Bro

#

Pleek

#

If buff ordering matters im uninstalling

potent hornet
#

i mean, it didn't before right?

west moon
#

When are we allowed to take shower?

potent hornet
#

why would that be part of the change

edgy crater
#

i mean, my buff ordering kinda different on those pic

midnight stirrup
edgy crater
#

n i lose 120k

potent hornet
#

all that would matter it additive and multiplicative

midnight stirrup
#

hence their comment about it could

#

Gimme my 200 oreberyl

potent hornet
#

so make sure your additive dmg is up then pop multi

midnight stirrup
#

Anyway

potent hornet
#

outside of that it shouldn't matter

midnight stirrup
#

State of Play about to start

#

Byeeee

potent hornet
#

even if you do the additive after the multi as long as it is all there when the dmg numbers pop it should be the same

edgy crater
#

well yeah

west moon
#

What's the deal with lava ult gain again?

potent hornet
#

the only change would come from not having a buff up you did before

west moon
#

I remember it is unique, but I don't know specifically

potent hornet
#

or a weaker buff than before

west moon
#

Some clarity in buffs would be nice

#

Sometimes I have 10 ticking buffs and I have no idea of their origin

#

It just works

potent hornet
#

as far as the player side is concerned anyway

drifting quest

#

Anyone knows what is sanity discount?

drifting quest
#

should be just half cost

west moon
#

Half cost all protocols?

drifting quest
#

x claims per day, probably 3

midnight stirrup
#

Probably specific ones

west moon
#

I'm so fucked

#

I spent all my serums

midnight stirrup

Youll still be able to max utilise it bro

#

Dont even worry lol

120 a day, you got that

Next agony is inorganic constructs, probably aggeloi

I’m losing my sanity over the fact how much mats I need to just lvl up 2 characters skills to 13

Umbral event rewards are lowkey trash. I can forgive the fact that it doesn't yield pull currency, but being dripfed with evolution materials for such challenges

It is not really nice

Dude it’s no use..that guy also been ragebaiting people at AIC section

and events ?

west moon
quaint matrix
#

I guess I also had 80 something then. How I used all of them already?

ocean hawk
#

well, did u crown some skills ?

west moon
midnight stirrup
#

This server has some interesting people breh

ocean hawk
#

since I only did crowning / mastery 2 times until now

drifting quest
#

truly the more time i spend here the less i wish to stay

midnight stirrup
#

No literally

quaint matrix
#

I have crowned 3 laev skill and ult. crowned 2 ardelia skill and crowned 2 lifeng skill both for stronger sus

ocean hawk
#

where all player that has lower than minimum requirements spec

#

seek support

#

and keep arguing

#

I hate it there

west moon
#

How do I build wulfgard into main DPS PerliFumo

midnight stirrup
#

They tarnished theorycrafting too

drifting quest
#

there's no real other tc server i know of

or 1.2 pulls per week

plain wigeon
#

Is this the right channel to ask about rotations?

ripe parrot
elder skiff
#

event last like 27 days so that’s probably the interval idk

west moon
#

5 pulls per month

Finally, endgame we've all been craving

ocean hawk
#

ah shuo already answered

drifting quest
#

the channel is help 3 anyway

ocean hawk
west moon
drifting quest
#

it's both

plain wigeon
ripe parrot
#

isn't it both

drifting quest
#

there are rotations yes

dry kindle
#

Phys Condemned

drifting quest
#

they're more varied than you might be used to coming from other arpg gacha

west moon
#

Some teams are strictly cycled

drifting quest
#

most teams tend to have 3-20 or so

west moon
#

Some teams have action variety

drifting quest
#

unique rotations i mean

plain wigeon
#

I see

drifting quest
#

unless you're doing trims in recrisis you can ignore them pretty much

plain wigeon
#

So for example
Does a Physical team with Lifeng, Pog, EdMin and Chem has one?

drifting quest
#

yes

#

there's a doc pinned that explains the baseline one better than i could

west moon
elder skiff
drifting quest
#

isnt avy pretty good

#

unless its antal elec not gilb elec

west moon
#

Gilb is pretty hard to pull f2p if you already got laeva

midnight stirrup
#

LR lowkey got cooked too

#

Cause u get punished for cancelling

plain wigeon
drifting quest
#

minimal aoe check versus the sgt nuker

west moon

Ability cancelling is bullshit

ocean hawk

It needs to be compensated

I would like to say as someone attempting no hit, the crossbow guy from axe and ballista makes me want to turn dogs into fillets

drifting quest

the only time gated content is umbral monument which is... easy, to say the least

west moon

drifting quest
#

yesnt

plain wigeon
#

Should I do that?

ocean hawk
#

watch it first

plain wigeon
#

She's all lvl6 for now

quaint matrix
#

Umbral is such a joke. I was building up energy to ult on laev and everything is like dead by the time I do it

ocean hawk
#

lemme guess, want to change the topic to essence now ?

drifting quest
# plain wigeon She's all lvl6 for now

if you have spare resources then skill, combo and ult are fine
basic is basically always a waste
if you're trying to conserve resources then take ult to sl7 and do nothing else

elder skiff
west moon
#

I still need to donate like 80$ to pull her

ocean hawk
plain wigeon
quaint matrix
#

And yeah 2.4 pulls is a meme. So if we count out all the permanent stuff we got 16 pulls from dailies in 45 days and 4.8 pulls from umbral and the photo event is like 2.9 pulls?

drifting quest
# plain wigeon Should I do that?

basically for supports like gilberta you want to prioritise levelling skills that increase the buffs/debuffs they provide, while ignoring anything that only increases their damage
Gilberta only has a debuff on her ult, and the multiplier only increases at sl4, sl7 and m1

Why is the Enfield open theme so good makes me want to wait on the loading screen instead of playing the game. sadcat

ocean hawk

https://endfield.wiki.gg/wiki/Gilberta
you can give the skills a look over and see how the multipliers increase per level

I wonder where that might be."Gilberta is a Rhodes Island operator assigned to Endfield Industries under the framework agreement between the two companies. She serves as a Messenger...

west moon
#

Which is on the lower spectrum

quaint matrix
west moon
#

ZZZ got 50 for example

drifting quest
#

per month calcs suck

quaint matrix
drifting quest
#

per patch is what matters

ocean hawk
drifting quest
#

we dont know endfield per patch income because 1.0 is an outlier

west moon
plain wigeon
west moon
#

Monthly adds 12 pulls/month, which is pretty solid for 5$

amber vapor
#

Whatever the pull economy I will just employ my usual method of just saving all my pulls for the next character I like which usually ends up being the most OP by chance

drifting quest
daring dove
drifting quest
#

60 f2p should be the lowest we get, would be insane if they skimped more than that

#

80-100 mark would be nice

#

120+ would be very nice

amber vapor
#

Seems like 5 banner-specific HH tickets from login bonus per banner (spread over 7 days) is to be expected

west moon
ocean hawk
#

if we kept going with 3 char per patch, then 120 is sane imo 1/3 of total chartered banner guarantee

west moon
ocean hawk
drifting quest
#

we should* drop down to 2 a patch

ocean hawk

80 - 90 ish

thin berry
amber vapor
west moon
#

Need more teams for variety, cause playing same cycle for month straight is pretty boring

daring dove
# ripe parrot what is a wish even

I reckon it'll be 2 characters per patch cycle going forward except anniversaries which will be like launch with 3 characters. But that's purely speculation.

ocean hawk
#

building second team when u dont have commitment is kinda..... not good. Even I dont know how to properly use lae rotation (my 2nd team)

plain wigeon
daring dove
#

Opps wrong reply.

distant python
supple epoch
west moon
#

2 chars and third collaboration

drifting quest
#

21d per banner, 2 banners, 42d patches
common trend, works well

west moon
#

If there's collaboration

ocean hawk
#

oh, btw will AK EF had half anniversaries? iirc OG AK has half anniversaries right ?

54 pulls like 3x last year lol

why does his triple shot attack have such little windup

no hit

distant python
#

oh

#

gg

amber vapor
# plain wigeon how so? I don't have her

Her combat skill and combo skill can straight up whiff and her sig buffs DMG only if you crit on those skills (combat skill is one but and p0 burst is 3 hits in a small aoe). Her ult is basic attacks and then a big final attack but you are completely immobile and vulnerable while it happens.

distant python
#

have fun

elder skiff
# plain wigeon how so? I don't have her

crit is generally not good enough right now, purely because crit gears are not that good and there are no crit supports yet, so yvonne is not gonna be better than LR anytime soon until a crit support comes out

ocean hawk
west moon
ocean hawk
distant python
amber vapor
#

I pulled Yvonne and built her with LR as support just for shits and giggles because I already had my LR at a high level so LR was just a sub-dps crutch to my Yvonne

west moon

Any hopes for sankta spearman being good?

#

I kinda like how he looks

plain wigeon
amber vapor

And even with LR carrying the constant Yvonne skill whiffs was tilting

I keep replying to the wrong person.

west moon
amber vapor
#

Which is what Yvonne is supposed to be too but the crit version

west moon
#

She's so unique

plain wigeon
drifting quest
#

the game is currently easy you can use whoever you want, but future proofing advice if you want to chase meta is to skip yvonne

plain wigeon
#

Essences

distant python
elder skiff
amber vapor
#

Think of it this way. LR give a stable DMG output that doesn't rely on RNG versus Yvonne who relies on a coin flip for every attack to do any meaningful DMG

west moon
#

After essences you do 80 > 90

amber vapor
#

LR is self-sufficient while Yvonne needs someone else to apply cold

daring dove
#

They kind of need to release a good CD boosting set. Because right now CR is such a bad stat. Any character that has a CR sub on their weapon is automatically majorly flawed.

distant python
#

you really dont need essences that badly, i just full cleared umbral with only purple essences except for ardelia weapon

plain wigeon

Crit DMG ult

elder skiff
#

crit rate is low and even when crit there’s no crit dmg, crit is so scuffed PerliWheeze

Another essence ticket down the drain. No ATK roll

yvonne is gonna be decent when we have an equivalent of shorekeeper i guess PerliWheeze

"Attacks have a 30% chance to deal 150% of ATK as Physical damage; The chance is increased to 100% when attacking a target that's affected by a GRZMOT Mine"

# drifting quest Consumes 100 HP per second and deals 200 True damage per second to enemies that ...

I can't take it anymore. I'm sick of Hoederer. I try to play Kal'tsit. My Hoederer deals more damage. I try to play Ray. My Hoederer deals more damage. I try to play Wisadel. My Hoederer deals more damage. I want to play Sniper/Med. The best team has Hoederer. I want to play Def/Supp, Guard/Vanguard. They both want Hoederer.

He grabs me by the throat. I buy him a laptop. I cook for him. I boot up u-officials stream. He isn't satisfied. I pull Qiubai. "I don't need this much cc" He tells me. "Give me more aspd." He grabs Ulpianus and forces him to throw himself at a Sarkaz Devourer. "You just need to funnel me more. I can deal more damage with Chalice."

I can't get Chalice, I don't have enough ingots. He grabs my investment savings. It's empty. "Guess this is the end." He grabs Ines. He says "Ines, get them." There is no hint of sadness in his eyes. Nothing but pure, next attack restores 25% hp application. What a cruel world.

I think even if we gonna have 3 characters per patch which I doubt we will. And even if we get enough pulls for that like cmon,I can barely gear my second team after I build laev. If the game gave me Gilberta rn I wouldn’t be able to use her. So if in imaginary world I get 3 characters per patch there is no way im investing all of them

Her sig is worse imo compared to navigator

Yvonne got +30% crit rate and +80% crit dmg and she’s still bad, what is even crit PerliWheeze PerliWheeze

amber vapor
#

Because with navigator you're guaranteed more crit rate

#

But artzy only gives DMG inc if you hit a crit on CS or BS

no need to swap out flourite though, yvonne can’t inflict cryo

makes sense PerliFumo

elder skiff

time wasting might help you win but simply dying doesn’t

distant python
#

hmmm

#

maybe pog angle?

#

instead of ember

#

cuase breach will do literally nothing

soft tendon
drifting quest
west moon
#

Actually, why don't we add antal?

#

Then we would have to swap wulfgard though

distant python
#

wulfguard combo too easy to proc

west moon
#

Antal, Fluorite, Pogr, Chen

#

Can we make it worse?

ornate pendant
#

How much is a rotation

#

Like one cycle of skills

distant python
#

antal fluorite have synergy

bad

west moon

#

antal to arclight

#

no one using the elec dmg bonus and no inflicts for combo skill

west moon
#

Arclight, Fluorite, Catcher, Chen

distant python
elder skiff
#

avy does damage, arc doesn’t

distant python
#

she has no spears

elder skiff
#

stall until ult for dmg i guess

#

more than arclight can ever do nonetheless

distant python
#

hmm

#

true

#

wait

#

why arent we using lava

#

instead of chen

#

lava actually does nothing without heat infliction

elder skiff
#

i don’t think we should consider any dps cause they can somewhat do damage

distant python
#

lava needs stacks to do damage

#

and she doestn get stacks

elder skiff
#

lava skill can inflict heat herself and at one point it gonna become 4 stacks

#

and big dmg

distant python
#

4 sp later with no regen

#

okay

elder skiff
#

still technically work though

distant python
#

but you sac all the teambuffs

#

that somone like catcher could give

#

with xiranite

elder skiff
#

lava and lr are 2 dpses that can operate solo because they can apply inflictions themselves though, so they have to be the first to be out of the conversation tbf

thorn shore
#

whyre we tryna fix such a team comp with just one char change

#

dump that shit entirely

elder skiff
#

a team comp that can’t work

gritty olive
west moon
#

It is actually harder to build than team that somewhat works

icy minnow
#

Actual theory crafting PerliStare

west moon
#

To score 0/100 on exam you need to know all right answers

gritty olive
#

She just gets magma stacks every skill usage thinkChamp

elder skiff
#

o yea

#

no inflict

#

but 4 stacks still big dmg

gritty olive
#

Her only inflitctiom is n3 enhanced basic

elder skiff
#

hm

#

still

icy minnow
#

Same difference though, she's too self-sufficient

elder skiff
#

4 normal bs + 1 enhanced bs -> combust -> cs, and like 2-3 of this rotations gonna give her ult

#

not as self-sufficient as lr but still works ig

west moon
#

You still can do story with this team probably

eternal ruin
#

how much atk am i missing out on by not having strength artificed?

#

should i at least artifice strength on the chestpiece?

#

for laev

gritty olive
#

doro are you willing to go for ultspam

eternal ruin
#

i have ultspam already

gritty olive
#

Id artifice strength

eternal ruin
#

alr

gritty olive
#

If you dont mind wasting the artificers potentially on future units

quaint matrix
#

Man I’ve been thinking,like what’s the point of minmaxing if the content is so trivial. Like even with no artificed gear and maxed essence umbral is still so easy

gritty olive
#

doro do you want an integtrated strategies equivalemt

edgy crater
#

which is equivalent

gritty olive
#

Elemental damage

edgy crater
amber vapor
edgy crater
#

yeah no

amber vapor
#

You minmax because you want to, not because you need to

#

You've poisoned your expectations from playing to much whale-centric hoyoslop

ripe parrot
eternal ruin
#

i max my characters for the screenshot /s

gritty olive
ripe parrot
#

I do enjoy the fact that there's a ton of skill expression in this game, so things like minmaxing just get me to the highest end of that

amber vapor
#

Skill expression because you can't turn your brain off and mash but yes

ripe parrot
#

there are a lot of minor things you can do

#

like the difference between someone who semi-optimizes vs doing full optimization is like a crazy range

gritty olive
#

Istg i think people who whines about gacha game combat being very basic wants to do tekken type of combos

#

Go play those instead skadinotpog

drifting quest
#

I like endfields

#

Not too simple, not too complex

ripe parrot
#

It has a good middle ground with a high skill floor and a decently high skill ceiling

thorn shore
#

ok there is NOT a high skill floor

ripe parrot
#

Is it not? In terms of mechanically-intensive combat, you can get pretty lazy with Endfield.

#

The leeway to do things and combo and whatnot are generous

#

you don't really get unc checked that bad in this game

thorn shore
#

high skill floor means you need to be highly skilled to perform at a base level

drifting quest
#

Low skill floor
Med to high skill ceiling

gritty olive
#

doro i believe high skill floor to “learn” the actual rots

ripe parrot
#

oh I meant the opposite. low skill floor, sorry

#

I just mixed the term up

gritty olive
#

Lets just not use jargons xdd

#

For clarity fr

#

Low knowledge barrier for damage
Potentially high skill expression

indigo cobalt
#

Is this additive or multiplicative with other things like attack increases from main/secondary atributes etc ?

drifting quest
#

Stat based attack% is multiplicative
Other 'external' attack percent is additive

gritty olive
#

[baseatk * (1+baseatk%) * (1+conditionalatk%) + flat attack] * [1+attribute attack%]

#

It goes on the base atk% portion

indigo cobalt
gritty olive
#

If we remove flat atk, then all of them are multiplicative to each other, but same buff = additive to each other

drifting quest
#

Is it multiplicative with stanza and thermite effects

#

Huh

amber vapor
drifting quest
#

I gotta double check some calcs tomorrow

amber vapor
#

More buttons = better combat mfs when they still struggle to do DMG with two buttons

quaint matrix
#

The problem with that game for me is that I kinda want some of the new characters and build them and play around but I’m so tired of echo grind, the general routine there like dailies,open world exploration and events. It felt good once but now it’s just a chore. Boring and not enjoyable anymore

midnight stirrup
#

Managed to max out Det Unit to 6/6 without using cooling gel

#

Goodge

Can keep it for my LR when I get my essence in a billion years

bro this game is wack

literally just missing ember now'

holy dodge

i have gotten like uhh

bronze plume

i shoulda got ember from the selector for the gang

#

but alas pot1 ardelia

tight haven
#

20 6* so far

#

no ember

bronze plume
#

no point leveling cuz you dont get standard pulls from promotions unlike 99% of other gacha games

tight haven
#

im probs gonna e4 her soon

#

just for her dijiang skills

bronze plume
#

im just working on essence atm

#

going to max the support of clannibal then full max ards and laevs essence

tight haven
#

i actually did get an yvonne sig essence randomly

#

hm

echo crown
#

Been hearing that Ember is now the danjin of arknights

rare nimbus
# bronze plume who invited you

Shes dope I love her. Almost done with the wedge. but im also farming the essence for her BiS weapon that comes out in the next week and a half

bronze plume
#

congrats i guess

wicked cipher
bronze plume
#

i just dont like her its not a matter of her being good or bad

elder skiff
#

is wedge or sig better for yvonne though, wedge effect is always guaranteed to activate but her sig requires crit on BS or CS which is normally ~60%

quaint matrix
# bronze plume who invited you

Brother. Im really sorry for announcing this horrific truth. But it’s over for you. Account forever bricked. There is no turning back from this

elder skiff
#

i don't really like her sig tbh

wicked cipher
tight haven
#

assuming a team of xaihi gil lr iirc

bronze plume
#

is wedge better then nav for her even?

tight haven
#

though i still feel like lr yvonne is bait

tight haven
edgy crater
#

it is a bait

#

u just end up using yvonne on 3 lr op

tight haven
#

at p0 vs p0 i believe wedge is SLIGHTLY better

bronze plume
#

poor bp weapons bro

tight haven
#

but since its cheap to p2 nav it just wins

tight haven
#

or perlica

bronze plume
#

lr as in last rite?

summer flower
#

will we have later operators with rifles instead of handcannons?

edgy crater
rustic knoll
#

some1 give me an essence 101

tight haven
#

yvonne can definitely reach over 1m

edgy crater
#

n dat with assumption, lr as subdps

tight haven
#

if you cant its an investment issue

edgy crater
tight haven
#

oh

#

yeah

#

yeah.

#

lr just trashes yvonne in every use case

#

its embarrassing for her

edgy crater
#

from current record, yeah

mild quarry
rustic knoll
#

so there is this

rustic knoll
#

i understand i have to farm for like 3 stats i want , bu what is a pre engrave etc

rare nimbus
bronze plume
#

pre engrave just lets you select the stats you want it to roll into and it will always roll those stats

dawn patrol
#

hi chat

rustic knoll
rare nimbus
#

but it only allows u to select 3 attribute stats and either 1 secondary stat or skill stat. so its still RNG at the end of the day but with a slightly better chance to get what u need

gritty olive
#

Without it

#

Chance from around 1/24 drops to 1/4096 or smth

rare nimbus
lost raft
#

Is Detonation Unit universal or "ok-ish"?

gritty olive
bronze plume
#

tldr use engraving if going for a 3/3 essence dont use them if you just farming em for etching

rustic knoll
#

i see so i pick a few stats i would like (use the cheat sheet to know what i am looking for) , i have a 1/24 chance to hit, once i hit the jackpot, i dump other shit i nto it till its maxed

#

ye?

rare nimbus
#

etching will be the death of me

summer flower
#

which healer for phys team?

dawn patrol
bronze plume
#

supporter weapons dont really need anything besides the last stat since support ops dmg doesnt really matter

rustic knoll
#

i see and how much typically do u need to spend for upgrades till a maxxed BIS essence?

dawn patrol
#

a lot

rare nimbus
dawn patrol
#

ion even have one yet so

bronze plume
#

probably over 100

rustic knoll
#

so u infuse 100 golds into it roughly ?

dawn patrol
#

at least 4

bronze plume
#

hitting the 8/9 etch is like a 1% chance

neat snow
#

But once you max the essence the weapon will glow 🙂

bronze plume
#

45 failed attempts gives the coolant to max it

#

thats 90 on just the last 2 alone

rare nimbus
bronze plume
#

50 on just +4 +4 +2 is rough

rare nimbus
rustic knoll
#

when you etch do u have to have a matching stat to etch or can it be ANY of same colour

neat snow
#

Just gold

bronze plume
#

any

rare nimbus
#

even at high rate I still failed it like 6 times lmao

rustic knoll
#

ok so its basically the exact same gimmick as artificing but ur stamina locked instead of wuling bill locked

dawn patrol
#

i'm at 4/5/3 on my scathe and it's so soul draining

bronze plume
#

pretty much

#

my laev is 8/9/3 and im losing it

rustic knoll
#

im finna farm kravenger essence even tho i dont have kravenger 🤣

bronze plume
#

only need 60 coolant for the 450 tho

dawn patrol
#

you're basically there already

elder skiff
#

got lucky on the etching and still took me like 15 days worth of essence farming for a 6/6/3 for scathe so it's gonna be worse for other weps

dawn patrol
#

60 is just one double run

bronze plume
#

that is how math work yes

rare nimbus
thorn shore
#

whats ake ult gain breakpoints? worth fort over thermite?\

rustic knoll
#

and at what point do u use coolant gel, for the final hit on each stat?

bronze plume
#

i only use it for the final and 8/9

bronze plume
#

my main 2 are this so far

rustic knoll
#

and w this

#

why are there some weapons named twice

#

like there are 2 kravengers with LR on both of them

because theres more then 1 place you can get them

Incorrect substats

ehh, a lot of stagger

And sacking all damage output

ember does dmg?

Ye

bronze plume

oh yeah i get it

distant python
#

Basic attack and finisher's

bronze plume

account dmg

🥀

distant python
#

Ember is probably the best basic attack user

elder skiff
#

ember will deal dmg at p5, im half way through PerliWheeze

distant python
#

Every other character kinda wants to skill a decent bit

#

Ember skill is

#

Quite bad

#

Tbh

elder skiff
#

10% atk gonna carry her dmg or smth

bronze plume
#

thats just because

#

ember is bad

distant python
#

Left click with sundered

#

Good stagger

#

Ult is nice

#

Combo can be nice to force a proc and extra vulnerable stacks

quaint matrix
elder skiff
#

buffing only the wielder is so weird

quaint matrix
#

yeah

summer flower
#

yea, i'm considering crit set

quaint matrix
#

she could be descent with p5 and teamwide buff

summer flower
#

with sundered

#

but i would need a freaking essence to be correct

#

man, i wonder how to equip ardelia for best healing

elder skiff
#

the forbidden ardelia lynx set

bronze plume
#

if you want pure healing you just

#

use lynx

distant python
#

Devious work

summer flower
#

its because of sundered

distant python
#

Yeah

summer flower
#

i took sundered instead of other option

distant python
#

Yep

summer flower
#

due to other option occupying same box as jet

distant python
#

Same

tough coral
#

I WISH ZFY IS LEAKED SO I CAN THEORYCRAFT

distant python
#

How much crit can you get from security set

rustic knoll
tough coral
distant python
#

And are the substats even usable

rustic knoll
tough coral
#

i pulled e1 with 40 bc i just like gil

#

i think she'll be great with zhuang

#

(im coping)

rustic knoll
#

pre sure some not official leaks said she has an aoe ability so grouping will be nice

tough coral
#

bc electro and nature dont interfere with each other

#

i mean a lot of the current ops benefit from grouping

#

so i think gil will last a long time

rustic knoll
#

and even if i get gil now she will just be collecting dust cuz my only team rn is last rite

tough coral
#

u sure?

rustic knoll
#

how can u fit her in

#

i guess replace ardelia ?

tough coral
summer flower
#

so for perlica + avyenna i could slap two natures?

ripe parrot
#

god damn it took so long but i finally did it

#

super sloppy though

#

almost panicked and threw really hard at the end

drifting berry
#

I think Gilberta doesn't have uses on Last Rite team outside of 1 rotation kill.

If I'm correct because Gilberta ult applies Nature and this messes up with cryo application once you start the next rotation, forcing you to waste an skill just to clear the nature infliction. Still viable probably

tough coral
drifting berry
#

Ardelia doesn't apply nature so she doesn't have this problem

tough coral
#

and then her BIS gives you arts dmg bonus up to 40% i think

tough coral
#

yea gil is used more for one shot nuke
