ancient current]

considering the first buff applies on floor 1

[buoyant sigil]

Provided you have E2 in floor 1, you get the first effect in floor 1?

Wouldn’t that mean you get the second effect in floor 2?

[ancient current]

well, at e1 too

[ancient current]

that's right

but there are 4 effects here

[worldly estuary]

its reduced to deploy limit +1 instead of +2 if E1

[buoyant sigil]

Ohh, it’s one effect each floor?

[subtle dawn]

I did 6 multis and got nobody 💔

[ancient current]

it's worded atrociously but the deployment limit part and the aspd part are two different effects

[subtle dawn]

I'm fuming rn 😡

[worldly estuary]

yeah, and stacks to the next floors

[subtle dawn]

Do I keep going once I get more pulls or nah

[buoyant sigil]

Your chance of getting at least one is gonna raise by a few % every time you do a single after 50 so you’re likely to get one in… not many

[subtle dawn]

Also if it's 20% to get a 6 star per multi isn't it bad luck if I don't get one after 6 multis

[subtle dawn]

I have 2000 orginite should I do singles?

[buoyant sigil]

You should try

[vital kelp]

its not 2% x 10 brother

[shut juniper]

do one more to pop your pity at least

[subtle dawn]

Bruh isn't 2% per single

[buoyant sigil]

Spending more orundum than you already have on 10 pulls is risky so singles

[vital kelp]

thats not how possibility works

[hidden wolf]

No way bro

[subtle dawn]

I'd appreciate it if you can give me a quick math lesson 🙏

[raw wigeon]

happened to me in this orienteering and also in the previous one

[vital kelp]

its actually 18.29% u get at least 1 6 star per 10 pulls

[hidden wolf]

Keep pulling u are in too deep

[vital kelp]

its like 8.85% chance u dont get a 6 star in 60 pulls

tuff luck bro

[low flare]

2% 6*, and 50% of that for rate up is 1% per pull. 99% chance of missing that 1% each time, multiplicative. .99^10 =.9044, meaning a 9.56% chance per 10 rolls.

[vital kelp]

its different if u count the rateup only

[dapper torrent]

Is there a way to check what each title(the ones you get after each run) means in stronghold?

[subtle dawn]

I got ulpianus!

Who should I replace for him

[dapper torrent]

Probably Specter or OG Silverash

[chrome prawn]

Try looking at the mission

[vital kelp]

was mantra immediately before sashter

[dapper torrent]

What mission?

[chrome prawn]

The event mission(actually idk what you are talking about)

[slate sigil]

does new banner worth to pull?

[vital kelp]

pins

is swalter really above stainless

[slate sigil]

what's there

[bold kernel]

Not too important but how do people have little originium slug emotes in the new event?

[vital kelp]

the answers

[ancient lotus]

swipe to the left on the emote wheel, there's another set of emote

[dapper torrent]

#help message

[slate sigil]

i have a question about 5* stars operators

[wintry steppe]

is 6 star that common in new banner, how do ppl already get 6* in less than 50 pulls

[raven ermine]

IS module doing some heavy lifting
And even in gen content, given no choice, i'm using swire over stainless, his niches are very very situational, i can't think of a single not schizo usecase off the top of my head

[slate sigil]

should i choose surfer still if i'm using sash2 and cantabille? cantabille and surfer feels pretty similar as a operators

[scenic marsh]

Are there any upcoming operators that I, as a begginer should look out for? I tried support wisadel and she's honestly so amazing

[vital kelp]

u dont need surfer if u have cantabile

[vital kelp]

Wang in 3 months will feel like the second coming of wisadel

[daring helm]

does DP do anything in stronghold?

[buoyant sigil]

Roach of Doom: The Return

[lyric lagoon]

from summoning rocks to throwing rocks

[subtle dawn]

Specter is rlly strong for me and sashs skill is helpful sometimes so idk

[raven ermine]

Didn't play it yet, but if it's like the previous iteration, "dead" ops use dp to come back to the battlefield

[lyric lagoon]

replace specter, not sash

[buoyant sigil]

If specter is good you will be blown out of the water by what ulpianus can do

[subtle dawn]

But I like specter 😔

[vital kelp]

then u can do u

[subtle dawn]

Ok I will trust y'all

[buoyant sigil]

Ulpianus does literally everything she can accomplish but better

[daring helm]

what does this "Concession Operators Available" mean?

[harsh marsh]

I got big whale man on orienteering (got him at 30 pulls), should I keep pulling until I get trago or stop rn?

[subtle dawn]

What is ulpianus best skill?

[vital kelp]

depends

[buoyant sigil]

Self-heal? There. Attack all blocked enemies? There. Good lanehold? There.

[lyric lagoon]

stop

[buoyant sigil]

S3, 95% of cases.

[slate sigil]

and last one as a defenders i'm using cuora and gummy, if i got bassline should i replace him with someone?

[harsh marsh]

Will there be a tragodia rerun?

[lyric lagoon]

yes, later this year

[buoyant sigil]

People may mention S2 but it’s really only for AFKslop

[subtle dawn]

Is his mod and m3 worth getting or can I get away with just e2 lvl 1 s7

[harsh marsh]

Noted, thank you

[buoyant sigil]

You usually wanna level to e2/60 regardless btw

[humble karma]

who should I pick from this yall?

[wraith shoal]

e2 lvl1 is diabolical

[raven ermine]

You need levels for stats, mod1 is just a bonus so you can skip it, but masteries are important

[lyric lagoon]

pins

[atomic pecan]

what are some top operators i should build in my account for either end game content, or just min maxing certain content/bases
https://krooster.com/u/happy-canary-rainbow-372c

[subtle dawn]

Lmd ain't grow on trees bruh 😭

[humble nova]

lessing's good?

[buoyant sigil]

I would say he’s a good m3 target and mod1 is an improvement

[vital kelp]

they grow out of the ground on base, u just need to pick it up

[wraith shoal]

just do some IS and have a decently built base

[buoyant sigil]

Grows on your base so no excuses lmao

[raven ermine]

You sounds like you have a big issue base wise

[tropic schooner]

yall i think i have too many guards ... do i swap out thorns for a vanguard like myrtle/surfer?

[subtle dawn]

Ok I will max mastery his s3 but skip his mod until I have a bunch of resources to spare

[vital kelp]

u cant have too many guards

but thorns is garbage

[subtle dawn]

Also I got bassline and surfer do any of them fit in my team or nah?

[buoyant sigil]

Surfer

[lyric lagoon]

finish wis with mod3 finish your saki mod3 and s3m3, get hoshi2 mod3, get ulpi s3m3, finish your haruka s2m3

just finish a lot of your masteries and mods bruh 😭

[tropic schooner]

maaaan i raised him coz he looked cool so maybe i'll swap him our for myrtle yea?

[buoyant sigil]

Actually do show your team

[unborn kayak]

I haven't looked at building a 5* ops in like uh, since the lapp alter event? what recent 5*s are worth building?

[lyric lagoon]

also if you’re running IS, raise rosmontis for IS5, then ange and mizuki for all IS in general

[raven ermine]

ditch mountain for ulpi instead

[buoyant sigil]

Ulpi > Mountain and Surfer isn’t needed rn
Just saw mountain mb

[slate sigil]

i got zuo le, should i keep pulling?

[lyric lagoon]

stop

[lyric lagoon]

are you playing 5starknights

[hybrid bluff]

Is charletto worth getting

[slate sigil]

at least he's came in second 10, aight will save

[lyric lagoon]

unless you play a LOT of IS, no

[unborn kayak]

No just got a surplus of mats in my inventory because I didn't get both 6*s this banner

[hybrid bluff]

Ok

[unborn kayak]

I do play a lot or IS tho

[raven ermine]

If you have a krooster.com account, share it it'll be easier to tell

[lyric lagoon]

then nothing has changed, you don’t need to raise any unless you haven’t raised base slaves or certain IS ops yet

[raven ermine]

Certing chetto is fine, if you're a big IS player and not a new account

[subtle dawn]

How much does ulpi cost to deploy? The thing about mountain I like is that he's rlly good early into the run

[vital kelp]

25

[subtle dawn]

Ok imma just replace specter for him then

[raven ermine]

Just deploy sa2 for early laneholding

[lament loom]

Wha

[onyx mango]

wow

[vital kelp]

wa

[severe crypt]

W

[lament loom]

Ulpipi is 24 DP cost for me

[thorny edge]

but you maxed specter and mountain is genuinely kinda useless on top of being underlevelled

[buoyant sigil]

You likely have a dupe
First pot is usually -1 dp cost

[tropic schooner]

who do i replace for thorns? is surfer or myrtle good if i have ash alter already

[subtle dawn]

Yeah but I didn't spend any resources on specter

[thorny edge]

yeah but she's max level

[lyric lagoon]

honestly take everyone out, you have wis

[raven ermine]

Nope, ulpi is 24dp

[vital kelp]

how good is ling

[buoyant sigil]

Oh fr?

[lyric lagoon]

send your squad and krooster

[buoyant sigil]

I have been officially gaslighted

[raven ermine]

Nice skin brother

[lyric lagoon]

by yourself

[scenic marsh]

Oh wow ulp is so handsome. I wanna get him

[tropic schooner]

here here or maybe firewhistle for defender (?)

[lament loom]

I knew Ulpipi was expensive but had no idea how much so I immediately checked

[buoyant sigil]

Meh usage nowadays. Too much deployment slot for worse payoff than just using an operator
Fat dragons that don’t have stats that big for todays standards

[worn drift]

if I need help how to beat a certain stage in IS using my current sq, should I ask in #strategy or #is-station ?

[lament loom]

Sankyu

[lyric lagoon]

1. you already have thorns in your squad, do you mean thorns2?
2. no to firewhistle

[glass mural]

You'll likely get better results out of #is-station

That being said, both is probably fine?

[subtle dawn]

If I take out mountain imma be forced to level up sash2 further tho so he can defend himself better

[thorny edge]

? were you just never gonna raise sash?

[tropic schooner]

oh i was told thorns was trash so i was asking who's the better alternative like do i add in another vanguard or someone else

[buoyant sigil]

I think they mean who to use to replace thorns
Yep

[timber finch]

why not e2ing sash2 tho
his s3 is great

[raven ermine]

Uh, even then, sash2 e1 50 should work decently as a mountain replacement

[lyric lagoon]

then show your krooster

[glass mural]

Quick question, do any channels in here have rules against double asking?

Like asking in both Help and Strategy.

Or asking in Strategy and IS Station?

[timber finch]

also yeah, unless your mountain tank all game, e150 sash2 is enough
just use a defender if needed

[vital kelp]

😭 if i replace thorns with sakiko that means i have to invest in ulpian for laneholding!!! I would never!!!

[thorny edge]

no if you get ignored just ask again

[lyric lagoon]

I mean if you’re spamming it, yeah, otherwise nah, send the same message in both channels if you need

[buoyant sigil]

Even then when ulpianus gets online they’re already immediately better lmao

[wheat saddle]

underselling the dragon stats tbh, they're quite good and deal arts damage, but yeah issue is limited deployment slots and quite costly

[subtle dawn]

Ok I will just get sash2 to lvl 50 and replace mountain with ulpianus and see how it goes

[thorny edge]

they cant be healed and they take up two deployment slots for a stat stick

[tropic schooner]

i havent set up one yet waitttt

[lyric lagoon]

stat stick that get outstated by many other options at that

[buoyant sigil]

I’d say that the point is that while the stats may not be bad you get more value from using an actual operator that takes 1 deployment slot over a fat dragon with okay stats that costs 2 (assuming s3)

It’s just not worth it

[thorny edge]

also in 2026 we have haruka, any operator healed by her basically becomes invincible anyways

[raven ermine]

Ling is a shu talent bot

[flat hamlet]

In campaign chapter 12-19, the civilians/spies have weight 2 and get identified once blocked for a certain time right? I set block 2-3 units at the main points of crossing, but they still walk through them to the objective point, and if spies, I lose out. Why am I unable to block them sometimes?

[vital kelp]

but ling used in ccb4 8 op clear 😭

[raven ermine]

Ok but low ops don't count

[slate sigil]

including that i got ulpi and zuo le, should i still first of all e2 sash og?
https://www.krooster.com/u/cute-denim-goose-92oj

[glass mural]

There are specific enemies on the map that deny you the ability to block.

[blissful island]

what should I choose here? and what time

[lament loom]

Is there the enemy that u forgot to kill

[vital kelp]

read enemy description

look for the one with big stick

[thorny edge]

9 hrs and u can gamble for kaltsit

[lament loom]

The one that reduces block count against ur ops vs civs or smthing

[wheat saddle]

what does shu talent do

[raven ermine]

If you care about IS, medic, if not supporter
And 9h

[lyric lagoon]

medic max time

[glass mural]

Medic or supporter. Full 9 hours.

Medic gets shot at Gale or Kal'tsit. Supporter has shot at Suzuran.

[vital kelp]

the one that makes civs unblockable if hes not blocked

[lament loom]

Oh UNBLOCKABLE. Ah yes.

[dapper torrent]

FYI, if you don't choose 9h, I think the top op tag can fall off. So always pick 9h in these cases

[raven ermine]

+1sp per 4s for everyone without conditions if you have 4 suis in your team

[thorny edge]

.25 stackable sp buff and 12% atk for everyone

[flat hamlet]

No
It's the civilian like character that is either innocenr or a spy

Will check for that enemy in the notes. Thanks fellas

[idle panther]

hello is this the best use of yellow certs or better save it?

[vital kelp]

wait til u have 258

[blissful island]

is there much difference between medic and supporter results or kinda the same?

[idle panther]

noted, thanks

[glass mural]

You barely. And I mean barely. Fail to meet the 258 threshold.

[raven ermine]

Do not buy it right now, you're not getting 28 certs before end of the month

[thorny edge]

kaltsit can dps, suzuran is a debuffer and slower

[lyric lagoon]

it’s either you buy all permits at 258 or buy a good op with 180 (good ops don’t come often)

[broken flame]

That's one of the best uses if you can buy out everything (258) or buy a good op for 180 (i.e Mlynar/Ascalon/Ines/Ray/Logos etc.)

[buoyant sigil]

Even then just use nian over ling/dusk lol

[hybrid bluff]

I drained my pull resources and got trag. Is it worthwhile ?

[glass mural]

You made out like a bandit.

[slate sigil]

would someone give an advice?

[buoyant sigil]

How much spending
Like, how many pulls was that

[hybrid bluff]

50 pulls

[buoyant sigil]

Pretty good

[vital kelp]

why did u ask after u pull

[lyric lagoon]

how many do you have left

[thorny edge]

do ulpenis first

[hybrid bluff]

33 ops

[vital kelp]

[karmic pivot]

morale boost

[buoyant sigil]

Should still get ~100 in wang time

[glass mural]

Reccing Trag from this isn't my go-to rec, but that is absolutely one of the best case scenarios you could have had going into this

[raven ermine]

I would do sash first, ulpi can work for a time at e1, sash can't

[lyric lagoon]

boutta get hit by the pot6 ch3n special

[buoyant sigil]

[thorny edge]

ok but i'd prefer the pot 6 chen pro max special

[hybrid bluff]

I still have stories left unclear more ops

[buoyant sigil]

at least they probably have the resources to level them up I got shamare and trag in a day and just finished sash2 🥀 I get no break

[slate sigil]

okay thx

[buoyant sigil]

curse of 2000 lmd and a dream

[hybrid bluff]

I should save 168 gold cert right?

[vital kelp]

258

[broken flame]

sounds like it's time to play IS for materials

[raven ermine]

Just burn yourself out farming IS, everything will be fine

[vital kelp]

whats pram2 s1 do guys

[lyric lagoon]

258 and preferably have 180 extra for a potential good cert shop op

[thorny edge]

push and bit of damage

[buoyant sigil]

If I hadn’t cleared 90% of the borrowed operator/teams already in my pram2/sash2 odyssey

[onyx mango]

is pram2 gud for is5?

[hybrid bluff]

I guess I’ll save until then

[thorny edge]

probably 1st caster pick

[wraith shoal]

good cause same hand with flingers

[timber finch]

guys what would be the best skills for siege2, gg and blaze2 🙏

[raven ermine]

pram2 fit in flinger comp, so

[buoyant sigil]

But yeah time to IS and grind lmd

[glass mural]

GG likes S3, a lot more than the others.

[wraith shoal]

lmd drought is real

[buoyant sigil]

Does pram s1 being shift does that make her good in is3

[vital kelp]

its not

it grows out of the ground

[raven ermine]

s3 for all of those

[hybrid bluff]

Ptilo and warfarin are my only main healers, should I invest more healers ?

[raven ermine]

Yeah, she's used for izumik afaik

[wraith shoal]

and it disappeared these last few days

[vital kelp]

wait for it to grow back

[thorny edge]

is s2 a better balatro skill if you dont have burn application

[raven ermine]

Nope, not even close

[buoyant sigil]

Warfarin is a buffer under the misleading name of a medic. Get yourself silence/purestream/sussurro for easy cheap options

[raven ermine]

You'd have to block everything to apply it in the first place

[thorny edge]

fair enough

[proven kelp]

You still rather use s3 even without Yu
It's still a generic burst skill

[hybrid bluff]

Alr

[thorny edge]

what was the total damage on s3?

[lyric lagoon]

blaze honestly just a damage sponge that sometimes deals dmg 💔

[raven ermine]

The burst is fine too, it's like a degen s3 iirc

[proven kelp]

Last time i heard it should be similar to Eyja s3

[thorny edge]

🤮

degen s3 with shit range and neutered by res 😔

[buoyant sigil]

The mid eyja helidrop vs the awesome sash helidrop

[vital kelp]

guys should i spark wisadel in pram2 banner??? i heard shes gamechanging

[thorny edge]

wait but degen s3 is only like 39k total damage. eyja is like 60

[timber finch]

sorry again but mod1 or mod 2 for gg, and what skill necrass ? 👀

[vital kelp]

s3 necrass

[thorny edge]

necrass skill 3, the extra res shred one for gg iirc

[vital kelp]

hey guys

any news on monhon collab?

[broken flame]

no

[broken flame]

You will get My Little Pony and you will like it

[buoyant sigil]

One of them is used more often due to lower SP needs

[vital kelp]

what is c0 and c2, constellation?

[crude belfry]

hello! im new to the game, and i was wondering how i can make a good use of these consumables, plus how does the gacha system work / which banners to pull for and avoid?

[vital kelp]

pinned message

[timber finch]

check pins
the 5th one your call, either 30k lmd or keep for collection

[raven ermine]

Conditions, but idk why 0-2 instead of c0-c1

[broken flame]

Check out Roadless Camelot in the pins

[crude belfry]

on my way! thanks

[thorny edge]

holy fuck

[thorny edge]

should've been c1 c2 lol

[raven ermine]

Ardanis shilled the degen comparison too hard, it stuck to me

[vital kelp]

degen is kinda mid nowday isnt she

[thorny edge]

it really is just degen with shit range

[blissful island]

do i still use the e2 thing on tequila even if I have mlynar?

[timber finch]

i mean, depend if you want one or two nuker

[thorny edge]

when your competition for a burst skill is lemuen s3, i think everyone is cooked

[buoyant sigil]

Do you want one dollar or two dollars

[silent pendant]

is the crownslayer event rerun up next or is nasti up to bat

[lyric lagoon]

if you have shamare e2 and nothing else to spend your resources on, then yes

[raven ermine]

If you have specter, i'd rather use it on her

[vital kelp]

does chen3 and wang have afk skill

[lyric lagoon]

(cn had crownslayer event first though)

[thorny edge]

chen doesnt have an afk skill

[random steppe]

is there any option or tab where i can inspect the units which i dont own

[glass mural]

In the short-term, he's a perfectly solid placeholder unit for running another damage dealer unit.

[blissful island]

I did choose her from the selector

[glass mural]

In the long-term, he does base-y things.

[raven ermine]

You're likely already covered in the damage department, tequila e1 is fine enough too

[stone escarp]

I need the experts here, fix my squad. who doesnt fit, who should be here? (read the name)

[lyric lagoon]

wang is a trapmaster, one of the least afk archetypes to exist 💀

[raven ermine]

I swear, if i hear the "but tequila for base" argument again

[thorny edge]

not rly. you can look at the banner units on the banner and check out operators in the support unit tab but thats about it

[vital kelp]

#arknights

[dire ermine]

Sorry if this is a dumb question, it’s my first time playing a story event. For anyone who’s cleared Road of Reformation and Heart of Karlan, was there any extra story or hidden scenes after finishing all stages? Asking because I’m finding it a bit difficult to clear and don’t want to miss out on any story 🙏

[oak skiff]

for sh, is there the concept of saving or are all your funds gone at end of round

[random steppe]

tysm

[silent pendant]

instead of being AFK he's AFCF (Away From Cognitive Function)

[thorny edge]

CE, Catherine, Gladiia, Coldshot, Whislash, Sneg, Iana are all pretty underpowered

[humble nova]

why does sash2 not get pushed or affected by avalanche here..?

[lyric lagoon]

normal stages usually constitute all of story within a chapter/event

[thorny edge]

you can find better milfs. try harder

[silent pendant]

blaze alter as well

[stone escarp]

thats why im asking, who should be in the list

[raven ermine]

Blaze is fine there, did you see the unit quality

[vital kelp]

#arknights

[thorny edge]

pretty strong for a hag

[thorny edge]

cant help you there, i'd lose my job

[lyric lagoon]

you really like hags… huh…

[silent pendant]

i mean if you're talking relative to everything else Sure I Guess

[worn drift]

cause the mob block it

[dire ermine]

That's awesome! I was able to clear all of those stages. Thank you. I just love Kjerag characters and didn't want to miss out on their story 🙂

[raven ermine]

Well, yes ?
Also you missed a part of the question i suppose

[blissful island]

don't have shamare yet
do I just go for specter then?

[tropic schooner]

@lyric lagoon yooo i just set up my krooster would you mind looking at it and what team can i use? https://www.krooster.com/u/good-indigo-spot-82gn

[silent pendant]

i'm assuming that other guy also thought it was strength because there's no way they'd exclude sneg

[humble nova]

Ohhhh

[short steppe]

Degen is still good

[humble nova]

theres only four OS stages right?

[thorny edge]

why should sneg be there

[silent pendant]

why wouldn't she

[raven ermine]

why would she is the better question
Tf does sneg achieve exactly

[thorny edge]

ok but ur the one complaining, drop ur reasoning first

[silent pendant]

matches their theme

[stone escarp]

i think you didnt read the context, im intentionally building a team surrounding older women so i want to see if there are other characters in the game thats fits the niche im missing

[thorny edge]

theres better hags

[vital kelp]

you all gonna get the slowmo to be 30 sec again

[stone escarp]

this is a genuine question i dont see the problem

[lyric lagoon]

honestly, you’ll be fine with what you have rn until you get an op to raise to replace thorns, unless you want some extra immediate dp regen other than sash2 at the start of a stage, then raise elysium

[stone escarp]

i checked the pinned rules and it breaks none of them as well

[glass mural]

A lot of the time, the solution to your problems can be, just Wis'adel it/Pram Alter it with maybe a bit of healing support and some others here and there tbh.

[humble nova]

grrr... AHGGGGG

[tropic schooner]

yeaa my dp regen is slow specially when im doing annihilations anyways thanks!!

[thorny edge]

actually have u got a krooster that i can see?

[tropic schooner]

honestly wis'adel is such an unga bunga of a operator

[ruby grotto]

https://www.krooster.com/network/lookup/ashen_abyss

Should I go after anyone in the Orienteering Headhunt? My account is newer and I currently have about 50 pulls. Or should I wait till later?

[short steppe]

Well yeah- it doesn’t take much to use her

[thorny edge]

id skip for wangussy and chen pro max

[ruby grotto]

Yeah, I've been told that before. so that's still true. got it.

[stone escarp]

Whats the max sanity capacity?

[vital kelp]

180, soon to be 210

[glass mural]

You don't already have Tragodia. roughly 1/3rd of the time, you'll get blessed, 1/3rd of the time, you'll get is a nice consolation, and the final 1/3rd is just fucking you over with a meh consolation.

[thorny edge]

degenbrecher and leizi are both hags

[lyric lagoon]

if you count the suiblings since majority of them are old af, then they’re a group you could aim for, kaltsit’s also hag af

[thorny edge]

if you dont want to count immortal beings then just add degenbrecher and leizi

[stone escarp]

i was debating kal sit cuz she is ofc mega old but she is immortal in the same way kjera is

[ruby grotto]

Yeah, I've seen people talking really good about Tragodia, that's why I asked about it tbh

[stone escarp]

i havent read sui, is leizi old?

[thorny edge]

pretty sure viviana isnt that young either

[humble karma]

by that logic isnt mon3tr also old?

[thorny edge]

like pushing 40s or already 40

[glass mural]

Do you feel comfortable getting fucked over by the game 2/3rds of the time?

[stone escarp]

ive heard ines is also borderline but that felt like a cop out

[thorny edge]

ines is pretty unc too lowk

[humble nova]

here to update, theres 5 OS stages, idk how many more tho, trying to complete it

[raven ermine]

Tragodia will rerun, and his banner will be a 50% instead of a 33% currently

[lyric lagoon]

ascalon is also hag

[ruby grotto]

I think if I should wait, because I can always try for the rerun.

[timber finch]

wait how do you access them, it keep telling me to complete part one even tho i did

[thorny edge]

hagknights is such a shit niche cuz theres a bunch of good ones lol

[wraith shoal]

do y'all just guess the ages or are they documented

[thorny edge]

actually wisadel isnt even that young

[formal shadow]

did you read the last part. the story part

[humble nova]

theres normal, ex stages, idk if the other event side story counts, but it should be accessible to u by now. Did u update ur game?

[raven ermine]

ok but she can't read, does wis even count atp

[timber finch]

yes to both
well i skipped story but i did play it

[thorny edge]

yes bc old grandmas and grandpas also cant read

[still surge]

Crownslayer is right around the metaphorical corner right?

[thorny edge]

idk abt that one

[formal shadow]

slightly further from that but should be after OS yeah

[echo venture]

please use #help but valid gameplay questions.

[wraith shoal]

yeah next event should be lapp2 unless yostar shits the bed again

[timber finch]

i also did all EX stages in challenge mod apart ex8

[echo venture]

@thorny edge drop this nonsense

[stone escarp]

isnt building a niche team a valid gameplay question?

[echo venture]

not the place do discuss this

[slate sigil]

to get tier 1 materials do i should farm just 1-7 stage?

[echo venture]

no

[stone escarp]

got it, ill drop the topic then

[humble nova]

idk what to tell ya, u needa update ur game prob. check the app store or whatever ur getting its update

[lyric lagoon]

and credit shop

[shadow canopy]

i got the same problem lol

[echo venture]

use #arknights if you wanna discuss who is a hag

[timber finch]

I mean i did update since im playing spa actively rn, i guess it'll just fix itself overnight prob then

[humble nova]

try playing a stage or go into base. It came out when I did that

[still surge]

Kk I hope cause the only ops I really want rn were tragodia and crownslayer and one just got put into orienteering

[supple lotus]

Hey lads, my Silverash alter is s2m3 atm, should i just m9 him or stop at m6?(s2 and s3)

[shadow canopy]

restarting my game fixed it

[timber finch]

..yep base fixed it, ty
weird but ty

[glass mural]

Honestly, it's probably better banner timing too.

Rolls now bite into Wang savings funds.

Rolls later bite into the leftovers of what you have after securing highly valuable limited operators who aren't getting reruns.

And also savings for whoever the hell we get in the inevitable CN Summer - Global NY event limited, but details details.

[vital kelp]

i mean, we just got out of a good banner to reroll

[lament loom]

There goes the chances of SA2 and Pra2 for everyone

[oblique cypress]

i heard hags

[humble nova]

hah knew it, its a bug shit

[fathom hawk]

can u use ur own ops for stronghold protocol 😭

[timber finch]

yes

up to 4

[fathom hawk]

…how i highkey can’t find it 😭 is it just the support thing or can i replace the entire team

[timber finch]

0/2 support thing yeah

[fathom hawk]

oh
also lowk why r there so many teams 💀 do i get to choose which i use or smth

[timber finch]

as you wish, that's more a #stronghold-hall ask tho

[ruby grotto]

That's pretty valid. Thank you for the info.

[fathom hawk]

oh oke tysm 🙏

[stoic quartz]

asian docs, how to pronounce Ho'olheyak?

[timber finch]

that way

[thorny edge]

hoolheyak is a mayan word tho

[echo venture]

this is more of a #ak-lore question. this channel is only for gameplay

[shy quiver]

Why is Tragodia considered one of the "best operators in the game"?

[timber finch]

lure and stall

[slim tusk]

he toys with enemy pathing

[wide knot]

Guys is this worth pulling with Wang coming up on 3 months?

[ebon plaza]

his s2 is a "global" skill that lets him do damage anywhere on the map, said damage is more recent type of damage so enemies don't have resistance to it yet, and he has utility such as enemy movement redirection as well as attack interrupt

s3 is good too but s2 is the star of the show

[timber finch]

depend, can you guarantee one in 10 and do you have none of them

[wide knot]

I have none of them

[novel dagger]

Do we have something like a new player's guide?

[timber finch]

id say don't pull unless you can guarantee you won't spend a lot

[wide knot]

Basically a mid game player I think

[timber finch]

if you're gonna spend 50/60 pulls on it, imo id say it's not worth it
you do have a lot to lose

[wide knot]

Thanks

[timber finch]

i wouldnt go past 20 at most tbh

[wide knot]

Orienteering banner I got logos at 30 lol so I just needed someone to demoralised me to not do it

I mean what are the chances especially right?

[timber finch]

33-33-33 and 2% per pull
but Ulpianus will be in cert shop "soonish" and Tragodia will rerun

[wintry steppe]

Seeing 1/2 my alt account got 2 6* in 10 pulls I'd rather save up for next limited banner on my main acc

[wide knot]

Won't even be able to get past 20

[mossy cipher]

https://www.krooster.com/u/lively-jade-sharp-75q8 who should I focus on e2-ing, I’m lost

[wide knot]

Thanks guys Im demoralised enough im not gonna pull

[timber finch]

just wait for wang/kalter/trag banners and ulpianus in shop

[wintry steppe]

Trago and (maybe) gracebearer I'd say

[ocean mulch]

Was Mylnar changed to stainless in orienteering?

[timber finch]

no, nymph/naran/mlynar got changed, stainless/ulpi/trag were always here

[stray gust]

guys how good is self select 6* ticket if I were to get ulpipi?

[mossy cipher]

Got it thanks

[lyric lagoon]

not very, just cert him later this year

[timber finch]

depend of your rooster but that's expensive for someone in cert shop soonish

[stray gust]

how soon?

[wraith shoal]

in 8 months ish maybe

[timber finch]

"soon" in this place is up to 11 month yeah

[lyric lagoon]

not like you would need him if you have pram2 for laneholding

[stray gust]

in that sense a lot of things can be skipped also

[worldly fern]

is this a good team to survive until wangs banner?

[errant sparrow]

Does anyone have a guide that actually works for OS-S-3? My units keep shifting despite in their videos the units are not. Don’t really understand why either

[ebon plaza]

if you're following the steps correctly and the enemy units are behaving the same way that shouldn't happen, maybe you're using the wrong tool?

[tranquil vector]

are these events wehere you have to team up with otehrs common?

[fathom nest]

If they're in the avalanche zone and have space to move, they will when it activates

[errant sparrow]

Maybe their pram is fully maxed and mine isn’t

[ebon plaza]

are the enemies moving the same way?

[craggy belfry]

How are you LV 42 😭 with 1e2

[errant sparrow]

Idk lol, can someone just please send a guide that works or worked for them

[raven ermine]

Are you using the right device ?

[mossy cipher]

I’ve been playing very passively, I haven’t had a whole lot of time recently and I wanted to start making progress

[errant sparrow]

The guides don’t use the device I am pretty sure

[ebon plaza]

mate the video guides work for people, if it doesn't work for you then you gotta figure out why

[errant sparrow]

Hence why I’m here lmfao

[hidden nacelle]

well ive yet to find guides that didnt work, unless i used the wrong ops. which map are you stuck on im not caught up

[ebon plaza]

sash2, pram2, tragodia, ulpianus, in whatever order you'd like

[lament loom]

Just remember that guides only serve as guidelines, you don't use the exact ops (unless you happen to have them) as mirrored in the guides. You use your brain to make the adjustments accordingly to what the lineup needs and what stage conditions.

[craggy belfry]

Problely paraxmix alter 1st
Idk much about logos

Sikverash E2 is good but is it really needed not really e1s2 skill is already greate

But paramix will let you solo alot of anihalton stages without support making you save time as you can auto deploy and have the auto proxy card he usable

I would say to build tragoida 1st if you like other gamemodes though like IS

[ebon plaza]

yeah so can you tell us what are the differences between your run and the guide? i'm asking you if the enemies are moving the same way and you aren't even trying to look

[lament loom]

Say, for example, a guide that involves an operator that laneholds well (Ulpianus for example), but you don't own him. Then you find alternatives with your current lineup that does similar job (defender + medic?). Or maybe it's the lack of DPS? Read the enemies' stats and their abilities, as well as stage mechanics.

[stray gust]

not to be sarcastic, but his pfp is patrick. That might explain why.

[static glade]

When penance gain barrier does it scale with her current HP if its affected by inspiration

[stray gust]

penance barrier scales with % of her max hp

[static glade]

I see I see then....

[stray gust]

don't look at the barrier bar over her hp bar it is just that inaccurate.

[wintry steppe]

slight gameplay unrelated, but how does prize pool in workofsaintess work?

[ebon plaza]

hold on i just finished os-s-3 isn't this just a pram2 shill stage

can just abuse top right mushroom and have her clean house everywhere else

[hidden nacelle]

if you put it that way every stage is a pram shill stage
I dont really think shill exists in arknights

[ebon plaza]

yeah shill might not have been the word for it

[grave fulcrum]

how many rounds does the new event goes on for?

[severe crypt]

13 + boss round

[broken flame]

What does chip pack etcher give again?

[severe crypt]

Gives you enough chips to e2 a single op of the class chosen

[broken flame]

gotcha ty!

[hidden nacelle]

e2 a 6 star

[hidden nacelle]

do you know when the ai uses hoshi alt skill3 part 2
cause it triggers s3 when enemy in range then holds it like for a while before deciding she needs to die

[severe crypt]

I’m not using hoshialt so idk 🥹

[vital kelp]

i dont think the ai knows to automatically end skill, so no

[hidden nacelle]

the ai keeps killing hoshialt for me
so there is a trigger

[ashen surge]

Between Logos and Ascalon, who have higher priority given that I already have Pramalt?

[glass mural]

Ascalon.

[ashen surge]

Ic ic

[lavish ledge]

akkord viable?

[ebon plaza]

okay yeah pram2 and sash2 can duo os-s-3, not sure about cm though

[hidden wolf]

Should i module ulpi or sash2 or pram2 first

[oblique cypress]

professional backreaders in this chat

[tired ledge]

yet bro didn't even answer the question

[ebon plaza]

sash2 has no mod so not that guy, pram2 can be mod1 and then ulpi

[dapper torrent]

So in stronghold, for the boss we're separated into two duos, do both duos damage the same health bar on the boss, or are there two bosses?

[glass nexus]

is this mode hard? im new and scared

[dapper torrent]

Try it solo first, it should be doable

[wraith shoal]

scared of what exactly. It wont rob you

[timber finch]

you can borrow 20 units, and add 4 of your own

[dapper torrent]

It's really fun actually

[glass nexus]

ok

[median lake]

Worth building mudrock if ion have any other defenders except the 4* ones ?

[severe crypt]

Not really no, cuora is more than enough

[valid stream]

^ yea

[severe crypt]

Most of us vets don’t even use traditional defenders generally

[still surge]

Tips for 16-16 adverse 2nd phase? I’m already running ines and sashalter

[coarse gull]

Wrong server mb (did anyone see it)

[quick jolt]

i did

[crystal flame]

Boss never came…..anyone else come across this bug?

[dapper torrent]

Someone posted the same issue on reddit, sounds like a connection problem to me

[glass nexus]

is reed alt worth getting

[radiant mantle]

She's free in like 6 months

Just be patient

[hidden wolf]

Is this girl temu ines

[pallid shoal]

Any idea when Ulpi will be in certs shop?

[hidden wolf]

Soon

[pallid shoal]

And Vulpis?

[quick jolt]

basically. in some IS themes shes more worth using than ines too

[fathom nest]

Just look up when their event was and add 2 years

Ulpianus has a chance to be near the end of the year if he doesn't get skipped or anything

[hidden wolf]

Someone sent release date and shop cert release sometimes ago

[fathom nest]

Please just ask using their names, we don't need the image

[quick jolt]

probably just predictions because this info isnt possible to know

[hidden wolf]

No im talking about previous ops

[quick jolt]

ah

[hidden wolf]

Does she see invis like ines

[quick jolt]

no, shes for dp gen

[jaunty perch]

The new banner is worth it for a player with no Ulpipi, Trag, and Zuo Le right?

[ashen surge]

What's ascalon's best skill?

[lyric lagoon]

2

[timber finch]

what's blaze/tinman best skills if anyone know 🙏

[fathom nest]

s2 on both

[fathom nest]

Swire might be a better pick than Zuo if you're interested in IS at all

Don't go further than the first 6 star pulled if you decide to do it, though

[jaunty perch]

I haven't tried IS yet but I guess for future proofing it would be better thanks

[livid crest]

40 pulls in and I'm down back to 0 again on this orienteering banner, should I pull till the next 6*? I'm sure I'll have enough for wang by then by clearing much of main story and side stuff

[fathom nest]

Have you gotten a 6 star from those pulls already?

[livid crest]

Nah, I think I'll pass and save the pity for tragodia's rerun I guess. And no, not a single one so far

[fathom nest]

Shouldn't have pulled unless you were planning to get at least one of them to start with. Watch you get an offrate from Trag's banner instead of him and not have pulls afterwards

[wanton meadow]

Something something flexing pulling trag in 2 single pulls something something

[livid crest]

Well, my hope were just that, plain hope with less pity cap, been awfully average my pull history has been since I bought the starter pack with myrtle contract in it

3 months is enough time to clear main story plus some side events right?

[vital kelp]

sure

would it be possible for me to get like... 250 more pull from now to wang banner if i rock farm

[rain forge]

What event is TW on rn

[vital kelp]

midway through mantra

[rain forge]

then maybe

[livid crest]

Far I know, rock farm isn't that big gain, about 3 or so pulls for a full month or week I forgot somewhere I got that info

[rain forge]

You’ll have to skip salter though

[vital kelp]

oh i have 350 pull rn, i was just worried about the collabs coming later

im pulling zima2 as well as pulling 50% banner from historic average seems to take 150+

i might do the brokee pulling method of only pulling after 24 free pulls

[livid crest]

New annihilation had its first time clear bonus of 1.5k orundum in total right?

[vital kelp]

and skip salter once i get pram

[wide knot]

Anyone planning to pull on the orienteering banner? If so can you show me

I need to scratch my addiction

[pale glen]

not recommended especially if you have any of the operators

[sage torrent]

Bad question: how good/bad is Pallas

[wide knot]

I know that's why I am saying if anyone can do it haha

[pale glen]

I did, I got ulpi

[severe crypt]

She’s baaaad
Only some use in base

[wide knot]

How many pulls?

[pale glen]

60 pulls so kinda down the drain in my savings lol

[sage torrent]

Alright thnaks

[wanton meadow]

Very dated 6*, useful in base but otherwise just eh

[wide knot]

Oh yeah that hits the spot thanks

[pale glen]

bro is satisfied from other's suffering😭

[wanton meadow]

Tragodia in 2 single pulls

[wide knot]

Bruh its not that im satisfied because you pulled on the banner I would have had the same reaction if you had him on 10

[pale glen]

lol

[wide knot]

Okay stop too much I might pull

[hybrid bluff]

how do I promote my elite in the new gamemode? buying dupes didn't help

[vital kelp]

2 dupes

[hybrid bluff]

damn 2 dupes

[dense veldt]

what mod and mastery for ulpi?

[vital kelp]

s3m3 mod3

[raven ermine]

Mod1 for ulpi

Mod3 is like 5% damage increase for s3, it's very minor

[vital kelp]

moar healing tho

[still surge]

we ever gonna see Milton again? he had hella good art

[winter lynx]

is there a specific stage that's most efficient for farming the event currency?

[raven ermine]

Yeah but it's very premium
You only really see the difference with s2, so unless you plan to m6 mod3, better to just get the 20% from mod1 and dip

[ebon plaza]

no it's 1:1 sanity to currency

[winter lynx]

oh nice, very thoughtful of them

[nova cave]

What skill should i focus on Ulpianus?

[raven ermine]

Scroll up a bit

[vital kelp]

this is why s3 sucks!! no improved healing 😔

[raven ermine]

[flat hamlet]

Considering these are my built units so far, it's still worth it to get lemuen mod3 right? Just got her requirement satisfied by clearing 13-13

[vital kelp]

fr tho, are people really gonna be using s3 when ulpian's role is a laneholder?

i feel like its more niche than s2

[raven ermine]

Mod 2 for lemuen, mod 2 for pram and mod delta 3 for logos

[wanton meadow]

Yes, s3 is the better skill unless you're specifically putting him somewhere across the map alone with no help

[vital kelp]

since little self sustain and not regetting to max hp after coming back with s3, i feel like hes... comparable with

[flat hamlet]

Yeah working on lmd for pram2 xD
And logos is in chapter 14, will do it when I get there
Thanks!

[azure pivot]

Is all the ulpianus recs assuming gladia mod3?

[wanton meadow]

All ulpianus recs here are assuming no gladiia

[raven ermine]

Outside of some very specific situations, there's really nothing s2 does better than s3
S3 has a lot of survivability baked in, and no warmup
You can trade most elites during the stun duration, you have iframes twice, and repositioning to go fetch targets and come back to a safe position or in the range of a healer

Also a pretty short cycle

[lament loom]

Ulpi S3 is such a goofy ability, the fact that it counts as a Summon for Fowlbeast and Summon relics

[wanton meadow]

Honestly the one thing s2 is probably good for over s3 is if you specifically need the block 3, cos sustain you can always fix with a pocket healer

[worn drift]

where can I find which operator have the base skill to reduce skill train time?
I need the sniper one

[raven ermine]

That's W if you mean s3 trainers

[lament loom]

Irene I think?

[raven ermine]

Irene for m1-m2-start of m3 then w

[worn drift]

Im upgrading her tho and I dont have Irene

[raven ermine]

Check the #r-i-i-c combo spreadsheet then

[worn drift]

bet bet thanks

[vital kelp]

its just the way its coded

[raven ermine]

It's also hitscan which is relevant sometimes

[worn drift]

whats the average LMD produce in 243 base? mine is at 45k now

[vital kelp]

i got 65000 average

[severe crypt]

That’s kinda the minimum

[vital kelp]

good base should be 55k+

243 should be better in everything but exp production than 252

[wanton meadow]

No?

[livid osprey]

I have a friend getting into the game. Is the eyja bagpipe surtr saria selector still around or no?

[vital kelp]

assuming 3 gold 1 exp compared to 3 gold 2 exp

yes? because u cant have all the fac + tp max level and rotation is better with level 5 dorm

[severe crypt]

Ended early march

[split sphinx]

No. Just reroll tragodia they'll be set

[livid osprey]

Damn gotcha. So next one is the one on 7th anni

[wanton meadow]

Even with 6 hour rotations and less worker slots, 4 factory still outputs less than 5

[worn drift]

need some work on my base then

[split sphinx]

In 6 months maybe

[severe crypt]

Well, it’s moreso just a general limited banner for us, not anni

[vital kelp]

yes, thats why less exp

2 exp fac vs 1 exp fac

[lament loom]

252 base is consistently better so

[severe crypt]

I’d advise switching to 252

[worn drift]

already max everything

[livid osprey]

Was meaning this selector cuz it has surtr and dude wants surtr so xD

[severe crypt]

Yeah that’s for us in 6 months, but it’s not during our anni

[severe crypt]

Just downgrade ez

[livid osprey]

Ah i see. Whens our anni?

[severe crypt]

Mid January

[split sphinx]

That's not a eyja bagpipe surtr saria selector

[worn drift]

arent some of em cant downgrade or sum

[livid osprey]

Ye but it has surtr xD

[wanton meadow]

Which means even LMD, less xp for 243 compared to 252. Both 252 and 243 use lvl3 TP so even LMD

[severe crypt]

Just downgrade the others

[split sphinx]

Reed2 is a better pick

[vital kelp]

252 tends to use level 2 fac to utilize proviso for one more level 3 fac

level 3 tp with proviso still wins over level 2 tp with proviso

[worn drift]

I tried before but I dont think I have enough power because of some of the max facilities. I read before that it bricked ur acc or sum

[severe crypt]

Just downgrade the other rooms, 252 max right is a thing

[raven ermine]

If you mean max right side, yeah 243 tend to produce slightly more lmd
The difference is in exp/gold prod
If max left, 252 is virtually the same than 243 with an extra fac

[wanton meadow]

That's even assuming 252 max right, the standard rn is 252 2313

[raven ermine]

Well, max right is pretty common

[livid osprey]

Absolutely. But man wants his wife so who am i to stop him

[severe crypt]

243 is also high maintenance no?

[wanton meadow]

Yep to output optimally 243 wants 6 hour shifts

Otherwise you waste the power of lvl5 dorms

[vital kelp]

check here for level 2 tp proviso vs level 3 tp proviso comparison

[ebon plaza]

who should i get from the selector voucher coming for the anniversary? i was thinking reedic
https://www.krooster.com/u/brave-ochre-quartz-22c6

[worn drift]

maybe my lmd is low cause I dont have proviso

[vital kelp]

sounds about right

[wanton meadow]

If you're using 2x 90% teams and not droning tp then yea it checks out

[worn drift]

[split sphinx]

Proviso alone pumps your lmd numbers by like 10k

[sly compass]

Can thorns attack aerial units?

[vital kelp]

not with s2 active

[severe crypt]

Like any sane person uses s2

[worn drift]

is proviso only come from headhunting?

[severe crypt]

Currently yeah, and from the anniversary selectors

[worn drift]

gonna pray to god for her to come home then or wait for the selector

[wanton meadow]

Even if you don't have access to proviso, don't be afraid of droning TP if you need more LMD

Also if you have tequila you can swap tequila in before you drone

Then take him out after

[worn drift]

woah a drone strat, didnt know that one. thanks

[raven ermine]

Before proviso you drone what you need the most
After proviso/shamteq you drone tp
You could drone tp all the time and put tequila in when you drone, but that's tedious

[humble arrow]

For the silverash plus ulp do you just spam ulp on cooldown

[serene marlin]

who do i pick on kernal banner? want to spend my vanilla tickets

[raven ermine]

No, you wait until the module icon is halfway through the animation
That's the most reliable setup i could find

[humble arrow]

I found 3 tiles distance spamming does more dmg than point blank spamming

[serene marlin]

i was thinking exusiai or saria

[humble arrow]

Half way like it just starting to appear?

Cuz it seems the timing is not the same for all distances

[ebon plaza]

if you don't have any other guardians then you could go for saria, if you don't feel the need you could also do archetto for IS

[wanton meadow]

Unless you are desperate for base op upgrades, just hold onto your kernel tickets for a better banner

[serene marlin]

ah okie

[humble arrow]

Just save they are all quite powercrept

[lunar apex]

its 1.1s or less after deployment iirc

[raven ermine]

Halfway after it appeared already
It flashes slightly or smth, you click at this time for double slash to register

[humble arrow]

I see

Also using ptlopsis is making it so hard to time

[worn drift]

archetto still used in IS6 right? sometime I see her more often than wis

[raven ermine]

Well it should be the same if you're using an indicator that is not sp based

[severe crypt]

That’s cuz people get tired of using Wis, not that archetto is better

[humble arrow]

Wis is sadly not the strongest anymore

[severe crypt]

Obv in is6

[ebon plaza]

funny range and atk speed

[humble arrow]

But shes still very viable definately

[fathom gale]

yes, archetto holds a lot of value especially now that wis can't really abuse atk speed in is6.

[wanton meadow]

That's cos if you want an ez IS6 carry, exu2 is preferred specifically for IS6

[worn drift]

fun to watch honestly

[wanton meadow]

So the ones that play wis in IS5 would just spam exu2 in IS6

[humble arrow]

Wis still carrying me in is6 personally

[worn drift]

she got nerf or sum?

[humble arrow]

No theres just better units

[severe crypt]

Moreso is6 doesn’t have the insta win relics that made Wis so good

[humble arrow]

Also hand of rumble is not frew anymore

[fathom gale]

no nerfs, more like wis' main value was hyper nuking with 50 million atk speed. cant find that in is6 anymore so there are other preferred units.

[humble arrow]

But dont get it twisted wisadel kills everything before floor 5

[raven ermine]

No, is5 just guaranteed it
Now you have to rely on highrolls to achieve the same thing

[wanton meadow]

Tldr IS5 gave players the ability to mold relic rng to their favor, so wis can really stack the deck in her favor. IS6 has more rng so instantly powerful carries that work against everything like exu2 are preferred

[humble arrow]

Hand of rumble in is6 or nah i dont see and hands

[fathom gale]

i dont think any of the hands are in is6, at least rn?

[lunar apex]

dlc2

[worn drift]

oh she top tier in IS5 below but not anymore in IS6. got it

[humble arrow]

Trag start talon d14 why

[lunar apex]

they added king set and hands in dlc 2 of is6
at least thats in CN server rn

[humble arrow]

No like why not d15

[lunar apex]

I dont work at HG

[worn drift]

who should I pick other than archetto? want to spend the free pull

[humble arrow]

They all bad dont

[worn drift]

aw

[fathom gale]

mountain ig? if you really want to.

[wanton meadow]

IS picks: archetto
RA picks: passenger, eunectes
Base picks: flametail, eunectes, pallas

[humble arrow]

Not the mountain

Passenger is not good in ra what is this

[wanton meadow]

Passenger is good for RA thx to the RA module

[next thorn]

Do we know who's next in distinction cert? Or we never know until it switches

[worn drift]

Im done with RA so maybe one the base op

[lunar apex]

@humble arrow

[humble arrow]

I dont see it is it hidden

Would have been nice for my ra playthrough...

[raven ermine]

It's very good, ts has so many angles

[raven ermine]

Do you have weedy, viviana, fartooth, wild mane, ashlock ?

[worn drift]

nope

[raven ermine]

Then you won't find value in any base pick here sadly
Pallas ig, but it's a stretch, its by far the worst value here compared to the other two

Just a slightly better vermeil worker compared to the competition

[sly compass]

can SAsh1 attack aerial units?

[worn drift]

shucks, maybe its a sign to save the free pulls

[uneven silo]

Is ulpianus is coming back anytime soon after this banner where we can select him?

[ebon plaza]

prolly not for a while

[uneven silo]

Dam

[void shore]

Is there an usual schedule on announcements for when and who will be coming out next to the Yellow Cert Shop? Such as the day before, at like maybe 8:00 AM in the morning?

[split sphinx]

standard rotation banner always rotates every 2 weeks on friday(?) at 4:00 game time

[void shore]

Aight, thanks for the heads up

[lament loom]

Yah, Lord archetype.

Yo, I need that Passenger mod for my RA playthrough 😭

Me rn:
Owning unraised Eunectes atm

Say, is there information of RA3 release?

[delicate locust]

passenger has an RA mod?

[vivid yew]

Yes, on CN server

[pallid magnet]

how do i get different operators for friend support? whenever i refresh it ends up cycling the same people

[humble arrow]

When the ulpianus module is half the size it should be is the timing

[slate ridge]

You just have to keep refreshing
Its biased to roll your friends more often even though you dont have buddy prio set

[pallid magnet]

its not my friends. its just the same random people ive been seeing since last night no matter how much i refresh it

[hidden nacelle]

seems like your friends don't have units up, at least in the classes your checking out

[pallid magnet]

yeah im trying to get them by refreshing but its not giving new options

[slate ridge]

Theres also level 20-60 restriction where youre forced to be with players near your level

[hidden nacelle]

the restriction shouldn't apply to friends

[pallid magnet]

oh that might be it. when i was lower level it was giving me more options

[lofty vale]

Can’t wait for “build for RA”

[dapper torrent]

When you're lower level, you get a lot of strong borrows. When you level up a bit, you'll only see people near your level, unless you add them as friends

If you need any specific units, you can prob just ask here and I'm sure someone will add you

[pale tapir]

#friend-id has plenty

[pallid magnet]

does anyone have a m3 trag?

[hidden nacelle]

no trag sucks no one has him up for support

[lament loom]

[pallid magnet]

i have him but i cant build him yet for the ex cm im trying

[dapper torrent]

Add me and I'll put mine up, just need a minute to finish this stage

[lament loom]

Peak name btw, made me check again

[pallid magnet]

alright, thanks

[dapper torrent]

It's up

[forest parcel]

Are the Mujica members worth e2 other than sakiko

[pale tapir]

I'd say only if you play bandoriknights
or have nothing better
mutsumi, uika, umiri generally worth it, nyamu can be forgotten if trying to be efficient

[ornate sable]

Which is Better? Sash2 S2 or S3?

[dapper torrent]

They're both useful. I prefer S2 for general play

[ornate sable]

Like -11DP to all Ops is kinda busted early play

[urban sleet]

Use whichever you are comfier eith, just uh dont get influemced by yt memeslop

[ornate sable]

I was wondering which skill I want to specialize first

[dapper torrent]

Oh, prob S3 then. S2 doesn't gain much from masteries, just more dmg

[ornate sable]

I see. Thanks

[sour plover]

i have lin, rosmontis, nymph, hellagur, vigil, are any of these worth building

[rocky pilot]

S3 for most things and s2 when is needed or is

[unborn flint]

Quick question, if I buy the AsteAlter potentials do I get something from the rerun? Cause I don't intend to use her.

[urban sleet]

Nymph niche, rosmontid gppd for IS

[rocky pilot]

Don’t bother with hellagur and vigil

[unborn flint]

Lin is tanky as hell...

[urban sleet]

Biy all pots now+buy all pots in rerun= gold cert rain

[unborn flint]

Word, long term investment.

[lyric lagoon]

buy all furniture as well (not furniture parts btw, just furniture)

[gaunt vapor]

how do u get a decen team in stronghold alliance if u missing a lot like passanger and stuff?

[unborn flint]

ty friens

[frozen dawn]

How many gold certs would I get if I buy astgen2 pots again when event reruns

[unborn flint]

70 apparently.

[frozen dawn]

oh that's nice

[unborn flint]

Definitely worthwhile for longterm investment.

[forest parcel]

Is penance worth building?

[humble arrow]

os s 3 kinda hard without hoshialt

[bitter hornet]

is incursion point the red box?

[pale tapir]

yes
objective point is blue box

[gaunt vapor]

Do we have a channel for stronghold? Do I need level and max modules on my on Operator for this event? Or it auto max as long as I have the operator ? I wanna do Kjerga team

[pale tapir]

#stronghold-hall

as long as u have em u have em
they're promoted in the mode
you can also borrow ops in the set list (up to 20)

[gaunt vapor]

So no need to waste lmb and mats to upgrade them right ? But having the actual Operator is what it matters?

The borrowed one got no skills tho?

[pale tapir]

each tier has a maximum level, promotion level, skill level, module level
if borrowed ops had no skills they would be useless lmao

and I mean the mode gives you ops you don't have
even modules you don't have
like I don't have andreana and I can still use her up to e2lv60 sl7 mod1 when promoted in the gamemode
borrowed op just lets you swap out the default elite operator (like misery or touch) for actual operators like texter or eyjaberry

[glossy oasis]

Can't find Gnosis😭
Who can help me

[long owl]

Anyone here received the 600 orundums from the survey?

[pale tapir]

try this

[chilly granite]

The kernel pool is normally bigger than this, right? (Asking since we’re getting freebie kernel pulls.)

[glossy oasis]

most of them have changed their support unit
almost no one keep Gnosis in support unit

[coarse notch]

kernel selector only takes a portion of the kernel pool yea

[pale tapir]

you have their discord ping them ask them to change it
if you ask nicely people are usually happy to set it for u

[modest fable]

Can sakiko be a thorns replacement

[chilly granite]

Okie dokes. Idk if I have any kernel op I’d want, but I’ll save these for later. Ty!

[modest fable]

So s2 sakiko replaces thorns got it

[native cargo]

is nowell good

[pale tapir]

are you doing afk?

[modest fable]

Prettyyyy much yeah

[pale tapir]

ok yeah s3 is like a zillion times better than s2 but if afk then yes s2
then set it to piano/organ depending on enemy type

[hoary ruin]

Try Saki S3, it's like 5x better than S2.

[modest fable]

I know but I’m doing afk

[glossy oasis]

Im trying, but no response so far

[modest fable]

S2 just makes my life somewhat easier y’know

[pale tapir]

just wait
you can refresh the list too

[native cargo]

whos better tp op paprika or firewhistle

[raw wigeon]

Saki S1 triggering Umiri S1 is actually a lot of afk damage

[coarse notch]

paprika in shamare team

[drowsy hollow]

What skill do I m3 for tragodia?

[raw wigeon]

all?

[fathom nest]

Main skill is s2 but all 3 have their uses

[robust pond]

I'm at the verge of losing it. I got tragolia. I can't use him.

[turbid ocean]

s1 usage is far less but there is some niches

[robust pond]

Is there any way to get blue chips before the daily reset.

[fathom nest]

IS/RA/💳

[turbid ocean]

blue chips only really event shop, RA

not IS iirc

[robust pond]

Is RA??? 🔫🔫🔫

[turbid ocean]

IS monthlies only purple

[fathom nest]

Ah right

[turbid ocean]

Reclamation Algorithm

[robust pond]

Idk what that is. I'm doing it ig.

[turbid ocean]

2nd to rightmost tab in the terminal

[reef zinc]

Does anyone got a good strategy to beat OS-S-2? Im struggling...

[robust pond]

Oh the sand base building simulator. How do I get blue chips in it.

[thick token]

Use avalanche to kill lower left, block upper left, kill the rest with lappalt s3

[paper needle]

should i save it for now? or should i give it to ely?

[wintry steppe]

Save

[coarse notch]

you look like you're new
pins -> roadless camelot -> beginners guide

[reef zinc]

Uhhhh ig I can try dat

[paper needle]

yeah, this is a new acc

[fathom nest]

Play, get points, buy them from the shop. Going to take you a while, though

[solid scaffold]

archetto goated in IS? was planning on buying in gold cert

[pale tapir]

goated no decent sure
if you don't have offrec ops to take advantage of her not really worth getting tbh
she's not bad though

[harsh marsh]

she becomes progressively better the more offensive recov units u have

but at the start, she's decent

[pale tapir]

the long range is nice

[vapid breach]

hello this might be due to my lack of reading comprehension, but how do I increase the stacks of these faction buff things in stronghold protocol

[solid scaffold]

ok ok bc im reaching like higher dif in IS and obv W alter cant carry bc def scaling

[modest axle]

genuinely how do you do ts bro 🥀

[pale tapir]

is that S-1?
it's not nvm

[reef sparrow]

when picking ops in the start, u can see their factions/bonus, just stack lots of it

[elder ermine]

is Zima the Raging Tide after Wang?

[coarse notch]

basically right before 7th anniv

[thick token]

Trag carried me thru this one

[pale tapir]

certain operator kits will help you stack a lot quickly too
read em

[vapid breach]

so for example, i have 8 stacks of swift, can you tell me why its 8 with vulpis and texas?

oh nvm i see

[pale tapir]

vulpipi and texas are just activating "swift", you can see the 2/2
the stacks are gained separately from just having them

[modest axle]

the stupid ass mushroom motherfuckers are actual TERRORISTS!

[frosty flame]

We dont know what the next limited will be right? After wang

[vapid breach]

is there a best faction to use?

[pale tapir]

idk I suck at the mode check out #stronghold-hall and maybe ask there

[reef sparrow]

kaltsit alter

[modest axle]

genuinely bro how tf do you do ts

[vapid breach]

okay thank you

[pale tapir]

fellas in #strategy can help u better
but generally more dmg

[frosty flame]

Ooo I totally forgot

[modest pumice]

Uuuh I did a single pull and got a Tragodia, how good is he in a beginner account (I cant E2 anyone rn)

[frosty flame]

Tragodia is awesome

[dense fulcrum]

Fellas is tragodia worth risking my saved up pulls or should I hold on and wait for wang

[modest pumice]

Braindead awesome or have to think awesome?

[frosty flame]

And he gets good use out of skill2 so even e1 he can do stuff

[pale tapir]

he can do his stuff at e1
you have to think about where to put the cat awesome
otherwise braindead

[modest pumice]

Oh he is the cat guy, the cat pulls right?

[frosty flame]

Yes

[dense fulcrum]

Fellas is tragodia worth risking my saved up pulls or should I hold on and wait for wang

[modest pumice]

Ok ty I will level him a bit then

[ivory terrace]

r u trying to explicitly get trag? if so wait, he will have rerun solo banner

[frosty flame]

Not if its rhe only character you are willing to get

[dense fulcrum]

When?

@frosty flame Aight thanks

[ivory terrace]

approx one year after his release

[dense fulcrum]

Kk

[native bough]

As someone that uses skadi guard and gladiia (i like them) should i try to get ulpianus?

[dense fulcrum]

Yes

[ivory terrace]

depends on ur pull prios

[coarse notch]

just wait for ulpi in cert shop

[pale tapir]

if he's the only one you want it's not worth dumping pulls hoping for him specifically

[zealous grail]

Is the current banner worth pulling for?

[knotty prairie]

what skill should i m3 in order for tragodia, and should i module 3 him or nahhh

[paper needle]

i js read the guide after day 3 playing, and i took warfarin before... based on my ops list, do i still have to take SA? and ptilopsis on my day 7? ill take specter on day 7 and e2 her immediately

[pale tapir]

trag likes lv88 mod2 or lv82 mod3 for 1 NI proc from s2 cat on elites and bosses I believe it was
personally lv88 mod2 sounds cheaper to me because fewer modblocks

[knotty prairie]

so i prioritize s2 on m3 then, alright thanks a lot

[pale tapir]

you don't "have to" pick anyone, but ptilo/silence/SA are certainly the most recommended ops to select from their respective selectors
by virtue of everyone else being worse in performance

[paper needle]

oh okay, then i know whom to take later on day 7

[pale tapir]

also fyi exia is significantly more expensive than krooster while being similar in performance
and surtr and sash really want e2 to be useful
and tequila is free and will help your dmg at e1
just things to keep in mind

[paper needle]

okay, thanks for the information ill keep that in mind

[pale tapir]

oh and pramerita uses s2 in most situations
s3 is only used occassionally if needed (good skill tho)

[candid quiver]

Uhhh I’m new this the characters I got rn and just got this from blue ticket which ones I use?

[paper needle]

pram s2 can afk right? i saw someone do chernobog with pram s2

[pale tapir]

would start by reading beginner guide in roadless in pins
free warfie is nice to have, good atk buffer

[slow flower]

how do you make the final stage of stronghold protocl not crash?

[fallow hinge]

How do I actually use Ulpianus S3? do I use it as close as possible to avoid going too far or the opposite to like snipe high value targets?

[pale tapir]

try low performance level 30fps and disabling SMAA
if still crashing get a better device ig rip

[candid quiver]

roadless?

[pale tapir]

where's fae when u need em
open pins, scroll down, click on "roadless camelot" spreadsheet

[slow flower]

I'm literally on the same computer I use to play mmos... this is disgraceful

[candid quiver]

ok thx

[pale tapir]

maybe allocate more ram to your emulator if possible? that's more of a tech issue at that point

[candid quiver]

I found it thx

[calm raptor]

Does ulpi need his module?

[drifting prairie]

helpful but not necessary. LV3 Recommended for using S2 daily WITHOUT Gladiia. Module is not necessary in AH team. For use in IS, LV1 is recommended

[calm raptor]

Ic, thankss

[pale tapir]

fraz can u explain this too

[lament forge]

should i use LDplayer or google play games if i wanna play arknights on pc?

[drifting prairie]

im a little confused by the question, but i use it to just bring him directly to elite enemies? also you can just disable the skill if you dont like the positioning idk

[thick token]

Just activate it when the enemy reaches the tile you want him on lol

[fallow hinge]

yeah that's my question whether I bring Ulpi right at the elite enemies or get the enemies as close as possible so Ulpi doesnt go too far

[thick token]

Whats "too far"

[drifting prairie]

btw the skill stops when it hits an enemy, like it wont go past the first enemy even though it says 6 tiles

[drifting prairie]

isnt ldplayer optimized for ak or something? idk i use bluestacks silicon if i wanna play on pc

[thorny atlas]

as a new player is it worth pulling on the orienteering headhunting if i have less than 150 pulls or will ulpianus and tragodia come back later on?

[dreamy hill]

Hi I got a top operator tag with melee caster starter and shift which should I choose?

[drifting prairie]

who do you need

like top op + caster has ifrit and ceobe who are both good casters, but if you want weedy go top op shift

[drifting prairie]

not worth imo bc wang is coming in 3 months and will allow you to cheat your way through ak, this banner is kinda bait

[thorny atlas]

alr

[dreamy hill]

These are my current 6*

[drifting prairie]

they also changed it from cn server, the options on the orienteering are kinda shi* other than trag

[drifting prairie]

lowk i would go top op melee and gamble for like surtr, mudrock, or someone else,

[coarse notch]

shift for weedy

[drifting prairie]

shift is still a little niche tho? i doubt they're finding themselves in a lot of situations where they need it

[coarse notch]

and melee is filled by abysmal dogshit so

[drifting prairie]

they could gamble for 33% chance for ceobe?

[coarse notch]

id say ceobe is both more niche than weedy and largely absent from late game now

[drifting prairie]

doesnt her moedule make her relevant again

[coarse notch]

it amplifies her niche sure but you still dont encounter that kind of def/res pairing in gen content

[proven swan]

when will kaltsit maid skin appear again in the shop?

[coarse notch]

and in advanced content newer ops have largely supplanted her role

[drifting prairie]

when next season of anime airs

[ivory terrace]

wasnt that smth u buy for 25 bucks or smth
anime pack

[drifting prairie]

true, then just get weedy for is ig

[drifting prairie]

$30, which is lowk crazy

[coarse notch]

you're right that weedy is probably not gonna be really used by them but lets be real with pram2 and lemuen none of the options that arent niche operators like weedy are gonna be useful

[ivory terrace]

try 25%
passenger

[drifting prairie]

yeah, surtr might really help their acct, but its a massive gamble still

honestly every 6* in recruitment is kinda ass ngl, the only one i use regularly is hoshi

[wintry rapids]

If you sell Elite OG Blaze do you get Elite Blaze Alter

[wanton meadow]

Also having weedy for base is very handy

[drifting prairie]

||idfk what you're talking abt lol||

[wintry rapids]

Stronghold protocol

[wanton meadow]

Stronghold protocol

[severe crypt]

That’s not how it should work, selling a unit just gives 1 gold

[drifting prairie]

oh, then no

[lament forge]

can i not make it full screen in LDplayer?

[drifting prairie]

you can

[dreamy hill]

@drifting prairie @coarse notch thank you

[proven swan]

yeah i guess idk, will it appearn anytime soon?

[ivory terrace]

wdk
maybe if there is a season 4 set in victoria

[proven swan]

welp

[drifting prairie]

honestly, i dont think so, they've gone silent about the anime for so long now

[devout spire]

just x5ed os-10 twice before realizing it gives no drops
why---

[urban sleet]

[proven swan]

damn alrighty then

[ivory terrace]

cant rly help u there
pretty sure the stage sanity cost is like 10

these days the farming stages cost 21 each

[drifting prairie]

so expensive

[safe tundra]

that has been the pattern for the past 5 years tho

[vale finch]

Hmm do you combine operator's to strengthen them in stronghold protocol or am I confusing it with another game mode?

Also does it usually take that long to finish a round 😞

[ivory terrace]

that is SSS?
