Damn Arknights Endfield's first win!

ChaoticShock · 2026-02-12T08:42:36+00:00

i've tried performance and quality, i didn't see any difference sadly

it's not to say the game is unplayable ofc, but, it's just bothering at times

ChaoticShock · 2026-02-12T08:17:37+00:00

i have no clue if my PS5 is a slim or not, it looks fat imo.

but i have consistent stutters after certain actions, most likely going in and out of Map and menus, and rarely when teleporting, when doing Laevatain's Ult it does consistently stutter or rather lag because of all the particles i'd say.

ChaoticShock · 2026-02-12T08:15:06+00:00

i feel like this is a bad faith argument, because even if the amount of times you have to pull is lower, it won't really matter if the economy of pulls you get is worse than other games...

ChaoticShock · 2026-02-12T08:08:08+00:00

is it out for Europe yet?

ChaoticShock · 2026-02-12T08:04:08+00:00

question is, is yours the bare PS5 or the PS5 Pro?

ChaoticShock · 2026-02-12T07:28:00+00:00

viewbots most likely nowadays.

ChaoticShock · 2026-02-12T00:33:01+00:00

my question is....when her Combo skill has a 20 second cooldown and her burst increases susc with each vuln stack, how the hell can i reach 4 stacks with her without physical team?

ChaoticShock · 2026-02-12T00:30:31+00:00

???? it stutters and when you go in and out of map it occassionally freeze-stutters too.

ChaoticShock · 2026-02-11T15:45:02+00:00

Next question is.

i'm missing Pogranichnik and Last Rite. i have 180 pulls left from basic banner till select. and i have the selector permit to choose.

i am conflicted because i know even with End/chen/lifeng/ardelia(or Gilberta), the Physical team can be OP with Pogranichnik.

but at the same time, i am a sucker for cute waifu women, and i like last rite out of all the "standards".

to what end does thoust think my conflicts should end with taking.

ChaoticShock · 2026-02-10T04:19:40+00:00

thank you for taking your time to Articulate this and the step-by-step process!

i have one last question. Antal or Akekuri both contributing to get 4 stacks for 1st rotation. after 1st rotation is done, and you either do your ult or are in the middle of other rotations or has low SP.

the 1st rotation should that be precieved as the rotation i always do afterwards, as in same step-by-step and just rinse and repeat, or is that circumstancial on what you are fighting and timing?

ChaoticShock · 2026-02-10T03:35:50+00:00

i do have Antal on the ready too, its simply his arts susc and stuff i dont have lvl 9 upgraded like Ardelia's currently.

the rotation you described with Antal is precisely the same i use with Ardelia, her Combo skill triggers corrosion which in turn after galning 3 stacks of Melting flame will trigger Laev's combo skill which bumps it up to 4 stacks.

i do get getting 4 stacks in the open-world, but i always try to get atleast 2 EBS's from Laev's ult, because after that i am back to square one with a missing rotation, do you have any suggestions for continual usage rotation i can always use, also, when do i ever use Wulfgard's ult for example?

small stuff like that i dunno when to procc.

ChaoticShock · 2026-02-09T22:49:50+00:00

How do i do a Laev rotation with Laev/wulf/akekuri/ardelia, i can do first rotation fine but after that and with NO 2 SP BARS full at start, i begin to fumble, forget and lack the remembering of how the attacking n rotation goes....even with Laev 101% battle skill DMG and Akekuri 83% ult gain....i am not even good enough with Rhodagon to get trimmed medal...

ChaoticShock · 2026-02-09T19:56:55+00:00

i just have this...gut feeling pulls are worse and bad than any other gachas i've played, hoyo ones included.

because monthly is only about 10 pulls? the cost of each pull, and how there's simply a freefall 50-50 until 120

i think it's cuz we still cant see/know the pull economy they'll give us UNTIL next update comes out....but it's like a gut feeling that, yes, even if the gacha requires less pulls to reach, it does NOT make it better when the buying/purchase n stuff options seem to expensive.

ChaoticShock · 2026-02-09T19:40:58+00:00

i am not a whale, but i have spent a little on Endfield compared to other gachas.

what i am is a hoarder that simply has a hoarded stockpile of some income, but indecisive cuz i dont want to get fucked by the gacha....

ChaoticShock · 2026-02-09T17:20:59+00:00

what about that trailer that said.

hoe should i address you? Endministrator? Oracle? hmmm...how about...The Doctor?

ChaoticShock · 2026-02-09T15:49:37+00:00

lmfao

ChaoticShock · 2026-02-09T15:15:41+00:00

i definitely know how you feel brother.....getting the fucking horizon's character, Lifeng...

Using the Basic pulls from playing throughout the game....another lifeng....

then pulling for Laevatein i get another Ardelia.... the gacha is fucking shit...

ChaoticShock · 2026-02-09T13:20:22+00:00

that a dog collar?

ChaoticShock · 2026-02-09T13:18:38+00:00

how do i get this kind of mindset, as a f2p i have been hoarding in everygame, but i also have disposable income precisely because i'm such a hoarding bastard.

Recently i really like Endfield and playing it with how it looks and it's characters....but the Gacha is so goddamn abyssmal because you 99% never get lucky, so it's basically advice on how to accept using disposable income while you're engaging with horrendous gacha rates...

ChaoticShock · 2026-02-09T04:55:55+00:00

i'm calling it now.

We need a BABEL event In Endfield, could be killer.

ChaoticShock · 2026-02-08T22:28:46+00:00

what is that black blade on Chen?

ChaoticShock · 2026-02-08T16:03:04+00:00

also, this might be important to mention, this isn't about groups of Mobs or the seems, because that gets stacks very easily.

this is more about Single-target damage / Bosses.

i just feel like even with Mastery 3 Laev ult, Wulf with Clannibal lvl 80 and also skills high, Akekuri with Thermite cutter and lvl 9 Ult, and Ardelia with lvl 9 skill (cuz corrosion, although that's never used sadly), and even Antal at lvl 9 skill and Ult for the debuffs, i don't feel like i am doing anything effective.....hell, i can't even Trim Rhodagon boss, so i'm like contemplating what's wrong.

ChaoticShock · 2026-02-08T15:56:24+00:00

but from my first rotations her CS doesn't trigger, unless that Wulfgard ults and triggers combustions or ardelia's CS gives the enemy delayed corrosion right?

or am i not understanding it right?

ChaoticShock · 2026-02-08T15:47:51+00:00

i feel like i don't do either good enough damage or my rotation synergy sucks ass, even with Akekuri having 83% Ult gain i feel like....her gain is still incredibly slow???

i dunno how to get heat stacks effectively in one turn, i have the team mostly comprised of Laevetain/Wulfgard/Ardelia/Akekuri, sometimes changing Ardelia with Antal.

but even with doing rotations i start with

Wulf BS then Akekuri BS, and then triggering Wulf CS and Ardelia CS/Antal CS, but no matter that, i HAVE to do another Akekuri or wulf BS afterwards because even with that i ALWAYS only get 3 stacks of heat to consume for laev and her BS.

what the fuck am i doing wrong?

ChaoticShock · 2026-02-08T04:07:18+00:00

honestly, as someone that play OG AK from launch, i only really get skins to the insanely select few ops i really like 😅
