I wish i could get p2 gilb but seeing as how im aboutta hit hard pity for p0 i don't rly wanna spend 300 dollars for 2 more pots

Fr
I see
I’m a dolphin not a whale
Well either way it's fixed now, at least that one was actually misleading
you will have many more units you'll want by then
Im gonna try to stay loyal to lr or atleast cryo
i like collecting p0r1 units anyways
Hope they pump out more gear and interesting char fast, i want to cook some cursed shit
Which set you can even use for AGI/INT correctly?
Cause it looks dire when to comes to this pairing of stats
M1 security
You don't have to worry about secondary attribute matching
Have you looked at it?
If main attribute is first line
They don't really have that pairing at all
Its very close to optimal
Secondary attribute second line contributes very little
You mean ignore INT and put slab as 4th?
Secondary attribute third line is on set with both matching
Lets say your character is agility main attribute int secondary
That's case
And a gear piece has agility first line will second line
Ur not missing out much from second line not matching
Idk man have you
Its very minimal increase from second line matching secondary attribute
It's reversed

It's INT/AGI
more sets next patch then
since 1.1 comes with new region
and we'll probably get those boxes we grab on map
Frontier
Okay, so what set for doing arts Burts then?
Have Agi/Int
What im saying in short is if its agility first line its good enough as far as attribute lines go

Single piece?
And sometimes the third line out weighs attribute match anyways
I spot 4
Yea but that's single set matching
interesting set effect too
While AGI/str have options
I just dunno if getting every X seconds shaved out of cooldown for single nature infliction is that impactful
Is this for Flou subdps build?
I would prefer efficiency to CS ult CS ult alternately
Fluorite support is so great for Last Rite for a quick Cryo Infliction
#arknightsendfield #endfield #lastrite #fluorite
Epic lr fluo gameplay
Detonation unit or Stanza for support Perlica? Peeking at the numbers It'd say Detonation gives more DPS even if full team is of diff element
pots? team?
Fluo main dps
perlica doesnt proc deto to begin with outside of electric
and stanza does not work on electric
idk why i asked for more info
Wulfgard, Akekuri, Perlica, Gilberta, I wanna make the best of this comp
Using 200 sp for detonation unit is def not worth it
Ah, I see, then I'll keep stanza, I'm using edge of lighting on Ake though
makes stanza even better
Seems better with heat and lightning than thermita
what should i farm chat, i feel like i should farm resources for characters but all my characters that i used already built
thermite is a lot better
Idk for wulfgard but on laev, I calced that even with stanza use, thermite is better than obj
Detonation unit is kinda semi-stuck currently to just Antal (either for electric, either for fire teams) and Xaihi
Since Antal is basically free combo and Xaihi is also that with arts burst to that, while others need to use SP/have way better weapon buffs to use (Perlica as an example)
I see then I'll get Thermite thanks. I don't have Laev and I just like this team c:
obj is just
really mediocre
on akekuri
she caps at 2 stacks at best, usually 1
thermite gives more for the same uptime
whats breakpoint for gilberta ult charge%? has 200% and I wonder if it's too high
Yeah, thermite usually gives 100% uptime after first combo, even on leav teams that have half the stagger of usual teams. But even if obj had 100% uptime, thermite’s buff is almost twice as good.
I wanted to make an objection, but then I re-checked their passive and thermite is literally an upgrade
I was upgrading OBJ all this time oh my loooooord, I don’t have mats for thermite now, ouuuuugh
You have to calc gilberta ult regen yourself depending on your rotation. Arclight teams can get away with one gilberta combo and a lot of skills. Last rite need two gilberta combos.
holy
whel
All them whales in this chat
While I’m here debating if I should buy the monthly
The way I see it - if you wanna and it won’t put a dent into your pocket/savings, go for it
Will it affect your budget on other games you're already spending on?
Other games? Brother I’m a college student
Money is a luxury
And so is food
Well some college student play multiple gacha/mobile games, that's why I'm asking.
Then I’m a poor one
Then consider your budget/expenses otherwise better settle for f2p.
You can still enjoy the game with no or minimal spending anyways.
wheres the talkative guy earlier
Is ult gain set laev with sig at p0 a good option vs the usual hot work set?
depends on content
depends on preference
depends on team
depends on skill level
depends on investment
depends ™
if it feels better to you then go for it
What is the best gear for laevatain? There are so many different build guide
I can't take it anymore. I'm sick of SP. I try to play Last Rite. My SP bottlenecks my rotation. I try to play shatter phys. My SP bottlenecks my rotation. I want to play Laev, Phys. They both need SP. It grabs me by the throat. I run vanguards for it. I keep normal string uptime for it. Its not satisfied. I use Akekuri ult. "Combo skill cooldowns run during ultimate flash dumbass" it tells me. "You still don't have enough SP in time for next rotation". It grabs my resources "Imagine rotations, just 1 cycle nuke things". I can't afford to max the team, I don't have enough sanity. It grabs my inventory, there is no stamina refills left. "Guess this is the end". It grabs rock cancer (50 sp refund). It says "Crystalize!". There is no hint of sadness in its eyes. Nothing but pure malice. What a cruel world.
see 2 messages above
I can buy you the monthly
Nah it’s good I don’t take handouts
Gotta pull myself up

Anyone know why sometimes when I use Laev battle skills at max flames it doesn’t trigger the special effect?
Do I need a heat stack on the enemy or smth
Did I manage to hit Corrosion Level 4, or is it just the crit not showing glitch that’s messing with me?
My ult damage was the same as always — I’m starting to think this whole Corrosion Level 4 thing with this combo might be a myth.
are you cancelling it via a dodge or something
or not hitting an enemy with part 1
Wait dodge cancels the skill 
I thought it was a set and done
Lmao ok tks
i think its a myth at this point
the visuals of the cyro stacks don't dissapear for half a second after last rite hits combo skill, but you can't seem to ever react with it
so it might just be a delay in the visual and the cyro is long gone
Yep, the word corrosion don’t appear either
And if I do a bit earlier will just consume the cyro and mess with the stacks
@twilit quail i remember you mentioning that p4 lifeng changes things in regards to his gearing and potentially the team setup cause he may or may not outdps endmin?
i have p4 lifeng+mb now but the sheet doesnt say anything on this so im not sure if thats still the case and how i should gear lifeng now.
does treatment efficiency bonus affect tacticals
P4 lifeng gets Ult charge cd reduction so you can likely lose one of your Ult charge gear for a dmg gear
Calc which gear u can remove based of how long it takes u to get ult
you can forgo any ult gear
because its -15%
idr the exact best gear for lifeng though
it might be swordmancer gloves, double lynx slab and unsure which chest
frontiers t3, swordmancer/mi, yinglung
should all work
couldnt say which is the absolute best of the 3
I can't take it anymore. I'm sick of Lift. I try to stack aspirant. My lift doesn’t stack. I try to play Sundering. My Lift does not stack. I want to lift up an enemy. My lift is not lifted. It grabs me by the throat. I run chens for it. It’s not satisfied. "You still have not applied lifted". It grabs my sanity "Read up my description in Chinese". I can't read the description, I don't know Chinese. It drives me insane, there is no single phys reaction dealt. "Guess this is the end". It knocks me down. It says "You are not knocked down!". There is no hint of localizing in its eyes. Nothing but pure malice. What a cruel world.
Is it better go have fully maxed artificed+essence subdps build or fully maxed ult efficiency wulfgard on laeva team 
he was already running on 3sm+bk chest so then just no change there? i was just interested if iana had any changes for this cuz i remember the original phys page had a p4 lif mention but theres nothign anymore
oooh and forgo set bonus?
i m getting a lot of mixed answers in #help and they sent me here, what affect crush damage? atk, art intensity... does phys damage increase affect crush damage?
Do you have the damage formula for all things?
nope
damn you #help
You coulda started with that
This article explains the mechanics of damage calculation in Arknights: Endfield.
phys damage does but if using endmin for example, skill damage doesn't even though it's endmin skill that does the crush
TLDR crush is basically a normal attack but its skill multiplier is determined by level modifier * arts intensity * basecrushmod
so the effect of grand vision doesn t even increase the crush damage of endmin skill? 
Oh it does
it does because that's phys damage
Grand vision is entirely hilarious
oh wait, i can t read, phys damage increase crush, skill damage doesn t
Anyways go through the damage formula, most things scale crush damage
GV also has arts intensity which scales crush to the moon
good, i m running a max art build with grand vision on endmin, so i expect big crush damage 
ehhhh
You want good ATK and normal damage up stuff
Those scale crush damage too
Have you been introduced to the idea of saturation?
i have no idea what that is, it s my first time here 
Ok but 200 arts intensity is funny
Basically the simple version is you have 4 points
grand vision my beloved
You can do 2x2 or 1x3
full arts is bait for damage
on crush
But notice that 2x2 is 4 and 1x3 is 3
Ie multiplication is funny
And spreading stats out evenly multiplies better
Rather than hyperstacking one stat

The biggest crush comes from good ATK, good phys damage bonus, good intensity, good buffs from supports
That is saturation
That said hyper stacking on supports is the way
250 more AI for Pog
Get that Breach to max efficiency
so a build that is well rounded will outcrush an arts intensity hyper stack build
Maffs
isn t the phys increase from grand vision enough with art gear? i didn t math anything 
yeah just pump atk
it’s pretty good yeah, grand vision is solid, but don’t neglect agility (since that scales multiplicativly too)
id go frontiers armor t3
And set bonuses I guess
well the aether set give agi strengh so i sit at +-5k atk, 200 art and +something phys damage from grand vision 
Dayum
Maybe that works
But maybe it do more if one piece have phys%
Test it yourself tbh
aether set passive 
There is no damage variance in this game so shouldn’t be hard
Aether set passive is fineeeee
oh dear. we goin all out then. alright. do we artifice at all? probably no need cuz on content ig
and better save stuff for when we actually need it. endmin stays in the team for now too i suppose. and then just spam lifeng skill
oh also mb worth etching then
i know it looks bad but to me it does more on endmin than swordmancer

if youre not minmaxing on lifeng then imo just stick to 3pc swordmancer
Aethertech works better on Da Paan than Endmin
the slab build without a set bonus is explicitly for full sending
i see no content to minmax on rn. i just like him a lot. so im happy to do the best for him 😄 too bad he cant be onfielded
double crush team? 
Da Pan can purposely overflow a stack to proc free 16% boost
Oh yeah is there an internal cooldown on Pog’s ultimate? Between harrassments
No I don’t use Endmid

fwiw i do on-field lifeng i just dont initiate fights with him
full sending meaning under certain conditions it is the best? i am happy to make him whatever the best is thats why im askin. my goal is to get the most out of him in general
i also hesitated on endmin vs da pan but endmin is cuter so i made my choice
His autos may be good but those skill cast times are atrocious
it's usually the best after p4, theoretically
:slabge:
yeah i swap off of him
i like lifeng so like
idrc abt the dps loss lol
Seriously he has the best SP gen best stagger rate but those skills
Those damn skills take years
last rite is slightly better*
Rite is fine cos her SP gen is the highest in the game per final strike
It refunds the most comparatively
well then no reason not to swap to slabs then, no real cost involved cuz i didnt artifice anything on him yet cause i knew i was gonna get to p4 eventually. whats the chest then? and whats the artificing prio on him?
well thank you for helping me understand crush damage modifiers, timne to go kill the tiger again bbye 
id experiment with frontiers t3
for chest
and artifice all agi slots to max
then main att% on slabs
if the goal is to stack as much att% as possible then ye i see why. it's the only piece thats not on slab's slot that gives att%
oooh so you auto on him and swap for every skill? since hes technically our carry now you wont be using chen skill at all im assuming so do you have time to auto on him if hes 2xskilling every rot?. do you still run a crusher?
pretty much lol
again i only really do this because i like lifeng
the general rotation is still the same
my phys team isnt fully raised (endmin and chen are still lv60) so im playing it as you typically would with crushes
lifeng is fully raised so it might be worth thinking about how to make him a full-fledged main dps
me when i see fluorite
i would pref pog onfield tbh cause he has the smoothest autos (chen wins but sundering ugly so go die) but lifeng autos are high value i can try to do swapping between him and pog during their respective skill anims. oh for sm gloves you went ult dmg or phys dmg glove?
does phys dmg have agi main stat?
True pog onfielders pull for never rest and get rapid ascent so no ugly sundering anywhere
sadly no it's str will so i'd go with ult glove
ult dmg
Endmin, Chen and Lifeng do
he meant the phys dmg% sm glove's main stat
Ahh ty
it changes his gear cause he can take no ult gain sometimes
with p4
just have him press BS as often as you can get away with it
since you will also get talent 2 activations
mmmh, i can do 150k crush damage on 4 stack vul endmin right now without susceptibilities or breach. just endmin originium debuff, what should be the bar for good enough? 
3x sword and 1 ultgain also becomes way better
Atleast 250
It’s not only about endmin, breach also helps a lot
Yes she also protects Yvonne during ult allowing her to pew pew without dying. Downside: she kinda just sits there being menacing.
It’s prob like 270k with breach
Talent node
Each application is reducing that
By 1 sec with cooldown of 1 sec
And you need 100 sp for an application
it is the number expected with food buffs and breach vs a boss? i should be good then
Just breach buffs
Doesn't matter it's 4*
Food it goes higher but I didn’t check
Can somebody clarify forced arts rxn particularly with Perlica CS, does it mean she will always guarantee electrification regardless if there are no previous elemental infliction?
Yes it doesn't break inflictions as well
So you can have electrification while keeping other inflictions
So it disregards and doesn't consume existing infliction?
I see so Alesh forced rxn is special case then. It's on his skill description that it will consume whatever amount of stack is existing.
It's eat, then force
How about WG's forced combustion in his ulti? Not much details are mentioned...
I need probably wait for better gun for flurorite for my strategy
I Assume same as perlica
Cause I don't think I'm consuming nature inflictions at all
it doesnt consume, just force
Unless it's counting one consumed when hitting 5th
its just the wording
What's the seq all about, seems like a rare terminology?
Seq?
It says dmg multiplier per SEQ
Ohh sequence
seems like it
By part of attack
Doesn't need to be only single hit in sequence
But in wulf case it's probably hit
I've only used Wulf on his side story quest and never really paid much attention. I guess it does DoT
multiplier for each hit
^That
combustion does dot, but its fixed lv 1
wdym by lv 1? Sorry still haven't touched ny fire units except Ember who I use more as phys.
does combustion itself ever do meaningful damage on anything in any situation?
reaction lv 1, as if you do a reaction with 1 infliction stack
i dont know if the wiki is 100% correct
probably on a highly mobile fight due to ticking damage or probably on certain phase that it as to go off field?
it feels weird that the reaction itself seems just useless and people only use it to get it consumed or something
i guess that's actually roughly on par with shatter damage
Consumed or combo trigger etc
it depends since each will do different effect.
Solidification is just CC
Corrosion has -resist
combustion is dot (only?)
electrification = more arts dmg?
right i'm talking about combustion itself
because corrosion actually has a use even if no one in your team has any interactions with it
and electrification only needs someone to be dealing arts damage to be useful
combustion kinda dog on its own
We still don't have aether attack yet but I presume it will be to all elements..
Solidification is what? Stop them moving or slow down if boss?
Does it even slow down bosses? i never paid attention
not attack move and use skill
But seems like current boss has no elemental resistance yet or immunity
solidification might be shit too 🥀
Pretty sure those just slow down
Not completely stop
Seemed like it?
I mean keeping your enemy still while taking the beating saves a lot of time specially if it's too agile and likes to move about the stage.
Even boss can be solidified but not sure this boss has no solidification animation.

Fodder is enemy, boss is also enemy
Enion got me on the 2slab + sm glove + frontier chest scheme
but 3sm+bone ult chest is what i have on him rn so ig that could be kept too if not going for the max att% funnel, tho i definitely see merit in keeping an ult chest for faster ults, especially for daily stuff
Boss isn't fodder
Rhod solidification animation seems like he's juat stunned/groggy
idk he randomly has a stumbling animation when he gets hit so it's hard to tell if it's solidification doing that
look at this shit man
neurons firing everywhere
something else is also firing
my Cannon
almost same 
damn, guess i need to reinstall textools
wtf
3 level 90s in this economy!?
show
Can probably happen because he has 0 gimmicks and his dmg isn't locked behind consuming reactions or whatever I guess and some insanity to invest this much into him. https://www.reddit.com/r/Endfield/comments/1r9uci7/catcher_solo_rhodagn_trimmed_151/
i probably should have just saved resources
Do you do 10x refreshes a day?
no
7x?
barely even do 2 refreshes some days
0 essence farm?
if you don't do stamina refresh where do you get the resources?
i have essences for forgeborn, thermite, clannibal, starry beach, delivery guaranteed, jet, and detonation unit
F2P account definitely
Oh, I have 3 maxed essences. That might explain the resource disparity cuz I do 2x daily refreshes as well 
need to farm one for stanza, oblivion, and probably use some basic one for obj velocitous
i dont bother with first two lines for support weapons tbh
1/3 works for velo
2/3 if you want to cope some pistols agi ultbot scaler will come
I just max out limited/banner units only
only one that matters is 3rd line
So maxed out Laev, Gilberta, and pre-farmed maxed essence for Yvonne
I'm ignoring the rest
in terms of essences
I do have their essences since I've farmed so many, but I haven't bothered upgrading
Same with artificing
My main team is all 9 9 9 essence because I do refreshes 
how many though
Depends what I feel like. 4 minimum but sometimes I'm bored and do all 10
But always at least 4 it's only 2 dollars a day
All 10 
10 is 28 org
man i thought that by now wuling depot jobs would be a little less rare
I thought 10 refreshes was like $70 or something? Idk
basically done with 2 laeva builds, working on hot kits now
We gonna have an Sanity Discount event, best to save some sanity, at least for the humble f2p people, it should be worth it
No it's like 14 dollars
Doesn't it scale 1/1/2/2/4/4/8/8 and so on
caps at 4
Wait really?
yea
What the heck
Right caps at 4
I was thinking it doubled
whos the most likely char to get replaced in leav ake wulf ardelia team?
ake?
you can only do it 9 times
no point going beyond the first two for now tbh
So I thought 10 refreshes must be the giga-est of giga leviathans
The first 4 for 2 dollars is fine
Like Pot 5 paled in my mind before this
probably akekuri if a better vanguard comes along
Ake or wulf
got it, thanks
theres always the chance they basically combine akekuri sp with wulfgard heat generation for a 6* heat vanguard 
I just do 2 since it's cheap enough and I figured I can't possibly obtain more than 1 new character every 3 weeks even at the fastest pace so that oughta be enough long term
level cap is 90
For authority
im sure endfield will end up being like og arknights where after 6 years i have like, 20 mil LMD and infinite xp, with all operators at E2 level 90
I just want to max out every banner char I get and I'm happy
so i dont really bother even doing 2x refreshes a day unless i really feel like it
and recrisis/umbral
Artificing is the only pain but so far I'm kind of keeping up
Started 3rd set today
But yeah I just got my final 9 9 9 for main team today so I don't have to use refreshes if I don't want anymore
Should be able to start 4th set by the time 1.1 rolls around
But I'll probably stay at 2 dollars a day
tbf, on most gachas u have infinite materials after a while of playing
I just calc'd 2 refreshes as 9 pulls a month which is fine enough to me
ye which is why im not too bothered now that i have my main team pretty much maxed out
Whats the cheapest way to buy origeometry, on ios is kinda expensive..
japanese vpn with the official topup website
What's the rate for highest tier pack there?
Like the $70 one I mean, not the $100 one
idk, 16500 yen for the 400 originite one?
I can translate that, works for me
Do you save a lot. Is it worth the bother
eh, that comes out to $106
which is more expensive than just buying on normal rates
you save a lot if youre european lmao
Ah
Yeah when I looked at it it seemed to scale with usd pretty evenly
if youre in say, the UK, youre paying an extra 20% on it
You can look at 3rd party retailers but that's a bit of a grey area I guess
Unfortunately I have to pay tax on everything cause I live in NYC lol
Gacha CCs get sponsered by both them and the game companies so I guess it's not that bad
i dont trust 3rd party retailers so i'd rather just pay for my £5 a month VPN anyway (because UK OSA
)
The $70 pack is $55 on those sites doe
and get a decent discount compared to my usual prices
It’s not like genshin. Third party needs your login
Oh well
Refreshing is silly
Just like P5ing is
the biggest in game pack i think is 10,000 yen
vpns dont work on some devices for akef
Oop hit a nerve
That's the $70 one which translates to $64 here

P5ing and refreshing is quite different
$6 is $6
Use any random personal PC, you only need to log in to a website
Youre spending money for something that comes back regardless to gamble away at odds of an increase
works for pc and any browsers on pc for me
havent tested it on any of my apple devices
P5 is unique upgrades and profile art. Not quite the same
its per vpn too
and i dont have any android devices
some are like blocked afaik
Refresh is just getting things faster is all
yeah i have mullvad
I use Proton VPN personally, cuz I use their entire suite of products
It's quite nice
Yeah which is silly
Esp with no endgame content
i need to buy op to refresh
I don't disagree
But I like getting things faster
no i still think she's terrible
Thats fair
but im not one to let bias get in the way of fair testing
The only reason I'm pulling Yvonne is because I pulled Gilberta and I've got sunk cost fallacy at play here

gilb going in (nearly) every other comp
Nah
im at p4 gilberta but i think it'll be enough and she's probably going to fit other comps
Its not even forcing
so i dont really care for yvonne team
If anything ur forcing urself to pull Yvonne
Yeah
To get the 'ideal' Gilb comp
Yeah
gilb isnt support for any element it's support for certain play patterns
So why gimp urself with Yvonne
hope she works with zhuang fangyi 
Unless u like her
Arts Burst DPS yes, surely Rossi is exactly that
if you are burst, good
gilb is a support for any dps with specific short burst windows
and applies vuln stacks while at it
skipping yvonne for zhuang fangyi, but if tangtang is a strong endmin/da pan replacement for phys teams, i might go for her too
Rossi is nature?
Maybe
according to possibly fake leaks, maybe
nature
Heat vanguard agenda found dead in a ditch so far
lightning? you guessed it
Rossi is physical or heat
also nature
Miss me with that nature
i love how one person will post a 'leak' and then all critical thinking skills vanish
I pray you're right, but Tangtang screams phys
So hopefully heat vanguard
its very likely all fake leaks tbh
It's a 50/50. Either they're right or they're wrong.
tangtang being a pistol user is probably the only thing that is almost 100% true
never forget tangtang has been 'leaked' to be:
fire
physical
ice
nature
electric
We don't have any basis to assume either far as I'm aware.
I actually close to it as well
Oh im not leaking
Tangtang uses pistols and her design just screams phys tho
Rossi I was hoping would be heat vanguard so I still hope the current "guess" is wrong
Man I don't need more strikers
Heat is very unlikely for the solo reason we just got Surtr
I need more premium units for the teams I have
Only reason I see it happening is Wulf synergy but no dev cared about that before
how would a vanguard conflict
it'll only help
Only if shes a subdps
if rossi was a support for laeva teams all the rossi 😭 fans would get pissed off probably
True
I personally think shes physical
because i intend on skipping her
Physical lacks a proper dps, electric does and nature does
Why add a 2nd fire dps
Literally no one is guessing she's heat striker
Speak for urself
It was heat vanguard and now nature dps
guys i have a question and theorie regarding Zhuang fangyi and what if the same happened to the dragon god yan like sui split himself into 12 shards ?
Seen it plenty here
it means i can pull for my wife shu in the future 
like 12 fragments of Yan in cleansed form and Zhuang Fangyi is the a similar case like Shu ? i mean if Sui managed to split himself why shouldnt Yan do the same thou ?
@drifting quest He’s pulling for you. 
is sundered prince or exemplar better on da pan? (when controlled)
sundered has the crit and more str, while exemplar has the phys% and more atk%
but already a lot of phys% from aethertech so idk
Wrong sibling
Shuo is Chongyue
why I never see Snowshine being used on LR team yet? she seems to be very useful for cryo infliction, and you can do your AA uninterrupted (no dodge), as such reach finisher faster. her battle skill give sp back too. you can literally do LR Combo skill spam with her.
only realized this because I'm raising my Dijang worker for nexus
by spamming Alluviums
it's seems consistent and the sp back actually alot. i think you can fit Xaihi too.
LR, Snowshine, Xaihi, filler
Snowshine can inflict like 2 cryo infliction in short amount of time btw
From tc perspective?
Sp inefficient
Gameplay inefficient
No buffs
Its also just completely unnecessary to gimp yourself so much for faster cryo infliction, when properly learning to play LR with Xaihi stacks fast enough
That team hits like a noodle
Also why Ember

i mean... we also have Laevatain ult spam build.
i think this can be equal to that since LR Combo does hurt alot, also the CD is low
the SP seems plenty when i tried it
Try the difference yourself
Youll see how big the damage falloff is
And last time I checked you didnt run ult Laev unless fullfilling specific conditions
I see... 
Ultspam laev is preference content team etc
ok, but I'm too poor now... maybe next patch
As to value
Poor for what
Building LR team?
Ur chars are lvl 48
no resource

yes 
Thats nothing
no wait
You have plenty of resources
it's 41 actually
Use LR Xaihi Perlica Ardelia
i have no Sanity
yeah... that is my main team
Good, then dont bother with Snowshine, Ember Fluorite
oh... wait
that is not my main team. I'm grinding their level on alluviums 
for dijang
the mood boost on nexus
yeah but you need to level them to unlock the dijang mood buff skill
I cant read
Anyway
Use the team I mentioned as ur main LR thing
Can swap Ardelia for Gilberta depending
Akekuri works also
alrighty, no need for engraved tickets for me anymore
got perfects for all the current usable 6* weapons
now i just need to pull for the actual weapons i don't have yet
corrosion description said "gradually losing res against all elements"
is there any graph showing how much they lost per sec?
actually i also want to know does the effect instantly lost if the corrosion get consumed?

Whats the benefit of using Perlica instead of going with Ardelia+Gilb on LR team, the dmg u end up losing on LR’s CS is totally Compensated on the DMG u gain on her Ult, or am I missing something?
From my tests Ardelia+Gilb always gave me the best dmg output overall… Maybe depends on which armor u are using? If its combo skill % dmg for LR P3+ or Ult dmg% for LR P0-P2 idk…
i swear i saw something somewhere that said the numbers for that
i can't find it tho
my brain says up to 12% at max
for just straight corrosion
So for LR P0-P2 - Xaihi- Gilb - Ardelia would be the best team, and the Ult Dmg % Armor.
For LR P3+ - Xaihi - Perlica - Ardelia, with the Combo skill % dmg armor. Would be the best teams
While having better damage output, if you aren’t doing it in one cycle, Ardelia’s combo falls off in the second cycle due to anti-synergy because of Gilberta’s lift applying vulnerability stack
With Perlica/Gilberta you can just go straightaway without waiting from the second cycle
its one of the reasons i want a dot team
oh it is?? thanks
Yep, I’m taking one cycle in consideration only… But even lets say on Ballista & Axe, where I have to do more than one cycle, my Xaihi - Gilb - Ardelia is still better… My SoM on perlica is P3 though, maybe when I get P5 will be better idk
Hey does anyone happen to know if the attack that triggers a stagger also benefits from the stagger damage increase? I assumed yes but just making sure
Having that gilb ult on last phase of Ballista & Axe makes all the difference
Since I will have to ult without any stacks
My time is 1:35sec on them
As far as I know, extra damage from full stagger bonus is only applied after, but not applied to the attack which staggered (unless it’s a multi hit move like Arclight’s EBS/Combo. Like if you stagger from first hit, other 2 hits will get stagger damage bonus)
aw
Who can benefit from corrosion lvl 4 and stack fast enough to use that buff? Laev maybe?
once you have a level 4 corrosion going you can use level 1 corrosions to refresh the countdown but keep the level 4 effect
Is there a way to effectively use that in our favor, on LR or Laev team?
wait
can i do that with any forced reactions?
Like trigger level 4 electrification once and then just sustain it with perlica combo and never need to stack electrification manually again
can but 19cd combo and 5s electrification? i doubt that feasible
oh
only for corrosion afaik
does it not just use the 30 second duration from the 4 stack electrification?
it just uses perlica's duration?
okay nvm that sucks
Yeah you can do it with every reaction, exception being solidification (and combustion due to literally having no use for up-timing it anyway lol)
does corrosion effect last when the debuff mark gone? or no? like when it got consumed
gone
ok thx
Perlica’s electrification duration from her combo improves massively from P1 if I remember correctly
By like 75%? I’ll go re-read the passive from copies, one second
75%
for some reason i was thinking it would just reset the duration to the max duration of 4stack reaction but i guess only extending by her skill's effect makes more sense
*by 75%
I KEEP FORGETTING MY NUMBERS OKAY AAAAAAA

But yeah, going back to the topic, is there really a reason to up-time arts reactions? I feel like by just doing cycles per usual you can refresh it without micro-managing between them
I mean it is doable, but didn’t see anyone doing that
other than 4 stack corrosion which you maintain most teams do not care
solidification exists to be consumed or expire
combustion is just sneak in some damage, proc combos
ardelia forced corrosion is to be consumed via skill or marginal damage
perlica forced electrification is to amp damage for a bit
i suppose breach as a reaction has its uptime maintained
Probably not tbh
I compared buffing ults during casting LR combo and before casting combo. Before casting combo made the damage increase.
So I assume all multi-hits that hit a staggered enemy that got staggered by the first hit of the multi-hit, all count as non staggered damage
Huh, good to know
Hmm
That should be tested
Because first case is stats buffering
And it's operator side
While stagger is on enemy side
And I dunno if it's good target
50/50
Either it is or it's not like that
Why this stupid team works so well together? (I think with food buffs I can get like 1 minute with it lmao, especially if I actually crit on my Finishers)
why does a wheelchair comp do wheelchair comp things?
Why corrosion over electrification?
better effect
l1 can reset duration of l4
better units to do it with
I meaaan this isn’t stupid, ironically a good way to buff Catcher main-onfield
I’m unsure if the effect is better or worse
It starts with 7.2% debuff
Problem that I thought it isnt worth it compared of just using Ardelia+Chen instead of Shatter. But for some reason, Ardelia+Chen is slower on those clears D:
We need a mode that instantly gives ults upon entering. I wanna test out if theres a frame window where u can consume 4 cryo and apply corrosion

While electrification is always at the corrosion maximum
Stuck grinding slug meat for eternity for pots of ult gain
they're identical just at different brackets
technically elec lasts longer but
you're maintaining uptime
Yea im not bothering with food lmao
Too much effort
They’re not identical
Corrosion starts with small debuff
l4 should be 24% base for both
And becomes as strong as electrification only near its end
To the level of electro
future corrosions do not reset it to a lower amount
Ahh smart
it remains at the 24% base
Respectfully I am stealing that team comp when I am going to start building a second team, looks fun 
no
a level 1 corrosion will not overwrite a level 4 corrosion
when you apply the level 1 corrosion you retain the level 4 corrosion but use the level 1 corrosion timer
But does it add 30 more seconds
Why would I want to have level 1 timer
because the timer is the same?
I genuinely don’t get that part
only electrification increases its timer per level
or breach does too
but outside the current discussion
solidification/shatter, corrosion, combustion have fixed timers
vs most enemies in the game rn electrification and corrosion are going to be functionally the same because they have no resistance and hence the resistance zone, if corrosion is reducing res by 20, will be (100+20)/100=120%
which is no different from applying 20% dmg increase
however if the enemy has 20 resistance
you will go from (100-20)/100 = 80% to (100-20+20)/100 = 100%
which is actually a 25% increase in dmg dealt
Huh interesting
lets gooo (although take note Catcher aint good character, just fun one)
And what’s the time I have to wait for corrosion to be at its maximum debuff percent
uh for example
lv1 corrosion starts at 3.6
then increases by 0.84 every second
until it reaches the cap at 10s
then scale that up with your status lvl + intensity
10 seconds I see
And I do want to have my chara lvl 90 cause it further improves the corrosion character level scale
Tbh as the whole this team comp might work for other characters on-field too, like Lifeng, Endmin
wheelchair comp
worse than chen pog lifeng wheelchair but wheelchairs nonetheless
🤸🏻♀️
🦽 🏌🏻
That’s also true, but I appreciate there is variety instead of pure vulnerability team comps
the year is 2030
Excited to see if they’ll expand on vuln/ice hybrid
there are 10 physical reactions
True, although I specifically avoid using Edmin in my catcher teams even tho it makes it better
I love artificing bros
Maxed a hot work dmg skill in 5 attempts then got absolutely nothing on the second with 3
I LOVE RNG
I AM A MACHINE WHICH TURNS 60 WEEKLY ARTIFICING MATS INTO “19/20 left until guaranteed”
but corro give res down, which we don't have anything similar, while electro is same bracket with dmg taken, which we do have
I’m chilling even with this because I am already used to farming 2 entire months in Genshin for a single EM goblet
I don’t even need sanity for this
avywenna just gifted me stew meetings this is a sign
I’ve alr bought out and used the shop’s artificing catalysts weekly reset come back 
Endfield gear system is probably the best out of all the top tier gachas
Screw the crit hunting
yeah 1000 times better than artifact in GI and HSR
Compared to what I had to deal with while playing ZZZ (I only played ZZZ from gacha genre before this one), this feels like heaven
But garuanteed
Lvl 90 gear is coming
I don’t care still better
We don’t know yet
You can never make me hate it more than finding double crit and rolling all into flat defence
Never
hope with cool ass effect and not just dmg% up
I wouldn’t mind crit dmg and rate stuff in this game cos of how gear is rigid and substats are not randomised
Double crit Attack% and it’ll spawn a new line just for flat defense and everything goes in it
Fuck artifacts
not to mention low roll high roll
it was cancer
I just spent my last 360 sanity getting purple crystals bro I hate mat farming I should be spending on essence not this bs
Building a 2nd team is so ex…
well 2nd team is a luxury for now, no content yet
Phys is hella expensive to build completely so slight regret with me having to start with it
No reason everyone needs to be 90 or even have maxed skill anyways
I’m building Phys rn
That said it’s alr done so I have head start on others
Lvl80 clears all content with trim medal and even able to speed run Agony
There actually are reasons to make them 80/90 and even 90
Which is?
Yeah but max lvl = bigger numbers hehe
Your character gets 10% more atk between 80 to 90

There’s a special arts reaction mult that scales with lvl
I mean yea I know
It’s mostly that content doesn’t ask for it
Can build everyone to lvl80 and play more teams
Higher lvl actually makes your reactions strongest
Yeah That’s not genshin with 14 base atk growth from lvl 80 to 90
I mean the biggest part is the scaling for reactions
Just like Genshin
Crush damage
But yea honestly it doesn’t matter
Lvl80 is already enough to clear and super comfortably
OG Arknights also wasn’t the kind of game that really rewarded Vertical investment
Da man
Might as well spread it out
Only thing stopping me is Last rite not having a decent weapon
Ban da pan
With what resources bro I’m alr out
Of blue mats
He wears no pants
Da Pants
its does for earliest stage
You save 80% of all resources if you leave everyone at lvl80 lvl6 skill
More than 80 actually
Like 90%
Can’t afford to do that for phys. Everyone needs dmg and some need masteries
You don’t need m3 crush
It’s not mastering
Crush m3 doesn’t exist
Crush is a fixed multiplier
Ban da pan
It goes from 1.15 to 1.2 from 9 to 12
Goes from lift to lifted
Separate from other mults
But yea Vertical investment doesnt do that much
You already clear everything super fast so it just makes it so you interact less with game mechanics and its not like there’s that much either
Most efficient right now is just getting 1 team that can clear stuff and then getting horizontal investment for base income tbh lmao
But ye i might consider building a 3rd team if I draw Yvonne
At least Ive a weapon for her unlike Lastrite
who gave money to the snails?🤔
They have their own income they don't need anyone to give them money
is this right as the maximum possible intellect for p0 laeva and p0 weapon?
696 is max yeah
nice!



chengpt is this true?
im chatgpt. it's true since its on the internet

Had a buddy send me that but it was logan paul instead of musk, so i wouldnt trust that shit. Legit was copy pasted word for word.
no one does
how much INT do we need for Xaihi?
as much as you can manage without losing other thigns you need
wtf so high 
you cant get to that, you'll cap out at 600-800 right now
wait it's 400 no? where do you get 1200?
(36%-24%) / 0.03% = 400
Next limited 6start arts unit wep banner will cap it for sure 
Just need max dupe.
apparently base amp and int scale int is diff buff
you can increase by 36% not by 12%
bad wording by EN
it's in a list of issues I have to send off to customer support
let me actually do this now
ok thx for the info
added to game feedback
time to make a CS ticket
ok cs tickets are going to ruin the formatting
🔥
Its just en wording the limit only applies to the int portion
Which caps it at 1200 int
Which is physically impossible to hit rn
It should become possible using starry if they introduce int main stat secondary percent gear pieces
But for it to be reachable in practice without using a dog shit weap we'd need like red gear or a set bonus for secondary stat/int
Now I can do Chen or flurorite
But I still don't know if flurorite weapon is correct one for my playstyle
How much int missing? Also this way it's not breaking when new content drops like dungeon crawl with upgrades for operators
You can get like 650 with deto and 990 with starry
With secondary stat +%? Or without that?
Anyway it's better to have cap than unlimited for new content not breaking
Hm...
Worth every penny if you don't have one
most people probably wouldnt be able to tell from the icon alone

How do you know what's available in the following week
Datamines
Oh!
Yeah the dogshit one
ff is the one thats embers sig but even worse right
doesnt even look good unlike ember sig
It's the fat thermite
Thermites chud brother
My snow holds it. Two uselesses together ♥️
Actually she might be in my nexus she isn't entirely useless
I don't remember
anyone know what gilb wants to run on a yvonne team with stanza
i know she wants ult charge at least, so do i run xiranite set?
oh ok, why did you say sig tho 
I thought u meant someone already had stanza
You want +71.5 ult charge
So what to run on Gilb
Ex gloves is 26.7 and ex ult kit is 32
no set bonus for xaihi? is it just int maxing.
