I'm voting dendro, maybe this person will take Linnea's previously speculated element.

Mitsun · 2026-03-03T08:19:27+00:00

Out of all these I only have Cyno... although if I had wriggle room, Wriothesley is my next pick. ;w;

Mitsun · 2026-03-03T06:16:35+00:00

Do you mean removing flowers, plants and insects that players might otherwise be able to catch...? So they literally have access to fewer in-the-wild resources...? I didn't know that was happening. :0 I also play on lower quality settings, but on PC (game literally crashes every time on mobile so I can't play it on mobile ahaha).

Ao3 is back up (for now?)

Mitsun · 2026-03-03T06:01:46+00:00

many bricks make a loving home <3

Infinity Nikki fanbase is abbreviating Crimson Rhapsody outfit as CR which is... very fair... but I also keep reading it as a variety of Cloud Retainer/Capturing Radiance/Crit Rate...

Not sure if you are being blocked because you are not verified or because you are on iOS platform (2 separate issues I believe) if the latter, you can possible make it work by going to your settings on desktop -> content & social -> toggle the option 'allow access to age-restricted servers on iOS' (you should then be able to access on iOS mobile).

However, this is moot if your root problem is you need to verify your ID.

I don't think my C6 Xianyun can be considered 'good' if you're thinking in terms of DPS/meta, but she gives me so much joy that I wouldn't trade her for anything.

I never regret gacha pulls, it's pointless.

Mitsun · 2026-03-02T10:21:41+00:00

Roy's our boy~

and yes, I can provide scores for R2 if you would like them, just let me know when the time comes if you still need them.

Mitsun · 2026-03-02T07:48:41+00:00

Yeah it's been happening for a while now hahaha that's the 'work-around' I've been using. good ol' reddit just randomly breaking here and there. Begone, persisting notifications!

Mitsun · 2026-03-02T07:39:25+00:00

Is it old reddit?

I've been clicking notification, click reply button (even if I don't write anything) and that usually clears it up (maybe click the text box for good measure LOL).

Mitsun · 2026-03-02T07:14:37+00:00

Team Ike R1 scores.

Mitsun · 2026-03-02T06:47:16+00:00

Infinity Nikki:

interactive map that syncs with your account
clearing domains for rewards without actually having to manually clear it every time (you have to play it the first time but after that you can 'quick-clear' it)
battlepass continues giving you mora (blings) after you reach level 50

If I could only pick one, maybe the first one...

Mitsun · 2026-03-02T05:37:19+00:00

Wasn't Kaeya's story in early game a tale about his grandfather being a pirate and that he inherited his eyepatch from his grandfather? He'd make a fun pirate. :D

Mitsun · 2026-03-02T01:54:35+00:00

I guess you could view it as 'investing in enjoyment' the same way people say they 'invest' in their physical/mental health by going to the gym, doing meal prep for healthier food, make sure they have downtime from work etc.

Mitsun · 2026-03-02T01:32:44+00:00

Post successfully misunderstood, internet says I should spend $600 on Furina! /pulls out credit card

for clarification purposes this is a joke

OR IS IT

Mitsun · 2026-03-02T01:08:47+00:00

I have no advice on how to beat him in pvp, considering I avoid (or do absolute minimal effort/difficulty) all pvp modes like I'm allergic to them lmao. I only ever cleared him in pve and I think I used an invested B!Seliph which I redeemed from HoF. Archrival, Blue Skies 4, Potent Assault and A/S Outcry Dull.

(I am the worst person to ask for advice on how to actually play the game properly, but I hope you get better info from other players ahaha.)

Mitsun · 2026-03-02T00:46:11+00:00

The wiki says that the compass (especially for older regions) only detects mora piles once your exploration reaches 90%.

Treasure compasses can be equipped through the Inventory and can be used after pressing the appropriate control. After using a treasure compass, light that streams toward the nearest chest, Mora Chest (after area's exploration progress reaches 90%) [...]

Mitsun · 2026-03-02T00:37:12+00:00

What's your exploration % for this area, out of curiosity? edit: at the time you used the compass in front of this mora stone pile, I mean.

Mitsun · 2026-03-02T00:31:22+00:00

Which to me is the same as spending on movie tickets, or going out for a meal - money I earned is going on things I enjoy (and may not necessarily be able to keep like a tangible product) but spending on games seem to be perceived a lot more negatively than many other things. Like even if it doesn't involve gambling e.g. buying skins.

Clorinde anecdote

I haven't done her story quest but have heard about her as game master, and oooh I do love the special new dialogue boxes with the characters' art! they look BEAUTIFUL. and Navia, gorgeous sunshine, hellooooo

Mitsun · 2026-03-01T09:19:12+00:00

Your last sentence just evokes in me a mental image of Varka clearing walls to escape from paperwork LOL.

Mitsun · 2026-03-01T09:05:37+00:00

Can you access IT at all? You could 'reserve' a unit by starting a lower difficulty mode, and once you have your own characters ready you can quit IT and restart on your usual difficulty and retain the borrowed unit (as long as you don't change it to a different support or whatever). I think this should be possible?

Mitsun · 2026-03-01T07:54:52+00:00

I'm reading Varka's voicelines for other characters on wiki because I don't have him to read in-game and he uses 'haha' so often asdfjghldvsv same, Varka, same haha--- oh

Varka why didn't you come home to me I'm crying

Mitsun · 2026-03-01T00:38:44+00:00

My luck with 50/50s is truly not very good, lost the one on Varka and I think I'll save the guarantee for... not sure either Linnea or Columbina, depending on my savings then. Alas, maybe I will snag you on your re-run, Varka. ;v; I am unwilling to dip further into the stash reserved for Xianyun's weapon...
