#[Cinderella] New Unit Megathread
1 messages · Page 13 of 1
Adding new strong units gives new players who missed shit like Mod, SbS, Red Hood a chance to get good characters
Warframe drops a new frame every few months, yet octy is still the best support several years later
But like make niche characters that fill a slot that are actually good.
Powercreep is only bad if it occurs every banner
This
Like make Rumani good, but not broken
Power creep is gonna happen, it's just a matter of how fast it happens
This is literally Tove
Like this year we had the summer units, Eva, Ein, and like D
And SBS at the start of the year
Compared to how many total banners
How many of the units this year have been worth getting
And a shotgun team is still not good despite that.
Wasn't like half the banners mid?
It's literally one of the most used team in SR right now
Half of the banners feature mid or good in a niche units
Says who?
I've not seen it. Like...at all.
But none of the good characters shifted the meta like bunnies or schoolgirls did,
Enikk app
I wish Cindy was more focused on max HP.
And my personal experience doing SG team
Your personal experience is that shotgun is the most used in solo raid?
Did you interview yourself to confirm?
My personal exp that SG is good for SR
I would like to see su drop some cracked burst 1 units, since liter has been bis basically forever for pve and only d killer wife challenges her
Yeah if it's not Noir or Naga I'm not using a SG in Sr lol
you said not seen it at all
SG team is probably most versatile filler team you can build
they work on all ele
I said I've not seen it at all.
I get not liking it, but Tove is the definition of niche unit that are extremely good at her niche lol
yeah cause you checking your own team or something
you not gonna see it if you not use it
Or the top players on my specific solo raid, I never seen Tove.
Idk if it's instanced or based off server but Ive yet to see Tove.
Its region based
Maybe my region hates her then lmao
i see shotgun team all the time in NA
She is being used in all regions
Point is 50% of units = Niche or ass
The game isn't balanced but it's balanced in the wrong direction of most units being either useless or only good in a niche that will on occasion pop up
It's unfortunate because we could use more strong units
We've had Liter for burst 1 for so long, give us another
I think they are good at handling the powercreep, by making a specific unit shine in their own niche.
For example, Tove for SG or Elemental DPS like Ein and Quency
New players who missed shit like SBS, Red Hood, Mod, etc are going to have a rougher time finding good units to actually clear content with because shift up sucks at making things actually generally useful
So, broken unit like Cindy once in a while is fine
Yeah, let's have Liter until EOS
dkw rouge rh
Rouge is rising after Cindy came
Rouge is good CDR unit, but now somewhat become HP buffing niche with CDR with cindy
Not saying I want everything to be broken but it would be nice to have more than 3 non pilgrim/limited units a year that are actually worth pulling
Like dkw wasn't broken but she was worth getting
Noise/Rouge is a decent combo but I wouldnt say Rouge is better than Liter. And you're still missing another good burst 3 for that team unless you have 2B
Liter's just all around good for multiple teams, which, you know, would be nice to have with more than 1 unit.
Wdym, just Rouge-Cindy-S. Anis and the rest just fill with whatever
Can be Blanc or something else
Well, it's electric team
2B, Anis. Both limited.
only limited that survived was Summer Anis and Winter Ludmilla
For a max HP team, you do.
No
Which is a different niche entirely
Why hyperfocus on Max HP team anyway
In the meta sure, but that doesn't change that they were still worth getting at the time
I'm saying I want more units worth actually rolling for that aren't limited due to collab, seasonal events, or pilgrims
also yall talking about wanting more good units that isnt straight up dogshit , sure im with yall
Dkw isn't broken but she was worth at least getting a copy of
but shift up also needs to bump up resource gains
Literally all I want
skill mats
Like Ein, Quency, B. Soda, M. Priv etc?
or else im always dry
NVM Also want this
That's all I want
grave and cindy can go together right
Wait nvm I also want another Red Hood and a Red Hood skin. Then that's all I want.
If you want, wasting Grave's potent Pierce buff tho
I think the only benefit she gets is max ammo over using someone else, cuz she's more a pierce unit
ah though the attack dmg and burst gen is good enough
if we get more resource we can experiment with more Niche units
Grave works good with like Asuka or RH probably
unless you whale them
Still good if you want to force them together
You can run just about anything if you just smash it together hard enough lmao
Ye, Cindy won't suddenly turn into dogshit with Grave lol
I made it to chapter like...4 without realizing how burst works when I first started, so I never had a burst 3
That's what rerolling does to the brain though I guess
Wait how does campaign work then? Shes able to hit multiple enemies.
Wouldnt it be like she only hits 1 target with the 400 radius bullet and then splash AoE is only 50?
I remember people said I had king like luck cause I blew past the 160 wall before I ever hit it
Same, but thats because I used my own luck
||credit card||
With the power of money, all problems can be solved, who's got that meme with the one maid
Anyway, would Cindy and 2B work with Frima? I'm kinda tempted to try getting Frima's fav item
Something like Noise/Cindy/2B/Mast/Frima
that will work its just not good 
2b need/prefer volume
Doesn't 2b prefer noise?
Really? Damn, I've been running my 2b team wrong, I had noise as primary b1 and volume as secondary
I've had no issues with that lmao
if your noise and frima low limit break yeah
but with frima fav item she's probably gonna steal that
lb2 + sr15
at the end I decided to not fight against the "nerf" situation anymore. If they create game imbalance by leaving cinderella like this Ill just dont care until it affects me personally , then time to 👋
That is a good point
Nope, lol
She just hits so hard she 1-2 shot every rapture, 1 shot if crit iirc at 29% deficit
Big raptures fall to her AoE with proper rng (since her burst is rng targeting), small ones to her basic attacks during full bursts
Lugo
?
Nvm you wouldn't get it 
Probably not.
Oh ye that was lugos pfp 
Overall I think it also helped that I had what 78% elemental
Dw about it tbh
I wanna find a way to make a 2B Cinderella team work but without Rouge I feel like I'm just floundering. Very frustrating.
Oh ye i see it now, the projectile is so wide its just hitting some other enemy instead of the target im aiming at.
@elder pier
It barely ever hits 2 units
Only when they're like jumbled up VERY close together
Just her bullet width, but she cant pierce
Changed
Bro doomposting as much as kisenix
Damn, he got dedicated sticker
Erm, akshually that's called free speech
Cn player tell me that SU fixed the splash radius from 50 -> 400 yesterday is it true ?
No, projectile radius
I already showed you what the fixed
Increased projectile radius to deal with the issue of her shots missing
But her problem fundementally lies in how her weapon works
The bullet arcs
oh , so that is newest data right ?
Yes
👌
🔨
Guess this is a good roll for her, right?
it's nothing to do with your skill 
Did you just teach him how to be wasteful?
I would lock 3rd slot though, and roll for elemental, just to spend 2 rocks instead of 3
pulling is skill bro, look at Yugi
you're being wasteful
Dude is so good he gets to dray any card he wants at any moment
it;s already ideally 2/3 lines and only requires ele for perfect OL stats on 1 piece
man is trying to brick your OL roll 
snake... 
Like others said, lock 2/3 roll ele
Lol SR 15 Cindy doll on 90 blues
Holy shit
This is why she didn’t come home in 240 pulls, all my luck went into the dolls
doll is especially important for her since she's a defender
https://m.dcinside.com/board/gov/2134716
Anyone seen this yet?
my Cindy got nearly 60 ammo, more than Scarlet - an AR unit
Im trying to make sense of his atk calc for the auto and s1.
Idk why it'd be lower
(319,060+32,758)
Vs her burst additional dmg
(319,060+65,517)
1st line is gun dmg
2nd is s1 additional dmg
3rd is burst skill additional dmg
4th is burst skill initial 10 hits
Jesus Christ
That's a lot of Max Ammo OL stats
i aint reading all that
but im happy for u
Wait so vigor BIS?
Kek
Isnt bastion better than resil on cindy?
it's minimal difference
as long as u dont reload mid full burst
if u have infinite ammo and shoot for 3 mins straight u gain 3% damage congrats

How much dps is cindy slated to lose once they fix her burst damage bug?
20%ish maybe?
Oh nvm he is using liter b1 so only half uptime on the atk buff.
Not as bad as I thought it would be
lol same, 120k gems gone without single copy, and SR15 doll with almost all blue
and got godly OL stat too
Currently she's at >120% of her potential, so take off the 20% if harran bug is fixed
Need to clear mc before they fix her bug 

i guess more ammo = less worry to manual reload her is nice
bummer about the raid, but the apolokits got her doll to SR15. I never place very high anyways, so I probably come out on top in this deal
counting the gems and such
it's just delayed, not removed dont worry
oh
that's good then. I know the notice said "Temporary Removal" but with the amount of stuff they gave I figured to plan for the worst
i think with this many rewards, it's definitely cancelled
there's also them risking it clashing with UR schedule
could've sworn they've had UR and SR overlap before
Depends on how far it gets delayed for ig
idk how far out they plan Solo Raid, but I guess they'll just do some shuffling or push everything back a month?
I think in practice you're gonna rarely want to manually reload her since it'll interfere greatly with burst gen
if my Cindy got shit ton of ammo (like close to 60), is bastion better ?
that's why just right ammo is the best 
Just because of SU, we have to crack our only two brain cells to solve math about her DPS
WTF?!
yup, because of Cinder
They are giving the full rewards basically
Basically, Behemoth start as a far target
but when transform, the range become mid to close
Is there a general amount of "just right" in terms of ammo? I have 72. I assume that's too much? Is there such a thing?
ShiftUp, you mess up big time this anniversary...
Focus on ED and atk before stuffing ammo
I have 4 lines of ammo and only 1 line of ED (cursed rolls). Some of those ammos are going away for sure
no sr selector doll
Luckily i did the lvl 6 b4 it closed so i get the rewards + compensation 
Blue mat on SR doll...
10 blue mats, that scared the shit out of me.
no frame, lost 2700-3000+ potential gems from being top50 or top200
Okie dokie. Just have to get more rocks. One of my pieces has a max ammo roll on the 3rd line, another has max ammo on the first and ele on 3rd. Another has a blue max on the first line. And I have a grand total of ONE rock 😦
this is the second time SU mess up Solo Raid, but this time is more severe, as it is right at the Anniversary.
the last time didn't force close Raid though
but it did affect the score
should they put SR on 6th November instead at 30th oct for sake not using grave on SR
Yeah same
they didn't predict cindy house of bug
ah i see
Like I said, SU rush deadline, bad management, etc
So time to give Cindy her doll
You mean your cindy doll isn't SR 15 yet?
they even rushed fix the bug, just to leave remnant of it
Took a break from Nikke so had no dolls actually
wow 51 gold box
it's 255 blue mats
JP and KR whales are gonna have a good time screaming at SU
imagine they have C7 Cinder, fully built, and can't use...
Hmm. Good luck with these doll mats then
I super succed a 2.2% blue box to get her SR 15 doll yesterday
All in with the mats to see if I luck out or in small quantities?
I do it one at a time
I change strats depending on what level I get
SR15?
nah, went to 6?
same with me recently
Super succ should go to 5/10/15 instantly
5 then
I get more time to try to roll ele on Cindy 
Ah. You started on SR0
yup
I usually go to R15 with blues then change to SR5
Then try to fish super succs to 10/15
You always do one at a time because it is more efficient to fish for super success 100% of the time.
it doesn't matter the mats won't be used if super succ early
so if you do say 5 at a time and proc super succ on 1st try then you get the 4/5 back
Oh really? It applies the mats individually? I thought it dumped them all at once lmao
procs one at a time
Well that's actually useful then. I never actually tried it cause I didn't wanna waste them 
That's my bad, then.
Yep, so go wild
If the Cinderella bug increases her overall damage by around 20% like some people have been saying then after the nerf how comparable will she be to the other top tier dps units?
Just out of curiosity cause I see a lot of people doomposting again...
Like she should still be better than most of the other dpses in the game right?
Yeah, still top for sure
I thought so cause rn my Cinderella with virtually nothing is almost going neck for neck with my max invested RH for damage
I imagine she'll be more in line with RH and sbs as opposed to just surpassing them almost entirely with no conditions
Rip Cinderella, riot incoming🗣
tural? don't you mean autrl
ultra
Ultra was basically created to cater towards red hood
Lol bro is using Cindy against ultra anomaly
Is liter crown naga cinde rh bad
Ultra made pre buff red hood look good
Half of the time ultra is behind an elemental shield
Plus it has a lot of parts
Not to mention piercable parts
this is in the shooting ramge against elec, wind and iron weak bosses
cindy and sbs both have over 90% ele and rh 45%, all 3 have around 35% atk with 3 rolls
Shift up does that very often
Where they just release or conveniently have a SR that favors specific units so people can see how strong those units are under favorable conditions
"very often". When have they not?
Also, there is another bug I think relates to CC, I'm grinding hard 31 and Cinder is on slot 4, she bursts and shoots the left horn of CC (Crystal Chambers) and I have noticed CC repeat pattern a lot: throw crystal at the same spot, and always summon right horn, it happens continuously.
she's bugged again?
That is just my guess. also, her beams is guarantee to hit skill 1 when aim at the horn on the right.
there is only a small little hitbox at the most end of the horn that Cinder can safely hit, but I have to say how tiny the spot is.
Compare to left horn which have more room for damaging it safely.
tch, what a bad design
both CC and cinder
Yoo is cindy getting nerfed??
why
Hell no
Also, her dps is still bugged, so yeah, bad luck for anyone want to counter CC by using Cinder.
CC is fixed at Near position, the mechanism can only allow Cinder to aim at the left horn, also when she Burst, she blinds the screen and CC can Nuke your team.
If you burst with her while shooting she does like 20% more damage
It's a bug
Is this for pvp?
Nerf shouldn't matter that much but I expect it'll bring her more in line with Red Hood and sbs as opposed to just blatantly better most of the time
not related...
Wdym
I don't know about her on pvp
So we're talking pve here
they closed solo raid, but didnt list the cindy charge bug in known issues.
maybe theyll keep it 
They already fixing it? Bruh
Whats CC, btw?
they ain't gonna nerf her right after canceling SR imo
chamber doesnt have core tho right?
no core yep
oh nvm i see the issue
nope
Yep good for pve if u dont have other units
CC can easily be fixed by making the horn longer
or move Skill's circle away from the horn
Crown, liter, alice, mod, naga is prolly better tho right
Like, cindy doesnt have to replace any1?
Can consider replacing Cindy with Alice or Mod, depending which is less invested
She is being nerf due to bugs
fix it, her dps will return to what it suppose to be.
People are crying lol
heck, the temporary fix already improve her dps
People hear 'nerf' and they are doomposting
"gUys I pUllEd bEcAuSe sHe iS bUgGeD"
i mean hes right
But after fixing it's still sbs level
So replace mod with cindy you mean?
she can't aim near target now?
aiming with her is weird ngl
You pull because Big numbers
I pulled because I want the apologems
we are not the same 
Not at all
Theyre giving apologems??
Maybe
Scroll up to read about CC
Yep! Cindy can replace Mod or Alice whicever is weaker
A nerf is lowering her numbers, for example, which is not happening here
So is cindy going to perform a bit low after this patch?
No one knows. Jus have to have for SU finalise
It's a bug and it should be fixed to prevent future incidents. They can just add another buff to compensate for that.
Hope so
explain?
we don't have sr up
doomposting 2nd best thing to do in this game
same
lets riot
If it's a bug, don't expect it to stay. Why would you pull when you know it's eventually going to get fixed
bro some people dont fucking read discord 24/7
they just watch if number is good
thats what he was saying
did sky vid mentioned bug
that was the vid he was commenting not discord channel
oh nvm thats a new video
thought was the old one
It's su's problem not mine
this accounts core damage ?
yeah 1st line the** (1.075 +0.5 +1)**
oh right
I am rereading the chat
And Im laughing at this Slayer guy
Who acts cocky and says all the wrong things
I mean, not everyone is on Discord. With 45 million downloads, and like less than 200k on the official Discord, safe to say that a lot of people (probably most) aren't even aware that there's a bug. Probably safe to say that the majority don't engage with the meta aspects of the game, and don't even know that there's a bug. They just see PRETTY WHITE HAIRED TWINTAILS THAT DOES A SHIT TON OF DAMAGE and pull. Then a fix goes out and they'll be all, "Why does my waifu do 20% less damage now?". Most of them will be justifiably pissed lol
But we shud be glad
Because if dumb people exist
Its easier for us to rank higher in SR
Free gems

Kitoxic
Temporary closure
Hey listen
so they probably plan to try to do it still
That means we get our gems + 500, so that's fine with me 👌
Sad part is now we'll be out of sync with skill resets 
Vigor diluted by Rouge Crown, etc.
25 days for skill reset this time
But Resil is buffed by Crown.
I assume you were thinking it’s like 1 week or less for skill reset
iirc it’s usually about 4 days
Also Bastion is her best cube anyways.
with Crown and S.Anis, Cindy doesn't need Max ammo right? 
Unless you tend to start reloading right as team is about to enter full burst, I guess so
But doesn’t Cinderella still have to recharge anyway?
Reloading interrupts the 100% charge speed?
if she keeps shooting, no reload
True.
Wait.
“Removed upon reloading to max ammunition”
RIP
let me check
That is Grave?
Cinderella
Basically, if you try to do 100% reload speed approach to get around Cinderella base ammo, the condition of removing 100% charge speed upon reloading to maximum ammo will still force a 1 second charge up time on you in the middle of full burst
It’s not like say Winter Ludmilla where you insta-reload and keep shooting
Cinderella will still insta reload, but that annoying 1 second chargeup time will be enforced 
Still, that’s not too bad I guess
100% reload is fixed
It is, actually
so yeah, that a force behavior from SU, I guess to prevent bug
if you're having to use priv for the 100% reload, it's quite bad
She shoots 3 times per second with her buff
you end up having to charge more often
Reload after every shot drops it to ~1/s
Cinder is very nice design, but due to SU's incompetent, it raise a lot of issues.
Oh yeah, definitely not sticking Cinderella with Privaty 
Patch came out already?
Not in last hour
she's recharging at 15sec
Patch my butts
patch what
yup, ammo refill already, but still does reload animation
you can post this in https://discord.com/channels/946719263866101821/1301398523882901550
it's not a bug though
I heard cindy loses around 25% dps if the bug got patched
clearly stated in the skill description
Does not seem that bad
the 100% reload interaction is working as intended
We will see
she doesn't cover after each shot, so doesn't get a chance to reload them, and once she runs out, she insta reloads but still has to charge
if she covers after each shot she might have to charge every single shot 
So, with Crown + SAnis, no cube:
- 0 ammo = 8s uptime + 1.494s downtime (1.794s auto?)
- 50% ammo = ~
With Crown + SAnis AND Resilience
- 0 ammo = 8s uptime + 1.1833s downtime (1.4833s auto?)
With Crown + SAnis AND Bastion:
- 0 ammo = 11.432s uptime + 1.494s downtime (1.794s auto?)
that is why her decoy there

Sorry, wrong.
Fixed.
I am sure downtime is 0.3s higher on auto.
So, with Crown + SAnis, no cube + MANUAL:
- 0 ammo = 455 shots fired
With Crown + SAnis AND Resilience + MANUAL:
- 0 ammo = 470 shots fired
With Crown + SAnis AND Bastion + MANUAL:
- 0 ammo = 477.6 shots fired
I stopped playing to stop recording at the end of the video
so please ignore the last relaod animation
sure, I can ignore relaod animation.
This does not affect burst damage.

Idk how much % is her burst damage.
Who
I assume without Crown, Resilience is better than Bastion.
so the reload is inevitable, you need to delay it as much as you can
blanc noir is an example
Does she still have the 0.3s charge time delay on auto
Well, I just suggest a new status effect for Cinder: Decoy
in the Effect in use list when NIKKE is on the battlefield. So we can tell if her decoy is on or not.
The visual effect is shit.
1s you mean?

first shot has full charge time
Anim delay?
People wilding in MideusSS videos



Hopefully the bug fix doesn't hit her that hard
if they fix her core hit issues at the same time, her dmg shouldn't change that much
Not fixing a bug just sets a bad precedent for the future imo
on paper, Cindy is still a great unit even without the charge damage bug
If one nikke gets to keep their bugs that benefit them then people will want everyone to keep future bugs
If anything remove the bug and buff to compensate
Probably a bug fix and maybe a buff to her to compensate
The nikke community is incredibly braindead so they won't see that as being a benefit and will just assume she's ass
Because people are dumb as hell in this community and don't understand mechanics
I swear a buff will be needed to placate the people with the bug fix
They won't shut the fuck up until she gets one
Ignore the fact she'd still be one of the best dpses in the game
I would like a buff to her projectiles, make them travel faster or something
all I want, is for her on paper dps to actually be reflected in game
Not the most optimal but still usable in campaign
crazy idea
that already happen
Does Cindy need an AOE buff?
If Cinderella gets to keep her bug then Harran should get hers back but of course the community doesn't care about that because they probably don't even know it existed on Harran
how long did it take for harran bug to be fixed
I don't think SR delay is just bc of that, shouldn't be that hard to fix
They could technically bump the 2.71% number to be higher but who knows
imo they're prob gonna rework her projectiles to some extent
fat projectile was just a bandaid solution that caused core hit issues
need to improve the actual tracking
or something
Personally I'm fine with her being brought more in line with RH and SBS without conditions
Pushing for beneficial bugs to be kept isn't going to be good for the game in the long run
I forgot that they literally x8 the projectile from 50 to 400 
And everytime a new broken unit comes out it pushes for even furtherly broken units down the road
yeah the bug needs to get removed, unless they keep it as a feature of kit (reword kit and all that)
Fgo is a good example of that with the release of Arjuna alter, a character who was so broken he essentially forced every following aoe unit into needing to be on par with him to keep hype
Allowing potentially game breaking bugs is stupid and it's a good thing these people aren't devs
even if bug is kept (integrated officially into the kit), and she gains the ability to core hit reliably, I think she's still reasonable in terms of power
SU won't buff anything until Cinder is free of bug, they don't want to risk generate more bugs.
Because what happens if an even more broken bug slips by?
prob highest raw dmg in core hit and no pierce situation by a little bit
but in pierce or large aoe she easily loses
I find that acceptable
esp for a 2nd anni unit
They're probably hitting their heads at the wall or their desk trying to code fix Cindy projectile or bug
either way bug needs to be officially integrated or removed, can't have something like that unstated
I just dont believe she should allow to be on par with or better than a C7 RH with a doll while having no dupes or a doll herself solely because of an unintentional design flaw
make it a feature or squash the bug basically
Official integration would be fine because at least it would show up in her kit as opposed to being hidden
eh, that's within bounds of what I would find acceptable imo, esp since rh easily beats her in usability (B1) and pierce
but yeah it would make her the strongest non-pierce dps
The issue is it's non intentional and you can't actually read it as being a part of her kit because of that
yeah
And like i said pushing for "beneficial" bugs to be kept is just a terrible idea
Because there could be far more broken bugs down the road
tbf I don't think SU has a track record of doing that
alice bug got patched
and harran
so I'm not too worried
No but it's these dumbass cumbrains that want it to be kept without integration or removal
just hoping whatever fixes they make to her projectiles actually make them work well
After the red hood backlash I don't think shift up is stupid enough to not at least compensate for it somewhat
Literally everyone knows about it now thanks to content creators
They'll probably buff Cindy a little bit after the bug fix
reliable core hit is enough of a compensation for me
better tracking and aoe on projectiles would be a nice bonus
decoy qol would be nice too
but that prob is more complicated
since prev decoys don't have them
I wouldn't mind 2.71% increase atk on max health to be bumped up after bug fix

Maybe a higher HP pool for the decoy on activating burst?
her basic is not that impressive from the very start
Would her basic need an increase at all or its fine as it is?
her on paper dps is fine
well thats not really compensation since that was supposed to be there from the get go
well the burst bug wasn't supposed to be there either 
some gems ig
it's not like there are many that pulled cindy just bc of her burst bug
if they fix bugs that reduced her practical dps at the same time, that is prob enough
Small buff to some of the numbers on her skills sets would be nice
None of these people bitching about a potential nerf knew about it until like 10 hours ago lol
Anyone have the math on the damage difference between S2 being 4 vs 10. I might end up resetting her 
Yeah I stupidly went 10/10/10 and could use those mats for rouge instead
I think 4 enough or 7
lvl 4 to lvl 10, is a 1% increase in final atk (assuming no other buffers) for my cindy
so at best 1% more final dmg


lvl 7 is plenty

ngl it has to be alot not a little(proper integration)
her bug rn is the only reason shes getting much use in my main teams...i didnt know pierce was so important
pierce and true aoe clear are still king in most of campaign
cindy's usefulness is closer to sbs in campaign
niche
Pierce has always been goated
yeah
I have been using Cindy and Alice in campaign 
i always end up using alice anyways in campaign lmao
I could use privaty but eh, test running Cindy and she's pulling her weight even with lower team power than the recommended
still lost because lack dps but I will see after they fix her
whatever the fix it is
I hope they properly test out whatever fix they make
But yeah, I kinda expect a buff of some sort after fixing her
so that a new issue doesn't pop up
Ill be honest
they wont let her be weak dw
being a dev isnt easy...
i think they lack a proper QA team
Lotsa people said that about Harran back in the day
harran isnt backed by mega whales
they still trying to bounce back from eva event so theyll do whatever it takes to keep profits up
Either there's no test team or the bug escaped the controlled testing environment
It's hard to say about what is going on in ShiftUp's team, but they have expressed behaviors of rushing deadlines, messing up schedule, repeat small mistakes from time to time (like localize translation)
They probably shifted devs to another project again...
the big worry is shes meant to be strong, and as such they accounted for her dmg with the bug this anni
if they remove the bug we get pre announcement cindy and alot of angry whales
so they have to rework
I know a few things about the working environment of Korea, as I researched it for fun, ShiftUp is facing common problems like other KR companies.
Like, I don't feel ShiftUp itself is smart talking in terms of like overall perceived intelligence like IQ (idk I just feel like as if they are less than other good devs), but they understand the market well and their manipulation tactics are pretty good and crafty.
I do think they have brains, but bad management ruins everything. Even an intelligent worker can't do shit with rush deadlines or dealing with a bad manager.
Rather, I am sensing their presented establishments to be rather below average.
This has been consistent since release.
There is a chance it is because one of the higher ups.
Like one of the higher ups is "dumb".
I always check out the monthly revenue of gacha games. For NIKKE, it's stable to say the least, but haven't reached peak revenue for months.
No, it's not about productivity or performance.
It's strictly talking IQ in this case.
At least their main story writers are competent.
Their moves, kits, designs, and a large portion of these have been made as if they were made by someone with low IQ.
There are some parts of the game that don't present this problem interestingly.
Like their minigame team is pretty solid.
I see no problem with that.
Mini game for example, it's likely they give another team the project
which is small, hence they can do it perfectly
If the minigame is 100% quality,
Nikke is 80%.
Just as if it was led by someone with low IQ, like literally.
Not the CEO of course.
but theyve made that big console game no?
Stellar blade
i think maybe nikke blew up wayy more then they expected
Like I said earlier,
forogr his name
This is also a phenomenon when comparing indie games with a bigger scale game (not AAA scale)
A good team is one thing, a best manager is another. With a small team, they can watch over each other, monitor if the other keep up or make any mistake.
honestly quality wise i cant picture a gacha game better than nikke
SU has many teams for different projects, the team handling Stellar Blade has nothing to do with NIKKE.
The game imparts aura as if it is made or managed or led by someone with below than average IQ (likely not the CEO himself but one of the higher ups). They, however, understand the market well and have crafty manipulation tactics, and these compensate for them because normal average humans beings will not able to sense/perceive the lower intelligence-ness.
I am sure some do.
Because I have seen people complaining about this and that.
And I know only those who realize would actually rant about them.
You can literally compare how shit Nikke is compared to their literally perfect minigames.
However, in trained eyes players, they play NIKKE just for fun, but don't raise it rating highly.
Their minigames are modern quality.
Better than average in fact.
The game itself is rather slipshod.
I think the damage recap is really inflated/wrong on cinderella. I'm doing a regular tower stage and felt like redhood was the one doing the rapture killings. cinderella's regular attacks dealt subpar damage
If not the most slipshod game I have ever seen that somehow thrives because they can cover the holes.
illusion sells, you know
It's like fixing a big road hole with a plank or something.
They don't fix the problem. They just cover it up. It feels like there are many of this everywhere.
it also has to do with how different compared to the mostly trash other gacha game gameplay are
the actual main gameplay of nikke is
feeling the recoil,watching things explode
its a very high dopamine inducing game
compared to something like your typical slow paced grindy gacha
In other words, the game does not feel as polished.
SU skip Halloween and only give it minimum attention because they are dumb.
Who the heck released the game right near Halloween? If do it, just skip the holiday
I have seen way better.
youve seen better but have you felt better?
NIKKE is actualy one of the most favorite gacha games right now.
Two years and players are still complaining about the pace of the game.
think about it , a game can be high quality with stellar gameplay
but most players will end up playing the flashy action game that gives feedback and dopamine
It's fast and not relax when you get to later contents.
ZZZ and Star Rail are there but I dont want to touch a Hoyo game
Try hard stages, I'm at the door of hard chapter 32 and I want to swear...
Last time I felt better was during the good ol times of Honkai Impact 3, before they made the shitty Part 2 ruining the game.
stop thinking
because trained eyes always have fewer voices than the majority. Hence even with ratings, the majority decide the final score.
see what i mean?, honkai felt amazing because it was new at the time .it wasnt difficult but it had actual combat.....in a gacha game
nikke is similar its one of the only gacha which is not a honkai,genshin or rpg game clone rn
As always, it takes a higher intelligence to sense something of lower intelligence. It takes more experience to sense something that lacks experienve.
The average will not see.
Nikke's technical aspect is really lacking for such a big game
Old Honkai Impact 3 had a pretty traditional economic scheme involving players' favorability as a large part of their decision making.
that's very easy to see
If I have to rate NIKKE on a competitive ladder compared to other KR's games, it's mid.
the game's optimization is shit
Competitive is something KR proud of, hence they likes it, a lot.
Now, miHoYo are making all their games fundamentally different, with a more modern and futuristic spending system, similar to subscriptions, where if you don't subscribe to their passes/monthlies, you get left behind.
Think of Netflix but as a gacha game.
exactly and yet...it feels good in your brain right?, the feedback you get from jiggly nikke blowing stuff up with visible recoil is dopamine inducing
look at fire rate of guns 
That is exactly how miHoYo games are developed right now.
Nikke?
They are somewhere in between these 2.
kisenix pls you're yapping too hard about topics not related to cinderella
They don't employ the traditional gacha economy and spending system. But they are not modern either.
Destiny Child would be considered traditional.
Cinderella's bug is the proof of their dev team's inadequaties
And unfortunately,
The new more modern and futuristic spending system do benefit the devs more than the players.
at first and now he's going full off the rails 
Cus money. 🤑
They 'fix' it, a rush patch, then the remnant of it is still messing with us.
nah man, ain't no way
Did they say anything about what they’re gonna do about the cindy bug?
that is not a good devs
good devs dive deep in the problem to fix the root, not bandaid it
No.
this is a regular tower wall stage, electric weak but cindy only has like 45% ele
ain't no way she dealt that much compared to rh
I think the whole chat.
Better than keep it dead.
this is true in an ideal world. However it's not
I know, suck 
Yeah, they patching a hole but not fixing the underlying problem.
time is of the essense, so they try to solve the problem as soon as possible
then they realize problem goes deeper than that. Decided to postpone solo raid
and look at that, close Solo Raid.
it was a good move tbh
this is the first time a bug so serve, it close the SR
They have a very very very very very modern management system like something more Agile-ish.
i think they might develop in sprints(agile development)
The speed in deving this way always leads to a band aid type of fixing not a real fix
woahh
i was just about to type that lol
Unfortunate turn of events
i mean which kind of dev team dont work Agile nowadays
And let not talk about translation localize.
her basic has splash
accept it
that just trigger me more...
Yeah, things get done and fixed at different speeds with little to correlation between them and their quality barely matches, definitely Agile-ish.
Agile can work really well for their small events cuz the scope and workload is predictable
Their minigame team is literally better.
rh also has pierce the hell
Than the team for the rest of the game.
for big events, shit gonna get complicated
this is more like it. land eater tower 580. rh burst first
the thing with mini game team is that they dont give a fuck about the main game
it's just a game within a game
there's a lot less involvement with the core system
but fight ended on cindy burst
it actually dont
Oh, yeah, ideally they do normal workflow for the game itself and Agile is okay for the subparts of the game. But everything has to go through the main group's QC process before going live.
well not 400
Cinder in mini game have better dps and aim than real Cinder 
Because at the moment, the QC is weak or rather nonexistent.
The devs are doing the QC themselves.
yeah i can picture it
they have a backlog of issues and upcoming content
then they work on each piece on a fast pace sprint that maybe lasts 2 weeks
if it gets fixed then good if not put it back in the backlog and pick whatever else is more important
With SO MANY BUGS.
Lol.
Honestly, though,
The reason why Nikke feels slipshod.
Is because a large part of Nikke is being worked on by interns.
Like literally.
Lol.
And you know what's better for interns usually? Sprint systems.
I want NIKKE to become better, not just display an illusion of it.
what the hell is blud waffling about
normal RL vs Cindy
normal RL has small projectile size but big AoE splash
Cindy has big projectile size but small AoE splash
which make no sense
Nikke is not an illusion. It's just your run of the mill factory with nothing special but just good publication of their reputation, credibility, etc.
we know how real life rocket launcher work, big package in a small size, explode when contact, generally.
why make it reverse? 
NIKKE in technically is ok, seems all right maybe 6/10.
sci fi laser magic shit i guess
oh boy, 
Because it is a beam/laser.
yes, in story, her beams are describe as lasers
however, in gameplay, that is not a fricking lasers.
more like 3 or 4 out of 10
it a projectile that leave a trail behind, basically a bullet, with illuminate on it.
Lapplace in gameplay is an example of a right laser
That's the whole game quality, not the technicality only.
Nikke run hotter than ZZZ in my phone
you can't bend the basic definition of something
Nikke could have been more. Now they're just feeding us filler events until annivs
yup, NIKKE is still eat a lot of battery, memory storage
Whatever Cindy is firing it's not laser
and shit fps
you can't just bend laser like that
Well, technicality doesn't refer to whether the game is optimized only.
also lasers have a pin-point accuracy
Game design is also part of technicality.
Well, the definition of Glass slippers are all over the place.
I am actually surprised how people find Nikke mindblowing.
it's not accurate in gameplay, lore, or even basic...
just make it fire a straight laser like Lapplace
I even said: “Do you guys have never experienced a better gacha game or what? Like have you guys been playing gacha games from some scummy ah greedy tactic devs?”
Cus literally Nikke is mid/average.
Oh surely those translators are some linguistics interns.
From Korea, not outside Korea.
And we know English education is quite terrible in Korea and Japan, with some exceptions (very prestigious university/schools).
Have you guys watched Evangelion?
The first time you see the laser, it goes straight, but leaves a big impression, as it pierces everything to the sky.
There, is beauty and functionality.
And SU promoting themselves as a "WHOLESOME COMPANY THAT IS ALL INCLUSIVE" obviously does not hire interns only from those big universities.
No excuse, I have played JP/KR/CN gacha games on global, which have impressive EN localize.
They can do it, but they choose something worst.
Cus they have poor KR interns working on them.
Ok boy and girl

damn
Bro, it is even below average quality.
You don't have to.
Better start working on the guide and give some useful maths.
So I can work on them.
Turn them into beautiful words.
Actually, there are parts of the game with actually insane quality of EN translations.
Like actually good.
And then there are some that are horrible.
I wonder.
is liter good with her
Not the best
Remember Dorothy's Mini Game?
So far, the second anniversary has a score on story, mini-game, maps, and event content.
But minus the most hyped NIKKE, also overprice skins and translation localize.
It was written in good English.
oh then who is
Why is the minigame always perfect? Is it outsourced?
Rouge best
:despairge:
they said 2nd anni gonna be big, but so far it's not that different from Red Ash
You misheard.
Like I said before, a smaller team handle mini games
they still connecting to main team, but can work independently
I expected Champs to release.
and maybe the bad manager just let them do whatever
OH WAIT THEY DIDNT EVEN FUCKING KEEP THEIR PROMISE DO THEY?
smaller team can watch each other easily
From the promised buffs announced in July 2023, which never arrive.
To Champs Arena being delayed indefinitely.
butts are big
same with the bugs.

NIKKE is not worth your money.
Like honestly.
Low quality shits.
People just spend cus it's somewhat fun.
yeah I'm still against that shit gacha skin
20$, ok I can spend sometimes
ain't no way I throw 60$
how i feel knowing reruns dont exist in this game and rouge is a pipe dream for me 😂
Like I believe there is 0% player who spends because they want to support the devs.
their 60$ gacha skins are clearly lacking to justify the price
And there are around 40% for other games.
Like if a game is so good, I would literally fucking pay just to support them.
I doubt it, because gacha skin are still there
Nikke is just not one of them.
meaning there are players do spend on it
ogscarlet's tree looks so mid
They want the gacha skins.
Not support the devs.
Different mindset.
also, the drop rate is literally shit
Support the devs means if I pay you, I would still be happy even if I don't receive anything back.
That's what I mean.
Nikke is definitely not one of this.

RH biased.
honestly... even if they make the bug part of her kit or buff her so it's same dmg, she's still not that broken
well that's a campaign setup
don't judge it yet
ain't gonna use my rouge for neutral campaign
Campaign setup uses RH B1 bruh.
that's mald campaign setup, plus how am I supposed to do a full run with that
With another B1.
Crown Cindy SAnis RH Naga/Liter/Rapu/DWife/Rouge
I ain't using that in neutral
There is no neutral in campaign.
Today is element meta.
Don't stay in 2023.

^
You will use RH
bring out your xlud?
Emilia.
You have no idea how brutal hard stages later be
water weak is wack
I'm at hard 31, final boss
yeah use quency sure
Probably XLud + Quency.
But with new Water DPS, XLud will perish.
And get replaced.
I ain't building high investing into quency just so she's high enough cp
and also I'm not made of rocks, can't afford to 2+ ele every dps
Quency is strong for campaign.
Just that her time has not arrived yet.
No water weak.
Once water weak comes, she + new Water DPS (Pilgrim?) will be the meta.
Well, it depends whether that Water DPS is an AoE damage dealer or single target.
If it's AoE, Quency will perish.
If it's ST, XLud will perish.

yeah ain't happening, would rather still use rh/alice/mod as dps over using tons of resources on quency just for water weak
@old forge lmao I'm watching your Convo in main cord. I gave up , it's like talking to a wall
That's up to you.
Too many people think like that
xlud won't be obsolete for a long time
I am just saying peak performance is ELE team.
Apparently
cuz she's not selfish dps
Aka strongest but also comfiest CP deficit pushers.
Are ELE teams with 70-90%+ ELE.
that's not practical bc of the resources needed
a single well built ele dps slotted into a generalist campaign team sure, I do that sometimes
Ein was not a true campaign pusher.
Cindy is the true one but she has problems.
Now, we have full complete set for Elemental Campaign.
Already.
Guys, a new cd-key just drop... Right when cd-key-channel is not WORKING!!
- Fire: Asuka Alice (+ Modernia)
- Water: Emilia + XLud Quency or XLud + Quency
- Iron: RH + Maxwell (or Alice)
- Electric: Cindy + SAnis (+ Ein)
- Wind: SBS + Alice
It is now complete.
ShiftUp, really?!
Alice, a sus bunny.
What key.
Lul, Shotgun team can wait some more
I still feel like we need a new wind DPS that could buff SBS like alice does while also being in element
you are a veteran player, you know where to check 
There is none
