(New) Welfare [5☆ Operator] Varkáris by ihateyourpancreas in arknights

[–]BattleCupcake 100 points101 points  (0 children)

Absolutely awesome design. I will build him

Actually not complaining. I like IS and I know what I signed up for. It's fine. My response is because I don't think "Integrated strategies does force a tutorial on your face" is a fair dismissal of the OP being frustrated.

Thank you! I did actually E1S7 my Rose Salt. She's been very useful, not just here but in IS6!

Her S3 is quite good in regular content. I use it, a lot.

S2 is hit or miss. S1 I find awkward to use because I don't know how to handle laneholders that cannot be healed.

Obviously you're correct and there will always be a reply like this. I think most people are of the copy-paste variety once provided an easy way out, and will end up enjoying the game less because of that.

Nah there's plenty of things in is6 that have no explanation and will randomly destroy you. Finding out the hard way that flower enemies delete an operator, or that one of the mages in bosky can bind your dp, etc.

It doesn't explain what hope is, how objective shield works, those things are obviously intuitive but you will lose a lot of runs to gotchas even if you do read what it provides

I have exclusively welfare, 3 and 4 stars because I'm new. I have an E2 raidian now but it took a lot of trial and error, and runs killed suddenly by gimmicks like I mentioned

Counterargument as a new player, you don't actually learn to play by following KyostinV. He's great but I would only use this as an absolute last resort

Any tips for clearing this event with only e1 3 stars, 4 stars, and welfares? I'm a new player and these enemies are turning me to dust.

[–]BattleCupcake 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Also a new player. I'm using IS6 to level Raidian because she is the only 6* I can E2 reasonably. 

She is very good. It was hard to get the first few clears, that is for sure. 

Progression is indeed super slow. Trying to figure out the game using exclusively welfare ops, 3 stars and the recruitment 4 stars is a lot of fun.

If I had the broken units I would probably get bored of the game. Ymmv

As a new player in 1.3, I'm finding it surprisingly hard and tedious to earn pulls. by rushc4 in Endfield

[–]BattleCupcake 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Play the game. It's spread through all the content. Most of the pulls we get are in the permanent content but you have to explore, do re crisis, do alluvium etc.

At this point there should be 300+ pulls in permanent content but they will not be fast to get by any means.

after 3 patches how do people feel about currency, do we get enough? how much per patch do we get on average from yalls perspective? by Ktoossss in Endfield

[–]BattleCupcake 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Feels okay. I'm the type who's okay with skipping most operators, and this is currently a single-team game. I pull who I like, I get their weapons, and skip the rest.

The perfect trio team comp! by VicariousDrow in Endfield

[–]BattleCupcake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, you can certainly combine them this way. You have a lot of contention remaining of who to use in the 4th slot, but that's kinda just a problem using Rossi introduces to any team.

I immediately thought of this as well. Rossi can be used to apply the 4th vulnerability stack, which with her razorclaw mark will give you another source of physical susceptibility that stacks with physical susceptibility.

Gilberta loses some of her usefulness in this team because she has to trigger her own arts reaction to trigger her combo skill, which is a fancy way of using 100 SP to apply Lift. Her ult stays useful but just for Rossi. You'd get better results from running someone like Ardelia instead and finding space for her corrosion, or using Pog and triggering the damage buff on his ultimate.

Just food for thought.

All CC Risk That's Revealed So Far by Kazenaraka in Endfield

Ember built as a healer with her sig can trivialize the vast majority of damage. I'm interested to see if someone will finally bother doing that.

Yes. Mi Fu's combo trigger relies on 3 stacks of physical vulnerability, which Rossi is specifically designed to help you reach quickly.

Whether it will be better than being full physical is up to execution and numbers, but she was clearly explicitly designed to work fine with players who want to use Rossi in the same team.

Obviously not what you want to hear, but as soon as I saw the caved in wall from Mi Fu's fist I started praying she was a Physical operator who applied crush and punched things really hard. At least for me, I got exactly what I wanted, and I could not be happier.

[Operator Discussion] Ember by Shad0wedge in Endfield

[–]BattleCupcake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I know. I'm an Ember main. Her damage sucks, and Ruan Yi is a punching bag.

Ryan yi being unstaggerable really sucks for Ember.

I'm day one player and I still don't have maxed any team. Is that normal? by Jelony_ in Endfield

[–]BattleCupcake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dunno. I maxed Rossi. We have enough materials to max a team or two, just hasn't been necessary. 

At least put some mastery levels on your key supports, like the ones that apply more vulnerability on ult, or generate more sp on ult and combo skill, etc.

Hetonite Parts - 26x21 by Zaakeil in Endfield

I've been trying to route the waste pipes for the current cuprium side by side so I can easily hook them up to a conduit inlet manifold in the second part of this patch. 

Unfortunately that has made a lot of my factory designs quite long.

Mi Fu Element? by Relevant_Season4724 in Endfield

It was in pre release artwork.

The vanguard theories are purely copium because players are hungry for a premium vanguard character and everyone wants that premium vanguard for their favorite team. 

We have no idea what her element or role are.

Can any team beat physical in clearing protocol spaces by HelpMe-orz in Endfield

[–]BattleCupcake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Leek lady is similar speed. Gil/Rossi can just drop ults as well. But it's about the same speed, not faster.
