my wuling is doomed, i have like 2 +50% in price and one +130% 
me for the past week
i hate wuling
Incomplete region to push jan 21 release
i never have anything lower than 20% bruh
It is what it is
i mean this build is more or less from aug 25
Man I shoulda just made a default team only comp
Woulda been fun having constrained limitations
Ardelia effectively maxed. as the remaining skill do nothing for her. 
Praying for difficult boss fights but i dunno how hard they wanna make it for a gacha game
Hey, how does 53 recharge changes pog playstyle?
Story team only challenge: Endmin, Chen and Perlica
Wasn't there an option to play the game like that and remove gacha
you can play ex astris
would 196% ult charge be enough on wulfgard for a laevatain team
Originally I was gonna make my account a no pulls account but then I was like man these rotations are boring asf
Not sure how I feel about the reduced mob level.
I will probably get bored enough to go run solo chen
I can't even start my rotations on them not before they're dead.
Overworld combat is meh im mostly trying to avoid getting near them daily
I can see them making a roguelite game mode where you stack debuffs on your team for higher rewards
Yeah it's overdone in gachas but it deffo is fun
I dunno how action gacha do their endgame but id like a for fun combat mode
lifeng skill > chen combo > chen skill x2 > lifeng combo > endmin combo > pog skill
pog ult > pog combo > lifeng skill > chen combo > lifeng combo > lifeng ult > chen ult > endmin combo > endmin skill
does this seem right? feels like i'm doing something wrong ngl 😭
one thing you want to do
is sync chen and lifeng's combo cooldowns
that might make it feel better for you
ZZZ and WuWa have one weekly mode that's a roguelite, an endgame mode that's just waves of enemies you need to clear within a certain amount of time and a zooted boss mode.
Just gotta wait then
Does phys teams need a specific team order?
pog should be in 1st
and endmin/dapan need to be after lifeng
it's not strict but you do have to meet those two criteria
Ok, ty
this is partially because of a current bug
that only really affects physical
physical moment
Really should build last rite but phys team not needing sig weapons is pretty appealing
phy try to be playable challenge
oh wow valiant is in store
feels a lot smoother now ty again
np
now that we're getting a payout in 1.1 or 1.2 for early game changes im tempted to go in for gilb
but i dont think ill have enough to guarantee
certainly not enough to guarantee sig
Do u have the dossier for gilb
Is there any point in taking Akekuri to level 90, or just save my resources.
Probably not
yeah
rip I could not hit the tap for gilb essence
It's time to 20 pull cope
there's definitely 20 pulls
3 events + dailies and whatnot
fuck it i guess
we ball
Didnt u say you're skipping yvonne anyways
i have her already
only chars im missing are gilb pog ember
pog i will selector im just waiting to pull first
because if i selector him now im coming out of gilb banner with p2 pog
fuck i want to refresh
I have to scroll through them so i guess im safe
I need to throw away my purples
Or maybe they can grant mercy and let us gel them for 1-2 each
should I get Valiant for Lifeng or Oblivion for flex/perlica support?
probably valiant but it depends
what are the best weapons from the two free boxes?
not a fan of the visual design of some like Thermite Cutter but its supposedly good..

the whatt lmao
Oblivion is purely damage oriented I don't think it's too useful on a lot of units atm
could be in the future though
not even all that on perlica is it
and it's still a bit duboius on her
lots of supporting options instead
like third best choice if no det no wanderer i guess
does this thing auto open i cant find it
yes
BOOOORING
oblivion loops back around to being good at ultra high invest
because WW is, well, just WW
makes sense
why is the #team-build pins spreadsheet recommending a offset full ult gain eff, over the hotwork 3 set? is it that much better to have a 1 rotation ult rather than 2 rotations but with bigger dmg?
depends on content
the longer the fight the better charge set becomes
overworld gaming charge set is always better
its mostly preference since both can clear all content
How much artificing mats is the charge kits

Does surtr need another 5 million wuling dollars
This is helpful
Lifeng P1 does this change at all or still same
I'mma be rich boys. 

hello, i need help plz : does Pog's combo proc the frontier set effect plz ?
my friend had a 950% a few days ago
I'm guessing he stopped being your friend the second he became a billionare. 
finally
@drifting quest @tight haven I needed M3 BSkill, Artifice every INT Gear stat once, 8/8/4 essence + ginseng + perplexing on Ake
w
cute
god Marble is really just dps check, my stupid ass missed one EBS when the boss move away but yeah with enough DPS you stagger fast enough so the boss doesn't even do the laser thing that takes shitton of time
last time I did perfect rotation no miss
but the boss just do the fly and laser shit once
it do be like that
so loss allot of time
now that I actually upgraded shit my DPS do enough stagger and kill it
now enjoy the knowledge nothing is going to be even as close to as hard for a while
it's not even that hard really, just the fucking dps check is insane and annoying
I optimized my rotation so much
but at the end it's just DPS check, my run when I got it is not as perfect but good enough ig
I died a lot because I tried to damage as much as possible and ignored dodge since it's sucks on mobile and died lmfao
wasted the food buff 💔
Well that's nice I don't intend to play endmin for now but good to have.
Got it while tring to get Ardelia's after 90 attempts.
I always save 6* 3/3 cuz you never know when you'll use it tbh
Yeah I got this one as well in the same run, shame I have no intention of using these weapons rn.
does anyone have a video for the physical team rhodagn world record
@tight haven yo
phys team record keeps getting broken afaik
it was 42s or something a day or two ago
is less now
oh cool
i wonder what’s changing to make it faster
i wish i could understand chinese
would be neat to read through some of this
what's the fastest for Laevatain
~15s
tbh Rhodagn is piss ez
that he is
probably the most straightforward boss
definitely
regardless i’m interested i hope someone has it
nothing close to it on youtube
my WIP essence sorter, put in your essence 3 stats and it will select the best weapon to utilize it
neat
will we ever get 6 stars gears or lvl 80/90?
yesnt
kinda afraid of min maxing stuffs cause of that
no point not to
if we get gear upgrades they will have to allow us to retain artificing progress or it will have to be year(s) in the future
lets be so fr what else are yuo going to be doing with your time
higher level gear will prob be in region 3
might as well make the best gear you can now
but there is likely a new gear set in new wuling area
right makes sense
also investing in gear doesn't really kill other progression? nothing to really spend wuling dollars on outside surtr essence
and with a new update artificing will most likely get easier
hoping for that. good chance feels like 1%
I'm thinking more mats and offset materials for gloves and chestpiece may be good matches
I was on 2/3 intellect until i realized the charge kits was a good match for hot works kit

is lifeng with a 5* weapon good enough for phys or do i really need to buy this?
(have 14600 currency atm)
Most people aren't at max investment on any of their teams right now.
makes sense
endmin definitely getting upgrades as the story goes on
like every gacha mc
it's a good investment, but I feel like his sig will eventually be rotated as well
depends on how patient u are really
Yeah the question is though the timing of those upgrades, do they stay close to meta or just fall further & further behind the pack.
Usually it's the latter.
isnt that only for non-sigs tho?
the other gacha I play has had the mc meta for like half a year
and he still is
it wouldnt make sense for them moneywise to sell something for a LOT cheaper just by being patient
endmin's sig was on the shop
but then again, thats endmin and there isnt a banner for it
the more invested your lifeng the bigger the gap
Sig weapons are usually only a 10-20% dps increase over their second
So unless u want the look to fit
Dont bother
i c, what about the 5* option? how much better is it over the 5*
As what
mountainbearer over the best 5*
with lifeng pots the difference begins to get larger and larger
but you dont need to worry about that
probably
No clue tbh I didnt look into Lifeng weapon calcs
But the guide from iana in pins in teambuilding mentions his best options
with 5* he is still functioning
it doesnt say anything other than the 6*s, which is why im worried its much much worse
he just has to be xiranite set ultbot instead
in dmg in a prolonged fight it was like 70% of mountain bearer iirc
but if you make him ult bot its chill max
so as long as u make him a ult bot, its not as big of a difference, right?
ye
When is the ult efficiency required?
and his uptime on xiranite is quite good, which is nice even if it is nerfed
so basically dont get the weapon in the shop rn and just use whatever u have for lifeng? 🤔
that is a choice for you
got it, so in the end, should i get valiant or just use the 5* until theres a mountainbearer?
optimal wise
the units' personal damage is very good in late game with either 6*
but he still functions with the 5*
and is still going to be far better than anything else in the slot
assuming you have the resources spare and no interest in the next 4-8 banners the mb banner is pretty good
also assumes everything is a hit
i was asking if mountainbearer pops up in the weekly shop
no
sigs for standard banner chars do not enter the rotation as far as we know
hence their permanent banners
i c, so, get valiant or just use a 5*? (i have 14600 currency)
hard to say what is better, it's all about if the cost is acceptable for you
@drifting quest can you make this but for the 3 boss trims
grand vision was on sale but it also is an offrate in another sig's banner
i have negative skill in photoshop
i’m starting my pulls for mountain bearer
so it's safe to say weapons like khrav and mountainbearer are probably not going into the 2480 slot ever
if only i had more than one 10 pull worth of tickets
use canva or someshit, I need the original image of the panda guy
cuz the medal is way too big and will cover up the 3 trims
maybe we need only 2
is it likely to appear in a bp selector sometime?
bp selectors are cope options for the limited banner units
ohh, i c
well, ig i'll get valiant then? its not like 2k of the currency will make a big difference in the long run
1 banner will already get me 8k so
if you're fine with the cost go for it
if you're planning to potentially go for gilb wait for her weapon banner
might be an offrate
nah, dont give a damn about gilb/yvonne
they seem very weak atm from what i saw in the guide
Yvonne's weak due to us missing her signature atm. She'll be fine once her banner rolls around

if i had a photoshop subscription I could ):
expensive ahh adobe products
anyways, thats all thanks guys
a 6* you will use for a 10 pull thats pretty good
enjoy ur valiant
Gimp went thru changes
do they have good cutouts
I remember when it was everything in separate windows
i have years of psd but haven't ever touched paint or gimp but a lot of the programs are rlly similar
like krita was suprisingly super easy to learn
half way there
wait 1 min, just realized i still have this selector, should i get exemplar for panda or not worth it?
its hard to say
I mean are you planning on using him?
wait and see 1.1 drip markets first
I'm gonna run out of the 60k catylysts too... artificing is so insanely expensive
does he even deal dmg?
wait wtf the essence I thought was only for pog sig fits into thermal cutter
can someone explain more about this? 🤔

wow lol, wasnt expecting that
pog double dash, ember shield
laev kills everything
wulfgard stacks
pog sprints faster
ember lets you not dodge
i c, so ig i'll just save it since he'll get booted out of the team at some point anyways?
wulf provides heat stacks laeva on charge set 1 rotate
if you engage with gameplay and dodge you drop ember
ohh okok ty
likely yes we just dont know when
could be 1.1, could be 1.2 could be 2.0 or something in a year
do u build pog and ember for this or just leave them at lower levels tho? 🤔
pog doesnt need anything he's just there to sprint faster
dude how do you use LR. I have her preferred team but I just dont know how to use her
ember probably needs some levels but if you're not preinvested in ember just dont bother
line up all your buffs on her combo > ult
one tap
dont one tap? bricked the team
alr, so should i level his ancient canal sword or nah?
and what about chen's sword, worth leveling? (also 5*)
second rot onwards for last rite is brutal
my pog and amber is 60 already with weapons as well so i guess should be ok.. just put some gold set thats not artifice on them im guessing right? cause i was building phys team before i got laev 🤣
perlly elec, LR skill, xaihi skill then ult?
canal is close enough that it's fine to save the box and invest in it

chat whatre our thoughts on arclight not getting replaced in 1.1
i c, what about chen's?
same deal
do i invest into mastery on her skills for more sp gen rn
alr, thanks! thats really all now lol
you can leave ember on an unartificed gear set and the rest of her as is
just know the team only works for overworld
you'd want to invest in other units to play the team for harder content
What is the harder content
comming next week
is this achievement impossible on P0 weapon?
yes but u could in theory use a 5*
yeah no
gotta catch em all
see stanza and lae sig
so max ur lae sig essence and slot it in p3 stanza
free achievement
then move it back
u would still need to do breakthroughs on the 5 star to unlock some of the skill ranks
which would be crazy mat waste
whel
nuh uh
What’s the 4th trim?
The one that looks like boss trim
perhaps this one
p3 weap with 6 6 3 ^

its a goddamn leviathan!
You have exactly enough to buy out the gear bps
i just realized the weps here is obj and sig, and im currently using rational farewell 🙁 worth to upgrade obj even if its r1? or just keep using my rational farwell r1 at level 60 already? 🤔
WeGood
Laevatain seems pretty bad against the 2nd boses, not sure I can be bothered farming his medal when he's so annoying to fight.
the one dude here cleared with p0 laev wulf akekuri ardelia
at p5 with max artificing you don't need obj
p4 or below (and same applies to p5) you can choose whether you want to essence OBJ or artifice gear
but yeah it is annoying
What are the gear options for laeva p5 if I have her weapon p5 as well
charge set from pins but change the gloves out to hot work gloves
Gotcha thanks
Yeah, I'm sure it's doable I got the other 2 medals first attempt. I just find it annoying to fight him. Maybe when I'm really really bored I'll have another go.
question, whats the priority of char to invest in? like, da pan, lifeng, pog chen or smth like that?
im looking at this.. all the green cube one on laev/wulf/ake is this one right? not the crit one right?
you want the ultimate gain efficiency
ake i swear frontier is close
so basically none of them have set bonus except ardelia?
?
it really isnt
so basically for laev, even at p0, u use this set, only when u artifice it max to ultimate gain efficiency on all pieces right?
which is better at p0 dependso n content
charge set currently has more content it performs better into
but this can easily change in future patches or future events
is link that busted? cuz it only applies on laev enhanced skill and frontier hard boost int reducing ake cskill cd
if you want to be safe do not artifice yet, simply buy the required materials
link, atk buff but mostly more sp
the int is like
5 sp at the most difference, once or twice a fight
the combo cd does nothing you're gated by stagger
?
One day I'mma definitely work on DPS Ember for the meme's 
another question, for the other 3, how much do i invest to them? like wulf/ake/ardel? like mine atm is 60/80, and weapons at 60/60, leave it there or upgrade them further?
i see...
sounds fine
got it, thanks
ult shill 0 pc is better than dedicated sets smth wasn't thought out
akekuri - ult level 9
ardelia - skill level 9
talent nodes for them all
weapons as long as you have them, maybe some essence for their buff lines
though imo lifeng miiighttt be a bit better in the long run for investment
depends on if you have his weapons actually
got this one
u mean good for going for lifeng first or?
i got thermite cutter for him
what's your end goal here? are you trying to trim a specific boss or
ohh thank god i did level those talents to 9, just that i havent gotten the top talent tree cause need e4 which is level 80+ so im guessing i should get them there or nah?
depending on which talents you can potentially ignore them
just to prepare for the supposed abyss of this game, its not like i can spend resources elsewhere anyways since my laev is maxed
the main stat one on top
even if we gain another good team later on, it will still shill certain teams so
the trust nodes? you can ignore them all except laevs
i assume so anyways, since literally every game is like that
for phys important masteries (and so important characters to promote to elite 4) are pog battle skill/ulti and lifeng battle skill
This will do for Ardelia right, she doesn't really care too much about ultimate gain anyway.
but my personal pog build being full arts intensity means he does 0 damage
for laev on the other hand.. do i actually use those crowns? 🤔 if so which do i prio first, how many crowns for each talent needed
you can honestly pick and choose, but if you want the quickest improvement investing in crusher is the fastet probably
i just don't like leveling panda 
so only m1 i assume from this on pog, and lifeng wants m3 i assume?
charge build ult >= skill > combo(m3 only for 1s cooldown) >>> basic
hot work built skill >= ult > combo (as above) >>> basic
though that's defeinitely a way later problem
remember phys benefits a lot from horizontal investment
level them equally?
except for basic
Get that at max pot to make sure the bosses don't get to do anything 
depends on crown income, shouldnt really matter
combo skill is premium
biggest gains are going from sl9 to m3
got it, thanks!
Btw is the reason we use off-set pieces on Akekuri because she can't trigger this anyway?
@drifting quest can you think of any characters where batk is worth going for masteries on
and there's always another xiranite holder
so basically ulti + skill only, rest is just bonus yeah?
yvonne, technically?
Ok then just gotta fix this fraud then I'm good to go.
interesting
2 more days till gilberta sig
do you think it's worth doing for lifeng in phys teams
uneccesary ahh farming
Hope I get more than 1 6 star weapon
probably not until we get a lot more crowns, then maybe for finisher multiplier
is there a resource/site for looking at skill levels? I want to see a couple of masteries past m1
I wonder if Akekuri will be as good as she was in beta 2 once she's all artificed up. 
Rossi will be beta akekuri
talos wiki
If there was a better akekuri would you run both?
I'm thinking Wulfguard loses his spot on the team before Akekuri we'll see though.
Maybe content dependant.
no, i feel like wulf is way more core than ake unless we get a better applier
But yeah I'm really hoping Laevatain's team gets a nice buff with the next batch of characters.
also wulf's upper limit is way higher because (theoretically) you can go solo wulf applier and have him solo charge laev ult with artificing
Hopefully they don't go down the path of just releasing a ton of ice supports to bring Yvonne's performance upto Lavetains. That would be a bit tiresome.
so basically like this for ultimate gain efficiency? the other 2 stats do i upgrade them later or just leave it for now? 🤔
I'm toying with swapping to full ult gain on my Laevatain even though she's P5.
People say 75% is enough though, sometimes I feel she's a little off getting full ult.
Yo question whats the difference between purple and gold etchings that makes gold better? More slots?
You mean essences?
I don't think you can upgrade the purple ones no?
i dont think u can
U can get a really good base purple tho
You can't, correct
So u can maybe use some of them instead of a gold for a bit lol
I wish you could my Ardelia is rocking this...
Especially for supports a strong skill purple is way more useful than some additional points in whatever base stat
purple cope essences are really good for supports if you are currently in poverty
lifeng eating good
I got a bunch of valiants so cant justify pulling that weapon
Or any of the base sigs really lmao
p1 bearer 
They are stingy on weapons
honestly mountain bearer is really insane
I just can't justifty using Lifeng 
so unless you have like p5 valiant or something i dunno
If i use selector it's a p3 i think
Future sig banners will have more valiants so no lifeng sig for a while
uhh is it more efficient to bring the ulti to m3 first or get skill to m2 as well? i dont have enough of the crowns lol
majority of your dmg is in ulti so you might as well wait for m3
yeah i can get it to m3, its just that i can get m3 or get the skill to m2 as well
if you can m3 + m1 do that
is the swordmancer set proccing 
i did significantly more stagger on the second battle skill
try comparing as point unit
Oh I see
Thanks
And yea I meant essences
Yeah purples would honestly be better than golds if you could upgrade them considering how many drop
Sadly no dice.
second battle skill has 3 visible numbers and more stagger yea
When do you use the figure of speech no dice
wtf is going on
Ye
Good to know
God im so hyped for new patch
With the funds theyve gotten so far
Although that patch has probably been prepared for a while now
ok so it seems like maybe what's happening is the internal timer starts when you enter combat ON COOLDOWN
isn't that cd like 15s though
yeah..
the core gameplay is fun so there can be a lot done for this game
it also seems to not proc when you aplpy the iniital stack
only when you add to existing stacks
though it's a tragedy that it seems there's a good amount of people not interfacing with factory
Housing take it or leave it
i would be more mad if i were still running swordmancer on chen

Crazy to think Laevatain's time in the sun will have soon passed. Where have those couple of weeks gone.
I remember waiting on release date now we're gonna hit 2nd banner
ok no wait im back to being confused af again ugh
Do your 2 pulls
how is lifeng getting 4 damage numbers here

Rip to those that couldn't 120 pulls in time
I have all 5* operators maxed did since the 2nd day of beta. 
oh right talent
Idc do it anyway
this broken ass character bro
time to reroll for surtr on gilberta banner

I know someone who hit surtr + gilberta and still wanted to reroll
Is perlica actually a good unit
let me just wait for like 40s
or just an electric slot rn
i would say so
she's in last rite team

and see if swordmancer procs on the first chen battle skill?
and you can put her on the bridge for mood recovery
0sp arts buff + arts unit holder
No, ofc it does not.
replaced very quickly by more specialised units or a better generic
First skill is not status application
oh you're just trying to see if entering the area itself is resetting the timer for some reason instead of being combat related?
Yeah no just figuring out why your first try did not work.
i think it is
i waited for ~1min
I'm a big fan of Ardelia's P5 after testing it today anyway. With ideal play you shouldn't need it. But there's so many times when the reduced CD & Corrioson application time has helped.
yep
honestly i think pog point is a trap but it probably depends on how you've raised your characters
im not 😭
i run chen but that's only because i do chen solo runs on the side
@ocean hawk here's what support answered btw
wdym with "pog point"?
point = chara you control batk with
ohh, got it thanks
Staying in dijang forces swordmancer go on cd when battle start.
For some reason.

Cuz your character wasn't checked.
it's probably just whoever has the highest attack value + highest auto attack skill level
it's unlikely that it's pog since you're most likely running him as ult gain + art intensity
It's for sp regen something something but I don't like him winding up the whip to whoop ass
So no point pog.

it's not like he gets more sp regen from his final strike
im just chillin in wuling rn
idk
and its 10 stagger if you get 5 finals off
but like
you also don't want to be running a character that spams long ass skills as point
but its one chen proc with the additoinal 10 stagger
in a trimmed run, that 10 stagger won't matter unless you're actually calcing stagger breakpoints
ok if you're going down this route then you'd have to start considering optimal stagger/s given good animation dodge cancels
which i know most of you aren't
Also you have to actively swap for finisher
which is one more work and I don't like it

but yeah long skill animations are a consideration which is why you can troll as lifeng sometimes
I really hope we get full access to Wulling in 1.1 update anyway. 
so, they didnt confirm anything about the current meaning but confirm that it was a bad word choice that creates confusion
i just batk as endmin and switch to lifeng for finishers 
unless you're hitting a breakpoint faster stagger doesn't matter
yes if and only if you reach your next stagger threshold before your next rotation
but still, support answering that so fast regarding damage mechanics is good
otherwise it's useless
well yeah but you shuold be able to with the additional stagger
We likely won't be to honest, I imagine each region will take 3-4 updates to complete 
the biggest reason you would run higher stagger would be for solo comfort because you don't to combo chain bosses to stagger oblivion as a solo unit
Chen Pog and Lifeng all have about the same stagger per second (chen is slightly higher than other 2), endmin has the lowest sps out of them.
So do you guys memorize rotations and trust the process or react and make decisions in real time during combat? I can't get a feel for how combat should be played in endgame
you should follow a rotation and make decisions when something goes wrong
no rotation is hard enough to stop doing because you have a lot of leeway with buffs/debuffs/etc
who will most likely be replaced first on the physical team?
or if something doesnt follow the script
speculating hard but maybe chen
Vuln eater.
she's very good as a staple but she doesn't do anything beyond being a vuln applicator
noooo, my dumb girl
but like she is really good
Well if you know about cancel animation, it's the thing you want to master for endgame
for how simple she is lmao
tbh, her bs and combo reaction time is fast
while the other two, dapan and lifeng need to wind up
just for apply vuln
until you accidentally animation cancel your combo with dodge
Skill issue.
lifeng bs interrupt is actually good
since the first hit still interrupts
it's just bad on certain bosses that walk away (aka everyone that isn't rhod)
sometimes***
its sooo bad on doritos
bosses wont have a chance to walk away though if they get interrupted
mfw i spend 100 sp slamming my spear on bare ground (boss moved away 3 seconds ago)
doritos when it has an un-interruptable teleport:
except that thing
what should u choose for the multiple option ones on all 4 chars? (phys) like the glove on lifeng, etc
but the fat one and the woman its fair game
the lifeng one is the potential reason iirc
depends on your artificing/weapon set. check the notes on that doc for more info
got it, thanks
Phy team is basically the husbando squad rn. 
husband chen
what about chen
ah
@twilit quail iana youve been working on laev rots right? Do you happen to know the rot of laev antal wulf akehuri if shes p5? And if it doesnt change anything whats the regular rot
If you dont wanna think about it now dw its not a necessity rn
Just replace her with Antal an you're fully husbando'ed up. 
then its not mono phys anymore
darn
just remove chen
do you 100% have too power ziplines like is there no way to make them work without relay towers????
pray in the next region, we will have that technologia
Pog
now u can get that trimmed 25 weapon skill emblem
that screenshot is a little wide
sup sup, trying to decide between p3 lifeng or p1 pog with my 6 star selector, is it worth? or just go for a 6 star i dont have
playing mainly phys team
okay is this better
p3 lifeng
id say go for a 6 star that you dont have but min max potentials pretty good too
It's up to you, but between P3 Lifeng and P1 Pog, I'd go for Lifeng
I'm personally someone who prefers getting a brand new copy of a character first, but it's up to you
oh, is there any benefit to collect all standard char first
thanks i can see that better now
waifu collection
Collection purposes and pfps lol
mm im a dopamine junky so pulling a new character is my lifeblood
ah
me when i have two accounts and both of them are hitting hard etch pity
two accounts
f2p chen solo account and my actual account
my F2P account insanely blessed though because it has p1 lifeng and pog
uhh my main account is on maintenance mode lol
since i did all trims on it
so i'm logging in for daily stocks/depots/wuling stuff
so youre going around the globe to place relays the second time
if you just make like 100 relays at the start it's as fast as doing the story
the worst part is waiting for your outposts to level since you literally make more than they can even buy
at least everything is going into one operator
yeah pretty much
the grind to operator level 90 was pretty rough though
i do have my phys team setup to level 60 just so that i can grind mats and stuff faster
i want the rhod trim medal so bad on chen but i am waiting on etch/artifice to bless me
trim chen solo?
damn
i wanna do endmin solo but endmin alone just doesnt work
actually i did do endmin solo and it took 323 seconds
so what's the "most optimal route" when it comes to trying to artifice gear?
cuz rn I'm just crafting the same gear type and feeding it but it's quite slow
Craft good match gears for artificing 2nd stat
cuz now I'm just realizing how much resources I gotta invest just for 1 max artificing stat
if you are stacking stats on different gear pieces, I like rouletting them until they are on the same tier and then move onto the next artifice step
can someone eli5 the logic of perlica in LR team?
Perlica combo applies electrification
That's it

and ult sometimes
Should I swap P5 Laevatain over to more ultimate gain or will it not make a difference? 
why would I not use say Gil + Flourite then
No diff
Flourite issue is long cd like you just get 4 cryo stack in one rotation and then never again, idk much about ange so cant really tell
Elec and stanza bot
hello, what website is this? 
then why would I not use Gil as stanza bot
check pinned doc
Who likes to use white ice Nova?
Has anybody done Ember solos, if so what is the general consensus on Sundered Prince vs Exemplar assuming both weapons are pot 0 and all skills are at level 9
I have a feeling Exemplar might actually be better because of the big Physical Damage boosts and the base 39% ATK boost on secondary stat which might beat out the ATK boost on Sundered Prince's ability as well as how useless +19% crit feels. This is going off the logic that in a solo, I'd be spamming m1s quite a bit and the finishers has a big multiplier that does physical damage. And since it's Ember that means you will be using the finisher a bit more often than usual since she does pretty high stagger damage?
Personally have not run the numbers yet but just a thought
no one rn
it's like what
Laev's 3rd tier weap?
People that dont have surtr sig yet
even then there's the BP sword
I have it tho
Because she cant
oh and the fact that Exemplar's ATK +39% is higher than Sundered Prince's +32% ATK ability, at max essence pot 0
Gather duster.
ty ty
Ult applies nature inflict
Dust gatherer.
we're talking in LR team no?
What does stanza mean
Yes
so why can't Gil be Stanza bot for LR
LR team use yvonne, because LR need cyro inflict
then that's an Yvonne team
not a LR team
nope, yvonne support
clueless
clueless
Lr team does not use fuckin Yvonne
baits come full circle
can you buy never rest from the arsenal shop or do i just settle with thermite cutter
No
you cannot buy never rest from arsenal shop directly
but thermite is better
prydwen is wrong
i see
They might show up in the distant future maybe
not just there, with a lot of things
oh so the standard 6 star sigs dont appear in the weekly rotation?
i bet u guys do not know that cyro infliction comsumption bug from yvonne and LR
thermite it is
still don't understand
you said Perlica is in LR team because she's Stanza bot
but Stanza buffs ops of different element than the wielder
honestly it just comes out to 56% atk dmg vs 39% atk dmg + 28% phys dmg dealt
is there somewhere i can read about characters bis weapons and stuff like that?
LR scales with cyro infliction, why would u want an electric operator in a cyro team
And?
pins
Oh for fuck sake
cryo infliction in LR team is Xaihi's job
perlica combo does not apply electric infliction
gilberta ult does apply nature infliction
from what I remember, phys dmg is less valuable because it gets devalued?
yvonne can cyro inflict as well
any non cryo infliction will reset your cryo infliction stacks to 0
and hence gut your last rite damage
What's the bug?
i didnt say its cbt2
finally someone asks, i was wondering when someone asks
🗿
yvonne and LR consumption does not count as consumption, u only need to activate once
if u r fast enough, it counts as 2 consumption
didnt that get patched like day 1
right now I'm seeing 39% ATK + 64% Phys Damage vs 32% ATK, again, at pot 0 level 80 max essence so like 9/9/4
I cant
do not make me test it again =,=
Anyway
but if you proc Perlica combo it inflicts electricfication
wouldn't adding any cryo infliction on top of that creates elec infliction too
but grabbing exemplar would be gambling on the fact that I'd never get Sundered Prince pot 2 in the foreseeable future
Yvonne has no cryo inflict
Bruh
Just
Go run the comp yourself
electrification is a reaction
reactions and inflictions can coexist
Exemplar ability does stack up to 3 times so thats why it goes up to 64, being 16+16*3
Thinikng about it from an standpoint of efficiency I bet this is the best piece of Akekuri & other supports.... Since its ultimate gain is only marginally lower but you an upgrade it with good match each time? I Reckon recommending Redeemer Seal maybe a bit misguided?
you want the higher value
doesn't Ake want Frontiers + Xiranite armor
Xira gloves
Yes
her banner is at the same time
I mean yvonne story quest is out
maybe it is a day early
Her banner is on the 7th
Yeah but I don't think there's a fixed breakpoint you need an it'll likely save you a million wulling credits in the long run. 
so if you run LR Xaihi Perlica who's slot 4
there's several fixed breakpoints AND you save a marginal amount of credits
Ake needs 500 int right?
needs? no
Is it a breakpoint you want hit with 1% less ultimate gain?
Eyja
who's Eyja
srsly yall need to stop using AK names not every EF player plays AK
ardelia
Then they should
the ~2.5% lost can knock her below a breakpoint, especially if doing fortmaker stuff
yes but that's not the point
Marble?

Why you hate urself
Lol sorry im just a bit biased with ak, it's just faster to type eyja
I mean yeah I play AK since day 1 of EN server too
just shorten it the same way
perlica = fumo 
but like it confuses others
new players shouldnt really be in here trying to get help for basic stuff
so using old ak names is like fine
im not part of it
if this were a help channel then sure
i mean people can be in TC without having playing the OG arknights so it should just be more clear to everyone if we refer to reconveners as their actual operator names
it's not like it's hurting anyone to use their real codenames lol
its a matter of preference
can vs should
case in point
my dumbass

it takes 1 extra line of text to clarify
the channel as a whole is more laid back
Like if you say arde it would take me another 0.5s to realise it's eyja
Idk I think you should play more endfield.
laev < surtr
arde = eyja
gil < ange
every EF name abbreviation is shorter than AK
consider the opposite: new guy who likes to sweat in EF sees someone type "eyja"
- they ask who is eyja and we get this convo
- they look it up themselves and waste at like like 5-20s of their life
gilb
i will forever call gil angelina because i cant pronounce her ef name
Skill issue.
gliborta
I know some FGO mfs sees gil and think of that obnoxious goldy
gilby
gabby
laev = surt
arde = eyja
gilb = ange
pog < hellagur
snowshine > aurora
basically equal
I call pog hellapog
depends entirely on preference
i still call chen chen
yes but no one uses snowshine
guyz my team is floaty funny vacuum girl, wolf dante from devil may cry, man lizard, and woman lizard any tips??????
no
nope
chen is a descendant (implied)
shes the 20th generation down
Damn
doesn't her mother literally have chi xiao
we could get chen on chen action
its assumed her mother is the current wielder of chi xiao
so that's going to be a fun plotline
Chen alter 2
and her father is a random farmer
Nothing ever happens
serious ch'en vs zero braincells chen is gonna be hilarious
Wait
i heard wulfgard is a texas descent but idk i skipped everything
Does Swire have rock cancer
no
no
the pack are siracusan descendants
I am in unbelievable pain
yeah but i saw like very specfici details
like
th eears
actually
you sohuld forget everything i said
this implies it wont be a 'like mother like daughter' situation
Is this actually worth it?
??
??
Yes, main dps
hmm
if I'm switching thermal cutter over to pog what should I put on ake
maybe fortmaker
i would still suggest having a set bonus
obj?
I mastery ult next?
😭
I know, but with Will scalling is very hard to gain significant damage outside skill damge. Like avywenna. I would sacrifice the set bonus for 1000 more attack. The Pog has 6148 ATK.
slabge
Did you accidentally M1 basic attacks?
Bruh
I'm gonna go ask on team-build.
honestly, with will scaling and if you're going pog damage, that might actually be an ideal build lol
I accidentally M1 Laev combo
so now I'm having to M12
yeah its quite hard to stcak his damage with the current amoutn fo set effects so i guess
it was meant to be
now that im looking at it
pain
swipe the pain away
You can get 1 from Gilberta's trial tomorrow
Ok whel
oh sweet
Laev pots aren't that impactful right?
I've got 1.1 mil t-creds, I'm richie rich rn
if you're desperate you can do basic training/operator guides for more t-creds
which was what i did
Not enough for 1 operator

Ok whel
No I just bought out Valley shop by not being a clown and refreshing for Wuling jobs every day for 3 hours
My ST team is like lvl 60's with lvl 1 weapons
