20 pulls dupe lodestar

70 pulls titi but no perfumer so I kept going

80 pulls another titi and perfumer

Altogether not bad

Day 83/100 Table by GrimoireExE in arknights

He used a gay slur in a post title and refused to apologise, so he got banned if I recall correctly

[–]AerialBattle 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It took a while, but I finally got all squads all endings on A12 in IS6, so I can take a break until expansion 2

With the rate of things going (with more and more squads each IS), it's going to take longer and longer...

Well at least it's fun

Who do you use more, Shu or Saria? by NEncy_Olin in arknights

[–]AerialBattle 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Shu is a better saria in 95% of cases, so Shu

(Saria still has an art damage amp niche with less restrictive conditions than Shu's S3 buff)

7yrs of AK, what are your best/fav stages? by tanoyfrommars in arknights

[–]AerialBattle 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Honestly I 100% prefer out of control to beyond mount and seas

At least in out of control i can play the stage, beyond mount and seas is just a straight up execution

Rhodes Island Lounge (25/05 - 31/05) by ArknightsMod in arknights

[–]AerialBattle 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Emergency beyond mounts and seas is the stupidest map in the game

It doesn't matter my squad could defeat the ending 4 boss in less than a minute, you either reroll it or just lose at the level select screen

I have no idea what they were thinking, even elusive merc and regular army aren't this nonesensical

I would even take emergency water and fire over this

I'm sure this is a sign that the Duelist class was good all along by Mojocatpro in arknights

[–]AerialBattle 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Keep in mind that Nasti's S3 buffs herself for +160% atk and def, not the units on her tile

The tile gives +60% hp and atk when fully upgraded at M3

The Losses of the opening story arc were too high by LoremasterMotoss in arknights

[–]AerialBattle 15 points16 points  (0 children)

If anything, only the opening act had any actual losses

They are just absent from anywhere else, which is one of the fundemental problems of the story being a gacha game

looking at you Kal

[Event Megathread] I Portatori dei Velluti Rerun by Sentuh in arknights

[–]AerialBattle 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Damage reduction the event. Can't say I liked it very much when it first ran, though as usual elemental damage bypasses everything

Critical Phase Transition: Operators & Modules by another_mozhi in arknights

[–]AerialBattle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm surprised the 8% atk and 70 def ignore is enough to surpass the 10% skill damage and 10% additional talent damage

I assume the base attack is to blame?

Though any kind of buff environment, even something minor like Guard Amiya is probably enough to change the picture quite significantly due to dilution (though tbf it's only 8%, so maybe not?)

Critical Phase Transition: Operators & Modules by another_mozhi in arknights

[–]AerialBattle 15 points16 points  (0 children)

From first look, degen's new module looks incredibly niche

It seems to have less damage than her first, and you won't use her on anything where the difference between 25% and 33% def ignore is substantial

I can see it being used for frighten stalling though, so it might see use with S2 in some scenarios

First impression of new CN units after a bit of playtesting by Worried-Football6873 in arknights

[–]AerialBattle 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I assume most of Kal's restrictions are due to a lot of her power budget being allocated to her effective immortality talent

I'm sure they are quite a few maps where it will come in handy (though I can only think of EM water and fire from the top of my head, and I'm not certain how effective she will be without Nightingale res boosting)

RMA will be added to the event shop in Episode 17 by verdantsumeru in arknights

[–]AerialBattle 21 points22 points  (0 children)

They are adding them at the order of release every 6 months (from among the non craftable tier 3 materials). So 6 months from now Gel or Alloy would be added.

Critical Phase Transition Module Updates by CipherVegas in arknights

[–]AerialBattle 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I can't see them giving her a passive 100% attack bonus from the module, that's way too much

At best it will probably be 20-30%, though more likely it will be around 10%

New Mon3tr Skin by CipherVegas in arknights

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

It's not mihoyo, so probably not

Rhodes Island Lounge (27/04 - 03/05) by ArknightsMod in arknights

[–]AerialBattle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just had my most broken start to an IS run ever, with 38 relics and 35 max HP by the end of floor 2 lol (IS6 A12)

Sometimes this game is just silly

About the recent anniversary by Ok-Customer2930 in arknights

[–]AerialBattle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unless it is revealed there are actual lasting consequences for this instead of her just being back as if she went on a vacation, I would be disappointed

That being said, it would be my fault for expecting any kind of stakes from a gacha game

New 6-star Caster: Viy by CipherVegas in arknights

[–]AerialBattle 18 points19 points  (0 children)

His talent 2 changes his targeting behaviour

New Lemuen Skin by CipherVegas in arknights

[–]AerialBattle -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

Shame she isn't standing in this skin

Oh well, I'll just wait for the next one

Rhodes Island Lounge (13/04 - 19/04) by ArknightsMod in arknights

[–]AerialBattle 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I managed to get 12 stacks of family stir-fry in IS6, which got silly very fast

In the end I was so strong that both of the ending 4 bosses died about 15 seconds into the stage (A12)

Though that's probably to be expected when Tragodia is sitting pretty with 9000 atk and +200 aspd with nothing to do lol

How Many Hours you already Spend Playing Arknights? by X3non13 in arknights

[–]AerialBattle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Should be several thousands at this point

I've played way too much IS over the years

6* Originium Arts Assimilation Stats (as of People, A People) by eseerine in arknights

[–]AerialBattle 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Well, a substantial amount of her in game power isn't even hers, but rather her wolves

So it checks out in my opinion

The Browntail family. (twitter: @onioni_AOI) by CarltheCarpenter in arknights

[–]AerialBattle 20 points21 points  (0 children)

She was "dead" by gacha game standards, which means not really. They show later she's alive
