so uh, only estella can trigger it lmao
otherwise it's just tt herself
ig snowshine can too
hopefully bp has a better condition
what are we trying to trigger
tt sig
which is?>
using healer or defensive character in this game kinda weird
it seems to be applying cryo app with skill
maybe because the dodge is quite easy
which somehow means in typical comps tt is the only one that can trigger it
A gun that can apply cryo infliction?
yeah that's tt
not the gun itself
that's the trigger condition for gun
for a cryo dmg up
it's for tt only anyway
so prob doesn't matter too much
I expect her skills to do most of the dmg anyway
So tangtang can be a dps with her sig gun?
bp gun already give dps vibe
Im hella ready to swap out yvonne for you chief
yeah her sig is just pure self dps
it's possible it has a second trigger/passive that buffs team ig
but that doesn't seem very likely
well surely she does good dmg
buffs both nature and cryo dmg
oh so theres five weapons redeemable instead of just the two
tf does tangtang even deal nature damage
ok i was just wondering if its already been posted here and there it is
Read again, its buff only cryo dmg
yeah ok so shes an ult dps alright 
maybe chen ult build is back on the table with 6* aspirant 
oh glorious memory seems for tangtang
wait what
pysical lr 
rossi rather
huh?
do we have info on sig?
if only it was atk% and not fricken Cryo dmg% on the guns
mf youre confusing me now 
Then fluorite could use em
could also be good for chen
oh true
not yet afaik
the cryo% sucks for nature users
We have a similiar sword like this, its aspirant and it is bad
ig realistically you still only use it for cryo
or rather the one nature user:
Read above, its cryo dmg L
they do seem to like tying nature and cryo together a lot
She's designed around her skills buffing her Ult's potential dmg so the BP sword being that makes sense
yeah that's her substat line, only cryo%, which means useless for nature
tbf this sword also has ~+80 base atk compared to aspirant, and the skill scalings will be higher since its a 6* so it gets [L] instead of [M]
there is a world
lemme go look at other weapons and see if i can pull up the numbers since they share the same stats
its basically a rapid alternative
Her BS applies a debuff, her talent causes that debuff to increase heat dmg taken, her 2nd talent adds damage instances to each crit against mobs with the Debuff, her combo increases CR and CD, her ult has naturally increased CD 
Aspirant is basically chen sig, but it is far below sundering on performance
does rossi always skill soon before she ults?
aspirant is partly physical
worried that it might mess up rotations
since when was aspirant chen's sig and not rapid ascent
aspirant feels like a 5* version of her sig, not the other way around
Duration per stack is likely 20-30s tbh. With stacks limited at 2-3
aspirant is 5*
its def tailored towards her but that doesn't make it her sig
hopefully, certain duration worrying me

agi scaling tt is bad news unless we get agi xiranite
dont mind me im just posting this for reference
Also ngl. Glorious Memory looks amazing
not a single xira piece has agi
ok so no other weapon has agi/crit/twilight essence
where can one farm this i wonder
shouldve been atk boost 
Thats what I'm saying about Home Longing
origin lodespring or wuling
uh
no weapon has that either
Rossi really wants crit so I welcome the free 19.5% CR
surely this is just to make the presentation neat.... right?
rapid is the only one i know that had the same stats as glorious
no way they exclude xira like that
If you're building her for damage use agi?
If you're building her for support just dump agi?
dif main stat but yeah
main/crit/twilight
but I would prefer support set that has agi 
Glorious Memory
+156 Agi
+19.5% CR
+16% (28%) Atk
+50% dmg% on Ult after applying Vuln (estimate)
+50% is too weak for an estimation no?

Its per stack btw
where'd you get those numbers from
is dat estimation?
Rapid ascent only good because its a 6*, meanwhile aspirant is basically built with chen in mind kit wise and design wise
ye based off of aspiran'ts 33.6%, 5* → 6* for stats like that are usually pretty sizeable so im guessing itll be around 50%
ig we dont know how many times you can stack it?
do you think the showcase uses sig or BP weapon?
"Effects of the same name can stack up to a limit. Duration of Each stack is counted seperately."
sig ofc
welp, w8 for real number then
Sig
yeah misspoke, it's sig for sure
epic edited moment
the atk% on glorious skill is probably gonna be 19.6%

so at least two, one ult per two rotations
i mean a free 19.6% atk is pretty nutty
Home Longing
+156 Agi
+43.3% Cryo Dmg
+11.2% (19.6%) Atk
+16% (28%) Cryo/Nature damage (again, estimation)
free 19.6% atk and 19.5% CR is nice
unless second line on tt sig is ult gen (and she needs it), I think bp is the much smarter option
p5 bp should be similar dmg to sig
while saving you arsenal tickets
no brainer
looks like tangtang bp gun is personal damage only?
what other supportive handgun do we have
none 
Yeah its a personal Cryo dmg% buff. Whats cool though is her ult ending does BS dmg 
clannibal i guess
The spouts spawned from her ult uses BS dmg
I doubt it, the bp performance maybe around laeva sig vs bp
clannibal is not fucking real
my guess for glorious skill is 2 stacks of around 50% based off of aspirant
well technically clannibal
never mention it again
but unusable for tt cryo team
clanniballs
then there's yvonne where p5 is close to sig
oh clannibal needs to consume reaction
and even then tt dmg isn't gonna be main dps lvl, so not worth tickets anyway
i guess OBJ for ult gain??

ulti bot
if xira doesn't get agi, might as well
we'll see how significant her personal damage is
Cryo wulf
she's so much better than wulf just by virtue of having real util
wulf literally just applies heat and combust
wait.... it.. it's possible to make clannibal work
Which is his util
Thats what he's used for.
Its not about main dps lvl tbh, tangtang looks like a very flexible char so investing into her sig could be worth it
in tt gilb rotation, if you gilb + tt ult into yvonne ult, then do the dive before final strike, you technically get the dmg taken for yvonne ult final strike

if obj ends up being bis again that would be hilarious
we have half of a weapon numbers, not even the operator numbers
HG is edging us
Tomorrow is 1.1 update right?
24 hours yeah
obj is even agi, they planned this
Maint is in what? 18 hours?
no?
huh?
1d 18h

so like 36h from now ish is when servers open
wait am i tripping wtf

i literally just typed it
wait no, 48h
y'all funny
I need sleep 
I need tangtang
Glorious Memory though does look really good. I'd probably get it asap just to slap on chen to swing it around until Rossi comes lol
watch the numbers end up being garbage
Its a BP weapon so I'm not getting my hopes up that high
i mean it's a bp wep so i'm not holding high hopes
Chen got no business with crit tbh
it should still be decent though
Its just for the looks 
damage per screenshot
It looks really good
main dps chen icant
Its crit rate, not crit damage so wont help for the screenshot
makes it easier to hit

but chen solo is cool
my guy knows ball
ah fuck wait the BP weapon doesnt necessarily have the same essence as the sig weapon
yeah ofc not, that would be too easy
bp and sigs usually have diff triggers as well
which means diff third line already
lodespring and wuling are currently the only sources
holy chat scroll
my bad
So I was joking about TT's bp will be fluorite's bis? Look like it's not a joke after all
ok ive spent like 30 minutes digging through every single weapon skill, here's my guesses for their finalized stats
Glorious Memory (Rossi's BP Weapon)
Agility Boost [L] (R9)
Agility +156
Critical Rate Boost [L] (R9)
Critical Rate +19.5%
Twilight: Lingering Glow (R4/R9)
Attack +11.2% (+19.6%)
+38.4%/25.6% (+67.2%/44.8%) dmg% on Ult for 30s after applying Vulnerable, stacks up to 2/3 times (SPECULATION)
Home Longing (Tangtang's BP Weapon)
Agility Boost [L] (R9)
Agility +156
Cryo DMG Boost [L] (R9)
Cryo Dmg +43.3%
Suppression: Olden Moon (R4/R9)
Attack +11.2% (+19.6%)
+19.2%/22.4% (+33.6%/39.2%) Cryo/Nature damage for 15s after Combo Skill (SPECULATION)
its fluorite weap ironically
there's currently no +atk% on twilight, so i used +crit rate% at a 1:1.4 scale as reference instead, with a 1:1.393 from twilight sub-stat to second stat scaling
as for the dmg%, using aspirant's total buff of 57.6% (100.8%) at R4 (R9) using 3 stacks, i scaled it up by 33.33% to get +76.8% (134.4%) dmg% at 2 or 3 stacks, honestly not sure how many they'll require but if chen requires 3 then its not improbably rossi requires 3 too
the actual % values themselves were common numbers used, and they line up really nicely with 33.33% increase from a 5* third stat to a 6* third stat
suppression has existing atk% numbers so i just used those, though given their similarity to what i calculated for twilight, there's a non-zero chance that both are +11.2% (+19.6%)
at most it decent stat stick
i lowkey forgot where i got +16% (+28%) cry/nature from so lemme go double check
ok i got +16% and +28% from cohesive traction, and 15s being a common buff duration for cryo/heat/nature/electric damage buffs, with the exception being cohesive traction, though thats because its intended to be stacked
if the numbers are too low, it could be +19.2% (+33.6%) instead
biggest problem with home longing is that it's so ugly
cant argue
flag gun lookin ass weapon
actually using JET as a comparison its definitely at least +19.2% (+33.6%)
if you use Artzy instead, it would be +22.4% (+39.2%) but whether or not they use a sig's scaling for a bp weapon is dubious
do we have any info on rossi and tangtang's sigs stat?
we have datamines but they're stc
rossi's is ||agi/cr/fracture|| and tt's is ||agi/atk/detonate||
and rossi's is just agi artzy lmao
yeah agi khrav and agi artzy
yeah lmao
were they confirmed?
no
have to wait until update drops
but they do line up/make sense
i would've posted them like
a week ago
but i was scared of breaking server rules
luckily i haven't farmed any of those
tt sig line 1 and 3 basically confirmed at this point (ig line 1 main attribute is possible)
i've farmed rossi's but if it changes i'll just farm another one
doesn't really matter
just line 2 that might be wrong
yeah, arts burst n crit buff
tho its gonna be funny if they truly make both 1 to 1 into artzy n khrav

Tryna think if I wanna just go for TangTangs BP weapon and forget the sig
Fluorite is robbed 
now her only hope is sig…
Surely sub dps doesn’t need a sig
Shouldn’t be more than 30% and that’s being generous xd
i don't expect it to be more than like 20%
Ye
If we take 20% damage share and say the BP weapon is 85% of sig
That means you will deal 97% team damage if you skip TangTangs Sig
Probably one of the worst use of arsenal tickets in the game by rolling for sub dps sig
Or even if it’s 80% it’s a whopping 4% damage 
No?

Replacing a Xaihi skill hurts but is doable I guess
prob depends on sp economy
if tang2 number can hit 100k+, shes serviceable
Dropping Perlica is prob doable
TangTang skill SP refund can go into Ardelias skill since she doesn’t care about Ult
if sp eco matter ardel gonna go but losing her debuff hurts
do we have information of tang2 sig?
Nope but I’m just going by assumption and saying it’s not Stanza
And just some dps weapon
tang2 is dps? i thought she gonna be support 
Even if BP weapon ends up being 80% damage only it’ll only be a ~4% team wide dps loss to not roll her sig
Sub dps
subdps support hybrid thingy
the important part is whether tt sig is going to have ny util
So if ur f2p or budget and unbiased towards TT as a character, if her sig is just damage, you should just go for her BP weapon
well, her bp kinda ok too lol
In the stream it did show up as just a cryo buff but we will see

cryo buff for whole team 🔥
nah, dats too copium
cryo+nature passive
cryo damage stat
why
fluorite cope
only a couple more days
2 more days until numbers
Fk me bro
I just built rapid ascent properly too
That said hmm
Same essence as RA
Wait no its not
Agi not Main
Fk
Yeah I’m rolling TT sig no way Im wasting on that bp wp
Guess I'm skipping tangtang gun
It’s not that good though
It’s worse than Rapid
Idk need numbers
Which is why I'm skipping 
(allegedly)
chen new weapon just dropped
Still gonna prefarm the essence though no reason not to
need testing vs our glorified box cutter 
Unironically since it has better agi boost and also boosts ult off combo skill and not battle skill
It’s probably gonna be a similar situation between Yvonne BP and Wedge
I imagine it’ll be pretty good due to access to the bp dupes
Can get at least R6
maybe
Instead of just R4
but box cutter also easy to get
True
at same pot i think the new wep will be better
Might be better for the paid bp spenders is the thing
and we're getting 2 more bp pot boxes with the new bp presumably so
Oh so they finally show what the bp weapon will do, anything about any of the 2 signatures?
Entire depends on if we can use the old pot dupers on it tbh
You can
I have the 2 from current bp
It’s literally in the description
It’ll be usable for all future BP weapons
What if Obj ends up being optimal for TT
Instead of the BP

Every new version is going to be so painful, having no number until the version actually arrives.
I'm going to have this box for months 
From the doomposting cycles I’ve seen in every gacha before release I’m not sure which is better
i'm going to hoard all the bp boxes probs
But seriously though bp Rossi wp looks incredible for budget teams
If the mult is good
It’ll carry
good for rossi and also for chen it's kinda hype
I mean we have seen so much doomposting for Gilberta cus Ardelia is better 
And then all the Gilberta skippers regretting now
i'm hoping her sig is fucked up and evil though and it just makes her deal one rosillion dmg
Literally for any sword vuln applicator that has ult dps
Oh yeah, hoyoverse people have it worse. Seeing your new character being strong, only for them to nerf the character into oblivion every beta cycle.
That said how long is the ult boost timer you think
every character getting instantly powercrept the next major patch
the hoyo special
They getting powercreep before they release the character
Not having leaks is not a bad thing honestly
You won’t get any false expectations
vuln apply is ezpz though so maybe not super long
Oh, didn't knew off-rate 6* weapons rotate
Wedge every single banner
they really want you to have wedge
Yvonne sig pullers gonna see P5 wedge before half anniv
I'm not complaining

I already got Wedge P3 from losing many 25/75
Actually P2, I have the box and debating whenever to claim another copy or JET
Oh yea I don’t even need to use BP for TT if Wedge is good enough
Need to see the difference
actually the 25/75 is brutal they have got to do something about it
make it 50/50 at LEAST
lol
Statistically it’s not brutal
what they're going to do about it is count their money
I alr have a p2 wedge 
statistically i've gotten 4 former fineries so fuck you
Is more of a feels really shitty thing
Unironically helpful though since I have to build wedge on Yvonne if I want to use TT
You get way more 6 stars than normal
All the extra 6 stars would not be there if they just gave you normal rates and a 50/50
and yes right now is already considered normal rates
So instead of 4 former fineries you’d have got zero and no extra sigs

It’s like giving someone extra candy and they want the bag
well, 2 more for max pot 
i should buy out hg and make them change the weapon rates to 75/25
You can even make it 100% by just changing the 6 star weapon drop rate change from 4% to 1%

that's statistics baby
They probably use something like genshin or similar as a base and then they make it slightly better, but not that much because of corp wants money.
I just want more 6* chara so I can pull more arsenal atp lmao
Not even for the chara anymore
The wp banner is everything
They will probably bait Fluorite mains into pulling for Tangtang signature
And yeah gonna skip Rossi wp banner just get bp wp atp not sure there’s anything that can make it worth it to me
I would do that
Need TT banner too much
The main problem with Arknights even OG at the start since forever was that HG is allergic to making money
For some reason whenever they decide to do stuff it makes you need to do math in your head but end of the day you know it was generous but only after you played for 2 years and somehow got every single SSR f2p and you don’t know how cus you never mathed
But yea it’s a very weird thing they do where it’s supposed to be good but it feels bad but overall the result is good but they need to be even more generous than intended cus people feel bad
I think I got all my skins f2p as well in OG AK

now they milk u w skins and bgs
Problem with OG arknights is that it's great is you want to have a huge roster of character, but the moment you try to get a character in specific, specially limited operator you end up in the situation that you are force for make 300 pulls.
Happen to me with TexasAlter, Hoshiguma Alter.
And because I didn't have 300 for Lappland alter I didn't got her
Just be patient and you’ll somehow end up with them anyways 
probably in 1 - 1.5 years
4 years, happened with ange 
I somehow got every single old limited trying to chase someone new
So i just stopped caring and just played the game
I haven't got Angelina yet
I don't even know if it's possible after they made those changes in the banner
My worst decision was rolling for Chen Alter back in the day 
It changed my entire game dynamic
I have enough pull to 300 most of the limited banner tbh
I used to play Silverash and Thorns and Surtr and it was great
After Chen Alter came it became more of just slapping her somewhere to decimate everything
Surtr was also pretty broken before chalter though
she did well
now her helidrop fares "worse" than current ops that has a rotation simialr to her rdp time
this is very true and theyve kept the same mindset of "every character is good so it doesn't matter who you get, you get a lot of 6* but its hard to guarantee any specific one" and carried it over to endfield
but suddenly now its a shit gacha system

I hope they introduce more 4-5 stars
It's shitty if you are unlucky basically.
yeah its a terrible experience for the bottom 0.1%
now i use chelter as rng ammo lmao
I always plan on being unlucky so it’s a pretty neat system for me
Worst case scenario isn’t that bad
but the thing is the gacha is designed for consistency
in both OG AK and Endfield
i really dont see why theres so much discourse over the gacha system
It’s unnecessarily complicated honestly
But I’m used to stuff being like that
All that matters to me is that I can get the characters I want
OG AK isn’t exactly what you call a mainstream gacha
Tower defense lmao
outside CN
see i'd understand that if half of the people complaining about EF's gacha WEREN'T ARKNIGHTS PLAYERS

pmo
OG AK gacha is far better than endfield, this one is undebatable tbh
ive already debated you on this actually, idk what you mean undebatable
western people have more prejudice against 2d based gachas so it didnt take off as well as genshin did
Cost of production is way different you can’t compare it
and my stance remains that EF has a better system for its gameplay structure
i think IS just didn't hit the same with western tbh
Oh you are the dude that said arknights and endfield basically got the same pull income right?
The only lines of comparison would be to Genshin/Wuwa imo, maybe ZZZ
Comparing to a 2d gacha with 10% of the production cost would be way off
yes and i have the math to back it up

wcyd
Endfield's rates are a lot lower though
not by much once you factor in pity
no more like 2d/3d is a qualitycheck
OG AK is 1 6* every 34.4 pulls on average
EF is 1 6* every 54.6 pulls on average
not a huge gap
okay 34 and 54 are very different numbers
Well, i forgot in arknights you actually got two free char at 300 pulls, compared to endfield 1 char at 120 pulls
2d? cashgrab, why cant the company afford better models
3d? wow AAA companies made that. very efforted
that's actually a pretty big gap
I must say Endfield is the only one that actually feels good playing on my phone compared to Genshin/Wuwa
smaller gap than if you compared 0.8% and 2% (1 in 50 vs 1 in 125)
Also Arknights OG can only be played on phone or emulator, which already hurts how many people would be willing to try the game.
also not to mention that we have 1/3 the squad size (4 vs 12)
Wuwa was okay ish slightly worse and then it started turning my phone into a nuclear reactor
especially since the western audience are more fond of 3d games already so forcing them to play 2d games, especially a mobile game like arknights, wouldnt be a good rep to them
Until my phone starts burning my fingers
Yea pls mention the pull income too
I will not forgive Yostar for not giving us a Global PC launcher
Wuwa straight up killed my old phone
But to be very fair it runs well on a iPhone 13 Pro Max
It doesn’t turn on anymore
but CN has a 17 month start before genshin so CN has a foothold for arknights
Endfield runs very well on my IPhone 16 pro max
ok
Desmos
the problem is not the gacha but the actual income of the gacha economy
OG AK is 70-80 pulls per month f2p
EF is 80 pulls per month, lowball, f2p
the income just doesn't exist lol
i aint gonna experience FGO economy in 2026
Heard EF is between 65-70 per new patch but can’t rmb from where
CN TC estimates it at 90-100
other sources say 70-90
im lowballing and saying 50
Norway
From people pulling numbers out they’re as
OG AK
70-80 pulls per month
???
All of the above numbers are inaccurate
like people dont understand the numbers im using are already a 20-30% lowball, if not more
i can go dig that up too if you want, i've done calculations for both games
Ain’t sunna there’s more than 80 in a new patch
Trying to estimate pull income in 1.1 serves nothing except agenda posting and any form of trying to justify it is stupid
monthly on a 28 day rotation we only get like 28ish
the only issue i have with the current gacha system is an imbalance between the operator pulls and weapon pulls
its technically anywhere from 1.25:1 to 1.49:1 while anything LESS than 1.5:1 is enough to spark a weapon everytime you spark an operator, HOWEVER, once you add on purchasing weekly/daily shop weapons, then the scales tilt and you'll eventually run low on arsenal tickets, HOWEVER HOWEVER, you can always use a second BiS or non-sig that could even be first BiS
We can only be sure once the actual patch ends
Yep
ok thats just not true..
5 pulls per week = 20 pulls
one from calendar = 1 pull
five from green certs = 5 pulls
this is assuming no events
where do you get triple that 

Well yeah that’s where the most $ comes from. People maxing wp pots
Way easier to max chara in this game than their sigs
let me go dig up the sheet, give me one second, i haven't opened it in a while
there endfield bookkeeping iirc
tbf pots in this game also do piss all compared to other gachas so if anything, HG is losing money by doing so
But yea all the people spamming those 60 pulls income for 1.1 on Reddit are all gacha tourists trying to justify their leave later when the next hot gacha drops
almost a whole patch in we're still arguing about this
yeah sure. its just mindboggling when the pull planner youtuber doesnt project to get >140 pulls in 2 months for salter banner
arknights also has recruit and gold certs for buying standards
Idk it kinda sucks that endfield is basically all limiteds
he has like 90 pulls prior to yellow cert pulls
WP pots though? I feel those barely matter at all in other gachas either
Character dupes do so much damage in every gacha except this
Honestly I’m good with that
they also hardly matter in here, albeit theyre usually actually more impactful than equivalent weapon pots
I mean me too but I’m not a whale
for now
I’d like p0 in most gacha to be around 85% strength of max pot at most
seele e1 is +18% cr against 85%< hp enemies
seele e2 makes her speed buff from skill stackable to two times
If some whale wants p5 to be stupid I’d say let them have it
no exploration yet
I think the only pot that genuinely I consider game changing is Lifeng p1 and that’s a standard
You get 1 6* with 34 pulls in arknights, and it can be anyone you dont have since the standard pool is keep updated... Meanwhile we need 54 pulls and stuck with 5 standard char in endfield
@gritty olive here's the projected "70-80" pulls btw, its actually closer to >80 but i lowballed because
- they count rerun OP income
- they dont count rerun gold/gold cert income
so this considers rebates and assumes all OPS is used for pulls
considers rebates, assumes OP is used, assumes first-time clear of rerun events
so its a highball
if you exclude OP and such its probably closer to 50-60 pulls per month
wouldve liked for it to not include OP usage but alr
Tbf it’s launch patch we don’t have a limited pool to update in yet
Honestly what else you gonna use OP for after you set aside the initial OP for BP
They’re obviously meant to be pulls
then just subtract 10-20 pulls per month

i meant arknights, not arknighrs endfield

Is critical rate useful for chen?
No
I doubt they will add more standard char regularly tbh
Maybe anniversary
Not regular of course
Yeah anniv
I just hope they update it at all
i feel like the standard there for a freebies wherever they make a frkn mistake
Not like Jenshin

Yikes
So just ignore that crit stat from new bp weap for chen?
the thing with this type of system is if we add every new unit to the offbanner pool, by 7 banners there would be 75% limiteds per 6*
Surtr being the first limited unit to enter standard banner would be something I can see
its just not economical per se
It’s not bad not incredible
Just… fine
given the much smaller team size of 4 compared to 12, i think it makes total sense that instead of being able to buy operators with our pull rebate currency, we're able to buy weapons instead
weapons are more flexible, after all
"hey we make mistake here 10 pull standard banner" 
I'm paranoid they'll add things you can buy with OP
I’ll take it just for the arsenals hehe
So sundering still better for chen right?
right but thats just speculation
all im trying to say is EF's income is comparable to, if not better than AK's income, even though we need 300% fewer units and spark is 60% lower, with only a 58.7% increase to 6* rates after pity to compensate
Maybe not depending since getting high pot BP wp is not that hard
They already said they currently have no plans for skins
And honestly if you enjoy the game that much that by anniversary or whatever they release a skin you like, dropping 10 bucks for it also isn’t a big deal
Are they going to add more standard weapons though or is it also just going to be the launch weapons forever?
If we only get limited weapon releases, it's gonna suck too
ah thanks missed that
again, we can only wait and see, what i'm arguing for is the GACHA SYSTEM and PULL INCOME, not how they plan on carrying out their banners and such
For me with no gacha acc so sundering steel for mc and chen using new bp wp?
their standard weapon not really disappointing tbh
Can you straight up buy weapons in shop or no
Possible. The new bp good for ult after all
Without gacha
also yeah i dont have a single limited weapon on my entire team
they'll probably get powercrept eventually though, except thermite
if i interpret no gacha as "welfare only" then no
but its kinda semantics atp
I mean who knows, it’s self imposed
i meant compared to sig ofcourse, but overall its quite well thought
Most of the offrate wp are decently long living tbh
well you can say that about any game, no point in fearmongering abt future patch powercreep content when we're just discussing the "now"
Wedge JET Valient Therm Exemplar will all see some use if no sig
You’ll be getting dupes for standard weapons overtime
I mean it won’t replace sigs but having strong weapons whereby you can skip sigs is the entire point
also we dont know how long battle pass weapons will be available in future crates, or if they'll update retroactively
And honestly the catalyst 6* all quite solid
imagine if we can stock up 6 of them and instantly get a p5 bp weapon to skip the sig
I think you can? The dupe boxes anyway
The dupe boxes straight up allow you to do that
Im trying but still need time to reach 2480
its possible given the new bp crates will have all 5 bp weapons so far (umbral torch, navigator, opus: etch figure, etc.)
if we ignore the gacha economy. Endfield probably provide good experience overall. Not a really overbearing enemy but still provide decent standard weapon for your character
1 more month
That weapon currently in the shop is so good for support Endmin
Yeah but the old crates are deadweight basically. My bigger concern is the bp pot boxes
can leon parry rhodagn aoe?
If those dupe
You cant bring squad size as argument i think, a lot of endfield player really want content that need 2 or more team lol
HG definitely tried to put game first, gacha second, but a lot of gacha players refuse to admit that their gacha game doesn't have to be ALL about the gacha
we're speaking objectively, what endfield players "want" is subjective
I wish Perlica fit the Endmin squad
true true
is that not the whole point?
Endmin Chen Perlica really makes me want to drop Perlica
She can with Rossi 

why would old crates be deadweight if they update retroactively? we have to see what happens when 1.1 comes first
bp pot boxes will 100% be able to be used on any bp weapon
Yeah squad size got no business in the gacha system
Perlica to proc Gil to proc Rossi to eat with endmin
uh.. yes it does?
So drop Chen
Yeah, it can be faster if i get much luck on refreshing credit store

The red boxes don’t update iirc
Chen can come some other time 
the weapon selectors or pot boxes? and how do you know that? we haven't had a bp update yet
Endmin Chen is my main squad
So better aiming for grand vision?
Physical Perlica when
wild wanderer gaming
That’s not the one I’m talking about I’m talking about the selector boxes
If Wedge is better than the BP for TT that would save me some time building another weapon for her
I saying they don’t update iirc
yes and i asked how do you know that for sure
Lemme check in game their description
its very vague
But the thing is their name is specifically the first battle pass
doesn't mention anything about future bp
So I don’t expect them to update
If your argument endfield system is comparable because its squad size is 1/3 compared to Arknights, you basically say it is 3 times easier to get a 6* unit in arknights lol
ok i see what you mean now
that makes sense
This alone updating alr makes the paid bp worth on top of all the other goodies
yeah it wouldn't make sense to have a separate name and icon for the box if they all retroactively updated to be the exact same
how am i saying that? could you not put words in my mouth? im saying AK's gacha is more lenient by 50-60% but at the same time each team can hold 300% as many operators
It’s too much copium to think they would retroactively go back to update all the previous selector boxes whenever new weapons drop
And then what happens when there’s more weapons like say 10 seasons later
With arsenal ticket too in bp very worth it
Do you expect to have an entire scroll session to find 1 weapon in the box
They might remove old out of date bp wp from new boxes tbh
Actually
I think the limit is 5
games like this never update selectors, that's why the upgrade box doesn't have selection, so it can easily be made to update future bp weps (I think, I don't have bp wep, so the upgrade box has no popup)
Yea probably just latest 2 BP
Cos all the selectors cap at 5 no
I don’t think there’s a selector ingame with more than 5 wp
Makes sense yeah
Then in the future
With limited reruns
Just add back their bp wp too
My copium is when they rerun they go into standard banner and just slide their weapon banner into the list of standard banner sigs
Lmao u wish indeed
the ones from the banners can have 6
Ooh
That means it might be last 2 bp worth of wp
im pretty sure the weapons are chosen fairly arbitrarily
Could fit 9 wp on that page tbh
Too much choice is proven to be a bad thing
True if not the new sig banners wouldn’t be so unbalanced
Fkin Therm and JET in one banner
If you can let people have less choices to guide them so they don’t need to read as much it comes across better
And WNN in the other lmao
is JET allat? i haven't looked at avywennas kit
if its on-par with thermite
sheesh
It’s basically the only thing making Avy usuable
gg bruh
jet is quite universal for a wep
prob usable on most future spear dps
if not pretty good on them
theres one that has 3 arts units iirc
JET has Main | Atk | Arts boost with easy condition
funny asf
Jet is just atk% and arts damage
Should work for any arts spear dps
oh damn
JET is just solid for any arts polearm
i thought it had at least something to do with electric dmg
Inb4 all future spear dps are physical
Long term usability

atk% is just really good as a stat
wait so does that mean every weapon made by Northmarch Support Hub is universal and goated as fuck?
Puts JET on Lifeng*
YES LMAO
dont worry in a year they will put +ATK% buffer on all teams
former finery = it used to be good, it's defective now
and the goat dmg% will return
dont they only have like 2 weps?
Yes attack is the one that’s less common right now but they know how good it is so they will print more and more attack buffers over time
and forgeborn?
wnn
Former Finery...
oh wait no
stain on their record
sundered prince

ah yeah, former "fine"ry
ok i was right with khraven and forgeborn nvm
that is pretty cracked though, just not as universal as Northmarch
too operator-specific 
shit company
endfield weapon manufacturer tier list when
mieszko bottom 1
which one wnn again?
shit int sword
me waiting for manufacturers to make good universal support weps that aren't sword or arts unit
will tangtang be BiS in last rite team? who would she replace
offbanner terror
tt was my hope, it's gone now
white nova?
literal banner pollutant
maybe mi fu wep in 1.2
Last Rite 
tbh its numbers look kinda good...
uhhhhhhh whats wrong
weapon with 0 users
its made by fort forgefane
🔥
witching could never

Witching only makes bangers and at worst an ‘it’s aight’
Bro they have only 1 5* and its stanza
STANZA
mieszko pretty solid too ngl...
my personal tier list might be Northmarch => Witching >> Mieszko
mieszko has 3 cope weapons and only 1 bis for a 5*
well
compared to other companies
erm
you do with what you have
dont worry
actually lemme add a second >
oh i have it
Can’t rmb which post it was
one sec
endfield industries will finally mog all of their competitors
after releasing back to back failures
with OBJ HEAVY BURDEN

Endfield makes 4* wp they simply can’t compete
Ok but tbf
Im curious if my team like this, what weapon should i buy when my arsenal ticket ready?
Endfield is supposed to be a construction company
Witching is the undisputed goat
Nothing but exclusives and/or goated wp
Except Obli but that’s still good
Even sundered is a fokin 56% atk boost at max
oblivion is more useful than sundered
it has 1 practical use case which is more than sundered
which sexy outfit has northmarch made? 
ok but im here to dispute that northmarch sweeps smh smh
I mean even if they had only thermite and det
and 4 other pieces of worthless trash
they would still be in #1
Northern March sweeps
Finery
Finchaser
Sure bud I believe u
so based and realpilled‼️
Nah it’s fine
ok explain witching hour creating a 6* gs just to powercreep it themselves 
Only slightly worse than Artzy at p5 tbh
I won't allow cautus slander
and then releasing a 6* au just to powercreep it themselves
WITH A 5*
at least at max dupe it can be slightly better than a sig
kinda slop company...
it's not that bad
well, sundering good on ember 
but getting 6 copies of that shit would be something to complain about
more than anything else
Ok but Sundered works with most things while Kraven and Forge are pretty limited
idk who's gonna make rossi's sig but they're gonna be the goat

Witching again 
from the looks of it, my bets are on RAYTHEAN
or maybe Fort
Lmao just realised we’re like company glazers irl and now I feel like worthless trash

"dont you dare attack my fictional multibillion dollar company"
a step up from usual

Bold of u to assume my employment status (you’re right)
||Cos I’m student||
Let’s go Umbrella Corp!!!!
im employed but its like a +10 on a scale of -100 to 100 and my activities of -50 outweigh that so its basically like im unemployed
L Corp only takes Ws!!!
idk what umbrella corp is 
Shinra is the best energy company
i dont know ball
wfh employed 
Resident evil main bad guy corp
I work for the govt
Makes all the monstrosities
Instantly gains the title of least morally upstanding individual here
i know like fuckall about RE but its always so funny when you root for the "bad guys"

anyways im gonna go back to rebuild my Help and Guides street cred in #help before i get shot
RE is a really unserious franchise

Biotech and drug law was made by the devil
Ezpz
Fuck immunology too

That’s not the part of it that’s my job

nah you're stacking vulnerability stacks on them, just one large push and they're crushed 
I’ll leave Uni at most in like 12k of debt and it doesn’t interest when I study and I have leeway of 6months until I get a job
i like how whenever the country of topic isn't the usa its "my country"
i love usa defaultism
playing gacha wont help debt 
nah, make the student breaching the law 1st before u crush it 
Playing the stock market will (not that it’s been great recently)
Bought an airline stock after it crashed though
Is it just me or is the new rossi bp looking p good for sundering steel replacement?
That was nice
Or maybe more like aspirant's replacement
Ascent replacement
optional weapon for endmin (?)
Might be better on Chen
Nah doesn’t benefit crush
At least compared to ascent
just dive into polymarket then do rug pull
Better on Chen than ascent and the other way round for endmin
It’s all good the airline stock is recovering
well, its ulti endmin turbo
TK god for best airline in the world
Ok but counterpoint, just buy the literal $1 pack
some people wont do dat
Speaking of which how many lvls of the new bp yall think we will get immediately
probably 60 too
you mean the first week missions ?
The perm missions mainly
Lv 19 + 10 for premie 
Reminder to buy the bp asap if you’re going to for that sweet 3% + 3%
Im more curious about how much extra rewards we'll get 
hello chat
AND DO NOT CLAIM B4 BUYING IT
I need to squeeze out every bit of value from it
i actually did the math for how much youd lose lol
its about 0.07 pulls

if you bought it at the end vs on day 1
specifically 38 oroberyls on average
Lmao really
yea
fomo 
i genuinely dont know LMAO
What’s the total available exp from this current bp btw
that's too much math
Like with all the daily exp counted
yea that's what i was thinkin
i tracked 201000 exp
could be wrong tho
probably is
but good enough estimate considering how few pulls you get from cyclic rewards
Fair nough
wait no its definitely like 230k+ mb
i forgot to add weeks 1-4
the later weeks give more exp anyways though
so less impactful
