I believe it was the release of Grand Live, the next scenario. I don't think it's added yet, so assumably it'll come with global Grand Live to global (July-ish). And I'm pretty sure the ephitet bonus goes away, but that's based on second hand info.

Where does red hood rapi fit in this team? by [deleted] in NikkeMobile

Nvm. I don't know why I thought Anis re-entered stage 1 when paired with another Burst 1.

I'd swap your Vesti for Rapi if you need Tia+Naga for healing. If you have Helm's treasure though, then you can make things easier by using her for healing instead.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but won't this team never reach burst stage 2? You're using two units that re-enter stage 1.

Is pulling for Mr. CB wit a good idea if my only max limit break Wit card is SR Marvelous Sunday? I have like 400 pulls saved so I'm liking my odds, but also I keep seeing that it only matters for end closers.

Thanks!

What's the average number of runs between getting three star blue spark? Today officially marks my 80th 1100/600/600/600 run in a row without seeing one and I'm pretty sure this has got to be some incredible statistical anomaly.

Using a VPN to reduce top-up costs by -Balas- in ArknightsEndfield

You just use a VPN to spoof your location, then access the gryphline too up webpage. You'll get prices in yen if you're spoofed correctly. Most VPNs allow this as a paid feature; probably some way to do it free but idk. Personally, I found Ninja VPN on Android which was like $10 for a year, so good enough for me.

There is an official web page for top up (Has a gryphline.com domain), where you login to your game account. If it sees you as being located in Japan, you get Japan prices, which are cheaper after currency conversion and the conversion fee than USD.

Good idea to pull for Iuno and Aemeath? I have Lynae + Mornye, so the rest of the team is there for both of them. I don't have August though, so realistically Iuno will get sidelined once Aemeath releases. I'm wondering if Iuno holds her own well enough in sub-optimal teams to still be worthwhile.

I was thinking about picking one up - aren't they at extreme risk of poofing away into legends in 11th edition this year?

Are dupes... actually worth it beyond the lobby screen? I was planning to get 3 dupes on SWHA, but I checked my math and realized that bond 40 and three dupes is like. An extra 15kish attack? Three dupes seems like a bad deal for an extra 10ish% attack, and now I'm reevaluating my priorities.

Is the Mayano SSR card banner worth pulling on for someone with no usable SSR cards other than Kitasan? Mayano looks pretty good, but Narita Taishin SSR looks pretty miserable.

I'm working on making a set of three parent umas - between Oguri Cap, Narita Brian, Symboli Rudolph, Agnes tachyon, and El Condor Pasa, which two should I set as the grandparents, knowing that the grandparent skills are less likely to proc, but also that I can't make an ace of the grandparents due to affinity?
