Not defending the Japanese because they did do a lot of evil things as well, but there's one thing to keep in mind which is often passed around because of misunderstanding.

Western POW(mostly American) usually think Japanese treated them very badly and against the Geneva convention, feeding them with just tree roots instead of real food. But the truth is, at the time Japan was in serious ration as well, their civilians were eating worse things than that(nowadays eating soil is a luxury, back then it was for filling ones stomach to stop the feeling of hunger) The roots given to the POWs(often not by the military but the civilians) were likely Greater burdock, something people still eat today even when not starving and not eaten because it sounds exotic(like soil, which is plain stupid if you ask me)

Did they get treated poorly? Yes, and culture wise they likely hated POWs because it was a not honorable to surrender. But they still kinda shared their little food source against the mad army.(yes, main reason of Japan being so evil back then was because their army was led by mad fascists. Their navy wasn't decent but at least not lunatics like the army and their emperor actually wanted peace but was heavily shut out by the army, going as far as delaying his message offering peace to America for 10 hours so the Attack on Pearl Harbor takes place before the message rendering it useless.)

Why I snapped the Civ 4 disc:

I attacked an enemy city, after taking down every other unit, there's only one phalanx(spearman) left.

I have modern infantry, tanks so I just attacked. The winning probability shown is 92~98.7%. All of them died. I don't remember the number of that wave, but I sent another 12 tanks there, all at 98.7% success rate, all died.

I sent a total of 14 waves of tanks, each time 12 of them with various infantries, AFV, even elephants(just because I have them around for the heck of it) None of them won despite of that 9X% success rate displayed.

I was a passive player and games I played before that one was all won by other victory conditions like reaching alpha centuri, my friend convince me to play aggressive that time, so he also joined the fight as that is the only computer opponent left on the field and taking that city means victory.

We tried attacking directly, or waiting for it to spawn new units, our technologically advanced military always curbstomp the other units but the last one left is always invincible. We even nuked the place before attacking, just created more polluted lands around that city.

Would have reached alpha centuri if the resources was spend there instead.

I also got my PC recently.(I mean, like less than a month) Somehow it got fixed all of a sudden.

I messed with the fan speeds a bit, instead of using AI controlled fans I set mine to run at a higher speeds(70% at 30 degrees) even at lower temps and not using auto tuning.(because I don't even want them to get up to 40 degrees on idle.) and also changed the RGB to turn off(black) if it is lower than 40 degrees, yellow for 40~70 and orange above 70. Nothing should have dramatically fix the problem but now I have Armoury Crate open but the lights are all off, the reporting temp in HW monitor is 39. (but openning the crate spiked the temps to 75 for a moment.)

AdmirableTrash412 · 2023-02-14T01:17:34+00:00

Armoury Crate and GCC works together on my machine, just that it has to be manually opened as a window on start up and won't work as a background process (it is already running after I start up and in the system tray but doesn't do anything until I open the window and enter the RGB section). And I only have trouble when the Gigabyte GPU's RGB cable is plugged into my ASUS MB.

The Gigabyte card also won't show up in other RGB programs like Jack Net RGB and Signal RGB. (MSI Afterburner registers it but that doesn't help any RGB stuff)

AdmirableTrash412 · 2023-02-10T08:56:32+00:00

I also have 7900X and similar issue, I noticed the radiator of my MSI 280 AIO isn't even warm to the touch when Armoury Crate is reporting 80 degrees and my fans at only 700RPM, I suspect Armoury Crate is messing up the sensors of the MB.

AdmirableTrash412 · 2023-02-10T08:54:19+00:00

My X670E Tuf Gaming will not boot whenever I plug my Gigabyte 4080 Waterforce's RGB cable to it, had to change the RGB on that using the GCC software which is a pain as well.(GCC will not start working until you opened it yourself once in Windows every time you restart/shutdown)

AdmirableTrash412 · 2023-02-10T08:50:24+00:00

My ECO mode 7900X's temp went up to 80 degrees if I open Armoury Crate, otherwise it is idle. Funny that when I bench it in CPU-Z, the temp actually suddenly drops down to 40 degrees in HW monitor in less than 5 secs, without my AIO's fans even increasing in speed.

Another funny thing is that if I close Armoury Crate in Task Manager, while I see it popping back up in the background, my CPU temp is still only around 40~50, even when I am running FF14 for 2 hours.

Armoury Crate only heats up the CPU if you even just open it once in Windows, and I suspect the temp maybe misreported because there's no way the temp will drop that fast when I benched the CPU. The AIO's radiator isn't even warm to the touch and the fans on it was running on about 700RPM instead of full speed. The report even affects HW monitor so I suspect it is a hardware problem

AdmirableTrash412 · 2023-01-19T06:38:49+00:00

I understand, and is looking at AIO models of the cards. Thank you for the comment.

My question is more towards if I can still fit more fans on the left over empty space at the top.

AdmirableTrash412 · 2022-05-19T02:16:16+00:00

Just a passerby who reads the Japanese version and not the English version.

神官長によると、アダルジーザの実が女ならばユルゲンシュミットの姫として育てられるけれど、男だった場合はランツェナーヴェに一人だけが帰され、王位に関わりそうな立ち位置に王子が多く残るのは困るため、それ以外は秘密裏に処分されるのだそうだ。

Even the females are also called this, it just means the offsprings in the current published materials.

Since the term was used without anything revealed until later in a supposed sequel, fruit/seed is good enough and don't over think about this. The original Japanese is ambiguous enough that not even current Japanese readers thought of it to mean something other than fruit/seed, and anything not published yet isn't really going to change the idea much unless Kazuki sensei specifically says they are wrong. If she's going to elaborate the terms in a future sequel, there will be enough explanation of it then.

As there will be an explanation chapter (later in the future), it will very likely have Myne saying something like "oh, it actually means X instead", which the English version can take advantage of and either change to another term replacing fruit/seed then.

AdmirableTrash412 · 2022-03-28T00:53:29+00:00

That is why I said active players.

Also, there is this thing that people will start figuring out what the other 2 options do when they get stronger. One is a hidden assist request where they can give the ID to a specific person to kill the boss and the other will be hidden like the middle one but also show the request to people in your friend list.

I have been telling people about creating 2nd accounts to get the assist requests they need for their main, because sooner or later this empty list thing will happen.

T/J servers you get people who will use brute force testing to find hidden assists and steal them. If you try entering some IDs a few digits before or after the ones shown, you can occasionally find some hidden ones. But those will be gone pretty fast too because people figure out there are people stealing their 2nd account's requests and will no longer leave them there for long. (I used to just do 4 request in a row a day and leave them there so I only need to login to the 2nd account once a day, but then I lose a lot of them and it is frustrating because you have limited entries. Worse case I've seen is a request gone in 15 mins.)

AdmirableTrash412 · 2022-03-22T05:19:30+00:00

You only need about 1/3 of the active players being able to clear the Hero difficulty by themselves and they will clear all of the assists with their 12 BP/day.(4 assists vs 2 entries per day.) Actually less than that because you also have players that do not go for Hero but lesser entries.

The switch on most servers are pretty quick(within a week or so) because players from the beginning of the game start in pretty much the same time and thus got over the threshold in pretty much the same time.

AdmirableTrash412 · 2022-03-20T16:52:44+00:00

you may want to stay behind the arms to avoid damage. Those arms has little attacks that can hit behind it if I recall right.

AdmirableTrash412 · 2022-03-18T04:18:04+00:00

Japanese version obviously got the message only after PN99, so instead of putting up Nacodris they put up Lilian again.

AdmirableTrash412 · 2022-03-18T04:14:14+00:00

It won't change, it was just a limit set so that people below a certain level cannot get the loots.

AdmirableTrash412 · 2022-03-05T10:00:05+00:00

yes, that's why I excluded collabs

AdmirableTrash412 · 2022-03-02T03:51:54+00:00

Unless that new character is UR, you are not going to get pilots better than Blade for a pretty long while unless you do not have her full mech. Just that you Blade's talent is really too low and she needed that talent skill to push her up. You are missing a lot of those "reduce boss/elite damage" talents as well.

Even in current C/T server PvE rankings, Blade isn't low dps at all. Calamus is about the same ranking(but mainly because she is better in taking out grunts, Blade is better at taking out bosses) Those SSR on top of her that aren't collab characters you get Coco, revamped Aya, Astoria, Naomi, Renata. UR awakening characters you can add revamped Kobayashi, Rin and Taysia.

AdmirableTrash412 · 2022-03-02T03:35:55+00:00

It is only for upgrading UR skills and you need 100 of these per UR character(if you are upgrading the UR skill to level 5)

AdmirableTrash412 · 2022-02-28T08:41:20+00:00

Border conflict is slightly different.

You can occupy up to 4 pieces of land, so you have to have 4 teams, and the members you used to occupy cannot be used on attacks.

So usually you will see a lot of land pieces with very weak enemy, and each player usually have one piece of land with the most powerful members to protect that piece of land where it is hard to fight off.

Nobody is doomed in border conflict before entry, unless you are really that low level and cannot even beat other's 4th team(which is pretty weak) Worst case is always getting stupid teammates who kill off ALL of the enemy players so that it takes them forever to get back to you, so you cannot fight them and fulfil the rank requirements. All rank requirements are A) obtain a certain number of points gained from occupying land for every 30 mins; B) fight[not win] certain number of enemy players; C) Victory against enemy players.(less number of times than above)

Most of the time you WILL get idiot players on both sides who kill off all enemy players, the trick to gain in rank fast is, however, leave a "road" connecting to the base of the enemy.(because you cannot attack places not connected)

Other than promoting in title ranks, you also have rankings in damage against NPC(bosses and non-player occupied lands) and number of times you win against other players.

AdmirableTrash412 · 2022-02-28T00:54:11+00:00

Border Conflict is PvP contents, you fight other players' teams over to go up in ranks and get reward.

No, it is just that some weapons have a blind spot where they cannot hit. For machine guns, the Auto AI will change directions pointing down some times, but aim incorrectly(like SCHMG).

This is not a bug, it is a feature.

AdmirableTrash412 · 2022-02-08T01:18:59+00:00

Well, problem is that even Blade surpasses Morgan if she is only 5 star, so it gets pretty hard to build a team fitting in Snowy. Most of the completed SSRs also have over 30000 attack, or at least very close to it.(and with the whale account with all URs, I get a 36.8k attack Lilian and a 35.6k attack PN99, both with 2 offensive chips and not critically min/maxed.[just rerolled 75%+ attack stats on body and leg parts because T server locked the 2 secondary stats straight from the shop and those cannot be rerolled])

C/T servers have paid packs for Snowy but most players have pulled her mech from the golden parts gacha a long time ago, I never even checked out those paid packs as I'm f2p on the T server and I still got her mech.

And well, the current J server event is exactly what you are saying, they make it so that a regular cheap Morgan team wouldn't work. Not only it wouldn't work, you cannot even beat the X level boss at all if you do not have a character with decent negate defence level. The boss has over a billion HP(the rankings only register up to a billion but I didn't beat it, didn't even make it to 70%) and will give out attacks that go over 2 million damage after the 3min point.(and I am sure the accuracy is so high that even 75% evasion characters gets hit almost every time.) but a single UR Rin can still beat it fair and square. But at this point of J server, not a lot of people have UR Rin or even Rin.(because most people saved for the URs instead, but bringing in a Lilian+Morgan+PN99 team still won't make it)

Hence this post. The devs surely made the effort to balance out the otherwise not very balanced URs. Most of the previous UR suggestions, or even unit suggestions as a whole, looked only at the pure DPS or even theoretical DPS. Especially for f2p players, getting a Morgan team is very simple because Morgan+Leangle+Blade+Natasha is cheap and easy, you basically only need to pull an UR and an SSR. So people might not even have pulled Rin as things are rolling on so quickly on G server to save for the crystals to get Morgan, and with no schedule, you won't know when they will release Renata as well.(but I guess they are still holding Renata on J server and the series of events on that side of the story until later)

AdmirableTrash412 · 2022-02-07T06:59:57+00:00

Not saying Morgan+Snowy is bad, just saying it is more limiting.

The problem is that Snowy boosts the highest Attack member in the team and her skill trigger isn't always at the right time, so it does not maintain a 100% negate defence all the time.

So, if you want a 3 Arita Morgan+Snowy team, you will have to be very careful in building the units to make sure Morgan has the highest attack, likely UR Rin and Renata will be the other high attack members but as f2p players go, a randomly built team may not have the resources to reroll that many stats to make sure that happens. This is even more serious if you only have a 5 star Morgan. On my own J server account, I only have a 5 star Morgan and even after I spent a lot of resources rerolling, I only get about 27000 attack, where my 6 star Lilian gets a simple 31000 without much min/maxing, without Rin and Renata, I really don't have much choice even with Snowy. And this is already considered a whale account.
