help

[solemn elk]

i just e2'd her!! :D

[broken flame]

does IS give T2 or is it all high tier, I forgor

[hexed adder]

T3 higher

[opaque remnant]

Get S3M3 and mod for Wis

[broken flame]

rip 🥀

[wanton meadow]

1. Get wis to E2 lv60 and unlock her module, as well as her s3 materies
2. Do the same with pram2 but with her s2 masteries instead

[opaque remnant]

The only shortage of mats I have are the T1 mats

[solemn elk]

okay ! thank you guys

[wanton meadow]

Also base ops doko

[opaque remnant]

There’s literally no stages for them how the fuck am I supposed to stock on them

[shadow bay]

benchmark for usable units to raise is e1 sl7

also invest in base

[ebon plaza]

mod for wis and pram, e2 sash, and then build base slaves that you can find in pins under roadless camelot

[hexed adder]

T1 usually 1-7 angle

[wanton meadow]

So basically you 1-7 and pray for siderolls

[solemn elk]

ohh thanks! theres quite a lot to do

[opaque remnant]

The dreaded 1-7

[thorny edge]

guys is chalter good

[hexed adder]

She is fine

[odd sky]

/material #bot-spam

[opaque remnant]

Yes, Chen the dawnstreak is good

[thorny edge]

whats that

[opaque remnant]

No, what is a holungday?

[hexed adder]

Oh u meant the ch3n. Yeah she is great

[thorny edge]

no i meant chalter

[odd sky]

chen qianyu?

[opaque remnant]

The CN one?

[hexed adder]

Chalter is fine

[candid badger]

thats ch2n

[opaque remnant]

(I know)

[wanton meadow]

Ok but fr what is a holungday

[odd sky]

chen4

[pale tapir]

holiday + lung

[hexed adder]

Pun for that yea

[thorny edge]

so is chalter good

[wanton meadow]

Very punny ic

[pale tapir]

.

[static glade]

We have standard, kernel and limited Ch'en, pick your poison

[ocean mulch]

Who is a better true damage merchant, Vina or Kal1?

[wanton meadow]

Chen3 isn't limited no?

[static glade]

Nah she's standard

[ocean mulch]

Wang is limited due to sui

[wanton meadow]

Oh nvm I'm stupid, you meant chen2

Chen3 is the standard one and chen2 is the limited one, mi stupido

[odd sky]

where's my collab chen

[static glade]

Mlp friendship is magic Ch'en

[ocean mulch]

I'm guessing, Vina because of her Aoe TD Spin

[odd sky]

wdym merchant

[hexed adder]

Vina alter merchant foresight

[ocean mulch]

True Damage DPS

[limpid yarrow]

no she stacks marvel 🙄

[opaque remnant]

Kal1 has better cycle and is more useful on a single target, vina has a longer cycle but more DPS and AoE in a single cycle

[hexed adder]

Oh stronghold

[formal shadow]

we gotta pay back for that plate we loaned from them for the reconstruction

[opaque remnant]

Is this general use case or stronghold

[odd sky]

vina aoe?

[ocean mulch]

General use, I have been using Vina in the decadanze Stages with those trucks

[static glade]

Is Irene good for high defense dudes like those trucks

[ocean mulch]

She isn't a perma-slot, Just the OP I use for True Damage if i need one

[odd sky]

yea vina better for true dmg

[hexed adder]

Kal more versatile with better uptime ig, also works for lappdumb boss

[opaque remnant]

Wouldn’t mon3 be better

[ocean mulch]

I don't have her

[opaque remnant]

Ah, unfortunate

[odd sky]

kal2

[ocean mulch]

I only have a new Kal1 and Vina

[thorny edge]

is leizi alter good

[hexed adder]

Yea mon3tr also has nice utility sure

[woeful raven]

can we ask about cn shit here

[opaque remnant]

Liberator, same class as mlynar and all their skills are usable

[ocean mulch]

Except for the defensive Liberals

[woeful raven]

should i m3 the new kaltsits skills first or mon3ter and also which skill

[opaque remnant]

Everything minus lore

[craggy belfry]

How long till new limited banner?

[shut flame]

guys did pc launcher release with wang banner?

[rocky pilot]

Cannot you just do both
Also mon3tr is just s2 or s3
Kalter is just s2, s3 only increases her atk only

[ocean mulch]

21

[silent pendant]

general time frame is 2-3 months

[woeful raven]

shi man i wish but im sorta broke

[ocean mulch]

s3 is a gimmick from what I have seen

Also nothing is going to beat a TD aoe Ammo skill

[silent pendant]

yea it's basically just exu alter s3 if exu alter s3 didn't come with a nuclear bomb

[lyric lagoon]

has a high skill ceiling

[rocky pilot]

Okay first off you have like 6 months
Second off rerun events and upcoming events for mats
Third off chapter 17 store when it released

[static glade]

Is zuo le s2 worth masteries

[lyric lagoon]

me when IS:

[woeful raven]

bought all of chapter 17 store alr haha and uh which one should i do first then mon3tr or kalter

[opaque remnant]

I think they mean on the CN client

[lyric lagoon]

kal s2 is not scaling allat high in IS, it'll be good enroute or start pick though

[opaque remnant]

So how does kalters skill 2 compare to mon3 and base kal

[rocky pilot]

3-4k true damage per ammo something?
I need to go rewatch the showcase

[silent pendant]

well the first thing to consider is that it's on a unit who is Literally Never Dying so that makes it a lot better already

[woeful raven]

i mean u can kinda put kalter anywhere cuz shes like floating and shit she doenst take a lot of damage

[hidden wolf]

Can i get all rewards from stronghold alliance in 1 week

[lyric lagoon]

less total damage than a mon3 s3, but it’s applied at with take-off, in IS it gets outscaled though

[rocky pilot]

Yes

[lyric lagoon]

more total damage than kal1 s3 though iirc

[candid badger]

you just need play a lot, no need coop tbh

[green nexus]

Which Civilight Eterna skill should I prioritize to M3 if I want to use her?

[ocean mulch]

What tour does TD gets outscale in IS

[lyric lagoon]

you can get it all in one day

[opaque remnant]

Doesn’t that apply to most things in IS, unless your name is wang

[lyric lagoon]

it’s especially worse cause ammo restriction

[ocean mulch]

Tour 7?

Because I do not believe that TD gets outscaled even at tour 8

[thorny edge]

"even at tour 8"

[limpid yarrow]

it gets outscaled than mon s3 because its an ammo skill and doesn't benefit from aspd

[odd sky]

just get crown smh

[limpid yarrow]

and not offrec so doesn't benefit from aspd for cycle

she can be pretty good early on as a pick to get you through a tough early game

[thorny edge]

guys is zuo le good

[silent pendant]

ehhhhhh

[lyric lagoon]

has his uses but replaceable if you have better, shreds most general content

[ornate comet]

id ptilopsis skill 2 better than her skill 1?

[fathom nest]

[odd sky]

slime laq?

[fathom nest]

Ignore laq, they're fucking with you guys

[thorny edge]

😔

[hexed adder]

ik

[ocean mulch]

What is the max tour for IS?

Is 7 baby-shit for casual level?

[robust thistle]

15 is max

[hexed adder]

18 later

[fathom nest]

15/18 depends on the IS

[ember yew]

Why do people not show up when I search for friends?

[dapper torrent]

Any easy way to get these?

[robust thistle]

Type manually

[fathom nest]

Names are case sensitive

[ocean mulch]

I'll be spiteful and see if I could reach tour 15 with my True damage merchant

[fathom nest]

Spam the alliance in coop and let your partners do the work

[hexed adder]

Merchant wao

[coarse notch]

theres a merchant with true damage?

[haughty garnet]

Is there a thing i can use outside discord that was like the old game press page where it would tell me if an operator is worth using etc?

[ocean mulch]

I'm talking about Vina, I just call her that because she is the only TD Op I have

[hexed adder]

They made it up 🎣

[odd sky]

agile stack is just silence alter
durable you can stack easily with cuora i think i forgot
and use other stacker like warf ceylon aid alliance

[coarse notch]

could probably reach d15 just fine with vina, d15 is very doable even if you're trolling a bit

[coarse notch]

roadless camelot has some info

[fathom nest]

Make a krooster.com account, import your roster. Send it here and ask who is worth using. You're looking for tier lists and they're shit

[vital kelp]

Guys I heard kaltsit alter is actually great in is this true?

[silent pendant]

kaltsit alter is an operator that operates

[ebon plaza]

permaflight

[vital kelp]

She can carry u all the way to boss and is still good there

[silent pendant]

kaltsit can solo 1-7 so she's meta

actually nvm I don't think she can do that

kaltsit alter worse than magallan on god

[vital kelp]

That’s not relevant to my question

[limpid yarrow]

so far she's
alright

not really gamebreaking for any iteration but pretty good
strong luxury in is5, okay early game carry in 6(and rdp is valuable in ed5 fight, esp if you somehow dont have law and ritual by then)

[slate rapids]

holy IS is pretty hard huh

[urban sleet]

For newbie/inexperienced yes

[hexed adder]

Just usual first experience

[urban sleet]

I used to struggle asw before now its d15 or nothing

[winter lodge]

Chat which one should I pick

[slate rapids]

i'm using e1 30 sakiko with some other operators, might be just doing something wrong

[urban sleet]

/pins

[high tusk]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/1224969644683825202/1497131900920401970/PINS.png?ex=69ec683c&is=69eb16bc&hm=8427d81160d163439b3ce5f19de8dcbd7cae27b492367a190366bf9c432752ca&=&format=webp&quality=lossless

[balmy ingot]

Wait what happened

[thorny edge]

ur ops are underlevelled, naturally IS is difficult

[opaque remnant]

You own all of them?

[urban sleet]

Oh wair thats owned operators mb

[slate rapids]

yeah mobs are hella tanky

[opaque remnant]

Uhh, I guess SA pots would be good since you have him nearly full pot already

[obtuse obsidian]

Its best to borrow for is instead of using under leveled units

[robust thistle]

It broke, make a new one

[winter lodge]

Ye I do, was going through my backpack and found this selector

[hexed adder]

Id pick SA, 10 certs regardless

[obtuse obsidian]

Sa closest to 25 gold certs

[hexed adder]

True

[winter lodge]

bet i just came to the game

[nimble kite]

Your AutoDeploy leaked, so it shows his instability.

Stabilize it by clearing that more properly.

[balmy ingot]

Oh so it’s a thing where if I auto deploy too much I need to go back and do it manually?

[winter lodge]

usually bc of operators with rng stuff, you need to redo the stage without rng

[pseudo flume]

Redo the stage with more consistency

[shadow bay]

there are cases

1. rng issue, like ops have chances to do shit
2. frame rate issue, which is more on device issue

[wraith sentinel]

RNG seeds are saved usually I believe, it's more when things are very frame-dependent so that changes in speed can affect stuff or if you upgraded someone in the meantime which changed something.

[pseudo flume]

Also it'll leak if you lag too hard or used tight timings

[balmy ingot]

Ah okay

[lyric lagoon]

there's also if you're using lapp2 cause lapp2 likes screwing with us

[nimble kite]

When you level up ops and it creates a different behavior, which deploy and skill activation algorithm cannot repeat and fucks up timings.

And sometimes if your device is lagging, it may allow enemies to pass through your ops, if your clear is VERY clutchy.

[winter lodge]

like mountain module giving him rng to dodge

[shadow bay]

ahh yeh thats the 3rd point im thinking about... ops upgrade also affect auto, which mostly common to newbies or mid players upgrading their roster

[rocky pilot]

Can confirm
Gotten the same s2 effects rng with tomimi across all my auto deploys with her

[floral delta]

Next banner worth saving for?

[lyric lagoon]

wang in 3ish months

[abstract blade]

what resources does RA give me? does it give chips?

[lyric lagoon]

gives you a little bit of everything except like chip catalysts

[abstract blade]

im gonna use glowstick method. are the resources renewable?

[broken flame]

the chip etchers gives you enough chips to E2 a 6* op of that class as well

[abstract blade]

and theres no time limit or anything so the run can just go on forever right

[broken flame]

The 'within range' nodes where you wanna farm the wood refreshes in quantity every season change yeah

[lyric lagoon]

as long you play on peaceful, cause you get reset if you lose to raids

[abstract blade]

no I meant. are the rewards from RA renewable or one-time

[broken flame]

you clear the shop and it's done until they expand it again

[lyric lagoon]

or well, not reset, just fucks up your progress

[abstract blade]

it works on an axpansion system and not resets?
meaning I can get all the resources from past months right?
or do I only get this month's shop

[pseudo flume]

One time

[abstract blade]

btw IS and actual (not glowstick) RA runs are endgame stuff right

[pseudo flume]

If sold out, its permanently sold out

[broken flame]

yeah you start from the very first shop and gotta empty em out before getting to the next phase

[abstract blade]

not as good as I thought but having multiple months worth of phases means glowstick strat will last me a good while

btw what operators are best at woodmaxxing

is kalsit's quick-redeploying 3 block summon useful?

can summons even pick up wood

[solemn elk]

if im relatively new (4-4 rn) should i just save up hard for Wang?

[broken flame]

Kinda, cause you can start IS early, however you'll just be relying on a borrowed op as carry and you won't have a lot of options to have fun and mess around. But for mat farming that is enough since you'll only be doing ed1 runs repeatedly.

[broken flame]

her summon won't pick up

[abstract blade]

damn nevermind then

[broken flame]

Tequila is a newbie woodcutter

[pale tapir]

you can get by with surprisingly little as a beginner
none of the banners in between are as high value

[abstract blade]

hopefully by the time im done farming glowsticks I wont need to get carried in IS

[lyric lagoon]

glowstick farming doesn't take high level ops at all

you just level base to 3, farm wood, craft, get points load back to before you crafted

[abstract blade]

is kroosalt good at that or is aoe ranged better

[harsh marsh]

should i e2 stainless or tragodia first?

[abstract blade]

which is why I specified "not glowstick"

[lyric lagoon]

you want aoe and high block

[pale tapir]

tragedy because what is stainless gonna do for you

[robust thistle]

Having invested ops doesnt mean you'll be good at IS automatically

Not to mention some IS has key ops that can cheese certain bosses or mechanics

[forest parcel]

Should I e2 lumen

[solemn elk]

okay! thanks, its just that i saw that the current thunderbringer something banner girl was good and stuff

[robust thistle]

Leizi is good, the banner is not

[lyric lagoon]

we're gonna get nightmarish amounts of nasti shilling from #arknights soon and i'm not ready 🥹

[harsh marsh]

thanks
also it's just for stainless's s1 mastery lol, I wanna experiment with damage buffs especially with warfarin and him

[wide anvil]

Hi question, do they ever rerun banners in this game? First time playing. Long time here for the emotes. I am wanting to get ela from R6

[lyric lagoon]

pins -> roadless camelot -> banner info

[urban sleet]

Limited banners don't rerun
If you mean characters, standard operators are always available off-rate except on orienteering snd joint operation banners

[robust thistle]

Collabs dont really rerun

You dont expect them to rerun unless they decide to for no reason

[urban sleet]

Past limited characters have copable odds of spooking you in their limited banner group after a year since their debut and also buyable from shop but uhhh not really recommended if f2p

[rocky pilot]

Only rainbow siege did
Once after like how many years

[broken flame]

only hope is if they collab again, which RS6 already did so kinda impossible now that it'll happen again

[lyric lagoon]

still not enough to draw a pattern from since it was the first time anyways

[rocky pilot]

Exactly

[steel sundial]

Blaze can solo a lane by herself without reviving

[robust thistle]

?

[broken flame]

what

[steel sundial]

in my current story atleast

[pale tapir]

maybe a lane of slugs

[rocky pilot]

[steel sundial]

a lane of reunion guys

[robust thistle]

Is that a statement or a question

[rocky pilot]

What are you in chapter 1?

[lyric lagoon]

so what's your question?

[steel sundial]

statement

[robust thistle]

Yeah we kinda dont need that

[rocky pilot]

Do you have a question or not

[lyric lagoon]

so you're just blogging

[steel sundial]

im in lungmen

[severe crypt]

Nothing burger blogging even

[broken flame]

that was so out of left field I genuinely had my brain pause for a moment

[robust thistle]

Go to #arknights if you wanna share your train of thought

[rocky pilot]

Go join u official smh this is #help

[forest parcel]

Any none six star medic recommendations?

[steel sundial]

i'm not familiar with this community so is what i said bad?

[broken flame]

sussurro, purestream, silence, ptilopsis

[wanton meadow]

So uhh is IS6 gvg basically leizi2/mlynar abuse?

[robust thistle]

Silence ptilo purestream perfumer ansel sussurro

[steel sundial]

sorry, I was just here last night, that's all

[lyric lagoon]

ptilopsis, silence, purestream, ansel

[rocky pilot]

This is the #help channel

[nimble kite]

Blaze using.

[pale tapir]

hehe no snail
nooo 😭

[steel sundial]

yes i see

[rocky pilot]

I saw that snail for at least 0.3 seconds before it got deleted

[steel sundial]

I hadn't read this before, sorry

[lyric lagoon]

well you're not that far into the game yet, so:

1. experience more
2. blog only in #arknights
3. read server rules

[rocky pilot]

Next time keep in mind

[steel sundial]

i see, thanks

[severe crypt]

But if you even want gameplay #help, just come here

[pale tapir]

btw if people are mean to u for whatever reason just ignore them and listen to the advice

[broken flame]

And know that if you ask advice in #arknights you are gambling

[brittle dirge]

Is Nasti + Wang a bad idea? He doesn't have ATK buff on his kit. I know the setup time is still a problem

[wraith sentinel]

Wang is strong enough by himself for it to not really be an issue.

[robust thistle]

He doesnt need an atk buff though

[broken flame]

Wang probably already killed everyone by the time that tile is finished building

[wanton meadow]

If wang isn't enough to solve the damage problem, there are larger issues at play

[nimble kite]

Yeah, you just drop the Wang and he will do enough damage for you.

[rocky pilot]

Honestly saying who’s best placing on nasti tile

[broken flame]

Pram2win

[nimble kite]

We usually remove redundant ops out of formula if they're strong themselves.

Like Yu over BlazeAlter.

[rocky pilot]

Ima note that when I pull nasti

[solemn elk]

Is doing the new rerun event with weak chars in less than 3 days a possibility?

[severe crypt]

Like shop clearing or first clears of stages

[solemn elk]

oh wow thanks thats surprising first clear..? I guess? Like the thing that gets me the originite

[severe crypt]

You should have enough natural sanity for that

Whether you have enough irl sanity is a diff case

[broken flame]

Yeah possible assuming you already have at least your main squad up and running. The rest you can borrow

[solemn elk]

thanks! its gonna be some tough days

[dapper torrent]

I forget, is there any sort of hard pity in orienteering banners or just the normal 6* one?

[nimble kite]

Normal any softpity only.

[sweet blade]

what does red mean

[nimble kite]

Red stick with 2?

[severe crypt]

2 caster buff stacks in sss
As can be seen on the left hand side

[nimble kite]

The same as it written on left side on "Tactical" basically

[thorny edge]

hi rbpeanus

what a tsundere

[native cargo]

whos stronger jessica or kroos in IS

[thorny edge]

kroos

but really its may 😔

[stray grotto]

is crownslayer in any way actually viable

I want to build crownslayer

[thorny edge]

she has usage but its not usage 99% of people would make use out of lol

[stray grotto]

i find her hot so i have to build her unfortunately

[pale tapir]

the thing with lyudmila if you invest, you either go all in with her or don't invest at all
she needs s3m3 and mody3 to fulfill her role

[vital kelp]

why ask if ur gonna do it any way

[thorny edge]

twitter exists

[vital kelp]

if u need validation to do it go ask in Supah's comments

[stray grotto]

i just want to know if im essentially shooting myself in the foot or if she actually has a usecase

[thorny edge]

generally the former lol

[slate ridge]

every op has a usecase if you look deep enough

[thorny edge]

even verdant had his moment

[broken flame]

Then it's fine, since she's actually useable. We just don't recommend investing into her since majority won't really utilize her, so that ends up being too much mats invested on something they won't use most of the time. Mod3 S3M3 and she can permastun someone for you.

[stray grotto]

thats the best she can do? Does that apply to bosses

[thorny edge]

anything that can be stunned

[broken flame]

yes she's just really a stunbot

[stray grotto]

mmm i guess her skin is gonna return at some point tho right cuz i gotta save for kalts banner for now

[thorny edge]

gng u got 6 months

[pale tapir]

kelsey2 is a long ways away

[broken flame]

Wang shaped elephant in the room

[carmine rain]

When is Enteleche Y Mod Dropping?

[broken flame]

soon-ish, should be in Titi event

[stray grotto]

im getting wang too but im sparking on kalt banner so i gotta save twin

[thorny edge]

who are u sparking

[carmine rain]

Rip I Wasted Important Mats

I just Saw Y mod Bit Late on YouTube

[stray grotto]

idk i havent decided yet

[thorny edge]

?????

[stray grotto]

ill spark whoever i find the hottest

[odd sky]

then spark me

[broken flame]

now you have to M9 her and go all-in /j

[thorny edge]

how do i know ur the hottest

[stray grotto]

im 17 twin but sure

[abstract blade]

why doesnt glowstick strat use harvesters?

[broken flame]

they use harvesters

6 harvesters per season, 3 on each 'within range' node and repeat

[robust thistle]

Sometimes I forgot that the average discord user doesnt have a fully developed brain yet

[abstract blade]

oh they just dont use harvesters on the initial wood gathering

[snow siren]

Did I ask before why the frozen objective point has an attack stat?

[robust thistle]

Why not

[nova oak]

hey guys, weird question but is the lore complicated? like with games like genshin i feel like the lore is extremely oversaturated hard to connect and genuinely just too much information, how is arknights doing in this aspect?

[robust thistle]

#ak-lore

[snow siren]

Does it do damage?

[robust thistle]

No, it cant attack

[broken flame]

yeah you need to upgrade base to lvl 3 first. base upgrade and harvester crafting both need stones

[rocky pilot]

Unless ente s2

[abstract blade]

btw you cant pick up wood diagonally right

[thorny edge]

this game's lore is way better than fkn genshin zzz

[wintry steppe]

Imagine joining reunion just to get beaten up by a frozen cube

[broken flame]

I lowkey don't remember, best just to deploy adjacent to

[paper needle]

is there any information exist to guide where to farm for e2 mats?

[odd sky]

like chips?

[obtuse obsidian]

chat is there an IS fight with any summer event map mechanic (schwars/eune/chen/gavial events etc)

[pseudo flume]

/materials in #bot-spam

[paper needle]

owh, okay okay thanks

[robust thistle]

Cc#11

[obtuse obsidian]

what

[robust thistle]

Oh wait IS lmao I cant read

[ruby garden]

Is there any future event that give insta e2 for 4*?

[robust thistle]

No we dont have an IS map with summer event map

[broken flame]

IS3 has that one water stage ig but that's very basic

[hexed adder]

Pompeii map erasure

[rocky pilot]

👓

[obtuse obsidian]

oh wait ya IS3 have chen event mechanic guess that count

[robust thistle]

Does it?

[hexed adder]

F1

[robust thistle]

Oh that single water map

[stray grotto]

which stage to farm for

[obtuse obsidian]

those sadly dont even have the small volcano so they dont count

[broken flame]

And Pompeii itself is in an under tides looking map

[hexed adder]

Welp yeaa

[obtuse obsidian]

9

[broken flame]

Maybe it's for the best, I can't imagine IS3 with all those summer stuff on top of it

[warped bridge]

which of these 6* should i focus on leveling 😁

[obtuse obsidian]

tbf old IS did not go hard on mechanics generally

[broken flame]

imagine if IS3 also got the rising water

[safe tundra]

if this is everyone unraised, then just maybe silverass

[drowsy hollow]

What skill do I m3 for ulpianus?

[robust thistle]

S3

[broken flame]

S3

[obtuse obsidian]

need extra info tbh like what shit you raised

[harsh marsh]

S3

[vernal drift]

i thought ulpi best skill was his s2?

[rocky pilot]

I wanna say raise as well even though she’s 5* but like you have have @warped bridge
Also use krooster

[robust thistle]

You thought wrong

[obtuse obsidian]

s2 is for button allergic which is 50% of ak sadly

[vernal drift]

yeesh well i gotta do his s3 now

[nimble kite]

Placeholder. To not break the game.

[rocky pilot]

S2 is a flat afk skill
S3 has higher hp and atk, reposition, redeploy, a big burst of damage immediately, iframes

[broken flame]

good cycle too

[obtuse obsidian]

lets be real 99% would not care about the repos redeploy and iframes

the stats is why its recommended

[vernal drift]

i mean is his s2 still ok to m3? i'm asking as i had mistakely done it thinking it was a good idea

[sick holly]

Ignoring skill 3, Is Zuo Le skill 1 or 2 better

[broken flame]

S2 and S3 is his regular skills

[obtuse obsidian]

it have its moments

[nimble kite]

If you want AFK/Tanking with Gladiia.

[vernal drift]

eh thats good enough for me well i gotta do his s3 now

[rocky pilot]

I’ll only use s2 if I want ulpianus to lane hold something enough for me to leave him be and focus on other things tbh

[somber wharf]

Anyone who has big cn knowledge here? Do i dont get free 6* (what was told in CN) if i just started a new acc in CN?

Thanks

[hexed adder]

The only one u miss is anniversary 5* selector in that case

[safe tundra]

ulpian s2 lwk is a golden trashbag; the least derogatory AFK skill because it works great to make him substitute defenders

[indigo spoke]

can the freezed blue box block these citizen

[somber wharf]

Didnt receive the 6* with mudrock as choice yet unless i need to reach 0-11 smh

[keen salmon]

anyone have maximized base combo ?
i just spent two hours to read and this is the best i got

[vernal drift]

i mean that makes me feel a little better that i did it on accident

[safe tundra]

thats new but should do yes

[hexed adder]

Yea its part of that

[broken flame]

you're fine, I did S2M3 too because I use him afk here and there

[nimble kite]

Yes, unless specific enemy will come. Which he will in that map.

[vernal drift]

Is SA2 best skill for this team s2 or s3? And should i do ulpi s3 m3 or SA2 s2 m3

And yes i know ines best skill is s2

[broken flame]

Sash2 depends on what you wanna do. If you just want a comfy opener S3 is enough. S2 if you wanna make use of the slashes.

[rocky pilot]

Wait wait let me ask this one last time both 6* of standard and the kernel one will both be available two times a year yes?

[robust thistle]

What

[rocky pilot]

I mean voucher
30 usd

[indigo spoke]

does lappand2 s3 have higher dmg than goldenglow s3

[broken flame]

Prio Ulpi S3M3. Sash2 S2 is fine without masteries for now, especially if you're not using it a lot as well.

[vernal drift]

alright thanks a lot

[nimble kite]

Yes. Thanks for her talent, she does more damage than GG. If tagret has Zero RES, of course.

Otherwise GG may win due to her RES-Ignore talent.

[indigo spoke]

thanks, i didnt know GG have that talent

[broken flame]

also do S3M3 for Sash2 first when u get to him

[vernal drift]

i did it already

[floral swift]

mod2 ulpianus worth?

[broken flame]

mod1 already ok

[nimble kite]

After Mod1, further levels mostly for base HP and ATK up.

His heal talent upon taking damage is whatever.

[random shard]

Is this... 2/4/3?

[harsh marsh]

who should i e2 after snow hunter
warfarin? or surfer?

[ivory terrace]

unless curve ball, he get delta

[nimble kite]

When he will exists, we will talk about that one.

[broken flame]

Also consider that it might be Abyssal Hunter buff module

[ruby garden]

Do freeze has res debuff or nah?

[nimble kite]

Why 0 EXP gain?

[robust thistle]

You shouldnt even e2 snow hunter in the first place

[ivory terrace]

freeze has -15 res yes

[ivory terrace]

5 gold facs
n still cant sustain 70k

[random shard]

No way 5 golds is making 123 I do that with 3 gold

[harsh marsh]

i mostly use her S2 for heavy-drone dealing, sometimes tragodia's cat is on cooldown so I need a substitute to deal with drones

I also don't have any air detection burst operators besides her soo, I don't really have a choice

[vernal drift]

After i clear the event shop
Of the important stuff can i stop doing it?

[random shard]

It's why I asked about what the base setup is. Numbers are cofnusing

[crisp zinc]

is Crownslayer any better than Projekt Red when I want to use a fast redeployment operator to spam Silverash alter's S2?

[robust thistle]

No you do have a choice, krooster exists

[nimble kite]

You didn't asked a better option to begin with. Since you have no clue what you build.

[pseudo flume]

252, 2 Trading 5 Fac 2 Power

3 gold 2 exp or 3 exp 2 gold

[ivory terrace]

or uhm e2 surfer lol

[random shard]

The person above has zero exp, so not it's not

[harsh marsh]

Krooster is more of a DPS-type to me, not a burst (so she commonly gets DPS-checked)

on the previous account I've used krooster, she can't even deplete 10% of the drones's health, it's always hoshi2 or logos or pram2 doing most of the work

[pseudo flume]

I was just saying the optimal base configurations

[obtuse obsidian]

i think he is talking about ufo specifically

[ivory terrace]

by the time u witness drones with that kind of def, u have better options surely

[robust thistle]

Shes literally a burst, and any drone that krooster cant kill, snow hunter wont do much against either

[vernal drift]

After i clear the event shop
Of the important stuff can i stop doing it?

[pseudo flume]

The Phat Seal in Exu2 Event

[robust thistle]

For UFOs you use an actual good dps, not a budget dps

[slate ridge]

you decide based on dp cost and rdp difference

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/15lpkXI4sQxYOfs5s6c4HF-nhqD2sxF6inXSRtRSzqTs/edit?usp=sharing

[pseudo flume]

You can keep farming for those Infinite Stock ones

[ivory terrace]

still do because material drop
and infinite material shop

[crisp zinc]

is that a spreadsheet of how much damage operators can do with SA alter's s2?

thanks

[slate ridge]

assuming no other sp ops yes

[hexed adder]

P2 skadi angle

[harsh marsh]

yeah that's why im asking who to e2 after snow hunter, I also play IS a lot and I really like playing with the cold debuff the kjerag ops inflict so until someone like wang appears on my account, she'd hardly be replaced by anyone

surfer it is then?

[vernal drift]

Alright then i guess i will do ulpi S3 m3 next week

[robust thistle]

Just say you like snow hunter instead of making a weird excuse

E1 surfer then work on your mods and masteries

[nimble kite]

Can I see your Krooster (website)?

[harsh marsh]

my bad

[harsh marsh]

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

[brittle dirge]

Is it worth to E2 Surfer if i'm planning to buy Ines? I heard Surfer is used in IS, but i don't know if E1 is enough

[uncut steppe]

Which mod for mudrock?

[lunar apex]

kjerag cold debuff team need gnosis
even then snow hunter is a hope waste option

[random shard]

You should e1 your base slaves before you do anymore e2 tbh

[harsh marsh]

I don't have gnosis

[lunar apex]

me neither, that comp is slop anyway

[nimble kite]

I see Proviso here.

[robust thistle]

They want to shoot their own foot let them

[harsh marsh]

Already did most of them that I need

[nimble kite]

E0. 🥀

[robust thistle]

Did you though

[random shard]

Unless you haven't updated your krooster you haven't done shit

[vernal drift]

Does it matter which mat i get and how much? Grind stones are 50+ and loxic khol/Manganese 25

[robust thistle]

When people say all base workers, they mean like "all base workers"
Not "some that I think I need or like"

[harsh marsh]

yeah I haven't, she's e1 lv30 yesterday

[nimble kite]

Should be 100 and beyond. The more - the better.

[random shard]

It's way more than just proviso

[vernal drift]

Good to know so i guess get 100+ of each then

[random shard]

Proviso needs e2 for base, and #bot-spam /baseskills has a lot that need done

[broken flame]

Spreading Roots of Soil and Stone Level 1

[uncut steppe]

ty

[nimble kite]

Before doing that - are you actually use her a lot?

[uncut steppe]

im using her with mumu and silverash alter

[harsh marsh]

I thought her talent was unlocked via E1 level 30, or is there supposed to be another one?

[nimble kite]

Did you really need her?

[uncut steppe]

no not rlly but i like her

[robust thistle]

Base skill is not talent

[random shard]

All 3/4 star with an additional base skill get it at e1 lvl0 and 5/6 need e2

[robust thistle]

Just follow the /baseskill sheet and E2 your proviso

[nimble kite]

Oh alr. She's fine to Lv3 for gaining SP after shield popup.

[brittle dirge]

Is it worth to E2 Surfer if i'm planning to buy Ines? I heard Surfer is used in IS, but i don't know if E1 is enough

[robust thistle]

Why is it so hard for people to follow a clean and concise guidance

[ivory terrace]

3* and 4* need e1 to unlock 2nd base skill
5* and 6* need e2 (most)
1* and 2* because they can't e2 just need max level

[uncut steppe]

[rigid hill]

When was the last time Młynar was in gold certs shop?

[harsh marsh]

Realized my wrongs here and I thought I only needed E1 for prov's base skills, turns out her E2 improves said skill
Sorry for being a burden

[opaque remnant]

Pretty sure january? That was during hoshialt debut

[nocturne laurel]

you can google shoperator aceship and there will be a website showing you when

[rigid hill]

Thx

[slate sigil]

as guys said i have no really good 6* good operators to upgrade, then i would like to e2 some 5* or 4*, who would it be?
https://www.krooster.com/u/cute-denim-goose-92oj

[nocturne laurel]

probably not

[nimble kite]

KroosAlter, Cantable.

Also ZuoLe 6☆ is fine.

[slate sigil]

someone said i don't need more holdlaners much

[obtuse obsidian]

my recommendation

[nimble kite]

*laneholder

He's a bit much soloer, who can kill some elites or bosses when necessary. For example CrocWife from RA.

[obtuse obsidian]

you dont need the 5* either much so

[pseudo flume]

Don't worry about it, at least you take note and not just summon several mods at once and fight em for hours

[ancient lintel]

How does mumu compare to closure?

[obtuse obsidian]

pretty sure worse overrall but i dont have full take on closure yet

[slate sigil]

it's half of my squad and it's not really to upgrade anyone else

[harsh marsh]

So far the only one I havent built is around 3 operators (Frostleaf, Roberta but shes very close to E1, and Castle 3), after i build Roberta, should i be good to go upgrading surfer, or should i also build the other 2?

[rigid hill]

Around how much time would it take for Haruka rerun?

[robust thistle]

Which part of "all" is unclear

[opaque remnant]

They won’t rerun

[obtuse obsidian]

i still recommend the zuo lee raise

i dont see any 5* that dont get overshadowed by one of your 6*s out side of like ptilo but that scuffed e2 target generally

can also conisder suzuran for niche slow damage amp

[nimble kite]

She won't rerun, since she was in Limited banner with HoshiAlter.

[slate sigil]

okay i hope it's good option to ditch amiya guard for him

[nimble kite]

Yeah lol.

[opaque remnant]

Level up your ulpian, you also need mod on mlynar, zuo le is fine if you want to raise him

[pale tapir]

guardmiya is bad lol
I have her maxed and she's still lowk bad

[pseudo flume]

Guardmiya isnt bad tbh just Average

[cursive maple]

medic>caster>guard

[pale tapir]

for a 5* yea ig
still my favorite amiya

[ivory terrace]

she got powercrept by zima2 in terms of buff

[pseudo flume]

Mine would be Medic > Guard > Caster

[rigid hill]

She's not limited time though. Or it doesn't work like that?

[opaque remnant]

The worse part of the class changes are the “use once per battle”

[nimble kite]

She isn't, but banner itself is.

[ivory terrace]

banner itself won't rerun
so no 35% or better haru rateups

[pseudo flume]

If a Standard is a rate up in a Limited Banner, they won't get a rerun

[opaque remnant]

Wait for orienteering

[pseudo flume]

They are still tied to the Banner that is Limited

[cursive maple]

guard amiya has no uses
caster amiya is atleast used in IS

[pseudo flume]

You make it sound like Tsukinogi or something

[green nexus]

Is this a norm for standard operator who's paired with the limited operator? How do we get them if they won't have any rerun banner?

[rigid hill]

She isn't limited time so there's a small chance she will appear in your pulls

[ivory terrace]

limited banners ye
always has 2 rateups: limited plus standard

[urban sleet]

Orienteering/good JO

[opaque remnant]

Either you buy them through certs after 2+ years, orienteering/joint op, or pray to offrate

[ivory terrace]

the standard half is only copium from other standards
mostly orienterring cuz at least there it's a 33.3~% per 6*

[harsh marsh]

My sanity is low, and it would take around 48 hours to wait the drones required to upgrade the levels of factory, tp, basically base related stuff
(alot of drones are used because I immediately rushed upgrading training room to tier 3, resulting most of the bases being tier 2, which also results to less slots to slot in base slaves)

but let's say 2 days after, i'd have all of them built
and the bases are fully upgraded, with that criteria fulfilled, I should be good to go to upgrade surfer right?

[rigid hill]

I don't think I will get any more good offrates ever since I got both Mumu and Specter Alt offrates

[green nexus]

Ah I thought Orienteering and Joint Op counted as rerun lol. Then there's still chance to get them without relying on off rate then 🙏

[opaque remnant]

The offrates could be better than what you got

[pseudo flume]

Inb4 #is-station has a discussion of using Guard Amiya

[ivory terrace]

JO technically isn't better if u r pursuing just one rateup
because it is still 25% rate each

[rigid hill]

Yeah but I wanted Mumu because she's cute and looked fun to play and Specter Alt for Abyssal Hunters team

[pale tapir]

I'll say mid next time

[opaque remnant]

But if all the options are decent then it’s not a big lost

[static glade]

Wait is it actually a thing, warfarin s2 -3% hp of a unit every second but if you use it for Pram2 but has Sash2, he basically nullifies warfarin's HP loss?

[slate sigil]

s3 for zuo?

[rigid hill]

Just because something is stronger doesn't mean it's more fun

[pseudo flume]

I honestly don't know if these type of things is the cause of the Non-Meta = Shit Propaganda

[opaque remnant]

S3 and he needs mod to be functional

[ivory terrace]

in theory yes
even if it didn't, warf also gets atk buff so she heals more

[slate sigil]

there's 2, first one?

[urban sleet]

Hence I said 'good JO'

[exotic pelican]

are specialist modules generally stronger than those of other classes? seems like a lot of mod3 recs for specialists

[harsh marsh]

Pretty much, as long its past 15 seconds

[pale tapir]

idk bruh most of the ops I use aren't meta
but I know for a fact my daughter with a sword ain't allat

[opaque remnant]

It’s less of the modules themselves and more of the people in said class

[obtuse obsidian]

wait how many specalist mod 3 non alpha being recommended even

[void thistle]

when do i start Integrated strategies game mode?

[green nexus]

Understood, at least it's not really a competition between dozens of other unwanted standard operators out there. Unless we're unlucky enough to get only the other rated up ops

[pale tapir]

whenever u want to

[pseudo flume]

She's just mid ya, I really dislike Castermiya S2

[void thistle]

does my unit level not matter?

[ivory terrace]

no one
if even alpha sucked, the operator sucked more

[pseudo flume]

Not really unless you want Module Unlock

[opaque remnant]

The skill is just bad

[pale tapir]

people use castermiya s2?

[opaque remnant]

SP cost too high for low return

[pseudo flume]

Some do yes and I heavily question it

At least S3 has True Dmg as an excuse

[shadow bay]

not rly matter but it only give flat stats... and seeing the trend per level increase the resource need grow exponentially..

so theres come to a point u need handful of resources for 1 level of the operator

thats why ull see peeps saying stop at 20-40... or 60 like for module requirements

[obtuse obsidian]

i said non alpha to remove stuff like (swire alpha 3 and mizuki alpha 3) from recommendation

not asking about ops with alpha only like generally specalist mod 3 recommantion,

[pseudo flume]

On a curious note, do you have Amiya at M21?

[ancient lintel]

Ambushers has 50% dodge right? Does the +55% dodge risk makes that 105% or 75% ish?

[opaque remnant]

If I remember correctly it was modx, someone correct me on that

[obtuse obsidian]

since the other person asked why specalist get more mod3 recommendation which kinda surprised me and made me wonder if thats true even

[pseudo flume]

He wants the Sanctuary Mod ya

[cloud storm]

If im using operators like salter and pramanix alter, should I use santalla?

[ancient lintel]

Is this zuo le we're talking about?

[pale tapir]

no only m12 mod6 right now
been putting off castermiya masteries because like u said her skills are... oof

[obtuse obsidian]

no

[shadow bay]

the only time i see santalla being used is in is5 for undulation strat

[cloud storm]

Oki great, thx lad ❤️

[nimble kite]

Yes.

1. You want for year for rotating banner (Gacha only 100%) or 2 years (+Shoperator) from her banner debut, like everyone does.
2. Special banner like Orientated or any kind of shit where she's present.
3. The classic "hit offrate with her lmao".

[pseudo flume]

Do it when Castermiya gets a Birthday Skin too

[ancient lintel]

Just skillfully offrate her in 10 pulls :glueless:

[obtuse obsidian]

do you need one? have the m21 overhere

[pseudo flume]

Nah was just curious

[shadow bay]

also mod9???

[pale tapir]

how is castermiya mod?
does it make a noticeable difference

[ivory terrace]

helps her sp problem a tad

[pseudo flume]

Just a miniscule boost to sp

[obtuse obsidian]

it improve cycle a lot

but i never use cas amiya

where my birthday casamiya skin cygames, wait wrong compony

[pseudo flume]

I had it but no idea why I did so

[shadow bay]

ig u need to be blamed for the mlp collab

[grand wigeon]

what are the best use cases for shu?

[static glade]

Which mod is preferred for stainless

[grand wigeon]

and does she do anything beyond healing and holding a lane

[pale tapir]

swarm of enemies leaking past
when u need more healing
wife
when you need an op with 3 block
when you need the 4sui buff
when u need rice

[ivory terrace]

teleporting shenanigans with s3

[proven kelp]

Thats alot of W

[grand wigeon]

thanks

[nimble kite]

[marble viper]

[obtuse obsidian]

the best use cases is when she stall with s3 rewind

other wise she is over stated medic defender in term of healing with buffs on top

[shadow bay]

did u say rice???

[static glade]

Shu tiles heals enmity, a bonus plus

[shadow bay]

enmities being healed is the last checklist i expected to see

[static glade]

(even stubborn dudes can't resist rice)

[obtuse obsidian]

how about blue box being healed

[wanton meadow]

Rice

[shadow bay]

sir we are not yet ready for this technology

[nimble kite]

Do we? ThornsAlter already does it.

[ancient lintel]

Thorns alt s1 and s2 ye

[pine bronze]

Hey yall how do i elite 1 radiant?? I heard shes a pretty good 6* free op

[ancient lintel]

Uh beat IS6?

[static glade]

Do missions in IS6

[nimble kite]

Reach Floor 3 in IS6.

[pine bronze]

💔 shit

[ancient lintel]

If ur stuck on F1 then skill issue/mama rad doesnt like u lmao

[pine bronze]

Btw should i replace astgenne with radiant

[nimble kite]

How about neither?

[pine bronze]

Nah i think im on floor 2??

[ancient lintel]

Rad is okay outside IS6 while astegenne is dogpile so I guess?

[pine bronze]

Then what do i put in then

[pale tapir]

if the best you have is astgenne alt then honestly I'd just keep her on the team until you get someone better

[static glade]

Js put the fries in the bag bro

[nimble kite]

More cheaper ops for now. Did you read guide in pins?

[pine bronze]

Welp having a summoner could be good

[shadow bay]

what astegenne is he talking though?

[robust thistle]

No

[wintry anvil]

Is Gladiia good

[ancient lintel]

Beat F5, if u cant beat F5 then it's either a roster problem, draft issues or just skill issues XD

[pine bronze]

The alter cause its free

[opaque remnant]

She’s more mid than shit, it’s just the curse of welfare

[static glade]

Summoners that take up precious slots are a no no, most of the time

[wanton meadow]

Both are free

[shadow bay]

the best puller we have atm

which bring the question, do u rly need a premium puller?

[ancient lintel]

🍟 🎒

[nimble kite]

Only from E2-60 ModX2+, and if you know what are you doing.

[pine bronze]

Idk i still dont rlly understand IS gameplay

[shadow bay]

caster also free btw

[pine bronze]

From an event??

[static glade]

Dorothy's Vision

[ancient lintel]

Learn from your deaths then

[shadow bay]

iirc its... dorothy vision???

[ancient lintel]

It's DV ye, beat DV-5 to get astegenne1

[static glade]

Re:Zero but you get to experience it

[pine bronze]

Btw do i need one more defender or leave gladiia there

I think im getting fuk by some stages purely bc i cant tank early dmg

[nimble kite]

Gladiia isn't a defender. Especially premod.

[shadow bay]

should have ask urself why u have gladiaa in the first place?

[opaque remnant]

Half your team ain’t doing shit ngl

[pine bronze]

Shes there for buffs for ulipianus

[ancient lintel]

Surely it's not gen chat saying "gladiia + ulpi is op af bro get gladiia"
Edit: predicted it lol

[nimble kite]

She doesn't work right now for that.

[shadow bay]

ur late for jinxing... i give u the title of "nice one grandpa"

[opaque remnant]

You need gladiaa mod to even think of using her

[grand wigeon]

will all sui members be available in the wang banner?

[nimble kite]

Needs E2-60 and ModX2 as must to gain special Damage Reduction that affects on everyone. Right now it's just Seaborns.

[pine bronze]

So just 2 defender combo go boom?

[ancient lintel]

Ye pre modX lv2+ gladiia's pure garbage, post modX lv2+ she becomes usable to some extend

[static glade]

You should get glaadia e2 and maxed out first before thinking of her being a support for Ulpipi tbf, her talent is js a synergy nothing else

[pine bronze]

Tbf im thinking of e2 ulipipi first

[static glade]

Even better

[pine bronze]

Hell prob be a carry with some good medic supports?

[ancient lintel]

Yes that's what you should be doing lol

[ancient lintel]

He doesnt need gladiia 90% of the time ye

[pine bronze]

Currently getting resources for that shi

[ancient lintel]

Last time I saw gladiia usage was CCB3

[pine bronze]

Then should i put gummy in as a healer tank or wha

[ancient lintel]

Just use a medic on him bruh

[wanton meadow]

Gladiia is fun to use, very replaceable tho

[static glade]

You have like 2 healers bruv, no need for more heal

[limpid yarrow]

holds a lane of jellyfish for izumik

[wanton meadow]

Can just use any medic as a replacement, 99% of the time I'd choose to bring a haruka over gladiia

[pine bronze]

Ye idk why she pulls the enemy towards her kinda bad for me rn

[ancient lintel]

No one cares about IS3 🚬

[static glade]

That's her job tho-

[ancient lintel]

That's just what she does, hence why you need a hole in front of her or somethin

[wanton meadow]

? That's what makes her fun, wdym

[lyric lagoon]

she’s a hookmaster

[wanton meadow]

It's literally her entire gimmick

She's a puller

[pine bronze]

Tbf i have 2 ops i can replace rn its either astgenne or her

[forest parcel]

Is lumen better than ptilo

[young path]

can have her pull enemies into the ulpianus of doom and despair

[ancient lintel]

Can she pull wang for me

[wanton meadow]

[pine bronze]

But at least astgenne deals art dmg?? (Also better range than gladiia)

[nimble kite]

Shittier than Sussuro 4☆, believe me or not.

[lyric lagoon]

not worth building just to replace if you have other solid ops

[nimble kite]

Can she grant Ulpipi a DR?

[static glade]

Lumen helped me ALOT through the cold stages in story, but overall he's mid, js build him if you like him teehee

[obtuse obsidian]

need ange and relics

too heavy otherwise

[lyric lagoon]

why lumen when you can just sash2 pram2 ignore cold

[static glade]

Because that was before they dropped

[nimble kite]

fat tail really

[lyric lagoon]

that was then, this is now

[static glade]

Yeah and now I don't use hime often ofc

[ancient lintel]

B b but I can use him to dispel stun from NI

[obtuse obsidian]

if am not mistaken lumen is not even used for the anti stun usage

they use whisp or nowell instead

[static glade]

Oh yeah I don't have them, only bad ops most of my roster

[obtuse obsidian]

they are not recommended either am just killing lumen copiums

[static glade]

[exotic pelican]

what masteries should amiya get for is?

[ivory terrace]

anti stun: pepe s1

[pale tapir]

which miya

[obtuse obsidian]

s2 medic thats it

[exotic pelican]

im not sure which amiya i should use (everyone except thorns2 built)

[pale tapir]

then see above

[exotic pelican]

thanks!

[rigid hill]

Who has a similar kit to Thorns but better and obtainable?

[exotic pelican]

like a self sufficient laneholder?

[static glade]

Which thorns....

[nimble kite]

Guard or Alter Specialist?

[rigid hill]

Lord Guard

[lyric lagoon]

if you want an afk long ranged laneholder, just borrow pram alt

[rigid hill]

I got her 3 times dw

[lyric lagoon]

then use her

[severe crypt]

There you go

[static glade]

I'm going to say QiuBai, but ig she's rng

[rigid hill]

I use her but it's not enough for some Annihilations

[ivory terrace]

dun need that
sakiko

[nimble kite]

Eeehm, Sakiko at most, but she's unobtainable anymore.

[severe crypt]

Wdym not enough

[ivory terrace]

also typhon copium

[rigid hill]

Game bless me with offrate Haruka please

[exotic pelican]

how do i use medicmiya s2? it sounds like i want to use the initial activation where there are tons of enemies around so she can dps for rest of skill?

[nimble kite]

Skill issue or strategy issue then.

[static glade]

You need a better Pramanix then

[severe crypt]

Like I’m assuming max pramanix for obv reasons

[rigid hill]

Just wondering if I should get him from golden certs

[nimble kite]

No, lmao

[severe crypt]

Get thorns? Hell na

[nimble kite]

He's even not recommended to build to begin with, even just for Annihilations.

[obtuse obsidian]

typhon (standard)
zima (upcoming standard)

of course you can just use good ops instead of afk slop

[rigid hill]

Heard that using Thorns is like using a 2g SIM card in an era of 5g

[ivory terrace]

ya
2021 operator in 2026

[nimble kite]

It is.

[pale tapir]

basically
but just because there are only a few enemies doesn't mean you shouldn't use it when u need it
most IS stages are short enough to where there's only one critical moment where you need it

[limber pecan]

just borrow sakiko

[rigid hill]

Well there's a reason he's in the starter 6* choosing pool now

[lyric lagoon]

thorns is “ol reliable” only cause his entire legacy is carried by kyostin guides, you can find plenty of replacements

[severe crypt]

Pramalt being 1 out of like 30 replacements

[rigid hill]

I'll stay with Lappland e2

[exotic pelican]

is that why all the afk guides use old ops? because everyone has them?

[severe crypt]

Just use your Pramalt man

[rigid hill]

I use her

[obtuse obsidian]

IS5 is the main IS that use medic amiya and its used to kill the tower thingy so timing irrelevant

tbh medic amiya is something for max D nerds so if you are not a max D nerd you probably can skip her all together

[rigid hill]

You can't just Pramalt everything

[limber pecan]

or becuase the stage is old

[severe crypt]

You kinda can, at least gen content wise
And moreso than thorns

[obtuse obsidian]

just click skills

[rigid hill]

Eh

[nimble kite]

[rigid hill]

Afknights is more complicated than I thought

[severe crypt]

No it isn’t?

People do afk knights cuz it’s the lazy route
Ie
Less thinking

[rain forge]

I’ve heard enough send this man to max risk ccb

[pale tapir]

afknights is shrimple
put down afk ops
press skill to start afk
leave

[rigid hill]

I'll stay with using Wiš'adel + Pramalt + Ulpianus

[severe crypt]

Pram doesn’t even need any presses

[nimble kite]

Because you don't need AFKnights most of the time.

Annihilation can be cleared by burst skills operator, AFK part is just "i don't wanna worry too much, plz everyone kill so i won't press any of you thanks".

[odd sky]

the true afk

[limber pecan]

i sometimes wish we could go back to when strategy mattered rather than do u have x broken character. game was actually engaging and took several attempts

[obtuse obsidian]

afk is never stronger then just clicking buttons

and its also more demanding on units to work

[rigid hill]

Pramalt + Logos

[rain forge]

You need atleast two presses to place her

[static glade]

1 press and 1 swipe 🥀

[rigid hill]

The afk I most like is Haruka

[rigid hill]

Choosing her

[floral swift]

it could also be that stages esp old ones are afknights-able with the likes of thorn because they're easier.

[slim tusk]

haruka fake,need to click skill

[rain forge]

twice too

[slim tusk]

the horror

[rigid hill]

Same goes for Thorns though

[obtuse obsidian]

?

[floral swift]

u can always handicap yourself and play the game with those rules

[rain forge]

Thorns is abysmal dogshit

[limber pecan]

i do

[wanton meadow]

Don't get baited

[rain forge]

bait has seen better days than this

[floral swift]

or yk, wait for actual challenging stages (cc or whatever its called now)

[slim tusk]

i sometimes wish we could go back to just surtr/chalter/random x char

[rigid hill]

I wish that I could turn back time

[ivory terrace]

powercreep marches on

[limber pecan]

yo when are they gonna add a ling emote

[rain forge]

30 second slowmode incoming

[rigid hill]

Cause now the guilt is all mime

[rigid hill]

One day but not today

[opaque remnant]

What?

[floral swift]

natgeo rerun

[limber pecan]

true

[limpid yarrow]

game is still engaging if you play harder content
consider playing more is

[rigid hill]

What would happen if I buy the Nian skin in shop?

[rain forge]

You get the skin

[static glade]

You own it?

[rain forge]

Can’t use it without the operator so it’s a waste of money if no Nian

[rigid hill]

So I will have it ready for when I'll one day get Nian?

[limber pecan]

😒 IS is kinda mid. ive fully beat 2 and 3 and ts is boring. id rather wait for cc

[rigid hill]

Nian bean in sprite

[limber pecan]

i bought it without nian its an investment

[static glade]

(though ChongYue is a better deal )

[limber pecan]

chong is ugly and stupid

[rain forge]

ass vs ass

[rigid hill]

Paid 2$ for the Chongyue bean and Nian bean icons

[rigid hill]

A lot of people love ass yk

[worldly fern]

[rain forge]

Alright back to #arknights you go

[rocky pilot]

This is truly #help

[opaque remnant]

Just remember, any OP you spend on skins is OP that is not going to pulls

[limber pecan]

if this aint help then i dont want what help is supposed to be

[brittle dirge]

Can you relocate Kaltsit 2 into Nasti tiles?

[heavy ember]

Should I mod 3 him? I was gone during his release

[limber pecan]

i dont see why not?

[rain forge]

Should be

[opaque remnant]

If you want to modx, but it depends if your team needs him or not

[heavy ember]

i just got him from the current banner after trying to get surfer(and failed)

[rain forge]

Why would you pull for surfer

[heavy ember]

why would i not?

[rain forge]

You pull for 6* ops not 5* ops

if you already have SA2 then there’s no need for surfer

[opaque remnant]

Surfer is just a nice bonus

[near hollow]

is sashlter s3 worth m3ing

[nimble kite]

X, Lv3 should be already builded with S2 and S3.

[opaque remnant]

Worth, but if you have DPS prio them first

[cursive maple]

s3 is more worth to m3 than s2

[rain forge]

S3 is his only skill worth m3ing

[heavy ember]

yes if you use it frequently

[near hollow]

crazy

[rain forge]

S2 mastery gains are abysmal dogshit

[static glade]

His s2 and s3 are so good, I can get my Zuo Le online much faster

[nimble kite]

Yeah, S2 doesn't grant better SP Cost 🥀

[heavy ember]

s2 i m3 for the extra er on start and cost

[opaque remnant]

Mastering S2… does nothing

[limber pecan]

does hoshi alt want mod 3

[near hollow]

Bro sybau i already did the s2

Ts too late to undo

[rain forge]

S2m3 gains 1 extra starting sp and some more dmg

That’s it

It does nothing else

[cursive maple]

you alr got the answer

[heavy ember]

its good with executor

[opaque remnant]

Mod2 min, mod3 if you can afford it

[obtuse obsidian]

it make my crownslayer schiwng do more damage :realmad:

[heavy ember]

the archetype

[rain forge]

If I see one more “sa2 s2m3 good for frd” argument im going to throw a brick at someone

[formal shadow]

sa2 s2m3 good for frd

[opaque remnant]

Who do you plan to throw it to

[pale tapir]

ah but u can make ulpipi frd if you use exialt s3

[knotty wave]

then that would make EVERYONE frd

[heavy ember]

i dont use his s3 much so i leave it at 7

[pale tapir]

frd wisadel

[rain forge]

frd thrm-ex 🤫

[patent harbor]

does anyone know if i can use SAlther S3 to farm kills on characters for module unlocks? will using orb on other characters count towards that character's kills? i assume it will since thats how S2 works

[limber pecan]

anyone here fun to use and isnt total dogshit?

[opaque remnant]

People are going to think using kalter just for the Ulpi combo is going to be worth once the clips come out 🥀

[nimble kite]

PramaAlter

[static glade]

Pramanix

[formal shadow]

spot

[limber pecan]

other than pram i forgot i had her

[nimble kite]

Also ExecutorAlter and Archetto (only IS).

[rain forge]

Pram2

Gnosis and Cheeto for IS

[static glade]

Irene

[rain forge]

Gnosis erasure

[nimble kite]

And Gnosis! Very good sometimes.

[opaque remnant]

The fuck does Irene even do

[pale tapir]

do they have to be both fun and not ass or can they just be fun

[static glade]

She floats and nukes

[limber pecan]

atleast not horrible, looking for fun units and not for fucking IS fuck that shit

[rain forge]

Oh yeah Irene IS mod kinda turns her into a frd

[nimble kite]

I just saw him 🥀

[rocky pilot]

Helicopter frd

[marble viper]

[livid crest]

What, Irene has is module? Dang into the list she goes to upgrade then

[rocky pilot]

Someone forgot to check it seems

[obtuse obsidian]

a funny one too

unlike sp*lter

[patent harbor]

meta for all modes: pram2 and arguably crownslayer too
if you play IS: archetto
if you play high diff IS6 gnosis can put in some good work there too
just fun and not dogshit: cs and cantabile

[opaque remnant]

You’re smoking something if you think crownslayer is even remotely meta

[formal shadow]

where does the word "meta" enter the conversation

[patent harbor]

you're severely underestimating the value of 18 seconds full stun of elite enemies for regular play and also SAlter abuse for reactive play

[opaque remnant]

Before this devolves into a needless argument, I’d suggest we stop at the root

[slim tusk]

fun is very subjective

[formal shadow]

it has been opinionated from the start anyhow

[limber pecan]

ling is fun

[obtuse obsidian]

no shes not

[limber pecan]

you just dont get it, thats fine

[median fable]

nicks check out

[obtuse obsidian]

i used ling before you played the game no need to gaslight

[limber pecan]

i joined with the ling banner dont lie to me

[static glade]

Ling is boring, the real fun is Wang

[sharp elbow]

CN peeps, how stronk is Titi? Is it okay to skip her?

[median fable]

I used ling when Ling was not even released

[obtuse obsidian]

same

[median fable]

not a cn peep but it's fine to skip her

[obtuse obsidian]

every banner but the limiteds are skip

[jaunty eagle]

what strat to make stronghold event easy~

[nimble kite]

Pray for ExecutorAlter and farm his Laterano and Foresight stacks.

[obtuse obsidian]

the second limited could be a skip depending on how broke the banners after are

[patent harbor]

not cn but she has sleep mechanics and even there is kinda weird/nieche to use so skipping is perfectly fine for at least 95% players

[obtuse obsidian]

dont play on dire coop

[median fable]

second limited = kal2 banner?

[obtuse obsidian]

ya

[static glade]

What

[limber pecan]

use sw999 also wrong server

[jaunty eagle]

ah i somewhat watched about it and it needs silence?~

[nimble kite]

Even Gitano is fine to activate.

[static glade]

Sir this is help for arknights, not hsr

[jaunty eagle]

with friends instead?~

[obtuse obsidian]

if the fren can carry sure

[median fable]

wouldn't say a skip considering what we have available currently
Tragodia rerun should be close to that banner though

[jaunty eagle]

but i dont have frens~

[carmine field]

Got thorns from beginner banner.
Is he good?

[nimble kite]

Solo has lower enemy stat raising per Round passes.

[opaque remnant]

Well we just need to wait for news

[opaque remnant]

#stronghold-hall people host at times

[obtuse obsidian]

i said could be depending on what come after

of course if we get 2 more titis kal banner will be a pull

[jaunty eagle]

oh thats nice~

[brittle dirge]

I'm hoping they will release another Nasti upscale

[median fable]

did you already reroll?

[slender cloud]

post wrong questions
what i mean to ask if i can possibly save 300 pulls on wang/chen alter alter banner, currently have 60 pulls

[opaque remnant]

Wait, the normal enemies gets more stats raise on coop and not just the boss? No wonder it’s cancerous

[static glade]

Probably yeah

[carmine field]

No
I might do considering he's also a male

who should I aim for

[limber pecan]

depend son how much story you have but you should have like 200 atleast if you play

[patent harbor]

after testing it does indeed work this way, you can use salter skills 2 and 3 to cheese out kills on weaker characters for module unlocks

[static glade]

Get the better and hotter male, silverash

[nimble kite]

Yes. That's why sometimes most of your teammates leaking on potentially easy waves - it's absurd rampup.

[median fable]

if you're rerolling don't do it on the newbie banner, reroll for Leizi2
reroll guide in the pins

[slender cloud]

currently in chapter 5, doing very slowly

[carmine field]

Amongst waifus

[cloud storm]

Is chongyue a standard or kernal character

[limber pecan]

then you can hit 300 if you grind it out up till then

[opaque remnant]

Neither, limited

[static glade]

Ty kind sir for your discovery, we'll keep this in mind, when someone else poses this concern

[slender cloud]

gonna get the males to attract the waifus

[vale dock]

Limited

[median fable]

thorns is fine if you got him in the newbie banner, as long it's not Exu everything is fine since you get a free 6* selector for Silverasg

[cloud storm]

Aw mannnn... does he often have reruns or anything? Or is he a "true" limited

[limber pecan]

only shot is during a sui banner and its low, or you spark a sui banner

[jaunty eagle]

btw which profile char should i pick?~

[nimble kite]

I usually pick Owl if I go Laterano.

[sharp elbow]

ZimAlter? She seems stronk

[patent harbor]

some of these would take much more than 1 run to fullfill, unless theres some weird map where you can get it free

[cloud storm]

Whats a sui banner...

[jaunty eagle]

for exe alter right?~

[opaque remnant]

Generic, stronger than Pepe of course

[median fable]

nth exceptional, can be considered if the person in question is a newbie

[limber pecan]

happens once a year its a half anni banner for cny but we are like 6 months behind cn. so like roughly august's limited banner

[nimble kite]

Yeah. 45 funds spent - you may get ExecutorAlter promoted immediately.

[obtuse obsidian]

unless you are a big fan of button allergy she is nothing special

[opaque remnant]

Isn’t it 55

[brittle dirge]

She looks better and more practical than Pepe, am i wrong?

[static glade]

A banner with dragon characters, they are called Sui Fragments, hence Sui banners

[nimble kite]

Idk, I forgor

[sharp elbow]

Button allergy?

[obtuse obsidian]

pepe was not recommended to pull either so being better is not important

[nimble kite]

Dislikes to press Skill button much often.

[opaque remnant]

In other words your lazy and cant be bothered to press buttons

[cloud storm]

So, around the time for wangs banner?

[obtuse obsidian]

afk (away from keyboard)

[median fable]

she is better and she's a solid operator. It's just that what she does is easily replacable

[limber pecan]

it is wang banner, wang is a sui

[static glade]

[cloud storm]

I thought hed have his own separate one is what I meant

[median fable]

check roadless camelot for guide on limited banners and their pools

[sharp elbow]

Ah. Well, she might be good for me since I forget to press skills sometimes.

[limber pecan]

yea but chong is only on the offrate characters during that banner for the entire year. or you can buy him buy sparking then

[brittle dirge]

Is there any dps comparison between ZimAlt and Ulpianus S2?

[cloud storm]

Sparking is when u have that limited currency and buy a character for 300 right?
Cuz I did it for wis

[sharp elbow]

ZimAlt is more of a DPH op, than DPS

[median fable]

tldr: each limited operator is part of a specific pool: celebration, summer or cny (sui). When a type of banner is available the consequent operators in that pool will ve available as offrate (so Wang banner is Sui type --> Chong will be there as offrate)
Limited banners don't rerun

[limber pecan]

chong is 100% not good enough to intentionally spark

[static glade]

The Wis part was unnecessary tbf

[brittle dirge]

Could be worse

[limber pecan]

here he will have a 5x off rate meaning your chances are fucking shit

[static glade]

Ig I should wait 2 or 3 years for him to drop to 200

[limber pecan]

if you really want him sure ig

[cloud storm]

Wym? I bought her with the coins cuz I didnt know what to do with them and people said she was meta. During salter was the first time I pulled after sakiko, so I had a lot of pulls saved up

[median fable]

2 years

[static glade]

Ik but saying you sparked Wis was ehhhhh kinda....

[limber pecan]

she is meta but nobody is worth 300 pulls

[opaque remnant]

I wonder, once texas2 becomes 200 will the stance of who’s best to spark change when someone rolls an unfortunate 200

[surreal wing]

Do we know who's gonna be the next voucher shop 6 star? I want to buy hoederer but only have 200 and don't wanna risk it

[brittle dirge]

We don't

[cloud storm]

Well, its not like I spent to pulls FOR her... I wanted pramanix alter promotion 5
