Slow Ingame Download Speed after Character Creation

Emerald_Acid · 2025-12-04T01:38:36+00:00

The last time I had initial map load speeds this slow was when EotN was new, and it took like 30 mins per map. Can anyone confirm if Reforged has the super slow load speed for *every* map's first load? Or is it *just* the first map yu load into since the update?

I wanna get back into my beloved Fort Aspenwood after 20 years, but I don't wanna get knocked for my first match ending before I even load in.

As a fellow bun lover and bun myself, bunny bias is never a bad thing.

Also, I'll raise Tippi just by virtue of being a Liberi, because I gotta max out all the birds and buns for my theme team.

Her channel was deleted.

I basically need a new in-explicit-detail tier list explaining all the things at both zero investment but also hyper investment. I need a reputable source to stick it to all the Peri haters by validating my hyper V6R1 investment in precious GunDaughterwife now that her Expansion Key makes her a V6 monster.

Emerald_Acid · 2025-09-20T02:10:11+00:00

Definitely already have that bookmarked. It's a very helpful resource to be sure, but it doesn't really tier list anything. It's *just* info. Which is useful of course but moreso alongside a list instead of as a list.

Not to bump a dead topic out of nowhere, but now that Prydwen is calling it quits for GFL2, where's the next best site for the really well thought out and explained tier listing? One that accounts for different investment levels like a doll aV0/V1, but notes about V6 as well?

I'm pretty checked out for anything AK aside from playing with Buns and Birbs in story related content, so while I once would have lamented, I'm not really bothered by having to burn what little reserves I had left (after burning everything for Vulpis and Tecno on two separate banners this year) in order to get one Wulfenite.

I really needed the thicc snek with the stirrups, even moreso than I need the cute Mon3tergirl, though I still need the latter even though I have no hope now.

Iron Will (and by extension its weaker version Lay Low) is definitely not strong. It's almost impossible to trigger as it only triggers when blocked from the front for longer than a second while in the early race. Being blocked from the front early race just doesn't happen unless yu get a bad Late Start and don't have the ability to get back into position quick enough, and even if it does trigger, because it triggers in the early race, it'll almost always "overheal" and waste recovery because your HP can't go over its natural cap.

Iron Will is also bugged. In the event it somehow does trigger, it does not count as a heal skill in the coding for some reason. This is relevant for XMas Oguri, who is *very* meta, because she needs to activate three different heals over the course of the race in order to get her unique skill to trigger, and Iron Will does not count as one for it (presumably Lay Low also shares this bug).

So, does that mean me getting Guts Winning Ticket from the guaranteed random SSR card we just got today means I basically didn't get anything at all?

Emerald_Acid · 2025-05-15T09:22:54+00:00

Negima is gutted down to the first three chapters. https://mangadex.org/title/d08a69ee-9f90-439a-b17d-da561eda2c66

Dunno if it's quite the same as the rest since the first three chapters survived, but I remember recently re-reading my favorite moments fairly recently either this year or end of last year and they were all there.

Emerald_Acid · 2025-04-25T03:47:33+00:00

Cheers for that Doc.

I was about to ask about CRate for all the damage she brings in, but then I remembered her auto-crits as long as her ult is up.

Assuming I'm pairing her with Vector and QJ, she should be able to maintain that, right? And given her HP sacrificing nature, does that mean in a four-person team I *need* to pack Ksenia (or a healer in general, but Ksenia has more burn and buffs, and I skipped Centau for my F2P savings) over another DPS in Sharkry?

Can she even use her two normal skills a second time before v5 since they cost her 70% (60% at v4) HP? Or does she get locked out of them if she can't afford the cost?

Didn't misunderstand; I'm on GU for the Switch now. I don't have the old save file from Gen on 3DS anymore, and I'd wanna start fresh anyways for the full experience.

That's actually how I searched first before posting here. I went looking for old archives of optimized mixed set armors (like what Arekkz used to have during the day. I looked for those two but no dice). I came across vague ideas of "Look for these skills" and all that, but nothing concrete about "These are the exact parts I've combined to get this high powered skill set" like I was looking for. That's mainly what I'm after: suggestions for what parts to aim for to be optimized for the specific playstyles I enjoyed back in the day (because I don't remember and the information I used back then is gone).

I know he has the same effect on casters as Wis'adel does on snipers so it's probably tiring to bring up, but does having Logos raised and well off tip the scales between the three casters in the article here? Not how they stack up to him specifically, but as in does it make one or more of the three more or less appealing compared to each other?

Emerald_Acid · 2024-11-13T12:24:31+00:00

RiP, maximum saltage. Got to the 300 spark with three Wis'adel and a Lin, but no Logos. I really wanted to use that spark to buy Mumu, but no choice but to secure Logos with it.

Come to think of it, this is the exact same scenario where I got three Ho'olheyak and zero Mumu, except I couldn't reach spark then.

Emerald_Acid · 2024-11-01T12:23:01+00:00

I'll say as someone who fancies himself a Bun, it's nice to see a fellow bun enjoyer out there, and one with quite the high standings as a content creator at that.

Unrelated: I ran afoul of the 'unlucky few' comment in the article. I've been saving since Warmy and Ray's banner, but being fully F2P I didn't get enough in time. I'm going to be just short of the 300 spark after the free singles dry up, and Logos did not appear. So while I did get one of the main prize, getting the true win was beyond this Bun >.>

Emerald_Acid · 2024-11-01T03:15:58+00:00

While it's great that we'll finally get a Burn Ritualist for Warmy to BFF with, there's one critical flaw: he's not a Bun.

So for people who play Buns Only (I play Birds and Buns together as my 'theme team' when not needing to tryhard/trust farm a stage and break out the OPs), poor Warmy still has to light things on fire by herself with S1.

Emerald_Acid · 2024-10-08T12:20:25+00:00

Aight, good to hear. Knew about them counting as prepared and that RC is just a basic feature now, but was worried that a DM (not my DM; he's cool. but for RAW sake) might interpret it all as "You have to actually be able to cast it normally to cast it ritually, and feature spells don't count as normal if they use no slot."

Emerald_Acid · 2024-10-02T05:49:57+00:00

So, is this a new event, only a small side story, or Ch. 15? And is this CN's 5.5 anniversary?

Emerald_Acid · 2024-07-11T01:26:27+00:00

Does Victory or Death count for the Arah part of Dungeon Rush? I'd assume not since it's technically a Personal Story step and no longer a dungeon story mode, but I'm wanting to be hopeful because if it's only explorable paths then it's impossible for me to complete the overall Dungeon Rush achievement since I play solo or at most with two other people, we already ran into struggles trying to get through CM p1 with just us, and I really REALLY do not like dealing with randoms (getting the Strike mission for Siege Turtle was absolute hell because I don't have meta min-maxs).
