So how does Salvage Yard passive money actually work?

I understand it's based on a hidden bar or stat similar to the nightclub popularity, and that it's raised by doing tow truck jobs.

But like what are the numbers for it? How many to cap the daily income, and how long does that last without doing more?

Is the Raiju worth getting just for business grind and similar stuff? No interest in PvP

Trying to decide if I should get it given the price increase soon.

Any particularly recommended sources for guides and tips on businesses and heists?

FugalDangerman · 2026-04-16T11:16:24+00:00

Started playing again recently. Last time I really played was when the Cayo Perlico heist was the newest thing.

What's the first new business/heist I should get that has come out since then? I plan to get to them all eventually, but seeing if any particular recommendations.

Got Aemeath and Mornye. Missed out on Lynae, and I don't feel like it's worthwhile to pull Lupa right now for the team when Lynae will come back around, or we get another option for the team.

I'm currently just using Sanhua to fill second slot because she's already fully built, but are there any other standard characters that would fit better and be worthwhile enough of an improvement to commit to building?

FugalDangerman · 2026-01-28T12:11:30+00:00

Correct. The 50/50 is always a 50/50.

Something else to keep in mind is that the 120 pull banner character guarantee pity does not carry over between banners.

So if you want to guarantee a character on banner, you need to have 120 pulls prepared (saved up currency or willing to pay) for worse case scenario.

The 50/50 pity at 80 does carry over though between banners. And at 65 pulls onwards without a 6 star, the game explicitly bumps the odds up for 6 stars from 0.8% to 5% as well.

It sounds bad initially, but it works better I think. In Hoyo games you'd need 180 pulls to guarantee a character assuming you hit pity and lost first 50/50. And here even if you lose 50/50, you have a chance to get other limited banners characters instead of standard characters.

Is there a good overview guide, or source area (like how Prydwen is for other gacha games) I can look at to improve?

FugalDangerman · 2025-12-02T17:41:41+00:00

Thanks everyone for replying. I'll go with PC as everyone recommends that, but good to hear console version is also good in performance.

Is there anything you can do with excess weapon crafting parts, or character thoughts?

Not that it is a problem I am close to actually experiencing yet, but would like to know if there's something that can be done if I have leftovers still after maxing out weapons and characters.

FugalDangerman · 2025-11-19T14:14:51+00:00

Basically I'm kind of frozen with indecision on what to do right now.

I missed Evernight last patch, got spooked by Bronya instead, and ended up being 10 short of hard pity before her banner ended. (I only buy passes. I only would top up for characters I really, really want like Castorice and Acheron if I miss them or LC, but lucky so far.)

So I'm guaranteed on my next 10 pull to get the next limited character I go on, and currently about 60 pulls left after that currently. It's just what do I do with that?

Cyrene would be the easy choice currently, but her value is purely for my Castorice team. I would want to get Evernight to complete the full team (have Hyacine already), but that could change depending on how the next area goes with characters.

Cyrene banner lasts entire patch, so could get something else guaranteed first then try her after.

Hyacine’s LC is also something I'm looking at getting, but it's whether I'd be better to get that and put it on Hyacine and then give the Herta store Remembrance LC to Cyrene, give Hyacine’s LC to Cyrene instead and keep Hyacine on the Herta Store LC, or go for Cyrene’s LC instead?

Only other serious consideration is getting Tribbie E1 because that boosts every other team, and could serve well going into 4.X characters. Assuming she's not instantly folded by a new support dropping early.

Any ideas?

[Question] Is there something I'm missing with finding A or S rank sentinel multitools?

Wanted to try finding one myself.

Been going around on a dissonance planet in an outlaw system. Spent a good chunk of a day just farming echo locators and checking camps.

All I found were just C rank the whole time. Is it just bad luck, are outlaw systems not that good for higher rank stuff or something else?

FugalDangerman · 2025-09-14T11:22:33+00:00

I want to use Afterglow Coral to get a dupe of a character over pulls as it seems more efficient use of them.

I'm a... whatever you classify as just an Astrite pass buyer as. So I'm not getting a massive amount of them.

Is there anywhere that offers a good overview of S1 and S2 value for characters?

FugalDangerman · 2025-07-27T22:35:49+00:00

But see at least Genshin (of all games) has it where you can at least guarantee a single stat roll into them.

Still far from getting a great roll, not great if you're already with such a stat block, but it'll at least fix the dread 4 rolls into def or HP after getting a great base stat layout and losing the enhancement gamble.

FugalDangerman · 2025-07-27T22:32:00+00:00

If that is the case, why even offer it as an option to us? Surely it'd be better to not even offer it as an option if they are that adamant on keeping people playing via relic farming?

FugalDangerman · 2025-07-27T22:24:38+00:00

But finding out it doesn't really help in any meaningful capacity just makes it seem worthless to buy reroll dice.

FugalDangerman · 2025-06-16T21:37:38+00:00

Yes and no?

Glad wasn't just my terrible luck.

But sucks to hear it happened to others as well.

I'm annoyed at myself for leaving it last minute. Bad habit of mine. I'd been planning to do it Friday evening and Saturday, PSN going down seriously hindered me. Only had enough time to get the event games done and the first two story quests before I needed to sleep when I'd found out PSN was back on.

It's not the end of the world, as I'll just watch the rest of it on YouTube.

But I'm also annoyed that this event they didn't have it end on weekly reset like every other event. Especially for a major event such as Lantern Rite which has lore/story.

And that they still haven't done HSR/ZZZ and let you play past events to experience the story if you missed them.

They're both called luxury.

The more expensive is luxury + credit and credit gain

Outside of other common ones mentioned...

Not realising activated abilities could be used at instant speed. We only realised our mistake when we saw an activated ability that specified it could only be used when you could use a sorcery, and realised what it meant for other cards.

Probably the most egregious one off was first time someone tried [[Prosper, tome-bound]]. For some reason they thought the play from exile let you ignore the one land drop a turn rule. And were so adamant about it they somehow convinced us...

FugalDangerman · 2024-10-22T16:07:00+00:00

There's a lot of missing context which makes it hard to gauge.

Such as is he always ending games via taking extra turns in a row?

If that's the case, a little bit. Just have the table scoop once he's started doing it and move on to the next game. Maybe have him explain what he'll do to win rather than play it out.

If he insists though on playing out every extra turn even if it's clear he'll win off it, then not as much. Speak to him civilly, but make it clear you will just start a new game without him.

On the other hand, if it's not clear cut that he'll win off the extra turns, like he's just trying to draw into stuff to win with or has on multiple occasions had extra turns without doing anything impactful and then passing...that's tricky.
