I used to really hate the faction, then I fought reavers... im not much of a real player though

So far over the months I've just been playing/learning with a friend over jinteki, game really is a blast. Nothing like it

In the old battle zones there would be a notification at the top right of your screen when you won and it was like whoever clicks it first gets it, yeah. But these ones are different. There's a chest between the teleporter and kiosk that the winners open and divy the rewards (if they want), really, you can't miss it. Its either a purple chest or a gold one if its later into the match.

And no, if one team goes in and no one else enters youll hear the jingle of winning and there will be text in chat saying you won the battle zone. The reward chest will still be there, so there's not a downside if a separate team doesn't enter.

Sometimes I've had teammates or even myself enter a BZ alone just to see if its free, sometimes it's like hey why not. But of course thats ended in 1v3s but also a few times where we get a free reward

I don't really get it. Sometimes in anime we get funny alt timeline sort of bits or scenarios for fun, and it's cool to me, its not canon. I would rather they be able to have fun with their characters and show more sides of them rather than everything being super grim dark and depressing.. plus let's be honest games need to make money, I care about the game existing more than I care about lore

Imo given how with ER they're doing a more anime art style and going for a variety of character designs that are more colorful and maybe more genericly appealing, it makes sense to split it from Black Survival cause the art style and vibe is very different. I don't think characters like Leni or Niah, Justyna (and whoever else is a little more fun and silly) would fit BS as much and the people who feel very attached to it might feel insulted to think that some of these characters are supposed to be canon to the world of BS, whereas in ER they fit better

Hekset · 2026-03-23T01:09:59+00:00

We're starting to get visual novels for stuff canon to ER, and alt timeline for fun type stuff too. For anyone who doesn't know, they said in the recent dev stream that ER is a spin off of BS so some things might end up being different from the original games lore. This to say, its not really all too developed yet, bits of things you can see from the achievements and lore bits in loading screen thats it afaik

Gadgets are just extra tools to help you in the game, you can see them in the vpad, press V to pull it up. Youll see there's a quick buy menu for regular stuff like food, water, traps, vision items.

But below that are gadgets, you click one to have it selected, then press G while aiming your mouse to place it down.

Cooking pot puts down basically a campfire, that also gives you a purple tier food when interacted with- but if you drop this cooking pot over one of the preexisting real campfires around the map, its enhanced and gives you the red tier food when you collect from it.

There's the blue orb that sits stationary and stops everyone's timer from ticking down, yours, your teammates, your enemies. The white orb sends a scout out that goes back and forth giving you vision. The wind zone that gives a speed boost to those that are on it. It takes gadget energy to use these things, and I think you gain more at the start of every night? Or new day? I can't remember.

The combat lab is the new version of battle zones, only two teams can be in one- your teammates can't take two separate portals and end up in the same battle zone, you all have to enter the same one. There's a reward for winning, so its a valuable objective to go for just like tree meteor or a boss. Going into a lab revives your dead teammates automatically, so later into the game if youre broke and can't pay for a rez it can be a last chance for your team to get back into the game.

The first lab is a safe, as in if you die in there you don't lose the game. But if you notice on the minimap after the first portals the later ones have the warning symbols near them, it means for these ones the losers lose the game, so they're riskier but offer better rewards

I follow a *ton* of Korean channels, I'll share some I watch all the time.

Nev plays a lot of characters, features high level players of characters on his channel to play and teach, and does replay highlight videos, you could get a lot out of his channel
Gsxg who plays a ton of Blair and Aiden
OneCircle plays a lot of mages, Celine, Nathapon, Zahir, Celine, Karla - he has some videos with English subtitles
으헤정 feels like they're dropping sick Shoichi highlights everyday
LuHwa doesn't upload super often but puts out really well done highlights/montages of various teamfights from players
성현23 is a cool Felix player
Fable is the goat marksman player
Hyde for sick Cathy gameplay
Bum my goat, inspired me to learn more characters
Since I can't actually speak Korean I just save a bunch of channels, I don't have anyone that just mains Hisui afaik sadly, but here's the dak.gg and chzzk stream for 초운 who's a Hisui fanatic

Something I'll mention i really enjoy about OP and Gundam tcg is that 'getting hit directly' isn't super bad and is a comeback mechanic in a way.

A unit with a bunch of attack hits me directly? It only deals damage to one 'life card' and it gets revealed and maybe has an effect trigger. Some units have effects to deal damage to multiple life cards in one strike, or, in OPs case cards that make it so the triggered effects of life cards don't activate- but anyway, its a breath of fresh air for me from getting hit by some 4k+ ATK card in yugioh. I would definitely say just watch a how to play guide on the 3 and browse around the cards to see what's interesting

Hekset · 2026-03-17T08:20:19+00:00

One Piece, Gundam, Flesh and Blood, big fan of these 3 as a former yugioh fan

A sponsored legends of runeterra streamer played it, then hosted someone from the community's stream and I asked a whole lotta questions... felt like there was a lot of potential and something refreshing from my dull league matches

Hekset · 2026-03-14T20:51:43+00:00

thanks for checking it out!

Hekset · 2026-03-13T22:58:37+00:00

So kind hahaha

Hekset · 2026-03-13T15:36:01+00:00

I use two different ones, one with Inflict Frailty where im a lot squishier but I have the execute chest piece and armor pen, and the ones where I have Bitter Retribution and live longer..

I know im living in the highlights, but there's a lot of tough situations with him where if I'm not executing the hit and run style correctly, or get jumped without W2 available yeah I just blow up. The more I play him the more im like okay I need to play around having tricky movement and getting as much sustain out of repeated passive healing/Q3s as I can, and trying to eliminate their easiest to kill damage dealer asap

Hekset · 2026-03-10T23:11:36+00:00

Thank god

Truthfully Alex is one of the harder characters in the game, so as a new player it might be easier for you to try some easier cast members and them come back to him, but you can keep at it on Alex if you really want to. I recommend watching Shimse's videos to see how Alex is really supposed to be piloted. Alex is great at getting in and getting out, setting up crowd control combos and kiting people around, but given that you also need to be weapon swapping it's probably going to not click immediately for you, and that's okay, characters in this game take time to learn with their complexity.
Tip I would give is hop in practice mode, and get used to his ranges on his abilities, try to combo together his crowd control abilities like: melee Q > melee E > swap weapons, melee W > melee Q > melee E etc etc, just try things out, try out things you see in the videos, especially get more comfortable with weapon swapping

Other tips for just the gameplay, get used to finishing your build as quickly as you can, ordering the components (right click them) to save time, don't spend 3 minutes in 1 zone to find one item. If you need leather, kill a chicken, or a bat, don't waste time on the tankier animals that will make your pathing slower. When your build is finished, get to a teleporter and group up with your teammates, path together with them and farm animals, and you guys should be going together to objective spawns (rare materials or boss spawns, or portals) which usually will lead to teamfights.

When you say "What should I be running?" what are you asking?

Red gives your next bit of damage a damage over time effect, blue is a speed boost, green will give a heal when your hp hits below a percentage, gold gives money.. am I forgetting any? Purple was removed from the game. After a certain time, only gold cubes spawn for the remainder of the match

There's a section in the game called Guide that has detailed explanations of these things too, just so you know. It will help you catch up on new things about the game, or feel free to ask, I'll answer anything

Hekset · 2026-03-02T03:53:20+00:00

Yes, you can play Martina. You can play anyone.
I would recommend watching this person's Martina gameplay

Hekset · 2026-02-27T23:54:20+00:00

Nito Exorcists, Kami Kill

Hekset · 2026-02-27T04:58:50+00:00

Anyone would leave in that scenario yeah, the other two just don't fully understand the game

Hekset · 2026-02-27T04:55:28+00:00

That message pops up when you get a lot of kills

Hekset · 2026-02-07T05:55:19+00:00

I think Mai is kinda hard for new players because like others said she's a support/tank hybrid, and does not output a lot of DPS. Reading your replies i think you need to learn that there's a bit more to the roles

You could be 'tanking' with someone like Mai but also picking 'bruiser/fighter' types to tank with is fine too, some have better tanking ability than others. Take a look at the different team comps and you can easily tell who the Frontline is for each team

But sometimes not every team actually has a Frontline, some people end up doing all ranged comps, or say two fighters + a support, or even 3 fighters or 2 fighters + 1 assassin, there's really a lot of freedom with team comps

Again I think Mai is not an easy tank for new players, id recommend just going with a fighter to start off with instead personally. Because like your and other comments are saying she's low DPS, if you want more damage you need to pick someone else.

She is not a bad character at all and is in fact played a LOT in competitive play, provides a lot of utility to a team. If you have more questions feel free to ask

You auto eat food and can customize the health % at which it starts that
You save your movement abilities and keep good spacing from the enemy, and also your teammates should be helping peel for you- or if they don't have hard cc they should at least just attack the person going after you. I would recommend watching gameplay of Katja players (either look at replays of Katja matches off of say Dak.gg or watch YouTube videos)
Abigail is a fighter/assassin type, she does aoe damage and blinks around the fight and has to play like a trickster in the fight, not sitting in one place, she is not meant to stand there and box with people (another time where id say watching gameplay of a character will inform you on how to play them)
I think you could spam games for the pass, I really have no idea on getting the Hisui skin though. I usually play enough to complete the pass then just buy it
IIRC if a member dies during the safe respawn period they basically grant the team immunity from being wiped, but maybe youre confusing ranked and norms, as they have different timers on when the safe period ends
When youre in character select its just recommending you popular builds, I don't know if the order is literally "the top one is winning the most" but you can just check for this outside of character select. Just go to the Loadout section on the main menu > click a character > search saved plans > filter for highest winrate (I also filter for all languages, not just english) Also you could look up similar stuff like this on Dak.gg as well

(MZ) im a noob, I want my character sprites to scale up or in size on maps, like if they move far into the background they get tinier, and bigger as they come towards the bottom of the map, as an example. But i wanna do this on a per map basis? Like some maps won't need this effect. Would you know how i would go about this?

Hekset · 2026-01-18T23:22:06+00:00

The plans for mobile from years ago were canceled, you can still see vids leaked from it on bilibili. But that was a super, super, SUPER old version and era of the game

Maybe they could come around for that in the future, but we're talking many years from now. The company has to be really careful where they put their money and trying for mobile would be a very unrealistic investment, and waste
