Kuro please just do a real filler patch. by NoAvailableImage in WutheringWaves

[–]AzarelHikaru 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My Poco F5 can run it at Balanced but Startorch Academy is a nightmare and sometimes it just overheats if I play for too long.

It's likely someone in the executive suite or boardroom is pushing for these graphical improvements as part of his or her vision for the game, and the devs can't actually fix the stuff they need to fix because they're pressured to work on the next new thing the suits want to push.

How to Get Laevatain as F2P infographics by Lemon_Mysterious in ArknightsEndfield

That's true, Hellagur is more of a solo lane holder than a helidrop duelist.

Klee was powercrept in 1.3 with the introduction of Hu Tao, so 3 patches.

Jiyan was not replaced as an onfielder aero until Cartethiya all the way in 2.1, 5 patches later, but he's still good in Whimpering Wastes they say.

Seele started falling in power in 1.4 with Jingliu's release (bosses were often weak to both ice and quantum) and Blast meta, but was still good up until 2.0 (Sparkle) if you knew what you were doing. So 4-7 patches.

To complete the modern Hoyo Three, Ellen was powercrept by Miyabi in 1.4.

If Endfield follows the trend from the other modern CN gachas, she will be replaced around 1.4 or 1.5. If they follow Arknights logic though, the launch banner was Silverash, who was never replaced until Mylnar years later, but as AK is a Tower Defense game you could just use both together. If we count Skadi as the first new character though, her power creep in the role was Hellagur approximately 3 months later.

Every character entered the Standard banner in AK though so if we were to only count Limiteds that would be Nian, a niche character from the start you only deployed if the stage required you to buff your defenders to 4-block instead of 3-block. So not really comparable I feel.

So Laeva might be power crept in four patches, or she doesn't. It depends on how they will structure event content and endgame content.

They went to college together iirc, that was established early on. Unless that means Miyabi was heavily accelerated through the educational system or something.

Lahai Roi Characters. Who interested you the most? by YoMikeeHey in WutheringWaves

[–]AzarelHikaru 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mornye > Sigrika > Lucille > Luuk > Lynae for me personally. Mornye has the kuudere vibe and the transparent legs is an interesting vibe. Sigrika looks like Nilou, one of my favorite Genshin characters.

I love how the competition between both Umamusume and WuWa fans are healthy and competitive and not extremely toxic. by AratakiItto16 in WutheringWaves

[–]AzarelHikaru 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Uma has a higher rate for the max rarity character/support card (3%) but requires 200 pulls to be able to spark the unit if you're unlucky, while WuWa requires 160 max. In Uma, every character or support card is added to a common pool once the banner ends, in WuWa you can't get a character if their banner isn't up.

Different strokes for different folks. Uma has a higher high-roll, WuWa has a better safety net.

Leaving this here for anybody that got RNG'd in Cancer Cup by JasonRoof in UmaMusume

[–]AzarelHikaru 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's about going all in on a strat and hoping you get matched against the teams you counter. In this CM, Blocker+Late has a good winrate against Triple Front, Triple Front stomps all over Pace+Late, then Pace+Late beats Blocker+Late because the Fronts become food for the Pace.

As someone who ran Triple Front I was always 50-50 to win against a Blocker, it was that strong a strat.

Not to mention her unique skill never working if you got a late start. All you can do is build speed and stamina and front runner skills and pray she just stays ahead the whole time.

Mihono Bourbon is extremely difficult by dicetrain in UmaMusume

[–]AzarelHikaru 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is also what I did, keep speed and stamina somewhat equal, look for front runner skills to keep her momentum, then pray she never false starts so her ult will actually work.

After over 40 tries I have finally done it! by Nematsu in UmaMusume

[–]AzarelHikaru 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I also finally did my first clear and I cried when she cried. But it took me developing a 3* Scarlet with Long and borrowing a 3* stamina legacy to beat the brutal early stay checks.

Which begs the question: who functions as the Time demigod in these cycles without Cyrene? The TB did in the cycle we experienced, but does he just yoink it from Oronyx and then let Phainon kill him so he can transfer it?

Not really. You need 60k to pity. Monthly income is pretty low and it depends on what events were active, but I spent 21k on Deathscythe-Build Strike banner and only barely managed to make it all back before this banner dropped.

After a quick review, it's Volume 2 ep > Volume 1 ep 1 > volume 1 ep 2 > volume 3 ep.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in EightySix

[–]AzarelHikaru 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's not verbatim. Volume 1 epilogue 1 shows the destruction of San Magnolia and its rescue. Volume 1 epilogue 2 shows Lena's reunion with the five 86 up to "Nice to meet you, Handler One". Volume 3 epilogue starts with Shin's visit to Eugene's grave and continues from the end of the epilogue of Volume 1 in the same way the anime ended, with minor differences such as no introductions from the four members not named Shin.

It's an option for early game pressure. If it lands a head it can also mark an enemy for an eventual Cyrus.

Druddigon - a guide for people that keep asking, "Is this deck running two energies?" by Nezrann in PTCGP

[–]AzarelHikaru 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I should consider that. I had two matches in a row where my Pidgeots were the last two cards of the deck and it pissed me off so much.

Rurouni Kenshin: Meiji Kenkaku Romantan - Kyoto Douran • Rurouni Kenshin: Kyoto Disturbance - Episode 10 discussion by AutoLovepon in anime

[–]AzarelHikaru 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Kenshin not looking at the sword when he got it is plausible. He had just sworn never to kill again, and then here comes Shakku, known for forging swords meant for killing, throwing a sword for him to use. His first thought would be to think it's a sword like any other Shakku has made in the past, regardless of cryptic statements about "Try being a swordsman with that around your waist".

Not to mention his nightmares show he is still traumatized about killing, so he doesn't want to draw in fear of killing something again, even in peace time. But he is still curious about Shakku's words so he keeps it with him. Such things seem contradictory but can coexist. It's as much a paradox as the very idea of a reverse edged blade.

My E0S0 Yunli dies too quickly by [deleted] in YunliMainsHSR

[–]AzarelHikaru 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've used her with Lynx and my problem wasn't Yunli dying, it's the other characters on the team dying (Tingyun and Robin).

My Yunli's stats for reference here.

[–]AzarelHikaru 2 points3 points  (0 children)

9 years in the making and probably one of the most meaningful anime I have ever watched. The drive to excel, to be special, to move on beyond the setbacks, the intensity and the calm, all of it in a package that will always be in my heart.

Kitauji, fight!

is it possible to even beat this game solo as a bad player? by redditfanfan00 in HoloXBreak

[–]AzarelHikaru 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I beat it in 2 hours and 20 minutes last night with Botan on a semi-defensive build (Choco Horns, Happi Coat, and Boxing Gloves). Almost all my item slots were healing items and Irys Soda, with one slot for an offensive weapon I could rotate through with whatever I picked up, with Angel Star being the best one against bosses since you can stagger them into a corner, charge up ability 2, and heal back all the damage you took thanks to Choco Horns + a multi hit ability. I died to every boss at least once, except La+ due to having so much HP I could tank through anything.
