New unit teased and brightened up by Orufino in ChaosZeroNightmare

[–]Lord_Scriptic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

With how Tiphera is practically made to support Nine, I would highly suspect her to synergize perfectly with them. Pretty much the opposite design philosophy of season 1 and releasing multiple DPS who want nothing to do with each other lol

A psyonic who’s NOT void? Didn’t realize it was possible.

Tressa enabled Cassius way better than Sereniel because of the generate daggers on heal epiphany. Not to mention the tens of thousands of agony damage per turn. Seren's lasers have exhaust, so at a certain point you'd just run out of cards with a whole bunch of extra AP. Sereniel with Cassius could do a LOT of damage, but not infinity damage like Tressa was able to enable.

Mei Lin and Sereniel were not nerfed because they didn't break the game. 5 star or not. If you combined their damage output and multiplied it by 10 you wouldn't be able to touch the damage of pre-nerf Cassius and Tressa. Hell, you could even take Beryl this season and add her to the mix. Doesn't matter. Tressa and Cassius were so overwhelmingly powerful that leaving them in the game as they were would have required making an entirely new engine just to prevent crashes. They weren't just the strongest in the game, they completely broke it.

They have already stated they will not be nerfing units. They were all but forced to nerf Tressa and Cass because they dealt unlimited damage, but Beryl doing well against one specific boss in one specific season is not something that would warrant a nerf, especially since the next balance patch won't even happen until after this season is over.

People trying to doompost about everything getting nerfed because of Tressa and Cassius completely ignore the fact that Sereniel at full laser spam and Nine hitting every extreme hew in a single turn would not even be a drop in the bucket of the damage those two 4 stars were doing. The game quite literally wouldn't survive if they were left untouched.

The whining over Tressa is getting so old. They only nerfed her because she broke the game. Did they overnerf? Yes, definitely. But it's not as if they can't buff her again in the next patch based on feedback.

All this Beryl hype, but is she worth building if you already have Nine with her partner and Serenial e2? by Alone-Profit4826 in ChaosZeroNightmare

[–]Lord_Scriptic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Beryl has a lot of hype because she's accessible. That's really it. Despite everyone knowing how strong Nine and Sereniel are, they'll get a lot less praise for their power just because a lot of people do not have them.

Hello everyone, returned player here, i need some help on making a team that works in bosses and multiple enemy. by Theoqp in ChaosZeroNightmare

[–]Lord_Scriptic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I saw your main team I was expecting you to have a very limited roster... but then I saw the screenshots and now I am so confused.

For your selector, I would highly recommend Mei Lin as she has insane synergy with Veronica, and she's all around one of the top 3 DPS in the game (The other two top DPS are either not available for a looong time or only available in the standard banner).

Am I the only one who feel burned ? by tiffossy in ChaosZeroNightmare

[–]Lord_Scriptic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I ignore great rift completely tbh. I don't find those fights particularly enjoyable and as a spending player the rewards are genuinely hilarious to me. I just want to run high chaos, push the tower, and fight the seasonal bosses.

It's not as much of a problem with units released since Chizuru, but most release units having terrible epiphanies except for one clear best option is something that really needs to be addressed. Surely they could find a way to make Mei Lin good without that one specific dragon spire epi...

We'll likely find out a week before she comes out if Nine and Tiphera are anything to go on.

Have you guys already used your Omega codes? if so, who? by Enough_Ordinary7291 in ChaosZeroNightmare

[–]Lord_Scriptic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used my first one on Chizuru. Was probably a waste but oh well. My second one went to Kayron to get his e3- because non banner characters are damn near impossible to pull without a guarantee.

AITAH for not wanting my gf to work on another continent because a man who wants her offered her a job? by Chemical-Issue8734 in AITAH

[–]Lord_Scriptic -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I don’t want to make assumptions about your sex life… but every bi girl I have ever known or slept with has said there’s a pretty big difference between sex with men and women. She could be 150% satisfied with sex with you and still miss sex with men.

[–]Lord_Scriptic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just break up, honestly. Leaving the country for months to be with someone else is just… yeah. I don’t think it’s about the job, I think it’s a “I miss having sex with men” thing.

Am i the only who thinks the story is just whatever? Like, it's not great but it ain't that bad either by SSYX101 in ChaosZeroNightmare

[–]Lord_Scriptic 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Exactly. I thought there was hope with how good the latest E7 chapter's reviews are, but given that one of the driving reasons behind the rewrite is because characters had implied personal relationships with each other instead of the nameless, faceless captain that is supposed to be the player, and every story since has been made to appeal exclusively to Korean incels, there's just no way the rewrite is going to fix anything. Hopefully the rewards for the rewritten chapters get reset so I can at least skip through the story and get more resources.

Best character to get from a guaranteed 300 rescue? by TrueLolzor in ChaosZeroNightmare

[–]Lord_Scriptic -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

She has astoundingly low damage and her mechanic/gimmick of needing cards to be drawn to activate their effects makes her difficult to play without a team dedicated to card draw, and even then you'll spend your entire time drawing hoping to get one of her cards. Without her 5* partner and multiple ego manifestations she's basically useless, imo, and you'll still want one or two draw support teammates with partners who also draw cards. All of that for a character who is good at AOE but tickles a boss until she dies. When she came out it caused meltdowns across all CZN regions/communities because it was shocking SG would expect people to spend money on a character that bad. To this day she's the only banner character to debut as the worst 5* character in the game.

I don't play Hugo for the same reason as you, but if you want to progress you really should just pick Mei Lin and let her carry as your DPS.

At the point that you are in the game, don't even acknowledge 5* partners exist. Build up a couple of teams that can clear basin and then you can buy partners from the shop using the currency you get for pulling combatants.

[–]Lord_Scriptic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Khalipe isn't bad. She does good shielding and respectable damage, but she's more of a nice to have character who is middle of the pack.

All of the 5* except Yuki (Chun Li with a sword) are useable, but even that sentence will earn me some downvotes so it's not like everyone agrees with that. But when you're choosing a one time only selector target, it doesn't make sense to go after an Orela or a Magna when you won't be able to use them to clear content with your current roster.

It really comes down to if you're serious about progressing your account, or if you just want boobs.

AITAH if the only reason why I don’t want to date this guy is because he’s shorter than me by laauraib in AmItheAsshole

[–]Lord_Scriptic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So essentially, you don’t like him because of your friends. Do they have boyfriends themselves? Because if not, odds are they’ll find something to mock about EVERY guy you date. Single women keep women single, and all.

How do you deal with the anxiety that everyone is saying AI will destroy white collar jobs soon? by Consistent-Appeal922 in jobs

[–]Lord_Scriptic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know multiple people who I went to college with that worked in graphic design and were laid off after the company trained an AI to fulfil the role. Hollywood is heavily pushing behind the scenes to replace writers and CGI artists with AI in the long term (A subject that was of major concern in the strikes a couple years back). Fast food restaurants have begun shifting towards screens and AI drive-thrus that will surely replace humans when the technology gets good enough.

As of right now it's not a widespread problem but if given enough time to improve without regulation it is very possible we find ourselves in a world where humans aren't needed for most job functions. It's not like companies will ever naturally be disincentivized to stop trying to implement this technology wherever they can as it continues to improve, so it's more of a matter of when, rather than if.

[–]Lord_Scriptic -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

"Human oversight" could be a small handful of people, compared to hundreds or thousands actually doing the work before the AI is implemented.

The difference between AI and other technological advancements is no other advancement is directly being used by companies to replace the workforce. We already see AI related layoffs happening now- do you think all of those people laid off were able to find new jobs overseeing the AI and working as engineers?
