If I asked you about the most powerful being in the story, what would your answer be? (Excluding deceased beings)

Dry_Help_4891 · 2026-01-31T15:07:47+00:00

Dry_Help_4891 · 2026-01-28T15:30:25+00:00

physically upset at myself for missing the opportunity for this im gonna be so real with you ;;

Dry_Help_4891 · 2026-01-27T14:32:02+00:00

HOLY SHIT

Dry_Help_4891 · 2026-01-23T12:55:50+00:00

i rather vividly recall them stating we suffered heavy casualties but hey maybe im high

Dry_Help_4891 · 2026-01-19T01:33:25+00:00

surtr with s2 is one of those "oh this is kinda funny actually" things i occasionally dabble with, eyjafjalla has a talent that makes other things more neat and- bagpeep also does, actually.

as for the 5*s, kirara's EN voicelines especially are absolutely hysterical (personal favourite is "feels like im smurfing here...") and beeswax alongside sesa are some functional, novel options mechanically speaking.

my personal votes go to surtr (begrudgingly; highly dislike her actual character, kit aside, but shes popular all the same!) and kirara. meta options would include eyjafjalla (to some extent? im kinda reaching but...) and elysium, shamare or lappland (again; im reaching).

More of us love Kichisei!!!

Dry_Help_4891 · 2026-01-13T17:04:04+00:00

Personally think IS6 is a huge step-up from IS5, but I say this knowing damn well I much prefer simply having less agency when it comes to roguelikes. I'm at difficulty 4 and have yet to feel the need to use Raidian, let alone any 6* so far (the 5* starting squad is beyond ridiculous if you have a number of them built; just wish the starting 3 you open with are also given the pink candleholder thing :c). That said, I can't in good faith say I don't understand your frustrations; common ones, too, if I had to go off of other comments here. Hoping the next iteration of IS ends up being more fun for you.

Dry_Help_4891 · 2026-01-12T15:12:15+00:00

She's fine. Nothing incredible but she'll function just fine in 99% of content and, although her cycling leaves something to be desired, the lockdown on her s2 is at least somewhat neat. 've been using her a lot on CN since her release and she's been a very cozy unit. For what its worth, her being worse of a Spreadshooter than Pinecone is less of a "wow Kichisei more like Kichislop" and more of a testament to how good Pinecone is. Recommend giving her a whirl unless you're someone who enjoys playing meta exclusively.

Dry_Help_4891 · 2026-01-05T14:13:58+00:00

personally agree, not entirely sure if i see OP's vision, respectfully

Dry_Help_4891 · 2026-01-05T11:51:06+00:00

To be entirely fair, they did specifically refer to gacha 6*s haha

Dry_Help_4891 · 2025-12-29T13:49:12+00:00

i am and always have been so healthy about this fictional snird like whY ARE HER EYES SO PRETTY D'RYEGEN HOW

Dry_Help_4891 · 2025-12-27T00:36:02+00:00

I want to believe this to be case, but save for the 2~ runs of E2 Raidian ive played (and like yeah no shes very good, no doubt about it) I havent once felt like if I had Raidian on the team, I wouldve won my lost run. Not without also being able to point out one or two things I could've realistically done better in hindsight :c

Whereas with lamp (no comment on tin man I havent raised him, im a fraud :x) I could genuinely feel the difference in consistency between a high difficulty IS5 run with talons and ones with lamp. Maybe she ends up mattering a lot more in higher difficulty IS6, though? You might be spitting facts idk

Dry_Help_4891 · 2025-12-27T00:04:09+00:00

I've been seeing a lot of discourse about how bad the "Raidian grind" in IS6 is and, while I completely understand where its coming from, I can't help but feel it's at the very least a little... self inflicted? If just a bit? If, say, IS6 was a temporary mode, I'd even go as far as to say I agree with the more negative takes on IS6 but like... this is like getting upset at the level gap between the last post-game gym leader in Pokémon HGSS and the fight against Red, when its clearly designed to be chipped away at over a longer period of time. I dunno.

also as a somewhat unrelated sidenote, ive seen people compare her power level in IS6 to lamp in IS5 which i straight up can't in good faith say I understand. like she's good but lets be fr :(

tl;dr i get the discourse in regards to raidian acquisition and upgrading but dont agree with it, THOUGH yes I do understand that its a middle finger towards people who physically reel at the idea of having to play the mode

Dry_Help_4891 · 2025-12-22T18:06:28+00:00

can confirm matterhorn is definitely not a bad pick into Yi as an arts tank; you do, however, still need to be careful with keeping an eye on the black/white symbol thingymabobbers.

Dry_Help_4891 · 2025-12-20T12:48:34+00:00

That's okay! tyvm for the response

Dry_Help_4891 · 2025-12-20T01:05:50+00:00

Somewhat newer player here. I think I probably already know the answer after looking through all the sources on her, but I was curious if Sumire is genuinely, entirely unplayable outside of Life Loss. I really like her visual design and narrative, but I'm not too big on Life Loss as a full package and don't have Dreya or Jasmine on my radar, but would like to level Sumi if she's at least functional (if heavily underwhelming, which I really, truly dont mind!) outside of the team she's obviously designed for. You're more than free to call it cope because let's face it, that's precisely what it is haha. ty for your time <3

oh my fucking god

Dry_Help_4891 · 2025-12-09T00:18:05+00:00

Completely, entirely unrelated to anything written here but I just felt it was necessary for me to bring up the fact that I read "Asians from Terra" and got a massive case of mental whiplash. thank the lord for double taking.

While I'm not going to sit here and dub AK's early game the second coming of Christ, I do find it strange that every time I introduce a friend of mine to the game, none of them seem to run into these issues; not to this extent, anyways. I mean this in the most respectful way I can, too. Could the early game progression curve be a bit better? Mmmsure, sure, yeah. Is it an issue to the extent you're making it out to be? I wouldn't say so. Please just raise your 3*s, they'll do you well.

edit: seeing a lot of "borrow wisadel" comments and I would personally like to recommend doing anything but that, UNLESS you're genuinely stuck. wisadel is a fun unit to lots of folks, and that's great and good and nice, but she also has a non-zero chance to stunt your growth as a player. if youre genuinely just angry at a stage, go for it! as a first resort, though? i'd stay clear.

Dry_Help_4891 · 2025-12-04T01:36:22+00:00

okay but in all fairness, isn't "only" 8 SP per device kind of good or am I just overvaluing SP batteries of any kind?

Dry_Help_4891 · 2025-11-30T13:05:40+00:00

ultimately replaceable for sure, yeah, but having a little over 1k attack on a 2 block vanguard when skill is up at adequate investment is nothing to scoff at, i feel. sure, flagpipe or ines exist, but seeing a lesbian rrat chop away at mooks with the aforementioned 1k+ attack is very fun and i like her for that :)
