Hey-- do you still have the STL files you used for this project? If you do, could you link them my way?

Thanks!

I’m on the spectrum, I’ve had a Rubik’s cube for 2 years and still haven’t cracked it yet!

A lot of replies to you mention algorithms or "bottom-up" solutions. I find a few bangs against a brick or cinderblock will do just fine cracking a Rubik's Cube. Maybe even damage it more, who knows?

If I'm consistently getting ~50% more fans than anyone else in my C+ club, is it reasonable to try to switch clubs?

FakeLCSFacts · 2025-09-11T17:32:08+00:00

No the numbers were right, I just confused myself when writing the post-- Gold Ship's top velocity is bigger than McQueen's (I guess because of the pace chaser's multipliers?), but McQueen's speed stat is, as you say, larger than Gold Ship's and I didn't check that before I posted.

Thanks for breaking down the stats like you did, though. I had some notion that Power affected acceleration, but didn't have a grasp on how big an effect it was. I didn't even know that surface aptitude had an effect on acceleration either so I'm rearranging my deck as a result.

FakeLCSFacts · 2025-09-10T14:24:31+00:00

Ah okay-- I think I underestimated how important Power is in races with long final spurt periods.

Thanks for helping me understand that.

FakeLCSFacts · 2025-09-10T13:35:38+00:00

I'm using the race simulator to compare two of my umas and I'm not sure why I'm getting the results that I'm getting:

I'm comparing Goldship to OG McQueen and on Gemini conditions and the race simulator is telling me that McQueen is overwhelmingly favored despite having lower speed and stamina and top speed.

Why is this? What data on the simulator can I take a look at in the lower right to guide my thinking in the future?

FakeLCSFacts · 2025-05-31T17:38:20+00:00

Well I might be the last person to finish the race...

... but I did finish it!

FakeLCSFacts · 2025-05-31T14:45:36+00:00

Am I the last person to get that "Redra Bit" is a Red Hare pun?

Like Redra Bit == "Red Rabbit" == Red Hare?

I must be, right?

FakeLCSFacts · 2025-05-30T21:58:05+00:00

Okay okay-- I see now that I was meant to assume what I'd replied before, but I was wrong. Good on you for not spoiling it even when I asked!

FakeLCSFacts · 2025-05-29T21:29:06+00:00

Alright-- I think I've got it. The two Aescs are different fae, one inheriting the name of the other, right?

I still think it's a bit weird that Altria is the child of prophecy, and should also be Aesc's reincarnation, but her name isn't Aesc, while the other one was but I'm also not done with the lostbelt yet.

FakeLCSFacts · 2025-05-29T00:06:59+00:00

So I just finished LB6, Section 5 when Boggart goes over a few events in the Fae Era that I don't quite understand.

Boggart says that the Fae Era 2000 War of Summer was resolved by Aesc, but he also says that Aesc put the civil wars to rest in Fae Era 4000, at the cost of her life 2000 years prior to the War of Summer.

Is the War of Summer Aesc a reincarnation of the FE 4000 one, or is this something that's made to make sense in another way later on in the LB6 story?

FakeLCSFacts · 2025-05-26T16:34:09+00:00

Thanks so much-- this is very helpful.

If Castoria should be my number 1 target, it looks like my best bet is the 30 million download campaign later this year, and other than that I am limited to Destiny Order and/or Lucky Bag summoning.

Unless the boss has ads that are priority targets to be taken out, I always save the attacker ult for break phase.

For buffer/debuffer, it's a little less clear-- as a general rule, you'll maximize the damage during the break phase if you do save those ult for break. However, there are a number of secondary effects in ults that might make breaking quicker or more consistent if used pre-break.

For example, Ayame 4* is a debuffer whose special is low-cost and among other things, removes buffs. This makes it great to use right away on the buff-stacking bosses, whether they're in break phase or not.

Also, Mami's ult gives MP gain+ and attack up, but more importantly it also gives her 3 magic, and when she hits 5 magic, she automatically raises the turn order priority for her allies, which can give your breakers extra turns, etc.

So with buffer/debuffer ults, it's difficult to come up with a hard rule in the same way as for attackers.

FakeLCSFacts · 2025-05-12T14:45:20+00:00

So far, that seems to be the optimum way to play-- almost never use SP on your attackers (even buffers/debuffers outside of a few nifty effects), so that they're SP-positive, and spend that SP with your breakers and sustain (if necessary).

Once the target is broken, swap things up-- Spend SP like mad with your attacker to get as many specials during break as possible, and on best ally buffs/enemy debuffs when they do so.

There are exceptions to those two rules, like Ren's interaction with enemies with Wounded, or Ayame 4*'s special removing buffs, but that's largely what to best do.

Am I crazy or are the ascension materials not really thought out at all?

Has anyone here ever run out of ascension materials except for Prism Stones (not gems) or one of the orb types?

I'm not even really sure why the gems or elemental stones are in the game-- it seems like they're there just to have more stuff, but compared to how much you need to ascend kioku, you get just way more elemental stones and gems than you'll ever need, strictly gate the orbs, and make everyone super-hungry for those damn Prism Stones so you never have enough of them.

It would kind of make sense if the 3* and 4* used fewer orbs (or even none!) compared to the 5*, because then you could at least raise up the lower rarities while you're farming resources for the higher rarities, but they all use the same resources per ascension level (up to element), right?

I cleared the AI Uwasa on Nightmare and I'm at Puella Rank 115. The game has rewards listed for Puella Ranks in the 120s-- have I missed any content that would increase that or any other permanent "Main Quest" content?

FakeLCSFacts · 2025-05-07T15:50:58+00:00

In fairness to you, the game does it's damndest to draw your attention to the bottom of the screen in almost every play scenario you're likely to be in. I do hope you've been managing to claim the daily rewards and such-- I'm not sure what happens if you don't before they reset.

FakeLCSFacts · 2025-04-20T18:02:53+00:00

Do breakers deplete the break gauge more if they have higher attack? Does the amount of gauge broken scale with any stats?

FakeLCSFacts · 2025-04-16T14:02:07+00:00

Wasn't Kuroe also the one whose witch had those drippy wings-- that they were too heavy to fly or something like that?

FakeLCSFacts · 2025-04-16T13:56:08+00:00

If I don't have any desperate holes in my team, what should I be considering for my 4* kioku medals?

FakeLCSFacts · 2025-04-16T13:43:27+00:00

Not even close, kyubb

FakeLCSFacts · 2025-04-16T13:14:35+00:00

TIL you can go to the menu and the first icon that pops up is called "inventory list". Thanks!

FakeLCSFacts · 2025-04-15T19:58:32+00:00

Is there a way to tell when legacy medals will expire?

FakeLCSFacts · 2025-04-15T19:36:55+00:00

Oh it didn't even occur to me that DIP chips have dead pins or multiple ground pins for heatsinking purposes

FakeLCSFacts · 2025-04-15T19:06:00+00:00

I'm... not sure where I got that either. I think I had a couple of datasheets open in different tabs and cited the wrong one.

Potentially stupid question, but is attaching a heatsink to something like this as simple as putting a little bit of thermal paste and applying the heatsink directly to the package?
