#

It doesnt count towards pity, so its only worth for gamba or if you want the rate up

frozen tide
#

Multiplier wise considering crits especially yvonne should just hit higher single instance dmg than rite

swift tundra
#

Last rite has the fastest "f2p" P0 clear on Rhodagn currently at 21 seconds. 11 seconds with whale setup. Nothing is currently beating that.

midnight stirrup
#

Ill believe it when I see it

frozen tide
#

But i also haven't really seen that crazy Yvonne numbers

midnight stirrup
#

Highest ive seen Yvonne hit is 200-300k

frozen tide
midnight stirrup
#

And her damage isnt even single screenshot

#

She racks her damage up into a total number

drifting quest
#

Only if you dont mind losing 10 pulls to guarantee for a future unit or 6* pity

midnight stirrup
#

LR does single screenshot dmg

next helm
#

Yeah

#

My luck is kinda poop

#

so Ill never get something form the phantom 10 pull

midnight stirrup
#

I didnt either

#

then I got Gilberta the next 10 pull

#

😈

vagrant sparrow
#

is exemplar just bis here if im building phys team

midnight stirrup
#

Exemplar is Da Pan BiS

#

Detonation Unit is the overall best choice

frozen tide
#

No other weap is used on a phys comp

#

And examplar is goated for panda

#

What box has that selection btw

#

Jet deto exemp is kinda lux

#

Wedge is aight as well

cedar lava
#

What gear should i put on Perlica?

next helm
#

Depends on the team

cedar lava
#

Im playing her with Laevatein

frozen tide
#

Perlica laev

#

Would that even work

cedar lava
#

i like Perlica and Laevatein, that's why i use both

frozen tide
#

Well that topic aside

#

Perlica generally runs pulsar for 2 reason

#

First is that the stats work nicely with her being int main will second

#

And her forced electrification debuff scales off arts intensity

#

And secondly when she triggers that electrification the set gives her 50 percent electro dmg increase

#

Which amps her ult dmg nicely

next helm
#

Combo skill applies electrification

#

But you can't use her Skill

cedar lava
#

Should i run 4 pieces Pulser then or slot another piece of something in?

frozen tide
#

4 piece is fine

#

You can off piece if you want

vagrant sparrow
frozen tide
#

I run ult gen gloves only because i run her with rite and rites sp return property means perlica gets no fucking ult charge

#

I assume that wouldn't be a problem usually

vagrant sparrow
#

feels so bad farming essences just for the fodder

#

btu is like... most weapons are irrelevant

#

just trying to get Exemplar + Thermite cutter essences rn

frozen tide
#

I think i picked deto from it and forgot

#

Don't know how else i would have p2 deto

neat snow
#

I just tried triangle boss without foods to see how doable it was before I used resources and I one shot the trim

frozen tide
#

Goat

halcyon zenith
#

Gilberta worth it with p1 surtr + last rite and rest at p0? Or better to just wait up for future chars? The grouping seems nice but idk how useful she's gonna be compared to other stuff

for auxiliary lines you can't do any better

Here is the best guide on the Artifice system for Gear in Arknights: Endfield. Artificing is a pricey process that requires catalysts and thus stock bills, extra gear pieces, good luck, and a whole load of tears when you hit pity like I did for this video. Gearing is kinda complicated and there's a lot of nuance that this guide can't get too muc...

got it, thanks

high finch
#

this yvonne team used only if you prefarm ult so you can just 1 rotation the boss?

drifting quest
#

it should be best for longer rotations too but also its yvonne you really dont want to go to a second rotation

sand sentinel
#

Whats better to pick? Lifeng p1 or ardelia p1?

drifting quest

if you play phys > lifeng
if you play arts teams that use ardelia > ardelia

btw does forced reactions like perlica elecrify stacks with art intensity? Also forced reactions are always lvl 1 right?

yes

#

intensity increases their effect

she needs like wolfguard but cryo

also here,what is weakness factor?

oh nvm,i had to scroll a bit lower my bad

woeful plume

oh gilb quest

daring dove
#

What's the max possible int for Laevatain without buffs? I'm guessing I'm still about 40 away?

drifting quest
#

probably higher

#

i dont think anyone cared to check the rainbow setup with the most int

#

Would be funny to see an Laevatain with 8k ATK double slab even if it isn't that practical.

torn raft
#

Is it worth upgrading ember to lvl 60 just for the t2 exp cabin ability

drifting quest
#

yesnt

woeful plume
torn raft
#

Im wondering when it pays for itself lmao

woeful plume
#

eventually is the easy answer

torn raft
#

I think i can probably comfortably do the lifeng and perlica upgrades for mood recovery

#

But this one is questionable

#

Also it's sad that even yvonne's cabin ability sucks

ripe parrot
#

the fact that cabin skills aren't tied to the promotions is truly evil

#

also technically if you want to sweat you can do rotations instead of getting mood recovery operators

torn raft
#

Even with sweating mood recovery can let you put the high value cabin operators back in faster

#

You're right tho i need to tryhard the exp cabin @ripe parrot

ripe parrot
#

I haven't done any of the math to see if even sweating out the cabin is worth the effort

#

maybe I'll look into that soon

drifting quest
#

is the idea

ripe parrot
#

because i don't have any cabin skills at the moment other than the super basic ones

torn raft
#

I guess that's fair, surely one of the next new ones have a double exp skill

drifting quest
#

also the way it works is you'll only get a roi for xp

#

and it requires making l1-60 xp

#

not level 61-90 xp

dusk fog
#

Do boss enemies scale their resistances with level or just HP and ATK

drifting quest
#

tldr i wouldnt level bad units for marginal extra dijiang gains

torn raft
#

I see it as getting a roi on everything since it would allow me to not need to spend as much sanity on exp

#

Or any at all if im lucky

#

But yeah ill probably just leave ember skill at lvl 1 probably not worth the small upgrade to the lvl 2 exp one

ripe parrot
#

I'm probably only going to upgrade cabin skills that take protoprisms

#

and not do any of the protohedron skills

torn raft
#

The double skill ones are turbo worth

#

Ardelia, pog, surtr, gilberta

#

The clue building netting me avg 20-40 arsenal tix a day, it's nice

high finch
ripe parrot
#

I'll start investing in purple ones when I have about like a hundred more protohedrons lol

drifting quest
#

potentials and sig especially do a lot for his personal damage

ripe parrot
#

sig goes hard

drifting quest
#

no 6* weapon relegates him more to xiranite holder + ult bot

high finch
#

so if we have chen who does around 20% team dmg and how much lifeng gonna be?

#

around

drifting quest
#

depends on investment

#

that goes for all 4

lime bear
#

Laevatain proper teammate when that actually synergize really well and not ult bot 1 and 2 EndminThink

high finch
#

i want to make lifeng a beast

#

i have 2nd best spear

#

gonna pull his signature

lime bear

I'm not in mood to raise a 2nd team so prob gonna ignore Valiant

drifting quest

rossi

lime bear
#

might grab Clannibal if it rotates for the shop tho

high finch
drifting quest
#

ignore valiant but grab clannibal

#

a choice for sure

high finch

cause i'm gonna pull his signature anyway

lime bear
drifting quest
#

higher investment sig pulls ahead a decent chunk

#

lower investment pretty even

lime bear
#

tbh I actually might raise Physical as 2nd team more than Last Rite but I still dk

#

got Thermite for Pog, maybe buy Valiant for Lifeng and Sundering for Chen ig

ripe parrot
#

I'm waiting on second team investments until we see what kits the new operators will have

lime bear
#

but I don't want to raise Endmin or Dapan tho

#

cuz I feel like proper Physics MDPS soon tm

#

Chen can just use Sundering right

mild quarry

But endmin going to get more potentials in the future

tranquil burrow

@drifting quest do you think Endmin P5 gonna pull ahead of Panda, do we even know what P5 Endmin does rn

cuz it's??? when I checked

high finch

i think i can farm lingyang signature essence but use it on valiant for now and grade for 9/9 and when i get his signature i swap

drifting quest
lime bear

true ig

#

hmmm

daring dove
#

Laevatain at P5 feels a lot better with ultimate gain at 80% plus rather than 75% as people have been suggesting. Sometimes with 75% I found myself missing a tiny bit of ultimate energy & was unable to burst. Now it's 80+ that's no longer an issue. 108_yaehmm

Instead of summoning for Lifeng sig

Anyone familiar with Lifeng and his weapons know what the numbers say in regards to this?

My current best option for Lifeng is P5 Pathfinders atm, or Chimeric. I see Valiant is on the rotating Arsenal shop for 2.4k, but there is also the Mountain Bearer standard banner. I'm really disinclined to pull on a standard weapon banner, but how does Valiant compare to Mountain, and is it worth spending the Arsenal on (I have like 17k saved up, and haven't pulled on limited banner yet), or should I just go with Pathfinder/Chimeric for now until I get a random upgrade? Is Valiant worth the 2.4k arsenal, or should I just hope to get a random Mountain down the line instead?

high finch
#

if i pul xiranite gloves on lifeng will it make it easier to get his ult faster? like he doesn't lose that much stats cause everysingle of his substat scales him

People keep saying you only need 175% ultimate gain, but for me it feels way more comfy when shes 80+

ripe parrot
#

i haven't crunched the actual numbers but maybe like 5-15%? it honestly varies because lifeng goes crazy with high investment but that's a very big cost getting him to level 90 with 90 wep, artifices, etc.

just having lifeng will help you not have both da pan and endmin in the same team

I might be hallucinating but I believe you can fully transfer levels between weapons by feeding one to another, so you could level a bad weapon to 90 and then feed it to his sig or whatever later if you get it

The exp does but the ascension mats don't, so it just stopped at 20. I didn't actually consume the weapon but if it doesn't return overflow or add that in the feature is a complete waste.

Especially since Wuling is not mandatory at all for all content

You don't need gold gear till you want to build true endgame teams

@drifting quest has it

tranquil burrow

btw I just found out umbral has trimmed medals too, and relatively easy ones, just need to clear agony mode

tranquil burrow

OK Idk how easy or hard agony is but surely can't be worse than speedrunning medals

amber vapor
#

According to beta testers it's easy asf

drifting quest
#

if you can trim you will not have any issues with umbral

amber vapor
#

And I can imagine them nerfing it because the worst casual players don't read and can't even comprehend the concept of a "rotation"

tranquil burrow
#

I gave up on the concept of a rotation as well tbh

#

as long as you understand that you want to align buffs debuffs it all works out

amber vapor
#

I mean the most quaint way of describing a rotation is just cool downs

high finch
amber vapor
ripe parrot

honestly "rotation" is a bit of a misnomer since it's more of a priority system. we don't have the SP to constantly fuel true rotations

Is there like a guide for order of artificing equipment? Esp for laevatain?

manic blade
ripe parrot

but tl;dr get your ult eff to a certain breakpoint and then do everything else

I still find double slab hilarious if it ends up being a proper meta option

idk it works for me so im sticking to that

drifting quest

it is on other units e.g. I know iana likes it for gilb and lifeng

frigid vector
#

ok blessed, at this point there's too many options Kek

halcyon zenith
#

Bruh how is there like 10 items and already so much discussion on laevatain set PerliWaaaaa

frigid vector
#

gilb works well with it because of main stat match no?

drifting quest
#

yeah

#

and lifeng because he has 3 main stats lmao

torn raft
junior owl
#

prolly works cos p5r9 im not sure

manic blade
#

half the builds online have slab

junior owl
#

but it did give me better clear time with same rot

frigid vector
#

single slab is the best for single target ardelia rotations

manic blade
#

there's a mole in the mix

drifting quest
#

or its 3 subs and 1 main rather

frigid vector
#

since you're SP capped

drifting quest
#

0.5% for agi, 0.2% for str int will

frigid vector
#

so it's a fair recommendation

torn raft
#

thought the meme slab build was running 2 of them

#

not the one with hotworks

frigid vector
#

just that if you then run ake instead of ardelia, or gil, etc then rotations change

halcyon zenith
tranquil burrow
drifting quest
#

akekuri has always been the baseline here so slab is doa

frigid vector
junior owl
#

altho slab 2 and tidefall only gets me 5s faster so whatever

frigid vector
#

think we'll have some big meta shifts when it's out unless the next 3 stages we were meant to get are bossing/pure single target

manic blade
#

still never building antal

frigid vector
#

considering we have lae and gil both right now I feel they'll want to shill aoe for a bit

#

we don't know how it'll rotate or update, but single target seems more yvonne shill angle

drifting quest

we know there's 2 variants but only of 2

that's what I'm doing

#

mi fu/fangyi waiting room anyways

#

premium elec team trust

drifting quest
#

too poverty for prem elec

#

but avywenna elec looks fun anyway

frigid vector
#

it IS

#

blowing shit up is just chef's kiss

#

just annoying to set-up all the buffs for

tranquil burrow
halcyon zenith
#

I'm debating getting Gil for grouping but I'll probably just skip and see if we're getting anything op

junior owl
#

saw some cn names on friendlist, found out only p5s use double slab, the rest just go standard tide hotwork or hotwork slab

frigid vector
halcyon zenith
#

Tho if it turns out BP + monthly can sustain 60 pull banners I may do that

frigid vector
#

like getting trims isn't even that hard as it is right now

drifting quest
#

its likely just a 1.0 thing

frigid vector
#

but if you're pushing sub minute clears

#

you need to optimise more

drifting quest
#

i would expect 1.1+ difficulty to slowly increase

junior owl
#

maybe double slab is a thing afterall

drifting quest
#

as is the norm

frigid vector
#

also that

#

very early days

tranquil burrow
halcyon zenith
#

Yeah that's my issue

drifting quest
#

compare it to similar genre cough hoyo cough kuro and their 1000% hp gaps from 1.0 to live

frigid vector
halcyon zenith
#

Gil seems kinda nice but idk if she'll be worth throwing down the pulls

junior owl
halcyon zenith
tranquil burrow
#

I'm also of the mind all 4 of the upcoming chars are 6 stars unlike what I hear about Tangtang or Mi Fu potentially being 5 stars

drifting quest
#

thinking on it I didnt see an event tab for a login event so its only 15 'free' pulls on her banner even

tranquil burrow
#

They will do login event, it already has expiring tickets

#

They've nothing much to lose if they want to prevent f2ps or whatever from hoarding too many pulls

junior owl
#

double slab let me slap rhodagn in 1 ult while hotwork + slab still have leftover hp when lae ult is done

drifting quest
#

the laev one was iirc

tranquil burrow
#

Well, we'll find out soon anyways

drifting quest
#

and the other stuff for gilb's banner, plus events, are there

frigid vector
#

tbh there were login events

#

I wasn't even aware of

tranquil burrow
#

I'm assuming we have it though, would be very surprised if we don't

frigid vector
#

like the "sharing memories" web one

drifting quest
#

maybe i missed it or it wasnt listed

#

i certainly would not complain about free pulls

halcyon zenith
#

I hate the trend of putting events outside of the actual game

frigid vector
#
#

the one I'm talking about

tranquil burrow
#

99.99% of the time the rewards are worthless anyways so for now I don't really care

halcyon zenith
#

Web, app, whatever, the worst is if it's several outside locations

torn raft
#

I do not like doing the browser events

frigid vector
#

if you go through the notices/events tab on the game

#

click through to it

woeful plume
#

if im gonna miss a rate up unit cuz i didnt do a browser event

#

so be it bro

frigid vector
#

like you can get oroberyls by following socials but from the in-game menu

#

then there's the worldwide release one

#

then there's the photo share

torn raft
#

it's a crime that there's a monthly daily on the browser

woeful plume
#

we are in 2026 and we still have this web event thing

tranquil burrow
#

I don't even have accounts for those socials, just click and claim anyways lmao

tranquil burrow
frigid vector
tranquil burrow
#

Mandatory login

torn raft
#

there's still mats in there

tranquil burrow
#

Like, worth 10 sanity maybe

drifting quest
#

external login events are the norm

#

i never remember to do them

frigid vector
#

tbh

#

if they were integrated in some way

#

like hoyo stepped up their game and I can do it via the phone app

#

where they have a home screen integration

torn raft
#

last week is pretty good

drifting quest
#

cant you do it by skport mobile for endfield

frigid vector
#

logins can also be done via SKPORT app I think but

torn raft
#

I shant be missing this

frigid vector
#

there's no home page integration so you gotta manually open

tranquil burrow
frigid vector
#

unless there is one and I haven't realised it

#

can just tap "daily" on my home screen and it's done pretty much

#

whereas SKPORT I need more clicks

#

convenience is all

torn raft
#

anyways they're not going to get me to download an app

#

I refuse

tranquil burrow
#

Same

#

Either it's in-game or it may as well not exist for me

drifting quest
#

Its a mostly meaningless amount of rewards

#

If you care save the tab in browser i guess

frigid vector
#

it's very minor yeah

junior owl
#

does basic attack bonus% apply to lae batk during ult ?

drifting quest
#

Yes

torn raft
#

browser login i added it to my new tab bookmarks so it's not rly that bad

drifting quest
#

The multiplier is tied to ult rank
The damage type is basic attack

junior owl
#

mi security + hotwork glove + double slab it is then

frigid vector
#

it's kinda weird cause for battle skill I think they list it as BATK

junior owl
frigid vector
#

but it's still considered battle skill damage I beleive?

junior owl
#

instead of tidefall

frigid vector
#

since that's why hot work is stronk

drifting quest
#

Its skill yeah

#

Just translation error

torn raft
#

time to switch languages and use an autotranslator

next helm
#

Is it better to focus on one essence

#

or just go to 4/4/3 or something and go to someone else

drifting quest
#

focus on one, put any beneficial fodder on especially supports

#

e.g. i 6/6/3'd for laev but have purples with +2/+3 beneficials on supports

tranquil burrow
#

If you have a team where most units contribute dmg equally it's cheaper to distribute upgrades

drifting quest
#

that too

#

case by case basic

#

even for phys though there's generally safe clear priorities

next helm
#

Endmin essence is avoiding me

broken shale
#

i am trying to minmax and save as much as possible, is it a good idea to use originometery for sanity?

torn raft
#

probably not

broken shale
#

trying to build my phys team rn

torn raft
#

I think it's not worth losing out on potential weapon arsenal tickets

tranquil burrow
#

Most efficient use of origeometry is for purchasing weapon pulls if you're a spender, otherwise just hoard I guess

drifting quest
#

if you're whaling then you can sanity refresh

#

else save it for battle passes

broken shale
#

im not a whale, and how do u buy weapon pulls with it? the battle pass?

tranquil burrow
#

I think it's 3 origeometry for 2 refreshes that equate to a single run

tranquil burrow
torn raft
#

the sanity will just get obliterated by surtr's weapon

#

a tragedy

broken shale
tranquil burrow
#

A refresh should've been 80 sanity. 40 is a tragedy.

#

It's ~20% less efficient than buying char banner pulls

#

but buying weapon pulls directly is overwhelmingly more cost effective than buying char pulls to farm weapon pulls

#

But orig sources are extremely rare so you can't really make use of this as f2p or low spender

#

but for spenders this is great because limited + sig is "dirt cheap" compared to Hoyo model

high finch
#

but i dunno if we're getting it back

#

for now only sources we have is gacha pulls, t3 bp - 2400, 100 from weeklies and sometimes 20 from the ship shop

broken shale
#

i dont think they would do that

#

you already get some from the daily market

#

any more would probably be a loss of money

#

not sure how generous they're willing to go

drifting quest
#

it got dropped down to 100/week

#

it was a cbt thing for testing purposes, id guess

tranquil burrow
#

It's fairly decent over the long term.

drifting quest
#

sorry im broke i spend $15-20 a patch for monthly + bp

#

maybe drop a bit more if its cheap to guarantee something i want

twilit quail
#

the ww patch is absolute gas Im probably not gonna be around very much for a while

drifting quest
#

there isnt a ton more to solve for now anyway

#

should slow down till 1.1

twilit quail
#

nd that is still like

#

a month away

tight haven
#

wonder what kinda gear we'll have in 1.1

woeful plume
tight haven
#

or if they're not gonna add much gear

woeful plume
#

i think i can live with 1 fewer 8 pull on weapon banner every month

drifting quest
#

prob 2 new sets

#

id assume

#

1 for each new 6*

tight haven
#

i hope the new gear, if there is any, isnt too tailored to the patch 6*

drifting quest
#

3 if we're somehow on 3/patch

tight haven
#

it'd be boring if the answers to gearing were really obvious

drifting quest
#

id hope they're a little generic but with some degree of shill

#

stuff like hot work laev

#

flexible to maybe go on existing units

#

not guaranteed to be bis

#

yada yada

humble hinge
#

There's no options for middle spenders at the moments in endfield, you either whale with origometry or go homeless with monthly and battlepass

#

Do you think we'll get more bundles?

drifting quest
#

yeah lack of good paid packs is pretty meh right now

#

im not going to ever spend for OP

high finch
#

i like wuwa story but i'm so tired of other aspects of the game,they're so similar and boring

#

i'm tired boss

#

fuck it

drifting quest
#

but im not really encouraged to spend less

high finch
#

gonna log in on 3.2

tight haven
#

the current only bundles are for arsenal tickets

#

and even then theyre not very good value

drifting quest
#

wuwa doesnt fit on my c drive anymore and thanks to ai companies prices in general are beyond what i care to spend just to play wuwa

humble hinge
#

None of the bundles refresh afaik, except materials. But material bundles are just straight up scam

drifting quest
#

so i havent touched that game in ages because it does not run on a non ssd

torn raft
#

were ssd affected?

drifting quest
#

yeah

#

not as much but all components prices went up

tight haven
drifting quest
#

some 100-300 for a decent size ssd

tight haven
#

as well as the 10-roll pack unique to her banner

twilit quail
#

Im running it on cloud gaming

tight haven
#

thats it though

humble hinge
twilit quail
#

but west doesnt have that

#

so bad luck I guess lmao

tight haven
#

yea no its like

#

a scam

torn raft
#

lol cloud gaming

tight haven
#

the arsenal issue system as a whole is a scam

#

unnecessarily expensive and frustrating

humble hinge
twilit quail
#

gaming

drifting quest
#

huh apparently wuwa is on geforce

torn raft
#

is that were you run it on a company's system

drifting quest
#

surely not premium

#

yes

#

you're essentially streaming the game to yourself

torn raft
#

truly going to own nothing and be happy

humble hinge
#

Right now getting legendary signature is MORE expensive than getting legendaries themselves

#

Which is absurd

drifting quest
#

maybe ill consider cloud gaming

#

i need to do the new gambling event on ak first

ripe parrot
#

fidget spinner no hit is actually mind numbing

#

i hate this

humble hinge
#

I calculated origometry conversion rates, and it's just balls. 66 orig for 10 banner pulls, 80 orig for 1 weapon pull, 2 orig for 1 protocol dive

#

I would understand if arsenal issues dropped only 5 stars and 6 stars, but it also drops 4 star trash

#

Like what

tight haven
#

yep

drifting quest
#

free is free

tight haven
#

idk why people thought the arsenal issue system was meaningfully more friendly for obtaining sigs for f2p players compared to the typical weapon banner system

#

it really really isnt

torn raft
#

if you're going for exclusively 120 banner pulls u get around 900 arsenal tix per 10 pull

#

u got that going for you

humble hinge
#

Monthly and BP ain't helping it

drifting quest
#

worst luck is what 8160 or so

tight haven
#

like i get the idea they were going for but the arsenal ticket conversion rate is just too low i feel

tranquil burrow
drifting quest
#

in 120 pulls

humble hinge
torn raft
#

worst luck for arsenal tickets is probably winning the 50/50 at 80

drifting quest
#

so you get about halfway there to guarantee with the worst possible luck

woeful plume
tranquil burrow
drifting quest
tight haven
#

okay i should say

drifting quest
#

techcnially worse luck is winning at 1

tight haven
#

8 and 16 are off intuition

torn raft
#

worst luck is 5020 at 80

tight haven
#

i only ever went up to 4/refresh

#

didnt feel like wasting my origeo past that

real palm
#

normally I'd spend orig on refreshes but stamima feels so low value, like I get next to nothing for it

torn raft
#

but that shouldnt happen

woeful plume
#

from 4 to 8 sounds mental lol

#

i think 1 is fine though

tight haven
#

it might be 6/refresh then 8/refresh

twilit quail
#

4 is the max

tight haven
#

oh is it

woeful plume
#

80 sanity for 1/3th of a pull for a run for sanity is same ratio to most games

twilit quail
#

you get 1 1 1 2 2

#

rest 4

tight haven
#

gotcha

twilit quail
#

or 11222

ghost pinging

drifting quest
#

weird

woeful plume
#

thats insane

tight haven
#

my bad, its still pretty shut value though

woeful plume
#

but yeah dont u guys think refreshing twice is fine

tight haven
#

considering 1 refresh is 40 san

#

it should be at least 2x

drifting quest
#

pinging like random? people too

#

to what purpose

golden cedar
#

what gear set do ppl mean when using double slab for laevatain?

woeful plume
#

oh boy

tight haven
#

probably some stupid ass bot scam

#

raid

drifting quest
#

tight haven
#

whatever

torn raft
#

I started thinking refreshing = losing arsenal tickets

drifting quest
#

the bots usually pose a scam

torn raft
#

so it's worse to me now

drifting quest
#

this is just pinging 2 people with seemingly no connection

tight haven

i do 1/1 everyday

woeful plume

ig i could stop refreshing now

And your daily conversions are limited

drifting quest

Can't get more than 400 sanity

yeah

#

its pretty ass

torn raft
#

i dunno keep coping for an arsenal buff

woeful plume
#

i only did it to rush 6-6-3 on laeva essence ngl

whole crystal
tight haven

if they do an arsenal buff it will likely be to income only

whole crystal

smile 👍

torn raft

just anything

humble hinge

which would be fine

tranquil burrow
tight haven
#

having increased income would be great

drifting quest
#

i think we'll just get some more f2p income in future

tranquil burrow
tight haven
#

im hoping we do

drifting quest
#

since right now its 1-3 years for f2p no pulling to guarantee a weapon

tight haven
#

god the arsenal issue sucks

drifting quest
#

which is a joke

tight haven
#

just the most frustrating gacha ive pulled on in a while

woeful plume
#

people sometimes forget that gacha games exist to get our money

#

nothing is in good faith bro

real palm
#

I feel like Alluvium is the only thing to spend stam on since that's the only way to get them, and just everything else from shops/events and live with the fact resources are just super scarce

tight haven
#

4% rate for a 1/4

drifting quest
#

alluvium is the go to sanity spend right now

woeful plume
#

you know its cooked when pulling on a banner is determined by if the other weapons u can lose 1/4 is good

tranquil burrow
# drifting quest i think we'll just get some more f2p income in future

They've done the math better than us. BP havers can already almost guarantee 1 limited + their sig per patch, or rather, they get the income equivalent to that over the long term. They obviously don't want F2Ps to get both limited + sig, and the bigger spenders will go for dupes + multiple 2 characters per patch.

tight haven
#

yeah laevs banner is a scsm

#

3/4 to get dogshit

#

except for valiant i guess

drifting quest
#

the gilb one looks pretty good

tight haven
#

what is it

torn raft
#

I have p4 of that shit heal sword

tight haven
#

thermite?

torn raft
drifting quest
#

thermite chiv wedge exemplar

#

one more im forgetting that was okay

tight haven
#

holy

drifting quest
#

wnn (on every banner this patch)

tight haven
#

thermite being there is all i need

twilit quail
#

chiv is usable at least

drifting quest
#

oblivion

red mulch
#

If i deal Knock Down after Endmin does the Combo Skill, i can shatter Originium and deal more damage?

twilit quail
#

oblivion is such an evil weapon

drifting quest
#

sig
thermite chiv wedge exemplar oblivion wnn

torn raft
#

Who else uses chiv i thought that was the cope weap for gil

tight haven
#

no stanza is the cope weap

#

for gil

#

its not even cope

#

its fine

drifting quest
#

the only truly bad hit is wnn
wedge oblivion exemplar damage weapons with potentially no clear user or no user for people not playing phys
thermite god tier
chiv decent hit

#

actually wnn wedge might be on every banner this patch

humble hinge
drifting quest
#

maybe oblivion too, idr if it was on laev's

humble hinge
#

She can be on par with avy

drifting quest
#

off rate sword/arts unit/pistol on all 3 banners

#

or maybe it was chiv

#

i dont have the game open t ocheck

torn raft
#

All base operator gonna be on non sigs cause of natural p5 on these off weapons

#

Does last rite still want sig over a p5 sundered?

tranquil burrow
#

Also, I know Laev weapon banner is there for 3 char banners, but the pity doesn't reset for these 3 banners right?

Refer to this for some number crunching @amber vapor

its probably cheaper still

torn raft

Time to burn your daily sanity to get no return

I love essence etching

drifting quest

30 runs for 2 taps, same cost of stamina refreshing is gonna be huge

idk how you fit 15 of them in the what 25s

tranquil burrow
#

Oh, on fodders

humble hinge
torn raft
#

Just add 1 more essence drop

tranquil burrow

they must've kept killing fodder mobs to extend ult duration

That's it

tranquil burrow
twilit quail

no it's single target

with no extension

drifting quest

????

tranquil burrow

so how you do you fit 11 in?

drifting quest
#

one skill is longer animation than 1s though

tranquil burrow
#

I can see maybe 4 with some shenanigans

drifting quest
#

how do you get 15 in 15s

twilit quail
#

it's a stew meeting setup OMEGALUL

tranquil burrow
#

The skill pauses the ult timer

twilit quail
#

the timer is paused

tight haven
#

dude if endfield had an artifact system with randomized stats

#

id quit

twilit quail
#

no stew meeting is 7 in one ult max

tranquil burrow
#

Skill, combo, dodge all pause ult timer. Btw, food buff timers are paused too.

tight haven
#

every time its the most frustrating thing to work with

#

for me

halcyon zenith
#

this pity stays across banners right?
and if so do we have infos on whether bp + monthly can sustain the 50 pulls needed to pull on each banner for the free stuff?

tranquil burrow
humble hinge
#

At least in genshin you can enter abyss 9 times a day, end field has only 3 times a day

tranquil burrow
#

Shuo just learned timers get paused and he died. We're never seeing him again.

twilit quail
#

the fucked up thing is that

#

7 eskill

#

as shown here

#

is actually pretty practical

ripe parrot
#

PerliDerp why does fidget spinner spawn so many mobs in the second phase

#

i love lack of aoe

tranquil burrow
#

If you have two turns of the mob phase it's over, just reset

ripe parrot
#

i'm doing a solo run

tranquil burrow
#

Assuming you're going for trim

#

Oh

ripe parrot
#

solo no hit

chilly bolt
#

question regarding xaihi ult, it says the dmg amp scales with the int stat, so at M3 she would have max amp at 400 int is that correct?

halcyon zenith
# tight haven yes

yes to the latter as well? cuz then id have to do 22 more pulls before gil shows up

drifting quest
#

how do we get from 7 to 15

tranquil burrow
#

Idk my question is where is the SP coming from

twilit quail
#

yooooooooo I hit the tap for ange essence

twilit quail
#

is how

#

but yeah the 7

tranquil burrow
#

Lemme look at vid cuz 7 is very insane to me as well

twilit quail

actually looks really good

drifting quest
twilit quail

it's like

which is insane to think about

oh holy shit I hit a tap to 6 on ange essence

i just hit two taps to 6 in a row

twilit quail

yeah you can see

there's 4 ake combo

we are also looking at

I think?

i am unsure about that

idt anyone can say until we have umbral monument

yeah thats the main question

halcyon zenith

gilb should be out sooner

twilit quail

but yeah those guys are pretty crazy for sure

drifting quest

unless it got pushed back its like 5h for na/eu, less for asia

tranquil burrow

It says 20 hours until Laev banner ends for me

twilit quail

full charge artificed on wulf with obj

tranquil burrow

NA/EU

Where did bro get the aritificing mats for anyways

It takes like 200 to fully artifice one set

it did

7h 47m for asia
20h 47m for na/eu

twilit quail

Im considering making it

Damn Asia getting it that early

twilit quail

tbh

tranquil burrow

Don't

just land every tap

it's just charge rate pieces

easy enough to find use for them elsewhere

I'm from the future

Assuming they have much better SP recovery

ripe parrot

the 4 spears during add phase fidget spinner is so evil

twilit quail

I mean same for physical

ripe parrot
#

i might save ult just to iframe

twilit quail

when it gets actual dps

#

and not mechanicless stat monkey(endmin)

tranquil burrow
#

I mean, Rossi again

twilit quail
#

or numberless 5*(da pan)

tranquil burrow

I feel like she's either heat vanguard or phys dps for some reason

#

Gilberta was heat support in early CBTs iirc

twilit quail
#

can you imagine how cracked fire would be

#

if gilb stayed fire

tranquil burrow
#

They realized early on people would see 2 back to back banners for a team and that'd be doompost central

which is fair I guess, esp for launch

twilit quail
#

yvonne incident

tight haven
#

yvonne releases "worst dpr in endfield history", asked to rescind banner slot to rossi

Is her kit itself bad or is she just lacking suitable supports?

it's a bit of both
